MTL - Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife-Chapter 64 or maybe none 1
It was the SuperSonics' turn to attack again. Kevin Durant followed suit, started slowly, and suddenly moved to the high post. When he received the ball, he raised his hand to shoot with little adjustment.
Li Wan went up very fast, not giving him any room to shoot at all.
When Kevin Durant saw this, he drew a "semi-circle" with both hands on his chest, and the "three-threat" posture "threatened" the ball-holding space, and rushed past Li Wan with a big stride.
Li Wan couldn't stop his breakthrough, and took a symbolic hand from behind. Kevin Durant paid attention to details. Out of the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of his hand, quickly closed the ball, and avoided Li Wan's claws. He needs to be transported again, as long as he takes two steps forward, he can shoot directly at the basket.
No way, the height of 2 meters 11 can do whatever he wants.
It's just that he just closed the ball and looked forward, only to find that his and Odom's faces are already less than the length of two palms.
"Bah!"
Inevitably, the two collided.
The referee blew the whistle for the first time, and Odom stood firmly outside the reasonable collision zone line, so it was an offensive foul by Kevin Durant.
The number of fouls by the two teams has accumulated to the fifth time. Odom, pulled by Li Wan and Fisher, stood up with a smile on his face and gave Li Wan another high five.
Fisher: ? ? ?
Kevin Durant frowned. An offensive foul, he wasn't worried. His worry was that if Odom knew in advance that he would be driving the ball at that point, that would be the worst thing to do.
That means the Lakers have seen through his path.
But when Kobe defended him just now, the Lakers did not arrange such a supplementary defense.
All these changes came after Li Wan came on the court, which means...
Kevin Durant thought of the last round again at this time. Li Wan got stuck in advance several times to prevent him from successfully receiving the ball at a high position.
Could it be that his strategy of holding the ball at a high position was seen through by him?
Lamar Odom made two free throws, the difference came to 5 points.
Kevin Durant walked quietly to the frontcourt, and when Earl Watson passed halftime, when he moved as usual, he paid special attention to Li Wan behind him. With the long two-point area moving, the Chinese rookie always observes the position of the ball for the first time, obviously judging the path of the ball and trying to destroy his catch.
It does seem to have studied my catching habits!
Kevin Durant is completely determined now.
He immediately changed the rhythm of running without the ball. First he casually pretended to stop, and then suddenly took a step to the right three-point line, caught the ball and shot, much faster than usual.
Li Wan failed to catch up with the ball, but Kevin Durant shot too hastily, and the ball slammed into the basket with a bang, "making iron".
"Second Place, don't worry, the more you worry, the more you can't get in!"
After defending the next three times in a row, Li Wan opened his mouth to stimulate Kevin Durant.
He didn't forget that this guy's eyes were provocative before the game.
"If I were your coach, you'd be sitting on the bench now!"
Kevin Durant was powerless to fight back.
Li Wan still refuses to let him go: "What's the matter? Are you going to save the words for tweeting after the game?"
Kevin Durant almost stumbled, but he already did. In the conversation about him and Li Wan, he said a lot for himself. It's just a small one.
On the Lakers side, Kobe scored with the ball. With Watson missing a three-pointer from a long distance, the first quarter of the game ended.
Phil Jackson stood on the sidelines with satisfaction, clapping one by one. Putting on Li Wan, the Lakers' rhythm not only did not have a problem, but also widened the difference to 7 points. Kevin Durant also made three shots without a hit after Li Wan played.
Although Li Wan only got 2 points and 1 assist during this period. But he was impeccable in those few minutes. For some players, many of his effects will not be reflected in the statistics. Li Wan is undoubtedly such a player.
Kevin Durant went off the court with his teammates. From the end of the first quarter, his head had been lowered, almost buried in his chest, and he did not reach out to wipe the sweat on his cheeks.
After sitting on his bench, he even covered his hair with a towel, covering his entire face in darkness, resting his hands on his knees, motionless.
