On the topic of who is stronger, Ji Guoyi or Durant, Charles. Barkley has long expressed his opinion, saying: "If Durant is going to overtake Fox, the only way is to kill him!" The big ass also said: "The reason the Thunder can't beat the Clippers is because Fox is the only player who can guard Durant, and he is the only player who can suppress Durant in terms of height, reach, speed, and strength." ”

The Clippers' tactics today are very simple to say, aren't your Thunder's interior bulls? Then we will move the little fox to the No. 3 position and let him face Durant who has always wanted revenge, but has not succeeded every time. In this way, Ji Guoyi has turned into an outside lineman, no matter how good you are on the inside, how about taking our outside fox?

The performance of the Thunder's two interior players on the defensive end is really not to be said, and both of them are first-class interior defensive players. But on the offensive end, these two are barely second-rate, they don't have low-post skills, they don't have back-to-back footsteps, and they can't get out of the penalty area.

It is said that Ibaka worked mid-range shooting last summer, and I don't know if it has any effect, but judging from his first two games, he does not have much lethality for the time being.

The elder Dunleavy was in the home team's locker room, and said to the Clippers players with a strong voice: "After the opening, we have to resolutely play the inside line, the Thunder's two interior chassis are not solid enough, we don't fight with them today for speed and pace, we have to use our strength to defeat them in the low position!" ”

O'Neal came to his senses when he heard this, and old Dunleavy said this, isn't that just to hit him. Who else could be more powerful on the Clippers than him?

The Clippers have played two regular-season games. Although it wasn't all over the field like in the preseason. This made the dead fat man breathe a sigh of relief. But this guy didn't play too well in the first two games, only scored 8 points in the first game, and still scored 8 points in the second game, which is not like his Shaq. The consistent style of a large diesel engine.

O'Neill is also a face-saving man, how to say that he is also a strong contender for the first center forward in history, and he really can't accept his performance in the first two games. In his mind, even if he only played more than 20 minutes, he should have scored about 12 points and 6 rebounds. The current performance is much worse than he expected.

The Clippers' strategy sounds good, but will it be able to beat the Thunder?

The old Dunleavy naturally has a killer feature, and the Clippers have three keys to victory today: first, Ji Guoyi wants to have the upper hand in the confrontation with Durant as before; Then, O'Neal must play in the low post and cause damage to the Thunder's interior line; In the end, the Clippers will force the Thunder to shift the offensive core to Westbrook, and as long as Willow finally kills Durant, the Clippers' victory will be assured.

The players of both teams played, and Barkley looked at Ji Guoyi and Durant on the court. "Fox's speed has dropped a bit this year, and his weight has increased to 240 pounds," he said with a smile. This allows him to break through with enough power to push his opponents away. In the last fight, I even saw him play a back-to-back single in the low post, which is a rare scene in the past, which shows that his strength has increased a lot, so the loss of speed is negligible in my opinion. ”

Kenny. Smith knew what he meant, and then said: "Now the difference between Durant and Fox is getting bigger and bigger, they entered the NBA in the same year, and the two were similar in technical style and physical fitness at that time. But since the duo's second season, Fox's muscles have grown significantly faster than Durant's, his arms getting thicker every year, and his confrontation getting better every year. In comparison, now he's more of an inside lineman, and Durant is completely on the outside. ”

Charles. Barkley nodded, he could also see that Ji Guosha was transforming, especially this summer. The current fox brother is more like a range-enhanced version of the pinnacle Xiao Si, who has excellent interior confrontation ability and a range far beyond the three-point line, which can be said to be the benchmark for the league's new generation of No. 4 superstars.

The big ass compared the two, and said: "Durant's breakthrough power is now worse than fox, his strength is too weak, he can't break through the defender, although he has a height and arm span advantage, but he can't go to the low post to beat the opponent who is shorter than himself." We have seen more than once that Marion, Gerrard, and Iguodala will stick close to each other when defending Durant, and they like to disrupt Durant's rhythm with physical confrontations, and the effect is very good. ”

With the comments of the two commentators with extremely serious personal tendencies, the game is about to begin.

