Chapter 342: Peers Are Enemies? Intrigue between the substitutes

Listening to Hougist's praise, Harden was also a little fluttering, and patted Hoggist's shoulder generously, "It's easy to say, I didn't expect you to be quite humble this kid, call us at any time if you don't understand something!" ”

Hougist smiled evilly and asked, "James, what I want to ask is, do you put your bearded man outside the quilt or inside the quilt when he sleeps at night?" ”

As soon as this question was asked, Howard burst out laughing, which made Harden very embarrassed, but thinking about it, this question was really tricky, and he couldn't help but laugh along, "Well, you'll find the answer when you grow this kind of beard!" ”

"I'm afraid I'm going to have a hard time finding the answer for the rest of my life, because when I have hair below my sideburns, I feel itchy on my face, and it's a terrible feeling that distracts me during the game, which is why I shave both sides of my hair." Hougist said, pointing to his sideburns.

"A beard will make you look more manly! Don't you like this majestic feeling? Harden asked curiously.

"That's not our team's style, our Lakers' team building culture naturally has a Mamba style, hiding in the dark and staring at you, waiting for you to expose your weaknesses, and then biting hard and quickly hiding, this is our style, so it's okay for my image to be immature." Hoggist laughed harmlessly, but his remarks aroused the alarm of the Mordens, and Hoggist was right, he did seem to be modest and polite, and it was hard to believe that he would kill his opponent every minute on the court.

After Horgist left, the two of them pulled Ariza and began to educate themselves, and Harden said earnestly: "Brother Trevor, you can't take it lightly tonight!" ”

Ariza was puzzled when she saw the expressions of the two, "What are you two going to say?" I've watched the footage of Haugist's fight, and I know he's hard to defend, and Coach Bisketaaf has said it to me many times before the game. ”

Howard restrained his smile and looked serious, "Blowing Buddha, don't look at Hogist so young and immature, it's all pretended, just to make the opponent careless!" ”

"I have no intention of being careless! You can't believe my defensive attitude? I think you should be reminded of Terrence (Jones) and Montrex (Harrell). Hoggist's physical fitness is not covered, if I still stay on the field after the break, then these two brothers will become the team's biggest shortcoming, if Hoggist is a little black mamba, then he must be the first to bite to death this little brother! Ariza pouted and went back to practicing the bottom corner three.

The two of them listened to Ariza's words and thought so, and called Jones and Harrell to emphasize it again, Jones was still a little unconvinced, but Harrell nodded yes. Jones scolded unhappily: "Monte, you are a soft egg, you are very arrogant when you usually train, I didn't expect to be scared like this by Haugist!" ”

Harrell and Hougist are the same rookies, although they missed the NCAA Championship, but the players who participated in that NCAA Tournament, one counts as one, and there is no shame when it comes to Hougist's murderous name. Jones is not afraid of Hougist, he is ignorant and fearless, he is called Harrell and not Hamaskin, and of course he will not treat Hoggist as an ordinary rookie.

And Harrell also vaguely expects Terrence not to take Hoggist in his eyes and be tough with him, if Terrence can be psychologically shadowed by Hougist, and eat a few more basketball dream humiliations, then won't his first bench position be given to him?

Thinking of this, Harrell deliberately pouted: "That's, I'm usually fake Tough, I can't compare with you, but you are the first person on the bench for our Rocket team, how can I compare with you?" I hope you will beat Haugist in the game and set an example for us and other ordinary substitutes! ”

"It's like a human saying, just wait and see me perform!" Terrence tossed the towel to Harrell and returned to the court to continue warming up.

And both Morden and Harrell cursed in their hearts. Morden is also considering whether to reflect to the coach and appropriately reduce the playing time of this brainless tough guy.

The Lakers lineup has changed a lot today, Jeremy Lin was put down on the bench, but the starting point guard is not Hougist, but the reeds, Shashewski let the reeds start the tactical idea is indeed a different way, the Rockets' starting guard Beverley defense is very fierce, aggressive, and can even be said to be a little savage, Jeremy Lin is more disadvantaged because he is an Asian whistle, so he is easy to make mistakes against Beverley, on the other hand, Reed, the figure looks thinner, and it is easy to get the mercy of the referee, Instead, it will restrain Beverley's brutal play.

