The Jazz exposed their problems during the bench rotation phase. - There is no good sixth man on the bench.

Millsap, a later All-Star, is now just a rookie who has just started his second season, averaging only 8.2 points per game and only a half-volley basket, which makes it rare for the Lakers not to let the opponent score too many points in the bench rotation stage.

Since Li Wan entered the starting lineup, the Lakers have met the top four teams in the East and West, and it is normal for them to fall behind by four or five points when they leave the starting lineup.

At 3:14 in the second quarter of this game, when both sides changed to the starting lineup, the Lakers only trailed by 2 points, and the bench even recovered 1 point for them.

"Well done!"

Bryant once again showed his "winning, grinning" side, high-fiveing his teammates off the court.

Elegant, easy-going and kind!

Deron Williams was still in the second half of the first quarter.

As soon as the second quarter came up, Li Wan completed a breakthrough layup and scored the ball.

Rubbing his aching chest, Li Wan finally understood why some people called Deron Williams "the LeBron of the No. 1 position".

This kind of tank-like collision is indeed not something that a No. 1 position can have.

"Rookie, do you see? That's the difference between you and me! ”

Delon gestured first at the top of his head and then at his own knee.

"I'm here, and you're here!"

Just now, during the break, he had been holding back his energy to prepare trash talk, and he had prepared several, and as soon as he succeeded, he immediately squirted at Li Wan.

"Becoming an Immortal"

A triumphant expression.

Li Wan smiled and shook his head: "Delong, do you know how many meters above sea level in Utah?" 1340 meters! ”

“？？？”

Delong was made into a "Nick Young" face by Li Wan's cold words.

How do you suddenly say the altitude of Utah?

"I don't play basketball, and I want to change my career to a local science teacher?"

Li Wan smiled, didn't say anything, gave the ball to Kobe, and then quickly ran without the ball, Delong didn't follow at the first time, Li Wan's no-ball feint in the first quarter played him, he is still impressed, and saw that he really ran with strength, so he quickly followed.

However, when he crossed the line, he let Kwame Brown block it solidly.

Li Wan ran out of the empty position, the ball flew from Kobe's hand, Li Wan, who held the ball, raised his hand and was about to throw, but Kirilenko, who came to make up for the defense, actually didn't pounce.

After yesterday's training game, Sloan specifically mentioned when explaining the tactics that after the Chinese newcomer ran without the ball and received the ball, he liked to use a shooting feint to mobilize the opponent's center of gravity first, and then start to break through......

Kirilenko is obviously a "top student", and he took the words of the old man to heart.

Li Wan, who noticed that he did not pounce forward, simply shot directly and scored 2 points.

Another month passed, and Li Wan's mid-range shooting ability value officially broke through the 70 mark and came to 71 points.

Now, without interference, even if there is a change in the pace of shooting, it will not have much impact.

Moreover, Kirilenko was stunned for a moment, making sure that he was going to shoot before he pounced, giving Li Wan time to adjust.

One more ......

With a difference of 2 points, Li Wan's "strong heart" badge is lit up!

“fxxk！”

Sloane scolded unsurprisingly.

"What are you hesitating about?"

Kirilenko is very aggrieved, obviously you said, the Chinese newcomer may fake the real sudden, don't rush forward too hard, or jump.

Now again......

Wow, old man's mouth!

Delon once again held the ball and burst strongly, Li Wan was never a person who stood in place and was beaten passively, and quickly called people to wrap up, this time it was Delon who was in the state, he had been paying attention to Boozer's movements, and the Lakers gave the ball to Boozer as soon as he was in the bag.

Odom follows out to defend Oku.

Boozer singled out Kwame Brown for a pick-up.

“fxxk you！”

Kwame-Brown scolded.

The "anti-bone boy" looked confused, you scored, just scold, why did I score, you still scolded!

This should be my celebration "time"!

Delong stared at Li Wan, what the rookie said just now, he didn't understand what it meant for a long time, and he was embarrassed to ask, so he could only wait with such a blank eye.

*!

I hate this kind of half-talker the most!

The Lakers continued to give the ball to Kobe, Li Wan continued to run without the ball, he who had just easily got rid of Delon, this time the continuous reverse run, once again threw DeLong away.

