On November 21, after the end of the back-to-back trip away, the Thunder team returned to the Russian City, back-to-back games played well, and as Thanksgiving Day approached, the coaching staff gave the players a day off again.

When I woke up again, I saw Anne blinking her eyes and looking at him with a smile on her face, as if to say that my dear is tired... Li Ze hugged the black-haired royal sister in his arms, causing the other party to exclaim, and then said in a muffled voice:

"I'm hungry, Annie! What to eat for breakfast? ”

Anne pushed Li Ze, who was buried in her chest, and said helplessly:

"Your house in Ojo is like an apartment hotel, I didn't have time to check what you had in your fridge last night, do you remember promising me to go with me to the premiere of my friend's movie? It's the day before Thanksgiving, and I'm going to have to clean up for you these days! ”

"Thanksgiving? The producer is very confident in the quality of the movie, you seem to have lost a little weight again, eat a little more with me these days. ”

Li Ze hugged the black-haired royal sister in his arms tightly, and said in the other party's ear with concern.

"It's not that I'm confident in the quality of the movie, but there was a little accident during the filming and I was forced to postpone, anyway, it's just an ordinary popcorn movie, don't expect too much."

Anne slapped the big hand on her waist, glanced at Li Ze charmingly, left the big bed, moved her body, and introduced the name of the movie to Li Ze by the way.

"Percy Jackson and the Thief of Fire? Fantasy movies? When I hear the name, I feel like the box office is average, your friend is the heroine in the play? ”

There are too many bad movies about Amika, Li Ze has no impression of this movie at all, and when he heard Annie's introduction, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Yes, the vase heroine in a Hollywood movie, with big breasts and no brains, and an absolute true character! Pretty boy, do you want to take a shower together? ”

As soon as Li Ze heard this title, and saw Annie's teasing expression again, the corners of his mouth twitched, the blonde sister was really broken, and there were a lot of funny photos with him posted on INS.

Fortunately, during this time, Shakira was busy promoting the album and doing a world tour, and Britney Spears has been preaching everywhere with the campaign office set up by her father, otherwise the video call of these people alone would keep Li Ze busy...

Seeing Anne hooking his hand provocatively, Li Ze immediately got up, carried the other party on his shoulder, provoked the other party to exclaim, and walked directly to the bathroom, he had to increase some confrontation, so that the black-haired royal sister knew the consequences of provoking him.

"Oh! Haha, pretty boy! ”

On Nov. 22, the Thunder will host the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight, and the Timberwolves sent away Al Jefferson this offseason, selected Wesley Johnson with the fourth pick in the draft, and by the way also traded Michael Beasley from the Heat.

If you just look at the draft picks of the Timberwolves' starting lineup, it is absolutely gorgeous, all four are lottery picks, Darko Milicic and Michael Beasley are all top picks, Wesley Johnson and Love are the 4th and 5th picks respectively, and several talents are off the charts!

But it's a pity that this lineup is useless, the offense is okay, the defense is send, so far, only 3 wins and 11 losses, and most importantly, the ball is a little bit insufficient...

At noon, Li Ze and Turtle Turtle entertained their good brother Lefu at a steakhouse in Russia, and seeing that the other party was still chubby, Li Ze laughed and teased:

"Participating in the World Championships in Turkey in the off-season failed to make you lose weight, and it seems that the confrontation in the World Championships is still not enough!"

"It's all because of the old Coach K, who made me sit on the bench frequently and throw towels too little! Congratulations, Kayce, I love the song "Radioactive", it's so much more exciting than your previous songs! ”

Lefu first teased himself, and then congratulated Li Ze on the performance of his latest single, this "Radioactive" was released in a low-key manner on November 15, and in less than a week, it once again entered the top 10 on the Billboard.

"Love, did you reach an early contract extension agreement with the Timberwolves? Ted told me that there might be some add-ons and that you better not sign the contract right away. ”

The turtle and turtle quickly got to the point, the main purpose of today's entertainment is about the contract, everyone should talk in advance and share the information they have.

