After entering the third season of his career, Durant also faintly stepped into the ranks of superstars.

So far, he ranks second on the scoring list with an average of 31.3 points per game. In terms of age, he is setting a new record for the youngest Mr. Scorer in the NBA time and time again. His growth is also huge, and under his leadership, the Thunder's record is rising, even against many old powerhouses.

At the June draft, the Thunder, who held the pick, picked the "Mr. Beard" from Arizona - Harden. It was as if the Thunder had found the final piece of the puzzle, completing the seamless transition from starter to bench. The name of the three young thunderers gradually started in the northwest region.

This is Harden's first visit to Minnesota, and the beard is with the team.

Durant sat silently on the plane, and he looked a little serious. Harden stared at Durant, who had turned his head to look out the window for a long time, staring at Durant with big round eyes, and couldn't help but be full of curiosity about Durant's good friend. "What kind of person is this? It can make Boss Kevin care so much about this game. “

The Thunder's cabin was a bit dull, and Harden, while he liked to be lively, wasn't the kind of person who talked a lot. Similarly, the same is true for Durant and Westbrook, where several main players don't talk, and no one speaks, everyone silently looks at the magazine and does their own thing.

To be honest, the impact of the Timberwolves winning the championship on Durant is huge.

Before that, the name mentioned in the 07 draft was always Durant. And now, Zheng Ke's evaluation is much higher than him. When people talk about Durant, oh. An excellent scorer. When Zheng Ke is mentioned, it is described as an unbelievable player.

Such a change has given Durant a lot of stimulation. This summer, he didn't go anywhere except to hone his skills on the street courts, training non-stop in the gym and training matches.

Success always goes to those who have perseverance.

With such hard work, Durant has grown rapidly since the season. In addition to rising points per game. Others, such as rebounds and assists, have increased slightly.

'He's got better with the ball. After the last game with Durant, Roy said about him.

Zheng Ke has heightened his vigilance for this.

When the bus pulls into the target center. The first thing Harden saw was the championship flag flying over the arena. Not only him, but most of the players on the Thunder team have never won a championship, and when they see the championship banner, they have a feeling in their hearts. When they walked into the arena. It was welcomed by local fans from Minnesota. Quite a few children grimace at them, they are so young, but they are also in a clear position.

Zheng Ke and others have started daily training in the training hall of the target center, although the opponent at night is the Thunder, who are also the Western Youth Guards, but the Timberwolves are the team that has just won the championship, and they will inevitably feel that they are better, and from the perspective of the record, it is the same.

So. Although the bearded man and the others watched from the door, the Timberwolves players treated them as if they didn't exist. I'm still training my way.

"Hi Kevin." Zheng Ke saw Durant and walked over while he was resting.

"Long time no see." Durant grinned and gave Zheng a strong hug. Then, he introduced the bearded man next to him: "This is James." ”

"Hello, bearded." How could Zheng Ke not know Harden, he smiled and warmly hugged this Uncle bin Laden-like figure.

"Hello, ZK." Harden was clearly a little restrained and a little surprised. He didn't expect Zheng Ke to be so enthusiastic, which was a little different from what he imagined Chinese.

"Where's Russell?" Zheng Ke probed his brain and found that Westbrook was not "visiting the class" with these two people.

"They've gone to training." Durant stood up and jokingly said, "We're here to spy on the enemy, and you're just letting us swagger in?" ”

"Haha." Zheng Ke laughed, with indescribable confidence in his expression: "We didn't have tactics against you tonight, and you can't see anything if you come to see it." ”

Zheng Ke suddenly leaned into Durant's ear mysteriously and whispered: "Your newly acquired little brother really looks really individual, I'm afraid it's a little troublesome to clean up this beard, right?" But then again, what the hell are you doing today? Won't you just take your little brother here for a spin? ”

"Ahem." Durant was a little speechless, as if everyone who saw Harden would be interested in his beard, he glanced at Harden's beard, and didn't think there was anything strange? Is it because I've been watching it for a long time?

The two of them were muttering there, Harden pricked up his ears, and he couldn't hear clearly, vaguely hearing the words "James" and "bearded", his eyes were big and small, and his heart was quite proud. "It seems that the MVP of the finals of Xinke is still very concerned about me."

There are no weak teams in the Northwest Division, this is a phrase that has been circulating in the NBA recently.

