Chapter 585 Joining forces to conjecture and stir up the alliance
After arriving in Goose City, Durant took the initiative to invite Qin Yang to have dinner.
nobody else.
This is a little gay, but Qin Yang still came as promised.
The first time he saw Qin Yang, Durant complained: "This game, I guess you guys won again!"
Qin Yang laughed.
Durant also smiled: "Bruce, I think Goose City's luck is too bad. They traded Harden for 200 million US dollars, and then Russell was injured again. It will be difficult for the team to win the championship this year!"
It's no wonder Durant said that, the Thunder's draft is no problem, but the next operation is very painful.
James Harden originally wanted to stay in Goose City, but because of the annual salary gap of 200 million, Goose City was unwilling to give it.
As a result, James Harden went to the Rockets and got a big contract far surpassing the Thunder.
And now that the strength of the Thunder team has just stabilized, Russell Westbrook was injured. As a result, the Thunder team's lineup declined again.
No wonder Durant is not depressed.
But after Qin Yang ordered a cup of tea, he shrugged:
"Kevin, in my opinion, Russell's injury is a good thing for you, otherwise your performance in the team would definitely not be as good as it is now. And... you will have conflicts sooner or later. He wants to be the boss of the team. Can you step back?"
Kevin Durant was silent for a while before saying:
"If I can win the championship, I can accept it."
"But with Westbrook around, it's very difficult for the team to win the championship. In other words, finding a few good point guards in the league is more suitable for you than Russell, but the Thunder uniform team obviously didn't take this into consideration."
Qin Yang was not polite at all.
At the beginning, Qin Yang's suggestion to Durant was to put pressure on the team, and then trade Westbrook and keep James Harden.
It's a pity that Durant was unwilling to do this, and James Harden left as a result.
This season, when Westbrook was there, the Thunder were not very strong.
The strength of the Thunder team is more like an impression. If the lineup is strong, the strength will be strong. The Clippers are somewhat similar.
If you really want to say strong, the Spurs, Mavericks, and Nuggets are really strong.
Durant didn't know how to answer.
Durant is also worried about Russell Westbrook's problem, but after all, Westbrook has good statistics and is very famous in the league. It is difficult to find a teammate who is stronger than Westbrook.
Goose City is the best choice for Durant.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about Westbrook, you can't win anyway." Qin Yang complained and began to talk about other things.
Although Durant is a bit weird, he likes the bath water with Scarlett Johansson.
But in other respects, Durant is really good.
For example, Durant has already started investing.
Unlike other black players who spend a lot of money, Durant is more restrained, and all the saved money is used for investment.
Although most of the Silicon Valley start-up companies that invested in died, I made a small profit by buying Apple stocks or something.
Durant couldn't get enough of it.
After chatting for more than an hour, the two left.
No one noticed that a hidden reporter next to them took photos of the restaurant near the two of them.
As a result, on the second day, the cover of the front page of U.S. Weekly put a picture of the meeting between the two:
"Durant defected to Dallas, the strongest duo in history was born?"
This news headline is really sensational.
Durant is leaving?
Qin Yang and Durant join forces?
Us Weekly deserves to be the largest gossip media in the United States. It dares to edit anything.If you look carefully, when the teams in the league play away games, more than half of the superstars will have a meal in private, and even two teams will have dinner together.
This is the practice of most superstars.
If this is plotting a transfer, it would be too nonsense!
The next day, before the match, Qin Yang was asked such a question.
But Qin Yang behaved very flatly. He didn't refute or admit it. He just said: "Basketball is round. There are infinite possibilities in the future. Maybe one day we will really play together. I think Durant is one of the most suitable players in the league to partner with me."
"But we didn't go to discuss any transfer yesterday, and we will still be opponents next."
Qin Yang's words caused an uproar.
The media frantically reported the first half of the sentence, but no one cares about the second half of the sentence.
Even before the game started, it was all news about Qin Yang and Durant teaming up.
Before the game, Durant found Qin Yang with a depressed expression on his face: "Bruce, you are hurting me by saying that!"
Qin Yang shrugged:
"I'm just telling the truth, they reported half of it, after all...maybe we will really play together in the future?"
Durant stopped talking, expressing his acquiescence.
There are trends in many things in the league.
James is still in the Heat this year, but according to observations among players, James is likely to return to the Cavaliers next year.
The Heat's strength has slowly declined.
The Cavaliers have Kelly Irving, plus other draft picks and players, they can trade to get a superstar.
In this way, after James joined, the Big Three were formed.
The Big Three at their peak.
Such a trend can be seen from this year's All-Star Game. James' overtures to Kelly Irving are simply fruitless.
Acting like you are my little brother.
How could Kyrie Irving stand such torture.
Durant felt a little panicked. In this way, the Thunder won the championship is nowhere in sight.
The game starts soon.
The Thunder started, Durant, Ibaka, Reggie Jackson, Robertson, Adams.
Adams has finally become a starter recently. His strength is very strong. His rebounding and frame protection ability ranks at least in the top [-] in the league, and there is a lot of room for improvement, and Adams is willing to do dirty work.
With this lineup, Qin Yang thought it would be difficult to play.
The two teams must fight for at least three quarters to decide the winner.
But in the middle of the game, the Thunder were in a shambles.
Durant was a little restless. When thinking about the future of the team, he was considering whether to win the championship with Qin Yang in the future.
Coupled with Corey Brewer's defense today, Durant is in poor form.
Ibaka is also very embarrassing. The three Thunder players who were once as famous as Durant and Westbrook have declined rapidly this season.
Last season, Ibaka forcibly played closed after pulling up his calf.
After that, the state declined greatly. Although he is still an excellent 3D player inside, Ibaka's strength is obviously much worse than before.
Inside, Ibaka can no longer let go of Al Jefferson.
Adams was too young to do anything about Al Jefferson.
In the first quarter, the Mavericks relied on their absolute strength inside and outside to take the lead easily.Qin Yang scored 6 points and 2 assists, which seemed a bit of a stretch.
In the second quarter, the team played happily off the bench.
After Corey Brewer scored 52 points, his playing time increased significantly, playing about 10 minutes per game.
Thirty and 10 minutes may not seem long, but the Mavericks are all soldiers, and [-] minutes is too rare for many players.
