The Battle of Tianwang Mountain, in the NBA, is the exclusive title for the fifth game after the two sides scored 2:2 in the series. Through decades of history, 80% of the teams that win the Battle of Tianwangshan will win the entire series.

   Now the Thunder and the Rockets have reached Tianwang Mountain after 2:2. Judging from the previous games, both sides have a chance to win this game. Moreover, no one will give up. Therefore, this is destined to be a fierce game.

"We are ready for seven games! The playoffs are very difficult. No one will let us win easily. We know this well. The good news is that we can maintain our fighting spirit every night. This is very important and the key to winning the entire series."

   "I think we will have the last laugh. In this arena, everyone will applaud and applaud us. When a city is standing with us, what reason is there to lose the game?"

   After briefly expressing his opinion to the reporter, An Luo and Westbrook set foot on the battlefield together. You know, this is the first battle of Tianwangshan in his career. Since it is the first time, we must leave a good impression.

   Soon, both sides' starting debut. Those are the same people who know the roots and the bottom, but they perform differently every night.

   "嘀......"

   When the whistle sounded, the game officially started.

   After Adams jumped to the ball for the Thunder, he ran to the three-point line and made a pick-and-roll match with Westbrook. Westbrook instantly got rid of Harden's defense and rushed into the penalty area. However, the Rockets' defensive power at the basket is not weak. Although Capella was taken out, Tucker had enough Westbrook to drink.

   Westbrook didn't make it hard either. He threw the ball back and handed it to Adams on the free throw line. The latter shook the ball and saw An Luo who had circled to the right corner. Then, the basketball left his hand and flew towards An Luo.

   An Luo caught the ball and shot it, in the blink of an eye, it was as fast as a bolt of lightning. Hit it in one click!

   After a burst of cheers, all the Thunder fans sat back to their seats and watched the game.

   Looking back, Harden advances with the ball. He wanted to communicate with Capella from outside the right three-point line to break through the Thunder's defense. There was no problem when he passed the ball, but when Capela passed it back, it was directly intercepted by Westbrook.

   After the steal, Westbrook directly launched a counterattack fast attack. Adams, who had just crossed the center line, immediately turned his horse's head and rushed into the paint area alongside Westbrook. Although Capella returned to defense very quickly, his two punches were harder than four hands. Westbrook finally threw the ball, and Adams directly buckled in.

   The rocket quickly sent the ball. Harden passed directly to Gordon outside the three-point line, trying to make a time difference. But the latter chose to shoot outside the three-point line, wasting this offense.

   An Luo picked up the rebound, and he took the ball directly to the three-point line. In the process of retreating, Paul did not stick too tightly. As a result, An Luo fired directly and hit another goal.

   1 minute, a wave of 8:0, the Thunder are in good shape tonight.

   But the Rockets quickly found their scoring status. Moreover, once they find the state of scoring, it is a continuous rhythm.

   After Anlow made a three-pointer, Harden assisted Gordon and cut to the basket, causing Grant to foul. Then made two free throws, breaking the scoring drought for the Rockets. However, Paul George then scored a mid-range score and the point difference was still 8 points.

   Next, the Thunder's offensive rhythm was disrupted by the Rockets. Anlo was very tightly defended, including Paul George. The Rockets' 212 zone defense greatly interfered with the Thunder's three-pointer and penalty zone scoring.

   With Capela hitting the basket consecutively, Harden, Paul and Gordon also hit three-pointers, and the Rockets tied the score directly. Had it not been for Paul George to make a strong three-pointer, the Rockets would have taken the lead.

   But this time is only a little bit back. As Harden started to score, the Thunder became passive. And many of his offenses are self-interested. After rushing in, Harden has been looking for physical contact, causing consecutive fouls by the Thunder players.

   No way, people all over the world know that Harden will commit a foul, but it just can't stop him.

   With another Harden layup, the Rockets took the lead. Donovan immediately called a timeout.

   After a quick arrangement, the players from both sides played again. Moreover, some personnel changes have been made. The Thunder also played Grant and Kanter, and the Rockets replaced Nene and Rivers.

   In the next half of the game, the two sides almost tied. The Thunder didn't get the score back, but at the end of the first quarter, they were only behind by 3 points.

   The second quarter game belongs to Paul George and An Luo. The former scored 10 points in the first 7 minutes and led the Thunder to take the lead. The latter is a person who withstands the output of the entire rocket. Especially in the last 3 minutes, Anluo made three three-pointers and led the team to a 13-2 attack wave. uukanshu. Com directly opened the difference to 15 points.

   In this section, the rocket was directly pushed to the edge of the cliff. D'Antoni's reaction was a little slower, although he also called a timeout, but it still didn't help.

   In the first half, the performance of the Thunder's "Big Three" was quite satisfactory. Westbrook had 9 points and 5 assists, Anro had 14 points and Paul George had 11 points. Adams performed well. He made 5 of 6 shots and contributed 10 points while also grabbing 7 rebounds, including 4 offensive rebounds. Capella was eaten to death by him, except for the unexpected performance in the middle of the first quarter, at other times, there was no bright performance.

   In the third quarter, Harden broke out! He made consecutive three-pointers from beyond the three-point line and also provided great help to his teammates. Harden, who scored with one hand, helped the team quickly tie the score in only half of the game. In this section, D'Antoni did not let him rest. Under Harden's leadership, the Rockets also bit the score.

   As soon as the fourth quarter came up, the two sides started a defensive battle. In the first two minutes, both sides were very uncomfortable with the opponent's defense and kept hitting iron without scoring a point. It wasn't until Gordon hit a three-pointer with his signature retreat step to break the deadlock on the court.

   At the critical moment, Westbrook looked extremely calm. He took advantage of Anlow and Paul George's containment to play their most familiar pick-and-roll tactics with Adams.

   Facts have proved that the more critical the time comes, the simpler the tactics, the greater the power they can exert. While the Thunder kept scoring, the Rockets suddenly lost power. They didn't score for another two minutes and directly accused the game.
