Chapter 187 Gratitude and Resentment

Chapter 187 The Thanksgiving Game (9000-word chapter)
On November 11st, the back-to-back trip of the away game ended. The Thunder returned to Oklahoma City. Back-to-back games were played well. In addition, the coaching staff gave the players another day off before Thanksgiving. Two home games before Thanksgiving, The schedule is relatively relaxed, which also allows everyone to have a good rest.

When he woke up again, he saw Annie blinking her big eyes and looking at him with a smile on her face, as if she was saying, dear, are you tired? One, and then said in a muffled voice:

"I'm hungry, Anne! What's for breakfast?"

Annie pushed Li Ze, who was buried in her chest, and said helplessly:
"Your house in Oklahoma City is like an apartment hotel. I didn't have time to check what ingredients were in your refrigerator last night. Remember when you promised me to go to the premiere of my friend's movie? On Thanksgiving The day before, these few days I have to help you tidy up!"

"Schedule for Thanksgiving? The producer is very confident in the quality of the film. You seem to have lost weight again. Eat more with me these few days."

Li Ze hugged the black-haired sister Yu in his arms tightly, and said caringly in the other's ear.

"It's not that I have confidence in the quality of the film, but that there was a small accident during the filming and it was forced to be postponed. Anyway, it's just an ordinary popcorn movie. Don't expect too much."

Annie patted the big hand on her waist, gave Li Ze a charming look, left the big bed, moved her body, and introduced the name of the movie to Li Ze by the way.

""Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief"? Fantasy movie? Hearing the name, I feel that the box office is average. Your friend is the heroine in the play?"

There are too many bad movies of America, Li Ze has no impression of this movie at all, and after hearing Annie's introduction, he couldn't help asking curiously.

"Yeah, the heroine in a vase in Hollywood movies, with big breasts and no brains, she plays in her true colors! Pretty boy, do you want to take a bath together?"

As soon as Li Ze heard this address, and saw Annie's teasing expression, the corners of his mouth twitched. The blond sister was really broken, and she posted a lot of funny photos with him on INS.

Fortunately, during this period of time, Shakira is busy promoting the album and going on a world tour, and Britney Spears has been doing presentations with the campaign office set up by her father. Otherwise, the video calls of these few people would have kept Li Ze busy. Come
Seeing Annie hooking his hands provocatively at him, Li Ze immediately stood up and carried her on his shoulders, causing the other party to exclaim and go straight to the bathroom. It is necessary to increase some confrontation, and let the black-haired Yujie know the provocation his consequences.

"Oh! Haha, Pretty boy!"

On November 11, the Thunder will host the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight. The Timberwolves sent away Al Jefferson this offseason and selected Wesley with the fourth overall pick in the draft. Johnson, by the way, also acquired Michael Beasley from the Heat.

If you only look at the draft picks of the Timberwolves' starting lineup, it is absolutely gorgeous. All four are lottery picks. Darko Milicic and Michael Beasley are the second picks. Wesley Johnson and Love They are the 4th and 5th picks respectively, and the talents of several people are beyond the charts!

But it's a pity that this lineup is useless, the offense is okay, and the defense is to give. So far, they have only achieved a record of 3 wins and 11 losses. The most important thing is that the ball is not enough.
At noon, Li Ze and Guigui entertained their good brother Le Fu at the steakhouse in Oklahoma City. Seeing that the other party was still chubby, Li Ze laughed and joked:
"Participating in the World Championships in Turkey during the offseason failed to make you lose weight. It seems that the confrontation in the World Championships is not enough!"

"It's all the old Coach K's fault, who made me sit on the bench frequently, throwing towels for too little consumption! Congratulations, Kayce, I like the song "Radioactive", which is much more exciting than your previous songs!"

Le Fu first teased himself, and then congratulated Li Ze on the performance of his latest single. This song "Radioactive" was released in a low-key manner on November 11. It broke into the top 15 of the billboard again in less than a week. In short, it is Qian Tu It's bright.

"Love, have you reached an early contract extension agreement with the Timberwolves? Ted told me that there may be some additional clauses after that, and you'd better not sign the contract right away."