In addition to the Timberwolves, which are second in the West, there are four strong teams: the Thunder, the Trail Blazers, the Nuggets and the Jazz. In the past, the Young Guards led by the Timberwolves always liked to cause upsets, but now, when the two Young Guards collide together, what kind of sparks will there be? Will the Timberwolves win 10 in a row, or will the Thunder pull off another upset? People are looking forward to this.

Therefore, tonight's target center arena is already full.

Behind the Timberwolves' basketball hoop, there are already reporters with cameras, cameras, guns and guns, some of them from local TV outlets, and more from some big cities. Even when they were "dispatched" to a barren place like Minnesota, the reporters were still happy. Because here, there is last season's championship, because here, there are the top five superstars in the league.

With the introduction of the live DJ, the Timberwolves starters walked out of the tunnel in turn. "Next, let's welcome a small forward from China, who is six feet eight inches tall and weighs 223 pounds, our FMVP, Zheng ~~g~~"

This seemed to be a signal, and in the arena in the target center, wolf howls suddenly sounded one after another. Fans welcomed their wolf king in such a unique way, no, welcomed their wolf god!

Zheng Ke trotted out of the tunnel, stretched out his ape-like arms, high-fived the palms of the fans at the entrance of the tunnel, and ran to the Timberwolves players.

Zheng Ke squatted and slid forward, stretched out his arms, and high-fived his teammates one by one in a movement similar to a mechanical dance.

After that, the starters came on the stage, and Zheng Ke and others took off their training coats and walked onto the field. He clasped his palms together, exhaled into his palms, and ran under the basket shaking his head.

With a slight leap, Zheng Ke's warm palm grasped the cold iron basket.

He bent his arms and lifted his body, did a pull-up-like motion, lifted his head from under the net, passed through the basket, and after doing three, he gently jumped off the basket.

The players of both teams stood near the center circle according to their respective positions on the field.

The Thunder's starting lineup is: Russell Westbrook, Saab Sefrosa, Kevin Durant, Jeff Green, Renard Kirstic.

The Thunder's Krstic is the representative of the technical center, hailing from Serbia. Born in '83, he is now 26 years old, although he is at the peak of a basketball player, but he once torn the cruciate ligament in his left knee and even left the NBA because of it, his athleticism is really average.

Therefore, even if he is 2 centimeters taller than Pekovic, who is 2.11 meters taller, he can win basketball by almost Pekovic, who is a representative of floor flow.

Billups took the basketball in surprise, and then he reacted and secretly gave Pekovic a thumbs up. At the same time, Billups dribbled forward and began to organize the first attack.

After guiding the ball from the outside, Zheng Ke and Billups made a pick-and-roll cooperation, and Westbrook forced Zheng Ke to cover, announcing the failure of the Timberwolves' pick-and-roll.

Billups passed back to Zheng Ke, and the crowd naturally opened up the space.

Zheng Ke stepped on the three-point line at 45 degrees, and Durant's long arm was stretched out and placed ten centimeters in front of Zheng Ke. The noisy voices of the audience were quieted, and everyone looked at the two leading stars on the field who fell into heads-up, and they didn't dare to say, "I'm doing it in this place, will it disappoint the audience?" Zheng Ke asked Durant as if he had sought advice.

Durant didn't dare to answer, three years after entering the league, he was also clear about some of Zheng Ke's habits, including trash talk that disturbed people's hearts from time to time. According to Zheng Ke's words, he generally doesn't talk trash talk, but when he meets an opponent who excites him, he will unconsciously come up with two sentences. "Hmph, it's boring!" Looking at the silent Durant, Zheng Ke felt bored.

Iverson once spoke to Zheng about his breakthrough ability. Overall, Zheng Ke's breakthrough is already at the top level of the NBA, the problem is that Zheng Ke doesn't often break through others, he prefers to use back-to-back singles to solve problems, so after entering the league, Zheng Ke's breakthrough ability has never been very famous.

But in reality, his first steps were very quick.

Like a white lightning bolt, it cut people's sight. To Durant's surprise, Zheng Ke didn't use any feints, even omitted a tentative step, and directly forced a breakthrough on the right side. His reaction was a little slower, and he was scratched by Zheng Ke like a bulldozer, and his ribs were suddenly hit with pain.

Jeff Green is only two meters and six, and his stature does not look like an orthodox power forward, and he is simply unable to move at all after being taken by Lefka. "Bang dang!"

Zheng Ke turns his body into a bow and completes the Super Tomahawk Split!

The audience was as comfortable as drinking a glass of Pepsi; It's like taking a big sip of beer and opening all the pores on your body.

They all stood up and let out the most heart-rending cheers (to be continued......
