Chapter 167 The Burden of Being a Senior

It was Krstic, No. 5 of the Thunder, who jumped the ball with Lin Ri.

He is a standard international player. He is tall, has certain skills, and has a soft touch, but his physical fitness is mediocre.

Lin Ri easily bullied him only by relying on his explosive power.

The Suns launched the first offense of the field amid the cheers of the audience.

Steve Nash, who came to the frontcourt, gave the ball to Humphries under the basket, but Humphries didn't hold the ball firmly and missed a good chance to make a shot.

When he got the ball firmly, Kostic had already posted it.

But it doesn't matter, there is someone behind us!
Humphries turned into a "little insider supporter" and passed the ball to Lin Ri who came from an empty cut.

Lin Ri took the ball, spread his wings like an eagle, and completed a one-handed dunk.

"Bah!"

You can tell by the sound that it is powerful!
The sun's use of his body is obviously better!

Sandek can see that Lin Ri's movements are smoother now. If Lin Ri was as flexible as a small forward in the NCAA, then Lin Ri looks like an outside player on the court now.

That speed, that agility...

Coupled with his height!
Sandek is really not surprised that Lin Ri can play so well in the NBA.

He always remembers his first reaction when he saw Lin Ri for the first time in September last year. This guy was born for basketball!
"My, my, I didn't keep up!"

Green took the initiative to indicate that he did not keep up with Lin Ri's air cut, and the latter had such an easy layup opportunity.

However, after signaling to his teammates, Green couldn't help but glanced at Lin Ri again, thinking: What kind of monster is this guy!
Green had already caught up with him the first time, but when he first came into contact with Lin Ri, he didn't pester him for a second, and this guy used his speed and strength to get rid of him directly.

This guy……

"It's okay, it's okay, let's score a goal back!"

The head coach of the Thunder, who just took office this year, looked at Lin Ri and dunked as soon as he came up. He seemed a little afraid that the mentality of the Thunder players would be affected, so he opened his mouth and yelled at the court.

Westbrook held the ball in the backcourt, glanced at Kevin Durant after halftime, hesitated, but finally handed the ball to the latter.

This is the basic tactic of the Thunder.

As long as there is an opportunity for Kevin Durant to catch the ball, the ball must be handed to him first.

Seeing Kevin Durant holding the ball beyond the three-point line, Brooks looked a little more confident.

He believes that the ball is stable!

Moving Kevin Durant from the [-] to the [-] was the biggest adjustment Brooks has made since taking office, and it looks like it was exactly the right one.

Kevin Durant, who came to the third position, has further increased his offensive firepower, which shows that this guy is a natural offensive player!
Speaking of which, it seems that Green is a bit embarrassed. As an inside player, he is not as tall as Kevin Durant.

It was also the first time Ariza encountered such a tall player running outside to play outside. He was very uncomfortable. In order to prevent this guy from directly passing him in one step, he chose to put a certain amount of space.

Unexpectedly, Kevin Durant didn't hesitate at all in the face of the space he released, but simply tested it. After both of his feet entered the three-point line, he did not hesitate to pull up and shoot.

"Shh!"

This is a long two points.

The ball crossed a very beautiful arc and fell steadily into the basket.

This guy……

Ariza frowned.

In fact, he jumped in time.

However, after he rushed towards Kevin Durant, he didn't even cover his eyes with his hands. This guy is too tall!

Covering his hat is even more unthinkable.

monster!

Like Jeff, he also made such a conclusion for Kevin Durant in his heart.

"Trevor, in the next round, you just pounce on it, and I will help you defend!"

Lin Ri looked at Kevin Durant's thin body and felt that letting him shoot would be better than forcing him to layup and force him to engage in physical confrontation. This should be a way to have a greater impact on him.

Ariza nodded.

He was never a pushover.

Steve Nash once again broke through Westbrook.

Westbrook didn't hold him back as much as he thought before the game.

Originally, what Steve Nash was most afraid of was such a strong player defending him.

But although Westbrook is physically strong, his defensive habits are too poor, and Steve Nash easily found a breakthrough gap.

But this time Green regarded Lin Ri as deadly and didn't give him a chance to run.