At the peak of Delong, in the case of Boozer on the offensive end, Li Wan really can't limit his play, even if he calls his brother, he is only barely a little disturbing.

Phil Jackson was also well aware of this, so he took a different approach.

Li Wan annoyed Delong so much, this guy definitely doesn't want to see Li Wan score, so let him spend some energy on the defensive end!

Like most "heavy guards," DeLong's footwork on the defensive end is problematic.

What's more, Jerry Sloan's UCLA system spoils him for choice, and he can let people leak and leave the defense to someone else.

For example...... Kirilenko.

Can......

That's in the face of other people's situations!

Facing Li Wan, a hateful rookie, he really doesn't want to see this guy score!

However, Li Wan's footsteps in the movement without the ball are obviously much better than him.

The first time he could say that he didn't pay attention to the sudden change of play on the other side, but this time he was thrown away so easily, and Delong's face began to burn.

Watching Li Wan take the ball outside the three-point line again, he turned around and was about to shoot.

Delong was in a hurry, and he didn't know where a force came from, and the whole person rushed over.

"Bang dang" sounded!

Li Wan's projection missed, looking at Delong who was in a hurry, he smiled: "Don't worry, this is also very difficult for me!" ”

Delong:......

No!

If you didn't put it in, you can pretend to compare, right?

And also......

You just said what you are doing with altitude, but you continue to talk about it!

Curiosity is anxious to kill Delon.

Oku protected the rebound, but his slow ball protection made Kobe, who was incarnated as the "old six", find an opportunity and slapped it down.

Kwame Brown grabbed the ball.

Kobe Bryant found it hard to believe that Kwame Brown could actually hold the ball!

It was even harder for him to believe that the first person he looked for after this man got the ball was actually Li Wan?

WTF！

How long has he been with you?

Don't remember all the encouragement I gave you?

In order to take care of your fragile heart, I scolded you quieter than everyone else!

This rookie has only been here for a few months?

In the incomprehensible gaze of "Mamba", Li Wankong cut and caused Oku's foul.

Oku was annoyed, this ball was not what he wanted to block, but when Li Wan rushed in, his pace was too slow to jump.

Li Wan asked with his eyes: Now, do you know how miserable it is to be targeted for slow steps?

Oku is actually slow, but he has a three-point hand to mobilize Yao Ming.

This shows how important it is for the center to be able to score three points!

The invective at the scene shook the sky, and the audience was full of firepower all the time, which is the characteristic of Salt Lake City's "Devil's Home Field".

Utah is a depressing city, and these fans seem to want to vent their dissatisfaction before entering the stadium.

Li Wan hit both free throws in the hustle and bustle, and glanced at Delong in the retreat.

DeLong had anticipation in his eyes, did he want to say it? Are you going to say it?

Scold me!

Scold me!

Forehead......

In order to know why Levan said the altitude of Utah, Delon went crazy......

But Li Wan still only smiled, waiting for him to attack with the ball again.

Oh yes!

Cursed in his heart, Delong broke through the ball to Kirilenko on the outside, and "AK47" finally rushed once, putting the ball into the basket with a long arm.

It's really put!

It's the kind of way to make a move that can be buckled, but you have to put it down gently......

The long arms are fully extended, and it is really a "gibbon".

Li Wan felt that Kirilenko could usually walk with two hands!

Get the ball in the backcourt, switch between offense and defense on both sides, Kobe Bryant in the front court once again arc the ball, he hit one unexpectedly, "bang", the ball bounced into Oku's hands, this time he learned to be obedient, and held the ball in his arms with both hands.

The Jazz's counterattack opportunity, Delon advanced very fast, the Lakers still intercepted his offense on the outside, slightly stabilized a hand, Boozer cut in, Delon gave the ball slowly, and the two made mistakes.

Sloane cursed again.

Such a good opportunity to counterattack was actually wasted.

DeLong tugged at his jersey with an agitated expression.

No......

What the hell is he going to say!

What answered him was the back of Li Wan running, Kobe Bryant came with a sudden through ball this time, Li Wan just entered the inside line and put the ball into the basket accurately.

