Chapter 62: Heads-up
Falling behind, the second quarter against the Cavaliers bench did not recover, and the Nuggets' spirit dissipated a lot.
By the third quarter, the Nuggets put up their final stand.
The defensive intensity of both sides immediately intensified.
The two sides hit the iron one after another, and the score increased alternately.
The Nuggets slowly moved back some of the scores.
But with three minutes left in the third quarter, Qin Yang singled Billups, relied on speed to break through directly, and then pulled the ball to the right side and directly forced a three-point shot.
hit two three-pointers in a row, assisted Dronte West to hit a three-pointer, and in the blink of an eye, the difference between the two sides returned to more than 15 points, and the momentum of the Nuggets was completely collapsed.
In this way, the away Cavaliers won the opponent bloodlessly.
Of course, for such a game, the Nuggets are very unconvinced.
Chaunsibi-Loops:
"It was a game that made us feel very uncomfortable, it seemed like no matter how we shot, we couldn't score, and the opponent always hit, and it was like that from the beginning, do I doubt that we are really quick loans, it's so frustrating."
Carmelo Anthony:
"We're going to play in the playoffs and it's just an accident."
It's no wonder Cameron is depressed, melon's 5-of-14 shooting percentage in this game, if it weren't for 2-of-3 three-pointers, the shooting percentage would be outrageously low.
In this game, the Nuggets were not in shape and were caught off guard by the Cavaliers.
Qin Yang's 14 points and 14 assists are good.
Mo Williams and Dron Tevez both scored 20+ points again and became good helpers for the emperor.
After defeating the Nuggets, the Cavaliers traveled non-stop to the small city of Oklahoma to challenge the Thunder on the road. Compared with the previous two away games, after arriving in Oklahoma this time, all the players of the Cavaliers are lacking in interest.
This is not only because Oklahoma is a small city with nothing to do, but more importantly, four consecutive away games, and going out in the evening, the Cavaliers players can't stand it.
Qin Yang ignored the others, and set off directly with the basketball.
The Cavaliers didn't rent any practice space here, in fact, the Cavaliers just said hello to the Thunder and used one of their basketball courts for practice.
When Qin Yang came, he saw that the players of the Thunder team were training.
It's not a team, Qin Yang is not familiar with them, so he ran to the side with the ball alone and started training.
There was no strength training, Qin Yang mainly practiced shooting, practiced breaking rhythm, and the training intensity was not large.
However, Qin Yang's three-point shot had reached the point of being superb, and the three-point shot swished in, attracting the attention of the rest of the people around.
"Hey man, my name is Kevin Durant."
The Thunder boss laughed and said hello.
"Qin Yang," Qin Yang stretched out his hand, and compared to the unique way of greeting other black people, the handshake is not common in the NBA, "You can call me Bruce." ”
"Okay, how about a game, Bruce."
"How to compare? Kevin. ”
Kevin Durant pointed to the three-point line: "One minute, whoever hits more three-pointers is considered a victory." ”
"No problem."
Kevin Durant soon started a three-point shooting competition with Qin Yang.
Serving with Kevin Durant was Kevin Durant's teammate, Russell Westbrook, a rookie of the Thunder this year. Russell was very low-key when he served, not domineering at all, and it was difficult for Qin Yang to believe that this was the same person as Russell Westbrook in the game.
Sou!
Sou!
Kevin Durant's three-point shot is accurate and his shooting posture is very standard.
And every time he made a shot, Kevin Durant was raised high, his arms were almost straightened, and the arm span and bounce, Qin Yang was dumbfounded:
"It's a way to defend, no wonder he's one of the most perverted players in NBA history."
The more players Qin Yang plays, the more information he learns from the future learning machine, such as LeBron James is a legendary player in the future NBA, and Kevin Durant is the same.
Not to mention anything else, if you think about it from the perspective of shooting, Kevin Durant is really too perverted, with this height and arm span, there is no one to defend on the outside at all.
However, Kevin Durant's three-point shot has not been practiced very well.
At least the speed of the shot is a little slower, and after a few shots, the posture and strength of the shot will be different.
In one minute, Kevin Durant threw 24 balls and hit 18 of them, which is really good with speed and efficiency, after all, there is a long time to serve and shoot.
"Alright, let's get started!"
Qin Yang said hello and got ready.
Russell Westbrook passed, Qin Yang stepped forward and grabbed the ball directly, and before his body could stand firmly, he shot without jumping very high.
Sou!
Basketball hits.
"Speed up."
Qin Yang shouted, Russell hurriedly passed the ball, Qin Yang received the ball and dribbled back to shoot a three-point shot, and then asked for Westbrook.
Catch, dribble, pull, jump and shoot.
Catch the ball, shoot.
Catch the ball, break through the stop, and shoot a three-point shot.
Qin Yang's shot is different from Kevin Durant, not emphasizing the very standard jump shot, not pursuing height advantage, but focusing on dodging defenders and gaining shooting space.
In other words, Kevin Durant's three-point shot and shooting rely more on his height and bounce advantage, while Qin Yang's three-point shot relies more on his offensive ability and speed with the ball.
As a result, Qin Yang made 34 shots and hit 28 goals.
Completely winning in terms of quantity and quality.
"Russell, pass me faster, or I'll win." Kevin Durant said with a smile after losing, but there was no complaint in his tone but a joke.
"Hello, my name is Russell Westbrook."
The point guard of the Thunder team walked up to greet Qin Yang.
Qin Yang smiled and introduced himself.
"Bruce, how about a heads-up?" Westbrook's eyes lit up, exactly as he had done with the previous pass.
"Why not?"
Qin Yang immediately engaged in a bullfight with Westbrook.
Matador is a very simple heads-up approach.
Qin Yang and Russell Westbrook have one goal per person, 11 balls to see who can win.
The first ball, Qin Yang attacked.
Westbrook defended directly closely, constantly ramming Qin *** with his strength, and he didn't give Qin Yang a chance to prepare well with the ball, and Westbrook was not a little embarrassed, but full of battles.
"This is really a madman."
Qin Yang was a little speechless, but a stubbornness suddenly rose in his heart.
After turning his back slightly, Qin Yang dribbled and accelerated directly, at this time, Westbrook suddenly jumped up and wanted to steal, Qin Yang quickly dribbled and changed hands, and Westbrook pounced.
At this time, Qin Yang was not polite, and directly hit the basket, a light dunk.
"It's my turn."
Westbrook was full of fighting spirit, and after holding the ball, he didn't say a word, and rushed directly to the basket, simple, direct and rude. Qin Yang was stunned and accelerated back.
Westbrook accelerates straight to the basket for a dunk.
This explosive power, this power, Qin Yang felt very helpless.
"Chris Paul isn't so perverted."
