The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 51 Nuggets Edition Melon

Nuggets starting lineup is: Carmelo - Anthony, Chauncey - Billups, JR - Smith, Kenyon - Martin, Nene - Hilario.

The starters for the Thunder are: Turtle, Thabo Sefolosha, Durant, Jeff Green, Nenad Kostic.

Last season, when the two teams played against the Thunder, they basically had nothing to fight back. Unless Durant broke out, the Nuggets controlled by Billups were too stable. His arrival completely liberated Anthony.

On the first goal of the game, Anthony directly placed in the low post. Billups got the ball. Facing Durant's defense, Anthony directly made a three-threat. Durant just took a step back and pulled up Just vote.

"Shua" Anthony's signature move, after a tentative step, he directly pulls out a jumper.

Sitting on the bench, Li Ze could see clearly that Durant's defense was not completely out of position, but in order to prevent Anthony's breakthrough, he had to take a small step back, and was directly hit by the opponent.

This is the advantage of the combination of sudden shots. Currently, Anthony's first step is very explosive. As long as he gets stuck in half of the defender, relying on his strong body and the height of the striker, he can directly and easily run into it. .

"Anthony is in a hot state, and his signature jumper is successful!" The Nuggets' on-site commentator shouted.

The Thunder mainly rely on breakthroughs to score the ball, but the defensive offense against the Nuggets is somewhat blocked, because the opponent's ability to protect the frame inside is very good, and JR's defense on the outside is almost meaningless.

After the turtle picks and rolls, Martin's help defense passes the ball to Jeff Green, but Nene's excellent bounce still interferes with Jeff Green's shot.

"Kang" iron, Anthony received the rebound.

Billups played a pick-and-roll directly after halftime, using Krstic to defend slowly, and then passed it directly to Nene to attack the basket successfully.

On the Thunder's side, Durant attacked. After the pick-and-roll, facing Anthony's defense, he made a quick stop and made a jumper.

"Shua" made a steady hit from the middle distance. After all, Durant's height is here, and his shot point is very high.

The Nuggets' offensive rhythm was very fast. Billups dribbled through half court and passed directly to Anthony on the outside.

"Bang." Martin succeeded in eating the cake and scored under the basket.

The Thunder's offense is also very fast. Turtle went directly to Billups in the past, and after breaking through, he distributed it to Sefoloza on the outside. The latter didn't stop the ball and then passed it to Jeff Green in the bottom corner.

"Kang" hit the iron with three points in the open space.

The rhythm of the two sides has been very fast in the past few minutes. Krstic on the Thunder team can't keep up with the speed of both sides. JR-Smith is at home in this rhythm. First, he scored a 3-pointer from the outside and then broke through the inside station Get to the free throw line.

"Shua" made 2 free throws steadily, and JR-Smith can be considered to be able to shoot suddenly, but sometimes the shot selection is not good.

With 3 minutes left in the first quarter, the Nuggets led 23 to 17 by 6 points. Coach Brooks requested a timeout.

The fans at the scene saw the team's performance so well, and kept cheering for the home team. This is the result of reaching the Western Conference Finals last year. Their popularity has skyrocketed. Everyone is looking forward to better results in the new season.

"Kayce, pull up the offense after playing, and have a chance to make a decisive shot. Ibaka, pay attention to the protection of the rebound!"

Coach Brooks replaced Sefoloza with Li Ze and Krstic with Ibaka, and the lineup's movement speed has been strengthened.

The Nuggets also sent rookie Ty Lawson here, replacing Billups, and Afflalo replaced JR-Smith. It seems that both sides want their core players to play the first quarter.

After Guigui dribbled the ball for half the court, Li Ze came over to catch the ball. Seeing Afflalo in front of him, he didn't pick and roll, and directly held the ball in his right hand to speed up the breakthrough. Suddenly, he pulled back near the free throw line, pulled it up and shot.

"Shua" made a steady hit from the middle distance. For this kind of defender who is shorter than him, Li Ze directly and brutally eats the opponent raw, because he is taller and physically better than you.

Coupled with the blessing of the achievement badge [Ankle Terminator] + [Hot Zone Hunter], role players in singles are still relatively confident.

"Wow, Kayce is the Thunder's third pick this year. It seems that the Thunder has a good vision." The home commentator briefly introduced Li Ze.

