Chapter Twenty-Four: A Lesson to the Man Who Calls Himself Little Iverson
After scoring points in two consecutive rounds, 41-27, the difference was further narrowed, and if the difference could be chased below 10 points before halftime, there was still a game to play in the second half.
Iguodala attacks with the ball, and although he is a striker, he can connect the team's offense and is a rare talent.
He was seen standing still at the top of the arc, and caught a glimpse of Lawson being flanked by Guy after a few changes of guard, a long one behind him.
"It's a very imaginative ball, Guy is 20 centimeters taller than Lawson and must have turned slower than him." Van Gundy nodded approvingly.
Sure enough, Lawson got into it like a loach, licked the basket with his backhand, and the ball went into the net.
He spread his arms and stuck out his tongue from the direction of Scarlett, making a sucking motion.
"Wow grass, these are too good at playing, their tongues are very fast." Li Ming walked over to Conley's side.
"Mike, let's switch defenses, you can go on offense with peace of mind." Li Ming said with certainty.
"You...... May I? Tylawon's footsteps are not slow, and his lower body strength is very strong, which is not easy to guard. ”
"It's okay, leave it to me, I'm going to break his faith."
"Okay, it's okay, then you guard first, if it doesn't work, you will change back after a few rounds, and I will help you make up for it if I can." Conley quickly ran to the opposing position.
Bayless took advantage of Chandler's distraction from inside Guy and coldly threw a three-pointer.
"Yes, yes, after all, it's a big-hearted player who has been baptized by San Antonio." Webb was referring to Bayless' miracle in last year's playoff game against the Spurs.
Tylawn got the ball down quickly, and Li Ming clung to him and let him go to the right, knowing that he didn't have a good finish on the right, and Guy was on the right, and the latter's long arm could delay his shot.
Lawson a large c
ossove
, Switched to the left, Li Ming was blocked behind him, Lawson leaned over and wanted to make a hard basket, Arthur suddenly stretched out his arm to stop in front of him.
Lawson jumped up with all his might, not to mention, there was really a shadow of Iverson in this uprooted position.
It's a pity that it's just a matter of form, and it's not a matter of two dimensions.
It was Arthur's outstretched hand that allowed Li Ming to untie Chandler's body, and he jumped up from behind, roaring and picking Lawson's ball into his arms with one hand.
You are strong, you are strong, Lao Tzu is the king. Li Ming looked coldly at Lawson, whose face was full of incredulity, and said lightly: Now is the beginning.
Then an unwatchable pass threw the ball out, and he knew Guy must be on his way to the start. In addition to Gay's big windmill dunk to vent the depression of the whole night, he also improved Li Ming's assist to three times.
Lawson didn't believe in evil, and broke away from Chandler, who stepped forward to block the demolition, yes, he was going to choose to eat Li Ming alone.
"Hehe, a little-known Chinese player dares to preach to me, who gives you confidence." He used more exaggerated body movements to interpret what it means to dribble in flashiness.
George Karl on the side shook his head helplessly, the current atmosphere in the team is just right, if he is replaced at this moment, it may affect his mood and is not conducive to unity, so he can only choose to ignore his occasional willfulness.
Li Ming was unmoved, no matter how fancy he dribbled, he just didn't move easily, Iguodala shook his head incredulously, crossed his waist and stood outside the three-point line on the right side, yes, he was a team-first player, such a thing was unbelievable in his eyes.
Even when he played next to Iverson, he chose to pass first, and he has always played such a conscientious role, although many people criticized him for his lack of leadership temperament, he did not care.
Lawson dribbled the ball alone for 20 seconds, and it was as if half a year had passed between Carl and the players on the court in those 20 seconds.
He finally chose to shoot, and it was no surprise that it was still an outside jumper, a large two-pointer, but Li Ming always covered him, like a swift leopard, fanning his shot.
Out of bounds, with 2.6 seconds left on the offensive clock, Iguodala called a timeout.
