super small forward

Chapter 30 30. The Uncooperative Liu Ren
The Warriors attacked. Thompson, who was defending Liu Ren just now, was hit by Liu Ren, and he still dunked his own center forward. Thompson felt his face was dull.

He considers himself the best shooting guard in the class of 2011. After a strange transformation last season, not only the changes in the Warriors' record, the biggest change is that these young people have strong self-confidence.

Curry now sets his goal to become the strongest in the league, while Thompson wants to become the strongest shooting guard.

Liu Ren, in Thompson's view, is just a lucky guy who played a few good games without the team.

Was hit by Liu Ren, Thompson wanted to return it!

In this game, D'Antoni asked Liu Ren to defend Thompson, not to defend Curry. Last year, it was because no one used it. Except for Liu Ren, who was fast enough to keep up with Curry, no one else could keep up. Zimmer, there is no need for Liu Ren to defend Curry.

Bazemore's defense is the biggest surprise for the Lakers. Don't say that D'Antoni has no defense. He is sacrificing defense while ensuring offensive efficiency, but there are really good defensive players in his team, and he still reuses them. Gar Bell and Sean Marion both relied on defense to make a living, and they were the main players in the Suns in those years.

Thompson took the initiative to ask Curry for the ball, expressing that he wanted to single the opponent.

Curry still has to give this kind of face, and handed the ball to Thompson.

Thompson changed directions continuously, but was blocked by Liu Ren. He forced his way into the inside lane for a layup, but was slapped down by Liu Ren and slapped him out of bounds!
Thompson's strength wants to squeeze Liu Ren?Basically impossible, Liu Ren deliberately left Thompson with space to cut to the bottom line, deliberately induced the latter to go that way, and then slapped the opponent off.

Thompson was shocked when he saw Liu Ren, who seemed to be taller than last year.

When the two met for the last time last year, Liu Ren was a little shorter than Thompson, and now Thompson obviously feels that the other party seems to be taller than himself!And the strength is stronger, being hit by Liu Ren feels more uncomfortable than being hit by monsters like James and Artest!
Liu Ren feels that his condition is very good now, he can now confirm that he is better than his opponent!
Confidence, just like the opponent's confidence last year, Liu Ren is full of confidence now. Once this confidence comes, Liu Ren, who is already stronger than the opponent, presses Thompson to play. When scoring at the basket, the defensive end relies on his body to suppress the opponent, preventing the opponent from making a three-pointer. When the opponent rushes to the basket, he traps Thompson like Green making dumplings.

It didn't take long for Warriors head coach Mark Jackson to stand up to Thompson's nonsense and let Curry take charge, and the Warriors' offense began to open.

But at this time, the Lakers had already relied on Liu Ren to force Thompson to lead by 10 points several times in a row, and the initiative was taken by the Lakers.

The Warriors' offense was basically played by Curry and Thompson in turns. Iguodala was the defensive leader in the hands of Mark Jackson. Seeing that Thompson couldn't defend Liu Ren, he asked Iguodala to defend Liu Ren.

Iguodala's defense mainly relies on physical fitness to crush opponents. His strong body is the nightmare of many offensive players.But better than his physical fitness, his defensive effect is not great.This kind of opponent Liu Ren who relies on his physical fitness to defend is his favorite!
The fans at the scene were overjoyed today. When have you ever seen a Chinese outside player use his body to crush an NBA guard?And he is also a defensive player like Iguodala and Thompson that people talk about!
Originally, people's attention to this game was to see Kobe sitting on the sidelines, and see if Gasol could play well with this group of young people. Not many people expected the Lakers to win the Warriors, and Liu Ren was just caught Be a lucky guy who gets a high salary.

But Liu Ren told them with practical actions that this is his territory!
Breaking through, catching the ball in the air, attacking the basket, and attacking the rebound for the second time, Liu Ren is omnipotent inside. Going to the free throw line, Liu Ren, who recovered his shooting bag, steadily took the points from the opponent.

Curry, who originally wanted to organize an offense, saw that Thompson was being stalked by Liu Ren, so he had no choice but to swing the ball and shoot outside the three-point line.

At this time, Curry has [-]% of the level of the two-match MVP period, and it is very scary. The key is to come to Wukesong, a geomantic treasure, and it seems to feel good. No matter how well Bazemore defends, he can defend Curry. The whole body's movements are deformed, but Curry can throw the ball into the basket even if he is lying down.

Curry's performance made Yang Yi's guest on the imperial court yell: "See, this is a pervert!"

Liu Ren, who played the entire first quarter, scored 23 points in a single quarter, leading the Lakers 35 to 23 ahead of the Warriors by 12 points. Liu Ren scored alone and caught up with the opponent team.

The Warriors were known for their defense and double shots in the backcourt last year. They won by relying on the overall defense of the team and the shooting of Curry and Thompson. Now that the two shots are useless, the defense has been torn apart by Liu Ren. They are not the opponents of the Lakers at all. .

Liu Ren was replaced in the second quarter, and D'Antoni asked him to rest. He didn't plan to let the main players play in the rest of the game.

In the first quarter, D'Antoni asked Liu Ren to let go, so that the players and fans could see the strength of their new top scorer on the outside. The position ability and breakthrough ability have been played better, which has improved significantly compared to last season. The defensive combination of Thompson, Iguodala, and Bogut can't form much influence on him.

However, in the eyes of Yang Yi, a guest commentator on the Imperial TV station, it's just Liu Ren's luck...

"The Warriors know that Iguodala just got him. Iguodala's level is declining every year. Look at this ball. He can't keep up with Liu Ren. He really started to decline. And that Bogut, he should be called Slow Gut, so slow, the Warriors have no one to defend..." Yang Yi scolded.

Yang Jian on the side didn't know how to answer the conversation. He felt that this guy was Liu Ren's black fan.

Yang Yi kept cursing Liu Ren in his heart. If the curse could come true, he would have died countless times, and it was his turn to curse others...

Obviously, Yang Yi's face was swollen by Liu Ren's performance of scoring 9 points in 7 of 23 in the first quarter, but he still has to be fat!There are two kinds of people in the job of guest commentator. The first one is based on ability, strong professional knowledge, fair commentary, and logical language.

The second type relies on shamelessness. In the era when cats and dogs can be teachers, these cats and dogs always want to make themselves look good, and don't want others to know that they are cats and dogs.

The shameless kind likes to come up with some novel viewpoints to prove that they are different. This kind of viewpoint is generally very advanced. If the prediction is correct, it means that he is powerful. If the prediction is wrong, he will find some reasons to justify himself. Argue yourself.

Unfortunately, Liu Ren became the object of Yang Yi's argument, but his performance did not match Yang Yi's. Yang Yi predicted that he would not play well and become a hot chicken contract, but his performance made his opponent look like Spicy chicken contract...

If Liu Ren knew Yang Yi's current thoughts, he would definitely regret why he didn't shoot a few outside shots to get more points just now, and he was mad at the opponent.
