James Harden's face was green and helpless.

Harden felt that the NBA was not quite what he imagined and was playing a little hard.

"Bang~"

Ron Artest's powerful body, with a savage force, slammed into James Harden's chest brutally.

Even if James Harden has the outstanding strength of guards of his age, he is still a little short of a top power player like Artest, and he was immediately pushed back two steps.

Artest was unhurried, his posture was slightly ugly and he threw his shot, and the basketball hit the board into the frame, and no one could cover it.

"........" James Harden let out a cloudy breath and looked depressed.

The Thunder's bench strength is average, and before James Harden grows up, he relies on Westbrook and Durant to take turns leading the team, and the only one who can really be regarded as a good player may be Nick Collison.

Nick Collison served as a bench interior for the Thunder last season, averaging 8.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game.

James Harden dribbles to the frontcourt and attacks himself with the ball.

At the top of the arc, he dribbled under his hips two times in a row, pretending to break through to the right, and turned to the left in front of his body, so as to clean up the defending Yudri.

Udri chased the defense from the side, and Harden shook his head and made a beautiful long pass.

If you can pass to the flank, of course, it is a very good second pass, but diagonally inward, suddenly a bird big man, gibbon-like arm dragonfly water, halfway interception of the ball away.

"Mistaken!"

Brooks showed a hint of dissatisfaction, what did James Harden do, why did the rookie pass such a dangerous ball?

The Thunder everyone turned around, and at this time Artest had already taken the lead, galloping to the frontcourt, and a beautiful two-handed clasp ended the attack.

Wang Ming used Artest as the core of the second team, Artest integrated offense and defense, led the team, and played like a fish in water.

This wave of offense forced Brooks to call a timeout again.

Kings fans are excited, since the new season, the Kings have been so strong, and it is effortless to beat the Thunder.

And Thunder fans can only console themselves with their lack of experience, the Thunder team has so many rookie players with high picks, and the future is still very bright, far from being comparable to the old churro combination of the Kings.

Then it came to the coaching, and the Thunder were silent.

In terms of on-court scheduling, the Thunder team has always been slower than the Kings, and all the tactics of the Kings are more targeted than the Thunder, so it can be said that Brooks's performance in this game is far inferior to Wang Mingming.

It's so clear that it's even visible to the naked eye, and there's no way to admit it.

Brooks arranged for Durant to attack with the ball, Durant dribbled and blatantly launched a death charge at Artest, Artest really didn't use much force, and Durant's own movements were deformed.

In the confrontation, it seemed that Durant was hit a lot, and the referee gave Artest a foul in line with the principle of home court.

Durant was able to get to the free-throw line.

This kind of scoring at a critical moment stopped the bleeding for the Thunder team in time.

The fans didn't understand, they just felt that the Thunder team had finally scored, and the pressure on them was a little less, withstanding the Kings' strong offense and defense.

Wang Mingming's eyes were like torches, and he waved his hand and motioned for Bosh to come over.

Chris Bosh staggered over and bowed his head, "Coach." ”

Wang Ming said: "Chris, the Thunder's interior defense is a big hole, Kostic is too slow, Jeff Green doesn't know how to defend the low post at all, if you let you attack, you should be easy to deal with these two people, right?" ”

Before the Thunder traded Jeff Green, the Thunder did have problems on the inside, and they were always hungry for a better, healthy interior player who could help the team defensively.

Chris Bosh was stunned for the first time when he saw the coach communicate with him in such a way, then nodded, "Of course there is no problem. ”

"If you look at the Thunder's interior, there's another important problem, which is that their rebounds are not good."

Wang Ming pointed to the court, and then gave Chris Bosh a permission and a new inclination: "If you are near the free throw line, I allow you to not retreat at the first time, but to scramble for frontcourt rebounds." ”

Wang Mingming's eyes flashed and he said with a smile.

Bosh was surprised in his heart, he had long heard that Wang Mingming's tactics were unique and extremely meticulous, but he didn't expect it to be the case, and even the frontcourt rebounding competition had to be privately asked to him alone.

Chris Bosh, who received Wang's advice tomorrow, was very excited and nodded, "No problem coach." ”

Wang nodded tomorrow, and then let Bosh return to the bench and wait for the moment.

The Kings bench players are playing well, and the Kings will let those benches play a little longer tomorrow.

Cosby, who had performed well in the preseason, was heavily targeted by Brooks, and Cosby never got a chance to shoot, running back and forth.

In the second half of the second quarter, Wang Tomorrow waved his hand and replaced all the main players.

Westbrook slammed into the Kings' basket, flew through the air, and threw the ball out.

The basketball was ridiculously off, and Kidd grabbed the rebound and waved the player to break fast.

The Kings counterattacked very quickly, DeRozan and Artest ran to the front court happily, especially the young DeRozan, and the Thunder players couldn't catch up.

Kidd made a long pass that spanned most of the court and found DeRozan running forward.

The ball was a good ball and a good pass, but DeRozan's hand slipped and the ball was not steady.

The basketball smashed on the surface of his feet, like a powerful volley, and kicked directly into the audience.

Wang Mingming's face is dark, and young players still need to hone and hone their skills.

DeRozan also realized that he had wasted a good opportunity, raised his arms, and took responsibility for his mistakes.

Looking back, the Thunder repeated their old tricks and got a free throw opportunity.

At this time, the score also caught up, and the difference narrowed to less than 10 points.

Kidd controlled the ball, blocked and unmarked, and tried to shoot a long-range two-pointer.

"Shoot three points, shoot two points!"

Wang Mingming's face was helpless, it was also an empty position, it was better to shoot three points, the two-point shooting rate was low, and the effect was very average.

Sure enough, Kidd's long two points were a little stronger, and he smashed on the back edge.

Bounced up, and a pair of large black hands suddenly appeared in the air.

On Jeff Green's head, with his long arms wrapped up, he grabbed the rebound.

"Offensive rebounds!"

Chris Bosh grabbed the offensive rebound to the exclamation of the fans in the stadium, and took advantage of the situation to get inside, bogged off, fooled Jeff Green, and then played a time difference and leaned on him to throw the ball.

He threw it casually, and the basketball stumbled into the net.

"Toot ~"

The whistle sounds.

If you score, you have to add a penalty.

The Thunder had a advantage for a while, but with Chris Bosh's frontcourt rebound two plus one, it disappeared again until the end of the second quarter, and it didn't make any waves.

Bosh somewhat admires the head coach's clever plan, the interior combination of Green and Kostic, this rebound should be grabbed casually!

After the start of the second half, Durant hit two three-pointers in a row, and the Thunder's offense improved.

But the Thunder's defense was still terrible, with problems inside and outside, and the two sides played 30-30 in the third quarter, and the Thunder still trailed by more than a dozen points.

In the full-court suppression, the Thunder finally failed to turn the tables and lost the game 92-106 in the home opener.
