Chapter 179: Grabbing a rebound

The men who went on the pitch on both sides were Lopes and Monroe.

Monroe entered the NBA with the seventh pick in '10, and he was drafted by the Pistons, the team he's been with the longest time since he entered the league.

As early as high school, Monroe was regarded as the best interior seedling in the United States, especially his rare passing skills, which showed the potential of an all-round center.

The Pistons selected him that year because they also valued his potential.

It's a pity that this guy's ability to realize his potential is too poor, and after Zhuang Shen was born, he was abandoned by the Pistons.

After that, he went to the Bucks, and Bucks coach Kidd claimed to be the current coach who was the best at adjusting players, and once wanted to train him to be the core of the interior, but after only two years, he was abandoned again.

As of this year, Monroe is in his eighth year with the Suns, and now he has the ability to start a team, but that's about it.

The dreams that I once looked forward to can be regarded as stopping at this moment.

As a result, he can finally play without burden.

As the referee's whistle blew, the ball was thrown, Monroe and Lopes jumped at the same time, and finally Monroe, who reacted faster, touched the ball and threw it to Booker, who got the ball to Ullis.

The latter was selected with the overall 34th pick in the second round in '16, and most of the players in this position are not very talented except for the pearl in the sea.

Ullis is no exception, but fortunately, this guy is diligent enough, and it happens to be in the Suns, who have been rotten, and he has the opportunity to play, and he also took the opportunity to seize the opportunity and win the trust of the head coach.

Ullis is a traditional point guard and has a very good ability to break through after blocking and picking, but his finishing ability is too anxious, so he has not been able to form a good containment.

However, his current partner is Devin Booker, who needs a lot of shots on the offensive end, and Ullis, who focuses on breaking passes, has naturally become his best backcourt partner.

On the first kick, they played their own characteristic combination.

Ullis broke through directly, and when he was resisted by Li Ming, he was not overly entangled, and a long pass was made to Booker outside the three-point line, who took the ball and adjusted it slightly, and raised his hand directly.

The arc is very good, but unfortunately the landing point is slightly off, and it bounces off the basket!

Monroe jumped high, and Lopez was not to be outdone, both of them were running for the ball, and naturally they collided together, but at this moment, an accident happened, Monroe's knee hit the side of Lopez's knee, and with a "bang", the latter fell to the ground, holding his leg and showing pain.

Li Ming and the others looked at this sudden accident and hurriedly surrounded him, Holiday wanted to reach out and pull the latter up, but Lopez didn't reach out, still hugged his knees.

"This is serious!" Looking at López's appearance, Li Ming chuckled in his heart, he knew that the latter was probably not just in pain for a while, it was very likely that he was injured.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to!" Monroe also hurriedly walked over and explained out loud that he, as a big man, naturally understood what knees meant to them, so his face was also very uncomfortable.

The Bulls' team doctor soon came up and carried Lopez to the locker room, and the audience watched as Lopez was transported away and cheered in unison.

"Hope you're okay!"

"López, come back early, Li Ming needs your block!"

"Come on, it's going to be fine, you'll definitely be back in the second half!"

The constant cheering voices only faded after Lopes finally disappeared and the stadium returned to normal.

Because the ball was in Monroe's hands at the time, it was still the Suns' possession, and Monroe sent the sideline ball to Ullis, who still broke out to Booker.

This time, Booker didn't choose a three-pointer, but a long two-pointer, a scorer with a very good hand and a very standard shooting posture, so this shot shot accurately into the basket.

2-0, the Suns lead.

Li Ming slowly dribbled past the frontcourt, and it was Kanin who came up instead of López, who made a block for Li Ming, the quality was good, and Li Ming directly bypassed Ulys.

Booker quickly made up for it, and Li Ming was blocked and passed the ball directly to Kanin, who scored the ball in three slow steps.

The score is equalised.

The Suns attack again, small forward TJ Warren's offense, this is a typical non-trivial player, but the performance on the offensive end is acceptable, can attack and shoot, although the range is a little embarrassing, but it is really good to use, although this goal did not score, but he grabbed the offensive rebound and made up for the ball.

Lopez's shortcomings began to emerge after he went off the court, and Kanin and Mirotic couldn't protect their backcourt boards well, which also allowed the Suns to play a second offense on several occasions.

"Protect your rebounds and stay focused!" Naturally, Hojberg was not satisfied with this phenomenon and kept shouting from the bench.

Li Ming attacked with the ball, or sent it to the inside, and this time Mirotic also scored a goal to equalize the score again.

Once again, it was the Suns' turn, and it seemed that they had determined that their home interior would definitely be able to grab the rebound, and this time Booker shot haphazardly.

The ball hit the basket, "popped", and bounced out, Suns power forward Chris resisted Mirotic, and Monroe used his power to eat Kanin.

Seeing that this rebound was about to be taken by the Suns again, a pair of yellow-skinned hands suddenly appeared in front of Monroe, it was Li Ming's hand, because of the appearance of the former, the ball that his hand had already touched was directly shot out.

"Damn!" Monroe landed and was about to jump again, but he found something that surprised him, because Li Ming actually jumped up again.

"Ho!" Fortunately, TJ Warren also jumped up.

"Phew!" The muscles of the two collided together, but unfortunately the ball was still not reached by anyone.

Li Ming landed again, and Monroe thought he had caught a good opportunity, because his charging was over and he could jump again, while the former had just fallen and needed time to recharge and jump.

"I'm sorry, I'll take this rebound。。。。。 What the heck?! Monroe burst into foul mouth, because he saw the figure of Li Ming in front of him jumping towards the ball that fell from mid-air at a faster speed than him.

This girl is jumping again!

Others jumped once, he jumped three times, and more importantly, he could still jump that high.

"Smack!" It was the sound of his hand slapping on the ball, Li Ming jumped three times in a row, and finally protected the rebound.

"Whew! It's not easy! ”
