Chapter Seventy-Nine: From Florida

Li Zhi and Durant glanced at each other, and both understood the current situation.

Kobe Bryant was also embarrassed when he heard Barkley's words, and said before the game that there was no one in the second grade, but he didn't expect that the bull that had just been blown out was broken by Gibson.

This year, for the first time in the NBA, the rules for players to serve as coaches of the Rookie Challenge were implemented, and Garnett and Kobe were not very familiar with it, so there were five up and five down on the court, which was also agreed upon by Kobe and Garnett, but I didn't expect a Gibson to be killed halfway.

Kobe Bryant was sad, Garnett was much happier, thinking that only Roy could compete with first-year Li Zhi and Durant, but Gibson's appearance made Garnett overjoyed.

In the second half, Kobe Bryant did not play the lineup that embarrassed him, but replaced the starting combination of Conley, Li Zhi, Durant, Yi Jianlian and Horford.

As soon as the five players came on the court, they were cheered by the fans, and Durant and Richie, as the league's new stars today, naturally have countless fans to support.

Seeing this scene, Kobe Bryant breathed a sigh of relief and put his mind at ease.

In the second year, Rondo, Roy, Gibson, Rudy Gay and Aldridge were replaced, and Gibson, who had a good performance in the previous quarter, remained on the court, and this lineup was also a standard big four small.

But soon, Durant and Rich, who were red-eyed for MVP, quickly became powerful.

Li Zhi held the ball and went inside, and came up with a powerful slam dunk above Rudy Gay's head, completely ignoring Rudy Gay's defense.

Then Durant broke through the middle to split Horford, and Li Zhi found the opportunity, shook off Gibson's defense very quickly, cut the basket, and scored again with both hands.

This ushered in bursts of cheers from the fans, this is Li Zhi's strongest Saiyan body, bounce, stagnation, speed, and power are all perfectly combined, and the two actual dunks are more exciting than most previous dunk contests.

The sophomore also did not back down, Brandon Roy showed a strong aura, and the positional battle was again misplaced to single Horford, and after two consecutive changes of direction, he shook the Horford pole for a layup, and Rudy Gay also continued to feel and scored on the mid-range shot.

Both teams played offensive basketball and had a sparse defense, and soon the first year was six points behind the second class.

After 6 minutes of the third quarter, the two teams took a timeout, and the first year replaced Yi Jianlian and Conley, and replaced Belinelli and Brewer.

Kobe Bryant understands that the current situation on the court, the lineup is reasonable and useless, the defense is sparse, and only by attacking can he wait for a reversal.

Kobe Bryant's idea was right, and when he returned to the court, he was faster, had more outside shots, and scored more easily.

Li Zhi covered with the ball, cooperated with Brewer in the middle, and then assisted Brewer to hit a three-point shot.

This is a very simple and practical tactic, running, passing, scoring, the two have played countless games together in college, and they are full of tacit understanding.

Unknowingly, the first grade had already played a wave of 8:0, overtaking the second grade by two points, and the second grade had to call a timeout.

Barkley looked at the lineup on the field and said, "How do I look at the first-year lineup, how familiar is it?" ”

Kenny Smith replied, "Of course I'm familiar with it, George Lee, Corey Brewer, and Al Horford aren't just a few of the people at Buddha University last year, but Noah is missing." ”

Kenny Smith woke up from the dream, and Barkley exclaimed, "Oh my God, it's not fair to the second year, these guys have been working together for so long, and they all have their own tactics!" ”

Barkley was right, and the reason why the first-year was able to play like this was entirely due to the tactics of the university.

Billy Donovan's tactics are to play stars, push speed, and fight defense and counterattacks, and this tactic has been tried and tested in the NCAA.

Kenny Smith said, "Didn't you notice? There's also Belinelli, who and Ritchie are also Warriors teammates. Plus an upgraded version that can attack Noah - Durant. ”

The domestic CCTV5 channel is also discussing, Zhang Weiping analyzed: "Now the five people on the field are all related to Li Zhi, Li Zhi's skills are comprehensive, plus the cooperation of several people, the second grade is not an opponent." ”

Yu Jia sighed and said, "It's just that the United Arab Emirates are not on it, it would be good if the United Arab Emirates were here." ”

At home, they are lamenting that Yi Jianlian is not playing, while fans in the United States are calling for Noah to play.

Bryant didn't let the fans go online, and after the adjustment, he replaced Noah and Conley, and replaced Durant and Belinelli.

Fans watching the live broadcast online were in an uproar.

"God, what did I see, Buddha F4 is on the field together!"

"The best combination in NCAA history, a two-time champion combination, I can see them again!"

"Damn, why am I crying?"

Many fans are nostalgic for the original glory of the University, two consecutive championships, which is a legend in the NCAA, no less than the NBA dynasty.

At this time, in the arena, many people saw the NCAA Finals, and the four of them appeared together, which immediately made many people excited. Even those who don't know can listen to the people next to them at this time and join the shouting army.

"Come on!"

"Buddha will win!"

Cheering in the stands, Li Zhi and the four of them were slightly stunned, looked at each other, and were also stunned.

Noah smiled and said, "Let them see the power of our Buddha F4? ”

Brewer chewed gum nostalgia and said, "Nice idea." ”

The four of them looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.

It turns out that the NBA All-Star is still a very conscientious game, and Kobe Bryant also adheres to the concept of All-Star service to fans, and four people appear in the voice of fans.

Conley listened to the cheers of the audience, looked at Li Zhi and the four of them with envy, and was stunned. Oden was reimbursed at the beginning of the season, and it was very serious, otherwise we would be able to fight together at this moment!

The game started with both teams on the pitch.

Unlike the previous game, the sophomore offense, Brandon Roy broke through for a layup, and Noah missed under interference.

The four of them were on the field at the same time, and the defensive intensity seemed to have risen by a level, even if the four of them were not intentional, the system formed over the years also inadvertently increased the defense.

Noah's rim protection ability has improved again, Horford's interior passing and control organization has become more proficient, and Richmond and Brewer's three-point shots have become more accurate, and entering the NBA has given several people a lot of improvement.

Richie received a pass from Conley and hit a layup.

The second-year attacked again, Rudy Gay broke through, and was once again heavily defended by the first-year, and Li Zhi's defense suffocated him.

Rudy Gay missed another shot, and the first grader quickly fought back.

The atmosphere on the court was a bit solemn, and the second year realized that the first year had strengthened the defensive intensity, and gradually strengthened the defense.

Everyone is a rookie, doesn't have a lot of injury concerns, most of them are not in the core of the team, and they are willing to show their true skills at the All-Star Game.

Li Zhi didn't care about anything else, he took the ball and shot it deservedly, and at this time, he was a well-deserved new star.

Next, the defensive intensity increased, and the two teams played inextricably, and many people understood why the University was able to win two consecutive NCAA championships, and the four-man team was so anxious about the potential rookies of the first NBA second-year team.
