NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

The game continues.

The players on both sides stood up, and the next moment, what made Durant feel extremely awkward happened again, and Beverley's claws were up again.

Waterfark!

Are you really holding on to me?

What makes Durant extremely speechless is that no matter what look he makes, the latter will return a shy and sincere smile.

You laugh at Nima!

Then, without waiting for Durant to recover, there was a loud noise behind him.

Yu Jia opened his mouth wide and looked shocked: "Another dunk! Ibaka also ushered in his 5th foul of the game... Oh, the Thunder called for a timeout! "

Zhang Lili said with emotion: "I have to say that the No. 3 rookie of the Blazers does have a set. Although I don't know what he said, Durant was really provoked and even forgot to help defend."

Thunder bench.

"KD, what are you doing? You actually pay attention to a nobody, you..."

Scott Brooks airway didn't know what to say.

Don't you think it's cheap?

"I…"

Durant raised his head and quickly put it down again.

He can't always say that the boy on the opposite side is poisonous. The two seemed to have a grudge in their previous lives, and the first time they met Durant, they disliked each other.

"Then give the ball to KD," Scott Brooks said to the players, then turned to look at Durant: "To deal with such a kid, don't let everyone down!"

"clear!"

Durant nodded fiercely.

The atmosphere on the Blazers side is much more harmonious.

"Oh, mygod!" Matthews put his head in his hands, and said playfully, "You didn't see that when he was on the court just now, Bag Du's aggrieved and helpless expression, I always felt that he was about to cry the next moment. "

"Hey, Weiss, don't say it too much, the mother is still opposite... Haha!"

With that being said, Batum was the first to laugh out loud.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

All the team members also had a great time.

From the time he came back from the suspension, Trisdotts has been staring at Beverley, and secretly wondered in his heart: Is it wrong or wrong? Or does Wang know that Beverley's defense against Durant will do wonders.

Seeing that Beverley's back was gradually getting cold, he asked weakly, "Coach, yes, is there anything?"

"Oh, no! No," Terry Stotts waved his hand, and then encouraged: "Patrick, your performance is great, keep going!"

"Yes, coach!"

Beverley readily responded.

He secretly said: It seems that I don't have to be replaced so quickly, I can take a few more minutes...

…

After coming back.

At the request of Scott Brooks, Durant began to take the ball and storm Beverley to this point.

The Thunder did quickly enter the offensive rhythm under the leadership of Durant, but within two minutes of playing, people were surprised to find that when Durant faced Beverley's defense, his hit rate began to drop sharply.

At the 10th minute and 11th second, Durant hit Beverley with a single on the right-wing short corner. Wang Zelin received the rebound and assisted Matthews with a long pass for a layup.

The Blazers 102:100, completed the first go-ahead in the distal quarter.

At this point, with 2 minutes and 49 seconds remaining until the end of the game, Scott Brooks called another timeout.

"KD, how are you..."

Scott Brook petrochemical hasn't finished his training, and the next move makes his voice stop abruptly.

I saw Durant lift his jersey...

"hiss!"

Everyone gasped.

Looking around, Durant's back and abdomen are full of layers of red marks, and there are traces of scratches on his arms.

"NND, are you giving me an asshole?"

Westbrook's expression froze for a moment, and he roared angrily.

"KD, how is it? Can you still fight?"

Scott Brook asked the team doctor while asking.

"No problem, hiss!"

When Durant sat down, he pulled on the sore spot and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

At this moment, he is very clear that he can't leave the game no matter what, and if he only needs to do it, it is tantamount to the team's unilateral surrender.

"Sergi, get ready to play!"

Seeing that the time was still more than two minutes, Scott Brooks chose to give it a shot and put on Ibaka.

When the players from both sides returned to the court, fans found that the coaches of the two teams had each replaced the main force who had fouled 5 times on the court.

It seems to be a desperate fight!

Thunder attack.

Without any accident, it was Durant who stood up again and successfully equalized the score difference through individual singles.

102:102.

"Durant... God, he's in again! What's keeping him going..."