Kobe Bryant is still a thunderous starting point guard, Haugist is still the starting small forward, and Randle at the No. 4 position was also put on the bench today, with Yi Jianlian and Turner Twin Towers guarding the interior to deal with the Rockets' impactful but no outside threat Capela and the Monsters. And the Rockets are still the same regular starting lineup, Beverley, Harden, Ariza, Capela, Howard five.

The happy beast easily won the jump ball, Harden controlled the ball and came to the front court to face Kobe, and Capela came up to cover. Capela and Howard's aerial relay after covering is an important means of scoring for the duo, so Shashewski made a special arrangement before the game, not to follow the defense, and wait to take over the defense in the middle distance. Yi Jianlian stepped on the paint area and waited for Capela to go down or Harden to break through.

Shashewski's defensive strategy for the outside line is only to stick to the defense, because the Rockets uphold the magic ball theory, and the choice of shot is generally under the basket or outside the three-point line, so it must be strictly guarded outside the three-point line, if the opposing guard breaks through the inside line by covering, it doesn't matter, there are still people on the inside waiting to take over the defense in the middle distance.

Bryant squeezed past Capela, who was covering, and in order to prevent him from suddenly shooting a three-point foul, he pressed his hands behind his back against Harden. Capela went down, and Harden's ball hoisted to the basket. Yi Jianlian reached out and interfered with the ball, but the ball changed direction and angle under Yi Jianlian's interference, and flew into his own basket instead.

Hogist dribbled past half the court, came to the flank and gave it directly to Turner in the low post, Turner felt very difficult to hit Howard with his back, and saw that Reed borrowed Yi Jianlian's no-ball cover to reverse the direction and ran back to the top of the arc, running out of a big vacancy, so he passed the ball directly to the top of the arc, Reed received the ball and shot directly and decisively, throwing a three-point non-stick.

"This Nima...... Continuous mistakes at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends at the beginning of the game, too faceless, right? Do you want revenge? Hogist cursed in his heart.

The Rockets hit the baseline ball to the frontcourt, Ariza moved to the wing from the bottom corner with the cover, Harden quickly got on the ball and threw three points to Ariza, but Hoggist bypassed the cover although he was half a beat slower, but he still used all his strength to reach out to block, but he didn't expect to really catch up, Ariza's three-point shot was fanned out from the side by Haugist, and Beverley at the top of the arc received the ball and gave it to Capela under the empty basket, but this time Capela's layup was slapped down by Yi Jianlian from the front.

Turner picked up the rebound and gave it to Kobe, who gave it to Hoggist, who took a step and made a quick stop in the elbow area to hit the basket.

The Rockets counterattacked quickly, and Beverley quickly penetrated the court against the defense of the reeds, slipped to the baseline to score a layup, and pushed the reeds when he made a layup. After landing on the ground, Reed tried to remove Beverley's hand to receive the serve, but Beverley shook Reed's hand away, his face full of anger, as if he was the one who was being bullied.

Hougist couldn't see it, and made a ball cover for the reeds in the half, and the reeds accelerated straight through the half court with the dribble, and Beverley, who was attached to the reeds, also rushed up in order to keep up with the reeds, but ran straight into Hoggist. Haugist hard bridge hard horse tied up the posture and made full preparations, directly knocked Beverley to the ground, but he did not move, plus Haugist had already left enough space for Beverley, so the referee did not have the slightest intention of blowing fouls, signaling the game to continue.

Lu Wei handed the ball to Yi Jianlian, who responded to the top of the arc, Yi Jianlian took a step and passed to the reed who ran to the flank, and the reed gave Kobe Bryant in the elbow area, Kobe broke through the dribble, Harden chased the defense, Capela should have made up for the defense under the basket, but Kobe Bryant didn't seem to have any intention of shooting, and rushed to the other side of the basket with a short body, and at this time Yi Jianlian was also opening up space to the top of the arc.

To be honest, in the second season of Jeremy Lin's departure, Chinese netizens jokingly called Kevin of the refrigerator because his name is the same as that of a famous white goods brand in China. After McHale was fired, interim coach Bickerstaff was still silent about the assistant defense, and the line between the normal assistant defense and the "help defense drawing" specially invented by netizens for the Black Forest Jeremy was very blurred, and the players were afraid of being criticized by netizens, so everyone was a little hesitant in the help defense, and Capela decided to go back to chase his defender Yi Jianlian after a short ideological struggle.

