Chapter 308 Defeating Skills With Strength

The Thunder team attacked, and the ball was quickly delivered to Durant. Durant dribbled the ball with his right hand, concentrated his strength on his left shoulder, kept pushing against Fernandez behind him, and approached the basket step by step, without Leonard Behind him, Durant felt a lot easier.

In order to fight against James and Anthony, he has increased his strength. Even though Leonard is inferior to Durant in other aspects, he is definitely not at a disadvantage in terms of strength. Relatively high efficiency, but the pressure exerted by the opponent also made Durant uncomfortable. Replaced by Fernandez, who is weaker in all aspects, Durant played more easily.

However, the Nets didn't care about being scored by Durant at all. The basketball was fired quickly. Towards Curry, and at this time Lopez took advantage of the opportunity to drive inside, Curry got the ball, and the two completed a beautiful 2-over-2 cooperation. Ibaka, who was nailed to the outside line, was unable to defend, so he had to watch Lopez completed a slam dunk and continued to bite the score.

The Nets' offense is more blooming, and players on the court can play a role. More blooming makes it difficult for the Thunder to defend, and the Thunder's obvious inside height advantage is always difficult to play. Hold on, at the end of the third quarter, the Nets trailed by one point 88-89, slowly reversing the already difficult situation.

The game entered the fourth quarter, and Stevens replaced the main players according to the regular rotation to rest. Up to now, Curry has played the most time in the first three quarters of this season. He has played more than 32 minutes. And taking on the heaviest task on the offensive end, Stevens also had to consider his physical condition.

In fact, it is not necessarily that Curry is really that fragile, but his past injury history makes Stevens more or less a shadow of a snake, and the Nets' lineup this season has given the team a relatively high fault tolerance rate. , Let the team have the confidence to allow Curry to check in more in three quarters.

The Thunder, on the other hand, changed the previous substitution rules of Dewey's duo and junior, and insisted on keeping Westbrook on the court. On the one hand, this represents Brooks' emphasis on the game. On the other hand, it can also be seen that Brooks does not trust the team's bench lineup, especially Jeremy Lin. Arranging for Westbrook, who also needs to hold the ball, to partner with Jeremy Lin at the back line. Jeremy Lin, who does not have the ball, does not play so well.

Regardless of the thickness of the lineup or the use of troops by the head coach, the Nets have a certain advantage, and the situation of the game should also develop in a direction that is beneficial to the Nets. However, there is a kind of genius in competitive sports, no matter how headwind the situation is, he can beat the situation back by himself. Curry faced the Nuggets and the Spurs, and there was a situation where one person broke the game. Today, the Nets also enjoy the unrestricted nature of this superstar. In less than three minutes, Westbrook rushed to the basket, counterattacked fast break, zombie jumper, pull-up three-pointer was omnipotent, and hit 6 of 7 shots to crush the Nets. Reggie Jackson, Sefolosha's seemingly good backcourt defense line collapsed in front of him, and on the offensive end, Reggie Jackson's brain-dead operation also made Stevens feel helpless. In the first game, Stevens has done a good job in tactical arrangement and adjustment, but the only two flaws were magnified into fatal mistakes under the strong firepower of the Thunder, one Durant, one Weiss Brook, two people who are incomprehensible to the Nets, got together and completed a classic battle of force and cleverness.

Curry, Ray Allen, and Leonard came on the stage, watching the team trailing by 14 points, feeling a little heartbroken. What makes the score difference even more frustrating is that the game has entered the rhythm of the Thunder team. The Nets are well-known in the league for being fast or slow. Coincidentally, the Thunder team is also fast and galloping. Role, let your feet go to attack, the Nets can't take advantage, and be patient to grind the position. Durant's stability makes the Nets desperate.

Curry hit three consecutive three-pointers at the last moment, which once helped the team narrow the point difference to 7 points, but this wonderful performance did not help. A wonderful offensive battle ended, and the Nets scored 126:135 Losing to the Thunder, while losing the Christmas War, they also lost the No. 1 throne in the Eastern Conference.

Curry hit 10 three-pointers in the game and scored a high score of 51 points. However, the Thunder duo Durant and Westbrook scored 41 points and 44 points respectively. The two directly destroyed the Nets The team's entire defensive system, and the scene of Stevens touching his forehead and sighing in the fourth quarter facing the unstoppable Westbrook has also become a classic memory of the league this season. Good coaches can design various tactics to target opponents, but a real superstar is one who can break through this constraint and break the balance on the field. What's even more brutal is that the Thunder have two such superstars.

Losing to the Thunder in the absence of West is not an unacceptable result. But it's the smart thing to learn from any loss, especially this imaginary preview of the Finals.

A great defensive player! This is the goal Jiang Mingliang set for himself after the game. For the team's long-term goals, the team must have such a character.

. . . . . . .

The team lost a key battle, and the atmosphere of the whole team will naturally not be very good. But fortunately, on Christmas day, everyone can still enjoy a day off as an adjustment, and Jiang Mingliang and Taylor also took a private plane back to New York at the first time, spending Christmas with peace of mind.

"Our family used to have our own farm. Every Christmas, my mother would take me and my younger brother to hang the Christmas tree by ourselves, and string the lights into it one by one." Putting the Christmas tree in the designated place, Taylor recalled.

"But that kind of time is very short. You moved to Nashville for your dream at a very young age to study music." Jiang Mingliang looked at Taylor with affection and told some of her experiences.

There is no saying in the United States that "one minute on stage and ten years off stage", but Taylor Swift's experience can still confirm this sentence. For her music dream, Taylor Swift almost lost her teenage years between the ages of 12 and 18, constantly absorbing nutrients and making progress, and slowly broke into a world in Nashville.

"Now I get a lot of what I want, but some of the lost experiences will never come back. When I was in Australia, I saw a family of three or five on a farm, happily snuggling together and watching local TV. Program, at that time, I was also thinking, when was the last time I was with my family and enjoyed every bit of life without pressure? I probably concluded that it was seven or eight years ago, before I debuted." Taylor Swift Today, I have a lot of feelings. When will she be like this again? Maybe one day, after she married Jiang Mingliang, she would play the role of mother in the life of a family of three, and no longer worry about her commercial income, album sales, media popularity, and award competition.
