Super Heavy Artillery - v3 Chapter 697

“Super Heavy Artillery (

Soon, the first quarter of the Bucks and Thunder’s game ended.

The score on the field was fixed at 33:29, and the Bucks in the away game took a 4-point lead. This is the result of Anlo’s last three-pointer at the buzzer. He had already rested for two minutes, but Donovan hoped that he could get closer to the score at the last minute, so he played the final attack.

After the goal was scored, Chesapeake Energy Arena burst into cheers. Throwing into the buzzer is indeed something that everyone is excited about. While enjoying the cheers of the audience, An Luo talked in a low voice with Westbrook who passed the ball, and the two walked to the bench side by side.

“Fortunately, it did not disappoint Donovan’s expectations!”

An Luo was indeed relieved. You know, before that, An Luo had missed two consecutive three-pointers. In fact, when Donovan asked An Luo to perform the final attack, he was still slightly worried. He was afraid that he wouldn’t make it! Although there is sufficient protection, chance is really quite subtle. An Luo once shot 100% of his three-pointers in the game, but unfortunately, such a situation is really rare.

After a short break for a few minutes, the game continued.

Both parties have made some personnel adjustments. Anlow still took the lead, and Donovan sent Alexander to partner with him. Now, Donovan is more and more like to use this second-year player, playing longer and longer.

Budenholzer kept Matthews on the court. Although the veteran could not provide too many points for the Bucks, his defensive effect against Anlow in this game was pretty good. Of course, the Bucks do not have a good choice in the second position. Although backup shooting guard Pat Connaughton is very active in the game and has a good three-point shooting ability, but the defensive ability is not very strong, there is no advantage in height and wingspan, and the speed is slow.

Bledsoe rested and George Hill came off the bench. After the loss of Brogdon, George Hill’s role in the Bucks became even more prominent. In fact, the biggest problem the Bucks has always been is not the weakness of the second position, but the lack of an organizer who can really sort out the offense and control the rhythm. Bledsoe’s offensive ability is obviously higher than passing, otherwise, he would not average only about 5 assists per game. In assists, he is even inferior to Antetokounmpo.

Although the second quarter was rotated for a long time, the intensity of the game was not bad.

The Thunder, which is behind the score, naturally want to take advantage of this period of time to catch the score back. Therefore, they have full firepower on the offensive end. Alexander, Grant and Noelle played well in the tandem of Anlo.

In this way, An Luo felt a lot easier. He only needs to take the ball across the center line, and then seize the opportunity to pass it to a teammate with a better position on the court. After all, he was unwilling to fight hard under the strict defense of the opponent.

The Thunder quickly tied the score. But they seem to stop there!

Just as the situation on the field began to change to the Thunder, Budenholzer made a decisive decision, and a timeout interrupted the rhythm of the Thunder. Subsequently, George Hill and Sterling Brown teamed up to play a wave of 10:12. Although they did not reverse the situation, they withstood the Thunder’s offensive and gained enough rest time for their main players.

With the return of the two main players to the field, the game entered the most intense and anxious period.

When Antetokounmpo, Middleton and Lopez returned to the game one after another, the Bucks began to speed up and wanted to establish a certain advantage at the end of the first half.

Antetokounmpo first tried to make a three-pointer. Although Robertson was tightly attached, he still had enough space and opportunity under the cover of Lopez. After getting rid of the defense, Antetokounmpo jumped directly behind Lopez.

It is a pity that this ball was not made! It is worth mentioning that this is the first three-pointer Antetokounmpo missed in this game.

The rebound was snatched by Westbrook, followed by a spark-like counterattack.

Westbrook was in the middle, like a sharp arrow, tearing open the Bucks’ defense line and thrusting it straight into the opponent’s chest. Anluo and Gallinari followed closely behind.

The Bucks’ defense is not slow. Antetokounmpo stepped away from his long legs and shook off his arms and rushed towards Westbrook quickly. Middleton and Bledsoe also pursued Gallinari and Anlo.

Westbrook felt the pressure of Antetokounmpo, who was galloping behind him. He tried to slow down and control the rhythm, taking advantage of Antetokounmpo’s carelessness to make a foul. But the latter did not give him that opportunity. After Antetokounmpo approached Westbrook, he didn’t directly post it, but stuck in position and waited for Westbrook to layup~www.mtlnovel.com~ After all, his height and wingspan are too advantageous and easy You can cover the opponent’s shots.

The basketball was passed by Westbrook, but Antetokounmpo had quick eyes, jumped up high, and reached out to fish back the flying ball. Afterwards, Antetokounmpo took the ball himself, strode to the inside, a large European step swayed Robertson and smashed the ball.

Starting from the three-point line again, it only took two steps to get to the basket. The strength of the regular season MVP is indeed extraordinary.

Seeing Antetokounmpo’s arrogance, Westbrook felt very upset. This is his turf, but a one-stop dunk that the opponent still completed after stealing him. This makes Westbrook even more upset!

Westbrook decided to find this place back. Ever since, he took over the next attack.

Adams made a pick-and-roll for Westbrook, screened for the latter to get rid of the defense and immediately went to the basket. But this time, Westbrook did not pass the ball back to Adams. Instead, he rushed toward Lopez, who was already in the basket.

Perhaps it was because he was afraid of being used by Westbrook’s speed, Lopez did not get too close to Westbrook. At the same time, when Westbrook rushed to meet him, he quickly stepped back to the basket with small steps.

This retreat was originally intended to deal with Westbrook’s changes, but he never thought that Westbrook rushed directly to meet him. When he reached the basket, Westbrook’s feet slammed into the air, and the whole person seemed to step on a spring and rose into the air.

Boom!

At this time, Westbrook seemed to be pressing Lopez’s head and pressing the ball into the basket. After he stood firmly, he glanced at Lopez indifferently, and then walked away.
