One Guard

The Oklahoma City Thunder, a new NBA team that has just started its third season. [] Unlike the Charlotte Bobcats who joined the league that year, the Thunder seems to have become a force that cannot be ignored as soon as they appear in the NBA. Although most of the main players in this team are young people, they have already shown their power on the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers as early as last year.

Although failed to eliminate the Lakers and complete the Black Eight miracle, the Thunder has undoubtedly become the most promising one of the 30 teams in the league. Their three star players Durant, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook are the young models and the seedlings of superstars.

Especially Durant, before the Thunder team moved, the Sonics directly abandoned the team's head stars Ray Allen and Lewis for him, and built the team wholeheartedly around this tall and arm-length talented teenager.

Facts have proved that the Thunder's choice is quite correct. In just two years, the Thunder went from a big team to a playoff-level Western team. Among them, Durant is of course indispensable. This 22-year-old young man seems to have become a member of the superstars in the league.

So far this season, the Thunder have achieved an impressive record of 10 wins and 4 losses. You know, the Mavericks are almost on the voyage, and the current record is only 10 wins and 3 losses, only one more win than the young Oklahoma City Thunder. Judging from these data alone, the game between Thunder and Mavericks will naturally be a collision like sparks hitting the earth.

Therefore, although the Atlanta Hawks had just defeated the offending Atlanta Hawks, none of the Mavericks players allowed themselves to relax. In 24 hours, they will face a stronger opponent at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma. Only by gnawing off the Thunder, the Mavericks will take a breath. Before there, the nerves of the whole team were tense.

Nowitzki slowly opened his eyes, he first looked at his watch, at two o'clock in the morning. In about half an hour, the plane will land in Oklahoma.

Although it had been off for three days before, Nowitzki felt very strenuous every time he played back to back. In the dark cabin, Nowitzki found a faint white light in the row diagonally across from him.

The German stood up and walked in the direction of light. Sure enough, at this moment, Yiyang is watching a video of the Thunder team's game with a computer.

"Aren't you going to sleep for a while?" Nowitzki simply sat beside Yiyang.

"Can't sleep." Yiyang's eyes never left the screen from start to finish, he just answered Nowitzki's question.

"He is very impactful." On the computer screen, a defender wearing a white zero jersey was trying to break through. When he crossed the opponent's line of defense, it seemed that all defensive preparations were futile.

This strong guy crushed a path with his body, and then he directly hit the basket, dunked, and got a chance to hit a three-pointer.

Seeing Westbrook once again finished the world's best performance, even Yiyang's eyes widened. Is this guy really a point guard? With such an extremely impactful guard, Yiyang can hardly imagine what it would be like when he stood in front of him.

"Yes, his impact is very terrifying." Yiyang shook his head while answering Nowitzki.

"But it's okay. He acted recklessly and considered things not as thoughtful as you. This guy does have a good body, but he hasn't figured out when to shoot and when to pass the ball. This guy's shooting options are usually It’s not reasonable. You can use this to get him more shots, but few goals.” Nowitzki smiled and patted Yiyang’s shoulder. The German smiled confidently and made the tight strings of Yiyang too. The yang eased slightly.

"In the NBA, there are countless people who are stronger than me and more destructive than me. But I have never been afraid, but I have survived in my own way! Believe my kid, you can too! Rest early, if tomorrow If your mental condition is not good, old Jason will be able to bear it. His old bones may really be unable to withstand Westbrook's rushing a few times." Nowitzki finished speaking and pressed Yiyang Computer The standby button on the

The screen of the laptop gradually dimmed, and Yiyang realized that his eyes were already exhausted.

He put down the computer and closed his eyes with the blanket. A good team leader can really make a team's combat effectiveness greatly increased. Following the Germans, Yiyang always feels very at ease.

Under Nowitzki's comfort, Yiyang soon fell asleep. Another guard from Long Beach? I can’t wait to meet you as scheduled!

※※※

At 7:30 pm on November 24, Chesapeake Energy Arena, Oklahoma City. Yiyang, who warmed up on the court, attracted the attention of most fans and reporters on the scene.

It's not that this guy changed his hair style or got a new tattoo, but the positive attitude he showed during the warm-up period, which made reporters look forward to the collision between Yiyang and Westbrook more and more.

"It seems that the Chinese has made up his mind to eat you tonight." Looking at Yiyang, who was running in the opposite half, Durant couldn't help but joking with the zero guard next to him.

