From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 63 Xia Lian Hukai Battle (5)

After Ball was ejected, the field entered a timeout.

In fact, the reason why Jiang Hu blames Bauer is his own selfishness.

Who told him that he was a Lakers fan in his previous life. Ball made him feel extremely disappointed from his personality to his skills.

The level of the game is mediocre, it's okay if you can't play in line with the pick, and your personality is not likable.

Being worn in the crotch during garbage time is still submissive.

His teammates stood up for him, but he walked away as if nothing had happened.

The game between the Lakers and the Nuggets made the world who watched the game in front of the TV in the previous life very angry.

He thought Bauer was Ye Fan, but he didn't expect it to be Wang Teng.

He never thought that the super No. [-] player in the media's overwhelming publicity, the player who boasted that he was stronger than the ancient beasts, was actually such a thing...

Now that they have the opportunity to face each other face to face, it is natural to teach him a lesson.

Maybe because Ball is usually relatively taciturn, no one on the Lakers stands up for him...

Kuzma, who has the best relationship with him, accompanied him to the locker room.

Ingram, the only one who might stand in for him, missed the game today and didn't even come to the scene...

If Ingram was on the court, he might try his best to come over and help Ball get ahead...

He has done this more than once, Jianghu appreciates him.

…………

As soon as Jianghu sat down on the chair, Jaylen Brown sat over immediately.

"It's unbelievable, you actually set a broken piece of wood on fire!!" Jaylen Brown shook his head and couldn't help sighing.

"How did you do that?" he asked curiously.

"I sprayed him, it was too much." Jiang Hu said with a smile.

"What are you spraying on him?" Brown was curious, what kind of remarks Jianghu said would make Ball lose his composure...

"I said he is a waste, he can't attack and defend, except for passing, he can only foul!!" Jiang Hu held the back of his head with his hands, crossed his legs, and didn't feel guilty at all...

"I feel like I'm helping him grow and he'll thank me in the future!!"

"Come on, if he doesn't find a gun and kill you..."

"But what you said is really not too much. He is too sensitive." Jaylen Brown sighed. He has heard more words than this in high school, college and field, but he has never broken the defense. .

"But it's also because you said it that he lost his composure."

"Oh why??"

Jianghu showed curiosity on his face, wanting to hear what Brown had to say.

"He may regard you as a target competitor or a lifelong enemy, so he will take what you say."

According to Brown's analysis, it is normal for Jianghu and Ball to be selected one pick behind each other in the same year, and the two teams that are each other's biggest rivals in the NBA, regard each other as the most concerned competitors.

For example, Brown himself and Ingram are also one pick behind in the same class. Although he never said it, he will always turn on his phone after his game to see how Ingram is doing.

As long as he performs better than Ingram, he can be happy all day.

"Is he worthy??" The corner of Jiang Hu's mouth revealed a sarcasm...

"He doesn't deserve it." Jaylen Brown shook his head.

"Next time, if he's still this bad, I'll still insult him."

"and then?"

"Then apologize after the game, tell him, this is the NBA, and then continue to insult him next time."

After Jiang Hu said this sentence, the two looked at each other, and then laughed in tacit understanding.

"Hahahahahaha..."

.....................

The time-out is over and the game continues.

The Lakers earned three free throws due to Ball's shooting foul plus two technical fouls.

Jianghu walked to the free throw line and was booed by the Lakers fans present.

His touch is also average, and only two of the three free throws succeeded.

Celtics 19: 7 Lakers.

After the free throw, Jianghu gave the ball to Brown, but unfortunately his mid-range missed the frame.

On the contrary, the Lakers made a three-pointer in the first round after returning from the timeout.

The person who made the three-pointer was Caruso who came off the bench. In the previous game, his three-point shooting percentage was very bad, only 31%. Jaylen Brown released him according to the instructions of the scout report. Confidently hit the ball.

After the rematch, the person responsible for defending the rivers and lakes became Kuzma.

Against Kuzma, Jianghu did not continue his trash talk, but played quietly.

He has no problem with Kuzma, and when he was a fan, Kuzma's performance also satisfied him.

However, Kuzma's defensive ability is much worse than Ball's.

