If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 114 Phoenix All-Stars

Lakers coach Phil Jackson hopes that the team can be more aggressive at critical moments and do a good job of defense.

Odom, who hadn't made any fouls before, didn't hesitate, and directly attacked Yi Jian.

Then there is the foul, 3 minutes, Odom fouled three times.

He really couldn't guard against Yi Jian, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't guard against him.

Even Pau Gasol came up to help defend and was accompanied by a foul.

The Lakers are really not careful enough. Yi Jian is the current scoring leader, but they think that Yi Jian's scoring is just enough to gain enough from some weak teams. They are the Lakers, and they can definitely do well if they are serious.

In fact, there are some things they can't do well.

"Kobe made a difficult two-pointer, but it wasn't enough for the Lakers. The Thunder have already led by 8 points."

"Fisher's three-pointer ... missed. Fisher's outside shooting percentage is very low today, and he has missed four three-pointers now."

"The Thunder still double-teamed Kobe, and Fisher had another chance...Unfortunately, he still missed."

"This time it was Odom's three-pointer, and he missed it! The Lakers' chances are running out."

"Kobe forced a three-pointer and missed it. Kobe's shooting percentage is not bad today, but he missed one three-pointer."

"The Lakers' players who shot well today were substitutes, but they finally replaced the main players who were not in good condition on the court. The game is almost settled."

"Yi Jian hit a three-pointer! The Thunder beat the Lakers!"

"Facing the Lakers, Yi Jian and Durant both scored 31 points. Although Kobe scored 34 points, he was unable to support the Lakers alone. The Lakers lost this strong matchup in the Western Conference."

After the game, Thunder coach Brooks also made a splash. He said: "Our desire to win does not lose to any team, so we have the opportunity to beat more powerful opponents."

"We've got two All-Stars, it's time to earn respect."

[Lead the team to win, the performance is complete victory, the Lakers quasi-All-Star beat player Lamar Odom, reward +2 for possession, +2 for passing, +1 for layup. 】

Maybe it was a little relaxed after defeating the Lakers. The Thunder lost back-to-back away games to the Trail Blazers.

The Blazers' bench lineup performed well. Outran, Fernandez, Bayless and Przybilla all played very well, but the Thunder had no choice but to lose.

[Perform better than the All-Star potential player Lamarcus Aldridge, reward back hit +2. 】

And after this game, the All-Star Weekend came.

Yi Jian and Durant will participate in the Rookie Challenge and the All-Star Game.

They competed in the Rookie Challenge as a sophomore team, and Lopez played against them as a freshman.

As the defending champion, Yi Jian was supposed to participate in the slam dunk contest, but he declined on the grounds of his injury, and only chose to participate in the three-point contest, while Durant participated in the HORSE competition held for the first time.

Yi Jian didn't participate in the slam dunk contest, mainly because he didn't have the reward for winning the championship for the first time. In addition, the slam dunk contest was relatively expensive. He didn't want to continue copying ideas so that there would be no dunks in the future, unlike the three-point battle, which was relatively simple.

Moreover, he did have some minor injuries. As his fame grew, the opponents' defense against him became tighter. Under high-intensity confrontation, it was impossible for his body to have no injuries.

In order to focus on the glory that has not been won, the slam dunk contest is also a choice to give up.

There are only three Thunder players going to the All-Star Weekend this time, but a group of young people from the team are planning to go to Phoenix together to cheer on the two core players of the team.

The current Thunder has completely become a young people's team.

Yi Jian and Durant are not just young people with potential for reconstruction, but also all-stars in the league.

It's normal to go to cheer for the boss.

A group of people dispatched early and went there to play for two days, and the friendship between everyone became stronger in an instant.

The mental fatigue in the first half of the season also quickly faded a lot.

In fact, it's pretty good to play by the way during the All-Star weekend, but Yi Jian and Durant, who are popular fried chickens, still have a lot of activities, commercial activities and other activities, but they are not as exciting as others.

But watching the beating numbers in the bank card is also extremely comfortable.

This All-Star Weekend, Yi Jian saw one more teammate from the national team, and that was Sun Yue who played soy sauce with the Lakers.

Sun Yue came here purely to participate in activities. He didn't perform well with the Lakers. He didn't have a chance to make a phone call when the Thunder passed by last time.

Mixing the NBA's advice, Yi Jian actually gave Sun Yue a lot.

It's just that this buddy is more proud in his heart, thinking that he can stay in the league with his own methods, and he doesn't pay enough attention to shooting training, so it is difficult to get opportunities.

After all, Sun Yue only has an advantage as a guard, and a role player will not have the ball in the NBA. He simply cannot show what he is good at.

If you miss the current opportunity, it may be difficult to improve.

Yi Jian didn't bother to take care of it either. If he couldn't do it, he would have successors. Even if he was in the national team now, only other people could cooperate with him. Players who didn't work hard to improve could only be eliminated.

On the first day of the All-Star Weekend, the three of the Thunder will play in the rookie game.

Yi Jian has already won the MVP of the rookie game, so this time he will play casually with Durant.

In fact, their second-year team, apart from the two of them, has no advantages in other positions.

Brooks and Scola of the Rockets, Wells Chandler of the Knicks, Horford of the Eagles, Jeff Green of the Bucks, Stuckey of the Pistons, and Thaddeus Young of the 76ers, the strength is like that.

The first-year team is Rose of the Bulls, Mayo and Gasol of the Grizzlies, Beasley of the Heat, Gordon of the Clippers, Oden and Fernandez of the Blazers, Westbrook of the Bobcats and Los Angeles of the Thunder. Pez.

The first-year starters are Rose, Gordon, Fernandez, Beasley and Gasol Jr., which is a very good lineup.

In the second grade, Yi Jian and Durant, together with Stuckey, Yang and Horford, have no advantages in the other three positions, but the two real All-Stars have greatly increased their strength.

Before the game, Yi Jian greeted the others, saying that they would easily win the first-year team.

"We're going to show rookies that the NBA is not such an easy place."

He said to Durant in private: "Today you go all out to compete for the MVP, and I will cooperate with you."

Durant was also very excited that he could finally bully the children.

But at the start of the game, the first-year team said it was not that simple.

In the opponent's starting lineup, Rose did not give full play, but organized honestly.

The most active are Beasley and Gordon, who are very persistent in scoring.

Fernandez and Gasol also tried their best to show themselves. European rookies are different, and they are not as shy as domestic players.

Without Yi Jian's strength, the second-year team was unable to suppress the opponent for a while.

Fortunately, Durant's plan to grab the MVP went very smoothly, and he scored very neatly.
