Chapter 246: 246, vs. DeRozan
After DeRozan, who scored the goal, got off the basket, he looked at Cheng Lei proudly, with a touch of contempt in the corners of his eyes, he wanted to prevent me, you are still very tender.
Cheng Lei pursed his lips and was not angry, he had encountered this situation a lot before, besides, it was the first person in the strongman alliance, LeBron, wouldn't this situation also occur, if you want to hit your self-confidence like this, it would be too much to underestimate yourself.
As a master of trash talk, at this time, I feel sorry for myself if I don't reply to him for something.
"Is that all you have to do?" Cheng Lei looked at DeRozan with a smile.
It's just that this smile looks a little weird, which makes DeRozan feel furious, what does this guy want to do?
"Ah, I don't know who was detained just now, wow, is that ball cool?" DeRozan asked rhetorically.
"Oh, I'm very cool, are you happy!"
Cheng Lei was so thick-skinned that DeRozan choked for a while, and he really didn't know what to say.
"Don't look at me like that, you'll be cooler later!" Cheng Leipi said with a smile.
The audience in the stands spotted the two bickering on the court at a glance, how can it be dropped, is the Raptors trying to rebel? This is our home court for the Rockets, and they really don't exist for us.
"Shhhh Trash bro,! I don't know who started it, and the whole stadium was filled with boos again.
Moreover, he said the name of the garbage brother very rhythmically, which made DeRozan's face a little ugly, as for Lowry, he was also helpless, who let this be in someone's home field.
"Ray, are you alright?" Harden saw the two people who were still chattering, walked over, patted Cheng Lei on the shoulder and asked.
"Small!" Cheng Lei calmly followed Harden and ran over to prepare to attack.
"Isn't it just a button, I'll help you shoot him in the face later!" Harden patted his chest and said.
Damn, for the brother who bullied him, DeRozan is so bold that he will fly if he doesn't teach a lesson.
The Rockets were all on offense, and Paul began to prepare for the offense after seeing everyone get into various predetermined positions.
After Harden pressed DeRozan to take a step inside, he ran quickly, and Paul passed the ball directly.
According to the tactics arranged, Tucker would come up to help Harden make a pick-and-roll, and at that time, after Harden got the ball, he shook his hand directly at Tucker and signaled him not to come up.
Harden is ready to single DeRozan, since Harden doesn't want to block and dismantle, Tucker directly reversed the direction and ran towards Cheng Lei.
"Let's go!" After Tucker stood in his position, he shouted at Cheng Lei.
Cheng Lei's kung fu to slip the bottom line, Harden is ready to start attacking.
First, the body shook rhythmically, and suddenly, he accelerated the speed of the dribble, took a step into the three-point line, and after a few dazzling crotch dribbles, Harden took a small side step directly, re-exited the three-point line, shook his shoulders, and raised his center of gravity slightly, looking like he was about to shoot.
DeRozan knows that Harden is very good at back, and of course it is impossible to let Harden shoot such a three-pointer.
When he stepped closer to the defense, Harden was happy that his opportunity had come.
The whole person changed his position abruptly, leaned towards DeRozan, and jumped up after sticking to DeRozan.
"Doot toot..."
The familiar whistle sounded, and DeRozan was fouled defensively.
Harden directly drew a foul on DeRozan and made three free throws.
DeRozan is now eager to slap himself, and the whole league knows that Harden is a master of making fouls, and he can't get too close to defend him, and he still makes this kind of low-level mistake.
"I heard you look down on my brother? Do you have the capital to look down on? ”
"Coming out for the newcomer?"
"Humph!" With that, Harden walked to the free throw line with great momentum.
Free throws are not a problem at all for Harden, who averages the most free throws per game, and easily hit all three free throws.
"Brother Deng, can I discuss something with you?" When Cheng Lei retreated, he came up and said.
"Huh?"
"I'll help you block and dismantle later, create a dislocation, and let me single DeRozan!" Cheng Lei said seriously.
"Singles DeRozan?" Harden paused and said, "Okay, let him see what you're really capable of!" ”
For now, we still have to guard against the Raptors' offense first.
Cheng Lei stared at DeRozan, at this time, DeRozan and Lowry made a call to run, and at the moment of crossing, Lowry directly handed the ball to DeRozan.
After DeRozan received the ball, he cut inside, wanting to rely on his body to force Cheng Lei, Cheng Lei was fully prepared this time and always maintained a good defensive position, DeRozan made a disguised back sideways dribble, used his body as a cover, and broke through to the right side.
How could Cheng Lei let him break through from the right, seeing the timing, the whole person posted it, and Cheng Lei took the initiative to make physical contact with DeRozan, which made DeRozan very uncomfortable.
originally thought that Cheng Lei's physical fitness would be vulnerable, but he still underestimated Cheng Lei, in the confrontation, Cheng Lei did not fall behind, on the contrary, every time he collided, DeRozan's dribbling would be sluggish.
As long as DeRozan is not given a chance to rush up, then he will have absolutely no chance to bump into Cheng Lei, which is also the experience that Cheng Lei learned when he fought against LeBron.
There is no good space for acceleration from the start, unless the power is absolutely crushing, otherwise, if you want to attack, you are thinking too much.
DeRozan saw that there was no way to forcibly open a gap, so he could only press the ball hard with his right hand, and the whole person quickly turned around and changed in reverse.
If it were Harden, he would have used the back step a long time ago, but, obviously, DeRozan didn't like to use the back step.
After the ball was changed to the left hand, DeRozan forced a jump, opened up a little distance, and wanted to shoot.
Cheng Lei had already seen the opportunity and sealed it.
The tight defense caused DeRozan to shoot a little wide, and the ball bounced out.
"Rebound!"
Capela learned wisely this time, knowing that if he had been in the basket position, Valanciunas would have tried his best to keep himself out, and as long as Ibaka was inside, he would definitely grab the rebound.
Therefore, he prepared a rush this time, and he didn't entangle Valanciunas beforehand.
Having spotted the ball, Capela rushed out from the side.
snatched the ball from the hands of the two opponents.
Seeing that the rebound was not won, the Raptors quickly retreated, just not giving the Rockets a chance to break fast.
Paul dribbled past half court, and Cheng Lei and Harden made a look.
Harden took the initiative to run up to help Cheng Lei do the blocking, and after blocking Caberclo, Cheng Lei quickly ran towards the three-point line, and Caberclo definitely couldn't keep up, so he could only choose to change the defense.
Cheng Lei's goal has been achieved, that is, to let DeRozan defend himself.
Harden naturally walked towards the bottom corner, obviously telling the opponent that he would not take the ball to break through for the time being, and DeRozan also put all the defensive focus on Cheng Lei, who held the ball.
