On March 31, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles to begin training in preparation for the playoffs.

Bryant returned to the team, and after a check-up by the team doctor, his ankle recovered well.

He began to participate in the team's training and missed two weeks, leaving Bryant hungry for the game and the victory.

On this day, there was a real combat match in the team, and the two sides teamed up and fought very fiercely.

Kobe Bryant took the initiative to ask Li Liang to come and play with him, and the two were one-on-one on the court.

During the away trip, Kobe Bryant was very unhappy with Li Liang's signature horn jumper.

This person is so cautious, they are all well-known basketball superstars, and they are still competing with Li Liang for this kind of thing.

Li Liang is very angry, and he has forgiven Kobe Bryant for this kind of thing.

But the two fought very fiercely in the team's training match.

From beginning to end, Li Liang defended Kobe Bryant one-on-one, as for the effect...... Of course, you can't prevent it!

Bryant, who had a two-week break, was energetic and aggressive.

He kept punishing Li Liang with jump shots in the middle distance, and all kinds of feints and steps were dazzling.

Li Liang has done his best to defend, his footwork, lateral movement, and physical confrontation are all good.

But one-on-one you want to guard against Kobe, that's really a joke.

Kobe Bryant played later and began to show off the dribble in front of Li Liang.

After dribbling under the crotch continuously, turning around, stepping up and down, shaking off Li Liang, a forward shot, hit again.

"No more fighting!"

Li Liang was angry and directly threw the ball and stopped playing.

This Kobe Bryant bullied people, staring at him from beginning to end and beating him alone.

And Howard, Meeks and others, who were on the same team as Li Liang, did not come to help.

Every time Kobe Bryant singled, they hid far away, and they looked like they were deliberately pulling away.

Mike Brown doesn't care, what about this actual combat confrontation, and in the end it becomes a player heads-up, how do you become a coach?

Targeted, exactly targeted.

Seeing Li Liang's angry appearance, he laughed at the fire.

Of course, Kobe Bryant also has to come back at a price for doing this, and after the evening training is over, Li Liang pulls Kobe Bryant and wants to stay and fight him alone.

Of course Kobe Bryant agreed, this kid hasn't been abused enough?

But while fighting, Li Liang asked Kobe, how should Maddie defend?

Kobe Bryant wondered, how did Maddie prevent me from doing anything?

Since the major injury, Maddy has long since faded into the ranks of first-line stars and now plays as a substitute for the Spurs.

Li Liangdao: "I think in terms of offensive ability, Maddie should be better than you." Because Maddie is more talented than you, he doesn't need any difficult moves to get the ball into the basket. It's not like you, the boss, who squirmed around and died of hard work. ”

Kobe doesn't like to hear this, what does it mean to twist around? It's called good technology!

But listening to Li Liang say this, Kobe Bryant also said: "Tracy is really difficult to defend, I have played for so many years, he should be the most difficult outside line I have ever encountered." ”

Li Liang thought to himself, as far as you are now directing the defense of traffic, there is no outside line that is not difficult to defend.

Then, for the technical problem raised by Li Liang, Kobe Bryant gave some of his answers.

The two had some drills, but after practicing for a long time, Li Liang felt that what Kobe Bryant said was nonsense.

It's better to do it, Kobe Bryant said: "Instead of drilling, why don't I imitate Maddie's style of playing, and you can give it a try." ”

Saying this, Li Liang thinks it's good.

Maddie has a distinctly personal style of play, he's open-minded, talented, and technically top-notch but not as elaborate and nuanced as Kobe.

The two fought for a while, and Li Liang said: "You are not like Maddie, you are not chic at all, and you drag mud and water." ”

Kobe Bryant was laughed at by Li Liang, Lao Tzu doesn't play chic? Lumping mud and water?

Forget it, whatever you say is what you say.

The two practiced one-on-one until late, and when Li Liang returned home, Zhu Shu was asleep.

