The last time Li Liang came to Memphis was during a graduation trip.

At that time, in order to complete the system task, Li Liang and the Grizzlies' teacher Tony carefully observed and learned defense.

The effect is still okay, and Mr. Tony's image in Li Liang's heart is also taller.

And soon, this time Li Liang will have a big battle with Mr. Tony.

It took a lot of time to fly from California to Tennessee, and the whole team immediately went to the hotel to rest.

After tomorrow's fight, the day after tomorrow will fly to Dallas and play back-to-back with the Mavericks.

Less than a month after the start of the new season, Li Liang has experienced the hardships of being an NBA player and understands why the player's state fluctuates.

The high-intensity games one after another, the rush on the road, injuries, the pressure of record, the pressure of survival, always test the players and coaches.

Like Kobe, Gasol, and Nash, they have all been in the league for more than ten years and have long been accustomed to this kind of life.

Newcomers like Li Liang belong to the team's key focus objects, and many rookies have just entered the league, which is equivalent to newcomers in the workplace, and there will be more or less uncomfortable situations.

In particular, some low-ranking players, with low salaries, short contract periods, or even no guaranteed contracts, may be eliminated by the league at any time, and the pressure to survive is huge.

Many people will have a nervous breakdown, call agents, coaches, parents, and cry like a child on the phone.

Therefore, the league has a special psychological counseling course and financial management course for rookies, and the players' union hires psychological counselors to solve psychological problems for rookies.

As a rookie, Li Liang is naturally also in the care of the trade union.

The counselor asked him if he had any psychological problems, such as stress, lack of sleep, anxiety, etc.

Then, after a series of questionnaires, it was concluded that "I am very mentally healthy, overly optimistic about life, and lack realistic beatings." ”

This is inevitable, Lao Tzu is the second generation of rich, the son of the system, if the psychology is no longer healthy, then the people in the world will not be healthy.

All the troubles in life boil down to two kinds, one is the lack of money, and the other is the lack of self-worth.

Among them, there is no money.

Li Liang is a rich second generation with an annual salary of one million, and he is not short of money.

With the system, love basketball, self-worth can be realized, and it is even more beautiful.

If he has any psychological problems, it must be an insult to the tenacity and efforts of the working people who work hard day and night to endure humiliation and burden in life.

But even so, the beatings of reality should still come, earlier and later.

On November 23, in Memphis against the Grizzlies, the Lakers were not in good shape.

There are two bad points, one is bad offense, and the other is bad defense.

Generally speaking, this is not good, that is not good.

Especially Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant, who had played very stable and efficient in more than ten games before, exposed his true nature in Memphis this time and played crazy iron.

In fact, at the beginning of the first quarter, Kobe Bryant looked at the basket with warmth, cautiously, turned back three times at a time, and refused to hit it easily.

He played the ball inside as usual, combing the offense with Nash and hoping to open up from the inside.

But the problem is that tonight's opponent is the Grizzlies, and in the last game against the Kings, Howard played Cousins a little bit more.

In the 40 minutes of playing, he scored a total of 4 points, not to mention Warcraft, you can eat five or six points if you throw Su Wei up and eat two cakes.

This one was the Black and White Bears, Gasol Jr., Randolph, starting small forward Guy, guards Tony Allen and Conley.

The Grizzlies are in great form right now, sitting second in the West, behind the Lakers.

And their defense is more ferocious and tough than the Spurs.

Howard and Big Gasol have played more than a dozen games, and as long as the opponent's interior is a little stronger, they will not play well.

If the opponent's inner line is weak, he can stabilize the abuse of vegetables, which has become an artifact of abuse of vegetables.

Kobe Bryant had no choice, instinctively picked up the offensive burden, and his eyes looking at the basket became vicious and unkind.

Brown watched from the sidelines in shock, and hurriedly dispatched his favorite general and lucky general Li Liang to appear.

After Li Liang came on the court, he experienced a Grizzlies' retro 90s defense.

The so-called three highs and one low, high intensity, high confrontation, high oppression, and low rhythm.

This kind of game situation is a big test for the shooter, because it is difficult for you to develop your hands.

Sure enough, Li Liang's rare first three three-point shots all missed.

In the second half, when the Lakers were 9 points behind, Li Liang decisively gave himself a sticker and hit two three-pointers to quench the team's thirst in a difficult situation.

But after all, the time is only three minutes, and on the defensive end, Li Liang can defend against Guy and Conley, but how can he prevent Kobe?

Kobe Bryant is 34 years old, and it is inevitable that he will be on the same page as Tony Allen.

Come on, you're old, so why bother with people's defenses?

Kobe Bryant didn't listen, Li Liang scolded him and didn't listen, he just wanted to vote.

He shot 6-of-23 from the field, 3-of-8 from three-point range, and barely scored 28 points from the free-throw line.

can only say that the familiar Kobe Bryant is back again!

Of course, the game still bit to the last moment, Li Liang successfully steals Randolph, but the ball is taken by Gasol Jr., but he makes an easy layup under the basket.

After all, death entanglement cannot directly lead to the death of the opponent, and the Lakers lost 96:100, with a 4-point disadvantage.

The loss of the game cannot be entirely attributed to Kobe's shot, but it is really because the interior line cannot be opened, which causes the Grizzlies' defensive center of gravity to shift outward, and it is a home game, so you can rest assured that you can boldly go on the confrontation and wrap up.

There are also the Lakers' defensive problems that have not been solved, and the interior line has been beaten into a sieve by the black and white bears.

It stands to reason that the monsters on the Lakers' side are superior to the black bears, and the elder brother beats the younger brother.

As a result, Howard and Gasol Jr. did not score as much as Gasol Jr. alone, and even allowed Randolph to grab 5 frontcourt rebounds.

How do you fight this? I can't fight.

It's been a month since the Lakers last lost.

After the game, back in the dressing room, the atmosphere of the team was okay, with everyone high-fives, hugs and comforted each other.

Li Liang was also in a bad mood, his throat was almost hoarse during the game, and as a result, the inside line was always leaking.

With the presence of black and white bears, attention is easily attracted, and as a result, the Grizzly Bear's forward line is constantly impacted.

While the whole league is shooting three-pointers, the Grizzlies are still the most conservative and cautious three-pointers.

They only made 11 three-pointers tonight, hitting six, the rest from mid-range and under the basket.

Typical grizzly-style victory.

Li Liang, who was depressed, had no choice but to take this opportunity to use his skills and touch the head of the big man in the team in the name of comfort.

This touch was not bad, everyone's mood calmed down, and there was no quarrel because of the problems in the field.

In fact, during the game, there were some arguments between Kobe and Howard.

Howard didn't play well in the last game, taking six shots in the game.

He didn't play well tonight, only taking 7 shots, because as long as he couldn't score in the opening game, Kobe Bryant didn't attack him much after holding the ball.

Only 13 games have been played, and Howard has already scored no more than 10 points and 10 shots in a single game.

Howard came to the Lakers with a high spirit, and if there is no game like this, he must be unhappy.

It doesn't matter if you win all the time, you will inevitably have an explosive mentality when you lose.

Just when the two of them might argue at any time, Li Liang touched his head at the right time, and they calmed down a lot.

Li Liang thought to himself, you can't blame me for losing your hair in the future, I am also for your good.
