After the Thunder locked up the playoffs in advance, how happy the Thunder fans were, how painful the Rockets fans were, although the Rockets, who are currently ranked 9th, have a theoretical possibility of entering the playoffs, but only if the Trail Blazers continue to lose.

On the other side of the ocean, on the morning of March 25, it was a game between the Rockets and the Thunder, and because it was Thursday, many fans had to choose Sina Sports to watch the game.

After Da Yao's season was reimbursed, Maddie was traded to New York after being hidden, and future star Ariza became an iron tie, Rockets fans were already desperate after the All-Star weekend, not to mention that after Sean Battier was also injured, most Rockets fans are now numb...

The first quarter just played for more than 5 minutes, and many Rockets fans broke the defense directly, what kind of hook is this! Fans began to leave messages under the pre-match news posts

"Deal! A must trade! I don't want to see Ariza play again! ”

"This season is almost over, I can see the level of Kevin Martin, except for making fouls, the rest is nothing!"

"Kevin Martin's three-pointer is still good, I don't want to see Aaron Brooks next season, let's start Lowry."

"This gap is too big, it takes one game, this is no longer the Rockets in my impression, Da Yao should go next season."

"This is the normal level, the Rockets are 37-32, ranking ninth, and the Thunder are of course easy to abuse!"

"Adelman should also hurry up and get out of class, Princeton's style of play is not good at all, hurry up around Da Yao to strengthen, and come to a few reliable guards and forwards on the outside, otherwise the Rockets will definitely not be able to enter the playoffs next season."

"Thunder Championship !!"

The host Ke Xiaofan also felt a little bored, the gap between the two sides was too big, after the opening, the Thunder team played a wave of 16:6, and the game after that completely entered the rhythm of the Thunder team.

The Devil's modified 32 joint defense has never allowed the Rockets to find too many opportunities on the outside, needless to say on the inside, Hayes is almost the point where he was released, and after Scola gets the ball, as long as he approaches the paint area, the Thunder's defense will shrink instantly.

Coupled with Li Ze's marking of Kevin Martin, the outside line of the Rockets was directly dumb, and the iron was still beating the iron...

After Scola received the ball in the low post, faced Jeff Green's defense, and was about to squeeze into the paint area by hitting twice, Durant's help defense was already in place, and Scola immediately distributed the ball to Ariza on the outside, who received the ball and made an open three-point jumper.

"Bang...", continue to strike iron.

The long rebound ball was accepted by Li Ze, and immediately pushed the conversion offense, the turtle turtle had already rushed to the front, and directly found the opponent with an overhead pass, Aaron Brooks's interference did not play any role, and the turtle turtle exploded with one arm!

"Bang..."

"It's the Thunder's transition offense again, the Rockets' outside line is too iron, the opportunities are out, and the results are repeatedly missed, allowing the Thunder to easily counterattack, hey, this game is really a one-quarter spent!"

The host Ke Xiaofan is also very depressed, most of the Thunder team games broadcast by Sina Sports are spent at half time, and in a better situation, Li Ze clocked in in the third quarter, and games like today's one quarter have also been broadcast a lot this season.

The Thunder team is simply not martial arts this season, and they will give you a stick after the game starts, and if you can withstand it, you will be given another one in the third quarter, and if you can still withstand it, then the Thunder team will most likely lose this game.

Today's commentator Yang Yi watched it with relish, after Li Ze's game began, the ball on his back after the three important positions was very exciting, completely using his physical advantages, and almost devoured Kevin Martin alive.

"I found a very interesting phenomenon, at the beginning of the season, Li Ze's style of play was biased towards point guard, and Westbrook was more inclined to point guard, but as the Thunder's tactical cooperation became more and more tacit, the two positions switched back."

"The Thunder's back line is actually two pure two-way guards, which is relatively rare for other teams, and we can also look forward to the playoff performance of this young team."

