Chapter 249 The Thunder lost, but Kevin Durant didn't lose!(1/4)
Kevin Durant scored 40 points again.
41 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
The shooting percentage is still above 50%.
He really felt comfortable facing Artest!
And once he feels like shooting, it will be difficult for Li Wan to restrict him just now.
But there was no happiness on Kevin Durant's face.
Li Wan's scoring in this game is still not as good as his. Li Wan "only" scored 29 points, but he also sent out 10 rebounds and 13 assists. These two statistics are all behind Kevin Durant.
superior.
In addition, Li Wan also had 2 steals and 2 blocks in this game...
The defensive end data is also more comprehensive than that of Kevin Durant.
Looking at his data and thinking about the Thunder's current 0-3 deficit, Kevin Durant fell into deep thought.
From here we can also see how much impact tactical status has on a player!
In a team that suits him, he may be an absolute core player. The current Lewis is an example. Last season, he was not among the top 40 in the league, not even the top 50, but his tactical status in the Knicks is
Under Li Wan, he is on par with Yao, and his series of pick-and-roll plays with Li Wan can be called "the three most unsolvable systems in the NBA";
But if he is not in a team that suits him, even if he averaged 12 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in 24 minutes per game last season, if he is traded again this season, none of the 29 teams in the league may be interested in him.
He is interested.
Think about their age, what kind of bicycles do they need?
On the New York Knicks side, Li Wan is certainly young, but what about the rest of the team?
Always the overall winner!
D'Antoni looked at Li Wan who was surrounded on the court and smiled happily.
Win!
Ibaka set a pick-and-roll screen for Kevin Durant without the ball at this time.
Because the "mad dog" disease may not be so crazy...
Win!
There were also huge cheers at the scene.
Was he demoted from his starting position?
Moreover, last year he was still the absolute core of the team, but this year he can't even become a main player...
us……
Mike Brown, who was next to him, suddenly called him and turned to look. D'Antoni was stunned. This guy had someone get two lit cigars at some point, and one of them fell out of his mouth.
He handed the other one to his hand with a stern look on his face.
After winning this defending championship trophy, Li Wan will have three championship trophies in his career.
With the promotion to the starting position in the finals, more scenes, and defense against Westbrook, Beverley completely became famous.
Accompanied by jokes, the league president arrived in Oklahoma early in the morning.
David Stern can even present the award in advance tonight.
The New York fan who sent this photo ten years later described it this way: You would never have imagined that this scene happened when the New York Knicks led the Thunder 3-0 in the Finals and the fourth game was about to begin!
However, it is really depressing to think about it.
In the West, the Clippers and the veteran Spurs, who swept the New York Knicks in the regular season, were originally strong opponents of the New York Knicks. As a result, the Thunder turned into the "Western Warriors" and gave them a try.
But he...
Only Ibaka from the other side rushed over.
Just like Derrick Rose in 2022~2023!
But...
Because he has Li Wan.
Looking at this familiar appearance, he must have practiced a lot in private, waiting for this moment of glory to lift Li Wan high and carry him to the center of the stage. At this time, the Knicks players and staff lifted the three of them from all directions.
Surrounded by people.
There may be only one Beverley of his age, and the ages of the others are not optimistic. If such a team doesn't win now, it really has no future.
In fact...
This Thunder team!
"This is the real 'talent monster'!" Bill Walton also lamented.
"King of New York!"
Thinking about it this way...
Then...
He is also a head coach. This guy is one of the top ten "thighs" in history. He has three thighs, one after another. He has worked hard for 7 years and just waited for Li Wan!
Fortunately, Li Wan's quality is strong enough...
When the Knicks bus appeared at Chesapeake Energy Field, the cheers rang out in the Fan Plaza made everyone in the bus, including Lee Wan, turn their heads and look out the window in surprise.
Courtside in front of the Thunder bench.
In the three games so far in the Finals, Ray Allen has averaged 47.8% from three-point range.
…
2-5!
If it weren't for Artest's elbow and LeBron James' state, the New York Knicks wouldn't have been able to get through the Eastern Conference finals 4-0 so easily.
Let’s talk about the original 2012 finals again.
These words earned him the label of "cautious".
But now, he may only be one of the top ten goalkeepers in history...
Li Wan's situation will probably be similar when he arrives, after all...
His crazy appearance once made some experts worried about his mental state, and some people doubted whether this kid was bitten by a dog when he was a child and had not been vaccinated against rabies.
Compared to Thunder fans, New York fans are more like the losing side...
Kevin Durant's core strength is not bad, but his confrontation ability is still not outstanding among the forwards. Li Wan can't hold off LeBron James, but he can still have the upper hand against Kevin Durant.
.
Perkins chose "looking at the sky".
The arena security guard was so frightened that he took out his walkie-talkie:
However, if Li Wan really wins this year's championship, this public opinion will definitely change...
"Macho Man Crying" made Kevin Durant next to him look askance.
At 7 minutes and 45 seconds of the fourth quarter, when Brooks took off all the "Four Thunder Young Boys", D'Antoni also took off the main players, and then put on the court a group of players who had never played in the Finals, such as Turiaf.
Let them feel the atmosphere of the finals.
Li Wan was not panicked...
Smoke this big cigar of victory!
The reporter nearby recorded this scene.
Here you go, why can’t you help but fight?
Seeing these photos makes New York fans even more emo.
Kevin Durant tried to regain his right to speak, but Li Wan had just tasted his depth. After discovering this guy's "magic success", he didn't give him a 1v1 chance at all. As long as he had the idea of wanting to play singles, Li Wan
Wan Bian will immediately call his good brothers and accompany him to "lehehehe" together.
Regarding Li Wan's defense, one thing he now knows very well is that he must get rid of it quickly. The faster he can score, the faster he can score. Once he is entangled by Li Wan, it will be difficult to score again in this round.
Artest lost his starting position, but he still had it. That elbow cost him all his luck.
As soon as the game started, the Thunder once again showed their immature side.
Immediately after the game ended, Tyson Chandler and Kwame Brown quickly formed a "human sedan".
You said you guys from New York are too much of a bully!
It can be seen from the expressions of everyone in the Knicks that they still regard the Thunder as a tough nut to crack. He is very satisfied with this. His Chinese teacher told him:
When a lion fights a rabbit, it still takes all your strength!
Tonight, the New York Knicks' starting lineup has adjusted back to the lineup that most restrained the Thunder: Beverley at No. 1, Ray Allen at No. 2, Li Wan at No. 3, and Rasheed Hua at No. 4.
