10 month 26 day.
108 to 94, the Nuggets took away the victory at the Magic's home court.
This is their sixth preseason victory. Yes, the Nuggets have not lost in the entire 08-09 preseason.
After the game, Carmelo Anthony, who scored 32 points in this game, said confidently to the camera: "I have read a lot of reports, so I know that we are underestimated. In the championship discussion list, I I believe that the name of the Nuggets will appear soon..."
The reporters were stunned when they saw Anthony's serious expression.
Is this really that Carmelo Anthony, who has a lot of trouble off the court, thinks about the local club all day long, and learns how to dress after Allen Iverson?
why now...
It looks like that?
Is it possible that the melon is about to be "ripe"?
Watching Carmelo Anthony walk out of the press conference, many reporters planned to report a "ripe fruit" in their hearts.
"Chauncey, is that so?"
Carmelo Anthony, who got off the stage, walked up to Chauncey Billups who was watching outside the room, and asked excitedly.
Billups nodded: "This is a manifestation of daring to take responsibility, but a good leader does not just talk about it all, but has to practice it and accomplish it. This is not an easy thing. , but please believe me, I will definitely help you complete this matter, you are really, the best teammate I have ever seen..."
While speaking, Billups stretched out his hand and looked at him expectantly. Carmelo Anthony stretched out his hand without hesitation and held it together with him.
His eyes were full of fighting spirit.
In the "Golden Generation" of 03, Dwyane Wade had successfully "proven" as early as 06, and now LeBron James has also become the "No. 23" that the league is touting.
These are two of the top five picks.
Besides, Chris Bosh, who is not so good, has won a "coach of the season" Mitchell anyway.
Only he has nothing.
Except for Milicic, who was out of the water, he was actually the worst mixed among the top five picks in the 03 generation. Carmelo Anthony, who realized this, suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
time waits...
He didn't think about another question at all...
He had a lot of fun with Allen Iverson in the first 5 seasons, why did he suddenly care so much about the gap with his peers...
Billups breathed a sigh of relief.
Changing Carmelo Anthony's mind was far easier than he imagined. He originally thought that this guy had lost his goal and lost himself under the big contract and statistics.
champion?
Not even a dog!
As a result, it now appears that Anthony just lacks a mentor like him...
In this way, he can be regarded as having a strong helper...
As the first player of the "Five Pistons" to be passively traded, Billups naturally wanted to prove something.
Just like...
Finals MVP no parallel imports!
Next, he will let everyone see why he was the MVP of the 04 Finals!
On the other side, after finishing the interview, Li Wan returned to the locker room, stretched his waist comfortably, and could hear joints creaking. The 6 preseason games were finally over.
Just as he expected, the "China trip" was very torturous. The 12-hour flight plus jet lag played two games in 3 days. After returning, the jet lag continued. Here comes the game against the Nuggets.
How confused are the Magic's minds?
Let's put it this way, the plane on the night of the 18th arrived in China on the 20th.
Ok?
Where did the 19th go?
Wait until you come back from the game on the 26th, huh?Why is it still number 26?
The whole thing is time and space disorder...
It is also for this reason that in the last game against the Nuggets in the preseason, Stan Van Gundy warmed up the main players, then came down to rest, and fully prepared for the opening game.
The Magic lost tonight's game, and the final record was fixed at 4 wins and 2 losses.
Running-in is the main thing, so Li Wan basically doesn't play singles with the ball. There may only be four or five times in a game, and most of the scoring is based on catching the ball.
因此6场比赛，场均上场22.3分钟，可以拿到15.5分4.5篮板4助攻1抢断0.5盖帽。投篮命中率48.2%，三分球命中率42.3%，罚球命中率88.5%。
It is only 180 point away from the "1" club!
Unfortunately, this is only the preseason...
otherwise……
Well, Stan Van Gundy squinted his eyes happily, like a Maitreya Buddha.
Li Wan's efficiency is really delicious!
Even if he drops a little bit during the regular season, he is acceptable.
What makes him happy is not just this one thing. Howard can get a double-double of 20 plus 15 in 10 minutes of playing time in the preseason, and his efficiency is equally astonishing.
These two core players in Orlando in the new season are really...
It's so exciting!
On October 10, the opening game came.
Kevin Durant, wearing a green beret, stepped out of the bus very coquettishly...
"Kevin!"
Hearing a fan calling him, he immediately turned his head, looked for the fan, nodded in approval, and stretched out his long bamboo pole-like arm, pointing at the fan. ——Boy, you know the ball very well!
Being in Orlando, but loving Kevin Durant.
Have to say, bro, good taste...
