Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Western Preseason Tour (2)
Thank you for your collection and recommendation, I have today's results. I hope you will continue to support and collect. Thanks, this is the second update.
Snow had the ball and gave it to Luke at half-time.
Luke snuggling up to Danny? Manning receives a pass from Snow.
Danny, a 6-foot-10-inch tall striker? Manning was once the top rookie in the NBA, but over the years, injuries have become his number one enemy. However, his indomitable fighting spirit has made him still tenacious in the NBA arena today.
And when he sees Luke snuggling himself, Danny? Manning knew what was going to happen.
"Boy, what a disrespect for the old man." Danny? Manning said, "Then let me see what you're capable of." ”
Luke held this position, with his back to Danny? Manning, old spicy Danny? Of course, Manning won't let Luke relax, and the movements in his hands began to increase more, and Luke didn't care so much, and turned around lightly. Danny? Manning immediately moved laterally to get into place, and Luke dribbled back and looked at Raga. Then suddenly a cross-step shook off Danny? Manning's center of gravity, then picked up the back-to-back dribble and easily passed Danny? Manning, inside line. Don Yell? Marshall had to come out and make up for it. But Luke was not timid, and directly jumped to avoid Tang Yer? Marshall's big hand and then an easy layup to score.
"Hehehehehe," the 76ers players laughed and exaggerated as they watched the Jazz players being teased.
"Damn." Don Yell? Marshall smashed the basketball.
Nets offense, Don Yell? Marshall held the ball, played with his back against Brian, forced into the inside, shot with a small hook, was interfered with by Brian, and did not score. But Danny? Manning grabbed the rebound and completed the layup.
The 76ers attacked, Luke passed the ball to Raga, but Raga didn't score, and the rebound was lost to Donyer? Marshall snatched it, and then John? Starks forced a shot in the face of Snow, didn't score, and the rebound was lost to Donyer? Marshall grabbed it and passed it to DeSean? Stevenson, he directly broke through Raga to throw the ball, or did he not score, and was it lost to Donyer? Marshall snatched it, and he singled McCulloch, scoring easily. The Jazz went on a 6-2 run.
"Is the 76ers' center sleepwalking?" Barkley, who was sitting in the studio, frowned, "Except for the jump ball, he hasn't grabbed a single rebound so far, and he has been robbed by the opponent, what is he doing?" If this continues, the 76ers will lose! ”
Luke knows that too.
"Mike," Luke found McLoch, "focus and brace yourself." Go grab the rebound! ”
"Why do you command me!" McCloch, who was in a bad mood, got angry and nudged Luke, "Do you know you're just a rookie?" I can't grab it, why don't you go? If you have the ability, you can grab it! ”
Luke was stunned.
Snow saw that something was wrong and quickly hugged McLoch, and Raga also quickly hugged Luke, dragged the two away, and said as he dragged back: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, he didn't mean to ......"
Larry saw that something was wrong and quickly called a timeout.
"Hahaha, there's a good show to watch." Barkley said.
"Larry is a veteran coach and he knows how to deal with this kind of problem." Smith said.
"What's going on!" Larry growled. "It's going to be a fight, what do you want to do!"
"Humph!" McCloche dropped his towel and went back to the locker room.
"Hehehe, McLoch went back to the locker room. After watching him stay with the 76ers, the countdown can be started. Barkley said.
"You're back!" Larry roared, "Damn! ”
"Beep-" The timeout ended quickly, and he was back on the field immediately.
"Alright, now Ben is up, Tyrone? Hill plays power forward, Bryan goes down to play small forward, Raga takes a break, and Reed scores up. Hurry up, get out of the game! ”
The game went on again. Luke sat on the bench instead.
Luke put a towel over his head. Burying his head deeply, thinking about what he had done after the crossing, it was indeed a little too arrogant. But it's all for the good of the team, for no other reason......
"Luke," Luke heard someone call him and looked up to see that it was Larry. "Coach, what's the matter?"
"Luke," Larry said, patting Luke on the shoulder, "are there a lot of questions that you can't figure out, you can't figure out?" ”
Luke nodded.
"Hehehe," Larry smiled, pointing to the very end of the bench and said, "Go ahead, someone will tell you there." “
Luke looked over and saw that it was Aaron sitting there playing.
"Looking for him?" Luke asked.
"Yes," Larry said, "he'll teach you how to do it." Go ahead. ”
Luke walked over, and the other players consciously moved out of the way.
"Hahaha," Aaron smiled, "you have today, too!" ”
"......" Luke was speechless.
When Aaron had laughed enough to himself, he said, "Do you know what mistakes you made?" ”
Luke shook his head.
"You're so arrogant, you've seen yourself as a superstar, the leader of the team, an indispensable person for this team. You can do anything, including not passing the ball to me. This is something that no one has dared to do since 1997! "With that, Aaron hammered Luke. Then he continued. "But what about your true identity? Just a rookie or an undrafted rookie, Reed and Brian are better than you, at least they're second-round picks. And you're the kind of person who can't afford it. But what do you think you're treated? We've never asked you to do the things that rookies are supposed to do, like carrying shoes, buying water, etc. You can also make recommendations to the team to trade players. You're treated more than much. So there's always been a lot of dissatisfaction within the team. These are all things that Larry and I have pressed down. This time it just exploded. We can't protect you for the rest of your life, and there are many things you need to do yourself. Just like this incident, he is directly opposite you, and you have no way to hide. ”
Luke was thoughtful.
Aaron continued, "You are a very gifted person like me, but you lack a temperament...... Yes, it's leadership temperament, although it sometimes breaks out, but most of the time you are an obscure person, and no one knows about you. You lack a kind of domineering, you can't give the opponent a kind of oppression, you can't put psychological pressure on the opponent, you can't make the opponent fear you and believe you, this is your biggest failure! After a pause, he added, "You love passing, don't you?" Don't deny it, I can see that I like to pass the ball too, but most of the time I don't know how to pass it, they say I'm alone, it's not right. As a team leader, you must have the courage to dare to fight, everyone else is a supporting role, only you are the protagonist, have you ever seen the protagonist give a play to the supporting role? It's not enough for the protagonist to perform on his own, so how can he let it? You love passing the ball too much, that's not right! ”
After talking for a long time, the first quarter of the game was over, and the second quarter had begun.
Luke also thought about it for a long time and digested a lot.
Finally, he opened his eyes and seemed to have made up his mind, walked up to Larry and said, "Coach, I'm going to play!"
