Chapter 316: Lakers Squad of Players! (3 chapters combined)
The wind is blowing.
Wharton felt like the team's form was immediately different.
The atmosphere of the fans was instantly ignited by Kobe's appearance! In the pre-season, the Black Mamba did not play a single game.
Kobe Bryant was not seen on the bench, and the media also speculated that Kobe Bryant might be going to take a leave of absence in the first game of the regular season.
Then there are the injuries that are far away, and the news of Kobe's retirement may finally come.
But no, Kobe Bryant is back!
Before the game, Bryant gave a pre-season speech. Many fans at the scene can feel their own excitement at this moment!
The Lakers have been on the court for 20 years, and as a Kobe Bryant fan, they can basically see Black Mamba on the court, whether he is sick, injured, or older.
As long as he is on the field, the fans can see hope!
The Lakers completely scrapped two seasons, which were not easy for Kobe.
He was a very competitive man. Even if in the playoffs that year, no one from his team could partner with him, and the four of them watched, Kobe Bryant fought to the end!
For this new season, Kobe's heart has been shaken.
Because of the old injuries on his body at this time, the way the team is now, and his age.
It seems that the time has come to retire.
Life after retirement is tempting. Kobe Bryant can still feel the comfort when he retires at this time~
When you don't dare to play the season, you can experience the life of big fish and meat~Pat the beer belly~
Holding a water gun in his hand, a swimming ring or something, and then revealing the middle-aged uncle's X-dropped, greasy smile~
After playing basketball for so many years, Kobe Bryant now wants to experience the feeling of becoming a Dagger~
After retiring, he officially bid farewell to this stage.
But this season, Kobe Bryant still has a mood, that is, he still wants to fight.
Although the players in the team are very different from last season, the coach has also changed, and the media on the management side can now have a two-episode TV series a day......
He saw Li Feng's form in the last preseason game, saw Zubac still have potential as a young center, and saw Ingram's highlight performance in the preseason.
I don't think it's okay to play another season.
But when it comes to passing the ball to his teammates, he struggles a little bit.
Because when Kobe Bryant went to pass the ball to his teammates, the disappointment that greeted him in the previous two seasons was greater than hope.
After the speech, Wade walked over and Kobe Bryant had a huge hug~
Wade patted Kobe Bryant on the back and whispered something to him.
The whole team of the Lakers watched this heartwarming scene from the side.
Wade: "It's time to retire and I say ~ I'm not too young ~"
Kobe: "Then why don't you retire?" ”
Wade: "...... I haven't played enough~"
Kobe: "Me too~ I want to play another season." And then we'll talk about it then. With me here, you have to be careful~"
Wade: "With me, don't be too arrogant with you, I'll tell you~"
Kobe: "It's okay, you can fight casually, in the end, I will kill you~"
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and some of the facilities at the scene were moved down by the staff.
Kobe Bryant appeared on the big screen, and the fans cheered enthusiastically again.
But Kobe Bryant didn't see that, he was directing his players.
Wharton put his right hand on Bryant's shoulder on the sidelines, nodding his head as he listened.
Everyone's mood is good today! Wharton could clearly feel that.
As he said with Kerr last season, and with Kidd the other day.
In a team like this, he wants to make some achievements. He's going to make the playoffs this season!
Rondo: "The Lakers are like this, I think they may not be the 15th in the West this season, and they may finally be able to play the 13th in the West~ You are still laughing. That's pretty good~"
Wade heard Rondo's teasing not far away, and he lowered his head and thought about things with his hands on his hips.
It would be nice if it was like what Rondo said, but the Lakers' player setup at this time made Peter Pan feel bad.
Who is Wharton? How many games did you lose last season when you were the interim head coach of the Warriors?
That first-grader, Ingram, can shoot and run! And that guy named Li Feng.
Thinking of Li Feng, Wade took a deep breath. In the previous two seasons, Li Feng has always been a substitute player.