He was planning to feel sorry for that fan, but unexpectedly, the fan said another sentence: "Be careful of being beaten and cried by Li Wan!"
As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of laughter among the fans.
Yes!
I also think too much!
How can Orlando have my Kevin Durant fans?
As long as Kevin Durant is in a small dark room now, holding a mobile phone, he will definitely fight this fan for [-] rounds.
now...
Kevin Durant froze, turned his head and pretended not to hear.Now he has just put down his schoolbag, and he has no intention of revealing his true nature so quickly.
Coming out behind him was the "young turtle" Westbrook in Tang suit.
Speaking of which, Agui has always been at the forefront of the fashion circle, an absolute NBA fashionista.
He and the temperamental Kevin Durant form the new atmosphere of the Thunder for the new season...
Go back to the locker room and change your jersey quickly.
The Thunder version of Kevin Durant is officially launched.
There are quite a lot of reporters coming to the Amway Arena today.
Although the league still arranged the game between the Lakers and the Spurs and the game between the Cavaliers and the Bulls on this day, the first matchup of the new season between Li Wan and Kevin Durant, two students of the same class last season, equally compelling.
For one thing, Li Wan just defeated the Dream Team in the summer, especially his lore goal, and became the "lonely hero" in the hearts of most fans of Ah Mai Rickon.They couldn't wait to watch Li Wan's game;
Secondly, Li Wan's efficiency in the preseason is very high, which has attracted a lot of media attention. Similarly, Kevin Durant's performance in the preseason of the new season has also improved significantly, shooting 49.2% He averaged 25 points in 20 minutes per game.
This efficiency, and the speed of scoring...
It's hard not to look forward to this matchup between him and Li Wan in the opening game of the new season.
"I will prove who is the best rookie in the 07 class..."
The so-called "the team is poor and the ambition is short, the horse is thin and the hair is long", knowing that with the strength of the Thunder, the Magic, which reached the Eastern Conference finals in the playoffs last season and played 7 games against the Celtics, was completely unable to fight. Wen-Durant kept silent about whether he could win, but only said that he or Li Wan would perform better.
A reporter told Li Wan what Kevin Durant had said.
As soon as Li Wan heard it, he knew that Kevin Durant was still clinging to the fact that he was not selected as the "Best Rookie"!
But for this, he was not surprised at all.
Kevin Durant is such a vulnerable person.
Green can plant a thorn in his heart with a single sentence, so much so that he won two finals MVPs, and he still wants to prove his heart and go to the Nets.
Of course, the final result is to make the "Green's formula" close the loop.
Originally, he had no opponents in his rookie season, and he successfully won the "Best Rookie", a result that satisfied him.But now, with the appearance of Li Wan, he lost the election.
His stubborn personality seems to have been exposed to the public eye faster than before.
Anyway, as far as Li Wan knew, the original Kevin Durant would definitely not say such extremely offensive words at this time to show his determination.
Successfully awakened the darkness in Kevin Durant's heart, Li Wan also directly responded to his challenge: "Kevin Durant is undoubtedly very strong and talented. Without me, he would be the 07 class." The strongest rookie..."
Originally, Li Wan had finished speaking, but in an instant, the kind Auden flashed through his mind.
His words continued: "Of course, he has to spend a lot of effort to defeat Greg first."
"But now, they are here to compete for second place..."
Without me, he would be the strongest rookie in the 07 class...
But now, they are here to compete for second place...
hiss!
This guy has improved not only his football skills in one summer, but also his trash talk?
However, such a confident Li Wan also made these reporters a little curious about what kind of progress Li Wan had made after not seeing him for a summer.
In other words, what kind of progress made Li Wan kill Mengba this summer!
"See you on the field, let's see what happens..."
Kevin Durant is not good at talking trash to the camera.
He prefers to yell behind the screen: key!
but……
In fact, it's intense enough now. After two rounds of confrontation, Li Wan also frequently uttered golden sentences, which is enough to make the outside world look forward to this game.
In the afternoon, with the influx of Orlando people, the Amway Arena, which had been quiet for a summer, regained its vitality. ——Although there were already spectators in the preseason games, how could that mere 8000 people compare to the current crowd of nearly 2 people?
The entire arena was like an explosion. No matter where you stood in the arena, your ears were filled with noise.
The Thunder have already entered the arena at this time, warming up in advance.
Westbrook looked curiously, is this an away game in the NBA?
It really is……
Kind of exciting!
Although A Gui has also experienced "March Madness", he has played in a larger court.
But those are all neutral arenas, it is impossible for such neat boos to occur.
