Westbrook glanced at the basket, didn't react, and calmly walked over to receive Durant's serve.

Jogging to carry the ball across the half court, Westbrook's body muscles relaxed, but Addison had no doubt that the opponent's whole body muscles tensed up at the moment of breakthrough, and burst out with fierce power.

'The Great Turtle' breakthrough method is not static, with good ball control and anti-natural physical fitness, he can either look for opportunities by changing direction, or force the impact with a wide open and close. Because of this, Addison couldn't get the other party's idea, the two were almost the same in speed, but his tonnage and strength were weaker than Westbrook's.

Westbrook, who came to the top of the arc, slapped the basketball a few times in front of his body with both hands, and then the muscles of his whole body suddenly bulged and broke through to the right side! The ferocious explosiveness made him instantly erase the distance between him and Addison, and squeezed together with the equally fast-moving Chinese rookie!

Addison felt as if a high-speed off-road vehicle had crashed into him, and Westbrook was more powerful than Delon. Williams has done it all. Under the impact of the strong force, the body of the Chinese rookie couldn't help but stiffen for a moment, and he was overtaken by the opponent by half a body.

Fortunately, Addison's reaction was also very fast, and he followed his opponent closely and was not completely thrown away. Durant's brief cover allowed Westbrook to get away from the Heat's point guard in an instant. 'The Turtle' rushed inside, and his speed surprised Whiteside a bit, but the Heat center jumped up in time to get ready for the block.

Westbrook's physical talent was on full display at this time, and he actually squeezed Whiteside in the air without any deformation in his movements! Grabbing the basketball with his right hand, he drew a half-arc from bottom to top, dodged the opponent's block and picked the ball to the basket!

The basketball hit the rebound lightly and crashed into the net, and Westbrook landed and turned straight to the backcourt and ran backcourt, looking as if he wasn't hindered at all.

Addison rubbed his chest where he had just been knocked and his eyes were focused on Westbrook's No. 0 jersey. It was the first time he had seen a defender behave in a wrestling with Whiteside, this guy's body was terrifying, as if he had been blessed by a god......

"yes, that's what the Heat should be most worried about in this game, and Westbrook happens to be the type of Addison who is the least good at defending." Bill. Wharton looked at the court and said with interest, "Weight, strength, explosiveness...... Westbrook is already at the top of the No. 1 position, and he also has a very good back-to-back singles ability. It's as if Addison is now facing a more physically aggressive version of Delon. Williams, he's at an absolute disadvantage on the defensive end. ”

"I personally think Westbrook is more like Byron who doesn't like to shoot threes so much. Davis, of course, I can imagine Addison if he meets Byron in his prime. What would Davis be bullied into......" Drexler said with a laugh, "and he should be thankful that there aren't so many well-rounded point guards in the league right now. ”

Spoelstra looked at the court with some uneasiness, and from the round just now, he could already see that Addison's body was still far behind his opponent's. He's considering whether to use James. Ennis defends Westbrook, but is afraid that this change of presence will hurt Addison's pride.

After a little thought, Spoelstra decided to wait and see, after all, of all the players on the Heat team, only Addison could keep up with Westbrook in speed.

"You're going to have to gain more weight, first grade." Westbrook watched his opponent dribble over, grinned, "With your current strength, you can't stop me, but on the contrary, I can stop you." ”

As he spoke, Westbrook stepped forward and hit Addison with his body, and the strong force ran through the Chinese rookie, forcing him to take a step back with the ball. However, Westbrook did not press it thoroughly, and he was also speculating whether Addison was deliberately showing weakness, and whether the opponent would easily break through once he was posted.

The basketball was still bouncing up and down flexibly, and the opponent's power suppression didn't make Addison's dribbling messy. Bosh came up from the low post to cover, giving Addison room to break through.

Westbrook quickly got out of cover and tried to intercept his opponent from the three-point line. Addison's right hand slammed the basketball from behind to the left, accelerating towards the left edge of the paint area. Westbrook turned his center of gravity to keep up, while Ibaka, who was near the free throw line, adjusted his pace to help the defense.

But the basketball disappeared from Addison's hand in the next second and flew to Bosh, who was staying in the high position. 'Dragon' made a light jumper before Ibaka pounced back and scored two points.

In Wade's absence, Bosh is still the Heat's most consistent point of scoring, provided he can play a pick-and-roll with Addison.

Quietly running back into the half, Addison gestured to Ennis, who glanced at Andre in his opposite position. Robertson, agreed with the point guard's idea.

