Trae Young bumped into Durant head-to-head, a little angry. Yang was not happy, that momentum was like the little brother mixed some results, and began to lose patience with the finger-pointing of the old big brother. The arc of Durant's mouth was slightly raised - after the game he said, it was my fault, I moved bigger, we were buddies, it was nothing. Of course, Yang will not pay attention to it - just at that moment, as if to say:
"Hey, Miyoshi student, you don't really think you can stand up to me, do you?"
It is difficult to say clearly, whether Durant is open-minded or stingy, his enthusiasm for caring for netizen comments is even hotter than the author of the article, and he is a bit unable to live with himself. But he will also show a sense of pride that is empty. Think about it, Beverley compared to him in that posture, quite a sense of small people against the dragon, and Durant was just laughing, that laugh is more than angry madness.
Today we know that he is not targeting Beverley, and Beverley is not worthy of his targeting. I thought the shot of him dealing cards in the low post and in the elbow zone was a reflection of Kerr's tactical center of gravity. Now that I think about it, Durant's posture is like saying, "OK, I'll try to grind and play with life." This is more or less a competition, but also let Beverly's tenacious image stay in front of the media camera for 2 more games.
"Look, he coaxed Durant out of the game, that's amazing."
Then, the arc of Durant's mouth rose slightly, and his gaze drew a folding line, bouncing from the ceiling to Beverley's brain melon cover, in order to just glance at who was making noise here, and then...
38 points, 33 points, 45 points, 50 points.
That's how Durant approaches the problem, and that little emotion doesn't seem to belong to a historic star like him, or at least not the weird sense of arrogance. This is in stark contrast to Michael Jordan's blindness, or Bryant's cold-blooded ruthlessness.
So, you can understand why his off-court stories are often minus, he, like the author, can't contain those small emotions, and usually, the guys who have the aura of the king, they either have feelings, just don't say it, or just throw a simple harsh word, and then prove that they do what they say. This is clean and crisp, and the onlookers like it, that is, this kind of crispness.
Durant is usually not like this, but Durant can. When he picked up his emotions and decided to prove that you are all stupid, his sense of arrogance took on a different sense of oppression. He has a height of nearly 2 meters 1, with a short neck and slender limbs, which is basically the standard template for a strong outside the stream forward. This template is covered with skillful operation control technology and a historic jump shot feel, which can only be said that the creativity of the basketball god has exhausted all the inspiration in a certain direction.
This gift gives Durant the world's most "empty eyes" description of the pursuit of three points - he must face the defender, smash the face of the raised hand, and then hook the body to admire the hand shape and parabola. If the defender isn't trying to stop him above the free throw line, he'd rather take a few more steps forward, dunk or make a quick stop shot — he's trying to embarrass the defender and make the opponent and everyone who sees it accept the fact:
People are not the same, God's fairness at least in basketball can not be talked about, he, Durant, is more than all sentient beings to get more gifts.
Durant in a suit or overalls doesn't have the aura of a domineering president, but he raises his hand in your face that blow, temperamentally, suppresses the whole field.
Scoring 51 points is a remarkable achievement, and so far this season, only two players have scored high scores above 50. But you will also think that this is not actually Durant - the opponent is only a Pistons who have won 4 games, a bunch of young people have played enthusiastically, Cunningham certainly has a promising future, but Durant usually does not shoot 31 times in front of such an opponent, swallow 42.6% of the round share, but also have to score points, organize, defend a catch - the last time he asked him to grasp everything, or the Bucks led by The Alphabet Brother, that series, the sky is dark.
The Nets have some difficulties, and even if Harden is not at his best, he is still a huge loss for the Nets not to play. Durant knows how he should help the team in Harden's absence. This season, when Harden wasn't on the floor, Durant was able to deliver 10.8 assists per 100 rounds. He and Ade's blocking is not to talk about, the more wonderful posture is that he holds the ball in the elbow zone or in the low position, Mills and Ade cover each other to run out of various changes, Adu as the axis, accurately deal cards - this hand, it is also the last season before he left the Warriors, the most work, his organizational talent has always been online, although there are more mistakes, when necessary, he can take it out.
Durant and Ade can also swap roles, playing a variety of tricks with this set of three people, with Jenn's transfer of the strong and weak side of the transfer station, the Nets can play the offense clearly.