Everyone's expressions were extremely aggressive, as if this group of people wanted to kill them for the team before the game started.
"Snapped!"
He was a little dazed because of these boos, and Kevin Durant slapped him on the shoulder:
"Don't pay attention to these boos, warm up well and let the other side know how good we are!"
A Gui nodded, expressing that the eldest brother is so handsome, and everything is under the orders of the "big brother".
Thunder coach Brooks watched the interaction between the two of them on the sidelines. Kevin Durant with Westbrook looks like a big brother with a little brother.
I am very pleased.
It's great that the Thunder's futures are so friendly.
Soon, the home team came into play.
The boos that had been going on at the scene also turned into deafening cheers at this time.
Westbrook subconsciously covered his ears.
Originally, he thought that the boos just now were loud enough, but unexpectedly, these fans still had some strength left.
Howard was very pleased with his appearance tonight.
Finale!
There is no doubt that he is still the first core of this team.
He was so happy that he didn't notice at all that when Li Wan appeared on the stage, the cheers on the scene were even louder.It's like a water glass that has already filled an arc, it's completely full, and it's reached its apex!
Orlando fans welcome Howard, but they are obviously looking forward to Li Wan, who made a big noise in the summer.
Kevin Durant was standing on the court with the ball in one hand. When he saw Li Wan playing, his eyes sharpened.The "sword" in the hand is also sharper!
If you have one, I can only compete for second place, right?
Let's see, who is the second child!
The big screen at the scene released the starting list of both sides:
Magic: Li Wan at No. [-], Raja Bell at No. [-], Turkoglu at No. [-], Lewis at No. [-], Howard at No. [-];
Thunder: Thabo Sefolosha at No. [-], Desmond Mason at No. [-], Kevin Durant at No. [-], Jeff Green at No. [-], Nenad Koss at No. [-] Tichy;
Due to the move away from Seattle and the appointment of new coach Brooks, the entire Thunder team has undergone quite a change.
At the same time, Kevin Durant officially moved to the third position.
The original third position Jeff Green moved to the fourth position.
The fifth position is Nenad Krstic, a restricted free agent they snatched from the Nets this summer.
Li Wan looked at Westbrook sitting off the court, and was a little surprised. How dare this guy come to the NBA, and he still started as a substitute?
But also...
Westbrook, who has not yet been "overhauled" in the factory, is really a bit ordinary at present. He still needs some time to grow and adapt to the rhythm of the league.
During this period of time, the Thunder are really willing to pay for their rookies.
Accompanying Kevin Durant for a season, and then accompanied Westbrook for another season, Harden may be a little bit worse later, he has been trained as a sixth man, and he did not sacrifice the team's record for him.
The first time in team history to reach the playoffs will be in the next season.
As far as the new team is concerned, the speed of entering the playoffs is already very fast.
Just look at the Bobcats. They have been building the team for 4 years, and they are still working hard to reach the playoffs for the first time in team history...
Against the backdrop of their peers, the Thunder's management team is even more outstanding!
"beep!"
The beeping stimulated the screams of the audience.
Li Wan pulled the elbow pad on his arm, walked to Kevin Durant, and said hello to him: "Hey, buddy, look at my elbow pad today, isn't the color a bit ugly?"
It's more than a little ugly!
Ugly!
Although he didn't say anything, Kevin Durant muttered in his heart that he didn't hesitate at all.
only……
After complaining, he lowered his head and inadvertently saw his ball uniform.
There are blue stripes next to the white.
It's the same color as Li Wan's elbow pads...
amount……
Kevin Durant, who realized that he had been tricked, looked up again. On the court, Krstic and Howard had already jumped high and began to scramble for the ball.
In the end, Howard won the first strike for the team.
"Everyone, take it easy..."
"It's just the opening game, don't turn the game into garbage time in one quarter,"
"Let our fans enjoy and enjoy!"
Li Wan slowly paced from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and what he said was as irritating as possible.
The point is, his voice is very loud!
The eyes of the five members of the Thunder team suddenly became a little more angry.
I wish I could eat Li Wan alive.
The ball is given to Turkoglu.
The Turks licked their tongues excitedly when they saw the name "Kevin Durant" written on the small forward position on the Thunder's starting roster tonight.
Hey!
Now that he got the ball, looking at Kevin Durant's small body that has hardly changed from his rookie season, he did not hesitate to use "meat bomb impact"!
There is little hindrance.
In Turkoglu's eyes, Kevin Durant is as thin as a membrane, which can be broken with a light poke.
