Whether the mental attribute has a bonus to the player has always been a metaphysical issue.

Li Ze's simple understanding of mental attributes is the attention of a player on the field, and when you are fully engaged in the game and highly concentrated, you may perform better than usual.

In this grudge game, with the tortoise with the bonus of anger value, the attention was highly concentrated after the opening, and the defensive end was fully devoted, and every time he blocked and chased Rose, the arrival rate was very high.

The offensive performance was also exceptional, with several high-post blocks, mid-range goals, and for more than three minutes in the opening game, Turtle and Rose went back and forth, constantly responding.

The audience at the United Center Arena was happy, and the stars played each other's offensive performances, which made everyone addicted to watching, especially Rose's offense, who could deftly enter the interior every time, tossing and turning to put the ball in the basket.

Rose, who has already played high, does not call blocking and dismantling in the attack, facing the defense of the turtle turtle, after dribbling under the crotch continuously, he accelerates the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, and suddenly changes direction in front of the body during the march, and the speed does not decrease at all, and he easily enters the penalty area.

In the face of Ibaka, who came over to assist in the defense, he did not reluctantly attack, fake a real pass, and Noah under the basket easily ate the cake.

"Ahh Wow!! ”

Rose's change of direction in front of the body shocked the audience to shout, such a crossover, it is too exaggerated, the center of gravity is low, the change of direction does not slow down, as long as the first step does not follow, Rose can easily tear through the defense.

"Rose's style of play is really good-looking, and the breakthrough has a feeling of explosion, which can make the audience watch the blood boiling, and the champion of 08 is well deserved!"

Host Yang Jian immediately exclaimed after seeing Rose break through the defense and send an assist.

Turtle Turtle looked very annoyed that he didn't defend the ball, he had already predicted that Rose was going to change direction in front of his body, but his body failed to react in time, and in the end he could only watch Rose break through his defense.

"Russell, it's just a simple defensive round, calm down and keep your focus."

When serving, Li Ze hurriedly told the turtle turtle, for fear that this guy would suddenly go up again.

"I'm fine, it's just the first quarter, don't worry, Kayce."

Turtle Turtle took the ball and loudly said that he was still in good shape, and today he was reasonably calm Turtle...

On the defensive end, the Bulls finally changed their defensive strategy after being hit by the turtles in a row to the middle distance.

After the No. 5 position was blocked, Noah switched directly to the turtle, and I have to say that this energetic big man is really good on the defensive end, and the big defense can still keep up.

Seeing that there was no good opportunity, the turtle immediately gave the ball to Li Ze on the outside, and there were about 10 seconds left in the offensive time.

Li Ze held the ball in his left hand, and suddenly made an In and Out, crossed the dribble and pulled back, and made a quick stop jump shot in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line.

"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.

"Beautiful dribbling feints, Gibson was shaken and froze in place, Li Ze can hit this ball!"

After Xu Jicheng saw Li Ze score the first goal of the game, he blew it directly.

Gibson noticed that after Li Ze scored, he didn't even look at him, and immediately returned to defense, a nameless fire surged into his heart, he and Li Ze were both rookies in 09, but the attention of the two was very different.

After being drafted by the Bulls with the 26th pick in the first round, Gibson came to the team and played the role of the younger brother, and he has been playing very hard, but the media and ball critics have only praised Li Ze.

Especially ESPN, which has blown Li Ze into the sky, and the title of Jordan's successor has long been pressed on Li Ze's head.

The rookies are new to the league, and the biggest competitors are the players of the same class, Gibson saw that Li Ze had been playing beautifully, not to mention the uncomfortable energy in his heart, it was sour to death...

A few strides chased Li Ze, who returned to the defense, and Gibson shouted arrogantly:

"You don't want to score easily with me in the rest of the time!"

"What are you doing so loudly, are you also a Xiuxin from the same class as me?"

