On December 7, Thunder was the guest of Chicago and challenged Chicago Bulls.
Oladipo, with his Bulls, gave Thunder a head-on blow.
Odie made 16 of 27 shots from the field, scored 39 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists, leading the team to beat his old club.
At the same time, Zach LaVine made 10 of 17 shots and Three-Pointer made 5 of 7, scoring 28 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists.
Markkanen also scored 7 out of 13, and Three-Pointer scored 3 out of 5, getting 20 points and 11 rebounds.
The three giants Bulls worked together tacitly, and Touch was so popular that they finally defeated Thunder 124 to 117 and won the game.
Odie also successfully exploded the gold coins of his old club.
For Thunder, Chen Xi made 13 of 19 shots and scored 34 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
Davis made 10 of 17 shots and scored 26 points, 14 rebounds and 1 assist.
The dual-core performance is quite stable.
The problem lies with the role players.
Seth, Curry, Three-Pointer 5 scored 0 in the audience, Carter Three-Pointer 4 scored 1, Green Three-Pointer 4 scored 0.
In addition, Alexander made 3 of 12 shots from the field and only scored 11 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. On both ends of the offense and defense, Odie was thinly veiled, which gave the senior a hard lesson.
This also led to the defeat of Thunder.
"Hey! Chen, I told you before that I will win it back." Odie smiled and walked up to Chen Xi.
"Hey! It's just a game. We are Western Conference first, Bulls and now Eastern Conference, what's the rank?"
"But Western Conference first lost tonight."
"No one can never lose! Neither can Jordan. We just take a nap occasionally."
"Hahahahaha, I feel relieved when I see you are still so stubborn."
"..."
Chen Xi looked at Odie with a black line on his head. Did he teach him bad things?
Where did I go to Odie, a low-key, reserved, taciturn, silent but honest and capable Odie?!!
Regarding Chen Xi's doubts, Odie said that people will always grow.
There is an old saying in China: He who understands current affairs ×
There is an old Chinese saying that goes: Those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black.
No matter how introverted you are, if you stay with Chen Xi for a long time, you will go astray and grow crookedly.
"Victor, do you still remember what I told you last time?" Chen Xi did not forget the business.
"Last time? Are you telling me not to work too hard in the recent games? Pay attention to the risk of injury?" Odie thought for a while and looked at Chen Xi strangely.
"Yes, Bulls has a good record now. LaVine and Markkanen can both give you a lot of help. I think you need to adjust your tightness appropriately, and it is also necessary to lower your daily training intensity."
"But, is it necessary?"
"I think it is quite necessary. Overly heavy training can easily make the body too tight and easily increase the risk of injuries. Now during Regular season, the schedule is so tight, I think you should pay attention to it. We will train together again when Off-season comes."
"Okay, I'll take your advice."
Odie is non-committal, but I still appreciate Chen Xi's concern.
Chen Xi is more worried.
Odie has not been seriously injured so far, so he may not have taken it to heart, but he knows.
The properties of glass on Odie's body were fully exposed after several serious injuries.
These injuries directly destroyed the super defender in front of him who should have had unlimited future.
Whether as friends or as Fans, Chen Xi don't want this to happen.
But that was all he could say.
After all, he can't pinch Odie's neck and tell him, "Your kid will tear the tendon of his right knee this season and be reimbursed for the season, and then he will completely become a glass man from now on!"
Isn't that crazy?...
"How about... next time I call Bulls, I can call Odie directly and put him on the injured list?"
A dangerous idea gradually appeared in Chen's mind.
Before you retire for the season, I will help you retire for the season!!
In short, Chen Xi has already said what needs to be said. Next, it depends on whether Odie pays attention to it, and whether the world changed by Chen will continue to follow the original direction.
Probably not~~After all, Thunder has already won the championship~~
Chen Xi touched his chin and stood in the locker room thinking.
Odie was injured at Pacers, but he is now at Bulls.
Besides, Bulls's current Head Coach is not Thibodeau, so it shouldn't become the second Rose...
After the match with Bulls, Thunder Team was able to fly back to Oklahoma City briefly.
The next game will be at home against Jazz.
First Odie, then Mitchell.
This schedule allowed Chen Xi to meet two good friends in a row.
On the evening of December 10th.
Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Chen Xi shook hands and hugged Donovan Mitchell before the game.
"Are you going to be away from home next time?"
"Back-to-Back will fight Rockets tomorrow."
"Well, I originally planned to invite you to my house as a guest."
"To put it nicely, I haven't seen you think about me all summer?"
Chen began to change the topic abruptly.
The game officially started with the whistle of Referee.
Thunder rarely lost the opening jump ball.
Gobert helped Jazz win the first offensive ball.
Rubio held the ball and advanced to Frontcourt. High Wing engaged Pick-and-Roll with Mitchell, allowing Thunder to expose Alexander in front of Mitchell.
When Westbrook is not on the court, the defensive strength of Thunder's pg position is indeed a weak link.
The Alexander of the Rookie Game season is light in weight and poor in Contact. It really has nothing to do with the evaluation of good defense.
After Mitchell finished covering Rubio, he took two steps back to the right and then received the ball, Isolation Alexander.
Taking the first quick step, On the Move Contact used his body to resist Alexander's body.
After entering the Three-Pointer line, his feet suddenly exerted force again, and his shoulders pushed forward, completely pushing Alexander away, and then Mid-range Shot was released smoothly.
Basketball silk slides into the net.
Jazz team took the lead and scored two points.
Thunder attack.
Alexander Top of the Key Hand-off plays the ball to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi held the ball and faced the double-teams of Mitchell and Rubio, and quickly jumped up and passed the ball.
Not far away, Alexander acted as a transfer station. After receiving the ball again, he quickly passed the ball and sent Basketball to the hands of Interior Davis.
Anthony Davis, low position turned back to Face-Up.
After observing the position of defender Favors, Shot Fake attracted attention, then took a step down from the ball, took off again, and Mid-range took action.
Basketball pops up.
AD Tonight's outside line Touch is still not very good.
After Gobert protected the Backcourt board, he immediately played the ball to Rubio.