"Black Mamba" has the ability to pass the ball, but it depends on whether he wants to pass it or not.

Again, he is really not a good organizer.

The first thought of getting the ball at the No. 1 position is to observe the position of my teammates, and Kobe's first thought is for me to put this damn ball in the basket......

6 points!

Three minutes into the second quarter, before he knew it, Li Wan had scored 6 points, with an average of 2 points per minute.

This efficiency ......

Letting him run without the ball is obviously a good idea.

The Jazz didn't expect Lee Wan to suddenly play without the ball......

After all, this guy has been the Lakers' chief point guard since December, and the off-ball ability he showed in the first month has gradually been forgotten.

Now that I take it out coldly, the damage caused is a bit big!

Sloan quickly called a timeout.

The best thing to do now is to change someone to defend Li Wan, and Delong really can't keep up.

But at this time, substitutions and defense ......

Sloan glanced at DeLong's expression, this little fat man really didn't want to.

"More double blocks!"

Sloan thought about it, then ensure the efficiency of the offensive end first.

Speaking of which, the Lakers didn't have Bynum tonight, and the Jazz should have the advantage on the inside, but they didn't put too many tactical endpoints on the inside.

There are many reasons for this......

Among them, the most important thing is that Delong wants to prove his ability in this game, not a rookie like Li Wan can touch porcelain!

This is equivalent to saying that from the beginning......

The Jazz are in the set!

However, the adjustment still had an effect, and Delon cooperated more resolutely with Boozer, and a classic block was followed, and Boozer put a basket to complete the score.

Before he knew it, Boozer's score in this game had reached double figures.

He wanted to find Delon to give a high-five, and this assist was beautiful.

But Delong's eyes had long been chasing Li Wan.

What do you want to do when you suddenly say the altitude of Utah!

Delong followed very closely, and Li Wan, who noticed this, immediately hung up fifth gear and soared, and Delong followed behind him, with such a single-minded expression.

At this moment, only Li Wan's back was left in Delong's eyes!

Well?

Why is this back getting closer and closer?

Well?

How did he turn around and jump.

Got the ball?

I*!

"Phew!"

"Both!"

In the collision, Li Wan raised his hand indiscriminately, and was judged by the referee to be a shot, even if the ball was deflected to 108,000 miles, it still gave him two free throws.

The fans at the scene immediately stopped!

Impulsively, I threw a bottle of mineral water, and then there were at least 3 spectators who were asked to go out!

Unexpectedly, the referee on duty was also a violent temper, and added Delong's foul, which was upgraded to a malicious foul.

DeLong was a little confused, I didn't say a word!

Referee: You didn't say it, but you have more than 10,000 mouths!

Anyway, he was sentenced!

At that time, Li Wan fell directly to the ground, and there was no problem if he really wanted to make a technical foul.

Just now, the referee still gave the home whistle, which is an ordinary foul.

25,000 dollars, just like that.

Delong looked at the "ancestors" who were still chattering, and couldn't help but cry in his heart: It is my blessing to have you!

He was really convinced!

"How many points?"

"8 points!"

"You're coming, aren't you?"

"It's coming!"

"Looking forward to it?"

"I'm looking forward to it!"

This happened on the Lakers bench, between the two Phils, an unpretentious conversation.

Li Wan scored points continuously, and the frequency is getting faster and faster, in their opinion, this is the trend of "nerves"!

Since Li Wan entered the starting lineup, he has been "nervous" less and less, but this is understandable, after all, he has more things to do and can no longer focus only on scoring.

Physical fitness is a problem in itself......

Therefore, they are not disappointed.

But......

When Li Wan showed signs of "nerves", they were still extremely looking forward to it.

The scoring show of Chinese newcomers can't be seen enough.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Two free throws were solidly hit, and it was the Lakers who had the ball and served in the half.

Li Wan stepped on small steps, and Delong looked at his appearance, and he couldn't judge for a while.

Kobe Bryant actively moved to ask for the ball, and after taking the ball, he even stepped past Kirilenko, who was clinging to him.

This ball is also "AK47" too ambitious, and when Odom serves, he suddenly feels like he can cut this ball.