“……”

Li Ze was a little speechless, and asked back with a nonchalant face, but he didn't expect such a move, and immediately made Gibson so angry that his face turned red, this is completely ignoring him, how to say that he is also a first-round show, and everyone has taken photos together!

In the next game, the two sides alternated leads, and the interior combination of Gibson and Noah hit the Thunder enough.

The Bulls' offense is not complicated, and the rough summary is that Hinrich shoots outside, Gibson and Noah grab inside, Rose keeps breaking through, and Gibson and Noah eat cakes in a row.

Such a simple tactic easily limited the Thunder's transition offense, and every time the backcourt rebounding was protected, it had to go through a hand-to-hand fight, especially Noah, who rushed very fiercely in the frontcourt.

But the Bulls can't stop the Thunder's trio, simple cover and off-ball running, and when an opportunity arises, Durant can always shoot the ball, or catch the ball and shoot, or dummy a shot into the interior to cause damage.

The silver [Organization Core] badge made Durant's projection more stable, and Li Ze already felt that Durant in reality had begun to gradually approach the data man simulated in space.

The Thunder attacked, and after two rounds in a row, the turtle immediately handed over the ball to Li Ze after half court, and then ran to the bottom left corner to open up the offensive space, and Ibaka also sank to the bottom right corner at this time.

Durant first made an off-ball cover for Collison at the free throw line, and Kresson quickly came to the three-point line to block Li Ze.

Li Ze quickly started and broke through on the left side, when Durant suddenly bounced, Collison moved a few steps, and made a no-ball cover for Durant.

Li Ze, who broke through to the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line, noticed that Durant had gotten rid of Lore Deng's entanglement and was bouncing outward, and immediately sent a diagonal pass with his left hand, and when the ball arrived, Durant did not adjust when he received the ball, and made a jump shot outside the three-point line.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

"Squeak..."

After seeing Durant score again, head coach Vinnie De Nagro finally couldn't take it anymore and asked for a timeout again.

The Thunder played the same tactic twice, Li Ze had assisted Durant to cut to the dunk before, and this time he came with a three-pointer from the outside, and the head coach was very unhappy with Lore Deng's two defenses.

"Good pass, Kayce, it's right in my shooting rhythm after receiving the ball, and the 3 points can split you in half."

During the timeout, Durant and Li Ze bumped fists, and having such a passer made his scoring much easier.

"I don't lose an assist, Shet! Are the Bulls crazy inside? Crazy impact backcourt rebounding, the opening has not had a chance to switch offense until now. ”

Li Ze drank water and complained about the situation on the field.

Coach Brooks didn't talk about offensive deployment, and began to emphasize the protection of rebounding:

"We played really well, we continued to protect the rebound, we had to get in the position early, Ibaka, you have to pay attention to that, don't let Noah get close to the basket easily."

"After receiving the rebound, make a good pass, Russell, switch offense to attack the basket resolutely, the Bulls' foul is about to make free throws, we have to speed up and hold on to the boys."

Turtle Gui nodded calmly, he seemed to have entered another state in this game, handling the ball reasonably, shooting efficiently, not steaming steamed buns to fight for breath, he really wanted to win this game today.

For the remainder of the first quarter, the two sides began to play iron frequently, and the Bulls strengthened their defensive oppression, and the United Center Arena was their home court, and with the blessing of the home whistle, many small actions would not be whistled for fouls.

Coupled with the fact that Rose always rushes in like a bag of explosives, this makes the Thunder have no long rebounds at all, and every time they protect a backcourt rebound, everyone will grab a ball.

By the end of the first quarter, the two sides were tied at 24, and the Thunder had no whistle bonus and scored more than 30 points.

Rose was 4 of 7 in the first quarter, scored 8 points, and the 4 goals were very exciting, this guy didn't want to make fouls at all, all of them were shaking off the defense, pulling the rod to make a layup, but with a little skill, he could make at least two more free throws.

