Chapter 448: Have You Ever Heard of Duncan II?

"Vegetables, just practice more! If you can't afford to lose, don't play! ”

When Durant raised his two hands like two crab pincers to say this to the camera, the reporters and the Thunder players laughed.

Durant looked at the smiles on the faces of the people around him, and felt extremely happy in his heart!

Li Kaiming, aren't you very good? Why do you start complaining about the referee now after losing a game? So you're complaining, too......

Although Durant was still conducting a post-game interview at this time, his heart had already flown to Li Kaiming's side not far away, and he wanted to see Li Kaiming's face when he lost, it must be very good-looking......

Durant and Wei Shao, who was sitting next to him, looked at each other and smiled, and the two of them had confident smiles on their faces that belonged to the winners.

Li Kaiming, this round of the series has just begun......

However, no matter how confident the Thunder team is, there is no way to stop the fans watching the game from making any noise, after all, the darkness of this game is blind and visible, and not all fans who like basketball and NbA like to watch this kind of game where the referee decides the winner.

Therefore, in the post-game interview, when the Wizards' complaint about the referee was made public on the Internet, it was immediately recognized by a large number of fans.

"In the finals I've watched, this ball is definitely black that can be ranked in the top five!"

"I feel like those three referees are wearing Thunder jerseys under their uniforms, and they made 46 free throws, obediently, 48 minutes of the game, and they played it for three hours, don't tell me that Thunder fans like to watch this style of game......"

"Is this kind of penalty really not going to be investigated? It's understandable to everyone that there is a home whistle, but what kind of game is played if it is biased to this kind of floor? It's better to go directly to the Thunder's home court and judge the Thunder to win. ”

There are righteous fans who speak up, and naturally there are Thunder fans and Li Kaiming's black fans who stand up to fight back, and even among this part of the fans, Li Kaiming's black fans still account for the vast majority, after all, after entering the league, Li Kaiming offended players with a lot of fans, James, Kobe......

So, before the series reached the fourth game, this round of the series finally hit the fan level, and the discussion about the finals became more and more hot, and the fans sprayed each other more and more intensely.

The Wizards, who are the protagonists, have never talked about related topics since the post-game complaints, as if the game is really over......

But some people understand that this game has not passed, and the effect it causes is only hidden deep under the surface of fluctuations, and the longer it hibernates, the stronger the outburst!

On June 19, the same Thunder home energy arena, home fans, wearing blue cheering short sleeves that symbolize the thunder, surrounded the central court in the energy arena, forming an endless sea of people, of course, followed by various noises and boos.

At the pre-game entrance ceremony, Durant still walked into the court with the "mVp" call of the whole court, with an excited smile on his face, waving to the surrounding Russian City fans, as if he could leave the O'Brien Cup here tonight and raise the championship flag of the season over the Energy Arena tomorrow......

Of course, Durant, who returns to his home court and beats his opponents, will also look at the away team's bench with mocking eyes in this kind of life's highlight moment, and he wants to see the discomfort on the face of the guy he hates so much......

Unfortunately, no, Li Kaiming and all the Wizards players were calm, and the boos and cheers in their ears seemed to be not in the same dimension as them.

Hehe, what's it for? Durant disdains it in his heart, I'll see if you can pretend when the game starts!

At nine o'clock in the evening, after everything was ready for the game, the referee checked the situation of the basketball and then took the ball to the center of the court.

The starters from both sides were already on either side of the halfway line, with Bradge and Perkins standing in the circle, ready to start the fourth opening ball battle.

Zhang Weiping in the broadcast area also symbolically said two opening sentences, "Audience friends, welcome back to the sports channel, what you are seeing now is the 2011-2012 Emerica Professional Basketball League Finals, the Washington Wizards vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder game, the two sides are ready to start jumping the ball, and the Wizards win!" ”

The ball was given to Hinrich, who dribbled across the half court, and this time to the surprise of Thunder head coach Brooks, the Wizards did not let Li Kaiming go up to block and dismantle as before, and then the others ran without the ball.

At the beginning of the game, Li Kaiming directly stuck the position with his back in the waist position, and then was ready to receive the ball, Hinrich passed the ball to Leonard at 45 degrees, who hit the ball to Li Kaiming.

After arriving at the home court, Ibaka's defense Li Kaiming has a lot more confidence, especially when the latter lays up, he can use all kinds of small actions in front of the referee, and these actions are often effective, such as the last game to make Li Kaiming's shooting rate drop to 50%.

Don't laugh at Ibaka, as a player whose level of co-defense is higher than that of individual defense, it is very good that he can reduce Li Kaiming's shooting rate to half, because Li Kaiming's overall shooting rate was above 60% before, and even his own coach said that he is a person with no offensive shortcomings at all.

Seeing Li Kaiming get the ball, Ibaka immediately began a strong physical confrontation, but the physical fitness of the person in front of him was obviously much stronger than him, in the face of Ibaka's small action pushing, Li Kaiming shook his shoulders, deceived the former's center of gravity, and then suddenly turned around, and at the same time supported the ball protector, and elbowed to Ibaka who was chasing over!

