NBA: Be the GOAT starting today!

Chapter 116 All five of you, come at me together!

On the court, after James Harden made the three-pointer, Thunder fans quickly cheered.

In his rookie season, Harden is currently averaging 22 minutes per game off the bench, scoring nearly 10 points efficiently, while also maintaining a 37.5% three-point shooting percentage.

Many media outlets have now referred to Harden as the third option for the Thunder's young team.

After all, compared to Jeff Green, whose talent is mediocre, James Harden has more potential to become a top sixth man.

Harden seemed to get really into it after scoring three points.

In the next round, he also used his sturdy build to defend against Roundface Deng's attack.

When Harden forced James Harden to dribble out of bounds and the ball rolled off the court, Harden didn't yell at Harden, but instead glared at the Clippers' bench on the sidelines.

Zhou Yi sat on the Clippers' bench and watched Harden's glaring performance with great interest.

It seems that ever since he eliminated Harden in the NCAA and beat him up in the rookie training camp in Chicago, this little black fat guy has reignited the flames of revenge.

Seeing that Harden was about to turn the tide for the Clippers, Zhou Yi decisively elbowed Malone.

Then, Malone, understanding the situation perfectly, decisively called a timeout during the Clippers' next offensive possession.

Amidst boos, Zhou Yi returned to the court.

"Compared to Kevin and Russell, James was clearly in much better form tonight. Zhou Yi is back on the court now to lead the bench unit."

On the sidelines, in the TNT commentary booth, Barkley and Kenny were explaining the situation on the court to the viewers in front of their televisions.

When Barkley finished speaking, Kenny, who was standing next to him, nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Yes, then this game will be even more interesting, with Zhou facing off against three outstanding young players from the Thunder."

The game continued, and the Clippers had possession of the ball.

Given the Clippers' current situation, if Zhou Yi comes on to lead the bench lineup, the ball possession will still revolve around Harden, with Zhou Yi serving more as an offensive threat and finisher.

This way, Zhou Yi's offensive threat can be used to create space for other teammates, while also preventing the round-faced Deng, who needs to hold the ball, from having too much trouble.

Therefore, in this offensive possession, the round-faced Deng still holds the ball.

However, when facing Harden, the round-faced Harden, perhaps hampered by future constraints, failed to shake off Harden in two consecutive attempts.

So Harden could only pass the ball to Zhou Yi after the screen, and Harden was switched to face Zhou Yi.

With five seconds left, all eyes were on Zhou Yi and Harden at the three-point line.

"Defense! Defense!"

At that moment, the Thunder fans on the sidelines began to chant in unison, seemingly trying to help their home team in this way.

"A crucial moment for Zhou against Harden!"

On the TNT commentary stage, Barkley and Kenny sat up straight instantly.

If Zhou Yi successfully takes on Harden one-on-one on this play, then the Thunder's Big Three will all be punished by Zhou Yi tonight.

Zhou Yi received the ball at the three-point line without hesitation.

He opted for a direct drive to the basket, and Harden's rather lazy footwork left him instantly behind by Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi, having found a breakthrough path on the left flank, charged straight into the Thunder's restricted area.

Behind him, Harden gritted his teeth and followed, while Jeff Green, who was helping on defense, also bravely stepped forward.

Although somewhat intimidated by Zhou Yi's dunk, Jeff Green still mustered his courage and raised his hands to try and protect the Thunder's basket.

Thunder fans on the sidelines covered their mouths at that moment, wondering if the Thunder's two young players could stop them.

It can be held in accordance with the principles of the I Ching.

Bang! Just a step from the free-throw line, Zhou Yi jumped.

His taut calves were full of bouncy power, and Zhou Yi's body seemed to lose gravity for a moment.

Harden, who was following closely behind, was so shocked by what he saw that he opened his mouth wide.

Even though he had played against Zhou Yi many times, Harden was still impressed by Zhou Yi's amazing jumping ability.

Watching Zhou Yi fly through the air, holding the ball in one hand and flying towards him, Jeff Green was filled with regret at that moment.

But before Jeff Green could even take a step back, Zhou Yi had already shoved the ball into the basket over him.

The moment their bodies collided, a loud "bang" was heard.

Then, the Thunder's brave interior protector, Jeff Green, was directly knocked back a few steps by Zhou Yi and fell onto the ball hoop's protective mat.

"My God! An unparalleled performance! The two young Thunder players were thoroughly ravaged on the court by Zhou Yi."

Seeing this explosive scene on the court, Barkley and Kenny were so shocked that they stood up immediately.

The Thunder fans who had been chanting "defense" from the sidelines stopped their foolish shouts at that moment.

"Oh shit! Zhou is practically a superman."

"James and Jeff are like two innocent children in front of Zhou."

"Is this the top scorer of the 09 class? Fuck, that's amazing."

Along with the fans on the sidelines, Durant and Westbrook on the Thunder's bench were also shocked.

Xiao Shuai's pupils contracted as he stared blankly at Zhou Yi, who had just dunked on him and was now raising his hands in front of the camera.

Westbrook, standing next to Xiao Shuai, almost couldn't help but cheer. For the dunking-loving Westbrook, Zhou Yi, who delivered a spectacular dunk, was like a good brother who had been with him all the way.

After showing off his muscles on the sidelines, Zhou Yi quickly retreated to the backcourt.

Zhou Yi just pursed his lips when he saw Du Wei and his companion still resting on the bench.

We can't let these two rest any longer, or it'll be harder to fight them later.

"Kevin, Russell, your little brothers are too weak. Why don't the four of you come at me together?"

"Oh, and that Spanish guy too, together."

As soon as Zhou Yi finished speaking, Durant and Westbrook stood up from the sidelines.

Both men, enraged, glared at Zhou Yi, their eyes burning with fury.

"Coach, let us both go on the field quickly."

Both of them ran up to Coach Brooks and began to volunteer for the job.

Looking at his two beloved students, Brooks could only curse Zhou Yi inwardly as a cunning little fox.

His original plan was to use Harden, who was in excellent form, to continue the offensive firepower off the bench and conserve energy for Durant and Weidenfeller.

However, the stimulation from the Book of Changes made Dewey and his companion unable to sit still in the audience.

"this.

'

Just as Brooks was about to refuse Durant and Weidenfeller, he saw Zhou Yi block Harden's layup.

It seems that after Zhou Yi entered the game, the Thunder's bench lineup's offensive momentum was firmly suppressed.

Finally, Brooks called a timeout earlier than originally planned.

"The Thunder called a timeout, and Kevin and Russell were substituted into the game."

"Oh look, the three young men from Thunder are staring intently at Zhou Yi."

On the field, Zhou Yi also looked at the Thunder's three young men who were staring intently at him.

This war among the younger generation has only just begun.
