    In the first offense of the second quarter, the Oklahoma City Thunder's small forward Kevin Durant broke through with the ball and went directly into the Indiana Pacers' paint area after getting rid of Rudy Fernandez's defense.  At this moment, Indiana Pacers power forward Tyler Hansbrough moved quickly and blocked Kevin Durant, and then the two fell heavily to the floor at the same time.

    "I guess referee Joe Crawford will call Tyler Hansbrough's blocking foul." Game commentator Mark Jackson said.  []

    However, the fact was beyond Mark Jackson's expectation. Although the referee Joe Crawford did blow his whistle, he did not point it at Taylor Hans lying on the floor after blowing the whistle.  Blue instead pointed to Kevin Durant next to him.

    "Offensive foul?" After seeing Joe Crawford's penalty, even Reggie Miller next to Mark Jackson couldn't believe his eyes.

    "This is bad." Mark Jackson continued, "This is Kevin Durant's second foul in this game. Although it is not a foul trouble, Kevin Durant is  The Oklahoma City Thunder's leading scorer, an early foul will affect Kevin Durant's playing time, which is not good news for the Oklahoma City Thunder."

    Although the big screen in Conseco Arena has been replaying the slow motion of Kevin Durant knocking down Tyler Hansbrough just now, and it looks like Tyler Hansbrough was indeed  The defensive foul was more suspected, but referee Joe Crawford still did not change his decision.  Although Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Scott Brooks raised objections to the referee on duty, it did not change the result of Joe Crawford's penalty. Coach Scott Brooks had to call Kevin Du  Rand comes off as a substitute.

    "Russell Westbrook's performance in the first quarter was not good and he could only sit on the bench and slowly adjust his condition, while Kevin Durant had to come off the court to rest. Oklahoma City  The Oklahoma City Thunder can only rely on James Harden alone to catch up with the seven-point difference. Although this is the regular lineup of the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first half of the second quarter, they want to catch up with that seven-point difference.  A seven-point difference is indeed quite difficult." Mark Jackson said while sighing.

    After Kevin Durant left the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder only relied on James Harden to attack the city, and James Harden completely controlled the ball.  However, James Harden, who was a guest point guard, missed two consecutive shots. The Indiana Pacers took this opportunity to expand the point difference, leading the Oklahoma City Thunder by nine points with a score of 30:21.

    Seeing the team falling further and further behind, Russell Westbrook couldn't sit still, jumped up from his chair and came to the head coach Scott Brooks.

    ¡°Coach, please put me on the court!¡± Russell Westbrook said to coach Scott Brooks.

    Coach Scott Brooks looked up at the time and said to Russell Westbrook: "It's not time for you to play yet!"

    ¡°But if we continue like this, we will fall further and further behind!¡± Russell Westbrook said eagerly.

    Coach Scott Brooks frowned slightly.

    "Please let me play!" Russell Westbrook begged again.

    "Although Russell didn't seem to be in very good condition tonight, at least he could still contain the opponent's defense, and at the same time he didn't have any foul trouble." Coach Scott Brooks thought to himself, "And  Even if Russell's condition is not good, it is impossible not to score all the time, and the threat on the offensive end remains undiminished. Now that Kevin can't play, James Harden can't support himself alone, maybe sending Russell is an approach worth trying.  "

    Thinking of this, coach Scott Brooks nodded slowly and agreed to Russell Westbrook's request.  Russell Westbrook immediately took off his sports coat and came to the technical table to prepare to play.

    On the court, Oklahoma City Thunder backup point guard "Old Fish" Derek Fisher saw Russell Westbrook preparing to play, and decisively chose to foul, allowing the player to run at high speed.  The ball in the middle stopped.  Then the buzzer sounded in Conseco Arena, and Russell Westbrook replaced Derek Fisher and returned to the court again.

    Sitting on the bench of the Indiana Pacers, Xu Nuo saw Russell Westbrook come back on the court and couldn't help but look up at the timer above the backboard.  "It's less than three minutes into the second quarter, and Russell Westbrook actually came on early." Xu Nuo frowned.Said the head.

