Chapter 462 A Little Disgraceful (Second)

Kevin Durant has always had a knot, that is, he has always been compared with LeBron James, and has always been lower than James.

James is the No. [-] pick, he is the second, James is all-round, he is just a super scorer, James' Nike rookie contract history is the first, and he is the second.

James almost takes the record of being the youngest in all statistics, and Durant generally follows closely behind. Who made him play in college for an extra year?

As a small forward, James is the number one in people's eyes, while Durant can only be the second small forward, and the outside world believes that he will be the second for a long, long time.

For a basketball player, second is the most unbearable position.

If you are third, eighth, or tenth, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, I only have this strength, and basketball is not one-on-one. My personal ability is not as good as yours, and my team is worse than yours. I can win the championship.

But when it comes to the first and second positions, you have to fight, and no one wants to be the second.

Durant's game has been improving, especially his offensive ability.

But his comprehensiveness has always been criticized by the outside world. From the beginning of his rookie season with unlimited shots, he was considered only a scorer.

In the season when he averaged 30 points per game and won the scoring title, he averaged only 2.8 assists per game.

The number of assists basically means that every time he encounters double-teams, he distributes the ball to his teammates, and his teammates throw one in, which counts as an assist.

It is an assist without much organization and coping ability. That year, James' data was 29 points, 7 rebounds and 8.6 assists. He supported all the Cavaliers' offenses by himself and won the regular season MVP.

Of course, James has James' troubles. His style of play and the Cavaliers lineup can't win the championship.

James' eyes have been looking forward, towards a more ambitious goal, towards the superstars in history, to pursue.

And Durant only has James' back in his eyes. He has to surpass James first, right?

This season, Durant started the season trying to increase his support and organizational skills.

Therefore, at the beginning of each game, Durant will pass the ball more and use his defensive appeal to create opportunities for his teammates.

But it can only be said that Durant really has no talent in passing organization, and his passing is too straightforward.

It belongs to the kind that can be seen through quickly by defenders.

If you pass it once, it's fine, and if you do the same routine again, the defender will not be easily fooled.

Ricky Davis saw through Durant's poor passing intention and successfully helped the Clippers counterattack successfully.

Durant was obviously in a panic. Is it easy to go back to being an all-around fighter?

To expose me so quickly?Don't pretend, I'm actually a scorer!

Durant made a gesture towards Westbrook, and directly received the ball at a 45-degree waist after halftime.

Facing Ricky Davis, pull back and shoot!
With Durant's height and wingspan, he also shot with a little backward.

Whether he can get in or not depends entirely on his own touch. It's useless whether you can prevent it or not.

The ball hits it right!
After the goal, Durant glared at Ricky Davis.

This small-minded person will take revenge immediately after being cut off.

The Clippers still went inside, and Curry didn't just throw it around because he made a three-pointer.

The low post was given to Randolph. Randolph faced Perkins and chose a mid-range shot from the basket after the sigma step.

The ball was short and missed.

At the transition of offense and defense, Thunder no longer tried, but launched a quick counterattack!
Durant received the ball, broke through the middle, and attracted three double-teams.

Once again, the ball was given to Ibaka on the wing.

Ibaka catches the ball and makes a mid-range jumper, and hits it again!
Durant still has to pass the ball, he just wants to prove that his organizational skills are okay.

Durant's show isn't over yet.

Curry saw the intensity of the game coming up, and he also quickly held the ball across the half.

Fake shots from outside the three-point line, fake moves, and forcefully rush to the basket!
But the Thunder's defensive flanking was timely, double-teaming, and Curry passed the ball out to Gasol.

But the pass was not good, it was too slow, and it was intercepted by Durant.

Durant counterattacked one-stop, reached the basket and scored with two-handed dunks!
At 10:5, the Thunder took the lead at the start.

It can be seen that Durant is in very good form this time.

And there is a ruthless spirit of revenge.

After the dunk, Durant stared at Ricky Davis.

Looking down condescendingly, the trash talking in his mouth didn't stop.

Ricky Davis certainly wasn't easy to bully.

The two fought at the bottom line.

The referee blew his whistle quickly to prevent the conflict from developing further.

"This Durant is really arrogant... This game is full of gunpowder. No, I will go down to watch it in the third quarter later!"

Min Congda sat in the VIP room, watching the game with Anschutz and Ballmer.

Things have been settled, and the feeling of watching the game in the VIP room is not as good as being on the sidelines.

Moreover, Min Congda felt that the confrontation in this game would be fierce.

At that time, there may be a chance of fines, which is incomparable to VIP rooms.

Therefore, Min Congda decided to watch the first half in the VIP room.

When the gunpowder smell is stronger in the second half, go down and argue with Durant.

At that time, I will scold the referee and get a ticket to be happy.

At this time, the Clippers' offensive ball was given to Harden.

Harden faced his former owner Thunder last season and was often defended miserably.

In the absence of Sefolosha in this game, Harden faced former Clippers guard Gordon.

The two people are about the same size and height, so they can just match each other.

Harden used a simple pick-and-roll screen to find space, after a continuous dribble on the left crotch, he broke through and pulled, and made a mid-range jumper with a step back and hit!
Harden's step-back is not particularly proficient, but he has a good shooting touch tonight, and his shots are also unexpected, scoring two points.

Durant, Harden, and Curry all scored, and it was Westbrook's turn to stand up.

In the next round, Westbrook stood up, still a pick and roll, holding the ball and rushing from the right!

The Clippers immediately shrunk their defense inside, and Randolph and Gasol assembled under the basket.

Two high walls blocked Westbrook, and Westbrook also chose to pass the ball!
Jump up and make room for the corner!
The bottom corner is really empty, there is no Clippers defender.

But there are no Thunderbolts either!

The ball passed directly out of the sideline and onto the Clippers bench!

Tyronn Lue received the ball with a dazed expression.

"Why is the ball still passed to me? Do I want to take a shot?"

Tyronn Luby swiped his shot and finally returned the ball to the referee.

There was laughter at the scene, and the atmosphere of Staples was full of joy.

The camera was shown to Westbrook, who looked serious and obviously felt a little embarrassed.

Min Congda covered his face even more while watching in the private room, "Hey, with Westbrook here, it's really hard to say whether the Thunder can stop the Clippers in the future!"

 I accidentally sent out the first update earlier yesterday...
