The decline of many things is unpredictable.

Even the mighty Roman Empire only died on a Tuesday in 1453.

So, even if he is as great as Shay, after half a month of struggle, people believe that he is finally going to start to decline, pass away, and regret retirement.

However, Shay, who had a week's rest, was in a completely different state tonight!

Shay continued to defend Durant in the opening game, and the most terrifying thing was that he actually recovered the basket from the midcourt to cover Durant's fast-break dunk.

This is simply more than anyone expected.

If Shay was in Journey to the West, he would have tasted Tang monk's meat.

It's like immortality, eternal youth!

Some are strong, and maybe they will decline on a Tuesday.

Some are firm and may fade after 40 minutes.

But some greatness is really going to become eternal!

Scene, Brian. Davis was still reluctant to praise Shay. So he found another way and praised the Lakers' team doctor:

"The Lakers team doctor and the Trail Blazers veterinarian are the two ceilings of the league's medical community!

The Trail Blazers can make young stars wither quickly.

And the Lakers can rejuvenate an aging star! ”

But in Waiti's view, Shay's recovery is not because of the Lakers' rejuvenation.

It was the provocation of Durant and the outside media that deeply stimulated the competitive spirit of the basketball god.

A strong desire to win is what makes Shay so good.

On the Internet, Shay's wind review has also undergone a 180° change:

"Damn, if Shay were to fight the Christmas War in this state, wouldn't Ajan be locked in the conference room and starved for three days?"

"It's hard to imagine that the scoring champion would be so embarrassed by the 40-year-old Shay!"

"Never provoke a lion!"

"Durant doesn't need to respect Shay, he just needs to enjoy Shay's beating of him."

Durant also got up from the ground at this time, and he didn't dare to look at Shay.

He suddenly felt that everything seemed to be the same as in 2009.

No matter how good his scoring ability is, he still looks like a rookie in front of Shay.

After Shay yelled at the stands, he also chased Adu and continued to spew trash talk:

"It's okay, it's normal for me to be the top scorer. After all, since me, the award of scoring champion has no gold in the first place.

And you are undoubtedly the most watery of the scoring champions of all ages.

Because there has never been a scoring champion in history who would be so embarrassed in front of a 40-year-old player! ”

Shay's mouth attack greatly frustrated Adu's psychology. The game has just begun, and Durant's sharpness has already been reduced by more than half.

Although Adu was blocked, the ball still belongs to the Thunder after all.

The Thunder kicked the sideline ball to attack again, and this time, Adu finally didn't ask for the ball again, and honestly helped Rose open up space.

Gerrard. Wallace is responsible for defending Rose, and although Meow's athleticism is terrifying, as soon as Rose starts, Meow can only wait to be passed like a stake.

But fortunately, Noah made up for it in time to block Rose's breakthrough route.

Seeing this, Rose had to choose a mid-range pull-up jump shot, and under Meow's interference, the basketball still didn't score!

Thunder fans still have to stand and watch!

The Lakers had another chance to extend their advantage, but this time the Thunder retreated quite quickly and did not let the Lakers fight back again.

So far in the game, the Lakers' goals have been fast-break goals.

The Lakers have not yet achieved anything in the positional battle.

Rose bit Curry, and Durant was also actively defending Meow. The Thunder's positional defense will not be so easily broken, and the two outside lines have not had many opportunities.

Just before the chase, Shay's pass to Meow was stealed by Adu.

Seeing that there was no chance on the outside, Shay fed the ball to Randolph, but Randolph was really difficult to play in the face of Ibaka, who was a perverted man with long arms, and was strong and athletic.

Ibaka is not afraid of Randolph's backs at all, and he doesn't eat feints much.

Although Ibaka has a lot of block stats, he is different from Camby's brush of blocking for the sake of blocking, and Ibaka's judgment on the defensive end is really good.

Seeing that there was no room to shoot, Randolph suddenly turned around, leaned on Ibaka and forced to the basket, occupying the dominant position of half of his body, and then took three steps directly to prepare for a dunk.

When Krandolph smashed the ball hard into the basket, Ibaka's big hand was just in front of the basket.

Although Ibaka was half a body behind at the beginning, his terrifying bounce ability and exaggerated arm span still allowed him to block the basket for the first time. In the end, Randolph's dunk was bloodied by Ibaka!

It turns out that men over 20 cm are indeed fierce! What's more, Ibaka still has two things that are more than 20 centimeters!

The Lakers' positional offense failed again!

Randolph has been the Lakers' second-leading scorer since Roy's injury.

