Chapter 68: The First Appearance

Durant was so excited that he got up from the bench, he waved the towel in his hand wildly, he had never seen anyone stabilize the situation when he was off the court last season, and now it seems that these two guys who are his age are indeed very strong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Anjie scored this goal, the Thunder also officially announced that they came out of the quagmire of no score. With four minutes left in the first quarter, the Thunder tied the score at 12.

Milwaukee Bucks head coach Scott Skels knew that the momentum of the young team of the Thunder was rising, and he hurriedly called a timeout, in addition to setting up some tactics, and more importantly, not allowing the momentum of that group of young people to continue.

Anjie and Westbrook were all the teammates who came off the court to high-five them, and the two youngsters had already earned a spot on the Thunder with their performances.

"Nicely buttoned. Durant even touched An Jie's head, this big boy who usually doesn't talk much at the bottom also showed his rare passion today.

While Skyles expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Bucks' full squad, Thunder head coach P.J. Callesimo did not make any constructive changes. He just told his players over and over again to pay attention to the defense, and he didn't say a word more.

After the timeout, Kevin Durant, who had just been out of hand, returned to the court again, and it was the first time that the three top players of the Thunder team appeared at the same time today.

Wu Hua raised his camera in the press section to take a photo of three young people waiting on the sidelines to play, and later used the photo in the column, and the caption under the photo was "The present and future of the Thunder."

At the end of the timeout, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and Anjie took to the court at the same time. At the moment, they are not afraid of Michael Reid, Richard Jefferson and Andrew Bogut, who have been ridiculed by the media as the "poor man's version of the Big Three".

With similar configurations and similar strong points, whether the veterans are immortal or the blue, the battle between the Thunder and the Bucks continues to escalate!

For the missed shot just now, Michael Reed is quite concerned. Obviously, the front was done perfectly, but the last blow could not be finished. How can you make up for a failure? The best way to do that, of course, is to make up for it with another perfect attack.

Ridno handed the ball to Reid as soon as he passed the half, and when Westbrook tensed his nerves, Reed, who had just been eager to attack, passed the ball again.

Richard Jefferson got the ball and went straight into the box, a move that also made Thunder power forward Wilcox stay in the box for a while. Subconsciously, he felt that he had to stay and make up for it.

This time Durant did not lose his position, Jefferson burst halfway and suddenly passed, Wilcox raised his hands to interfere, but the ball was passed outside the free throw line.

Villanueva had another chance to score, and he pulled out immediately after Jefferson broke through. One is to make room for his teammates, and the other is to give himself the opportunity to pull out and shoot.

Anjie, who was entangled with Bogut, had no way to go up to make up for it, so he could only watch as Villanueva easily hit a mid-range shot from behind the free throw line.

It's not the first time Wilcox has leaked today, not to mention that his opponent Villanueva is still an inside line with a huge range of attacks. Defensively, Wilcox is simply a big black hole.

The Thunder fans were very helpless, but after a second, they immediately became excited again, because the three rookies of the Thunder team were about to start attacking at the same time!

Westbrook has clearly taken control of the ball in his own hands, and he carefully observes his teammates' movements, but in fact, the first option in his mind is to break through himself!

However, Michael Reid did not let Westbrook get his wish this time, and his defense remained unwavering, and Westbrook hit a wall on several attempts to break through.

Seeing that this little brother couldn't make a difference, Durant raised his hand to ask for the ball, and he hadn't scored a point until the game was played, and he couldn't hold back off the court for a long time.

After failing to break through for the third time, Westbrick still gave up his intention to attack and obediently handed the ball to Durant, who couldn't wait.

Durant received the ball, An Jie wanted to come up to block the demolition, but Durant waved his hand, he wanted to play alone!

In the Whirlwinds, this will never happen. Because Riccard has a very clear arrangement, and the Whirlwind team is faithfully carrying out Ricard's orders.

But everything is very different with the Thunder, P.J. Calesimo's tactics are very unclear, and he relies more on the players' on-the-spot decisions to play.

Seeing that Durant didn't need to block and dismantle, An Jie could only pull out of the restricted area, but he still trusted this teammate who had proven himself.

What surprised everyone was that Durant's forced driving layup was off target due to the interference of veteran Richard Jefferson. And the ball hasn't been fouled yet!

Seeing that the ball didn't go in, Bogut immediately stuck in the position, and An Jie also felt for the first time that it was not easy to play against a top-level player.

Amid the anticipatory cheers of Thunder fans, the first collaboration of the three youngsters ended hastily in this way.

"It seems that Durant is really out of shape today, he has failed to score points on three consecutive attacks, and Durant has not scored a goal so far in the game!" Even the commentator couldn't believe his eyes, facing the old Jefferson who was no longer at his peak, Durant still didn't grasp the opportunity.

There was a problem on the Thunder's side, but the Bucks had just adjusted from the timeout, and the next offensive Michael Reed finally made up for it when he made a stop-and-go mid-range jumper after breaking through Westbrook.

