I just play ball

Chapter 31 Are you ready
On the court, the Knicks attacked.

Felton took the ball to the frontcourt, and Brewer and Anthony stepped up to the left wing to stand still, making it clear that they would repeat the previous two offensive tactics.Li Yue looked at the top of the arc immediately, and Kobe happened to look at him, and the two looked at each other, as if they had agreed on something.

JR used double screens to rush to the bottom corner with ease.Li Yue and Gasol stepped back in a hurry, leaving enough space for one person to pass through. Kobe bypassed Brewer and Anthony and chased wildly. It was as fast as if the NBA2K game used a modifier to adjust the speed to 100, and was only half a body behind. position, and then Li Yue and Gasol re-attached defense.

Felton didn't dare to take the risk of passing the ball, and gestured with his eyes again and again,

Seeing this, Anthony immediately turned around and rushed to the top of the arc, and Brewer quickly made a side cover.

Li Yue went around to chase, took a shortcut and cut diagonally, stopping Anthony abruptly.

But Anthony continued to run forward, received a hand-off pass from Felton, and dribbled the ball to the right in a wide range.

Nash took a step forward and pulled back after delaying his dribbling speed. Li Yue gained valuable catching time and successfully blocked Anthony at 45 degrees to the right, with only 6 seconds left in the attack time.

Anthony waved immediately, Chandler and the others exited the three-second zone, and the Knicks' offense turned into a one-on-one one-on-one.

After hitting the ball several times in a row, Anthony raised his shoulders and dribbled to the right to break through.

With such an offensive method, Li Yue believed that Anthony would use a turnaround jump shot as the finishing method, and decisively resisted. Considering his weight and strength, he crossed his feet back and forth, and his center of gravity was as low as the limit, as if he was propping up a wall.

Anthony didn't move, and took a step back involuntarily, as if being rebounded.

The fans at the scene laughed and booed, Anthony couldn't hold back his face, and he lowered his shoulders and tried his best.

For a split second, Li Yue sideways moved half of his body away, and Anthony had nowhere to use his strength, so he staggered forward.

Snapped!Li Yue stooped to steal the basketball and pushed it forward, like a hungry dog ​​seeing a bun.

Kobe and Nash followed up one after another, delaying Felton and JR respectively, but Anthony struggled to catch up but it was too late.

Li Yue drove straight in, completely unguarded, and the fans applauded and cheered in advance.

boom!Split buckle with one hand.

Li Yue scored 12 points in a row without any celebration. After landing, he turned around and ran to the frontcourt, just in time to find that Anthony stopped and stood on the center line, raising his hands and waving back and forth.

But the basketball flew faster, Anthony received the ball and sprinted forward, and Li Yue continued to catch up.

Gasol, who retreated to the defense, was forced to step forward and delay, but Anthony kept his feet up but raised his right hand to throw the ball high to the free throw line.

When Brewer received the basketball, he was afraid of changing his rhythm, and then he hugged his hands and started three steps. Perhaps there was no defense at the basket, and he felt [-]% safe. His speed was relatively slow, like an amateur player practicing at home.

"Quick!" Anthony shouted suddenly, with a hint of despair in his tone.

As soon as the words fell, there was a bang, and Li Yue nailed the big hat!

The sound was like a bomb going off, and Brewer put his head in his hands, thinking it was an emergency.

The basketball hit the board and bounced backwards. Gasol and Anthony stepped forward to fight for it. The two collided and neither of them took advantage.

Li Yue stooped to rush up to snatch the basketball, looked up and saw that Kobe had arrived in the frontcourt, and quickly made a quarterback long pass.

The basketball fell into Kobe's hands precisely like a high-speed missile, and it was another one-handed dunk.

The cheers of the fans resounded throughout the arena, the point difference between the two teams further widened, and the Knicks requested a timeout.

...

The Lakers returned to the bench, and D'Antoni grabbed Li Yue and praised him fiercely, with various compliments one after another.

Li Yue listened and laughed, feeling flattered in his heart. He happened to find that although Howard was also smiling, the smile on his face was not as warm and innocent as before. Instead, there was a trace of helplessness, as if he saw his brother succeed, but he was sincerely blessed but couldn't avoid jealousy. .

Li Yue thought about it carefully, and speculated that his performance was too eye-catching, Howard didn't get a chance at all, and several attacks were pure blue-collar players.Thinking of this, he decided to try his best to create some opportunities for Howard.

The pause ended in a blink of an eye.

The Lakers led too much, D'Antoni temporarily adjusted his playing plan, arranged for Gasol, Kobe, and Nash to stay off the court to rest, and replaced Clark, Meeks, and Blake, while the Knicks only replaced Brewer with Thomas.

The game continued, Felton received the ball in the backcourt and advanced, Anthony and JR separated the left and right wings of the frontcourt, Thomas stood at the top of the arc, Chandler squatted in the low position on the right side, and the Knicks settled in a 4-out and 1-in formation.

Soon, Felton got the ball to the top of the key, and Thomas stepped up to cover the side.

Li Yue was about to judge the tactic based on the direction of his breakthrough. Anthony suddenly accelerated and ran back, so he had to give up thinking and follow up.It was about to catch up, but Chandler moved half a step sideways to cover, so Howard could only switch to defend first and delay, and he changed to defend Chandler himself.

