NBA: Ultimate Tormentor

Chapter 213 The art of basketball is self-destruction!
"drop!"

"drop!"

"drop!"

The whistles in the first quarter and the first half of the second quarter made the game fragile.

Even some older fans were yawning.

To know.
The game between the Hornets and the Nuggets next door started at almost the same time, but everyone else had already started the third quarter, while the second quarter of [Brave Thunder Battle] was only halfway through.

In the past quarter and a half, Qin Dong, Maggette and Harden combined to go to the free throw line 11 times.

Coupled with the inside kills of other players.

Which leads to
Thunder's Nick Collison picked up three fouls early.

Nenad Kostic suffered 2 fouls.

Serge Ibaka committed 1 foul.

Durant and Westbrook each 1 time.

The Warriors are not having a good time either.

Belica committed 2 fouls.

Maggette, who mainly defended James Harden, committed three fouls.

Qin Dong and Curry once each.

At 5 minutes and 45 seconds into the second quarter of the game, after James Harden broke through to the basket, he went straight to Belica, protected him with his excellent upper body strength, and pushed Belica away with his super core strength, picking up the basket. .

"drop!"

The referee's whistle sounded.

Harden's layup after the foul also missed the frame.

Harden, who got to the free throw line, made two free throws.

46: 40!

The Thunder chased the point difference to only 6 points.

"drop!"

At this time, the Warriors requested a timeout.

Counting this foul, Belica has already suffered 3 fouls.

Although Bjelica serves as the team's substitute center in most games, his high golf IQ and good three-point ability can ensure the diversity of the team's tactics.

Don Nelson replaced him with DeAndre Jordan.

Replaced Corey - Maggette, replaced by Sean - Livingston.

Mainly because of excessive physical exertion, Maggette has been attacking the inside and making fouls.

Maggette returned to the bench, drinking Gatorade, his whole body seemed to have been baptized by a storm, and he was sweating profusely.

"Brother, you have to lose at least 5 pounds tonight." Lance Stephenson said in a suit and tie.

"call"

"call"

"Yes, OKC may be young, but they are very tough at heart." Corey Maggette said slowly while panting and looking at James Harden on the court.

After so many years of playing basketball, James Harden is the most 'talented' player Corey Maggette has ever seen.

Yes
Even his teammate Qin Dong can't compare.

Not only is James Harden's technical movements for making fouls natural, but also his facial expressions when making fouls, as if he is telling the referee all the time: "It hurts, it hurts, I really hurt!"

Of course, this is also related to Harden's own character.

Harden is one of the few NBA players without tattoos
It's not that Harden doesn't like it, but he is simply afraid of the pain.

Harden's pain nerves are very sensitive, and his expressions often are not fake.
"Yeah, brother Corey, I feel like your biceps have lost weight due to fatigue." Lance Stephenson said.

"Really?"

"is it?"

Corey Maggette, who had just sat down to relax, quickly measured his biceps with his hands after hearing his junior brother's words.

The more you test, the more you discover
My biceps seem to have gotten really thin.

It wasn't until Corey Maggette asked the staff to find a tape measure, and after measuring it, he found that the size had not changed, that he was completely relieved.

After the pause.

The on-field lineup sent by Thunder coach Brooks:
Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Thabo Sefolosha, Serge Ibaka and Nenad Kostic.

Durant was taken off the court to rest due to physical problems.Warriors lineup:
Stephen Curry, Shaun Livingston, Qin Dong, Anthony Randolph and DeAndre Jordan.

Although Qin Dong hasn't rested for a minute since the start of the game, he doesn't feel tired at all. In addition to his full physical strength, Corey Maggette has carried a lot of possessions.

Maggette has found his true position with the Warriors this season.
That is the role of the bomber who "injures a thousand enemies and damages five hundred himself".

Similar to the 'bomberman' produced by Castle in Age of Empires.

'Deidara' in the Akatsuki organization.

After entering the field, there is only one purpose, and that is to disrupt the opponent's formation.

"Lance, do you know what the art of basketball is?"

"Senior, the art of basketball should be a celebration."

"Idiot, the art of basketball is self-destruction!"

— Corey Deidara Maggette.

Maggette's self-explosion played a big role in the Thunder. Nenad Krstic, the second foul, did not dare to make a move easily. After the timeout, Jordan ate Curry's flying cakes twice in a row, completing the smooth run after the pick-and-roll. Received a dunk in the air.

At this time, the Swiss Army Knife-Sefolosha was facing Qin Dong defensively on the court.

Qin Dong couldn't be locked down in the playoffs last year, and it's even more so now.
When the Thunder focused their defensive resources on Curry and DeAndre Jordan's pick-and-roll, Curry passed a cross pass to Qin Dong who was cutting inside. Sefolosha got ahead of Qin Dong.

This allowed Qin Dong to stop Sofolosha in front of him after receiving the ball.

However, Qin Dong directly changed his back and pushed the Swiss Army Knife to the elbow area. When he found that Ibaka was about to step forward to double-team, he directly shot backward with difficulty.

With a sound of "Shua!", the hollow fell into the net.

In addition to being able to take advantage of Qin Dong's ability to hold the ball, Qin Dong's ability to hold the ball has also given the Thunder a headache.
At 8 minutes and 19 seconds of the second quarter, Qin Dong held an offensive Swiss Army Knife outside the three-point line on the weak side. Jordan on the strong side was screening Curry without the ball, which attracted a lot of offensive firepower to Qin Dong.

The Thunder only had half of Ibaka at the basket.

After Qin Dong simply dribbled the ball from his hips, he dived directly to accelerate the breakthrough. The Swiss Army Knife almost predicted Qin Dong's breakthrough route, but when it came into contact with Qin Dong's right shoulder, his whole body was knocked away.

After rushing to the basket, Ibaka quickly assisted in defense and blocked Qin Dong's breakthrough route.

At the same time, the Thunder quickly rotated defensively.

The rapid defensive rotation makes it difficult for Qin Dong to find open teammates.

after all
Qin Dong's ball-playing ability can only be regarded as average.

But Qin Dong didn't intend to pass it to his teammates.
"Click"

"Zi La La"

Qin Dong suddenly stopped and pulled it out in front of Ibaka.

This was an unexpected move, and most of the defensive players had no time to react.

But Serge Ibaka, who averaged 2.6 blocks per game this season and ranks third among active players, took off almost at the same time. Qin Dong in the air faced the big hand that almost covered his face, and said "Whoosh!" Throw the basketball.

"Shua!"
hit!

TNT live room.

"Wow. This shot is better than KG's jump shot." Charles Barkley said.

"But I have to say that there was a lot of luck in this goal."

"This boy from Congo has been one of the best shot-blockers in the league this season."

"This ball was defended very well, but obviously Qin's luck was better."

Kenny Smith said.

"what?"

"Man, do you think Qin's shot was luck?"

"How about we make a bet?"

Charles - Barkley whole life Road.

"Oh, Sir Charles, how do you want to bet?" Kenny Smith, who wanted to turn over the book, said.

"How about this."

"If Qin can hit three shots like this against Serge Ibaka in tonight's game, how about you wear a lolita suit and marry a donkey?"

Charles Barkley said.

After Kenny Smith thought for 8 seconds, he agreed.

He knows that Qin Dong's current jump shot is pretty good and can even be used as a regular offensive weapon, but the opponent is Serge Ibaka.
The players with the highest DPOY calls this year.

How could Qin Dong get what he wanted in front of Ibaka.
