Durant played a little depressed tonight, you say he didn't play well?

No, the league's leading scorer played efficiently tonight, finishing with 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting, including 1-of-1 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws.

Durant didn't shoot much, mainly because the Thunder's offense was blocked in the second quarter, and after the Knicks opened up the outside line, Thunder coach Brooks replaced Westbrook.

But tonight Durant didn't think there was anything wrong with Westbrook's style of play, because the Knicks focused on their own defense, and it was not easy for Durant to catch the ball, in contrast, Westbrook's side has always been an opportunity.

By the end of the third quarter, Westbrook had made 11 of 26 shots, and if you exclude his 0-of-5 three-pointers, Westbrook actually shot more than 50 percent from the field.

Coupled with a 5-of-8 free throw, Westbrook was the Thunder's most aggressive and eye-catching player tonight, finishing the third quarter with 27 points and grabbing nine rebounds.

So is Harden playing badly?

No, no, Harden scored 15 points on 5-of-9 shooting, including 1-of-2 three-pointers and 4-of-4 free throws, in his limited playing time tonight, which is already above average.

I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.

Durant is even more certain after tonight's game, compared to scoring ability, he is above Lin Yi.

But why is this guy so scene-stealing?

Why?

Why is that?

After three quarters of play, the Knicks, who were playing away, had already allowed the home fans to leave.

At 98-70, the Thunder had trailed by a full 28 points.

Lin Yi played the first four minutes in the fourth quarter, and the Thunder team withdrew all three young people after feeling hopeless in chasing points.

Brooks felt like he had lost unjustly tonight because the two teams had too many points off the bench!

The Knicks' bench scored a total of 50 points tonight, and the Thunder's bench ...... If you exclude Harden's scoring, there are only 7 points......

It's so wronged, I must let Presti strengthen the bench lineup when I go back, otherwise it will be too wasteful of the talent of this wave of players, Brooks thought to himself.

……

Lin Yi, who stole all the limelight tonight, was summarizing with D'Antoni and the three assistant coaches of the Knicks on the bench at this time.

"Lin, how do you know that once Westbrook goes crazy, Durant won't be able to score high?" D'Antoni is in a good mood now, after the Knicks won this victory, it was the 29th win, 29-8, this is not the Suns that the old German led before, but the Knicks who were still at the bottom of the team last season.

It's great that you don't have to mess around.

D'Antoni cares a lot about his overall win percentage in his coaching career, and for a coach, that's their scores, rebounds and assists.

"Ah, this." I can't tell you that I came through time, can I? Lin Yi thought for a while and replied, "The OK group also had this problem back then. ”

"Huh?" Lao De and the three teaching assistants all came over and listened.

"O'Neal and Kobe Bryant accounted for the vast majority of the shots back then, so it was difficult for other players on the Lakers team to score double-doubles. Even if Durant is the scoring champion, he needs at least 20 shots per game, but the total number of shots taken by a team is always constant in a game. ”

"Durant isn't that kind of paranoid, so when he sees that Westbrook has a better chance than he does, he doesn't go and grab the right hand with Westbrook. However, Westbrook's shortcomings are here, and he can score high points, but at the cost of taking far more shots than Durant. Lin Yi explained.

Lao De nodded, Westbrook's final shot count tonight was fixed at 29, and he scored 27 points on 29 shots, which was actually below average.

Before Harden grew up, this Thunder team was still dominated by double less, Durant's character is like this, don't look at him He also won four scoring titles, and his career-high number of shots is only 20.8 per game.

Physical reasons?

Lin Yi doesn't believe it, Durant played about 38 to 39 minutes per game at the beginning of his career, Durant is indeed a fairly efficient scorer, but he is not paranoid.

In fact, there are good and bad things, the good thing is that the future goes to the Warriors, even if it is not very compatible with Curry, in fact, the data of the Splash Brothers is not very affected by Durant's joining.

Durant leans towards the team and plays reasonably.

