After changing careers, I ruled an era in the NBA

In the Mavericks locker room, Su Jiuyun sat quietly in his seat, as if he was keeping away from strangers.

Nowitzki sat over, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Su, are you competing with yourself or Russell? Did you feel uncomfortable being suppressed in the first half?"

Su Jiuyun nodded and smiled bitterly.

"Su, your personality on the court is sometimes like Kobe's, very persistent and serious, which is good.

But there are also shortcomings. Think about it, why is his shooting percentage so low? Why is his shooting percentage on the last shot not high either?

It's not that Kobe is not shooting accurately. On the contrary, this guy is pretty accurate.

The reason why it is so low is because this guy is persistent and serious, always thinking that no matter what method others use to defend him, he can just use what he is best at to defeat others.

And everyone knows that you have to take the last shot, but in many cases he chooses a more difficult method.

So, when two or three people flank him, it's strange that his last shot has a high hit rate.

That’s not to say it’s wrong, I’m telling you that sometimes there are other ways. "

Su Jiuyun looked at Nowitzki with a vague understanding, and Nowitzki smiled slightly and continued:

"People say I'm a softie, but I can still kill everyone in the NBA. Why is that?

Because I don't care what the outside world or my opponents say, I just play every game in my own way.

You were too serious in the first half and were too obsessed with limiting Westbrook's offense. You must know that this is the NBA and it is difficult to limit an NBA player.

So you put too much energy into defense. Your current physical reserves and mental will have not yet reached the stage where you can combine offense and defense.

So, you have entered Westbrook's rhythm, it would be strange not to be suppressed! He is an All-Star point guard! "

Nowitzki's words made Su Jiuyun fall into deep thought. When the halftime ended, his eyes lit up a lot, and his face showed his first smile since the halftime.

Yes, if you want everything when your abilities are not reached, you will only crush yourself. It is better to choose what is most beneficial to you.

Humph, Russell, when I get stronger, I will see you fight one at a time, and I want to spread the word in this league: Sue only eats and sleeps to beat Westbrook and Paul.

Ah, no, there should be Curry, Lillard, Irving...

Uh, that’s a lot!

When Carlisle, Nowitzki and others who were paying attention to Su Jiuyun saw the smile on his face, everyone laughed and seemed to have figured it out.

After returning from the second half, during the first matchup, Westbrook, who was in possession of the ball, was a little surprised to see the smile on Su Jiuyun's face.

"Su, you can't guard against my mid-range shots and breakthroughs..."

Before he finished speaking, Westbrook was a little dumbfounded. Su Jiuyun quickly retreated to the free throw line, leaving him a two-meter gap. This was unclear:

You vote, you vote, I believe you can't make it!

Uh... Westbrook was a little confused. As long as he got the ball to the three-point line in the first half, this guy just bit it like a cowhide plaster. Why was it different in the half?

Although Westbrook's three-point shooting percentage this season is only 32.3%, no one would deliberately dare to let him easily shoot such a wide open shot like this.

Westbrook looked at Su Jiuyun and couldn't bear it when he saw the strange expression on his face.

Collect the ball, pull it up and shoot!

But Su Jiuyun didn't rush to interfere. At this moment, Westbrook was so angry.

He is different from Su Jiuyun. Su Jiuyun doesn't have three-pointers and basically doesn't shoot. But Westbrook never feels that he has no three-point shooting ability, so when Su Jiuyun does this, he immediately gets angry.

"Hahaha, what did I see? Su actually stopped pestering Westbrook. This defense was like giving Westbrook a gesture to ask for a shot, hahaha!"

Buckley couldn't help but laugh.

"boom"

The ball was knocked out, Crowder protected the backboard and then advanced by himself.

As Su Jiuyun ran towards the frontcourt, he said to Westbrook who was following him:

"That's it......."

"Rage +12"

Well, great, that's all.

After Su Jiuyun's mentality changed and he put more energy into offense, his offensive concentration improved a lot.

After breaking through the pick-and-roll, Ibaka slipped behind the baseline and carefully observed that Ibaka was a little slack on defense, so he turned around and hit the ball with a moonshot.

In the next round, Westbrook unbelievingly took another shot, and it was still a strike.

The Mavericks had a fast break, Mayo hit a mid-range shot, and the two teams were tied.

In the third offense, Westbrook still wanted to do it himself, but Durant couldn't stand it and reached out for the ball. At this time, Westbrook still gave it to him.

Durant simply used his height and length to make a three-threat pull-up mid-range shot. Then he looked at Westbrook, as if to tell him that this is the way to shoot.

Ever since Su Jiuyun changed the way he defended Westbrook, Westbrook has been extremely uncomfortable.

It's not like Su Jiuyun didn't pounce on every ball. When Westbrook made his third shot, he pounced on him with a smile like an old man's, letting Westbrook hit the ball again.

The next time Westbrook attacked, he didn't hesitate and chose to break through. However, other Mavericks players paid more attention to protecting Su Jiuyun, and Westbrook's breakthrough success rate was not high.

Westbrook failed to fire, and Su Jiuyun returned from the offense. I originally thought the Mavericks could open up the score, but after the third quarter, the Mavericks not only failed to take the lead, but fell behind by 6 points.

There is no one else, because there is a non-human guy on the scene, that is Kevin Durant, the scoring leader of the past three seasons, broke out.

With Marion and Crowder taking turns to engage in physical confrontations with him, he let everyone on the scene know the power of the three-time scoring champion with his unstoppable personal performance in the third quarter.

He only took 6 shots in a single quarter and hit 4 goals, including 3 of 5 3-pointers. He also committed a foul and stood on the free throw line 5 times. He scored 16 points in a single quarter. He scored half of the Thunder's entire quarter. There are even more points.

"huhuhuhu"

Marion was breathing heavily. At the end of the three quarters, he had already fouled 5 times. There was nothing he could do, he just couldn't guard Durant today.

Crowder has also committed 4 fouls, Su Jiuyun has also committed 4 fouls, and the entire Mavericks team is in foul trouble.

"Durant showed us what it means to be three consecutive scoring champions. The Mavericks' two best defenders, Marion and Crowder, were both beaten. The two of them committed 9 fouls in total. In the last quarter, the Mavericks It’s hard to beat.”

Su Jiuyun was also panting heavily. The intensity of this competition was a bit high!

Because he and Westbrook were intense in the first half, it directly increased the intensity of the game, and the Thunder team is full of muscular men.

Ibaka, Perkins and others will not be lenient. In the past quarter, when he was attacking the inside, he was blocked three times while being dribbled.

After the game started in the fourth quarter, Westbrook came on the court from the beginning. Collison, Carter and others could be said to be tied with the Thunder team led by Westbrook.

In the 7th minute, the main players of both teams returned. At this time, the Mavericks were still 5 points behind.

After Durant returned, he was obviously affected by the decline in physical fitness. After all, Marion and Crowder were giving him strength all the time.

After coming up, he missed his first two shots, and then he changed his offensive method, which was to use his breakthrough ability to cause damage.

Then one minute later, Marion committed six offenses and ended the game. Three minutes later, Claude also graduated. He had no choice but to keep up with his pace. Sometimes he tried to dodge, but he couldn't.

最终杜兰特在第4节10投仅2中的情况下，8次站上罚球线，单节拿到12分4个篮板，帮助雷霆队以107比102险胜小牛队。
