Chapter 209： Is he really tired?

Durant didn't have a good chance of holding the ball or not. He started to cooperate with Westbrook.

After the air-cut big loop layup, or a direct jump shot after turning over the ball, he has scored one after another.

But it is very intuitive that he is uncomfortable on the court, and his scoring efficiency is significantly lower than usual.

Throughout the first quarter, Tang Tian was a piece of brown sugar that he couldn't get rid of, which made him feel uncomfortable.

His performance also put the Thunder in a disadvantaged position. When the first quarter hit about 9 minutes, the Thunder were behind 12-20.

At this time, the two sides entered the rotation one after another, Duncan and Parker over the Spurs side rested, Ginobili came off the bench.

The Thunder also dropped Westbrook over Harden.

These are some regular rotations, but the Durant is still on the court.

Scott Brooks is Durant's mentor. He wants his proud disciples to stay on the court and continue to look for the state.

And Brooks has a little more consideration.

Durant is good at running without the ball, and has always been the core of the team. He has averaged more than 38 minutes per game in his career. This season is even closer to 40 minutes. Physical strength is not a problem at all.

The opposite Tang Tiancai played the second game of the starter, and he also watched the Spurs' previous game video before the game. Tang Tian's physical strength dropped in the second half and the fluctuation was relatively large.

If Popovich keeps Tang Tian on the field, then, with each passing day, Durant will definitely have more room to play;

Conversely, if Popovich replaces Tang Tian, ​​Durant will have more room to play.

Durant's large loop layup caused Tang Tian to foul and got two free throws.

Popovich called Tang Tian to the sidelines and asked him about his physical condition.

"completely fine."

Tang Tian answered very positively.

Mask Man's skills are indeed blue. He basically defended Durant in this quarter, but he still feels full of physical strength.

This really amounts to a spare physical slot.

Durant made two free throws to help the Thunder reduce the point difference to 6 points.

Looking back at the Spurs' offense, Ginobili broke through Harden and scored a layup, which was still 8 points.

Durant was on the floor, Harden didn't have much shot right, he dribbled to the frontcourt to see Durant beckoned.

Although I was a little unhappy, I could only give the ball to the past.

Durant continued to play Tang Tian with the ball, he broke through very resolutely, but Tang Tian's defense was also very tight, he was forced to stop the ball.

Tang Tian shrouded him without a chance, the offensive time was approaching, and he turned over a difficult jumper and missed.

The defensive rebound was taken down by Split, and the Thunder's offense returned without success.

"How did he do that?"

Barkley shouted with his mouth open at this time.

Smith and O'Neal both looked at him with a puzzled look, wondering what to expect in this ordinary round.

"Don't you find out? He just did that defense ... perfectly."

Buckley continued.

"Charles, he did just that at the beginning."

Kenny Smith reminded.

"That's the problem. He's been doing it all quarter, but he still maintains such a high defense!"

Buckley's words reminded Smith and O'Neal that they reacted one after the other.

This kind of dogfighting type of defense is particularly exhausting, and Tang Tian's persistence to this day is really incredible.

"He must have paid a lot off the court."

O'Neal made an explanation. He didn't like training the most, so at the end of his career, there was a big physical problem, which was also a feeling after retirement.

The game on the court continued, Durant continued to attack in the last two minutes, but the effect was similar to the previous one. Although there were still scores, but the efficiency was still very low.

After the first quarter, the Thunder were 18 points behind the Spurs by 12 points.

Durant scored 12 points in the first quarter, but only hit 4 goals in 11 shots, which is completely incomparable with his usual efficiency.

He is really in trouble tonight.

Durant came up in the second quarter, and the Thunder's main offensive point shifted to Harden.

Harden's status tonight is completely different from the preseason game. Whether it is a breakthrough or a ball, it is obviously decisive and resolute. The end is also perfect.

The Thunder also narrowed the points a little bit under his leadership.

Harden filled the second quarter and contributed 13 points and 3 assists in a single quarter. The Thunder kept chasing points under his leadership, trailing the Spurs 6 points 40 to 46 at halftime.

"Kevin, keep up the pace. He can't follow you all the time."

In the locker room at halftime, Brooks encouraged Durant individually.

Of the four minors, Durant's talents and ceilings are the highest, and he is the most dependent.

Harden's excellent performance only broke out in his eyes, and the team still needed Durant to get back to winning.

Harden was on the sidelines at this moment, and he felt a little bit thoughtful when he heard what Brooks said. UU Reading Books

Really speaking, he is a flower show, and he has one less spot than Durant.

Back in the second half, the Thunder adjusted their strategy and attacked Westbrook as soon as they came up.

Wei Shao carried the dynamite bag and kept slamming into the Spurs 'inside line, forcing the Spurs' defense line to shrink.

Until then, Durant used the pick-and-roll to get a chance to hit the long shot continuously, and he scored 5 points in a row.

Brooks really relied on Durant, and Westbrook's strong impetus was to pave the way for him.

But Westbrook saw Durant as a brother and was very determined in his tactics.

Tang Tian realized this, he completely ignored the others, and directly pressed Durant.

Durant is not able to pass the ball at the moment, second-handed singles means are limited, third-dribble level is not high, after being forced by Tang Tian several times, he almost made mistakes and can only rely on playing without a ball to score.

This game continued for another whole quarter, and the situation on the court was exactly the same as at the beginning.

Durant scored in an inefficient way, and the Thunder once again fell into a passive state.

For the last attack in the third quarter, Durant continued the ball on the left with a 3-pointer.

Tang Tian grasped the dynamic vision this time, and saved the ball.

Durant directly turned into a human ball and the ball passed. The ball passed!

Tang Tian intercepted the ball suddenly, the others didn't respond at all, he directly held the ball and pressed the whistle to put the scoring.

The ball also helped the Spurs lead the Thunder by 15 points at the end of the third quarter.

"Isn't he really tired?"

Looking at Tang Tian who rushed to the fast break after stealing, Buckley could not help but swear, but this was against the Durant for three full quarters!
