The world of basketball

Chapter 53 Banished

The most fascinating thing about Westbrook is his passion, his obsession and desire for victory.

Kobe said that Westbrook is the person most like him in this league. He is definitely not talking about technical characteristics, but this kind of paranoia and desire for victory. They are all people who love basketball to the bone marrow.

We have seen countless times that Westbrook puts all his energy and energy into an attack and a possession of the ball. He does not care about whether his body will be injured or not in his fight. He is a pure athlete.

Yes, I know what you're going to say, his offensive selection is questionable, his shooting ability is not strong, and even his signature zombie jump shot is only less than [-]%.

But it is also these problematic offensive choices that allow him to pull back the Thunder who are about to be on the cliff again and again. This is him, just like the Thunder, bombarding the basket and the court.

Westbrook and Popovich are old acquaintances. They have met in the playoffs for several years in a row. Popovich already knows Westbrook very well, just like James.

His defensive approach to Westbrook is the same as his approach to James, that is, don’t let them rush up, just let them play in the position, try not to let them rush into the basket, if they choose long-range shots, whether they make it or not defense.

For this kind of non-earth people, it is impossible to completely restrict them. No one can completely prevent them. They can only make them shoot as uncomfortable as possible, forcing them to choose a method they are not good at attacking.

This requires the Spurs to return to the defense as soon as possible when they fail to score in the offensive round, fall to the basket as soon as possible, and try to ensure that several people can block him when Westbrook rushes up.

But Westbrook's offensive vision has been greatly broadened, that is to say, when he is promoting a counterattack, he can find that his teammates on the outside have passed the ball. Do you think this is annoying?
The match between the Spurs and the Thunder was really a punch to the flesh, full of gunpowder.

Adams went down to receive Westbrook's pass, put his big elbow against Mu Xiaobei's chest, then lowered his center of gravity, took a step, pushed Mu Xiaobei away with his broad shoulders, and hit the board.

Mu Xiaobei signaled to the referee that Adams had just elbowed the ball and touched his chest.

Well, it hurts a lot.

The referee didn't say anything, and Mu Xiaobei was busy attacking so he didn't continue to complain.

In many cases, the referee will miss or make a wrong judgment. At this time, it is no problem to ask the referee for a whistle and put pressure on the referee. After all, many referees are not good things.

Especially the black referee in front of him.

It's not that it's racially discriminatory, but there is a highlight of the book giant being fouled, and this referee has the highest appearance rate in that highlight video.

"The ball was indeed an elbow, and it was a big move," Wang Meng said.

"But if you don't blow it, you don't blow it. Let's see if the referee will find a whistle for the Spurs." Su Qun said.

Neither Westbrook nor Pickled Pepper felt good in the first quarter. With 4 minutes left in the first quarter, the two hit only four out of thirteen shots.

And the Thunder's highest scorer turned out to be Robertson, um, that Robertson who never touches free throws, he has already scored nine points.

Shu Hao holds the ball, and Mu Xiaobei routinely picks and rolls for Shu Hao's horns, and then bounces outside the top of the arc. He is slow to hit Adams, and he can't go back when he is defended. points.

Well, just kidding, Mu Xiaobei is the champion of this year's three-point contest. Which team can be confident enough to let the champion of the three-point contest safely shoot three-pointers from the outside?

So Adams came out of defense, so Shu Hao accelerated to the basket.

Anyone who has read Jeremy Lin's rookie report knows that his speed, start-up speed, and explosive power are top-notch, and he is even in the same position as the number one player with unnatural physical fitness like Volvey Shao.

After Jeremy Lin reached the basket, he layup with his left hand.

However, at this time Westbrook rushed to the horse, because he was too fast, he did not control his body, and slapped Jeremy Lin on the head.

Mu Xiaobei hurried over to help Jeremy Lin up. Jeremy Lin shook his head to indicate that he was fine, but his nose was bleeding a little. Popovich quickly called a timeout for Jeremy Lin to deal with it.

At this time, Mu Xiaomei was thinking: Yes, this should be a malicious foul and two free throws. It's not that Westbrook did it on purpose. In this league, few people intentionally aim at other people's bodies.

"Beep—" The referee signaled for a common foul and made two free throws.

"What?" Popovich jumped up.

"Are you sha b?" Mu Xiaobei couldn't hear Popovich's voice, but he could see Popovich's mouth shape should mean that.

"Beep-"

Two technical fouls directly sent Mr. Bobo to a free throw.

"What are you hell doing?" Mu Xiaobei couldn't stand it anymore, and ran to the referee and said.

"Beep-"

A technical foul hit Mu Xiaobei.

"Are you fucking kidding me?"

Jeremy Lin, who came over to hold Mu Xiaobei back, was still a step too late, and Mu Xiaobei uttered an obscenity.

"Beep-"

Another foul, Mu Xiaobei was expelled from the game, and he and Popovich stayed together.

Mu Xiaobei smiled and clapped his hands, while saying in Chinese: "Cao Tired! Get lost, you fucking bastard! Son of a dog!"

Mu Xiaobei applied everything he learned while playing League of Legends to this referee. Jeremy Lin, who could understand Chinese, grabbed Mu Xiaobei and took him to the door of the player tunnel. go out.

"Spicy Chicken Whistle, Hot Chicken Whistle, Hot Chicken Whistle!!!"

The fans in the Holy City were angry and cursed loudly. The foul by Westbrook on Jeremy Lin was replayed over and over again on the big screen, but anyone who has watched a few NBA games and knows some rules knows that the defensive action cannot touch above the neck. , not to mention Jeremy Lin's nose was bleeding from the beating.

It was only the first quarter, and the Spurs were only leading by three points. Not only did this foul not earn the free throws and ball rights they deserved, but they also lost a lot of free throws due to technical fouls.

The most important thing is that the head coach of the Spurs and the core insiders, both offensive and defensive, have also been sent off. Isn't this the end of the game?
"This time the Spurs really lost their wife and lost their soldiers. I didn't expect that Xiao Mu had such a side. We saw Xiao Mu as his nickname. He was a very humble and polite child. I didn't expect him to contradict the referee. .” Wang Meng said.

"This referee also went too far," Su Qun said, "This is the Spurs' home court, and there are many things that should have been blown, including Adams' elbow." Su Qun defended Mu Xiaobei.

Mu Xiaobei walked out of the aisle, and after taking a shower in the locker room, he saw Mr. Popovich. The old man looked at Mu Xiaobei who looked astonished, and patted Mu Xiaobei on the shoulder without saying anything.

"Good job."