Guigui quickly got to the point. The main purpose of entertaining Lefu today is about the contract. Everyone should communicate in advance and share the information they have.

"Of course I won't sign the contract at this time. If there is a major change in the labor agreement, it will be a big loss! But I don't think the league will be suspended for too long. Everyone wants to make money. There are fewer games. It's a lose-lose decision."

Love is planning to take the route of taking the money and taking the money, and his agent also gave advice. In order to make more money, there is no rush to renew the contract in advance.

"It's right to wait. If the agreement changes at that time, the time for early renewal will also be postponed. What we have to do is to play well and get good statistics while winning!"

Li Ze is also not sure whether some additional clauses will appear as scheduled in his future memory, but if he wants to win a big contract, the data must be passable.

"It's Kayce's luck. I won't have so many troubles when I think about the contract next season. Hey! If only the three of us could be in the first team, then I don't have to worry about the data."

Li Ze heard Love's words, and then thought of Beasley's performance in the Timberwolves, he could only sigh secretly in his heart:
"Scrutinizing data is also a technical job. It seems that with Beasley, Love's possession of the ball is still affected. It's not easy to be a double-double machine."

Thanksgiving is approaching, and the Thunder have recently held a lot of activities to give back to fans. Tonight's game, the halftime event has also been changed to the theme of Thanksgiving, and the Ford Center Arena is also full of spectators early.

This game was only broadcast locally in Oklahoma City, so Annie, who has always been low-key, also came to the arena tonight to cheer for Li Ze on the spot. She wore canvas shoes, jeans, a light blue shirt, and a black casual suit jacket. Annie directly and Li Ze Wearing a couple outfit.

The on-site director also frequently pointed the camera at the black-haired Yujie, and Amelia also looked at her face!And Annie also looked graceful when facing the camera. Not only did she hug Li Ze before the game, but she also greeted Guigui and Lefu.

Seeing this situation, Te Wen, the home commentator, took the opportunity to laugh and tease Li Ze:
"Kayce should thank the NBA for the arrangement. He should be thankful that tonight is not a nationally broadcast game!"

Before the game, in the locker room of the Thunder, Coach Brooks was telling his players that due to Durant’s injury, Li Ze will be the No. bit.

"Kevin will be injured for at least a week. During this period, we must cheer up. Our goal this season is to get the first place in the Western Conference and establish our own home court advantage in the playoffs, so every Every game has to be taken seriously.”

"Just like in training, Kayce plays the third position. Our offensive tactics remain the same, but on the defensive end, we must pay attention to retraction. After all, our height has dropped. At the same time, we must pay attention to the protection of rebounds in the backcourt. The Timberwolves rebounded very well."

"I hope everyone can get two victories before Thanksgiving. This may be the best gift for Acheng fans!"

"Aw! Wan, spit, break, felling tired!"

After the fiery entrance ceremony, the NBA also awarded Li Ze the Player of the Week Award from November 11th to 14th. Although the simple crystal trophy in his hand aroused his desire to complain again, on the surface Li Ze But with a smile on his face, he held up the trophy and kept paying tribute to the fans on the scene.

"Thank you for your support! This award belongs to all of us! I will continue to work hard and help the team win!"

Hearing Li Ze's words, the Oklahoma City fans at the scene were also very supportive, and directly sent huge cheers for Li Ze:

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

When the two teams were doing the final warm-up before the game, Li Ze smiled in his heart while moving his body;
"Durant is injured, and the team has become a dual-core team. In these few games, we must strive to impress everyone. The MVP selection depends on the votes of reporters. Impression points are very important!"

However, after playing for more than 1 minutes in the first quarter, the Thunder team was in trouble, and there were still problems on the offensive end. Sefolosha's defense was very good, but this one can be regarded as a refusal to shoot, and he played for half a quarter. In the game, the offensive space on the field has always been difficult to open.

Fortunately, the Timberwolves' defense is not very good. The superficial brother Beasley who was facing Li Ze disappeared after a few screens, so the current score is 18:14. The Thunder team is 4 points behind. Showed his dominance in the paint.