Therefore, Lin Ri did not go inside to compress Steve Nash's breakthrough space.

Nash glanced at Humphries, and this action successfully deceived Krstic from coming forward to stop him.

Nash made an easy backhook to complete the layup.

He returned to the defense with his tongue out, and was given a close-up by the sideline camera. The fans in the audience cheered loudly as he returned to the defense.

Steve Nash scored beautifully.

The 35-year-old "Son of the Wind" is still so chic!

Westbrook watched Steve Nash score, and he also chose to attack himself in the next attack.

His matchup has already scored, of course he has to score!

Steve Nash suffered "violent demolition", Westbrook's physical fitness is indeed strong, he directly ran over Steve Nash and rushed into the inside.

Before a second had passed, the guy had already rushed into the basket and soared into the air.

This speed!

Crooked, 911?I called the police, someone hacked!
"Snapped!"

However, before the jumping Westbrook had time to release the ball, Lin Ri, who had slammed out next to him, slapped the ball with his palm, and pressed him down.

Westbrook just fell to the ground.

He was stunned for a moment and glanced down.

Fortunately, the ball is still in his hands.

He made another layup.

"Snapped!"

Lin Ri gave him another hot pot meal.

Still, Westbrook has made some progress.

Anyway, the ball was shot.

But this also made Lin Ri's block look a lot more violent.

But Westbrook is a resilient guy.

He snatched the ball into his hands in a daze.

This time he dribbled the ball, instead of rushing forward, he took a cautious look at Lin Ri and his position, and this time he chose to throw the shot.

"Snapped!"

It's just that what he didn't expect was...

This time, Lin Ri jumped in front of him in time and completed the block.

I go! ! !

This is amazing! !
Bullshit!
Crooked, 911?Don't come, I'm sorry, I misunderstood, it's my family's.

Lin Ri capped Westbrook three times in a row, and the cheers from the audience had already blown up.

Brooks was full of anger. When Westbrook was caught just now, he kept yelling at him, "Pass, pass!"

But Westbrook just didn't respond at all.

This guy is "obsessed"!

Just insist on blocking the rookie on the opposite side?

Off the court, James Harden covered his eyes with his hands.

This is too miserable!

He really couldn't stand it anymore.

Good... fierce... ah!

Is this NBA-level interior defense?

The "new Big Three" of Arizona State University were completely stunned.

Originally, they were quite proud of being rampant in the NCAA, but now seeing the opening of the fight like a dragon and a tiger, they suddenly felt that the world was much bigger than they imagined.

After all, John Wall didn't dare to say how much faster he could be than Westbrook's breakthrough speed just now.

But even with such a breakthrough speed, Lin Ri still caught up, one shot after another.

The three guys immediately vowed in their hearts that they must train harder when they return to Arizona State University.

Otherwise, I'm afraid that their current scenery will become an eternal scenery...

"Awesome! The sun, just do it like this, hey, what a pity! It's not James, if only James!"

Jeff, who is thousands of miles away, is also watching tonight's game.

He was in a great mood seeing Lin Ri cap Westbrook.

This guy was no less like James Harden that day, specifically looking for him to break through, and he regarded him as a "cash machine".

With three consecutive caps, he really wanted to run to the sidelines and shout at Westbrook, "You have today too!"

It's just that it's a pity for Jeff because it's not James Harden.

However, Lin Ri is in such a good state tonight, which also makes Jeff look forward to what will happen next.

After being capped three times, Westbrook was a lot more honest. He handed the ball back to Kevin Durant in the next round.

Ariza witnessed the vicious scene of Lin Ri just blocking Westbrook consecutively, and he trusted his defensive ability thousands of times more.

The first time Kevin Durant got the ball, he jumped on it without hesitation.

Kevin Durant didn't expect this guy to pounce so suddenly, he didn't react for a while, and was entangled by Ariza.

But he didn't panic at all, and passed Ariza's side in a big stride.

what are you...

Although what Ariza wanted was to force this guy to break through.

But being broken through so easily by Kevin Durant, he instantly felt that his self-esteem was hurt.

the sun, you must cover this damn guy! !

He yelled in his heart.

