Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 567 Arrogant Durant
In local time, on December 09, 12, this was the last game of the Lakers before Christmas Eve. After this game, they could have a day off.

The only bad news is that they still have to play the Christmas game. As the defending champion team, if they don't arrange to play the Christmas game, it can only mean that this team will be directly dismantled and rebuilt during the offseason.

Durant's declaration of war before the game has long been a topic of interest in the media. He is not a star like James or Anthony. Although in Oklahoma, Durant has a lot of fans.Even in the past two seasons, the hook company has been supporting Durant, and it has not caused a surge in Durant's fan base.

The Thunder has always been an underwhelming team in the past two seasons. Those fans who like strong teams will not pay attention to the Thunder at all. If it is not for the key games, the media will rarely report on the Thunder.

That is, this season, the team's winning percentage was more than half, which attracted the attention of some fans.

In the locker room of the visiting team, Harden looked at Durant with a somewhat unfriendly look.This guy really likes to show off so much that he even challenged Li Tian. He thinks that this is simply beyond his control.

Durant is still immersed in his dream, he thinks 'as long as he can win Li Tian, ​​he will be able to reap Scarlett's love. '

So he doesn't care at all what fans or teammates think of him. At this moment, Scarlett is the only one in his mind, and everything else is WBD!

It's just that poor Du Xiaoshuai didn't know that even though he won the championship, Scarlett still didn't look him in the eye. It's really pitiful, but a poor person must have something to hate. Disdainful.

These are all later stories, let's not mention them for the time being!
Brooks, in the locker room, was spitting all over the place, laying out the tactics for this game.He knew before the game that Durant had already challenged Li Tian on social media.

Knowing that it is difficult for the team to win the game against the Lakers, he doesn't mind using this game to win the favor of the team's star. For him, nothing has been lost.

On the contrary, if Durant can defeat Li Tian in terms of personal data, the All-Star voting will start soon. This can become a gimmick for the team to vote for Durant, which is better than nothing.

"Kevin, Green, you must be prepared to double-team Lee, and don't give him an easy shot."

"Westbrook, when attacking, if you don't have a good shot, you must not be blind. Give the ball to Kevin and create singles opportunities for him."

Hearing Brooks' words, Westbrook couldn't help but frowned.

I thought in my heart, "The meaning of listening to the coach's words is obvious. This guy, when I encounter a bad opportunity, I have to give the ball to Durant. And he can play singles, and he needs his teammates to help him open the space. Why? Can't I go to singles and my teammates help me open up the space?"

Although he was upset, Westbrook still didn't refute, but nodded in agreement, but he was definitely upset.

"Does everyone understand?" Brooks glanced at everyone after finishing the tactical arrangement.

"Understood! (No problem!) (Yes!)" Although everyone's answers were confusing, the meaning was very clear.

In the locker room of the home team, Phil also arranged tactics. The last time he played against the Thunder, he knew that the current Thunder team must not be underestimated.

He has also become cautious, but the players don't think so. The most typical is Odom, who doesn't care. He thinks that the young Thunder, in his eyes, are full of disdain in his words, and he thinks it must be easy to catch.

After the entrance ceremony, Li Tian walked to the sidelines.

"Ms. Scarlett, thank you very much for canvassing votes for me on social media. I have to sigh, you are really beautiful today!" Walking in front of Scarlett, she praised her.

If Taylor hadn't specifically said that Scarlett would come to Staples to watch the game today, he wouldn't have paid attention to it. After all, apart from Taylor, he only had basketball in his eyes.

"Thank you, you are also very handsome, just tell me if you need votes, I am happy to help you!" Scarlett's smile is very sweet, but in his eyes, compared with Taylor, there is still a gap.

"Thank you very much, look at my teammates, seeing you coming, they have become abnormal!" He pointed to the location of the drooling teammates.

"Haha." Scarlett also smiled knowingly. She was very confident in her beauty. This was not the first time she had encountered such a situation.

"I hope the Lakers can win today's game and teach me a lesson, that ignorant Durant!" Scarlett cheered for Li Tian.

"Haha, no problem!"

Seeing what Li Tian was talking to Scarlett, Durant couldn't help cursing in his heart, "Damn it, let go of that girl's hand, I'd be happy to touch it."

"Get out, he's a hooligan!" He also muttered.

His eyes were already on fire, and he looked straight at Scarlett's direction, without noticing what his teammates were doing at all.

"Kevin, come here quickly, the game is about to start!" Westbrook pulled Durant out of his thoughts.

Gasol walked towards Li Tian with a sinister smile on his face.

"Li, I feel that you must have been deceiving us yesterday." She hugged him and clamped his neck and said.

"Scarlett and I, this is the first time we met, and it was also the first time we talked!" At this time, Li Tian was like an innocent child. We know each other, and we haven't had any communication.

