This Forward is Not Serious Chapter 347

Half a month later, the Nets and Thunder went to Shanghai with a plane on the game floor.

They will start the first contest of the Chinese game there.

When he arrived in Shanghai, Durant took Lin Ying to introduce here and there.

The first stop of his previous trip to China was Shanghai Station. He returned here after only over a month, which made him feel very familiar and cordial.

Lin Ying wanted to say that he was Chinese, but seeing Durant's enthusiasm, she finally chose to use him as a tour guide.

You say yours, I see mine.

Until arriving at the hotel, Durant still wanted to take Lin Ying to see some Oriental Pearl Tower, and Lin Ying interrupted him.

"I have an event schedule in the evening."

Lin Ying was also telling the truth.

I pushed the event before to accompany Swift. Now I want to make money. I want to make up as much as I can if I can make up for the Chinese game.

In fact, the domestic endorsement is not a small sum for him.

"Shadow, you have changed."

Durant couldn't help but sighed.

Lin Ying always dismissed money before.

Unexpectedly, in order to make money, he has put his best brother aside!

The world is cold, and the hearts of the people are not old!

"Would you like to take you with me?"

Lin Ying asked.

"It has become more likable."

Durant said with a smile, hooked Lin Ying's shoulder and gave an ambiguous look.

Lin Ying: Roll your eyes, open!

In addition to being with Lin Ying, Durant actually wanted to find more endorsements.

Don't look at him full of air, but his business acumen is not low at all.

Historically, his business investment in the NBA was only less than that of James, and he had 13 big endorsement contracts at his peak.

Now, he has a full-time agent named Kleiman next to him, and he also took their original teammate Randy Williams, who was the senior with very good social skills, to be his brand ambassador.

Lin Ying now has his own personal team, and Durant already has his.

After finishing the business matters, the two people sat in the Oriental Pearl Revolving Restaurant for dinner.

Looking at the scenery of Shanghai outside the window, it feels much better than looking at the Huangpu River when Lin Ying and Yi Jianlian had a meal.

"Shadow, I think we will meet in the finals this year."

Durant glanced out the window and said when he turned his head.

"It was possible, but what you say...I don't think the chance is big."

Lin Ying said solemnly.

You, the old general of the stage, who planted the flag, I don't know how many times the Western Conference has been fulfilled before.

"No, I think it will be this time."

Durant is very confident.

Lin Ying recalled that although Harden was lost as in history, the strength of the Thunder has not weakened.

The points that Harden can score in the transition period, Martin can also get.

As for organization, the Thunder's style of play does not require organization.

And they also added a good small forward Michael Kidd Gilchrist. Referred to as McGigi.

Although this man has not played his worth in history, his strength is not bad. The most important thing is to be able to substitute Durant.

"Durant has no substitute" has always been a problem that plagued the Thunder youth army in history.

In history, the Thunder, without Durant's bench, have scored 60 wins for the first place in the Western Conference.

Now, it will only be better than that.

Of course, the most important thing is that because of the butterfly effect, the Thunder are unlikely to meet the Rockets again, and Westbrook will naturally not be abolished by Beverly.

This makes the Thunder have unlimited possibilities.

"Okay, wait at that time."

Lin Ying believed Durant once.

This person can't keep planting the flag, right?

The next day, the Mercedes-Benz Arena, the arena with a capacity of 18,000 people, was packed.

Although it's only a preseason game, there are too many things to watch in this game.

Sloan coached the Nets' first game, Lin Ying Durant's Texas Gemini Civil War, and may be a preview of the finals.

Coupled with the popularity of Lin Ying and Durant on social media this summer, this game is not only watched by fans present, but also watched by a lot of online media.

The good show is about to be staged.

This time, the floor is covered by the Nets, the black penalty area, and the big letter B in the middle circle.

Tonight, it is the home court of the Nets.

Taking into account the existence of Lin Ying and Yi Jianlian, this home court can be considered genuine.

The visiting team Thunder will play first.

Westbrook, Sofolosa, Durant, Ibaka, Perkins.

Durant enjoyed the enthusiastic cheers when he played.

As mentioned before, Durant's down-to-earth personality has allowed him to increase the number of domestic fans.

Durant felt the enthusiasm of the fans and directly sent the fans a kiss.

You are not right!

The Nets debuted as the home team.

