Please call me Ding Shenxian in the NBA

Chapter 232 229. The Referee Is Baba (Part [-])
Not only Miami fans feel depressed, but ordinary audiences also feel unsatisfied after a decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City is so boring.

Are the Heat really that weak?Of course not, they were just seized by the Mavericks and then desperately targeted.

With the big win, the Mavericks flew to Oklahoma to face the better record Thunder.

Unlike the Heat's Big Three, none of the Thunder's three juniors have terminated their rookie contracts. Durant's annual salary is only $600 million, and he still ranks third in the Thunder's annual salary list that year.

The top two are Nick Collison with 1300 million dollars and Nazr Mohammad with less than 700 million dollars.

The whole team is only worth more than 5000 million dollars, which shows how healthy the Thunder's salary is.

Starting with Durant, Kendrick Perkins, James Harden, Nate Robinson, Russell Westbrook, Sabo Sefolosha, Daequan Cook, Cole Aldridge, Serge Ibaka and others all lined up.

The NBA Whampoa Military Academy lives up to its reputation.

In this way, the youth army has played a record of 21 wins and 10 losses in the west. There is no doubt that they can grab a seat in the upper half.

The last time they played against the Mavericks, the Thunder's three juniors were unconvinced. This time, Durant vowed to lead the team to overthrow the league's No. [-] team.

The Thunder sent a regular lineup of center Nenad Kostic, power forward Jeff Green, small forward Kevin Durant, shooting guard Tsabo Sefrosha and point guard Russell Westbrook.

The Mavericks on the opposite side rested the super god Dirk Nowitzki in the last game.

The main reason is that Carlisle has an intuition that if Nowitzki is really allowed to play, there is a possibility of injury, and then the thrilling scene during the team training verified his intuition.

In the confrontation training before the game, Nowitzki tried an air cut layup, but he didn't stand firmly when he landed, and sat on the floor with his lower limbs exhausted.

Although not injured, Nowitzki was also moved into the watch list by Carlisle.

He used up too much playing the Heat in the last game, and playing the Thunder again after more than ten hours, Nowitzki's body couldn't stand it at all.

Kidd and Arenas are okay, in order to win, they can't rest.

So the Mavericks' starting lineup is center Tyson Chandler, power forward Sean Marion, small forward Ding Yan Yuhang, shooting guard Gilbert Arenas and point guard Jason Kidd.

Carlisle didn't let the UAE replace Nowitzki because he knew that Jeff Green was highly mobile and good at attacking with strength. The hacker's presence also had a depleting effect. Neither he nor the UAE could completely limit brother-in-law.

The Mavericks lineup is not bad in mobility, both offensive and defensive, but Nowitzki is missing. Thunder coach Scott Brooks dare not neglect at all.

Durant is one of the few small forwards in the league who can match up with Ding and have an advantage in height.

The problem is that Durant's physique is too thin. Compared with Xiaoding's size, Durant is just as malnourished.

So when the two stood together, Oklahoma City fans couldn't help worrying about Durant.

Xiao Ding's style of play is not violent, but it doesn't mean he won't use violence.

Durant chatted and laughed with Xiao Ding, "Ding, you really should come to Oklahoma to play, there are a bunch of good brothers who love basketball here."

"Isn't it a bunch of cats and dogs and you?"

After Xiao Ding finished speaking, Durant was silent for a while.

Then, Xiao Ding laughed first, "Just kidding."

Durant could only force a smile on his face, because he did think that the Thunder might be able to make a name for themselves in the future, but now it seems that they are really a bunch of cats and dogs.

Master Wei glared at Xiao Ding, he always felt that Xiao Ding was not joking.

And looking at Durant's expression when he was poked, he even had some doubts, does Adu think so now...

Of course, Master Wei would not be so stupid as to question Durant.

If you put this kind of thing in your heart, it will eventually become a heart disease, but if you have it, you have it, and if you don't, you don't have it.

Xiao Ding knows Durant very well, and Adu is a kind of guy who can't help but tease him. It's fun to tease him when he has nothing to do.

Players from both sides enter the field and stand in their positions.

Bald Crawford throws the basketball high into the air.

The boxing champion jumped up and handed the basketball to Kidd with ease, and Kidd dribbled the ball forward slowly.

The Thunder's group is full of energy. Maybe they have bad defensive habits, but there is nothing wrong with their attitude.

Especially Master West, who was unhappy in his heart, he spread his arms and lowered his body to mark Kidd, and from time to time he reached out to try to steal the ball.

Kidd has been paying attention to the movement of others without the ball. As long as there is a slight chance, he can make precise delivery.

For example, in this ball, Arenas used the screen to throw off Sefolosha, and he had an open shot at the free throw line.

Kidd immediately passed a freehand ball. Arenas got the ball comfortably, pulled it up and shot it. The basketball hit the backboard and bounced into the basket.

Sefolosha relied on defense to make a living, but after he was blocked by Xiaoding, he thought he was going to switch defenses with Durant. Durant would be wrong, and no one went to defend until Arenas shot.

Durant gave Sefolosha a helpless look.

The Swiss Army Knife is also very helpless. The ball should theoretically be blocked by Durant, and with his height, wingspan and moving speed, he can completely prevent the ball.

The blame is Durant's fault, but it is Sefolosha who is behind it.

Thunder coach Scott taught Sefolosha a lesson anyway, which is enough to prove that his control over the team is quite limited. Even Durant, who has only played in the NBA for 4 seasons, dare not offend.

There is one thing to say, there is nothing wrong with Durant's strength, except that he was a brush in the past few seasons, and now he is already working hard to defend.

Usually he would hardly make such a mistake, he just wanted to defend Xiao Ding too much.

Xiaoding used a scheming trick, and it seems that he succeeded.

Arenas gave Kidd a high-five to celebrate, and they dared not neglect to return to defense quickly.

Because Master Wei has already caught the ball and pushed it over, the speed is really fast.

He held the ball at the top of the arc and pretended to point the ball, but in fact he made a pass fake, exaggerated jumping adjustments, and immediately rushed to the basket at lightning speed.

At this time, Young Master Wei was fierce, and the only thing that could stop him when he charged up was his touch and God!

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
After reaching the basket in three steps, Master Wei soared into the air, violently smashing the basketball into the basket with one arm.

The boxing champion also jumped up to block the block, but his speed was almost too short, and he did not interfere with Master Wei. Master Wei also pressed his left hand on the boxing champion's shoulder, and then dunked the ball heavily into the basket!

The Oklahoma City fans screamed.

Strictly speaking, the ball was an offensive foul, but the bald Crawford didn't stop the game. He gestured for the ball to count, and then prepared to let the Mavericks serve the sideline.

The boxing champion asked unwillingly, why didn't he call him a foul?

Ordinary referees would definitely not talk to the boxing champion, but Crawford is not an ordinary referee. He said calmly, "If I don't brag, I didn't foul, understand?!"

The boxing champion sucked his teeth and said nothing, what else is there, the referee is daddy...
