The Oklahoma City Thunder have proven how important a good draft vision is for a team that struggles to attract superstars.

Several of the main players of the Thunder team now, Durant, Rose, Sergi. Ibaka and others were all selected by the Thunder themselves in the draft.

In just three years, the team has gone from a promising youth army to a full-fledged championship team with two top-five MVP candidates.

Therefore, if the lynx can't develop, Danzi's vicious vision is at least a major responsibility.

If he could pick a useful one, the Bobcats wouldn't be so useless.

Running a team is like singing, and the vision of selecting people directly determines the quality of the next game experience.

The Thunder team has a good eye for selecting people, and the game experience can be described as quite comfortable.

And the rise of this young team makes this game full of a special sense of collision of the times.

Shay, as a star in the 90s, went against a star who only reached his peak in the 10s.

This kind of matchup is usually only possible when playing classic teams in 2K games.

Coupled with Durant's provocation and recent remarks about Shay's "smart knee avoidance", the attention of this game has been pushed to the top.

Ever since Durant was caught using his trumpet to black Shay and was beaten up, he has always regarded Shay as an enemy.

No way, Shay's "50 points tonight" performance in front of Adu in the 09 playoffs is an indelible classic case of beep in NBA history, and it is also an indelible shame for Adu.

And Adu, everyone knows it, and he has always held grudges.

In the original history, after leaving the Warriors, he praised the news of Black Curry or something, and only Adu could do it. At most, others are clear, but only Adu is so real.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Adu, who has always disliked Shay and holds a grudge very much, said something like "I don't respect Shay, he is old".

Moreover, in an ugly country, this attitude is quite normal. Back then, the unruly AI that dared to argue with everyone was quite popular.

What's more, on the stage of competitive sports, there is no such thing as respecting the old and loving the young.

It doesn't matter if you're young or old.

In the future in the ugly national men's basketball training camp, at the age of 45, Monty will become the pinnacle of the Suns coach in the future. Williams, didn't you let go of the 30-year-old young Zhan.

Of course, you can be ruthless, but you have to show the strength to match it.

This season's Adu does have the strength to beat Shay.

Previously, the Thunder had won against the Lakers once, achieving a breakthrough of 0 wins against Shay.

The combination of him and Rose is definitely capable of disgrace Shay.

Shay is now in the midst of a "war avoidance" and has been in poor form lately, which has added to Adu's self-confidence.

The Chesapeake Energy Arena was overcrowded that day, and the people of Goose City were expecting Adu to press the aging Shay to the ground and rub it.

Judging from Shay's state in the previous half month, he will die today!

The heat of this game is not even lower than that of the Christmas War!

When Shay, who had missed a week, appeared on the field, countless fans held up signs with the words "coward" and "escapee".

Shay looked at these fanatical fans and took a deep breath.

It is said that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the former Shay was also a fierce back wave, stepping on the shoulders of countless legendary superstars to climb to the top.

And now, he himself has become a former wave.

It's just that he doesn't want to be filmed dead on the shore yet.

Shay held his knee for a moment, then straightened up and began to warm up.

Now, Shay's knee is basically back to normal, and there is no more soreness and discomfort.

And as long as she's fit, shea has the confidence to dominate the game.

He wants to let the people of Goose City know that there are really legends that never die in this world, and there are mountains that cannot be crossed!

But in Goose City, the focus isn't on Shay, who is making a comeback.

It's the man who combines handsomeness and temperament.

During the pre-match interview, a beautiful female reporter made Adu a little shy in front of the camera.

The female reporter approached Durant and asked a very regular question: "How has the team prepared so far?" ”

Adu nervously and shyly bent over the female reporter and smelled the faint body fragrance on her body.

Damn, I'm thirsty again!

Then, not knowing whether it was because he was too nervous or because he was carried away by the scent, Adu gave an answer that had nothing to do with the question:

"We are very well prepared!

Ah no, that's wrong. It is. Belch. Everyone is very well prepared. That is, uh, very, good. ”

The female reporters were all laughing awkwardly, almost missing a hole in the floor of the court.

