If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 246 Stability
"How is it possible? Why is the Thunder still so difficult when Durant is on a truce?"

"It's normal for Yi Jian to be difficult to limit. We also know that even if the Thunder only have Yi Jian, they will be difficult to deal with. But what is going on with their other teams, how can they play so well on both offense and defense?"

"Could it be that all Thunder players have grown to this level? This is impossible!"

"If they can't even defeat the Thunder with an uneven lineup, do they still have hope this season?"

The Celtics players felt confused.

O'Neal and Perkins were injured, O'Neal and Garnett were not physically strong, and the Celtics were short of insiders.

They are also one of the teams with the worst rebounds in the league. Facing the Thunder, they kept throwing up defensive rebounds. Yi Jian easily scored in double digits before he could exert his strength.

Yi Jian was a little dazed. He knew that the strength of the Celtics was declining, but he didn't expect it to reach this level.

Compared with the first game, the Celtics feel regressed again.

"See, it's just a group of old guys, don't worry about them, we have to continue to increase strength." Yi Jian said to the others.

The Thunder are much more energetic than the Celtics, and even the substitutes are much stronger than the Celtics.

The Thunder established an absolute advantage in the first half, and when Yi Jian made a few more moves in the second half, the Thunder actually clocked out for another three quarters.

[Lead the team to beat the Celtics, a threatening team, and reward steals +1. 】

The fans who followed the game were also shocked. It is possible for Yi Jian to lead the team to win the Celtics, but they won too easily.

As a result, Durant was innocently shot. Before the game was over, many people complained that Durant was a side effect to the team and only knew to score points.

After the game, some reporters asked Yi Jian related questions. With the advent of the information age, the media's response was really quick, and they became more aware of how to generate heat and make money.

Yi Jian was a little speechless, he said: "You guys shut up, such a question will make you look very unprofessional."

"Kevin is a superstar, and he plays a key role in the team. I hope he can recover as soon as possible. The team's defending career needs him. He is undoubtedly one of the top stars in the league."

With affirmation, Durant's little heart that had just been hurt also recovered a little.

But he was still worried about those who scolded him, so he opened a few trumpets on social media to go to the line.

Of course, the trumpet also had to speak, and then the trumpet supported, and Durant played very slippery.

Yi Jian is not lying, Durant has gradually entered the peak, and it is not easy to find a player partner of his level in the league.

Regardless of how the two develop after the end of the first maximum salary, at present, it is the best choice for them to compete for the championship together.

The second opponent of the Thunder's Eastern Conference trip is the Bucks. The Bucks look much weaker than the Celtics and are an easy opponent to deal with.

In fact, the Bucks are really similar to the Celtics in front of the Thunder.

Both teams rely on defense, not offense.

To be honest, the Bucks may be stronger in some aspects, such as inside.

However, the Bucks are now in a disorganized lineup, and Jeff Green is injured.

Jeff Green's upper limit may be the same. The Bucks should continue to train him, but it is already difficult for him to go further.

The Bucks' current offense is still more outside, so Green's injury still has some impact on them.

As soon as the game started, they had problems on the offensive end.

They play more as a team now, without a real playmaker.

As the No. [-] position, Jennings really wants to open up the situation for the team. His choice is to keep shooting, and then keep hitting the iron.

Obviously, Jennings is not the kind of option that can support the team.

The current strongest Bucks may be at the quasi-All-Star level, and it will be difficult for them to fight against the Thunder.

In fact, the Bucks are tougher than the Celtics, maybe because they are younger.

But tenacity alone is useless. If you keep falling behind, you can't win the game.

This is the situation for the Bucks now. They relied on defense to bite the score to the final quarter, but they still couldn't solve the problem in the end. Jennings' shots at the critical moment were basically ironed out.

After returning to the home court, Durant returned, and the team had to face weak chickens.

The Timberwolves' lineup has changed a lot, but they are still weak.

Their draft vision is still not very good.

The point is that they didn't get rid of the biggest obstacle to the team's strengthening, that is, the so-called head coach Kurt Rambis.

Rambis is really not expected to be a head coach. It's amazing that Love, the team's only potential young man, doesn't focus on training.

Love was able to win the rebounding champion under his pressure, which is also invincible.

In the end, Rambis was also kicked out because of his poor team record. After he left, Love played his best season, but Love also has the potential of an All-Star level, and in the end he couldn't lead the Timberwolves to go further.

It doesn't matter if the team is bad for a while, but if it continues to be bad, it shows that it is really hopeless.

After all, in the NBA's draft system, bad teams can actually rise through rookies.

Even if you are blind, there are very few cases where you can't choose at all.

Some teams in the league are ridiculously bad. In fact, it was difficult for ordinary people to manage like this in the past. This is also difficult.

The Timberwolves can be considered one of them, and the Thunder also scored in double figures with six players in this game.

By this time, the Thunder had won five consecutive victories casually, and their record had returned to the normal category of a strong team in the Western Conference.

Now they are ahead of the Spurs, Lakers and Hornets. As the top four in the West, they are okay for the time being.

After all, the start of the season is still very short, and the Thunder are confident that their strength will become more and more stable as the season progresses.

And then, finally came the match where Yi Jian was more focused.

On November 11, the Thunder played against the Mavericks at home.

The current Mavericks' record looks mediocre, and they didn't even make it to the top four in the Western Conference.

They got Chandler in the summer and strengthened the inside again, but the outside world is not so optimistic about them.

Now they feel the same as in previous seasons.

Powerful, but not strong enough.

Only Yi Jian knows that the Mavericks have Dirk Nowitzki this season.

If he meets in the playoffs, can he limit Nowitzki to death, or does he need your help.

Let's try it first, although there is a high probability that the Mavericks in the regular season will be relatively ordinary, but it is still more confident to touch it.

In fact, the most successful thing for the Mavericks this season is to win Chandler, and they are short of an inside line that can be defended.

But they actually didn't have much confidence in Chandler's suitability for the team, so they also spent 5500 million to let Haywood be a backup tire.

It is not so much that the Mavericks have a lot of money, it is better to say that Nowitzki is generous. He chose to cut his salary and renew his contract with the Mavericks to spend so much money.

"Brothers, the Mavericks are going to be interesting this season, cheer up everyone."
