As it turned out, the Magic's resilience was pretty good. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After the Thunder hit a 6-0 run in the opening game, the Magic were able to gain a foothold, and Tobias Harris hit back-to-back jumpers to catch up with the score.

The game gradually entered a state of see-saw.

Li Dong didn't have many opportunities to shoot, he played a role as a relay more often, and Westbrook's defense was very good, basically following Li Dong's vicinity, so that Li Dong had no chance to vacate.

It wasn't until the end of the first official timeout in the first quarter and after the two sides returned to the court that Li Dong ushered in his first chance to perform.

It was a split after Oladipo's breakthrough, and under the pressure of Robertson, the ball was a little off, and Westbrook and Li Dong pounced on the basketball at the same time.

In the end, Li Dong, who had an advantage in arm span, took the lead in catching the basketball with his left hand.

It can be seen that Li Dong's hand is very big, and the basketball is in his hand, just like a normal person holding a volleyball.

After Li Dong took back the basketball, the two of them had a hedge in the air.

Li Dong snorted, and spun the basketball in the direction where it was flying, his long arm was like a compass, twisting his waist and turning around. The huge impact made Li Dong a little unstable when he landed on the ground, and then, he took the ball to the ground, and the basketball quickly slapped a few times on the floor, the frequency was extremely fast, and his body immediately found a sense of balance.

It's just this delay, Westbrook also adjusted, stretched out his arms, and opened up the defensive position.

Li Dong didn't have time to think about it, took a diagonal step with his left foot, pulled the basketball back, and the terrifying long arm shot out from his crotch, and the basketball appeared on Li Dong's vacated left hand like magic, and kept rotating in the palm of his hand, like a fancy move.

Westbrook was stunned for a moment, maybe he was a little confused by the collision just now, and subconsciously turned his body sideways.

At this time, Li Dong's body did not pause at all, his left leg bent inward, his right foot quietly took a step, both hands hung down at the same time, and his left hand and right hand almost touched the floor!

In such a small space, the rate at which a basketball refracts on the floor is frighteningly fast.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Li Dong completed the change of direction in front of the ground against the floor, and Westbrook's defense had lost the opportunity, and he couldn't adjust his center of gravity at all, and watched in amazement at this little rookie to show off his operation in front of him.

There was only one word that flashed through his mind at the moment - crotch crossstep!

When Westbrook turned his head, Li Dong had already rushed into the penalty area, he strode on the outer edge of the big penalty area, grabbed the basketball with both hands and placed it behind his head, his legs bounced as if out of the earth's gravity, and after drifting in the air for a distance, he slammed the basketball with both hands and smashed it down!

"Peng!"

The loud sound was transmitted through the speakers above the backboard, crisp and short.

Li Dong grabbed the hoop with both hands, and the hoop was violently deformed under his frantic pulling, and the No. 1 behind him appeared so eye-catching on the big screen above for the first time.

“OMG！ What a beautiful cross-step, what a brutal clasp of hands! Li Dong, a 19-year-old shooting guard from the Magic! "Kevin? Harlan let out a trademark exclamation.

Clark on the side? Kellogg also had a hellish look on his face, and exclaimed vigorously, "What a beautiful move!" ”

Li Dong jumped off the basket, and the bench and the audience were already boiling.

It's no wonder that Iverson and Carter at their peak had so many fans, and such wonderful dribbles and dunks set the entire Wajovia Center on fire in an instant.

"Who's this yellow-skinned kid?" Many pseudo-fans still don't know Li Dong and ask the senior fans around them.

"That's our Li from China, and he's the No. 5 show this year!" Many fans wearing the No. 1 jersey proudly said that they were honored.

On the court, Durant and Westbrook looked at each other.

"What a nice lad." Durant exclaimed sincerely, in an old-fashioned tone.

"Haven't you fully recovered yet?" Westbrook heard Durant's off-string meaning and asked with a frown.

"I'll fight, you keep it." Westbrook said.

Durant nodded, "Okay." ”

The Thunder has no feeling for Li Dong's astonishing dunk, players of the level of Durant and Westbrook are not at all a person who can easily beat the fighting spirit with a dunk or a wonderful pass, they are used to seeing strong winds and waves, and their hearts are extremely calm.