"Of course I won't sign the contract at this time, and if there is a major change in the collective bargaining agreement, it will be a big loss! But I don't think the league will be shut down for too long, everyone has to make money, and there are fewer games, so it's definitely a lose-lose decision. ”

Lefu is planning to take the route of being afraid of the money, and his agent also gave advice that in order to make more money, he can't be in a hurry to renew the contract in advance.

"It's right to wait, if the agreement changes at that time, the early renewal time will also be postponed, what we have to do is to play a good game and get beautiful data while winning!"

Li Ze is also not sure whether some additional clauses will appear as expected in his future memory, but if he wants to get a big contract, the data must be passable.

"It's still Kayce's luck, and if you think about the contract next season, you won't have so much trouble, hey! If only the three of us were on a team, then I wouldn't have to worry about the data. ”

When Li Ze heard Lefou's words, and then thought of Beasley's performance in the Timberwolves, he could only sigh secretly in his heart:

"Brushing data is also a technical job, it seems that Beasley is here, Lefou's ball possession has been affected a little, and the two pairs of machines are not easy to do..."

.....

Thanksgiving Day is approaching, and the Thunder have recently held a lot of activities to give back to fans, and tonight's game, halftime activities have also changed to the theme of Thanksgiving, and Ford Center Arena is also full of spectators early.

This game was only broadcast locally in Russia, so Anne, who has been low-key, also came to the stadium tonight to cheer for Li Ze on the spot, canvas shoes, jeans, light blue shirt, black casual blazer, Anne and Li Ze directly wore a set of couple clothes.

The on-site director also frequently aimed the camera at the black-haired royal sister, and Amerika also looked at her face! And Anne also looked down and generous in front of the camera, not only took the initiative to hug Li Ze before the game, but also greeted the turtle and Lefu.

Seeing this situation, Twin, the commentator at home, took the opportunity to laugh and ridicule Li Ze:

"Kayce should be thankful for the NBA's arrangement, and he's glad that tonight wasn't a game broadcast live across the United States!"

Before the game, in the Thunder locker room, Coach Brooks was telling his players that due to Durant's injury, Li Ze will play the No. 3 position tonight, and Sovlosa will be promoted to the starting line-up to play the No. 2 position.

"Kevin is out for at least a week with an injury, and during that time, we have to cheer up, and this season our goal is to finish first in the West and establish our home-court advantage in the playoffs, so we have to focus on every game."

"Just like in training, Kayce plays the number three position, our offensive tactics remain the same, but on the defensive end, we have to pay attention to the retraction, after all, our height has dropped, and at the same time, we have to pay attention to the protection of the backcourt rebounding, the Timberwolves have excellent rebounding."

"I hope you can get two wins before Thanksgiving, and this is probably the best gift for the fans of Acheng!"

"Whew! 10,000, spitting, crushing, and logging tired! ”

When the hot entrance ceremony ended, the NBA league also awarded Li Ze the Player of the Week award from November 14th to 20th, although the simple crystal trophy in his hand once again aroused his desire to complain, but on the surface Li Ze was smiling, and then he held the trophy high and continued to greet the fans on the spot.

"Thank you all for your support! This award belongs to all of us! I will continue to work hard and help the team win! ”

Hearing Li Ze's words, the fans of the Russian city at the scene were also very powerful, and directly sent huge cheers to Li Ze:

“MVP！ MVP！ MVP！ ”

When the two teams had the final warm-up before the game, Li Ze smiled in his heart while moving his body;

"Durant is injured, the team has become a duo, these games have to strive to impress everyone, the MVP selection is voted by reporters, and the impression score is very important!"

However, the first quarter of the game played more than 6 minutes, but the Thunder were in trouble, there were still problems on the offensive end, Sovlosa's defense was very good, but this can be regarded as a refusal to shoot, played half a quarter of the game, and the offensive space on the court was never opened.

Fortunately, the Timberwolves' defense is not very good, and Beasley, the surface brother who is opposite Li Ze, disappeared after a few covers, so the current score is 18:14, the Thunder are 4 points behind, and the Timberwolves' twin towers once again showed their dominance on the inside.

Jeff Green hates playing against fat players, but Love likes Jeff Green's defense very much, and after the opening, he attacks in the low post and hits all threes from the outside.

