Chapter 384: Come One-on-One

Updated: 2012-09-07

"If you want to be the boss, you have to show your strength." Durant is also the arrogant master. Stephen came to provoke so obviously. Although he felt that he was not Stephen's opponent, he was unwilling to admit defeat.

"Come on one?" Stephen immediately suggested, how to prove his strength? Nothing is more representative than a real sword and gun battle. Stephen has long had the intention to use his strength to prove his status, and at the same time conquer the other party. Even if he can't be a younger brother, it's good to be a helper.

"Okay, what do you mean by winning or losing?" Kevin Durant was also a newborn calf and was not afraid of tigers. He immediately mentioned how to win or lose, without considering that he was just a rookie player who had just come out of the college league, but Stephen had already achieved success.

"I won't bully you. I'll let you rest for ten minutes first. After your physical strength recovers, we will compete. For the sake of your newcomer, I'll let you go. If you advance ten, you will lose. If you only advance five, you will lose. What if you win, you will lose. Whoever wins is the boss." No matter how much people say, they are still a newcomer. Even if Stephen wins, he will be unfair, so Stephen first lets him rest well, and then completely defeat him with twice his number of goals and conquers him.

"Okay, this is what you said. There is no need to rest. Let's start now." Kevin Durant is not a person who is not as good as the old man. When he heard that Stephen was preparing to let him so much, he immediately felt that his hope of victory increased greatly and he didn't care about rest.

"No, I'll let you rest for ten minutes. I won't take advantage of you." Stephen refused to start now. Durant's breathing is not normal now, and sweat is still oozing out of his body. This state is not good. Even if Stephen wins, he will feel disgraceful.

Durant was a little anxious, but he soon woke up. If he really wanted to be one-on-one with the opponent, what would he do if he didn't adjust his condition? This is a matter of determining his own team status. Durant had no extravagant hope. If he won, he would be the boss of the team. However, if he won, the opponent would definitely not dare to regard himself as the boss so much, which could increase his voice.

Durant immediately ran gently on the court. On the one hand, he adjusted his breathing and adjusted his body to the best state. On the other hand, he also carefully observed the court. After finishing all this, Durant tidied up his clothes and shoes and stood in front of Stephen.

He wore a pair of Nike shoes in the Supersonics color scheme, from the Flying Man series, but Stephen knew that before he was selected, he had signed a seven-year, $60 million sneaker endorsement contract with Nike, and even turned down Adidas' seven-year, $70 million contract.

In the amount of money, Durant is second only to LeBron James. This is because Durant became famous as early as high school, and Nike and Adidas also paid attention to him early in the morning. However, since the university league prohibits players from signing commercial contracts, he can only sign commercial contracts after he has determined to participate in the draft.

A contract exceeds all his own contracts. This is the legendary fandom. Stephen was completely unknown before college and was just a defensive defender in college. When the Spurs were on the Spurs, Nike and Adidas did not take him seriously, so Stephen signed Wick Company.

However, in two or three months, Stephen's contract will expire. At that time, Wick will definitely come up with a huge contract, at least not inferior to LeBron and James' seven-year 93 million. This is already the largest amount in the league's sneaker endorsement contract.

Although Kobe's endorsement contract is not as much as him, the commission ratio on each pair of shoes is higher than that of LeBron and James. Stephen is also considering whether his next contract will sign a large endorsement amount or a high commission ratio.

However, Stephen is confident that this contract will be a contract that is no less than anyone else. Of course, coming from the Spurs to Seattle will not help Stephen's commercial development. Although Seattle is slightly bigger than San Antonio, the Supersonics' performance is not very good.

So how big this contract of Stephen can be depends on Stephen's performance and team's performance in the past few months. As Stephen's various endorsement contracts gradually expire, Stephen will sign a large number of new contracts, so this season is also a bumper year for Stephen in his career.

But now we have to deal with the guy in front of us first. To make a big move this season, this is also a necessary step. Stephen learned the true meaning of team basketball in the Spurs and learned that the game is not just a person, and Durant is Ginobili who Stephen is looking for.

"You come first, I'll defend." Stephen picked up a ball from the ground and threw it to Durant. He gave up all the big cheapness. Do you still care about this small advantage? Then he stood in front of Durant in a row, without the tension that was as if he was facing a great enemy.