He hoped that Lin Ri would best have a three-cap against Kevin Durant.

He just froze for a second.

He saw an incredible scene.

Kevin Durant, who broke through him in one step, did not continue to rush forward, but stopped quickly, controlled the ball, then jumped high, and made another mid-range shot.

"Shh!"

The arc of the ball is still beautiful.

The entry is still straightforward...

This is a pull-up jump shot!

This move was not a very awesome move.

The outside scorers in the league basically do this, it's just the difference between good and bad.

But the problem is!

Brother, you should be over 2 meters tall, right?

With your height, you took such a big step in the first step, and you froze your body, what the hell is that?

Are you serious and tall?

Is your center of gravity unstable?
Your movements are not flexible?
Ah!
Lin Ri was also a little frightened.He sensed a traitor among their big men.

This guy's talent is really good!

Lin Ri envied the real name system.

He thought too.

It's just that he shouldn't be able to make such a dribble.

But if this guy is so perverted.

That's not simply forcing Kevin Durant to give up outside shots and kill inside.

"Trevor, it's okay, just defend him like this, and force him to shoot like this!"

However, Lin Day did not let Ariza change the way of defense.

Or let Ariza continue to press forward.

Ariza thought for a moment, then nodded, apparently understanding what Lin Ri meant.

It is true that Kevin Durant's coordination and flexibility are almost the same as outside players, but the emergency stop jump shot after a big stride breakthrough is very difficult even for ordinary outside players. Although Kevin Durant's physical fitness is a bit abnormal, but even if he is abnormal, his height is more than 2 meters. He cannot always complete the emergency stop breakthrough with such quality.

Therefore, as long as the pressure continues and Kevin Durant keeps doing this, he will have problems himself.

Dare to force it up?

Kevin Durant didn't expect Ariza to pounce on him.

He didn't think too much, and continued the breakthrough mode just now.

One thing Ariza has to admit.

That is, Kevin Durant's trick is really incomprehensible.

"Shh!"

Kevin Durant hit the ball again.

The ball was scored, and when he returned to defense, he turned his head and glanced at Ariza.

That appearance seemed to say, "Xiao Mian, how dare you defend me like that!"

If you dare to guard against me like this, I promise to shoot you to death like this!

Brooks watched Kevin Durant return to the defense with a big smile on his face.The better this guy is, the more it shows how wise his decision to move the latter to the three position was in the first place.

Ariza answered Kevin Durant's look with action.

I dare!
Kevin Durant therefore pulled up a jumper after another long stride.

This time the ball bounced out of the box.

This time it was Ariza's turn to challenge Kevin Durant.

However, Ariza, who had a calm face, felt a burst of rejoicing in his heart: I was scared to death, but fortunately he popped out.

At that time, Kevin Durant's shot arc was very beautiful, but the ball didn't dribble well. It hit the front of the basket and fell out. If the height of the ball's bounce was not so high, and it didn't bounce back so vigorously when it fell, the ball might have rolled directly into the basket.

Kevin Durant's face gradually blackened under the provocation of Ariza.

In the ensuing hours, he turned on "Thor mode" and used all kinds of unreasonable jumpers to tell Ariza how stupid it was to provoke him.

At the same time, it also told all the fans watching this game how fierce the scoring maniac who averaged more than 30 points per game is! !

While he's been scoring, though, the Suns have been scoring.

There is a big problem with the defensive ability of the Thunder's starting lineup.

They couldn't stop the Suns' scoring momentum at all.

Thankfully, Kevin Durant was in good shape from the start tonight.

Otherwise, the Thunder really can't keep up with the firepower of the Suns.

In the end, the two teams scored 35 to 34 at the end of the first quarter. The Thunder could barely hold the score and did not allow the point difference to widen.

Kevin Durant was like "Thor came into the world" in the first quarter, scoring 14 points in a single quarter.

He is the player with the highest score in a single quarter of the two teams.

But Gentry didn't blame Ariza.

There's a reason Kevin Durant averaged 30 points per game.

In addition, most importantly, he can see clearly from the sidelines, he can understand Ariza's defensive strategy and his purpose in doing so.

Looking at Kevin Durant, who was panting when he was off the court, he felt that if he continued to defend like this, the effect should be obvious.

