Chapter 206: Let's get off the horse first

The heart of the Spurs is, of course, Duncan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Since his rookie season, he has scored 20+10+2+2 data for 7 consecutive years, dominating the game both offensively and defensively, and the Spurs have also made the playoffs for seven consecutive years.

Karl Malone has not officially retired, but he is already second on the all-time scoring list.

Even so, some people are starting to see Duncan as the best power forward in history, and he will be officially crowned after he wins one or two more championships.

And with Duncan and the Spurs' consistency, coupled with Popovich's shrewdness, no one would doubt that.

Therefore, Duncan locked in the best power forward in history in advance, and some people proposed it, but no one refuted it.

It's really because Duncan is too low-key, whether it is a teammate or an opponent, whether it is on or off the court, he is honest and honest.

Who would have trouble with such a simple "stone Buddha"?

Lu Xiaofeng saw his honest appearance in person, and couldn't help but think of the sentence "The heavy sword has no edge, and the great skill is not work".

He is not too prominent, his bounce is not prominent, his speed is not prominent, and standing under the basket does not seem to have much deterrent power.

But if you really think so, Duncan will unknowingly make you miss the shot, grab the rebound, and lose the game before you know it.

The last look at the stats, Duncan's stats don't seem to be too prominent, making you lose inexplicably.

Generally speaking, a dominant star has a stunt that impresses.

Either unstoppable individual offense, like Jordan and O'Neal.

Either it's playmaking skills that are difficult to defend, like Magic Johnson.

Either it's an unassailable defense, like the legendary Russell.

But Duncan, it seems, can't find a memorable ability.

But his dominance is well known.

In Lu Xiaofeng's view, if a single ability is calculated by a value, Jordan and O'Neal's offense is undoubtedly 100 with a full value, and the magician's organization is also 100.

Although Duncan does not have a 100, his offense and defense are above 95, and his organizational ability is probably above 85.

Aside from his not-so-reliable free throws, he has almost no weaknesses and is simply the best example of an interior player.

Lu Xiaofeng also knew that in the original history, the Spurs would reach the finals this season, compete with the defending champion Pistons, and have the last laugh.

Spurs are undoubtedly the strongest opponents this season.

But Lu Xiaofeng will not be discouraged by this.

In this kind of regular season encounter, the outcome is not entirely determined by the strength of the team.

Winning or losing a basketball game is not decided by reasoning or a lineup on paper.

Winning or losing, you can only know if you have fought.

Both teams have played after a day off, neither team has lost a game, and the players should be in good shape.

The Lakers are playing at home, and it looks like they still have a bit of an advantage.

Before the game, in the live broadcast screen, the TV station showed a comparison of the lineups of the two teams.

At first glance, the Spurs and Lakers' lineups are still somewhat similar.

Parker is a speed-based point guard against the Upper Lands.

Ginobili vs. Kobe Bryant are both scoring guards who can score inside and outside, and can score and organize.

Bowen vs. Butler, one has a stronger defense, the other has a better offense, and if nothing else, he will switch to the opposing team's scoring guard.

Duncan against Odom also seems to be an all-round power forward, one on the inside, the other on the outside, and the offensive end may also explode each other.

And the two centers, Nesterovic against Mime, are both white and big, and they are not very good in health, but they both have a hand-to-hand distance shot.

From the perspective of the main force, the lineups of the two teams on paper are really indistinguishable.

Of course, the Lakers' bench can't compete with the Spurs.

Backup guard Brent Barry, who is the famous "white man can fly", is now an accurate three-point shooter, and he was still playing the main team in the supersonic last season, holding 10+5 data.

And that most famous "Mr. Key", Robert Horry.

Compared to these two, the Lakers' bench is simply unspeakable.

If the physical madman Lu Xiaofeng played the whole game, would it be considered one more substitute?

TNT was broadcast live across the United States, and the commentators were, of course, the famous Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.

Seeing the Chinese face, Kenny Smith couldn't help but think of an incident two years ago, and began to tease Barkley:

"Hey, Charles, are you interested in making a bet?"

When it comes to betting, Barkley is interested, and like Jordan, he's a regular in Las Vegas.

"How to bet? Bet on who wins? I pick Spurs. ”

"How about we take that rookie who is in the limelight?"