This elbow is not the kind of action that is open in the eyes of the referee, and when he turned around, Li Kaiming had already blocked the contact with Ibaka with his body, so even if the baseline referee was standing next to him, he couldn't see the specific situation at all.

Ibaka felt a hot pain in his ribs, and his body couldn't help but slow down, and Li Kaiming took advantage of this opportunity to rush directly to the basket, Perkins let go of Blatch to stop Li Kaiming, but Li Kaiming did not hesitate to throw the ball to the basket, and Blatch under the basket pulled the onion on the dry ground, and his hands were empty!

The Thunder team attacked, the ball was given to Wei Shao's hands, and he played at a high level in the energy arena in the last game, so Wei Shao was very excited in tonight's game, and he hesitated in the front court, and then accelerated past Hinrich, rushed to the basket, and faced the defense of Li Kaiming and Bradge, and actually came to a stop-up jump shot!

I have to say that Wei Shao's shooting action looks like there is a steel plate in his body, no wonder he is nicknamed "zombie jump shot".

But what is surprising is that Wei Shao's excitement can actually improve his shooting percentage, and the pull-up jump shot that came up actually hits.

The Wizards attacked, this time Li Kaiming still chose to start from the inside, he hadn't played inside for a long time, but before this game, Sanders set him the goal of being one person, one game, to leave an unforgettable memory for the players and coaches of the Thunder!

Ibaka, who defended Li Kaiming, obviously didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, the first attack was scored by Li Kaiming's easy pass, and he also suffered an elbow, he subconsciously thought that he was not serious at the beginning, as long as he was serious, the game would develop like the previous game.

Sometimes this is the case, there are always some people who are not at the level enough, lucky to stand on the cusp of development, and then make achievements, and the result is that they think they are capable, but they don't know that in that special situation, opportunity and luck are the main factors for success.

There is a celebrity who said very reasonably, standing on the tuyere, pigs can fly.

That was the case tonight for Serge Ibaka, who seemed to be really immersed in the success of the referee in the last game, believing that as long as he took the last game seriously, the victory would come as naturally as the last game......

Maybe it's not just Ibaka, it's the entire Thunder team that's thinking......

This time, Ibaka did defend more carefully than last time, and also prevented Li Kaiming from turning around on the bottom line, but Li Kaiming did not close the ball after turning around, so seeing that Ibaka blocked the defense line of the bottom line, Li Kaiming took his left foot as the axis, and turned around from the direction of the upper line again.

This time, Ibaka didn't react at all, and Li Kaiming's turn speed was very fast, and after turning around, he directly pulled up a backward jumper, and when Ibaka turned around to defend, Li Kaiming's shot had already been shot!

Swish!

After a crisp sound of brushing the net, the Wizards sounded the horn of revenge!

With the passage of time, Brooks' brows on the sidelines gradually wrinkled, because tonight's Li Kaiming is completely different from the previous style of play, tonight's Li Kaiming is a standard No. 4 position play, and it is also a traditional offensive No. 4 position, one board and one eye, inside card position, turning, attacking the basket or mid-range shooting.

At this time, whether it was the Thunder players or the fans watching the game, they suddenly remembered that when Li Kaiming first entered the league, he had a title called "Duncan II", but later Li Kaiming played more and more outside, and his playing style was not related to Duncan at all, and there were fewer and fewer talents mentioned.

When Li Kaiming picked up the traditional interior skills again, these people realized that the Wizards' No. 0 is not just a unicorn-like outside player, but also has no shortage of interior skills and dominance.

In Li Kaiming's words, brother just doesn't want to use it, it's not that he won't!

As far as the Thunder team is concerned, the two short insiders are still mobile, not good at top defense, and even less good at marking Li Kaiming, a player who blooms inside and outside, so after the end of the first quarter, Li Kaiming used the inside play style to score 14 points and 4 assists in a single quarter, leading the Wizards to a 31-26 lead over the Thunder by 5 points.

Of course, Brooks can bring the Thunder to the finals, in addition to the care of referee Barbie, there are still two brushes, after finding that his interior line could not prevent Li Kaiming, in the second quarter he began to strengthen the rotation of the interior defense, that is, let a few players on the outside come to help defend the card, especially when Li Kaiming just received the ball or dribbled, disrupting his rhythm.

This kind of defense did work wonders in the first two rounds, but it was quickly adapted by Li Kaiming, and then used his inside containment to start distributing the ball to the outside.

In the second quarter, as usual, Li Kaiming played with a five-outside lineup, and Li Kaiming's inside explosion in the first quarter compressed a very large space for the outside shooters, and Li Kaiming casually divided one of the empty seats.

This kind of ball is naturally a battle-hardened veteran like Lewis, and Thompson and others, who were not in good shape in the last game, also warmed up, and fired one after another outside the three-point line, which soon stretched the difference to double digits.

At the end of the first half, the Wizards led the Thunder by 12 points at 57-45, and Durant, who was smiling from ear to ear at the beginning, could no longer laugh at this time, and left the player tunnel with a black face.