As soon as Li Ze saw that his teammates' outside firepower was not good, he immediately made a tactical gesture to Turtle Turtle, signaling that he would change gears and dismantle tactics in the next few minutes.

Notice the small guard Sebastian Telfil behind him, the turtle turtle does not attack blindly, after all, Lefu is shrinking inside and waiting for him, directly to Kostic on the three-point line, and at the same time running to the bottom left corner to take away the defensive Sebastian Telfair.

Li Ze quickly moved from the left wing outside the three-point line to the top of the arc, and after receiving Kostic's hand-handed pass, he accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, Wesley Johnson saw Beasley's defense a beat slower, and just wanted to move over to help defend, he saw Li Ze make a stop-and-go jump shot at the free throw line...

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

"Ahh

The Russian City fans at the scene began to cheer for Li Ze's goal, which is the attack they want to see, and the battle is resolved in 14 seconds.

After playing the small half quarter, Li Ze also thoroughly figured out the Timberwolves' defensive strategy, and the opponent basically gave up the outside defense of Jeff Green, and always let a big man stay near the paint area to prevent the turtle from breaking through.

At the same time, Beasley and Wesley Johnson appropriately wrapped up Li Ze and disrupted the offensive rhythm of the Thunder, this tactic is an improved version of what the Celtics used, and Coach Kurt Rambis still has a lot of ideas.

The Timberwolves, who were on the downwind ball, were all brave on the offensive end, and Luke Ridno and Corey Brewer, who came off the bench, also performed exceptionally well, hitting consecutive shots, and at halftime, 64:58, the Timberwolves led by six points.

At halftime, in the Thunder locker room, Coach Brooks was very calm, just reminding his players:

"Guys, the third quarter was very crucial, maybe we had a little bit of a problem with our offense, but we can solve it with defense, press them, show our mobility, and use our defense to contain the opposition's offense."

"Ibaka, you go on the court in the second half, do a good job of defending inside, we have to get the score back in the third quarter!"

In the third quarter of the game, the Thunder took the lead in attacking, and Li Ze in the three-second zone quickly bounced out through the off-ball cover of Jeff Green and Kostic, and after receiving the pass from the turtle, he noticed that Beasley's defense had just rotated into place, and he directly broke through with the ball in his left hand.

Beasley had just slid backwards when he found that Li Ze suddenly dribbled back, and then came with a double step back and made a jumper from beyond the three-point line.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

"Sir! Didn't the ball go? He took two steps back in an instant! ”

However, the linesman ignored Beasley's complaints, and the game continued, the Timberwolves' offense, after Beasley received the pass, seemed to want to play a response ball, and noticed that Li Ze's defensive position put his left hand, and Beasley immediately accelerated with the ball in his left hand.

But Li Ze on the defensive end was prepared, as soon as the opponent broke through, he first followed the defense on his side, and after dribbling across the free throw line, he instantly enhanced the defensive aggressiveness, and while giving the body confrontation, he saw the timing and quickly cut the ball with his right hand.

"Smack!"

After poking the ball in Beasley's hand, Li Ze didn't stick to the ball, aiming at the turtle turtle was already about to fall, he quickly threw the ball with his right hand, and threw the ball directly to the front court, the turtle turtle quickly arrived, and after receiving the ball, the signature tomahawk buckled!

"Ahh

The counter-attack after the steal ignited the atmosphere at home, and the Timberwolves quickly sent out the baseline ball, first passing it on the outside several times, and then giving the ball to Love on the free throw line, and after the high and low post cooperated, quickly gave the ball to Dako Milicic in the paint area.

The latter received the ball and faced Kostic's defense, leaned on the ball with his right hand, quickly turned around and closed the ball, carried Kostic away with his body, and threw it under the basket with his left hand, but as soon as the ball was shot, he found that a big hand appeared above.

"Smack!"

Li Ze, who contracted the defense, directly sent out the pegboard hat, Ibaka controlled the ball, and as soon as he passed to the turtle, the Thunder team quickly launched a conversion attack, and the turtle with the ball rushed very fast, accelerating in a straight line with all his strength, which made Wesley Johnson, who was chasing him, have no time to watch the situation behind him.