Deron, Johnson, Lin Ying, Yi Jianlian, Chandler.

After changing the coach, whether the Nets' starting lineup will change is also an issue of concern to the outside world.

After all, compared to last season, the team's lineup for the new season is a lot more abundant.

But the result was not changed.

The fans at the scene were very happy to see it.

Because whether to change or not is mainly whether Yi Jianlian can play the starting lineup, he is still naturally happy now.

And when the players introduced the coach outside the field, the fans also gave Sloan explosive cheers.

They are also full of respect for the old man!

The final warm-up is over, and the starters from both sides are all on the stage.

With a whistle from the sidelines, Chandler returned the ball to the Nets halftime and the game officially started.

Deron advances to the frontcourt with the ball and hits the pick and roll as soon as he comes up.

Deron gave the ball to Lin Ying, who was 45° outside the three-point line on the right, and then used Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll to cut into the basket from the center.

At the same time, Johnson also borrowed Chandler's pick and roll from the left bottom line to move to the right bottom line to attract defensive attention.

The Thunder's defensive formation was affected, and Lin Ying borrowed Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll and went straight to the left to break through to the free throw line.

At this time, apart from Westbrook who had worked hard to make up for it, only Perkins was left in front of Lin Ying's eyes.

Lin Ying chose to stop the jumper without hesitation.

Westbrook's reaction was fast enough, but the time difference caused by the pick-and-roll made him unable to catch up with Lin Ying's shot speed.

Or if he catches up, it is actually difficult to interfere with Lin Ying.

"Huh!"

The pick-and-roll and Lin Ying's ultimate move produced an excellent chemical reaction!

The Nets come out on top!

Looking back, the Thunder played relatively simple, Durant directly singled out Yi Jianlian, changing to an emergency stop.

Yi Jianlian did a great defensive job, but at the last moment, we can still see the difference in physical coordination between him and Durant.

Or it can be said that the height is about the same, but in Durant's contrast, Yi Jianlian seems a little slow to respond.

"Huh!"

Durant's first shot also made a steady hit.

The first attack on both sides was completed by the core of the team and both scored.

Basically, the preseason will not play the whole game, but it will usually play halftime, and some of them have been watched in this half.

Deron held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, using the same tactics, but this time Sofolosha grabbed Lin Ying ahead of time and restricted Lin Ying from receiving the ball.

Sofolosha's offense basically only has fast breaks and three-pointers, and the three-pointers are not stable. He can get a foothold in a strong team like the Thunder by defense, elite-level defense.

The Thunder's defensive counterattack tactics, his credit is second only to Perkins.

His defensive characteristic is the show just now in this round, he is very keen on the offensive team's pass selection, and can limit the opponent's arrow figures to the greatest extent.

Deron did not force it, but continued to play a pick-and-roll.

Of course, pick-and-roll tactics, not pick-and-rolls, are also reflected in this round.

The same tactics, different launch sequences.

This time, Johnson borrowed Chandler's pick-and-roll to run from the bottom line to contain the defense, and then Yi Jianlian mentioned the high post for Deron to play the pick-and-roll.

The difference is that the quality of the pick-and-rolls given by Chandler is high enough, and Perkins has to follow Johnson to move to the right.

Deron then faced Ibaka in a dislocation and went straight to the basket.

Westbrook knows that Yi Jianlian has a range to attack Deron, and Deron singles out Ibaka one-on-one.

Before the change, even last season, Deron must hesitate to encounter this situation.

Because Ibaka's defense is very good, he needs to consider whether passing will be more appropriate.

But this time, he didn't even use his own toss, but... he wanted to buck Ibaka when he flew!

"boom!"

The ball smashed.

If this can be buckled in, he is not Deron, but Malone!

But Ibaka didn't seem to expect that Deron would dare to try to buckle him, and the blocking action was slow and directly covered Deron's hand.

The referee's whistle sounded and Deron got two free throws.

Although not deducted, the fans who chose to watch the scene were excited.

The opposite is Ibaka!

Lin Ying didn't expect it, but he could understand that Deron wanted to prove himself again in front of Sloan!

"The season is long, don't get hurt."

Deron made a free throw, and Lin Ying reminded him timely when he passed the high five.

He doesn't want history to repeat itself. If Deron is injured as much as in history, then the Nets' dream of a championship will be over.