……

James Harden then came on in the second quarter.

He was actually a little reluctant to show up.

Lin Ri's performance in the first quarter was too outstanding, and the picture of Westbrook's three consecutive caps is still circling in James Harden's mind, lingering.

He can't play such a wonderful performance.

Hey ~
If only Jeff was here!

Somehow, James Harden misses Jeff especially tonight.

Jeff sneezed on it.

"ball!"

James Harden, who played, asked for the ball immediately.

Lin Ri's performance is so good, he can't lose the chain.

James Harden faced Goran Dragic, a simple tentative step, and his confidence soared.

This guy is not good at defense.

Immediately after James continuously dribbled the latter's center of gravity, he suddenly made a breakthrough along his right side. This action completely drove Dragic's entire center of gravity, and was directly thrown aside by James Harden.

"Shh!"

James Harden, who easily completed a layup, made a simple celebration as he returned to defense.When passing in front of the auditorium where Sandek and his three juniors were sitting, he deliberately slowed down, and at the same time said in his heart: Don't laugh, don't laugh, you must be ruthless at this time!I'm an emotional killer!
"James is so strong!"

"Yes, this guy has improved a lot!"

"This shaking is really amazing..."

James Harden just passed by and "just happened" to hear the conversation between Sandek and John Wall.

Very good, I didn't embarrass the senior.

James Harden breathed a sigh of relief.

Brooks looked at James Harden, who was returning to the defense in "calm and clear", and nodded slightly.

This kid is in good shape tonight!

Did this guy score a goal?
What James Harden didn't notice was that when he returned to the defense blankly, Stephen Curry, who was holding the ball in the backcourt, was staring at his back.

There was also a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.

He doesn't want to perform worse than James Harden.

At least in front of Lin Ri, a man who gave him a sense of security, he had to prove that he was a stronger guy than James Harden.

Stephen Curry holds the ball across half court.

When he came to Livingston who was defending him, he pulled up and shot without hesitation.

"Shh!"

Go in!

The attack took less than 9 seconds.

Stephen Curry responded to James Harden's shot with a three-pointer.

And it's a top-notch three-pointer.

Then, the conversation between Sandek and the others became...

"This guy is so strong!"

"Is he also a rookie this year?"

"He seems to be called Stephen Curry, the player with the highest scoring average in the entire NCAA Division I regular season last year."

"No wonder, it looks a little fiercer than Senior James."

James Harden: ...

"Good job, just hit like this!"

Gentry also gave Stephen Curry a thumbs up.

Steve Nash was injured for two weeks, and Stephen Curry reached the starting position during that time. Now it seems that this is quite obvious for his improvement.

This kind of improvement was not obvious when Stephen Curry was still in the starting lineup, but now when he returns to the substitute rotation lineup, his improvement can be seen at once.

In the past three games, Stephen Curry averaged 21.1 minutes per game and averaged 17 points per game!On average, he can make 3-4 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting percentage is over 45%!

The condition is really good!

In this game, this guy obviously continued his excellent form and hit a three-pointer as soon as he came up.

James Harden deliberately found Stephen Curry to hit one on the next possession.

John Wall, they are all saying that Stephen Curry is more fierce, how can James Harden swallow this breath?
Stephen Curry did not choose to switch defenses, but faced the provocation of James Harden.

However, it is really not a simple matter for Stephen Curry to prevent James Harden. The latter keeps changing the rhythm of dribbling while shaking continuously. Stephen Curry, like Dragic, was swayed away.

"Shh!"

James Harden hits a mid-range jumper!

yes!

James Harden screamed in his heart.

He was so happy with the goal.

As for why you are happy...you know everything.

But ten seconds later, James Harden "Sima" face again.

Because Stephen Curry also greeted him with the ball, took a step outside the three-point line, pulled up and shot.

It was such an unreasonable ball, but he was stunned into the basket by him.

The ball directly ignited the screams of the entire stadium.

James Harden could clearly see that Lin Ri, Sandek, and John Wall all stood up after the ball was shot, looking at Stephen Curry in surprise.This kid is so fucking daring to vote!
I hate you, woo woo woo~