Kostic established a firm foothold early and blocked the outside of the reasonable collision zone. The benefits of Turkoglu's slow breakthrough appeared. A "European step" staggered his position, and Lewis looked at Jeff Green who was about to move Seeing that he didn't dare to step forward, he passed the ball without looking at the person and hit the ground to Howard who was under the basket.
"Bah!"
Howard, "Superman", jumped vertically and blasted the Thunder's basket.
The sound of the dunk came from the horn above the rim, causing a huge roar from the audience.
The Magic's first goal of the new season came from "Warcraft" Howard's powerful dunk!
2-0!
"wow!"
Howard smiled and shook his head. It was so comfortable at the beginning!
One star radiates...
Thunder coach Brooks watched the Magic score a goal so easily and happily, silently chanting the name of this tactic in his heart.
Compared with the "one-star four-shot" of the Olajuwon Rockets, the Magic's "one-star four-shot" does not use the inside as the axis, but uses the small forward to break through to distribute the ball.
Before the center gets the ball, the entire formation is cut to create opportunities for singles at the basket...
Is this the idea of "Triangle Tactics" added?
"wow!"
The exclamation at the scene interrupted Brooks' thinking, and he looked up towards the court, just in time to see Kevin Durant "male on left and right", asking Li Wan to cut the ball away.
The exclamation also reached its maximum at this time.
Mason retreated quickly.
As the "Slam Dunk King" of the 02 All-Star Weekend Slam Dunk Contest, Mason's physical fitness has always been the capital of the league.
only……
So fast!
Mason subconsciously returned to defense while Kevin Durant's whole body was shaking.
At least two or three steps away.
Originally, Mason thought that he could set up a defensive stance in advance and wait for Li Wan to come down quickly.
But the current situation is that as soon as he steps on the three-point line, Li Wan over there has already rushed in front of him.
only one step away...
What kind of acceleration is this?
Is it that explosive?
Even if I am 31 years old and my physical fitness has indeed declined, I shouldn't be caught up so easily, right?
The actual situation can't help but think about it.
Mason could feel that if he didn't reach out and try to intercept...
There is no chance!
Do not……
There is no chance!
Just turning around in a daze, Li Wan jumped past him like a cheetah.
Mason vaguely saw what he looked like when he was young.
Taking a big step inside the free throw line, Li Wan jumped straight up, gliding and dunking, and with a powerful sip, he ignited the audience again.
Li Wan returned to the defense, smiled at Mason and said, "Draw a sketch for me, Draymond, you are so close to me, you should be able to see clearly, right?"
As a well-known player in the league who uses the NBA as a sideline.Mason wanted to be a painter more than an NBA player.
So much so that he never practiced during the off-season, and locked himself in a small dark room all day to draw.
This is the kind of player who has been in the league for 10 years...
It can be seen how easy it is for a talented person to play in the NBA!
Many people really work hard for an hour, but it is not as fast as Mason has finished painting two paintings and spent 10 minutes exercising to improve faster.
However, Mason is indeed talented enough to paint. He has successfully opened several art exhibitions. Even David Stern bought his paintings and hung them in his office.
In Li Yunlong's words, this motherfucker is really a genius!
Mason's reaction was beyond Li Wan's expectation. His eyes lit up and he replied, "Okay!"
It's not meant to be trash talk at all.
Li Wan was speechless for a moment.
This is also a true love of painting!
Just like Howard is true love saving a lost girl.
4-0!
The ball is brought upfield by Thapo Sefolosha.
When Kevin Durant received the ball this time, he glanced warily, found Raja Bell's position, and found Li Wan's position.
Only then did he turn his attention to Turkoglu in front of him.
With Kevin Durant moved to the [-], though more of his scoring came from catch-and-shoot.The ability to hold the ball is also under further development.
This has a lot to do with Mason's degradation.
A person who paints all day in the offseason, how good can you expect him to be with the ball?
In this way, Kevin Durant not only has to undertake the Thunder's outside shooting task, but also undertakes the Thunder's outside breakthrough task...
But under such circumstances, Du Xiaoshuai averaged a high shooting percentage of 47.4% in the second season of his career.
You know, LeBron James, the "chosen son" who is known for his efficiency, has this shooting percentage in the second season of his career.
But most of LeBron's shots, 70.00%, or even 80.00%, end at the basket.
Kevin Durant is the end of all projections...
From this, we can see how powerful Kevin Durant's "humanoid weapon" is.
That's right, without this ability, it is impossible to win three consecutive seasons of "scoring champions" in the future, a total of four "scoring champions".
I also noticed the change in his scoring method. Stan Van Gundy arranged an "absolute double-team" in this game.
It means that when Kevin Durant singles Turkoglu with the ball, the perimeter player closest to him must help defend.
