Reborn NBA's Strongest Talent

Chapter 140 140. Fighting the Old Club (for Subscription)
On October 10, after two days of rest, the Thunder traveled to Indiana to challenge the Pacers.

George returned to Indiana, and Oladipo and Sabonis also faced their old clubs. This game is destined to be extraordinary.

When adapting to the venue and warming up before the game, Richard saw Sabonis and Oladipo, who hadn't met since the awards ceremony. Richard was traveling in China when the deal between the two and George was in progress.

Sabonis was a little excited to see Richard from a distance. The relationship between the two was still very good before, and they had a lot of beautiful cooperation.

But Sabonis withdrew the smile on his face in an instant, because Oladipo followed Sabonis' eyes and looked over.

The eyes are full of hatred.

Sabonis felt the sharpness in Oladipo's eyes, and was too scared to look up and continue to look over, standing aside like a child who did something wrong, silently patting the ball.

Richard was already going to say hello, but Oladipo's eyes stopped Richard.

It's a monstrous hatred, a kind of hostility that has you but not me, and the resentment that makes Richard freeze into ice.

Richard shivered for no reason, stopped wanting to walk over, and also looked at Oladipo from a distance.

Oladipo's frown has not been relieved, and he turned around and went into training.

"Richard, want to go over and say hello?" Westbrook walked to Richard's side, and also looked at the two teammates from last season.

"No, I was not welcomed." Richard smiled wryly.

"The NBA is a business league, and one day we may become rivals." Westbrook comforted Richard.

This is not because they have become opponents. It is normal for each to compete with each other. Harden and Westbrook can also have a good relationship.But the way Oladipo looks at himself is not looking at the opponents who are their own masters, but looking at the enemy of life and death.

"If that time comes, I will definitely not keep my hand." Richard chuckled and turned to look at Westbrook.

Westbrook waved his fist, "Then let me see if the footsteps you learned can pass me!"

Are you still angry about this?
George also did not interact with his former teammates. This summer he made it clear that he wanted to play for the Lakers. George has offended the Pacers and its fans.

As expected, George was booed by the fans from the moment he entered the arena.

"Go to the Lakers, you coward!"

"You're not a PG, you're self-centered, you're a PIG!"

……

If it weren't for the league's prohibition of many words and actions, George would have suffered more serious verbal violence.

But just that, George also had a lot of mood swings.

Looking absent-minded, his eyes swept towards the auditorium from time to time, seeing his name being made into a slogan for complaining, George's eyes were not focused at all.

"Paul, you have to be steady. Being booed is a very common thing. If you can't even stand this, then just stop playing." Westbrook persuaded George in his usual style.

But for someone with a less extroverted personality like George, this kind of comfort is useless.

Moreover, the boos Westbrook faced were from his opponents, while George faced the people who had been supporting him before turning against him. This feeling is completely different.

Many of these people who booed themselves are familiar faces. They used to cheer for their performances...

With uneasy emotions, the game between the Thunder and the Pacers officially started.

Both Sabonis and Oladipo have entered the starting lineup, and the Pacers recognize their talents very much.

From this point of view, it is really hard to say which party made money in George's deal.

Oladipo and Richard faced each other, and Richard felt very uncomfortable all over, because the way Oladipo looked at him was still scary.

"Li Cha! I hate you so much!" Richard didn't expect Oladipo to take the initiative to talk to him.

I use a nickname to call myself, which is used by close people, but Oladipo said he hates himself, what a contradictory mood.

When Richard was still surprised by Oladipo's words, he continued: "We joined the Thunder in the same year, we are both shooting guards, and have almost the same ability, but I was squeezed out of the team by you because of injuries."

Oladipo looked at Richard's eyes almost killing people.

uh... ah... this...

How should this be explained?
No matter how you explain it, it's useless!

When will it be the turn of a substitute to speak for the team's operations!

It is the idea of ​​the top management that the Thunder considers replacing Oladipo in terms of transaction value or glass attributes. How can this have anything to do with Richard?

If Oladipo can't figure out the twists and turns in the middle, it must be useless to explain.

Besides, if the Thunder wanted to trade Richard at that time, they could have signed for 2000 million a year, which would have directly matched George's salary without adding a Sabonis.

This also requires the Pacers to be willing. The rookies who have just played for a year have performed exceptionally well. There are too many people who are at their peak when they debut. There is no problem and no loss for the team to use the rookie contract to test, but they will not lock themselves up with such a high annual salary.

