I'm king in the basket

Chapter 628 Humanoid Behemoth
The duel between Li Xing and Embiid lasted only 2 minutes. It can be said that there was a back and forth, and there was only one reason why it didn't last-the rotation time was up.

Although the team has not established a lead and is still in a stalemate, Snyder still replaced Li Xing.

Li Xing's replacement was Kyle O'Quinn, who partnered with Bargnani.

At this time, the Cavaliers' Director Lu is also facing a problem: Should Embiid stay on the court to blow up the Raptors' bench, or should he come down to rest?
"Joel, are you okay?"

Director Lu asked Embiid loudly on the sidelines.

Some fans at the scene heard him say this, and responded in Embiid's tone: "Coach, I can't do it anymore, Lakey is about to blow me up, you can replace me!"

It's not that Director Lu hasn't been teased for so many years, and he won't change his mind because of this kind of thing at this time.

Embiid is very tired, but just like a leader asking if you are hungry, in order to show that you are hardworking, you must say loudly: "I am fine!"

In this way, you will leave a good impression in front of the leader. Of course, there is a certain probability that you will hear such a sentence: "Is this so? What a pity, we are going out to have a dinner together, so please stay here Get on with your work."

When Director Lu heard that Embiid was not tired, he felt quite emotional.

What a child can teach!
Didn't he get tired after so long with Rachel Lee?It's awesome!

"Okay, then call them, blow up their insiders, and force Lucky Lee up!"

Director Lu yelled.

Embiid's breath was not stable, and the 7 minutes of confrontation with Li Xing made him extremely tired.

To be honest, he now needs to sit off the court and drink a few sips of Gatorade to adjust his breathing rate, but Director Lu seems to regard him as James who can't be used in any way.

"They still haven't replaced Joel Embiid?"

Snyder was a little taken aback.

Li Xing took the towel and wiped his cheeks, but he didn't expect the other party to do it.

While he is off the court, there is nothing wrong with using the strong point to beat the weak point, but that must be based on Embiid's physical fitness. Now that he has just finished fighting against Li Xing, his breathing rate has been disrupted. If he continues to fight like this, he will be late will be exhausted.

It was Li Xing's plan to drag Embiid down.

Because Embiid's physical fitness is not good, if he wants to go all out, he can only last for 25 minutes. If he does not rest for 1 minute with proper water release, he is estimated to be able to play for 30 minutes.

Physical fitness was his problem, and it was also Li Xing's problem in the early days.

Now even if Li Xing plays the whole game, he will only feel tired, and this kind of fatigue can make people persevere.

"Coach, congratulations on winning this game."

Li Xing congratulated Snyder.

Snyder looked back at him: "Larch, the first quarter is not over yet."

"No, the subsequent situation is foreseeable."

Snyder also thought it was very funny, but he was not as optimistic as Li Xing.

Even if Embiid is exhausted in the end, they still have James.

Now James no longer has a peak score of 103. In the past few years after returning to the Cavaliers, he has reached the age of 30. He was ridiculed by his fans as a thirty-year-old man, and his score dropped from 103 to 98.

Excluding Li Xing, who recovered to 95 after injury, and Durant, who scored 97, he is the player with the highest rating in the league.

Embiid did what Lu directed.

Although O'Quinn is a power forward, he is good defensively, and if Snyder had a choice: choose between O'Quinn and Bargnani to guard Embiid, he would not hesitate for a second. , the answer must be O'Quinn, no matter how many times he is chosen.

Putting Bargnani on defense is a dead end, and he won't do it.

O'Quinn can't guard Embiid, but now the opponent's physical fitness has declined, and his role is to consume the opponent.

To achieve the purpose of consuming the opponent, the easiest way is to fight vigorously off the ball, which directly leads to further consumption of Embiid's physical strength.

But the lean camel was bigger than the horse, and Embiid still beat O'Quinn.

As long as Embiid gets the ball, it's a disaster.

Before Li Xing left the field, the Raptors led by 3 points; after Li Xing left the field, Embiid singled out and James made a breakthrough to overtake.

Dragic saw that there was a problem with Embiid's physical strength, opened up the space, switched defenses, let Embiid come in front of him, and directly forced a layup to cause 2+1.

If this ball is replaced by the energetic Embiid to defend, most of the Slovenians will have a Cameroonian hot pot.

Finally, Embiid survived until the end of the first quarter, and he got a 2-minute break.

No matter how beastly Director Lu is, he can see that Embiid is holding on. It is impossible for him to use this young man to death like James.

"Joel, come down and rest for a while."

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers temporarily replaced James and Embiid, let Irving lead, and Thompson and Wolf Tavares were partnered inside.

Tavares is 221 cm tall and has a wingspan of 239 cm.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is one of the players in the league whose physical condition is closest to Li Xing.

