Fortunately, the Trail Blazers can play at home, and their home winning rate has always been good. Their current goal is to win one first so that they will not lose the suspense of advancing too early.

On May 4, Western Conference Semi-Finals G3, Thunder VS Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers are really a team with very bad luck. Not to mention that they won’t choose Mr. Qiao in 1983, they have been in a row for nearly 20 years. First, Huang Mambaroy retired early due to serious injuries, and the Emperor left the league sadly due to injuries. The Trail Blazers Veterinary is really well-known, and Ade and Lillard have played out, but their peak periods are not together. When Ade is at its peak, Lillard entered the league. When Lillard is at its peak, Ade has left and is no longer at its peak.

Lillard has the ability and courage of the boss, while Ade is the second in command of the powerful. He was originally a good match and was accompanied by a number of outstanding supporting roles. He had hope of competing for the championship. Unfortunately, the two did not overlap at their peak. The substitute lineup of the people who reversed the Rockets was too poor and he could not go further.

Lillard is in very good shape this season, and his performance since the playoffs is in the top 5 levels in the league. He also eliminated the Rockets led by the Light Bulb Combination. Unfortunately, even if they meet the Thunder led by Xie Kai, they are not lucky. Of course, even if they meet the Warriors, there is no chance. This is a trick of fate and meet a historical team.

Many people are talking about how awesome Jordan was in that era, and there was no phenomenon of grouping together. But you should know that at that time, each team had only one star, and some teams did not yet. Jordan had Pippen, one of the 50 superstars in the league, as his deputy, so it was not really that difficult to establish a dynasty.

If Jordan had to face the current Thunder and Warriors alone, it might be normal to be swept away.

In this game, the Trail Blazers changed the lineup! They removed Kanter, who had performed poorly on the defensive end in the first two games, and let Leonard start.

Leonard's defense is actually not very good. Although his surname is Leonard, his defense is incomparable to facial paralysis. His characteristic is that he can move in the inside and then have a one-handed projection.

In today's league, inside players do not shoot. You either defend the gate, can eat cakes, protect frames, and grab boards, otherwise it will be really hard to get along. Just look at Howard and you will know that the former Warcraft has now become a wandering player.

Coach Stotts's change of teams was also a helpless move. Of course, he also knew that Leonard Bai could not change the current situation between the two sides.

But unchanging means death. Once it changes, there may be a turning point. If you respond to all changes, you will be the dominant side.

At the beginning of the game, the Trail Blazers played very hard. Everyone knows that this is a life-and-death game, and the first quarter is like the last quarter.

The Thunder starts with defense and is more cautious in offense. Even if I don’t have a good opportunity, I will not pass the ball easily and risk the attack. I will not give you a relaxed opportunity to counterattack, even if I do not hesitate for this for 24 seconds.

Xie Kai knew very well that his spirit would decline again and again, and his three-dimensional deaths, brother, can you maintain the whole game like this?

Xie Kai's guess was correct. After the Trail Blazers failed to bomb wildly in the first quarter, they began to slowly slow down, and the attack was not as fierce as before.

The Thunder did a good job of defense, did not give easy 3 points, strictly controlled the double guns, and let other role players defeat me.

The role players of the Trail Blazers can shoot from the outside, but cannot hit continuously and cannot digest a large amount of ball rights, which makes their offense lack continuity.

The Thunder are slowly eroding the Trail Blazers' lead, little by little, and by the second half of the third quarter, they have already surpassed.

After the Trail Blazers were overtaken, they seemed a little impatient and made more mistakes. The Thunder took the opportunity to seize the opportunity and counterattacked continuously, pulling the score wide.

In the final quarter, Lillard's super god approached the score by three points several times, but he was still unable to catch up. Xie Kai's continuous score at the critical moment helped the Thunder maintain his advantage until the end of the game.

After this game, the Thunder had already led by 3:0 with a big score, only one victory away from entering the Western Conference Finals for the fourth consecutive season.

The end of this game, and this round of series is basically final. If there are still people who think that the Trail Blazers can reverse the Thunder 4:3, then he is not a basketball fan at all.

Even Lillard no longer accepts interviews. What else can he say? Say they can reverse it? It makes no sense to say these things now, and no one will believe them. He said that these things have no effect except to attract evil.

The Trail Blazers no longer have any big moves to use. They have already taken Kante in this game, but they still have no big effect. Double guns cannot be moved, so even if they need to adjust in the fourth game, they are nothing more than adjusting the inside line. The forward line is not impossible, but at most they can put Hood or Turner in the starting lineup. These two have their own flaws. Hood is very fascinated in offense and is unstable, and his defense is not as good as Amino and Hackles. As for Turner, he can indeed organize, but his long shot is a clear shortcoming. As soon as he goes, the Thunder will desperately attack the double gun and shoot him 3 points.

In this NBA league, the inside line with projection shortcomings is still targeted like this. If it is a defender or a forward, it will be targeted even harder.

The Thunder team is in a state of unstoppable power, but the Warriors are in trouble.

Although the Warriors lead 2:1 in the big score, the team's main scorer Durant suffered a calf injury, which seems to have to rest for a while.

There are reports that Durant injured the Achilles tendon and may have been reimbursed for the season. The Warriors officially denied this. They said that Durant was just a calf strain, no Achilles tendon problems, and no season reimbursement.

Of course, who said it is true, which largely determines the fate of the Warriors this season. Although it is difficult for them to win in a series of seven games against the Thunder, if Durant is not there, their chances of winning will be lower. In any case, Durant is one of their few points that can gain an advantage in terms of the match. And he is a special person, both for the Thunder and the Warriors. If he really doesn't play, then if these two teams meet in the Western Conference Finals, there will be many stories.

But injury is really not something that can be determined by human consciousness. Sometimes it depends on luck, because it is really hard to say. Of course, tolerance is also on one hand, because James rarely gets injured, and you can't say that he plays too few games.
