Chapter 172: Mentality Explodes Durant

O'Neill and Barkley chatted during the live broadcast, and the audience listened with great interest.

Whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, gossip and watching the excitement are common problems of people.

In addition, O'Neal and Barkley are still a bit of a big bet this time, if they win both games, the losing side will have to strip naked to only their underwear, and run around TNT's TV building with a sign congratulating the opposing team on the victory.

This is really a big enough bet, no matter who loses, I am afraid that I will not be able to raise my head for a long time in the future, and it will be a complete social death!

The commentators of the CCTV sports channel were speechless.

These old American commentators are really good at playing, this is also in the country where entertainment is paramount, in China, once such a shameful incident as running naked comes out, it is likely to lose their jobs directly.

"O'Neal and Barkley are worthy of being famous in the NBA, and they really know how to play, but as a Chinese, from my standpoint, I am more inclined to let O'Neal win the game."

"Alright, let's get down to business, the players from both sides are all on the field, let's take a look at the starters of both teams."

"On the Cavaliers' side, they have always used the main starting lineup, point guard Irving, point guard JR. Smith, small forward Wang Feng, big forward James, and center Love."

"The Warriors are also the main lineup, point guard Curry, point guard Thompson, small forward Durant, big forward Green, center Pachulia, it seems that neither side is willing to give up the victory of this game."

……

Off the field, the game is about to begin.

Wang Feng greeted Curry, Thompson and other old teammates in a friendly manner, and directly ignored Green, a birdman.

Except for Wang Feng, the other players of the Cavaliers and the Warriors are mortal enemies, after all, they lost to each other in the Finals in the first two seasons, and they all have some grudges.

Love and Pachulia jumped the ball in the middle circle, and Pachulia won the ball and put the basketball on the side of the Warriors.

Curry, who got the basketball, dribbled past half court, and the game officially began!

……

"It seems that Durant really wants to prove that he is better than James."

As soon as Curry dribbled past half court, Durant couldn't wait for the ball.

Seeing this scene, Wang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

No...... Wrong.

Durant, who appeared in the small forward position, was not directly opposite James, but Wang Feng.

Even if Durant wants to get the ball, the opponent will be him, not James.

"Could it be that he wants to up to prove something?"

Wang Feng suddenly thought of the possible real reason, and at the same time couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

As we all know, Durant is a top player with a very small heart, and on the Internet, it is normal for players to be sprayed, even if they are as strong as James, they are also controversial and questioned, especially from the Heat to the Cavaliers, three consecutive years of Finals failures, so that his reputation is already on the cusp.

Even Jordan Joe, the recognized god of basketball, can't escape.

As the saying goes, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight, and the higher your popularity and popularity, the more this kind of thing will be.

But Durant doesn't.

I don't accept any doubts about me, you can do it, don't force it.

The most degraded thing that the cautious Durant did was to open a trumpet and spray black powder and then be caught.

Wang Feng probably knows why Durant focuses on himself.

Alignment at the finals at the Olympics is a very important reason.

In that game, Wang Feng scored 39 points and fought until the last minute until he was sent off with 5 fouls.

Under the tactical requirements of the team, Durant tried to avoid the game and handed over the ball to other players, and the United States team finally won and successfully won the gold medal, but Durant only scored a dozen points in the whole game, and it looked like he was completely blown up by Wang Feng.

After that game, people from all walks of life in the media of the United States often talked about this matter, sarcastically saying that Durant was not as good as Wang Feng.

And this situation became more and more intense as the regular season began and Durant wore the Warriors jersey.

Last season's Warriors performed so perfectly, winning 35 consecutive games at the start of the regular season, breaking the league record while soaring all the way to a 74-8 record in the regular season, leading the league.

After a season, Wang Feng left the team, Durant joined, and the Warriors, which should have been on a higher level, why did they lose more games than last season?

As of the Christmas game, the Warriors maintained an 83.8% win rate, winning a total of 26 games in 31 games, which is actually quite good, and they are currently the only team in the league with a win percentage above 80.

But for the Warriors, who won 74 last season, it was a step backwards.

Fans don't think about the change of style of play and the run-in of new players, nor do they think about other factors such as luck in the game, in their opinion, the team's poor record must be the player's fault.

So who should pull the Warriors out and take the blame?

Curry's performance this season is significantly worse than last season, with his points per game averaging plummeting from 30+ to 25, and his shooting percentage has also declined.

can be the absolute soul of the Warriors and a two-time double MVP, how can Warriors fans complain about Curry?

Thompson and Green are just as impossible, the two themselves are positioned as auxiliary work in the team, and their personal data has not declined significantly compared to last season, and they have fully done their job.

In this way, the pot was naturally carried by Durant, an outsider.

"It's all because of Durant, he takes up too much of the ball, but it makes Curry also tied up and can't play like last season!"

"Durant's outside defense is much worse than Wang Feng's, the lateral speed is so slow, there is no way to help the outside defense, and the three-point shot is not as accurate as Wang Feng, and he always makes a large number of mid- and long-range shots in one-on-one situations, which is not only inefficient but also seriously affects the team's offensive rhythm."

"Therefore, a strong team is not as simple as 1+1=2, and a large number of stars are not the key to winning, but a reasonable lineup matching! Warriors management shouldn't have given up on Wang Feng in the summer and pursued Durant instead. ”

Durant's mentality collapsed.

TM, you weren't like that when I came!

In fact, Durant should understand a truth, the best is always the one you can't get.

Being constantly compared with Wang Feng, and then being criticized for being useless, made Durant's mentality explode, and naturally resented Wang Feng, an opponent who had not paid attention to it at all.

"Everyone says you're better than me? Better suited to the Warriors' system than me? All right! Let them take a good look at who is the stronger one! ”