Jeff Green hates playing against fat players, but Love likes Jeff Green's defense very much. After the opening, he attacked in the low post and hit all three-pointers from the outside.

As soon as Li Ze saw that his teammates were not able to fire from outside, he immediately made a tactical gesture to Guigui, indicating that he would switch to pick-and-roll tactics in the next few minutes. Darko Milicic's defense naturally followed the line.

Then notice the small guard Sebastian Telfair behind him, Turtle does not attack blindly, after all, Love is huddled inside waiting for him, and directly gives the ball to Kostic on the three-point line , while running to the left corner, taking away the defensive Sebastian Telfair.

Li Ze quickly moved from the left flank beyond the three-point line to the top of the arc. After receiving a hand-off pass from Krstic, he accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand. Wesley Johnson saw that Beasley's defense was slow After a shot, just as he was about to move over to help defend, he saw Li Ze make a jump shot at the free throw line.
"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"what!!"

The Oklahoma City fans at the scene began to cheer for Li Ze's goal. This is the offense they want to see, and the battle is resolved within 14 seconds.

After playing half a quarter of the ball, Li Ze also thoroughly figured out the Timberwolves' defensive strategy. The opponent basically gave up on Jeff Green's perimeter defense and kept a big player near the paint to prevent turtles from breaking through.

At the same time, Beasley and Wesley Johnson properly double-teamed Li Ze and disrupted the Thunder's offensive rhythm. This tactic is an improved version used by the Celtics. Coach Kurt Rambis Still very thoughtful.

The Timberwolves in the tailwind, everyone is brave on the offensive end. Luke Ridnour and Corey Brewer, who came off the bench, also performed exceptionally well, hitting consecutive shots. At the end of halftime, 64:58, the Timberwolves The team led by 6 points.

During the intermission, in the Thunder locker room, Coach Brooks was very calm, just reminding his players:
"Guys, the third quarter is very critical. Our offense may have a little problem, but we can solve the problem with defense, press them, show our mobility, and use defense to contain the opponent's offense."

"Ibaka, you go on the field first in the second half and do a good job of defending the inside. We will get the score back in the third quarter!"

In the third quarter of the game, the Thunder took the lead in attacking. Li Ze in the three-second zone quickly bounced out through the off-ball screen of Jeff Green and Krstic. After receiving the pass from the turtle, he noticed that Beasley The defense had just rotated in place, and he directly broke through with the ball in his left hand.

Just as Beasley slid back, he found that Li Ze suddenly dribbled back and pulled back, then made a double retreat and shot a jumper from outside the three-point line.

"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.

"Sir! Didn't the ball move? He took two steps back in an instant!"

However, the linesman ignored Beasley's complaints, and the game continued. After the Timberwolves attacked, Beasley seemed to want to respond to the ball after receiving the pass. He noticed that Li Ze's defensive position put his left hand , Beasley immediately accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand.

But on the defensive end, Li Ze was well prepared. As soon as the opponent broke through, he would stick to the side of the defense. After dribbling through the free throw line, he instantly strengthened his defensive aggression.

"Snapped!"

After stabbing the ball in Beasley's hand, Li Ze didn't stick to the ball. He saw that the tortoise was about to go down, and quickly threw the ball with his right hand, directly throwing the ball to the frontcourt. Tomahawk dunk!
"what!!"

The counterattack dunk after the steal ignited the atmosphere at home. The Timberwolves quickly sent the ball to the baseline. First, it passed the outside line several times, and then gave the ball to Love on the free throw line. After the high and low coordination, he quickly gave the ball to the paint area Darko Milicic.

The latter catches the ball and faces Kostic’s defense, hits the ball with his right hand, quickly turns around and joins the ball, carries Kostic away with his body, and throws the ball with his left hand, but just as the ball is released, a big hand appears above .

"Snapped!"

Li Ze, who shrank the defense, directly sent out the pegboard cap. Ibaka controlled the ball and passed it to the turtle. The Thunder team quickly launched a conversion attack. Wesley Johnson, who was chasing him, had no time to watch the situation behind him.

