I have a lot of skills in the NBA

Chapter 231 People who humiliate others will always humiliate them! !
On the Clippers side, after Reed advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, he immediately encountered Simmons' impenetrable defense.

Although Simmons is the core of the 76ers' backcourt at this stage, he is such a high-quality point guard, and he does not have the ability to shoot.

But on the defensive end he is definitely a gatekeeper.

Simmons has strong single-defense ability, fast movement speed, large defensive coverage area, and good defensive awareness. In the game, he often defends the opponent's top star and is the strongest defensive player in the team's backcourt.

I saw Simmons spread his hands, expanding the defensive area as much as possible, and did not give Reed any chance to break through.

Lu Wei is very aware of his strength, and he did not force a breakthrough this time, but handed the basketball to Harris on the left side of the three-point line.

Currently Li Yang is not on the court, as the strongest offensive point on the court, the Clippers' first offense is naturally handed over to Harris to complete.

After receiving the ball, Harris took his left foot as the axis, tentatively stepped forward with his right foot, feinted a shot, then retracted his right foot like lightning, and quickly broke through from the other side.

Covington was successfully passed by Harris and completely lost his defensive position.

After Harris successfully broke through Covington's defense, he rushed directly to the basket.

When Harris rushed to the basket and was about to take off for a layup, Embiid stretched out his big hand like a millstone, and slapped the basketball in Harris's hand abruptly! !

This volleyball-style daring fully demonstrated Embiid's ability to protect the frame! !
Covington had quick eyes and quick hands, and immediately grabbed the floor ball with a forward pounce, and then the 76ers launched a quick counterattack.

After Covington took the ball to the frontcourt, he braked in time and made a chasing three-pointer on the three-point line!
Invisible pretense is the deadliest! !

This three-pointer flew straight into the net bag as if it had been accurately positioned.

In the opening stage, the 76ers in the away game played a wave of 5:0 offensive attacks.

The home fans at the Staples Center were instantly sculpted. This script is wrong. The current form is not what they hoped to see when they came to the scene! !

At this time, many radical fans in the stands began to shout for Li Yang to be replaced.

But the Clippers coach Rivers just frowned, still unmoved, had no plans to make substitutions, and continued to trust the five players on the field.

Li Yang continued to rest off the court, but the Clippers' offense seemed to have lost its backbone. Every player hesitated and didn't know how to move.

On the offensive end, Harris once again fell into the dilemma of going it alone.

The defender facing Harris is Covington.

Four years ago, Covington was still an undrafted pick. Three years later, Covington has become the league's top wing defender.

He posted career highs in field goal percentage, [-]-point percentage, offensive and defensive ratings, PER and points per game last season -- and even played fewer minutes than he did last season.

Covington was selected to the best defensive team last season. He can become the main force of the 76ers mainly because Coach Brown values ​​his outside shooting ability and defensive skills.

Using this player to defend against Harris is simply to lock Harris completely. Sure enough, this arrangement is extremely effective in restricting Harris.

Although Harris can still break through Covington's perimeter defense, when Harris struggles to get rid of the opponent and continue to layup with the ball, Embiid always has a way to intercept Harris at the basket.

In addition, the 76ers have a Simmons who can defend at any time inside and also has a strong defensive ability. As long as Harris breaks through the three-point line, it is still difficult for him to score.

In addition, Harris' shooting touch tonight also plummeted compared to the previous game! !
Whether it's a dry pull, a post-up single, or even a three-point catch and shoot, Harris, who is all-around offensive, can't score for a while! ! !
Harris encountered a serious scoring shortage, and at the same time, the other main players of the Clippers did not stand up and take the initiative to take on the offensive task.

Players such as Beverly and Gortat do not have a strong ability to attack independently. During this period of time, the Clippers can only score through continuous passing to find gaps! !
But the 76ers players are quite focused, and it is even harder for the Clippers to find opportunities to score!
Finally, Rivers couldn't hold his breath anymore.

He walked up to Li Yang, and said helplessly to Li Yang, "Yang, the military training is over ahead of schedule, it's time for you to play."

"Remember, connect the team's offense after playing!" Rivers patted Li Yang on the shoulder and said.

"Don't worry, coach, don't worry about my work." After showing a confident expression, Li Yang went straight to the field to replace Lu Wei.

The moment Li Yang entered the court, the entire Staples Center Arena erupted into cheers like a tsunami!

"Wow! Yang is finally playing! It's just amazing!"

