After the Cavaliers learned that Li Zhen made entertainment news last night, they were overjoyed.

And when the news broke that McDean Anthony couldn't attend the opening game because of a stomach cold, they were even more happy.

But at the same time, I started to feel uncomfortable again.

"Shouldn't they have deliberately made these off-the-field messages because they knew they couldn't beat them? If you lose, you say the manager didn't come. Daniel Gibson said worriedly in the locker room.

The Cavaliers agreed with what he said.

At this time, Drugouden stood up and said a powerful word: "Then hit the combo, hit the slaughter, and let them have no way to retreat." ”

The bold remarks resonated strongly in the locker room.

Damon Jones even ran out and emphasized: "Then slaughter them for 40 points and make Madison Garden bleed!!"

All of a sudden, there was a rush of emotion in the visiting locker room, as if the Knicks had become fish on the chopping block.

On the contrary, Larry Hughes, who was entrusted with the task today, is quite calm.

Back yesterday, McBrown watched a video of Lee Zhen this season with him, the defensive coach, and the videographer, and McBrown is very confident with the defensive coach. They believe that Larry Hughes can completely restrain Li Zhen because the balance of power between the two sides is obvious. What's more, Li Zhen's physical fitness can't play the whole game, even three quarters.

However, Larry Hughes himself is sober.

Although he is a steal king, he doesn't think his single defense skills have reached the league's top level. What's more, "the confrontation of forces is only one part of the defense." Bruce's flexibility, agility, explosiveness, speed, and coordination are already among the best in the league, and now I don't react as well as before, and I may not be able to lock him completely, and I think to defend him, I still need to wrap him, or LeBron to help defend on the wing. ”

He was very sincere.

But the manager trusts him very, very, very much.

He even deliberately ran to him this afternoon and said, "Who knows where Giselle Bundchen took him to a safe place last night." Maybe he was squeezed dry. ”

Middle-aged men always like to make this kind of colored joke.

Larry Hughes, however, felt that Lee was really an upright man, and his rapid progress was enough to show that he was very self-disciplined. And... Some scandals are too exaggerated, and they pass on women like something, and they want to sleep with him when they see him, which is too low-level.

……

"I feel like you're handsome again."

When Li Zhen walked into the Madison Garden arena, the security guard was the fifth person to say this to him.

And when he walked into the locker room, Zach Randolph, who was trimming his eyebrows in the mirror, saw him and couldn't help but exclaim, "Hey, Bruce." I haven't seen you for two days, why are you so handsome again? ”

Yes?

Throw plenty of dirt and some will be sure to stick.

Li Zhen frowned, subconsciously walked over and looked in the mirror.

He was really taken aback.

Although I am still myself in the mirror, I do seem to be more handsome than the last time I looked in the mirror, and that handsome atmosphere is indescribably pleasing to the eye.

Yes....

Li Zhen hurriedly shook his head and couldn't look at it anymore. Looking at it again, I had to meditate on the handsome guy in the mirror for half an hour.

"Do you think I'm more temperamental than I was yesterday?"

Zachrandorf, who had trimmed his eyebrows, turned around and asked Li Zhen's opinion.

Li Zhen glanced at Zack, and he couldn't see any change at all, except that he trimmed his eyebrows a little thinner...... However, with his face, which is so dark that even a mosaic can't destroy it, does it make any difference whether his eyebrows are repaired or not?

"Hmm. Temperament, you have been very thorough. When Li Zhen said this, he touched his chest and kept emphasizing: This is a white lie.

Zach was delighted.

So happy that he didn't even ask Li Zhen about the gossip last night.

Li Zhen also hurried to the stadium to train.

Before, he never thought that what he got from Gisele Bundchen was actually 4 points of strength, and with Gisele's physique, he couldn't see it... It wasn't until he saw the bruise on his crotch when he changed his pants just now that he kind of understood.

You can’t judge a book by its cover.

Last night was certainly not less.

Li Zhen came to the court, he started to warm up, and then he put himself into 100% training.

