Li Liang never dared to let Zhu Shu wash these socks, so he had to take them out and wash them separately.

The smell doesn't matter how long you've been wearing it or how much you've sweated, it just stinks.

After washing, it will be good for a while, and when you wear it a little, it will stink.

And Li Liang found that the more intense he ran when he wore these socks, the more smelly he would be after taking them off.

Li Liang estimated that this smell was the risk of his own injury?

Black technology, I can't tell, anyway, this is a treasure, no matter how smelly it is, it has to be kept.

There are also shoelaces given by Coach Wooden, and ugly knee pads drawn from the lottery, all of which are treasures.

Li Liang picked them up and put them in a duffel bag, and carefully put them away at the end of each game, and no one let him move.

If you don't pay attention to it, you lose it, if you break it, you can't get it anymore.

Only consumables can be redeemed in the Exchange Center, but no special items.

After playing the Trail Blazers, the 2012 Lakers game was all over.

In the blink of an eye, we are about to enter 2013, and in 12 years many people say that the earth is going to perish, and it will not be destroyed by the end.

Of course, perhaps in another time and space, the earth has perished, and in the staggered time and space, the earth still exists.

The Lakers had a mixed year, with playoffs slumps, summer trades, preseason losing streaks, and topping the league in the regular season.

As the year draws to a close, the new year is full of hope for them.

Li Liang was given three days of rest, and he was ready to spend this time to complete the task of [Basic Defense on the Inside].

The task dragged on for more than a week, but finally there was time to do it.

[Mission, Containment of Duncan's debut, Time: October 31, 1997, Location: McNichols Arena, Denver, USA, Match: San Antonio Spurs VS Denver Nuggets, Task Requirements: Defeat Tim Duncan, keep his score under 10 points, help the Nuggets win, Task Reward: Interior Basic Defensive Ability +10, All Minor Items +5, One Special Item, Task Difficulty: Normal]

Li Liang saw that I was in a groove, this is not right, his basic defensive ability value on the inside line is only 35 points, and the difficulty should be a rookie, why did he suddenly jump to the ordinary level?

Is there another bug in the system?

But when it comes to the task and thinks about the requirements of the task, it's really not rookie-level.

Maybe it has something to do with Duncan's strength, from the moment he entered the NBA as a rookie, he was a superstar in the league.

Since entering the league in the 1997-1998 season, it has maintained a stable data of 20+10 for 8 years.

He won the championship and FMVP in the second year, the regular season MVP in the fifth year, and the double MVP in the sixth year.

Aside from injuries and the Lakers, no one in the league at the time could stop the often underrated monster.

So, if you think about it, you can understand why this mission is normal.

Unlike Nowitzki, Durant, Garnett, and James, who are still immature when they first enter the league, this is a superstar.

Thinking about it this way, the difficulty star level is not too much, because the task also requires to help the Nuggets win!

However, the more difficult it is, the greater the rewards, and this task should be worth doing.

Li Liang was ready to go, and he had already arrived at the venue of the game, McNichols Arena in Denver.

He wore the Nuggets' red and white jersey, and his high post mentor, Dan Isher, was the general manager of the Nuggets.

But his team-building skills are nowhere near as clever as his passing in the high post.

This year's Nuggets are a downright bad team, the outrageous kind that sucks.

In the 1998 season, their final record was 11 wins and 71 losses, which is not awesome if it is reversed, and it is also awesome if it is coming over.

I played 11 games in a season, and my grandmother was the general manager, so the results were not necessarily worse than this.

Li Liang understood why this task was transferred to the ordinary level.

It's okay to contain Duncan to below 10 points, but to win with this Nugget is really a man on top of a man.

Li Liang wiped his sweat, the last big boss of the Four Heavenly Kings is indeed not easy to fight.

Chris Webb was great, but his teammates for that mission were Olajuwon and Thorpe.

Kevin Garnett's task is demanding, but Garnett is young and the team is weak.

Nowitzki's task is decent, and it can be completed with more effort.

This Duncan's task is to be a god opponent, a pig teammate, how to play this.

As soon as I thought about it, the players from both sides came to the field and the game was about to start.

Li Liang glanced at Duncan, who in 1998 looked a full lap bigger than he did in the 12-13 season.

The shoulders are strong and round, the shoulders are wide and the body is broad, and the whole body feels full of strength.

Duncan was 21 years old this year, proficient in all basic techniques, his knee was not seriously injured, and his physical strength was full.

If you want to say that it is insufficient, that is, the NBA experience is not enough, this may be where Li Liang can take advantage of it.

But next to Duncan, there stood a taller, darker and stronger - Admiral, David Robinson.

After an injury for a season, Robinson returned and formed the twin towers with Duncan.

Li Liang swallowed his saliva, and the twin towers ...... Lao Tzu is a small forward, why do you want to do this kind of task?

……

On the 29th and 30th, Li Liang was trapped in this task.

I fought several battles, but the mission was never completed.