Seeing Durant's mid-range shot from about 7 feet stumble into the net bag, Hu Jia was emotional.

"This is the charm of superstars!" Zhang Lili said with emotion: "They can always do things that others can't, just like Kobe, they can always hit the magic ball... There is no doubt that in the field of scoring, Durant has reached the same level as Kobe Bryant's all-time super scorer!"

On the other side of the ocean, the fans of the Celestial Dynasty in front of the TV were also shown by Zhang Lei's operation.

All I can say is, as expected of you, Weiping Bryant, this can actually involve Kobe Bryant.

on the playing field.

"Shet!"

Batum, who had rested for half a quarter, watched Durant gasp for breath off the court, and he was still cheerful when he came on the court, thinking that the latter was just the time to be bullied... but he was slapped in the face.

In fact, Batum's judgment is very accurate. Durant's physical fitness has indeed come to the brink of collapse, but the reason why superstars are superstars and the reason why they can get so much salary is because "they are capable of what others can't bear, and what people can't bear. I can't bear it."

The body may have been unable to support Durant to fight, but his will was unexpectedly strong.

MMP!

Looking at Durant's kidney-deficiency appearance, he secretly said something in his heart: Insidious old guy, you still want to lie to me!

Trail Blazers attack.

This time, Perkins's entanglement was significantly larger, jumping back and forth on the edge of the foul, which also caused the referee beside him to twitch.

However, he never blew the whistle.

And what about Perkins?

As if it was officially recognized, the actions became more and more brutal, so that the dead man could never catch the ball.

No, Lillard, who was back on the court, wanted to pass the ball to Wang Zelin for the first time after dribbling the ball. Unfortunately, at this moment, Perkins and Wang Zelin were in various physical confrontations, and there was Ibaka who was eyeing him. Can't make room.

After waiting for a few seconds or waiting for a passing opportunity, Lillard did not hesitate, waved to Aldridge and asked for a pick-and-roll.

Since everyone has no chance, let me create opportunities!

At this moment, there was a burst of heat from Lillard's wrist:

It's time to watch the watch!

This is why Terry Stotts replaced Lillard: not to mention his defensive ability, Lillard's offensive talent and immediate combat power are always at the top 3 level in the team.

In the final analysis, at critical moments like this, only teams that emphasize defense first will choose to stubbornly defend. For the Blazers, one more point on the field will lead to one more point of hope of winning. It is an arrangement chosen by Terry Stotts in combination with the current tactics of the Blazers and the status of the players.

Besides, a superstar defense like Durant is never dead, and it's good to limit the opponent a little.

Moreover, the difference in strength between Beverley and Lillard is more than one grade. It is impossible for Terry Stotts to choose a substitute first instead of the main force.

"Bang!"

Aldridge successfully blocked Westbrook, who gritted his teeth and failed to rush over.

"squeak!"

Lillard changed direction and moved to the left wing three-point line.

"Don't think about it!"

Ibaka opened his arms and blocked the way.

Unexpectedly, Lillard didn't hesitate. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the screen, he stopped immediately after getting a short gap, and was ready to take the ball.

Ibaka took off immediately. The guy in front of him was the man who broke the three-pointer record in his rookie season. Even in his second year as a rookie, his three-pointer ability should not be underestimated.

However, when Ibaka jumped into the air, he found that there was nothing in front of him, and he was in a bad mood: "I was cheated!"

Before he had time to regret, Lillard aimed at the best time for Ibaka to start falling after reaching the highest point, and jumped up, with a clear leaning on his body...

Make a foul!

On the sidelines, Terry Stotts looked ecstatic, while on the other side, Scott Brooks looked gloomy.

Facts have proved that Mr. Lu Xun was right: "Even if it is the same thing, the joy of the people is not the same!"

"Snapped!"

The huge collision completely deformed Lillard's shooting posture, and the ball completely deviated from the track. Not to mention the strike, he was still two meters away from the rebound.

However, Lillard fell back contentedly.

as predicted.

next moment, beep~

Ibaka committed a shooting foul, and the audience was full of six fouls. The only thing waiting for him was to leave the court early.

"Oh, no!"