Seeing the turtle jump up to the basket, Wesley Johnson immediately jumped up, only to find that the ball was flying to the right back, and after he just landed, he turned his head and saw Li Ze scooping the ball with one hand in the air, pulling his arm back, and then a powerful one-arm dunk!

"Bang...", the empty catch was slammed.

"Ahh

After landing, Li Ze first collided with the turtle turtle to celebrate, and then applauded passionately and loudly signaled his teammates to continue to defend.

“Good job！ Keep on the defensive! ”

The Thunder, who then overtook the score, instantly gained momentum, showing the defensive intensity of a playoff team, and the Timberwolves did not score a point in three minutes of defense, and also established an eight-point lead.

The Timberwolves, who were headwind, failed to respond at this time, and the defense suddenly lost power, and the game was directly gone...

At 106:117, the Thunder relied on the high-intensity defense in the second half to regain a hearty offense and successfully defend the home court.

Li Ze scored 28 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block again in this game, and the turtle also scored 24 points, and other teammates also woke up in the second half.

"I thought I could beat you tonight! Your guy has become so good on the defensive end, remember to be merciful next time, don't help me defend again! ”

Lefu hugged Li Ze with a smile, and laughed at himself again for losing.

"You can blow up our interior tonight, 24 points, 17 rebounds, and a double-double! Come on, Bro! Aiming for the playoffs this season. ”

......

On November 23, after the afternoon training session, Li Ze just returned home, and saw the usually calm Anne trying on clothes one by one, which made Li Ze feel very interesting:

"We don't need to walk the red carpet, we don't have to dress up deliberately, you are beautiful enough Annie, don't steal the limelight from your friends!"

"This is the friendship between women, we have been competing since we were children, not to mention this, come and help me!"

Anne, who was wearing a black bandeau dress, was showing amazing charm, her fair skin and flaming red lips made people unable to take their eyes off, Li Ze hugged the black royal sister tightly from behind, and whispered in her ear:

"We still have a lot of time, don't forget that we can fly there directly tonight, it will be there in more than 2 hours!"

Anne immediately sent a fragrant kiss, then threw herself into Li Ze's arms, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your private jet, but we'll have to keep changing, Kayce, I don't want to be compared to her, how about this black dress?"

"Beautiful! Let me take a closer look..."

The premiere of "Percy Jackson and the Thief of Fire" was held at Lincoln Center in New York City, and Li Ze also wore a dark blue suit, and when he and Anne appeared on the scene, the movie at 0 o'clock was about to start.

While pinching Li Ze, Anne greeted her friend with a smile on her face:

"Alex, you're so beautiful tonight, and I'm especially looking forward to seeing how you perform in the movie, where you fulfill our childhood dreams."

Li Ze saw the two hugging each other, chattering endlessly, and just when he was bored, the tall black-haired girl in front of him, wearing a black and white patterned bandeau dress, suddenly said:

"Kayce, Anne has mentioned you to me for a long time, I have wanted to know you for a long time, you look much more handsome than in the photos, no wonder Anne is so fascinated!"

When Li Ze and the turbulent black-haired girl in front of him looked at each other, they found that the other party actually had these blue eyes, and after looking at each other, it was definitely impressive.

"It's a pleasure to be here for your premiere and hopefully it's a big hit at the box office!"

"Alexandra D'Addario, the name is a bit long, just call me Alex like Anne, thank you for being here tonight."

Li Ze and the other party politely hugged and greeted, seeing Anne on the side showing a look of paying attention to the distance, Li Ze chuckled, and after the three chatted freely, Anne took Li Ze into the screening room.

"Percy Jackson and the Thief of Fire" is a typical popcorn movie, if Li Ze is given a choice, he will never watch such a boring movie, the logic of the whole movie makes people a little powerless to complain, Anne saw that Li Ze was not interested, and immediately whispered in his ear:

"After the screening, I'll show you Alex's family, be more sedate, and trust me, in New York or Los Angeles, Uncle Richard can sometimes be a great help."