When he broke through quickly, he realized the extra impact of 4 points of power, and his shooting consistency improved significantly when he was already on a pullup jumper...... It seems that the ratio of various talents in the body is indeed the reason why his shooting is not accurate enough, so it is probably the reason why he starts the whole body.

Nate Robinson then became Lee's sparring partner.

Because he was there and he was saying, "Excuse me, where is the safest cave?" Victoria's Secret !!

This kind of insinuation caused his teammates to laugh, and Li Zhen certainly couldn't let him go.

So, ten rounds later.

Nate Robinson collapsed.

He never dreamed that he would be beaten 10:0 by Li Zhen.

He didn't even get a chance to touch the ball.

"Hey, Bruce. How do you improve every day? Moreover, you are actually more handsome than before, it's really strange, why do I always feel attracted to you when I see you. "Nate Robinson was going insane.

But at this time, Li Zhen was indeed ecstatic.

He thought that 4 points of strength would bring confrontation, but he didn't expect that what would be increased was attack firepower. These 4 points of power make his stop-and-go jump shots and throws more stable during breakaways, which greatly enhances his offensive possibilities, enriches his arsenal, and can even be said to have three attack modes at the beginning.

Prior to that, his most common attacks were attacking the box for basket finishing, and running without the ball when he was fit to catch the ball. Now, his pull-up jump shot can also be output when he is fully fit.

Although, abusing a small man like Nate Robinson who can't defend is something that the Knicks can basically do from the outside.

But this significance is a multiplier effect for Li Zhen, a great assister.

He's starting to have more confidence in tonight's game.

At the same time, he was also thinking: my current strength is 64, if my strength rises above 80, is it possible for me to become a kaleidoscope on the offensive end like Kobe? After all, I can actually use any offensive means, but my physical condition is limited and I can't use it.

How strong I should be by then.

Li Zhen couldn't help but reverie in his heart.

At present, Li Zhen's talent can be divided into three gears. The speed and explosiveness are both 95, and it can reach 97 in the extreme burst state, which is the top level of the league. Flexibility and agility are both 92, which is considered a first-class level in the NBA. The coordination is only 84, which is considered a medium level. In addition, the bounce height, strength, and physical fitness can only be regarded as the league's middle to lower at best.

So, the room for improvement is huge.

Sometimes, Li Zhen even thinks... Otherwise, I'd just open up my body and let them put me to sleep.

But think about it, if people have bad intentions, how can so many women love me 100%.

When the time comes, stealing chickens will not be a waste of rice, but how wronged it will be to be beaten as a degenerate.

People, or upright.

Yesterday's situation was an accident, that is, someone deliberately made it bad and hit it by mistake...... As soon as he thought of bumping, Li Zhen couldn't help but rub the bruises on his crotch. How hard Giselle is going?

Li Zhen was a little indignant.

I wonder if I'll hit it back next time.

Good man, you can't suffer in this matter.

The Chinese have always paid attention to the husband as the wife, man-up, wan-down.

How can the world be turned upside down?

……

Isaiah Thomas walked out of James Dolan's office with a difficult look on his face one hour before the start of the game.

Alas!

Those who can work hard!

When the news of D'Antoni's stomach cold came, James Dolan panicked, he took the game very seriously, and he knew about the confrontation between the New York media and the Cleveland media all summer. If this game is lost, the people over there may not be how arrogant or domineering.

But the country can't be without a king for a day, and the team can't be without a head coach for a day.

What should I do if D'Antoni is not there?

At this time, the first person that popped into his mind was Isaiah Thomas.

Thomas has always been a hard-working man in his heart, he does not complain when he is wronged, and he is honest and frank. Last season, when he was in danger, he braved the world's condemnation to bring Li Zhen back from Memphis, and then led the army all the way to counterattack, playing from the penultimate in the East to the Eastern Conference semifinals, so hard work. Outcome... He actually took the initiative to let Xian without hesitation, which is really a high style.

Every time he thinks of this, James Dolan feels that he has lost a lot of money, and Thomas has a lot of money.

But now this is the case.

He could only ask Isaiah Thomas to come out.

