Chapter 292 Mind Explosion!
The Thunder is in the Northwest this season. Currently, with a record of 27 wins and 15 losses, the third in the Eastern Conference. Durant and Westbrook, known as the "Russian City Twins", have great hopes to be selected as All-Stars this year. At least both have played data that match the All-Star players and the team's performance. Durant is even portrayed by local media as the only young star who can compete with Wu Huang.

Wu Huang, the big devil in the eyes of young American players, is about to escape the seal and come to Okrama City today. This will be his comeback after five games banned, and it will also be his second and last time the two teams have fought this season.
The Knicks fought with the Thunder during their 27-game winning streak. The Knicks, who was in their best condition, defeated the Thunder at home without any danger. Now it is the Thunder's turn to face the Knicks in a bad state at home. Okrama City players and fans are ready to take the opportunity to fight the annoying New Yorker, especially the two core leaders of the Thunder. One of them is dedicated to fighting with Wu Huang to score the scoring king, and the other is that they want to defeat Wu Huang at all times.
Westbrook has always had a knot in his heart. It seems that since Emperor Wu entered the NBA, he has never gained a advantage in the fight with this Chinese. They have played three times in the regular season and two All-Star matches. But four of them not only lost the game, but also lost personal data. Only once won the game, but he still lost personal data. In other words, Westbrook has not defeated this lifelong enemy head-on, with a record of O:5.
Wu Huang 5: o leads, and naturally said before the game that he has no pressure. He is in a very good position now. He doesn’t have many black spots in today’s game, no matter whether he wins or loses, but once he wins the game, how will the media report on him after the game? How will fans lick him? Wu Huang himself is embarrassed to think about these issues. He can only say that he and his behind-the-scenes team are too good at managing. Whether it is his image on the court or off-the-scenes, or the manipulation and utilization of public opinion, Wu Huang and his behind-the-scenes team can always maximize his interests, and even negative news can be transformed into factors that are beneficial to him in a timely manner, and will never put him in an embarrassing situation similar to Xiao Si.
"I have been suspended for five games. I am only able to know how I am on the court, but I won't put too much pressure on myself. Just try my best to play away games. I don't need to force myself too much, that will have a counterproductive effect." "I think Russell is a point guard with a terrifying output. He looks like he will explode at any time." "Kevin was the scoring champion last season. He is like a cold-blooded killer. I hope his hands are colder."...
Emperor Wu's words at the conference sounded like praising his opponent at first, but it made people feel uncomfortable after thinking about it carefully! Moreover, when he heard his tone, he seemed to put his opponent in the position of challenger, put his position very high, and then acted as a strong man who didn't matter whether he won or lost.
In short, if he wins the game, he will have a lot of bragging; if he loses, he can perform very casually and decently, just like giving away a victory for his opponent.
Emperor Wu's attitude will make his opponent feel very frustrated. He often feels unhappy if he wins the game, but he can be half angry if he loses the game.
But this is exactly the game mentality that Emperor Wu pursues. He always believes that in a high-level competition, whoever can gain the upper hand in the psychological link first can greatly increase the chance of winning the game.
Although "mindset" is something that cannot be seen or touched, it affects every move and choice of the player at all times. Maybe it cannot be seen in three or two minutes, but if it expands into a game, the mentality will have a great impact on the player, and mentality will often affect other equally important winning elements.
After the pre-match press conference, Wu Huang first went to the locker room to change his clothes and prepared to go to the court to warm up.
Today he did not perform any pre-match speech because he could feel that his teammates were still in a relatively awkward mentality. Media reports and fans’ complaints in the past few days have seriously affected the confidence and emotions of the Knicks players. Their mentality is very complicated, or it is very painful!
Wu Huang's current situation is good, but his teammates have the feeling that they won't be praised even if they win, and they will take the blame completely if they lose.
However, their feelings are real. This is the situation now. Emperor Wu made his situation so good, but the price was to throw all the bad things to his teammates.
But don’t think that this situation is so beautiful. The world is fair. The price you get is going to pay secretly.
This is true for Emperor Wu. Although he is in a good position now, he will not have less troubles to deal with in the game next time.
His teammates are obviously having emotional problems now, so there will definitely be problems in the game later. So the Knicks are really in the worst state. If Wu Huang wants to win, he must play better than before. This is the price he needs to pay. He must lead the team to win the game with his personal ability when his teammates are in poor condition.
In short, no matter what you get in this world, you have to pay the corresponding price. It depends on whether you have the ability to handle these troubles that arise with the harvest. Once you have done so, you are the real winner.
After warming up, Wu Huang returned to the locker room. The game time was getting closer and closer. After the staff invited reporters, Wu Huang could see that his teammates and coaches had a serious expression. This was a tense atmosphere that could only be seen in the playoffs.
Mustache has been criticized by fans and media a lot during this period. If he hadn't known Dolan's plan, he would have taken this opportunity to drive D'Antoni away. But now he agrees with Dolan's plan and believes that Zen masters will indeed have a great chance to come to the Knicks next season, so he will not be in a hurry to drive Mustache away.