But this season, Li Feng appeared as the Lakers' main guard!
The Lakers are like this, and naturally they still affirm Li Feng's previous performance. In the end, he signed a contract with Li Feng with a guaranteed contract of $1,300 per year!
Naturally, the outside world has a fierce opinion on this matter.
A third-grader can get such attention from the Lakers?
Wouldn't Li Feng be the victim of the Lakers' management infighting?
There's a voice saying that Lakers management wants to swing right away and then try to get more high-draft picks.
At the same time, in the last year or two, the team has recruited several big-name stars, and if Kobe Bryant retires, the Lakers need such stars to come to town.
The Internet said that the Lakers have been in communication with more than 10 teams now. Although it is very difficult to communicate with other teams at this time......
The Chicago Bulls have also officially shuffled this season, and the departure of two heavyweights, Rose and Noah, has caused widespread dissatisfaction among their fans!
Although Rose has been injured in recent years, his explosiveness is really high!
And Noah has been the backbone of Chicago's defense over the years, how can he say that he will take it away?
Fred has not been able to get out of his spirits this season, because the team has a lot of new players, and it is still difficult for them to make a good performance right away.
Fortunately, the first game was against the "famous" team in the West. It seems that it is still very easy to get off to a good start~
Kobe Bryant he likes and appreciates it.
But the Bulls' first win was theirs!
Fred: "Kobe Bryant isn't that good now. You have to come in and stop him during the game.
The rest of the players, Clarkson and Nick Young, and the preseason one...... Ingram, yes, they need to be more careful."
At the end of the pre-match speech, Fred briefly told his players what to pay attention to on the field.
This season, the Bulls can say that the star of the house and several important players with organizational skills are not young.
They have a lot of experience in the field. The team should also be able to do a good job in terms of injury control.
Which team has encountered the problem of injuries, and which team can deeply understand the pain caused to them......
If the Clippers hadn't had so many injuries over the years, it is estimated that they would have won the championship in the previous seasons!
Kobe: "Wade has me to defend, you have to pay attention to Li Feng's words and passes in the game!"
Don't think I don't know what's going on in your hearts.
I have a good relationship with Wharton, so if you don't give me serious plays, be careful with your stats and minutes this season.
Hear no! Russell! ”
Russell: "What? Yes? I'll keep an eye on the boss of the defensive team! ”
On the court, Bryant suddenly turned back to Russell on the bench and said this. Scared the hell out of him.
Lu Wei and Nance Jr. were sitting on the field at this time, and Lu Wei was not able to play at this time.
But Nance Jr. was almost recovered by this time.
At this time, the players on the field looked at each other, but they all showed great excitement.
Why did Kobe Bryant speak for Li Feng as soon as he came back today?
They also know that Kobe Bryant and Wharton have a good relationship, and everyone has seen the relationship between Wharton and Li Feng......
It seems that the Lakers are really going to change this season.
These veterans who "worked hard" in the previous two seasons are not as high as Li Feng in terms of popularity and attention at this time......
Fortunately, Kobe Bryant has been playing on the team.
At this time, the opposing starters have already arrived on the field, they are Robin, Gibson, Mirotic, Wade and Rondo!
The Bulls still have good defensive ability this season, but they are still weaker than last season.
One of the biggest impressions for many fans this season is that Wade should be on the Heat?
When he suddenly came to Chicago, he felt a little uncomfortable, and there was a big contract of 20 million + dollars a year for Wade, and there was a quarrel on the Internet at this time.
If Miami had offered him this salary, there might not have been too many quarrels over it.
But other teams have been skeptical of this. Like this season, Kobe Bryant took the maximum salary contract offered by the Lakers, and almost no one objected......
Kobe Bryant led a group of teammates on the court, and the Lakers' starters tonight were Randle, Lore Deng, Nick Young, Li Feng and Kobe!
