I just play ball

Chapter 472

It is rare for Kobe to help in a verbal battle, after all, he has always been the kind of person who doesn't talk too much.

Li Yue nodded in response, turned his head to look at the direction of the basketball, and found that Paul had reached the right wing.

Griffin went up to the wall to set a screen, and Paul drove along the sideline, suddenly raised his right hand and passed the ball behind.

This action came very suddenly. Griffin failed to react in time. Seeing the ball rolling, he bent down to pick it up, but failed. Fortunately, the ball rolled to the top of the arc, and Jordan grabbed it and handed it to Griffin. .

Landry took the initiative to retreat to make room for the shot, but Griffin slowly dribbled the ball to the left waist, changed hands with one crotch, then changed hands behind the back, and suddenly turned around and threw the ball towards the free throw line, then run up to set up a wall for cover.

Paul just circled back to the free throw line from the paint, received the ball and took advantage of the screen to break through. Just when Griffin opened the inside cut, he slammed the ball hard, and Griffin caught the ball and rushed to the basket The basket was intercepted by Davis' supplementary defense.

Griffin made an emergency stop and hit the ball towards the basket, realizing that it was a pity that his handwork was a bit poor, and the rebound height of the basketball was relatively low. Jordan, who was more than [-] meters tall, bent over a lot to pick up the ball , As soon as he stood up straight, he was defended close to the body.

With little time left in the shot, Jordan calmly dribbled the ball out of the paint and punched Landry with his back.

At the same time, Barnes started from the left corner, with the help of Redick's down screen, went straight to the basket.

Li Yue chased after him. Seeing that Jordan hit the ground ball, he held his breath and jumped up ahead of time.

boom!Pinning the big cap, Li Yue just caught the basketball that Barnes shot, half a second was not too early, not half a second was not too late.

The basketball rebounded and flew upside down. Davis and Griffin jumped up and scrambled for the ball, hitting the ball directly out of the baseline.

The referee blew his whistle and gave the Clippers the right to the bottom line and frontcourt. The audience subconsciously booed to express their dissatisfaction

Li Yue looked up at the large central screen, and the video showed that it was indeed Davis who sent the racket flying in the end.

"Very good, very good, it looks a bit fierce." Barnes smiled, "Next time I will be so defensive, and more fierce than you, you better not pee your pants, the temperature is too high now, the smell will be very bad Big, we can find out in an instant.”

Li Yue was stunned for a moment, wondering if it was because Barnes had been a father and had too much experience in changing diapers?

Responding to trash talk is no fun, so let Barnes entertain himself, winning is the key.

The Clippers were set up in a blink of an eye, the referee blew the whistle and Barnes used Griffin to cover and rushed from the free throw line to the baseline. Just as the Lakers were preparing to switch defenses, Griffin disassembled the outer bullet and left elbow. Catch the ball in the area and make a mid-range shot.

bass!Hollow into the net, the Clippers lead 49 to 47.

The Lakers' long-term lead was lost. Perhaps because they felt the need to adjust the atmosphere, the announcer shouted for guidance, and many audience members shouted LETSGOLA.

Price dribbled the ball to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, and with the help of Davis' screen, he twisted his hips and entered the paint.

Paul squeezed through the wall to catch up, Jordan Jr. intercepted in front, and Davis turned from the opportunity to cut in.Seeing that Price was about to pass the ball for an assist, Barnes rushed from the right corner to the basket to intercept.

Li Yue got a super wide open, started decisively and rushed behind Davis, and Price sent a pass over his head spiritually.

Little Jordan hurriedly moved sideways to make up for the defense, but Li Yue immediately took off on one foot after receiving the ball, and raised his right hand high to throw the shot at an extremely fast speed.

Boom!The basketball crashed into the net and the Lakers tied.

"The Clippers have no problem defending this time, it's a bet that Price can't pass the ball out first, so that everyone has time to complete the defense," Van Gundy said, "But Li Yue is too smart, he cuts directly inside and helps Price. saves many steps.”

Jackson nodded: "The Lakers advanced much earlier than the Clippers, so they must have had special training."

The Clippers attacked, Paul dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, and was originally scheduled to pat and wait for his teammates to move.

Redick started from the left wing, rushed to the bottom line with the cover of Jordan, passed through the paint area to the right waist, and then went around with Griffin's cover, received a pass from Paul on the right wing, and rushed to the basket next to Iguodala , all routines remain unchanged.

Iguodala raised his right hand to catch up, followed to the basket unhurriedly, and took off almost at the same time to block the shot.

Redick dodged with the lever in the air, which made the shot more difficult for no reason, and the basketball bounced back with a bang.

Davis stepped forward and threw the defensive rebound to Price, and the Lakers counterattacked.

Li Yue rushed to the left sideline first, turned his head to look at the team's position, and immediately ran to the left half. When Davis got the ball at the top of the arc, he immediately circled out with Landry's cover and ran to the left half. Davis side receivers pass the ball.

