You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 461 Durant's Misfortune
From the matchup between Wei Xia and Durant, it can be seen that the basketball game is not an inch-long and inch-strong sport in an absolute sense.

Height can determine the upper limit and lower limit of a person at many levels, but if the person with height does not have a good foundation, the upper and lower limits are out of the question.

Wei Xia faced Durant, because of his excellent upper body strength, explosive core strength and unfathomable lower body strength, Durant encountered many unexpected difficulties when facing him.

The complete defeat in the first quarter is proof.

Next, the top priority for the Supersonics is to avoid Durant and Weisha facing each other head-on.

The ball-handler pick-and-roll tactic has not yet become popular in the contemporary era. Except for the Jazz and the Suns, no team likes to use the pick-and-roll as an offensive starting method.

The Sonics want Durant to get rid of Weixia, and it is necessary to regard the pick-and-roll as the main tactic of offense.

In the second quarter, Durant used the pick-and-roll to attack and scored a lot of points when he was misplaced against others.

Seeing his current style of play, Wei Xia has a question.

Does this count as his defensive failure?Durant scored 7 points against others, and scored 9 points in the first half. The trend of scoring in double figures can no longer be stopped.

Wei Xia looked at the Zen master with a questioning meaning.

The Zen master hid his thoughts in the glasses, and Wei Xia couldn't see through his thoughts through the glasses.

When Durant played hard, Weixia gave a moderate response on the offensive end, which was not as dazzling as in the first quarter, but he scored 6 points, the highest in the game with 20 points in the half.

The second quarter is a section where Durant is elated, and it is also a section for Kobe to educate children.

At the beginning, he chose to join the ball from outside the three-point line, which reminds people of the old scenery of No. 8 Kobe.

Do you think he is not scary because he changed to No. 24?This thought is the most terrifying.

Kobe taught how to be a man with three-pointers, and on the offensive end, he resorted to unreasonable strong shots that made opponents terrified.

Supersonic suddenly asked three people to flank him.

"Three people?" Seeing that Kobe insisted on attacking, Wei Xia said with a psychological hint, "Isn't it enough?"

His words made Damien Wilkins tremble beside him, and what happened later was just as Wei Xia said.It's not enough for three people to face Kobe who is in hot form.

The first three to defend Kobe had problems.

Durant claimed to have the agility of a two-meter small forward, but he took Kobe's fake action and easily gave up his defensive position.Wilcox's defense is not a threat.

The hope of the whole village, Jeff Green's defense, somehow made Kobe raise the arc of his shot, which was his biggest and only contribution in this defense.

Bryant aimed not at the center of the rim, but directly below the backboard.

Bang, hit the board.

The Sonics began to despair, and Kobe's unreasonable consecutive heads-up scoring was only halfway through.

Later, the Sonics gave up their resistance and let Durant defend alone.

Kobe actually played back punching, blatantly using his own strength to bully the weak schoolbag Du Zhi.

Durant initially wanted to cover Kobe with height.

He knew that with his body thickness, it would be difficult to resist Kobe's back attack.

Length and width are his advantages, and they must also be used.

But Kobe spins and jumps, and his defense disappears.

The future superstar is only nineteen years old now. In front of Kobe, he stands like an ant, vulnerable to a single blow.

70 is better than 52
The Lakers scored 70 points in the half, playing even more inflated than the small ball era.

Scored 36 points in the first quarter, followed by 34 points in the second quarter. The Sonics on the opposite side scored normally, but they were not as good as the abnormal Lakers.

The game enters a halftime timeout.

Kobe scored only 2 points less than Wei Xia in the half.

The two of them took over the Lakers' game rhythm in the first and second quarters, with a clear division of labor, making it difficult for the Sonics to adapt.

Two teams that are not at the same level, as long as the quality of the game improves, the team with insufficient strength will slip.

Kobe, like Wei Xia, was asked how he felt against Durant for the first time.

Kobe, who was extremely disdainful on the court, affirmed Durant off the court: "Obviously, young talents like KD are the future of the league. It is difficult for us to see anyone with the height, shooting ability and athletic ability like him. He is a future fighter."

If Wei Xia was by his side, he would definitely question: "Mouth! You just said that he is not at the level of Rashad Lewis!"

Wei Xia himself was asked Durant's question by the reporter.

He sincerely gave Durant a high evaluation: "I can point out a bunch of his shortcomings, but he is already an excellent player. In the same league, it is disturbing to have a rookie like him, because his shortcomings can be improved through training. The technical defects that can be practiced are not defects, but just a BUG waiting to be fixed. His future has unlimited possibilities."

Wei Xia, who praised Durant as a flower, didn't know that he was only a third-year player.

