Start without the ball

Chapter 266

Donovan frowned, and he also realized that things were not going well, and he was always wondering whether to change back to Li Haoyu.

If Li Haoyu was allowed to return to the court, although the offensive problem could be solved, the 5 points the Warriors just scored would be for nothing, and he would not be able to gain an advantage from the substitution.

But the current situation on the field urgently requires Li Haoyu to play to contain him.

Bayer saw Donovan's concern: "You want to replace Lee?"

Donovan: "I'm a little hesitant. Lee hasn't had a long rest off the court. If he is replaced at this time, my previous actions are equivalent to a big failure. I can't accept this."

Bayer smiled slightly and patted Donovan on the shoulder:

"Just follow your heart and trust them."

Donovan nodded slightly, looking intently at the field, when Westbrook crossed the center line.

Although Brother Gui's brain is only the size of a capsule, he also understands that the attack is difficult now. At this moment, Adams was preparing to cover at the top of the arc.

Yup!

Our Thunder is not only outside!
Westbrook directed Tiesen on the left to go to the right, and pointed to the low position at Neptune.

The two have cooperated for many years, and Adams understands that the 120KG Aquaman has a 100KG weight advantage over the 20KG Rooney, and he is crushed in terms of strength!
更别说海王身高2米13，鲁尼报名身高2米05，真正的身高应该是2米09，亚当斯依然有着优势。

Sea King effortlessly got the basketball one step away from the three-second zone, and after sensing the defense, he chiseled inside.

With an absolute advantage in strength, Rooney could not make an effective defense and retreated repeatedly.

Adams came to the edge of the three-second zone, resisted Rooney hard, stepped into the three-second zone with his left foot, turned to the basket, grabbed the basketball with his right hand and raised it high, and flicked his wrist hard.

shuh~
Easy hit, Rooney completely unable to stop Adams in the pace of attack in the low post.

Barkley: "Except for Jokic, Adams' hook is the best among active centers, right?"

O'Neill: "Jokic has a soft touch, Adams has another style, his hook press is very hard and steady, as long as he comes to the offensive area, his hook hit rate is quite high .”

Barkley: "Super teams always have weaknesses. Their All-Stars occupy a lot of salary space, which makes it difficult to guarantee the quality of their tool players. It is difficult for Rooney to get other playoff teams to start."

In the next few minutes, the Thunder relied on Adams' low-post attack to regain their offensive rhythm. During this time, Thompson began to exert force. three points.

Donovan called a timeout, called Li Haoyu and the rotation team to his side, and said, "Li, Russell and the others bought you enough time, are you fully recovered now?"

Li Haoyu nodded slightly, he is in excellent physical condition now.

"Okay, then it's up to you. Now is an excellent opportunity for us to widen the gap and unleash your explosive scoring ability in the transition period. Others cooperate with Li. Do you understand?"

Everyone nodded, and after the timeout, they changed their lineups and returned to the field.

Thunder: center Noelle, power forward Morris, small forward Ferguson, shooting guard Li Haoyu, point guard Schroeder.

Warriors: Center Jones, power forward Bell, small forward Jerebko, shooting guard Livingston, point guard Curry.

O'Neal: "Curry is still on the court, I don't know how his physical condition is."

Barkley: "Kevin's absence has affected the Warriors' rotation, and Curry can only stand up and take on more responsibilities."

The Warriors attacked. In order to save Curry's energy, Livingston advanced with the ball, and Li Haoyu took two steps away from the top of the arc and waited with a heavy heart.

Curry sank in the right corner. When Livingston reached the frontcourt, Curry used Jones's screen to lift the right 45 degrees to receive the ball.

When Jones ran to the bottom corner, the corner of Li Haoyu's mouth rose. He is a man with a ceiling in the off-ball world, and he saw through Curry's intentions at a glance.

Li Haoyu immediately stepped forward and came to the right, blocking the passing route of Livingston and Curry.

Of course, this approach completely empties the left side to Livingston.

Li Haoyu blocked the passing route and helped Schroeder buy time. At this time, he had returned to the defensive position.

I wanted to pass the ball to Curry, but encountered obstacles at this time, so Livingston had no choice but to bite the bullet and accelerate from the left to the basket.

Li Haoyu slid hard beside Livingston without losing his defensive position.

When the Warriors defender entered the inside line, Ferguson in the left corner decisively double-teamed, and Livingston passed the ball to Jerebko, who was emptied in the corner, and the latter made a decisive three-pointer.

boom!
The iron was struck, and the rebound bounced to where Li Haoyu and Livingston were.

The Warriors guard went forward with all his strength, trying to get closer to the rebound, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make any progress.

"You're thinking about farting, this is my backboard!"

Li Haoyu sank his center of gravity and stuck Livingston firmly. You must know that he is a man who can protect the backcourt rebounds from Jokic. A mere Livingston, it is impossible to cause any obstacles to him.

After protecting the rebound, Li Haoyu passed the ball to Schroeder.

O'Neill: "Livingston's current state is not as good as it was a few years ago. If it was two years ago, Lee would never dare to defend like this."

Barkley: "Time is a butcher's knife, he is no longer in the same state as before."

The Thunder attacked, Li Haoyu ran to the frontcourt, caught the basketball at 45 degrees on the left side, clamped the ball to his side, and raised his hand to indicate tactics.

Livingston was ready for battle, and Cole gave him a death order to limit Li Haoyu's performance.

Li Haoyu dribbled the ball with his right hand, and pointed to Livingston's side with his left.

Sure enough, it was about to come to cover. The experienced Livingston looked to his side from the corner of his eye. When he saw that there was no one beside him, Livingston knew that he had been fooled.

Li Haoyu seized the opportunity of the Warriors guard's distraction and accelerated to the basket, but this was not enough to help completely get rid of the defense.

Livingston just adjusted slightly, and followed Li Haoyu's side.

There is no absolute advantage in speed and strength. For a while, Li Haoyu couldn't get rid of Livingston. Seeing that he was about to come inside, Livingston thought that this defense was successful!

At this moment, Li Haoyu stretched out his evil hand and grabbed Livingston's arm.

At the battle meeting, the Warriors coaching staff repeatedly emphasized the need to be careful of Li Haoyu's foul-making ability. Livingston felt like being electrocuted, and quickly put his hands back behind his back.

This affected Livingston's body balance, and his speed slowed down. Li Haoyu led by half a body, stuck Livingston on the side with his body, and shot the basket with his right hand.

shuh~
The basketball passed through the net, Li Haoyu broke through and scored 2 points, 27 to 22.
