Thunder vs. Celtics.
Celtics, which shined in Playoffs last year, is making a comeback this year.
Coupled with the comebacks of Irving and Hayward, James's journey to the west.
In the eyes of Fans, this will be a season where Celtics is aiming for the championship.
But in fact, in the first three games, Celtics only achieved one win and two losses.
Because Irving's performance in the first two games after his comeback was not very good.
He may have to get used to having a lot of ball rights taken away by the Jays.
Evening, Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Thunder generals put on the blue and orange uniforms and continued to face the challengers at home. (To be honest, after reading the newspaper, the uniforms from previous years still look better)
In the opening jump ball, McGee easily won the ball.
Westbrook receives the ball and transports it to Frontcourt, waiting for Teammates to land.
Since Davis joined, Thunder's Transition Offense times have been significantly reduced, replaced by more Positional play attacks.
It's not that Brow can't play Fast Break, but it's not necessary.
Why waste your core physical energy in vain?
After all, Brow is a heavyweight Interior with a lot of injury history.
After Teammates was fully positioned, Westbrook also began to move.
After raising his hand to summon Pick-and-Roll from Grant, he quickly started to break through. Three steps stepped into Interior, Contact in the air, pulled the lever Layup, and held up Tatum. Help defense, sent the ball into Basket.
Turtle Turtle, who was in poor form in the previous two games, regained Touch after three days of adjustments.
Well, Layup Touch.
The first goal was scored easily.
Celtics attack.
After Irving slowly moved the ball to Frontcourt, Top of the Key waited for Teammates to move.
After Hayward came back, Tatum took the power forward position, directly facing Anthony·Davis. In this case, if there is no chance to seize Mismatch, it is better not to ask for a strong play.
After all, it's not like we didn't challenge Brow's low post defense last season...
I won't say it if it hurts morale. In short, in this game, let's give the ball to Offensive Efficiency, who is better Teammates...
Brown Move up for pick and roll, provided a cover for Irving.
Irving directly accelerated to break through and rushed to Free-Throw Line through cover.
Facing Chen Xi Help defense, Irving and Sam Good, after the misleading change, connect Side Step-Back's Fadeaway Jumper.
But Chen Xi reacted quickly and caught up immediately, jumping to block the shot.
Basketball flew out wiping Chen Xi's fingertips and landed on the front edge of Basket.
Short.
After McGee took off Rebound, Transfer ball was immediately in the hands of Westbrook.
Turtle Turtle immediately turned around and launched Fast Break.
Less fighting does not mean no fighting at all.
This kind of defensive counterattack Fast Break is still necessary.
Chen Xi, Westbrook double quickly.
There was wind under their feet, and their speed was so fast that when they ran to Frontcourt, it became a two-on-zero situation.
Westbrook reached the basket first and knocked the ball gently towards Rebound.
Chen Xi behind him jumped up high, caught the rebounding Basketball, and finished with a powerful one-handed chop.
His current jumping ability doesn't support him in completing beautiful fancy moves~~
However, the aerial connection from the two core players can still ignite the audience in the arena.
Even in the past two years, they've done it countless times.
But every time, there are still a large number of spectators who will still stand up and cheer for them.
Celtics Re-inbound pass, Irving continue to control the ball.
After arriving at Frontcourt, Pick-and-Roll was still looking for Brown, and then after moving Chen Xi in front of him, Irving played the ball back to Brown.
Jaylen·Brown singles out Westbrook.
After the continuous Crossover Dribble, he followed up with a swift first step and quickly started a breakthrough, grazing the side of Westbrook and rushing into the Three-Pointer line.
Then, with Westbrook and Physical Confrontation coming from the side, he made a Shot Fake and successfully shook it up.
After collecting the ball to avoid Westbrook in the air, he took off again and shot Mid-range.
Brow, who was assisting in defense, was blocked by Westbrook's body, and he could only watch as Brown took action safely.
Two points scored, 2 to 4.
A very smart shot, Turtle Turtle made a mistake.
Brown's growth rate is much slower than that of his classmates, but he has never stopped.
Chen Xi glanced at Brown who was slowly returning to his own half, then turned around to receive Basketball from McGee.
After transporting it to Frontcourt, I came to Brown.
"Are you ready to be blown away by me? Jaylen."
"You are the one, I will block every move you make."
There is an inevitable dispute between two young people.
Chen Xi lowered his focus and began to change his rhythm Dribble, trying to interfere with Brown's defensive focus.
But Brown is very calm and unmoved.
Seeing this, Chen Xi took the initiative, suddenly raised his center of gravity, and made a Drag Step to the right. Then he followed up with a quick Hesitation Dribble breakthrough and rushed past Brown.
Relying on the fast starting speed of the first step, Chen Xi smoothly entered Free-Throw Line, then followed the trend to the left Sideways Movement, and used Chase Defense stuck in the butt to Brown.
Then facing Tatum Help defense, pass the ball Bounce pass from Tutu's crotch.
Davis behind Tatum caught the ball and got up and dunked.
Beng!!!!
"Perfect timing!!! Damn!!! Very creative pass from Chris!!"
Brown looked at Chen Xi in surprise.
In the past, he was not very good at this kind of operation.
"Iu, not bad~~" Since my friend's name is also Jaylen, Chen Xi couldn't help but say a Chinese sentence.
"What?" Brown didn't understand.
"Hahahaha, I compliment you on how handsome you are." Chen said haha.
Although I didn't understand what it meant, Brown knew that it was definitely not a good thing.
After coming to Frontcourt again, Brown reached out for the ball without hesitation, wanting to Isolation Chen Xi again.
Irving, Irving gave it.
He didn't mind the competition among young people.
After all, he has done this before.
He was even crazier before.
Facing Chen Xi, Brown stopped testing and directly Hesitation Dribble broke through, taking two quick steps, but failed to directly break through Chen Xi's defense line.
Brown was a little surprised, but he didn't have time to think too much. He held Chen Xi's chest and rushed into the Three-Pointer line. Then he made a quick emergency stop and then started again.
Still didn't let go!
Brown shocked. jpg
Chen Xi sticks firmly to Brown's side without shaking at all.
Brown had no choice but to play the ball and look for the next opportunity.
There is no other way, if the ball is not released, Brow will come up.