"The Clippers' counterattack starts now!!"

"Li Yang will definitely make the Clippers' offense look brand new!"

"Rivers is simply too stubborn, what kind of tactics are you playing, is this digging a hole for Yang?!"

"Finally playing, I came to the scene to witness Yang's supreme demeanor!"

In addition to exciting the Clippers fans on the field, his appearance also gave the Clippers players a reassurance.

Li Yang walked straight up to Harris and said, "Tobias, I'll help you attract Joel's defensive attention later, and then you take advantage of the opportunity to find a layup."

Harris nodded slightly at Li Yang.

In fact, on the bench, Li Yang didn't wander off. He was always observing the game situation and seriously thinking about how to tear apart the opponent's defense.

After the game started, Li Yang came to the frontcourt with the ball.

The defensive player in front of him is Sidi Simmons.

There is still a big difference between Li Yang and Lu Wei's playing style. Although Lu Wei is also very sharp in breakthrough, his efficiency can only be said to be above average. What's more, Simmons has excellent talent and good defensive instincts, and his defensive skills are very good.

But Li Yang is different, he lacks both explosive power and speed.

After Li Yang took the ball, he stepped a little, feinted a shot, and immediately overtook Simmons from the left.

In an instant, Li Yang used his super explosive power to successfully throw away Simmons by a body distance.

After Li Yang got to the inside, evaded Simmons' defense, rushed to the basket without hesitation, and made a gesture of preparing to dunk!

After seeing Li Yang's movements, Embiid's expression instantly became tense.

Before the start of the game, 76ers coach Brown had already emphasized to the players how terrible Li Yang was.

So when Embiid saw that Li Yang was about to dunk, he also hurriedly made defensive moves to intercept.

At the moment Li Yang took off, Embiid and Simmons also jumped up immediately, one in front of the other, reaching out to block Li Yang's dunk.

But the moment they jumped up, they realized that they had been fooled.

Li Yang's goal is not to shoot, but to pass! !
After Li Yang took off, his eyes aimed at the basket just to confuse his opponent. In fact, he already knew Harris' position.

The basketball finally came to Harris's hands smoothly.

After Harris got the ball from the left baseline, he hit the basket directly.

At this time, Embiid and Covington had just landed, and there was no time to make a second interception.

Harris made an easy layup! !

The Clippers finally broke the scoring shortage by relying on their beautiful pass and cut cooperation. As soon as Li Yang played, the team had an immediate change.

In addition to helping the team on the offensive end, Li Yang is also very active on the defensive end.

After all, the mission goal of this game is to defeat the combination of two emperors, and the difficulty is not so great! !
So on the defensive end, Li Yang is also a strong output, showing a very positive attitude.

This time Li Yang defended the veteran Covington.

He was completely irritated by Li Yang's close-pressing defense.

at this time.

A harsh provocative voice came.

Black people love performance, and black athletes are no exception.

Covington scolded Li Yang angrily: "You skinny yellow-skinned monkey, you'd better go back to Huaxia, you can't play around here!!"

"Sooner or later, you will pay the price for your cheap mouth, that's what I said!" Li Yang stared at him coldly, like a ferocious beast.

"Going forward, you won't score a point tonight.

The two people's emotions reached their peak in an instant!The smell of gunpowder in the game was instantly dignified.

After Covington was insulted by the young man, he naturally became angry from embarrassment.

At this moment, he had to teach this crazy rookie a good lesson.

Covington kicked his feet, and his body started at high speed, trying to pass Li Yang through changes in rhythm and speed.

But Li Yang was unmoved, he kept leaning against Covington with his body, and did not lose his defensive position.

Covington could only bite the bullet and score a layup, but Li Yang didn't give him a chance at all.

At the moment he made the shot, Li Yang hit him head-on with a hot pot!
"boom!!"

The basketball was slapped out of the baseline by Li Yang!

"I just said, you're not going to score a point tonight."

"Try again if you have the ability? Try and die, you can't afford this price!!"

Li Yang's words were like a sharp dagger, piercing directly into the center of Covington's heart.

"Don't dare to babble, believe it or not, I will give you a mouthful of pure natural, green and pollution-free millennium-old phlegm!!"

"Damn!! Touched? Don't dare to move, dare not move!!"

Although Covington was quite angry, but looking at Li Yang's unfaltering cold eyes, ready to spit his face at any time, he suddenly felt a little bit better! !