"Don't worry! I know how to measure and I'll do well! ”

When Anne heard Li Ze's words, she pinched Li Ze's soft underbelly with her small hand, and then said in a low voice:

"Keep your distance from Alex, their family is a lawyer, don't be deceived by her appearance, she has big breasts, but she is not brainless!"

“......”

On November 24, the NBA league's Thanksgiving Day game was also held as scheduled, and as the highlight of Thanksgiving, ESPN will broadcast the Thunder's game against the Dallas Mavericks at home.

Thanksgiving's choice of such a schedule for a national live broadcast is naturally because in the playoffs last season, the Thunder swept the Mavericks, and such a game must have some gunpowder flavor, and Amelica fans are good at it.

Compared to last season, the Mavericks successfully strengthened the interior in the offseason, sending away Dampier and welcoming the interior defensive gate Tyson Chandler, although the current lineup is still running-in, but the Mavericks also achieved a 9-4 record after the start of the season.

Coach Carlisle may have been influenced by the butterfly of Li Ze, and since last season, he has changed many Mavericks' tactical play, making the whole team rely more on three-point shooting.

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, tonight's Ford Center Arena is particularly hot, but unfortunately the stadium has limited seats, and although many seats are added, it still can't satisfy all the fans in the city.

The game is about to start, and the scene is already noisy, with DJ music, awkward dancing fans, and even a lot of directly cheering audience members are screaming, such a scene is also a bit silly to see the three people in the ESPN broadcast seat.

Commentator Mike Brin said to the two guests next to him after a few wows:

"The Mavericks have been getting better in recent games, and Tyson Chandler seems to be getting used to the team's system, what do you two think of tonight's game?"

"I think Kevin's absence will cause some trouble for the Thunder, I reviewed the last game between the Thunder and the Timberwolves, if the Thunder didn't start the game well, then the Mavericks could even directly defend a 23-team, they only need to focus on defending Lee alone."

Mark Jackson nodded in agreement when he heard Jeff Van Gundy's words, and then added:

"I give the Mavericks 8 points for their operation in the offseason, the arrival of Tyson Chandler, can completely liberate Nowitzki on the defensive end, and the Mavericks' rebounding is also strongly guaranteed, we all know that protecting the backcourt rebounding can get a chance to convert."

"So everyone is optimistic about the Mavericks? I think the Thunder have a good chance, Sofrosa is a very good perimeter defender, and just like in the last game, the Thunder may be able to continue to try high-pressure defense on the perimeter. ”

Mike Bryn's words were just halfway through when Jeff Van Gundy immediately spoke up:

"I completely agree with you, so this is a close game, and tonight's victory and defeat can only depend on the performance of the players on both sides!"

Commentator Mike Brin was directly speechless, blocked at both ends!

“......”

The Mavericks naturally had no grievances with the Thunder before, after all, one belongs to the Southwest Division and the other belongs to the Northwest Division, and the two teams will not play each other frequently in a season, but last season's playoffs completely changed the situation of the two teams.

The Western Conference semifinals were swept, and naturally this result naturally made the Mavericks angry enough, plus the two teams did not make large-scale roster changes in the offseason, and tonight's game was a bit of a spark after the start.

In the first quarter of the game, which had just been played for more than two minutes, Li Ze received the ball with his back in the waist position, faced Marion's defense, quickly released the ball with his right hand, and after hitting twice, he quickly turned around and closed the ball, pretending to shoot, and the realistic feints directly shook Marion.

Marion realized that he had been shaken away, and as he fell from the air, he hit Li Ze's arm directly.

"Smack!" I played with the ball...

And after Li Ze was knocked off by the opponent, he immediately stepped forward and pushed Marion hard, almost pushing the opponent directly.

"Hey! Brat! I'm just a normal foul! You need to be respectful of the veterans! ”

"Come on, man! You just feel ashamed to be shaken away, trust me, you'll still be shaken later! ”

The referee acted quickly and directly pulled away from the two, and the players on both sides were able to talk for a while, and the fans of the Russian city also screamed, and the scene instantly became full of gunpowder.

Li Ze stood at the free throw line, took a deep breath, hit two free throws steadily, and after the opening, the Mavericks used 23 joint defense, such a defensive strategy was obviously prepared for Li Ze.

