Chapter 14 Westbrook, Harden, Durant, King Yan, and Ibaka? !

Chapter 14 Westbrook + Harden + Durant + Wang Yan + Ibaka? !
"I'm quite straightforward. I'm here for Wang Yan!"

Soon, Westbrook and Durant were interviewed by reporters on the scene.

Westbrook is as straightforward as ever and never hides his thoughts.

"I heard his draft template was me."

Durant also spoke up: "So I have to come and see the guy whose first draft template is me."

At this time, Wang Yan on the field was warming up.

Tiger's chiseled dunk.

360, big loop.

Wade can't even be called average!
"Russell, I think his dunks are as good as yours."

Durant touched his chin and looked at Wang Yan's figure.

“He does look like me physically, but his dunks are kind of like you.”

Durant had an idea.

"I think he is a combination of you and me!"

Durant's stature, Westbrook's dunks.

Pass it on, Wang Yan is the child of Durant and Westbrook.

Soon, the starting players of both teams came on the court.

Game start.

And just as Westbrook was chatting with KD.

What happened on the court made KD stand up instantly.

After Wang Yan easily defeated the opposing center in a jump ball, Ronaldinho's long pass assisted Wang Yan to complete the opening jump ball.

"OH man!"

Durant's eyes widened: "He did it again. I thought it was just an accident."

Opening jump ball alley-oop.

Durant had seen this operation in Wang Yan's game highlights.

but.

Despite such an exciting scene, Durant would rather believe that it was just a coincidence.

"KD, you can practice this play."

Westbrook on the side also suggested: "We can let you try this tactic."

"..."

Durant rolled his eyes at Westbrook: "You think you're funny?"

Wang Yan’s static talent is very similar to his own.

But the speed just now was so fast and the jumping height was so high.

Durant is not blind.

They are all far above me.

Let yourself play this tactic.

Just talking about the success rate of jump balls, it may not exceed 50%.

"Don't talk about that. The guy named Ma Shang is very fast in attack."

The voice just fell.

As soon as the Friars sent the ball from the baseline, Marshon Brooks started scoring.

With the help of a screen, he decisively looked for three-point opportunities on the outside.

Bang!
However, faced with this kind of completely irresponsible offensive approach that disregards oneself.

Wang Yan would give them a heavy blow.

With a big block, Wang Yan hit the ball directly into the second-level stands.

And what a coincidence, Wang Yan hit the ball directly into Durant's hands.

"Damn it, the length of this basketball flight must be more than ten meters."

Off the court, Russell Westbrook's mouth twitched twice.

He had only seen such a powerful block from Dwight Howard.

"I'm sure he's stronger than Dwight!"

Durant passed the ball to Wang Yan.

then.

He secretly shook his hands while the fans weren't paying attention.

"What's wrong KD?" Westbrook asked.

"He's much stronger than Dwight, and my hands are numb."

At this position and distance, Wang Yan's block shot could actually make Durant's fingers numb when he received the ball.

This shows what?
This shows that if Durant hadn't blocked it, the basketball would have slid a longer distance.
Wang Yan’s power is so fucking terrifying!
"And did you see that? Wang Yan blocked Marshon Brooks' three-pointer. His defensive area is the most scarce asset in the NBA."

Players who are taller than 2 meters can spread out beyond the three-point line.

This is a very valuable feature.

Pause back.

Marshon Brooks looked for his center and tried to play a pick-and-roll. With the lesson learned from the previous round, Brooks moved to the basket and threw a high pass, trying for an air relay.

pity.

Marshon Brooks still underestimated Wang Yan's defensive area.

Brooks' pass did not pass over Wang Yan's fingers.

Easily disrupted the alley-oop pass.

Wang Yan landed and started counterattack mode again.

He dribbled the ball quickly, accelerated past Marshon Brooks, and at the center line, he changed direction again to shake off the defender.

Wang Yan's flat-rim windmill dunk shocked the Friars' home stadium.

"Anti-python KD! That's why he's a lot like you!"

This dunk made Westbrook cheer completely.

"He can also finish the run after getting the rebound."

"Especially his change of direction in the middle line, it has your charm."

Durant also has a sharp gaze.

The highlights seen in the video are indeed very different from the face-to-face experience.

Wang Yan's change of direction near the center line not only maintained stable ball control, but also did not slow down at all.

Durant knows too well how difficult it is for a player over 2 meters tall to complete a change of direction dribble at high speed.

Not an exaggeration.

He practiced this move for two whole summers.

When he first entered the league, Durant's dribbling skills were not as good as they are now, and dribbling mistakes were common.

If Durant changes direction in front of his body, he will lose the ball even if there is no defense.

After Durant improved his ball-handling skills during the two-year offseason, he directly became the NBA's scoring king.

And Wang Yan.

Just in college, he already has a bag of skills.

"Russell, have you ever thought of a picture?" Durant suddenly smelled.

"What picture?"

"When a team's starting center, power forward, and small forward are all over 2 meters tall."

“Isn’t this exactly our current lineup?”

Westbrook smiled: "When Kendrick Perkins returns, we will have this lineup."

"I haven't finished speaking yet."

KD looked serious, looked at Westbrook, and shook his head: "Moreover, the three 2m players all have strong switching defense capabilities, can defend smaller players with bigger ones, and can expand their defense range to outside the three-point line."

Westbrook frowned and thought for a moment.

moment.

He understood what Durant meant.

"You mean..."

"You want Wang Yan to join us?!"

Three players who are 2 meters tall can all defend beyond the three-point line.

Isn't it about Ibaka + Durant + Wang Yan?

Although Ibaka's defensive ability is slightly inferior when he switches to the three-point line.

But compared to most 2-meter players in the league, he is already quite good.

Plus Durant + Wang Yan!
Gee...

This defensive effect.

It’s unimaginable!
"It covers the sky and the sun, and is everywhere!"

Westbrook said: "I can't imagine who can get 30+ in this defensive lineup!"

"I think we should call Manager Presti."

Durant's eyes were firm.

"Wang Yan is a hundred times better than Kendrick Perkins!"