D'Antoni is not a fool. He also knows that these games are related to his platoon arrangement. After losing two consecutive games, he failed to withstand the so-called experts' fingers and bombardment. After a moment of confusion, he actually chose to strengthen the defense. Now it seems that this is the main reason for their four-game losing streak. Not all teams are suitable for strengthening the defense. At least the Knicks cannot do this. They can only continue to achieve results by insisting on indomitable attacks.
Today, the Knicks completely abandoned the unnecessary positional battle styles in the previous few games, especially after Emperor Wu returned to the throne, they could play fast-paced without worrying about making too many mistakes.
In the first five games, Alstom, who replaced Wu Huang, had a dribbling skill and was almost never stealing when controlling the ball, but from him, the Knicks' whirlwind rhythmic style, the King of Street Ball was not very suitable. He did not have the spirituality and versatility skills needed in this position, especially in fast passes, he made too many mistakes and was not decisive, and he could not use his breakthrough to attract enough defense.
Today's Knicks' lineup: Wu Huang, Iguodala, Garlinari, Stoudemire, O'Neal.
Thunder team lineup: Westbrook, Sovlosa, Durant, Green, Kostic.
Before the game started, Durant and Westbrook did not say a word to Wu Huang. He is now more famous and has worse popularity. This "Atester" incident has made many black players stand up for the beast. Even now, there are still many celebrity players who publicly support Artest. They do not think there is anything wrong with Mr. Peace's racial discrimination, nor do they think that the trash sayings greeting the other female relatives are vulgar. Why can't they scold this?
At the same time, after copying racial discrimination, some media began a new round of hype. This time, many media believe that some people deliberately tied "discrimination against China" and "discrimination against Asia". The implication is that discrimination against China and discrimination against Asia are completely different in nature. They are different things. The former can discriminate, while the latter cannot do so.
This weird argument has been praised by most people, and it is obvious that smarter people have taken the opportunity to hack China.
In short, the policies to encircle China must not be disrupted, and the actions to discredit China must never be stopped.
After the game started, Sir Jr. grabbed the ball for the Knicks.
Wu Huang, who became very calm today, resolutely broke through Westbrook on the first attack. His throwing at the free throw line made Westbrook and the Thunder's inside line uncomfortable. The basketball drew a beautiful arc and flew directly into the net!
Wu Huang has been summing up his long-distance throwing. He used to like to play boards. This kind of throwing method is rarely used by defenders, because the defender's throwing speed is very fast and he needs to aim very high when playing boards, which will affect the shooting degree. Therefore, 90% of players are directly into the net, and only he chooses to play boards.
He did this because of his high shooting talent, but he would also be able to directly throw and throw the ball into the net. Many times when he needs to take a quicker shot, Wu Huang would adopt this shooting method.
Today, Emperor Wu is very aggressive. In his eyes, does his teammates have psychological problems? That doesn't matter. When he completely defeats the dignity of these guys and completely convinces them, there will be no more nonsense at that time.
Does anyone think that if the Bulls without Jordan lose, these players are all waste? Shouldn’t the Bulls without Jordan lose?
Or, isn't it normal to lose without James?
Therefore, the reason why the Knicks players nowadays have no face-saving ideas is that Wu Huang's influence is still insufficient. These people have not truly accepted Wu Huang's status. This is determined by his skin color and age. Wu Huang is preparing to use this game to completely tell everyone that if I am gone, you are just a bunch of waste. Don't doubt this.
Soon, Westbrook was a little stunned. He had always been the one who had been hitting his opponent with a terrifying impact after the opening. Even though he was at a disadvantage in the past, he did not feel like he was going to be defeated by his opponent. But today it was different. He had just three minutes into the game and he had this feeling. The annoying yellow-skinned monkey made 4 of 4 shots in three minutes, and scored 9 points by himself, forcing the Thunder to request a timeout at the beginning. It's a hell!
In the first quarter, less than three minutes after the game started, Wu Huang had already made 4 of 4 shots. He was alone and scored 9 points without the help of his teammates. Moreover, each goal was a wonderful mid- and long-distance projection. This double impact of visual and psychological is indeed outrageous, so Westbrook, who is not afraid of the world, was a little stimulated.
Today, as soon as Wu Huang entered the court, the Thunder fans at home began to use various discriminatory insults to welcome Wu Huang. The scolding was still fierce at this moment, but these fans looked a little lacking in confidence. Especially when they saw Wu Huang's cold expression, many Thunder fans expressed a little scared.
Emperor Wu's expression has always been very cold today, and almost no smile appears. The "Holy Leader" in this serious mode does look a bit scary. The idiots in front of the TV dare not scream loudly, including his teammates who gradually stopped thinking about those extra things after the opening.
After the game started again, Durant finally scored a three-pointer and tied the score to 5:11.
Wu Huang turned his head and also took action outside the three-point line, but this time it was a pass. O'Neal reached out to receive the basketball under the basket, and his body squeezed and caused a foul by Costic. His rich experience made O'Neal scored 2+1 this time. After O'Pang scored the goal, he screamed and stepped forward to cushion Wu Huang.
