After beating the Bucks, the Thunder improved their record to 7-2 and remained firmly in second place in the West.

The Lakers are still at the top of the West, with an 8-1 record only behind the Cavaliers' opening eight straight wins.

Third in the West is the Nuggets, and although Iverson's departure has reduced the Nuggets' strength, the schedule advantage at the beginning of the season has allowed them to achieve a 7-3 record, only one more loss than the Thunder.

The game against the Bucks was easy, and he studied the opponent's defensive position from the beginning of the pre-game preparation, and watched a lot of game footage.

Li Forest has already begun to slowly cultivate his professional habits, which used to be too casual and slightly wavery.

With Durant's brilliance, Lee Forest enjoys not the highest level of defensive treatment, and the opponent's defensive focus is directed at Durant, and Lee Forest has more time to read the form on the court.

A game against the Bucks is completely crushing.

After playing the Bucks, the whole Thunder team immediately set off non-stop, and their next game was abroad, against the Toronto Raptors.

Arriving in Toronto early means a little more rest, because after playing the Raptors, the Thunder will face the strongest opponent in this crusade.

…………

In the hotel, at the door of the room, Li Forest was talking to Coach Brooks.

"Lee, here's the video of the Raptors' start of the season, take a look."

Li Forest took the USB flash drive from Brooks' hand and replied, "OK, thank you, Coach Brooks." ”

"Haha, this is what I should do, I wish you all bothered me like this."

"Well, then I'll go watch the video first."

“OK。”

Brooks watched with great relief as Li Forest entered the room with the USB flash drive containing the Raptors' video.

Li Forest began to become extremely active again during this time.

Li Forest's mood was good and bad, and Brooks didn't know what was going on with Li Forest.

Sometimes he's positive, sometimes he's very negative, and when he's positive, he's more diligent than Durant and Westbrook, but he's lazy and lazier than Harden, and his personality really makes Brooks hard to figure out.

Back in the room, Li Linlin turned on the computer and looked at the video given by the coaching staff and the information provided by the data analyst.

Studied the Raptors' tactics and key players.

Li Forest has traveled over for a long time, and he has a basic understanding of the general playing style of the star, but the data of the star has long been forgotten, and Li Forest also needs to use data and video to recall.

Looking at the information......

At this time, the Raptors are not the cute dragons with two guns in the future, and now the star of the Raptors is Chris Bosh, and DeRozan is just a dunk brother.

The Dragon King is not the 0.5 giant, he is a real giant in Toronto, as the leader of the 03 generation, the Dragon King's current average this season is 25 points and 11 rebounds, and he will bring more trouble to the Thunder inside.

The Raptors now have a 3-5 record, sitting seventh in the East and on the fringes of the playoffs.

Li Linlin looked at the video and combined with his previous impressions, he also analyzed the main characteristics of Bosh.

Bosh is a big man with excellent speed, flexible skills, excellent jumping, good at turning and jumping after back-to-back singles, high-post jumpers after using teammates to cover or block with teammates, with a high shooting percentage, the ability to break through the frame with the ball, and a good three-point shot, but they are not conventional scoring methods.

Bosh is an excellent defender on the defensive end, but his light weight has led to a lack of individual defensive ability.

Chris Bosh is in an awkward position with the Raptors right now, averaging between 22 and 23 points per game over the past three years, but the Raptors' record has been off for a year.

Compared with the other two big forward superstars in the league who are chasing history with glory and data like nine days of the moon, the Dragon King has not even dared to be called the No. 1 forward in the Atlantic region. (There's a fight-and-retreat jumper in the Atlantic at the Celtics.)

And the Raptors also seem to be ready for the Dragon King to leave next summer.

The Raptors now have a triangle of Calderon, Barjani and Turkoglou, and the team will not survive or starve for the next four years.

The idea of the Raptors management is also very unique, the Dragons next summer are willing to stay, and if they are not willing to stay, they will not force it, anyway, the team relies on this lineup and salary space, and it is not impossible to fish in the 2010 market.

But Li Linlin, who is familiar with the future, knows that they really can't even touch the fish! Few stars want to come to Toronto.....

