"Super Heavy Gun ( to find the latest chapter!
For the victory over the Raptors, Anluo these players are not particularly excited. They only fought each other in seven games a few months ago. The Raptors at that time were much better than this one! Although in the eyes of most people, the Thunder are different from the past, but they have never considered themselves weakened. In the eyes of Anluo and others, the Thunder are still the Thunder, and they are still the strongest contenders for the championship this season.
Therefore, An Luo did not reveal much in the post-match press conference. He and Westbrook are just like Donovan, very plain.
"The new season has just begun. Everyone is looking for their own form. We won this game, but it is undeniable that whether it is the opponent or ourselves, the state of the game is not ideal. We still have It’s a long way to go. Fortunately, the season has just begun and we still have time to adjust."
Perhaps the derby of the Los Angeles duo was too dazzling. After the first game day, the Lakers and Clippers were more discussed. For the Thunder and Raptors, everyone's attention is not particularly high. For this, An Luo felt nothing bad. A few years of professional life told him that those who follow you crazy are mostly people who criticize and scold you. The reason why Anlo likes Oklahoma fans is that whether the Thunder loses or wins, they will appear at the Chesapeake Energy Arena to cheer the Thunder players.
After a day off in Oklahoma, they will move to Salt Lake City to play against the Jazz.
The Jazz in the first two seasons have shown their potential. Their defense inherited the iron-blooded style of Salt Lake City, and Gobert, the inside gatekeeper, overpowered many powerful enemies to win the award for the best defensive player for two consecutive years. The new leader of the team, Mitchell, has also grown up during these two years of training. His style of play is strong and his scoring ability is at the top of the league. This season, they succeeded in getting the opponent's perimeter core Conley from the Grizzlies, and the team's paper strength has risen sharply. It is conceivable that with Conley such a defensive and scoring organizer, the Jazz will definitely do a big game in the new season.
Of course, in these two seasons, every time the Thunder meets the Jazz, the matchup between Anlo and Mitchell will become the focus of many fans. This season, the matchup between Paul George, who became the core of the Thunder's offense after Paul George's departure, and the more mature Jazz leader Mitchell, is even more exciting for fans.
It must be said that the thirteenth pick has formed a force that cannot be underestimated in this league. Starting from Zach LaVine in 2014, Devin Booker, Anlow, and Mitchell in the following years are all core players of a team. In this year’s NBA Draft, the Miami Heat chose another shooting guard in this pick-Taylor Hiro. Judging from the performance of the summer league and preseason, this teenager's performance is also very good, if Taylor Hiro can maintain that kind of performance and will definitely become a member of this team in the future.
An Luo is already familiar with the climate of Salt Lake City. But what I have to say is that such an away game is still very annoying. If they play a close match with each other in the game, the result of the game may not be favorable for the Thunder. Therefore, Donovan requires the players to use the strongest offense to quickly establish a certain advantage. He knows very well that once the game reaches the final decisive moment, the Jazz at home will be much stronger.
Unfortunately, the trend of the game often does not develop in the direction that you expect.
The Jazz playing at home exploded with great fighting power as soon as they came up. Bogdanovic scored 7 points and he led the team to a 12-5 lead. The Thunder's defense didn't have much problem, but this guy is accurate! Three rounds, three shots, are quite decisive, shoot with open hands and hit a shot. Of course, this benefits from the containment of Mitchell and Conley on the court. The Thunder's perimeter defensive attention is basically focused on these two men, and with Gobert on the inside, it is really difficult to limit a Bogdanovic with 100 shots.
However, the Thunder's counterattack soon began.
Westbrook played a flower job outside the three-point line, and after a Sam Gold swung Conley away, he quickly rushed into the penalty area. Gobert hurried to stop him, but gave Adams a chance to score. Westbrook made a false shot from a horseback archery and hung the ball from the opponent's head. Adams flew up and easily completed the dunk.
Subsequently, after Mitchell used his excellent speed to get rid of An Luo through the screen, Adams, who went up to the defense, used a drifting backward jumper to complete the first scoring of the new season. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
Seeing Mitchell scored, An Luo was naturally unwilling to lag behind. Especially when he found that Mitchell took a look at himself, he became even more unbearable! In the same quintile, who is weaker than whom?
As soon as Anlo passed the center line, he began to reach out for the ball. He was ready to face Mitchell Steel. Seeing An Luo's posture, Westbrook passed the ball in his hand without even thinking about it. After the basketball was in Anluo's hands, he stretched out his left hand and pushed forward twice. Generally speaking, when a player makes this action on the court, it means that he has to play singles!
The Thunder's players rushed forward, and the Jazz's defense did not surge as before. In many cases, players are still more willing to see such a scene without affecting the outcome of the game. Especially when the star players of both sides face off, everyone will not refuse to be a spectator on the court.
After receiving the ball, An Luo slammed the ball into a standard three-threat pose. Mitchell stood half a meter in front of An Luo, bent over and bent his knees, lowered the center of gravity, opened his back and stared at An Luo.
For a while, the entire energy plan arena was silent, and even the on-site commentary fell silent. Everyone's eyes focused on An Luo and Mitchell. The media reporters desperately took photos with their long guns and short cannons. On the big screen, An Luo and Mitchell are almost heads against their heads, and the sweat on their faces is clearly visible.
This is an expected duel. After all, in the current basketball game, it is rarely possible to see the players of both sides open up the space on the court and let the two players go heads-up. All teams want to play a more team-oriented and efficient game. The fact that the stars are always singled out on the court has gradually become the memories of the old fans.
