Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth - Chapter 675
Oklahoma City players came on the court afterwards. It can be seen that this timeout is still very helpful to them. Although they did not set off any violent offensive in the following, they still maintained the point difference at 9 points very well. This is them. The point difference that has been pulled down before the timeout. For this team, it is actually very good to be able to maintain such a state when there is obvious ups and downs in the state. After all, in the imposing New York Knicks. He didn’t continue to lose points in front of him. This is a good adjustment.
It can also be seen from Brooks’s expression that he was very angry at the muddiness of the Thunder’s players. After all, in his opinion, it was the time when they were chasing points, but Yi Jianlian suddenly made an effort to take the whole game. The rhythm of the game was controlled by the New York Knicks, which also made the entire game very difficult to play.
After the timeout was called, although it can be seen that the Thunder players seem to have undergone some changes, Brooks is still worried that they will not be able to change on the court. Fortunately, judging from the current situation, they have really changed. Some changes have taken place.
For the entire team, such a situation is inevitable. The ability to complete the adjustment shows that the team has made progress. It is also for this reason that Brooks’s expression did not continue to be calm.
The halftime time has come. This period of time has been a carnival time for New York Knicks home fans in the last two years. Generally, by this time, the New York Knicks are leading, and today is no exception. The New York Knicks are leading. There are a full 9 points, although this point difference has not yet reached their point difference law, but for this team, this point difference is enough to ensure that they have an advantage!
With an advantage, the fans at the scene are naturally in the mood to make a noise.
…
The Thunder returned to the visiting team’s locker room. Although their overall point difference was not widened after the adjustment, for this team, what they don’t want to see is that after they work hard, they are still behind. , Especially for Kevin Durant, before playing this game, what he had been thinking about was to win the game today, and his performance at the beginning of the first half was indeed very good. At that time, he felt His state is very good, but what he didn’t expect is that the Thunder would be overtaken behind in such a good start!
And in the second quarter, Yi Jianlian used the experience of the finals to actually complete their lead. This was something Kevin Durant did not expect. He originally thought it would be enough to pay the tuition once, but in the end he has to pay the tuition again today. This makes him uncomfortable.
Kevin Durant sat in his own position and said nothing. In fact, he scored very well today. He had already scored 18 points at the end of the first half. Such a score is very good for the Thunder team, which is still behind. It’s enough performance.
But because he is behind, Kevin Durant is still very uncomfortable. He doesn’t want to see such a situation happen-he scored high points, but the team lost.
This is not what he wants to see.
So when telling the whole story and walking towards the ending he didn’t want, he was a little unhappy!
No, in the second half, I must get the score back!
Kevin Durant said in his heart, his eyes became very determined.
…
The second half of the game officially began soon.
Amid the cheers of the home fans, Yi Jianlian and other New York Knicks’ main players slowly stepped onto the court.
They were more active during the intermission. Yi Jianlian listened to music for half an hour, while Tyson Chandler and the others chatted for a while.
D’Antoni didn’t even say any tactics.
In fact, the Knicks generally don’t talk about any tactics during the halftime. As far as the scores that this team leads, for any team, any tactic is inseparable from a word. A tactic that can lead is a good tactic. The New York team has already led so many points in the first half. Obviously, for this team, it is natural to continue to play in the first half, and since the best tactics are already being used. Now, what else do I need to say?
D’Antoni unknowingly became the most laid-back head coach in the league. Basically, he only needs to talk about the tactics in the training the day before the game, and then on the day of the game, there is no need to say too much, even During the intermission, he only needs to say something that still needs attention!
He doesn’t need to worry about other things at all.
Even for this team and for him, the whole tactics needless to say, just focus on Yi Jianlian!
So as soon as the second half came up, Yi Jianlian directly completed the first offense. The ball hit the basket twice and then fell directly into the basket.
As the ball went into the basket, there were huge cheers on the scene.
After this goal, the entire New York Knicks led by 11 points.
Such a difference naturally caused some screams!
Kevin Durant also quickly passed the ball at this time. Since he has made up his mind in the locker room, this game must not turn into a situation where he gets high points and the team loses. So after Yi Jianlian scored, He was naturally thinking about scoring by himself and catching up with the score as soon as possible.
“Huh!”
The ball rolled into the basket.
While Kevin Durant scored, the score difference returned to 9 points again.
He also secretly squeezed his fist, and he was naturally relieved to score a goal, because it means that his hand feels good. Since the hand feels good, it will naturally be more conducive to him to play a better game!
And the better his performance, he also believes that he can lead the Thunder to overtake.
However, when he scored a goal, he subconsciously glanced at Yi Jianlian. When he saw that the latter was also preparing to attack, he also became more focused!
He wants the team to get the score back, and if he wants to get the score back, there is a very important problem, that is, he has to overwhelm the opponent in scoring momentum in order to complete the chasing.
But for the New York Knicks with Yi Jianlian, it is not that simple to suppress their momentum!
This is a protracted battle.
And if you want to win this battle, the most important thing is to keep up with the opponent’s scoring rhythm.
At the same time, it can be seen from Yi Jianlian holding the ball and preparing for singles. The latter has the same mentality as him at this time. The latter also wants to use his scoring ability to help the team finish scoring and open up a bigger point difference.
