Pick Westbrook

Chapter 83 The All-Stars Are Coming (Please recommend a monthly ticket)

Finally the game is over.

The Bucks lost the game 96:108, ending this Western Devils trip.

Tyronn Lue still couldn't understand, looked at Li Lai with a pity on his face and said: "Coach, our substitute lineup played so well, if the starting lineup can play a little bit better, maybe we can win tonight's game Contest."

"After all, the opponent is the Lakers, the number one team in the league this season!"

"If you defeat them, it will boost your morale!"

Of course Li Lai knew that Tyronn Lue was still complaining that he didn't put Westbrook on the bench and give him a good scolding.

这场比赛威斯特布鲁克出手数达到了惊人的28次，却只有10次命中，拿到了22分8篮板5助攻的数据。

This efficiency can be described as appalling.

Moreover, he took 28 shots in a single game, which is completely inconsistent with the Bucks' team style of play.

"Lu, actually our starting players are already very tired." Li Lai said suddenly.

Tyronn Lue frowned slightly, remembering that the Bucks players were clenching their teeth to support the game during the devil's trip to the West.

Especially the previous back-to-back games against the Spurs and Thunder took a lot of energy from the players.

They are indeed very tired.

If you switch to another team, there is a high probability that the core players will be rested.

Thinking of this, Tyronn Lue suddenly looked at Li Lai in shock, "That's why the coach gave the second team a lot of playing time in this game?"

Li Lai nodded, indeed.

And the result made him very satisfied. Under the leadership of Dragic and veterans Marshall, Crohill and Elson, the Bucks' second team played very bloody.

Even facing the Lakers with the best record in the league, they are merciless.

Especially Andre Ingram, he brought a very big surprise to Li Lai.

这场比赛安德烈英格拉姆三分球6投4中，拿到了12分3篮板2助攻的数据。

Who would have thought that the player who won this statistic was a player who was not wanted in the league during the off-season?
Reggie Miller is right. The three-point champion of the Development League in his previous life is indeed the only player on the Bucks who has reached another level of three-pointers at this stage.

Of course, his defensive problems are still very serious. Even if he is placed in the second team of the NBA today, his defense is still failing.

on the field.

Kobe pointed to Westbrook, who walked over knowingly.

Kobe took the initiative to hug and greet the junior.

"None of the rookies who challenged me really stood out to me."

"It's not that their abilities are not good. There are several players who have surpassed me in this grade, but I just look down on them."

Westbrook was stunned, counting who among these players in his mind.

Kobe continued: "But you are different, you are better than them all!
I love your fighting spirit! "

After speaking, Kobe took off his sneakers and gave them to Westbrook.

"When you can really challenge me, I will fight with all my strength."

After speaking, Kobe put on a towel and went to the post-match interview proudly.

And Westbrook was still in a daze, looking at the sneakers in his hands in disbelief.

Kobe recognized him?

League No.1 recognized him?
No, he said that in the future he will fight with all his strength, that is to say, now
"Original, are you satisfied?" Li Lai suddenly walked over and asked.

Westbrook recovered and blushed, knowing that he had messed up everything, and whispered two words, "Coach."

Li Lai smiled and said: "As a head coach, no matter what happens, you should let the team go on the right path. This is the reason why I refuse you to defend Kobe."

Westbrook held the sneakers tightly and asked nervously, "Then why did the coach allow me to single-play Kobe?"

Li Lai rubbed Westbrook's head, and said affectionately: "Russell, when I see that the player I selected has such a strong competitive spirit, I really can't find a reason to reject him."

Westbrook: Coach.
At this time, the other players of the Bucks rushed over.

Li Lai pointed to Artest and Yi Jianlian and said seriously: "Thank you to your teammates, because they have been working hard to wipe your ass because of your willful behavior.

So, this is your first and last time. "

Westbrook looked at Yi Jianlian, who had been hammered by Bynum, and Artest was scratched a lot in the matchup with Gasol even though he was strong.

This scene made the young Westbrook's nose sore, he could only try to restrain himself and high-five his teammates.

All emotions are in this palm.

Tyronn Lue on the coach's bench has a different color in his eyes when he sees this.

For the first time, he found that a coach should not just lead the team to win.

Phil Jackson was also very surprised to see the scene of the Bucks, and engraved the figure named Li Lai in his mind.

The Bucks are finally on their flight home.

2 wins and 2 losses in the Western Devils Tour, this result is acceptable to Li Lai.

Most importantly, Li Lai has brought a lot of experience and inspiration to Li Lai by battling four strong teams in the league one after another, especially the two championship teams, the Spurs and the Lakers.

The players of the Bucks also became more tenacious and united after this experience.

During the two-day holiday, Li Lai took all the time off for the first time, allowing the players to have a good rest.

Dragic cheered the most, and immediately packed his bags and prepared to go out and have a good time.

This guy is notoriously money-loving and lustful in the team, even the seasoned Elson is ashamed of himself, bluntly saying that young people have so many tricks.

So Elson chose to join, and Yi Jianlian was naturally also brought in.

"Ah Lian, you must not learn badly!"

On the night he returned to Milwaukee after seeing Li Lai, Hammond brought a new message.

"The NBA All-Star weekend is coming, this time it will be held in Phoenix, and the All-Star voting has already begun."

Hammond reminded.

The All-Star Weekend is an entertainment festival. Although it is not included in the official competition, it has attracted a lot of attention because of its high entertainment.

And there is only such an opportunity a year, which is the best choice for a famous appearance.

There will be Rookie Challenge, Shooting Star, Skills Challenge, Three Point Contest, Slam Dunk Contest and All-Star Game.

"If our players can play here and win a championship and show off, it will definitely increase the reputation of the team."

Hammond explained why he cares about the event.

The increase in fame will be of great help to a team in attracting players to join in the future and the favor of sponsors.

Li Lai asked curiously: "Which games can our players participate in or which players can participate in the All-Star Weekend?"

Hammond said: "The All-Star voting has already begun. Currently, Yi Jianlian is No.2 in the center position in the Eastern Conference, second only to Warcraft Howard. He has great hopes to enter the All-Star Game.

In addition, there is Artest, who ranks fifth in the Eastern Conference forward position, ahead of James, Garnett, Pierce, Bosh and others. "
