Chapter 364: Two Fists Can Beat Four Hands
Although Durant failed to prevent Hoggist, it was also a delay to Hougist's fight, when Haugist burst into the interior Adams also returned to the basket, in the face of Adams's block, this time Haugist did not attack, but pulled the back pass, and threw the ball to Nick in the opposite corner. Young, Nick Young received the ball and jumped up to hit a three-pointer,
"Wow, the 5-point difference is gone!" Hougist grimaced at Durant. Durant, for his part, continued to ignore Haugist's taunts.
Wei Shao dribbled to the frontcourt, ignored Durant's request, and continued to work alone, this time he successfully broke into the interior with Adams' cover, and threw a shot to overtake the score again, and Wei Shao still had an angry expression on his face after the goal.
Over there, Wei Shao spread his wings and kept angry, but here Haogist had a calm face, unlike the kind of wind and clouds that Guo Degang said in Yu Qian's whole body vibrating with his mobile phone, Haogist was really calm and calm. After dribbling to the frontcourt, Turner covered Haugist at the top of the arc, but Hougist didn't play himself, but handed the ball from behind to the moving Nick. Young and Saggy took advantage of the combined cover of Hougist and Turner to rush to the elbow area for a pull-up jump shot and hit the basket again, and the score on both sides began to rise alternately.
Durant reluctantly sent the ball to Wei Shao, and the two came to the frontcourt, Durant thought to himself, you just scored a ball, this ball should be given to me, right? And Wei Shao thought in his heart that I had just scored one, and I should hit another one while my hand was hot. So Wei Shao continued to use the cover at the top of the arc to force the inside line, but this time Adams was whistled by the referee for a moving screen foul.
After the dead ball, the Thunder replaced Morrow with Robertson, and the Lakers did not make personnel adjustments, and the game started again, and Hoggist continued to control the ball at the top of the arc and continued to hand over to Nick. Young, hoping to take advantage of his hot hand to let him score a few more goals and share some of the pressure for himself, but it's a pity that Nick. Yang missed a three-point shot this time, and the ball flew directly off the bottom edge of the basket.
The Thunder served the ball, and Willis passed the ball to Adams at the top of the arc before halftime, and it looked like the Thunder were ready to play a tactical match. Ibaka came out to catch the ball and then distributed it to Wei Shao, who ran to the wing, Durant walked from the basket to the middle and ran back to the top of the arc to catch the ball, Ibaka and Adams seemed to be trying to make an elevator door cover for Durant.
But Hoggist played the characteristics of the Chinese crowding the elevator, shouting in Chinese "Wait!" Then he slid sideways between the two and continued to stick to Durant, who had no choice but to pass the ball to Ibaka, who was blocked both Turner and Randle for Ibaka, and Ibaka hit a long two-point jumper.
Jeremy Lin dribbled to the frontcourt, borrowed Turner outside the three-point line to cover and burst inside, and moved a step sideways at the free throw line to prepare for a stop-and-go jumper, but Adams pounced with his long arm, and Jeremy Lin hurriedly distributed the ball to Hoggist on the wing, who held the ball and made two three-threat moves, and saw Durant's cautious expression and suddenly felt bored, and returned the ball to Jeremy Lin at the top of the arc.
Jeremy Lin was still in a misplaced position to face Adams, and at this time he was full of confidence, and a crotch pull ball changed direction past Adams to easily score a one-handed basket inside, and in the air he also conceded Ibaka who was defending frontally. But just when Jeremy Lin was a little proud in his heart, Ibaka flew Jeremy Lin's layup fan out of the baseline from the side.
The Lakers kicked off at the bottom line of the frontcourt, there were 7 seconds left in the offensive time, Randle served to Jeremy Lin in the bottom corner, Jeremy Lin had no chance to break through, and returned the ball to the wing Hougist, who had 5 seconds left in the offensive time after receiving the ball, and Hougist didn't want to shake the pot again, so he winked at Durant, smiled evilly, and threw a jump shot directly.
Durant jumped up and interfered, because Haugist's arm span was slightly advantageous, and he took a backward posture, Durant knew that he would definitely not be able to block directly head-on, so he chose to seal the eyes of the defensive method, but Haugist had already calculated the strength of the shot before he shot, even if the vision was completely blocked by Durant, he still threw the ball into the basket by feeling.
