Chapter Seventy-Seven: Return

Li Liang had a good performance in the opening game.

He's always able to surprise from the outside.

Defensively, he is smart, cunning and energetic.

And his opponents always underestimate him.

This group of teammates in Kentucky is no exception.

They have all played with Li Liang for at least a year, and they know what level this kid is.

Although he was selected in the draft this time, Li Liang's strength is still in a stereotype.

It's hard for them to believe that the current Li Liang is so accurate in three points, so good at defensive footwork, and so reasonable and smart in playing.

In fact, Li Liang has always been very smart, but he was not capable enough in the past, and his body couldn't keep up with his brain.

After hitting a three-pointer, Li Liang began to put more energy into defense.

His mission is not to win, but to surpass Terrence Jones in scoring and steals.

Li Liang doesn't have many scoring means, and he knows that he can't always have open three-point opportunities.

After all, it's a temporary match, so how can there be so many empty seats for you to run.

Therefore, Li Liang has to focus on the defensive end, and it is best not to let Jones score.

Jones plays power forward at the position, and he plays relatively far outside and has a hand-to-hand range shot.

Attacking in the low post is not his main means of scoring, otherwise Li Liang, who has not practiced interior defense, will suffer.

Jones is very agile in the basket and has a good nose under the basket, and is a good hand at stealing points.

Li Liang must concentrate and not give Jones too many scoring opportunities.

Don't look at Jones, this kid is stunned with Li Liang, his talent is definitely outstanding.

It's a first-round show.

It's best if the Wall team can play offense with Wall and Cousins as the core, and don't give Jones too many shots.

Li Liang unfolded the Dafa of Sticking Defense, followed Jones closely, and almost did not leave an inch.

For several rounds in a row, Jones didn't even touch the ball, and the angry kid said to Li Liang: "Bruce, why are you guarding me so strictly?" ”

Li Liang thought to himself, if it weren't for the righteousness of his friends, Lao Tzu would have knocked you out with a hammer and completed the task directly.

"We're not done yet, uh... If I win today, I'll give you a glimpse of the night in Los Angeles. ”

Li Liang began to seduce Jones again, but Jones didn't want to play billiards this time, he wanted to play basketball well!

No one wants to be the background board of the other party, especially in front of seniors and celebrities.

The score on the court has come to 10:12, and the Wall team leads by two points.

Wall and Cousins deserve to have worked out in the NBA for two years, and their physical confrontation ability has risen across the board.

It was obvious from the moment after the confrontation under the basket that Davis couldn't withstand Wall's impact.

Knight, who used to be Wall's replacement, has a certain gap with Wall, but he is also very powerful.

Lamb, Teague and the two are obviously at a distance of grade, and they can only watch the two on the outside fight.

The two sides played very fast, and the offensive and defensive transitions were frequent, but the hit rate was average.

After all, one of the inside line is squatting Cousins, and the other is guarded by Davis.

At this point, Jones began to take the initiative in the attack, and Wall transferred the ball to Jones.

Jones catches the ball with his back on the left side of the rib.

But where will he play with his back to the singles, and when he gets the ball, he turns to the basket.

So far, Jones hasn't scored, not even shot.

Li Liang, this guy is so hateful, where did he offend you?

Bullfighting, you steal chickens, and the confrontation is against me.

Lao Tzu must score a goal on your head!

Facing Jones one-on-one, Li Liang did not panic at all.

As Jones's sparring partner, Li Liang couldn't be clearer about his tricks.

A fake feint can no longer be fake, and after a tentative step, you can either jump directly and shoot a shot, or dribble to the left side.

Jones' right hand is not very good, and many rookie players are not good enough to use their non-dominant hand.

Training and general intensity are okay, as soon as the intensity is up, take a break.

This requires a lot of practice and game practice after entering the NBA.

Jones took the ball and made two shooting feints in front of Li Liang.

Li Liangli doesn't care about it, do you dare to fake your kid's feints a little more?

As Jones's sparring partner, Li Liang kept telling Jones that you don't want to make feints, it's better to break through directly after taking the ball.

In this way, the effect is a little better when it is not prepared.

Jones still had good ball control and had the skill of turning his back with one hand.

He can hook his hands, has a good shooting touch, and has a very strong finishing ability under the basket.

It's this garbage feint that makes Li Liangdan hurt.

It's a pity that he seems to have started learning this feint since he beat his mother's womb, and he can't change it anyway.

After the feint, Jones chose to dribble and take a sudden step, close to the technique of turning back, and wanted to lean on Li Liang to turn under the basket.

After the two went head-to-head that day, Jones knew that Li Liang was no longer Wuxia Amon, and his defense was very tough.

So he wanted to play some tricks and eat Li Liang raw with his feet and body.

Li Liang was squeezed to take a step back, he raised his arms high, faced Jones who jumped up and down, and did not go to the block.