Perhaps sensing the embarrassing atmosphere, Adu wanted to immediately remedy it with a domineering answer:

"In short, Shay has no way to escape from me today!"

As soon as these words came out, they naturally angered a group of Shay's fans.

Mad!

It's crazy!

Shay has only missed two games, but he has been in poor form in the last half month, and you started again?

However, it's not just Durant who is showing off Shay, it's the entire Thunder team.

Before the start of the game, in order to boost morale and shock the opponent, the Thunder team also held a huge starter introduction ceremony.

Everyone will glare at Shay fiercely from the time they appear.

When Durant was the last to play, the DJ now deliberately added a sentence in front of his name: "Change him to the new god of basketball!" ”

Before, Ajan only boasted that he was the king.

Adu is good, directly the new god of basketball.

The Thunder's starting five Tigers stood in front of the Lakers, all full of youthful vitality and vigor.

Rose, Sephorosa, Durant, Ibaka, Perkins.

The biggest change in the Thunder's current lineup compared to the previous one is the interior lineup.

In 09, the Thunder was too weak on the inside defense, so Shay gave a "50 points tonight" performance.

But now, they have a 28-centimeter man in the second grade who has begun to make his mark.

Possessing a championship center this period of high-quality squatting meat shield Perkins.

These two guys, one thick and the other long, make everyone who enters the forbidden area want to die.

The addition of the two of them directly improved the defensive intensity of the Thunder. Let the weakness of the year directly become the strong point now.

Anyone who dares to enter the Thunder's restricted area will be directly dismantled by Ibaka and Perkins.

There's excellent interior defense and two young stars in the top five MVPs.

This little goose town is indeed full of dangers!

As the game began, fans throughout the Chesapeake Energy Arena stood up and cheered for the impending brutal massacre.

It's part of the fan culture of the people of Goose City, and Thunder fans will stand and cheer on the team until the Thunder score the first goal of the game.

With his perverted athleticism, Ibaka easily fought for a basketball from Noah's head. This guy's physical fitness is so strong that it almost makes people see his predecessor Rain Man Kemp.

After all, in addition to the 28-centimeter sling, Ibaka's Achilles tendon is also 26 centimeters long, and the bouncing ability is amazing.

After getting the basketball, Rose was responsible for dribbling the ball across the half court.

But Rose didn't attack on his own as soon as he came up, but handed the ball to Adu.

Adu stands outside the three-point line, ready to single Shay!

Adu averaged 30 points per game last season and is at the top of the league's scoring charts so far this season.

He's already the league's best scorer.

Although in the last game against the Lakers, it was Gerrard who played against Adu. Wallace.

But facing Shay today, Adu felt that it was no different from facing Wallace.

Wallace is even more athletic, and he can't stop me.

Shay, he's a der!

What's more, he is still an old man for nearly half a month, and he doesn't have the courage to face Shay, who is the Heat.

Adu made a couple of triple maneuvers and then called in Serge Ibaka to cover and get ready to take a breakaway shot after taking the screen.

This is Adu's most efficient way to score right now.

Adu deftly activated, and Ibaka also set up cover with his strong body.

After Durant put up cover, he found himself in front of him. Sure enough, Shay couldn't bypass the cover in the first place to keep up!

Seeing this, Adu did not hesitate and started shooting directly from outside the three-point line.

Heh, Shay's defense is nothing more than that for me now!

He's old and can't keep up with my pace and rhythm at all now!

Durant confidently aimed at the basket and was already thinking about what to use to celebrate.

Thunder fans also cheered collectively and prepared to take their seats.

But just a second before he made a shot, Adu felt that someone picked up the basketball from the bottom up and asked him to get rid of it.

Just as Adu was surprised, Shay immediately jumped up beside him and grabbed the flying basketball with both hands!

It turned out that just now, Shay flexibly bypassed Ibaka's cover in an instant, and stayed close to Durant's side and back. And at the moment when Durant lifted the basketball, he jumped up at the right time and picked the ball straight away! The blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation of Durant and Ibaka is completely useless for Shay!

