　　But Xue Ding knows that Durant is also starting to score this year! Wei Shao made rapid progress after spending the iron playing season! The addition of Harden and Ibaka made the Thunder completely a powerhouse in the west, and the Thunder three began to play their own reputation in various positions.

　　 Such a Thunder is definitely not easy to play, can not look at them last season.

　　 Xue Ding has a good relationship with Harden. The two of them had quite a lot of exchanges after the draft. The two were considered friends.

　　After coming to the Russian city, Xue Ding sent Harden a message for the first time.

　　 "James, I'm here in Homer, Ohio. Are you ready to accept the failure?"

　　 "Xue, Chinese modesty, you have nothing at all? Wait, I will tell you why I am the No. 3 show tomorrow night."

　　 "How do the losers shave their beards?"

　　 Harden started to grow his beard under Xue Ding's suggestion, it was already small, Xue Ding spoofed Harden.

　　 "Hey, I don't accept this bet, you don't have a beard." Harden refused decisively.

　　 The communication between the two was smooth.

　　…………

　　The Blazers' goal this season is the championship, while the Thunder's goal is the playoffs.

　　 Xue Ding also said to the reporter: "I want data, and I want victory."

　　Xue Ding's speech is sometimes straightforward, sometimes it is very tactful, and sometimes the reporter can't keep up with his thinking.

　　Roy said: "Xue's pick is definitely more than 22, I certainly support him, he will be the best rookie this year."

　　 Durant said: "James’ role is not what the data can show. He is very important to us. I have always believed that he is the most powerful rookie in this session."

　　 The media fully copied the hot spots on both sides, and the two bosses also came forward to support their younger brother.

　　 On the other side, Oden was also looking at Durant.
