In the Magic's visiting locker room, Lillard silently tightened his shoelaces. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The outside world is really biased, they don't understand your strength at all, John." Aminu said indignantly.

Lillard shook his head, his expression was flat, and his hands were resting on his thighs, "Anyway, the Magic's record ahead of us is an indisputable fact, and the overall strength of their team is indeed relatively balanced. I saw Li Dong when he was in college, and he wasn't that powerful, but I didn't expect him to explode as soon as he entered the NBA. ”

"Maybe some people are the kind of rookie who is the pinnacle?" Nick Young, who had explosive hairstyles, leaned over and said jokingly. "You know, like Emeka Okafor, or O.J. Mayo, or Damon Stodmar."

Damien Lillard didn't speak again, just silent, silent like a killer in the dark......

……

The spotlight shone on the floor of Amway Arena, and the Magic and Trail Blazers opened up to fight each other.

At the beginning, Oladipo had to pull Li Dong to dance a mechanical dance together, saying that it was to break the bad luck of two consecutive defeats. Where would Li Dong do this, he swayed left and right a few times, and the audience in the front row of the field burst into laughter, which made Li Dong even more embarrassed.

It didn't take long for the starters of the two teams to take the lead on the court, and Li Dong shook Lillard's hand, feeling very powerful.

"Tonight's game is going to be exciting." Lillard suddenly smiled, but his tone was cold and emotionless.

Li Dong chuckled in his heart, this girl is giving him a tactic! His eyes narrowed, and he responded without showing weakness, "I think so, the people of Orlando have been waiting for this game for a long time. ”

The sound of the scene was too noisy, and there was no live sound of two people in the camera, but the audience only looked at the silent footage, and they already smelled the strong smell of gunpowder.

At the start of the game, Vucevic lost the jump ball.

It was Mason Plumrie who jumped him, and when this guy with long arms like King Kong picked the ball away, Li Dong was also taken aback, "It's really talented, it's like hanging up." ”

Lillard stood with the ball outside the three-point line, and the Trail Blazers began to run in a regular game with his organization.

Starters: Point guard Damian Lillard, shooting guard C.J. Lillard, C.J. Lillard, point guard, Mike Collum, small forward Al Farouk Aminu, power forward Noah Vonleh, center Mason Plumlee.

The Trail Blazers underwent a major roster change in the offseason, with four of the starting five gone, leaving only Lillard. The Knicks picked Lopez, the Spurs signed Aldridge, the Mavericks grabbed Matthews, and Batum was traded away by themselves...... In addition to them, the team has sold off almost every other player in the rotation, and the intent to rebuild around Lillard for the core is extremely clear.

Aminu is 2.06 meters tall, which is definitely tall at the small forward position.

After thinking about it for a long time before the game, Skels still let Li Dong, who has a better arm span, defend Aminu, and Oladipo is the first gun to defend the Trail Blazers' outside line. Mike Collum, who is averaging 17.8 points per game so far this season and has just played just 30 minutes.

It's a targeted defense, and in the first wave of the Trail Blazers' offense, Mike Collum felt the power of the NBA's top perimeter defender today.

Dribbling dribbling...... If you can't get it, pass it on again...... Go back and ship again......

After almost ten seconds of entanglement, C.J. Mike Collum's face turned from blue to red, then from red to purple, and finally reluctantly rolled over and stepped back for a jumper, while Oladipo was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and his big hand almost missed the basketball.

The basketball was naturally outrageous, hitting the basket and being hit by Vucevic and Plumri at the same time, flying out of the baseline.

The referee awarded the ball to the home team, which caused a round of applause from the audience.

Jennings beckoned, and Li Dong ran over to serve the baseline ball, and after he fell to the small forward position, he belonged to the frontcourt player, and sometimes he would run to serve a baseline ball or something.

Then Li Dong and Jennings pushed the ball through the half.

Jennings ran to the left 45-degree position and gave a pass to Li Dong in the middle who was following him, and Li Dong turned again and handed it to Oladipo on the right.

Li Dong took advantage of the situation to cut from the middle to the baseline, and ran to the bottom corner with Vucevic's cover, while Jennings completed a cross move with Thaddeus Young, and Aaron Gordon ran to the outside to receive the basketball. At this time, the slow-paced Vonleh couldn't keep up with Aaron Gordon, and a certain distance was opened between the two.

