If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 96
"The goal of this season is the playoffs, and we will do it."

"All the fans please support us a lot, next is Kevin's talent show..."

"This is our usual training ground. After training every day, we will also practice shooting...and single-handedly to relax."

"Today, the Thunder Team Heads-Up Cup has a lofty goal, and that is... the snack after training."

In the video, Yi Jian and other players lead fans to familiarize themselves with their young team in a relaxed way.

They have also canvassed votes many times. With the strength shown by the team this year, they have the confidence to do so.

All-star canvassing is just a small episode in the season, and the most important thing for professional athletes is the game.

On December 12, the Thunder sat at home and ushered in a challenge from the Warriors.

The Warriors are still a team that is strong offensively and weak defensively, and achieves the ultimate team, but there are some changes in the players.

The previous boss of the team, Baron Davis, left. After the team renewed Ellis, they introduced Corey Maggette, and continued to attack from outside.

However, Ellis was killed and injured in the summer, which caused problems for the Warriors lineup.

After the start of the season, they could only quickly find a way to make a trade in exchange for Crawford.

But Crawford's sixth-man style of play, he came to play the organization and couldn't save the Warriors at all.

This season, the Warriors can be said to have fallen before they even started.

However, the Warriors were a blessing in disguise, and Curry was selected in the future, and they don't know how to evaluate their luck.

The Warriors have a problem with their lineup now, but their offensive power is nothing to say.

After the game started, they were attacking and defending at a high pace, and everyone was able to seize the opportunity to score.

The Warriors play like this, but when they are crazy, they can kill any opponent.

It's not without reason that they were able to black eight two years earlier.

But because the defensive end is extremely bad, they can also lose to any opponent.

In this game, the two teams started off against each other, and Yi Jian and Durant also played very easily.

It is also a team with excellent offensive power, but there are still differences between the Thunder and the Warriors.

The Warriors don't have good organizers, but everyone has points. This is the power of the system. Sometimes it is not necessary for a defender to pass a good ball.

As for the Thunder, Yi Jian and Durant are killing all sides, and when they encounter such a weak defensive team, they will score all kinds of points.

The rest of the team is supporting the two. Even if the opponent's defense is weak, not everyone will attack desperately.

Which way is good or not depends on which team can do better.

But the Thunder's model will be more stable at critical moments, after all, stars have different abilities.

In addition, a team without defense is a gamble, and it is difficult to have the last laugh in the playoffs.

The head coach of the Warriors, Old Nelson, is very famous and is the coach of Qiansheng, but he has no championship.

He has many classic tactics. It can be said that he does not have this ambition, but if competitive sports is not the pursuit of final victory, it can only be said that he is not doing his job properly.

The current Warriors are like this, with the league's top offensive power, but there is no hope for the playoffs.

Thunder is now on the path of both offense and defense, which is the kingly way.

It's just a little different from Yi Jian's previous thinking. He hopes that the defensive master who assists him is still growing, or he is not in the lineup. He will become a barrier for the Thunder's defense.

The Thunder's offensive tactics combined with stars will be more stable at critical moments, but they are not the Warriors' opponents during the rotation period. The Warriors' tactics have unearthed the offensive power of role players.

The first two teams came and went, and when Yi Jian and Durant rested, the Thunder couldn't keep up with the Warriors' rhythm, and their defensive system hadn't been built yet, so the Warriors took the lead all of a sudden.

"Following the rhythm of the attacking team is really not a good choice." Yi Jian said while sitting on the sidelines.

On the field, Durant's personal data is still improving, but the team is a bit dangerous.

After Yi Jian came on the field, he also scored in various ways, but it was difficult to narrow the score gap.

After the rhythm of the two sides was raised, his defensive ability was suddenly useless.

The Warriors' style of play rarely stays on the ground to solve problems.

Maybe it's because the Warriors' defense is so poor that a team like the Thunder, whose system has not been fully perfected, will accidentally enter their rhythm.

After all, as long as they enter their rhythm, it will be easy for the Thunder to score on the offensive end.

However, after all, this is an area that opponents are more familiar with.

During the intermission, Yi Jian suggested: "We can't be led by the nose by them, we have to stabilize the rhythm."

Their head coach Brooks also said: "Our defense needs to be better."

In fact, the Thunder's defense is fairly careful, but because of rhythm, many balls cannot be defended.

Yi Jian believes that as long as they slow down in the second half, he will be able to show his strength on both offense and defense in the paint.

After all, the current Warriors are not particularly strong in three-pointers, and they often need to hit the inside.

After the defensive awareness is improved, Yi Jian's defense assistance will definitely play a role.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Thunder consciously controlled the rhythm.

In this case, Yi Jian and Durant's offense was not affected much, but the Warriors had problems.

The Warriors also responded quickly, and they quickly adjusted their personnel.

However, the Thunder has already caught up with the score.

It's a pity that the Thunder can't continue during the rotation period. Now the main players in the Thunder's bench lineup, Watson and Collison, are not very adapted to the rhythm of the Warriors.

This game looked like it was going to be another wave, but after Yi Jian and Durant returned to the court, everyone realized that there was a clear gap between the strengths of the two teams.

The fighting power between the stars of the two teams is not at the same level at all.

"Oh, Durant hit a three-pointer again, and he feels hot today."

"Yi Jian's dunk is completely unstoppable."

"In this Thunder game, it's Durant's turn to score 40+."

"Yi Jian also has a large double-double and has 4 blocks."

"Beautiful, there is no hope for the Warriors now."

"In the fourth quarter of the decisive victory, both Yi Jian and Durant scored in double figures. The Thunder is already a real strong team."

Durant had 41 points and 10 rebounds, and Yi Jian had 29 points and 13 rebounds. Before they knew it, the Thunder had won six consecutive victories.

After the game, Yi Jian and Durant exchanged commercial blows.

"You know, Kevin can hit shots easily in front of any defender."

"Yi's impact is invincible, and I don't see anyone stopping him."

"Kevin continues to improve on the defensive end, he's an All-Star."

"Yi can rest assured that the inside team will not let the opponent succeed easily, and he can dominate the penalty area."

The two scored 40+ in turn, and many fans discussed whether the two of them can also be called a superstar combination.

And the Thunder's winning streak is not over yet.

With the team's winning streak, the run-in has become more and more smooth.
