Chapter 534 The Biggest Level in the Winning Streak

In the first month, the three insiders of the Clippers were only in the running-in period, but they had no idea what failure was.In almost every game, someone from them will play a wonderful performance guarding the inside.And Gorgui Dieng's performance after the initial run-in is also getting better and better. In the first month, he averaged 8.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game. For an insider who averaged only about 20 minutes per game Said that this data is already very good, although the vast majority of his playing time is also the opposite bench lineup.

The 14-game winning streak in the first month of the opening is only one step away from the NBA's opening winning streak record. 15 The Rockets are kept together.Except for the Celtics in ancient times, only the Rockets can do it, and that season, the Rockets won the final championship.

第一个月的西部月最佳也理所当然的落在了安生的手中，场均34.2分7.4助攻7.1篮板4.1抢断和2.1次封盖，再加上之前的两次5X5的

It's just that in the 15th game, the Clippers encountered a problem. The Clippers' previous 14 consecutive victories did not have a dominant performance. The reason is obvious. They did not play against a team of their own level.

In their No.15 winning streak, their opponent is the Oklahoma City Thunder, a top team with the Thunder's second junior. It has to be said that the Thunder will definitely not be inferior to the Clippers in terms of training new players. , or even more, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka, now the core framework of the Thunder theme is all composed of their own draft, not to mention the current James Harden and Jeff Green are also all produced by them.

And last year, they once again suffered from the Clippers in the playoffs, which made them determined to change on the original basis. One of the reasons for the last failure was because Kevin Durant Defensively bullied, but obviously, you can't replace Kevin Durant, the other 29 teams in the league are probably waiting for you to make this stupid decision.

Therefore, another biggest defensive weakness, Kevin Martin, was called a replacement. To be honest, Kevin Martin did not ask for a high salary. The Timberwolves took him in only 4 years and 2700 million. For a sixth man averaging 15 points per game, it is considered a very cheap price, but what the Thunder regret more is letting go of James Harden!

And this year, they decided to start with the reform of the defense first. They promoted Reggie Jackson to become the new sixth man, and in the free market they won Caron Jackson with a basic salary of one year. Butler, it's simple. The desire for a championship made the former All-Star go to the Thunder at such a price. In the free market, there are many teams that offer him mid-level contracts.

Therefore, this year's Thunder is stronger than last year's, and Kevin Durant is also more terrifying than last year.This year, his scoring methods have become more diversified, and his scoring efficiency has also improved significantly. He even averaged 35.6 points per game in the previous games and beat An Sheng to become the scoring leader. Of course, this is also related to An Sheng's playing time. There is a great relationship.After all, it is always three quarters to clock in and get off work. How can it be so easy to score high points? It is not easy to average 32 points per game in an average of about 34.2 minutes per game.

The Thunder's record is slightly worse than that of the Clippers, but the record of 11 wins and 3 losses is enough to make them second only to the Clippers in the Western Conference.For the Clippers, this new Thunder team is a very strong challenge. Caron Butler has made up for the Thunder's defensive weaknesses very well, and at the age of 33, he can still perform within a certain period of time. An elite defense.

As for the upcoming battle at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in the Oklahoma City Thunder, it is considered by Thunder fans to be their revenge battle, and they are ready to deal with their elimination by the Clippers last season. Revenge, and the best revenge is to end the Clippers' winning streak at this time.

The Thunder fans are very excited, and with their continued support for the Thunder, the current Chesapeake Energy Arena is full of Thunder fans. This battle is not at all compared to last year's Western Conference final Small.

"Ann! I won't let you get away with it this time!" Kevin Durant was dribbling the ball at the top of the arc. It can be seen that this summer, Kevin Durant has a lot of knowledge about his dribbling on the offensive end. Much improved, with his dribble lower and more consistent.

Among the 5 kings of individual statistics this season, steals are probably the least suspenseful. Anson's average of 4.1 steals per game is beyond the reach of all steal masters behind him, and no other player even has more than 3. With him Chris Paul of a team used to be the steals king, but when he was asked to evaluate Anson's steals ability, he just smiled and said, don't call me the steals king in front of Anson, I am afraid that after two seasons, his career The total number of steals is more than that of me who has played for 10 years.

But now the steals king has no good way to complete the steal against Kevin Durant. He retreats and adds a three-pointer. The game just started, and Kevin Durant scored with a super difficult Expressed to An Sheng his confidence in winning this game.

It’s not terrible for Kevin Durant to have such a performance on the offensive end. This is what he can do. Even if he is in front of the two-time best defensive player Anson, there is no way to face such a difficult shot. , But what's even more frightening is that Kevin Durant also did a good job on the defensive end.

The defensive end has just been hit by Kevin Durant in this way, so he will naturally find a way to hit the next ball back. In the middle distance, the Golden Rooster is independent. This should be a shot that is difficult to interfere. An Sheng's shot No problem at all.But the problem is that Kevin Durant maximized his wingspan and height advantages at this time.

"Do you want to win a championship? Then practice your defense this summer. Only offense can't win a championship!" What Kevin Durant said, because of this sentence, Kevin Durant stayed in the training hall for a whole summer, and now this Thunder has become the biggest hurdle in the Clippers' winning streak.