In the round just now, Raja Bell and Li Wan formed horns and pushed forward at the same time. When Kevin Durant reacted and hesitated to go left or right, Li Wan had already taken the ball from his hands. poke off.
If he hadn't been so frightened in the round just now, he wouldn't have been able to find Li Wan and Raja Bell's positions immediately after halftime.
One thing is certain.
Let Kevin Durant and Turkoglu one-on-one, there is only one result, whoever has the ball, the opponent can't do anything to him.
Turkoglu's tonnage cannot be stopped by Kevin Durant, but similarly, Kevin Durant's sharp change of direction is also unstoppable by Turkoglu.
That is to say, the current Kevin Durant has not fully developed the ability to hold the ball. Otherwise, with regard to Turkoglu's defensive ability, the consequence of serious defense is that Durant has an extra "bare-foot terminator" outsider. Number.
as it is now...
Still the same big change of direction.
The abnormality of Kevin Durant is that his large-scale change of direction is not used for breakthrough at all. Under normal circumstances, he prefers to connect with lateral moves to further increase the distance between him and the opponent.
Seriously, with his height, who can keep up with a big change of direction and a lateral move?
It's also outrageous, a guy with a height of 2 meters has such good body coordination, and the movements he does are completely the movements that only defenders can do.
This is the most terrifying talent in Xiaoshuai.
With a height of 2 meters, he plays like a defender...
It's not wrong to hit anyone!
But he is also very accurate!
Of course, this refers to the "full body", Kevin Durant in the black robe of death.
Now Durant doesn't hold the ball to that extent.
and……
It can be considered self-defeating...
Kevin Durant made such a large lateral move, which greatly reduced the distance for Li Wan to pounce on the other side.
With an explosive power of 82 points, Li Wan can exert his strength at any time.
like this round...
When Kevin Durant jumped up, Li Wan on the side defended him.
Kevin Durant, who is always misplaced when he hits anyone, is really unable to suppress the height and wingspan of Li Wan's 2-meter-long arm interference.
"Bang" sounded.
It seems to be the restraint of fate.
Kevin Durant's first shot this season, facing Li Wan's long arm, popped out of the frame.
"This is your life, Kevin..."
While speaking, Li Wan quickly rushed towards the Thunder.
Kevin Durant turned his head and saw Howard quickly passed the ball to Turkoglu, who made a long-distance hit to the ground and passed the ball.
Of course, if this is in vain.
Turkoglu's skills are a bit too bad.
Because the ball bounced too high...
But if this is a pass...
That would be so beautiful.
With the height of the bounce, Li Wan can hold it in his hand with a single hook without slowing down.
Durant rushed to flatter.
The distance between the two is a bit far.
Kevin Durant thought of outflanking and got stuck in advance.
but……
Li Wanjin's explosive power and speed are not what he used to be, which makes him not lag behind Kevin Durant at all.
Seeing the basket getting closer and closer, the "spark" in the eyes of "Thor" became more and more vigorous.
This is my life, right?
Then I, Kevin Durant, will win the sky right now!
He wants to give Li Wan a peg board hat!
Yes, definitely possible!
But at this moment, Li Wan suddenly raised his hand...
I knew you had to make an early move!
Kevin Durant reacted almost immediately.
What is the most suitable way to attack the basket for "small and big"?
Isn't it just the time difference!
Durant jumped up, grunting inwardly.
Sure enough, it's really a game on the offensive end, where is this kid...
Eh?
Jumping Kevin Durant suddenly discovered one thing, that is...
The ball doesn't seem to be going towards the basket at all, does it?
Isn't this hitting the board directly?
And bounce back...
Again……
Self-throwing?
When Kevin Durant had this idea in his mind, he had already landed, the lights in the arena dimmed, and he looked up unconsciously, and what he saw was the No. 23 jersey of the Magic.
A handsome two-handed dunk!
Kevin Durant's head exploded like a thunderbolt.
He stared dumbfounded at Li Wan, who was hanging on the frame, and smiled brightly at him: "Be more defensive, Kevin, let's take the five best shots tonight!"
Stan Van Gundy looked at Ewing next to him, with a smile on every piece of flesh on his face: "Lee's physical fitness has improved a lot..."
At such a fast speed, Li Wan's self-throwing and self-dunk is actually very difficult, because the ball flies out with inertia, and the rebound speed will be faster, but if the physical fitness is not so good, it is easy to jump late.
It can be said that Li Wan's physical fitness has already ranked among the first in the league from this goal alone...
Going up, that's Howard level...
Li Wancai is 20 years old, and his physical fitness is definitely likely to improve further.