The Thunder went to the frontcourt again to play the tactic of scoring just now, Adams responded with the arc, and Ibaka received the ball high and transferred to the wing Willis, but this time Durant was stuck in the paint area by Haugist and couldn't come out to receive the ball. However, Adams is also a person who knows how to improvise, he saw that Durant was blocked, so he cut directly to the basket, Hougist and Durant blocked Turner's pursuit of the line in the paint area, so Wei Shao directly hung the basket, Adams jumped up under the empty basket to catch the ball and directly back to the basket to collect two points.
In the second quarter, at 5 minutes and 18 seconds, the two sides fought again to 41 draws, and this goal was actually the first assist sent by Wei Shao in this game. Jeremy Lin dribbled to the front court and gave Turner the top of the arc. Hougist lifted up from the bottom corner to the wing, and Turner hit the ball and stepped inside the wing three-point line to set up a cover for Hoggist. Hoggist took cover to the top of the arc and broke through from the middle to the basket.
Durant bypassed Turner's cover and intercepted Hoggist at the free-throw line, and Hougist was forced to stop the ball, at which point Turner had slipped to the basket, but Adams went around the front defense to interfere with Hougist's passing route. After stopping the ball, Hoggist kept lifting the ball and shaking, as if he was going to hang and pass to the basket, and as if he was going to shoot, and after three or four repetitions, he finally deceived the impatient Durant, and Hoggist only jumped up at this time and rubbed a foul on Durant.
Durant is remorseful in his heart, if he can hold on for even one more second, Turner under the basket will definitely be whistled for a three-second offense, and he has to admire Hoggist's composure and calmness like the five-time champion who has been in the league for 20 years and sits on the sidelines in a suit, can endure to such an extent.
Shashewski removed Jeremy Lin and suffered from reeds, looking at the bench worried, Kobe Bryant needs to rest from time to time this season, and he can play when he is fine, but he is still a little stretched in the guard line for a round, and it seems that he has to find a way to find a qualified instant dual-ability guard or forward swing man.
Hoggist hit both free throws again, and now he's hit 121 consecutive free throws so far this season, and a new record player has been born. Willis continued to break through with Adams' cover in the front court, while Ibaka slid from the low post on the weak side to the bottom corner on the strong side. Westbrook reached the free throw line and distributed the ball to Ibaka in the same corner, while Robertson blocked the pursuing Randle for Ibaka in the low post.
Ibaka received the ball and shot a three-point jumper, but the shot was obviously short, Randle bypassed Roberson to the outside because he insisted on saving Ibaka's shot, but exposed the basket to Roberson, Ibaka's sheeptail three-point shot smashed on the side of the basket and rebounded into Roberson's arms, Roberson was in front of the basket, and Adams helped him jam Turner, even if he didn't know how to attack, he easily got up and put the basket to cut down two points.
Reed dribbled to the front court to give Randle to the elbow area, and then ran to the bottom corner of the same side, the weak side Haugist went to the top of the arc to receive the ball, borrowed Randle to cover and came to the wing, Randle went to the basket, Hougist just had a passing angle on the wing, and then he hit the ground and passed to the low post, Randle received the ball with his back to the basket on the sideline of the paint area and turned around for a layup, but was capped down by Adams.
Wei Shao grabbed the rebound and accelerated directly to the frontcourt, Wei Shao is indeed an American-style muscle sports car, invincible in straight line acceleration, he swept through the Lakers' defense, until he rushed to the paint area and ejected and scored with both hands, the scoreboard above the basket was trembling and shaky, and it was only then that Wei Shao's face seemed calmer.
Reed dribbled to the front court and gave the ball directly to the wing Hougist, Turner went to the wing outside the three-point line to cover Hoggist, and Randle also moved from the low post on the strong side to the bottom corner on the weak side to open up space for Hoggist to break through. Horgist held the ball and went to the outside to dribble until the low post was close to the baseline and rebounded diagonally before throwing off the switching Adams. When he was about to break out of the boundary, Hougist made a quick stop and turned to shoot a jumper, and the ball crossed a high arc, crossed the rebound and fell into the basket.
This kind of rebounding shot is one of Kobe's characteristics, and now the replica ninja Hougist can easily reproduce it, and it is also a blessing for the fans to continue this action in Staples, and this beautiful mid-range shot has also received enthusiastic cheers from the audience.