Because he knows that there is someone behind him!

Anthony Davis came in from the side and gave Jones a big hat in the air!

Jones, the kid, was still too slow to shoot, giving Davis time to react.

But Wall got the ball on the outside, and after controlling the ball, he took a step from the middle and went straight to the basket to make a layup!

Then, Li Liang was already standing in the middle.

He stood on his tiptoes to stand outside the reasonable collision zone.

Then he was knocked straight to the ground by Wall.

"Beep!"

Bryant blew the foul whistle and sentenced Wall to hit the ball with the ball.

Wall shook his head and reached out to pull Li Liang up from the ground.

This ball Li Liangzao fouled beautifully, and he felt like an old fritter.

Bryant pointed at Wall on the sidelines, saying that the ball should be thrown with a stop-and-go instead of continuing to rush to the basket.

At the same time, Kobe Bryant secretly gave Li Liang a thumbs up, and this foul was good.

Li Liang is a Lakers player after all, and Kobe Bryant certainly supports Li Liang in his heart.

The game continued, and as the confrontation slowly deepened, the attacks of the two sides became more and more fluid and the cooperation became better and better.

Jones finally seized an opportunity under the basket, ran back and received a hanging pass from Miller, and hit a layup.

Jones roared angrily after the goal, he was really a little depressed today, and he was very annoyed by Li Liang.

And Li Liang was even more annoying on the offensive end, so he squatted outside the three-point line and didn't move.

If you don't guard against him, this kid is very accurate.

If you guard against him, I'm sorry, he'll waste his time watching you.

Anyway, the Davis team's offensive theme is the two-man rotation of Knight and Davis.

Others get a chance to make a move, and they can play when they can, and they can't pass it to the two to continue playing.

Li Liang occasionally goes up to do blocking and dismantling for Knight, and his blocking and dismantling level is really good.

Then after blocking and dismantling, Li Liang will inevitably cut out, and everything will be cut far away, two steps away from the three-point line.

To follow or not to follow? To help or not to help?

Jones had the same troubles as Noelle.

Li Liang also carried out chat Dafa and talked with Jones about some of the things that he didn't have.

It annoyed Jones, and for the first time on the court, he felt that Li Liang was so annoying.

In an offensive and defensive matchup, Jones broke through the baseline from the left side after a feint, and was surrounded by Li Liang and McGee.

Jones' passing has been not very good, handling the ball in the face of the bag, and he has always used him as a finishing point in Calyparry, Kentucky.

Encountering this kind of encirclement, Jones fell into a dead ball.

Li Liang was quick and took the ball out of bounds from behind.

This goal annoyed Jones, who was defended by Li Liang for most of the half, scoring 4 points on 2-of-8 shooting.

Jones played extremely hard.

He turned around and pushed Li Liang for a while, and scolded two sentences in his mouth.

[Rage +30 from Terrance Jones.] 】

Li Liang knew that he was deliberately targeting Jones today, so he didn't get angry, but said, "Calm down, man, just train." ”

The rest of the team came up to dissuade him, and Jones jumped on the head, quickly realizing that he was wrong.

He stepped forward to shake hands with Li Liang and made peace, but still said: "You are really targeting me today, I don't know where I offended you." ”

Li Liang joked: "It may be that your handsomeness threatens me." ”

After a few jokes, the friends got back together.

However, Li Liang still did not relax and conscientiously completed the defensive task against Jones.

And Jones is completely out of shape, but Wall and Cousins are getting better and better.

The two NBA "old-timers" are playing more and more.

There was no coach to arrange the troops, and the two sides became more and more chaotic.

In the end, in the forty-minute matchup, Wall defeated Davis 89-80, with a 9-point advantage.

Li Liang made 3 of 5 three-pointers and scored 9 points, plus 2 steals.

After Jones lost his form, he lost the mind of the game, scoring five points in the game and no steals.

Jones undoubtedly felt very depressed, Li Liang, who had been his sparring partner in the past, suddenly became brave and resourceful.

On the first day, he won by stealing chickens alone, and on the last day, he suppressed himself again.

But Jones still thinks his strength is above Li Liang.

This kid is just playing tricks.

Li Liang is indeed clever, he is here to complete the task.

The quest was successfully completed, and his achievement title did not change, but the side quest went one step further.

The reward is the so-called [Rune Upgrade Fragment].

The description says that collecting three pieces can make the runes go up one level and get better auxiliary effects.

In short, the six-day Kentucky training camp initiated by Li Liang has finally come to an end.

After the end, Li Liang felt that he had gained a lot, but said that if he let him do it again, he really had to weigh it.

Because really, it's really hard.

But hard work pays off.

At the end of the game, Jerebus got up from his seat.

The legendary owner of the Lakers stretched out his hand to Li Liang, and the two shook hands together and said, "Congratulations, becoming a member of the Lakers family." ”
