You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 246 Uncompromising thick skin and inexplicable self-confidence

The last round of the first quarter between the Lakers and the Cavaliers perfectly distinguished Kobe and James.

There were 24 seconds to the end of the game, and James pressed down to 14 seconds to start the attack. Like Kobe, he played the first quarter with most of his points coming from the basket.

At this time, the main defense against him was Brian Russell.

Where did "Madman" go?

In Magic's words: "Latrell looks like he needs to be put on a ventilator."

James played relatively slowly today, Wei Xia angered him, but the anger was borne by Sprewell.From counterattacking the flat-basket battle ax like a god, to breaking through in positional warfare and blasting away the elderly and then teaching people with the left hand, and rushing to the end like a sinking boat to strengthen 2+1.The above pictures are enough to prove that as long as the Chosen One is willing, it is only a matter of time before any player from the Lakers is blown up.

In the last attack of the first quarter, the Lakers thought that James was going to repeat the old trick. After all, his breakthrough was infinitely powerful, and his murderous look was not aimless.In the end, it taught the Lakers a lesson. Although the emperor's face is full of vicissitudes, how do you know that he didn't do it on purpose, so that you can't see that his real purpose is to pass the ball to the bottom corner and make a three-pointer.

The Cavaliers player named Donyell Marshall, who is in charge of guarding the bottom corner, is a well-known all-round forward guard, who is in harmony with James on three-pointers.

James' breakthrough took away the attention of all the Lakers, and he passed the ball to the bottom corner, allowing Marshall to hit a hollow three-pointer.

33 is better than 32
With 8 seconds left before the end of the first quarter, James' sudden score allowed the Cavaliers to overtake the Lakers.

Kobe, who was full of gunpowder, seemed to let the Cavaliers know how to play the key ball. He forced the dribble and rushed forward.
Marshall scored a three-pointer offensively, and the defense also acted as a vanguard to allow Kobe to stop the ball.

With a body of 206 centimeters, he stepped forward directly.

Kobe held the ball, and when he looked up, he could only see Marshall's armpit hair and clear body odor. If his forced shot missed, it must be affected by the opponent's body odor, not his own problem.

That's right, he doesn't think about passing, even though Marshall has blocked all theoretical opportunities.

Kobe let his body jump into the air in an arc, brave and resolute, and infinitely raised the shooting arc.

Wei Xia stared open-mouthed.

If this kind of ball is replaced by James, even if he passes the ball out of bounds, he can't make it himself.

For teammates, three or four goals may be scored out of ten.

Vote by yourself, if you can get one out of ten, it's because God admires you for being a stinky scumbag.

I have to admit that God appreciates this "courageous" attitude. Kobe's unreasonable ultra-high-arc three-pointer fell into the net in a way beyond Marshall's cognition.

"Is this fucking okay too?" Vaughan Weaver howled.

"This is Kobe!" Wei Xia shook his head.

Kobe gritted his teeth, still looking like he was going to bite someone. Do you need to remind him that it is the break time between festivals, and being put on like this will affect everyone's rest?

"Is it your motto to do what you know you can't do?" Wei Xia and Kobe clapped their hands and asked by the way.

"No." Kobe shook his head.

Wei Xia asked again: "The person who passes the ball at the last moment is a waste. Is this sentence your motto?"

"Do not."

He denied it again.

"Then why don't you pass the ball?" Wei Xia will find his question meaningless.

Because Kobe would say; "I'm sure I'll make it."

Wei Xia felt sad for his teammates on the field. How low were they so low that Kobe felt from the bottom of his heart that facing the 206-cm Marshall forcibly pulling up a three-pointer was more sure than passing them the ball?
Xiba, this is Kobe!
Wei Xia complained in his heart.

In the second quarter, Wei Xia returned to the game.

His position is the No. [-] position, and he is partnered with fellow student Vaughan Weaver, veteran Devean George (Devean George SF), who was on the team during the OK period, and "the smartest Laker" and fellow student Andrew Bynum.

"I may never understand Phil's scheduling." The magician said, "In the case of a scoreless situation, he let three first-year players play in the transition period, and let Luke Walton act as the power forward of this lineup. He is really too bold!"

Albert smiled and commented: "In my opinion, compared with other champion coaches, Phil's biggest feature is his flexibility in employing people. We often see him put on strange lineups and achieve miraculous results."

That's because the lineup that didn't work was ignored.The magician said in his heart.

Competitive sports is one of the industries that most inspires survivorship bias, and the guys who come out on top are often overlooked how many times they used so-called "wonder tricks" to get their teams into the deep end.

Fortunately, the Cavaliers don't look like a particularly difficult lineup.

They replaced James to rest, and that was enough.

Everyone else on the court, the Lakers don't care who he is.

