NBA: Starting with James Harden
Chapter 67
............
45 to 55.
The Thunder called a timeout again.
Brooks was sweating profusely at this time. Carlisle's tactics were completely different from the previous games between the two teams.
This made him feel heavy pressure.
Compared to Brooks's panic, Carlisle seemed very calm. He couldn't help but be calm when he was leading by 10 points.
"Li, do you need to come down and rest?"Carlisle asked Li Zhen in an inquiring tone.
"No, no, I don't need to rest." Li Zhen wiped his sweat with a towel.
For Li Zhen, his physical fitness will not be a big problem. He should use this time to stay on the court and expand his advantage as much as possible.
Harden's physical talent brings good physical fitness. Even if he plays a full 48 minutes, Li Zhen can still maintain a good touch.
Of course, in order to maintain his physical fitness, he can't always use all his strength on both offense and defense at the same time. He must learn to exert force skillfully.
""Okay, then everything is up to you, just go for it." Carlisle said.
Carlisle patted Li Zhen on the back as encouragement.
Li Zhen has not come off the court since he came off the bench in the first quarter. The team has always had a leading advantage under his leadership. Carlisle has no reason to say too much.
On the Thunder side, Harden, Westbrook, Durant, Jeff Green, and Ibaka formed their scoring lineup in the second quarter.
For Brooks, arranging this lineup is already a risk-taking.
If they can't defend Li Zhen, then the Mavericks can't defend them.
The Thunder's lineup is full of talent. The Mavericks only have Li Zhen's physical talent that can be compared with one of them, and the other positions are not as good as them.
Li Zhen himself did not expect such a day to come.
The three youngsters of the Thunder came on the court just to deal with him, which made him feel a little helpless...
The first attack of the Thunder's talented lineup.
Durant received Westbrook's breakthrough pass, dribbled the ball and took a step sideways, then collected the ball and made a jump shot!!
A very unsolvable talent.
""Swish!"
48 to 55.
The cheers of the Airline Arena were somewhat silenced by Durant's shot.
Li Zhen also shook his head as he watched. It was really amazing. Marion clearly knew how Durant was going to attack, but he just couldn't defend Durant.
Li Zhen was not discouraged. He immediately called on Marion to serve the ball. After receiving the ball, he immediately accelerated!
Before the Thunder's defense was fully in place, Li Zhen rushed to the three-point line on the right side of the Thunder.
This speed caught the Thunder off guard. You know, Li Zhen has always dribbled slowly.
Harden and Ibaka double-teamed Li Zhen at the same time, and the Thunder's perimeter defense had a loophole.
Li Zhen turned around to protect the ball, and then passed the ball directly to the middle.
There was no one at this position at first, but when Li Zhen got the ball, Haywood arrived.
The middle was empty, and Haywood took a step and took off!!
His purpose looked like he was going directly to the basket.
But another figure came faster!!
"Bang!"
Haywood's one-handed slam dunk was blocked by Westbrook who flew over from the other side.
Haywood was also pushed to the ground by Westbrook. Li Zhen felt pain just watching.
The fans at the scene also gasped. A point guard blocked our center's dunk?
Westbrook roared to the sky, and then he kicked Li Zhen!!!
Westbrook didn't even look at Haywood. There was only Li Zhen in his eyes.
Harden and Ibaka went over to celebrate with Westbrook and shook hands. Westbrook took the blame for their missed player. Li Zhen wiped the sweat from his forehead. Haywood obviously started the ball first, but Westbrook relied on his physical talent to show extreme explosive power and blocked Haywood's dunk that was sure to go in!!
Li Zhen went over and pulled Haywood up.
Haywood said to Li Zhen with a little guilt:"Li, that guard jumped too high. Oh, I didn't expect it."
Being blocked by the guard made Haywood feel a little ashamed.
"Well, it's okay, that guy is so perverted, you should be careful."Li Zhen nodded.
Haywood's block forced Li Zhen to think about reducing the number of passes to him.
Facing the current Thunder's talented players, Haywood's passes may not be eaten. The ball was served again. Li Zhen received the ball and leaned over to test the ball. Westbrook quickly came over. Westbrook had just completed a stunning block, and he seemed very excited.