The camera has been shown many times sitting on the bench, and Clarkson, who has also scored 1000+ this season......
At this time, Clarkson was close to facial paralysis.
There was no wave in his heart, and he even wanted to laugh.
In the first two seasons, he competed with a number of defenders for the number of starts. It's a race to see who is more consistent on the field.
He did get Scott's favor as well. But this season, everything has changed.
Both Lordeng and Lopez jumped at the same time! In the end, Lore Deng got the basketball, Kobe Bryant received his pass, and the fans on the scene suddenly became agitated at this time!
Facing Wade's defense, Kobe Bryant finally chose to pass the ball to Li Feng, and Nick Young got up after receiving Li Feng's ball and scored a three-pointer!
Bryant nodded at Li Feng and the black man question mark. Then he ran back.
During Scott's season, Bryant was still trying to be a "behind-the-scenes" player for the team.
Because after so many years with the Lakers, Kobe Bryant has developed feelings for this team.
I score points or something, and there are not many people who can control it in the game.
But what does the future hold for the Lakers. After he retires, will the Lakers have a soft landing or will they run aground?
Kobe Bryant has also attached great importance to the rookies he has obtained in recent years. For example, Russell, who looked young on the bench at this time, and Ingram, who looked like he was about to fall asleep.
They may all be the future of the team!
Nick Young: "Li Feng, this guy!" Should have played in Los Angeles two years ago!! Love Li Feng so much! ”
Li Feng: "......"
Kobe: "You're not too young, can you be more mature?" ”
Looking at the emoji that was still dancing in the game, Kobe Bryant smiled helplessly.
Li Feng felt the current Kobe Bryant on the field at this time, which was indeed much gentler than when he was young......
In fact, it is still a matter of who......
Wade quickly went to the front and distributed the ball to Rondo.
Gibson got the basketball and directly chose to single Randle with his back, and was finally cut off by Nick Young!
Mirotic immediately picked up the basketball, looked at the defenders around him, and when he didn't, he got up and hit a three-pointer!
Zubac: "Look at the regular season, can you guard against that Mirotic? ”
Young Zubac, who was sitting on the bench at this time, said to Ingram.
Ingram: "He's not particularly strong, either. But Brother Li said that the regular season and preseason are not the same level of difficulty.
Let's be ready. It's true that none of the previous data is important. Or do you have to start from scratch"
Wharton: "Fight!" Ingram, do you dare to sleep?! ”
Ingram: "No! Instructor! I, I'm keeping my eyes open. Look at the way I look."
Wharton: "...... If you want to sleep, I think you're challenging me. Keep your eyes open."
Zubac: "......"
Li Feng is a two-season championship ring winner. And Kobe Bryant doesn't have to think about it.
And that "nerve knife" Nick Young. Such a combination of the Lakers really made the Bulls dare not take it too lightly for a while.
Now on their team's side, the main point of attack is on Mirotic and Wade.
Kobe Bryant dribbled the ball to the front court this time and deceived the opponent with Wade's direct feint!
Then he passed Rondo's help defense and Mirotic scored a layup!
The textbook-like action is addictive for fans to watch!
In Kobe's opinion just now, the first three people can come and defend him immediately. Isn't that just a big gap~
Wade's fighting spirit at this time was also inspired by Kobe. He directly and quickly held the ball, and easily passed Li Feng with one speed!
But when he finally got to the Lakers' basket, he chose to pass the ball, and Gibson took the ball and immediately gave it to Rondo.
Rondo, who had just arrived, got up and hit a three-pointer! 6:5!
Fred applauded excitedly after seeing this scene!
Wade is a lot older, and so is Rondo. But they're so old when they play on the field!
This is completely different from the Chicago Bulls during the previous Rose period.
The Bulls, with the Roses as the main core, are very aggressive in their style of play! But the overall team's coordination was not good.
But Wade also knows that this team is still primarily a defensive team.
