It is as unrealistic to count on Tabit to defend Li Xing as it is to count on Banyani to defend Durant.

Before Tabit came on the field, the Thunder's strategy worked.

They led the Raptors by 8 points, and then, after Ibaka was replaced due to emotional problems, the situation suddenly changed.

Li Xing turned over and jumped into Tabit's jump shot.

Westbrook didn't believe it and went in to find a cap.

In turn, Li Xing caught the ball from the pick-and-roll and scored another three-pointer.

In this way, 5 points were recovered inside and outside.

Durant couldn't stand it anymore and shouted softly: "How dare Italian dogs guard against me?"

He hit a three-pointer above Banyani's head, and was extremely arrogant, proving that he was not a little black-faced hiding behind Harden and Westbrook to enjoy the cooldown.

At this point, the score difference is at 5 points.

It was time, and Li Xing was replaced.

Li Xing and Banyani ended together.

"Nani, your personality has collapsed, do you know?"

Li Xing muttered in Banyani's ear.

"Is there such a thing?" Banyani was shocked, "Why don't I know?"

"Everyone thought you would get angry when you met the Thunder, but that's not true." Li Xing said, "You didn't get angry tonight."

Banyani said: "They played so well and only won 5 points. Is this wrong? "

Banyani now scored 5 points, which is simply unqualified compared to his previous performance against the Thunder.

Looking back, Durant's score was also 5 points.

If Durant knew about this, he might be so angry that he would play 2 points and make a fury triple.

The Raptors played poorly in the last period of the first quarter and the beginning of the second quarter.

The Thunder's wings, especially Durant and Harden's substitutes, performed extremely well.

The Thunder have been silently collecting wings who can shoot but don't play much time, Cook, such as Hayward who closed last season. Although their fixed-point shooting and non-open shooting feel completely different, this does not hinder the Thunder (Thunder management)'s love for them at all.

After the Thunder Third Young Master replaced two of them, the group fired on both wings as Westbrook's five-star salute group.

Stephenson met himself, who is known as a comprehensive enhanced version of himself.

Westbrook is extremely fierce. Li Xing was not present for the time he was alone.

Others on the field, opponents and teammates are just foils for this SOLO, and he is the only superstar.

When he tore Stephenson's defense for the third time, he broke through and passed the ball and made a three-pointer for Sovlosa, the difference reached 13 points.

"We want Rachi~!"

The audience at the scene shouted angrily, saying that they could not tolerate their opponents to pull the score apart.

Only three minutes have passed, and Li Xing usually takes a break until seven or six minutes in the second quarter.

Do you want to exchange Li Xing back in advance?

Snyder pondered this matter carefully.

There seems to be nothing to hesitate. The team is facing a trap, and the best choice for Li Xing to come back.

Then, Will Barton's wonderful performance dispelled Snyder's confusion.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is a villain. Patton attacked with the ball, broke Sovlosa's defense, and a sudden brake avoided the defense and made a layup.

This goal stabilized the situation, and the whole Raptors team was full of morale and defended against the Thunder.

Stephenson also noticed that Patton was about to explode and fed the ball as soon as the halfway point was over.

"Okay, let's go back to the game." How could Angus give him the chance to shake out the glorious draft history of the detonator, and just skip it.

When Li Xing walked on the court, they still didn't replace Ibaka.

The Thunder really don’t have many inside players. This time it’s not Tabit or Cole Aldridge, but Kendrick Perkins.

Li Xing fought with this person many times, and basically saw the rhythm of bursting every time.

But there is no doubt that he is indeed capable.

However, his style is too old compared to the NBA that is increasingly talking about space and rhythm.

Perkins' tactical role on the Thunder now is only: stuck in the position and not let people enter the penalty area; those who enter the penalty area will use various means to push them out. He can also grab defensive rebounds and occasionally block an attack, but not too many.

He is a malicious player. Like KG, he will be shady and take things seriously. He will involve things like basketball and rise into hatred, and then stand on the court and show his face: "I'm not playing games with you! I'm in a bad mood!"

Any team needs a villain, black-faced, infusing hatred and blood to force the whole team to maintain their hunger for victory. This is what Perkins really indispensable to the Thunder.

The difference between him and Garnett is that Garnett has a dark face and can still curse you in different ways when it’s time to curse.

But can you expect Perkins to curse? At most, you can only notice a trace of "He seems to be scolding me?" on his face.

The combination of Durant and Harden seems to be better than the combination of Durant and Westbrook.

Harden is efficient and is a player who doesn't like to perform inefficient offenses.

This is completely opposite to Westbrook, and he also has the awareness to drive his teammates.

After seeing Durant ask for the ball, his ball will pass quickly.

Middleton came out to defend Durant, and the two were not on the same scale.

Durant easily broke Middleton's defense, showing his offensive method of striving for excellence with a middle distance.

Last season's playoffs let the Raptors know that their wing groups must have talent and be established, and they must accumulate enough depth and thickness without superstars.

So they did not hesitate to send Tony Allen away, let DeRozan play his favorite second position, and then push Middleton to the start to see how much this young man who was highly expected by Li Xing can play.

Middleton did not disappoint, his shooting technique was exactly the shortage of the Raptors.

Although his defense is not good, it is not without room for improvement.

Li Xing liked his confidence very much. Both of them were present at the same time, and he took the initiative to cover the latter.

Durant's ribs were hard to pass through him. Seeing Middleton grab the ball from the outside, Sovlosa's defense was pressed on.

Middleton was in an excellent state. The moment he got the ball, he ignored Sovlosa, who was so close to him, and shot as soon as he pulled up.

Sovlosa knocked him down in the air.

A whistle sounded.

Middleton made a three-pointer.

"Chris scored four!"

Angus called out: "This young man is fearless!"
