Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In order to allow his star Kevin Durant to have enough physical strength for the final battle, Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Scott Brooks put Kevin on the bench in the minutes before the fourth quarter.  ¡¤ Durant was placed on the bench.  It¡¯s just that point guard Russell Westbrook is young and energetic and insists on playing. Coach Scott Brooks has no other choice but to agree to Russell Westbrook¡¯s request and send Russell Westbrook to play.  Enter Brooke.

    As a result, the Oklahoma City Thunder's field lineup changed to point guard Russell Westbrook, shooting guard James Harden, small forward Thabo Sefolosha, and power forward Nick  Collison and center Cole Aldridge, of which backup center Cole Aldridge is just a cannon fodder and is not important at all.  Coach Larry Brown planned tactics based on this, using substitute center JJ Hixon's offense to score consecutive points.  After JJ Hickson broke through Cole Aldridge's defense and dunked with the ball, the Indiana Pacers already led the Oklahoma City Thunder by nine points, 80:71!  []

    "Even if our inside strength is inferior to our opponents, we can completely rely on our outside to deal with our opponents. Whether it's Harden or Russell, they have enough strength to defeat each other!" Derrick, the team's veteran point guard  Fisher suggested to coach Scott Brooks.

    The reason why coach Scott Brooks sent Cole Aldridge and Nick Collison on the court was to make the team based on defense, hoping to score through defensive counterattacks.  However, the team's defense was poor, and there was no way to talk about defensive counterattacks. Suddenly, the players on the court seemed not to know how to play.  After Derek Fisher made suggestions, coach Scott Brooks made decisive adjustments and shifted the focus of the game from defense to offense.

    After coach Scott Brooks made adjustments, the results were quickly achieved. Two backcourt players, Russell Westbrook and James Harden, assisted each other to score. The Oklahoma City Thunder  Chasing four points in a row.  However, soon, O.J. Mayo broke through James Harden's defense on the offensive end and reached the Oklahoma City Thunder inside for a layup.

    "No matter how good your offense is, if the defense can't keep up, it will be very difficult to reverse the game!" Xu Nuo, sitting under the court, said with his hands folded.

    Just after O.J. Mayo scored a layup, coach Scott Brooks made a decisive substitution and sent star Kevin Durant to the court in advance, replacing point guard Russell Westbrook.  Regarding the substitution of coach Scott Brooks, Xu Nuo did not understand the purpose of coach Scott Brooks for a while.

    "Coach Scott Brooks replaced Kevin Durant and replaced Russell Westbrook. As a result, didn't they no longer have any point guard sitting on the court?" Indiana Pacers  Coach Brian Shaw, the team's first assistant coach, said this to coach Larry Brown.

    "No," coach Larry Brown shook his head, "it's not like they don't have a point guard."

    "Is James Harden sent to serve as a guest point guard?" Coach Brian Shaw asked.

    Coach Larry Brown nodded slightly. After a moment, Coach Larry Brown spoke again: "However, this should not be their direct purpose."

    ¡°Oh?¡± Coach Brian Xiao frowned in confusion and looked towards the court.  Soon, Coach Brian Shaw looked at Coach Larry Brown again in surprise.

    "Are they going to use Thabo Sefolosha to defend Irvington?" Coach Brian Shaw asked with a hint of surprise.

    "That's right!" Coach Larry Brown nodded and said seriously.

    Hearing this, Xu Nuo turned his attention to the court again and couldn't help but look worried.

    "Thapo Sefolosha is one of the best perimeter defense experts in the Thunder. If he is allowed to defend Irvington, then Irvington's offense will be severely restricted!" Xu Nuo said worriedly.

    "It doesn't matter," Danny Granger, who was sitting next to Xu Nuo, patted Xu Nuo's shoulder gently, "I think Irvington and the others will definitely think of a solution to the problem!"

    In the Indiana Pacers' first offense after coach Scott Brooks was replaced, O.J. Mayo's ball-handling breakthrough was intercepted by Thabo Sefolosha, and the Oklahoma City Thunder took advantage of the defense.  Counterattack quickly scored two points.  George Hill took the ball from Rudy Fernandez, faced James Harden's full-court defense, and dribbled forward as hard as he could.

    At this moment, George Hill suddenly discovered that Rudy Fernandez was already at his best shooting spot - outside the three-point line in the bottom corner, so?George Hill passed the ball directly to Rudy Fernandez.  But just as Rudy Fernandez received the ball, Kevin Durant was already in front of him.  Rudy Fernandez had to pass the ball again, and the ball came to O.J. Mayo at the top of the three-point arc.