That is to say...
What is the experience of having two "Warcraft" in a team? Stan Van Gundy will take you to experience it.
The fans at the scene also watched hi.
Li Wan, the "self-throwing and self-defeating" Kevin Durant, didn't expect it, and they didn't expect it either.
When they saw Kevin Durant jump up and down like an idiot, and then Li Wan dunked on his head, their brains buzzed.
They didn't know what to do but scream.
As for Westbrook, who was still encouraged before the game, he grinned awkwardly looking at his "big brother" at this moment.
This "big brother" seems unreliable!
6-0!
The auditorium atmosphere, which was as high as a disco, obviously put a lot of pressure on the Thunder.
The key to Kevin Durant's expression is also a bit dull.
Brooks quickly called a timeout...
He is very clear...
This is stunned!
If he doesn't call a timeout to wake up Kevin Durant and the rest of the Thunder, then this game will be completely over.
In addition, he also immediately yelled towards the bench, "Russell, come on later!"
Although this is a rookie, his ability to break through with the ball is much better than that of Tzapo Sefolosha. Let him play to relieve Kevin Durant's pressure on the ball.
He also didn't think clearly about this game. Kevin Durant's strong desire to fight before the game made him feel that this kid should be given more opportunities to perform with the ball.
But now it seems that his ability to hold the ball is there, but not much.
Especially against the Magic's defense...
It was only two rounds, and Brooks could see it. The third position of the Magic team seemed to be a loophole, but the defensive speed of the other two outsiders was really...
Just one word, I only say it once!
It didn't help that Kevin Durant passed Turkoglu.
Because this is "Iron Lock Hengjiang".
Or try to break two more?
A bold idea came to mind, and Brooks thought he could try it.
Of course, Kevin Durant is already a little dazed, and it is not suitable to use it to test the offensive changes. He looked at Westbrook, who was eager to try after hearing that he could play:
"Russell, I leave it to you..."
Like words like "you are the best" and "the last hope of the whole village", Brooks is also the first time to be a coach, so he has little experience and is not good at fooling around.
Fortunately, Westbrook has just entered the league and is easy to get ahead.
Brooks' words sounded a little false to him, but they filled him with energy!
Are young people nowadays so foolish?
Brooks doesn't know whether he is too good at fooling or Westbrook is too good at fooling.
In short, after Westbrook took the ball on the court, his confident appearance made Brooks look slightly sideways.
Is this the vigor of youth?
Actually, there is another reason...
"Big Brother" can't...
Then I will do it myself!
Li Wan watched the future "Turtle" come on stage, and glanced at the time. It was less than 2 minutes. Westbrook should be very grateful to me, right?
After all, if it weren't for him, how could the Thunder make the substitution so quickly?
But soon, Li Wan discovered that this kid not only didn't thank him, but also meant to "repay kindness with revenge".He glanced to the side with the ball, pretending to give it to Kevin Durant, but there was a sudden acceleration and a straight breakthrough.
Westbrook is definitely a straight-hearted person with a lot of energy, not only because of Li Wan's familiarity with the later Westbrook, but also because of his appearance, but because of...
His breakthroughs have always been straight forward!
He really didn't take any turns, just like a stupid young man just out of society...
Can this not hit a wall?
Teacher Li Wan decided to teach him a good lesson today.
Quickly moving laterally, the current Westbrook really does not have such a strong impact. Even though Li Wan just believed his eyes, it was half a beat slower, but a quick retreat, coupled with lateral movement, is still very fast. blocked his next move.
Westbrook was forced to stop, and the ball changed from his left hand to his right hand. There was a feeling of trying to keep going, but at this moment, Raja Bell touched it.
It suddenly appeared on his right hand side, startled Westbrook, quickly grasped it with both hands, and passed it out. After all, it was a young man. This pass is too big. It is difficult for Li Wan to predict the success. !
Fast attack!
The two people who rushed to the front this time were Raja Bell and Li Wan.
Undoubtedly a good opportunity for a fast break.
Li Wan passed the ball to Raja Bell when he was approaching the basket, but the latter paused, watched him charge towards the basket, and gave a high throw.
Introducing new teammates!
Is "Position" broken?
"Bah!"
The cooperation between the Magic's backcourt, "flying the basket", and at the same time blowing up the scene!
Brooks finally couldn't help it, and covered his head.
8-0…
The four goals scored by the opposite side were all dunks!
It's not the worst.
The worst part is that...
The Thunder have not even played a decent offense so far.
Westbrook and Kevin Durant, who had just gained the ability to hold the ball, were also suffering. At the beginning of the new season, they met Raja Bell and Li Wan.
