Chapter 005 Old Thunder Three Young Masters
“There's something about the way,The street looks when it's just rained~!”
"Russell, I swear to God that your singing level is not as good as your three-pointer." Kevin Durant looked at Russell Westbrook next to him with contempt. He hoped that the latter would stop his personal impromptu concert.
"Hey, Kevin, this is Taylor's new song. As her number one fan, I have an obligation to promote her new song. Besides, I haven't adapted to the NBA's three-point line yet!" Westbrook took off his headphones. Although he strongly defended himself, he still stopped his personal impromptu concert.
"I heard that Black Griffin of the University of Oklahoma can jump from the free throw line and dunk him. People describe him as a white Warcraft." Jeff Green didn't want the two to have an argument, after all, these two people can easily abuse him in one-on-one.
"When it comes to dunks, I haven't met an opponent yet. Kevin, you can give me a few more rebounds in each game. If you can take the ball the moment I pass the ball, I can have a few more assists, so I have a great chance to complete a triple-double." Westbrook's obsession with triple-double surpasses that of ordinary players.
Kevin Durant waved his hand, "I hope you have less brainless offense, but the coach also said that this year we focus on training, so you can pass the ball to me in the subsequent games and I will shoot."
Seeing Durant agreeing to his request, Westbrook waved his fist excitedly and selectively forgot the first half of Durant's words.
Since the Supersonics moved to Oklahoma, they have changed their name to the Thunder, and their general manager Presti also started his fantasy draft journey like a cheat. In 2007, they selected Kevin Durant at the second pick in the first round and insisted that Durant attack like a small forward. They gave Durant a whole season to adapt to the pace of the NBA by hitting irons. You should know that Durant is still growing after entering the NBA. Someone once suggested that Durant play in the inside, but in Presti's opinion, that was simply a waste of Durant's talent.
He has the speed of a defender and the wingspan and height of an inside line, which is simply the perfect future warrior.
In the second year, the Thunder got his wish and chose Russell Westbrook, who was in the fourth pick in the first round. When the Heat were complacent to choose big shots for themselves, Michael Beasley and the Timberwolves were happy to be able to choose OJ Mayo in the third pick, Presti was also glad, so the Thunder decided to continue to level up, but this time he joined Westbrook, and the two made a banging iron. Perhaps this is how the Thunder's insiders cultivated the ability to grab the frontcourt rebounds in the future...
Because of the bad performance, the Thunder had a great chance of winning the No. 1 pick in 2009. For Oklahoma fans, after the team selected two talented outside players in a row, they naturally hoped that the team would be favored by God and choose a talented inside player in the third year.
The candidate, of course, was Blake Griffin, who grew up in Oklahoma and was famous in Oklahoma.
It would be so pleasant to think that these three people formed the Thunder's future lineup framework.
Today is the NCAA game between the University of Oklahoma and the Wildcats at home, and it coincides with the rest day. The Thunder's third-team Durant, Westbrook and Green are also watching the game together.
Yes, this is the old version of the third young master. Jeff Green once once focused on training one of the players Presti focused on training. Unfortunately, the upper limit is too low, but even if the upper limit is too low, Jeff Green also had a pretty good NBA experience after leaving the Thunder.
"Davidson Wildcats, are they the team that has Stephen Curry?" Kevin Durant said curiously.
"One JJ Redick is just another." Russell Westbrook is not interested in Curry. He is more looking forward to Blake Griffin's performance. He likes dunks, and of course he also prefers players with the same physical fitness. However, Westbrook will probably forget about it one day in the future. In fact, he really knows Curry early...
Durant is full of interest in Curry because he has heard of Curry's crazy performance in the NCAA in March this year. JJ Redick can't do that. Recently, Presti has been letting Durant practice three-pointers, and Durant also thinks that three-pointers are much more cost-effective than two-pointers.
Jeff Green could only study with the prince. He followed the two of them into the venue. After entering the venue, the three of them attracted some cheers from Thunder fans, but they were not the protagonists of today's game.
Amid the fans' roars and applause, Blake Griffin, the star of Oklahoma Speed Team, made a debut. With a strong body and obvious muscle lines, Reggie Miller, who was responsible for explaining this game, asserted that this guy was already in the NBA.
White Warcraft is a favorite name for Griffin. You should know that during this period, Howard, who was called Warcraft, could be exchanged for LeBron James alone.
"Well, he's so cool. I hope we can pick him next year. Look, Kevin, the altitude of the air relay he warms up, I can have at least five more assists per game!" Russell Westbrook cheered.
Durant buried his head. He actually didn't like Westbrook's personality and style of play, but sometimes Westbrook's explosive scores can still enhance the team's morale.
"Strange, didn't you say that there were no big men in Davidson Academy before?" Jeff Green glanced at the Wildcats and suddenly found that there was a seven-foot-long man in the Wildcats.
"Asian?" Durant took the gum handed over by Green.
"Not every Asian is Yao, and look at his thin little body, oh my god, I'm really worried that I'll cry him." Westbrook said.
Stephen Curry made 15 consecutive three-pointers in the warm-up, which also attracted Durant's complaints about Westbrook, "I'd love if you could have half his shooting percentage."
"Oh no, Kevin, no dunk can ignite the whole game with a three-pointer!" Westbrook became more and more disliked by the thin guard. In fact, Curry was about the same height as Westbrook, but Westbrook looked like a giant in front of Stephen, because Stephen was really too thin.
At this time, the players of the two teams on the court were warming up. Lin Yi actually discovered the Third Young Master of Thunder as soon as he entered the court. He was a little excited and nervous.
"Lin, don't you make a few three-pointers?" Stephen Curry came to Lin Yi's side.
"Coach McLopp hopes that his opponent doesn't know that I can shoot three-pointers. Don't worry, I have already practiced 100 more goals when I came." Lin Yi said to Stephen Curry.
Stephen Curry looks like I'm looking forward to you. After all, as the boss of the team, Curry is really aggrieved this season.
Dell Curry also came to the scene today. Old Curry knew very well that this was a game that was likely to affect his son's future pick. Curry's draft pick may not be sure to enter the lottery. NBA experts believe that he does not have the physical fitness to play in the NBA, but this weakness has improved a lot after he switched to the point guard.
Unlike Curry who is still worried about entering the NBA, Blake Griffin here generously shows his explosive physical talent to the scouts, commentators and fans.
"Blake, the Wildcats have an extra seven-foot man," Oklahoma's assistant coach reminded.
Blake Griffin glanced at Lin Yi and smiled: "Don't worry, just his body, I can beat ten at one."
