226 The last battle!

In fact, what Zhang Chen said in front of the reporter was still said in a more fair manner. His own spearhead was only pointing at the more annoying Los Angeles Post, but this sentence became a kind of Zhang Chen's declaration of war on Durant in the ears of reporters, and the big guy did not release it. Abandoned this opportunity that caused some disputes, someone informed and immediately told Durant what Zhang Chen said.

In this way, Durant was also a little annoyed. After all, the relationship between him and Zhang Chen was quite good during the All-Star Game rookie challenge. Moreover, they fought side by side to solve the unbeatable second-grade team, which should have been a witness to the friendship between the two. Durant naturally listened to many discussions between him and Zhang Chen during this period, but he has never held a grudge against Zhang Chen, because he knew that Zhang Chen, like him, wanted to avoid it effectively. However, now I heard Zhang Chen's words similar to the declaration of war. After all, everyone is about 20 years old, and they immediately became angry when they heard this sentence.

Fortunately, his agent's assistant happened to be by his side and quietly told Durant what Zhang Chen had just said about the challenge. Durant was not brain-damaged. Naturally, he could think that Zhang Chen was only against the Los Angeles Post and did not stand to fight to the end with him. Durant was glad that he didn't have time to be impulsive just now. Otherwise, he might have a big feud with Zhang Chen today. This hatred is difficult to resolve.

"Kevin... In the face of Zhang Chen's arrogant provocation... What are you going to respond to him?"

Durant smiled and said, "I still have my own judgment whether it is provocative or not. In fact, I know Zhang Chen, and I also know that he is a very good player. Although the public always likes to compare me with him many times, in fact, we are good friends in private." After saying this, the reporters below also understood that they could not take any trouble in this matter.

And the assistant next to Zhang Chen also told him what Durant said. Zhang Chen's good impression of this guy also increased a lot, and he did not want to add an enemy. In fact, he and Durant had a good relationship in the side-by-side battle with Durant at that time.

So, a reporter asked Zhang Chen, "Mr. Zhang, are you provoking Durant?" At that time, Zhang Chen did not have any irritating behavior, but said, "No, this is not a provocation... In fact, there is no way to avoid the battle between us. You know that the NBA can only have a real champion in the end... But I also want to say that Kevin and I are actually good friends, and we all hope We can have a good relationship with each other, but we also hope that our friendship can survive.

The two people's rather loving speeches made the reporters can only return, but they still tried their best to find some aspects to provoke the relationship between Zhang Chen and Durant, but they were all resolved by Zhang Chen. The game will officially start soon after these episodes. When he was warming up, Zhang Chen saw Durant and walked over. After all, when Durant just faced Zhang Chen's provocative words, his first choice was not to be his enemy, which made Zhang Chen feel that he had to say hello.

"Hey, Kevin... Long time no see." Zhang Chen said to Durant with a smile.

Durant also gave Zhang Chen a smile and said, "Yes, after all, it is not easy to meet a man from all over the world in the huge United States, and we all have our own jobs." In fact, while Durant just said more harmonious words, he also secretly made up his mind that if Zhang Chen ignores his goodwill and still insists on challenging himself, it can't be said that he will really start to fight against Zhang Chen... In fact, he knows that the two guys of the golden generation in 2003 are against Zhang Chen. Hate to the bone, such as James Wade, so he is not worried that he will not have allies in the future.

However, Zhang Chen's attitude is indeed quite friendly, which can also be heard from his current words. Zhang Chen is now talking to him with a smile and has no intention of becoming a life-and-death enemy with him.

In fact, Durant is still quite envious of Zhang Chen. As soon as this guy entered the league, he completely appeared in people's eyes with a few kills, and then his high hit rate and high score quickly shocked the world. In the following time, Zhang Chen defeated his opponent in the rookie challenge and scored 42 points. He created an unprecedented 30-point full score and won the championship in the three-point long-distance shot competition, which also made him truly become the king of rookie.

It's much more difficult than Durant. Although he got most of the ball rights of Supersonic as soon as he entered Supersonic, their team can only reflect on itself in a painful failure. They have no hope of entering the playoffs this season, but the Suns can show themselves in the playoffs with their first record in the West.

Moreover, Zhang Chen's anti-sky hit rate also made him feel incredible. Zhang Chen's hit rate is simply fatal, at least Durant can't imagine it.

"Okay... Kevin... Anyway, I'm sorry to say that I will do my best in this game." Zhang Chen said to Durant after quarreling with Durant for a long time.

Durant also smiled and said, "Yes... But what I want to say is that I will do my best... I think we will all have a fight with all our best... I don't want to leave too many regrets in my rookie season."

"So do I." Zhang Chen smiled, and then turned back to his team's locker room to welcome the beginning of the official game.