The only thing in the Knicks who doesn't take the loss seriously is this fat shark. He doesn't care about the messy things at this age. His historical positioning has basically been established. Unless he wins the championship again before retirement, nothing can affect his status as the top four centers in NBA history.
Wu Huangshen knew this, and he also knew that O'Neal's mentality was actually the best in the team. Although he always complained that he had not made many moves, it was just a complaint. He felt that this fat shark was actually the best to fool the long regular season, and then try to make a fuss in the playoffs. If he was lucky enough to win another championship before retirement, he could make his historical position further and become the top three centers in history, and he would not be given to him by Kobe.
Well, this last point is very important, otherwise such a lazy fat shark would have been retired long ago.
The game continued, and Emperor Wu still attacked continuously. He passed two goals to his teammates when he had a good chance. If he didn't have a good chance, he would attack by himself. Today he played even more Westbrook than Westbrook, and the impact was the same. Westbrook soon felt like a small boat shuttled through the storm, and he would be swallowed by a huge wave at any time.
At 4 minutes and 51 seconds in the first quarter, Wu Huang, who was excited, made an unreasonable shot from two steps outside the three-point line with 20 seconds left in the offensive time.
Westbrook didn't expect Wu Huang to play with him like this. He cursed in his heart and quickly turned around and looked. The basketball just obediently fell into the goal net, and it was actually a hollow ball!
"Can this game still be played?" Westbrook was really stupid for this goal. He completely forgot that he would do this when he was excited about playing, but the difference is that the three-point shooting percentage of the two was 10%.
"19 points!" Emperor Wu did not provoke his opponent when he was proud of himself. This time he just raised his right hand and retreated back with a cold face. By the way, he swept around the Thunder fans who stopped insulting him with his cold eyes. These guys were completely frightened by Emperor Wu's crazy performance. Emperor Wu called out "Waste!"
Scored 19 points in seven minutes, made 7 of 8 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. Such performance is enough to make any opponent feel desperate! But his crazy performance is not over yet. Iguodala cut off Harden's breakthrough on the defensive end, and the Knicks quickly launched their most familiar counterattack...
Wu Huang received the basketball counterattack, and when he reached the front court, he dribbled behind him and got away from Westbrook. Finally, he made a time difference when making a layup, so he tricked Durant into making the move first, and then easily found the layup angle to score the ball.
This breakthrough layup would be very complicated to describe, but in fact it was just a disguised dribble behind the scenes and a layup dodging in the air. However, since it was completed in a flash, it looked like Wu Huang played Durant and Westbrook at one time, which made the entire home fans silent.
"21 points!" Emperor Wu said silently in his heart. Today he didn't care much about the data, but he cared about his performance, so he was counting his own data, motivating himself to continue scoring points and continuing to hit the morale of his opponents.
The Thunder had already started to use double-teams to deal with him, but apart from letting Wu Huang get a few more assists, it seemed useless.
Wu Huang's shooting range is too long, so he can't wait until he starts to break through before double-teaming. It would be too late at that time. But if the double-teaming is too early, it may allow Wu Huang to find his teammates in the open space to give him an assist.
So when will I go to double-team? This time is really too difficult to grasp, and it can only be understood but not expressed in words.
Sovlosa has a good defensive awareness, so his double-teaming is quite timely and can cause a lot of trouble to Emperor Wu, but when Harden comes on the court, Emperor Wu's breakthrough can no longer be limited.
In the first quarter, Westbrook was once again attacked by the Emperor Wu's divine turtle. He had completely blocked Wu's sight, but the basketball was still swept the basket. What else could he do with such a shot? The opponent was like a cheat, and this game was completely unplayable!
After taking a look at Wu Huang, who was too lazy to do after scoring the goal, Westbrook was so angry that he smashed it on the floor!
The referee hesitated for a moment. Considering that he was humiliated continuously, he still did not convict him of a foul. Otherwise, this unsatisfactory move would have given Wu Huang two points for free. Westbrook should have vomited blood!
But when it comes to being angry, Durant should be very angry. Westbrook, who has an explosive mentality, only Wu Huang and his opponent's basket in his eyes, so there are not many other thoughts. This has caused Durant's shots to obviously not keep up with Wu Huang's rhythm. He has only shot 4 goals so far, and the opponent has made 10 shots. How can he win the scoring king?
Wu Huang finally scored 13 shots in the first quarter. Although he has a high ball-holding rate in the team and is also on the scoring list, he is actually the one with extremely low shots among the scoring champions in previous years. He has only 21.3 shots per game, and he can earn 1.5 points on average. This data is also extremely rare among outside players.
The score of the quarter was 39:27, and the Knicks led the Thunder by 12 points.
As you can see from the score, today's Knicks have returned to the team that has poor defense, but it's just a team that has scored more than you. Among them, Wu Huang played the whole quarter, made 11 of 13 shots, 5 of 7 three-pointers, and 5 of 5 free throws. One man scored 32 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists that almost collapsed the Thunder. He broke the 33-point record in a single quarter created by Anthony and "Iceman" Gewen. (To be continued.) 8
