NBA: No. 1 Forward

Chapter 306: Ironhead Westbrook

At 7 minutes and 32 seconds into the second quarter, Durant made a mid-range shot. Under the interference of Lian Dao, the basketball bounced out of the frame.

This did not attract much attention, but then Durant missed several shots in a row, while Lian Dao still maintained a normal shooting percentage. Just now, Lian Dao made three of five shots and made two free throws. .

The Knicks took the opportunity to open the score to 20 points.

Scott Brooks called timeout again.

Durant put his hands on his hips, his eyes were only confused.

Compared with the previous Durant, his shooting has indeed improved a lot this season, but the problem of Durant's shooting stability has not been completely resolved, and his physical fitness is still the biggest obstacle restricting his further performance.

In the previous games, both Harden and Westbrook led the substitute lineup in the second quarter. Westbrook was interrupted to rest in the second quarter, and Harden brought the substitute to fight the opponent's substitute.

In the third and fourth quarters, all the main players played to harvest the game. Even so, in the second half of the fourth quarter, Durant often suffered a sharp drop in hits due to physical reasons.

Moreover, he played against Lian Dao throughout the first quarter of the game, and his physical fitness declined rapidly. Lian Dao knew Durant's physical fitness was not good enough. Unique real strength.

And in the column of physical fitness, he is only 80. As a superstar of the new generation, this value can only be said that he is barely qualified. It's a b-level physical fitness.

But Durant's three-point score is 89 points, and it is still on the rise. His mid-range shooting score is even higher at 94, which is the same as the current Lian Dao. Now the mid-range shooting percentage should be about the same as Durant.

But with the addition of the badge's hit rate, Lian Dao's mid-range hit rate is much higher than Durant.

This is also the reason why Lian Dao chose to fight Durant in the first quarter. He knew Durant's weakness, so he would try to score points with the opponent as much as possible, forcing the opponent to consume more energy.

As the head coach, Scott Brooks naturally knew Durant, so after the first quarter, he wanted Durant to rest in the second quarter, but Durant, who was already on top, ignored his physical shortcomings.

At this time, he also reacted, and now he also understands that there is not only a gap in hit rate, stability, and strength between himself and Lian Dao, but also a bigger gap in physical fitness.

This is why it is difficult for Durant to score high scores like Lian Dao and Kobe Bryant. Even before Lian Dao's rebirth, Durant's physical fitness was still his weak point, and he was often targeted by opponents in the playoffs.

"Kevin, sit on the bench and rest, let Russell lead the rotation."

Westbrook also patted Durant on the shoulder at this time, his eyes were full of fighting spirit, "Don't worry brother, I will definitely help you bite the score and wait for you to come back!"

The current Westbrook is not the only turtle who later regarded the triple-double record as very important. In many cases, he is still centered on Durant, but he just doesn't know how long Westbrook can keep like this.

After a while, the Thunder made adjustments to the players on the field. First, Jeff Green came to the third position, and DJ White was replaced at the fourth position.

The head coach Scott Brooks is also very helpless. Although the Thunder team has a lot of people in the fourth and fifth positions, but there are not many players who can play. Except for Jeff Green and Yin Baka, there are only DJ White and Nick Cole. Leeson.

But they don't have a permanent rotation player at the third position this year, which means that Durant is the only permanent player at the third position, and if they rotate, they can only supplement from the second and fourth positions.

No, Jeff Green came to the third position.

But such a rotation is obviously unqualified. If they want to go further, they must either supplement the third position as a substitute, or they need to strengthen the fourth and fifth positions.

Although Jeff Green is only 2.03 meters tall, he is not as tall as Durant, and his speed is even weaker than Durant.

It's not too simple for Lian Dao to face Jeff Green.

He directly used his speed to eat Jeff Green alone, and after rushing into the inside, he dunked directly.

Westbrook looked at Lian Dao coldly, and then even let Jeff Green pick and roll, and then misplaced Lian Dao in singles.

Lian Dao also licked his lips excitedly, beating the child on a rainy day, and being idle is idle, anyway, a lesson is a lesson, and it is okay to take this iron-headed boy along with him.

