Super Role Player

Abby was pregnant. Before heading to the west to start the road trip, Anxi took Abby to the hospital for a check. After confirming this, the two went out for a Western meal and celebrated.

Of course, another call was made to Phoenix to report.

It just so happened that the next round of the 76ers' road trip, Abby decided to go to Phoenix with the 76ers to stay for a while.

So Abby followed the 76ers' plane and flew to Oklahoma City.

The opponent in the first game of the Western Conference road trip is the Thunder. For the 76ers who have been unstable in the recent past, this will obviously be a tough fight. It will not be good news for the 76ers, because they are likely to change from A defeat began this wave of road trips to the west.

The Thunder this season is very strong, almost comparable to the Thunder which still had three minors in the 11-12 season, because Dewey’s second minor has returned from injury and is in good condition. Reggie Jackson also won because of Westbrook’s injury. There are few opportunities, so great progress has been made.

All in all, Durant, Westbrook and Reggie Jackson have formed a new three young masters. Although Westbrook and Reggie Jackson have a positional conflict, the problem is not particularly big for each starter and one substitute.

And in terms of pure strength, the Thunder is higher than the 76ers.

Therefore, for the 76ers, this game is still quite difficult.

On March 4, 2014, US time, Chesapeake Energy Arena, the visiting team's locker room, Brett Brown looked through the tactical manual and discussed the tactics of the game with the coaching staff.

"What is the current weakness of Thunder?"

"Outside defense. In this game, Saboseforosa is out of the game due to injury. They don't have a good one-defense player on the outside line to allow Ankedo to play singles with the ball. On the inside, Sergi Ibaka and Stie With the existence of Vin Adams, we are not good at focusing on the attack."

"Then the tactical core is determined, and more offensive outside." Brett Brown delineated the first one.

"What about defensively?"

"Defensively, let Ann defend Westbrook." Lloyd Pierce proposed.

Another defensive coach frowned: "What about Kevin Durant?"

"Leave it to Claude, he should be alone."

Brett Brown nodded, agreeing: "Let's do it then."

Therefore, before the game, Brett Brown determined the game's play, focusing on outside offense and defense, Anxi defended Westbrook, and Jack Lauder defended Durant.

Before the game, Brett Brown announced the starting lineup. McAway has already made a comeback and played two substitutes. This game also returned to the starting line. Anxi continued to serve as the shooting guard. The small forward position was Jack Lauder and the inside was Paul. The European combination of Gasol and Omer Asik.

At the scene of the game, although the players of the two teams have not yet played, although this is just an ordinary regular season, the fans of Oklahoma City do not want to miss this seemingly heavyweight matchup. Therefore, the game has not yet started. It was full of fans.

The Thunder came out first, and there was cheers in the arena.

After playing, Durant waved to the sidelines, and then started shooting training with his teammates.

Subsequently, the 76ers also appeared, but the 76ers were greeted by boos.

The commentators for this game were Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr. They sat down in the commentary booth and heard the 76ers booed by the fans.

"Counting out, Anxi is also the old enemy of the Oklahoma City fans." Steve Kerr thought of Anxi's two years with the Spurs, and then said. "Anxi played for the Spurs for two years, and the Thunder were eliminated in consecutive playoffs. Anxi was always able to limit Kevin Durant. The fans of Oklahoma City may already have fresh memories of Anxi."

Reggie Miller also smiled and nodded: "Yes, but after leaving the Spurs, Anxi has also entered the ranks of superstars. There are still many highlights of this game. It is the former blue-collar Anxi leading the new team to defeat the old opponent. The Thunder, or both show off less, and lead the Thunder in revenge, is still unknown.

"Although the Thunder's record is better, after the 76ers were traded for Pau Gasol and Omer Asik, their strength should not be underestimated. The state of the previous few games was unstable and it should be just a matter of running-in. If this game runs-in Taking shape, for the Thunder, this game will also be a difficult game."

"Yes, after the 76ers were traded for Pau Gasol and Omer Asik, they became a balanced team inside and outside. There are star players inside and outside. The team structure is more reasonable than that of the Thunder. If it really works well. , I am optimistic about the 76ers winning."

The two commentators were optimistic about the 76ers who were unstable during this period of time. The 76ers smelled of poisoned milk.

Soon, the two teams debuted. The 76ers' starting lineup was the starting lineup previously arranged by Brett Brown, and the Thunder's starting lineup changed because of Saboseforosa's injury.

The point guard is still Russell Westbrook, and the shooting guard is Caron Butler. Caron Butler has just been bought out by the Bucks and then joined the Thunder as a free agent. This game is also his first time in the Thunder. In the game, because of Sabose Frosa's injury ~www.novelmtl.com~Caron Butler got the chance to start.

The small forward is still Kevin Durant, the power forward Serge Ibaka, and the center is the newly promoted rookie center Steven Adams.

The referee walked to the center of the court holding the basketball, and Asik and Steven Adams jumped the ball.

With a beep, the basketball flew over the arena.

Asik jumped up and won the jump ball.

The 76ers advanced, Anxi held the ball to the frontcourt, and his teammates also fell into position.

As soon as Anxi reached the three-point line, Pau Gasol withdrew, referring to the high position and giving Anxi a pick-and-roll.

Anxi moved towards the pick-and-roll position with the ball. Caron Butler who defended Anxi and Serge Ibaka who defended Gasol chose to double-team Anxi and let Gasol go.

Anxi didn’t hesitate, and passed it to Gasol. Gasol didn’t shoot directly. Instead, he cut into the basket. Steven Adams defended. On the other side, Jack Lauder made a quick Run into the restricted area.

Gasol passed the ball from behind, Jack Lauder received the ball and layup, and the basketball slipped into the hoop with a scream.

Brett Brown clapped his hands on the sidelines. The 76ers' first offense was very good, running out of the team's desired tactics, continuous pick-and-roll screens and the star players holding the ball to attract defenses, gaining space for the role players.

After the 76ers opened the goal, the Thunder's offense also began. Westbrook advanced to the front court with the ball. Durant and Caron Butler from the outside came to a cross-screen. The 76ers instantly changed defense, and Durant played a big game. , Receiving Westbrook's pass and shoot directly.

McAway's height is not too short, but facing Durant's long arms, there is still nothing to do.

With a scream, Durant made a dry jumper and scored 2 points.

In the opening match, the two teams drew 2:2 and the game continued. (To be continued.)