Thunder coach, Billy? Donovan's tactical arrangement is very simple, and the positional offense is that Westbrook and Durant take turns to break through the ball, and occasionally cooperate with Ibaka's blocking and pick-and-roll once or twice. In the current run-in period of the Thunder team, this is indeed the most suitable tactic.

In fact, just after seeing the speed of Durant and Westbrook's fast break, Spoelstra already had a preliminary idea to imitate the defensive counterattack of the U.S. national team and turn the transition offense into an important scoring method for the team. Of course, in the current basketball world, it is still mainly positional offense, and he still doesn't dare to put forward this idea, but slowly explores it.

After the first quarter, Magic fans at home were delighted to find that the team had a close score with the championship favorites, 35-31, and also led by 4 points.

Li Dong felt the intensity of the confrontation in the NBA game for the first time, he played eight minutes in the first quarter, but it was like playing half a game in college, not only the consumption of offense, but also the consumption of physical strength on the defensive end, and he had to spend a lot of effort to defend in each wave of offense.

Skiles naturally saw the uneven distribution of Li Dong's physical strength, but he didn't plan to teach his disciples these small things, as long as he played more games, these would naturally understand.

Li Dong rested until the end of the second quarter, when there were only 4 minutes of play on the court.

The Magic led the Thunder by 14 points, 67-53.

Li Dong came on the field to replace Elfried, who performed averagely? Payton, this guy is currently only 2 of 9 shots, and his efficiency is relatively low.

"Hey, boy." As soon as Westbrook saw Li Dong on the court, like a sleepy lion, he suddenly came to his senses.

Li Dong felt a chill in his heart, feeling that Westbrook had a strange vision.

The two stood cross-legged, waiting for kickoff. The camera focused to the middle divider, Li Dong stood there and was obviously half a head taller than the 1.91-meter-tall Westbrook, and the myth of the official Li Dong's height of 1.93 meters was shattered.

Durant, who was a small forward on the sidelines, teed off, and Iguodala interfered with waving his long arms.

Li Donggang wanted to delay Westbrook's catch, but suddenly felt that someone pushed him around his waist, and his body was unstable all of a sudden, and he hurriedly recovered his center of gravity.

Li Dong hates a toothache, these old fritters!

Westbrook was in good spirits and ready to teach the newcomers a lesson.

He looked up and glanced at someone on the inside, and Ibaka, who had joined the team in the same year, ran out with a fart, and then made a blocking pose not far from Li Dong.

"Bang! Ibaka! Li Dong was blocked by Ibaka, and Westbrook nimbly bypassed Elton and immediately entered the heart of the Magic.

Oladipo shrank in and didn't take two steps before the basketball whistled over his head like a cannonball.

"!" He turned his head and went back, Anthony, who was tall and had long arms? Morrow catches the ball and makes a jumper, hit!

Oladipo is unhappy, there are not only positive data in the NBA, but also reverse data, like this kind of score of the player, each team will record it in detail, and the score of the player who makes his defense increase by three points for no reason, which will definitely affect his defensive evaluation.

"You guard against it, you can't prevent me from guarding against it." Oladipo shouted at Li Dong.

Li Dong's eyes widened, he didn't speak, and retreated, indeed, the biggest problem with this defense was him, and he had nothing to say.

It's just a scene of small friction between the two, and he can't help but have a headache when Vucevic sees it, Oladipo is the team's main new star, and Li Dong's potential is comparable to the sky, both of them are the team's main puzzle pieces, and now it seems that they are not very harmonious with each other.

No one noticed the small friction, and under the noisy sound, I thought it was just an ordinary communication between two people from a distance.

Magic offense, Tobias? Harris fell to the low post singles.

After he took the basketball in the low post, he turned around and turned into a face-frame attack, and it was Serge Ibaka who defended him.

After Harris took the basketball to the point, he played a crotch with a numb game, and then stepped back to make a small jumper, which actually used an outside move to finish the offense.

After this kind of outside action is used by the inside line, the lethality is particularly huge, and the basketball arc is very positive, falling into the basket steadily, which is an eye-opener for Li Dong, who saw this scene...... (To be continued.) )
