Chapter 30: Paralyzing Lewis
Supersonic offensive, this time Thunder? Aaron didn't run, but dribbled his teammates. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Then he asked Lewis to come over and block with himself, and after the block, Kobe and Li Du switched defenses, and it became Kobe Bryant's defensive thunder? Allen, Lidu defends Lewis.
Kobe Bryant sees Ray? Aaron said with a smile: "It's rare to see that you have a temper, come on, give me a try!" ”
Thunder? Allen laughed and passed the ball to Lewis, "Kobe, I didn't lose my temper, I just want to know, a big man with flexible feet and can shoot three-pointers, how should a small man defend himself?" Do you need to wrap up Lewis? ”
Thunder? Allen's idea is very good, big and small, especially on the inside, they all have an absolute advantage, not to mention that Lewis is still an interior who can shoot three-pointers and has flexible steps, under normal circumstances, even if you are the top outside line in the league, it is quite difficult to defend Lewis on the inside.
But Ray? What Allen didn't expect was that Kobe Bryant actually laughed, right? Aaron said, "I think you should think about how to comfort Rashad for a while." ”
Lewis saw that no one came to cover him, so he began to hit Li Du on his back, and hit him twice, Li Du didn't move at all, and he didn't care, he was not a person who relied on strength to eat, so he hit the top for the third time, and at the same time, he turned around and stuck Li Du behind him.
Lewis left Li Du behind him, and then he was about to dunk. As soon as he jumped up, he felt that the light in front of him dimmed, and a tall figure fell from the sky between him and the basket.
"Go down!" With a loud roar, Lewis only felt that the basketball in his hand suddenly turned into a meteorite, and he smashed it to the ground with him. Lewis quickly let go of his hand, and the meteorite basketball flew behind him, and he couldn't control his own center of gravity, and fell to the ground.
At this time, Lewis raised his head and saw that the figure that had just fallen from the sky turned out to be Li Du who was left behind by him!
Li Du looked at Lewis condescendingly, did not speak, and did not step forward to pull Lewis up. Lewis sat on the ground in horror and looked at Li Du, as if Li Du was a demon who had descended on the earth! A reporter from the Los Angeles Times keenly grasped the moment, which became the origin of Mr. Li's later monikish.
In fact, Li Du just looked at Lewis with disdain, and then turned around and high-fived Kobe Bryant. Thunder? Allen and Collison stepped forward to pull up Lewis, Ray? Aaron patted Lewis and asked, "Rashad, are you alright?" ”
Lewis shook his head and said, "I'm fine, thank you." Until now, he still had the same picture in his mind, a tall black shadow fell from the sky, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, until that pair of eyes were frighteningly bright, and behind that person, it seemed to be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
This is Lewis's illusion, Li Du didn't have a murderous aura at all just now, if it was someone else, maybe it would be okay at that time, Lewis's psychology is relatively fragile, and he may need to slow down for a few days.
Li Du fanned the ball out of bounds, and the SuperSonics served the baseline ball. Collison serves, he wanted to find Ray at first? Aaron, but found that Li Du was clinging to Lei? Allen, I had to find the team's No. 2 star, Rashad? Lewis.
It just so happened that Kobe, who was supposed to defend Lewis, left Lewis to Odom in order to strengthen his defense on the outside. Odom was already a little lazy on defense, and he was not his own defender, so he had a shooting gap in space!
"Chance!" Collison immediately threw the basketball in his hand at Lewis.
What no one expected was that Lewis didn't pick up the oncoming basketball when he saw it! Instead, he raised his hands and blocked the basketball! When Odom saw it, he hurriedly grabbed the falling basketball in his hand, waved his arm hard, and made a long pass to Kobe Bryant, who was running in front.
Bryant didn't dribble at all after receiving the ball, started with the momentum, jumped high when his foot just stepped on the line of the penalty area, glided in the air for a while, and then dunked the ball into the basket with a tomahawk dunk "clang".
At 48-43, the Lakers already have a five-point lead.
"Pause, pause!" SuperSonics head coach Bob Hill is going crazy! Hurriedly let Ray? Aaron called a timeout.