After the host Ke Xiaofan heard Yang Yi's words, he always felt a little awkward, after all, the game had just started, and he started to imagine the playoffs, which was a bit disrespectful to the Rockets...

"Let's start with the Rockets' offensive round, Hayes is on the line, Kevin Martin goes around the cover and goes over to catch the ball, ah! was snatched by Li Ze, this is a bit undeserved! ”

After the host Ke Xiaofan saw Kevin Martin receiving the ball, he wanted to take advantage of the situation to break through, but Li Ze waited for him and snatched the ball directly from Kevin Martin.

After the successful steal, Li Ze accelerated with the ball in his left hand with all his might, noticed that Kevin Martin behind him had given up the defense, just one step past the free throw line, his feet exerted force, quickly took off, and after changing hands under the extremely stretched crotch in the air, he smashed the ball into the basket with his right hand!

"Bang...", the crotch dunk after the steal.

"Hah!!"

The audience at the Ford Center immediately cheered loudly for the wonderful dunk, and the fans in the Russian City also discovered that as long as it was a game of abuse, the Thunder's balls were particularly good-looking!

After landing, Li Ze also pretended to be X at the camera on the sidelines and made a twisting motion to pay tribute to Carter's dunk.

At this time, Ariza looked at the score of 20:6 and had only one thought in his heart:

"Oh my God, let me get back to the Lakers..."

In the following game, the Rocket team was beaten in all directions, and the turtle and turtle were even rushed with passes, and the more they played, the more they played, the more they played, it was rare to encounter a short man like Team Rocket, so they had to brush it up!

At 99:122, the Thunder team, who was fighting at home, attacked again with heavy punches, showing no mercy, beating the Rockets by 33 points, and after the Rockets players shook hands briefly after the game, they immediately turned around and walked back to the players' tunnel, losing too badly...

In this game, the turtle performed the best, completely out of the sewer, and efficiently cut 28 points, 5 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 turnovers, Li Ze and Durant's performance was mediocre, the two scored 22 and 32 points respectively, and the trio scored 82 points again, and the fans of the Russian City were happy.

The advantage of playing at home is that you can fully do physiotherapy after the game, stay as long as you want, and when your teammates leave one after another, only Durant and Li Ze are left in the physiotherapy room.

"Kayce, what do you think of Battier? Do you think he has a chance to join the team next season? ”

Li Ze was slightly stunned when he heard Durant's inquiry, but when he saw the other party's serious expression, he still gave his opinion.

"Battier is a good fit for us, great defense, accurate three-point shooting, and the players have a high opinion of him, so he should get along well."

Durant also nodded slightly after hearing Li Ze's words, and then whispered with a serious expression;

"The Rockets look like they're starting to rebuild, what do you think I should do if I recruit Battier in the offseason? I feel like we need to keep up our attacking space. ”

Li Ze almost didn't turn the corner, good guy, you are going to be Manager Du! But after thinking about it, if Durant can really PY it, it would be a good thing, after all, he is not good to dig the corner of Da Yao himself...

"I think you should let Kleiman come forward in this matter and let the agent communicate the most appropriately, and at the same time, I also want to remind you that the player's will is one thing, the real decisive factor is the contract, and our boss is not a generous person."

Durant was a little upset after hearing Li Ze's truth, but he felt that he should still work this matter, as long as Battier was brought in, his voice in the locker room could also be increased, which was a good thing to kill two birds with one stone!

"Don't worry, I won't be stupid to talk to Presti about this, I believe the boss should still be willing to spend more money, after all, our results are so good, of course we have to strengthen the lineup to impact the championship!"

"Let's hope so, just do your best, I believe that even with the current lineup, we can win the championship."

Although Li Ze was a little suspicious of the Thunder's willingness to spend money, he didn't have much to say, in case there was a butterfly effect, it would be better to wait until the offseason.

......

The Thunder currently have a 55-15 record, just one win behind the Lakers, and their next game will be at home against the Lakers, so to speak, this is a card battle.