The bad thing is that there are some games that the Thunder can't win, and although Westbrook has a small arsenal on the offensive end, there are some Thunder games that the Thunder can't win if he doesn't play hard to score points.

There are two sides to everything.

D'Antoni felt that Lin Yi was quite reasonable, and said jokingly: "So, Lin, you want to say that your shots are a little less now, right?" ”

Lin Yi smiled undeniably, did he count?

It's not time yet.

When it's time to brush, Lin Yi won't miss any opportunity to brush data.

He is now only 13 games away from the five-class promotion, and after the whole class is promoted to the silver level, Lin Yi will try to see how far he can play.

Now he relies on his understanding of future basketball tactics and his advantage of infinite dislocation, and playing like this is the limit while ensuring efficiency.

Be selfish?

Of course.

The Knicks have a good record, and people will rate him even higher, after all, they brought the bottom team to the playoffs in their rookie season, and LeBron James failed to do it.

Lin Yi's goal is not once, twice, three times, nor is it as simple as four, five, or six scoring titles......

To become the first person in NBA history.

The first thing to cross is the string of data left by the trapeze Michael Jordan.

Jordan led the Bulls to the playoffs in his rookie season, and the "old rascal" is really perverted.

Fight monsters, level up, and farm data!

These are the three core tasks of Lin Yi's rookie season.

……

126-89, the Knicks beat the Thunder by 37 points on the road.

Lin Yi played 30 minutes in the game and got the Knicks' highest 25 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 blocks, adding another triple-double to his career database.

Lin Yi has three triple-doubles and one quadruple-double this season, the most among rookies this year.

"Can he surpass Magic Johnson's record of seven triple-doubles in his rookie season?" Barkley said curiously after the game.

"I still think the quadruple is more scary." Kenny Smith said, piercing the heart, Kenny Smith should still blow it, although Barkley suspected that Kenny Smith was afraid of being pricked by Lin Yi again......

After the game, Harden was visibly frustrated in an interview, and what he said after the game would be translated into Chinese: Regret the mountain, shake the forest is easy.

Lin Yi didn't know that he had left such a psychological shadow on Harden, who was still weak.

Westbrook is an optimist, and he thinks the Thunder will win back the next time the two teams meet, and when referring to Linyi, Westbrook said: "He's a good player, it's a shame I can't be teammates with him." ”

Westbrook is very happy, because Lin Yi said that he is the best defensive player, and he also feels that he is underestimated by the media on the defensive end, he thinks he can work hard, seeing that Durant is about to win the scoring title, it seems good to go and get a DPOY himself?

Durant said that he was going to be in the best team this year, but he didn't want to start in the second team, Westbrook didn't want to be too far behind Durant, and if he worked defense, he felt that he had a chance to impact the best defensive second team.

On the contrary, Durant is a little depressed, in his eyes, Lin Yi is now his number one enemy!

Obviously, he is now leading the scoring list, but in the West, his popularity competition is not as good as Anthony, Duncan people don't ask for votes, once the "Stone Buddha" speaks, the devil knows how many votes Duncan can have, and there are Nowitzki and Gasol in the West in the forward position......

Don't think about starting the All-Star Game.

But why didn't anyone praise him?

Obviously, his playing style is also very "sci-fi", and it is also very exaggerated.

"Kevin, did tonight's game make you realize the gap between you and Lin?" A Knicks media asked provocatively.

Ha?

Gap, big brother, did you watch the ball?

Durant made up his mind that the next time he played the Knicks, he must let the whole team give him unlimited firing rights.

And Harden and Westbrook are both in Quarling, what the hell!

I'm your teammate, right?

Kevin - heart is tired and wants to change teammate - Durant.

"Okay, don't feel bad, let's eat cake together, and that cake shop has launched a new flavor." Westbrook pulled Harden and Durant along after the game.

"Yes! Desserts always make you forget your losses. Harden nodded and said, what a "big demon king", to hell, Harden felt that being with Lin Yi was too heartbroken.

"Hmm." Durant nodded, in fact, it's not bad to have these two buddies.

The future must be ours.

Durant clenched his fists.
