Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 454 White Lightning
Three do not stick!
Facing Yuan Qingshan's defense, Schroeder made a three-point shot two meters from the three-point line!
"Schroeder's extremely confident ultra-long-range three-pointer is actually three-pointers!" Mark Jackson exclaimed in the commentary.

At this moment, Schroeder happened to pass by his side and gave him a hard look.

Mark Jackson was confused by his eyes, you weren't born when I played, and you weren't in the league when I retired.

Van Gundy saw Schroder's gloomy expression and said to Mark Jackson: "This kid is too conceited."

Mark Jackson shook his head: "I bet, if he doesn't change his character, he won't be able to become a man!"

Schroeder's face was cold, Bazemore and Ilyasova stayed away from him, and although Paul Millsap usually didn't agree with him, he didn't bother to provoke him.

For the ball just now, Whiteside and Millsap hit the bottom line between the scrambles, and the Lakers had the ball.

Downs served the ball, he glanced at it, and threw it to Yuan Qingshan vigorously.

Yuan Qingshan really went for Schroeder this time.

"Huh?" Schroeder let out a sigh and put on a posture.

It's a pity that it was a useless posture. Yuan Qingshan didn't even use his skills. He switched hands and dribbled the ball, tapped left and right, and then swiped his body before sprinting past Schroeder.

"Well, you had a good time!" Mark Jackson applauded loudly on purpose. If Schroeder dared to disrespect himself again, he might educate him as an elder after the game.

Schroeder didn't hear Mark Jackson's shouts, the fans on the sidelines were too loud.

"Defend, defend, defend!"

"Defend, defend, defend!"

Schroeder said in his heart, I have already been passed by others, so why should I guard against it?

Sefolosha couldn't bear it any longer, and explained to his teammates that the Eagles' defensive lineup was rotating, and he came straight to Yuan Qingshan.

He is indeed much stronger than Schroeder. Yuan Qingshan didn't dare to push too much. He tried to make a breakthrough, but failed to get in, so he passed the ball to Korver.

Korver faced his old teammate Schroeder.

Yes, it's still Schroeder. Somehow, the protagonist tonight seems to be Schroeder.

Facing Schroeder, Korver took a big step horizontally and shot quickly.

A three-pointer was scored.

"Wow!"

"Kyle, Kyle!"

"White lightning, white lightning!"

Atlanta fans seem to have not yet adapted to Korver's new identity. Seeing him make a beautiful goal, they couldn't help cheering collectively.

"White Lightning, White Lightning!" Towns followed suit and cheered like the fans. Korver touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment and smiled.

"Your nickname is very touching." Yuan Qingshan and Korver clashed fists.

The shy Korver was embarrassed again: "My speed is so slow that it's like lightning."

This is easy to explain. Yuan Qingshan said: "Your off-ball running position is absolutely top-notch. Few people can keep up with you, right?"

Korver shook his head: "It was OK ten years ago, but not now."

Yuan Qingshan patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, and the two fell back to defense together.

The Eagles fell into the big trouble of "Schroder singles". In the first half, Schroder took 21 shots and only scored 13 points.

The fans had had enough. Many people picked up their cars and left during the intermission. They didn't need to watch the second half. They must have been tortured by the Lakers.

Faced with this situation, the Eagles coaching staff couldn't come up with any effective solutions.

Besides, don't forget that their task this year is the lottery, so they obediently surrendered their guns in the third quarter.

The Lakers then replaced the main lineup, and there were three consecutive away games, one of which was back to back. The main players were very tired.

In the commentary booth, Mark Jackson and Van Gundy chatted boredly.

Van Gundy: "Why don't the Eagles let Schroeder continue to show off on the court? Isn't he very good, let's see if he can come back on his own."

Mark Jackson complained: "Why do you still mention the name Schroeder? My mind is full of these words now. If we continue like this endlessly, the fans in front of the TV will say that we are pouring water."

Van Gundy: "Okay, shut up, shut up, none of us are allowed to mention Schroeder again."

Mark Jackson: "You!"

"Hahaha." Van Gundy laughed.

The rest of the game was really lackluster, and the Lakers took out their three teams for a wave of experience, and then flew away from Atlanta in style.

On the second day, the media, large and small, reported on the Lakers' three-game winning streak. They temporarily secured the second place in the Western Conference, and are currently three games away from the Warriors.

After the three-way trip, the Lakers had a short vacation, and then entered March, without back-to-back for a whole month.

This kind of schedule is more comfortable. Players don't need long-distance bumps, and they can recuperate and prepare for the playoffs.

Walton and the coaching staff studied it and decided to give the players another day off.

He went to Magic Johnson himself to discuss how to play in the next regular season.

The magician dug out the schedule and score sheet, studied it with Wharton all morning, and came to the conclusion: let's play normally.

Once the trade deadline passed, the team's lineup was finalized, there were no trades, and other aspects of operations were relatively stable before the start of the playoffs, so the team management had nothing to do.

So Jenny Buss flew all over the United States with scout Laughlin to watch NCAA March Madness games.

Laughlin is the duty, and Jenny Buss is pure distraction.

Experts and the media all predict that 2017 will be the year of the draft. Currently, the emerging rookies include Markelle Fultz, Lonzo Ball, Jayson Tatum, Daron Fox and so on.

It's a pity that the Lakers don't have a first-round pick this year. Although it's a big year, they don't hold out hope.

It is not lonely for Laughlin to be accompanied by Jenny Buss, but there is not enough time to communicate with other colleagues, and there is no first-round pick, and it is really uninteresting to only look at the second-round players.

Jenny Buss really moved her mind about the draft, and discussed with Laughlin whether she could trade for a first-rounder, preferably a lottery.

Laughlin raised her palm high: "Lotto? Stop, it's impossible!"

Jenny Buss conceded, and the first-round pick will do.

Laughlin continued to shake her head. Frye, Green and Korver might have to be traded for the first-round pick, and at the same time, they would have to eat the other party's garbage contract.

Jenny Buss was silent. These few veterans were carefully selected, and it would be a pity to let them go.

"How about the second round, can we draft someone like Brogdon?" Jenny Buss asked.

Laughlin rolled her eyes: "Well, you have to ask Yuan Qingshan, last year's Brogdon was chosen for you, and then you traded it away."

Jenny Buss again has nothing to say.
