NBA starts from the strongest 3D

Chapter 48, Durant vs. Durant!

Jeff Van Gundy said: "In addition to offense, we should not ignore his defense. His opponents will perform worse than usual, whether it is on the ball or off the ball. , Zhou did very well.”

Mark Jackson said: "Yes, you look at these one-on-one defenses. He did a great job. It is difficult for offensive players to score against him one-on-one."

Mark Jackson released the offensive screen of Webster and Weaver trying to single Zhou Hang.

These attacks undoubtedly ended in failure.

McBrin said: "In fact, in addition to discussing him as the best rookie, we can also discuss whether he will become the best sixth man. If Zen Master keeps him on the bench, he is also a strong contender for this award. .”

All three nodded in approval.

ESPN is still touting Zhou Hang's performance.

Zhou Hang's recent performance is too flashy.

Even when the Lakers are absent from the Twin Towers, the Lakers are still a strong enemy, Zhou Hang contributed a lot.

However, some outsiders praised Zhou Hang, and some were unhappy with Zhou Hang.

For example Durant.

Durant had been occupying the first place in the rookie rankings before, but in the latest rankings, he was actually crushed by Zhou Hang.

Durant is the No. 2 pick, while Zhou Hang is just a second-round pick.

Durant hadn't even heard of Zhou Hang's name before the previous seven or eight games.

Durant averaged 20 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game this season. Now he feels that his efforts for a season have been denied.

In the Sonics' pregame press conference against the Lakers.

When Durant was interviewed by reporters, he said to Zhou Hang: "Zhou Hang? Who is he? Sorry, I don't know him."

Durant's interview was full of arrogance.

Such remarks made the media in Los Angeles instantly happy.

The media are convinced that Durant is upset with Zhou Hang.

A reporter who supported Zhou Hang couldn't help saying: "Zhou is the hottest rookie recently. He ranked first in the rookie rankings and scored 20+ in nine consecutive games."

Durant said: "Is it difficult to do 9+ in 20 games? I can do it too. It is not difficult to hit these data."

The reporter in Los Angeles responded to Durant: "Are you dissatisfied because he surpassed you in the rookie rankings?"

Durant said: "I never cared about the list."

not give a damn about?
Who believes?

The media was speechless.

During the rookie period, Durant was leveling up in the Supersonics, and the Supersonics were also rebuilding around Durant.

In terms of record, the Supersonics are the second-to-last, and even the Lakers, who are absent from the Twin Towers, have the upper hand against them.

After Zhou Hang learned of Durant's interview remarks, Zhou Hang said: "Since he doesn't know me, he will remember me after tonight."

Zhou Hang is really not afraid of the current Durant. The current Durant is not so incomprehensible on the offensive end. Many people can guard against him. Zhou Hang believes that he can too.

The strength of the Sonics is not strong, and their goal this season is not the playoffs, they just want to get a good draft pick.

Staples Arena.

night!

Although the Lakers are playing against an underdog tonight, the arena is still full.

During the warm-up, the camera pointed at Zhou Hang and Durant many times.

Before the game, the media fired up the smell of gunpowder between the two.

After a while, the starting players of both sides stayed on the court.

Sonics: Watson, Durant, Jeff Green, Johan Pedro, Nick Collison.

Lakers: Fisher, Kobe, Walton, Radmanovich, Odom
TNT is responsible for explaining the game is Barkley and Smith.

Zhou Hang played very well recently, but he was still placed on the bench by Zen Master.

Before the game, Zen master also specifically asked Zhou Hang to communicate with him about the rotation. Zen master emphasized that Zhou Hang's replacement was not because of his lack of strength, but because the Lakers wanted him to lead the second team.

Zhou Hang expressed his support for Zen Master's work.

It doesn't matter much to Zhou Hang whether he starts first or not, the time guarantee is enough.

After the game started, the two teams fell into a fierce confrontation.

Although the Lakers' starting lineup does not have twin towers, they will not fall behind against the Sonics.

Kobe's successive offenses succeeded, and Kobe's defense against Durant was also great. The Sonics' scoring was mainly due to Jeff Green and Collison.

The Lakers had a slight advantage during the starting lineup matchup.

This is a rare situation where Zhou Hang did not fall behind when he appeared on the stage.

At 3 minutes and 11 seconds into the first quarter, Zhou Hang replaced Fisher, Kobe and Wharton with Farmar and Vujacic.

The Supersonics also had a rotation, but Durant and Jeff Green didn't go down. Carlesimo wanted Durant and Jeff Green to lead the team to chase points.

"Zhou, you go to guard against KD." Zen Master explained to Zhou Hang.

"No problem, leave him to me." Zhou Hang nodded.

Zhou Hang also wants to leave some profound lessons for the current Durant.

After Durant saw Zhou Hang's appearance, his fighting spirit also soared.

Pause ends.

The game continues.

Farmar took the ball to Zhou Hang after halftime.

Durant also played the shooting guard position, and the two faced each other directly.

Zhou Hang leaned over on the right side for three threats.

Durant is taller than Zhou Hang, and Zhou Hang can't directly pull him out.

Zhou Hang's speed is not absolutely sure to get rid of Durant.

Zhou Hang didn't force it, but called for cover.

Odom quickly put on.

Durant was blocked by Odom, and Zhou Hang dribbled the ball laterally.

Collison didn't come out in time, Zhou Hang moved sideways to observe and chose a drifting mid-range jumper.

Basketball draws a wonderful arc!
"Shh!"

16:20.

Durant was very depressed when the ball was blocked by Odom. He shouted at Zhou Hang: "Come one-on-one, don't cover the kind."

Zhou Hang shot back at Durant and said, "Damn it, this is a competition, not a heads-up game, no wonder your record is so bad."

Du Xiaoshuai: "."

Hairy?

Supersonic attack.

Durant held the ball on the right side, so he didn't need to cover, and wanted to forcefully hit Zhou Hang.

Now Durant's dribbling center of gravity is very high, Zhou Hang directly stepped forward to press.

Durant failed to pass Zhou Hang, but was forced by Zhou Hang to stagger and almost dropped the ball.

Durant hurriedly dribbled back, trying to open up space to break through Zhou Hang.

Zhou Hang's absolute speed can't get rid of Durant, and likewise, Durant's speed can't get rid of Zhou Hang.

Durant's continuous dribble changes direction.

Left side!

Right!

Zhou Hang's death entanglement is not a display either, and every time he reverses Durant's change of direction and breaks through the crossbar.

After Durant changed direction and failed to make a breakthrough, he faced Zhou Hang's forced jumper directly from the three-point line!
Although there was no block, Zhou Hang interfered as much as he could.

"frame!"

Durant hit the ball with iron!

The rebound was taken by Odom.

Zhou Hang was about to go down when Durant made a shot. Odom saw Zhou Hang who was about to go down, and directly passed a long pass.

Zhou Hang didn't dribble after receiving a long pass from Odom, and directly held the ball with one hand and took a long stride to face the empty basket.

16:22.

Zhou Hang waved his finger at Odom to celebrate.

Zhou Hang's quick subconscious is also top-notch!
