Superstar Tyreke

Chapter 48
Returning to the game, both teams have made personnel adjustments. The Kings replaced Cousins ​​by Dalembert, Casspi replaced Garcia, Udri replaced Thompson, and the lineup on the field was Udrik, Tyreke, Thornton, Casspi, Dalembert.

The leading Thunder replaced players on the bench, and only Durant remained on the field as a starter. At this time, the Thunder's field lineup was Eric Maynor, James Harden, Durant, Nick Collison, Nazr Mohammed.

Tyreek's desire to perform was extremely strong, on the one hand, it was for victory, and on the other hand, it was because of a sudden throbbing in his heart, wanting to impress An Jiali.

After the Thunder replaced the substitutes, their defensive strength dropped significantly, and the backline defense of Maynor and Harden was not enough at all.

Harden is now in the second season of his career, and his potential has been gradually revealed. His offensive firepower has been slowly released with the increase in game experience. Give him enough time, and he will definitely grow into a player in the league. star.But now Harden has more potential, and it is offensive potential. His physical condition is fine, but his defensive enthusiasm is not high.

The Thunder's other backup guard, Maynor, is a pure point guard. His good shooting and vision allow him to have a stable playing time of about 15 minutes in the game, but his talent is indeed limited, and his thin body also limits His defensive ability.

Facing the perimeter defense of these two, Tyreke began to gradually enter his own game rhythm.Relying on his super sense of the ball and the top physical condition on the back line, Tyreke easily tore through the Thunder's perimeter defense.

The Thunder's two inside substitutes, Collison and Muhammad, Collison is an extremely tough player with a tough style of play, but generally bounces and moves slowly.Mohammed, a 13-year veteran in the league, came to the Oklahoma City Thunder from the Charlotte Bobcats this season. His playing style is similar to that of Collison. He is good at rebounding and is a pure blue-collar insider.

When Tyreke entered the interior and faced these two interior defenders with extremely poor mobility, it was like entering the land of no one.Tyreke, who has excellent speed and flexibility, is like facing two wooden stakes. Whether it is a layup or a second pass to an inside teammate, he is easy to catch.

Although Durant's touch is still hot, and Harden also relied on his various offensive methods to cause trouble for the Kings, the Kings still narrowed the contrast under the leadership of Tyreke.

Udrik dribbled the ball in the frontcourt, Tyreke moved deftly without the ball, slipped the baseline around Dalembert, and beckoned for the ball.Udrik points to Tyreke, who is one step inside the three-point line in the bottom corner. Maynor, who is chasing Tyreke, is blocked by Dalembert. At this time, Tyreke is unguarded two meters in front of him!

Tyreke is in the ready position for a jump shot on the spot, exerts force on his feet, kicks off the ground quickly, and at the same time vibrates his arms upwards, lifts the ball to the right back of his head, aims at the basket, exerts force on his wrist, moves the basketball with his fingers, and makes a shot !Very Tyrek's personal style "crooked" shooting posture, hollow into the net!

With this goal scored, the Kings overtook the score!Overtook the Thunder by 43 point 42 to 1!
The moment Tyreke scored the goal, all the fans raised their hands and stood up to cheer for the team!

Tyreek sneaked a glance in An Jiali's direction, only to see that An Jiali was also shouting with joy.Although Tyreke felt his heart throbbing when he saw An Jiali, he didn't say it was love at first sight, but who wouldn't want to attract the other's attention in front of a beauty that fits his own aesthetics?The high-spirited Tyreke even became more accurate in jump shots, which he was not good at. Seeing that An Jiali was also cheering for her goal, Tyreke couldn't help being even more excited...

After the Kings overtook the score, Thunder coach Scott Brooks had to call a timeout.

"Tyreke, you played well. There are more than 2 minutes left in the second quarter. Come down and rest for a while, let's start in the third quarter." Coach Westphal patted Tyreke on the shoulder and said.

"It's okay, coach, there are only two regular season games. I'm in good shape now, so I don't need to rest"

At Tyreke's insistence, Coach Westphal did not replace Tyreke, and at halftime, the Sacramento Kings tied the Oklahoma City Thunder 50-50, Tyreke was alone in the second quarter Scored 14 points, Tyreke played 24 minutes in the half game, scored 21 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, the highest score in the game.

"The first half of the game is over, now it's halftime, the team is currently tied with the Thunder, on the other side of the Rose Garden Arena, the first half of the game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Portland Trail Blazers has also ended, the Grizzlies The Bears trail the Trail Blazers by 45 points 47-2, Jerry, what do you think?"

"Grant, the strength of the Thunder team should not be underestimated. To be honest, the team's paper strength is still weaker than the Thunder team. We must admit this, but the outcome of a basketball game is affected by all aspects. Today's team The spirit is extremely strong, especially Tyreke, who has played the first half, and the team can maintain this state in the second half, and it is not impossible to beat the Thunder. On the other hand, the Grizzlies, they faced Porter in the away game The Blazers are currently ranked 6th in the West, and they are also a strong team. Judging from their performance in the first half, the Blazers, who have home court advantage today, are in better condition. But everything is not good, let us look forward to the boys How about the second half!"

At the beginning of the third quarter, the main players of both sides returned to the court. The talent of the Thunder team is indeed terrifying. Durant and Westbrook bombed the basket of the Kings in turn. On the defensive end, there were Sefolosha and Ibaka. With such a gate, the Kings once again fell into a passive position.

But the hand feel is really bad, sometimes it is, and sometimes it is cold when it is cold.Westbrook hit the iron frequently after scoring twice at the beginning of the third quarter, and the Kings fought back under the leadership of the two cores of the inside and outside, Tyreke and Cousins.

Tyreke continued his strong performance, while Cousins ​​gradually found a way to deal with the Thunder's inside defense from the incompatibility in the first half to the second half.Perkins' defensive deterrence is great, his defensive attitude is extremely positive, his position is excellent, and he is a very good defensive center.However, his foot speed is too slow, relying on Ibaka's excellent mobility and top defensive ability to make up for Perkins' shortcomings.

Cousins ​​is in extremely good physical condition, and at the same time has a soft mid-range skill. Cousins, who was limited by Perkins' fights in the first half, frequently relied on his low-post skills and mid-range mobility to beat Perkins Insufficient in this weakness, even if Ibaka assists in the defense, Cousins ​​can calmly transfer the ball to his teammates, and Perkins, who is getting more and more impatient, also fell into the predicament of fouling.

The scores of the two teams rose alternately, and they fell into a tug-of-war for a while.
