Chapter 614: end
With Derek Fisher on, the Thunder's offense finally returned to normal.
Although they returned to normal, they still couldn't make any waves under the huge point difference.
In the fourth quarter, looking at the huge difference of 32 points, Brooks put on the bench.
All Thunder players had no expression on their faces, they were already numb.
In other words, at the end of the first half of the game, they lost their ambitions for victory.
In the stands of the Chesapeake Energy Stadium, about half of the seats are already empty.
David Stern was also very annoyed by this, because the Knicks abruptly lowered the gold-absorbing ability of the NBA Finals by a notch.
At the same time, David Stern also had great concerns about the attendance and ratings of the fourth game.
However, in the end, the Thunder still did not let the Knicks break the biggest difference in the finals.
124:95!
The Knicks won Game 3 of the Finals with a 29-point lead in Oklahoma City.
The Thunder players can only watch the Knicks complete a myth in their own territory.
And they, like James when he was swept by the Spurs, are still paying tuition for success and paying the price for their youth.
The Knicks won G3, and the big score came to 3:0!
There is only one win left from the Thunder's elimination!
Lian Dao played 36 minutes in this game and scored 31 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists.
At the end of the third quarter, Lian Dao rested until the end of the game.
Knicks fans are complaining that the Thunder's poor performance has completely lowered Lian Dao's average per game in the finals.
As long as the Thunder persist for a while, Lian Dao is estimated to be able to hit a 40+ triple-double in this game.
After the game, the live shots were given to Durant and Westbrook again.
Not far away, in the player tunnel, Durant and Westbrook faced their mother who was walking towards them. At this moment, the two could no longer hold back their tears.
Durant hugged his mother, Wanda Platt, and suddenly his nose was sore and tears flowed like springs.
At this moment, they are no longer the all-powerful stars of the league, but just a big boy in his early twenties.
For the actions of these two people, the teammates passing by and the staff around them felt distressed.
Especially Durant, since this big boy joined the Thunder, his efforts and progress have been seen by all the staff.
How much they hope to have a championship to compensate this young man who never slackens and never slackens.
But the Knicks' performance in the series was too strong, and they didn't give the Thunder any chance to win the championship.
"Sickle, you really don't care about brotherhood at all!"
James Harden did not choose to leave the field directly. He was the only player among the Thunder's three young players who stayed and hugged Lian Dao.
"I'm sorry, James! But if it were you, you wouldn't show mercy, would you?"
Lian Dao stepped forward and hugged Harden. For James Harden, who reached the finals for the first time, this result was indeed too cruel.
"Hey, what are you talking about, I don't need your apology. We both know that this is competitive sports, and there is no such thing as showing mercy!"
"However, don't be complacent, be careful of my fourth battle...the fourth battle will overthrow you!"
James Harden said with a wry smile, high-fived Lian Dao and left the court.
"The fourth battle..."
Harden turned his head and took another look at Chesapeake Energy Stadium before walking into the tunnel.
Immediately, he shook his head with dark eyes...
If it can really overthrow the Knicks, how could it be a 0:3 situation.
Since the Thunder lost this game, no, it is possible to start from the loss of G2, the finals have already been divided.
The fourth game only prolongs the Thunder team's suffering.
Afterwards, Lian Dao, Yin Baka and Perkins hugged politely, didn't say much, just hugged and left.
After all, Lian Dao has no personal relationship with Yin Baka and Perkins, and they are not old enemies on the field.
After seeing off everyone in the Thunder, Lian Dao and his teammates just had a simple celebration.
After all, this is the Chesapeake Energy Stadium and the home court of the Thunder. Their celebration with great fanfare can easily arouse the anger of the home fans.
Although Lian Dao didn't care too much, but at the end of the game, one thing more is worse than one thing less.
Including the post-match press conference, Lian Dao changed his aggressive tone and tried to keep a low profile.
"Everyone in the Thunder performed very well. They were very tenacious and caused us a lot of trouble during the game..."
As soon as Lian Dao finished speaking, the media reporters below all looked at Lian Dao with strange eyes.
How does this guy manage to be serious and nonsense.
The key point is that this guy didn't feel embarrassed or blush when he said these words.
tenacious, troublesome...
Is this about the Thunder?
If it's what you said, why did you clock in three quarters?
The reporter below who saw Lian Dao's intentions not only cursed secretly: "Little fox!"
Lian Dao's strong speech before was to undermine Thunder's confidence.
Especially the 'G3 Battle' is the Thunder's first home game, and some of their players still have hope.
At that time, Lian Dao's strength and self-confidence would give everyone in Lei Ting a strong sense of oppression and fear, causing them involuntary psychological shadows.
At the same time, the momentum of the Thunder will be even more sluggish.
The weaker the opponent's momentum, the easier it is for them to defeat the opponent.
Now, they have captured the Thunder's home court and are sure of an absolute advantage.
Further oppression under such circumstances may be counterproductive.
And even if there is no counterproductive phenomenon, it is a very degrading behavior to sprinkle salt on the opponent's wound when an absolute advantage is established.
…
Two days later, it was also at Chesapeake Energy Stadium.
Throughout the game, the Thunder players seemed to be walking dead, with no fighting spirit.
With a 0:3 deficit, in everyone's eyes, the Thunder has "liked to mention" the NBA's overall runner-up, including the Thunder themselves.
After all, in the history of the NBA playoffs, no team can complete a comeback after falling behind 0:3.
So, this also makes them lose all motivation to fight.
But something very interesting happened at Chesapeake Energy Stadium.
Although the Chesapeake Energy Stadium is still full, the number of Thunder fans and Knicks fans in the stands is evenly divided.
This is unique in previous finals.
The reason for this phenomenon is the Thunder fans themselves.
The Thunder fans who snapped up the tickets for the fourth finals before, put the tickets for the fourth finals on the second-hand market in despair after the third game.
Once it was released, it was snapped up by a large number of Knicks fans.
Some Knicks fans even flew thousands of miles to Oklahoma City.
Although the Knicks fans know that the game has lost suspense, it is worthwhile to see the Knicks successfully defending the title on the spot.
The Knicks fans who traveled thousands of miles to the scene were extremely excited, and the sound of cheering and shouting throughout the game never stopped.
On the other hand, the Thunder fans saw that the home team had no fighting spirit, and they couldn't even arouse the interest in cheering.
This also caused Thunder players to be suppressed by Knicks players on the court, and Thunder fans to be suppressed by Knicks fans in the stands.
In this game, Chesapeake Energy Stadium seemed to be completely transformed into the Knicks' home court.
David Stern, who came to the scene, couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief. The problem of attendance that he was worried about before did not happen.
In terms of ratings, compared with last year's finals, it still dropped.
However, this is also expected by David Stern. After all, there are no suspenseful games, so naturally not many people like to watch them.
Fortunately, the fan base of the Knicks is large enough. Although the ratings have declined, it has not been the same as the Spurs and Pistons in 2005.
If you don't compare it with last year's finals, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com's ratings are comparable to previous years' finals.
But these were all things that bothered David Sean.
As for the Knicks players, they are enjoying this game and enjoying the moment of successful defending.
In the last 2 minutes of the game, the Knicks had already established a winning advantage. All the Knicks' substitute players and coaches stood shoulder to shoulder on the sidelines.
They high-five each other, hug each other, cheer each other up, wait for the moment the end-of-game buzzer sounds, and rush onto the court to celebrate.
TNT commented on Tiantuan, but no longer commented on the game.
They started gushing about what a great achievement the two-peat was.
Especially for a team like the Knicks who came out of the draft, how difficult it is to win two consecutive championships.