In the first round of the second quarter, Wei Xia controlled the ball at the top of the arc, and he needed to borrow a little wisdom from the "smartest Lakers".

Wharton immediately completed a high-quality pick-and-roll, helping Weixia break through smoothly.

On the right side of the paint, Wei Xia bullied the Lithuanian and couldn't get out. He opened his hand to shoot and hit the board.

37 is better than 33
Compared with playing with the main players, Wei Xia also enjoyed the time leading the second team.Playing with the second team, their opponents are also the second team.When the intensity is down, his advantage will be great.Moreover, he is the absolute core in the second team.

The relaxed mood lasted less than ten seconds.

Bynum decided to help Wei Xia tighten his nerves, otherwise how would he deal with Jackson's unfathomable test?

So, he ate the big Z's dragon wagging its tail.The will to defend is as indestructible as steel. He strives to rise, hoping to use his wingspan to hit the opponent unexpectedly.However, the wingspan advantage is only enough for him to get back a foul, which is not reliable.

哔

The referee's whistle was a foul by Bynum, and Big Z easily completed a two-handed slam dunk.

Bynum has a rare talent, and he is the baby of Bass Jr. Although Jackson treats him like Wei Xia, he wears colored glasses.But Jr. Bass controlled the scouting department, which made it impossible for the Lakers to add high-quality and low-quality substitute insiders. The management headed by Mitch Kupchak said every day that they were interested in so-and-so, and the transaction was also in the process, but there was always thunder and rain.

The Lakers' inside line is constrained by the complex internal environment and it is difficult to reinforce, but the Zen master can't blame others.During the offseason, he has the absolute right to speak about reinforcements. It is no problem to use the 1 million one-year signing of Sprewell to strengthen the inside line, but he insists on building a wing group, eager to reproduce the glory of the Bulls' second dynasty.

Speaking of Bynum, his talent is visible to the naked eye. His biggest problem in playing in the NBA is not technical issues or strength issues, but the issue of foul control.

Even if Zen master shows mercy and gives him a chance, he is destined to not be able to stay on the court if he fouls at every turn.

The big Z also hits the penalty.

36 is better than 37
All of a sudden, 3 points were recovered, and the two teams were only 1 point behind.

Wei Xia doesn't need to pick and roll. Facing Luke Jackson's defense, the change of direction is stronger, and fancy moves are completely avoided. It only takes one step to break through the opponent.

The Cavaliers' defense was completely disrupted by him. Wei Xia looked reckless, but in fact he saw the movement and positioning of his outside teammates.

The first thing he found was Weaver.

Weaver raised the left 45-degree three-point line from the bottom corner, yelled good after receiving the ball, and then decisively scored a three-pointer. The rare good opportunity was not wasted.

The head coach of the Cavaliers, Mike Brown, was surprised and anxious. He had expected the second team of the two sides to peck at each other, but who would have thought that a weasel who likes to eat chicken suddenly appeared in a group of "chickens".

"Just a rookie, nothing special, let him shoot three-pointers, once he breaks through, shrink the penalty area!" Brown yelled.

Big Z continued to teach Bynum a lesson.

Just now, I turned around and demonstrated my footsteps, and the next move is called "My Lord is not walking up and down, it's your lower back that hurts".

Bynum reminded Big Z of his All-Star season. Back then (last year), he was also the top three in the East with an average of 17+7 per game. How could anyone doubt his ability to deal with 18-year-olds?He doesn't need to prove himself, he just needs to use facts to reason, and to let them see it clearly and clearly, he must deeply engrave the image of him educating the little kid in his mind.

Bynum had heard about Kevin McHale's up and down, and he would, too.

But Big Z's up and down steps were too deformed, he couldn't even understand what he was doing.Slow speed, small strides, one step back, one step forward, lowering his head, probing the ball from under his waist—each step took at least one second, and it would have been called a violation if it was placed in the paint.

It was the slow movement that made Bynum lose his patience, and made Big Z break down the kid's defense again. He threw the ball from Bynum's waist to the basket and hit the board.

Two rounds, two different ways, and Bynum couldn't say "That's it?" anymore.

Bynum was hit hard, and the arrogance of underestimating the heroes of the world has disappeared.

Wei Xia put the ball into his arms and said, "Andrew, do you know what I like most about you?"

"What?" Bynum served.

"Incomparably tough cheeky and inexplicable self-confidence." The way Wei Xia praised Bynum made him very ashamed, "Don't be knocked out by that Lithuanian."

Bynum served furiously, ready to hit back.

His plan did not go well.

The Cavaliers didn't know how to go crazy, so they insisted on trying Wei Xia's outside martial arts.

Wei Xia took the ball to the front court, and the outside line was empty. He was told to fly straight up one meter, and pulled out a three-point arrow from the top of the arc, just like the flames of hell.

Swish!