"It doesn't matter who eats it, Kevin. After the game starts, he won't be so lively anymore!" Westbrook gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. This guy is the same as Yiyang. Both of them. They are all full of almost paranoid desire for victory!

The game started very quickly, even the media and fans at the scene wanted to see the two defenders from Long Beach face off. However, Rick Carlisle took Kidd to the starting position very shamelessly, while Yiyang continued to wait on the bench.

Although he played against the Pistons, Yiyang scored a career-high 25 points and 13 assists for the first time as a starter. It can be said that the effect is quite good. But Carlisle is not the kind of person who is eager to pull the seed out, and for the current Mavericks team, it is more appropriate to start with Kidd. If Kidd has no problems with his body and stamina, then his starting point guard position will be quite stable.

With Yiyang's momentum, leaving him on the second team, the effect will be better.

At the beginning of the game, it was inextricable. Nowitzki and Marion, both old and cunning, made the Mavericks score frequently and put great pressure on the young Thunder on the defensive end.

On the Thunder side, Durant and Jeff Green, two forward players, also gave Dallas a strong response. Especially Durant, although Durant's height in official data is 2.06 meters, Marion dare to swear to God that Durant is by no means only so "short".

Whenever Durant crushed Marion and forced a layup, Marion felt that his defense was simply a dislocation! He is playing against a center with excellent technique and soft touch, not against a third player.

Whenever Durant stretched out his long arms to avoid the defensive layup, Marion simply couldn't reach the basketball, let alone block or interfere.

The performance of the two teams on the front line is very good, and the performance of the two teams in the position of point guard is somewhat unsatisfactory.

Both Kidd and Westbrook had several opportunities, but they were unable to score. Westbrook is always too hasty when facing Kidd, and Kidd can't bear it under the pressure of Westbrook's strong body.

The two teams are just like you come and go, and the play is so lively. But neither team has any team that can completely control the rhythm of the game.

In the fifth minute of the first quarter, when Westbrook broke Kidd's defense with a blunt breakthrough and dunked before Tyson Chandler could make up his defense. The entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was plunged into madness, and the city of Oklahoma seemed to shake.

From a wonderful slam dunk from a point guard, the thunder's offense this time can be appreciated. This goal not only gave the Thunder the most four-point lead in the game, but also forced Rick Carlisle to call a timeout.

When the Thunder were off the court, the players all talked and laughed, and high-five each other. It seems that this year's Dallas Mavericks, which is advancing so much, is nothing more than that. Had it not been for Jeff Green, the "no three, no four" guy, who was too short for the Germans to score too many points, the Mavericks might have been unable to hold it.

All the Thunder fans are cheering, and even for a team like the Mavericks, coming to Oklahoma is only going to get into a hard fight.

But they seem to forget that an important member of the Mavericks this season, they have not played even one minute of the ball today.

"Jason, well done, you have to rest first. Also, get ready to debut!" Carlisle gave an order. Yiyang, who had been sitting still on the bench, suddenly "flounced". He quickly took off his training uniform and tore it off. Disposable training pants. Then he turned his head and looked at the number 0 who had completed a wonderful dunk. Surprisingly, the two happened to look at each other, and Westbrook ~www.novelmtl.com~ also looked at Chaoyiyang!

Seeing that Yiyang was also looking at himself, Westbrook smiled first. His generous smile showed white teeth, which reminded Yiyang of California sunshine.

Westbrook's smile is not counted. He not only smiled, but also gave Yiyang a thumb. Is it possible that this guy is so friendly to all the players from Long Beach?

No, Westbrook comes from the dangerous neighbourhood of Long Beach like Yiyang. Like Yiyang, he grew up in crime, drugs and dilapidated streets. Yiyang witnessed the death of his father with his own eyes, while Westbrook remembered the death of his best friend and moved forward with the dream of another person!

The next second, Westbrook suddenly twisted his wrist. The thumbs that were originally upwards have become downwards!

Westbrook, a guy with a similar experience to Yiyang, knows very well that in the civilized battlefield of the basketball court, either you die or I die! In this 418 square meter site, there are only enemies, no friends!

Yiyang didn't feel angry after seeing Westbrook's provocation, instead the corners of his mouth curled slightly. A long beach-style battle, Yiyang hasn't experienced it for a long time!
