Chapter 42 - First to Lead
"Russell, are you going to go mad at that Chinese kid?" Look at Russell. Westbrook came back with a whistle, Kevin. Lefou's gossip heart burned for the first time.
The rest of the people also surrounded them, after all, as teammates, they also knew the grievances between Wei Shao and Coach Stanford, and just now they saw Wei Shao actually walking towards the opponent's starting point guard Li Yao, and Li Yao is the most qualified point guard in his eyes as disclosed by Coach Trent Johnson in the media, and they are really worried that Wei Shao will "fight" with Li Yao before the game.
But now that he saw Wei Shao's relaxed expression and whistling with a smile on his face, he knew that it was a slight development that did not go according to the script that several people thought.
"What's the madness, Lee is a very interesting guy, we'll be friends in the future, haha, by the way, remember to call me Wei Shao in the future, I like this very much." Recalling the chat with Li Yao just now, Wei Shao couldn't help but sigh that Li Yao was really an interesting friend.
"Nani? Not only did you not quarrel, but you became friends? Kevin. Lefu was amazed and felt that his brain circuits were not enough. According to Wei Shao's impulsive character, even if he didn't quarrel with Li Yao, he would choke a few words, but the result was good, not only did nothing happen, but he became a friend, Kevin. Lefu also became curious about Li Yao for the first time.
"Okay, Wei Shao, you just let Stanford go?" Danny. Green first called out "Wei Shao", and then asked curiously, after all, in Russell. When Westbrook knew that their UCLA semifinal opponent was Stanford University, he excitedly clamored to beat Lee Ya to give Coach Trent Johnson, a guy who looked down on him, look good, but now he has become good friends with Stanford's starting point guard. Green was a little confused.
"How come, it's true that we are friends off the court, but on the basketball court we are enemies, today's victory is destined to be ours, and this year's championship is also destined to be ours, are you right?" Russell. Although Westbrook and Li Yao became friends, it doesn't mean that he has forgotten how Coach Trent Johnson sarcastically mocked him in the first place, and he will definitely take revenge.
Not to mention the heated discussion of the five people on the UCLA side, the starting five on the Stanford side are also gathered together.
"Lee, I thought that guy was here to get into trouble, but I saw that the two of you were actually talking and laughing, but you didn't quarrel?" Jackson asked puzzled, knowing that he almost rolled up his sleeves just now and came over to prepare for war, but there was nothing to do, which made him very helpless.
"That's it, Lee, that track kid, actually talking and laughing with you, do you two have any ulterior secrets?" Robin. Lopez asked with a grin.
"Phew, we don't have a grudge, can't we be friends, and besides, if there is a grudge, there is a grudge between him and Coach Trent Johnson, what does it matter to me." Li Yao looked at Coach Trent Johnson on the sidelines and pouted, and immediately cleared up the relationship.
Stanford everyone immediately laughed, they didn't expect Li Yao to have such a funny side, which made Coach Trent Johnson off the field look inexplicable, why did the track and field kid come to communicate with Li Yao for a while After the players on both sides were happy, he was worried about the friction between the two sides just now, it seems that he thought too much.
Finally, with the referee's opening whistle, the NCAA's first semifinal officially began between UCLA and Stanford.
Although Kevin. Love is also a rebounding monster in the NCAA, but he is the same as Brooke when it comes to jumping balls. Lopez was much worse, relying on his own 5 centimeters taller than Lefou's bounce and better than Lefou. Lopez easily won the ball, and it seems that since Li Ya's rebirth, Stanford University has not lost to any team in the jump ball, which is the happiness of having two towers on the inside.
But Li Yao knew that the positioning of traditional centers in the NBA in the future was so embarrassing, and Li Yao couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of this. Think about Howard, who will become the league's No. 1 center in the future, and actually become a blue-collar worker in later generations, which is something that makes many people fall through the glasses.
But now that the game has officially begun, where will Li Yao be given a chance to think about life, Wei Shao rushed to Li Yao and put on a defensive posture as soon as possible.
Facing Wei Shao, who is about the same height as himself, Li Yao just quietly dribbled the ball on the outside looking for opportunities, but he knew very well that until now he has never met a real opponent in the opposite position of the point guard, and Wei Shao will be the first real strong point guard he faced, Li Yao felt that his body couldn't stop trembling, not because he was afraid, but because he was full of fighting spirit at this time.
Li Yao Ta glanced at the timer, only about 10 seconds had passed, and the remaining time was still very sufficient, Li Yao couldn't control his desire to fight, he wanted to have a head-on battle with Wei Shao.