The backcourt combinations of the other 29 teams in the league, there are really few teams whose backcourt defense is better than them...
This is no longer paying tuition.
This shit is the "school bully" who drags him to the woods behind the school for military training after school!
How to let Westbrook, a freshman, know that not every night, he will encounter such a terrifying backcourt combination?
Brooks online and more...
Very urgent!
At the end of the first quarter, the Magic led 34 to 20.
When Westbrook left the court, he kept thinking: "If I run faster, I probably won't be able to stop it. If I run faster, I will definitely not be able to stop me!"
Look, what are you forcing the child into?
He really wanted to accuse Li Wan, you, you, you, haven't you just come from this stage?
oh no...
Brooks reacted suddenly.
Li Wan, who was in the second grade, was bullying the first graders, but when he was in the first grade, he was bullying those senior students there!
He has not experienced this time.
So you can't empathize, can you?
If he asked Li Wan, Li Wan would definitely shake his head. That's not true, I still feel a little bit, after all, there were a few matchups that made him feel pressured last season.
But during the most difficult period, he left Kobe with everything he couldn't solve.
His "Pippen" is still very powerful!
It's all solved for him...
I just don't want to wait for his Jordan to grow up, otherwise, he will definitely play in Los Angeles for a few more years.
Uh, far away...
and so……
A little feeling, but not much!
At the beginning of the second quarter, both sides played on the bench. The Thunder's biggest substitute player was Nick Collison, and his first jersey was retired by the Thunder.
It's just that his "defense is strong and attack is weak" is the only reason why he can be retired. In Li Wan's opinion...
It means "live" for a long time!
The Thunder team has just been established, and he is in;
The Thunder team entered the finals, he was in;
Thunder's "Three Young Masters" left one by one, but he is still...
The walking "Thunder Team Historical Records", when the Thunder team urgently needed to do something to ensure the loyalty of the players, he was regarded as a model and brought out.
did you see?
You don't need much performance!
All you need is your heart!
Then, the next retired jersey is you!
In addition to him, the Thunder's bench also has "Wandering Champion" Joe Smith.
As the biggest victim of the "Yin-Yang Contract", it is really rare for Joe Smith to be able to change teams a year and stay in the league.It's a pity that because of the "yin-yang contract", his image and reputation have completely collapsed, and no team is willing to sign a long-term contract with him.
These two people are all on the Thunder's bench.
Nothing to score...
Actually...
The same goes for the Magic. Jason Williams' current abilities are more suitable for being a "spiritual leader" like Haslem of the Heat.
In addition to him, Arroyo is left.
As for the others, they are all functional players. It is especially useful to match the starting lineup at certain times!
That's why ESPN gave Otis' play an A-.
The depth of the bench is indeed there, but the team still lacks a stable sixth man...
If this point can be made up, then this Magic team is really scary!
Both sides had no offensive ability, and within 2 minutes, the audience was almost sleepy.
Fortunately, at this time, Stan Van Gundy and Brooks replaced the starters successively.
After Kevin Durant played this time, he showed his adaptability. Instead of making a big change of direction and taking a lateral move, he took advantage of his height and long legs to rush directly to the basket .
Pretty!
Brooks looked at Kevin Durant's sudden change, shouted in his heart, and couldn't help clenching his fists.
Indeed……
"Snapped!"
Before Brooks finished boasting, Howard slapped Kevin Durant's layup.
As soon as he came back, there was a big commotion, this is the starting lineup of the Magic!
The Orlando people at the scene immediately felt relieved!
The arena was filled again with cheers.
However, in Li Wan's view, Kevin Durant's round was very good, at least it activated the "second form" of the Magic's defensive formation.At that time, he gave a thumbs up to Kevin Durant who was back on defense: "Good shot, although I didn't score..."
Kevin Durant: ...
If you didn't score, what kind of a good goal would that be?
Stan Van Gundy watched with pride as Howard slapped Kevin Durant's offense away.
This is the current Magic team. There is a layer of "Chain Hengjiang" on the outside, but when the opponent breaks through to the inside, they will find...
Damn, there is no way inside!
Howard has evolved again. Now he can help defend faster than before, and the quality is still very high!
Do you understand what is called "Steel Castle"?
Stan Van Gundy believes that after the regular season this season, all the media will use this term on the Magic.
At the end of the first half, the Thunder team was completely dumbfounded!
They lost themselves in the Magic's defense. What's worse, they couldn't defend their opponents. Li Wan scored a total of 12 points in the first half, including 5 dunks, and 2 points were dunks destroyed. Free throws earned.