After the increase in shooting power this season, Randolph was able to average 20+ data per game after four seasons.

As the Lakers' second attack, Randolph has always been the Lakers' most consistent interior killer.

As a result, today, Randolph was blocked and dunked on the first offense. Sure enough, this season, the Thunder's interior line really can't be casually scored.

If you break in casually, you are likely to be strangled directly!

After filling in the weaknesses of the interior, the Thunder's positional defense is indeed at the top level in the league.

The positional defense hasn't dropped points on two consecutive rounds, which may be the only consolation for Thunder fans today.

But soon, Thunder fans had another consolation - the team finally scored!

In this round, Durant was still pinned down by Shay when he ran without the ball.

Rose glanced at Adu and silently lowered his center of gravity.

This means that he is going to take over the attack!

Gerrard. After Wallace had the experience he had just now, he directly let Rose go two steps.

In the first two seasons of his career, Rose hit a negligible number of three-pointers combined, 32.

And this season, which has only played 31 games so far, Rose has already shot 50 three-pointers, and his shooting percentage has touched the passing mark of 33%.

His improvement on the three-point line is not insignificant.

But Wallace still feels that Rose's three-point game is unstable, and as long as he chooses to shoot and not let go of the rush, he will definitely be able to limit Rose.

Rose did not choose to shoot directly from a distance, but suddenly accelerated towards the right side of Wallace.

Wallace immediately moved sideways to block, but just as the two were about to make physical contact, Rose suddenly forcibly changed direction and passed in front of Wallace's eyes. Because instead of slowing down, Rose's change of direction has accelerated!

Meow couldn't react at all, but his positive defensive attitude still made him forcibly turn his center of gravity and prepare to continue blocking.

The end result was that Wallace stumbled and fell to the floor.

Rose entered the penalty area and scored a layup in the face of Noara who came up from the defense, and successfully scored!

Wallace, who got the first defense last season, and Noah, the future DPOY, and Rose in the MVP season at one time, are terrifying!

The Thunder finally pulled a goal back, and the Goose City fans were finally able to sit down.

Although it wasn't Durant's points, it wasn't enough to relieve his anger, but at least he got points.

After that, the Lakers' positional offense failed again.

This time, instead of another pass, Shay broke through Seforrosa and made a pull-up jumper from mid-range.

But I don't know if it's because I haven't played an official game for a week and my hands are still relatively cold, Shay's pull-up jump shot actually pops out of the frame!

The Lakers still didn't score in the Thunder's positional defense!

Brian. Davis was finally able to start speaking stiffly:

"There's nothing the Lakers can do with our offense!

Shay can only shoot from mid-range right now, because he knows he's dead end once he gets inside.

Now he simply doesn't have the ability to pose a threat to our inside line!

But Sephorosa is not a vegetarian either, and Shay can shoot hard from mid-range, how much shooting percentage can he have?

So, don't look at Kevin being defended by Shay a few times in a row, but the advantage is still on our side!

Shay was lucky to keep Durant on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, he didn't even have a chance to get lucky! ”

Saying that it was too late, Rose accelerated directly from receiving the pass at the back this time, and shook off Gerrard in a step or two. Wallace.

By the time he ran near the halfway line, Wallace had been completely distanced by Rose.

Shay was defending Durant, and he knew he couldn't give Durant any open space, so he couldn't help defend.

So the task of intercepting Rose fell to Curry, the first dunk in Lakers history.

Curry intercepted Rose near the halfway line, but Rose changed direction at high speed and easily passed Curry.

In the end, Rose made it to the three-point line and scored on a layup before Noah and Randolph were ready to defend!

In the blink of an eye, Rose rushed from the backfield to the frontcourt, and forced the position into a fast attack!

The Thunder scored again, and the score equalized!

The whole world was lamenting Rose's speed, and Thunder fans were even more ecstatic. Adu is a piece of shit, but at least we have Rose!

Abdul:???

You just said that I am the new god of basketball!

Brian. Davis also shouted excitedly:

"Even if Kevin doesn't feel good for a while, we still have Derek. Ross!

Too big！ Too strong！ Too fast！ Too good！

This is Derek. Rose, he's definitely more deserving than Shay to be at the top of the MVP rankings!

Shay thinks he can win by not letting Durant score for the time being? No, unless he can also crack the Thunder's positional defense. Otherwise, the Lakers won't stand a chance!

Shay thought that today was the battle of his name, no, today was a battle of the eras! ”

Shay also really admired Rose's counterattack just now, this speed, this change of direction, and this finishing ability are very difficult to limit.

