NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

At the beginning of the third quarter, when Li Kaiming once again appeared on the court with a high-spirited attitude, not to mention the commentators on the scene, even the many fans who came to the arena to support the American team were shocked beyond measure!

Still on?Is this guy an Iron Man?What is he made of?Doesn't he feel tired?

The first possession of the third quarter belonged to America. Paul dribbled the ball past half-court, and then played a pick-and-roll with Durant. After half a quarter of the game, Durant's desire to attack came up. It was very strong. When Paul passed the ball, Yi Jianlian was already in front of Durant without losing his defensive position at all.

But Durant still caught the ball and pulled it up directly, hitting Yi Jianlian's defense from mid-range.

Maybe Durant was too excited, or maybe he had rested for too long, and his strength had been completely restored. This shot was obviously too big. Li Kaiming defeated Tyson Chandler in the struggle for position. After taking off from the same spot, Picked off the rebound and passed it to Liu Wei.

The Chinese team dribbled to the frontcourt, and Li Kaiming and Yi Jianlian went to help Liu Wei cover. This tactic played a very important role in the last minute of the first half, so America also attached great importance to it.

While Paul was trying to squeeze into the screen, the two men on the inside also came up, seemingly preparing to completely strangle the cooperation of these three people.

But the old coach K still underestimated Liu Wei's passing skills. After all, he is the starting point guard of the Chinese national team who has been unbeatable for many years. Although some domestic fans joked that his main job is to dribble the ball across half court and then pass it to Yao Ming, but he can also It can be seen that even in the eyes of Chinese fans who have very picky tastes, Liu Wei's passing is very stable.

The cooperation between the three of America this time was much better than in the first half, but the attack was too aggressive. Liu Wei used an overhead pass fake to shake the hands of the two insiders, and then hit the ground and passed the ball. Li Kaiming, who was downhill, was picked up through a crack in the crowd.

At this time, Chandler and Durant finally reacted and turned back to look for their own men. However, in this situation, Li Kaiming caught the ball and attacked the basket. He only needed one dribble to dunk in three steps. He couldn't stop him at all!

54 to 50, in the second half, the first goal scored by the Chinese team was actually Li Kaiming who played the entire first half!

Director Zhang Weiping in the broadcast area was about to shout hoarse, "It's Li Kaiming again. He started the second half with a violent dunk, leading the Chinese team to open up the score and maintain the lead!"

America served the ball, came to the frontcourt, and handed the ball to Kobe, who had not played singles for a long time. Facing Sun Yue, the younger brother of the Lakers, Kobe naturally had to teach him a lesson in person, so that the latter could feel what he had learned from his past. Boss intensity.

However, what Kobe didn't expect was that when Sun Yue saw that he was going to take the ball and play singles, not only did he not show any fear, but he looked eager to try.

This made Kobe instantly popular. He was the well-deserved core and soul of the Lakers. No teammate could challenge his status and majesty.

Now a former Laker water cooler dares to challenge himself. If he doesn't teach him a lesson, will he be able to do it again in the future?Where does the Black Mamba’s authority lie?

So after receiving the ball, Kobe changed his face directly from the frame to his back, and began to dribble to hit Sun Yue. Of course, in this process, Malone's elbow strikes were also fully displayed. After dribbling the ball three times, Kobe Gradually approaching the sweet spot of his shot.

At this time, he put the ball together with both hands. First, he made a fake turn and shook his shoulders, so that Sun Yue behind him couldn't tell which way he would turn. Then, taking advantage of Sun Yue's hesitation, he turned towards the baseline and shot forward elegantly. !

Kobe's backward angle is very tricky, and he has specially polished his movements, so it looks picturesque.

However, although Kobe successfully passed Sun Yue, Li Kaiming, who was following Sun Yue, rushed over. He jumped high and blocked Kobe's shot. Kobe had seen this kind of situation before. After a little panic, He increased the arc of his shot and was still preparing to take the shot himself. In fact, Chandler under the basket was already empty at this time.

It's hard not to say that Kobe deliberately wants to challenge Li Kaiming's defense. He is such a person who likes to play one-on-one games with the opposite star, and firmly believes that as long as he can defeat the opposite star beautifully, then his own The team will naturally win.

What's more, Li Kaiming also stole the All-Star MVP from him. Although he said very generously that Li Kaiming's performance was great, he was still very unhappy in his heart.

Therefore, whether it is based on Kobe's playing style or his relationship with Li Kaiming, he has to take the shot himself.

But Kobe obviously underestimated the bounce of the dunk king. After taking off, he increased the arc of the ball. His feet were unable to touch the ground in the air. He could only rely on the strength of his waist, abdomen and arms to shoot according to muscle memory, and in the end he could only hit the front. The angle of the ball hitting the basket was very tricky. Chandler, who had completely occupied the position under the basket, did not get it. Instead, Li Kaiming turned around and caught it after defending.

Seeing a group of stars on his side playing singles and failing to score, Old K on the sidelines sighed with a headache!

Sometimes too many stars is not a good thing, because this kind of improvised team is full of big names, and on the surface it is fun, but it is impossible to build a team or develop tactics around one of the players as the core, even if he is a coach. If you force the next team to be the tactical core, then other big names will definitely not be convinced.

