Especially the star player Kevin Durant, when he is full of energy, he is simply an unstoppable scoring machine.

Back in the second quarter, the main lineups of both sides took a break, and the second lineup came on to fight. Kang Litli felt average today, shooting 1 of 3 from outside three-pointers, and only scored 3 points in five minutes.

The sixth man's condition greatly affected the performance of the bench lineup. In nearly half of the quarter, the Trail Blazers only scored 5 points.

On the other hand, the Thunder, led by veteran fisherman Fisher and crooked machine gun Kevin Martin, scored 11 points in the first half. When the main lineup came on the court, the score became 36:32, with the Trail Blazers trailing by 4 points.

.

After the main lineup returned, the two sides continued to fight.

Affected by the poor performance of the substitute lineup, the Trail Blazers' main lineup was suddenly in a downturn. Lillard made 1 of 4 shots and added a free throw, scoring 3 points; Batum and Matthews scored 4 points together, but Aldridge made a sweep.

out of a state of sluggishness and achieved high efficiency.

When entering this break, the Trail Blazers were at 19:28 in a single quarter and the total score was 46:53, temporarily falling behind.

Wang Zelin scored 2 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist in the second quarter, and accumulated 4 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block at halftime.

Seeing this, domestic basketball forums started talking a lot.

"What the hell is your Majesty doing? This state is too bad!"

"Alas, our expectations for Wang Zelin are still too high. He is a rookie after all, and it is normal for his condition to have ups and downs."

"Forget it, don't mention the rebounding title. Whether we can win this game is another matter."

This is the current situation of many passerby fans. As long as there is a slight setback, they will lose confidence in Wang Zelin.

In fact, this is good, there are still some ghosts and ghosts, and the rumors are even more unsightly.

Rose Garden Interpretation Platform.

"Uh, Reggie, the Chinese boy seems to be in poor scoring form today. Could it be last night..." Isaiah Thomas raised his eyebrows.

"Ahem, cough, cough. As far as I know, Wang is an excellent player with a good style, trains hard, and is serious about the game. He should not be so ridiculous."

As soon as Reggie Miller finished speaking, Isaiah Thomas deliberately looked in the direction of Scarlett Johansson: "Young people, it's understandable to be energetic."

"Don't worry, Isaiah!" Reggie Miller said: "There is still half time, I believe Wang will be able to adjust!"

Trail Blazers locker room.

"Brothers, don't be timid, let alone, have the courage to shoot decisively when you get the chance. I will protect the backboard!" Wang Zelin cheered in the locker room.

To be honest, he really doesn't want to see the Thunder team led by Durant right now. Sometimes the disputes among young people just happen out of the blue.

"Damien, your touch is average. Next, try to take shots in open spaces, focusing on efficiency. The rest of the time, just do a good job in defense and organization.

In the second half, others attacked around Batum and Wang Zelin, using internal and external tactics to overtake the score in the shortest time and then take away the Thunder in the fourth quarter!"

Seeing that the players' confidence was average, coach Terry Stotts stood up and said.

"Well, coach..." After seeing the coach looking at him, Wang Zelin said: "I think the task allocation can be changed a little."

"you say."

Terry Stotts nodded slightly.

After receiving the signal, he continued: "LaMarcus's state in the first half is currently the best for the team. I think it is more appropriate to give him the responsibility of inside offense, and I will be responsible for protecting the frame.

One thing to say is that it is difficult for Damien and Batum to limit the breakthroughs of Westbrook and Durant. If they are allowed to combine sudden shots all the time, it will be difficult for us to defeat the Thunder.

So I think Durant and Westbrook should be separated from their teammates and let the two of them keep beating. It's hard to say about Westbrook's physical strength, but I can guarantee that Durant's offensive efficiency will be better in the fourth quarter.

It’s definitely going to go down.”

Lillard and Batum didn't think anything about Wang Zelin's statement, because it was indeed true.

Actually, there is one thing Wang Zelin didn't say.

He has always been concerned about the competition for the rebounding title. If he really wants to focus on offense as the coach said, rebounding will be difficult to guarantee, so he wants to focus on defense.

Fortunately, Aldridge seems to have regained his previous touch tonight and is definitely capable of taking on offensive tasks.

…

During the half-time break, the heated discussion from the outside world continued.

This battle is of great significance to both teams. In addition to the various gimmicks exaggerated by the media before the game, there is also a secret competition between young people.

No one can escape the temptation of fame and fortune. The competition for the "strongest youth army" has been formed since the middle of the season, and now it has been amplified.

The timeout is over and the game is back!

Thunder offense.

Westbrook advanced to the top of the arc, and before Lillard came up to him, he suddenly moved to the left, set up a pick-and-roll with Ibaka, and after getting rid of Lillard, he immediately broke into the wing.

Aldridge immediately entered the left wing from the free throw line to cover the defense.

But Westbrook changed direction and accelerated past Aldridge, then changed gears again, and when Wang Zelin entered the paint area, he slammed the ball into the basket.

So fast!

Wang Zelin didn't even come to his senses, and Westbrook was already on the ground and back on defense.

I have to concentrate and concentrate again.

Looking back, Wang Zelin and Thabeet were struggling under the basket. The latter was far less powerful than Wang Zelin, but this guy was able to be selected at the second position. His static physical talent is definitely good enough. His height and wingspan can create a big impact in the three-second zone.

obstruction.

Batum broke into the penalty area for a layup, but Thabeet made an emergency stop and turned around to block it. Fortunately, Wang Zelin completed the dunk in time and got 2 points for the team.