    "I guess the Oklahoma City Thunder had to replace Russell Westbrook in advance in order to chase points." Danny Granger, who was sitting next to Xu Nuo, said, "After all, this game affects the championship.  It's never a good thing to be too far behind in a crucial game. And with Kevin Durant unavailable, only Russell Westbrook can provide support for James Harden."

    Xu Nuo said nothing more, just turned his head and glanced at the head coach Larry Brown not far away.

    Danny Granger smiled and said, "I guess it will be difficult for you to get a chance to play in these few minutes." Danny Granger said to Xu Nuo.

    "But my task tonight is to defend Russell Westbrook. Since Russell Westbrook has returned to the court, why not send me on the court?" Xu Nuo said.

    "Let's take a look at Darren's performance first." Danny Granger said still smiling.

    After all, Darren Collison's defense is still a little worse than promised. Although Russell Westbrook is in poor condition, it is more than enough to deal with Darren Collison's defense.  After Russell Westbrook scored four points in a row, the Oklahoma City Thunder rewritten the score to 27:35, and the two teams were still eight points apart.

    Coach Larry Brown turned his head and looked at Promise.  "Get ready to play, promise!" coach Larry Brown said.

    So, about two minutes after Russell Westbrook returned to the court, Promise also stepped onto the court again.

    "Sure enough, it's here!" Coach Scott Brooks looked at the promise of playing again and put his hand on his forehead slightly anxiously.  Coach Scott Brooks knew very well that the reason why Russell Westbrook performed poorly in the first quarter was precisely because of the tight defense he promised.  Now that Russell Westbrook has just begun to regain his touch and promises to return to the court again, Russell Westbrook has to face a severe test again.

    Maybe it¡¯s because Xu Nuo¡¯s defense is really good, or maybe it¡¯s because Russell Westbrook began to have a psychological shadow when facing Xu Nuo. Since Xu Nuo came on the court, Russell Westbrook¡¯s performance began to go silent again.  With O.J. Mayo's breakthrough layup, the Indiana Pacers at home already led the away Oklahoma City Thunder by 11 points, 41:30.

    "The Indiana Pacers maintained a double-digit lead, and even with Russell Westbrook and James Harden on the court, the Oklahoma City Thunder struggled to catch up.  Difficult," Reggie Miller said.

    As soon as Reggie Miller's words fell, Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Scott Brooks began to make personnel adjustments, and the team's top scorer Kevin Durant once again appeared.

    "Now we can only rely on Kevin Durant." Mark Jackson said.

    Just when Kevin Durant returned to the court, coach Larry Brown also began to mobilize his troops. Except for O.J. Mayo, the other four players were all replaced as main players.

    Kevin Durant hit an outside three-pointer immediately after coming on the court. Danny Granger responded with a mid-range shot, but Kevin Durant once again hit an outside three-pointer.  The long-distance shot helped the team narrow the point difference to less than ten points.

    "He is indeed Kevin Durant!" Mark Jackson sighed, "Dare to stand up and score when the team needs it most. This is the real superstar, the leader who leads the team to victory!"

    "But now they are still lagging behind." Xu Nuo said with a sneer.

    Even though coach Scott Brooks kept Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden on the court, the Oklahoma City Thunder still couldn't close the gap.  to within five points.  Russell Westbrook couldn't score another point against the promised defense, and James Harden wasn't shooting very well.  Under the promised passing organization, the home team Indiana Pacers' offense went smoothly, leading the Oklahoma City Thunder by 12 points with a score of 53:41 entering the halftime break.

    "Twelve points behind the opponent at halftime, the Oklahoma City Thunder's game situation is quite unfavorable!" game commentator Reggie Miller said.

    "I believe that coach Scott Brooks will definitely make tactical adjustments during the halftime break to address the problems that the team encountered in the first half," Mark Jackson said immediately. "There is still a second half of the game, let's talk about it now.  It¡¯s too early to decide. Who can win this game and take the initiative in the series? Let¡¯s wait for the battle in the second half of the game!¡±