The Raptors' other main player, Tekoglu, also won the "Improved Player of the Year award". After winning the MIP award in 2008, Turkoglou's regular season stats for the Magic last season were in decline, but he was fortunate to have a career masterpiece in the playoffs.

Although Turkoglou's stats are only 16 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists per game, it is because of those iconic moments, such as the slam of the assassin, and the appearance of the actual playmaker of the Magic, that Tekoglu reached the pinnacle of his life, and he left Toronto this summer to get a big contract.

The ups and downs of the 2007-09 seasons also hinted at his strengths and limitations, with Tecoglu being one of the biggest, most insidious, and smartest players in the league, but his offense needed a lot of cover, his defense was only height and awareness, and he needed to be compensated by the Monsters, and he and the Magic's system were just right together, but when the opponent pressed, his performance became inconsistent.

Tomorrow night's game against the Raptors, Turkoglou will also be a key target for the Thunder.

…………

In addition to Turkglu and Bosh, there is another giant, Bariani.

For the past three years, Bariani has been forced to move between the No. 3 and No. 5 spots, and it wasn't until his average of 20 points per game in the second half of last season and a long-term contract this summer that cemented his status with the Raptors.

Medium penalty area single defense, occasional blocking ability, ordinary strategy, ultra-long three-point range, heads-up big man basket pace and soft feel giant height, these are all the characteristics of this champion show, a bit like the poor man's version of Porzingis in the future.

He relied on awareness to close the power gap on the defensive end, and on the offensive end he relied on long-range shots and pace to create misalignment, and he was a big man who relied on positional catch-and-shoot to solve problems.

Li Forest can only say that this champion Xiusheng is in the wrong era, and this kind of big man will be very popular in the future, but now! A parallel trade champion.

After watching the video for a long time, the characteristics of the "Big Three" of Bosh + Tekoglu + Baryani were basically thoroughly studied by Li Linlin.

……………

After reading the information for a while, Li Forest received an application for crocodile Yun to connect the video......

Soon the face with a high value was displayed on the screen.

"Oba, I'm so tired, we've had a lot of concerts and announcements this month...... I hate it, you put on your clothes. ”

Crocodile Yun thunderbolt bar, halfway through speaking, he saw Li Forest shirtless and exposed his chest muscles, and suddenly became shy.

"Well, I don't want to cancel the contract when I start the concert, I have a lot of money now, and it's no problem to support you. No, the heating here is a little hot, blushing or something, it's not like you haven't seen it......"

Li Linlin complained to Crocodile Yun about the heating here shirtless, she should be in the room by herself, and there are no other members of the girl group, so Li Linlin will not take it seriously.

Toronto in winter is worthy of being the north, it is freezing outside, minus 3 degrees, and the heating in the hotel room is too hot, Li Forest takes off his shirt to feel not so hot.

"You have to save a lot of money, you can't waste it, artists and players are all youth, and we have to spend a lot of money in the future......"

After hearing Li Linlin's words, Crocodile Yun frowned, worrying about Zhong Zhong's future consumption of the two.

She knows that the income of the player will not be high after retirement, and if she is not a star, her income will also drop, so the next life and consumption of the two must be controlled, and they cannot spend extravagantly.

Crocodile Yun will put down layers of disguise in front of Li Linlin, and restore the nature of that kind of woman, not a goddess, but an ordinary woman who is careful about life.

Li Linlin didn't interfere with her calculations, he would have more money in the future than this Nizi imagined, and he really didn't need to worry about money, so he could only answer: "Well, I know." ”

Crocodile Yun saw that Li Forest didn't want to worry about money, so he didn't talk about it anymore and talked about other things.

"Now many variety shows in China have invited me over, and I'm thinking about whether to go, those variety shows Oba should have watched them, hehe, your fans want me to participate."

As Girls' Generation's popularity soared, so did Crocodile Yoon's fame. Li Linlin is not on a variety show, and his fans and fans have no way to start if they want to know the life of their idols up close, so they only encourage them to find Crocodile Yun.

Li Forest is different from Yao Ming, Li Forest was born with the attributes of the entertainment industry.....

Good image, capable frame, full aura, and TM can sing, these skills all have their own topics, which are easy to cause a lot of gossip traffic.