Tonight, he is completely playing the "Brother Beast" style, plus another "Warcraft" with rough skills, they directly regard the Thunder's inside line as "Happy Valley".
Playing with the rim in front of the Thunder gang.
In the end, before the third quarter was over, Brooks raised his hand, stopped playing, and surrendered...
He raised the white flag!
No way, look at Westbrook's loveless appearance...
Brooks feels that if the kid is not replaced, I am afraid that Westbrook will announce his retirement on the spot after the game is over.
Kevin Durant's expression wasn't much better.
Before the game, he held back his energy and wanted to make a big fuss in this game.
He believes that he has this ability.
As long as it is 1v1, the Magic will definitely not be able to stop him.
result……
Whether he thinks it is right or not, I don't know...
Because the opposite party didn't play 1v1 with him at all, it was all "group fights"!
As long as he got the ball, the eyes of the other four were fixed on him.
He made 6 turnovers tonight!
Among them, 4 mistakes were all taken away from the side during singles.
He really didn't expect that the majestic "Magic Team" was actually the "Old Sixth Team"!
how?
Is your magic trick to take the ball out of my hand in a hundred different ways?
This team is so shameless!
Wait, when I have stronger teammates, I have to settle this account with you! !
Kevin-Xiao Yan-Durant made four silently in his heart.
As a result, Li Wan's slow voice came from the side...
"Let you take it easy... This team can't stand the fight, is it okay now? Everyone has nothing to play!"
Blue veins plus 1.
Blue veins plus 2.
Blue veins add 3, add 4, add five...
Kevin Durant was very angry, but seeing that the Thunder had fallen behind by 25 points, he was speechless.
Angry people are angry, but what Li Wan said was right, they were indeed a little bit irresistible.
108 to 79, this is the final score of the two teams.
Just one point away, the difference is 30 points...
Even fans who didn't watch the game can roughly guess what kind of crushing game this is based on the point difference.
Orlando returned with satisfaction.
The momentum played by the Magic in the opening game made them feel that the future of the Magic in the new season is promising!
Especially the expectations for Li Wan have increased a bit!
The style of play has become more fierce, so forget it...
return……
全场比赛下来，李万没打第四节，只上场了25分16秒，却砍下了20分5篮板4助攻2抢断的全能又带着几分华丽的数据。
If you look at his shooting percentage, it will be even more fragrant...
He took 14 shots and hit 8 goals, with a hit rate of 57%!
An outside player with such a high hit rate, if it continues, "Nervous Knife Kid" can be renamed "Efficiency Kid"!
If Li Wan knew about this, he would definitely say, "Actually, it's not that you can't be called an efficiency boy..."
Those "nervous knives" broke out and had the strength of all-stars or even superstars, but in the end they still failed to become all-stars or superstars. In the final analysis, they were "nervous knives" and not stable enough.
It can be said that every all-star, superstar or superstar has transitioned from the "nervous knife" stage.
Anyway, his first signature shoe has already been released, and Li Wan's thoughts on taking off the hat of "nervous knife" have gradually increased.
Don't underestimate the impact of a fixed label.
Take the later McGee as an example. Shaq's "Five Big Jokes" made him not very smart, which made many teams refuse to accept him as soon as they heard that he was going to try out, leaving him without a job for a while.
The same goes for "Neur Knife", which always gives people a feeling of instability.
Which team will train such players as the absolute core?
Although Li Wan has done a lot of great things now, in the first season of his career, he can accept this label, and even called himself a "nervous knife".
But now that he is gradually transitioning to a higher level, this label must be torn off.
A person who can perform stably at ordinary times can burst out with greater energy at critical moments...
This is what all-stars and superstars do!
Other Magic players:
"Warcraft Howard" almost hit 100% of his shots. He made 11 of 10 shots and scored 20 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks. In the second half of the game, the Thunder did not dare to rush to the basket anymore. The support was frightened;
Turkoglu has 12 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, a data that fully reflects his characteristics.
Lewis scored 10 points. Tonight, he should be the only one on the Magic team who was "beaten". He made 7 three-pointers and hit 2 goals.
Jeff Green restrained him well.
On the other side, the Thunder started with a collective "amnesia".
Kevin Durant scored 22 points in 15 shots, and his 31% shooting rate was completely different from the preseason.In addition, there were 6 turnovers.
But even so, he was the Thunder's highest scoring player tonight.
Jeff Green ranked second with 11 points, most of which were scored after garbage time;
Westbrook, who was originally a substitute, got a lot of time in this accident. As a result, he made 11 of 3 shots and was almost delirious by "military training".
None of the others scored in double figures...
1 to send.