Durant looked at Zhang Chen's back and suddenly had a hunch that he was going to face a big battle today.

After coming out of the locker room, the game will officially begin.

However, what makes everyone a little disappointed is that today's duel was not taken for granted at the beginning of Zhang Chen and Durant. At the beginning, standing in front of Zhang Chen was a good player of the Supersonics: Damien? Wilkins. This guy is also looking at Zhang Chen with a novel eye. It is not the first time that he and Zhang Chen Suns have met this season, but the last time they played against the Suns, Zhang Chen was just a young player who can only run and shoot. But now Zhang Chen's soaring score and popularity are reminding him that he has become the best rookie, at least the best rookie in scoring.

So, Wilkins is still a little curious about Zhang Chen.

At the beginning of the jump ball, the first ball flew to Nash's hand. Nash saw that the supersonic defense was relatively fast, so he was not in a hurry, but slowly controlled the ball through the half and was ready to start organizing this attack.

The retreat of the Supersonics was relatively timely. They blocked the Suns' forward route in time, and Wilkins also began to defend Zhang Chen according to the coach's instructions.

Over the past few days, the coaches of the league have also conducted a lot of technical research on Zhang Chen because of Zhang Chen's more and more popular. Finally, they found that the only breakthrough to prevent Zhang Chen is Zhang Chen's physical fitness and his ball control skills! These two items are Zhang Chen's weakness.

We can always see some of the domineering breakthroughs of Kobe and Wade James. They pierce the inside crazily, their speed catches up with the wind and the moon, and they move forward. Then, in the face of the opponent's defense, if the number of people is small, they will occasionally choose to make a tough confrontation, especially James, who likes it the most. Compared with Kobe's tossing and turning in the air and dancing with the wind, James's breakthrough is a kind of strong domineering. The opponent is often beaten to the bottom of his strong physical fitness.

This is the role of physical fitness in the breakthrough, and Zhang Chen's breakthrough is undoubtedly much more difficult than them. Zhang Chen's breakthrough mostly depends on his own speed, so his breakthrough needs the most appropriate grasp of the timing. At the same time, his breakthrough also needs to solve the battle in a short moment, and if the opponent's defensive player hits him, his breakthrough will probably take advantage of the wind.

Therefore, Zhang Chen's breakthrough is quite difficult. Although he has a nine-level speed, he has not made many breakthroughs in history in a game. Because the coaches of the league have lined up according to Zhang Chen's characteristics and prepared a pocket for him to drill in. Their defense strategy for Zhang Chen is to hit him and steal at the same time. It is best to block Zhang Chen's breakthrough route. For Zhang Chen's shooting, they have also come up with a lot of restrictions, the most important of which is to reduce his activity space as much as possible so that he can't get rid of the troubles of defensive players.

This is also the reason why although Zhang Chen's speed has exceeded level 9 recently, and his shooting has exceeded more than a dozen, but his average score per game has not reached 30 points. The NBA is such a league with a relatively complete system. At the beginning of this season, Yi Jianlian was famous for the league, which was quite popular, but the coaches found to restrain him. After the method of physical fitness, there is nothing Yi Jianlian can do. Therefore, the league coaches also tried their best to suppress Zhang Chen's guiding ideology, but Zhang Chen is not Yi Jianlian after all. After Zhang Chen's shooting level reached level 10, although the opponent tried his best to contain him, he could still find the right way. In addition, his perfect combination of nine-level speed and ten-level running position often makes his opponent helpless.

Nash wincing at Zhang Chen and was ready to cooperate with him, so Zhang Chen began to run and left Wilkins in an instant. Wilkins naturally knew that the boy's running position was quite elusive, so he had been following Zhang Chen and didn't let Zhang Chen escape like this. However, what he didn't expect was that Zhang Chen's speed had reached the legendary ninth-level middle level. Although he had worked quite hard, it was still useless in front of Zhang Chen. Wu's land.

After using two consecutive running fake moves, Zhang Chen quickly came to the left side of the penalty line, and then he had changed his direction and cut directly into the inner line. Supersonics did not have too many defensive players in this position on the inside line, and the guy they should have defended here was taken away by Marion.

Zhang Chen had already captured this opportunity, so his air-cutting speed instantly became the peak of level 9, which made Wilkins, who had already felt that he had hope to prevent Zhang Chen, had to look at the ocean and sigh, but at this time, another guy reflected that was Durant. Durant felt that something was wrong when he saw Zhang Chen quickly cut it off. He quickly turned his body to meet the enemy. Zhang Chen also saw Durant's response in the way forward, so he accelerated and began to use another running fake action.

