Chapter 336 The Battle of Dignity (6/10, Ask for a Monthly Ticket!)

Chapter 336 The Battle of Dignity (610, ask for a monthly ticket!)

He is really angry.

The last time the Spurs put the Thunder on the ground in the opener, he was already suffocating in that game.

But now in this game, it is no longer a matter of holding your breath or not.

I show my love to Scarlett, you turn around and shoot an advertisement of that scale with Scarlett?

And it's a shower gel ad!

It's not about women anymore, it's about dignity!

This is not at the same level as Tang Tian's trash talk at him back then!

So from the moment he saw that ad, he was already in a state of constant rage.

It wasn't enough to beat the Rockets in the last game, only the Spurs and Tang were beaten this time!

The Spurs don't need Tang Tian to face him? Then play until the match!

The Spurs' frontcourt offense did not score, and Durant continued to play Leonard in turn.

Leonard learned a lesson from the last ball, which didn't give Durant room to break through.

Although his speed is not as good as Tang Tian's, the threat of death entanglement is great under static conditions.

Durant was forced to stop the ball on the spot.

Westbrook wanted to come over to catch the ball after seeing it, but was waved back by Durant.

When Westbrook went back, Durant leaned back and directly chose a turnaround jumper.

The shooting method is very simple, and it was completely predicted by Leonard.

Leonard's jumping block blocked Durant's view.

"Shua!"

Durant's difficult shot still scored!

Durant scored 4 points in a row in the opening game, all of which were difficult shots. Like the last game, he fired with full firepower at the beginning of the game!

After more than five minutes into the game, Durant scored the Thunder's first 12 points with a sudden outside shot, helping the Thunder lead 12-6.

And more importantly, Leonard was directly beaten by him and ended up committing two fouls early!

Whether it's strength, status, or experience, Durant has blown up the second-year Leonard, although Leonard has improved a lot compared to last season.

Popovich had no choice but to go to Green ahead of time, letting Tang Tian swing to the 3rd position to face Durant.

"Guys, come on, let's bet on the matchup between the two rivals!" In the commentary, Barkley had already started his daily life.

"I think Tang will do what he did in the opener. I will choose Tang." Kenny Smith bet on Tang Tian.

"No, no, Kenny, Durant's recent state is too scary, and his current state can ignore defense." O'Neal bet on Durant.

While they were talking, Duncan scored a goal for the Spurs in the frontcourt, and the score on the field became 8-12.

The difference of 4 points is not too much. With Leonard already committing two fouls, the next trend of the game depends on whether Tang Tian can restrain Durant.

Durant continued to hold the ball in the frontcourt.

Tang Tian was right in his evaluation of Durant during the Olympic Games. Although Durant has a sensitive personality, his ability to become a superstar does not depend solely on his physical talent.

Tang Tianfang was killed in the playoffs last year, and he practiced dribbling during the offseason.

Similarly, after being vomited by Tang Tian, ​​he also stepped up his physical training.

By the way, when playing against Tang Tian, ​​knowing that the pick-and-roll would not work, he played more with the ball to maximize his physical energy.

Being able to continuously evolve and upgrade is the reason why he has grown into the league's second small forward step by step.

With his back against Tang Tian, ​​after pretending to turn around, he leaned back and shot.

Having fought Tang Tian so many times, he knew that Tang Tian was quick to steal, so he opened the distance between the two sides before making the shot.

Tang Tian immediately saved the block, and the defensive oppression he can give now is higher than Leonard's!

"Shua!"

However, Durant still threw the ball into the basket under tremendous defensive pressure!

The 14th point in a single quarter!

The Spurs didn't score in the frontcourt offense. Looking back, Durant was holding the ball outside the three-point line, and he didn't rush to attack.

After the players pulled away, he put on a three-threat posture, and then suddenly made a three-pointer.

This came very suddenly.

But Tang Tian still judged it, and made a lightning strike.

"Snapped!"

Tang Tian caught the ball with his hand.

But failed to break the ball.

Durant used a lot of strength on the ball and successfully protected the ball.

However, after the ball was patted by Tang Tian, ​​his shooting rhythm was obviously disrupted.

One is very awkward, and even looks a bit reluctant to make a shot.

But Durant still threw the ball out.

The ball traced a spinning parabola in the air.

"Shua!"

Go in with three points!

"Kevin~~ Durant!"

Accompanied by the live DJ's long-pitched shouts, the Pisacek Energy Arena was in a state of boiling.

Durant, unstoppable tonight!

"What did I say, Durant is ignoring the state of defense tonight, no matter who is on the opposite side!" O'Neal said loudly.

In his words, he also saw Kobe like that in the Lakers back then, so he has such great confidence.

"It seems that women are the most exciting thing." Barkley said with a smile.

"This is a battle of dignity that he must win." Smith also nodded, it seems that he underestimated Durant before.

After Durant scored 5 points in a row, the Thunder had a 17-8 lead over the Spurs by 9 points.

Parker's top layup in the frontcourt was directly blocked by Ibaka.

"Let's.go! OKC!"

The fans shouted at the scene.

The Thunder are about to take off.

Popovich was on the sidelines at this time with his arms folded and his brows furrowed.

If even Tang Tian couldn't restrain him, then Durant really had no solution tonight.

Playing at this pace, the Thunder will be able to establish at least a double-digit lead at halftime.

The game will be difficult to play, and losing this focus battle will have a big blow to the Spurs' self-confidence.

One round, another round if Tang Tian couldn't defend himself.

Then he can only call a timeout, and then arrange double-team tactics.

Durant's passing is not strong, which is the only point he can take advantage of tonight.

Durant fell to the frontcourt, ready to continue to play Tang Tian with the ball.

But as soon as he got into position, Tang Tian fought with his upper body in various ways, and always half-circled forward to his receiving side, constantly putting pressure on him.

He has absolute confidence in his current touch, but he can't catch the ball.

Even if he ran towards Westbrook, Tang Tian completely strangled his receiving angle.

Tang Tian is defending like a mad dog right now.

Durant failed to receive the ball this round, Westbrook's breakthrough was blocked by Duncan, and the Thunder's offensive momentum was finally contained.

Popovich breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then retreated to the bench to sit down.

When he sat down, his frown relaxed, and he shook his head with a smile.

How could he underestimate Tang Tian!

Parker scored a goal for the Spurs in the frontcourt. Looking back, Tang Tian still defended Durant like a mad dog.

He's gone all out!

If he loses such a much-anticipated duel, in the eyes of many fans, he is just a weak person who relies on the outside.

So, this is the battle of Durant's dignity, and it's also his!
