Chapter 321 - Wonderful Empty Connection
Li Yao looked at Michael, who was nervous in front of him. Conley couldn't help but chuckle, and then it started directly when everyone was caught off guard.
Michael. Conley also hurriedly followed Li Yao's offensive pace and made a sticky defense.
But Michael. Conley is one of the standard dexterous point guards who are fast and lightweight, and Lee Ya was defeated by Raymond in his first season. Felton and Delong. After Williams and other strong point guards rubbed it off, he was scientifically gaining weight during his injury and recovery.
Li Yao's weight gain was not blindly gaining weight, but gaining weight without affecting his body's flexibility and speed.
So as soon as the two sides made physical contact, Li Yao directly relied on the strong advantage of his body to forcibly squeeze Michael away. Conley's stickers.
And as the initiative of Michael. Conley was even a little unstable on his feet by Li Yao's impact.
So in the midst of this plus and minus, Li Yao got rid of Michael in an instant. Conley's defense.
Because the Grizzlies players were specially spread out by the Clippers players to pull the defensive formation, so at the moment when Li Yao broke through, before they could react, Li Yao was already hanging on the Grizzlies' basket again.
"Hey, Kenny, it looks like Lee has a strong desire to attack today." Buckley, who was sitting on the commentary stage, looked at Kenny beside him with great interest. Smith said.
Indeed, after the previous game against the Timberwolves, there were reports of infighting in the Clippers, and finally the Clippers officially came forward to clarify that it was Lee's physical problems that caused people to misunderstand. Judging from Lee's current state, he must have fully recovered. "Kenny. Smith thought for a moment before speaking.
"Isn't it time for us to get another performance of Lee today?" Barkley said with some excitement.
You must know that after the Clippers' previous two games lacked Li Yao's passion, the overall viewing effect dropped by several notches, and even Barkley's commentary was a little helpless.
"Not necessarily, it depends on whether the Grizzlies can withstand the Clippers' wave of bench bandits on the court, otherwise, we are likely to witness Lee and Da Yao clocking out in the third quarter again." Kenny. Smith said with a smile.
"You're so bad Kenny, but I like it." Barkley said with a smile.
", I'm not gay." Kenny. Smithton said with a look of disgust.
Not to mention the comic commentary of TNT's two cross talk commentators, Michael of the Grizzlies. Conley is a little unsightly, from the beginning to the present, he has not only been eaten twice by Li Yao, but even robbed by Li Yao once, which makes him a little embarrassed.
So in the Grizzlies' next offense, Michael. Conley still used the pick-and-roll, but this time Michael. Conley, however, did not pass the ball, but through Kevin. Lefou's cover instantly from Sergi. Ibaka's side broke through.
Since Li Yao was replaced by Kevin. Lefu gave a delay in the pursuit of the defense, while Sergi. Ibaka has not been able to keep up with Michael. Conley's footsteps, so it led to Michael. Conley only needs to face Da Yao in the penalty area at this time.
Facing Da Yao, who is ready to make a move on himself, Michael. Conley, however, suddenly stopped and ended the attack with a small throw.
Da Yao was helpless against this kind of high-throwing ball, and could only watch the basketball get into the basket.
Michael, who scored the goal. Conley couldn't help but roar angrily to vent the breath that he had been suppressed by Li Yao before.
Even Michael. Conley also turned his gaze to Li Yao's body, and the strong fighting spirit made everyone around him feel it.
"Interesting, interesting." Li Yao is also interested at this time, you must know that since the start of the new season, only Stephen has been the only point guard he has played against. Curry and Michael. Conley and the others had shown this kind of fighting intent to themselves.
The other games were a little too easy except for the Timberwolves, and they were all against point guard masters and veterans in the league, and they didn't have this kind of fighting spirit for Li Yao at all, so Li Yao thought it was interesting.
When the Clippers attacked, Li Yao had a bold idea.
When Li Yao controlled the basketball and slowly advanced to the front court, he beckoned to Sergi. Ibaka stepped forward to do the pick-and-roll.
Michael. Conley couldn't help frowning after seeing that Li Yao actually beckoned to block and dismantle.
"Hey, Lee is going to shoot Michael back with a pick-and-roll. Conley? The Grizzlies' offense so far has been based on pick-and-roll, and everyone may have overlooked that Lee also started with pick-and-roll, and when he played against the Suns and Jazz, Lee used his pick-and-roll to prove that the Clippers are also very suitable for pick-and-roll tactics. Barkley was also interested when he saw Li Yao on the commentary platform actually using blocking tactics.
Sergi. After seeing Li Yao's instructions, Ibaka also hurriedly stepped forward to block and dismantle Li Yao.
And Michael. Conley and Kevin. Lefu also chose to wrap the ball carrier Li Yao in an instant, because in their opinion, Sergi. Ibaka doesn't have long-range shooting ability and is very little of a threat to the Grizzlies' basket.
But in Michael. Conley and Kevin. At the moment when Lefu was about to form a bag on Li Yao, Li Yao flicked his wrist, and the basketball flew directly over their heads to the basket.
This play of Li Yao directly will be Michael. Conley and Kevin. Lefu was confused, what the hell is this kind of passing? Although Da Yao is in the inner line, the height of this ball doesn't look like it was hung to Da Yao.
Just in Michael. Conley and Kevin. When Lefu was still thinking about what Li Yao's pass meant, there was a "boom", and I saw a figure wearing the Clippers' home jersey hanging on their basket.
The big "10" number behind him has already announced to everyone in the audience that this empty dunk is from the Clippers' No. 5 rookie this year, Demar. DeRozan.
In fact, Li Yao was greeting Sergi. Ibaka had already secretly given it to DeMar before he stepped forward to block it. DeRozan made a gesture, and the meaning of this gesture is also very simple, that is, to make DeMar. DeRozan looked for an opportunity to cut to the basket and wait for his pass.
And in all the attention of Li Yao and Sergi. Ibaka's pick-and-roll gives the moment of attraction to DeMar. DeRozan seized this opportunity and directly turned around and instantly wiped into the Grizzlies' interior, and then Li Yao's pass was also just right.
In this way, the two completed a wonderful air connection.
