Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 684 Durant Begging

Westbrook's physical fitness is indeed a bit exaggerated. He has not experienced the injuries brought to him by Beverly. Westbrook's talent on the court is absolutely unstoppable. But God gave Westbrook such an exaggerated physical fitness, but he didn't give him the basketball IQ that can match this body. After Durant was injured, Westbrook's weakness of lack of offensive means was infinitely magnified. The outside shot is not accurate, and the mid-range jump shot can't kill people. The main thing is to rely on the body to fight inward. Relying on Superman's physical fitness and endurance, Westbrook averaged 30.8 points per game, only 0.1 points behind Curry and ranked second in the scoring list, but his overwhelming possession of the ball and shots doomed him to be a lone hero Suppose, after all, teammates are human beings, not machines, and they all need the possession of the ball to maintain their touch. Two-thirds of the possession of the ball is in the hands of one person, and it is strange that others can throw the ball in.

In a sense, if it is a full-blooded Nets team, there is really no need to be taboo about the current Thunder team. Regardless of the fact that this team's lineup seems to have been strengthened, there are more people playing. But after Durant's athletic ability declined and Ibaka was no longer able to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, it was difficult for the Thunder to keep up with the rhythm of the full-blooded Nets on the defensive end. What does it look like?

Curry can easily punish the Thunder's inside line, while Westbrook struggles to score with his dream-chasing tricks and Boshen's long arms covering the sky. The Thunder lacks 3D players on the outside line. Morrow and Ray Allen are both Because the defensive end was not strong enough to be reused, the outcome of the game was not much suspense in the first half.

The highlight of the second half of the game was the battle between Curry and Westbrook for the scoring title. To be honest, Jiang Mingliang still hopes that Curry can continue to win some personal honors when the team assumes that the team has little hope of winning the championship this season. If you can win the MVP+ scoring champion, the gap between Curry and James' honor accumulation will be further narrowed, and the team's business development will be easier.

Curry himself also does not intend to give up the honor of the scoring champion. On the other hand, the scoring champion is also an important bargaining chip for him to compete for the MVP. Curry can make sacrifices for his teammates when he should make sacrifices for his teammates. Conversely, when he wants to fight for honor, his teammates are willing to create opportunities for him.

The Thunder pay attention to physical confrontation, and the shortcomings of the incomplete defensive system are caught by Curry, who is full of off-ball running attributes. He finds opportunities to make shots in a row. The speed of scoring is really fast, and Curry is really a bit of a demonstration today ", "Striving for the Front" these attributes are there, and the shots are not ambiguous at all. On the other hand, Westbrook is also strong when he is strong. Although he can't make shots, he can draw fouls! Going to the free throw line 9 times in a single quarter, Westbrook scored 15 points in the third quarter, well, only 3 points less than Curry.

With 50 points in three quarters, the team led by 24 points. According to reason, under normal circumstances, Curry should not play again in the fourth quarter. But couldn't bear Westbrook's face, and stayed on the court to chase points at the beginning of the fourth quarter. In 4 minutes, he led the team to chase the point difference to 92:108 and brought Curry back to the court.

Curry held the ball in his arms with his left hand, and raised his right hand to signal for stability.

Porzingis and Green immediately began to deliberately run to the other side, and Carter also walked to the outside line knowingly, but Simmons just covered him from a distance, and did not intend to take a step closer.

Westbrook stood in front of Curry. Curry used his left foot as a support point, turned halfway to the right, and stood obliquely in front of Westbrook, protecting the ball well. Green suddenly ran over and leaned towards Westbrook, and Ibaka behind him immediately stuck to Curry.

Everything is just that second, that moment! Curry suddenly moved and swayed to the left. After Westbrook moved subconsciously, Curry stepped out to the right with his right foot, and passed through the gap between Westbrook and Ibaka like a butterfly piercing flowers. Jumping away, like a ghost, he suddenly succeeded in breaking through. A fake pass took away Simmons' center of gravity, and then he jumped against Olynik's defense. He picked it up, flicked it slightly, the ball was thrown upwards in an arc very softly, wiped the backboard, changed its direction simply, and fell into the basket.

A beautiful one-on-four also completed 2+1. After landing, Curry spit out his braces, started chewing again, and danced his favorite shoulder-shaking dance by the way.

