I'm king in the basket

Chapter 474 Chris hits four points!

Expecting Thabeet to defend Li Xing is like expecting Bargnani to defend Durant.

Before Thabeet came on the court, the Thunder's strategy was working.

They had an eight-point lead over the Raptors, and then, after Serge Ibaka was substituted due to emotional issues, the situation suddenly changed.

Li Xing turned over and hit Thabeet with a jumper.

Westbrook didn't believe it and went in to find a cap.

Li Xing, on the other hand, hit the pick-and-roll outside to catch the ball and hit a three-pointer.

In this way, 5 points were recovered inside and outside.

Durant couldn't bear to watch it any longer, and said in a low voice, "How dare Italian bastards guard against me?"

He hit a three-pointer above Bargnani's head, his arrogance reached the extreme, and he also proved that he is not a little black face hiding behind Harden and Westbrook to enjoy the cool.

So far, the point difference has stopped at 5 points.

When the time came, Li Xing was replaced.

Li Xing and Bargnani went off together.

"Nani, your character set has collapsed, you know?"

Li Xing whispered in Bargnani's ear.

"There is such a thing?" Bargnani was surprised, "Why didn't I know?"

"Everyone thinks you'll go crazy when you meet the Thunder, but that's not true." Li Xing said, "You didn't go crazy tonight."

Bargnani said: "They played so well and only won by 5 points. I did this to give them a little hope of victory. Is it wrong?"

Bargnani has now scored 5 points. Compared with his previous performance against the Thunder, it can be said that he is unqualified.

Looking back, Durant's score is also 5 points.

If Durant knew about this, he might be so angry that he would score 2 points angrily, thereby opening the distance.

In the final period of the first quarter and the opening stage of the second quarter, the Raptors did not play well.

And the Thunder's wings, especially Durant and Harden's bench, they performed extremely well.

The Thunder has been silently collecting wings who can shoot but don't have much playing time, Cook, such as Hayward, who was acquired last season.Although their fixed-point shooting and non-open shooting feel different, this does not prevent Detonator (Thunder management) from loving them.

This group of people opened fire on both wings as Westbrook's five-star salute after the three thunderbolts replaced the two.

Stephenson met what he called an all-round enhanced version of himself.

Westbrook is extremely fierce, and the time when Li Xing is not present is his solo.

Other people on the field, opponents or teammates are just a foil for this solo, he is the only superstar.

When he tore through Stephenson's defense for the third time and broke through to give Sefolosha a three-pointer, the point difference reached 13 points.

"We want Laki~!"

The audience shouted angrily, they couldn't tolerate the opponent just pulling the score away.

Only 3 minutes have passed, and Li Xing usually rests until 7 or 6 minutes into the second quarter.

Do you want to exchange Li Xing back in advance?

Snyder mused over the matter.

There seems to be no hesitation, the team is facing a trap, and it is the best choice for Li Xing to come back.

Then, Will Barton's brilliant performance dispelled Snyder's confusion.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a big kid. Button attacked with the ball, broke Sefolosha's defense, slammed on the brakes to avoid the help defense, and made a layup.

This ball stabilized the situation, the morale of the Raptors team was like a rainbow, and they defended another Thunder ball.

Stephenson also noticed that Button was about to explode, and he fed the ball as soon as halftime passed.

Barton pulled up the three-pointer with invincible confidence and soared directly.

No one expected that the Raptors would stabilize because of the outbreak of a rookie.

The rotation was not broken, Barton scored 5 points in a row, and the two sides entered a confrontation again.

What Westbrook has always been criticized for is that he always melts his IQ when his mind is hot.

At this moment, there is no Durant, no Harden.

He can do whatever he wants.

The Raptors set a trap for him, and Westbrook dribbled in, and was then dribbled out with a cap.

"If Russell continues to be so reckless, he will suffer more."

Angus said with a smile.

Sean Lang has lost his voice, and Master Wei's performance is truly beyond praise.

At this time, Brian Davis, who was in the C position, said some useless nonsense: "Yeah, he needs to calm down."

After Barton broke out, Li Xing believed that there would be no problems on the field for the time being.

His attention came to Dragic: "Golan, what's wrong with you?"

Li Xing's face was extremely indifferent, and he didn't seem to care about others.

But he really does care about people.

Dragic said: "I don't know, I feel bad, whatever I do is going to screw up."

"Don't panic, you're fine."

Li Xing took the mint-flavored sports drink from the trainer: "Take a sip."

"You know I don't like the taste."

"Sometimes, you need to try something different." Li Xing put the drink in his hand.