So, in Durant's eyes, Zhang Chen quickly came to the bottom of the basket, but suddenly moved towards the other side of the basket. It looked really incredible. It was estimated that this guy still had some plan to let Nash in the empty inside line, so Durant was a little vigilant and focused on just now. The direction I expected has shifted a little.

At this time, Zhang Chen, who seemed to run out, suddenly accelerated and rushed in again. For a while, Durant was too late to defend. Nash's empty but extremely accurate pass that day also appeared steadily in Zhang Chen's hands at this moment. Zhang Chen jumped high, mastered the ball in the sky, and then directly dunked the basketball into the basket.

It's just that Zhang Chen was also sniped by the other party's center when he forcibly dunked. Although the dunk was successful, the power on the other party also made Zhang Chen unable to eat and walk. There was a rather dull feeling in his chest. For a moment, Zhang Chen could not control his body and his hands were separated from the basket. Basket, fly back backwards.

This is the home court of the Suns. Just as Zhang Chen and Nash completed an air relay, the audience began to cheer one after another. The first ball was such a high-tech air relay, which made them feel more realistic and excited.

However, Zhang Chen was hit on the shoulder by the other party. Suddenly, he couldn't control it and fell from the air. Fortunately, Xiao Si reacted in time and just let Zhang Chen lie in his arms. However, Zhang Chen also felt a little ashamed. Anyway, his physical fitness is not enough.

Feeling the feeling from Xiao Si's body, Zhang Chen immediately ran away. Although lying in a man's arms was just an accident, it always made Zhang Chen feel strange.

Durant looked at Zhang Chen, who succeeded in dunking, and hummed gently. Just now, when he thought he could defend Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen suddenly changed his move, which caught him off guard a little. After Zhang Chen changed his move, his inference was also completely wrong, which made Zhang Chen have the opportunity to take advantage of a fake move. Durant is still a little flustered now, but he also has to admire Zhang Chen's on-the-spot adaptability, especially his difficult-to-defense running fake action, which makes him feel a little impressed.

Zhang Chen's air relay still ushered in Nash's appreciation: "I think our cooperation is getting more and more tacit... This air relay is quite good... Of course, it will be more perfect if you don't fall off the basket." Nash said this cunningly, but there was a smile in his eyes.

Zhang Chen was depressed and returned to half-time to participate in defense. He had also played against Wilkins before. He knew that although this guy said that the average score per game was not too high, if he let him go, he would occasionally throw a few regrettable balls. Zhang Chen did not dare to relax him, although he knew his defensive skills. Not very good, but Zhang Chen still works hard to follow Wilkins.

And the opponent's point guard quickly passed the basketball to Durant after controlling the ball. Durant's current position is near the free throw line, and the person who defends him is Bell with good defensive skills. Bell's defensive skills are not bad, so he has also caused some trouble to Durant, at least Durant is still in the stage of holding with him.

Although Durant also began to accept the baptism of the real NBA, seeing Zhang Chen's quite wonderful air relay just now, he did not intend to make Zhang Chen win the lottery so obscurely, and he himself wanted to win first.

In the face of Bell's defense, Durant began to make a long-term plan. He is not very good at using his height and arm span advantages to play back singles. His more offensive method is still his shooting, and his shooting is also quite accurate. Of course, it can't be compared with Zhang Chen.

Durant's physical speed is not too good, and the slam dunk after the breakthrough does not give people the blood boiling feeling of slam dunks like James or Wade. After all, his bounce is not too top. Therefore, this also causes his technical characteristics to focus on shooting. The two best rookies this year, their main scoring methods are jump shots.

Durant saw that the ball could not break through. At present, he put away his basketball, and then made two fake moves to break through. When the opponent reacted a little, he suddenly jumped high, raised the basketball over his head, and then jumped and threw.

Bell's Sao O is already a little inferior to Durant, especially the other party is a super gibbon with a 223cm arm span. He can't defend this sudden jump shot, so he can only helplessly watch the basket fly over his head and plunge into the net.

Zhang Chen hit with an air relay dunk at the beginning, while Durant used a two-point jump shot with color... It seems that this game will be quite good! Many people have this idea in their hearts.

And Durant also smiled at Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen could read the meaning of this guy's smile. In Los Angeles, far away from the other side of the United States, Brand, the reporter who wrote an article in the Los Angeles Post that bombarded Zhang Chen, was staring nervously at the TV screen. Seeing Durant's jumper, he raised his arms and shouted, "Kevin, I believe you will make it... Teach the soft egg from China a lesson... Let him know what to do. It's called the best rookie! Let him understand that his so-called air relay is just a pair of shit!"

Brand had an obscene smile on his face, and several colleagues next to him were also watching TV with him, agreeing one by one: "That Chinese boy is just a soft egg... He is not as fascinating as Kevin."