In the first quarter, neither the Nets nor Durant made much effort, and the offense was so smooth that my Dumi friend exclaimed, "If you don't want to take a break." The Pistons rely on Cunningham's three-point support, and the gap between the routine and the Nets' old jianghu seems to be unable to be simply compensated by the talent of the first pick.
But it didn't take long for the Pistons to prove that the Strange Soldiers, hidden in the shadows, had the ability to frighten people. Frank Jackson's best plot of his career is probably mixed into Clarkson, and before that he has to find a way to stabilize his position in the NBA, but he did prove to have the ability to score consecutive points with the feel, and the Nets felt this at the beginning of the second quarter. Sabe Lee is a smaller character, one of the memorable nights of his career to this day, and he makes the weakly capable Mills suffer. Diallo and McCroud took the lead, while Cunningham added fuel to the unknown brethren with a cold but crucial three-pointer.
The momentum intensified in the third quarter, the Vitality of the Pistons was fully ignited by the temptation to beat the first place in the East, and the impulse of the young people turned into a series of steals at this time, and in this quarter alone, they caused the Nets 10 turnovers - which seems to prove that mistakes always have to be sent, Denggo is in Denggo, and Denggo is not there but to change people.
The Pistons aren't a strong team, but they're tougher and tougher than expected, and of course, that's not enough to turn the Nets over. As the Pistons level rises, Durant is also loosening his power limits a little bit to match the impact of youthful vitality:
In the first quarter, he is the dealer, the strategy point, and the hand gets some points;
In the second quarter, Mills and Ade's blocking did not work, Durant began to act as a cover man, the first line participated in the tactics, the elbow area received the ball disappeared, and the low-post ball appeared;
In the third quarter, the pistons' madness made Durant sacrifice his mastery, which is also a familiar term for everyone - "standing stick singles", which includes, well, reduced to a sentence, on Stewart's hundred background board postures.
Stewart, a stout interior with good mobility, can neither interfere with Durant's jump shot nor follow Durant's breakthrough when changing defenses or blocking demolitions, and even if he can follow Durant, he cannot effectively interfere with Durant's next-person layup under the basket. In other people's potential rookies, in Durant, there is not much room for young people to show the most talent.
The Pistons knew that without a squeeze of Stewart, Diallo, and Sadiq Bay, the dude would be ruined by Durant. The Pistons began to pinch Durant, and the fourth brother and Brown picked up Durant's ball and began to punish the opponent, but this scene was not easy to maintain - if the end of the fourth brother and Brown was always reliable, then the Nets' offensive problems would be half less. So Durant needs other ways to solve the pinch, he has the bottom corner of the no-ball cover to avoid the pinch, this move let him go to the free throw line twice, coupled with a signature counterattack to chase the three points, Durant with a "recognize each other's identity" posture, the Pistons' enthusiasm pressed down.
This may not even be durant's most amazing side, and his and Clarkston's change of defense from the end of the third quarter to the end of the fourth quarter completely snuffed out the Pistons' offensive momentum, which is probably a more strategic turning point in this game. This set — the Nets' ace against backcourt-type teams — has been proven in a row, and for this team, it's certainly more reassuring than a constant variable like "you know Durant will always work."
Durant finally closed the game, in a very Durant way — a meter from the three-point line to catch the ball, which is usually not caught in the middle of the game. Then force a break through to the low zone on the right, back-up jumper, clean and clean, without dragging mud and water. He's not the scariest scorer on the planet, and he's coming to different conclusions in different fan groups. But he's not the easiest scorer on the planet to score, and there doesn't seem to be much room for discussion about that.
People always say that the more powerful people are, the more disdainful they are in the eyes of others, and Durant is a counterexample. A guy who can swing extremely in temperament, as if he is always chattering about calculations and defenses, with dissatisfaction and unwillingness in his heart, but he can show his excellence to the world with his actions with unmatched pride. In fact, as long as he steps into the arena and shoots those shots that point to victory, he can calm the noise and noise of the world, so that no matter how dissatisfied the media and fans are, they can justly say "Durant is really bullish X".
The rest of the things, he didn't need to do it himself.
Perhaps, the strength of silence is the best.
