NBA: No. 1 Forward

The outside is round and the inside is square. This is like an ancient Chinese copper coin with a square hole. This is also the standard for Lian Dao to be a man. He has his own bottom line to abide by, just like he never took the lead in making destructive actions.

The head coach of the Thunder, Scott Brooks, called a timeout at this time. He didn\'t dare to hesitate any longer. In just 3 minutes, the Thunder was hit by the Knicks with a 7:0 offensive climax.

Later, it made the Knicks play a showtime performance.

There are still 2 minutes before the end of the first quarter.

The score on the court was 13:28.

If you just look at the score, Thunder fans will think that the Thunder will score later, because although the Thunder\'s defense is not very good this season, the offense is definitely very sharp, and it is rare for the first quarter to end immediately. The top twenty phenomenon hasn\'t happened yet.

Now the Thunder are 15 points behind. To be honest, coach Scott Brooks\' timeout is still too late. He should have called a timeout when Westbrook made a pass error, but at that time he hesitated, and it was With this hesitation, the Knicks once again extended the point difference by two points with a dunk.

Coach Scott Brooks is also very angry now, but he can\'t lose his temper at Westbrook and Durant. After all, these two are the stars of the team, so he directly sprayed everyone, Nenad Krstic was "taken care of" by coach Scott Brooks, and he was sprayed the worst.

Here, Scott Brooks also made a decision to make a substitution. Durant and Westbrook cannot move on the court, and they are still needed to chase points.

So, I looked at James Harden who was sitting on the bench and looked at him eagerly, and asked James Harden to replace Thabo Sefolosha.

James Harden\'s heart is very happy now, but the management of his expressions is still in place. This guy can still cultivate if he is happy or angry, or it may be covered by his beard.

Just now off the court, he could only watch the big brother and the second brother face off against Lian Dao, which really made him feel itchy. Although he knew that Lian Dao was very strong, but as the same batch of players who entered the league, one was the No. 1 pick and the other was the top pick. Although James Harden said he didn\'t care, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He also secretly wanted to defeat Lian Dao in the game, to prove that his strength would never lose to anyone in the 2009 draft.

In addition to replacing James Harden, coach Scott Brooks also replaced Serge Ibaka. Ibaka, who was originally a power forward, was stuffed into the fifth position by the head coach.

He just can\'t stand Nenad Krstic\'s performance on the court.

After returning from the timeout, the Knicks also made a substitution. It was not Milicic who replaced David Lee at the fifth position, but Danilo Gallinari, but Danilo Gallinari was at the fourth position. The fifth position is Millsap.

Everyone in this lineup has the ability to shoot from the outside. D\'Antoni\'s purpose is obvious, to expand the score in one go.

The game is back on the field.

The Thunder came back this time with much smoother cooperation than before. James Harden received a pass from Westbrook. Durant made a screen for Harden, but Lian Dao interfered with his shot. He missed a three-pointer, but Durant Te grabbed an offensive rebound and made a tip-up.

15:28.

On the Knicks side, Lian Dao held the ball on the outside, called Wilson Chandler for a pick-and-roll, and then Lian Dao misplaced and singled James Harden. Gai, Lian Dao deliberately adjusted the arm of the auxiliary hand to face James Harden\'s palm, and then dialed the ball with his right hand for a three-pointer.

"Snapped!"

"hiss!"

"brush!"

"beep!"

3+1!

James Harden saw that this was about to capture the rhythm of Lian Dao\'s arm, so he also put a lot of effort into his hands, saying that he would not give Lian Dao a chance to hit 3+1.

Fortunately, Lian made the shot a few tenths of a second earlier, otherwise, with James Harden\'s slap, Lian Dao\'s ball could only be a thug foul.

This ball is to hit Harden with a 3+1. This is Harden\'s signature move in the future, but it was used first by Lian Dao.

Lian Dao glared at James Harden, Harden had an innocent expression on his face, as if the slap just now was not slapped by himself.

During the free throw, Lian Dao seemed to be influenced by James Harden just now, and the basketball went out of the basket.

"Damn it, this guy is really ruthless." Lian Dao saw a red handprint on his left arm and a faint pain in his arm.

Then, Westbrook\'s zombie jumper hit a three-pointer from the outside.

18:31.

However, the Knicks did not continue to fire. Lian Dao missed a three-pointer, and then Ibaka grabbed a rebound and gave it to Westbrook who was on the fast break.

Westbrook was like a crazy calf at this time, dribbling the ball and rushing towards the Knicks\' basket, kicking off the ground, and dunking with one hand.

20:31.

After landing, Westbrook tugged at his jersey, venting the depression accumulated in his heart.

Westbrook has never lacked passion in playing, but this guy is easy to get on.

No, Holiday sold a flaw, Westbrook immediately stepped forward to gamble and steal, and was directly wiped out by Holiday. Seeing Holiday who killed to the basket, Ibaka had no choice but to go up In front of the defense, Holiday immediately stuffed the ball to the open Millsap, and then Millsap completed a dunk on Ibaka\'s head.

Then, Durant received a pass from James Harden on the outside and made a shot from outside the three-point line.

The time left for the Knicks was only 4 seconds. Lian Dao missed a three-pointer after a quick serve, and the first quarter ended.

23:33.

The Knicks led by 10 points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Durant saw that Lian Dao did not rest, so he also chose to stay on the court.

For the Thunder, Durant, Harden, and Ibaka are all on the court, Westbrook is replaced by Eric Maynor, Jeff Green is replaced by Nick Collison, and Ibaka returns to No. 4 bit.

For the Knicks, Lian Dao and Danilo Gallinari are on the court, then Larry Hughes, Chris Duhon and Milicic replace Holiday, Chandler and Millsap play .

In the second quarter, Durant continued to lead the bench to chase points for the Thunder, but the Knicks did not give way too much, and Lian Dao continued to misplace Harden in singles.

In the second quarter, Lian Dao staged a foul-making teaching for James Harden, which is the classic law-making action of James Harden in later generations.

It\'s just that Harden hasn\'t activated his skill in his rookie season yet, but after this game, it\'s hard to say.

Maybe this guy saw Lian Dao use the foul-making action, so he might not be able to awaken his skills in advance.

Not to mention, Harden\'s fouls are really easy to use, plus James Harden\'s thugs in the first quarter Lian Dao used it on Harden six times in total, and the referee blew Harden Four fouls, although these six times only hit a 3+1, but Lian Dao\'s single-quarter free throws reached a new high.

Harden was also a little confused by Lian Dao\'s coquettish manipulation at this time. He didn\'t expect Lian Dao to have such a trick.

Scott Brooks put his hand on his forehead at this time, his face full of helplessness. He has encountered difficult players, but he has never encountered a rookie player as difficult as Lian Dao. This is a rookie, you and I said this is a rookie. A rookie is so proficient in making fouls. This guy can\'t be because the training room is full of basketball rules and regulations.

Although very helpless, Scott Brooks had to replace James Harden at this time, and James Harden was still useful in the second half of the game.

In fact, it is still a bit difficult to foul James Harden. If Harden is replaced by Westbrook, Westbrook can basically leave the field now. Dare to jump in.
