If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 323 Fast-paced season

The Thunder have now easily won ten consecutive victories. When Lopez was injured, they felt that they were not very lucky.

But they are really strong, even in the trough, other teams can't seize the opportunity.

Back at home, they ushered in a challenge from the Pistons.

The Pistons are still in a state of confusion, and Stuckey has proved that he really can't do it.

Now the hope of the Pistons is young people, such as second-year insider Monroe, such as rookie Knight.

So this season, they can only train rookies to live.

Because the opponent's offensive ability was too poor, the Thunder won easily again.

Then they took the Hornets lightly and won [-] consecutive victories.

The more important opponents this month are only the Clippers at the end of the month.

Before that, they have to go to an away game against the Warriors.

The Warriors have slowly become what Yi Jian remembers, and Clay has also joined the team, but because of the presence of two guns in the backcourt, he can only play as a substitute for the time being.

And Curry, who is more efficient, can't get more possessions, and the Warriors are already considering trade-offs.

Ellis' career in the Warriors has almost entered the countdown.

It's completely a conflict of play styles. The Warriors don't need two offensive guards, and the one with poor efficiency will inevitably leave.

Warriors who have not yet entered the right track are still relatively weak.

Curry is very strong, but he can't overwhelm the opponent's stars on both ends of the offense and defense, and he can't change the team all at once.

The characteristics of stars and stars are also destined to have different career processes.

But everyone can see that Curry is getting better and better.

And the Clippers, who have traffic in the summer and are expected to become contenders in the Western Conference, are finally going to Los Angeles to experience it.

The outside world's expectations for the Clippers are not lower than the previous Big Three teams.

The Clippers are the most active team in the summer free market. They won Butler, Perkins, Billups, and more importantly, they won Paul.

Both Paul and Griffin are well-known players, and their combination is extremely exciting.

Only Yi Jian knew that these two guys were the type whose reputation was slightly greater than their strength.

It's not that they are not strong, but that they are not that strong.

So for the Clippers, Yi Jian is not very worried.

The Clippers' defense and offense actually fell short of expectations.

They have people in every position, but they are all a little bit away from the top teams.

A small gap determines that they will not be competitive enough in the playoffs.

The Clippers started relatively mediocre, but they were still in the top three in the Western Conference for a relatively long time when the overall situation was not very stable.

For the team that is still running in, it is already very good, so the outside world will also be optimistic about them.

But in fact, it is difficult for them to go any further.

Because they can't solve the shortcomings of the stars next, neither Paul nor Griffin can attack.

In the future, they can only find a sixth person to make do with, which is also helpless.

Moreover, the Clippers now have a lot of ball-holding points, and how to allocate them is more troublesome.

Their current starters are Paul, Billups, Butler, Griffin and Perkins.

There are also attackers like Maurice Williams and Foye on the bench, and it feels like they are indeed full of offensive power.

It's all about taking the ball, but no one can make a final decision.

Under the influence of Yi Jian, the original centers of the two teams actually exchanged, which is also interesting.

After the start of the game, the Clippers entered the state very quickly at home.

The main reason is that Paul is in excellent form, and Griffin can't afford to make trouble when he meets Yi Jian.

In the main lineup, the Clippers are slightly ahead.

But during the rotation period, the Clippers showed their power again and established their advantage.

In the second half, Yi Jian went crazy and scored 43 points, but the team still regretted losing.

The Clippers' win also aroused heated discussions from the outside world, thinking that the Thunder finally met their opponent.

The media also made progress quickly, as if they wanted to get back the money they earned from the shrinking season.

Yi Jian felt slightly regretful, but also paid more attention to it.

The loss of this game is due to the state of both sides.

But if Yi Jian started with more aggressiveness, the situation would be different.

Yi Jian still underestimated his opponent, which is not good.

Even if the Clippers' real competitiveness is not that strong, the rest of the Thunder don't know it, and it's easy to put pressure on other players.

Therefore, after the game, Yi Jian organized people to watch the video to look for problems, "We are slack, there are problems in defense, and the offense is not decisive enough."

Lowry also criticized himself. He felt good this season. In fact, he consciously wanted to fight Paul and tried his best to attack, but he messed up.

And Sefolosha was injured again, and he was a bit back and forth during this time.

This time, the team also decided to let him rest.

Danny Green is officially in charge, and it is estimated that he will not return it.

The North Carolina captain has an excellent golf quotient and has fully practiced three-pointers. He is much more stable than Sefolosha and is more suitable for the Thunder's tactics.

In fact, Sefolosha has also made progress in three-pointers, but he suffered injuries at the critical moment of the competition, and his fate was also bad.

The Thunder's winning streak was interrupted, but they are still the team with the best record in the league, that's how awesome it is.

Now their competitors also hope to take advantage of Thunderclap's injuries to stop them.

Otherwise, it would be really difficult for other strong teams to raise their confidence.

The thunder is getting stronger and stronger, it is too shocking.

In February, the Thunder's schedule is also very dense.

Yi Jian is also nagging about health problems more now, making everyone feel that something is wrong and take care of it quickly, and there is no problem taking a few games of rest.

In the regular season, they really don't need to worry, just stay healthy and fight hard in the playoffs.

Starting in February, the Thunder played an away game against the Mavericks.

On the side of the Mavericks, Kidd was injured and truce. When Kidd was there, he felt old, but after he was not there, there was a problem with the Mavericks' organization, and the team's offense became worse.

The long break in summer, coupled with the dense schedule of the new season, is really a blow to an older team like the Mavericks.

In the first quarter of this game, the Mavericks were aggressive, but the next quarter stretched their hips more than the next, and they were directly killed by the Thunder in the third quarter, completely lacking the demeanor of a strong team from last season.

For Nowitzki, Yi Jian also had some regrets.

But this is the cruelty of competitive sports, and while Yi Jian felt sorry, he would lock Nowitzki to death.

Without a losing streak, the Thunder took down the average Mavericks and continued to maintain the number one record in the league.

At the same time, this year's All-Star starters were selected at a very fast speed.

Yi Jian and Durant continue to consolidate the striker position in the West, they are unbeatable.

And Lopez's absence, let the Lakers center Bynum pick up the bargain.

Before Lopez took advantage of Dayao, and now someone else is taking advantage of it, it shows that there is really no one at the center position.

Bynum is really not qualified, and it is imperative for the league to cancel the center position.
