NBA: Crazy Little Giant

Chapter 44

The starting lineup of the Golden State Warriors: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green and Zaza Pachulia.

The Death Five that terrifies the entire league is not a regular lineup, but a special weapon.

At this time, the on-site DJ was introducing the Warriors coming out of the player tunnel one by one.

Start with the water dispenser players walking out one by one.

In order to show respect to Kevin Durant, the Warriors let him replace Stephen Curry tonight to make the final appearance.

Durant, wearing the Warriors' No. 35 jersey, came out of the player tunnel and was booed, deafening, and resounding throughout the arena.

Kevin Durant, who had a little mustache on his chin, said nothing, but there was a blazing fire in his eyes.......

After the DJ introduced the visiting players, it was the turn of the home players.

The starting lineup of the Oklahoma City Thunder: Russell Westbrook, Victor Oladipo, Andre Robertson, PJ Tucker and Chen Cheng.

New player PJ Tucker started directly in this game.

The purpose is to strengthen the team's rotation and defense.

The order of appearance of the players of the Thunder team today has also changed.

In the past, Chen Cheng was always the fifth to last to come out.

After all, he was the only rookie among the five starting players.

However, today, Chen Cheng was the second to last to appear.

"List!"

"Tyrant Chen!"

""Crazy Great Wall!"

Fans shouted Chen Cheng's nickname.

It was in stark contrast to the boos from Kevin Durant.

The overwhelming cheers made Stephen Curry sigh,"Klay, this big guy is amazing!""

"Yes, Stephen. I remember my popularity in my first year as a rookie was not even one tenth of his. Klay Thompson laughed at himself.

"Humph, he's just a rookie. A tall man standing behind Stephen Curry snorted coldly.

"Zaza, don't underestimate him."

"Many inside players have suffered in front of him."

Draymond Green said at this time

"Don't worry, I will show him what the real NBA is tonight."Zaza Pachulia said solemnly......

Players from both teams came to the court from their respective player tunnels.

Soon after, the game officially began.

The Thunder had an unwritten rule that fans would not sit down until the home team scored a goal.

At this time, all the fans stood up and watched the game.

""Ding!" The referee whistled.

Chen Cheng took the lead and won the jump ball.

Russell Westbrook controlled the ball.

However, Westbrook just came to the top of the arc outside the three-point line with the ball.

""Beep!" The referee's whistle sounded.

A player committed a foul.

At the same time, the fans noticed that Zaza Pachulia and Chen Cheng were wrestling for position under the basket. Chen Cheng knocked over Zaza Pachulia, who was 211cm tall and weighed 126kg.

Zaza Pachulia stood up and wanted to make trouble for Chen Cheng.

Although Chen Cheng was a rookie, he was nicknamed"Tyrant Chen" and did not indulge Zaza Pachulia. He directly knocked Zaza Pachulia to the ground again.

The referee appeared between the two in time and pulled them apart.

Their teammates also rushed over.

The referee gave Chen Cheng a technical foul.

Less than 8 seconds after the start of the game,

Chen Cheng received a foul.

For a moment, this also made the fans in front of the TV feel the intensity of the game and even smell the smell of gunpowder.......

Durant of the Warriors took a technical free throw.

For a moment, boos rang out again.

Durant's mentality was affected.

He missed the free throw.

But the ball still went to the Warriors.......

"Xiaocheng, he is still too young."

"The mentality was influenced by Zaza Pachulia"

"A foul at the start"

"This is very disadvantageous to the Thunder."

Tianchao Sports commentator Mr. Su couldn't help but worry.

"fine"

"Teacher Su"

"The town is not for reckless people"

"I believe he will control his fouls." said Zhang, another commentator today.......

The Warriors attack.

The first move is the pick-and-roll between the Splash Brothers.

The two best shooters in the league, the power of the pick-and-roll is beyond reach.

Klay Thompson is the pick-and-roll wall.

Hand-to-hand after the pick-and-roll. The pass is back to Curry.

Curry faces Oladipo who squeezed through the pick-and-roll.

Direct three-pointer.

Historical shooting feel, super fast shooting speed.

Make Oladipo slow down by half a step

""Ding!"

The basketball bounced off the rim and nearly fell into the net. In the inside rebounding competition,

Zaza Pachulia was dirty, but his rebounding ability was not bad at all. His solid positioning gave many centers a headache. For this ball,

Pachulia got a good position and tried his best to block it!

""Pah!"

Pachulia was surprised that the 226cm tall Chen Cheng grabbed the rebound over his head like a helicopter, causing him to lose the offensive rebound that he was sure to win.

""Fast break!" Chen Cheng shouted.

The Warriors can become a top-level team in history, in addition to offense, their defense is also very terrible.

Their defense speed is extremely fast.

Even Westbrook and Oladipo, the two arrows, did not run out of space.

Chen Cheng could only give the ball to Westbrook and fight a positional battle.

The start of the Thunder is now the same as the center era of the last century. The team's center, that is, Chen Cheng, will attack two first.

Chen Cheng fell into the low post.

Zaza Pachulia was hard at the back.

In terms of tonnage, Chen Cheng has a certain advantage.

But in terms of strength, the two are evenly matched.

Logically, it is not easy for Chen Cheng to sit and beat Zaza Pachulia.

But Chen Cheng is like an ancient Roman gladiator, little by little, the defense The defensive stalwart Zaza Pachulia was pushed to the basket.

This scene made the fans at the scene boil.

He is worthy of being called Tyrant Chen!

This tough and iron-blooded style of play ignited the adrenaline of the fans.

After being pushed to the vicinity of the reasonable collision zone.

Chen Cheng made a hook shot.

He wanted to use the increased finishing efficiency of [Anti-Giant Buster] to beat Zaza Pachulia.

Chen Cheng's touch was a bit tight at the beginning.

This ball did not go in.

However, the home fans of the Thunder did not express regret, on the contrary, their eyes became more expectant.

Chen Cheng did not disappoint their hopes.

The next second, Chen Cheng predicted the landing point of the rebound in advance, grabbed the position first, and blocked Pachulia behind him.

"Not good!"The Warriors saw Chen Cheng grabbing the rebound and only had the basket in front of him.

Kevin Durant, who was closest to him and had been staring at Chen Cheng, rushed over quickly, jumped into the air, and slapped Chen Cheng who was trying hard.

We can't let this guy score!

Durant's slap hit Chen Cheng's arm.

But Chen Cheng, who was determined, still savagely stuffed the basketball into the basket.

"and-one!"

"2+1!"

The DJ's high-pitched voice sounded.

Thunder fans also sat down at this time.......

"KD, your foul is pretty tough!" Chen Cheng said with a smile.

Kevin Durant knew that this damn rookie was mocking him for leaving the Thunder.

"fuck!"

"Rookie, you are not qualified to talk to me like that."

As a superstar in the league, Kevin Durant naturally fought back against the provocation of the rookie.
