NBA: The King of Basketball, the more haters I have, the stronger I become!

May 11, US time

Ford Center, Oklahoma!

The stadium, which can hold more than 20,000 fans, is packed to capacity today!

"Fans all over the world are looking forward to today's game!"

Smith, from the TNT commentary booth, began to warm up the audience for the game: "Today, we will see a preview of the Western Conference Finals for the next few years!"

"Today is definitely the battle for the future of the league!"

Charles Barkley, standing nearby, also raised his voice: "Look at how many excellent young players there are on the sidelines!"

"Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Jeff Green, Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Kevin Love, and Ye Chu!"

"They represent the future of the league!"

Just as Barkley said.

The game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers needs no further introduction.

Just by looking at the group of young lovers standing on the field, one can understand why this match is receiving so much attention!

China, far across the ocean

CCTV started broadcasting the match live right on time.

With commentators like Yu Jia, Zhang Weiping, and the relatively inexperienced Yang Yi, the commentary team clearly demonstrates the importance CCTV places on this match today.

It's not just American fans and Chinese fans who are paying attention to this game.

Inside Davidson College.

Head coach Bob left Gordon Hayward and Paul George on the team.

The three of them watched the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Los Angeles Clippers game together.

"Ye, you've scored 40+ points in two consecutive games. I wonder how you'll do today?"

Paul George glanced at Hayward beside him: "Do you think he can maintain his offensive output today?"

I think he can do it!

Without a second thought, Hayward said directly, "In my world, Ye Chu is my Michael Jordan. His limit is definitely not just 40+!"

As Ye Chu's most loyal fan, Hayward is absolutely certain that:

Even if Ye Chu maintains this form until the end of the season, it will not be his best form!

Los Angeles, Staples Center

The team's head coach, Zen Master, also organized the entire team to watch the game.

The Los Angeles Clippers, with Ye Chu and Stephen Curry, are very likely to become the Lakers' number one rival in the West in the next few years!

In the Zen Master's view, it is very necessary to pay attention to this future opponent in advance.

Lakers star Kobe Bryant also paid close attention to Ye Chu's performance.

After all, he could very well replace me and become the new "King of Los Angeles"!

Cleveland, Quicken Loans Arena

LeBron James was also in the team's locker room watching the game, which was broadcast live across the entire Michelin meter.

"LeBron, didn't you say you wouldn't care about Ye Chu?"

Jamison, who had entered unnoticed, sat down next to James: "I didn't expect you to be secretly watching from here!"

"I was just browsing!"

James is very stubborn.

As his best support, Jamison knew very well that James was the type who would say no but his actions spoke louder than words.

Of course, the author doesn't mean anything by it here.

As for your association with certain parties, that has nothing to do with the author!

Our executive vice president, the king of football, cares a lot about outside opinions.

When he was compared to Ye Chu by the media, James' competitive spirit was unusually aroused.

He will definitely care a lot about Ye Chu's performance.

It's not just these superstars.

Inside the NBA Commissioner's office in New York.

Then-commissioner David Stern was also watching the game.

Kobe Bryant is getting older.

LeBron James has never been able to leave the Eastern Conference and lift his first championship trophy.

The league needs a fresh face.

The 09 class of many rising stars undoubtedly constitutes the best candidate list.

Ye Chu has China behind him, and his performance in the first few games of his professional career was extremely explosive.

Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden formed the "Thunder Big Three".

Who will be the next Top 1 in the league?

This match might just provide the answer!

The scene shifts back to Oklahoma, to the Ford Center's rugged pipes.

Amidst great anticipation, both teams finished warming up, and the starting lineups of both teams quickly took to the field!

The Los Angeles Clippers' starting lineup remains unchanged:

Curry and Iguodala partnered in the team's backcourt.

The forward positions are filled by Yip Cho and Kevin Love.

Kaman anchors the team's interior defense!

The Oklahoma City Thunder's starting lineup is:

Westbrook + Sefolosha + Durant + Jeff Bezos + Ibaka!

When the entire Thunder team took to the court, Westbrook sprinted across the half-court with an imposing presence, roaring loudly at the fans in the arena.

He gestured for the cheers from the fans in the stadium to be louder.

"Russell Westbrook is coming on strong!"

Seeing Westbrook's passionate roar, Curry's heart pounded: "Looks like today is going to be another tough battle!"

Ye Chu nodded upon hearing Stephen Curry's words.

Westbrook's passion is an art that has long been lost in this league.

His passion always inspires the fans and his teammates at the stadium!

"Beep!"

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

Both center forwards stood on the center line, and the referee threw the ball high into the air.

Serge Ibaka, the toughest man in the league, stepped up to Kaman and tipped the ball to Russell Westbrook first.

The Oklahoma City Thunder, playing at home, dominated possession on the first possession of the game.

"Oh!"

Westbrook received the ball in the backcourt and didn't waste any words. He accelerated across half-court and, facing Curry's defense, used a series of crossover steps to find an opening. He shook off his defender and drove into the paint. Facing the long arms of his former college teammate Kevin Love, he executed a reverse layup!

"Amazing speed comes from Russell Westbrook!"

"Stephen Curry's defensive footwork simply couldn't keep up, or rather, Russell's speed was just too fast!"

Less than eight seconds into the game, Westbrook scored a spectacular one-on-one basket, drawing praise from commentator Smith in the commentary booth.

The "red and blue supercar" of 08 refers to Westbrook and Rose.

Given Curry's physical attributes, it's understandable that Westbrook would leave him behind as easily as crossing the street.

That being said, Curry was still quite surprised when Westbrook so easily shook him off.

Is this the supercar from Ucla?

How can you combine human and ball movements, and even shift gears while starting?

This is fucking ridiculous!

After scoring this basket, Westbrook completely ignored Curry, his eyes fixed entirely on Ye Chu!

Offense and defense transition

Los Angeles Clippers offensive possession.

Curry brought the ball up the court and decisively passed it to Ye Chu.

Facing the defense of Swiss Army Knife Sefolosha, Ye Chu used a series of crossover dribbles to adjust his rhythm, then took a step forward and started, making large left and right changes of direction, completely disrupting the defender's footwork.

"Oh!"

Sefolosha was like a withered leaf in the wind. Ye Chu took the last step back and stood still outside the three-point line!

The Swiss Army knife guarding him slipped and fell to the ground.

"Wuhu~"

The next moment, Thunder fans at the Ford Center couldn't help but gasp.

"Sefroza collapsed to the ground, he was stunned by Ye Chu!"

"What dazzling moves! Every single one of Ye Chu's actions is full of deception!"

"A spectacular individual dribbling performance! Ye Chu gets a wide-open shot!! The three-pointer goes in cleanly!"

3: 2!

The Los Angeles Clippers have taken the lead in the score.

After scoring the goal, Ye Chu, while returning to defense, made a pistol-shaped head-tilt celebration gesture towards the fallen Sefolosha.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!
