With 18 seconds left in the game, Durant had taken advantage of his teammates' free throws to celebrate with his mother. He knew he was ready for his first division final.
With 34 points and 14 rebounds, and leading the team to complete the reversal in the huge backwardness, Durant has already sounded the bell for a new dynasty. He will start his own story in the finals.
At the beginning of this series, the thunder, who was 2-0 behind, was almost sentenced to death. With a 6% reversal probability, facing an old team who had not lost in the playoffs, few people believed that they could win. But just like the plot in the second half of yesterday, the old spurs were a little careless, and durants had cut to the basket, slammed and roared, all of which belonged to the youth Catharsis are full of them, youth dominated the second half, but also dominated the entire Western semi-finals.
When the thunder's 18000 spectators cheered for the team's promotion to the division finals for the first time after moving to Oklahoma City, the young guards also created a legend. They became the 15th team to win in the NBA's seven game four win game in the history of the NBA.
"Although we were 18 points behind at the beginning, I never thought of going back to the Spurs to play the next game," said Durant, the "scoring champion" of the past three regular season. "I know that we are only one step away from our dream now."
"Now, it's time to challenge that team again Durant said at the end.
For three years in a row, the Los Angeles thunder joined up in the playoffs!
From the first round of the playoffs, the second round, to today's Western Conference, the thunder has completed the triple jump in three years. This time, what kind of story will they share with the Lakers.
"It's thunder again. When thunder was eliminated by the Lakers in the second round of the playoffs last season, I asserted that the story would not end. Just one year later, my prediction came true. Durant, Ji Feng and 07 met each other for three consecutive years. The first two games were won by the Lakers and Ji Feng. Two years, 8-0, thunder and Durant faced the Lakers in the playoffs Win. "
"But this time, the 4-2 flop of the old powerful spurs proved that the thunder is not Wu xiaamun, they have the strength and courage to start the Western peak with the Lakers, which seems to be Durant's best impact towards the 07 peak!" Su Qun said on his microblog after the game.
That's right. The new and old forces of the Lakers and the thunder will undoubtedly meet again in the playoffs. Ji Feng and Durant will meet again in the playoffs.
Half welcome, half farewell.
When the Lakers and thunder meet again in the playoffs, it is the lonely spurs. This time, they failed to meet the old opponent of the Lakers.
Veterans do not die, only slowly wither, in the sky flying blue bars, Duncan stood blankly.
After last year's black seven, everyone said that the Spurs couldn't do it, but Duncan quietly completed weight loss, Ginobili returned from injury, and Parker became more sophisticated. This 10-year-old car is racing at a high speed again.
Captain Jackson sighed, "looking at them, it's like us in 2003. Westbrook and harden are the same as Parker and Ginobili when they first started."
In front of himself, the Spurs did not run time.
After losing, facing reporters, Duncan was as calm as ever: "I once thought we would win the championship again, we played an extraordinary season, but the season is over."
But everyone can hear the reluctance in the words.
Duncan is 36 years old and will be free again this summer. After 16 seasons in the NBA, Duncan wants to continue playing, but he doesn't give any guarantee.
Even spurs coach Popovich also admitted that Duncan era of the Spurs has lost the last chance to win the championship.
"We were beaten by thunder. The Spurs have played to the extreme
"The future? I don't know. I just want to spend the summer
Popovich said.
In previous years, he would say the same thing, but most people would smile and say: look, Bobo has started to poison milk again.
But this time, it seems to be true.
This year's Spurs also seem to have been playing smoothly, unlike in previous years, trouble. In 2009, Ginobili missed the last six games of the regular season and playoffs due to injury; in 2011, Ginobili was injured in the elbow in the last game of the regular season, and then came back in a hurry, the team was "black seven" by Grizzlies in the first round; in 2010, Parker was very busy because of the divorce case.
However, the NBA is never sure. No matter how high the winning rate is, no injuries, no trouble outside, it still can't guarantee the championship. The fact that the Spurs are 2-0 ahead of the thunder and then returned 4-0 is the proof.
So for a while, the Internet is full of fans brushing Yeqing knot.
Only love Duncan: "dull 36 years old, really to the last chance."
I am AIPAC: "although I know that GDP will withdraw from this alliance one day, and the alliance will always be dominated by young people, when all this happened in front of me, I found that it was still so hard to accept."Long live holy city: "the Spurs bid farewell to this season in the worst way. They have done everything well. They are tactically dominant, United and take turns to ensure that there are no injuries and all the staff are healthy. They are all leading in six games. At the end of the first half, they are leading four times to enter the fourth quarter, but they still lose. In the way of 18 points being reversed, it's not thunder that beat them, it's just time."
Manu the best B: "every year, I tease the spurs that they are old and can't run, but I know that although I say so, I don't think so in my heart. However, this time, I end the season in such a way, I think it's true. The era of Spurs is really over."
……
"Hey, these fans are really not confident, so they think the Spurs are going to be cold." In his spare time of training, Ji Feng looks at all kinds of comments on the Internet, tut Tut, thunder turns over, spurs is really big news, which seems to confirm the alternation of old and new that can be played up by the media in the past two years, and the words are all for Spurs' farewell taste.
But Ji Feng is very clear. Although Duncan and others don't say it, they are definitely holding their strength in their hearts. Moreover, Popovich is not the kind of guy who will admit defeat. So, let's wait and see.
Of course, Ji Feng has to put aside the Spurs at this time and prepare for the thunder with all his strength is the right way. He also saw Durant's words. To be honest, he is also looking forward to the thunder now.
So in the face of reporters, Ji Feng very calm said: "some words now, it's too early, after all, now we just hit the division finals."
"But the fans can be ready for applause and cheers. We've beaten them twice, and this time, it's no exception. It's not good to win three consecutive games."