P-J-Carlesimo, who was arranging tactics, noticed this situation, pulled the assistant coach to say a few words, conveyed his meaning, and asked him to continue to assign tasks to everyone, while he walked up to Kevin Durant himself, Keeping a certain distance, he tentatively shouted, "Kevin?"
Seeing that he didn't respond, p-j-Carlesimo took a step back more cautiously: "Kevin?"
"Um?"
This time, Kevin Durant finally reacted. He tore off the towel from his head, revealing a dull face and indifferent eyes.
p-j-Carlesimo took another step back when he looked up. Seeing him like this, he was relieved. Fortunately, he was just stunned and didn't lose his mind.
He immediately smiled kindly and sat down beside Kevin Durant. He is willing to act as a "father" to players when there is no danger.
"Man, you've only just entered the league, it's normal, you'll get used to it slowly."
Carlesimo can also understand that this game is only the first quarter. He first made Kobe Bryant's life on both ends of offense and defense unable to take care of himself. Now, when he encounters a rookie of the same class as him, he has his opponent defended three times in a row. Kevin Durant is sure to have a strong sense of frustration.
At that time, he also saw what Li Wan said to Kevin Durant, which should be the reason why Kevin Durant would be downcast.
Carlesimo wanted to say something at that time, but according to the media reports, the rookie was not very good-tempered. It's okay to criticize the players and the coaches. This is a sign of the next "madman". People, Callesimo has always been at a distance.
"Every player has this process, whether it's Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, they've all gone through times like this!"
"You're playing really well, the guys that the NBA rookies can average 20 points per game from the start of the season, the same guys for decades. You're a lot better than you think!"
Kevin Durant's back straightened in his words.
Noticing this change, Callesimo continued to speak: "I believe you will definitely have a way. I talked to Coach Rick Barnes, and he told me that only the sky is your limit!"
Coach Rick?
Hearing this name, Kevin Durant's expression was rejuvenated. This was his mentor in college. If he hadn't allowed himself to have unlimited firepower, he could fight as he wanted, there would be no Kevin today. - Durant!
Hearing that Callesimo had chatted with Rick Barnes, he immediately felt that the fat old man with small round eyes in front of him was much kinder.
"I know what to do, thank you coach!"
Kevin Durant is full of blood!
After about 2 minutes in the second quarter, Callesimo put him on the court.
Mike Conley, who has been paying attention to Kevin Durant, opened a sandwich at this time. After the first quarter, Kevin Durant's performance showed him that he was hungry and had eaten a sandwich. Now watch By the time he got on the court, Mike Conley wanted to eat another one. No way, his performance is too good.
When the Lakers saw Kevin Durant play, they immediately replaced Li Wan with Walton. He defended Kevin Durant so well that Phil Jackson simply followed the opponent to make substitutions. Whenever Kevin Durant played, he would let Li Wan play.
This time on the field is the Sonics' round.
Li Wan still defended Kevin Durant in the original way. When he saw him going to the high position, he grabbed the position in advance, but at this time, Kevin Durant changed his position, received the ball from the three-point line, and hit a hit .
Before he was on the court, the Lakers' bench rotation pulled some more points, reaching 9 points, and it was heading for double digits. The Seattle Center was a bit dull because of it, as if the weather before a thunderstorm, there are stocks Air is stuck in the hearts of Seattleites.
With the 3-pointer hit, the dullness was swept away.
"How is the ball?"
Kevin Durant finally found his chance.
Is this a change of play?
The sudden three-pointer was unexpected by Li Wan. Among Kevin Durant's shots, three-pointers are not his main scoring method, and the proportion may not even be 5%.
In addition to his three-point range but being unstable, his stride with the ball to drive to the basket is also more likely to create a surprise layup from a high position. If a surprise attack is launched from beyond the three-point line, the inside line is easy to react.
Li Wan shook his head slightly.
This is an unplanned score. With Kevin Durant's ability, some of the points he should have won. At least in the defensive strategy Li Wan formulated before the game, he didn't change his game because the opponent made two three-pointers. Law, not to seize the idea of high positions.
Kevin Durant's three-point shooting percentage so far is only 28.8%. This sample is not small in 6 preseason games plus 5 regular season games.