If the Lakers win, then they have a good chance of finishing first in the West, and at the same time, they can continue to challenge for the first record in the league, so head coach Phil Jackson decided to go all out in this game.

Bynum has been out of action for a week due to injury, and has just recovered from injury recently, for tonight's card battle, Phil Jackson waved his hand and directly put Bynum in the starting list.

On the evening of March 26, the atmosphere at the Ford Center Arena was particularly hot, and the battle for the first place in the West made this game receive huge attention.

Coach Brooks doesn't have much to think about this game, he just wants to finish the rest of the game safely, and health is the most important thing for the team.

"It's probably going to be a test of our defense, Gasol might have a lot of balls near the free throw line, Green, your defense has to keep up."

"After the opening, we will defend 23 joint defense for a period of time, Russell, when we retreat, we must quickly settle down, and at the same time the defense should not be too reliable, if the opponent's three-point shot is thrown away at the beginning, we will change to 32 joint defense."

"Stay fit, find the problem, and enjoy the game, boys!"

"Yay!"

Coach Phil Jackson didn't put too much emphasis on offensive issues before the game, and joint defense has long been commonplace for the Lakers, and teams with weak interior lines will often adopt such defensive strategies in the face of the Lakers' twin towers.

In this game, Phil Jackson pays more attention to offense, of course he knows that the Thunder's offensive in the first quarter is very fierce, as long as he carries the Thunder's opening onslaught, the Lakers can slowly play an advantage.

Although the score near the basket is more consistent, the outside line should be the first to respond in the opening stages of this game.

"No matter how the opponent defends, we have to move the ball quickly, Ron, pay attention to your offensive position, you have to be ready to receive the ball on the weak side, and if there are no good chances, you have to move and add some open cuts to the baseline."

"It's the same on the defensive end, don't let Kevin Durant receive the ball comfortably, guard his right hand, increase physical confrontation, but also pay attention to the referee's blowing scale, Ron you control this aspect."

Ron Artais nodded, a good defender who naturally knows how to avoid getting into foul trouble, and he also believes he can limit Durant, and although his height is not dominant, he still has the upper hand in strength and confrontation.

"Kobe, for Lee's defense, I'll leave it to you! We have to try to win this game and get home advantage. ”

"Don't worry, I won't let that rookie get points from me easily!"

When Kobe Bryant heard the head coach's words, he immediately said with a serious face, for this game, he will also give his best, as long as he wins the other party, the Lakers will top the league, and the record will surpass the Cavaliers in the East.

In the Celestial Empire on the other side of the ocean, CCTV Sports also broadcast this card battle, and the pre-game host Yu Jia and guest Zhang Weiping naturally chatted about the playoffs.

"Coach Zhang, the regular season is coming to an end, and the playoff spots have been basically determined, which two teams do you think will eventually reach the finals this season?"

This topic is currently very well discussed, and Lakers fans of the Celestial Empire have begun to imagine a second consecutive championship, which is a remarkable achievement, which is also what Komi has been looking forward to, and another triple championship, Kobe's historical status will catch up with Jordan!

Zhang Weiping heard the host Yu Jia's question, smiled slightly, and Weiping-Bryant immediately went online:

"Among the teams in the West, I am still the most optimistic about the Lakers, with a balanced lineup and rich experience, Phil Jackson is also a championship coach, plus Kobe Bryant is in very good shape this year and has a lot of hope of reaching the Finals."

"In the East, the Celtics also have a chance to reach the Finals, don't look at the Cavaliers' good record, but if they really meet the Big Three, the game is definitely not easy to play!"

"After Garnett returned from injury, although his athleticism has declined, as long as the Big Three are healthy, no team dares to say that they can beat them in 7 games, and this year may still be a yellow-green battle!"

The host Yu Jia was a little helpless when he heard Director Zhang's answer, you should also mention the Thunder team, don't patronize the Lakers.