The Nuggets felt the changes in the Thunder when they attacked. It was difficult for them to penetrate deep inside. Ibaka did a good job in assisting defense. Lawson didn't handle the ball well, and Martin couldn't take the pot.

"Kang" Durant accepted the rebound and passed it to the accelerating Li Ze.

After receiving the ball, Li Ze continued to speed up. Facing Nene's delay, he made a quick turn and passed directly.

But Li Ze easily put the ball in with a light lever in the air, "My bowl!"

Li Ze returned to the defense and rushed to the referee to signal that Anthony had hit his arm with the ball.

The Nuggets attacked Lawson and honestly passed the ball to Anthony. Facing Durant's defense, he clicked and went directly with his left hand to break through.

The first time was interfered by Ibaka and missed the goal, and the second time he jumped from the starting point to the backboard and sent the ball into the basket.

Li Ze looked at Anthony's set of movements, and was a little envious. If the other party also had a badge, he must be dressed in purple. The first step after the tentative step was too fast, and he got stuck halfway.

After Li Zeyun passed halftime, his teammates were all on the line, handing hands continuously. Durant suddenly accelerated and rushed to the inside.

A fake move sent Afflalo flying, and during the breakthrough, he passed the ball through the crotch and passed precisely under Martin's crotch. .

"Bang" the ball hit the basket hard, and the audience let out a burst of exclamation.

"God, how did the ball pass, oh my god! It passed directly through the crotch, an imaginative pass, and Russell also dunked it beautifully!" The commentator also applauded this exquisite pass.

Guigui didn't play well in the first quarter, he was always assisted in his breakthroughs, and his shooting feel was a bit bad. This dunk let him breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Ze looked calm, "Bullet Passer" made his passing speed faster, which is why Martin didn't react immediately.

Turtle got emotional and kept pressing Lawson's dribble, but the opponent was very fast. After a pick-and-roll, he wanted to pass to Afflalo on the weak side, but Li Ze predicted that he would directly steal it.

Li Ze rushed across the half court quickly, and Lawson chased after him. He didn't slow down after crossing the three-point line. He saw Durant speeding up on the right side and directly threw the ball high.

This height is not difficult for Durant, stretching out his long arms, and easily pouring the ball into the basket.

"哐" fast break dunk succeeded, the audience burst into hustle and bustle.

"Beautiful dunk, it seems that our rookie Lawson is a little nervous on the court!" The commentator was a little disappointed with Lawson.

With the end of this dunk, the two sides still had a final attack, and the Thunder continued to chase points, 25 to 25, and the two sides tied.

After halftime, Lawson handed the ball directly to Anthony. The latter slowly pressed the time. Afflalo came over and hung up the cover, so it was replaced by Li Ze to defend.

Li Ze watched Anthony in front of him keep dribbling the ball under his crotch to find the rhythm, so he could only move his body back a small step to prevent being passed by with one step. As a result, with just such a move, the opponent directly combined the ball from outside and pulled out his hand.

"Shua" 3 points into the net, Li Ze has already sealed Anthony's eyes after jumping up, but it is still useless.

After Anthony scored a goal, he tapped his head with three fingers and showed a relaxed smile. This celebratory action ignited the audience. It seems that the team boss is looking for a place for the rookie.

In the last 16 seconds, Li Zeyun handed hands to his teammates continuously after halftime. Durant came up to cover Li Ze, so that it became Anthony to defend Li Ze.

With 10 seconds left, his teammates pulled away, and Li Ze also began to dribble the ball continuously under his crotch to find the rhythm. He changed direction in front of his body and broke through with his left hand. Anthony's center of gravity was mobilized, and then he pulled back directly.

Anthony pounced forward, Li Ze suddenly turned around with the ball in his right hand, and then took a step back, Anthony was completely shaken away.

"Wow!" Amidst the exclamation of the Nuggets' home audience, Li Ze slightly drifted his jump shot.

"Shua" 3-pointer hit steadily.

"OMG, Kayce completely swayed Anthony and hit a three-pointer at the buzzer. This shot is really exciting!" The live commentator sent a voice of praise.

Anthony looked at Li Ze and smiled for a while without saying a word. Durant and Guigui immediately came over and clapped hands.

"Nice job, Bro!"
