I just play ball

Chapter 412

What Li Yue said was from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't intend to flatter. Kobe had an exclusive system for how to formulate tactics, such as the famous "teaming players who have not yet received big contracts, and letting players who have already received big contracts".

Kobe laughed lightly, raised his hands and clapped his hands, and shouted, "Everyone is doing very well, especially Jordan, keep going."

After being praised by the boss, Clarkson nodded excitedly, as if he had been buffed and his fighting spirit was full.

The 20-second pause ended in a blink of an eye, the whistle sounded, and the game continued.

The Eagles did not make personnel adjustments. Teague caught the ball from the bottom line in the backcourt and slowly advanced forward. The audience shouted for cheer.

The Eagles' tactics still pass through the three positions of left wing-top of the arc-right wing. Korver receives the ball and waits with his hands raised.

At this time, Landry is on the right waist to block Millsap, almost completely blocking the passing route.

On the left side of the half, the Eagles also failed to run out of open opportunities to catch the ball, and the offense stalled.

The Hawks' offense is too regular, and compared to the Spurs lineup, Korver lacks the threat of breaking through with the ball, and Sefolosha lacks the threat of hitting the basket. Den Holzer is well-managed, and the Eagles are diligent and diligent. Everyone is willing to move according to tactics, but the Lakers are also well-disciplined and can make predictions.

The offensive clock ticked away, and there were only 13 seconds left in the blink of an eye. Budenholzer raised his hand and waved. Millsap retreated to get rid of Landry. Take a triple threat pose.

The rest of the Eagles left one after another, leaving a large space in the right half, and the audience cheered and cheered.

I saw Millsap crossing and swaying, and then stepped down the ball and rushed to the bottom line. His fat body was close to Landry and rushed to the basket. Hit the board with the backhand pull bar.

boom!The basketball bounces off the backboard and into the net.

The Eagles finally scored, 9-2.

The Lakers attacked, Li Yue received the ball, and quickly brought it to the right wing of the front court. Seeing that Landry raised his hands to ask for it, he immediately raised his hands and pretended to pass. Take cover.

Landry tacitly followed the uplift wall as a screen, and then disassembled the inside cut, received the pass from Clarkson in the short corner on the right, and calmly shot a large open mid-range shot.

Millsap's return to defense was too slow, the basketball went into the net hollow, ANSWERBALL!

Landry clapped his hands in the air, as if he had let out a sigh of relief, and he was very happy.

The Eagles attacked and Teague took the ball to the left wing.

Korver started from the left corner, covered by Horford, and went straight to the three-point line.

Li Yue dodged and squeezed through the cover, and continued to chase like a magnet with N pole looking for S pole, and forcibly completed the interception.

Teague immediately raised his hands, made a pass to the short corner on the left, and then used Horford's cover to go straight to the bottom line.

Horford held the ball high, but immediately put it down and passed it back hand in hand.

Teague catches the ball and rushes to the basket, fails to shake off Clarkson, hesitates for a moment and does not dare to make a layup, slowly runs to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, and uses Millsap to cover and break through the right. But still failed to get rid of Clarkson and Landry double-teaming.

The others on the scene just watched him dribble quietly for 20 seconds!
Unexpectedly, he stopped and twisted his hips on the right waist, raised his hand and threw the ball to the top of the arc.

Millsap received the ball and hurriedly raised his hand to shoot, without any protective action, completely exposing the basketball.

Li Yue happened to run over to defend. Seeing this opportunity, he subconsciously raised his hand and took a quick shot.

Snapped!The basketball is forced to fly to the center line.

Millsap turned around quickly, but Li Yue took advantage of the momentum and accelerated his sprint, grabbed the basketball first, and went straight to the frontcourt.

Clarkson followed up from the sideline, and the two faced Millsap alone in the frontcourt. Li Yue rushed to the free throw line and passed the ball with an emergency stop. Clarkson received it and rushed to the basket in the blink of an eye. buckle.

The Eagles attacked, Teague dribbled the ball to the center line, passed it to Sefolosha on the right wing, and quickly ran to the left wing to stand still.

Sefolosha received the ball and passed it to the top of the arc. Horford took the ball and subconsciously turned to face the left wing.

Teague stepped up and was intercepted by Clarkson, so he turned around and returned to the left wing.

Seeing that the pass was hopeless, Horford turned to the right, passed the ball back, and moved laterally to set up a wall as a screen.

Sefolosha received the ball and moved it to the top of the arc, stopped and waited with his hands raised.

The Eagles' offense stalled again, Budenholzer frowned slightly, and waved again.

Millsap raised his left elbow from a low position, but he took the basketball and waited with it held high.

The Eagles' tactics are useless in front of the Lakers!

With only 8 seconds left in the attack, Millsap dribbled the ball sideways to the left wing, handed it to Teague, and screened by the way.

Teague took the opportunity to go to the bottom line and rushed, and besides Clarkson and Landry on the lake side, the others also shrank to the paint area.