"Haha, go ahead, go ahead, they are stupid and have a lot of money....."

Li Forest knew that before the "Korean Restriction Order" came out, Korean celebrities were basically held in China in the past, and maybe someone would kneel down to them and worship them or something!

"Hmph, Oba is stupid, they're not stupid, I'm a good deal, if I go, they will definitely let me connect with you live to play games and answer questions or something, please one for two."

Crocodile Yun felt that if the variety show could make her relationship with Li Forest recognized by most Chinese, then she would definitely go, so that she felt that the pressure on the two would be much less in the future.

"Hmmm! No problem, two copies of the money! Otherwise, don't do ......"

"You're too much, pit them like this!"

......

The two videotaped for more than an hour, and because Li Forest had to get up early tomorrow to train, the two ended the video call.

...............................

On the evening of November 18.

Air Canada Centre Gymnasium!

In the NBA regular season, the Ohrahoma City Thunder took on the Toronto Raptors on the road.

Due to the growing popularity and brutal style of play of the Thunder Sanshao, the stadium that can accommodate 19,800 spectators is almost full, and Li Linlin also saw many Chinese wearing his jersey to cheer him on.

Before the game, Li Linlin attended a dinner organized by the Chinese community, and Li Linlin's outstanding performance on the court undoubtedly made many Chinese proud.

Now more and more Americans and Canadians know that Li Forest is also from China, and as long as they chat with Chinese, they will almost mention Li Linlin, which makes many Chinese who do not watch the game also forced to start learning about Li Linlin's deeds.

...................

After the start of the game.

The Toronto Raptors, playing at home, looked very uncomfortable.

Because their offense and defense have been thoroughly studied by the well-prepared Thunder Sanshao.

The Raptors' defense has no bond between them, and they always have to go between double guards and leaks, or they don't help at all, allowing their opponents to swing between breakouts.

The Raptors' defensive position is very forward, the interior line is empty, and the outside wings always leak space, so they are slow to deal with the off-ball run, so they let KD and Westbrook cut in from the first quarter.

Shuangshao completed many powerful dunks at the beginning of the game, directly pulling the score away.

And the Raptors' offense.

Calderon and Turkoglu were always cornered by the Thunder after a screen, and by the time Calderon and Turkoglu could start passing, the Thunder had already switched positions.

So all of the Raptors' offense ended up with only a few routines. Bosh hit a 45-degree back, Bayani received the ball and attacked, Turkoglu jumped directly from both wings, and DeRozan cut in.

But these styles of play are very dependent on the three-point shot's containment on the outside, and the Raptors' three-point shooting performance is extremely poor, and the shooters' hands seem to be frozen in the cold winter.

The Raptors are in such a state that they are at a disadvantage against the Thunder, who have won three in a row.

Since the second quarter, the Thunder have been speeding up on the offensive end! Speed up again! Replace defense with offense, reduce the Raptors' offensive advantage to the minimum, and you can see the figure of Sanshao running throughout the game.

As soon as Raptors star Bosh hit with the ball on his back, Westbrook and Lee Forest went up to the crazy bag.

Since the Raptors have a large number of newcomers and Turkoglou as a new playmaker, the Raptors' tacit understanding of positioning, jumpers, and covers is very rusty, and it is not surprising that this situation caused the Raptors to lose this game.

After the referee's whistle blew, the final score was fixed at 80-101, the Raptors were defeated at home, and the Thunder won 4 consecutive victories!

The Raptors' Bosh had 20 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks, and the statistics were barely passable, but the shooting percentage of 7-of-20 shooting and 6 turnovers were also touching. Turkoglu had 11 points and six assists, and Bariani had 13 points and six rebounds.

On the Thunder's side, Durant continued to score 30+ points, scoring 31 points and 11 rebounds. Westbrook had 18 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds to make a triple-double, while Lee Forest had 28 points, 6 assists and 2 rebounds, and the trio combined for 77 points, once again showing their dominance on the offensive end.

After winning the Toronto game, the Thunder immediately set off for Orlando, where they will challenge the Orlando Magic, who are currently second in the East and have Howard.
