The gap of 12 points seems small, but it is enough to make the thunder fans feel desperate. The whistle blows. Many loyal fans still don't want to leave for a long time. The DJ's voice is slow and deep, like all the fans predicting the time of the next game.
However, the thunder players have been in a standstill, Wei Shao said nothing, Ibaka was crying, Hadden was full of confusion, Durant stood in the middle of the field, looked up at the data on the big screen:
first of all, the icon of season peak was in the first place, and the season peak tonight was enough to make people despair. According to the data, 11 out of 15 shots and 3 from 4-3 7 out of 7 free throws, 32 points were scored and 73.3% of the shooting rate was the lowest in a single game in the playoffs. Isn't it hopeless enough.
Of course not. At the same time, Jifeng sent out 10 assists and 11 rebounds, and won three doubles in four consecutive games, equating his personal best record in the playoffs last season.
That's not all. Four steals and three blocked shots were the most in the field, which destroyed all the guards and the inside line. According to Buckley, he felt ashamed after reading the data.
"No one has done better than him, even Jordan."
This sentence naturally makes many fans of Mr. Joe feel uncomfortable. However, the data is in front of them, and they can't refute it.
Smith said with a bit of gray humor: "normally, maybe only one mistake and three fouls tell us that Jifeng is not perfect."
Thunder fans said: Thank you, and was not comforted, if a mistake three fouls can become a black spot, next door James playoffs so far average 5.8 mistakes should be to the fans all over the world, and long retired roar Tianzun will also be pulled out, constantly whipping corpses, who let him technical fouls than other ordinary fouls several times.
And the most despairing thing is that such data can not reflect the full value of Ji Feng on the court, such as counter defense, cooperative defense efficiency, etc., which can not be fully reflected by a few simple data.
But the victory will not lie, Ji Feng such performance, the Lakers have no reason to lose.
What's more, there are many strong people around Jifeng.
Kobe has 24 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, Gasol has 20 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, Bynum has 14 points and 10 rebounds, Artest has 9 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Fisher 6 points, Farmar 5 points, black 5 points, Powell 3 points, 2 rebounds and 1 steals. All the Laker rotation players have scored.
It's no wonder Durant only sighed silently after watching it. They were not unjustly defeated. Even if it wasn't for the lead that made the Lakers play too lax, the final difference was definitely more than 12 points.
But thunder did his best.
Durant had 27 points and 4 rebounds, Wei Shao had 20 points and 7 assists, and harden had 14 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds. This was the best match in the three games of the thunder three little semi-final. The three men also hit seven three-point goals in total.
But as ESPN put it: "this kind of performance is enough if you want to deal with the Blazers, but not enough if you want to beat the Lakers."
What's more, the data doesn't reflect the confusion of thunder in the second half of the second quarter and the first half of the third quarter. At that time, under the heavy pressure, the thunder young people almost forgot how to play. The continuous mistakes and continuous iron playing ruined the opportunity and ended the suspense of the game.
Maybe the whole playoff suspense.
No team has been able to complete the reversal from 0-3. Moreover, none of the team lost within 10 points in this group of match. Because of the 42 point defeat in the second game, the average loss reached a terrible 23 points.
As Zhang said after the game, "the difference between winning and losing points in a series of games has been around 10, which has proved that there is a gap between the strength of the two teams, let alone such a big difference. Thunder's strength is not enough to beat the Lakers, even a game is very difficult."
"Yeah, the next thing is to see if the thunder can fight for honor and create some trouble for the Lakers in Game 4. There are a lot of new players in the playoffs this year. Originally, they thought there was a chance to make an impact on the Lakers. As a result, this should be regarded as the most relaxed playoff for the Lakers." Yu Jia also has some feelings.
Before this year's playoffs, media revelry, the rise of pioneers, Grizzlies and thunder make them seem to see the hope of reshaping the era. Many people think that this will be the beginning of a new era.
To a certain extent, it is true that the old spurs were incredibly defeated under the impact of Grizzlies. To be honest, this defeat is a major blow to the Spurs, and also the Waterloo of Popovich and Duncan's career, and even have a certain impact on their historical status. After all, it was the second time in NBA history that the old spurs were black seven twice in three years Only the Mavericks and Spurs are more miserable.
But here in the Lakers, let all the human body know what is called a strong team inside information, momentum like a rainbow of thunder unexpectedly so tragic to 0-3 behind, before the game, absolutely few people can imagine.
But for the Lakers up and down, of course, it makes sense.
First of all, the Laker's own strength has reached the peak, and the season peak has become stronger every year. Although Gasol and Kobe have passed 30, they are still at the peak. Artest and others have also added fresh blood and are invincible in the deep bench League.After several seasons running in, the Laker team also does not have any cooperation and tacit understanding problem, the technical tactics have reached the most mature stage.
Secondly, the Lakers tried their best to solve the impact of injuries and physical fitness. Although the regular season struggled for a time, the struggle was useful. Kobe's unprecedented cultivation of 15 regular season games proved to be a very effective decision-making.
and the three consecutive championships also made the Laker full of the temperament of king, which was not learned.
Other teams, such as the Suns, spurs, jazz, Nuggets, rockets and other teams that competed with the Lakers in the previous few seasons, have fallen for various reasons, leaving only Mavericks to support them. However, the experience and strength of new teams are still not at the peak. That is to say, the western part of this season is indeed the weakest western region that the Lakers have encountered in four years.
For thunder, although it is cruel, it is also a fact that they have to accept. In front of them, this may be the price that young people need to pay.
Of course, give up is impossible to give up, thunder players Wei Shao and Du Shao all came to the press conference, but also lost to shoulder the performance.
"You're sorry you lost the game." Asked the reporter.
"Yes, we lost, but we haven't been eliminated. We still have a chance." Durant said.
"In two seasons, you've been defeated seven times in a row by the Lakers." A reporter is a reporter. He has a good hand in uncovering scars.
"So what? Every scene will be a new beginning." Answered Westbrook.
