Chapter 204 204. The season is over (seeking subscription)
If Westbrook is like this, the rest of the team is even less likely. Except for the MVP, the best sixth man, best defensive player, and best rookie naturally have nothing to do with other Thunder players.
On April 4, the Thunder challenged the Rockets away.
The Rockets have already achieved their 64th win of the season, ranking first in the West, and the rest is to see where the team history record will be rushed.
The Thunder still need to fight hard to win the rankings with the Blazers.
The Thunder opened the game with full firepower. Facing the Rockets who are addicted to [-] points, no amount of points is too much to lead. We can only hope that the Rockets don't feel good.
But the Rockets' three-pointer feel is not bad today, and the Thunder can only strengthen the fight to increase their scoring.
Not enough shots, but rebounds.
The Thunder once again showed a daring attitude, grabbing offensive rebounds one after another in the hands of Capela, Tucker and Nene, and narrowing the score through the second attack.
第一节雷霆靠着还稳靠的投篮手感打出了36：30的比分，李茶7投6中，三分2中2拿到了14分。
Li Cha played for 12 minutes in the first quarter, and the rest time in the second quarter was longer. As a result, George made 4 of 1 shots and Westbrook made 8 of 3 shots.
After Li Cha came on the court, he continued his three-point shooting feeling, but only scored three points with one three-point shot.
The two teams scored evenly, and the Thunder fell behind by 1 point.
61: 62.
In the third quarter, both sides lowered their tempo. They played too fast in the first two quarters and consumed a lot of energy. In order to accumulate energy in the fourth quarter, both teams reduced their attack speed.
But it also strengthened the defense.
The Thunder, who are even less good at positional warfare, fell into a disadvantage in this competition, and their hit rate plummeted.
Fortunately, the Rockets' three-pointers in the third quarter were not high, and the two sides scored 19:21.
The Thunder are still three points behind.
In the fourth quarter, the Thunder increased its impact on the Rockets' inside line. The main reason was that the outside line really couldn't make shots, and George's shooting percentage dropped again.
Except for Li Cha who was able to hit a few shots from the outside, the other scores were all hitting the inside to cause damage.
This is also Thunder's style.
The Rockets also missed a three-pointer in the fourth quarter, and Harden has yet to draw a foul.
Every time he played against the Thunder, Harden would habitually refrain from fouling. He has a better relationship with Westbrook and Li Cha, so he won't tear himself apart.
The Thunder seized the opportunity, overtook the score and won the victory.
威斯布鲁克25投10中得到24分7篮板10助攻。乔治17投5中得到22分6篮板4助攻，投不中造犯规得到了10次罚球。
李茶14投9中得到25分5篮板2助攻。
Westbrook only had 7 rebounds in this game, which means that he must get 35 rebounds in the remaining two games to get an average triple-double.
35 rebounds, even Drummond, who likes to take rebounds the most in the league, can't do it. One thing must be done to get a triple-double per game.
"Go for it! Russell!" Li Cha looked at Westbrook with a serious expression, "We are in charge of defending the position. When there are rebounds, you will grab them."
Westbrook frowned, "It's not good to brush for one stat, what I want is for the team to win, personal stats are not necessary."
"This year you gave up a lot of possessions, everyone saw it, and you led the team to 54 wins."
George nodded. After the All-Star break, George's scoring average was only in his early 20s. Even Li Cha, the third player, had 24 points. Westbrook still carried the team on his shoulders many times.
Regardless of the data or the locker room, the Thunder is Westbrook's team, the undisputed leader.
"And this is not an ordinary statistic. In order to make up for his regrets, David scored 71 points in the last game of the regular season, just to beat Shaquille and win the scoring title. And you are not trying to compare with anyone, but to get an average triple-double back to back. This is an unprecedented historical moment."
"Famous figures can score points for one of their own honors. You are creating history, and your achievements are even greater. You must know that not everyone can create such an opportunity!"
"Maybe future generations can surpass you, but first you must create so that future generations can surpass you."
Westbrook was a little hesitant, and it still didn't sound good to say it after swiping the data.
Li Cha noticed Westbrook's thoughts, "There will definitely be people who scold the behavior of brushing data, but if there is an opportunity to break the record and fail to seize it, it will definitely not be just one or two people who regret it."
"One cannot satisfy everyone at the same time. If so, it will be more meaningful to leave one's name in history."
"After many years, no one will remember that you gave up your records in order not to brush your data, Russell, and no one will remember who scolded you after you maxed out your records!"
Westbrook's heart was obviously moved, he straightened up, and his momentum burst out, "Li Cha, what you said has been approved by me!"