Although his height is similar to Jianghu, the two are by no means the same type of players. Kuzma has strong offense and weak defense, and his defensive habits are not good.

As someone who has been there, Jianghu still knows Kuzma quite well during this period.

He's aggressive on the offensive end and equally active on the defensive end.

Being active on the offensive end allows him to find many good scoring opportunities, but being active on the defensive end will make him pay for fouls.

In the next two rounds, Jianghu singled out Kuzma in a row.

The threat of shooting in Jianghu caused his fake moves to be too realistic for Kuzma, and Kuzma was cheated.

In the two rounds, Jianghu went to the free throw line twice in a row, hit 2+1 once, and scored 1 point for a free throw.

Celtics 23: 10 Lakers.

At the beginning of the first quarter, Jianghu scored 6 points and 21 assists in only 2 minutes.

The reason why Jianghu's performance is so good is that on the one hand, his strength is indeed one of the best in the summer league stage. On the other hand, the dismissal of Bao Ergan also made him feel good, which boosted his own sense of touch.

After the 6-minute timeout, the Lakers finally couldn't bear it during the timeout and arranged double-team tactics against Jianghu.

But after returning from the timeout, the Lakers were dumbfounded.

Jianghu, the target they were planning to double-team, has already sat off the field.

The Lakers, who paused for nothing, fell into confusion on the court and were scored by Jaylen Brown with two consecutive singles mid-range jumpers.

Celtics 27: 10 Lakers.

But they quickly turned their guns around and arranged the double-teaming tactic to Jaylen Brown.

Poor Jaylen Brown finally waited for the end of the rivers and lakes, and was ready to play freely for a while.

Unexpectedly, the Lakers immediately gave him the Roujiamo set meal.

Jaylen Brown just came to the frontcourt, and took off with difficulty to receive an outrageous pass from Demetri Jackson. Josh Hart and Caruso's double-team came immediately.

The two men waved their arms up and down, and the non-stop physical confrontation quickly forced Jaylen Brown to lose the ball.

On the offensive end of the Lakers, Kuzma seized the opportunity, cut to the basket and received a pass from Zubac, and scored a 2+1 over Ojeleye's head, chasing the score to 27-13.

In the next round, Caruso faced Jaylen Brown directly. Brown wanted to run away from the ball, but how could Caruso, who was aiming to win a two-way contract, let him get his wish.

Caruso frantically confronted Brown, even if he was accidentally hit on the chin by Brown's elbow, he still refused to give up.

After the referee whistled, Caruso rubbed his chin casually and devoted himself to defense again.

Caruso's fighting spirit ignited other Lakers players, and the defensive intensity of the entire Lakers was instantly raised.

Although this round did not steal the Celtics, it also successfully caused a 24-second violation by the Celtics.

Then back to the offensive end of the Lakers, Josh Hart saw the timing and accelerated from the three-point line. He used his strong upper limbs to hit Brown's block and scored the ball, resulting in 2+1.

27-16, after Jianghu left the court, the Lakers instantly reversed the situation on the court and quickly reversed the momentum of the game.

The Lakers' counterattack wave is not over yet. In the next round, after being double-teamed, Jaylen Brown passed the ball to Ojeleye who cut from the right bottom corner to the basket.

It was a rare opportunity for Ojeleye to express himself, so he was naturally excited about it. He took off with all his strength, held the ball in both hands, and was about to smash the ball into the basket...

But what he didn't find was that beside him was a big center Zubac who was nearly 20 centimeters taller than him.

Ojeleye took off and dunked with both hands, and Zubac took off at the same time. The two wrestled in the air. In the end, Zubac had the upper hand. He slapped Ojeleye's dunk and flipped Ojeleye's cap to the ground. .

The moment Ojelaie landed, all the Lakers fans fell into a collective climax, shouting and cheering frantically, almost turning this stadium into the Lakers' home court.

Even crazier than the Lakers' home Staples...

With the support of the fans, the Lakers once again set off this counterattack.

Hart broke through with the ball and then passed it to Caruso on the outside.

Caruso broke through again, and when he encountered a supplementary defense, he was given to Kuzma in the right corner.

Kuzma got the ball and used a fake action to fly Celtics power forward Nader, and then broke through and attracted Ojeleye's supplementary defense.