Seeing the turtle jumping up for a layup, Wesley Johnson immediately followed suit, but found that the ball was flying to the right and rear. Just after he landed, he turned his head and saw Li Ze catching the ball with one hand in the air. Pull, followed by a powerful one-arm dunk!

"Kang" the dunk was successful.

"what!!"

The wonderful alley-oop cooperation made the audience in the Ford Center Arena scream happily. After landing, Li Zexian and the turtle bumped their chests to celebrate, then applauded enthusiastically, and loudly signaled his teammates to continue to defend.

"Good job! Keep defending!"

Afterwards, the Thunder, which overtook the score, took off in an instant, showing the defensive strength of a playoff team. The Timberwolves did not score a point within 3 minutes of defense, and also established an 8-point lead.

The Timberwolves, who played against the wind, failed to respond at this time, and the defensive end suddenly lost power, and the game was over.
106:117, relying on the high-intensity defense in the second half, the Thunder played a hearty offense again and successfully defended the home court.

Li Ze once again scored 28 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block in this game. Turtle also scored 24 points. Other teammates also woke up in the second half. Be happy!
"I thought I could beat you tonight! You guys have become so good on the defensive end, remember to be merciful next time and don't help me defend again!"

Le Fu laughed and hugged Li Ze while laughing at himself for losing.

"You exploded our interior tonight, 24 points and 17 rebounds, a double-double machine! Come on, Bro! Try to reach the playoffs this season."

On November 11rd, after the training session in the afternoon, Li Ze had just returned home when he saw Annie, who had always been calm, trying on clothes one by one. This scene made Li Ze very interesting:
"We don't need to walk the red carpet, we don't need to deliberately dress up, you are already beautiful Annie, don't steal your friend's limelight!"

"This is the friendship between women. We have been competing since we were young. Don't talk about this, come and help me!"

Annie, who is wearing a black tube top dress, is showing amazing charm. With her fair skin and flaming red lips, people can't take their eyes off. Li Ze hugged the black sister Yu tightly from behind, and whispered to her ear. said in a voice:

"We still have a lot of time, don't forget that we can fly directly there tonight, and we will be there in just over 2 hours!"

Annie immediately sent a sweet kiss, then threw herself into Li Ze's arms, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for the private jet, but we still have to keep changing, Kayce, I don't want to be compared to her, how about this black dress?"

"Beautiful! Let me take a closer look"

The premiere of "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief" was held at Lincoln Center in New York City. Li Ze also rarely put on a dark blue suit. When he and Annie appeared on the scene, 0:[-] The movie is about to start.

While pinching Li Ze, Annie greeted her friend with a smile:
"Alex, you are so beautiful tonight. I am looking forward to seeing your performance in the movie. You have fulfilled our childhood dreams."

When Li Ze saw the two hugging and chattering endlessly, just when he was feeling bored, the tall, choppy black-haired girl in front of him, wearing a black and white patterned tube top dress, suddenly said:
"Kayce, Annie mentioned you to me a long time ago. I have wanted to know you for a long time. You look much more handsome than in the photo. No wonder Annie is so fascinated!"

It was only when Li Ze and the turbulent black-haired girl in front of him looked at each other that he realized that the other had such blue eyes. After looking at each other, it was absolutely impressive.

"Excited to be at your premiere, hope it's a hit at the box office!"

"Alexandra Daddario, my name is a bit long, just call me Alex like Annie, thank you for being here tonight."

Li Ze and the other party hugged each other politely. Seeing Annie on the side showing a look of keeping a distance, Li Ze smiled lightly. After the three had a chat, Annie walked into the screening room with Li Ze on her arm.

"Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief" is a typical popcorn movie. If Li Ze had to choose, he would never watch such a boring movie. The logic of the whole movie makes people feel powerless to complain. Out of Li Ze's disinterest, he immediately whispered in his ear:

"After the screening, I'll introduce you to Alex's family, be steady, and trust me, Uncle Richard can be a big help sometimes in New York or Los Angeles."