Even Sun Yue was a little skeptical at the moment, the authenticity of his words, after all, the two were very close just now, how could it be the first time they met.

"Quickly explain, did you go romantically with her yesterday." Gasol prepared to break the casserole and ask the end, as if you would kill you if you didn't confess honestly.

Gasol also has a different kind of covet for beautiful women!
"Get out, you think everyone is like you, a romantic Spaniard, but I'm from China!" He walked away with a look of disgust, ignoring Gasol's pestering.

The competition was about to start, so I temporarily gave up pursuing the investigation, and planned to wait until the competition was over, and then everyone interrogated them together.

Thunder starting: Westbrook, Sefolosha, Durant, Green, Krstic.

Bynum easily won the jump ball, Li Tian held the ball and was ready to launch the first attack!
"Hmph, I will lock you up!" Durant immediately stepped forward, came to him, and said such a sentence.

Seeing that there was no response, he thought he was afraid of himself, and became even more arrogant.

Pulling out from outside the three-point line also wanted to find his own feel.

"Damn it, you actually made a direct shot!" Durant cursed in his heart. He didn't expect that the opening game would be a dry shot. The team had already given him Li Tian's detailed scouting report before the game.

In the NBA, all players, no matter which team they are in, will give him a scouting report, especially Li Tian, ​​who is the core of the team's offense, will definitely have a detailed scouting report.

According to the scout report, a dry jump shot is not Li Tian's regular offensive method, so Durant did not expect that he would start with a dry jump shot.

"Touch!" This shot was a bit short.

Green grabbed the rebound and then gave the ball to Durant, but not to Westbrook. This shows that Westbrook and Durant have different positions in the team.

Looking back, Durant stared at Li Tian's defense, and made a strong three-pointer from the outside.

At the moment of the shot, he was a little worried that he would be blocked, but when he made the shot, the defense did not interfere with him.

"Shua!" A three-pointer was hit!
"Did you see? I'm stronger than you!" Durant was very excited when he saw the three-pointer. He shouted at Li Tian and pointed to the basket.

While shouting, he pointed to the basket at the same time, but the direction his eyes were looking at was Scarlett's direction.

For several minutes in a row, Li Tian only hit one goal, and his touch never eased.

"Li, take a break first, I will attack, and you will attack after the next quarter. In a game, everyone will feel bad. When encountering such a situation, you must not force your shot."

Seeing that Li Tian was not in good condition at this time, Kobe hurried over and said.

In the league, after playing for so many years, there were several seasons when he carried the team alone, and there were many games where he didn't feel good. At that time, he could only continue to play hard, because no one could help him.

"It's okay, Kobe, I will definitely pay more attention." This is experience. Kobe didn't have helpers around at the time, but he was different at this time, with Kobe and Gasol around him.

"Haha, you can't do it, you can't even touch the ball now!" Durant became even more excited when he saw Kobe attacking with the ball.

Even if he knew that everyone would have a bad hand feeling, he would not think so. In his cognition, it must be because his own defense played a role, and it was the oppressiveness brought about by his own defense that made his hand feel so sudden. drop.

"Even your teammates have given up on you, you are finished!" These words were very arrogant, with the look of a villain.

"Aren't you very angry, you can't guard me, and I hit another mid-range shot!"

I don't know why, but Li Tian's touch has declined, and even his defense has been affected. Occasionally, there will be scenes of distraction. Durant took advantage of the opportunity to successfully break through and hit a mid-range hit with an emergency stop!
Phil saw that his condition was not good, so he made a substitution adjustment in advance, replacing Artest and letting him defend Durant.

In the first quarter of the game, he played 8 minutes and shot 5 of 1 shots at only 20%, which is really pitifully low. Relying on free throws, he scored 5 points, which was very inefficient.

"Hehe, I told you a long time ago that you can't do it!" Seeing Li Tian being substituted, Durant became more and more arrogant.

He does have the capital of arrogance. In the first quarter of the game, Durant's performance exploded, shooting 5 of 4 and scoring 13 points, leading the team to lead the Lakers by 24 points at 19:5.

"Barkley, Li's condition is not good today. Could it be that something happened?" Smith looked at Barkley. He knew that Barkley often paid attention to Li Tian's news, and at the same time could collect news.

"Smith, isn't this a normal situation? Every player has times when they feel bad. Even Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has missed several hooks in a row!" Barkley didn't care, although In this game, Durant was provocative, but he didn't feel good, and he didn't blindly shoot from the outside. This is the best performance of growth.

Hearing Barkley's explanation, Smith also thought it was normal. He was stronger than Jordan, and he was kicked out by the Pistons for several consecutive seasons. In competitive sports, state is really important, and it can definitely affect the outcome of the game.

Durant became even more arrogant!
