NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 470 Gary, You Are A Ring Material

Game start.

Lee Ba ​​and Jerome James jump ball.

This is a meat shield center, 135 kilograms, averaging 4+3 per game, used to carry O'Neal and guys like him.

Easy to win the jump ball, the first time Li Ba hit the ground, he started a fast break and rushed past Jerome James on the opposite side.

Jerome James tugged at his arm and he broke free.

Seeing that Li Ba was about to hit the penalty area, Supersonic power forward Danny Fortson stood in front of him.

This backup forward, who can play center and power forward, is a veteran of 97. He was the 10th pick in the first round with Duncan. He is 201 cm tall, but weighs 116 kg, which is about the same as Li Ba. He has a large tonnage and a center of gravity. Still low.

He was once a rebounding monster in the league, averaging 20 rebounds in 7.2 minutes per game, and his defense is also very strong. Unfortunately, now he has more injuries, his mobility is weakened, his rebounds are less, and he has become a marginal player.

But he has a problem. As he sits on the bench due to the decline in ability value and family reasons, his personality becomes more and more irritable, more and more fouls are committed on the field, and his control ability is not strong.

This season, his technical fouls rank second in the league, only under Rasheed Wallace. Like Li Ba, he has a nickname called villain.

Even facing Li Ba now, he is extremely fierce.

"Oh!"

Seeing someone blocking the way, Li Ba changed direction slightly, and their shoulders collided instantly.

Danny Fortson was knocked back a step by Li Ba's powerful impact force, and Li Ba's momentum couldn't help but stalled.

At this moment, center Jerome James caught up and stood in front of Li Ba.

Li Ba glanced at Danny Fortson, who also gave him a fierce look, and then the two of them tugged and went to the low position on the right wing together.

Li Ba felt it for a while. In terms of strength, he was going to surpass Danny Fortson. In terms of absolute strength and quality, he was really strong.

"Oh!"

As soon as he reached the low position, Li Ba bumped Fortson, and then took the opportunity to turn around and rush towards the paint area.

Fordson was inferior in strength, inferior in speed, and inferior in mobility. Watching Li Ba rush in, he couldn't help feeling depressed.

"Whoosh!"

Payton's pass came in.

"Snapped!"

The moment the basketball flew to the ground, Li Ba held it down with his left hand from the side with great precision. With his abdomen pulled back and exerting force, he slammed forward with his left arm at high speed, and smashed the ball into the basket with a bang.

"what!!!"

The American West Arena cheered.

"Wow, a beautiful lob! A super heavy kick from the Hammer, he lifted the curtain of today's stage..." the Sun team commentator roared wantonly.

"Humph!"

Fortson, who was a step behind, snorted coldly. He hates the person on the opposite side to show off in front of him the most.

Supersonic attack.

Luc Crednor advanced to the frontcourt and handed it to shooting guard Ray Allen on the left-wing three-point line.

Li Ba has already defended to the left elbow, and Fortson was completely emptied by him.

Fortson's offensive ability is a little stronger than that of Supersonics main forward Reggie Evans. Evans basically does not attack, and he occasionally plays one.

But with such an offensive ability, it is impossible for Li Ba to put his defensive energy on him, it is not worth it.

His defensive task today is to help defend and supplement the perimeter of the Sonics.

This time, he focused on Ray Allen.

Seeing Li Ba standing at the left elbow, Lei Allen stopped thinking of rushing in.

His career three-point shooting rate is as high as 40%. He averages less than 6 three-point shots per game, averages 2.3 shots per game, and takes 39% of his shots.

Li Ba's defense against Ray Allen doesn't have to be against him, as long as he keeps him out of the three-point line and doesn't let him in, it's considered a success.

Of course, if a good pitcher like Ray Allen has a sense of shooting, he can also kill the Suns. The Suns also lost in this way last season.

Ray Allen made a false shot, shook Battier back, and then jumped up for a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

Really hit it.

Chewing gum, Lei Allen smiled at Li Ba.

Li Ba's reaction was to start straight forward and rush to the frontcourt.

Lei Allen's complexion changed, and he hurried over to grab Li Ba, and was directly led into a somersault.

Later, Chandler picked up the ball and retreated to the baseline. At this time, Payton was clapping for the ball and quickly threw it.

Li Ba took the lead and rushed to the front field like a heavy tank.

Ray Allen fell, point guard Luc Credno went to defend Payton, and the other three SuperSonics were in the low post.

So at this moment, when Li Ba rushed up, there was no one in front of him.

This is one of his advantages in the high position. On the offensive end, he is closer to the frontcourt, and he can play a stronger and sharper fast break.

His current speed and explosive power are comparable to those of ordinary small forwards. He plays fast break, and no one in the league's back line can stop him, and no one in the low post can catch up with him.

In other words, only the strikers, like James and Anthony, can choke him in this kind of fast break.

Li Ba strode into the paint and Payton's pass went in.

"Oh!"

Facing the unguarded basket where he could get whatever he wanted, Li Ba jumped up.

"Snapped!"

Catch the ball with both hands.

"boom!"

Heavy, Li Ba smashed a ball into the basket.

"what!!!!!!!"

The American West Arena is roaring wantonly.

"Ooh, another lob, it's still a great performance from Hammer and Mitt Payton ... yes, Hammer and Mitt, we can call them Iron Hands, it's good."

The Sun commentator yelled again, and then nicknamed Li Ba and Payton by the way.

"Iron Hands!!!"

The nickname was met with enthusiastic response from Suns fans.

"Good pass, Gary, you're ring material, and I'll let you get your wish."

Li Ba returned to the defense quickly, and when he passed Payton, he yelled at him.

"I like this saying."

Peyton opened his mouth wide and laughed happily.

Supersonic attack.

At the top of the arc, Luc Crednor and Ray Allen made a pick-and-roll, holding the ball and heading for the paint.

Li Ba emptied Fordson again, mentioned the high position, and defended Ridnour.

Behind, Fortson moved to the basket from the low post on the right wing, waving for the ball to Ridnour who broke through.

Before hitting Lee Dam, Ridnor tossed the ball with both hands to the floor on the front right side for a floor pass.

Unexpectedly, Li Ba stepped back with his left foot, leaned over, and grabbed the ball with his left hand very quickly. With a snap, he caught the ball bouncing off the floor in his hand.

Suddenly, Ridnour, who was passing the ball, was dumbfounded. Can this also steal?

He even noticed that when the hammer broke the ball, his eyes were not on the ball at all.

Fortson, who was about to catch the ball, also glared at Li Ba's back angrily. It's really annoying that this guy took away his offensive opportunity.

At this time, Li Ba passed the ball, Payton and Battier quickly turned around and went down quickly, Ray Allen also began to return to the defense, two-on-one in the frontcourt, and finally Battier received the pass from Payton, scored a layup and scored a goal.

3:6, the Suns lead at home.