"Don't worry! I know how to measure, I will behave well!"

When Annie heard Li Ze's words, she pinched Li Ze's weakness again with her little hand, and then said in a low voice:

"Keep a good distance from Alex. They are all lawyers. Don't be fooled by her appearance. She has big breasts, but she is not brainless!"

"."

On November 11th, the Thanksgiving Day battle of the NBA League will also be held as scheduled. As the highlight of Thanksgiving Day, ESPN will broadcast the Thunder's game against the Dallas Mavericks at home.

This Thanksgiving schedule was chosen to be broadcast live across the United States. Naturally, it was also because the Thunder swept the Mavericks in the playoffs last season. This kind of game must have some gunpowder, and the fans of Amerika will like it.

Compared with last season, the Mavericks successfully strengthened the interior during the offseason, sent away Dampier, and ushered in the interior defensive gate Tyson Chandler. Also achieved a record of 9 wins and 4 losses.

Coach Carlisle may have been influenced by Li Ze's butterfly. Since last season, he has changed many Mavericks' tactics, making the entire team more dependent on three-pointers.

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, the atmosphere at the Ford Center Arena tonight is extremely hot, but unfortunately, the seats are limited. Even though a lot of seats have been added, it still cannot satisfy all Oklahoma City fans.

The game is about to start, the scene is already full of noise, DJ's music, dancing fans, and even a lot of spectators who are just drinking and screaming. Such a scene is also a bit silly. The ESPN broadcast booth three people.

The commentator Mike Breen said to the two guests around him after wowing a few times:
"The Mavericks have been getting better in the last few games. Tyson Chandler seems to be gradually adapting to the team's system. What do you two think of tonight's game?"

"I think the absence of Kevin will cause some troubles for the Thunder. I replayed the last game between the Thunder and the Timberwolves. If the Thunder didn't feel good on the outside at the start, the Mavericks could even directly defend a 23 zone defense. They You only need to focus on defending Li alone."

Mark Jackson heard what Jeff Van Gundy said, nodded in agreement, and then added:
"I give the Mavericks 8 points for their offseason operations. The arrival of Tyson Chandler can completely liberate Nowitzki on the defensive end, and the Mavericks' rebounds have also been strongly guaranteed. We all know that the protection is good. Backcourt rebounds are the only way to get a chance to switch."

"So everyone is optimistic about the Mavericks? I think the Thunder have a great chance. Sefolosha is a very good perimeter defender. Just like the last game, the Thunder may be able to continue on the perimeter. Try to defend high."

Mike Breen had just spoken halfway, and Jeff Van Gundy immediately said:
"I completely agree with your point of view, so this is a close game. Tonight's victory or defeat can only be determined by the impromptu performance of the players on both sides!"

The commentator Mike Brin was speechless, he was blocked at both ends!

"."

Naturally, the Mavericks had no grudges with the Thunder before. After all, one of them belongs to the Southwest Division and the other belongs to the Northwest Division. The two teams don’t often play against each other in a season. It’s just that last season’s playoffs completely changed the situation of the two teams. .

The Western Conference semifinals were swept away. Naturally, such a result made everyone in the Mavericks very angry. In addition, the two teams did not make large-scale lineup adjustments during the offseason. After the start of tonight's game, there was a bit of sparks flying around. .

Just over two minutes into the first quarter, Li Ze caught the ball with his back and faced Marion's defense. He quickly released the ball with his right hand. The realistic fake moves directly shook Marion.

Marion realized that he had been shaken away, and hit Li Ze's arm hard when he fell in the air.

"Crack!" Lianren dribbled the ball and hit it together.
After Li Ze was knocked off the ball by the opponent, he immediately stepped forward and gave Marion a hard push, almost pushing the opponent over.

"Hey boy! I'm just a regular foul! You need to show respect to the veteran!"

"Come on, man! You just feel ashamed of being shoved away, trust me, you will still be shoved later!"

The referee acted quickly and pulled the two away. The players on both sides talked for a while, and the fans in Oklahoma City followed suit. The scene became full of gunpowder in an instant.