After eating the supper that Zhu Shu left on the table, I went upstairs and saw that the light in Bai Xiaoting's room was still on.

During this time, Li Liang went out to play away, and heard that Bai Xiaoting's personal fashion show was doing very well, which caused a small sensation in Los Angeles.

Walking to the door of Bai Xiaoting's room, Bai Xiaoting happened to come out and collided with Li Liang.

"What are you doing? Voyeurism? Bai Xiaoting saw that Li Liang was "sneaky" and said angrily.

"I... What do you have for me to peep into? Li Liang replied.

Bai Xiaoting glared at him and went to the toilet.

Bai Xiaoting came out and found Li Liang still standing in the corridor, "Why are you doing, it's so late." ”

Li Liangdao: "Let me ask you a question, do you like Kobe Bryant a little more, or do you like Maddie a little more?" ”

Bai Xiaoting said: "Of course it's Kobe, I said I'm Komi, why did I say I'm Komi?" ”

Li Liangdao: "Then why do you like Kobe Bryant instead of Maddie?" Don't talk about looks, if you want to talk about looks, you might as well like me. ”

Bai Xiaoting sneered, her laughter was full of disdain, and said, "Who wants to like you...... I like Kobe Bryant because he plays better, isn't it easy? I don't like you because you don't play well. ”

Li conscience said that one day Lao Tzu will be more powerful than Kobe.

"Then what do you think Maddie is not good, or not as good as Kobe."

Li Liang asked Bai Xiaoting because he felt that some questions might be more clear to the layman.

The so-called bystanders are clear.

Bai Xiaoting really doesn't know enough about basketball, but because it's not enough, she relies more on intuition.

Basketball is a thing that is intuitively reflected and often more accurate than rational analysis and data.

That's why when there is a conflict between data and intuitive impressions, it's common to test the reliability and validity of the data.

Bai Xiaoting thought for a while and said, "I don't think Maddie's shooting is as accurate as Kobe, I feel, anyway, I don't know the specifics." “

"Shooting inaccurately?"

Li Liangke disagrees with this, in the system task, he was almost shot to death by Maddie's dry pull-out shot.

If you can't say for sure, it was also affected by injuries later, and the waist couldn't exert force, so it became iron.

But Bai Xiaoting's statement still gave Li Liang a little inspiration.

The next day, Li Liang asked Wei Dazhi to find the video of the seven games of the Magic and Pistons in 2003 and carefully studied it.

Maddie did play very well in the first two games, but in the last few games, the Pistons' youngster Prince defended Maddy quite well.

Especially in the tie-breaker, he defended Maddie to 7-of-24 and only scored 21 points.

Of course, there is the credit of the Pistons' defense as a team, as well as the change in Maddy's mentality.

But Prince's defense definitely contributed to it.

Li Liang carefully observed Prince's defense and found two important points.

One is to make good use of the "handcheck" rule.

Handcheck hasn't been canceled in 03, so Li Liang is not used to fighting in the previous two missions.

He should make good use of it.

When defending Maddie, Prince always puts one hand on Maddie's waist to sense Maddie's actions.

From the beginning to the end of the game, Maddie did not receive the ball comfortably.

The second is to let Maddie use more jumpers to finish the offense.

When defending Maddy's breakaway, Prince's strategy is to always go the extra mile.

This has something to do with Prince's physical condition, his height and reach are particularly outstanding.

So even if he took a step inside and Maddie chose to make a jumper, Prince could still chase it back and use his long arm to interfere with Maddy's shot.

This led to Maddie's continuous shooting, coupled with the collapse of his mentality, which naturally played very poorly.

With Prince's excellent individual defense and Carlisle's targeted set-up, Maddie naturally couldn't play like before.

I accumulated this experience through the video, and then watched the first game a few more times, and took out every attack of Maddie and analyzed it in detail.

Li Liang thought that before the playoffs began, he must beat this task.