Dragic took a sip, and his expression was even more distorted than that of Zeng Xiaoxian who was eating noodles. His charming handsome face suddenly condensed into a treasure that could be photographed and hung at the door to avoid evil.

Is it that bad?

Li Xing has always admired mint-flavored drinks, and he feels that his whole body is sublimated when he takes a sip.

A sip after a game is better than an orgasm.

The situation on the court is becoming tense.

Westbrook couldn't beat Stephenson, and his five-star salute team missed after the Raptors stepped up their defense.

The point difference, which reached 13 points at most, is gradually narrowing.

Thunder coach Scott Brooks couldn't bear it anymore. He called out the names of Durant and Harden, and prepared to let them replace Westbrook.

Seeing that there was a transfer on the other side, Snyder naturally couldn't let Li Xing continue to sit off the court.

"Larch, Chris, get ready to play."

Snyder did not call Dragic, and now it is the point of chasing points. He is not sure whether Dragic has recovered his form.

If you put him up to cause damage when chasing points, it may directly interrupt the team's momentum of chasing points.

Seeing the bosses of both teams standing on the sidelines, the two sides deliberately increased their range of movements, causing the referee to blow his whistle.

Gray happily raised his hand, handing over to Li Xing on the spot.

"Lucky, get the points back," Gray said.

"no problem."

Li Xing spoke to the full, leaving no room for it.

Middleton replaced the fiery Barton.

"It seems that both Khris Middleton and Will Barton have done a great job, and the dragon management's vision is indeed very good." Davis praised the draft vision of the Raptors management.

Angus nodded triumphantly: "Yes, they basically selected the best players with their picks, which is really great."

Regarding draft vision, Sean Lang also has something to say: "When it comes to draft, the Thunder are not bad."

"Okay, let's get back to the game." How could Angus let him have the opportunity to show off Detonator's glorious draft history, and just skipped it.

Li Xing walked to the field, but they still didn't replace Ibaka.

The Thunder really don't have many insiders. This time it's not Thabeet or Cole Aldridge, but Kendrick Perkins.

Li Xing has fought against this person many times, and it is basically a rhythm of seeing each other once.

But there is no doubt that he is indeed capable.

It's just that his style is too old compared to the NBA, which is more and more about space and rhythm.

Perkins' tactical role for the Thunder today is mainly: to block the position and prevent people from entering the penalty area; to push them out of the penalty area by various means.He's also grabbing defensive rebounds and blocking the occasional shot, but not much.

He's a malicious player.Like KG, he will keep a dark face and take a matter seriously.He would turn things like basketball into dignity and hatred, and then put on a face as soon as he stood on the court: "I'm not playing games with you! I'm in a bad mood!"

Any team needs a villain, with a dark face, who infuses the whole team with hatred and blood, and forces the whole team to maintain their hunger for victory.This is where Perkins is truly indispensable to the Thunder.

The difference between him and Garnett is that Garnett has a dark face, and he can still scold you in different ways for an hour when it's time to scold your mother.

But can you count on Perkins to swear?At most you can detect a hint of "he seems to be scolding me?" information from his face.

The combination of Durant and Harden seems to be better than the combination of Durant and Westbrook.

Harden pays attention to efficiency and is a player who doesn't like to execute inefficient offenses very much.

In this regard, he is completely opposite to Westbrook, and he also has the consciousness to drive his teammates.

After seeing Durant asking for the ball, he will pass the ball quickly.

Middleton came out to defend Durant, and the two were not of the same weight.

Durant easily broke through Middleton's defense, and a heart-piercing mid-range shot showed his refined offensive methods.

Last season's playoffs let the Raptors know that their flanks must be talented and organized, and they must accumulate enough depth and thickness without superstars.

So they did not hesitate to send Tony Allen away, let DeRozan play his favorite second position, and then put Middleton in the starting lineup, to see how far this young man who Li Xing placed high hopes on can play.

Middleton did not disappoint. His shooting skills are exactly the shortage of the Raptors.

Although his defense is not good, it is not without room for improvement.

Li Xing liked his self-confidence very much. When they were present at the same time, he took the initiative to cover for the latter.

Durant's ribs are difficult to pass through his body. Watching Middleton take the ball from the outside, Sefolosha's defense sticks up.

Middleton was in excellent condition. The moment he got the ball, he ignored Sefolosha, who was so close to him, and shot immediately.

Sefolosha knocked him down in the air.

The whistle sounded.

Middleton hit a three-pointer.

"Chris for four!"

Angus called out: "This young man is fearless!"

Sefolosha stomped his feet fiercely, not knowing whether he was complaining about the referee's penalty, or was discouraged because his defense was not in place in time.