"Haha! Kenny, I'm not going to kiss a donkey's ass again. I bet on Lu's score of 20, and you lose the donkey's ass. ”

Now Smith is dumbfounded, Barkley has actually become smarter?

Smith's eyes rolled, and he came up with another idea:

"Charles, I didn't expect you to be so optimistic about Lu, however, I bet not on 20 points, but on 30 points, I bet that he can't score 30 points, do you still bet?"

"The first three games of my NBA career were all 30+? Has anyone ever done it? ”

"Of course, Wilt Chamberlain did."

"Then what else is there to say, of course I bet that if Lu's score is less than 30 points, I will kiss the donkey's ass again."

"Haha! Deal! ”

Smith was overjoyed when he saw that Barkley had been "fooled", and he had to settle down.

But Barkley really became cunning, and added:

"But there is a premise, and that is that Lu cannot have more than 10 assists. If Lu's stats are 20+10, I win, Kenny, do you still bet? Ha ha! ”

Kenny Smith thought about it carefully, and after last season's game, it seemed that no one had scored 20+10 against the Spurs, so he agreed:

"Okay, that's a deal. Charles, why are you so optimistic about Lu? ”

"Haha! I have long summed it up and cannot underestimate the Chinese. Moreover, don't you think Lu has the style I had back then? ”

"Haha! Lu Ke is much more handsome than you, and his figure is much better, I don't see that he has your style. ”

Lu Xiaofeng didn't know this, he was making serious preparations.

In the face of strong enemies, it can always stimulate the desire to win in his heart, Kobe Bryant is like this, and Lu Xiaofeng is also like this.

Sure enough, as everyone expected, when the ball was jumping, Bowen found Kobe, and Butler also stood next to Ginobili.

Later generations are used to seeing Ginobili playing as a substitute, and Lu Xiaofeng is still a little uncomfortable.

However, Mime finally won a jump ball, and when he fought for the ball with Nesterovich, who was a few years older than him, he jumped a little higher and gave the racket to Lu Xiaofeng.

To everyone's expectation, Lu Xiaofeng rushed up as soon as he got the ball.

The Spurs' two big men are still in the midfield, and Bowen is also following Kobe.

Lu Xiaofeng broke through Parker in one fell swoop, rushed into the three-second zone, and came to glide, pull the rod, and hit the board layup with his left hand.

It was only 5 seconds into the game, and the Lakers scored first.

There was still an audience at the scene who was not in place, and when I heard an exclamation, I raised my eyes and saw that the score became 2:0.

The atmosphere at the Lakers' home court is far from the Jazz's Delta Center.

But there were still a lot of Chinese fans who came to cheer on them, and Lu Xiaofeng really didn't disappoint them, and he gave a surprise at the beginning.

The shouts of "Lu Xiaofeng" and the shaking Chinese slogans made the atmosphere warm at once.

This kind of ball is just caught off guard.

Parker is also known for his speed, but he didn't expect Lu Xiaofeng's speed to seem to be faster than him, and he rushed over without paying attention.

Popovich stood on the sidelines and yelled at Parker.

That's his style, as strict as Sloane, and I'm afraid everyone in the Spurs has been scolded by him except Duncan.

didn't scold Duncan, it wasn't to give him face, but to scold Duncan and ignore him, it was useless.

Still, Popovich's scolding seemed to have had an effect.

Parker dribbled over, Duncan came up to block, Parker got rid of Lu Xiaofeng, burst into the Lakers' weak interior line like a gust of wind, and scored two points with a simple low-handed layup.

But today Lu Xiaofeng seems to want to make him ugly.

Dribbling to the front court, Lu Xiaofeng raised his hand to signal, as if he wanted to call for blocking.

As soon as Parker looked back and observed, Lu Xiaofeng was directly a dry three-point pull.

The three-point shot was followed by cheers from the crowd and a timeout whistle.

Popovich is so willful, or harsh, as soon as he saw Parker's defense of Lu Xiaofeng, he was very dissatisfied, and after only the second round of the game, he decisively called a timeout.

Lu Xiaofeng raised his hands high, and at the same time gestured with three points, inciting the emotions of the audience while walking, with the background of the pause, the effect was not bad.

The game has just begun, and it seems to be reaching its climax.
