Chapter 500

On June 2018, 6, the eyes of the entire NBA circle, and even the basketball circle, were focused on Oklahoma City.The Chesapeake Energy Arena was packed an hour and a half before the game.All Thunder fans put on the city's dark blue jerseys as usual.Throughout the Chesapeake Energy Arena, it's hard to see other colors.The fans in this city will always support their team with this uniform action.

"OKC!"

"OKC!"

"OKC!"

……

When the performance before the opening ended, the familiar slogan once again rang through the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena.

An Luo and others had already returned to the locker room before the performance, and Donovan was making final arrangements for the game.Their preparations these days are about to usher in the testing stage.

"Guys, are you ready?"

When he was about to play, Westbrook led An Luo and others to form a circle in the player tunnel.Everyone put their hands together and their foreheads pressed together, so that each other could feel the breath of others.

An Luo could feel that Westbrook was very excited now.From the time he came to the arena, you can see the difference in him.He didn't deliberately pack himself up in a special fashion like before, and he was relatively quiet in the locker room.It seems that all the energy is saved there and used in the game.

No wonder Westbrook is so excited.After six years, he and Thunder came to this step again!A championship looks within reach!He has been waiting for this day for too long!Especially when Durant won the championship and the FMVP trophy, he really felt a little uncomfortable.

When the players played, James received great courtesy.The entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was filled with applause.Looking at the entire NBA now, I am afraid that only he has such qualifications.

After a short warm-up, the game officially started.

Adams and TT scrimmage.All the Thunder fans in the Chesapeake Energy Arena stood up.In every home game in this arena, they use this method to cheer for their team.Over the years, nothing has changed.

The basketball was patted by Adams to Paul George.The latter dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line. Facing James, he was a little unspeakably excited.Without calling for cover, Paul George prepared to hit one himself.After his continuous crotch dribble, he suddenly accelerated and squeezed from the left side of the opponent.Although James did not stop his breakthrough in the first place, he has been following Paul George closely.Finally, find the right time and give the other party a big hat!
Although the basketball was shot out of the boundary by James, it can be seen from the defense this time that James is in a very good state.He took off a little later than Paul George, but his timing was accurate.As soon as the opponent dialed the ball out, his palm arrived!

Paul George shook his head helplessly, he knew how powerful James was.He knows this better than everyone in the Thunder.But he still couldn't restrain his emotions.I thought that a few years had passed, and James was getting old.Who knew, the previous games were not flashbacks at all!
With 9 seconds left in the clock, the Thunder sent the baseline ball and reorganized the offense.However, this time the attack was still in vain.After Westbrook made a circle on the left side, he played a pick-and-roll with Adams.The two rushed to the penalty area from the left side at the same time. Westbrook attracted the defense and passed the ball comfortably to Adams, but the latter did not make the ball in the end.

Love grabbed the rebound and handed it to George Hill.But after the latter took the ball beyond the three-point line, it was handed over to James.In the previous game, George Hill's performance was not too good.At least, it didn't meet people's expectations of him.In fact, after coming to the Cavaliers, Hill's offensive ability has indeed dropped a lot.But his defense is still online.In the previous round, he was the one who made Westbrook give up the idea of ​​shooting.

James took the ball before the top of the arc, then dunked the ball around his waist, and directed the other players of the Cavaliers to move with his left hand.He's enjoying playing this way more and more now!After all, it saves energy more.At this time, JR got a vacancy in the bottom corner on the right.James has quick eyesight and quick hands, and he stuffed the ball directly.However, after JR received the ball, he didn't make a direct shot.One is because An Luo bypassed the opponent's cover and posted it; the other is that James has a better chance.It turned out that after James passed the ball, he didn't stay in place, but moved towards the left side of the free throw line.At this time, the center of gravity of Thunder's defense was biased to the right.Because JR, Love and Hill are all there.

JR made a posture to shoot a three-pointer, but finally passed the ball to James.The level of this cross pass is quite high, JR's landing point is a little earlier, and James can comfortably receive it without slowing down.After that, he rushed directly to the basket and scored the ball against Adams.

2:0, the Cavaliers in the away game took the lead, and James scored the first point of this trip to the finals.

The Thunder attacked again, and the applause and slogans in the audience became more intense.They are still standing!However, for this game, if these fans want to sit down, they have to wait.

An Luo got a chance from outside the left three-point line.He got rid of the Cavaliers' defense under the double screen of Adams and Robertson.After receiving the ball, he shot immediately without any hesitation.

"boom!"

It seems that the arc of the basketball flying out is very positive, but the strength is a bit stronger.

After James grabbed the rebound, he turned and ran to the other end of the court.His speed is not fast, but he has great momentum.On the left side of the three-point line, he immediately accelerated after a short pause, exerted a sudden force, squeezed Paul George and rushed to the free throw line.The latter followed suit.He also wanted to give James a big shot.But James didn't give him that chance.After squeezing past Paul George, James made a European step past Adams, who was coming up from the defense. With a step on his right foot and a step on his left foot, he rose up from the ground, held the ball high in his right hand, and dunked the ball into the basket .

4:0, still scored by James, the Cavaliers started very smoothly.

But then, An Luo's mid-range shot made all Oklahoma fans sit down.

Westbrook still used Adams' cover to go in, but the opponent's defense quickly caught up, and Westbrook could only divide the ball.After An Luo received the ball, he saw the opponent posting it, and made it clear that he was not allowed to shoot a three-pointer.So, he started directly, raised his left arm, clicked, squeezed into the three-point line and pulled it up to throw the ball.

"Shh!"

The ball went in! 4:2, the show begins!
