Chapter 739 Too Easy, Very Difficult
The Mavericks attack.
Qin Yang dribbled the ball for halftime, Robertson was defending Qin Yang, and Kevin Durant was facing Sabonis Jr., both of which were good opportunities for misplacement.
Both Qin Yang and Durant have chances in singles.
But... the team is still in the process of training, singles means several things.
Brogdon made an easy screen, Qin Yang made a layup after breaking through, the basket attracted the defense, and then easily threw the ball into the air.
Durant made an air cut, took the ball and scored a dunk.
Can't help it at all.
Sabonis Jr. has good strength and got good data in the preseason, so he got the chance to start.He can shoot, he can rebound, he can pass, he's a lesser version of... Jokic.
Even if it is the real Jokic, he will be blown up against Kevin Durant, let alone a weakened version.
Durant made an air cut directly, and Sabonis Jr. couldn't keep up at all.
That's the absolute difference.
After the dunk, Durant didn't celebrate, but the scene was booed.
Qin Yang shook his head slightly when he heard the hiss, but didn't say anything.Durant didn't say a word, and the game continued.
The Thunder attack.
Adams made a screen. After the screen, Qin Yang assisted in the defense. Westbrook did not pass to Robertson. Instead, he stepped back and shot outside the three-point line after seeing Qin Yang.
Bang!
Basketball hits the iron, Nurkic gets the rebound.
The Mavericks attack.
Durant stepped forward to cover, Qin Yang passed the ball directly after breaking through, Durant took the ball, went straight to the layup, and then passed the ball to Qin Yang, the two passed consecutively, Qin Yang easily put the ball under the basket and scored.
Both Qin Yang and Durant have their own buffs to attract defense!
The two attacked together, and the Thunder were completely stunned.
Who to defend?this is a problem.
The Thunder attacked, Westbrook had a bad offense, passed to Sabonis Jr., and Sabonis Jr. made a mid-range shot and hit the iron under Durant's defense.
Many people say that LeBron James has the best defense among NBA superstars. In fact, Qin Yang and Kevin Durant have stronger defenses.
This ball, Durant's interference is in place.
Qin Yang stepped forward to grab the rebound directly.
Nurkic did a very good job in the post. Qin Yang picked up the rebound.
After getting the ball, Qin Yang didn't hesitate and made a long pass. When Durant saw that Qin Yang was going to get the rebound, he went straight to the fast break.
Durant took a big stride and was unguarded at halftime.
After receiving the pass, Durant made a three-step layup and scored easily.
The game has just started, and the Mavericks' lead is very obvious.
This is impossible.
The gap is too big.
The Thunder's weak lineup can only let Sabonis Jr. start, while the Mavericks are strong, with Seth Curry, PJ Tucker, James Ennis, and Nowitzki all sitting off the court.
Looking at the lineup, you know that the Mavericks won without any suspense.
Eight minutes into the first quarter, the Mavericks led by 8 points.
When the Thunder called a timeout, the Mavericks also replaced Qin Yang, and Gobert was also replaced.
Gobert no longer needs to go through long-term game training. After three seasons, the regular playoffs and the finals, Gobert has grown up completely.
It's time for a role player in such a game of dishonesty.
McKee got his chance.
The point guard is Livingston.
Mavericks tactics are still no major changes.
Livingston misplaced Westbrook in singles and hit two goals with three back shots. McGee blocked the basket and directly blocked Sabonis' layup.
At the end of the first quarter, the point difference was 16 points.
This game is over.
Westbrook had a dark face when he left the court.
In the first quarter, Westbrook scored 9 of 3 and his efficiency was very low. Although he had 3 rebounds and 2 assists, it was not a good thing.
The Thunder's possession of the ball is in the hands of Westbrook, and others can't play at all.
This season, the Thunder are doomed to tragedy.
Three minutes into the second quarter, Durant was off the court. The point difference was too big, and it was boring to play on the court. At this time, it is better to let the role players play.
The Mavericks have a super-strong roster this season, and as a result... there is too much competition for role players.
Players like Corey Brewer who have performed well in the playoffs can only play as substitutes among the substitutes.Seth Curry is too weak defensively and can only play in garbage time.
Others James Ennis, PJ Tucker, Livingston, Brogdon, Rodney Hood can only compete for other playing time.
so cruel.
The role players didn't dare to fight indiscriminately.
The defensive end is very dedicated, and the offensive end plays honestly.
In case of a big mistake, the playing time will be shorter and shorter.
In this way, the Mavericks performed very well off the bench.
Although JaVale McGee once again staged dunks and dunks, which made people smile, the Mavericks have been leading, even if Westbrook started to explode in the second and third quarters, and the data was sloppy.
In the third quarter, Qin Yang and Durant played for 8 minutes before leaving.
全场比赛，秦阳8中5，罚球2中2，拿到15分3助攻2篮板的数据。杜兰特9中5，拿到14分2助攻4篮板的数据。
The playing time of the two is too short, and there is little room for them to play.
On the contrary, Westbrook scored 34 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists in this game.Almost achieved a large triple-double, looking at the data is simply scary.
But in fact, Westbrook has been lagging behind and never wanted to lead.
Especially in the end, in order to collect assists, facing the empty blue, he gave the ball to Robertson, and Robertson shot the iron with a bewildered expression.
Is this what the core is supposed to do when it's lagging?
Especially during garbage time, Westbrook still played, it was crazy.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Mavericks had a clear lead, playing like this would not be tacit at all, and it would be disgusting.
In the post-match press conference, Westbrook expressed his dissatisfaction:
"The team still needs to improve. We will not admit defeat. Even if we cannot win, we will persist until the end. This is an unavoidable battle!"
A real man, a real Westbrook.
I almost believed it!
Kevin Durant didn't taunt his former teammates, but just said the words after the breakup very plainly: "I have left good memories in the Thunder, and I like it here, but I can only choose to leave. I hope that when I come back, I will not receive boos."
When Qin Yang was interviewed, he expressed his hatred very flatly:
"I don't feel any difference. I hope other teams can bring us some surprises. Otherwise, if every game is like this, I may average less than 20 points per game this season, which is very sad."
As soon as Qin Yang's words came out, some people were dissatisfied.
"Bruce Chin lacks respect for opponents."
"Arrogance!"
"It's just getting arrogant from the first game of the regular season."
Of course, some media supported Qin Yang's opinion.