Li Yao, who was holding the ball, looked at Robin who was about to step forward to block and dismantle. Lopez shook his head gently, this first goal, he wanted to face Wei Shao himself.
Li Yao still used his signature Wade's first step, Rao is Wei Shao's speed as a "known" track and field boy, was opened by Li Yao's first step by nearly a position, but before Li Yao continued to break through, Wei Shao had already caught up with Li Yao again, which made Li Yao have to sigh that he was really a track and field boy, you must know that even Oj. Mayo failed to follow himself at the first time, and among the players Li Yao is currently in contact with, only the peak Wade in training mode cannot get rid of himself.
Li Yao, who was caught up, was not surprised, because he knew Wei Shao's speed very well, otherwise he would not have been told by Coach Trent Johnson to practice track and field.
Facing Wei Shao, who was chasing the defense, Li Yao followed up with a cross over reverse pull ball, and instantly staggered his position with Wei Shao, who thought he could open up some space, but he didn't expect Wei Shao to kick the floor with his left foot, forcibly twisting the defensive position that had been lost, and chasing Li Yao again.
Seeing Wei Shao's series of actions, Li Yao frowned, not because he was chased again, but because this kind of action that relies on explosive power to force a turn is too great a threat to his ankles and knees.
"Wei Shao, don't do such dangerous actions in the future, isn't it just a ball, this has too much impact on your knees and ankles, I don't want you to be unable to play against me in the NBA in the future because of injuries." After hesitating, Li Yao still decided to give Wei Shao a piece of advice, after all, they are friends now, and Li Yao doesn't want the NBA to lose the scenery of Wei Shao's symbol in the future.
"Well, I'll pay attention next time." Wei Shao, who saw that Li Yao did not continue to attack, but stopped and said such a call to himself, thought that this was Li Yao's trash talk on the basketball court at first, but when he saw the serious look on Li Yao's face, he realized that Li Yao was really thinking about himself, Wei Shao's heart warmed, it seems that his newly made friend was not in vain.
Of course, Wei Shao also understood how dangerous his actions just now were, but he was completely instinctive just now, and maybe if he was given another chance, his body's reaction would be far beyond his thoughts.
In just a few seconds, UCLA originally formed again because of Li Yao's breakthrough of some scattered formations, Li Yao glanced at the timer, there were nearly 20 seconds left, and there was still plenty of time left for him, so let's do it again.
Chris. The most important thing about Paul's cross over is the change of rhythm, and the reason why Li Yao can sometimes break through Wade at his peak in training mode is completely because he found the right rhythm at that time.
The gap between today's Wei Shao and Wade at his peak is really not a star and a half, cross over reappears, a defensive misposition of Ka Zhun Wei Shao, Li Yao touched the inside line of UCLA with an acceleration, but Lefu has been Brooke. Lopez pulled to the other side, and UCLA's inside line was now only left by Robin. Lopez was the opposing power forward, and Li Yao rose directly from the ground, wanting to show his strength to Margot Robbie, who was watching his game from behind the bench, with a dunk.
Just when Li Yao was ready to dunk, he heard a shout "come down for me" behind him.
It turned out that Wei Shao, who was left behind by Li Yao, had already caught up at this time, and Wei Shao, who jumped in the air with Li Yao, was like a surprise to Li Yao.
βDamn itγβ Li Yao shouted in his heart to damn it, and in the face of Wei Shao's blocking threat, Li Yao finally chose to compromise, collected the ball and half-turned the small lever with a backhand and put the ball firmly into the basket.
After landing on the ground, Li Yao glanced at Wei Shao, this guy is really ghostly.
"Unbelievable, Reggie, I didn't expect that the point guards of both sides showed us and the audience in front of the TV at the beginning of the game such a wonderful matchup, whether it is Lee's offense or Russell's defense, it is extremely exciting, just rushing this ball is completely worth the ticket price, I am even more looking forward to the subsequent matchup between the two." ESPN's side, Mark. As a point guard, Jackson was very excited to see such a wonderful matchup between point guards.
"Hey, Kenny, did you notice that Lee stopped after the first break and seemed to say something to Russell, and then Lee's original dunk was replaced by a layup under the threat of Russell's block, and after landing, Lee glanced at Russell, did you say something happened between the two?" and Mark. The more Barkley said that Jackson's focus was completely different, the more the fire of gossip burned, and he was eager to run down and ask both parties now.
"Sir Charles, can we be more professional?" Kenny. Smith can't stand Barkley a little, this has just begun, can't you explain some professional knowledge first?
"Where am I not professional? You know, everything on the pitch has the potential to change the direction of the game. "Barkley was replaced by Kenny. As soon as Smith said this, his face turned red at first, but then he quibbled even more.
