Chapter 427 It's all the Thunder's fault!(1/2)
In the first game of the finals, the process did not start a talent showdown that was collapsed and broken as people had imagined in advance.
Both young teams showed their mature side.
Only one of the two strongest people stood up and scored in a critical moment, and that person was Durant.
Unfortunately, he met Banyani, who was so angry that he was red.
If someone can travel to the end of the first half, bet with the audience with his wealth and life: Banyani will score 40 points in the second half, and his shooting percentage will eventually reach 60%.
How will the audience react?
It is possible that he will take off his shoes and smash this idiot who is slandering and exaggerating.
It is possible to call the person directly and send him to the asylum for several days.
It is possible that he really agreed to this seemingly winning bet.
He made 0 of 11 shots in the first half and scored 0 points.
He made 13 of 15 shots in the second half, and scored 40 points with free throws.
Banyani took charge of the team's 80% of the team's scoring in the second half, and Stephenson won 13 assists without doing anything.
He was shocked to find that assists could be so easy.
Banyani's fight against the Thunder is a meme.
The entire Thunder team wanted to smash this meme, but tonight, they messed up.
"What is even more incredible than losing this game is Andrea Banyani's complete awakening."
"Yes, how did the Italian get the favor of the God of the Basketball in the second half when he missed 11 shots in the first half?"
"He should be cursed!"
Angus and McMillan are also puzzled by this.
Especially McMillan, who is a player, has played for more than ten years and has never seen a game of suppressing first and then rising, but this game...
The four words "suppress first and then rise" are not enough to describe them.
It should have been the first to surpass the ghost and then the god, which directly broke the criticism of the audience.
Compared with the MVP performance of Banyani's three armies, Li Xing was invisible in the second half.
He played for 15 minutes in the second half, with 21 points, 23 rebounds, 9 assists and 6 blocks.
This kind of data can even be described as "unusual" when it comes to him. Many of his contributions cannot be seen by the data.
He has only 6 blocks, one less than his average game in the regular season, but he interfered with his opponent's offense countless times, creating one counterattack after another.
The Raptors scored 18 points through counterattacks tonight, mostly due to the iron walls constructed by Li Xing in the penalty area.
It is precisely because of his existence that the Thunder cannot attack the Raptors' hinterland.
In the face of such a defense, the Thunder have to rely on a lot of difficult actions to hold the game.
Once you have no feel and continue to shoot with such high-intensity, what will happen? The answer is self-evident.
Durant is a historical scorer, his offense is well known to the world, and he also has the highest offensive efficiency in history.
It can be said that as long as the ball is handed to his hands, he is the most reassuring scorer.
However, no matter how efficient his offense is, if the ball is concentrated in one person's hands for a long time and he will attack with the ball for a long time, the physical exhaustion, the blow of will, and the physical confrontation are all factors that lead to the decline in efficiency.
With Li Xing at the basket, Durant had difficulty in breaking into the paint area.
He had to jump shots at high positions again and again. He was very high and difficult to block, but the Raptors were not helpless in his shots.
Covering is by no means the only defense.
From a professional perspective, as long as the opponent can defend against the iron, it can be considered a successful defense, and blocking is only one of the manifestations of successful defense.
Through this battle tonight, Li Xing can clearly feel the gap in each other's strength.
Obviously, the Heat are stronger than the Thunder.
They can beat the Heat and there will be no problem in defeating the Thunder.
Moreover, Durant now has a rating of 96, which is no different from last year. He is not as good as James.
However, he has a stronger offense than James and, once he starts the violent game mode like the latter, the game will also be deadlocked.
Banyani will be the focus of being watched tonight, and he enjoys it very much.
Li Xing stood on the sidelines and waited for Abraham.
"Rach, can you interview you?" Abraham asked.
Li Xing asked with a smile: "Don't you want to interview the genius who stunned everyone?"
"Because I know who the unsung hero standing behind him is, I have to interview the real MVP." Abraham said lightly.
"Excuse me."
Interview with Banyani was a better choice for Abraham.
Banyani and Li Xing have a very good relationship. Asking a few questions related to Li Xing can also help to whitewash Li.
Abraham thought so too until he saw Li standing alone on the court without anyone paying attention.
People who have always been surrounded and intercepted, but suddenly no one cares about them. There must be a gap in their hearts, right?
If Li Xing knew that Abraham was thinking about him so much, he would definitely increase her wages.
It’s a pity that the level of the Eye of All-Know is too low. He can only see through other people’s lies, but cannot see other people’s voices.
"Have the Thunder brought you trouble?"
The first question gave Li Xing a chance to fire.
How should I answer? If he follows his heart, he will definitely get angry, which will increase the difficulty of the next game.
But he can't do it if he wants him to compliment his opponent against his "conscience".
Li Xing hesitated for a few seconds before hesitating: "I'll say that, they caused trouble for Andrea. They made no contribution to him in the first half and did not get a single point."
Very Li Xing's answer.
Abraham was about to continue asking questions, but Li Xing added a sentence that could help boost the morale of the enemy without any need: "This is the only trouble they brought tonight. The rest are trivial matters. I can solve it with my hand raised."
Abraham always wondered if this coward was sent by the enemy?
After a good game, Banyani's perfect second-half performance almost defeated the Thunder's morale. Maybe they are doubting themselves, their lives, their games, their future. They will definitely think like this: God, what am I doing wrong? Why do you want that guy to explode?
They may also doubt the prospects of the finals, and some people may feel pessimistic.
After Li Xing said this, OK, he will do the head coach's work directly.
As long as the head coach of the Thunder team shows Li Xing's interview to the players, it will definitely work better than a million words of spiritual chicken soup.
Abraham became increasingly confused about what this man wanted to do.
"So, what do you think of your performance?"
Abraham was afraid of him and directly omitted several issues related to the Thunder.
She was wrong. She naively thought that Li Xing would not be able to hit the Thunder in this way.
She may not know that there is something in this world called gun fighting technique, she does not know that bullets can turn.
The same is true for trash talk. As long as the person who speaks is intent, trash talk can fly to others in a corner.
"I'm going to criticize the Thunder here..."
Abraham's mouth twitched, and he opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Xing, and she shook her head gently.
No!
NO!
"They just want to cause trouble for Andrea, why not cause trouble for me? Do they think they can win this game by limiting Andrea? Or do they think limiting Andrea is more important than winning or losing?"
Li Xing said with a relaxed look: "A discerning person can see that I have not done much tonight. If I divide my strength into tens, I will probably put in a little bit of strength tonight. Oh, it's really bad to feel overenergy, but who told me that my opponent is so bad?"
It turns out that this is the legendary mouth gun fighting technique.
Abraham suddenly regretted coming to interview him. Why did he be mean? How good is he going to interview Banyani? How happy he was talking to those reporters?
Isn't it good to just let this bastard be forgotten at the end of the world? Why do you have to interview him through the end of the world?
This guy is not worth it for him!
"You have five chances to ask questions." Li Xing reminded her.
Abraham felt that five chances were too many. It was enough to interview such a bad person and ask a question. Then he asked it was all his fault.
"Are you okay?"
Li Xing forced Abraham to continue asking questions, but his mouth was not over yet.
Having come to this point, Abraham had to continue asking.
"Lance Stephenson got 13 assists tonight. How did he do it?" Abraham asked as many questions as possible that he had nothing to do with the Thunder.
To be continued...