All Thunder fans were a little surprised, how did they feel that Shay's agility on the defensive end had become faster again?

Although the cover just now was not as fast as it was at its peak, it was finally prevented.

In the imagination of Thunder fans and Durant, the senile Shay should be powerless to resist.

But in this first round, Shay easily defended the contemporary scoring champion!

The fans of Goose City pouted in disappointment and could only continue to stand and watch.

As soon as Shay got the basketball, he launched a counterattack and passed the ball to Gerrard, who was already habitually plugged in quickly. Wallace.

But Ibaka was just as fast, the cap maniac chased after Wallace, and the moment Meow jumped, he also bounced high to prepare for the block.

If it was just a normal dunk, then Wallace's ball would inevitably be covered.

Ibaka has a lot of blocking ability and willingness, and his arm length combined with his reach allows him to cover the sky directly under the basket.

After all, that's a career-high man who averaged 3.7 blocks per game.

But Gerald. Wallace dodged Ibaka with a lever in the air, and then immediately reached to the other side to complete a lever slam!

When a beast meets a beast, it is able to trigger this blood-clashing aerial duel.

While the dunk was spectacular, there was no cheering in the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

thought that Durant would be the first to score, but he was defended by Shay in the first round.

Judging from the first round, Shay was full of energy, and it was indeed a little different from the previous half month.

Adu is naturally very embarrassed, he said so many cruel things before the game, and he was blocked in the first round, what will others think of me?

Still unconvinced, Adu winked at Ross, saying that he wanted to attack again.

Ross is also not the kind of person who likes to fight for power, what is the main offense and the secondary offense? Let's talk about it.

So the Thunder team's second offense, although Durant did not hold the ball, Rose was deliberately waiting for Adu to run and continue to play Adu.

Durant decided to play without the ball with Shay this time, it was indeed too simple to play just now, Shay is the only three-time DPOY in history after all, and he should not be underestimated too much.

But this time, Adu still didn't believe that Shay's old state could keep up with him.

He can't run fast anymore, I can get him in minutes!

Thunder home commentator Brian. Davis, on the other hand, is trying to save his life for Adu:

"Kevin will never miss again this offense, just now mainly because of Sergi. Ibaka's pick-and-roll position went wrong and gave Shay a chance.

But considering Sergi is a young player, it's inevitable to make some mistakes.

But this time, KD has been seriously getting rid of the ball.

He's sure he'll finish and the Oklahoma fans will be able to sit down in no time. ”

Brian. Davis is a commentator who is extremely biased in favor of the home field.

While most home commentators will favor their home team, the likes of Bryan. Davis's commentary, which almost does not praise the opposing players, but praises his own players, is really rare.

You're Jordan to change hands in the air, Brian. Davis will also interpret it for you as a "convulsive luck goal in the air".

So although Shay's defense just now was actually beautiful, he only interpreted it as luck.

Adu struggled to run, and when he cut into the three-second zone, he suddenly ran back and ran outside the three-point line on the other side.

By this time, Perkins had already covered at the free-throw line, and the position was perfect.

As a former Celtics' champion center, Perkins has a much better pick-and-roll option than Ibaka.

Seeing Shay chasing after him and about to crash into Perkins, Brian. Davis felt the goal was secured:

"Pour Perkins a cup of tea, okay? Start your pick-and-roll show! Under such a block, Shay can still prevent it? You Shay can stop Durant today with Perkins' perfect off-ball block, and I'll eat this computer screen in front of me on the spot! ”

Brian. By the time Davis said this, Adu had already passed Perkins' off-ball screen, and Rose immediately fed the ball in tacit understanding.

Everything looked fine, and the Thunder fans were once again ready to cheer and take their seats.

But Shay flashed nimbly again, bypassing Perkins' cover, and then rushed out and stretched out his long arms, stunned to shoot the basketball before Adu, and once again successfully sabotaged the offense!

Pick-and-rolls with the ball and pick-and-rolls off the ball are useless for Shay!

In that moment, Brian. Davis was shocked.

Didn't Shay go around the cover too fast just now!