Jason Kidd on the line, Sean Marion on the opposite side, and Tyson Chandler near the paint area, the three of them always kept a close eye on Li Ze, which also made Li Ze play extremely depressed after the opening, and it was very difficult to catch the ball in the waist position every time.

When the first quarter was halfway through, the Mavericks led by 4 points at 16:12, and when the official timeout came back, the Thunder directly took Ibaka, improving the quality of the cover and strengthening the protection of the backcourt rebound.

Nowitzki, who was in this game, also worked hard, paused and came back to the Mavericks offense, and after seeing Ibaka on the court, because of the time, he asked for the ball directly in the low post, received Kidd's hanging pass, and after a simple triple threat, he pulled back and threw a jumper.

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

"Shhhhh

The crowd at Ford Center naturally noticed Nowitzki's hot form in the first quarter, and the opponent is currently shooting all 4 shots, which also caused the fans in the stadium to immediately erupt in huge boos in an attempt to put pressure on the Mavericks players.

The Thunder team attacked, the turtle turtle opened and failed to break through the inside line a few times, the team fell behind, this time after half time directly to Li Ze's hands, noticing that Marion in front of him lowered the defensive center of gravity very low, Li Ze immediately signaled Ibaka to block and dismantle.

Seeing Marion's attention diverted, his body shook to the left, a quick probing step, and then he exerted force with his feet, and crossed steps with the ball in his right hand to break through, Li Ze's first step was fast and fierce, and Marion's defense subconsciously slid backwards.

Li Ze, who dribbled a step, noticed that Tyson Chandler's help defense was already in place, and the right hand quickly dribbled behind his back, instantly changing the rhythm of the attack, and Marion's defensive center moved forward in an instant, directly pounced.

Li Ze quickly changed direction under his crotch with his left hand, and then exerted force with his feet, ignoring Marion's jumping block, still steadily completing his retreat action, and quickly shot outside the three-point line.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

"Brilliant goal! Lee successfully read the Mavericks' defense, and used the step-back shot to easily create shooting space, perfect offense! ”

Jeff Van Gundy suddenly sped up his speech and sent words of praise to Li Ze, which also made Mike Brin next to him a little depressed, and he didn't shout "Bang" to his mouth...

"Roar!"

The Russian fans at the scene saw that Li Ze finally hit a three-point shot, and they all shouted excitedly, this game was a bit dull, and the Thunder team suffered a rebounding loss after the opening, and found that they couldn't throw it in, and this three-point shot really solved the urgent need.

The average offensive touch on the outside made the Thunder team begin to strengthen their defense, and the three of Turtle, Soflosa, and Li Ze expanded their defensive area, trying to use pressing defense to cut off the inside and outside ties of the Mavericks.

But Nowitzki's presence has made the Thunder team unable to solve this point, and Ibaka's defense still can't limit the opponent.

By the end of the first quarter, at 30:26, the Mavericks managed to take a four-point lead.

Coach Carlisle also seemed to want to fight for a breath, and the game directly used a short rotation, in the second quarter of the game, Barria and Jason Terry came off the bench, the three on the front line remained the same, and Heywood didn't even get a chance to play...

And the Thunder team is also a little more energetic, except for Collison to replace Kostic, the other starters continue to play.

The Thunder began to chase the score, and the Mavericks responded, and the Turtle took advantage of Collisson's blocking, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, and against Tyson Chandler's defense, switched hands in the air to score the ball, and also got a chance to add a free throw.

Back in the day, the Mavericks' Jason Terry took advantage of Tyson Chandler's pick-and-roll to briefly shake off Soflosa's entanglement and hit a pull-up jumper from beyond the three-point line to score the ball.

The Thunder team quickly sent out the baseline ball, Li Ze quickly dribbled across the halfcourt, Marion chose to stick to the defense directly outside the three-point line, Li Ze protected the ball with his back, and after the shoulder shook confusingly, he quickly lowered the center of gravity of his body, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, just took a step over the three-point line, and quickly stepped back and pulled.

