145. Self-confidence
In the face of the menacing Jeff Green, Wu Dawei is not too worried, don't look at his posture is very strong, but who knows if he is bluffing?!
Wu Dawei will read the scouting report sent to him by the team before the game more carefully. Jeff Green, as the opponent that Wu Dawei may encounter in the game, naturally has detailed information written down.
Therefore, Wu Dawei not only knows that this forward is actually too different from Kevin Durant, but also knows that he has just returned from injury. No one knows what his state is, but can you expect a guy with just the right cold to be full of energy?
"Hey, is your cold cured? Buddy! ”
Jeff Green held the ball, but his offense was not decisive and he was in a stalemate with Wu on the outside. So, Wu Dawei guessed that he might be a little hesitant, so he took advantage of the gap between his possession of the ball and yelled at him.
"You know what? When I was a child, my mom told me that children with colds are weak in their limbs, maybe you should shoot in this place because it will save you some less energy! Wu Dawei took a small step back defiantly and continued: "That's it, vote!" I'll let you vote! Do you dare?! ”
Jeff Green didn't shoot. Maybe Wu Dawei was poking at his pain, and where Wu Dawei was one step away from him, he chose to break through the latter!
This is an absolutely wrong decision. When the Oklahoma fans saw Green's choice, they immediately cheered a lot quieter, because the next thing they saw Green was on the road to the paint area and was forced to stop by Wu Dawei.
With just two steps back, David Wu easily had the upper hand in this defense, standing in front of the baseline, while Jeff Green was directly forced to stop the dribble by his position, he was holding the basketball on the baseline, and he had no teammates behind him.
Unanswered, isolated, this is an absolutely dangerous position!
Wu Dawei pressed forward, and then he stretched out his hand towards the basketball in Green's arms. Green knows very well what happens when David Wu puts his hand in his arms and touches the basketball, and the best case scenario can only be a scrum. Therefore, Green knew that he had to protect the basketball before his teammates came up to support him, so he saw that Wu Dawei was about to rush up and grab it, Green subconsciously waved his arm.
"Ahh
But suddenly he heard a cry of pain...... Wu Dawei fell to the ground in response, but Green swore that he had never touched the Chinese at all, and he was a little stunned, but then he heard the referee's whistle.
"What!?"
Green felt wronged, and he spread his hands at the referee, saying that he was innocent, but the referee ignored him. And when Green turned around, he found that Wu Dawei had already climbed up from the ground like a nobody.
"Liar!" Green muttered viciously in Wu Dawei's ear. Wu Dawei didn't care about this, he wasn't afraid of the boos in the audience, how could he care about a scolding word. What's more, he can also say no: "Loser!" ”
When Wu Dawei spoke, the corners of his mouth were even slightly upturned, because the "fake fall" just now was the "little trick" that Charles Barkley once gave him, and once when he was playing against the Celtics, Paul Pierce used this trick to make Wu Dawei suffer a loss.
And now, he's using it for Jeff Green.
The Cavaliers regained possession of the ball amid a barrage of boos. That's the bad thing about the away game, you will be in the hostility of tens of thousands of people whenever and wherever you are.
Ramon Sessions dribbled past half court and Byron Scott only brought David Wu to the court in this substitution. And Thunder coach Brooks did not return Durant to the court, but let Jeff Green, who had just returned from injury, continue to play on the court against Wu Dawei, who has been in good form recently. …,
This is clearly another wrong decision. Although Wu Dawei is far less energetic on the offensive end than he is on the defensive end, his average of 16 points per game should not be underestimated, and he cannot be said to be an offensive master, but at least he is also a scorer.
On the offensive end, Wu Dawei's ability to attack independently is indeed not high, but his grasp of shooting is extremely good. And the training with Ramon Sessions throughout the summer also made them very well compatible.
The two of them completed a cooperation at the top of the three-point arc, Wu Dawei pretended to step forward to block and dismantle, and the moment Sessions walked beside him, Wu Dawei directly dodged away and rushed to the basket. At the same time, Sessions shoved the basketball directly between the two Thunder players!
When Wu received the basketball, he was standing between the free throw line and the top of the paint arc. He jumped straight up, Jeff Green didn't have time to react to it, and the interior players didn't have time to come up to make up for it, so when Wu Dawei threw the basketball, he didn't get the slightest interference.
Basketball into the net! The score was rewritten again, and the Cavaliers were the lead again.
32:30。 Jeff Green's look of annoyance at his own trick was as disappointing as his next appearance, facing Wu Dawei, his expression on both offensive and defensive ends was far from Kevin Durant, who used to be side by side with him!
With the tacit cooperation of Wu Dawei and Sessions, the Cavaliers quickly opened up the gap for the team in the second quarter, 38:33. The difference of 5 points is not huge, but it is the biggest difference between the two sides in this game.
Brooks knew he couldn't afford to remain indifferent, with Wu scoring four points after coming on the court and growing more confident against Jeff Green on the defensive end.
Self-confidence is a wonderful thing, and if you ignore it and don't stop it, you may end up with a lot of energy!
So, Brooks quickly made a change, beckoning to the bench and replacing Kevin Durant on the court.
When the team is at a disadvantage, he can only hope for his superstar. Kevin Durant, with his superhuman ability, single-handedly turned the tide of the game, which has been played countless times in his short career.
And this time, Brooks hopes that Kevin Durant can do the same. He replaced Kevin Durant with Kevin Durant and also brought the team's defensive stalwart, Swiss handsome Sefrosa, on the court.
The Thunder coach wants Kevin Durant to be a great help to the team on the offensive end, but at the same time, he doesn't want him to waste too much body on the defensive end; Although Wu Dawei has scored many times in these attacks, Brooks found that most of his tacit cooperation with his teammates achieved the score; Therefore, a lot of running is indispensable.
Sevrosa, on the other hand, is an excellent defensive follower.
Using two people to contain one person, Sefrosa felt that this was definitely the best way to dissipate each other's physical and mental strength!