Nima, I can't beat it!

Either they can't stop Duncan from scoring under 10 points, or the Nuggets lose to the Spurs, or both.

In terms of personal strength, it is too difficult for Li Liang to guard against rookie Duncan.

The top power forward, who averaged 21 points per game this season, is stronger than him in height, arm span, strength, and technique, what defense does he have?

Don't look at Duncan as a rookie, he didn't have stage fright at all when he made his debut.

If there's an Olajuwon, Ben Wallace, or something standing inside, I can help.

Who is the inside line who can partner with Li Liang? Dean Garrett, do you know? I don't even know each other.

He was drafted by the Suns in the second round in 1988 but did not sign with the Suns, and then spent almost 10 years overseas and in the lower leagues before being signed by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

You see, it's still a Timberwolves. Timberwolves, basic scrap.

After that, he came to the Nuggets, and he still had a little bit of strength and experience, but he was too far behind Duncan.

In a few mission matches, not to mention the offensive end, it was either 1 in 8 or 0 in 7, and I also received several caps.

The defensive end can't keep up, the blocks can't be covered, and the backcourt rebounds can't be protected.

Especially the poor backcourt rebounding protection made Li Liang very crazy.

He defended Duncan one-on-one, and it was easy to defend one, and the rebound was lost.

The ball was passed to Duncan, and with a lift of his long arms, the ball went in.

In this game, the Nuggets lost in rebounds, and the second lost in the interior offense was too poor.

is less than 45% of the shooting rate, the opposite Spurs are 55% up, a difference of 10 percentage points, how to play?

Except for one game, Li Liang relied on a three-point shot to turn the tide and win.

But Duncan followed the inside line and chiseled the low post wildly, scoring 20 points in his debut, but still failed.

Failed several times in a row, and Li Liang also tried all kinds of bad moves, but the stone Buddha did not move, and trash talk was useless.

Hit him? You probably won't be able to beat him.

Li Liang thought that he should think of another way, whether he wanted to use other tasks to improve himself, and then do this task.

On the evening of the 31st, Chinese New Year's Eve, Bryant invited the whole team to his home for dinner to welcome the arrival of the New Year.

Li Liang went to Kobe's house for the first time, and Kobe invited Li Liang to dinner several times before, but Li Liang ruthlessly refused.

This time, no matter what, he couldn't refute the boss's face, so he drove his Chevrolet.

Dinner was a great pleasure, and Bryant was in high spirits.

Because so far, in the year-end summary of the new season, he has temporarily ranked first in the regular season MVP.

This is the closest Kobe Bryant has come to MVP since '09.

In '09, the Lakers won 65 games, but because James' record and personal data were too dazzling, Kobe Bryant was relegated to second place.

This season, James' Heat still has a good opening record, but it is still slightly worse than the Lakers.

It wasn't until they won the Orlando Magic in overtime on the 31st that they overtook the Knicks in terms of record and jumped to first place in the East.

James' performance was as strong, well-rounded and consistent as ever.

But Bryant's old blossoming is even more impressive, and he has now scored 30 points in 11 consecutive games, and his offensive form is amazing.

The Lakers will stay at Bryant's home until the wee hours of the morning, past 12 o'clock, and it's 2013.

Cheers to everyone and celebrate the arrival of the new year.

Kobe Bryant bluntly said that in the new year, they have only one goal, that is, to win the championship!

Howard, Nash and others all nodded, if it wasn't for the championship, why would they come to the Lakers.

When parting, Li Liang pulled Kobe aside and asked him, "How should Duncan deal with the previous ones." ”

Kobe Bryant glanced at Li Liang with puzzled eyes, what is this kid thinking about every day?

What is the former Duncan called?

Li Liang said that it was at his peak, the kind in his early twenties.

Kobe Bryant said: "How to deal with it, just score more goals." Use your shots. ”

When Li Liang heard this, he asked about the blind, and asked in vain.

Kobe Bryant asked Li Liang to ask Gasol, and Gasol and Duncan played a lot, and they were in the same position, so they had a lot of experience.

So, Li Liang went to consult Gasol again.

Gasol shrugged his shoulders and said, "Try to make sure you don't lose your position, do your best, count on him to have a bad hand, and see if you're lucky." Oh, don't make Duncan turn around and face the basket, his face basket is more powerful than the back basket, and ...... Why do you ask this? Playing games? ”

Li Liang snorted and said that he was just curious.

Gasol also told Li Liang that it would definitely not work to defend Duncan alone, and he needed to cooperate with his teammates.

The Pistons' double Wallace did a good job back then, and Marlon Gao'Neal, a single top and a co-defense, in order to contain Duncan to the greatest extent.

Li Liang knew that Gasol was right, but in the 1997 Denver-Nuggets, where to find help?

Even if he does, he's not a coach, so he can only rely on himself.

With the troubles brought by the obsessive-compulsive disorder caused by the unfinished task, Li Liang entered 2013.