"Dude, you can't do this, you can't be fooled by them, we are leading by a big score, and getting into singles is not something smart people do." Iguodala put it mildly.
Lawson stuck out his tongue slightly apologetically and nodded frequently.
In fact, everyone knows that he will still choose to do this in the next round, he belongs to the kind of person who sincerely admits his mistakes and resolutely does not change.
Besides, he always felt that if he wanted to get it back from Li Ming, it was not only about losing points, but also about face, and the final face - how many heroes died on face.
is as strong as Han Xin, it's not the same as being trapped and dying in Weiyang Palace by Empress Lu, girl, can you still compare yourself to Han Xin?? At best, a brainless Xiahou baby.
Li Ming took the water handed over by the staff and drank it in a big gulp, his eyes never leaving the home team's bench. As for what his coach said, he didn't listen to a word.
After this timeout, the Grizzlies replaced Arthur and took Randolph, seemingly to defend their backcourt rebounds while adding a point of certainty on the offensive end.
Although Guy is fierce, he is too obsessed with singles, and his shot selection is also problematic, and he is unreliable at critical moments, so he can only play downwind.
With the referee's whistle, the Nuggets served, and Guy covered Iguodala with a pair of long arms, and with 2.6 seconds, he could only choose to shoot quickly, so the basket was the best choice.
Iguodala hoisted the ball inside just as the five-second tee time was about to expire, and Chandler failed to catch the ball under Randolph's interference, adjusted the next time, and when he tried to shoot again, the light came on and he was in violation of the 24-second violation.
Conley made a quarterback-style long pass, and after the ball fell at the top of the arc several times in a row, Bayless shook off Fournier's defense at the top of the left arc and ended the attack with another three-pointer.
"The Grizzlies' three-point opening is key and can bring out the Nuggets' interior defenders. That will make it easier for McConley in the second half. ”
"I don't know what Lawson will choose to end this offense this time."
"Lawson's breakthrough is one of the big factors in the Nuggets' dominance of the West this year, and he is a fish in water in George Carr's system." Van Gundy has a knack for using this little man.
Come on, ace guard of North Carolina, come on, I'm going to rub you to the ground one at a time.
Li Ming began to lead the defense all over the court, Lawson dodged left and right, and almost didn't pass half time in eight seconds.
"Lee's sudden pressing was uncomfortable for him, and it could affect his next shot selection." Van Gundy also wants to know the defender's resilience.
"The smartest thing for him at this point is to share the ball, and god, they have a strong forward team like Chandler and Iguodala on the team, and their athleticism is a disaster for other teams."
"But he's stuck in singles, and I bet there's one or two more rounds like that, and George Carr will put him on the bench, see."
Iguodala ran back into the box and Lawson didn't get the ball out in time, and that fleeting opportunity came to naught.
"Damn it, pass, buddy, you know the word pass, right?" Gallinari also started to get impatient, and after several rounds of switchbacks without even touching the ball, it was not a good thing for a shooter like him.
After all, he's not Ray Allen yet, he needs more touches to get warmed up, and there's still a long way to go between him and Ray Allen, or a mountain.
Li Ming began to harass Lawson with various small actions, luring him out of control and making him shoot blindly. This Lawson is really a tenacious animal, and he was really fooled, and he plunged into Li Ming's arms.
Li Ming fell down and whistled. Foul by the home team's number three.
The home of the "Ula ......" began to have some anxious sounds, and the fans were reluctant to attack with such frequent power outages.
What they need is the feeling of being running, maybe it's because of the national broadcast, Lawson's mentality is wrong, he wants to win too much, he wants to show his chance too much.
After all, this is his contract year, and he needs to put on a good performance to impress the managers sitting in the office. And the national competition is undoubtedly the best stage.
George Carr finally couldn't help but call a timeout, "Wow grass, you dare to boast that you are the second generation of Iverson?" Li Ming chased Lawson, who was walking off the field quickly, and kept nagging in his ear.
"Yo, that's kind of interesting, it reminds me of the male hippos in heat in the animal world." Webb quipped.