Is this really the Shay of the previous half month?

The first time Shay got rid of it easily, he could still find the reason of "Ibaka's poor choice of blocking position".

But this time, Perkins' cover was really fine. But Shay is flexible and precise to get around the screen, and because his arms are long enough, many passes that seem safe will be destroyed under Shay's defense!

This under Brian. Davis was embarrassed, and sat on the bench for a long time without speaking.

Is it better to dip a computer screen in black pepper or ketchup?

The Goose City fans at the scene also rejoiced again, is it so difficult for Adu to score today?

When the hell will we be able to sit down!?

Also, why did Shay play as energetic as he did in his prime?

After Shay completed the steal, he looked at Meow, who was running forward, and prepared to pass the ball again.

Ibaka started immediately, and this time he would never let Meow score quickly.

Let you taste my 28 cm slinger, ah no, the 26 cm Achilles tendon is amazing!

But in the next second, Shay, who was originally looking at Meow, passed the ball to Curry who was inserted from the other side, and this unseen pass caught the Thunder off guard!

Curry hit the basket under Sefrosa's pursuit, and many people may not believe it when he said it. Brooks is desperate.

But fortunately, this time the elementary school students did not have brain pumping.

He didn't dunk, but scored with a high toss.

The Lakers started 4-0!

Although Shay has not scored a point so far, Shay's two wonderful defenses against Adu still surprised the Thunder fans at the scene.

This Nima is the world's top scorer!

As for Shay, he has not performed well for nearly half a month, and he still has a knee injury.

Before the game, most people also thought that Adu would disgrace Shay.

How did it turn out like this?

Shay was so flexible on the defensive end today because his knee had recovered a lot, bringing his athleticism back to the level he had at the start of the season.

So, proper rest is sometimes quite important.

Shay looked at the unruly Durant before the game, and finally said the first sentence of the day:

"Your offense isn't as strong as the girl I played yesterday!"

The corners of Adu's mouth twitched, and he gritted his teeth, obviously angry.

The first point of anger was to be so humiliated by Shay.

The second point of qi is. He actually played with a girl in Oklahoma yesterday?

This. Why can he!?

I'll wipe you and just spit in my face!

In the third round, Durant was ready to hit Shay with his back.

But during this period, Adu's back play was not mature enough. In addition, it is too thin, so the back body is completely unable to advance.

In the end, he reluctantly turned over and jumped out of the frame, and Shay prevented the scoring champion for three consecutive rounds!

Thunder fans are completely confused, Shay if this is the case. It is indeed impossible to deliberately avoid the war!

Brian. Davis immediately yelled, "Foul!" ”

This is really too far away, and they are all starting to talk nonsense.

But fortunately, the referee was not blind and the game was able to continue.

This time, the Thunder retreated quickly and did not give Shay another opportunity to launch a quick attack easily.

Shay had to slowly push through the half and play positional attacks.

In positional battles, Sephorosa was in charge of defending Shay, Rose was targeting Curry, and Adu was defending Wallace.

Shay didn't plan to force the attack, but waited for Wallace to cut in so that he could continue to lead the team with assists.

Wallace also suddenly started running to the basket from beyond the three-point line, and Shay was just right in time to get the ball in.

But this time, the basketball didn't go smoothly to Wallace. Because Durant actually reacted immediately and used his arm length advantage to steal the basketball!

This break made the Thunder fans raise their eyebrows fiercely.

Hahahaha, only you can steal, right?

We can defend Adu too!

Shay admits that he underestimated Adu's defensive ability at the moment.

Durant's defense has indeed improved in recent years, although Adu has never been selected for the defensive team in his career, but these super scorers with excellent physical conditions are actually just bad defensive habits, and it is difficult to focus on the defensive end.

After all, they grew up with only offense to solve most of their problems.

The problem with Adu is that it's hard to stay focused on the defensive end all the time, but when focused, with his size and athleticism, he's by no means a defensive black hole.

After completing the steal, Durant quickly counterattacked.

Because of his big pace, he had already run through the half of the court in three or two steps.

It's just like Shay back then.