This beautiful score also hurt the morale of the Thunder team. Judging from the players' reactions, they were obviously a little desperate. In the next round, Westbrook wanted to fight back with the same beautiful goal. Compared with Curry's dexterity, Westbrook's offense was more single-threaded, rushing in a straight line, facing Porzingis, and then missed the ball.

To be honest, there was no problem with Porzingis' defensive position or defensive action, but he was still whistled for a foul by the referee. The Latvian boy was also anxious about this, and rushed to the referee to complain.

How should I put it, this is not the first time. Obviously there is no problem with his defense. In this game, Boshen has five fouls so far, and only two of them are real. One is somewhat controversial, and the remaining two are at least Westbrook's star whistle, without bullying honest people like this.

And Porzingis's temper is really not as good as it looks. He kept talking about the referee, and from the look on his face, he knew it was the national curse from Eastern Europe. Green didn't even stop him. After eating two Ts in a row, he was directly invited out of the court.

The big screen at the scene only replayed the ball once and then stopped playing it. The Thunder's home commentator only dared to talk about "respect for referees" and "zero tolerance" these clichéd topics. Because strictly speaking, if this ball is to be blown, it is also blowing Westbrook to hit someone with the ball.

Fortunately, a little accident did not affect the Nets' smooth victory in the second half of the game, and Curry also made a mid-range shot with 3 minutes left in the game, raising his score to 61 points and then resting. Launched an impact towards his own scoring record of 63 points.

In the end, the Nets defeated the Thunder 129:111, ending the team's three-game losing streak. (33-14)

Back in the locker room, the players first celebrated happily. After a three-game losing streak, Curry used such a wonderful performance to lead the team to victory, which can be said to be the best way to rectify his name.

Jiang Mingliang also came to the locker room and congratulated everyone.

After the carnival, the next step was to take a shower and replenish energy. Jiang Mingliang had just left the locker room, but he saw a tall, slender figure standing outside the door, pacing outside the Nets locker room.

"Kevin?" Jiang Mingliang was a little surprised to see Durant on this occasion.

Although he knew that Durant had the attribute of "surrendering the enemy", Jiang Mingliang was not mentally prepared to get Durant so early. If nothing else, the Thunder would not agree.

Fortunately, things didn't go as smoothly as Jiang Mingliang thought. The purpose of Durant's coming was not to accept the vote, but the reason for his coming made Jiang Mingliang even more surprised. He wanted a lunch box.

"..." To be honest, Durant is a rich man's dick, as can be seen from his appearance, image, and behavior, but it's common for ordinary people to come to the visiting team's locker room to beg for food. not come out. Even if Durant didn't play, the home team wouldn't even prepare a lunch box for him, right?

However, the reason is not like this. It is simply that after Kanter joined the team, he only ate halal dishes, and the team chef also specially prepared halal dishes for him. As a result, teammates such as Westbrook and Olynik tasted Kanter’s After Halal dishes, I like it very much. Everyone eats Halal dishes, and the chef is happy to save trouble. Then Durant was not used to eating, and the team did not prepare a special lunch box for him. In addition, he was recuperating from his injury and would not usually play away games with the team, so the team chef did not make any changes for this.

But whether it was the Thunder's management, the Thunder's players, or the Thunder's staff, even Jiang Mingliang didn't expect Durant to come to the visiting team's locker room to ask for a lunch box. Although there was no preparation, Jiang Mingliang immediately turned around and walked into the locker room, lowered his body and took out four boxes of food and handed them to Durant.

"Is it enough?" A little thing can win the favor of this superstar, how could Jiang Mingliang let go of such a thing.

"That's enough, thank you." Durant smiled at Jiang Mingliang, a little envious of the good atmosphere of the Nets.

In addition to the team's performance in the past two years, the Nets' hardware facilities are also the best in the league. The Nets and the Mavericks are the only two teams in the league that have their own private planes. The Nets’ arena is the number one in the league. In terms of logistics team support, the information released in the documentary should not be too enviable. The success of the team is really a combination of many factors.