"However, I still want the team to win! When I put all my energy on rebounding, I want the Thunder to win!"
The aura that Westbrook exuded at this time was so strong, as if a gust of wind was blowing by, Li Cha felt that he was almost blown to move around.
"What's the problem! Leave the offense to Paul and me!" Li Cha responded loudly, patting his chest.
George looked at Westbrook and then at Li Cha, and nodded emphatically.
On April 4, the Thunder came to the Heat's home court.
After learning of Westbrook's decision and Li Cha George's support, Donovan has already told the team's players to give Westbrook the opportunity to rebound in the next two games, so that he can achieve this great record.
Now that he has decided to do it, Westbrook will spare no effort to achieve it.
Try to keep your physical strength in the defense. If you don't defend your opponent well, there will be no more rebounds. The premise of rebounding is to prevent your opponent from shooting.
With this foundation, the Thunder also played very orderly, and the enhanced defense also made the Heat suffer.
After three quarters of fierce fighting, the Heat finally collapsed in the fourth quarter. The team only made 20 of 5 shots and enthusiastically provided many rebounds that Westbrook needed.
In the end, with the powerful impact of the Thunder in the fourth quarter, the single quarter was 39:12.
115:93 The Thunder won by 22 points.
威斯布鲁克10投5中拿到14分18篮板13助攻，完成了本场的任务。
乔治20投8中得到29分3篮板。李茶20投13中得到35分2助攻。
On April 4, the final game of the Thunder's regular season, they played against the Grizzlies at home.
Donovan encouraged the whole team before the game. Two major events will happen today, and everyone must strive to win.
The mystery drove the nerves of the team. Facing the Grizzlies at the bottom, the Thunder broke out with a great desire to attack.
Of course, Westbrook still has to continue to grab rebounds.
Unexpectedly, Donovan's encouragement unexpectedly activated George. George, who had been knocked down for an unknown number of games, ushered in an explosion in the final game.
However, it is also possible that George discovered that when Westbrook was not the leader, his score was still not as good as that of Li Cha, so that the second and third leaders were messed up.
Regardless of the aspect, George has to prove himself. Maybe Li Cha didn't want to steal the limelight, but the limelight is indeed on Li Cha. Fans and the media will transfer resources to Li Cha, and George will lose his value.
乔治大爆发，两分6投5中，三分14投8中，罚球8投6中，拿到40分4篮板2助攻。
123:139, the Thunder ended perfectly with a three-game winning streak at home.
李茶17投10中得到26分1篮板3助攻。
威斯布鲁克则是9投4中得到10分20篮板19助攻的另类三双，篮板数超过预计的17个，达成场均三双，更是连续两个赛季场均三双。
There is no one before, and there will be no one in the future.
Averaging a triple-double per game can be said to be a miracle. Throughout the 70-year history of the NBA, only Big O Robertson and Westbrook completed it. As a result, it took only one season for Westbrook to achieve such a miracle again. It is not easy to achieve such a result for two consecutive seasons.
But people have habits. For example, James has averaged more than 25+5+5 per game every season since his debut. You will feel that he has not improved, and such statistics are normal, but there are very few players in the league who can do it in a single season, let alone more than a dozen seasons.
By the same token, when Westbrook makes a triple-double as easy as drinking water, everyone will think that the triple-double is nothing special, and they will not regard the average triple-double as a miracle.
Because a miracle can only be called a miracle if it is very difficult to happen once.
But they forget that only in the eyes of gods can miracles be truly ordinary existences.
Today, it belongs to Westbrook.
At the same time, it doesn't belong to him alone.
Collison came on for 2 minutes at the end.
This kind big man has shown a conscientious state no matter when he appears on the stage, and garbage time is not an excuse for him to not focus.
Collison played for Westbrook to perform a technical foul free throw. In addition to his two shots being fouled, he got a total of 5 free throws. Although he only made one of the free throws, he scored 1 point and 1 rebound.
But the whole audience was chanting MVP.
The limelight even overwhelmed George, who was exploding in efficiency, and Westbrook, who averaged triple-doubles back to back.
why?
Because today is Collison's retirement battle.
The No. 03 pick in 12 has joined the Sonics since he entered the league. If the Sonics hadn't changed the owner, venue and team name, he would be an outstanding representative of one man, one city.
Conscientious, Collison played in this team for 14 years, and gave all his youth and ability to the team.
Collison contributes his strength on and off the court, not only in professionalism, but also in the locker room, he acts as a big brother, giving everything to create a good atmosphere for every player.
"Nick is our role model!" Presti appeared at the end of the game, expressing his best wishes to Collison.
