The King of the NBA

On November 1, the Timberwolves sit at home and usher in a game against the Thunder.

This game has attracted much attention from the outside world. The 2013 Thunder team is in full swing, and the Timberwolves are also in high spirits this year. With the unexpected joy of Ning Yi, there is no reason for people not to look forward to it.

The only thing that worries people is that Westbrook may be out today.

For this game, some foreign sports media have live broadcasts. China's Penguin Sports, Sports Wutai, and Xinlang Sports also have live broadcasts. It is obvious that they attach great importance to this game.

The live commentary of Sports Five is Zhang Weiping and Su Qun. The two are very familiar commentators to the fans. They have partnered with each other many times. They are very familiar and the atmosphere is relaxed.

At this time, the Thunder players had arrived on the screen. Seeing Westbrook wearing a suit, Zhang Weiping said: "We can see that Westbrook is wearing a suit today. There were rumors before the game that he would have a truce today. Now it seems to be a fact. Then Durant is left to play the role alone."

"This reminds me of Harden." Su Qun said: "If Harden hadn't left, then Thunderbolt would have been really powerful. When the three of them were together, the blood of the people watching was boiling."

"Now there is Reggie." Zhang Weiping said.

Su Qun laughed and nodded, "Yes, Harden is gone, but Reggie is still there. And the Thunder's two rookies this year, Steven Adams and Andre Robertson, are not bad either."

Zhang Weiping said: "When it comes to rookies, it depends on Ning Yi. He is the most outstanding rookie this year. He averaged nearly 17 points per game in the preseason. He also scored 17 points in the last game against the Magic."

"Awesome." Su Qun said: "I have been paying attention to Ning Yi from the very beginning. I was still worried about whether he could get a contract, but I didn't expect not only to get it, but also a contract of 2.6 million US dollars a year. The contract has caught up with the lottery rookie. And I heard that the Timberwolves originally planned to give him a 2+1 contract, but he rejected it."

At the beginning, Ning Yi rejected the Timberwolves' 2+1 contract and insisted on signing it for only one year, which caused a lot of heated discussions.

Originally, some people thought that Ning Yi was ignorant of good and evil, and lashed out at Ning Yi, but who knew that Ning Yi's popularity not only did not decrease, but instead soared again, he was sought after by many young people and became their idol, just because Ning Yi refused Timberwolves. In the eyes of young people, this is a kind of self-confidence and a kind of courage.

Young people need this.

"Hehe." Zhang Weiping smiled and said: "So, any success is not accidental. Ning Yi's ability to achieve such results is inseparable from his self-confidence. Many of our Huaxia players lack this kind of Confidence, the lack of this kind of spirit of daring to fight and take risks. But without this, you can't integrate into the NBA."

This is the truth, Su Qun nodded, but didn't answer the question.

This question is very complicated, and the reasons are varied. It has something to do with style, people, talent, strength, and even culture.

Su Qun is not as qualified as Zhang Weiping, so he is not good at commenting on these things, so he changed the subject: "Director Zhang, do you think Ning Yi can continue the performance of the previous game today? How many points do you think he can get?"

"Well." Zhang Weiping thought for a while, and said: "I think it depends on Ning Yi's state and the opponent's defense. Ning Yi scored 17 points in the last game, which is a signal, reminding the Thunder team, let They should not underestimate Ning Yi. So I think the Thunder's defense against Ning Yi will definitely be more targeted than the Magic's."

"Under such circumstances, it's hard to say what performance Ning Yi can perform and how many points he can get." Zhang Weiping's eyes are vicious, and he hit the nail on the head.

The fact is indeed the case, the Thunder will not let Ning Yi go, and have tactics against him.

Of course, the Thunder won't know that Ning Yi is different today than two days ago, and the tactics originally aimed at him may not be effective.

At this time, the Timberwolves players also appeared on the field. After the players from both sides warmed up, the game was about to begin. Zhang Weiping and Su Qun stopped talking and began to explain the game.

Target Center, Minnesota.

The Timberwolves launched an offense here. Pekovi, Love, Brewer, Martin, and Rubio started the field. Rubio advanced with the ball and soon reached the frontcourt. In a flash, Reggie Jackson rushed over, lowered his center of gravity, opened his hands, stared at Rubio coldly, with a sharp look on his face.

Today's Thunder's starters are Kendrick Perkins, Serge Ibaka, Kevin Durant, Sabo Sofroz, and Reggie Jackson.

Reggie started the game today, obviously very serious. He defended very oppressively at the beginning, which made Rubio frown. He didn't stick the ball too much and quickly passed it to Martin.

At this time, Brewer and Love crossed positions, Love attracted the defender, Martin passed the ball to Brewer, Brewer took the ball and it was a breakthrough, and then passed the ball out again and returned it to Martin.

Martin made a mid-range shot.

boom!

Hitting the iron, the Thunder took the rebound and launched a counterattack.

As soon as he reached the front court, the ball was given to Durant. Durant faced Brewer decisively in singles, backed Brewer twice, and then suddenly took a step back and shot.

Swish!

With a soft sound, the ball goes in.

This is Durant, the three-time scoring champion. Scoring has become an instinct for him. If he wants to, there will always be a way to make the defender helpless and sigh.

Looking at Durant, Ning Yi's heart was churning: "There is still a big gap between me and him now, but I believe that with the passage of time, I will narrow this gap until I surpass him."

This is an ambition and a pursuit.

But for ordinary people, it may be said that this is a luxury, so Ning Yi will not say it, he just mutters silently in his heart, urging himself to keep moving forward.

On the court, the two sides come and go, the fight is not too intense, but neither of them is willing to relax. Whenever one side scores a goal, the other side tries to return one.

Especially Love and Durant, as the core of the team, although they are not directly facing each other, the competition is everywhere. Both of them played very well and were particularly dazzling.

When the first quarter passed 6 minutes, the Timberwolves led by 4 points.

At this time, the Thunder called a timeout.

On the Timberwolves side, Adelman made a substitution: "Ning, you go up and replace Brewer. And Dion, you go up too and replace Pekovic. Ning, your task is to shoot and score." As for There is no need to tell Dieng, scoring is not Dieng's strong point, defense and rebounding are his tasks.

Ning Yi got up and walked onto the court.

Seeing Ning Yi play, Thunder coach Scott Brooks squinted his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, showed a sneer, and gestured to the Thunder players, meaning: "Fight according to my arrangement, prevent death rather Yi."
