November 22nd, one day before the game against the Thunder.

Wang Jiexi stayed in the hotel with Kobe Bryant, Yao Ming and assistant coach Tom to play games all day yesterday. All three meals were served in the room.

However, although the few people played wildly, everyone still exercised restraint and went back to their rooms to rest before 9 o'clock in the evening.

Of course, Wang Jiexi did not take a rest early. Instead, he found the video recordings of the Thunder's recent games and studied their tactics.

Early this morning, Wang Jiexi and Tom got up and woke up everyone in the players' rooms one by one, and then took the bus to the arena for training together.

Arriving at the training arena, Wang Jiexi looked at the players warming up below and said, "During training later, we will simulate the tactics of playing against the Thunder tomorrow."

"As for the Thunder, it's actually very simple. They just let their star players hit the ball one after another, so Kobe will imitate Durant later. Don't use your breakthroughs. You should mainly focus on shooting to score, and use more pick-and-roll moves...

"

"Okay, everyone, let's get started now!"

...

November 23, Thunder home court at Ford Center Arena.

One of the league's famous devil's home stadiums, the famous city of noise. Today, because of the arrival of the league's favorite Lakers, the place is filled with people. The scene is endless white and blue, with a sea of ​​people, and there is also a huge noise.

Wang Jiexi frowned frequently.

Without him, it would be too noisy and harsh.

Moreover, early this morning, several newcomers in the team reported that they heard ghostly cries in the middle of the night, which scared them to death.

There is no doubt that these are good things done by fanatical fans.

Wang Jiexi rubbed his temples and glanced around at the fans wearing white and blue Thunder home jerseys in the stands. Suddenly, a male fan among them was holding a whiteboard with writing on it. He saw Wang Jiexi looking at him, provoking

Hold up a middle finger and wave the whiteboard held up.

It read: "Lakers, losers, you will be beaten to the pulp by the Thunder and crawl out of the Ford Center!"

When Wang Jiexi saw this, a sneer appeared on his lips.

"Ignorance, today I will show you how the Thunder were brutally beaten."

Wang Jiexi stood up and clapped his hands, looked at the starting five and said: "I have memorized the tactics of yesterday's training. You have all seen the appearance of these fans. To be honest, I am very angry, so I ask you to beat them today."

!!”

Kobe, Yao Ming, Curry and others nodded solemnly. They were also angered by the frequent provocations from Thunder fans last night and today, so everyone wanted them to shut up.

Several people came on the court at the referee's signal.

The voice of the on-site commentary also sounded.

"The game has begun. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. The starting lineup of the home Thunder team: Russell Westbrook, Thabo Sefolosha, Kevin Durant, Jeff Green,

Nenad Kostic.

Which Lakers starting lineup is Stephen Curry, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Chuck Hayes, and Yao Ming?"

"Both sides started jumping the ball, good ball! The Thunder won the first round of offensive ball."

"But the Lakers defended well in advance. Westbrook didn't have much chance. He had to wait for his teammates to arrive before he could play. Kevin started to run, went around the baseline, came out, received Westbrook's pass, and hit the ball.

The distance is not good! I was disturbed by Kobe!"

On the court, Kevin Durant struggled to get out of Artest's close defense and received a pass from Westbrook, but when he shot, he was interfered by Kobe Bryant who was assisting in defense.

"Bang!"

The ball bounced out from the side of the basket and was easily protected by Yao Ming, who was already in position. Yao Ming waited for the Thunder players to walk away before handing the ball to Curry.

Curry dribbled the ball slowly to the frontcourt. Facing Westbrook, Curry had no physical advantage at all. On the contrary, he suffered a bit in comparison in all aspects, so Curry never thought about hitting hard and lobbing the ball high.

Gave it to Yao Ming, one of the bosses inside.

Yao Ming faced Kostic, a center from Yugoslavia and Serbia who was 2.13 meters tall but had average physical fitness. He easily hit the ball from behind and scored with a hook.

The ball is transferred and the Thunder attack.

On the Thunder side, Westbrook is still organizing at the top of the arc, and then everyone else takes their positions. Durant starts running around the baseline on the left and right sides, and the teammates in the middle will use their bodies to help him pick and roll.

But facing the Lakers, who had prepared in advance and emphasized how to defend Durant in the locker room, Durant was very uncomfortable at the beginning of the game.

Even if he used the pick-and-roll with his teammates to get rid of Artest, who was making him uncomfortable, he would still be defended by other Lakers.

Moreover, the altitude of Yao Ming inside also makes him have some scruples. Facing other Lakers, he can rely on his physical talent to defeat him, but facing Yao Ming and Durant, he cannot rely on his talent to defeat him.

After Durant moved, Kobe stood in front of him again. Kobe stuck to him like a piece of candy, leaving him with almost no room to shoot. In desperation, he passed the ball back to Westbrook.

He looked at Westbrook and motioned for you to come on!

Westbrook happily held the ball, looked at the thin Curry in front of him and said: "Boy, I hope you won't be smashed!"

Curry kept a sullen face and said nothing, staring at Westbrook, as if if you have the guts, just do it.

Westbrook didn't say much nonsense, just dribbled the ball and rushed up. His short and lean body was like a small tank. Curry wanted to go up to defend, but was pushed away in an instant. Westbrook pushed away Curry and smiled,

Keep charging!
Chapter completed!