Addison carefully studied the Thunder's lineup before the game, and they had a big hole on the offensive end, which was Andre at the shooting guard position. Robertson. As a sophomore, Robertson deserves credit for his defensive prowess, and he often acts as the team's perimeter defensive spearhead. But Robertson's shooting was really bad, and he couldn't even shoot 25% of his three-point shots, and he didn't dare to shoot when he was in the open space on the court.

Now Andrey. Robertson is definitely not a qualified 3-and-D player, as all he can offer is defense, not three points......

So Addison motioned to James. Ennis focused more on helping himself defend Westbrook and letting go of Andre appropriately. Robertson. With his ability to join forces with Ennis, he should be able to somewhat limit the rampage performance of the 'Great Turtle'.

Westbrook, who came to the frontcourt, did the same trick as he did, using his strength and explosiveness to force Addison. The Chinese point guard's chest was sore from being pounded hard by the opponent, but he still stood up to Westbrook and didn't let him rush into the interior easily.

Just as the Thunder point guard rushed into the three-point line, James on the right wing. Ennis pounced as fast as he could, and with Addison, he pinched Westbrook. The 'Great Turtle', who had fallen into the encirclement in a hurry, suddenly stopped his steps, and he couldn't rush out of the door between the two, so he had to step back and pass the ball to André before Ennis pressed up. Robertson.

Robertson looked at his position and was hesitant to make a move. Ennis was more than two positions away from him at this point, but Roberson didn't dare to shoot and instead passed the ball back towards Westbrook.

At this moment, Addison quickly turned around and stuck in front of the 'Great Turtle', reaching out to cut off the pass before Westbrook could react!

"Steal! Opportunities for Miami natives!! ”

The pointed basketball rolled outward, and both Addison and Westbrook wanted to get the basketball as soon as possible, but the basketball was lost to James. Ennis strode over and grabbed it, and dribbled straight down!

After so many games, basically Miami's players have a knee-jerk instinct for counter-attacks. James. Ennis rode through the half, scoring two points for the Heat again with a two-handed dunk. At this time, Westbrook and Durant were entangled in the Heat players' positions and failed to return to the defense at the first time.

"It's understandable that the Heat chose Ennis to help guard Westbrook. If my opponent has Andre in the team. With a player like Robertson who can let go of the air indefinitely, I will also adopt a defensive strategy that is at the heart of the defense. Drexler looked at Robertson, who had an embarrassed expression and signaled to his teammates for a mistake, and his embarrassment could be felt from the live broadcast seat.

"Robertson has been very good defensively, and he has been tasked with defending the outside core of the opposition at key moments last season, which has been used to free up all of Westbrook's energy to attack." Bill. Wharton recognized the Thunder's defensive performance as a shooting guard, "but he has to work on his projection training, at least to make his shooting ability up to the scoring guard line." Robertson can neither convert Westbrook and Durant's breakaway shots into assists on the offensive end, nor can he help the core of the team open up space on the offensive end...... I can't even call him a qualified role player. ”

Westbrook isn't the brute guy that many people have the impression of only using his body to break through, in fact, he is very keen to observe the game and is very good at finding the best defensive holes through observation.

At the beginning of the game, it was because he found that Addison belonged to his more restrained point guard, so Westbrook chose to force a breakthrough to create damage. Now that the opponent has adopted the strategy of helping to defend and trap, Westbrook will naturally not rush over and fall into the opponent's trap stupidly until the critical moment.

Coming to the top of the arc, Westbrook's gaze scanned the entire half. Kevin, who has not taken the initiative to attack before. Durant landed in the bottom corner and then suddenly accelerated to cut inside. Deng turned around a beat slower and almost let the extremely long Durant cut in, and he immediately moved his feet to defend.

But Durant's cut was nothing more than a false swing, and after attracting Deng's shift in gravity, he turned around at breakneck speed and ran towards the left corner area.

Westbrook immediately passed the basketball over, and Durant received the ball in the high post on the left side without hesitation and jumped up to shoot!

Ruhr. Deng tried his best to pounce on the block, but Durant, who is 6'11" tall and has an arm span of more than 230 centimeters, was very high, and Deng's block had no effect on him.

"!!Shh The arc drawn by the basketball is relatively steep, but it drills into the net with precision, like a missile whose trajectory has been predetermined for a long time, leaving no mistake.

Seeing blood seal the throat, calm and sharp...... That's the first impression of Addison's top scorer in the league......