In the chaos, Teague suddenly jumped up and made a long pass towards the 45-degree three-point line on the right.

Sefolosha received the ball in an open position, jumped up, and shot a three-pointer.

when!The smashing basket fell.

Davis rebounded and the Lakers launched a fast break.

Clarkson dribbled the ball to the top of the frontcourt arc, and with the help of Li Yue's cover, he went directly to the inside.

Korver chased to the basket with all his strength, Clarkson made a sudden stop and turned around to shoot. The two collided with one high and one low.

The shot hit the iron, and the referee blew his whistle to call a foul, but it was not counted as a shooting foul.

The Lakers got the right to the sideline, Kobe waved again and again, Li Yue and others ran to the side and listened carefully.

The referee quickly finished the arrangement, and Li Yue stood outside the bounds to serve. Seeing that the Eagles were not desperately defending, he threw it to his right elbow.

Landry picked up and waited, and Li Yue rushed into the field and went straight to the basket, trying to copy the back door.

It's a pity that Korver was already prepared, so he had to turn around and return to the right wing, receive a pass from Landry, and strode towards the top of the arc.

Seeing that Millsap stayed at the free throw line, he didn't have the slightest intention of going up and changing defenses, so he made an emergency stop and made a mid-range shot.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Davis jumped up, caught the ball against Horford, turned around on the ground, and passed the top of the arc.

The Eagles' defensive attention shifted to Li Yue, including Horford who was in charge of defending Davis.

Li Yue held the ball with both hands and pushed it straight to the basket. Davis received the pass and dunked on the spot.

"Offensive three-second violation, three-second violation!" An Eagles player shouted loudly, and the referees stared at him with blank eyes.

13 to 2, the Lakers lead by a large margin, and the neat cheers in Phillips Arena turned into chaotic complaints.

The Eagles attacked and Teague took the ball to the right wing.

There is no outside conduction, and no fake fax hang, just bend over and hit the ground to Horford.

To grab the score!

Horford caught the ball and turned to face the basket. He took continuous steps with his left foot as the axis, and suddenly took off to make a mid-range shot.

Swish!Hollow into the net, 13 to 4.

The Lakers attacked, and Li Yue ran to the short corner on the left to stand still.

Clarkson dribbled the ball forward and continuously signaled to play back tactics.

Seeing this situation, Li Yue kicked off the ground and rushed to the basket. With the help of Iguodala's off-ball screen, he successfully circled to the right waist.

Korver chased after him, and Li Yue caught the ball with his back, and directly hit the top with no foreplay.

Korver couldn't bear it, he backed up again and again, Li Yue took the ball along the way, stepped forward, turned and took off.

But before he could make a shot, Korver slapped his arm with a slap, and it hurt hotly.

The basketball was not released, but the referee blew his whistle first, called a foul, and gave the ball to the sideline.

Kobe waved his hand and signaled Li Yue to make arrangements for himself. The excitement at the beginning of the show was gone, and he seemed a little bit dispirited.

Probably because the opponent is weak and can guess everything. Without challenges, there is no sense of accomplishment.

The referee whistled, Davis served from the left wing, Clarkson received it, and took it all the way to the right wing along the three-point line.

Perhaps knowing that Clarkson's three-point shooting rate was not good, Teague had the courage to take two big steps back.

Coincidentally, Clarkson really fell into hesitation, as if it was the last moment of G7 of the finals.

Kobe was furious, stood up and yelled for a quick shot, and Clarkson jumped up and shot.

bass!The basketball went into the net hollow, 16 to 4.

Clarkson waved at the bench, and Kobe continued to shout: If they dare to let go, you will punish them.

The Eagles attacked, and Teague rushed to the left wing with the ball, changing hands and shaking on the spot.

Millsap cut in from the top of the arc, received the pass and went straight to the basket. Double-teamed under the basket, he vigorously distributed the ball outward.

Korver received the ball and rushed to the free throw line with his left hand. Instead, he was half a body behind Li Yue.

Teague also rushed with the ball, and couldn't get rid of Clarkson, so he had to find Horford as a cover.

The Lakers flanked as usual, Teague hit the ground and passed the ball, Horford failed to catch it, and in a panic dialed the ball to the left corner.

Millsap didn't know when and where he ran, bent down to pick up the basketball, and raised his hand to score a three-pointer.

bass!The basketball was caught hollow.

16 to 7, the point difference narrowed to 9 points.

There was a burst of cheers in the arena, and the audience seemed to see hope, but Kobe put his knees on one hand and rested his chin, his face full of boredom.

This ball is not the strength of the Eagles, it is purely a crooked shot, and it is a shit luck.

When the Lakers attacked, Li Yue brought the ball to the right wing. He looked up and took a look at the positioning of the players of the two teams. He found that Clarkson and Landry were concentrated at 45 degrees on the left side. They could easily execute double-covering tactics on the flanks. It was difficult to catch up with Korver's speed. .

