778 George explodes!
778 George explodes!
The second quarter has ended, and the team's performance at this point was quite good. Regardless of the circumstances, he is undoubtedly the team's point guard. As long as he's there, the team's scoring foundation won't be a problem.
"He truly deserves to be called a god-like figure among point guards."
Just as the team was still hesitating about whether to let Curry rest at this point, Curry hit two consecutive three-pointers, bringing the game difference to 20 points.
This 20-point difference will basically allow Su Hao, who already had some injuries, to get a complete rest.
The Thunder are now bewildered. They had prepared a very detailed offense, but for some reason, their performance is just so-so, which is completely different from what they had planned.
Su Hao is currently resting and hasn't played. If he had continued playing in the second half, it's safe to say that winning this game would have been impossible.
In the third quarter, Durant was still on the court. His first possession was an individual offensive play. His individual offensive output is now roughly one-fifth of the team's level; for every 100 points the team scores, he gets about 25. That's his individual ability. Many people have said he could be among the top three scorers in history.
Curry didn't give him that chance. After a crossover, he passed the ball to Su Hao, who was waiting under the basket. Su Hao took the ball and lightly jumped, but relying on his very strong physical qualities, he slammed the ball down. This is the quality of a top basketball player.
"Isn't that a little unbelievable?"
It's rare for someone weighing 270-280 pounds to fly that high, but Yang Yi is one of those people who can do it because he has a unique physical ability in the league.
Su Hao scored 20 points in this game, and his dominance in the third quarter was unparalleled. No team could have the confidence to continue playing after seeing such a performance.
The Thunder adjusted their lineup at this point, switching to a small-ball lineup, with Ibaka out and Robertson in their place.
"This is a small-ball lineup. They're going to go for a small-ball lineup. Their goal is very simple: to improve their offensive efficiency through speed. In any case, it's a very feasible approach. Trying it is better than having no effect."
Su Hao went to rest. After playing for two minutes, he realized that the fall he had just taken was quite serious. In addition, he had been resting and his touch was off. He probably only had the best touch under the basket.
They paired him with George, who became the power forward at this point because no one could do that position better than him. The opposing team was also using a smaller lineup, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to take on the power forward position at this time.
As he spoke, he received the ball and then took a jump shot near the center line.
"This guy is incredibly strong, did you see that? He was able to show us why he's been the leader of this team for a while with such a perfect jump shot at this moment."
