Super Heavy Artillery
Vol 3 Chapter 173: Opener
After the week-long preseason, the entire NBA entered a short offseason. Although there was no competition, everyone did not stop. All teams are busy making final adjustments to their lineup. The regular season is about to begin.
As the boss of the team, Westbrook held a party in his home. The people invited are all players who will stay with the Thunder early this season. Of course, there must be some pretty blonde girls, after all, just a bunch of rough guys are really boring.
Anlo and Grant shuttled on the dance floor with Diallo. This guy was selected by the Thunder in the draft this summer. It looks a little shy, but the talent is good. Especially the bounce is great! An Luo likes to watch his dunks the most.
Westbrook and Paul George were holding wine glasses and smoking cigars, chatting happily, looking like brothers.
The whole party was full of fun. It seems that the Thunder's locker room will not be affected by the changes in the summer personnel. Think about it, too. Oladipo and Sabonis, who left, have only been in Oklahoma for one season. How deep can they be?
After the carnival, it's time to do business. Donovan took the players to the final run in response to the problems in the preseason.
Through several actual preseason games, Donovan felt that his burden was still heavy! Although they have achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss, these three guys are still doing it alone. Especially Westbrook, he is actually working very hard to adapt to the new system and change his style of play, but the situation in the three games was not ideal. This is also the biggest headache for Donovan. How to make Westbrook, Paul George and Anlo have a good chemical reaction in the team's system and give full play to their abilities is a problem he needs to solve urgently.
However, for the players, the feeling is still very good. After a long offseason, the team's soaring strength made everyone full of confidence. Therefore, everyone is eager to try. But it wasn't until the third game day of the regular season that the Thunder made their debut in the new season.
On the evening of October 19, 2017, the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City once again turned into a jubilant blue ocean.
It can be seen that not only the players are eager to try, but the fans are the same. The Thunder last season was successful. However, it is still quite regrettable to lose the halberd in the Western Conference semifinals. The fans' calls for reinforcement didn't stop until the deal came to Paul George.
Now that the regular season has finally started, how can we not get excited! After all, this season's Thunder is hopeful that they will rush out of the West and compete for the championship.
As Westbrook rushed into the court with his teammates, Chesapeake Energy Arena once again sounded the slogan that people feel so familiar with today:
"O~K~C!"
"O~K~C!"
...
Nearly 20,000 people are uniform, and the momentum is really shocking. In such an environment, An Luo is always excited. He felt that the cells in his whole body were jubilant, and he wanted to make a dunk right away.
Before the game began, Westbrook gathered his teammates together. He is also very excited!
"Guys! Did you hear that? These are the best fans in the world! We have to win this game for them! For OKC!"
"For OKC!"
...
In China, more fans are paying attention to this game. Anluo conquered countless hometown fans with his outstanding performance in the Asian Cup. Make everyone pay more attention to him. Of course, not all came to see An Luo. Westbrook and Paul George have many fans.
"The starting roster for both sides has come out. The Knicks sent Sessions, Hardaway, Courtney Lee, Porzingis and O'Queen..."
"This set of starting, defense is a problem! Courtney Lee can defend, but he can only defend the first and second positions, but he played in the third position, facing Paul George is really choking. Hardaway couldn't prevent Anlow, and Sessions at the number one had nothing to do with Westbrook. There was no loss at the number four, but Robertson was not particularly important on the offensive end. In general, the Knicks lineup The defense is really a sweat!"
"The Thunder's starting lineup is almost the same as when they played in the preseason~www.wuxiaspot.com~Westbrook, Anlow, Paul George, Robertson and Adams. This lineup is very good, both offensive and defensive. If it's the number four If Robertson’s basket is more accurate, apart from the Warriors, I’m afraid there will be no team that the Thunder can see."
"It's true! But Robertson's defense is still inseparable from the Thunder..."
"Alright! Let's watch the game..."
Porzingis assigned the ball to Sessions. An Luo was taken aback, this guy actually looked half a head taller than Adams!
But the Knicks' offense was very difficult!
Donovan continued to carry forward the unlimited defense tactics of last season. With the exception of Adams guarding at the basket, positions one to four all threw out. When the Knicks faced these four guys, there was no single point that could play one-on-one, so they were totally unsure.
After a few passes, Hardaway forced a shot outside the right three-point line and made a three-pointer.
Change the Thunder offense. Westbrook advances with the ball and takes a quick breakthrough from the left. Robertson made a pick-and-roll close to the bottom corner. As Westbrook rushed in, Paul George slipped straight to the bottom corner. The coordination of the three people was very good. After Westbrook attracted the defense and passed back, Paul George took the ball and shot.
"Oh, what a pity! Paul George's position is very good for this ball, Robertson blocked well, and Westbrook passed it well. It's a shame not to score!"
"Westbrook got a rebound! Good guy! What a high jump! Does he want to play himself? His ability to score at the basket is pretty good."
After the goal, there was a burst of fierce cheers from the audience. Westbrook was also very happy, and ran over and patted An Luo on the head.
