NBA Legends Manager

Chapter 54
After three games, Curry, Harden, Matthews and Gibson have gradually adapted to the intensity of this game,

Especially in the past few days, Presti took them to practice together with Westbrook, Durant, Jordan and other core players in the morning, and continued to practice with the Summer League team in the afternoon.

This makes them more mature and reliable both psychologically and technically.

The first knockout game of the Thunder Summer League will be held at 8:[-] p.m. today. In the locker room before the game, Curry held the magazine he just bought outside and said angrily: "Why do these media always look down on me? No matter how many points I score or how well I perform, they will always talk about the official NBA games."

"Haha, it's normal. Anyone with your body will think that you can't do it in the NBA. Besides, they think you are still a shooter, and they take it for granted that under high-pressure defense, your shots will deform," Presti comforted.

"Hmph! I'm going to beat all the remaining teams. How dare the media look down on me?" Curry still said angrily.

Presti can only mourn for the next team, and hope that Curry's touch will not come so fast!

Since the elementary school students' anger was already full, and they wanted to release it a long time ago, the result was a tragedy for the Blazers!
I saw the elementary school students on the court dribbled to the frontcourt and cast a pick and roll!

But it was this extremely unreasonable attack method that succeeded three times in a row!
And when the Blazers' defenders were close to the defense, Curry's dexterous breakthrough made the defenders suddenly suspicious!
I thought that Curry would shrink the score if he was replaced, but Harden came up again, which made the Blazers' substitute even more painful!
The backup center was stunned and made 3 fouls within 4 points!Gibson's interior is overwhelming!
最终雷霆再一次的大比分获胜！以22的绝对优势战胜了开拓者，而此次比赛库里拿到了32分4篮板6助攻的数据，其中三分球9中7，

And Harden scored 34 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists!Can't help but sigh what kind of monsters these two are!

The individual performances of Curry and Harden were far from over. On the third day, the Thunder won again. Curry scored a new high of 39 points and made 14 of 9 three-pointers. Although Harden only scored 20 points, he contributed a full 13 assists!
At this time, the media finally let go of their temporary prejudice, and all praised Curry's excellence and Presti's vision.

Some media even boasted Curry as the answer to the league's future point guard!
Today is the day of the Summer League final between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers. Although the Thunder beat the Clippers in the first game of the Summer League, many people still think that the Clippers will win the final!

Although the Thunder performed amazingly in the past, winning the opponent by 20.4 points per game, the Clippers' performance was not bad at all. Except for the Thunder's first loss, they also averaged 17.5 points per game in the remaining games!
Especially Griffin's performance is too amazing!That's right, it's amazing, averaging 27.7 points and 15 rebounds per game!

Some people even think that Griffin will be Duncan's successor, the new generation of the league's number one power forward! On the one hand, there is the dazzling superstar of the league threatened by Presti, and on the other is the beast power forward Griffin who is expected by many people. Therefore, this battle is particularly eye-catching.

In the locker room, Presti crossed his legs and looked at the magazine he just brought. When he saw Curry's answer from the league point guard, he spit out water!

"General manager! What are you doing!" Curry looked at Presti and then at himself, with a look of grievance and helplessness!

"Sorry, soory, I just read an article about you, I couldn't help it," Presti said apologetically.

"Oh? Write mine." Curry heard that he wrote his own, his eyes lit up, and he didn't care about the water sprayed on his chest.

"Look." Presti handed the magazine to Curry.

Curry took it, and just saw the article written by himself at a glance, only to see Curry smirking while watching, how happy and happy that would be.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think he's right?" Presti's face immediately became serious, and before Curry could answer,

Presti continued: "I said before that you will be the most dazzling superstar in the league, but that needs a process, not now,

The meaning of the media writing articles is nothing more than praise and kill you. Once you do not perform well, no matter how much praise you receive today, you will receive double criticism tomorrow! "

Speaking of this, Presti stood up and patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Perform well tonight and convince the media from the heart."

Curry nodded emphatically.

Half an hour later, the 2009 Summer League Finals officially began!
At the beginning of the game, Griffin showed a super competitive state!First, Gibson was dunked inside the grid, and then Curry's pass was intercepted, and one-stop dunks!

Then there was another dribble from behind to the inside, attracting the defense to shift the corner to the open space laterally, and the teammate caught the ball and made a hollow hit!

As soon as the Thunder came up, they were beaten 7:0
The assistant coach immediately called a timeout!

After a few words, the pause ended and the game continued!

In fact, the timeout called by the coach just now did not say anything practical, it was just to let the players wake up,
After taking the ball, Curry faced the defender with a small rhythm change and rushed in. When he reached the free throw line, he made a small throw!

The Clippers still use Griffin as the axis to drive the offense, and continue to torture Gibson under the basket!Once double-teamed, the ball will be played immediately. Fortunately, the Clippers have a good outside touch tonight, so after the first half, the score of the two sides was 56:56!

All the spectators present thought that the whole game would be anxious, at least until the next few minutes of the fourth quarter,
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Thunder coach replaced Curry, Harden, Matthews, a white big man with a three-pointer, and a short center with super fast movement speed!

Seeing this lineup, the commentary next to it was hard to understand, and I couldn't help asking: "This lineup has defense? Especially can't the inside line be crushed by Griffin?"

As a result, when Curry dribbled to the frontcourt and threw the ball two steps away from the three-point line, the incomprehension of the commentary turned into amazement!
Since more than half of the Clippers' first-half score was related to Griffin, Griffin did not play and rested off the court as soon as the third quarter came up.
So when the Clippers fell into position, the offense stalled!
When it was 24 seconds faster, it could only be thrown away!
bang!Strike the iron!
Harden, who took the rebound, went to the frontcourt one-stop, and took advantage of his unstable foothold to score a three-pointer!
The Clippers attack and strike again!

Here Matthews also scored a three-pointer when he was transported to the frontcourt!
The Thunder's tactics are very simple. You don't need to wait for your teammates to counterattack quickly. If you have the ability to throw a three-pointer on the spot, you can throw a three-pointer, and if you don't, you can break through the penalty area!
And once it falls into a positional battle, the Thunder with Curry and Harden can play singles at will, and the efficiency is not low at all.

Seeing that the point difference was about to be widened, the Clippers replaced Griffin!
But the effect was low, because Griffin couldn't keep up with the running Thunder!Thunder's rhythm is too fast!Although the Thunder's position basically couldn't defend against Griffin, Griffin couldn't defend against the running Thunder at all!

Therefore, the final score was fixed at 89:80, the Thunder once again won the Summer League championship, Curry was successfully elected as the MVP of the 2009 Summer League, and Harden was elected as the FMVP of the Summer League!