Clippers fielded: Billups, Ray. Aaron, Ji Guoyi, Joel. Anthony, Shaq. O'Neal's starting lineup.

Dunleavy Sr. greeted Iguodala today and wanted him to play a sixth-man fight.

Thunder fielded: Westbrook, Sefrosa, Durant, Ibaka, Chandler.

This is a normal start for the Thunder, and it is also considered by the media to be a set of lineups to restrain the Clippers.

Coach Brooks, who led the team to 61 points by the Clippers two years ago, and is still not swept away, can be said to be very fatal. But after seeing the starting lineup of the Clippers, the coach, who has a lot of shadows on the Clippers, immediately jumped in his heart, and he had a very bad feeling.

At this moment, on the field, the substitutes began to leave the field, and the main players of the two teams were greeting each other, waiting for the game to start.

Durant has only one Ji Guosha in his eyes, and in the face of this man who has been unable to beat him for three years, Durant's eyes have become hotter this year. Before the start of the game, he and Ji Guoyi gave a light high-five, and they didn't even have a meaningful hug. Finally, he hesitated, but still said softly: "I will definitely defeat you completely today." ”

When Ji Guoyan heard this, he sighed softly, and said in a helpless tone: "Why bother, if you can beat me, you won't say this kind of thing to me every time we meet, such lines are really nothing new." ”

Durant's trash talk skills are too low-level, and his face turned red when he heard the words, but he couldn't make a sound.

Ji Guo shamefully said that since you stupid person can't talk trash, don't come to provoke the Sprinkle family. I don't know where I learned Kobe's problem?

The dead fox despised in his heart. The mouth is even more unrelenting. Soon he made up for it and said, "And you know what? You remind me of the villains in the anime, who are kicked into the sky by the protagonist at the end of each episode, which is the ending that has already been set. However, they will still resist uselessly, and the next episode will appear intact to do the impossible task again. ”

"Bastard, just wait and see!"

Durant is really angry at this time. But he really didn't have any sharp words to fight back, and in the end, he could only return to his own half with a stomach full of depression, dropping a half-dirty sentence.

The game is about to start......

"Dead fox, come on, kill him!"

Taylor. Swift came to the scene today, and she sat in the front row near the tech desk, cheering on her boyfriend.

Ji Guoshi suddenly became energetic, stepped forward and pushed down the big shark, he wanted to jump the ball by himself.

Referees in the NBA. In the past two years, the height of the ball has been getting lower and lower, which makes many spring people always lose to guys like Duncan and Gasol who have no bounce on the jump ball. These people's ability to bounce is severely degraded, though. But he is good at grasping the rhythm, the instantaneous reaction rate is fast, and he is tall and has long arms, so he can always beat the opponent on the jump ball.

The game between the Thunder and the Spurs, Tyson. Chandler lost to Duncan on the jump ball, and Stone Buddha won 50 percent of the jump ball last season, basically relying on reflexes and judgment.

Ji Guoyi has not jumped the ball many times, less than 10 times in the past three years, but his winning rate is 100%, that is, he has never lost on the jump ball. Another giant panda in New York has a perverted winning rate on the jumping ball, reaching a 95% winning rate, which is basically unprecedented.

As soon as Chandler saw that Ji Guoyan was in front of him, he couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart.

Everyone knows that the giant panda is the first in the league to jump ball, and the only one who can defeat the giant panda is this little fox.

Ji Guoyi rarely jumps the ball, but everyone knows that he is good in this field, and Clippers fans immediately cheered for Ji Guoyi when they saw their core walking into the middle circle.

On the big screen at Staples Arena, last season's jump ball wins were immediately shown - Ji Guoqiu won 78 times, Dareham Porter won 58 times, Howard won 51 times, Chandler won 46 times, Bynum won 44 times, Camby won 41 times, and Okafor won 40 times.

Chandler won nearly twice as much on the jump ball as the Nets' panda, and now he doesn't think he'll win against the more perverted foxes.