"So do you think the Thunder have a chance to break out of the West? This is different from our previous predictions, the Thunder have a solid 55-win record, and by the end of the regular season, they should be able to play 60 wins, which also shows their quality. ”

The host Yu Jia saw Director Zhang's sudden transformation, so he could only throw out the topic of the Thunder team.

"Of course, the Thunder also have a chance, but to be honest, in the playoffs, the Lakers' defense will be upgraded to a level, the same 32 defense, the Lakers are more effective, except for Fisher, Kobe and Artest are elite defenders on the outside."

"The Thunder rely more on outside projection, which is why I'm not optimistic about them, don't look at them now, they also use joint defense, but it's hard to say whether they can limit the Lakers' twin towers."

Wei Ping-Bryant replied happily.

"If the Thunder want to win, what kind of tactics do you think they should play, or what kind of players should play?"

Host Yu Jia once again brought the topic to the Thunder team.

"If you want to win, Li Ze and Durant have to shoot them all, if Li Ze can play as efficiently as the Spurs, then the Lakers will also have to lose, the Thunder's outside line depends on these two, Westbrook can break through, and the shooting stability is still almost meaningless."

"Thank you for Director Zhang's comments, there is news from the front, Bynum is sure to return for this game, the Lakers should be going all out to win, the twin towers are here, and the starting 5 are: Derrick Fisher, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Pau Gasol, Andrew Bynum."

"The Thunder are still in the regular rotation, Russell Westbrook and Li Ze are partners in the backcourt, Kevin Durant and Jeff Green are on the front line, and center Nenad Kostic, it seems that Durant's ankle injury is really not much of a problem before!"

"Hopefully, both teams will be able to protect their bodies while giving a good game, and when the game is about to start, we switched to Ford Center."

After a crazy shout from the home DJ, Ford Center Arena is boiling at this time, and the top battle in the West! This face to the Russian city fans really haven't seen before,

In the final warm-up stage before the game, Li Ze turned into an equipment expert tonight, and he was heavily armed, replacing his compression pants and tights with black, his arm pads and knee pads were still white, and his hair was specially scratched, and the whole person looked very energetic.

Kobe Bryant saw Li Ze's somewhat flamboyant dress, and immediately frowned, and said in a menacing whisper:

"You should put all your energy into basketball, and you don't want to score easily with me tonight!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Ze's reaction, he immediately turned around and left, Li Ze was a little confused, what is the situation? You're wearing all the bells and whistles yourself, huh? Why can't I do it...

Naturally, the turtle turtle noticed the situation here, and immediately asked curiously:

"What did Bryant tell you? Did he speak harshly again before the game? We won a lot of points last time we met. ”

"It's nothing, Kobe Bryant should be jealous that our home team uniform is too good-looking!"

“......”

The players from both sides came to the center of the field, everyone simply said hello, and the referee also signaled Kostic and Bynum to come and jump the ball.

"At the start of the game, Kostic jumped to the ball for the Thunder, and the atmosphere in the Ford Center Arena was very lively today, and everyone stood up to watch the game!"

“OKC！ OKC！ OKC！！ ”

In the shouts of the audience, the turtle quickly dribbled across the half court and directly played a high block with Kostic, and Bynum's defense also followed.

Seeing this situation, the turtle accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, went around without a good chance, and passed the ball to Durant on the outside.

As soon as Durant received the ball, Artest's defense immediately posted up, in order to prevent Durant from fouling, Artest did not make too many hand movements on the line, but lowered his center of gravity, maintained concentration, and always kept himself in front of Durant.

After the blocking and pick-and-roll with Jeff Green did not get rid of the defense, Durant was not in a hurry to attack, and immediately gave the ball to Li Ze, who was already in the left blocking area of the paint area.

Kobe Bryant didn't expect Li Ze's card position ability to improve so much, unlike the last time they met, at this time, Li Ze was wearing a silver badge bonus, plus a season of training, he was completely out of the rookie stage.