However, Kevin Durant is not surprised, because he has played against Yi Jianlian so many times. He is very familiar with the way this team plays. This guy is like this. He always plays the whole ball. The team moved forward on his shoulders.
“Huh!”
Yi Jianlian arrived in the frontcourt. He didn’t hesitate to complete the shot on his own. The ball went to the basket again, and the point difference returned to 11 points again.
Even Kevin Durant, who is already a super scorer, is impressed by Yi Jianlian’s ease of scoring, because even he would never have thought that a player’s scoring ability could reach such a terrifying level.
What many people don’t know is that Kevin Durant has compared his scoring ability with Yi Jianlian’s scoring ability, because they are both long men over 2.11 meters but are playing small forwards and both have excellent scoring skills. Whether it’s a breakthrough or a layup, you can do it all at your fingertips.
It’s just that Yi Jianlian seems to be better than him no matter what.
Like him, Yi Jianlian was a rookie in 2007. This is their fifth season in the league. Just talking about these years, it must be that Yi Jianlian has made greater progress. He has grown up to now and has been very mature and experienced, even in the regular season, he can not play so hard!
The honors he has obtained so far are enough for many players to share, especially after experiencing some failures in the first two years of his career, he has never failed again. Up to now, he has made three finals in his career. , Excluding this time, he has already won the championship ring twice.
Kevin Durant himself admitted that he was too far away from Yi Jianlian, and it was for this reason that he had to chase Yi Jianlian. It was only in the process of chasing Yi Jianlian that he discovered that Yi Jianlian was really powerful.
In fact, ESPN commentator Cole has already said that Kevin Durant is a safety valve, anytime, when we need it, he can score.
However, after Kevin Durant saw Yi Jianlian’s entire scoring curve, he also had to admit that this guy may be the most powerful scorer on the planet.
He remembers that Barkley once commented on Yi Jianlian: “Whether he holds the ball, does not have the ball, or the low singles that have been abandoned in this era, Yi Jianlian can guarantee a very efficient level. Also, whether it is face frame, back frame, or low position. , High post, elbow zone, penalty zone, only Yi Jianlian is on the court, he can give opponents a great deterrent. He can change direction like a defender, and can perform low post skills like an inside line, just like a player made by a 2K game Perfect and unrealistic.”
Such a guy, in this case, easily completed his response to the ball, which made him a little bit more pressure.
Kevin Durant watched Yi Jianlian back on defense. He shook his head abruptly and cleared these thoughts from his entire brain. He said in his heart: Don’t be nervous, Kevin, play as usual, just like usual. Just go to finish the offense!
Kevin Durant’s eyes became calm again.
This is also the reason why Kevin Durant has achieved such a big growth. Although he admitted Yi Jianlian, he did not compromise because of this. In his dictionary, there have never been these two words. For him, perhaps Yi Jianlian is very He is powerful, but he has to surpass the latter, and only if he surpasses the latter can he be considered truly powerful.
He can only recognize that he is really successful.
He must admit that this is difficult to accomplish, but he must also admit that in the same era as a talented player like Yi Jianlian, he must bear such pressure, because only in this way can they complete the greatest degree of transformation and they will be able to defeat Yi Jianlian. Otherwise, Kevin Durant believes that Yi Jianlian can easily rule this alliance for several years.
After all, he knows too well what kind of player Yi Jianlian is!
But he also has something to be proud of, because, in the current league, there are only two teams that can force Yi Jianlian to go all out, one is the Heat!
Although they were eliminated 4-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals, everyone knows that Yi Jianlian played very seriously in that game, and there is naturally their Thunder team!
It can be seen from Yi Jianlian’s attitude that he also recognized their team and played so fiercely, because he knows that if the score is not opened as soon as possible, the game will be very anxious. The result will be uncertain!
So!
I can’t let you win the game so easily!
Kevin Durant is very motivated. The defender in front of him has been replaced by Yi Jianlian. Just as he just completed the goal, he also successfully attracted Yi Jianlian’s attention.
Only for him, this is the confrontation he wants.
All he wants is to confront Yi Jianlian head-on.
Unlike the previous game, Kevin Durant had already guessed that Yi Jianlian would have a physical confrontation with him this time, but he did not evade, but directly led him up.
Just when the body was about to touch, he suddenly pulled the ball backwards, and once again pulled away from Yi Jianlian, and moved to the right side at the same time. Then, he jumped up high, regardless of Yi Jianlian’s reaction. , He shot directly!
Yi Jianlian didn’t seem to expect that Kevin Durant would be so decisive in this ball. He used to observe his distance before daring to make a shot. Today, he didn’t even look at him and just finished the shot. Yi Jianlian didn’t expect it.
The ball Kevin Durant also successfully made it into the frame, no matter how much he made such a decisive shot, the whole shot was smooth and flowing, and it was natural that the ball fell into the frame very smoothly!
Kevin Durant narrowed the difference back to 9 points again, and he secretly clenched his fists again, but at the same time his expression became excited.
Yi Jianlian stared at him like this for a moment, but he quickly reacted. The bigger and the more excited this guy is!
This is something Yi Jianlian did not expect!
However, it is normal for a player like Kevin Durant to appear under heavy pressure. After the accident, he rekindled his fighting spirit.
He knows that this game will be very difficult to play in the next time, but for him, to meet such an excited Kevin Durant, for him, it is a thing that can be met but not desired!
This game is really getting more and more interesting!