The trio's second offense, this time they didn't go it alone, the ball first passed through the hands of Westbrook and Anjie, and when Anjie was about to push into the restricted area, he handed the ball to Durant again.

In the face of Jefferson's defense two steps late, Durant still resolutely chose to shoot.

"Bang!" But the result has not changed, Durant's cold hand is still the same!

An Jie was just going to jump with all his strength to win the offensive rebound, but Bogut held An Jie so that he couldn't jump, and the Thunder team once again returned in vain!

Durant: What's going on? That's the only question in the minds of Thunder fans. You must know that in the last regular season game of the SuperSonics vs. the Warriors last season, Durant scored 42 points and shot 72% from the field! It was in that last game that Durant announced in a high-profile manner that he would definitely make a comeback.

The result is that the first quarter of the new season is almost over, and Durant still has zero points!

Michael Reed will not wait for Durant to recover before he can exert his strength, he and Richard Jefferson opened the bow left and right, coupled with Wilcox's frequent gifts to Villanueva, the score was quickly pulled away again!

When the first quarter of the game ended, the originally flat score became 14-24, and the difference of ten points once again weighed heavily on the young Thunder team. After that timeout, the Thunder only scored two points thanks to a breakthrough from Westbrook, and Anjie didn't have a single shot on the court. After shining with Westbrook in the first half of the first quarter, he was clearly much darker in the second half.

"An Jie doesn't seem to be too adaptable to the rhythm of the team, right?" The commentators in the mainland analyzed the reasons why the Thunder team played so unsuccessfully in the first quarter, and inevitably talked about An Jie.

"I don't think it's a problem of adaptation, it's that the team doesn't have a clear attacking idea at all. Whoever gets the ball can play, and sometimes those who really have a chance can't get the ball. "P.J. Calesimo's coaching skills were also questioned at this time.

"Kevin, it's okay, don't be affected by the cold touch in the first quarter, you continue to shoot in the second half, you have to have confidence in yourself!" In the interval of the first quarter, after P.J. Callesimo made this decision, Anjie and Westbrook were full of black lines, this Thunder team is only Durant can attack, but as rookies, they are not qualified to question the head coach's decision.

As a result, at the beginning of the second quarter, Durant hit the iron twice in a row, and now there is no need for his teammates to say, Durant also knows that he should give up the right to fire.

Earl Watson strictly executed P.J. Calesimo's arrangement, and he just threw the ball out of the way without caring whether Durant had a chance or not, anyway, that guy has the ability to create his own chances.

When Durant faced the basket again with the ball, he knew that he could no longer play like this, and he looked at Angel and Westbrook, this Thunder team was very different from what it used to be, so he couldn't play like he used to.

"What is Durant going to do this time? What is he going to do...... Durant hoisted the ball into the restricted area!" After Anjie didn't get a chance for a long time, the emotions of the Chinese commentators and fans have cooled down for a long time, and now, this exciting scene has finally appeared.

Anjie was a little unprepared for Durant's sudden pass, so he wasn't in a good offensive position when he received the ball. However, his teammates have all given away the ball, so he Anjie doesn't have to be humble.

"Back singles! The first two attacks of Anjie were scored with Westbrick in the sports battle, and this is the first time Anjie got the chance to score with a back-to-back singles in this game! When Anjie was in college, back-to-back singles were his most efficient means of scoring!"

In the face of Bogut, AnJie knew that he would not win by strength alone. The rugged Australians kept grabbing Anjie's jersey, and the NBA was really like Divac said, there was no good stubble at all!

An Jie quickly turned around with his footsteps and slipped towards the bottom line, but Bogut's stubborn resistance made it very difficult for An Jie to take every step.

"This is not where you should be! You should continue to be your big star in college!" Bogut also yelled in Anjie's ear during the confrontation to disrupt the rhythm of the attack and put pressure on the opponent.

Anjie turned a deaf ear, and the trash talk that Morris had sprayed in his ear was much worse than Bogut's.

After eating directly below the basket, An Jie raised his hand to raise the ball, ready to complete the hook directly below the basket. Bogut knew that he couldn't disturb Anjie just by standing, so he jumped up, spotted Anjie's ball handler, and prepared to fly the ball out cleanly to end the confrontation.

However, as soon as An Jie was about to make a move, he suddenly quickly put back the basketball he was holding high, and then he quickly turned around at the bottom of the basket in the opposite direction and completed the hook from the other side of the basket.

"Ho ho! The dexterous steps of the Chinese are deeply impacted!" The ESPN commentator laughed, An Jie's entire action was completed very smoothly, without dragging the water, such a wonderful inside confrontation he had not seen for a long time.

"You'll have to be smart next time you want to stop me, after all, I deliberately slowed down a bit when I shook you. Bogut never thought that this damn Chinese rookie would dare to humiliate him back!

The rough confrontation with Bogut made Anjie also unleash his wildness, Divac said that Anjie has demonic blood in his body, and he has never been a good gentleman!

An Jie got the first chance to play back in the Thunder team, I wonder if his performance can conquer two teammates who are also talented?
