Yang Yijia's article was widely reprinted. The pen "fun" www.biquge.info feelings, this word has been sought after in China since ancient times, especially for fans who like the NBA, everyone can know the stories behind the stars, and these stories have also inspired generations of fans to continue to love basketball and miss basketball.

Li Du was suspended for 8 games, but his popularity did not decline but rose, and he was not idle, using this half month, Li Du in addition to regular practice every day, the rest of the time was put on studying the unicorn step.

After the start of April, Li Du was also unbanned, and at this time, Kobe Bryant told him that there was no need to hide anymore, he could go all out on the court, and the Lakers needed to win more games to ensure a playoff standing.

With Kobe Bryant breaking out and Li Du exerting his all, the Lakers seem to be back to the beginning of the season. The Lakers also did not lose in the regular season in late March and the first half of April, and finally in the regular season finale of the 18RB season on April 18, the Lakers defeated the Kings 117-106 and advanced to the playoffs in fourth place in the West with a 50-32 record.

The Lakers' opponent in the playoffs is their carefully selected Suns! In fact, the Suns have a good record in the middle of the season, and they have always ranked second in the West, second only to the Mavericks. However, in the middle of the season, Nash and Smalls were out of battle, which caused the Suns to lose their strength and drop in the rankings.

Nash has always had problems with his spine and can't stand for long periods of time, so every time he rests, he always lies on the sidelines. This truce was due to the recurrence of an old disease in his spine. Xiao Si accidentally broke his foot in training, and with his height and weight, his broken foot is also a very serious injury and cannot be underestimated, so the Suns team doctor strictly ordered Xiao Si to rest.

This was supposed to keep the Suns' two cores in the playoffs in the best shape, but unfortunately the Suns' record of losing both cores at the same time fell all the way down, and later even fell out of the playoff list. In the final stage, with the return of Nash and Smalls, the Suns stabilized their record and finally advanced to the playoffs as fifth in the West.

With all the games over on April 18, the final regular season standings have been decided, with the Lakers and Suns in fourth and fifth place, respectively, and the rest of the teams are largely expected.

The Mavericks reached the Finals last season, and this season they are even stronger, ranking first in the West with an excellent record of 67 wins and 15 losses, and also the first in the league! The Spurs are second in the West with 61 wins and 21 losses. The Mavericks and Spurs are also the only teams to win more than 60 games this season and are considered the favorites by all.

The Jazz are third, the Rockets are sixth, and the Nuggets and Warriors are seventh and eighth, respectively.

As a result, the first round of the Western Conference playoffs appeared. Mavericks vs. Warriors, this is a tactical battle between Junior General Johnson and his mentor Nelson Sr. Spurs vs. Nuggets, this is a matchup between the tactical system and the talent system. Jazz vs. Rockets, this is the NBA's new rivalry in the past two years. Lakers vs. Suns, this round series is considered Kobe Bryant's revenge battle.

In the Lakers training hall, Li Du looked at the playoff table posted on the wall, turned his head and asked Kobe: "Boss, this time we meet the Suns, do I still block Nash like I did at the beginning of the season?" Or do you need to do something else? ”

"No need!" Kobe Bryant shook his head and said, "Lee, as long as you can continue to block Steve and force Steve to pass the ball to others to attack, instead of him instigating the attack, we will win!" ”

"Boss, the Suns have fought us three times, and each time I sealed Nash, for such a long time, I'm afraid they will think of other ways to deal with us, are they preparing early?" Li Du raised his doubts. The playoff matchups are extremely targeted, not to mention that the Suns lost three games in a row to the Lakers in the regular season, and they should find other ways to deal with the Lakers.

"Don't worry about that." Kobe Bryant said while shooting unconcernedly: "Don't talk about the Suns, in the entire NBA, completely different tactics can be arranged with the change of opponents, and such a team is probably only the Spurs!" And even the Spurs are not free to change tactics. All tactics need to be guaranteed by strong core players! The Suns' core players are only Amare and Steve, and they can't change their tactics! ”

"It's you!" Kobe Bryant pointed at Li Du, "Lee, you seem to have been troubled since I told you to restrain yourself and not play at full strength, and now that it's the playoffs, are you sure to show that desperate defense again?" ”

Li Du smiled: "Don't worry, boss, with more and more games, I now know more about basketball, and my sensitivity has not decreased, of course I know the importance of the playoffs, you see, I put all my strength into defense this time, so that Nash can't get a point!" ”

"Really?" Kobe Bryant smiled and stretched out his hand to Li Duyi: "Come on, let me see how much you have improved." Let's have one-on-one, ten balls, and the loser invites dinner tonight, how about it? ”

"Okay!" Li Du agreed, walked into the three-point line in two steps, and began to defend Kobe.

An hour later, Kobe Bryant sat on the field panting, looking at Li Du, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, meditating and pranayama, recovering his strength, and laughing: "Li, let's count it as a draw this time!" If we continue to fight, we will purely fight for physical strength! ”

Li Du didn't speak, still sitting cross-legged, and nodded slowly.

In an hour, the final score of the two turned out to be 0-0! Kobe Bryant and Li Du can't take anyone. In the face of Li Du, who is defending with all his might, Kobe Bryant can't take advantage of it even with his rich game experience, and Li Du is not skilled enough in offensive skills, and he can't break Kobe's defense.

Looking at Li Du sitting cross-legged on the ground, Kobe Bryant laughed maliciously, he was thinking, in the first game with the Suns on April 22, Li Du really couldn't score a point against Nash, what would it be like? I don't know what Nash will think.

After coming out of the training ground, Li Du said goodbye to Kobe Bryant and went to David Geffen Hospital. Today, Master Shang Yun specially explained, let Li Du go to him after training, Shang Yun wants Li Du to really become a nightmare for all the opposing players in the past few days! Now Li Du is still a little bit behind.

When he came to David Geffen Hospital, after Li Du greeted his senior brother, Shang Yun took Li Du out of the ward and found a quiet park. Then Shang Yun said to Li Du: "Xiao Du, do you know what is the biggest change on the court between you now and you at the beginning of the season?" ”

Li Du originally wanted to say that he was more familiar with basketball, but when he thought that Master basically didn't understand the rules of basketball, and it was definitely not these things to ask, he shook his head and waited for Master to continue.

Shang Yun saw Li Du shaking his head, and he didn't say much, and put on a three-body pose, facing Li Du. The next moment, Li Du only felt a cold wind coming, and the killing intent on the master's body enveloped him, and in an instant, the hairs on Li Du's whole body stood upright, and he instinctively sank his breath, looking at Master Shang Yun nervously!
