The NBA begins with blowing up Wade

Chapter 111 111 It's time to prove yourself, Gordon!
'Damn, hate! '

At the Staples Center, Durant couldn't help roaring in his heart as he watched the basketball hit the hoop again!
He obviously had a chance on this ball, and the trajectory of the shot was also very positive, but he just missed!

Guan Yu looked at Durant who had clearly entered a dead end and shook his head indiscriminately.

With such a weak mind, it's no wonder that even if the game skills are almost perfect in the future, they can only rely on teamwork to win the championship.

If I have the strength of Durant...

Guan Yu felt that he could win the championship even if he stayed in Oklahoma City!

With the help of Durant in the second quarter, without too many surprises, the Clippers once again held the lead and expanded the point difference to 16 points!
36 is better than 52!

The Clippers really guarded against the Thunder's shit!
Well, it is worth mentioning that in the second quarter Durant made 5 of 1 shots again, plus 2 of 2 free throws, and only scored 4 points in a single quarter!
In the TNT studio, Barkley watched the music directly.

"Haha, whatever I say, Durant is a jerk.

If he continues to float around like this and play this round of the series, the Thunder won't be able to win another game! "

Kenny Smith smiled wryly and shook his head,

"I don't understand either. The Clippers' defense in the penalty area is so poor that he just doesn't attack."

On the other side, CCTV Sports, Director Zhang directly commented,

"Xiaoyu's defense today is great!
I think those media people have to vote for Xiaoyu when they vote for the best defensive team. "

Yu Jia echoed and said,

"That's right, there aren't many players who made 10 of 2 shots against Durant and missed all four of his three-pointers."

Director Zhang nodded,
"Who said it wasn't?

Previously, Xiaoyu's super-strong offense concealed his contribution on the defensive end. To be honest, the Clippers' perimeter defense was also supported by Xiaoyu. "

In the Clippers home locker room at the Staples Center, Coach DeNagello watched Guan Yu recovering his strength from afar with a look of satisfaction on his face.

He doesn't know how to defend, but he knows how to attack!

Durant's power-off attack shows that Guan Yu's defense against him today is really good!

As for how Guan Yu did all this? ,

Anyway, Coach De Nagro doesn't think it's important...

The other players of the Clippers also looked at Guan Yu with faint admiration.

After all, if they were to defend against Durant, they would definitely not be able to prevent such a good effect.

And... Guan Yu tried his best to defend, and the offensive end gave up the ball.

You know, Guan Yu's possession of the ball is not at 01:30.

Guan Yu, who was paid attention to by everyone, only made 5 of 2 shots and scored 5 points in the first half, but he didn't think about the statistics. What he thinks now is how to let Durant continue to play iron on the outside like this.

Well, in Guan Yu’s opinion, Durant who plays iron on the outside is the best Durant, even better than Westbrook who plays iron on the outside...

After all, it's not that Guan Yu looks down on Westbrook, the fact is that there is a high probability that the human turtle is not allowed.

Guan Yu guessed that when Durant returned to the locker room during the halftime break, there was a high probability that Durant was reminded to go inside to kill, so he had to come up with a countermeasure.

This is actually not difficult for Guan Yu, after all, he is facing... Durant.

On the other side, in the locker room of the away game, Durant, who was already a bit gloomy, showed a look that no strangers should enter.

The rest of Thunder could only sit silently in their seats and care about each other. Those marginalized people and rookies didn't dare to take a breath, for fear of offending today's overlord Thunder.

Low air pressure spread among the Lei Ting people.

At this time, Westbrook, who left coach Brooks, came to Durant as if he didn't realize it, put his arm around his shoulder and said,

"Hey Kevin, I said I can check it out.

He only scored 5 points in the first half! "

An ugly smile tugged at the corner of Durant's mouth.

This may be the only thing he can be happy about tonight, and then...

Thinking about it, it wasn't me who defended Guan Yu like this, but Westbrook, and I didn't seem so happy...

After chatting for a while, Westbrook pretended to say to Durant unintentionally,
"Kevin, the Clippers' interior defense is really as soft as a sweetheart cake. How about we attack their interior more in the second half?"

