NBA: The Talent Burst from the Start

Brother, what do you have to worry about? Together we can be invincible.

After realizing Durant's nervousness, Howard's tone on the phone was still very unrestrained.

And the voice on his side became more and more noisy:

"Are you really unsure about coming? Hang up if you don't come, I'm going to play! 35

After saying this, Howard hung up the phone without giving Durant time to reflect.

In other words, he was afraid that Durant would continue to speak, but he would go back to practice and so on. Thinking about this kind of thing was annoying.

What's more, Howard has just signed a big contract. After this kind of contract is signed, it is natural to be happy and happy.

For Howard's behavior, Durant didn't know what to say for a while.

Because for now, the partnership between him and Howard looks like Howard is the boss of the team.

Because Howard's time into the league is obviously longer.

And Howard has also reached the finals of the league, and is also known as the strongest inside player in this era, and can be replaced by the presence of James.

Although Durant's offensive ability is more abundant than before, his scoring efficiency is also higher.

But he is not yet in the future death state.

Naturally speaking, there are not as many as Howard.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Howard's behavior, Durant didn't say much.

He had no choice but to sigh leisurely, and silently came to the arena and started various exercises.

Durant began to practice alone in the middle of the night, which is indeed an unexpected point.

But in a sense, it also shows how fierce the competition in the current league is.

Competitiveness is more difficult than ever as stars begin to play together as teams.

Even the Heat have stepped up their training this season. When there are no games, everyone will get together to discuss various tactics and improve cooperation at the same time.

It can be said that the current league looks intense enough on the surface.

But in fact, everyone's level of competition is no less than that in the 1980s and 1990s, that is, the bull period.

On the other hand, the game between the Lakers and the Thunder continues.

It can be said that with Westbrook's sudden strength, the Thunder instantly became much stronger than before.

The scary thing about Westbrook is that it is not only very physically strong, but also a good player in connecting the team.

When Westbrook faced Beverley's frenzied defense, he often pretended to make the breakthrough.

When Beverley is thrown away and other players come up to defend, they will pass the ball to other teammates.

Although James Harden is not in good shape, his mid-range shooting is quite good. When there is no one in front of him, his shooting efficiency is also as high as 60% or more.

So in the second quarter, as the Thunder team's Gemini side suddenly found a state, the Lakers side was a little bit confused.

Although the cooperation between them was very good, they couldn't stand the Thunder's desperate attack.

Artest is also getting older, and the more he fights back, the less his physical fitness can keep up.

As for the inside Paul Gasol, he has to face the breakthroughs of James Harden and Westbrook on the outside.

At the same time, there is also a very strong Ibaka who is also struggling to cope.

・・Seeking flowers.........

At the end of the second quarter, the score between the two sides came to 37:29, and the Lakers were 9 points behind.

Everyone is naturally dissatisfied with this result. Artest played for 21 minutes in the first half and only rested for a short three minutes.

And Beverley, who was in charge of defending the perimeter, hardly took a break, although his physical fitness was a little bit behind,

But Beverley was also muttering in the process of going off the court, and he was a little dissatisfied with the team's performance.

In fact, losing 9 points is already a very dangerous thing. If you grit your teeth, you may catch up in the blink of an eye.

But once you can't catch up, you will fall behind by two digits, and it is almost impossible to catch up in the fourth quarter.

In this case, Phil Jackson was also very troubled. Looking at the players present, no one seemed to be able to top it at a critical moment.

Lamar Odom's state has been very sluggish recently, and he seemed particularly angry when he faced James Harden today.

This is also normal, after all, Odom's ex-wife and James Harden became boyfriend and girlfriend.

For other men, it is also very popular.

Because of this, Odom is also very aggressive when defending James Harden, and even received three fouls in the first quarter.

Odom himself in the Lakers team, Lin Lei and Kobe Bryant are not on the scene, he has to take on the heavy responsibility of the offense.

This moment of his end made the situation of the team even more confusing.

The second half is about to come. Whether or not to let Lamar Odom continue to play is also a question that plagues Zen master Phil Jackson... corpse.
