O'Neal and Barkley deserve to be NBA veterans, and they deserve to be former NBA superstars who can earn millions in salary from TNT.
Their analysis of Shen Huan was very reliable.
When the second quarter started, Shen Huan stood back on his usual right side.
Seeing this scene, Westbrook clenched his fists and looked at Shen Huan with complicated eyes.
He knew that this was because Shen Huan let him go and did not kill them all.
But this also means that in Shen Huan's eyes, he is not an important opponent at all.
You gave up your pressure and defense in the first quarter. Doesn’t this explain it
Westbrook was very unwilling.
But what can he do
Take the initiative to change positions and go to the other side to face Shen Huan
When he thought about playing 8 minutes in the first quarter but only scoring 0 points, Westbrook's heart went cold. How dare he ask for trouble again
He hates Shen Huan for looking down on him, but he doesn't have the strength to take revenge. This is Westbrook's complicated thoughts now.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
In the NBA, everything depends on your ability. If you don't have that ability, of course you won't get the respect of others.
In the next game, Westbrook did not collapse.
This player's mentality has always been very tenacious. Even if he was blocked in the first quarter, he played the game seriously in the second quarter.
However, the huge gap in strength cannot be eliminated by him alone.
In this game, Shen Huan showed his strength in the first quarter, but at the beginning of the second quarter, Kobe and Iverson took over the game.
Iverson couldn't restrain Westbrook on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, Westbrook also couldn't stop Iverson from scoring.
It seems that Iverson has returned to the age of 30. Although he no longer has the sharpest breakthroughs in direction, he has reached the level of proficiency in terms of experience and skills.
Westbrook is already a superstar in the league, but in these aspects, he is still far behind Iverson.
Throughout the second quarter, Westbrook scored 17 points, while Iverson also scored 17 points.
You know, Iverson is 41 years old this year, and Westbrook is only 28 years old.
The two of them are equivalent to "duizi".
But no one can stop the old Kobe Bryant - Andre Robertson of the All-Defensive Second Team follows Shen Huan no matter what the situation, and it is impossible to defend him.
So Kobe scored 22 points, setting a new high in a single quarter for him in the past two years!
Such a score directly made the score of Lakers VS Thunder after halftime become 75:51, and the Thunder lost by a full 24 points.
Shen Huan hardly took any shots in the second quarter, but made a lot of steals and passing assists, giving all offensive opportunities to Kobe and Iverson.
However, this section of the game was enjoyable to watch.
Because they saw the smooth cooperation between Shen Huan, Iverson and Kobe last year.
Once Shen Huan sacrifices his equal points, the game will have a coordinated excitement, and every goal will make people cheer and scream.
The fans present were satisfied, and the entire audience in front of the TV also became excited.
It's kind of like the All-Star Game.
If we get to the Western Conference Finals or the Finals, in order to win, there won't be so many tricks. It will definitely be based on scoring and defeating the enemy.
This kind of competition is tense and exciting, but it is not so beautiful.
…
During the halftime break, Shen Huan threw his jersey and sneakers into the stands as usual.
Since last season, the boy has given away jerseys and shoes not once or twice in a game.
After each game, he would give them away, and often he would also give an additional set—although he had not worn them, Shen Huan had signed them in advance, which was considered a very good gift.
This has become Shen Huan's repertoire when playing.
Some players still want to change jerseys with Shen Huan, but usually Shen Huan will ignore them.
If it wasn't for the equal player, Shen Huan wouldn't give it away at all.
During last year's Western Conference Finals, Curry and Thompson successfully exchanged jerseys with Shen Huan, so that Shen Huan could only change one set for them during one break.
…
When we came back after halftime, the situation still hadn't changed at all.
No matter how hard Westbrook worked, Iverson, who was also having a blast today, kept scoring against him, and the scores of the two rose alternately.
Westbrook felt very ashamed to be pursued by such a veteran, but he did not dare to switch to the other side.
nonsense.
On the other side is Shen Huan. Not only can Westbrook not be able to stop Shen Huan from scoring, his own score will be equal to zero indefinitely. Do you think he is willing
"Buzz!"
As the buzzer sounded, the game ended with a disparity of 152:107 points.
The Lakers have won three consecutive games and are only one step away from entering the semi-finals.
Shen Huan scored 32 points, 10 rebounds, 23 assists, 11 steals, and 10 blocks. He once again created a five-double and won the best of the game.
Westbrook scored 37 points, 6 rebounds, and 7 assists. He was the Thunder's most eye-catching player.
No matter how much the media and fans support the Thunder, they no longer have any hope.
Shen Huan's power is already scary enough, but now the Lakers' two elder brothers have exploded, how can we resist!
ESPN's Kenny Smith still used classic comments to summarize the game.
“There was actually no suspense about this game from the beginning, it was just a dream spun by Thunder supporters and Shen Huan’s opponents.
It's all a joke that Shen Huan's strength and dominance have declined. It doesn't exist in my eyes. Shen Huan is still the strongest superstar in the NBA.
But in the third game, although the MVP was still Shen Huan, Iverson and Kobe still gave me a huge surprise.
Their playing time exceeded 32 minutes. Not only did their playing time reach a new high, but their scoring was even more dazzling, as if they were back ten years ago.
The two veterans scored a combined 75 points, which seemed to determine the outcome of this game.
Their outstanding state made me forget their age, and if they can perform like this from time to time in subsequent games, it will be even more of a nightmare for the Lakers' enemies!
Of course, for the Lakers, the return of Iverson and Kobe is a huge surprise.
With the help of the two of them and Howard, Shen Huan's second NBA championship ring and second FMVP this year are still guaranteed.
Dear fans, you are happy! Being able to watch such a wonderful game, being able to witness the miracle of watching one less game! ! "