Without further ado, Westbrook dribbled the ball and slammed into it. This guy's offense is like this, a bull rush. Anyway, above the number one position in the league, he has never seen a player stronger than himself.

And his trick is very effective, even some inside players, he can knock people away.

Only this time, he obviously miscalculated.

Under Westbrook's impact, Lian Dao remained motionless and firmly withstood Westbrook's impact.

After discovering that the bull rush had failed, he raised his hand, trying to forcefully shoot the ball.

This is a bit too contemptuous of Lian Dao's defense!

Lian Dao stretched out his hand and gave Wei Shao a hot pot.

Danny Green grabbed the ball and then went down for a layup.

"It's just you, little guy, shooting against me, are you thinking about shit?!" Lian Dao spat trash talk at Westbrook.

In addition to his height disadvantage, Westbrook is actually very good in strength, jumping, speed, etc. It can be said that he is a smaller James.

And because this guy often relies on his body to play, some technical moves are very rough. If Westbrook's dribbling is on the first position, it is really not stable. When encountering a strong defense, he will often miss it by himself.

Because this guy relies on his body, his shooting has actually not improved much in the past two years, which is one of the reasons why he has been traded continuously in later generations.

After all, with the increase of age and the reasons of injuries, his explosive power, speed, jumping, etc. also began to decline, and it was no longer possible to become a turtle that flew into the sky and escaped from the ground, and later became an iron turtle , Many times it is emptied, and it can still strike iron.

This guy came to the Lakers later, and he can be regarded as inheriting Kobe's blacksmith shop, but Kobe's blacksmithing is a sideline, and Westbrook's main business is directly operating in Los Angeles!

The point difference also came to 22 points, but Westbrook was not affected by Lian Dao's block.

He once again came to Lian Dao's head firmly, and then kept changing his rhythm. After changing direction, he quickly rushed to the inside line.

This guy's speed is very fast, which is also one of his talents when he was young. It is difficult for many No. 1 players to have both speed and strength, but Westbrook has both.

Although Lian Dao's speed is fast, he is not as fast as the turtle. Lian Dao's speed is comparable to or even slightly better than that of the No. 2 player, but he is at a disadvantage compared with the No. 1 player.

Westbrook then knocked away David Lee who was defending, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com then scored a dunk.

David Li kept rubbing his chest, and asked Lian Dao in pain, "How did you feel okay just now?"

"I can fight Garnett and Howard in the interior without losing the wind. It's no small thing to resist Russell!"

Lian Dao then broke through Jeff Green with the ball again, and scored a layup after reaching the inside. It was not too easy.

Westbrook also discovered at this time that Jeff Green was indeed at a disadvantage in terms of speed when facing Lian Dao. At this time, Westbrook couldn't help shouting to Lian Dao: "Sickle, your opponent is me, are you afraid to fight me alone? pick!"

Harden next to him wanted to talk about learning something, but Westbrook had finished speaking before he could speak, so he could only silently pray for Westbrook's good luck.

Among the Thunder, James Harden knows the strength of Lian Dao best. He is an opponent of the NCAA Parker Ten League and a member of Lian Dao's training camp. No one knows the horror of Lian Dao's strength better than him.

Lian Dao was taken aback when he heard that, but he didn't expect Wei Shao to be masochistic, so he had to satisfy this tough kid with this request.

So, on both ends of the offense and defense, he and Tony Allen were swapped.

Westbrook made another continuous disguise, and then suddenly exploded.

Lian Dao let Westbrook go directly this time.

Westbrook, who passed Lian Dao, rushed straight to David Lee who was defending. This time David Lee defended ahead of time, and Rasheed Wallace was stationed at the basket.

Westbrook found that there was no way to block the dunk this time, so after knocking David Lee away, he chose a small throw.

At this time, his shooting percentage of small throws is higher than later, which is one of the ways he scores now.

After the basketball was released, it flew to the basket. Just as Westbrook was waiting for the basketball to enter the net to celebrate, a big hand suddenly appeared on the path of the basketball.

It was Lian Dao who returned to defense in time!

Brutal cap grab!