"Okay." Durant took the ball and his face became solemn. He would not be angry because of Stephen's contempt. He felt that this was a humiliation. With Stephen's current achievements, he was already qualified to treat him like this, and he also hoped that Stephen would be more despised by him.

Durant made a move to change hands from his crotch. Although Stephen did not move, he raised his vigilance in his heart. Durant was six or seven centimeters taller than him, but the dribbling movement just now was more skillful than him. If he was still the same height as before his body was changed, Stephen would have confidence that he would do better than he did, but now it is not possible.

Durant did not move his feet, but his shoulders shook for a moment, making a sudden look towards Stephen's right. However, from his toes and his knees slightly bent, Stephen quickly judged that he would be a step back jump shot, and perhaps he would be a little tilted back, trying to bully Stephen with his height advantage, which also shows that he has no confidence to squeeze into the basket and shoot.

Stephen also shook for a while, as if he had been deceived. While Durant jumped hard at his feet, Stephen also jumped high, and held his right hand high and reached out. Fortunately, Durant's shot did not add a backward tilt. Although he had a huge advantage in height and wingspan, Stephen's hand still touched the ball. Although it was only the lower edge of the team, that was enough.

However, Stephen also felt a stern in his heart. This guy's bounce was also very good, and his shooting point was very high. If his shooting arc was a little higher, Stephen would be powerless. However, if the parabola was high, the shooting percentage would be difficult to grasp. If he still made progress like that, Stephen had no way to do anything.

It was Stephen, who also made a step back shot. Stephen's shot was slightly off because he was not suitable for this training field. However, after the ball hit the ring, it was thrown in. Stephen scored one goal first, but the opponent scored five of them to win, so Stephen could not be considered an advantage.

Durant still shot the same shot, but in order to avoid Stephen's interference, he increased the leaning range. Although Stephen tried his best to jump, he still had no choice but to take advantage of the opponent. The advantage of height and wingspan cannot be compensated by bounce.

Seeing the ball flew into the basket, Durant stretched out an index finger to Stephen. Stephen ignored it. After getting the ball, he pushed Durant behind him with a bully breakthrough, and then it was extremely simple. Just jump up and put the ball into the basket.

Durant shrugged helplessly there. Stephen's strength advantage was too great, and it was also irreparable for height and wingspan. Stephen increased his close force in the next attack, making Durant's jumping not that easy. Although Stephen did not interfere with his shooting, the shot was lost.

"Let you adapt to the league's defense in advance." Stephen explained with a smile. Seeing Durant, Stephen thought of Lewis, who signed a contract worth 100 million yuan this summer. The two of them are similar in height and body shape. Although Lewis does not have the super-human arm span of Durant, both of them are mainly outside projections. Are they as afraid of close-fitting defense as Lewis? Stephen wants to give it a try.

Fortunately, Durant did not feel like he wanted to avoid the close-fitting defense like Lewis. However, under close-fitting defense, his shooting was not that stable. This time, Stephen made a fake move to break through. After tricking Durant, Stephen sent the ball into the basket with a back jump shot.

Stephen has made three, and he has made no mistakes yet. Durant has only made one. However, in the next attack, Durant suddenly took off after doing a lot of dribbling movements. Although Stephen also rose up, Durant made a side move in the air to avoid Stephen's block. The ball bounced into the basket after hitting the rebound. Durant still gave Stephen two fingers.

There was no expression on Stephen's face. Even if he missed the next attack, he still looked the same. Durant wanted to tell him that he had already entered two, and he had only entered three, but seeing that Stephen was still like this, he had no confidence.

Durant still had to repeat the same trick, but as soon as he raised his hand, the ball was hit by Stephen without taking action. This was a good block. After it fell to the ground, Stephen shook his finger at Durant and said, "Reusing the same move is invalid for me, come on a new one."

When it was Stephen's turn to attack, Stephen turned around and came a back-to-back single. Durant stuck behind Stephen, as if there was no obstacle at all. He just used his wingspan to constantly interfere with Stephen's dribble. Stephen found that his back could still defend like this.

However, Durant's strength was really bad. Stephen turned around and squeezed him behind him in one and a half, then raised his hand and made a layup, and sent the ball into the basket. Then Durant missed two consecutive offenses, but Stephen scored two goals in a row, leading Durant 6-2.