After receiving Durant's pass, feeling the top defense of Kobe Bryant behind him, Li Ze took the ball with his back and sat back, and at the same time quickly released the ball with his right hand, approached the basket by hitting twice, and suddenly pulled his right hand back, pretending to turn around.

Then, with his left foot as the axis, he twisted his body, quickly closed the ball, and threw a backward jumper.

"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.

"Ahh

The audience at Ford Center immediately cheered loudly for Li Ze's goal, which made the audience feel as if they had seen Michael Jordan, and the movements were stretched and beautiful!

"I'm sure I'll get a lot of points from you tonight!"

Taking advantage of the goal, Li Ze also responded to the trash talk before the game, and ran away after turning around, not giving the other party a chance to choke back at all.

Kobe Bryant looked at Li Ze's back and didn't care, he was not a mouth cannon warrior, he was ready to respond to Li Ze's provocation with actions.

In the face of the Lakers' offense, the Thunder defended a 32-in-1 defense on the defensive end, and when Gasol came to the free throw line to respond, Jeff Green's defense immediately followed, with a simple high-low post cooperation, and Bynum received a pass in the low post.

It's just that Durant quickly contracted and went directly to help defend, Bynum didn't let go of the ball, and then transferred the ball to Artest on the outside, who received the ball and made a quick shot outside the three-point line.

"Bang...", he was angry.

Two to grab one, the rebound was easily protected by Durant, and a pass was passed to the speed of the turtle, who received the ball and began to accelerate wildly, Fisher's speed obviously couldn't keep up, and he could only watch the turtle easily make a layup.

"The Thunder's offense and defense are very beautiful, the Lakers completely cracked the Thunder's defense, and now there is an opportunity, but Artest missed the empty basket, and let the Thunder play to switch the offense, and the Lakers have to shoot a few outside, otherwise this defense will be piled inside."

Director Zhang felt sorry for the Lakers, several times the ball was very beautiful, and in the end the empty space did not go in, which really shouldn't be...

The Lakers attacked again, and this time Fisher dribbled past half court and immediately handed the ball into Kobe's hands, and Gasol immediately lifted it up and played the familiar pick-and-roll cooperation.

Kobe Bryant used Gasol's excellent blocking and dismantling to get rid of Li Ze's defense for a short time, but at this time Durant quickly posted up, and Li Ze also quickly squeezed through the blocking and dismantling, chasing the defense on his side, and the two used their height and arm span advantage to pinch Kobe.

The empty Artest is naturally not a stake, he began to cut along the baseline, received Kobe's pass, and hit the basket, but Jeff Green and Kostic had already retracted the basket at this time, and Artest had no choice but to pass the ball to Gasol who was down.

But he still underestimated Li Ze's reaction, the moment he passed, Li Ze had already predicted his passing line, waved his long arm, made an easy steal, and immediately threw the ball to the frontcourt.

"Bang..."

"Roar!"

The excited turtle began to scream again, constantly showing off his biceps, and the audience at Ford Center also yelled along with the Thunder team, and the Thunder team started to play very smoothly.

Coach Phil Jackson shook his head secretly from the sidelines, Artest's offensive options were problematic, and with the opposing defense concentrated on the strong side, he should shoot in the open position instead of rushing in with his head...

Phil Jackson gave Fisher a tactical gesture to signal that the round should be simpler, and after halftime, Gasol was still near the free throw line, and after a few passes from the outside, everyone else cleared one side, and Bryant received the ball at the waist position.

In the face of Li Ze's defense, he quickly released the ball with his right hand, and after dribbling to the line, he quickly turned around to close the ball and threw a backward jumper.

"Whew...", a two-point goal was scored.

Li Ze doesn't care, this is the Thunder's defensive strategy, striving to consume more Kobe Bryant in the first few quarters, and at the same time not giving the interior a chance to score easily.