Another point is that Millsap's defense is not as good as Horford's. Even if he switches defenses in advance, he can deal with it calmly.

After making up his mind, Li Yue bowed and rushed over, and Kobe called out to remind him in the next second, and the two thought of being together almost instantly.

Clarkson and Landry followed the provisional wall to set up a screen. Everything developed as expected. Li Yue easily rushed to the left 45-degree three-point line. Millsap was still at the free throw line to block, and Korver I'm still at the top of the arc.

Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 19 to 7.

The Eagles attacked, Teague rushed to the right wing with the ball, patted on the spot and waited.

Korver started running from the left corner, rushed to the basket with the help of Millsap's cover, twisted his hips and diverted to rush out.

This running position should not be too obvious. Li Yue ignored multiple screens and went directly through the paint to chase.

The two met again in the right elbow area. Korver immediately raised his shoulders and kicked the ground after receiving the ball, as if he wanted to rush to shoot.

Li Yue jumped up subconsciously, but Korver stopped his movement and turned sideways to avoid the big loop before he really jumped up and shot.

when!The basketball hit the hoop and fell.

Davis grabbed the rebound and the Lakers counterattacked.

Li Yue received the ball and pushed forward, feeling in his heart that Korver really has a strong character, such a good opportunity, he didn't draw a foul.

In a blink of an eye, at the top of the arc, all four teammates were below the free throw line, leaving a large space inadvertently.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to call for a pick-and-roll, Kobe shouted for singles from the sidelines, and Nick Young and others followed suit.

Since everyone wants to see it, there is no need to worry about it, but before it starts, Korver steps forward, blocking the right and putting the left.

At the same time, the Horfords turned to face the basket, looking like they were ready to double-team at any time.

"I don't want to break through!" Li Yue was ruthless in his heart, and immediately received the ball and moved sideways, making a three-pointer.

Korver swooped and interfered, but failed to pose the slightest threat. The basketball hit the circle and entered the net, 22 to 7.

"GREAT JOB!" Kobe shouted loudly, and Nick Young led the Lakers to stand up and cheer.

The referee whistled and the game entered an official timeout, with 5 minutes and 57 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

Li Yue returned to the bench, gave high-fives to all his teammates one by one, took the towel and sat down to rest.

D'Antoni smiled and asked Kobe to continue the arrangement. Kobe waved his hand and said bluntly that his opponent was too weak and lacked challenges.
-
After the timeout, Nick Young came on to replace Li Yue, and Marshall came on to replace Clarkson.

The Eagles also had personnel changes, but they replaced Millsap who scored the most points, and the focus of offense was on Horford.

It's a pity that the format of the game has not changed. The Eagles' offensive routines have been completely understood by the Lakers, and the defensive success rate is particularly high.

After the first quarter, the Lakers led 35 to 21.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Eagles substitute Mike Scott played bravely, making 5 consecutive three-pointers and hitting 3 in total, leading the team to a wave of offensive climax, but on the Lakers side, Nick Young, who returned from injury, was strong Carry, in a daze, succeeded in stabilizing the situation before Li Yue and other main players came back, maintaining a 14-point lead from beginning to end.

The main players of the two teams were also encouraged, showing their skills on both offensive and defensive ends, but the Lakers always maintained a suppressive position.

After halftime, the Lakers led 71 to 53.

Back from the halftime break, the Eagles strengthened their defense, but they still couldn't solve Li Yue's efficient singles.

In the end, seven Lakers scored in double figures and defeated the Eagles 7-128, winning ten consecutive victories.

After finishing the post-match interview, the whole team returned to the hotel and planned to stay one night before flying back to Los Angeles.

After supper, Li Yue returned to his room, and first called Chenxi to tell him that he wanted to make a sequel.

After a brief chat, I hung up the phone and logged on to Twitter to check out relevant news.

On the same night, there were three other games. Among the six teams, only the Thunder was considered a strong team. However, due to the absence of Durant and Westbrook due to injuries, the Thunder lost 81 to 98 to the Jazz. The overall record became 3 wins and 7 losses. According to the degree of fierce competition in the Western Conference, it is difficult to enter the playoffs, which is too far from the predictions made in the off-season, and cannot be called the seven heroes of the league.

Looking at it, I suddenly found that the discussion of "who can stop the Lakers" jumped to the top of Twitter's hot chat list.

The 21 ESPN commentators agreed that the overall strength of the Lakers has surpassed the entire league. Traditional teams such as the Rockets, Clippers, Grizzlies, Spurs, and Eagles are basically impossible to beat the Lakers in a seven-game series. Although he hasn't played yet, he is definitely not an opponent. After all, LeBron is one year older, and Love's performance has not met expectations.

The only team that has the potential to beat the Lakers is the Golden State Warriors, who pushed the Lakers to the last second.

After losing in the last battle, the Warriors have not lost a game and are firmly ranked second in the league.

Two days later, the two teams will face off again at the Staples Center.