As a result of his recklessness, Kobe Bryant broke through easily.

DeLong was the closest person to Kobe, hesitated for a moment and didn't move, but seeing that Kobe was about to enter the three-point line, he still moved towards Kobe.

As soon as he moved, Kobe Bryant immediately handed over the ball, Li Wan raised his hand and fell, and scored three points......

11 points!

11 points!

"Is the newcomer in China soaring?"

Jerry Sloan listened to the almost nonsense sigh of the assistant teacher next to him, and his weather-beaten face was also a little moved, and his eyes with obvious bags and deep sunken eye sockets couldn't help but narrow.

The first time I watched this little newcomer play on the sidelines, the shock it brought him was a bit big.

He wasn't a rookie guy, and even Deron Williams played nearly 40 games off the bench in his first season at the time.

This is not only him, but also Phil Jackson and Larry Brown.

Larry Brown: This problem is the most serious.

However, now, looking at the high-spirited Li Wan on the court, he probably understands why Phil Jackson trusts Li Wan so much.

This kind of performance, even the most rigid head coach, can not be ignored.

This guy ......

11 points?

DeLong also noticed in hindsight at this time that Li Wan's score had unconsciously surpassed him.

"Come on, come on, let's guard against this group of bitches on the other side!"

"There's a 10-point advantage right away!"

Li Wan shouted back to defend himself, his expression was flamboyant, stimulating the Utah on the sidelines.

The boos still filled the entire arena, but it was obvious that the confidence of these guys was no longer so sufficient.

"Wow...... Plum! ”

In a hotel in Memphis, Mike Conley was watching this game, and when he saw this time, he couldn't help but shake his head and look at the strong man next to him.

The strong man's dark skin, with his forehead lines like the bark of an ancient tree, is none other than Greg Auden.

Tomorrow, January 1, 2008, the Trail Blazers will challenge Memphis away, the two of them finished eating, and there was nothing to do in the small place of Memphis, remembering that there was a game of Li Wan tonight, and they came back to the hotel.

I just saw Li Wan start to score points......

Mike Conley looked at Oden, and Oden was also looking at Conley, and after staring at each other for a few seconds, Conley spoke first: "Lee really sacrificed too much in college!" ”

Right now......

After seeing Li Wan's increasingly frequent crazy performances, he believed that Li Wan was originally very strong, but he was just sacrificing for the team.

This point of view is not only him, but also put forward by many media.

Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why he has improved so much in most of the year!

In addition, he only started playing basketball in his third year of high school, which has also been repeatedly mentioned by the media.

In short, Li Wan's performance is too different from the NCAA, first of all, excluding his rapid strength in the past half a year, there are only two possibilities: first, Li Wan is a genius; Second, Li Wan ran in for the Ohio team to win the championship and sacrificed too many personal scenes.

Although the second point is difficult to understand, it can only be understood in this way.

As a result, Li Wan reaped another batch of tears from Ohio.

"Lee, what a good brother for us!"

Amid Oden's exclamation, Li Wan broke through again to make a kill and won two free throws.

As Li Wan kept scoring, and the whistle kept blowing, the Jazz team was also a bit chaotic.

Don't stretch out your hand when you should reach out, and stretch your hand straight when you shouldn't.

With only 30 seconds left in the second quarter, these two free throws were made, and Leewan's single-quarter score would come to 13 points, and the Lakers' lead would come to 10 points.

Li Wan and his teammates high-fived each other, walked towards the free throw line, passed by Delong, followed his example just now, compared the position above his head, put it on his chest, and said: "You think you are here, but in fact you are here......"

"You think I'm ...... here"

He stretched out his other hand, first bent down to make a gesture to his knee, and then raised his hand to his chest as well, but slightly above the level of his other hand.

"But I'm here!"

Then he walked to the free throw line and calmly scored those two free throws.

He scored 13 points in a single quarter!

The Lakers' lead is officially 10 points!

Delong's ears rang again with Li Wan's trash talk, which was the second half of what he had always wanted to know:

"Utah is too high!"

"Man, you've been in the plateau too long......"

"If you look down, you will find that the rookie can climb up much faster than you think!"
