NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 228 The First 55

Parker dribbled forward from the backcourt, Marbury came up to press, the former made a mistake, and the ball was exchanged.

When the Suns attacked, Li Ba asked for another ball and beat Duncan.

Bao Wen came up to double-team, but after being glared fiercely by Li Ba, he hesitated for a moment and didn't make a move in time.

Li Ba took the opportunity to quickly push Duncan into the reasonable collision zone by hitting sideways and back, and took advantage of the opportunity to smash the basket.

90:93, Duncan did not jump up in time, and Li Ba added a free throw.

"boom!"

A missed free throw allowed Duncan to grab the rebound, but Marion made the steal and dunked Duncan over the head.

90: 95.

The Spurs attacked, Popovich called a timeout, and squirted at Duncan and the others.

But his roar still couldn't solve the Spurs' slump. Ginobili broke into the paint area, Li Ba jumped up to defend, he made a dribble error and tripped himself.

Duncan picked up the ball in the confusion, but he made another mistake and kicked the ball out of the baseline.

Popovich sat on the bench disappointed.

In his opinion, his strategic goal was not achieved, but the will of his own team was defeated. Today is a complete defeat, a real complete defeat.

The rookie named Iron Hammer defeated the Spurs with his defense. Even if the point difference was not too big, it was an absolute defeat.

What is even more irritating is that Tim Duncan's state today disappointed him. In the last 3 minutes of the matchup with the rookie, he did not play the role of the pinnacle at the critical moment and made frequent mistakes.

No wonder that rookie was able to play back and forth against O'Neal. It seems that in the future against the Suns, Tim must be matched against him from the beginning, trying to beat him one-on-one, and then rely on other positions to win.

"Defensive end, defensive end..." he kept muttering.

In the past, he thought that he had to be careful of the rookie on the offensive end, but now he changed his mind. He really had to focus on the defensive end and let Duncan keep an eye on the rookie.

90:97, in the end the Suns won by 7 points at home and tied with the Spurs this season.

It was the Suns' 30th win of the season, going 30-14.

Needless to say, Li Ba's performance in this game, the data of his opponent Rasu can be ignored.

上场36分钟，10投9中，罚6中3，他拿下了21分16篮板5助攻5抢断5封盖的数据，绝对的豪华。

能在砍下21分16篮板的情况下，还能完成5*5，这是超级巨星才能打出来的豪华版5*5。

For the first 7 people, only Dameng can play the deluxe version, and the 5*5 of the others can only be regarded as the civilian version.

With this data, Li Ba became the well-deserved MVP of the game.

"Hammer, congratulations!"

The general manager of the team, Colangelo, came over and told him that the league notified the team and he became the first-year starting center for the Los Angeles All-Star Rookie Challenge.

That's when the on-site interview began.

"Hammer, congratulations on completing 5*5, so do you think today is your normal performance?" A reporter asked.

"The Spurs didn't double-team me, they didn't cut me, the defense was never strong, and their center couldn't threaten me, which is why I scored more. If Tim Duncan and I'm playing against, maybe today will be different."

Li Ba said modestly.

"Will you lose?" the reporter asked.

"Yes, I will kill Duncan and let him and the Spurs really lose this game." Li Ba laughed.

"Haha..." The reporters burst out laughing.

"Do you think Duncan and the Spurs didn't lose this game?" asked another reporter.

"Personally, our three-minute matchup wasn't a real contest, so it wasn't a real win or loss. For the Spurs, it was just an inconsequential regular season, and they didn't give it their all. In particular, Duncan doesn’t have many offenses, and he hasn’t reached his average number of shots per game. I know this. I know his strength. Last year, he led the team to win the championship with a single core. , I think he didn't show half of his strength tonight." Li Ba said.

“邓肯本场拿下15分6篮板3助攻1抢断1封盖，你的表现要远好于他，你认为自己的实力已经超越了他吗？”有记者问道。

"As I said just now, he may not have shown half of his strength. This data does not explain any problems. As for the strength between us, it needs a real matchup to verify. In the regular season, I have played O'Neal, Garnett, Duncan, Driver and other super giants inside, these guys I have met have not played at their full potential, and I hope to meet them again in the playoffs." Li Ba said.

"We know that you will play against Timberwolves again the day after tomorrow. Based on Marbury's reasons, you are sworn enemies. Will you fight with all your strength?" A reporter asked.

"You have already said, since we are the mortal enemy, of course we must fight with all our strength." Li Ba said with certainty.

The next day, Li Ba moved.

At noon, he opened a PT in his new home and came over for dinner with the whole team.

In the afternoon, the whole team got on the plane. In the next few days, they will have five consecutive away games, the last four of which are all in the East, and the first away game is the Minnesota Timberwolves.

"The Iron Horse Combination will fight the three-headed monster again!"

"The lone wolf is no longer, the sun-headed horse is rushing to Minnesota, and revenge!"

The major media began to hype the game.

The game will be televised nationwide on TNT.

Before entering the field, the two teams met at the entrance of the channel.

"Hey, Hardt, we meet again, will you face me tonight?" Li Ba said.

"as you wish!"

A fierce look flashed on Garnett's face, and his words were as cold as ice scum.

"Rookie, I will shoot you this time!" Madman Latrell Sprewell said coldly.

"Ah!"

Li Ba laughed meaninglessly, ignored the madman, glanced at the alien Sam Cassell, and turned his head.

"you?"

Seeing that Li Ba didn't bother to pay attention to him, this so-called craziest maniac in NBA history turned red with anger.

But big fists are the last word. If it were someone else, he might step up and make trouble, but facing Li Ba, this madman who dared to lock the head coach's throat, didn't dare to go up.

"Iron-blooded big jumper like a softie, the Timberwolves are born with no iron-blood factor! My iron elbow has been lonely for a long time!"

While talking to himself, Li Ba raised his elbow, and smashed his elbow on the wall with a bang, a large part of the wall fell off, and a large part of the wall was dented.

Seeing this scene, the faces of Madman, Garnett and others all changed, and they also became quiet.

In contrast, Marbury and Marion and others laughed.

When the starters entered the field, the Target Center Arena sent the most enthusiastic boos to Li Ba and the five.

Especially Marbury, who was the first to play, enjoyed the welcome of abuse.

Li Ba, the guy who dunked Garnett, was treated no worse than Marbury.

"Stephen, we are quite popular, so we need to repay them tonight." Li Ba said without changing his expression.

"I've never done anything sorry for the Timberwolves." Marbury's mood was affected.

"So for these fans, don't think about respecting them, it's enough to conquer them." Li Ba said coldly.