Turtle Turtle scored 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting in the first quarter, except for one break, the rest were all mid-range near the free throw line, and the defense gave shots, and Turtle Turtle scored almost all of them.

Taking advantage of the break between the festivals, in the CCTV studio, the hosts Yang Jian and Xu Jicheng also briefly summarized the performance of the two sides in the first quarter.

"The Bulls' style of play is somewhat restrained by the Thunder, Noah grabbed three frontcourt rebounds in the first quarter, and the interior combination of him and Gibson is difficult for the Thunder to have a chance to switch offense, Coach Xu, what adjustments do you think the Thunder should make in the next game?"

The host Yang Jian saw that the Thunder team did not play well in the first quarter, so he helped the Thunder fans ask a question that everyone was concerned about.

"I think the Thunder team played well, especially the protection of rebounding in the backcourt, and this must be implemented in the later games, Li Ze and Durant should strengthen some outside long shots, and when they burst into the interior, the referee will not blow the whistle many times."

"The Thunder still have to try to seize some opportunities to switch offense, this is their magic weapon to win, and the current rhythm of the game is what the Bulls like, let's see how the next rotation lineup will play!"

Xu Jicheng is right, the Thunder's rotation at this time is already stretched, Brooks head coach has always been a little conservative about the rotation, and this game is no exception, but Itang Thomas on the bench is mentioned in the rotation lineup.

After the start of the second quarter of the game, Li Ze on the Thunder's side played the No. 3 position, Meno and Sofrosa partnered in the backcourt, Ibaka and Thomas protected the interior, and the Bulls were also in the short rotation, Rose and Noah were replaced, and John Salmons and Tyrus Thomas were replaced in the opposite position.

The Thunder team attacked, Li Ze used Ibaka's back cover to receive the ball outside the three-point line, Lore Deng chased very tightly, squeezed through the cover, put a small step, raised his hands, and tried to defend Li Ze with his height advantage.

Noticing the opponent's defense, after Li Ze received the ball, he dribbled under his crotch on the spot, suddenly pulled back with a cross step in his right hand, and beat his left hand.

At this time, Li Ze quickly changed direction in front of his body, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, and Li Ze suddenly paused during the march, twisted his body backwards, and shook Lohr Deng's center of gravity to move backwards, feeling that the defense on his side was loosened, and Li Ze rushed to make a light low-handed layup before Gibson's defense was in place.

The two-point shot went up steadily.

Seeing Luol Deng's depressed expression, Li Ze smiled slightly, his strength training is not in vain, his current ability to control his body is obviously stronger than at the beginning of the season, and such a change in rhythm is even more handy.

The most important thing is that Li Ze's body coordination is very good, whether it is the same hand and foot, or a normal low-handed layup, Li Ze can easily complete it, which allows him to launch an attack on the blue frame at any time after the breakthrough, and Luol Deng just didn't keep up with Li Ze's rhythm before he was easily broken through.

In the first half of the second quarter, Li Ze completely turned on the individual offensive mode, breaking Lohr Deng and Gibson into a sieve, many times Li Ze did not completely pass the defense of the two, but as long as he was stuck half a body, it was difficult for the two to restrain Li Ze.

Especially Li Ze's left and right hands In and Out, this kind of small trick in the march made Gibson suffer, and every time he was shaken into a wooden stake, this is also a technical action that Li Ze has frequently used recently, which is very effective for big men.

After the Bulls' Tyrus Thomas missed a couple of strong shots under the basket, the Thunder easily took a four-point lead.

With the addition of the silver [Defensive Core] badge, Ibaka's defense has become more and more solid, and although it can't compare with some strong teams' starting interior lines, it can occasionally play some bright performances.

The Bulls attacked, and after blocking and dismantling, Gibson received a ground-hitting pass from Hinrich and wanted to directly make a one-arm dunk, but Ibaka was faced with a big hat by the help defense!