Westbrook's defense was a bit clumsy. Li Zhen did not hesitate to hang on Westbrook's arm, and then shot for a three-pointer!!!
Westbrook looked at Li Zhen in disbelief
"Fak, this can be a foul?"
""Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle.
The fans at the scene cheered.
Their rookie's shameful foul-making skills began to show their power again.
Haywood came over and high-fived Li Zhen excitedly:"Li, well done, thank you."
Haywood was still thinking about the block just now by Westbrook, but he didn't expect that Li Zhen would help him get it back immediately.
Westbrook said to Li Zhen unhappily:"Li, your playing style is really annoying."
Li Zhen shrugged:"Your talent is also annoying!"
Li Zhen had no choice. How could he play against them without relying on his brain?
Compared to Westbrook's indignation, Harden's eyes lit up. He watched the whole scene of how Li Zhen made Westbrook foul. Harden stood there thoughtfully and kept looking up at the replay.
Watching Li Zhen's video is far less intense than experiencing it in person.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for helping James Harden upgrade his skills, and getting the title of"Master of Jingdezhen", and being rewarded with 10 attribute points."
Fuck!
Harden is now my opponent, and I am helping him upgrade?
Li Zhen stood on the free throw line with a face full of resentment.
Showing the foul-making technique in front of Harden is clearly to guide him to improve.
Li Zhen accepted the improvement of 10 attribute points with tears in his eyes.
Master of Jingdezhen, Master!
"Swish!"
"frame!"
""Swish!"
Li Zhen also missed one of his three free throws.
48 to 57.
Thunder attack.
Harden dribbled across half court and raised his hand to play one-on-one.
Westbrook and Durant were puzzled, but they still pulled away from him.
Harden asked Ibaka to set a screen.
After the pick-and-roll, Haywood and Terry switched defense.
Harden frequently hit the ground with his crotch.
Haywood raised his hand and walked over.
Harden hung on Haywood's arm exactly like Li Zhen.
Haywood was speechless.....
If you want to take revenge on Li Zhen, why would you want to make trouble for him?
""Beep!!"
The referee did not show favoritism and called a foul on Haywood, shaking three fingers at the same time.
Li Zhen's face darkened.
Haywood also shook his head speechlessly. Li Zhen's move was too cheap.
The fans in the Airline Arena booed.
Harden's fouls made them feel very difficult.
What to do? The opponent also has such a cheap guy.
Li Zhen looked at Harden who was shooting free throws, thinking.
To be honest, he did not reject this kind of battle with the three young masters, because if he played like this, the Thunder's greatest advantage would not be brought into play.
Harden stood on the free throw line and made two of three free throws!!
50 to 57.
Under Li Zhen's deliberate provocation, the second half of the second quarter became a good show of Li Zhen and the third young player to draw fouls.
Harden's practical ability is very strong. After he understood the foul, he has been using it frequently against the Mavericks players.
Whenever Harden drew a foul, Li Zhen would fight back.
Later, Durant also became smart and played like this.
Westbrook did the same. He rushed to draw fouls as soon as he got the ball.
In the last 4 minutes of the first half, the two teams played for half an hour.....
65 to 72.
At the end of the first half, the Mavericks entered the locker room with a 7-point lead!
"I have to say, it was an ugly game in the second half of the first half."Barkley couldn't help but complain.
"Haha, they are all very talented. If they really want to commit a foul, the defenders really don't have much to do. I think they should stop fighting in the second half, and the referee won't let them go on like this."Smith said
"No matter what, the Mavericks successfully maintained their advantage in the first half, while the Thunder did not play out their advantage, but instead fell into a long and endless struggle with Li Zhen."Barkley said.
Indeed, as Barkley said, the Thunder gave up their advantage to fight with the Mavericks.
The Thunder's advantage lies in their transition offense.
As long as they speed up, the Mavericks will definitely not be able to keep up.
The current rhythm of grinding the field is the rhythm that the Mavericks like!
Data in the first half.
Li Zhen scored 33 points, 10 assists and 7 rebounds, and his data is unique.
On the Thunder side, Durant scored 22 points, Westbrook scored 18 points, and Harden scored 12 points.