He is 1 centimeter taller than Li Xing, but his wingspan is 10+ short. Moreover, his agility, athletic ability, and skills cannot be compared with the former.

Only by looking at Tavares and these elders with explosive static talents, it is difficult to gain a foothold in the NBA due to many flaws, can we know how terrifying Li Xing's talent is.

Director Lu replaced Embiid and James and wanted them to rest, but Snyder broke the routine rotation and directly replaced Li Xing back on the court.

The one who returned to the arena with Li Xing was Zou Qi.

After resting for most of the quarter, Zou Qi's mentality has also adjusted well, and he no longer sets those seemingly difficult goals for himself.

He decided to take it step by step.

"Tristan's rebounding is very strong, you have to be careful, I don't expect you to overwhelm him on the board, but I hope you can make those opportunities."

Li Xing said to Zou Qi.

Zou Qi nodded and said, "When the opportunity arises, I will be ready."

"Okay, I believe you."

Then, the Cavaliers' first attack was actually arranged on Tavares.

From this round, Li Xing saw what it means to target, what it means to retaliate with an eye, and what it means to retaliate in the same way.

The Raptors can consume Embiid, and the Cavaliers can also consume Li Xing.

The size of Tavares is indeed tailor-made cannon fodder for Li Xing. They want to use Tavares to consume Li Xing ruthlessly, just like they consumed Embiid.

Li Xing has only one question.

Do you really think this man can consume me to death?

Tavares' offense is extremely frowned, he can't tell that he is an insider, he just knows that he is arch, arch, do you think I am a sow?

Suddenly, Tavares dropped the ball.

It was not his fault, in fact, he had firmly controlled the ball, but Li Xing's long arm missed the ball from behind him.

Then came the Raptors' counterattack.

This is the malady brought by Tavares, he will slow down the team's rhythm, whether it is offensive or defensive.

His advantage is that he is tall, has a strong ability to protect the basket, and is very good at protecting defensive rebounds.

And what about the disadvantages?Because he has no shots, he can’t open the space; because his post-up skills are not strong, and once he is double-teamed, he will either make a mistake or rush to hit the iron; because of his slow speed, it is impossible for him to participate in fast breaks or opponents who counterattack at the basket. ;Because of the slow speed, once Li Xing and others pulled the outside line to shoot, he could only put his hands together and pray to God, "Hallelujah, he must not enter."

Brogdon made this counterattack, and his offense gave the Cavaliers a strong impact. This is a player who is particularly good at stealing chickens in chaotic battles.

"It's okay, calm down!"

It's just one round.

That's how Director Lu comforted himself.

The Raptors still don't double-team. Although they all know that once Tavares is double-teamed, he will directly prevent the opponent to death, but they did not do so.

They believed in Li Xing's defense.

This time, Li Xing didn't try to destroy Tavares' ball. He deliberately showed weakness to others, making Tavares think that he had become a superman, and he could push Li Xing back steadily.

Everyone was amazed by what he did, and everyone wanted to know what he had done.

Why did Li Xing suddenly couldn't stand it anymore?

"What's the magic of Tavares?" Barkley exclaimed.

Everyone in the audience thought that Tavares would score this goal on Li Xing's head, and he himself believed it. When he turned around, he was about to end the attack with a dunk on the head of the strongest inside line in history. At that moment, the person in front of him, whom he pushed so hard to escape, suddenly changed color.

The crisis enveloped Tavares, and he could no longer hide.

When he jumped into the air, when he saw that Li Xing was pushed away by him, but recovered in an instant, and jumped to the highest point with an even more terrifying explosive force, he knew—my life is over!
"BOOM!"

"La~~~~~~Kiki Chichi~~~~!!!"

The DJ at the scene shouted Li Xing's name in the most passionate way, and the Raptors started to fight back again.

This time, Li Xing ran at full speed, completely devoting himself to the counterattack.

The audience cheered, and Calderon waited for Li Xing to catch up.

Li Xing ran on the middle line, which has another name called the finish line.

60% of the counterattacks are done by the players running in the middle, because this position is the best position to pass the ball. Even if the ball is not blocked by others, you can choose teammates to pass the ball from the left and right sides, which is the best position.

Can Li Xing pass the ball?

Why pass it on?
The only player in the audience who can compete with him in height has not yet crossed the half-court, and the person blocking him in front is Irving.

Pass the ball to Irving?

Are you kidding me?
Li Xing grabbed the ball with one hand, took the biggest step, jumped up, and immediately turned into a flying humanoid monster. Owen stood in the penalty area, daring not to move.

Li Xing leaped over him.

At that moment, you could hear the exclamation of the audience, even though they were used to Li Xing doing this kind of thing to stimulate them.

He leapt over Irving, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and dunked it ferociously into the rim.

"OH~~~!!!"

"MY~~"

"GOD!!!"