Li Ze stood on the free throw line, took a deep breath, and made two free throws steadily. After the opening, the Mavericks used 23 defenses. This defensive strategy was obviously prepared for Li Ze.

Jason Kidd on the line, Sean Marion on the counter, and Tyson Chandler near the paint area, the three of them kept a close eye on Li Ze, which made Li Ze very depressed after the opening game , It is very difficult to catch the ball at the waist every time.

When the first half of the game was over, the Mavericks led by 1 points at 16:12. When the official timeout came back, the Thunder directly took Ibaka to improve the quality of screens and strengthen the protection of backcourt rebounds. .

In this game, Nowitzki also worked hard. After a timeout, the Mavericks attacked. After seeing Ibaka play, because of the time, he directly asked for the ball with his back in the low post. After receiving a lob pass from Kidd, after a simple three-threat , A dry pull-back jumper shot.

"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"Shhh!!"

The audience at the Ford Center Arena naturally also noticed the fiery state of Nowitzki in the first quarter. The opponent currently made 1 shots. exert pressure.

The Thunder team attacked, and the turtles failed to make a few inside shots at the beginning of the game. The team fell behind. This time, after halftime, they directly gave the ball to Li Ze, and noticed that Marion in front of him had lowered his defensive focus very much. Low, Li Ze immediately signaled Ibaka to put up the pick-and-roll.

Seeing that Marion's attention was diverted, his body was swaying to the left, and he made a quick probing step, and then exerted force on his feet, holding the ball in his right hand to break through with a cross step. Li Ze's first step was fast and fierce, and Marion The defense subconsciously slid back.

Li Ze, who took a step, noticed that Tyson Chandler's defense was in place. He dribbled the ball behind his back quickly with his right hand, instantly changing the rhythm of the attack. Marion's defensive center instantly moved forward and directly blocked.

Li Ze quickly changed direction with his left hand, and then exerted force with his feet, ignoring Marion's jump to block the block, and still steadily completed his retreat, and shot quickly from outside the three-point line.

"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.

"Wonderful goal! Lee successfully read the Mavericks' defense, and used the step-back to shoot, easily creating shooting space, perfect offense!"

Jeff Van Gundy suddenly sped up his speech and sent compliments to Li Ze, which also made Mike Brin next to him a little depressed, until the "Bang" on his lips didn't come out.
"Roar!"

The Oklahoma City fans at the scene saw that Li Ze finally hit a three-pointer, and immediately shouted excitedly. The game was a bit dull. Dividing the ball really solved the urgent need.

The offensive feel from the perimeter was so-so, which made everyone in the Thunder team start to strengthen their defense. Guigui, Sefoloza, and Li Ze expanded their defensive area, trying to use oppressive defense to cut off the Mavericks' internal and external connections.

However, the existence of Nowitzki has made it impossible for everyone in the Thunder to solve this problem. Ibaka's defense still cannot limit the opponent.

By the end of the first quarter, at 1:30, the Mavericks in the away game successfully led by 26 points.

The head coach of Carlisle also seems to want to take a breath. This game directly used a short rotation. In the second quarter of the game, Barea and Jason Terry came off the bench. Didn't even get a chance to play
And everyone in the Thunder team also got a little bit of energy. Except for Collison replacing Krstic, the other starters continued to play.

The Thunder started chasing points, and the Mavericks responded. Turtle took advantage of Collison's pick-and-roll, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, and against Tyson Chandler's defense, changed hands in the air and scored the ball. opportunity for punishment.

Looking back, Jason Terry of the Mavericks used Tyson Chandler's pick-and-roll to briefly get rid of Sefolosha's entanglement, and made a jumper from outside the three-point line to score the ball.

The Thunder sent out the baseline ball quickly, Li Ze quickly dribbled across the half court, Marion chose to stick to the defense directly outside the three-point line, Li Ze protected the ball with his back, and after shaking his shoulders confusingly, he quickly lowered his body's center of gravity and accelerated with the ball in his right hand Breakthrough, just one step past the three-point line, quickly step down and pull back.

