Chapter 188: 15 points in a single section

Chapter 188 has 15 points in a single section

The Timberwolves lost to the Atlanta Hawks, who were third in the East, to the delight of the chasing Thunder behind them.

They caught up with the pace of the Timberwolves one step closer, and the Thunder Shuangshao, who had an explosive mentality, both went berserk in the subsequent game, directly crushing the old Spurs with an inexplicable super offensive wave.

This made Li Shihao, who was far away in Minnesota, surprised and delighted.

The Spurs are so old and spicy that you'd be hard-pressed to find an opponent in the league who can beat him, and the team's offensive and defensive tempo has always been slow.

Their roster is aging significantly, and while the veterans bring them more game experience, they also lack more energy and explosiveness, making them more difficult to get into shape than the rest of the league.

It's not uncommon to see this in the long regular season, with an offensive powerhouse like the Phoenix Suns getting into shape early at the start of the season, leading the league in the first place in the West.

The San Antonio Spurs, on the other hand, were slow, like old men on crutches, moving forward step by step in the regular season at the speed of a tortoise.

Finally, in the middle and late stages of the season, you will find a strange phenomenon, the Spurs have slowly climbed into the top eight in the West at some point, and the form is surprisingly good, and many strong teams in the league have been knocked out by them.

Li Shihao was really pleasantly surprised, and the surprise was that the Russian City Thunder team won another victory against the Spurs, and the pace of catching up with them was one point closer, and the joy was that the powerful Spurs lost another game, and they also lost a victory, and returned to the same starting point.

This also made Li Shihao secretly vigilant in his heart, there were too many accidents in the long regular season, and the young Thunder team's collective outburst on the outside belonged to one of them. The Thunder's perimeter shooter talent is really among the top in the league, and few teams have been able to gather as many talented perimeter stars as the Thunder.

The Spurs, which are low-key grandmaster-level teams in the West, lost to the young Thunder team, and were completely blinded by the unreasonable style of play of the Thunder.

After a full day of rest in Minnesota, the Timberwolves traveled to Oklahoma to face the Thunder again.

Get off the plane. The Timberwolves players were "warmly" welcomed by the Thunder fans, and the city was filled with an air of unwelcome.

Because of the last time the Timberwolves defeated the Thunder and regained the eighth place in the West, the Russian City Thunder have been hostile to the Timberwolves players so far, especially Li Shihao.

For the inspirational story of the Chinese American kid that has been spread all over the country, Oklahoma is one of the cities with the strongest resistance in the United States outside of Dallas.

The league's newcomers haven't made the playoffs since the team's predecessor, the Seattle SuperSonics, relocated to Oklahoma and renamed the Thunder. This is their second season, and it's also a very promising year for them, and Oklahoma Thunder fans have poured too much emotion into this team that belongs to them, and they hope that the Thunder can make the playoffs in the West.

That night, the Timberwolves were booed as soon as they played, and the fans in this arena abandoned politeness and sanity and chose to respond to the Timberwolves in an unfriendly way.

Li Shihao and the others were honored to feel the treatment of the devil's home field again, and this time there was no adverse reaction from high altitude. But it was accompanied by non-stop boos from the audience, and the Timberwolves players only needed to score one goal each. There will be fans booing, much to the annoyance of the young Timberwolves players.

In addition, the league obviously wants to make this playoff chase more interesting, not expecting a premature end, and giving the Russian City Thunder a little benefit, so that their home whistle has more "privileges".

The Timberwolves' interior line is big and bitter. In the face of Westbrook and James Harden's combined breakthrough, coupled with the bias of the referee's scale, Marc Gasol and Kevin Love were plagued by fouls.

The Thunder have made so many free throws, some of which are even controversial and should not have been awarded at all!

Li Shihao did not sit idly by and watch all this. Excluded, he chose to use his personal ability to open up the situation.

Maybe it's been two or three years too late, and someone has forgotten the fact that he used to be a shooting guard, when he was in a small town in California, his unknown origin, and he was a yellow man who led his high school alma mater to the state basketball league with his personal strength, relying on his scoring ability.

Maybe after entering the NBA, Li Shihao gradually gave up his scoring ability and began to gradually turn to control the rhythm, but he still has the desire to score in his bones!

In Oklahoma, he apparently has no pent-up desires!

He chose to break out!

Li Shihao turned on his personal offensive mode in the third quarter, facing Westbrook's defense, he directly pulled out his hand without warning, with a little back-tilt arc, and Westbrook, who was caught off guard, didn't even use the big method of sealing his eyes, and could only watch the basketball fly away.

"Huh!"

Dip the basketball into the hoop and score three points!

Seeing that Li Shihao was furious, Westbrook did not show weakness, after Kevin Durant's outside jumper missed, Westbrook killed directly from under the basket, using his keen judgment of basketball landing point and arm span, successfully grabbed the rebound in the front court, and directly scored with amazing momentum, full of violent beauty.

At the end of the third quarter, Li Shihao ran out of the empty space on the bottom line, and the sharp-eyed Kevin Lefu directly passed the ball to Li Shihao at the three-point line of the bottom line.

The Thunder fans in the audience were obviously stunned, they didn't expect Li Shihao to turn on the individual offensive mode, in their expectations, isn't the Chinese kid a bastard type player, will only rely on excellent teammates, shouldn't his singles ability be worrying?

How did it get to the way it is?

Kevin Durant and Westbrook are also a little unacceptable, especially Westbrook, he didn't expect Li Shihao's scoring ability to be so powerful when it was fully released, although it is not as perverted as the rampaging Wade, but the continuous firepower of the round completely surpassed Wade, and the outside projection after shot, Li Shihao has scored 15 points in the entire third quarter.

With 15 points in a single quarter, Li Shihao once again refreshed his scoring ability and broke through people's perception of him.

In this game, in the end, the Timberwolves retreated, Li Shihao scored 45 points, and he used continuous firepower on the outside to fight against the Thunder Twin Stars, and won a victory with difficulty. (To be continued.) )