In this case, when you encounter a team that is far inferior to America, you don't even need tactics at all. You can defeat the opponent just by relying on star players in singles. If you relax, you can use the simplest one-on-one defense, or a more advanced zone defense. .

But tonight's opponent, the Huaguo team, is different. Although the overall strength of the Huaguo team's players is far inferior to that of America, in comparison, they are a better integrated team, and they have a very clear goal. At the core of the team, when tactics don't work, everyone knows who to give the ball to.

This damn thing won’t overturn, right? Then my lifelong reputation will be ruined here...

Coach K suddenly thought of a very serious problem. He had finally rescued the American men's basketball team from the shadow of the 2004 Athens Olympics. If it crashed in London today, wouldn't it mean that he, Old K, had the same relationship with the coach? The same as Reblan...

Fortunately, the American team finally scored a goal. After the Chinese team missed a shot, the American team protected the rebound. Paul and James connected. The former passed the ball and the latter made a quick pass. In the end, James attracted the defense of Li Kaiming and Sun Yue and passed it to Durant on the outside, who caught the ball and hit a 3-pointer!

54 to 53!The score difference is back to one point again.

Deng Dehua on the sidelines began to give instructions loudly, "Suppress the rhythm, quickly return to defense, and don't let the opponent play a fast break!"

Of course he knows that a team like America with a lot of superstars is best at fighting and playing fast. Coupled with Li Kaiming's physical problems on the Chinese team, if he follows America and plays at a fast pace, he will definitely win. He will be beaten by the opponent, and Li Kaiming's precious physical strength will be quickly lost!

Never play fast!

The Huaguo team began to control the rhythm and play positional warfare. After serving in the backcourt for half-time, Liu Wei first directed his teammates to move outside. When there were about 12 seconds left in the attack time, he started to attack with the ball. The ball was given to him. Yi Jianlian was temporarily left open in the mid-range. After receiving the ball, the latter missed the shot due to the interference of Durant's long arm. James grabbed the rebound and then started to counterattack with the ball himself!

The players of the Chinese team quickly returned to the backcourt under Li Kaiming's urging. James wanted to use this opportunity to score on a fast break, but halfway through the breakthrough, Li Kaiming rushed up to double-team. James was blocked in the middle and wanted to pass the ball to the outside. Durant.

But this time Li Kaiming reacted more quickly, stretched out his long arm to intercept in the air, directly intercepted the ball passed by James to Durant, and then dribbled the ball towards the frontcourt.

The American team was also shocked. All the players gritted their teeth and headed back to the backcourt to defend, but only James and Durant in the entire team could keep up with Li Kaiming who was dribbling the ball.

In this case, there is no direct foul, so Li Kaiming came to the penalty area unimpeded, then took off with one foot on the ground, glided in the air for a distance, and succeeded with a one-arm dunk!

56 is better than 53!

The arena was once again filled with waves of cheers from Chinese fans!

"Li Kaiming is awesome!"

"MVP!"

Hua Guo's method of suppressing the rhythm and grinding out positional battles, and then defending the zone defense was very effective. America's best defensive counterattack could not be played at all. After entering the positional battle, although Durant could break through Hua at the power forward position, The national team's zone defense tactics, but every time Durant scores a few goals, he can't get the ball.

After all, you, Durant, have just finished your rookie contract. Although you are also starting in the All-Star Game, you are considered the youngest in this lineup. The ball is being thrown to you, so why do the rest of the big brothers stand and watch?

So the American team has become a positional battle. Except for Tyson Chandler, who is the center and is mainly responsible for doing the dirty work, the remaining four people each have to take several shots. The superstar can sometimes ignore the defense and score hard, but the scoring is not continuous at all, and the entire team plays intermittently.

The Huaguo team played very smoothly, with limited tactics. They revolved around Li Kaiming. If it didn't work, they would hand the ball to Li Kaiming. The others would be ready to catch the ball when they were wide open on the outside, and the other members of the Huaguo team would not have any psychological burden. None, because the ball passed by Li Kaiming is basically wide open, and difficult shots are digested by Li Kaiming himself.

The third quarter of the game ended quickly. The collapse of the Chinese team that most people expected in the third quarter did not happen. On the contrary, judging from the scene, the Chinese team looked more like a team that played in an orderly manner. Amery Card is like a headless fly, whoever gets the ball can take two shots.

The two sides fought to 77 to 74, with the Chinese team still leading by 3 points. Li Kaiming still didn't rest for a second.

当然华国队能打到这种地步李凯明自然是居功至伟，打满三节的他已经砍下了31分13篮板7助攻2盖帽2抢断，看样子这场比赛是奔着40+去的。

The Chinese fans watching the game were so excited that they didn’t know what to say. The last time a Chinese team player performed like this was in the 2004 Athens Olympics. Yao Ming led the Chinese team with a double-double of 39 points and 13 rebounds in a single game. The national team defeated New Zealand.

And tonight's Li Kaiming seems to be even more impressive than Yao Ming that time...
