NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

"The beginning of the NBA draws the twilight O'Neal (

"The core players of the Thunder are not much older than us, but they were able to enter the finals last year. They will be our goals for a long time in the future..."

"To be honest, it's beyond my expectations to be able to hit this level, but what I want to say is that since we have reached this stage, why do we no longer fight to keep the victory in the rose garden."

"Guys, the time for real blood is coming..."

On the bench, all the players surrounded Coach Terry in a circle, listening to his lectures.

As for the tactics, they have all been fought up to now, and the two teams are fighting against each other between the stars.

Although Coach Terry also formulated corresponding tactics for the team on the training ground, he also gave the players a lot of freedom to play.

Because he knows a truth: the real players are always the players on the court, and all he can do is guide!

Playing against a strong team like the Thunder can make potential newcomers like Wang Zelin and Lillard grow extremely fast, and it can also allow a young team like the Blazers to accumulate experience in dealing with strong teams.

There is a lot of experience that must be accumulated quickly in the competition.

Before this game started, to be honest, not many people thought that the Blazers would be the opponent of the Thunder, although the former is currently 5 wins and 5 games in the regular season, and the latter is 4 wins and 1 loss.

But the Thunder lost the game against the San Antonio Spurs, the top team in the league. The Thunder were beaten by Parker in the opening game, and they lost only two points.

The Thunder, who knew shame and courage, faced the Mosaic, the Mavericks, the Clippers and the Nets in the next four games and won all of them.

When everyone thought that the Blazers would be the turtle in the urn, when the game really came, the Thunder realized that what they had caught was not a turtle, but a hidden dragon.

The crucial fourth quarter has finally started. At this moment, the starter must be on the court, and the rotation players can only wave the towel off the court.

According to Coach Terry's arrangement, the team will focus on the inside line first, because Wang Zelin has a strong inside line advantage compared to the Blazers and the Thunder.

Ibaka's athletic ability is excellent, and his blocking skills are outstanding, but compared to Wang Zelin, who is 2.16 meters tall and weighs 130 kilograms, his deterrent effect in the low post is still not as good. Fear the Thunder inside.

Therefore, the inside line is undoubtedly the most certain point for the Blazers.

Wang Zelin is also very upbeat and has lived up to the trust of the coach and teammates.

In the first offensive round, he took advantage of his wingspan to double-team the two and put the ball into the basket and caused Ibaka's second foul of the game.

With a little tweaking, he made a solid 2+1 with 86 free throws.

"Sergey, you're not very good as a cap king. It's too soft."

Looking at Ibaka who was walking with him when he was retreating, Wang Zelin began to tease him.

Trash talk is a major feature of the NBA. A good trash talker can bring a lot of pressure to opponents and even affect their performance.

But obviously, Wang Zelin's skills are still shallow, Ibaka didn't ignore him at all, and ran to the front court.

The Thunder's offense is much simpler than that of the Blazers, pulling it straight away, leaving the space for Durant to play singles.

At times like these, it's the best tactic to give the ball to the person with the most confidence.

After receiving the ball, Durant turned sideways to face Batum.

After a few feints in a row, seeing that Batum was still as steady as a rock, he quickly turned around and slipped in.

Batum quickly followed, but Durant made a sudden stop, jumped near the paint area, and hit the shot.

Players who can combine the shot well are the hardest to guard.

After seeing Durant scoring easily, Batum clapped his palm in annoyance.

"Okay man, you have to be thankful that Durant guy isn't that good at talking trash, or you'll be even sadder."

Wang Zelin came over and touched Batum's head, reminding him kindly.

Are you so comforting?

Batum glanced at Wang Zelin and didn't answer, he was afraid that he would be **** off by this teammate.

Relying on Durant's precise strikes, the Thunder took the lead to one point.

After Wang Zelin sent the baseline ball, he quickly returned to his offensive position.

At the moment when he leaned against Perkins in the low position, Wang Zelin took advantage of the situation to use his shoulders to knock him out of balance, and directly opened his hand to ask for the ball.

After catching the ball, Wang Zelin jumped to the basket, stuck his **** back to block Ibaka, and then jumped up and dunked the ball into the basket.

"What kind of look are you looking at? Are you unconvinced? It's just right. If you have the ability, stop me in the next round."

Wang Zelin saw Perkins' sharp eyes and didn't take it seriously.

NBA is a battlefield, the winner is the king, the loser is the loser, as long as the referee's whistle does not sound, it is a good shot.

Two consecutive storms succeeded in the basket, so that the morale of the pioneers began to rise.

What if there is a runner-up team on the opposite side, they are also not bad.

In the next offense, the Thunder continued to use their usual tactics: Dewey mixed doubles.

In the 6th minute of the 4th quarter, because the two sides never called a timeout, it came directly to the official timeout.

Before the timeout, the score between the Blazers and the Thunder was 87:85. Lillard made a three-pointer at the buzzer at the last minute to help the Blazers overtake the Thunder by a three-pointer.

In the first half, the Thunder scored 11 points.

The Blazers had 13 points.

You have Dewey, I have San Shao!

Although the personal ability of Wang Zhuang's combination overwhelmed the Blazers' three little ones.

But basketball isn't all about singles.

The Thunder's individual offense is very strong, but the Blazers' team offense is better than the other.

In the past half-quarter, Wang Zelin scored 8 points, 8 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 foul~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Not only did he rebound a career-high 25, but his points also rose rapidly.

In addition, the hard work on the defensive end also allowed Wang Zelin to send his fourth foul of the game.

In order to win the game, Wang Zelin not only has to play a deterrent on the offensive end, but also takes into account the attacking frames of Westbrook and Durant from time to time.

Attacking and defending twice caused Wang Zelin's physical loss to exceed his usual consumption rate.

During the suspension, Wang Zelin not only had weak legs, but also gasped for breath, and the entire jersey was wet with sweat.

During a highly concentrated game on the court, Wang Zelin did not have such a strong sense of load, but after the rest, the various negative effects of his body were reflected.

Fortunately, Durant on the opposite side is in better condition than Wang Zelin, but not much better.

Insufficient physical strength is also a major problem that has always interfered with Durant.

Unsurprisingly, Durant is sure to rest for a few minutes next to prepare for the final moments, and now the Blazers are looking for a emaciated guard with a big smile on his face.

In the deal between the Thunder and Mosaic in October, Mosaic's biggest bargaining chip was Kevin Martin.

A man who swaps Harden!

A crooked machine gun that can stably contribute 20+ output per game.

At this time, Kevin Martin is the sixth man of the Thunder, and he is also one of the representatives of the NBA's offensive and defensive players.

In the peak season, he averaged 24.6 points per game, and he has a stable output of about 20 points per game all year round. He has a weird shot, which makes many players remember this thin shooting guard.

Until now, although Kevin Martin has only scored 6 points and 3 assists, the Blazers still regard it as a serious problem and dare not relax.