Although Durant is sensitive in his heart, he is not stupid. He knows very well that his good brother is giving him a step down, so he pushed the boat along the way,

"Well, let's blow up their insiders together!"

Westbrook smiled happily and said,
"Haha, if we brothers work together, we will definitely see immediate results!
Isn't it just a difference of 16 points, we can recover it in minutes!
And you, James, stop confronting Arenas head-to-head, and attack the basket more! "

After speaking, Westbrook also told his second brother Harden to say.

To Durant and Westbrook to persuade him, to Harden, Westbrook spoke directly.

After all, Harden's status and psychology are different from Durant's.

Although Wei Shao has a reckless temper, he is very careful!
Harden, who had been pricking up his ears to eavesdrop, saw that Westbrook was talking about him, and was afraid of being called into a meeting, so he immediately replied,

"No problem, I'm good at this."

The ugly look on Coach Brooks' face not far away eased a little after seeing this scene.

As long as Durant is willing to attack inside, they still have a chance in this game!

As a result, after the start of the second half, Coach Brooks was silent.

Westbrook started to kill the inside to score points, but Durant...

Still shooting from the outside!

Coach Brooks really wants to curse!

Durant, you are attacking inside!

On the court, it's not that Durant doesn't want to attack inside, it's just...

"If I were you, I wouldn't shoot outside. After all, the touch tonight is really not very good."

"Learn from Westbrook. When there is no basket on the outside, you should attack the basket."

"Look, Durant, Harden is also attacking the basket, stop slamming on the outside."

Guan Yu's trash talk, which seemed to be a sincere reminder, directly put Durant on hold.

He is Kevin. The king of offense. Durant, he is up to him, he can't help it!

then……

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

In this quarter, Durant once again contributed four three-point strikes and two mid-range strikes.

In a single quarter, Durant's shooting percentage seemed to have improved compared to the previous two quarters, but without a single free throw, his scoring in this quarter was even comparable to that of the second quarter!

When this quarter is over, even if the Clippers' shooting percentage drops in this quarter, they are still 58 to 73, controlling the point difference to more than 15 points!
Durant, who only scored 4 points in a single quarter, is obviously not enough to lead the Thunder to narrow the gap.

In the fourth quarter, Durant seemed to finally wake up and start killing the inside line, Westbrook continued to break through and make kills, and the Thunder began to score points quickly!
But, it's too late!
In addition, Guan Yu began to exert strength from outside the three-point line. In the end, the Clippers won the game 98 to 87!

Big score 2 to 1!

The Clippers once again led the Thunder by one position, and firmly held the home court advantage in their hands!
However, Guan Yu, who won the game, glanced at the empty seat on the sidelines and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

'Well~ She still didn't come after all! '

At the same time, Scarlett Johansson, who still couldn't make it to the scene, could only silently apologize to Guan Yu in her heart.

'Next time, I will definitely be there. '

……

The next day, in a training facility in Los Angeles, Durant was constantly practicing three-point shooting with the help of his personal shooting trainer.

He knew that he didn't feel good in the last game, but the 8-of-0 three-point shooting still stimulated his sensitive heart.

Coupled with the fact that some fans took his performance in the three-point contest as an issue, Durant couldn't bear it even more.

You know, in this year's three-point contest, Durant made the second-worst record in the history of the three-point contest-only scoring 6 points.

As for the bottom one, it is Michael. For the first time, I hope that this record will not have my 5 points.

Durant was already proud and arrogant, how could he swallow this breath!

So, there was this scene of him practicing three-pointers.

After knowing this situation, Coach Brooks could only sigh again.

But he can't say that Durant's approach is completely wrong, because Durant, who has regained his touch, does have the ability to change the situation of the game by attacking from the outside.

In addition to expecting Durant to regain his touch, Coach Brooks also arranged for other players to practice three-pointers. You must know that their three-pointers in the last game were only 17 of 1, which was extremely eye-catching.

Although there are reasons for the Clippers to pounce on the perimeter, such a three-point shooting percentage is unacceptable to any team.

In addition, Coach Brooks also gave special instructions to players in charge of organization such as Westbrook and Harden.