It was difficult for Barnes to catch up for a while, Li Yue twisted his hips and scored the ball, defended against Jordan, and forced a three-step layup.

boom!Air collision.

Li Yue lay back, but shot ahead of time, the basketball rebounded into the net, and the referee whistle followed.

scored!There will be an additional penalty!
Cheers resounded in the arena, Li Yue pulled Landry to stand up with both hands, and celebrated with high-fives with Davis and others.

D'Antoni waved, Kobe got up and walked onto the court, and Price went off to rest.

Amidst the shouts of MVP, Li Yue made a free throw and the Lakers led 52 to 49.

The Clippers attacked, Paul did not pick up the basketball immediately, but walked forward with the rolling basketball, and at the same time gestured tactical moves with both hands. Wandering and waiting.

The Clippers' positional tactics are really pitiful, and Redick used the cover to get around from the bottom line.It is true that Iguodala failed to catch up closely, but Landry switched defenses in advance and delayed, abruptly destroying the chance to pass and receive the ball.

Griffin took the opportunity to bounce from outside the elbow area and received the ball at the 45° three-point line. After Paul passed the ball, he inserted into the elbow area and set up a wall to block Landry. Interfere with Griffin.

The dislocation situation was thus formed. Paul disassembled the outer bullet, ran to the left sideline, bent over and stretched out his hand.

Griffin passed the ball knowingly, Paul caught the ball and moved laterally, facing Landry and making a three-pointer.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Li Yue rushed to get the rebound, turned around and pushed forward, rushed all the way to the left side of the frontcourt at 45°, carefully observed the position, pulled the ball and retreated to the LOGO position, patted on the spot and waited for his teammates to move, with only eye hints.

Davis understood, and lifted the wall to block Barnes, Li Yue lowered his shoulders and accelerated his dash.

Little Jordan managed to catch up to the elbow area. Li Yue hurriedly stopped under his crotch and changed hands, pretending to change course and go to the right, but in fact he immediately pulled the ball in front of him and changed direction, and continued to break through to the left. Unbalanced, sitting on the ground with a crash.

Laughter broke out in the arena, and Li Yue rushed to the basket, ignoring the threat of Griffin's supplementary defense, and scored with a one-handed dunk.

The Clippers attacked, Paul took the ball to the right wing, raised his hand and passed it to Griffin at the top of the arc, and he strode in.

Jordan and Barnes set up screens continuously. Paul circled from the bottom line to the left half, then used Redick to cover and ran to the top of the return arc, raised his hand to receive the pass, and cut in from the right elbow again. Perfect to form a cycle.

The Lakers continued to adopt a partial three-defense and two-two strategy, but this time Griffin did not cut inside, but played outside.

No inside, no touch, Landry is double-teaming and has no time to get back.

Paul made an emergency stop and turned around to pass the ball. Griffin received the ball in a super wide open space, took off steadily and made a two-pointer.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Kobe picked up the rebound and took it to the top of the arc, patted it on the spot and waited. At the same time, Landry slid down from the left 45 degrees and set up a wall to block Barnes.Li Yue took the opportunity to rush to the right wing, received a pass from Kobe, and watched with his back.

After Kobe passed the ball, he twisted his hips and ran, using Landry's cover to enter the inside line, but Paul did not immediately bypass the screen to catch up. Maybe he thought it was just helping to open up space. Griffin did not change defense in time, but stared at the right wing.

Coincidentally, Kobe Bryant is also paying attention to the dynamics of the right wing.

When such an opportunity presented itself, Li Yue decisively threw the ball for an assist.

Paul reacted and shouted loudly to remind that the Clippers had participated in double-teaming one after another, including Barnes.

Li Yue took the opportunity to move to the left corner, and Kobe passed the ball back tacitly, and no one in the Clippers had time to defend.

bass!A three-pointer went into the net, 55 to 49.

Rivers shook his head slightly, and wanted to say something a few times, but he forcibly held back the words and clapped his hands instead.

The Clippers attacked and Paul took the ball to the left wing.

Griffin held Landry with his back at 45°, raised his hand to receive the pass, and immediately passed it back.

Paul caught the ball and shifted to the right, failed to get rid of Kobe, and then changed course to the left.

Griffin cuts inside, bends over to catch a pass from Paul, and puts his back against Landry.

But still didn't play, continue to pass the ball back to the LOGO position, and then go up the rack wall to cover.

Paul accelerated to the left wing, and finally got a small chance to hit a big one, changing hands and shaking continuously.

Landry took the initiative to retreat, put in a shot, and then followed Paul to take off, raising his left hand to interfere with the line of sight.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Kobe raised his hand to catch it and strode forward.

Li Yue settled on the left elbow, stuck Barnes with his back, raised his hands to watch and wait for the ball, and Barnes lowered his center of gravity to try to increase the difficulty of exerting force, and he was still muttering, "You dare not shoot a three-pointer." 'Such radical method.

Li Yue completely ignored him, took a step forward to find an opportunity, then turned around suddenly, and leaned back.

Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 57 to 49.