The Pacers aren't that stupid.

But the resentful person in front of him must not understand.

As soon as Oladipo finished speaking, the referee had already thrown the ball high and the game began.

Sabonis and Adams jumped the ball and turned the ball into their own half, and Oladipo shot out like an arrow.

Oladipo is a poor man, a poor man who lives in his own inner world, and when he opens his heart to accept others, he will be abandoned and hurt very badly.

At this time, Richard understood part of Oladipo's thoughts, and had only pity for him.

But the game has already started, and none of these emotions can affect Richard. Concentrate on the game, this is Richard's request to himself!
Quickly catching up with Oladipo, Richard will not let the players he defends score easily.

Facing Richard's defense, Oladipo asked for the ball.

Darren Collison gave it back. After George left, the Pacers seemed to train Oladipo as the team leader.

Is Oladipo still treating himself as a substitute who can't defend?The fast break is gone and you still need to play singles?

Richard was a little angry, and waited for Oladipo in a defensive posture.

Oladipo received the ball and accelerated to break through from the bottom line. This acceleration... is much faster than Oladipo before the injury.

Richard is not the only one who has improved.

Richard chased with all his strength, and he still hadn't lost his defensive position.

Oladipo made a sudden stop, opened up the space, and got up to shoot a jumper.

Richard was too late to defend, and the ball had already flown to the basket.

"Dang" is good to hit the iron.

However, Oladipo's quick and neat movements surprised Richard. If it weren't for the excessive force, Oladipo's breakthrough would be perfect.

The ball didn't make the shot, but Oladipo's expression didn't change a bit. Is this going to be a cold-faced killer?
Westbrook attacked with the ball and passed the first ball to George. Show an attitude in front of his old club and break through the inner demon.

George received the ball unambiguously, as if he didn't hear the boos all over the sky and rushed with the ball!
"Beep!"

Offensive foul!

The Thunder players were stunned. It wasn't that they didn't hear it, but that they didn't come out amid boos. They charged inside and knocked the Pacers' defender half a meter away.

This is definitely not the home whistle. On the contrary, it is a bit biased towards George. This breakthrough is suspected of raising an elbow.

"Paul, what are you doing? Wake up!" Westbrook yelled at George.

George shuddered and seemed to be waking up, but at this moment, louder boos broke out from the audience, completely drowning George's spirit.

At this time, Oladipo approached Richard for the second time, and still forced a breakthrough.Facing Richard's tough defense, he scored a layup.

Then he grinned at Richard and squeezed his nose vigorously, "Come on, Richard, we have never seriously won or lost in Thunderclap."

"Victor, is he provoking you?" Westbrook was about to catch the ball, and he was not surprised by the state of the two, or he had known for a long time that the two would have a matchup.

Richard smiled slightly and ran to the front field.The team's victory or defeat is more important, and he is only the third scoring point, unlike Oladipo who is now the core of tactics.

"Go, give him a response." Westbrook took the serve and passed the ball to Richard before halftime.

For the boss's support, Richard naturally accepted it with a smile.

Hitting back, Richard forced Oladipo into the penalty area, and with a simple turnaround jumper, Richard also got his first score.

"Are you so strong?" Oladipo had no expression on whether he scored or not, but reacted greatly to Richard's changes.

Richard spread his hands and backed away, this beep is pretending, must be given full marks.

Oladipo gritted his teeth and continued his individual singles.

Richard responded defensively and offensively.

The confrontation between the two became a highlight of the game.

But it's not the biggest highlight. The biggest highlight is George, who was surrounded by boos. He only played 4 minutes in the first quarter and was replaced by Donovan because of two fouls.

Patrick Patterson came on the field early, just to try whether he can play the starting position. Grant's performance in the last three games has not been stable or outstanding.

Did the Pacers push Sabonis to the center position to allow Sabonis to inherit his father's "world height" ability?But it is obvious that Sabonis is very uncomfortable with this position. He made 3 of 0 shots in the first quarter and failed to score.

Westbrook saw that George fell into a crisis of being booed and fouled, and Richard fought hard against the opponent's main force. The team's offense opened the score and only fell on Westbrook.

Westbrook will not shirk this responsibility. In addition to passing the ball to Richard, Westbrook also scored 4 points on 3 of 7 shots, which is rare and efficient.

But Oladipo scored 7 points on 5 of 14 shots in the first quarter!