And Capela turned around and bumped into Harden, who was chasing Kobe, and the two pretended to be full, but they lost their balance and fell and hugged each other. Kobe Bryant looked back and saw such a scene, snickered and scored two points on a rebound. Although the basket lost points, the Rockets players were not entangled, and quickly kicked off the attack, Harden raised his hand on the wing to shoot, Kobe Bryant had not yet rushed back, Hougist hurriedly went up to make up for the defense, but Harden gave the ball to Ariza in the bottom corner of the same side when Hougist pounced, and it was too late for Hougist to brake and turn around.

Fortunately, when Kobe Bryant returned to the defense, he saw that Hougist had filled his hole, and he also rushed directly to Ariza, but it seemed to be a step slower, and Ariza had already jumped up when Kobe arrived, and by the time Kobe arrived, the ball had already flown over his head and into the Nets.

"It's beautiful!" Ariza high-fived Harden on the way back to celebrate, "This Howist still wants to be not as powerful as in the video!" ”

"You've only scored a three-pointer, don't take it lightly!" Reminded on the side.

"I'll observe him again!" Ariza nodded in agreement.

The reeds dribbled to the front court to give Turner, who responded to the elbow area, and went to the wing to make continuous off-ball covers for Kobe Bryant with Hougist, Kobe used the cover of Reed and Hougistt to get rid of Harden from the wing and go around the elbow area, and received Turner's hand-handed pass and made a direct mid-range jumper to cut down two points again.

Ariza picked up the ball from the baseline and sent the ball directly to Harden who was standing in the middle circle, Harden threw it to Capela in the bottom corner, and the defensive attention of the entire Lakers team overwhelmed the bottom line, Capela returned the ball to the top of the arc Harden and then Howard left and right for Harden to carry out high double cover.

However, the Lakers' defensive strategy is implemented very strictly, Yi Jianlian and Turner refused to come out, and always stood near the paint area, Kobe Bryant in order to prevent himself from falling into the trap of Capela and Howard's card position, so he stuck to Harden very hard, Harden didn't throw Kobe Bryant until he went around the wing and broke in, and Yi Jianlian stood on Harden's way to make up for the defense.

Harden knew that Capela must have been let go, and he could break through to the basket under the emptiness of the middle, so he divided the ball to the middle, and tried to bypass Yi Jianlian at his feet, but Yi Jianlian quietly moved a small step diagonally behind when Harden's eyes glanced at the middle, and when Harden passed the ball and took the last step, he just knocked Yi Jianlian to the ground.

The referee decisively blew for Harden's foul, even if Capela received the ball and completed a two-handed dunk. After the transfer of the ball, Harden was still chattering and complaining to the referee, and Bickerstaff also stood in the command zone to reason with the referee, and the referees had a good temper today, and did not bother with the pair of generals.

Dribbling the ball in the middle of the reeds, Horgist borrowed Turner's cover from near the right sideline to move sideways to the left wing to attract the Rockets' defensive attention, while Kobe Bryant ran back from under the basket and also borrowed Turner's cover to the wing, Turner blocked Harden solidly, Kobe Bryant received a pass from the reeds and shot a three-point jumper, but unfortunately he couldn't shoot, the ball swept a circle of baskets and bounced on the rebound, bounced back and a circle of baskets, and then bounced out.

Who could believe that in the chaos, it was Beverley who pulled the rebound outside, and it was Howard who was supposed to grab the board on the inside who received the ball at the top of the arc. The monster casually threw the ball to Harden, Harden dribbled to the frontcourt, suddenly accelerated when he was two steps away from the top of the arc, and distributed the ball diagonally back to Beverley on the wing at the free throw line, Beverley hit a direct jumper against the reed's defense, and hit another three-pointer.

Hougist dribbled to the front court and continued to hand the ball to Kobe, Kobe Bryant made a switch with the reeds in the bottom corner, and now the defense of Kobe Bryant was replaced by Beverley, Kobe Bryant directly turned his back to force Beverley, but Beverley's defense was tough Kobe, Kobe had to overcome the rigidity with softness, turned around and let Beverley come to the basket, and in the face of the Monster's supplementary defense, he pulled the ball again and hit the ground to Turner, but the nickname of the Monster was not for nothing, Howard quickly turned around and violently blocked Turner's layup.