Aaron Gordon received the ball and tapped it to make a gesture to shoot, and Vonleh's center of gravity subconsciously floated up.

Aaron Gordon then twisted and broke through, and the rhythm was so good that Vonleh didn't have time to adjust before letting the 2.06m big man rush inside.

Once inside the line, the lethality went up to the next level, as Aaron Gordon and Plumley battled in the air, causing a foul on Plumley's thugs in the shaking.

The referee's whistle blows, free throws!

What？

Plumrie's facial features were twisted together, the corners of his eyes were bent, his hands were spread out, his face showed a super innocent look, and an embarrassing word was almost printed on his brow.

The referee gave him a blank look and blew it, can it still be changed?

Aaron Gordon made two of two free throws. 2 to 0.

Lillard didn't speak, and after receiving Plumrie's serve, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly accelerated, and his straight line was so fast that Jennings, who was a little older, almost didn't keep up.

Outside the three-point line, he stopped his high-speed rush again, and suddenly waved his hand outside the three-point line, and started the normal organization of the offense again.

Li Dong shook his head and organized the defenders and champions......

Plumley ran to Lillard to do a pick-and-roll, near the 45-degree three-point line, which is the best place to launch the pick-and-roll strategy, Lillard directly faced Vucevic with the help of the pick-and-roll, and his ass was pouted, desperately withstanding the indomitable little steel cannon Jennings behind him, and flicked the basketball back and forth a few times.

Suddenly, Lillard passed the ball and with his usual simplicity, Plumlee received the basketball.

Plumri was overjoyed and was about to take three steps!

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed before his eyes.

And then—

"Smack!"

He suddenly felt a pain in his fingers, and subconsciously let go of his hands in pain, and the thick basketball was like a treasure that had been enchanted, and it disappeared out of thin air~

"It's a dog!" Plumrie's eyes were red, and the back of White 1 looked so hateful at the moment!

Li Dong and Oladipo easily completed the frontcourt two-on-one, and the basket creaked with a "clang".

"Wow!"

The crowd cheered and raised their hands, and the Magic's fast-break this season has become an appetizer at Amway Arena.

Oladipo high-fived Li Dong in celebration, "It's a good break!" ”

"You're doing a good job!"

The air catch after this break seemed to ignite the excitement in the hearts of the Magic players, and for a while, the whole team turned into a bulldog, full of aggression.

The Trailblazers, on the other hand, were stuck in a swamp and struggled.

Lillard kept moving the ball, constantly organizing his teammates, and constantly cheering everyone up, but found that it had little effect, and the Magic's two swingmen took turns to attack and take turns to break through the ball, like a player carved out of a mold, and neither McCollum nor Aminu was the kind of player who was good defensively.

Half a quarter later, the Wizards used up a short timeout, used a long timeout, but 9-18, trailing by nearly ten points.

Then, the Wizards, who returned to the court, gradually regained a little touch, and Nick Young hit a strong three-point shot to make the score difference look less than that.

And in one of Lillard's offenses, he completed a wonderful crotch cross step, and completed an aerial relay slam dunk on Vucevic's head and Plumrie!

Plumri spat out viciously, and the master is not easy to mess with.

14-18, seeing that the Trail Blazers chased by 5 points in a row, Skeys decisively used the regular timeout, anyway, even if he didn't use it, this timeout would have to be forced sooner or later.

Skyles said that the two teases on the opposite side were too hot, and called a timeout to cool them down. What we have to do is cut off the connection between the inside and outside of the Trail Blazers and do a good job defensively.

After returning, Li Dong strictly implemented the cutting work arranged by Skyles, using his movement speed to form the sharpest defensive scalpel with Oladipo on the court, as long as Lillard sends the ball to the inside, there will always be an active figure of the two of them.

And with the ability of Plummery and Vonleh, it can only be said about this.

Lillard was very helpless, and he actually had a feeling of "having the intention to kill the thief, but he was unable to return to the sky".

Compared with the active Li Dong, his eyes showed envy for the first time, and he suddenly entered a team like the Magic that is enough to compete for a playoff spot, and there are few players in the team who don't like to defend, and the combination with Oladipo looks like a poor man's version of Wadega James, compared to a mess of the Trailblazers, I don't know how many times better......