Li Ze felt that in the face of a player like Kobe, his only advantage should be physical fitness, and with the bonus of the silver badge [Copper Wall], he believed that Kobe's physical decline was definitely much faster than under normal circumstances.

What's more, every time he asks for the ball in the low post, Kobe Bryant has to face Li Ze's constant entanglement, which is a physically exhausting action, as long as the Lakers' outside line is not open, they don't want to win this game easily.

For the rest of the first quarter, the offensive tempo of both sides was slow, and although Artest did not feel good on the offensive end, he did perform very well when defending Durant.

Whether it is chasing defense or top defense, Durant has never been able to get rid of Artest's entanglement, and several pull-up jump shots have all hit the iron, but the turtle's play makes up for Durant's firepower.

Fisher is still the same old problem, although the defensive posture is good, the shorts are also very chic, and the resolute eyes also show his defensive determination, but unfortunately the legs and feet really can't keep up...

The Turtle can easily get past Fisher's defense without the help of pick-and-roll, relying on his speed and forward change of direction to easily get past Fisher's defense, and after throwing two mid-range shots in a row, Coach Phil Jackson began to hesitate, and it was too early to replace Fisher...

Especially after seeing Fisher hit another three-pointer outside the three-point line, Coach Phil Jackson completely endured it, and the outside firepower is more important, keep playing!

Compared with the previous encounters, the offensive tactics of the Thunder team have begun to become simple and crude, on the one hand, the coaching team has confidence in Li Ze's offense, and on the other hand, the two teams have played each other many times, and many tactics have not had their initial effect.

The Thunder team attacked, Li Ze and Kobe Bryant were entangled in the low post, and successfully received the pass from the turtle in the waist position.

After receiving the ball, Li Ze suddenly turned around, quickly released the ball with his left hand, and broke through along the bottom line, Kobe's defensive footsteps were also very fast, directly blocking Li Ze's breakthrough route.

Li Ze, who was moving, suddenly changed direction under his crotch, and after dribbling with the ball in his right hand, he shook the ball with a false snap, and after the realistic feint point flew Kobe, he quickly turned around with his left foot as the axis, and made a mid-distance jumper.

The two-pointer hit the ball steadily.

"Yo he! Li Ze's footsteps are amazing! From receiving the ball to shooting, the continuous feints finally deceived Kobe's defense, this technical action is really good! ”

Coach Zhang began to praise Li Ze again, such a goal is indeed pleasing to the eye.

Kobe Bryant saw Li Ze retreating with a smile, and suddenly his heart was angry, an arrogant rookie!

In the next few minutes, the hit rate of the two sides began to decline, and the frequent physical contact also made the referee's whistle gradually denser, and Li Ze was secretly happy in his heart:

"Come on! On the left half of the pitch, I could spend the whole day with you! ”

Kobe Bryant was also depressed to find that Li Ze almost spared no physical strength, always chasing and defending him, and the offensive end also began to consume him, and the offensive and defensive ends were completely exerted.

By the end of the first quarter, at 25:32, the Thunder temporarily led by 7 points, and Li Ze made 3 of 5 in the first quarter, all of which were mid-range jumpers, which also greatly weakened the Lakers' role in the twin towers.

The best player in the Thunder team was the turtle, shooting 6 of 8, 2 of 2 free throws, and scoring 14 points in a single quarter, Durant was the most depressed, he only scored 4 points under the entanglement of Artest...

In the second quarter of the rotation, after the Thunder replaced Ibaka, the effect on the defensive end was much better, and the Lakers were never able to respond from the outside, which made the Thunder's defense smaller and smaller, and it became extremely difficult to score every time.

This kind of game is not good, but the audience at the Ford Center Arena is screaming excitedly, and under the mobilization of the live DJ, they are constantly cheering for the home team, and the card position battle, as long as they can win!

By the end of the half, 50:57, the Thunder had a seven-point lead.

At halftime, in the locker room of the Thunder team, Li Ze hurriedly ate two bananas to supplement the consumption of physical energy, Kobe Bryant deserves to be a physical monster, Li Ze felt that the opponent's physical fitness did not show signs of declining...