Kevin Durant really wanted a three-pointer today, 5 of 5, and he recognized it.
Detailed data analysis will not lie, and Li Wan is absolutely confident in his defensive strategy.
Besides, if Kevin Durant can make a 3-pointer, he can also make a 3-pointer.
While walking towards the frontcourt, his eyes met Kobe's. He immediately changed his position and moved towards the top of the arc with the ball, leaving the flanks to Li Wan.
That way, he's better off the ball.
In these two games, Li Wanneng could feel that Kobe's scruples did not occur on the court. Of course, he also knew that the premise was that his own performance could always be dazzling. Otherwise, Kobe would definitely not cooperate like this.
Noticing that Li Wan increased the frequency of moving without the ball, Kevin Durant became nervous. Li Wan made a name for himself in the league by relying on the "nerve knife", and his three-point catch gradually began to be jealous of other teams. .
That includes the Sonics.
Kevin Durant clearly remembers Callesimo saying yesterday that when Li Wan's off-ball movement increases, that's when he's ready to devote more of his time to the offense.
That is now!
Kevin Durant followed suit, but Kobe Bryant's abrupt lateral shift stood in front of him.
After bypassing Kobe Bryant, Li Wan, who "hands over" the ball, wanted to throw the ball. Kevin Durant was beyond his reach and could only watch him shoot.
"Shh!"
Li Wan successfully responded with 3 points!
Lakers teammates on the bench stood up and waved towels.
The difference is back to 9 points!
"pretty!"
Mike Conley took a hard bite of the sandwich and murmured. This three-point response is really relieved. Just now, he thought that Li Wan would suffer the same grievances as him, but he did not expect that in the next round, Li Wan responded!
"Go ahead, second place show, continue your three points!"
huh~
in!
I let out a breath.
Li Wan provokes Kevin Durant.
Swinging his arms like bamboo poles, Kevin Durant moved according to the tactics with an expressionless face, but he couldn't help thinking: Do you want to shoot another one? Do you want to cast another one?
Li Wan is so provocative, how can Kevin Durant, who is extremely confident in his scoring ability, bear it?
The heart of the response gradually took over the sanity, and once again moved beyond the three-point line, the Sonics quickly moved the ball, he went beyond the three-point line, and the ball was in his hands.
These people on the SuperSonics have good passing ability, the purpose is to serve Kevin Durant and ensure that he moves the ball to his hands as soon as he moves out of the open position.
Jump high, throw your hands up.
The ball went straight through the hoop.
"Another three!"
"From ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Kevin Wen Wen Wen, Dudu Durant!"
The live auditorium that had just been lit, shouts and cheers came out again, the sound was as loud as the roar of a bomber, as if grenades were flying all over the sky, and they all exploded!
At this moment, the Seattle Arena finally had some 16,000 people present at the scene.
"Here again, this pervert!"
Mike Conley gritted his teeth secretly. Kevin Durant's offensive talent is really the best among all the people he has ever met in the 2007 class. Even if he feels aggrieved, he has to admit it.
Can you fight back?
Mike Conley looked at Li Wan, who flashed by on the TV screen during the camera cut, and murmured softly on his lips stained with sandwich salad dressing.
Should be?
He could be the guy who could go head-to-head with Allen Iverson!
"Shh!"
"wow!"
Watching Li Wan do what he thought, he took the ball to the basket and scored, Mike Conley jumped up as if his **** was on fire, shouted, and looked excited.
too strong!
His college teammates are so strong right now!
Although he has already had a confrontation with Allen Iverson, there is precedent.
But at this moment, watching Li Wan respond to Kevin Durant continuously, Mike Conley sighed and shook his head unconsciously.
Is he really that strong?
"It starts again!"
Phil Jackson and Phil Handy glanced at each other. It wasn't the first time they saw Li Wan face off like this on the sidelines, but they couldn't help but be excited.
Now, whether Li Wan's "nerve knife" attribute strikes has become one of the most anticipated things on every night they have a game.
Or maybe none.
