Vol 3 Chapter 405: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers

, Such a score placed ten years ago, can not afford to splash. It's really rare now that it is 100　 at every turn. What's more, this is not a game between the Spurs and the Celtics!
　　 There is no doubt that the Rockets' offense is at the top of the league. The incomplete Thunder can allow them to hand over the lowest points in the league this season, which is inseparable from the downturn of the Rockets players, but it can still be seen how strong the Thunder's defense is. Of course, the Thunder have always been the league's top defensive team. Since last year, their defense has dominated the league. Until now, the Thunder still ranks first in the league with a defensive efficiency of 987, and it is the only team that has not broken the 100. Their rebounds, steals, and blocked shots are all in the top ten in the league. Among them, the steal data is the most prominent, a lot higher than the second-ranked team.
　　In the Thunder, almost all players have a very good sense of defense. The athletic ability of the players is very good throughout the league, and players in all positions are basically superior in size. This makes them extremely capable of blocking in the basket or in the process of opponent breakthrough. In the game, players are very active in double-teams and steals when they are involved in defense. Of the five players, none is not a master stealer! Even the tall and magnificent Adams has an average of 15 steals per game, and is known as the most capable center in active service. This is why they are now averaging 137 steals per game.
　　 It is no exaggeration to say that these Thunder players, especially the players, no matter which one loses the ability to score, relying on defense, can find a decent job in the league. Robertson is the best example! He averaged 76 points per season and is still considered an indispensable part of the Thunder's championship. In addition to Robertson, Adams at the basket and Paul George at the forward are all vital parts of the Thunder's overall defensive system.
　　Using Oladipo and Sabonis to trade Paul George for Paul George is definitely the best signing in Thunder history. Paul George's individual defensive ability is definitely the top level in the league. In the game, Paul George was very active and did an excellent job of everything on the defensive end. Steals, jamming passes, rebounds, blocks... even more aggressive than offensive. So far, Paul George has averaged 32 steals and 15 blocks per game. The latter is better than most inside players, and the former leads the league. With this data, it is difficult for the entire league to find a few players who can do better.
　　 Paul George’s defense is visible to everyone. Adams' defense is a bit low-key. But being low-key does not mean it is not strong! As the most well-positioned center forward in this league, he can always use his abilities to create more possibilities for his teammates. This can be reflected on both the offensive and defensive ends. He is a master of pick-and-roll tactics, and he is also a master of pick-and-roll prevention. He can always keep an eye on the opponent's ball holder for the first time and restrict the opponent from passing the ball. This season he averaged 108 rebounds per game, of which 52 offensive rebounds! Ranked second in the league. He averaged 15 steals and 18 blocks per game, all ranked in the top 20 in the league. There is no doubt that Adams is enough to be called the top center in the league.
　　 Westbrook and Anlow also have strong defensive abilities. Although they are not top-notch, they do not suffer from any guard in this league. Both are good at steals, but one likes to take risks, and the other likes to bully more.
　　 In addition to these few, Grant on the bench has grown a lot in the past two years with the Thunder. This season, he averaged 12 steals and 1 block per game on the defensive end. It is not easy for a substitute player. Once entered, this data will not be worse than Adams. Noel, Ferguson and this year's rookie Diallo, although the offense is slightly rough, but the defense is very positive and excellent. Therefore, these players are more favored by Donovan and get more opportunities.
　　 It can be said that the Thunder have always put defensive ability in a very important position when improving their lineup step by step. Although the Thunder's offense has become stronger and stronger in the past two years, the defense has not fallen.
　　 On the 10th, the Thunder suffered their second defeat of the season. The person who ended their six-game winning streak was a rookie from Slovenia and an "old man" from Puerto Rico.
　　 The Lone Rangers don’t have much ideas this season. The most important thing for them is to let this year’s show show Luka Doncic quickly get rid of the habit of playing in the European League and adapt to the NBA. However, after more than a dozen games have passed, people discovered that this guy's immaturity is limited to the number that represents his age. His playing style is as stable as an old dog. Especially on the offensive end, passing and scoring are excellent.
　　Perhaps the continuous back-to-back matches really made the players very tired~EbookFREE.me~ Therefore, the Thunder played very hard as soon as they came. Including Anluo and Paul George, they are not in good shape. Under such circumstances, they "disarmed and surrendered" early.
　　 The lineup is under the strong support of Anluo and Paul George, and it can be considered a back and forth. But in the second quarter, when they came off the bench, the Thunder were beaten. Barea, who has entered the "old age" of his career, broke out. He won and won on the offensive end, breaking through the basket, falling back jumpers, doing three-pointers, drifting three-pointers... Under his leadership, Collebel and Finney Smith hit three-pointers one after another, and Matthews also twice. With a three-pointer, the Lone Ranger set off a wave of 32:7 offensive frenzy in the middle of this section, opening the gap in one fell swoop.
After 　　, although the Thunder did not give up. An Luo led the team to a 12-0 attack wave in the third quarter, closing the point difference to 10 points. However, Doncic stepped up to help the Lone Ranger stabilize the situation. He faced Paul George's defense without the slightest fear, and he went to the basket to achieve two plus one, which was quite strong. In fact, in this game, Doncic didn't feel good. But he knows how to help the team.
　　 Looking at this rookie one year younger than himself, An Luo had to admit that some people were born to play basketball. And some people desperately make themselves stronger, but they are not even better than a rookie.
　　In the end, the Thunder lost to the Lone Ranger in Dallas. Although Anluo and Paul George both scored 20　 points, they still couldn't hold the opponent's 7-man double. Luka Doncic delivered 28 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. His almighty performance allowed everyone to see the rise of Dallas.