    "Hey" Seeing O.J. Mayo receiving the ball, Thapo Sefolosha actually showed a smile on his face, and he was in front of O.J. Mayo in an instant!

    "It's that guy Sabo Sefolosha again!" Xu Jiutian Astronomy Nest!

    "It's a three-pointer!" the on-site commentator Reggie Miller said loudly. "Facing outside defense expert Thabo Sefolosha, this time O.J. Mayo did not choose to break through with the ball by himself, but used the pass to  The ball to help teammates score! Now the Indiana Pacers' lead is back to eight points, George Hill's three-pointer is really a key three-pointer!"

    Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Scott Brooks looked solemn and stood up to request a timeout.  Coach Scott Brooks understands that this time has reached a critical stage that determines the outcome of the game. If the team still cannot reduce the point difference between the two teams to within five points after this timeout, then the team's  The situation will become precarious.

    ¡°The final battle is finally coming!¡± Mark Jackson, another on-site commentator, said solemnly.

    "Yes!" Reggie Miller nodded and said, "As the final battle approaches, the pressure on the shoulders of the players from both teams will increase. At this time, the game has completely become a matter of players from both teams.  In a battle of willpower, if one side can withstand the pressure, then they will perform even better and win the final victory of the game!"

    Amid the commentary by the two game commentators, Reggie Miller and Mark Jackson, the players from both teams returned to the court again.  After the timeout, both teams sent out all their main players and were ready for the final decisive battle with their opponents!

    Xu Nuo raised his head and glanced at the timer above the backboard, and saw that the timer showed that there were still seven minutes and thirty-seven seconds before the end of the game.  Then Xunuo looked at the scoreboard again, and when he saw the score of 85:77, he suddenly felt much more relaxed.

    "After all, the advantage is still on our side." Xu Nuo said to himself.

    At this time, power forward David West had just passed by Xu Nuo. After hearing Xu Nuo's words, he turned his head to look at Xu Nuo.

    "Don't take it lightly, boy!" David West said to Xu Nuo, "If you relax a little bit, let alone an eight-point lead, or an eighteen-point lead, it is very likely that in an instant  It disappeared completely!"

    Xu Nuo nodded silently and said nothing more, but he became more vigilant again.

    After the game restarted, the Oklahoma City Thunder, who were on the court at the same time, launched a massive attack. Kevin Durant was the first to attack, and James Harden followed up with a mid-range shot.  However, the Indiana Pacers, who had lost four points in a row, relied on the promised two consecutive assists to quickly score four points in a row. The eight-point difference between the two teams remained.  After Russell Westbrook hit a long outside three-pointer, Xu Nuo broke through with the ball and broke into the Thunder inside for a layup.  91:84, the Indiana Pacers at home lead the away Oklahoma City Thunder by seven points.

    "The time left in the game is getting shorter and shorter. Without any major problems, the Pacers have almost secured the victory of this game!" said Derrick Williams, who was sitting in the stands beside the court.  .

    As Derrick Williams said, although Kevin Durant led the Oklahoma City Thunder to counterattack in the last five minutes of the game, they still lost this third Finals game 96:107.  .  Xu Nuo scored 17 points and 13 assists in this game. The number of assists once again topped the team, and his scoring was second only to the team's top scorer Danny Granger's 26 points.

    After winning this game, the Indiana Pacers have also rewritten the finals series score to 2:1, overtaking the score after falling behind 0:1.  The Indiana Pacers still have two home games next, and it can be said that the situation for winning the championship is excellent.

    After the game, Derrick Williams deliberately ran to the door of the Indiana Pacers locker room to wait for the promise.  When Xu Nuo walked out of the locker room, Derrick Williams slapped Xu Nuo on the shoulder.

    ¡°If I hadn¡¯t seen your performance with my own eyes, it would be hard for anyone to believe that you would play such high-level data in the NBA Finals!¡± Derrick Williams said loudly.

    Xu Nuo smiled, "If one day you can appear in the NBA Finals, I believe your performance will be better." Xu Nuo said to Derrick Williams.

    "Just wait, buddy!" Derrick Williams said confidently, "One day, I will beat you in the finals!"

    "Okay, I'm waiting for your challenge!" Xu Nuo said with a smile.

    After saying that, Xu Nuo gently put his arm around Ellen Page's shoulders, and the three of them walked out of the arena together.  In the player parking garage outside Conseco Arena, Promise's parents were already waiting there.