Thunder? Aaron doesn't understand either, what's wrong with Lewis? It was fine just now, why did it become like this after being covered by Li Du? It shouldn't be, Lewis is also a professional player, and his psychological quality can't be so bad!
In fact, not only the supersonic side, but also the Lakers' side didn't understand, Kobe Bryant also pulled Li Du and asked: "Lee, what did you do with Lashad?" Why did you scare him like that? ”
Li Du didn't understand either, and innocently defended: "Boss, I really don't have much of him, I didn't even fully exert my strength when I was blocking!" Who knows how he is so vulnerable! I've been wronged, boss! ”
Odom laughed and said, "It's okay, if you can really be scared like that, we wish you would scare all our opponents stupidly!" ”
Bob Hill has been a head coach in the NBA for many years, and when he was an assistant coach, it's been decades, and he's never seen anything like this! At that time, he directly replaced Lewis and replaced him with his more trusted substitute Damien? Wilkins.
Damien is a non-draft player, so he plays very hard, he is 1.98 meters tall, his muscles are very strong, and his skills are not good, but with a fighting spirit, he can now score 9.8 points, 1.9 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game, which can be said to be a qualified substitute.
Bob Hill's temper is not good, but he can't be angry at this time, replacing Lewis means that the offensive firepower of the supersonic is greatly weakened, although Damien is a qualified substitute, but it can't compare to the role of Lewis. But at the moment, Lewis's situation will only affect the whole team on the field!
Sigh, Bob Hill vs. Ray? Aaron said: "Ray, you are the only one to organize the attack for a while, Rashad is like this, and you are the only one left in the team who can take the initiative to score." ”
Thunder? Aaron nodded, but didn't speak. Now he is the only twin star left in the team, and what he needs to face is the powerful Lakers!
The timeout ended, and both sides returned to the field. After Dribbling past half court, Lidno passed the ball to Ray? Alan.
In the face of Li Du's close defense, Lei? Allen didn't dare to act rashly, he knew that the most amazing thing about this rookie was that it was one-on-one, and I was afraid that no one would be able to break through his defense, even if that person was an interior player!
So Ray? Allen beckoned Collison to come up and block with him, and the moment Collison blocked Li Du, Ray? Aaron took a step to the right, making a look like he was about to break through, Li Du forced his way past Collison, and was about to chase after him, Ray? Allen flicked his wrist to the right and passed to Damien, who was ambushed in the bottom corner of the right side, Damien did not attack, but passed back to Collison, who was standing one step inside the three-point line, Collison did not stop after receiving the ball, a direct pass, the ball went to the inside line, and just got rid of the thunder who took a step away from Li Du? Aaron's hands.
Thunder? Aaron didn't start at all after receiving the ball, and directly hit the ball with a board.
The score became 45-48, and the SuperSonics trailed by only three points.
Beautiful teamwork! Li Du also applauded this ball loudly in his heart, and the current Lakers team can only occasionally play such a beautiful team offense.
The Lakers attack, Kobe Bryant is still sharp, and the Lakers' internal and external cooperation is no better than the supersonic in thunder? The team under the leadership of Allen has a weaker attack, and even stronger!
By the end of the first half, the Lakers had a seven-point lead at 57-50.
In the first half, Kobe Bryant scored 20 points alone, Li Du also had 9 points and 1 block, Odom got 8 points and 9 rebounds, Bynum got 8 points and 8 rebounds, and the Lakers were in full bloom.
Supersonic here, Ray? Allen scored 18 points and made 3-of-9 three-pointers, with everyone else scoring scattered, none of them coming close to double figures, and the only thing worth mentioning was that Collison grabbed 11 rebounds. But these are not the most important, the most important thing is that Lewis has been in a trance since he was pressed to the ground by a big hat from Li Du, and if he can't come back to his senses, the supersonic can directly admit defeat in the second half.
After all, Ray? No matter how rich Allen's attacking methods are, he is also facing a player who is known as a "magical rookie" for his defensive achievements. Aaron has already used all his tricks, and his physical strength is also depleted quickly, and if it goes on like this, the third quarter of thunder? Aaron will be tired and lie down!