The basket has a small defense and almost no advantage. Felton immediately passed the ball, and Li Yue went around and rushed forward.

Although the height gap is huge, it still poses a little threat. Chandler safely circled to the other side to catch the ball, and still held it high. Li Yue was powerless to stop him, but Howard strode back in such a short time.

boom!The basketball was slapped to the left sideline and landed right in Blake's hands.

Li Yue was overjoyed when he saw this, and followed up from the middle with Howard, and Meeks followed up from the right at the same time, and the Lakers quickly went down the third line.

JR chased after him madly, but his speed was still not as fast as that of 'White Flash' Blake. After crossing the center line, he quickly reached out to hug him!

Obviously wanting a tactical foul, Blake took the ball first, Li Yue received it and continued to advance, rushed all the way to the free throw line, embraced with both hands, leaning on Anthony with two consecutive strides, leaped high, threw the ball and hit the board, It's like deliberately not scoring a goal!
More than 8000 fans at the scene looked stupid, but Howard immediately stood up, catching the ball with both hands and violently hitting the frame.

Buckle Anthony!
And knocked to the ground!

In the Staples Center, cheers suddenly exploded like thunder in the clear sky!
Li Gao raised his hands and high-fived Howard with a big smile on his face.

Anthony got up from the floor with a gloomy face, picked up the basketball and passed it to Felton. After stepping on the court, he immediately returned the basketball. He quickly walked to the frontcourt, staring at the ring without saying a word, as if calculating What.

Except for Chandler who stepped forward to pick and roll, other Knicks players spread out to show space.

Li Yue secretly guessed Anthony's intentions, and waved his hand to signal the delay, and Howard immediately followed suit.

Just like that, Li Yue squeezed through the cover to catch up, directly attacked, and even let Howard double-team.

Anthony wanted to play hard, but he was powerless in the face of the two defensive champions, so he had no choice but to give the ball to Chandler.

Seeing this, Clark moved laterally to intercept, and the basketball flew into Thomas's hands, completely unguarded.

Considering that Thomas made 8 of 2 shots before, Li Yue turned around and ran forward.

Sure enough, with a bang, the basketball hit the basket and hit the iron. Clark easily grabbed the rebound and directly swung his arm for a long pass.

Li Yue caught the ball from the center line and boasted. From the corner of his eye, he saw Howard following up, but there were no Knicks players chasing him, so he slowed down immediately.The two reached the free throw line with their front and back feet, Li Yue lightly threw the basketball, Howard dunked in the air, and cheers rang out again in the arena.

...

The third quarter ended in an instant, and the Lakers led by more than 20 points.

In order not to let the opponent retain too much hope, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, D'Antoni sent Kobe, Gasol and Nash who had been resting for a long time, while the Knicks still had a regular rotation, and the second team played a few games first. minute.

Between one positive and one negative, the point difference continued to widen.

Mike Woodson was forced to replace the main player in advance, but JR and Felton missed consecutive three-pointers, and the Knicks lost all momentum.

In the end, the Lakers beat the Knicks 104 to 88, winning three consecutive victories.

Li Yue scored a 20+ double-double and accepted a post-match interview with Howard who grabbed 24 rebounds.

After a series of official questions and official answers, Howard snatched the microphone from the reporter without warning, put his arm around Li Yue's shoulder, and said straight to the camera: "Li Yue is one of the best small forwards I have ever worked with. He played with him like he used to play with Josh Smith, it was very easy."

...

Back in the locker room, Li Yue quickly took a shower and changed clothes, and was led by the staff to the VIP parking lot.

The Lakers need to fly to Miami overnight. The team's exclusive bus has arrived, and several people from the management team are chatting together.

Li Yue took two boxes of lunch, set up the suitcase as a table, and prepared to eat while waiting for other teammates to arrive.

But I ate a few mouthfuls casually, it was really not to my appetite, so I had to put it away and put it in a garbage bag.

Just about to get up and throw it into the trash bag, the general manager Kupchak walked up to him and said with a smile, "Don't you like it?"

Hearing this, Li Yue glanced at the box lunch place and found that two middle-aged uncles were hard at work packing the boxes. He immediately waved his hands and said, "I personally like slightly spicy food, which is different from everyone else's taste."

As soon as the words fell, Kupchak clapped his hands, "We can prepare it for you alone, you deserve this treatment."

Hearing this, Li Yue suddenly felt a sense of pride in his heart. This is a treatment that even Durant did not have in the Thunder!
But this kind of treatment may also mean that the team chef's workload has increased, so he couldn't help but look at the two uncles again.

"Don't worry, we will hire another chef, and you won't affect other teammates because of you." Kupchak added.

"That's a good relationship! I'll send them the commonly used recipes later." Li Yue snapped his fingers excitedly. Anyway, the Lakers are rich and powerful, and he can also drive employment. One action will benefit the beauty of many people, so why not do it? ?

Kupchak nodded, turned around and walked back to the crowd. Li Yue took out his mobile phone and walked towards the two uncles.

After a while, the entire Lakers boarded the bus, and Corbett deliberately sat next to Li Yue.

"Back-to-back away challenges to LeBron James, the league's strongest small forward, are you ready?"

　There is a delay, so I will make an update today, and ask for tickets again by the way, so that I can feel your presence.