The right hand pretended to join the ball, a fake action of praying to Buddha, and once again opened Marion's defense, the left hand quickly changed direction in front of the body, and then made a mid-range jump shot.

"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"I said so! I'll rock you again! I can score easily!"

After scoring, Li Ze immediately babbled trash talk to Marion. Seeing this situation, the line referee hurriedly blew his whistle to warn the two of them.

"WOW! I love the matchup! What a great Easter fight!"

ESPN commentator Mike Breen on the sidelines watched the excitement, and even praised Li Ze's trash talk.
Although the score was still behind, the Oklahoma City fans on the scene were about to go berserk, and everyone began to shout frantically for the home team's defense:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

In the following game, the two sides fell into a defensive battle. The Mavericks continued to use their second and third defenses to limit Li Ze's performance, while the Thunder used their outside defense to force the Mavericks to give the ball to the inside.

Under coach Brooks' continuous chicken soup, the Thunder's defense has always been strong, and at the end of the game, relying on the turtle's free throws, successfully tied the score, 105:105, 46 seconds of game time, both fouls Accumulated to the penalty state.

Theoretically, the two teams each have an attack. During the timeout, Carlisle's head coach loudly reminded his players:
"Hey! Stay awake, don't be affected by the atmosphere of the scene, the opponent has already reached the penalty state! We have enough time to attack, listen, launch an attack in about 14 seconds, and set a cover for Dirk!"

Nowitzki panted heavily, wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, and immediately nodded to signal that he was ready.

The Oklahoma City fans at the scene could only loudly cheer for the home team's defense:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

After the Mavericks sent out the frontcourt sideline ball, Kidd calmly directed his teammates to set up. With about 12 seconds left in the attack time, Nowitzki and Tyson Chandler made a cross screen. Successfully catches the ball in the waist.

Facing Ibaka's defense, after three threats, he quickly released the ball with his right hand. After taking two steps into the paint area, he turned around and joined the ball, making a huge golden chicken independent backward jumper.

"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"Oh!!"

"My God!!"

The Oklahoma City fans at the scene let out a huge exclamation, and at the same time, everyone in the Mavericks team began to celebrate wildly, and then everyone found that the Thunder team did not request a timeout at all, and directly sent the baseline ball quickly.

Coach Brooks kept gesticulating on the sidelines and shouted excitedly:

"Kayce!! Go catch the ball! Go catch the ball!"

The Mavericks celebrated everyone's haste to stop, and everyone quickly took the defensive position. At this time, the initiative was completely in the hands of the Thunder. With a two-point lead, the Mavericks did not dare to foul easily.

After halftime, Li Zeyun dribbled the ball directly from the crotch at a position far away from the three-point line, which wasted time. He understood what Coach Brooks meant. The timeout was called to let him catch the ball at this point in the game. Anyway, he threw it away.
At this time, the Ford Center Arena has become a little quiet, and all the fans are watching Li Ze's last attack.

With 10 seconds left in the game, Li Ze adjusted his breathing, faced Marion's defense, started directly away from the three-point line, dribbled the ball with his right hand, and quickly changed direction in front of him.

Marion already faintly felt something was wrong, he was desperately sticking to the defense, trying to interfere with Li Ze's offensive rhythm, the two could even feel each other's breathing.
At this time, Li Ze lowered his body's center of gravity very low. With his left hand, he quickly turned his crotch backwards, exerted force directly on his feet, and took a step away from the left three-point line to shoot a jumper.

"buzz"

"Kayce! Step back! For the win! YSE!! YES!!"

In ESPN's commentary booth, Mike Brin was already screaming with excitement.

The final lights are on and the three-pointer is hollowed into the net
"what!!"

Huge cheers erupted in the Ford Center arena immediately, and the Oklahoma City fans all subconsciously stood up and yelled, and the teammates on the bench hugged together without waiting for Li Ze to pretend to be X.

Li Ze only felt that there were more and more arms on his body, and he just wanted to shout at this moment:
"Let me pretend to be an X!"
