Start without the ball

Chapter 259

Li Haoyu led Hood to the low position on the left side, fighting for the position with all his strength, and finally received the basketball one step outside the three-second zone.

Sensing the defense with his back, Hood prepared to fight in a normal posture.

The corner of Li Haoyu's mouth rose, and he dribbled vigorously to fight back.

boom.

Dribbled the ball and fought with all his strength, Hood was powerless to resist, Li Haoyu took every step, and his movements were just right, leaving no chance for Hood to make a foul.

When he was about to reach the three-second zone, Li Haoyu fought with all his strength, but Hood retreated a long way because he was unprepared.

With the space to shoot, Li Haoyu turned to the line and hooked easily.

shuh~
Hollow into the net, 7 to 3.

Huo Nan: "Li Haoyu's strength overwhelmed Hood, and his movements were just right. Finally, he came to a very threatening position from the basket and completed the hook. This low attack can be summed up in two words - solid!"

Duan Ran: "Turner's offense is not good, and Hood's three-pointer is indeed available. Li Haoyu's arrangement of McCollum can be said to be a lot of money."

The Blazers attacked, Lillard dribbled the ball to the left 45 degrees, thinking that Iron B Turner had finally gone down, and prepared to attack boldly.

It is difficult for him to take advantage of Westbrook's defense, but with the pick-and-roll it is different. It should not be too easy for him to stand out from Adams.

Lillard on the left directed his teammates to the weak side to open up space, Hood and Li Haoyu landed at 45 degrees on the right, and George and Harkless landed in the bottom corner on the right.

The tool man Kanter mentioned 45 degrees to the left and approached Westbrook from the left. The moment Kanter arrived, the iron turtle took a step to the left to prevent himself from being completely blocked.

Lillard observed this scene, immediately changed direction in front of his body, and broke through to the opposite right.

Aquaman switched defenses against Lillard, but the Trail Blazers guard was not happy at all, because a hot man named Li Haoyu, he was hot again!
That's Hood with a 35% three-point shooting percentage!Not 21.7% iron B Turner, this is the gap between heaven and earth, you still come!Then don't blame me for being rude.

Lillard distributed the ball to the top of the arc that was 45 degrees to the right and was in the open space. At this time, George in the bottom corner on the right was already in place.

Hood, who received the ball, had no chance to take the first shot, so he had to distribute the ball to Harkless in the open corner.

The Trail Blazers small forward made a decisive three-pointer, and the basketball went straight to the basket.

boom!
Add iron to iron!

O'Neill: "Lee is too ruthless. After Hood came up, he still went to double-team Lillard. He was determined not to let the Blazers play pick-and-rolls."

Barkley: "In addition to Hood, the Trail Blazers, Harkless is also an iron B. His three-point shooting percentage is only 27%, which is worse than Russell. Li Haoyu double-teams Lillard, and George makes up for it Hood emptied Harkless. In order to deal with the Thunder's defensive rotation, the Blazers could only give the basketball to the emptied Harkless.

The Thunder took advantage of the Trail Blazers CJ's perimeter weakness after he left the court and beat him to death. "

Off the court, CJ slammed the vacant seat next to him. He really wanted to help his teammates on the court, but he fell into a quagmire of fouls. That Huaguo defender was really disgusting.

In the next game, Lillard knew that he would be double-teamed, gave up the pick-and-roll offense, and began to organize his teammates, but his teammates were far less efficient than the Thunder's sharp outside trident.

At 7 minutes, the two sides fought 16 to 8, and Donovan replaced Li Haoyu to prepare for the transition.

Without Li Haoyu's restraint, the Blazers' defense could breathe a little easier, but then George's singles with the ball took control of the situation.

到了2分40秒，雷霆以20比13握有7分的领先优势，进入衔接段雷霆李浩宇回到场上。

McCollum applied to play to lead the team, but Stotts was afraid of Li Haoyu's foul-making ability. He worried that Li Haoyu would beat McCollum to three fouls, and then he would not have to play the whole game.

Lillard had no choice but to play the entire first quarter. The Blazers guard whose physical fitness had declined was far less efficient than the physically fit Li Haoyu.

After entering the court, Li Haoyu fired with full firepower. Not too many BBs came up and scored two deadly three-pointers. Yazi, who is not very smart, has his IQ and golf quotient completely blown out by Li Haoyu.

At the end of the first quarter, the two sides battled 33 to 20, and the Thunder led by 13 points.

After the break, CJ McCollum was finally able to play, but Thunder Morris also returned to the court to deal with the Blazers' pick-and-roll offense.

With McCollum's containment, Lillard is no longer double-teamed and can finally play normally, but Morris limits their sharp pick-and-roll offense.

The Thunder's sharp offense made it difficult for the Blazers to deal with. Westbrook and George's offense with the ball has been online today. Due to Li Haoyu's restraint, the Blazers dare not attack at will.

At the same time, Li Haoyu can continue to look for opportunities to cut and kill the Blazers.

The difference in offensive talent between the two teams began to show. At the end of the first half, the Thunder led 59 to 42 by 17 points.

In the third quarter, Lillard stepped forward and clung to the score, failing to expand the score. But when it came to the transition, it was Li Haoyu's time, and the point difference was pulled to 20 points in one fell swoop. The team's general situation is gone, and the fourth quarter also failed to organize an effective offense.

In the end, the Thunder won the third game of the series 112 to 94 and won the match point, only one game away from the Western Conference Finals!
In this campaign, Li Haoyu scored 31 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, George scored 30 points, and Westbrook got a quasi-triple double with 22 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists.

Westbrook tried to get a triple-double during garbage time in the fourth quarter, but was rejected by Donovan.

This is a critical stage of the playoffs, and Donovan doesn't want any surprises. What if Westbrook gets injured when playing stats?
Lillard scored 27 points, and McCollum only scored 18 points due to limited playing time due to foul mire.

At the post-match press conference, Stotts expressed his views.

"Originally, we made careful arrangements for today's game. We attacked Morris at the beginning, and it went very well. I was able to successfully get him into a foul quagmire.

The Thunder's inside line after Morris could not stop our pick-and-roll offense. I once thought that we would have at least a 5-point lead in the first quarter.

But Lee is so disgusting!He made my battle plan a waste of paper, man, his impact on the court is huge.

Frankly speaking, we are not afraid of Russell and Paul George. No matter how much they score, Lillard and CJ are capable of fighting back.

But, they have Lee!
That incomparably annoying devil, you don't know that these days I don't think about food or tea just to figure out a way to restrict him, but the style of play of this Huaguo defender is too special!If it weren't for his performance today, we could have fought until the last moment of the fourth quarter.

We Portlanders will not give up, even if the situation is very difficult, but the assistant coach and I will carefully analyze the video to find problems, and we will fight for the dignity of Portland in the next game! "