The referee threw the basketball into the air, I don't know if it was a slippery hand, and the direction in which the basketball rose was slightly biased towards Chandler.

Chandler should have understood at this point that he should not give up as long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, and if he is well prepared this time, this deviation will be enough for him to become the first player to defeat Ji Guoyi on the jump ball. But he gave up first, his reaction was a beat slower, and when he understood, Ji Guoyi had already taken the first step to pull the basketball from the top of his head to his side.

"Real food!" Ji Guoyi didn't give up after winning, and directly released the taunt skill after landing.

Chandler heard it, of course, but he decided to put up with it. Last season with the Lakers, he knew the end of a verbal fight with this fox, and now even Garnett is not willing to talk more with the dead fox. Ji Guoyan's bastard's face is getting thicker and thicker, if the words that scold him are too vicious, this dead fox will also release Beverly's mad dog to come out and bite, Rashid. The tragedy of Wallace's unlucky bastard is still vivid.

As soon as the game began, Ji Guoyi attacked Durant one-on-one according to the pre-game deployment, and it was best to beat this guy who still looked like a thin bamboo pole for three years.

The Thunder did not arrange to exchange Sefrosa for Ji Guosha, firstly, because the height difference between the two was too far, and secondly, because the Thunder Thunder Thunder Thunderbolt Warrior T Allen is too flexible, and it will be difficult for Durant to keep up with the latter's run.

Durant is now 220 pounds, which is said to be the result of gaining weight over the summer.

When the guy first entered the league, he weighed only 206 pounds, was skinny and looked like he was born with a dysplasia. Just think of an NBA player who is 210cm tall, weighs only 206 pounds, and is not as strong as Curry.

Ji Guoshi is ashamed of Durant, needless to say, he is strong! In terms of speed and explosiveness, he and Durant are evenly matched, but weigh 20 pounds more than each other. Strength is one level higher. Ji Guozhi almost crushed the inside line with James's breakthrough method.

Durant was forcibly pushed away by Ji Guosha. Ibaka quickly arrived to help.

The two inside lines of the Thunder are best at assisting in defense, and they are extremely fast, blocking Ji Guoyi's breakthrough route in time.

Ji Guoqiu, who was far away in New York, saw O'Neill use his strength to trap Chandler behind him, and the position was already in the restricted area.

If there is no telepathy, Ji Guoyi will definitely not have such a good vision, and his attention is focused on Durant and Ibaka, facing the double attack after the help defense. He's going to be able to pass the basketball to the perimeter, so it's easy for the Thunder players to cut it off.

But now he naturally won't do it again, just like Ji Guoqiu last year, pressing his wrist down and hitting the basketball to O'Neal's hand.

O'Neal received the basketball in the restricted area, took another step to the basket, squeezed under the basket with his body, and scored the ball with an easy layup. The entire duration of this offense, Chandler was firmly blocked behind O'Neal with his broad build, facing O'Neal, who weighed 320 pounds. His bounce, reach, athleticism were all useless, and he couldn't stop defending at all.

"Awesome!"

"Well passed!"

Ji Guoyi and O'Neill slapped each other. This big fat shark is very comfortable to play.

O'Neal's age and injuries have seen him lose his power in the low post in the first two seasons. But he can still crush opponents with power in the low post, but the speed is not as fast as before, and he often has to squeeze in step by step, which gives the opponent time to trap him, and the final result is that it is easy to be cut off or fouled.

But if O'Neal squeezes into the box first, if the basketball can be quickly passed to his hands at this time, the big shark is still an inexplicable existence.

Many fans should know that this big fat man's hook in the restricted area is top-notch, and in 2K games a few years ago, his "close-range shooting" attribute has been a full value of 99 for many years in a row, and O'Neal definitely beat Howard a few streets in this regard.

Ji Guoyi spotted Durant's flaws in strength on the outside, and continued to use breakthroughs to break through to the inside in the opening game to attract the Thunder's interior pack, and then used the vision advantage brought to him by telepathy to pass the basketball to O'Neal, who was about to be in place.