Jiang Mingliang also didn't understand the Thunder's attitude towards Durant. To be honest, how did the Nets treat Curry? Curry likes to keep food, bread, beef, chicken, and salad separately, and the team specially ordered a lunch box for him with built-in compartments. Curry especially likes to eat popcorn. Barclays Center has interviewed 10 popcorn masters before and after, and let Curry choose from various aspects such as cream, sweetness, and degree of puffing. This is respect for superstars.

Durant doesn't eat halal food, and the Thunder don't even prepare lunch boxes at home. Are you kidding me?

The score of 33 wins and 14 losses is also the worst year for the Nets after January in the past three years. Fortunately, the team still has a Curry cover, and both Aminu and JR Smith can come back before the All-Star Game , This is also a great help for the team.

. . . . . .

When the time came to February, the filming of the TV series "Zhu Xian" was finally announced after three months. The length of the TV series was about 40 episodes, which was just right for the volume of the novel, without any moisture. After all, Jiang Mingliang cares more about how many users can be added to the video website after the TV series is launched, compared to filming a few more episodes and selling them to the TV station to make more money. Jiang Mingliang is more important to attracting watermelon videos.

Compared with Kuyou Video, Penguin Video, Xigua Video itself is not well-known. So far, it has relied more on "Running Man", "Gossip Girl", "This is Slam Dunk" and some photographers invited by the company. Come, the big project "Zhu Xian" is also an excellent opportunity, and take advantage of the trend to carry out a wave of promotion for Xigua Video.

And after the TV series was announced, Liu Lingfei also came to New York to report on her work immediately, and brought her costume of "Lu Xueqi" by the way. Liu Lingfei also liked her look in this drama very much.

Accompanying her was another little girl, Song Zhuer, the cousin of her best friend Su Chang. Song Zhuer was involved in the entertainment industry at a very young age, and then came to the United States to study for a few years. Public high schools in the United States know everything, as long as the tuition is in place, it is up to you whether you want to study or not. Song Zhuer is one of those purely gold-plated ones. Halfway through the semester, the crew of "Zhu Xian" recruited people, and then ran away. Going back to the audition, she was born as a child actor after all, and she was so juicy, she was easily selected to participate in the role.

No, the new semester started, and she came to the United States to continue her third year of high school.

Not long ago, the news about tearing shallots was very credible. In addition, Liu Lingfei had just finished filming "Zhu Xian", so she didn't stay in China during the Spring Festival, and flew directly to the United States. On Song Zhuer's side, this point was directly confirmed. Although the little girl was young, she had a lot of calculations in her heart, so she wanted to come over with Liu Lingfei to meet Jiang Mingliang and see if she had a chance to hug her thigh.

As for Liu Lingfei, she was also used to bringing Song Zhuer by her side. She was as naive as she was. She really felt that Jiang Mingliang would not know about using Song Zhuer's account to contact Liu Xiaoli.

"Sister Lingfei, with such an expensive house price in New York, you actually bought a house here. Your salary is so high." Song Zhu'er envied after browsing the apartment.

"House prices in New York are not that expensive, and you can afford it in the future." Liu Lingfei smiled, feeling a little bit bitter in her heart.

Of course, there is still a gap between New York's housing prices and China's. The actual price of Jiang Mingliang's apartment for Liu Lingfei was 15,000 per square meter, and the total price would be about 3 million US dollars, not even one-third of the apartment that Tomson Yipin had. Of course, housing prices in New York are not expensive. Of course, New York’s more ruthless property tax is 1% per year. If you live in a $3 million apartment in Manhattan, you have to pay a tax of $30,000. The reason is that if anyone dares to speculate in real estate, most of the profits will have to pay taxes.

After freshening up, Liu Lingfei took Song Zhu'er to the restaurant next to the apartment building to eat. Just after ordering and before the food was served, Jiang Mingliang called.

After Liu Lingfei hesitated for a moment, she pointed to the bathroom, motioned for it, and then walked over to answer the phone.

"Back to New York?"

I don't know what method Jiang Mingliang used. Anyway, he knows his whereabouts well. Liu Lingfei sighed: "Well, I just set foot on the land of America, about 50 minutes."

"I'm going there at night, so prepare yourself," Jiang Mingliang said.

"I'm inconvenient today..."

"I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm just letting you know." Although Jiang Mingliang's tone was calm, it was unquestionable, leaving Liu Lingfei speechless.