"Good, boys, keep up with our defense and keep protecting our rebounds!"

Coach Brooks was very satisfied with the team's performance, and the Lakers had a lot of opportunities from the outside, but the 2-of-9 three-pointers couldn't shake the Thunder's defensive strategy at all.

The second half of the game was almost a replica of the first half, with the Lakers attempting several outside three-point shots, all of which turned out to be iron, and Jeff Green on the Thunder's side suddenly rose to prominence in the third quarter, making 3 of 3 in the first quarter, allowing the Thunder to continue to extend their lead.

Coach Phil Jackson was depressed when he saw the team's offensive performance, and after playing more than 4 minutes in the fourth quarter, the difference still did not narrow, and Kobe's physical fitness gradually became problematic, and the shooting percentage began to decline.

Li Ze naturally had to punch hard at this time, and after two consecutive covers from Jeff Green and Kostic on the line, Li Ze successfully received the ball 45 degrees outside the left three-point line.

The left-handed cross-step dribble pulled back, changed Kobe's defensive support foot, quickly changed direction under the crotch, pretended to break through with the ball in his left hand, noticed that Kobe's center of gravity moved back, Li Ze exerted force at his feet, and shot a jumper outside the three-point line.

"Smack..."

"Squeak..."

The referee's whistle blows, the three-point shot is valid, and one more free throw is required.

"Ahh

The crowd at Ford Center began to shout wildly, venting their excitement, and the goal was scored, almost killing the game, and the Thunder had a 14-point lead!

"Well done, Bro!" "I knew you could shoot a three-pointer like that!"

Durant and Turtle immediately stepped forward to pull up the plum that fell to the ground, and the two were also very excited, winning this game, they will tie the Lakers' record.

Li Ze saw Kobe Bryant with a depressed face, and smiled in his heart:

"It's almost impossible to win this race with two points in the middle distance!"

Li Ze stood at the free throw line, adjusted his breathing, and just turned the ball twice in his hand, when he heard a coral tsunami-like sound from the scene:

“MVP！ MVP！ MVP！！ ”

Durant heard the sound of the scene, his expression froze, this is the second time, why hasn't he received such cheers...

Li Ze heard the shouts of MVP, smiled slightly, and scored the ball steadily, at present, he has 25 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 turnover, compared to the defense of Kobe Bryant at the beginning of the season, he can clearly feel his improvement.

Well... Although most of the scoring was concentrated in the left half, this ratio is not important, the important thing is that under his defense, Kobe Bryant only scored 22 points!

With more than 5 minutes left in the game, Coach Phil Jackson asked for a timeout, and the Lakers closed the game, this outside line is too iron, there is no three-point shot, it is difficult to recover 15 points, plus Bynum has just returned from injury, Kobe Bryant's consumption is not small, and health is the most important...

In the end, 91-101, the Thunder defeated the Lakers at home, tied the win gap, and regained the first place in the West again.

But what makes people laugh and cry is that a day later, the Thunder team faced the Trail Blazers at home, but they simply lost to the other side, 110:96, the rampaging Huang Mamba Brandon Roy even exploded 36 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.

In the locker room of the thunder after the game, Li Ze looked at the turtle with a guilty expression, and comforted with a smile:

"It's okay, Russell, it's not your responsibility to lose, besides, we still have a chance, as long as we tie the Lakers, we can get back the first place in the West!"

In the game with the Lakers, the turtle efficiently bargained for 30 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 turnovers, but this game directly overtook the ghost... He finished with just 12 points, five rebounds, five assists, and four turnovers.

"It's my problem, sorry guys, I shouldn't have eaten so much chocolate cake last night!"

“......”

Li Ze scratched his head helplessly, and thought depressedly in his heart:

"It looks like the Spurs are going to be played in the first round, and I really don't want to run into that bad old man from Popovich..."