Wei Shao dribbled to the frontcourt, and Durant wanted to cut to the basket from the wing, but was blocked by Haugist, so Durant moved from the wing to the top of the arc. Wei Shao gave the ball to Durant at the top of the arc, and Hougist taunted while lowering his center of gravity to watch out for Durant's movements: "Do you know your new nickname in China? ”
"I don't want to know, you definitely don't have good words in your mouth!" Durant said coldly.
"The nickname given to you by Chinese netizens was not given by me, besides, did I say a bad word about you?" Hougist looked at Durant with innocent eyes.
"You haven't said a word, but you have said more than a hundred? I'll listen to you tonight! It's annoying. Durant gave Haugist a blank look.
Hoggist pouted, "If you don't want to hear me, you still have to tell you, after all, you have the right to know the truth, Chinese netizens now call you Du Fifteen." ”
“15? Why 15? My number has always been 35! Durant was still intrigued by Hoggist's words.
Hoggist smirked: "How many players do you think there are in a team? ”
"15, what's the matter, does this have anything to do with the nicknames given to me by Chinese netizens?" Durant is still unclear.
"Isn't that a true reflection of your status in the team? I always thought it was a joke from the fans, but when I played you again today, I realized that what the fans said was true! How many times have you touched the ball in the second quarter for so long? Hoggist was desperate to use words to hit Durant to distract him, but seeing the change in Durant's eyes, Hoggist suddenly got up and tried to cut the ball.
But Durant also reacted quickly, raising his hand directly to shoot, and Haugist cut on Durant's arm and was whistled for a foul by the referee. Durant sneered: "Don't try to play psychological warfare with me, I've been playing in this league for eight years, do you think you can affect my mentality as a rookie?" ”
Hoggist's true intentions were seen through, and he was also tricked by Durant's calculations, and ordinary people will feel more or less embarrassed when they encounter this situation, but Hoggist also doesn't want to face to a certain extent, instead of blushing, he naturally pretends to be indifferent, "What I said is the truth, I don't believe you can search for yourself after the game, if you can't understand Chinese, you can find your sneaker designer Zhang Chuanxi to help you translate, he is Chinese, I remember." As for this foul, I don't care, the referee will never give a shooting foul anyway! ”
Sure enough, the referee determined through the video replay system that it was Haugist who cut to Durant's hand first before Durant made the shooting action on the fly, so he just gave an ordinary foul. But Hougist's words planted a small seed in Durant's heart, making him take a hard look at his place on the team when he can't catch the ball.
The Thunder team restarted the ball, Wei Shao continued to dribble from the top of the arc, and Wei Shao knocked down the reeds in the process of dribbling and breaking through, and several other players of the Lakers stopped their defensive actions to appeal to the referee, and Wei Shao was also a little embarrassed and threw the ball to Adams, but the referee did not make any indication, the time on the timer was still flowing, since the referee did not blow, he could continue to play! So Adams casually threw the ball to the basket, and because there was no interference, Adams easily hit the throw, and the referee waved for two points. The stadium erupted in boos, and soon it developed into a uniform "Referee Sucks!" slogan.
Turner continued to respond in the frontcourt, Haugist singled out Durant after receiving the ball, and repeatedly played several blocking and dismantling cooperation with Turner but failed to shake off Durant, so Hougist directly dribbled and forced a breakthrough, and made a jumper at the free throw line, this time Durant's fingertips did not touch the ball, obviously interfering with the flight trajectory of the ball, and the ball bounced off the rebound directly, and even the basket was not touched.
Ibaka took the rebound and handed it to Westbrook, who bounced again and accelerated straight to the frontcourt, this time with Reed and Nick. Young teamed up to stop him at the free throw line, but Wei Shao passed the ball out of his hand unapprehended, and Ibaka, who followed up in the back row, caught the ball and jumped up to complete a flying dunk. Young gave Ibaka a hard hand pull as he passed him, but instead of stopping Ibaka from taking off, he also paid for a foul.
Ibaka hit a steady shot, and after scoring this 2+1, the Thunder led by 5 points again, and this time it was Durant's turn to be proud, "What's the matter, the 5-point difference is still there, no matter how hard you try, it won't help!" ”
Haugist's heart was like a rock, and he asked expressionlessly, "Does this difference have anything to do with you?" Du Fifteen, think more about how to elevate your status to Du Fiteen is the problem you should care about, right? ”