So as long as you don't meet teams like the Warriors, Hawks, Spurs. They can work on the 2-pointer.
Kobe Bryant is still holding the ball, and the way he looks at Wade this time has a look that you dare not play.
Peter Pan Wade smiled and shook his head.
Kobe Bryant motioned for him to pass, and as a result, Kobe Bryant passed Wade again! And in the face of Gibson, he turned around and made a jumper with a 2-point hollow shot!
The Black Mamba's offense is sometimes a near-insoluble existence!
Rondo is going to go straight down, and the Lakers are coming and waiting for those young people to come up!
At this time, the Lakers, with Kobe Bryant and Li Feng in charge, actually felt extremely difficult to fight......
Wharton was also calm when he found himself on the big screen.
Compared with last season, it is true that the Lakers this season are much better from the beginning of the game!
At the moment, in Walton's mind, the Lakers have 4-9 people capable of okay.
If they want to play in the regular season, obviously they can't do it at this time.
The two consecutive provocations made Wade's face a little unbearable.
He directly motioned to Kobe Bryant to come over, and then the fans watched the scene excitedly.
Bryant and Wade kept a certain distance, and both couldn't help but laugh.
From a young age they were bitter enemies! Now both of them are old, but their combat power is still very high!
Wade didn't pass a few times, and then the two began to "die entangle" with each other! In the end, Wade got up and hit a 2-pointer when he was forced by Kobe to the bottom corner!
Kobe: "Your combat power has decreased~"
Wade: "You can wait until the end to see if you can kill me." Let's see how I kill you in the end! Black Mamba! ”
Kobe: "The combat power has become lower, but the ability to tell jokes is much stronger~"
Wade didn't joke with Kobe Bryant anymore this time, and he's already starting to take today's game seriously!
This time, Kobe Bryant did not continue to go head-to-head with Wade, but chose to pass the ball to Li Feng.
Looking at Li Feng's current state, he is indeed somewhat similar to Jeremy Lin a few years ago.
In the game, Li Feng did not choose various passes to him because he was Kobe.
Instead, I've been watching the situation on the field! The first goal scored by the Lakers today was shot by Nick Young, and the person who passed the ball to him was Li Feng!
Every time Kobe Bryant meets such a player, he has a feeling that he feels okay at first glance.
Because I think a good player is someone who can think independently on the field.
For example, in the game, he always thinks about passing the ball to him, so Kobe Bryant feels that such a player is basically not very capable.
Because of this kind of passing, there is a certain dependence on teammates in the game.
At this time, the Lakers can play well in the game, and Kobe Bryant has the impression that three people can appear immediately, Li Feng, Clarkson and Nick Young.
But the black question mark is that sometimes it's not in tune.
Li Feng took a few steps back and raised his hand to signal his teammates to spread out as much as possible.
Originally, the Bulls' defense is good now, and if people are together, it will be much more beneficial to the opponent.
Randle: The first thing they did was to look at Kobe. The Black Mamba actually did what Li Feng's team said.
Luo Erdeng and Lan Dou were both a little incredulous and immediately did as Li Feng requested.
Rondo had been observing Li Feng, but when he found that he had come by himself, he immediately ran over.
But in the end, Li Feng passed the ball to Lan Dou.
Randle got Li Feng's pass and immediately scored 2 points on Gibson with his back!
Seeing the direction of Mirotic's serve, Li Feng immediately rushed over.
In the end, Wade didn't get the ball. Li Feng adjusted his posture after breaking the ball, and directly got up and hit a three-point shot!
12:8! The fans at the scene were shocked by Li Feng's actions! It's been a long time since I've seen a Lakers player, except for Kobe Bryant, who can still have such a performance!
Kobe Bryant stood with his hands on his hips under the backcourt at this time and nodded slightly.
Li Feng, a player, in the eyes of Black Mamba, is a teammate with a big heart. There are a few such players in the team, and some of them have played this season!