Deron has both free throws, and the Nets' second wave of pick-and-rolls can be considered as a success.

Looking back, Westbrook rushed to the basket with Ibaka's pick and roll.

But there was Chandler, his dream teammate, at the basket, and his flying iconic scimitar dunk also flew.

The difference is that this time the referee did not sound the whistle, and Chandler steadily accepted the defensive rebound.

As American fans discussed after the Olympics, although the Dream Ten team lost, the performance of Kobe and Chandler is worthy of recognition.

Standing under the basket is a defensive gate.

However, the Thunder's retreat was very fast, and the Nets couldn't beat the fast break and turned to the position.

And the Thunder rely on defense to feed, their defensive response is really fast enough.

Deron repeated his old skills and hit the basket again. Ibaka's defense was in place this time. Deron could only dribble the ball to the left sideline without a good chance at close range.

But the variability of pick-and-roll tactics is once again reflected.

Just when the Thunder thought Deron would be transported back to the top of the arc to reorganize, Lin Ying took the pick-and-roll on Yi Jianlian's right elbow and moved to the free throw line.

Deron looked back at the moon and stuffed the ball to Lin Ying. Lin Ying caught the ball and saw that Perkins hadn't come back and rushed to the basket without slowing down.

Pengmen is now open for you!

"Boom!"

With the attention of 18 thousand Chinese fans, Lin Ying performed a violent infusion on the spot!

This is the sense of sight that strikes Malone in an instant!

"Don't tell me, the Nets already smell like jazz."

At the commentary, Su Qun said happily after seeing this scene.

"This ball is very reasonable. You see it ends easily every time."

Zhang Weiping on the side also smiled and agreed.

The biggest feature of pick-and-roll tactics is simplicity and efficiency. Although this is the first game in which Sloan coaches the Nets, the Nets seem to have played it out.

Brooks, the head coach of the Thunder, frowned with his cheek in his hand.

If the Thunder can't defend the Nets' offense, they can't take a defensive counterattack, so they will be passive.

But at this time, the Thunder played an offense that made people "eye-catching".

It was Durant who ran off the ball.

He caught the ball at the moment he caught the ball, and then hit the ground and threw the ball straight to Ibaka who had finished the pick-and-roll.

The ball is so beautiful that Ibaka takes off and dunks with both hands directly after receiving the ball!

I really thought Durant would just show his love to Scarlett without playing the Olympics in the summer!

Fans who have been following the Texas Gemini since the time of Ncaa must know that it is not like that. Durant is a complete training freak!

Just now this round also showed the results of his summer training.

He developed the organization!

Durant was the scoring leader last season and won with super efficiency.

In terms of offense alone, he is already the strongest in the league.

But in contrast, his organization still lacks.

The most intuitive data shows that he averaged 3 assists per game in only one season of his five-year career, and 3.5 times last season.

This is melonization!

But obviously Durant is not Anthony, and he also realizes this.

In addition, the team traded Harden in the summer, which further prompted him to develop organizational skills.

It turns out that his talent is really good.

Originally tall, this **** is good after practice, although it is still slightly inferior to Lin Ying, but it is also a good hand!

You can even understand that he has officially evolved into an MVP!

No wonder he was so confident when eating in the revolving restaurant.

All self-confidence comes from one's own strength.

Moreover, the Nets played pick-and-roll tactics in the frontcourt, and this time was really restricted by the Thunder.

Johnson's shot missed, and Ibaka jumped high and took off the defensive rebound to Westbrook.

Westbrook blew directly to the frontcourt like the wind.

At this speed, there are rockets in the shoes!

In fact, super breakthrough players like Iverson, Rose and Westbrook are destined to be inferior to the NBA in international arenas because of the rules.

But in the NBA arena, they are superb.

Especially Westbrook, who was not injured before, is the real Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!

"Boom!"

Amidst the exclamation of the fans, Westbrook finally pulled his body into a scimitar this time, brushed shoulders with the jumping Johnson in the air, and smashed the ball into the basket.

And after the dunk, Westbrook's veins screamed frantically.

The scene is boiling!

This ornamental burst makes people burst into blood!

So you can understand why Stern thinks it's good for the Thunder to play the Finals with the Nets.

There are Lin Ying and Durant, but there are more than Lin Ying and Durant!
