The Godfather of Basketball

The Thunder's starting point guard is Kidd. It's no surprise that this position. Kidd was originally a starter, but he just swung from a shooting guard to a point guard.

Back with Kidd is Sefolosha, the Thunder's starting defender in the past few years, and again as a starter after Harden's absence.

The small forward position is Middleton, which has performed well before.

It's surprising that power forwards are neither veteran Collison nor rookie Oquin, but directly put PJ Tucker on top.

There is no suspense in the center position, and Brown took the start.

Starting with the five tigers, the remaining four substitutes are Livingston and Bezmore on the perimeter, and Collison and Oquin on the inside.

Except for Kidd, this roster is either a rookie or an ordinary role player, and some have not appeared in the NBA.

"Unless Kidd returns ten years ago, I really can't find a reason why this Thunder team won." The live commentator couldn't help but say.

"Kidd ten years ago couldn't lead such a team to win the game, right?" Asked the commentator.

"Haha, it seems that the Grizzlies are not a piece of paper. If they can lose in such a game, I think they can consider rebuilding." The commentator could not help but laugh.

While they were talking, the starting players on both sides have already started to play.

Brown and Gasol's jump ball, Gasol used the long arm to return the ball to the Grizzlies half, the home team got the opportunity to lead the attack.

Conley held the ball to the frontcourt and passed it directly to the low post Randolph.

In the Thunder's lineup, Tucker this small forward is obviously the biggest breakthrough.

After taking the ball, Randolph leaned back against Tucker.

Sefolosha contracted the defense for the first time.

After seeing it, Randolph tried his best to dig in before Sefolosha assisted.

"boom!"

Randolph was excellent in strength, this time the impact was full, but to his surprise, Tucker behind was not hit by the fly, but was backed up by a small step.

This short forward is much stronger than expected!

Randolph's disbelief hit him again, but still only stepped in a small step.

At this time Sefolosha's double-team had come, he could only choose to return the ball to outside Conley.

There was a restlessness at the scene, what the heck is this Tucker!

Fans with fast hands picked up their mobile phones and searched. They quickly learned about Tucker's resume: No. 35 in the 06 show. The two-year contract was only cut for one year, and he has been wandering in European competitions. The Thunder signed a cheap contract, and they played the forward swingman at the beginning of the season!

This half season is over, why have you been on the power forward? What's more, the key is still standing up to Randolph, this is not scientific!

When Sefolosha retracted, Conley continued to give the ball to Randolph.

This time Randolph dropped his weight to the top and finally took Tucker a step in.

However, this time Sefolosha's defense was faster, and by the time the second attempt was made, Sefolosha's defense was already in place.

With two consecutive waves of backs, the Grizzlies' offensive time is running out, and Randolph can only choose to turn to the bottom and lean back.

Tucker fought hard, and Randolph shot.

"boom!"

The ball slid around the rim and rolled in.

There was a restless scene.

Although the goal was scored, it was more about ballooning. Tucker's defense really surprised them.

When Randolph retired, he also looked at the unknown striker who was playing against him, and obviously took it seriously.

The scene shot at this time is Tang Tian sitting on the sidelines.

Tang Tian's expression did not change much, as if all this was expected by him.

Tucker is actually a geek. In fact, if not for the Rockets, maybe no one can find that he can play so well, but in fact this has a lot to do with his resume in Europe in recent years. There are many white bears in Europe, and they emphasize confrontation. This is also the origin of Tucker's antagonism.

The more important point is that Tony Allen does not have the ability to shoot. Sefolosha can double-team. Even after Allen cuts, Randolph passes, Sefolosha has time to defend.

As for the final goal, it depends on Randolph's personal ability and luck.

Kidd pushed the ball to the frontcourt, at this time the Thunder players directly landed.

It was then that fans discovered the intention of Tang Tian's lineup.

Tucker fell on the right bottom corner, which pulled Randolph straight out of the penalty area.

Coupled with Soflossa, who was originally a three-point shooter, made a stop outside the 45-degree angle to the left, the Thunder's sense of space on the court came out.

Middleton cut to the basket at this time, and then took out Brown's pick-and-roll, Kidd threw the ball and passed the ball.

The Grizzlies' defense has always been at the forefront of the league, but their strength is mainly the Grizzlies in the defensive zone, and Conley and Tony Allen's rushing to the ball from the outside. At the three-point line to the defensive zone, They are actually not so good.

Brown blocked Prince and Gasol threw a long arm out to interfere, but Middleton shot quickly after receiving the ball and hurled the ball before Gasol had his defense in place.

"Oh!"

With a crisp sound, Middleton delivered the ball steadily into the basket.

"Wow!" The commentator at the scene couldn't help but utter a surprise.

The Thunder's play on the court is actually no different from the starting position. Tucker's position is the previous Dior's position, Sefolosha is the former Westbrook, and Middleton plays the natural role. It's Durant's role.

What surprised the narrator was that Middleton's shot, both in size and manner, and even the confident look of the shot, were strikingly similar.

Randolph was not easy to grasp, Conley directly greeted Gasol to a high post to play pick-and-roll. After disassembly, Conley chose to return the ball to Gasol.

But Old Kidd was so experienced that he turned around and patted the pass.

In the floor ball competition, Sefolosha responded quickly, holding the ball in his arms, and then threw it to Tuck who came to take over.

The Grizzlies' offense was disrupted.

Kidd took the ball and advanced to the front court. This time, he dribbled to the left of the three-point line and greeted Middleton and Brown for a double screen outside the three-point line.

After blocking, Middleton went to the top of the circle for a three-pointer, and Brown went straight to the hoop.

At this time no one noticed that Tucker was in place on the right.

However, the Grizzlies' defense is really good. At this time, Conley swooped in the first time and interfered with Tucker's shooting space.

However, Tucker didn't make a shot, but gave the ball back to Middleton at the top of the arc.

Middleton caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

"Oh!"

With a crisp sound, Middleton's three-pointer still scored!

The scene was turbulent.

The Thunder start 5-2!

This 9-person Thunder is completely different from what you think!