Just like he did with Gasol back then. I don't care too much, it has to be a center and a power forward, and there are great players here.
What Walton didn't know was that Bryant had started setting season goals for the Lakers this season two days ago.
And in a few days, Kobe Bryant's goal for the season of his own team became bigger and bigger.
Li Feng hit a three-point shot immediately after the steal. Let the Bulls ask for a timeout.
How can a team that has been rotten for two seasons in a row overtake the score?
Fred: "That guy named Li Feng needs to pay extra attention!" Don't take it lightly!
The Lakers shouldn't be this strong, right? ”
Wade: "There's Li Feng here." So the Lakers have changed. ”
The Bulls' players on the sidelines were silent. Although they are reluctant to admit it, Wade seems to be right.
Rondo did as the boss said. Butler came running at this point.
Fred: "You defended Kobe Bryant!" Wade mainly looked at Li Feng, don't let him score too many points on the field, or assist too much!
Playing against the Lakers, their overall combat power is still not high. Look at the new players, there are a lot of them on the bench!
So don't worry about it at all. We just need to drag the game to the second or third quarter so we can quickly put the Lakers behind and try to extend our lead to 15 points in the third quarter......"
The Lakers are now, not to mention the 15-point deficit. The 5-point deficit is basically impossible to catch up with if Kobe Bryant is not present.
That's the impression their team makes on the rest of the team.
Wharton: "We had a great time! We've regrouped this season, and so have the other side.
So don't have too much burden on your mind. Just keep it as it was.
The Bulls are definitely looking for a way to step up their defense. How is Kobe Bryant now? No problem, right? ”
Wharton knows very well that the main thing to do this season is not to let the Black Mamba get too tired, let alone get him injured.
Bryant: "No problem at all"
Wharton: "Good! Everyone continues to be as they were. I'll change people later. Played well, and gave the newcomer some chances at the end of the first quarter......"
I didn't expect the Lakers to beat the Chicago Bulls to a timeout at the beginning!
There are a few Lakers players on the bench, waiting for Li Feng to make a fool of himself, and that Lore Deng, it seems that the management attaches great importance to him.
But the result was that they took the lead, Li Feng showed a good sense of the overall situation and awareness of the game, and Kobe's offense was still sharp!
The team seems to be back to the way it was a few years ago, and not only Walton is happy, but Kobe Bryant also has that feeling in his heart that he hasn't felt for a long time.
Back on the field, Butler came with a black face. Li Feng suddenly felt panicked when he saw him......
This guy is a typical player with a strong confrontation ability!
Wade strolled through half court and eventually passed the ball to Gibson, who didn't think much about scoring a jumper with Randle's defense right away!
Kobe Bryant received a pass, and he motioned for Li Feng to go first.
Butler posted it right away! Hands open!
Bryant was nearly cut off twice by Butler, and then Black Mamba smiled at him.
While protecting the basketball, he pushed Butler to the frontcourt.
Butler's persistent defense has also boosted Kobe's fighting spirit.
In the end, when 24 seconds were missing, Kobe Bryant let Butler receive a foul, and finally stood by the free throw line and hit all 3 free throws!
Butler: "Aren't you unstoppable?" I just stopped you! It's almost 24 seconds, right?! ”
Bryant smiled and shook his head on the sidelines to look at Butler.
Butler: "You can't win!" You don't want to score in front of me! ”
The young and vigorous Butler said to Kobe Bryant with a glare.
Bryant: "Young man. When you're sent off, you can't fart on the field. to be able to recognize the reality! ”
Wade immediately pulled Butler over. Tell him to be serious about defense and less nonsense. The latter didn't say anything provocative to Kobe Bryant after seeing Wade say this.
Indeed, Butler's defense is good! But in Kobe's opinion, it's still quite pediatric.
This time, Wade faced Kobe Bryant and chose to pass the ball to Mirotic in the entanglement, who staggered and shot a three-point jumper after staggering with Nick Young!
