The opening three-pointer in basketball

During the halftime break, in the home team's lounge, Bai Yi returned to the lounge, then took a towel and covered his head.

He used a completely different method today than before. He was like an old fried dough stick, constantly saying some unnutritious words to stimulate Westbrook.

He felt okay, and even felt a little excited in his heart, as if he was addicted.

He seemed to want to continue his output in the second half.

He was even a little anxious.

Such a mentality is not good and people cannot be controlled by their emotions.

Westbrook was controlled by his own emotions, which is a counterexample.

"Bai, what did you say to Westbrook just now? Have you been talking trash?"

Tucker came over. As an old-school defensive player, Tucker has been improving his defensive level, including trash talk.

He just saw that Bai Yi had been talking to Westbrook, although Westbrook didn't respond much.

But Westbrook's repetitive attitude is that sometimes he shoots and sometimes he doesn't.

It should all be attributed to Bai Yi.

"Said something."

Bai Yi took off the towel. He was a little excited, but he quickly came to his senses. He should not be controlled by his emotions. He took off the towel and took a deep breath.

"Oh, what did you say?"

Bai Yi smiled and said, "Some words to stimulate him to take action. I feel that Westbrook is not in good condition today. Instead of passing the ball, it is better to let him take action by himself."

Tucker nodded with deep understanding, "You're right, this is a defensive option. Bai, you are too smart. No rookie is as smart as you. If I was like you, I wouldn't have to go to Europe.

"

Bai Yi didn't answer, nodded, then took the towel and covered his head again.

Just like what he has been telling himself, don't be impulsive and don't be influenced by emotions.

Whether it is this matter or something else, whether it is a good mood or a bad mood, he should calm down.

He covered himself with a towel to calm down, and then thought about the second half of the game. He would be full of energy in the second half.

The restrictions on Westbrook or Harden will still continue.

Especially Westbrook. As the son of the Thunder, Brooks had already let Westbrook rest for a while in the first quarter. It was impossible for him to let Westbrook continue to rest in the next game.

As long as you continue to stimulate Westbrook, Westbrook will definitely come back.

This will further reduce Durant's ball rights, which will inevitably make Adu more irritable, and may even affect Adu's feel.

He thought about it and still felt that Durant was too stable.

To beat the Thunder's three young men in scoring, he should have more considerations.

He then pulled off the towel and came to Tucker.

"Man, how did it feel when you faced Durant?"

"He is very stable. Unless two people double-team him, it will be difficult for us to restrict him."

Bai Yi's eyes lit up, and he thought of something, "Why don't you let Reggie and you double-team Durant later, and I will restrict Westbrook, so that two of the Thunder's three young men will not be able to score easily, and only Harden is the only one."

, he can’t make any big waves.”

Tucker thought about it and thought this method was good. The two then found Adelman and explained their ideas.

Adelman spread his hands and said, "Your idea is great, I think it's okay."

…

The atmosphere in the visiting team's lounge was a bit dull. Adu held the mineral water bottle in his right hand and glanced at the others.

When passing by Westbrook and Brooks, he obviously paused.

For him, if Westbrook hadn't been messing around in the first half, they wouldn't have been so far behind.

This is the Western Conference Finals, not an ordinary game.

This kind of competition is not serious, it really should be struck by lightning.

Harden was not in a very high mood. He felt that he was in very good condition. He didn't understand why Brooks had to replace him. Would it be useful to replace him with Westbrook?

It's no use.

This kind of game can be said to attract global attention. Harden wanted more playing time, but it seemed that Brooks couldn't understand it. He only let him play for a while and then replaced him.

Two of the Big Three looked gloomy.

The atmosphere in this locker room can be imagined.

Brooks was also embarrassed and felt uncomfortable.

But he still dared not say anything more about Westbrook.

After all, Westbrook is the son of the club. If he dares to beep Westbrook, he might leave the team roster in the next game.

The Thunder took over the club from the Seattle SuperSonics. The Thunder's executives dreamed of developing their own flag players, and they set their sights on Westbrook.

So even if the team has players with historical talent like Durant, they still pay more attention to Westbrook.

But we must reason with Westbrook, otherwise the game will not be played at all.

Since Westbrook doesn't feel good, he can just pass the ball honestly, or break through and rush to the frame. Anyway, don't shoot. Continuous shooting is really harmful to the team.

Brooks then called Westbrook aside and said earnestly: "Man, you are much more careless today than before. Is it because of Bai's stimulation?"

Westbrook thought of Bai Yi's bet before the game, and he knew he would definitely lose that bet.

Then he thought of Bai Yi's words during the game. Those words really made him even more excited, and even a little bit out of his mind.

Later he went to shoot a basketball, but he was stimulated by Bai Yi.

"Yes, that boy used some words to stimulate me."

"Oh, let me just say, you are much more impulsive today than before."

Brooks only goes so far.

Westbrook was embarrassed himself and answered the question hurriedly.

"Coach, it's my problem. I promise not to mess around in the second half."

Brooks nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, I believe you."

Regardless of whether Westbrook's guarantee is true or whether it can be achieved, the youngster's attitude is right.

Brooks thinks this is where Westbrook is better than Durant.

Durant is a guy who always speaks in a shady manner, as if someone owes him money.

Westbrook watched Brooks leave. In fact, he was not sure what others thought, but he could feel that his teammates were dissatisfied with him at this time, and he could not let the coach also be dissatisfied with him.

Although he looks reckless, he is not really a fool.

Coaching players always needs someone to support them.

But the way we played in the second half?

He was a little depressed. He actually didn't shoot much in the first half, that is, at the beginning of the first quarter, and he wasted a lot in the last three minutes of the second quarter.

He feels that as a son of the club, he should have this right.

But now it seems that this right cannot be guaranteed.

Westbrook was very unhappy. He felt it was because Durant and Harden were jealous of him.

He turned his head and glanced at Durant and Harden, and found that the two men still had dark faces at this time.

Westbrook was even more unhappy. He planned to ignore Bai Yi in the second half and perform well to convince these two people.