Suddenly there was a wailing from the stands.

"Damien, how are you?"

Aldridge hurried forward to pull Lillard up.

"Feeling great!"

Lillard got up and patted his **** to increase the volume, and the words reached Ibaka's ears.

The latter stared at Lillard coldly for a long time, until the referee blew another whistle, and he reluctantly left the court.

Strictly speaking, Ibaka is not as brainless as many black players, at least not as irritable as his teammate Perkins. He is more rational and plays very smart. The rough exterior is just an illusion. This guy has a delicate heart. It's on.

This can be drawn from the unanimous praise of many teammates who have partnered with him later.

Therefore, Ibaka, who was short-lived after the attack, did not make a big noise, but left the arena silently.

The big deal is to come back next time!

Afterwards, Lillard came to the free throw line, facing the boos of the Energy Arena, and finally made 3 of 3 free throws, the Blazers led by 3 points 105:102.

One of the benefits of an older rookie is once again manifested at a critical moment.

During Lillard's free throw, Scott Brooks also made timely lineup adjustments, which is quite intriguing:

Let Durant top the No. 4 position, and as for the No. 3 position, it was unexpectedly replaced by former All-Star small forward Caron Butler.

Born in 1980, the 33-year-old Caron Butler has long lost the All-Star style of the past. After all, not every player can have the long peak period unique to superstars such as Kobe, Duncan and Nowitzki.

Today's Caron Butler, the championship dream has been fulfilled in the Mavericks, although he himself said in an interview that he will have a better chance of winning the championship in the Thunder. However, in the eyes of outsiders, the reason for him to stay in the league may be his love of basketball.

To be honest, Scott Bricks replaced Caron Butler with this change, whether it was Terry Stotts or Wang Zelin and others on the court, they couldn't figure it out at first.

until…

"Shh!"

Caron Butler came up and ran without the ball. After running back and pulling away from Matthews from the bottom line, he hit the first goal of the game, and it was a three-pointer.

In an instant, at 105:105, the Thunder tied the score.

It seems that Caron Butler not only loves, but also has a lot of oil in his fuel tank.

beep~

Caron Butler's critical three-pointer caught Terry Stotts by surprise, and called a timeout in time, and he had to rearrange his strategy on the field.

At this point, there are still 1 minute and 33 seconds before the end of the game.

The level of anxiety in the game exceeded the expectations of the audience in the stands and the fans in front of the TV. Many people did not dare to go to the toilet even during the pause, and kept urinating and urinating.

After all, history has proved that, such as the Miller moment, the McGrady moment... and the lore moments of many stars, they missed it gorgeously with a soak of S or a soak of urine.

Some old fans have even smelled the breath of lore.

"Go Nicholas, come on Patrick, you go and entangle Caron Butler for me, I don't want to see any more vacancies for him... Can you do it?"

The stickiness that Beverley showed before was seen by the coaching staff, so Christopher quickly derived his new arrangement.

"Yes! I can do it, sir!"

Beverley instantly ejected from his seat and roared like a military order.

God see it with pity!

After being replaced just now, he never thought that he would have the opportunity to play. He still knows how much he has: he is far from Lillard Derby!

Unexpectedly, he got another chance to play in the last minute and a half, and he played the 3 position again.

Batum didn't say anything, just patted Beverley on the shoulder, and then returned to his position.

Are you unhappy?

There must be. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

What about the gap?

There are also.

However, Batum is also very aware of his situation at this time. He is only 1 foul away from 6 fouls. He has played a little too timid in these rounds, and his 10-point defensive ability is now at best. 7 points.

Instead, let Beverley play without foul problems. Moreover, Beverley's defensive skills displayed during this period, whether it is single defense or help defense, have been unanimously recognized by the coaching staff and all teammates.

Everyone underestimated this black and thin guy.

After figuring it out, Batum's depressed mood quickly rose, but he looked forward to Beverley's next performance, and secretly said: Patrick's defense is trustworthy, but I don't know, how is his psychological resistance at critical moments?

Before he could think too much, beep ~ the whistle sounded...

The decisive moment has come!
