The Thunder lost two sinners: Jewish plus or minus value - the worst in history, Homegren is defeated by 2 of 9 shots

On June 20, in the NBA Finals, the Thunder lost to the Pacers 91-108, and the two teams tied 3-3 in the total score. The overall performance of all the players in this game was not good. In addition to Alexander's eight worst mistakes in any game in his career, the performance of Jaylen Williams and Homegren, the Thunder's new third-year junior, were hard to describe, and the two need to take the blame for the team's defeat.

Jaylen Williams' performance in this game is completely different from the strong performance of the G5. He scored 40 points in the last game to set a career high in the playoffs, making great contributions to the Thunder's winning of the championship point. However, he made 6 of 13 shots in this game, and all of them missed 4 three-pointers and 4 rebounds, scoring only 16 points and 3 rebounds. The plus and negative value was even more terrible -40, setting a new historical low in the finals since the 1997 live broadcast era. His strong performance in the previous linkage was gone.

Jaylen Williams did not give the team the offensive threat he deserved, and his contribution to the defensive end was extremely limited. Especially in the process of switching to Halliburton, he made too many mistakes, which led to the team being attacked and crushed by the Pacers in the second quarter, causing the Thunder to quickly fall behind the Pacers by more than 20 points. Then he made a crazi blow at the start of the third quarter, not a single minute for 5 minutes and 03 seconds, which made the game lose its suspense in advance. It was also the reason why the Thunder fell behind 30 points in the third quarter and completely surrendered in the final quarter.

Homegren is the other side of the Thunder who needs to take the blame. Because Alexander was strictly guarded at the beginning, Homegren took on the team's offensive banner, and he and Harten took the lead in scoring continuously through the inside to successfully open up the offensive situation for the Thunder. I thought Homegren would take over the game gradually, but he lost his chain and made a frantically in the subsequent games. He made 0 of 5 points in the second quarter, which was the main reason why the Pacers widened the gap. In the second half of the game, Homgren's weakness on the court was further amplified. He was unable to keep up with the Pacers on both offense and defense, and could not play to his advantages in the inside on the offense. On the defensive end, whether it was Siakam, Nesmith or Substitute Topin could easily name the name. Therefore, Thunder head coach Dagnot replaced Homegren very early, and when he left the court, the Thunder broke the scoring drought, which shows his embarrassing situation.

The Thunder once chased within 20 points, but after Homegren made the game in the second half of the quarter, the Pacers quickly seized the opportunity to hit a 15-3 offensive climax, and let Shepard hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer, causing the Thunder to fall behind by 30 points at the end of the third quarter, and the game was completely lost. In the end, Homegren could only sit on the bench with the rest of the main players, watching the team swallow a heavy loss. Homegren's data was frozen in 2 of 9, 0 of 3 three-pointers, and only scored 4 points and 6 rebounds. After the game, Homegren rushed to the hot search list in the United States, and many fans criticized him, believing that he was too soft on the court and could not resist the Pacers' impact. In fact, Homgren struggled to perform throughout the finals. His shooting percentage was only 35.2%, and his three-point shooting percentage was a terrible 11.7%. He only made 4 assists in total but made 10 turnovers. This is also a major reason why the Thunder fell into a tiebreak situation, and Homgren is to blame.

As the regular season champion, the Thunder did not play the imaginary dominance in the finals, and Jaylen Williams' unstable performance and Homegren's downturn are the main reasons. Next, the Thunder will usher in a tiebreak battle, which is a cruel battle to determine the championship in one battle. If the Thunder wants to successfully win the team's first championship in history at home, it is obvious that Jaylen Williams and Homegren will both bring enough contributions to the team and share Alexander's offensive and defensive pressure.
