the great gatsby

Chapter 600 Deep Thought Leonard!

The Lakers chose to play with a one-star four-shot tactic. In fact, the same is true for the Knicks. Once the Knicks use pass and cut, the Lakers can also defend in a targeted manner. However, the Knicks now prefer a one-star four-shot play. .

So the scene was very interesting. The Lakers used Gatsby to break through and score the ball, while the Knicks used Leonard to break through and score the ball. The scores of both sides rose alternately.

Yang Yi was quite surprised: "Gatsby couldn't guard Leonard in singles, but Wesley Johnson couldn't guard Leonard's singles either, which made it difficult for both sides to open up the score. I think Gatsby might be able to go Let Leonard go, if Leonard is restricted, maybe the Lakers can take the lead?"

Director Zhang said with a smile: "Maybe it's not that Gatsby doesn't want to defend Leonard, but it's a strategy. Leonard needs to work hard on the offensive end, and the defensive end is facing the most powerful player on the planet, Gates." Bi, can he really last until the second half?"

Yang Yi was thoughtful, this is really possible.

The scene looks good enough. Hero Ball. Gatsby and Leonard are the team leaders respectively, leading the team forward. On the one hand, people are lamenting that Leonard has grown to such an extent. On the other hand, they are I lament that Gatsby's vision is really sharp.

If, I mean if, if Gatsby wasn't forced out of the Knicks by the league, what about anyone else?
Speaking of Gatsby's vision, the people Gatsby selected, Leonard, Thompson, Jeremy Lin, Stephenson, Antetokounmpo, Jokic, Embiid, which one is not the future hope of the league.

These people are now favored by people, and the Knicks monopolize Leonard, Thompson, Antetokounmpo, and Green. This is a trend to dominate the entire league.

But now Gatsby was the first to suffer the consequences.

Gatsby gathered them to the Knicks and moved to the Lakers himself. These young people have now become Gatsby's opponents.

After the second quarter, the Knicks led by 6 points.

On the way back to the locker room, Kobe hooked Gatsby's neck with one hand and whispered, "You put all those young people together to create a super Knicks. Have you ever thought that one day, you No longer in the Knicks, they will be your opponents?"

Gatsby smiled wryly and said: "To be honest, I really haven't. I bought the team, so why would I want to leave the team? That shitty Silver, if it wasn't for him, I would have taken them to sweep the next six A championship, how could we be in today’s situation.”

Kobe smiled wetly and gloated: "If it weren't for this, we would not be where we are today. If you take the Lakers to beat the Knicks, you think the stronger the Knicks, the more people will think you are stronger."

Gatsby smiled wryly and shook his head: "Okay, but I still want to win this championship. They are strong enough, but winning or losing is not just about strength..."

"...There are cheats!" Gatsby didn't say this, he hid in the bathroom, and when he came out again, he was full of energy.

Gatsby and Jim Iron said: "Coach, Kawhi left the second half to me, he won't have another chance."

Jim Ain hesitated again: "...your physical strength?"

Gatsby smiled and said: "My physical strength has never been a problem, it's okay, it's just like this, if Leonard is restricted by me, they will have to switch to passing and cutting, and then they need to make arrangements."

Jim Ain nodded: "I understand this, just play as we discussed in advance."

Game back.

D'Antoni found out that the Lakers had changed their defenders - Gatsby went to guard Leonard!
His face changed, and it turned out that things were really not simple.

Leonard wanted to challenge Gatsby. Seeing Gatsby coming up, he decisively played singles. After two dribbles under the crotch, he suddenly broke through to the right. Gatsby's footsteps were fast, and Leonard was not prepared to pass in one step. With one hand across his chest, he intends to confront Gatsby, and after carrying Gatsby away, he is in the middle distance.

He exerted his strength suddenly, but Gatsby was not thrown far away. Leonard used the reaction force to jump up for a mid-range shot, but Gatsby jumped up suddenly, and slapped the ball out of bounds!
"Hey!" The Staples Center became a sensation.

Leonard had no expression on his face, but Gatsby could see the unyielding look in his eyes.

"Heh, sure enough Leonard is still ambitious. Although he pretends well, he is indeed very ambitious." Gatsby laughed inwardly.

Leonard is a very low-key person, but he is not low-key in his work. He fell out with the Spurs in his previous life and forced the Spurs to trade. When the Raptors won the championship, they released the Lakers. Refers to the championship!
What a hero!
In the previous life, when Gatsby knew about Leonard's choice, he connected everything together and knew that this young man was a deep-minded person, but this had nothing to do with Gatsby's selection of him. For the team, Players just need to play well.

Relatively speaking, Gatsby likes Thompson, who is simple-minded, free-spirited, and plays very hard. This is Gatsby's favorite friend.

Too extreme, Gatsby doesn't like it.

Green is too careless, Antetokounmpo is a bit inferior, Leonard is deep-minded, Harris is not bad, Jokic is a bit lazy, and his temperament is a bit cold. In comparison, Thompson is the most suitable for Gatsby. Oh, and Curry .

Like Kobe, you can also be friends, but Kobe’s character Gatsby doesn’t like it very much. Like James, Gatsby admits that he is a very good player, but there is really no way to be friends. Conspire with each other.

If Leonard wants to achieve greatness, he must break away from Gatsby's shadow. He must challenge Gatsby. The best thing is to defeat Gatsby in this round of finals. In this way, he can break away from Gatsby's shadow. Shadow, no matter where he goes from now on, he will be able to compete with Gatsby.

Leonard knows a lot and thinks a lot. He knows that Gatsby is the real owner of the Knicks, so it will be a matter of time before Gatsby returns to the Knicks. At that time, the team will be dominated by Gatsby again. What will he do then?
Stay in the team and continue to be the second or third master?

This is not what Leonard wants. What he wants is to copy Gatsby's path and become at least the top three great stars in the league. This is his pursuit!
This is the difference between Leonard and Thompson. Thompson can be happy as a second master and focus on his basketball, but Leonard can’t. Maybe this is different from technical characteristics. Leonard’s style of play is the core style of play. , Thompson's style of play is actually an extreme 3D player. It is normal for technical characteristics to determine the choice.