Adu was already running outside the three-point line on the other end, and Shay had just started to chase for the half, and the rest of the Lakers had not yet reacted.

There is no one in front of Durant, and as long as he doesn't move this time, he will definitely be able to break the scoring drought!

Although Shay is very active in chasing, because the distance is too far, with his current state of 40 years old, there is basically no possibility of catching up.

If it's the pinnacle Shay, maybe he can turn decay into magic.

But now Shay, there are no more wholesale miracles!

At this moment, cheers finally burst into cheers again in the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

This time, even if the king of heaven is here, it is impossible to stop Du Shuai from scoring!

Damn it is finally time to sit and watch the game!

In order to make sure that nothing was wrong, Adu also slowed down and adjusted his pace.

After all, not everyone can show off their fantasy dance moves under the nose of the referee.

After running into the three-second zone, Adu took two clean strides, then jumped up with one hand to dunk.

But in the process, Thunder fans were surprised to find that Shay quickly caught up with Durant at an incredible speed.

And at the moment when Durant was about to dunk the ball into the basket, he jumped up at a height and speed that was not suitable for his age, and came to a pegboard before the basketball entered the frame! The eyes of the whole court widened, and Shay ran from the halfcourt line to cover Durant's inevitable dunk!

He still didn't let the top scorer score!

Brian. Davis's voice trembled: "How is this possible!?" ”

Indeed, how is this possible? This is the question on the minds of all the fans who are watching this game.

How could Shay still run so fast? Jumping that high?

In the past half a month, Shay has obviously begun to be overwhelmed?

The speed and height of Shay's pursuit of Adu just now are not to say that they are exactly the same as those in his peak, but they really let everyone see the shadow of his peak.

In fact, Shay was able to run so fast and jump so high just now, not only because of the recovery of his knees, but also because of the gold-level "Dash from Back" badge that he had just drawn before the start of the season.

The effect of this badge is to increase Shay's speed and bounce height when chasing the attack, and in combination with the "Hot Pot Maniac" badge that has accompanied Shay for almost his entire career, it can increase the speed of the block.

This allowed Shay to complete the shocking half-court chase that shouldn't have belonged to a 40-year-old player!

Of course, Adu took the initiative to slow down and adjust his pace, which was also one of the reasons why he was caught up by Shay.

So, fantasy dance moves have to be learned!

Take two steps, take two steps without illness!

The basketball was fanned out of the bottom line, and the originally lively scene suddenly became quiet.

A goal that was considered to be no suspense was covered by Shay.

Just now they were still thinking that even if the king of heaven is here, Durant will have to score this goal.

But it turns out that Shay is bigger than the king of heaven on the basketball court!

Durant lay on the ground, and his shame was even more explosive.

As the scoring champion, he was actually pressed to the ground by 40-year-old Shay, and failed to score in several rounds in a row!

Shay, who was standing on the ground, shook his finger and continued to add the "Block to the cap and shake your finger to the capped person to get a certain block speed and continuous jump ability" buff to the "Hot Pot Maniac" badge.

Then, Shay faced the stands and pointed at all the Thunder fans and yelled:

"You can sit down when I allow you to sit down! Now, let's continue to stand and watch the game! ”

Shay took advantage of the fact that Thunder fans didn't sit down when they couldn't see the first goal, and pretended to be fierce.

I also swore my strong comeback!

At this time, Shay has completely lost the old state of the previous half a month, and seems to have returned to the first place in the MVP list that can have 11 consecutive triple-doubles!

Immediately after reacting, the Thunder fans burst into huge boos, and the entire arena was covered by boos.

But Shay was smiling very happily.

On the road, boos are respectful!

No matter how much Durant and Thunder fans say before the game, their reaction at this moment means that they still respect and fear Shay!

Avoiding war? Senescence?

You guys have a try!

It was a perfect start that allowed Shay to fire the first shot of his comeback.

It's just that it hasn't hit the key point of the Thunder team yet.

So next.

Just find a way to kill with one shot!

Today's 10,000-word update is presented, and the conscience of the old man kneels and begs for a monthly pass!