Mirotic felt hot to the touch today. But on the Chicago Bulls' side, they haven't had a clue so far.
I still feel like this game is still quite difficult. The Lakers' power is unknown until now.
Because they seem to be in control of the rhythm of the game!
……
Wharton: "I'm not going to let the newbies play too much in the next games. So in the second quarter, I allowed the team to make mistakes.
Of course, in the end, there were no mistakes. Now, Li Feng still organizes the competition. Everyone has to follow his arrangements on the field.
The Bulls' ability is still very strong. In the first quarter, you also saw their defensive prowess......"
33:27! Wade and Rondo also hit a couple of three-pointers in the late stages. They found that they couldn't do it that way.
In the end, the first quarter of the game led the Lakers by 6 points into the second quarter of the game.
This is last season's Warriors assistant coach who came here with his old department. Clarkson thought as he walked out into the ring.
The Lakers' lineup for the second quarter was Zubac, Randle, Ingram, Li Feng and Clarkson.
Zubac and Ingram walked onto the field, and the fans cheered them on.
Although the Lakers are mostly young now, these young people almost all have a good past in the past.
Players with high picks, when they come here, the management naturally expects more from them.
Zubac's ability to play under the basket is not bad, but the jumper, movement and defense have not been reflected much in the preseason.
However, Ingram has averaged good data in more than a dozen preseason games.
The Bulls' lineup changed to Gibson, Doug, Butler, Mirotic and Rondo. It looks like a small lineup!
Mirotic's excellent touch allowed Fred to keep him on the field.
In the second half of the game, it was not too much of a problem to mainly let Wade control the field, and then pay attention to the coordination.
The win over the Lakers is basically stable. Since it doesn't work to play 2 points with your opponent, let's fight them for 3 points!
This is the dominant offensive mode in the league right now. Three-point rain, whether it is crushing the opponent, opening up the distance or chasing points behind is very effective.
But only if your team has a certain amount of three-point ability......
Bryant sat on the bench at this time and watched the game. He still has a lot of confidence in his team.
Wharton's main idea now is still good, which is to find a chance to beat the Bulls in the next game after giving the young man a certain amount of play!
I guess I took care of the players.
Rondo held the ball through the half, and finally Butler got the ball and hit a three-point jumper next to Ingram!
Zubac inexplicably picked up a rebound, and after Li Feng got his pass, he quickly rushed across the half court.
But there were no players to cover or block him, and Clarkson looked at Li Feng from a distance, just standing there and watching.
The Lakers' rhythm in the first quarter of the game became much weaker.
In the end, under the bag of Mirotic and Butler, Li Feng immediately threw a high pass to Ingram, who quickly rushed to the basket.
That's how he played in the preseason, and the opponent didn't look as strong as in the first quarter.
But just as he passed Doug and was about to dunk, Butler arrived in time and shot Ingram with a bloody cap!
Ingram looked at the strong Butler with a "you are ruthless" look, and then was pushed hard by Gibson next to him.
And so the man flew out......
Wharton was in a hurry! He immediately told the referee on the spot that his opponent's movements were too big. And Butler's action just now was obviously a foul.
In the end, Wharton got the referee's eyes.
Wharton angrily walked around the sidelines with a tactical board several times.
Zubac immediately went to the sideline to serve, and this time Randle got the ball, and his layup was directly blocked by Gibson.
Then Butler grabbed the basketball directly and ran to the front court!
Running from the backcourt to the frontcourt to the basket, no one could catch up with Butler. In the end, the latter dunked with one hand and scored points!
In this section of the game, both sides did not feel very good.
According to the current state of Randle not cooperating with himself much, and Clarkson is playing with himself emotionally.
Li Feng felt that the difficulty of this section of the competition had suddenly increased.
Fortunately, these two rookies still listen to their own words, and Li Feng can cooperate with Ingram and Zubac.