"Isaiah, I will not forget your credit, and the club will not ignore your hard work. This time, D'Antoni can't play, this game is very high, the team is at a critical moment, I think about it, only when you are on the bench, can you stabilize the morale of the army, can you beat the fierce Cavaliers. It's all up to you!! ”

James Dolan put it bluntly: "After this game, we will reward you." ”

Alas!

Isaiah Thomas sighed.

He thought about it for a long time before he thought about what the phrase Stephen Marbury often said in the locker room: "If I don't go to hell, who will!" ”

This is a deep statement.

James Dolan was moved beyond measure, the wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers.

We removed him from the manager's position in the summer, and instead of complaining, he worked so well and didn't hesitate to step up when he was needed.

What a good man who stands up to the sky.

"I'll leave it all to you!!" James Dolan slapped Isaiah Thomas on the shoulder hard to show his respect.

Isaiah Thomas raised his chin and said justice: "I'm going." If I don't kill the knight tonight, I vow not to go home! ”

With that, he stepped out the door.

James Dolan was once again impressed by Isaiah Thomas's impassionedness, what a good boy, and it seemed that his promotion to co-president was on the agenda.

……

Isaiah Thomas came out of the door, and his erect shoulders immediately collapsed.

Just now, I was forced to wear a dress, and I didn't think about the specific operation at all.

How good is that!!

He walked quickly to the court and found Li Zhen as soon as possible: "Bruce, Bruce." How to deal with the enemy tonight, you have a plan. ”

"Well, I have an immature idea. In the first half tonight, we just played the Cavaliers in the first half and played slowly, what do you think? ”

Lee also knew D'Antoni wouldn't be there tonight.

So, he went out of his way to talk to Thomas.

Thomas clapped his hands at the time: "Okay, just do it for you." Later, I'll fill in the details for you, and when you get to the ring, you'll play along that lines. ”

Li Zhen nodded, he felt that Isaiah Thomas was quite understanding.

Who knows, Isaiah Thomas turned around and went to Jamilin and other assistant coaches, and he explained: "The purpose of tonight's first half is to play slow and slow, and to play half-court position against half-time position. You guys have to take out the specific tactics and highlight the dual-core role of Bruce and Zachrandolph, do you understand? Of course, the most important thing is to give the basketball to Bruce! ”

Jamie Lin and the others nodded hurriedly, and hurried to work.

After Isaiah Thomas finished arranging, he raised his eyebrows, and this job was not difficult.

It's as simple as a middleman making a difference, and it would be nice if it was so simple to make a black aunt.

With the completion of his work, and add the joy of the mood. When a reporter from the front of TNT came up to him and asked him what he thought of the match, he tightened his tie and told the audience in front of the TV in a straight voice: "Winning is never a problem, it's a question of how to win." ”

The reporter was frightened by his strong self-confidence, you must know that most of this game is optimistic about the Cleveland Cavaliers, after all, the Cavaliers were the overall runner-up last season. He quickly asked, "Then how are you going to win?" ”

"As we all know, Coach D'Antoni was unavailable for tonight's game because of a cold. So, tonight we're going to show off our talent in other areas, lest the Cleveland media get back into the mess and say we're bullying them. ”

The smiling assassin was full of smiles, he was a mediocre person, but when the cowhide was blown, he did have a little temperament.

It's a world away from Zach Randolph dancing on TV in fat shorts.

Subsequently, the reporter began to stir up trouble: "Just now, the starting point guard of the Cavaliers said that they have a chance to beat you by 30 points, what do you think?" ”

"It's a good thing for young people to have momentum, it's like the waves crashing wildly against a cliff, always wave after wave. But when the tide goes out, you will find that the cliff is still the same cliff, and the waves are long gone. That's how life is. ”

"They've all said that, I don't have anything to pretend about, I've got a showdown, and tonight we're going to win them by double digits."

Isaiah Thomas raised an eyebrow freezes on James Dolan's television.

This damn charm made James Dolan take a hard puff of his cigar to stabilize his surging mood.

Isaiah is a capable man!
