Chapter 101 Shooting is also a beauty
"Well done!" O'Brien said to Li Cheng, who walked off the field.
Li Cheng scratched his head shyly, the modesty hidden in the bones of the Chinese still made Li Cheng a little embarrassed in the face of others' appreciation.
In the second quarter of the game, O'Brien sent Li Cheng on the court again. Now Li Cheng is the player who has played the most minutes for the Pacers, and his steady play every game makes people feel that his form has hardly fluctuated.
"There are too many talents in players that can be expressed in numbers!" O'Brien sighed.
Hart nodded and said, "Indeed, it's like Guo Li's ability to maintain and adjust his state." ”
'A player like this is definitely a gem, he has a good character, he has quality and a little bit of leadership potential.
"You've decided."
"I didn't decide, I decided with Mr. Bird."
"Hmm! It looks like there will be big moves in the team this summer. Hart's eyes were filled with anticipation and a smile.
O'Brien nodded in response, "With Lee and Danny as the core, I think we'll soon be strong contenders for the championship." ”
"I'm really looking forward to this day!" Hart felt as if he had the illusion that he had seen the Pacers, the supershooter in the No. 31 jersey, leading the team on the court.
While Hart and O'Brien were talking, Li Cheng hit another goal to equalize the score of the two teams.
Durant looked at the score on the sideline scoreboard and clenched his fists.
In his bones, Durant is a man who does not admit defeat. In the NBA, no player who can become an All-Star will admit defeat lightly. If they don't have even the most basic competitiveness, they won't choose to become an athlete.
This game has been compared by too many people. ESPN broadcast the game to the nation, and everyone wanted to see the rookie battle between Lee Cheng and Durant.
With such a platform and such a background, how can Durant be willing to accept defeat lightly?
His teammates around Durant can't, but God also seems to want to see who the best rookie is today, and the Pacers are in a slump except for Li Cheng. Such a game is a heavenly dueling arena, and Durant never wants to admit defeat.
Seeing that the lead he had worked hard to fight for was reduced to nothing under the offensive of the Chinese, Durant was anxious, and he was more decisive and resolute in attacking with the ball.
Durant slipped past Granger with a sliding step, and then he strode into the restricted area, barely at the angle of the layup, forced his waist force after jumping, twisted his upper body a little angle, and threw his right hand lightly. The basketball grazed the rebound and bounced off the basket.
It has to be said that it was a beautiful goal.
Durant looked at Li Cheng, which seemed to say, "You also have a sudden one?!" ”
Li Cheng chuckled and turned his head, he wouldn't be angry with his opponent at will, all he needed was to win after the game.
"Li Cheng!" Rush screamed, then threw the ball over.
When Lee was in a hot spot, the Pacers' tactics seemed to have been simplified to taking the ball across half court and passing it to Lee Cheng.
In fact, the beginning of the Pacers' tactics is to hand the ball to Li Cheng or Granger, and the two of them, plus Tinsley, form a tactical iron triangle that can play a lot of clever combinations. The small cooperation of the three of them formed the offensive tactics of the Pacers.
Li Cheng spun around after receiving the ball, then slid forward with his shoulder against Granger's side.
Stuck in position, Li Cheng jumped violently, his elbow against Durant's side ribs. His body rose to the sky, his body completely relaxed, like a soaring eagle. From the elbow to the wrist to the fingers, it is like the flapping wings of an eagle, beautiful and eye-catching.
And the basketball that flew out was like a meteor that crossed the sky above the stadium, exuding a devastating light. Finally, with the "Whew! With a bang, the meteor landed exactly at its final destination.
"Wow!"
There was an exclamation from the audience, and the fans were enjoying this beauty, this kind of beauty that can only be enjoyed in Indiana.
Li Cheng's goal helped the Pacers equalize again, and Durant pursed his lips tightly and silently ran back.
He can't guard against Li Cheng, and the walkers can't guard against him, and now the two of them are comparing who has a higher hit rate.
Li Cheng ran to Durant's side and said softly: "Shooting, sometimes, can also be beautiful." ”
Durant responded, "But I'm not just shooting. ”
"But I can win just by shooting."
"You can't win."
"We'll see!"
The rhythm of the game once again entered the rhythm of Li Cheng and Durant against Biao, Li Cheng used his accurate shots to create damage to the supersonic speed again and again, and his super high shooting rate really gave people a feeling of despair. Durant even felt that if he didn't make a shot, the score would be pulled away by 2 points.
Durant felt very stressed when playing against that Chinese.
On the sidelines, Dunleavy Jr. sat on the bench in a training uniform. He only played one minute today, and he felt like his body was already cold. The state of that Chinese is really good.
Now, he didn't want to go. Who wants to leave the city they are familiar with? The prodigal son of football is not a happy ending. And little Dunleavy's jealousy and prejudice against Li Cheng gradually disappeared.
You will be jealous when a person is only a little better than you, and when a person needs you to look up to, there will be no trace of jealousy in your heart. That's the mentality of Dunleavy Jr. now.
But Li Cheng's state is too good and too stable, if he wants to be his replacement, will he really be able to stand out again?
Little Dunleavy shook his head helplessly, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Leaving may be the best choice!" ”
In fact, Larry Bird has made Dunleavy Jr. the first target the team needs to clean up this summer.
This is the NBA, where there is only profit, and the team will never leave a player who cannot contribute to the team and has no potential to tap into.
Dunleavy Jr.'s thoughts weren't on the field until O'Brien's screams came.
"Mike, you're on." Dunleavy Jr. came to his senses and quickly took off his training clothes over his jersey. He replaced Li Cheng, and it was already the eighth minute of the second quarter of the game. Li Cheng, who scored 16 points again, was replaced at this timeout.
And when Li Cheng went off the court, Durant refused to get off the court, and he wanted to stay on the court.
"If I'm not as efficient as you, I'll make up for it with playing time and shots, and I'm going to win!" Durant looked at the 7-point difference and gritted his teeth and thought.