The right hand feigned the ball, a feint to worship the Buddha, and once again clicked on Marion's defense, and the left hand quickly changed direction in front of the body, and then made a mid-range pull-up jump shot.

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

"I said it! I'll shake you again! I can score easily! ”

After the score, Li Ze immediately chattered trash talk at Marion, and as soon as the linesman saw such a situation, he hurriedly blew the whistle to warn the two.

“WOW！ I love this counterpoint! It's a great Easter fight! ”

ESPN's commentator Mike Brin on the sidelines didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and even praised Li Ze's trash talk...

Although the score was still behind, the Russian fans at the scene were about to go berserk, and everyone began to shout frantically for the home team's defense:

“Defense！ Defense！ Defense！ ”

In the following game, the two sides fell into a defensive battle, the Mavericks continued to use their two-three defense to limit Li Ze's play, while the Thunder used their own outside defense to force the Mavericks to give the ball to the inside.

Under the constant chicken soup of Coach Brooks, the Thunder's defense was always strong, and near the end of the game, relying on the free throws of the turtle, the score was successfully tied at 105:105, 46 seconds of game time, and the fouls of both sides accumulated to the state of free throws.

Theoretically, both teams have an attack, and during the timeout, coach Carlisle reminded his players loudly:

"Hey!! Stay sober and don't be affected by the atmosphere of the scene, the other party has reached the state of punishment! We've got plenty of time to attack, listen, attack in 14 seconds or so, cover Dirk! ”

Nowitzki gasped, wiped the sweat from his face with a towel, and immediately nodded to signal that he was ready.

The Russian fans at the scene could only cheer loudly for the home team's defense at this time:

“ Defense！ Defense！ Defense！ ”

After the Mavericks sent the ball on the frontcourt, Kidd unhurriedly directed his teammates into position, and with about 12 seconds left on the offensive time, Nowitzki and Tyson Chandler made a cross cover and successfully received the ball in the waist position.

In the face of Ibaka's defense, he quickly released the ball with his right hand after three threats, dribbled two steps into the paint area, and then turned directly to close the ball, and the huge Golden Rooster made an independent backward jumper.

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

"Oh!!"

“ My god！！”

The Russian fans at the scene let out a huge exclamation, and at the same time, the Mavericks began to celebrate wildly, and then everyone found that the Thunder did not ask for a timeout at all, and directly and quickly sent out the baseline ball.

Coach Brooks kept gesturing on the sidelines, shouting excitedly:

“Kayce！！ Go catch the ball! Go catch the ball! ”

The Mavericks hurriedly stopped celebrating everyone, and everyone quickly did a good job of defending and settling down, at this time the initiative was completely in the hands of the Thunder team, with a two-point lead, and the Mavericks did not dare to foul easily.

After Li Ze dribbled through the half, he kept dribbling the ball under his crotch directly away from the three-point line, consuming time, he understood what Coach Brooks meant, the game hit this, and the timeout he called was also for him to catch the ball, anyway, it was thrown to him...

At this time, the Ford Center Arena had become a little quiet, and all the fans were watching Li Ze's final attack.

With 10 seconds left in the game, Li Ze adjusted his breathing, faced Marion's defense, started directly away from the three-point line, and dribbled with a jump step in his right hand, quickly changing direction in front of the body.

Marion already faintly felt that something was wrong, he was desperately sticking to the defense, trying to interfere with Li Ze's offensive rhythm, and the two could even feel each other's breathing...

Li Ze pressed the center of gravity of his body very low at this time, and his left hand changed backwards with a very fast crotch, directly exerting force with his feet, and retreating and jumping at a distance outside the left three-point line.

"Hum..."

“Kayce！ Stept back ！ For the win！ YSE！！ YES！！ ”

On the ESPN commentary bench, Mike Brin was already screaming excitedly.

The lights are on at the end of the court, and the three-point shot is hollow into the net...

"Ahh

The Ford Center Arena immediately erupted in huge cheers, and the fans in Russia all subconsciously stood up and screamed, and the teammates on the bench didn't wait for Li Ze to pretend to be X, and hugged each other directly.

Li Ze only felt more and more arms on his body, and he just wanted to shout at this time:

"Let me put on an X!"