Then he threw a no-look pass with a small hand, and Zubac, who was open under the basket, slammed into the basket heavily alley-oop.

After hitting the goal, the scene almost fell into madness, and the Lakers fans were completely overjoyed...

At 27:18, after the end of Jianghu, the Lakers were beaten 4-0, and then they quickly returned 8-0, with great momentum.

The Celtics coach Larania Jia is still there, chatting casually with another coach on the sidelines, and has no intention of calling a timeout.

Jianghu didn't bother to remind him, anyway, the game was played for four quarters, not one.

The game is still going on. The Lakers are even more crazy about Jaylen Brown's double-team this time. Before Brown has the ball, Caruso sticks to him. When Brown gets the ball, Hart is like a bull in heat. He was entangled tightly, and today he has difficulty breathing...

Fortunately, Brown carried out targeted training on holding the ball in the summer, so he didn't lose the ball.

He was lucky, and after leaping high, he passed the ball to Dmitry Jackson in the corner.

Jackson belongs to the big open space, and there is no one around three meters.

According to normal thinking, he should shoot three-pointers.

All Celtics players and fans expect him to shoot threes.

But this guy, he dare not...

His three-point shooting rate is too bad, and he has no confidence in shooting at all...

So he was ready to kill the ball to the basket.

Just started...

"beep~"

The referee blew his whistle and pointed to the sideline. Jackson stepped on the line and fouled...

The Lakers players looked excited, and the Lakers fans fell into continuous madness.

Turning against the wind, those who like to watch competitive sports, who doesn't like this drama...

Jianghu sat on the court and laughed. He didn't know where this Jackson was found. Could it be that he was randomly caught from the street?
It's just playing ball, how can you be so stupid?

When you make a mistake, there is a high probability that your opponent will punish you.

This sentence is simply the truth for basketball games.

Jackson stepped on the line instead of making a wide-open three-pointer, and the Lakers continued to attack.

After losing Ball, the Lakers' ball-handling core became Josh Hart.

As Villanova's starting shooting guard, he once helped the team win the NCAA championship and hit many key goals in March Madness.

He's never nervous about the big game, and it's just summer league.

There are 42 seconds remaining in the first quarter.

Glancing at the timer, Hart directly broke through with the ball, knocked away Jianghu's substitute Scott Wood in one step, and went to the basket to challenge Ojeleye.

Ojelay performed well this time. He grasped the timing of the jump and took off at the same time as Hart took off. The two collided with each other in the air to confront each other.

Hart missed a layup and didn't give up. He jumped up and competed for the rebound as soon as he landed. The two confronted again. This time it was Hart who had the upper hand. Li grabbed the rebound.

When Hart was about to take off for the third layup, Wood, who had just been passed by him, rushed to the basket and teamed up with Ojelai to double-team him.

Hart was caught in a stop, and when he was about to make a turnover, he heard the sound of "here" from the right corner.

He flicked the ball from Wood's armpit to the right corner without hesitation.

The guy in the corner is Kuzma, and here's his range.

He caught the ball and shot directly, and Jaylen Brown rushed over to take off and defend immediately.

Kuzma faced Jaylen Brown's defense and shot the ball over Brown's fingertips by virtue of his height and wingspan.

"Crack." The sound of thugs.

"Beep~" the whistle sounded.

"Oh oh oh oh~~~" This is the crazy cry of the Lakers fans.

"Hart grabs the offensive rebound and passes it to Kuzma in the corner with two double-teams."

"Kuzma catches the ball and throws it against Jaylen Brown's defense!!"

"The referee whistled, this is a tough 3+1!"

"The Lakers played a wave of 11:0 spurts, chasing the point difference back to only 6 points!!"

"After the Celtics' number one star went off the field, the Lakers, who were at most 17 points behind, did not choose to give up."

"Even though they lost their main point guard, Lonzo Ball, they are still fighting hard!!"

"They used practical actions to tell the world and the Celtics that even if it was a summer league match, it would not be so easy for the Celtics to win against the Lakers!!"

"Kuzma made a free throw and the score between the two sides came to 27:22."

"The suspense of the game is back, and the situation is starting to get interesting again..."
