Chapter 146 Conflict
Author: Different Sparks
"Zhang pointed out, why do you think the Timberwolves put Budinger in the starting position? Could it be that Bennett is injured? But there was no such sign in the previous games."
"This is really unexpected. To be honest, I really can't guess what Chen Dazhuang means. But I think now that the game is going on, every head coach has his own thoughts and ideas. Some things can only be
Only through actual games can we know the effect of such changes. To be honest, Budinger's performance in the Timberwolves this season is still very good. We all know that this is a mental knife. When he is in good condition, he is a killer.
God meets Buddha and kills Buddha. He also collided with Durant in the regular season this season. Maybe Chen Dazhuang took a fancy to this aspect of him and wanted to use it to contain Durant."
"But Durant is not easy to guard. First of all, he has no advantage in height."
"So we can only prove it through competition."
Just as everyone was discussing this change of the Timberwolves, the home starting ceremony also began. Under the leadership of the DJ's shouts, all the Timberwolves fans in the Target Center shouted one by one for the Timberwolves' starting five today.
With the name of the group, the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak in an instant.
Everyone is also looking forward to the start of the game.
Soon after the referee's whistle, the second round of the Western Conference game officially kicked off.
And soon the reason why Chen Dazhuang sent Budinger as the starter was reflected on the court.
The Timberwolves still got the first offense without any surprise. Then, after Oden got the ball with his back, attracting the attention of the Thunder insiders, he passed the ball behind his head to Yi Jianlian who was left open, and then Yi Jianlian passed the ball behind his back.
After connecting the ball, he helped the Timberwolves win the first attack of the game with a one-handed dunk.
Then it was the Thunder's turn to attack, and the two sides almost caused a conflict.
It also made Da Zhuang lament the system's preference for Durant.
It’s not to say how good Budinger’s defense is. The main reason is that he makes Durant very irritated. The most important thing is that this guy is so damned when he sticks to Durant.
Use your hands and mouth together.
His hands were specially used to poke Durant's soft flesh, and he was also cursing and greeting Durant.
I didn't know why Durant was a little irritable, but Budinger immediately made him angry on the first attack. The most important thing is that his shot did not go in.
Under Budinger's interference, Durant's shot hit the frame.
The rebound was collected by Oden, and Budinger seemed to have deliberately passed in front of Durant, and then said provocatively.
"Hey, you weakling, did you learn your shooting skills from your grandma?"
Fortunately, Ibaka was not far away. Seeing Durant, who was already furious, he hurriedly stepped forward and stopped him.
"What the hell do you want to do?" Ibaka said to Budinger while holding Durant.
"Tsk, tsk, a coward is a coward, he will hide behind his teammates."
At this time, Durant's eyes were full of murderous intent. Fortunately, Budinger saw the referee approaching and quickly raised his hands and walked towards the frontcourt. Here, after Rubio received Oden's pass,
The game continues.
It's just that this time the Timberwolves' offense failed to score, but the opportunity had already come out. Middleton took advantage of Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll to get rid of his opponent, and then directly shot a three-pointer from the outside, but it was a pity that the three-pointer
Couldn't score any points.
The Thunder, who turned around and got the backcourt rebound, launched an attack.
This time Durant didn't waste any more opportunities. After receiving the pass from Westbrook, he changed direction after dribbling under his hips to win himself space to shoot, and then scored the ball with a mid-range shot.
After the shot, Durant also looked at Budinger provocatively, but he didn't know that the other party ignored him at all and didn't even look at him. He suddenly became even more angry.
After a few rounds, many people noticed that the atmosphere on the court was not right. To be more precise, Durant's state was not right. This state was not a competitive state. The scoring efficiency was very good, but the mood was just wrong.
What's even more surprising is that Budinger seems to be deliberately targeting Durant.
Da Zhuang on the sidelines has been paying full attention to the game situation on the court.
Seeing Durant on the verge of an explosion on the court, Da Zhuang knew that this explosive barrel might explode at any time.
Sure enough, when the game reached 7 minutes and 48 seconds.
In the Thunder's offensive possession, Durant used the screen of his teammates to temporarily get rid of Budinger, then accelerated towards the basket, and then ignored Yi Jianlian, who was defending, and pulled away as if he was about to dunk.
But he didn't notice that Budinger, who had been thrown away by him, had already caught up with him, and jumped up directly after Durant jumped up. Then Budinger directly raised his right hand high and aimed hard at Durant's hand.
Fan the basketball away.
Bang! Durant felt his hands burning at this moment.
Of course the basketball also fell out.
And he was a little unprepared and staggered a little after landing. After finally regaining his footing, Durant didn't care whether the referee blew the whistle or not, ran directly towards Budinger, and then pushed him hard.
Logically speaking, the smartest thing for Budinger to do at this time is to take advantage of the situation and fall to the ground.
But this guy kept Da Zhuang's plan in mind. His role is to cause trouble, not to commit fouls.
After being supported by his opponent again, Budinger rushed forward and grabbed Durant's neck not to be outdone, but Durant, who had completely exploded here, was also not to be outdone.
Immediately, the referees on the field rushed over, and finally cooperated with the players on both sides to separate the two people, and then quickly checked the video replay just now.
And the penalty was quickly made. Budinger and Durant each received a level 2 malicious offense and were both expelled from the game.
Scott exploded on the sidelines as soon as this penalty was announced.
Suddenly he understood why the guy on the opposite side sent Budinger to start the game. This is so insidious, holy shit! Scott immediately rushed to the referee to protest, and while speaking, he gestured to indicate that it was Buding.
Budinger committed the first foul, but the referee insisted on his decision and told Scott that Budinger had just made a very beautiful block, not a foul.
Now Scott was even more reluctant. Damn it, he kept spraying wildly there. Fortunately, the assistant coach pulled him back in time, because the referee's face had changed, and one penalty had already been sent out. If this was the referee
If the coach is kicked out again, the game will not be played.
A level two malicious act would definitely be unacceptable to Scott, because it is likely to result in an additional suspension.
According to the league's rules, the league will review after the game whether a player is banned for a second-level malicious offense that has no points or one point.
