Chapter 295: James with an Exploding Heart!

The news of Durant's season reimbursement is still burning, and the entire NBA is in a mess.

At present, in the entire West, the first place is the Los Angeles Lakers, 50-5, and the second place is the Golden State Warriors, with a record of 45 wins and 10 losses.

And the other teams, it's not that they don't care about the regular season results.

Rather, because of some special considerations, these teams in the West bite very tightly and do not intend to chase the first and second.

So, the record is generally very even.

This so-called special consideration is naturally considering whether the Lakers are going to fall to the eighth place in the West.

The Lakers don't look at the top record, but fans of most teams in the West are calling for their teams to fall to the eighth playoffs to play the Lakers.

The Lakers' style of play is the best team to bully in the playoffs.

The Rockets even took out the Lakers 2-1 this season.

When it comes to the playoffs, won't the Rockets play casually?

If the Lakers are blacked out in the first round, then this division is really good, directly avoiding the Warriors, who are really the strongest in the West.

Therefore, one of the wonders of the current West is that everyone does not plan to avoid the Lakers, who are the first in the West.

What everyone wants to avoid more now is the second-place Warriors in the West.

This is actually understandable.

So, now the teams in the West are basically on the sidelines.

These strong teams are waiting to see what the future holds, so that they can get a suitable position at the last minute.

For example, the Spurs, this team is very chicken thief, and has been dangling in the fourth and fifth positions.

This actually belongs to Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it.

How average is the ranking of the West right now?

In addition to the Lakers in first place and the Warriors in second place.

The remaining seven teams that can compete for the playoffs have won no more than four games!

In third place is the Rockets, who just beat the Lakers, and beat the Spurs to move into third place in the West, with a record of 38 wins and 17 losses.

In fourth place is the Trail Blazers, who are in the first place in the Northwest Division with 36 wins and 19 losses.

In fifth place is the Spurs, who are 37-18.

In sixth place is the Thunder, who are currently 36-19.

As for seventh, the Mavericks are 37-20.

In eighth place is the 35-20 Timberwolves.

In ninth place is the Grizzlies, who are 34-21.

Look at this ranking, saying that spurs and chicken thieves, although they are not wronged, but everyone is a chicken thief.

The Mavericks have been staring at the Timberwolves while holding the Spurs on the shoulders.

While the Thunder are staring at the Spurs, they are also eyeing the Trail Blazers, who are the first in the division.

The gap between everyone is not big, and as long as one acceleration, it can be turned upside down.

At this stage, everyone is afraid to run, and they don't dare to rest, which is a very strange atmosphere.

Because, seven people compete for six positions, even if you are greedy for the eighth position in the west, you don't dare to really lose indiscriminately!

So, things will become very interesting, you can't lose too much, you can't win too much, this is too TM to test judgment and acting skills, and everyone is very exhausted.

But what, now that Durant is down, can the Thunder still make the playoffs?

The Thunder have a 36-19 record, and the Grizzlies, who are ninth in the West, have a 34-21 record, two wins in between.

Can the Thunder really withstand these two wins without Durant?

If the Thunder are left behind.

So if it becomes six teams competing for six positions, can those teams that sing the Lakers be able to remediate wantonly, focus on the playoffs, and practice lineups and tactical play in the regular season?

If you consider that the Lakers are now in the regular season crazy competition to break the 72-win record, it takes a lot of consumption, plus many of the Lakers' players are veterans, if it were you, would you choose the Lakers as your opponent?

A bunch of veterans, desperate in the regular season, plus Jokic banned, can't play in the first round, no center, if your team also has a good center, will you want to pick the Lakers to play?

San Antonio.

In the Spurs' head coach's office, Popovich looked at the team's calendar in his hand in a daze.

Durant's injury is really a whole body!

Without the threat of the Thunder, the Spurs can go straight away.

"Eighth, it's our best position!"

After thinking about it for a while, Popovich said very seriously.

And Buford and Budenholzer, who were next to him, did not have any objections.

Because, they also feel that if the Spurs fall to the eighth to beat the Lakers, it is the best choice.

avoided the Warriors before the Western Conference finals, and at the same time, playing the Lakers in the first round, if they can beat the Lakers, they can even wash away the shame of being black-eight by the Lakers last season.

"Bobo, the key question now is, does the Lakers really have no center?"

After Buford finished speaking, Popovich withdrew his gaze and looked at Budenholzer next to him.

"Mike, you go and collect Yao's comeback schedule, and at the same time, help me sort out the stats and game performances of Barkley and Garnett this season."

After Popovich finished speaking, Budenholzer was ordered to leave.