Li Feng held the ball over the half court and motioned for Clarkson to come over to respond, but the opponent was standing in the bottom corner.
In the end, Li Feng had no choice, seeing that his players were all stuck by the opponent, he could only come by himself.
Under the defense of Mirotic, Li Feng hit the iron with three points!
Butler got the ball again and ran fast! Such a situation infuriated Li Feng!
He immediately chased after him! When Kobe Bryant saw this, he immediately stood up with a smile and applauded Li Feng in advance.
Butler felt that no one on the Lakers could catch up with him, so he quickly rushed to the front three seconds without looking back.
Just as he got up to lift the ball, Li Feng flew the basketball fan out with a bloody cap!
Butler was so frightened that he didn't stand still and sat down on the ground.
He didn't expect Clarkson to return to defense so quickly. When I saw Li Feng, I knew who gave him the big hot pot!
Butler: "Take your high salary with peace of mind!" Don't be around me like this. I'll make you doubt your life! ”
Li Feng looked at the 200 embarrassing income provided by Butler backstage and felt that it was a little less.
This guy's weight in Chicago at this time is not low.
Li Feng: "Seeking Targeting"
Embarrassment from Butler +832!
Li Feng nodded, well, this income is not bad~
Butler watched Li Feng for 10 seconds! Is this kid inflated like this now?
Don't look at yourself and ask for a target?! Do you think you're Kobe?
Seeing Li Feng nodding beautifully there, Butler also nodded a few times.
Clarkson: "You're looking for death"
Li Feng listened to Clarkson next to him say this. He didn't respond to him, and Gibson was already on the sidelines.
Butler directly took the initiative to ask for the ball and knocked him to the ground directly from Li Feng.
At this time, Li Feng was suddenly possessed by a Hollywood actor!
He spun around twice on the floor and hugged his knees in pain.
Embarrassment from Butler +497!
He knew that although he had hit him hard just now, it wouldn't be enough......
The referee couldn't stand it either. And that's not a penalty. So what does the referee do?
And just like that, Butler received another foul. Fred also paid attention to this.
Even if Butler's defense is strong and he commits six fouls early, he can't continue to defend against the Lakers.
This time, Li Feng directly took the pass, and then ran with the ball!
The players on the Bulls' side subconsciously didn't guard against Li Feng being too ruthless.
But Butler immediately followed, and kept waiting for Li Feng to shoot by his side!
As long as Li Feng shoots, he will give Li Feng a bloody cap to teach him a lesson!
The opponent's attention was also attracted by Li Feng's side! They're all looking to see if Butler can foul again, and if that happens, the Bulls' timeout isn't far off.
In order to curb Butler's frequent fouls, the team had to replace him.
Send him up again at the critical moment.
Clarkson suddenly took Li Feng's pass at this time and hit a three-point shot without defense!
The fans at the scene immediately cheered.
The current opponent lineup, although not strong, has a very strong Butler on the field.
What Li Feng is thinking about now is whether he can restrict this player immediately!
Then distract the other players and wait for the opportunity to pass the ball!
Now that the overall rhythm of the Lakers' side has come down, let's lead the team rhythm alone!
Even if some teammates don't deal with Li Feng, you can't help but score, right?
If they give up even the score, then Li Feng has no choice.
You can see that the Bulls are playing fast offense, Rondo rushes to the bottom corner, receives the pass from his teammates and immediately shoots three points or iron!
Butler quickly ran to Li Feng again. Ingram looked at Li Feng's eyes and finally passed the ball to Clarkson.
The latter rushed straight with the ball!
Huh, let me pass the ball?
Clarkson sneered inwardly.
Then he quickly rushed over, ready to score a layup while there was some confusion on the Bulls' side!
But the man is jumping up, and the ball is already halfway through.
The Bulls' offensive and defensive conversion speed is still okay. Butler directly used his confrontation ability to pass Li Feng here.
But when he was jumping, he was still interfered with by Ingram!