O'Neal finally played his peak six or seven success today, the Clippers only wanted him to play 20 minutes of high-level games, O'Neal himself is also satisfied with this positioning, but only in these 20 minutes, the team can feed him as much as possible and not let his physical strength go to waste.

Today's Clippers did just that, and Ji Guoyi's performance looked like he was wearing the wrong jersey, and his performance today was obviously the black-bellied panda.

Everyone knows that Ji Guoyi has a certain passing ability, but he didn't expect his breakthrough score to have such a level.

Ji Guoyi already has a historic offensive ability, if you add the top strategy and ball sharing ability, it is basically incomprehensible, such a fox brother is a bug that makes everyone headaches, just like O'Neal at his peak.

In just three minutes, O'Neal scored 7 points in a row under the feeding of Ji Guoyi, and also caused Chandler to commit two fouls. If it weren't for O'Neal's free throws, which were as bad as ever, with only 3 of 6 free throws, he would have scored 10 points by now.

The Thunder quickly called a timeout, they got Chandler this summer, and naturally they didn't recruit Perkins from the Green Army with a high salary like another time and space. But not to mention, facing O'Neal at the end of his career, Perkins is so strong that it is better to be able to carry his center one-on-one.

Coach Brooks took a look around his bench and found that no one on the inside could do better than Chandler, except to bring on Collison to top the top and tell the outside to pack O'Neal.

Since the Clippers have a tactical deployment before the game, they will have a set of solutions regardless of success or failure. Allen came in handy, and his wide range of off-ball runs would be a sharp blade that would disrupt the Thunder's defensive setup.

After the game restarted, Sefrosa and Westbrook began to wrap up O'Neal, who was furious on the inside, and the result was that the Clippers' outside line leaked out again. Allen hit two three-pointers in a row, and the entire Staples arena immediately boiled, and the tsunami cheers brought the morale of the Clippers players to a peak.

The score was 15:5, and in less than five minutes of the opening game, the Thunder were beaten by a set of combination punches that the Clippers had prepared for a long time, and they only had half a life left. Now that the Clippers have opened up the situation on the outside, the Thunder is clearly about to collapse.

The Thunder players will also be dumbfounded, they first picked the Spurs, and then killed the Bulls, morale is high, self-confidence has reached an unprecedented height, and they are preparing to overturn the Clippers in one go, but they never thought that they would be blossomed inside and outside as soon as they came up, is it just an illusion that the first two games were won?

Many commentators with hindsight immediately pretended to be expected, and said: The Thunder defeated the Spurs in the first game, and that was because the latter was too old, and it was the same result for other strong teams; In the second game, the Thunder defeated the Bulls again, because the Chicagoans were in a period of infighting, and their combat effectiveness could not be cohesive, and it was the same result for other strong teams. Now against the real litmus test of the Clippers, the Thunder immediately revealed their true form.

Old Dunleavy secretly shouted in his heart that it was a fluke, today's tactical deployment, the Clippers were all successfully completed, and he didn't expect it to be so smooth in advance. But anyway, the game is like this, and the Clippers will be much easier to play next, they have mastered the first move, and it will be difficult for the Thunder to turn the game around.

The Clippers scored back-to-back outside shots, and Billups hit another three-pointer, and less than two minutes after the first timeout, Coach Brooks reluctantly called for another timeout.

This time, Coach Brooks instructed the team to block the pass route to O'Neal, and Collison used a forward defense, but the perimeter players could no longer be easily contained, and the first goal was to "not lose position".

As the so-called wrong step, wrong step, Coach Brooks's tactics were deployed, but after the game restarted, O'Neal began to turn to pull space for Ji Guosha, and the Thunder's tactics of pausing and arranging this time were in vain.

If the Thunder players want to intercept the Clippers player's pass to O'Neal, they will naturally not be able to take into account the breakthrough of the assistant defense discipline and national shame, which creates a real one-on-one opportunity for the Fox brother to be with Durant. (To be continued......)