At this time, in fact, not only Popovich, many people are customizing some special information and data for the Lakers this season.

This made many consulting firms in the NBA suddenly explode.

Of course, these teams that want to fall to the eighth place in the West also need to look at the face of the Thunder now, whether the Thunder team is really scrapped without Durant.

Durant is not just the boss of the team for the Thunder, Durant is also the cornerstone of this team, and the style of play revolves around Durant.

Therefore, Durant's season reimbursement is not only a sudden loss of a maximum salary, but the team's style of play must be completely changed.

Without Durant in defense, there is no speed in helping defense, and there is one less piece in helping defense.

Without Durant, the two goblins can't take turns to pick up, and Wei Shao can't pick it alone.

Without Durant, the Thunder's offensive and defensive systems collapsed.

So, these teams are also looking at the Thunder's record when they customize the data and information.

Playing the Bobcats away, the angry Wei Shao alone did 27 games alone, 12 of 27, and did a triple-double of 33 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds, and led the Thunder team to defeat the Eastern Fish Belly Bobcats away.

Playing the Western Conference Nuggets at home, Wei Shao had 21 points and 17 assists, Carter had 20 points and 12 rebounds, and Ibaka had 20 points and 8 blocks.

The Eastern Conference Fish Belly Pacers, who played Paul George's broken leg at home, Wei Shao had another triple-double, Carter and Ibaka were both 20+ again, and the Thunder once again collapsed their opponents in the third quarter.

After the absence of Durant, the Thunder seems, it seems, that there are no changes, and it seems, can still easily beat the opponent?

However, the strength of these three teams is too good, and soon, the test of the Thunder team will come.

Playing 30-28 away from the Western Lotto powerhouse Suns, Durant has been angry since his injury, 12 of 38 in this game, with a 31.6% shooting rate, cut 39 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, leading the team to lose in overtime.

Super triple-double, led the team to lose, 9 in overtime, 1 of 9, after Durant's injury, no one can suppress Wei Shao's desire, let alone the angry Wei Shao.

At the end of the game, Carter looked at the pouting with an angry and unwilling look on his face, and finally sighed and burrowed into the players' tunnel.

Carter is Durant's cooler, Durant is Wei Shao's cooler, but, Carter is not Wei Shao's cooler.

The Suns are a good team in the West, but this team can't make the playoffs in the West.

In the face of such a team and finally losing in such a way, it can be seen where Wei Shao's ceiling is with this thunder.

As long as they are dragged with the Thunder, the Thunder are likely to blow themselves up under the leadership of Westbrook!

Being killed by Wei Shao, that's your bad luck.

It is likely that Wei Shao killed himself by exploding.

Immediately after that, the Thunder played the real Western powerhouse Trail Blazers, which was almost the same script remake.

In the first three quarters, the Thunder even led by 11 points.

At that time, the entire Trail Blazers fans already felt that their team was finished.

Unexpectedly, in the fourth quarter, Wei Shao suddenly went undercover for the Trailblazers.

In the whole game, Wei Shao made 14 of 32 shots, cut a super triple-double of 40 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists, plus the shooting rate was also very good, it seems to be a super god.

In fact, it is indeed super god in three quarters, otherwise playing the Trail Blazers away would not have caused the Trail Blazers to lose by 11 points in the third quarter.

The super power turtle was super god for three quarters and almost killed the pioneer.

However, the Trail Blazers relied on Afflalo, a senior at UCLA, to score 11 points in the fourth quarter of the rotation and hold on.

Then, Wei Shao blew himself up!

In the entire fourth quarter, after Wei Shao came on the court, in just eight minutes, Wei Shao made 4 of 13 shots and 9 of them!

When Wei Shao came on, the score was 97-87, a 10-point lead.

At the end of the game, the score was 114-117 and the Thunder lost by 3 points.

With 45 seconds left in the end, when the two teams were 110-110, Wei Shao had no patience at all in just 45 seconds, with 3 consecutive irons and throwing the ball over half court.

At this point, the Western powerhouses that have been paying attention to the Thunder are finally relieved.

The strength of the Thunder, they felt.

Inconsistent, just like Willis, the Thunder have now become an extremely unstable team.

Now the Thunder's style will be the same as the previous Wei Shao's style.

Wei Shao is an unstable player.

This is actually understandable.

So, on March 1st, the Thunder went away to face the Lakers, who have not been in good shape lately.

Nash told fans in the Lakers community that the Lakers are about to get on track, and even if Jokic is suspended, the Lakers can quickly get back on winning track and successfully break the Bulls' 72-win record.

After Nash's remarks, the Lakers lost to the Rockets and even the Nets in the next game, just winning against the Jazz.

