Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left - Chapter 1046
Chapter 1046 This is the real gap
The first half belonged to Zuo Li and Durant. There is no doubt that in the playoff level defense, the two scored 30+ and 20+ respectively. Now that the scoring value has not expanded, this is definitely very special. Golden score.
People praised: “It is indeed the top two players on the scoring list today.”
The so-called reputation is worthless, such a wonderful performance in the first half made the fans have more expectations for the two in the second half.
Especially Durant fans, although the score was 10 points behind, Adu played a lot less time. In their eyes, this is evidence that Adu is recuperating for the second half!
“Zuo Li doesn’t take a break for a minute. He is too concerned about gains and losses. It’s clear at a glance who gets the points.”
“The outcome is still unknown. I believe Durant will be even more violent in the second half. Don’t forget, in terms of scoring alone, he is definitely the leader in the league.”
“This is the real scoring champion. It’s not something to be proud of if it takes a long time to get it!”
…
Adu’s fans still know how to counterattack. They are very confident at this time, as if they can see death come in the second half.
The Zuo Li fans sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, no matter what the opponent said, they didn’t bother to fight back. After all, the facts are in front of them, 10 points is a naked lead, and it is possible that Zuo Li scored too easily, causing many people to forget that 10 points How difficult it is to get points, you must know that many players will never get 10 points in a single game in their lifetime.
Overtake?
What to overtake!
Back then, superstars like Kobe, James, Wade, Anthony, and Dirk couldn’t take any advantage in the confrontation. Can Durant be better than them?
Zuo Li’s outstanding record in the past is the source of their confidence.
It’s just that even the most loyal Zuo Li fans couldn’t imagine that the second half turned out to be like this.
…
“We need to be more decisive in the second half! Harden, you pull on the outside and shoot when you have a chance.”
“Wes, you control the ball, it’s still the same as in the first half, creating opportunities for Durant.”
Before the opening, Brooks once again emphasized the Thunder’s tactics in the second half.
They are going to replace the three young players at the beginning of the game and use the strongest offensive lineup to chase points.
However, Brooks’ complexion is not very good. On the one hand, the score is behind, and the most important thing is Durant’s state.
Brooks glanced at Durant who was in a daze. Although he tried his best to rest Durant in the first half, Durant’s physical fitness was visibly declining.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Durant’s shots have already started to drift in the second half of the second quarter, and his shooting percentage has also dropped rapidly. If he can maintain his shooting percentage in the first quarter, the gap with Zuo Li will definitely not be there. 10 points is so much.
The 15-minute intermission was not enough for Durant to slow down, and he himself asked not to replace him in the third quarter, which undoubtedly made Brooks more worried about his physical fitness.
I have to say that the Knicks are ruthless enough.
Battier and Danny Green seldom attack, even at the expense of Curry’s playing time, let Beverly and Kelai take turns to substitute, and ensure that there are two defensive outsiders on the court at any time. There are no vacancies left for Durant.
At the same time, when defending, he constantly creates physical contact. As long as Durant wants to break through, he immediately fights, does not give a chance, and forces Durant to make difficult shots.
I have to say that it is ruthless enough and deadly enough.
“I hope Durant can find a balance.” Brooks can’t help it. This game has already supported both teams. You can’t be cowardly, otherwise the rhythm will be too big after the game.
Durant himself knows that his physical fitness seems to be declining faster than before, but he can’t be cowardly, he has to prove himself!
Sense of faith!
Tonight’s Durant is definitely the most ruthless and hardest time in his career.
If it’s not enough, sometimes it’s not tight enough. With the left standing in front, Durant has stimulated his full potential.
So in the third quarter, Durant continued his tough style of play in the first half as soon as he came up. In the first round, he stepped back and drifted a fadeaway jumper in front of Battier.
brush!
scored!
“Ahhh! Durant, you are the best!”
Durant fans were very excited. They all said that Durant’s shooting is easy. Look, who said he can’t shoot difficult shots!
You can indeed vote.
But Durant’s biggest problem has never been this. On the contrary, it’s not a problem if the difficulty of shooting is not high. The easier it is to score on the basketball court, the better. Why didn’t Jordan dunk in the later stage, because they are also two points, and dunks consume more Physical fitness.
So I didn’t see that the Knicks didn’t panic at all when Durant made such a goal, but they were very satisfied with Battier’s defense.
That’s the way to go!
On the other hand, catching the ball and hitting a three-pointer after the left pick-and-roll is very efficient and extremely easy.
Adu continued to attack depressedly. He originally wanted to rest for a few seconds, but Zuo Li didn’t give him a chance at all.
Not only that, when he got the ball again, he found that the Knicks’ defense had changed again!
“Intercept! Force him to turn his back!”
Zuo Li remote control command, Danny Green understands, Durant can only hold the ball with his back in order not to be double-teamed and intercepted.
“It happened!”
As soon as Durant turned his back, he knew it was not good. His back-up technique is actually not bad, at least better than James.
But he still seldom backs up, because his backing up efficiency is not high, especially when encountering defenders who like fierce confrontation, it will make him very uncomfortable.
This is still caused by his physical limitations.
And the Knicks have already studied Durant’s style of play thoroughly, double-teaming him instantly when he broke through to the left, UU reading www. uukanshu.com This is a defense that has never been used before, and the purpose is to force Durant to back up!
The helpless Adu could only pass the ball. Westbrook broke through with the ball and was interfered by Zuo Li. Randolph took advantage of the rebound and handed it to Zuo Li.
Dribble behind your back!
Westbrook watched the big man break through to the frontcourt faster than the guards and then made a dunk.
36 points!
“The Knicks have changed their defense. Durant is under too much pressure. The Thunder should let Harden or Westbrook share his pressure.” Director Zhang said.
Durant did the same. In the next few minutes, Durant didn’t take a single shot. Instead, Harden made two three-pointers to widen the point difference.
But watching Zuo Li’s score officially break through 40 and continue to rise, and his score has been stuck at 23 points for a long time, Durant finally couldn’t sit still.
Post-up singles, turn around and make a strong shot!
Durant finally did it anyway.
However, the decline in physical fitness and the Knicks’ defense caused Durant’s shooting percentage to continue to decline.
27 points, at the end of three quarters, Durant still failed to break through 30 points.
What’s even more frightening is that Durant already needs to support his knees to recover in the later stage.
“Hoo hoo hoo…”
Beads of sweat dripped down. After playing for 12 minutes, Durant covered his head with a towel. He couldn’t feel his legs at this time.
And next door, Zuo Li, who played 36 minutes and scored 44 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks in three quarters, easily replaced his soaked jersey.
“Zuo Li is indeed a higher-level existence, and there is still a gap between Durant and him.” O’Neill sighed, and now, the winner has been divided. Previous Chapter Contents Bookmarks Next Chapter