The cheers in the arena exploded, and Rivers walked to the technical table with an irritated face, seemingly ready to request a timeout at any time.

The Clippers attacked, Paul took the ball to the left wing, did not want to cover, and slowly moved to the bottom corner.

Kobe's defense is like an iron wall, blocking the people who are trying to pass. Paul tries for five seconds, and reluctantly drives the ball back to the right wing. With the help of Griffin's cover, he twists his hips and enters the paint. .

The two collided in the air, the basketball hit the basket and rebounded, Landry and Paul fell to the ground one after another, but the referee did not cry.

Griffin and Kobe took off and competed for the ball. The basketball fell to the bottom line under force. Paul, who was lying on the ground, raised his hand to catch it, and smashed it to Landry who was lying out of bounds. The Clippers have possession of the ball in the frontcourt.

There was a lot of surprise in the arena. Li Yue stood on the right side of the waist and witnessed the whole process clearly. He sighed in his heart that Paul was really awesome. He could think of such a perfect solution in such a short time. Go down and attack.

In a blink of an eye, the Clippers were set up.

The referee blew the whistle and Paul caught the ball, circled from the bottom line to the top of the arc, raised his hand and threw it to the left wing.

Barnes received the ball and passed back, Paul waited for the top pass, and suddenly threw it to the left wing again, while Li Yue was standing in the elbow zone, originally trying to block Paul, because Griffin had already stepped up to cover, and had to Implement local three defenses and two defenses.

Barnes received the ball wide open, Li Yue hurried back to the defense, but Barnes' shoulders were heavy, Li Yue quickly twisted his hips to catch up, and chased to the basket in the blink of an eye, followed by Barnes kicking off the ground, gliding in the air, and raising his hands Cover.

Snapped!The basketball flew upside down.

Jordan bent down to pick it up, stood up and jumped up on the spot, trying to dunk vigorously, but was slapped away by Davis' big hat.With two consecutive big caps, the audience cheered to reach the fixed point, and the basketball flew to the free throw line. Griffin picked it up and shot it dry.

Boom!Hitting the circle and hitting the net, the Clippers finally broke the scoring shortage and caught up to 51 to 57.

Rivers took a long breath, turned and walked back to the bench to sit down and communicate with the assistant team.

The Lakers attack and Kobe takes the ball to the right wing.

Li Yue lifted it from the left elbow, set up a wall to block Paul, and then disassembled and ran to the top of the arc.

Paul and Barnes teamed up to attack, Kobe stopped suddenly and turned to pass the ball, Li Yue received the ball and waited.

Barnes rushed back to the defense, Landry ran up from the right wing and tried to cover, but Li Yue made a three-pointer.

Without warning, the basketball went into the net hollow, 60 to 51.

Rivers, who was chatting, looked surprised and briefly forgot that he was communicating with the teaching assistant.

The Clippers attacked, Paul dribbled forward with his left hand, and raised his right hand to make tactical instructions.

In a blink of an eye, the Clippers put up a 1-high and 4-low formation, and Redick used the cover to move from the left bottom corner to the right short corner.

I thought it was still going around the elbow to hit the inside line, but this time Redick was just a cover. After he arrived, he slowed down and braked, and instead set up a wall to block Li Yue, while Barnes took the opportunity to bounce out and catch the ball on the right sideline.

Li Yue went around the wall and returned to defense, Barnes rushed to the short corner with the help of Griffin's cover, and Landry switched to intercept.

Barnes was blocked, and his ball-holding skills supported him to break through the double-team layup, and quickly threw the ball to the top of the arc.

Paul caught the ball and broke to the left, using Jordan's cover to get rid of Kobe, but was delayed by Davis.

Paul continued to break along the sideline, using his speed advantage to get rid of Davis, and Iguodala moved laterally to intercept.There was a big gap in the left corner. Paul ran and hit the ground to pass the ball. The basketball went around and fell into Redick's hands.

The Lakers were unable to defend, and the audience booed and interfered, and Redick took a moment to take off and make a shot.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Kobe grabbed the rebound, quickly brought it to the right wing of the frontcourt, and cooperated with Li Yue in a pick-and-roll.The Clippers still chose to attack, and Li Yue took the opportunity to move to the top of the arc, but as soon as he received a pass from Kobe, Griffin was already in place.

Li Yue raised his hands high and waited, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Iguodala cutting into the basket quietly and making a decisive pass.

Redick reacted and took a big step to catch up, but it was too late, and Iguodala scored an easy layup.

With the Lakers leading 62 to 51, Rivers stopped talking, got up and asked for a timeout, and booing broke out in the arena.

In the ESPN commentary seat, Van Gundy said: "Redick is not in good form tonight. The Clippers have launched offenses around him many times. As a result, he didn't score a goal in a sports game. Instead, he sent a foul, and there was a huge loophole on the defensive end."

"I think the key is not that Redick is out of order," Breen said, "but that Li Yue's scoring momentum is too strong."

"Agreed, Crawford should play as soon as possible," Jackson said, "If the Clippers want to play normally with the Lakers, they have no chance of winning."