In the last game, their tandem was really poor, with 0 assists in the first quarter and only 11 assists in the game is also an important reason for their loss!
I have to say that Coach Brooks did a good job summarizing after the game. As for whether the players can adjust and improve in the next game...

Coach Brooks can only say that he is doing his best anyway.

The Thunder are summing up, and the Clippers' coaching staff is not idle either.

In fact, with a big score of 2 to 1, they are not much more at ease than the Thunder coaching staff.

Because although the current home field advantage is in their hands, as long as they lose in the end, the home field advantage will be returned to the Thunder. At that time, they will go to Oklahoma City to play the battle of Tianwangshan. The situation can be said to be very bad.

Therefore, they are very crisis-conscious, and they are also summarizing, discovering problems, and making various possible plans.

"Off, if Durant regains his touch in the next game, you still have to take more responsibility on the offensive end."

During the interval of training, coach Denagro discussed with Guan Yu.

Coach De Nagro may be the least happy one when the Clippers won the last game.

Because scoring 98 points in a single game is really too low in his opinion, and De Nagro knows very well that the Thunder's offense cannot be so stretched.

If the Thunder regain their crosshairs and they still have this kind of offensive efficiency, they will probably be the losers!

Therefore, he must discuss a countermeasure with Guan Yu, the team's offensive core!
"Okay, Coach.

If Durant finds an outside touch in the next game, let Gordon guard him.

It doesn't matter whoever defends him when he regains his touch.

And I put more energy on the offensive end, which should help the team more. "

Listening to Guan Yu's words, Coach De Nagro nodded.

He thought so too.

"Okay... what?"

Gordon, who was dragged into a private chat by Coach De Nagro and said that he might be asked to guard Durant, was stunned.

"Coach, he's a head taller than me, I..."

Coach De Nagro was silent for a moment, then patted Gordon on the shoulder,

"Eric, I know this is a difficult task for you, but this is indeed the best arrangement for the team!"

Gordon, who did not choose to accept, continued to struggle and said,

"I know, but..."

Coach DeNagello patted him on the shoulder, interrupted quickly, and said,

"It's nothing to worry about, Eric, it's settled.

At the critical moment, I will arrange other people or let Reguan to defend, don't worry so much. "

After finishing speaking, Coach De Nagro ignored Gordon's pleading eyes and left.

In a blink of an eye, Gordon saw Arenas who was eavesdropping, and immediately thought about it.

"Gilbert, I'm not feeling well. Can you come and start tonight?"

Arenas ignored Gordon at all, but walked away shaking his head, muttering,

"Hmm~ Great White (shark) seems to be more edible recently, and I have to get some more endorsements, otherwise I really can't afford it."

Gordon wanted to cry but had no tears.

"God, make Durant almost feel bad tonight!"

……

"The Thunder played very fiercely tonight!"

That night, in the TNT studio, Kenny Smith couldn't help but say,

"Leading by 2 points in less than 6 minutes, the Thunder finally broke the curse of digging holes at the beginning."

Barkley looked at the 8-2 score and could only complain helplessly,

"If you want me to say, you should do it yourself. Instead of trusting your teammates, you should trust yourself."

Kenny Smith rejoices,
"That's not what you said in the first few games.

At that time, I remember what you said, but Guan can fully stimulate the offensive potential of teammates..."

Barkley interjected,

"This moment, that moment!

The Thunder's defense is so tough today, and the Clippers can only rely on him, and Durant..."

On the Clippers bench, Gordon showed a helpless look on his face, but the words of head coach De Nagro still got into his ears.

"Eric, Durant feels good tonight and has hit two mid-range shots, so you go to guard him next."

Gordon immediately showed an aggrieved expression and looked at Guan Yu. At this moment, only Guan Yu can save him.

Guan Yu, walked over and patted his shoulder,

"Believe in yourself, Eric, you can do it."

Baron Davis also walked over and patted Gordon on the shoulder,

"Eric, it's time to prove your ability on the defensive end!"

Griffin... Habitually showed a smirk,
"Come on Eric, maybe Durant suddenly lost his touch?"

As for Kamen, there was a silence,
"You, do it yourself..."

Gordon: "...

Sin! "