He was selected as an All-Star in the second grade and the best team in the third grade. He can't even be regarded as Durant's predecessor. The draft within three times is usually regarded as an era.

He is the goal that Durant needs to work hard to catch up with, but he is "uneasy" because the league has Durant?
His words surprised many people.

Entering the locker room, Phil Jackson, as expected, shifted Durant's responsibility for consecutive scoring through the pick-and-roll offense to Wei Xia.

During that time, the insider on the Lakers field was Jamal Magloire who couldn't get along with Wei Xia.

He can actually bring more disturbance to Durant, and he sometimes behaves very loosely.In the second quarter, he was the only one in the team who was trained by Kobe as a dog.

There is no evidence to prove that he deliberately let Durant score, because it is up to him whether he tries his best or not.

What if he insisted that "I'm a waste, I can't prevent the pick-and-roll"?What's more, the Zen master didn't blame him, only Wei Xia.

It is normal for the Lakers to blame Wei Xia for something.

Wei Xia himself is not angry, there is still a second half anyway.

Make a little wish now.

In the second half, Durant couldn't score a point.

Although the hope is slim, he scored 10 points more than Durant, and it is still slim that Zen Master will not go online to hold his meeting tomorrow.

After the lecture in the locker room, Wei Xia held the hands of Bynum, Odom, Hollins, Turiaf and others.

"You feel your conscience and say, how about me?"

Wei Xia asked.

He hoped these guys answered correctly.

"You are my favorite teammate." Wei Xia was moved by Bynum's answer. If there was no damn next sentence, "with you here, the coach would never give priority to scolding me. I love you, Wish."

Turiaf said shamelessly: "Wish, I love you for the same reason as Andrew."

Odom is less serious than those two.

Since the summer of 2006, he and Wei Xia have been close friends.

"I'll support you in whatever you do," Odom said.

Ryan Hollins' words are the most invigorating: "As long as you are on the court, as long as I am on the court, I am your minion."

"Okay, I'm relieved when you say that."

"What do you want us to do?"

"Kill Durant."

The naive Durant didn't feel the imminent murderous intent.

Seeing him smiling at himself, Wei Xia felt a little sad.What a newcomer, they've just struck up a friendship and are they about to call it a day?
Alas, if only Jackson hadn't given him some orders to limit Durant to single-digit scoring.
Suddenly, Wei Xia thought of a way to preserve Durant's friendship.

That is to keep him from knowing the truth.

His teammates can do anything to Durant, it has nothing to do with him anyway, just like Bruce Bowen and Robert Horry have nothing to do with Tim Duncan, no matter how dirty they are.

Wei Xia entered the third quarter with this thought.

This is also a game that Durant will never forget.

The excitement of this section of the game made him devote a special chapter after retiring to focus on the impact of that section of the game on him, what kind of views he had on life, and the puzzling friendship between him and Wei Xia.

The first act of conflict occurred in the second and a half minutes of the third quarter.

Durant's sharp change of direction swayed Weixia's center of gravity. He was about to take a step forward when Ronnie Turiaf, who was sweeping from a high position, fouled him violently like a pig-killing barbarian.

Durant got down on the spot.

"Aha!" Turiaf proudly raised his hand to claim the foul, "I killed him!"

Durant glared.

Wei Xia also said "dissuade", "Don't do this, Ronnie!"

Wesha often acted on the stage, and Turiaf regarded his reaction at that time as part of the performance.

"God will forgive me, Wish!"

Durant's nightmare begins from now on.

He found that Turiaf was too kind compared to what others had done to him.

Bynum knocked him to the side from the side.

Odom's wonderful pass made a "major mistake" and it was passed to Durant's face.

Ryan Hollins, as a student of Wei Xia, has studied with Wei Xia for so long, so it's time to show his hands to the teacher.

He elbowed Durant from behind and flopped when Durant elbowed him back. The referee whistled. The 19-year-old boy next door fell into a state of madness. He was called a technical foul by the referee for overreacting, twice in a row!

Durant's last memory of this game is that Wei Xia loudly accused his teammates of being despicable in order to defend him.

Since then, he has identified this friend.

Durant's stats on this field are the 9 points that made Weixia breathe a sigh of relief.

Kobe applauded indifferently. It turns out that someone can do this in order not to be scolded. It's amazing.

Durant exited the game, announcing the disappearance of the suspense of the game. The strength gap between the Lakers and the Sonics was too large.

The Sonics, who had lost their fighting spirit, did not intend to avenge Durant. The Lakers quickly completed the harvest and turned the game into garbage time.

In the fourth quarter, Kobe overtook Wei Xia in scoring and became the scoring leader of the game. Wei Xia couldn't bear to use his team to collect statistics after plotting against Durant. After skating for a few minutes, he went down with Kobe after the garbage time came.
