Alexander s scene of panting with his knees exposed! Many people say that Thunder is exhausted: Pacers are tired of running

On June 13, the NBA Finals will usher in a G4 showdown tomorrow. In the G3 that ended yesterday, the Thunder lost the away game and fell 1-2 behind. The scene of Alexander, the leader of the Thunder team, holding his knee and panting heavily in the final quarter, was exposed. Many media people said that the Thunder lost because they could not resist the Pacers' crazy running.

Alexander scored 30+ in the first two games of the finals. However, he performed in modest performance yesterday. He played 42 minutes in the game, only 9 of 20 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers and 5 of 6 free throws, and only scored 24 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks. More importantly, Alexander made 6 mistakes, which set the highest record for Alexander's single-game turnover in his career playoffs.

In the final quarter, a video broadcast captured a shot. With three minutes left before the end of the game, Alexander was gasping on the court, holding his knees and gasping for breath, which was enough to show his fatigue. In the entire final quarter, Alexander played for 9 minutes, made only 1 of 3 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, scored 3 points and 1 rebound, and did not give even one assist to his teammates.

In response, NBA legend Magic Johnson commented: "The Pacers' tight defense throughout the game made Alexander exhausted, which is also an important reason why the NBA's most valuable player performed poorly in the fourth quarter!"

The famous reporter Kevin O'Connor also commented: "The Thunder seem very tired. The Pacers ran them to death, just like they did against other opponents."

In an interview, Alexander talked about the Pacers' defensive strategy, and he said that the Pacers were too leaning when defending the pick-and-roll. The reporter then asked: "Have the Pacers been so defensive before?" Alexander said to this: "It hasn't been like this before, but their defensive position has been higher and they stand on the line of the screening players. After all, we should strengthen physical confrontation. If we can set up screens more actively, we can get a better shooting angle."

According to the schedule, the Thunder will continue to challenge the Pacers tomorrow. Can Alexander lead the team to 2-2? Let's wait and see!