Ingram got the rebound and passed the ball straight to Li Feng.
Butler directly "bounced" the past to defend Li Feng. But people haven't come close yet. The basketball has been thrown.
Li Feng: "Come on!" ”
Ingram, who received Li Feng's return pass again, immediately passed halftime, and Zubac didn't take long to get his pass.
There's nothing to hesitate about at this time.
Zubac hit Gibson with a 2-point shot with his back alone!
35:32! At this time, the Bulls only have 3 points more than the Lakers!
Fred also walked back and forth on the sidelines worriedly. Today's game, from the beginning to the present, let him not see the result......
Playing against the Lakers, now that Kobe Bryant is back, it's best to have a 10-point difference.
This basically wins. What I am most afraid of is the current state, and the score of the opponent is stalemate.
You said that at the end, Kobe Bryant played, so is there any chance that they will win?
It seems that the game is going in the direction of the showdown between Wade and Kobe!
It's completely different from the competition in college. In their respective colleges, Zubac and Ingram are the kind of players who are not bad.
But in the NBA, the intensity of the game has increased dramatically.
Zubac felt like it was actually uncomfortable in the preseason......
The two of them came here, and now they don't have much to think about.
Let's fight. Zubac doesn't have many scoring skills. And now he is facing other players in the league, and his defensive ability is not outstanding......
At this time, Russell, who is a second-year student in the league, is still in a state of confusion.
Rondo deliberately lowered the tempo of the game, and in the end, Mirotic shook off the young Ingram and turned to score three points!
Almost most of the fans at the scene now focused their attention on Li Feng!
The camera was focused on Kobe, and at this time he was also engrossed in looking at Li Feng. So is Wharton.
Butler: "Kidd when he was with the Bucks, Curry and Thompson when he was with the Warriors. What are you capable of? Well?
You seem to me to be a vase. Do you dare not let me foul? ”
Li Feng: "Look at the referee"
Butler: "......"
The moment he turned around, Li Feng immediately jumped to the side of the statue and jumped a big step, and then got up and hit a three-point shot!
The fans at the scene immediately exclaimed, and then the sound of cheering for Li Feng was mixed with some laughter~
Embarrassment from Butler +677!
Li Feng: "I like the way you look at me now. Is there a trick? Brother? ”
Wharton was walking slowly on the sidelines, trying not to laugh.
And Kobe Bryant was already laughing happily at the bench at this time.
Lowe: "This Butler was a little too hard today. Do you think it? ”
Bryant: "I have a feeling he's likely to leave the court with six fouls. Butler today is no threat. He's not in good shape. ”
Wharton overheard Bryant talking, turned to look at the bench, and then continued to watch the game.
Li Feng's three points just now stunned the players on the Bulls team.
It stands to reason that Butler's defense of Li Feng should not be a problem?
Fred: "Don't be careless! Defend me against this guy Li Feng! ”
At this point, Ingram and Zubac glanced at each other. This big brother Li Feng can also score points on the field.
Rondo came up front with the ball alone, watched Butler, and eventually chose to pass the ball to Mirotic.
This time, Mirotic swiped out a three-pointer. Zubac got a rebound.
Looking at the current state of the Bulls, Zubac had the illusion that the regular season was just like this.
Ingram carried the ball to the front court, and he carefully stared at Butler not far away.
Brother Li is still very courageous, and his strength should not be weak.
If he is replaced, a player like Butler is estimated to be ingram in front of Butler for less than 5 seconds, and the basketball in his hand will be cut off by the opponent.
Last season, Wharton thought that Li Feng's strength was a pity to be a substitute for the Warriors.
And this season, Lakers management has also expressed his stance with him.
And he also believes that Li Feng has no problem at all to become the main scoring guard of the Lakers.
The Lakers' lineup will basically take shape after a while.
But Kobe Bryant and Li Feng have directly become Wharton's preferred members.