Three games with 1 win and 2 losses, and it was still a team that was not so strong.

This whole thing, Nash is as embarrassing as he wants.

Now that the Lakers are 51-6, there is still a chance to break the Bulls' record, but now more and more people are not optimistic about the Lakers.

Now, the Thunder and the Lakers, two teams that are not in good shape, have met like this.

So, it attracted the attention of the entire alliance.

"I have a hunch, I feel that this is not a game, the Lakers are going to collapse!"

James was thrilled.

He felt that he was not untargeted, he was researched.

The recent games that the Lakers have lost are actually caused by Seth Curry being targeted and blown up.

And in the entire NBA, is there a guard who is more suitable for Crashes Curry than Wei Shao?

I have to say that James's vision is really good.

In the focus battle between the Lakers and the Thunder, Wei Shao scolded Seth Curry as soon as he came up, and in the first quarter, he did a 5-of-8, 1-of-2 three-pointers, and 5-of-5 free throws, scoring 16 points in a single quarter.

In addition, Carter also played Seth Curry in the first quarter of this game, making 3 of 4 in a single quarter, 3 of 3 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 11 points in a single quarter.

The Thunder scored 37 points in the first quarter, relying on Wade's 5-of-9 performance and 10 points in the first quarter, and after 10 minutes of the first quarter, the Lakers had fallen behind by 10 points at 22-32.

But soon, instead of the regular rotation Pierce, Coach D replaced Isaiah Kanan in the rotation phase, and this became the key.

In just two minutes, Kanan relied on Wei Shao's defensive inattention, made 5 of 6 three-pointers, exploded 15 points in two minutes, and finally helped the Lakers lose by 3 points at 34-37 at the end of the first quarter.

This game is indeed quite lively.

And the whole game was like a remake of the first quarter of the game.

The two teams are really playing hard.

At the end of the fourth quarter, the two teams were tied 110-110, and with 6 seconds left in the final game, the Lakers trailed by 3 points 107-110.

Coach D didn't let Kanan and Seth Curry shoot three-pointers, but let Wade shoot three-pointers, which really shook the world a shot.

James in front of the TV was so angry that he wanted to smash the TV.

In this game, the two unstable teams, the Lakers and the Thunder, really exploded his heart!

Nima's, seeing that the Thunder is going to win, the Lakers are going to explode with three points, and seeing that the Lakers are going to win, Wei Shao explodes again.

Nima's, not so bullying!

Maybe in this world, only Coach D has a smile on his face, he is so calm, it seems that everything is as he expected.

But soon, extra time began.

The two teams are still inseparable.

The game was played to the last point.

With six seconds left in the game, the Thunder possessed the ball, and the Lakers and Thunder were tied at 118-118.

"Prepare for the second overtime!"

Aunt Jenny, who is the head teaching assistant, is sighing.

And Du Kang did not speak, but he did not object.

The simulated result of this game is that in the second overtime, the Lakers will win big, and the Thunder will collapse in the second overtime!

"This time the Thunder team will kill the ball with less power and less defense."

After Du Kang finished speaking, all the Lakers players took the order.

Carter served, Wei Shao received the ball, and almost everyone in the Lakers turned to Wei Shao!

And right now!

There was an exclamation at the scene!

"Durant !!!"

Durant, who had just undergone surgery, appeared in Staples!!

Fans the audience saw it.

The players on the field, Wei Shao, all saw it!!

It won't be a career reimbursement!

It certainly won't be a career reimbursement!

“KD! This is for You!!! ”

Watching Wei Shao stand up to Antetokounmpo's defense, two steps outside the three-point line, and just like this, James in front of the TV was stupid!!

James felt like his heart was exploding!

And looking at the trajectory of this basketball thrown by Wei Shao, Du Kang on the sidelines was also shocked!

This trajectory!

Wrong!

At the same time, Durant, who had just appeared in the stands, had a smile on his haggard face.

Brush it up!

The sound of basketball brushing the net is so crisp!

121 to 118!

The Thunder beat the Lakers away!

He finished with 51 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists on 17-of-34 shooting, 2-of-5 three-pointers and 15-of-20 free throws, in addition to three steals.

Among them, in the fourth quarter and overtime, he scored 21 points, and the Thunder scored all 11 points in overtime.

“KD! This is for You!!! ”

The whole Staples is silent!

In everyone's ears, all of them were Wei Shao pouting and shouting at Durant!

Durant, who was laughing just now, cried.

And Du Kang, who was shocked just now, smiled.

Change your life against the sky!

It's not just him who reversed the fate of the system's results!

Wei Shao, tonight, I did it too!