It seems that the next leg is a sure goal.

If the Thunder is fully activated, the situation will become quite troublesome.

While Thunder fans were still basking in Rose's beautiful one-off goal, Shay had already hit the Thunder's three-point line.

Sephorosa continued to defend Shay with a close-knit approach, and he had boundless trust in Ibaka and Perkins behind him.

He just bet that Shay wouldn't dare to break through the interior directly, so the main defense shot was good.

But Shay is well aware that it is now necessary to attack the interior to get a better chance.

Although Ibaka and Perkins' defense is indeed very fierce, Randolph can only eat hot pot when he goes in just now.

But now I can only move forward.

Shay paused outside the three-point line, apparently trying to put his hands together.

After deceiving Sephorosa's center of gravity, Shay suddenly accelerated again and headed straight for the inside.

Sephorosa moved sideways to block, but Shay forced his way through the first hurdle.

But as soon as Shay broke through Sephorosa, sure enough, Ibaka had already waved his long arm to help defend him!

Ibaka's defensive area is very large, and he moves quickly, which is simply a weapon of help.

The interior defensive combination of him and Perkins is a complete replica of the combination of Celtics Garnett + Perkins.

A squat, a co-defense, and a pretty strong interior defense.

Shay wanted to pass the ball to Randolph, but considering Ibaka's extremely fast movement, even if he passed to Randolph, he would be able to get in place and interfere with Randolph's shot.

Therefore, Shay finally insisted on continuing to break into the inside line!

However, although Shay's knee has recovered a lot, the current speed attribute is only 74 after all.

As a result, Shay was not able to pass directly past Ibaka.

One of Ibaka's arms directly stopped Shay, but Shay still forced a jump in such a situation and continued to make a layup.

Ibaka held one hand in front of Shay's chest, the other ready to block from the back. Shay is equivalent to being in Ibaka's arms, directly being hugged!

In the air, under the obstruction of Iba's hands, Shay's body could not continue to rise at all, and the whole person began to fall. In desperation, Shay could only grab the ball with one hand, stretched out from his waist, and barely picked the ball out with one hand.

In the next second, Shay fell to the ground heavily.

Thunder fans immediately cheered, and Brian. Davis also raised his arms:

"It's all said, challenging the Thunder's restricted area is a dead end!

Did Shay think he was still the same Shay who could score recklessly under the basket? ”

Does he really think this Thunder is still what it was in 2009? ”

Although soon the referee blew the whistle and gave Ibaka a defensive foul. But neither the Thunder fans nor Ibaka himself cared about it, and it was a defensive way to teach Shay a lesson with a vicious foul.

Ibaka even had some disdain in his heart: "Heh, the ultimate killer Shay, that's it?" But that's it. ”

But after the whistle disappeared, it was followed by the sound of the Nets tumbling.

Ibaka turned his head in shock, only to see the referee make a gesture: "The goal is valid, add a penalty!" ”

That's right, Shay just picked up the basket with one hand when he was directly held by Ibaka, and it went straight into the net! Ibaka hugged Shay directly in the air, but he couldn't stop Shay from scoring!

Although Shay's bounce and speed have slowed down, his layup stats have not decreased at all.

As long as he can get into the box, he has a way to pull off all kinds of difficult layups!

The interior defense that Thunder fans are proud of was broken by the 40-year-old Shay's first attempt to break through!

Brian. Davis also covered his face, no. What did I do with this?

Whatever you say, it's the other way around!

Shay got up from the ground unhurriedly, and then patted Ibaka on the shoulder:

"I don't have the strength to foul, and I still say that I am a brutalist power forward? Hahahaha. ”

Ibaka's ferocious defense, instead of having any deterrent effect, was mercilessly ridiculed by Shay!

Shay also stepped up to the free-throw line and steadily threw the ball in with one hand to keep his team in the lead!

It turns out that even if the Thunder's interior defense is upgraded, Shay can still score points!

Defensively, Shay made Adu feel pain.

attacked, and the twin towers that the Thunder was originally proud of were also pierced by Shay's blow.

The defense can limit Adu, and the offense can respond to Rose.

Thunder fans are now aware of the seriousness of the matter – Shay has fully recovered his form!

Shay didn't struggle with the old dragon clock, didn't die in despair.

With the divine power of the god of basketball, he returned strongly!

Two MVPs before the five-day pile? Never mind.

In front of the first in history, the top five MVPs add up, and they are not enough to watch!

There will certainly be alternating days in history.

But Shay is sure that it's definitely not now!
