Chapter 53 Pre-match Interview, Unhappy Westbrook
"Sashiro actually played as a starter!"
"This is unexpected! It seems that the Lakers are really looking forward to Sashiro."
"A rookie starts the game. Even Fultz doesn't get this kind of treatment."
"Haha, it looks like tonight's game will be exciting!"
...
The audience was naturally very happy to see Sashiro's debut.
After all.
We can see Sashiro's performance in the NBA even earlier!
However, on the Thunder side, Westbrook was not very happy.
It can be said that half of the limelight tonight was stolen by Sashiro.
Although he is not petty.
But.
The entire topic of the night was dominated by a rookie who had no honors.
This is always unpleasant!!
I have received so many honors and so many inspirational stories in my career.
Just because you were praised by the media, you get treated like this?
Does this make sense!?
Ingram, who is a teammate of Sashiro, feels unhappy, let alone his opponent!
Isn't this taking me lightly?!
It can be said that everyone has their own thoughts tonight.
Some people expect to see Sashiro's amazing performance, while others hope to give Sashiro a slap in the face and teach this Asian man a lesson!
It is precisely because of this that the atmosphere before the game is even more tense.
Here, seeing his teammate so serious, Carmelo Anthony walked up and patted Westbrook on the shoulder.
Said:
"Hey, don't be so serious. Time will tell whether this guy has the ability or not."
Brother Gua is still a veteran.
He has seen a lot of things like this.
He continued earnestly:
"Besides, basketball isn't all about fighting and killing; just have fun playing it!"
"We won't send anyone to block his bus, will we?"
"Right?"
...
...
Westbrook was stunned.
That's true, but why does it feel weird hearing it from you?
But Westbrook still nodded.
Indeed, things like strength don't come easily.
If Sashiro is really a useless person, then Westbrook will teach him a lesson in this game!
At this time, the players from both sides have finished warming up.
When the starters stayed on the court, Westbrook was right up against Sashiro.
Looking at Sashiro, Westbrook didn't feel at all the dominance that Sashiro should have as an excellent professional player.
A guy like this who seems to have no sense of existence can also be called a genius!?
I absolutely don't agree!
Thinking of this, Westbrook blurted out:
"Hey! Kid!!"
Sashiro looked up: "You called me?"
"Yes, it's you. Boy, I'll let you see what the real NBA is!"
Seeing that Sashiro didn't reply.
Westbrook continued:
"Your previous trick won't work. You have no place here at the level of a university league! Do you understand?!"
Sashiro waited for a while, then said innocently:
"NBA? What's the difference? Aren't they both basketball?"
...
Westbrook smiled.
It seems that Sashiro really doesn't understand how scary the NBA is!
The intensity and physical confrontation here are incomparable to those in college leagues.
This is totally not on the same level!!
No wonder Sashiro doesn't feel pressured; it turns out it's because he simply doesn't understand!
Hehe.
It seems that I need to teach him a lesson.
This scene happened to be captured by the camera on the scene.
It was broadcast directly to the audience present.
"Wow! It seems like this match is really full of tension!"
"Next, maybe our Westbrook will be serious!!"
"Of course! Westbrook looks extra motivated today!"
"Sashiro is really pitiful. He met such a strong opponent in the first game. It seems that the legend of genius will be difficult to continue."
"Well, if we meet other opponents, maybe Sashiro will be able to put in a very impressive performance."
"But unfortunately, he is facing a strong Thunder team and a Westbrook who is firing on all cylinders!!!"
...
Drop!
Accompanied by the sound of the game whistle.
This exciting game has officially begun!!
The referee serves!
Amid the excited cheers of the audience.
The Thunder team here took the lead in the jump ball and gained possession of the ball.
With a "click", the ball was directly passed to the players in the backcourt.
The Thunder, who got the ball, did not rush to attack. Instead, they slowed down.
After passing the ball to Westbrook, everyone slowly moved away.
Westbrook directed his teammates, constantly stretching the lineup and constantly pressing inside with the ball.
Everyone can see it.
Westbrook, is he planning to play one on one!!!
And the one facing him was Sashiro!
"God, Westbrook has already reached the three-point line with the ball."
"Will he choose to shoot a three-pointer?"
"I don't think so. You know, he is facing Sashiro right now. After saying those harsh words just now, I think he is most likely planning to fight Sashiro alone!!"
"Indeed, and seeing that his teammates are also creating space for him, Westbrook may really be going to play one-on-one!"
"Hahaha, Westbrook really shows no mercy to the newcomers!"
"No choice, this is the game! Let's see how Sashiro will respond next."
...
After Westbrook came to the three-point line, he said to Sashiro in front of him:
"you want to see the real game?I will show you!"
"Do you want to see how adults play games? I'll show you right away!"
As he said that, Westbrook did a scissors step.
At this time, Sashiro used Emperor Eye to see what happened next.
Westbrook will directly use a quick breakthrough to cut into the Lakers' inside!
And he also saw through God's eyes that Westbrook was really fast!
In reality, things happened just as he expected.
Westbrook changed gears drastically and took off on the spot.
To be honest, even Sashiro would shake his head when seeing this speed.
Quick!
It's fast indeed!
Even Sashiro saw what was going to happen next in his God's Eye.
But.
Faced with this kind of player who relied solely on physical fitness to crush his opponent, he had no way to deal with it.
In other words, even if Sashiro wanted to step forward to defend, he would still be unable to resist the impact of Westbrook.
There is really no better way if he doesn't use the trial card.
Westbrook accelerated and directly surpassed Sashiro's defense, and Westbrook had not stopped at this time.
Ingram wanted to help defend him in the paint, but things were not that simple.
Westbrook at this time is simply unstoppable!
Westbrook plunged into the inside and faced Ingram's defense with all his strength.
Then he raised his right hand high and scored a dunk!!