"Ahh He fouled! ”

Gibson screamed, lost his center of gravity, staggered to the floor, and complained loudly to the linesman, but the referee signaled the game to continue, and after Li Ze controlled the ball, he immediately pushed the transition attack.

The Bulls' retreat was very fast, and Lore Deng found Li Ze as soon as possible, wanting to use his body to fight against Li Ze's advance speed, Li Ze sensed the opponent's intentions, and was not greedy for the ball, and immediately passed to Meno.

After the latter received the ball, he dribbled two steps to Sofrosa again, and the Bulls' basket was completely empty, and Sofloza made an easy layup, which was the Thunder's first transition offense in this game.

"Excellent three-line fast break, the Thunder's ball transfer is fantastic, I didn't expect the rotation lineup to lead by 6 points, and the next game should be easier."

After Xu Jicheng saw the Thunder team leading, he sang praises again.

Coach De Nagro called a timeout, he didn't expect his rotation to play so poorly, he couldn't attack and defend, and he was going to get back to the starting line-up early.

Brooks also replaced Li Ze and Ibaka off the court, temporarily playing a small lineup, hoping to last a few minutes, but after this lineup came on the court, two outside three-pointers failed to grasp, and the Bulls began to pinch Durant.

Fortunately, at this time, the turtle stepped up, first received a pass from Durant, broke through in an instant, caused a foul on Noah, and made two free throws to help the team stabilize the situation, and then two consecutive high-post blocking tactics, all scored in the middle distance.

Especially in the second ball, in the face of Rose's defense, he first used the block to get rid of Rose's entanglement, and his left hand suddenly pulled back under his hip during the march, and his right hand quickly changed direction in front of his body, shaking off the chasing Rose and scoring a quick stop jump shot.

"Roar!!"

After the goal, Turtle yelled at Rose, showing his tough attitude.

"Shh

Seeing the turtle provoking the star of his team, the audience at the United Center Arena immediately sent a huge boo.

Rose still maintained his facial paralysis expression, not making a sound, but on the offensive end began to strengthen his breakthrough, facing the turtle's defense, after dribbling under the crotch, the continuous body change direction, the range of action is small, but the speed is too fast, and the turtle turtle is passed at once.

After rushing to the restricted area, he took off, dodged the defense of Nick Collison and Etang Thomas, and from right to left, after pulling the rod widely, he picked up the basket with his left hand and hit the high board to send the ball to the basket.

"Ahh Wow!! ”

Such a bells and whistles layup ignited the enthusiasm of the audience in the United Center Arena at once, and first erupted into huge cheers, and the defensive round also began to shout for the home team:

“Defense！ Defense！ Defense！ ”

Li Ze sat on the bench and was a little dumbfounded when he saw Rose twisting his waist in the air to score the ball, this is not a pull-up and he won't go to the basket, sometimes it may be better to touch the porcelain directly, but he also has to admit that playing like this is really handsome, and it can really boost the morale of the home team.

Coach Brooks saw that the team temporarily withstood the opponent's counterattack, and in the second quarter, he planned to let Li Ze rest well and retain more physical energy for the second half.

At halftime, 52-48, the Thunder took a four-point lead.

At halftime, in the Thunder locker room, head coach Brooks stood in front of the whiteboard and directly began to explain the tactics of the second half of the game.

"Great half-court play, guys, we held the backcourt rebounds and didn't let the Bulls play the secondary offense that they are good at, but in the second half on the offensive end we need to strengthen our outside shooting, especially three-point shooting."

"In the first half, we only shot 6 times from outside the three-point line, hitting 2 shots, this kind of outside firepower is far from enough, Kayce, Kevin, whether it's a three-point shot after a cover, or a three-point shot in a single game, I need you to shoot the ball on the outside!"

"We're going to play our own rhythm, reduce our positional offense, and at the same time, continue to protect our backcourt rebounding, and after this game, back in Russia, we can play four home games in a row, come on, boys!"

"Oh yes!"

The temptation to go home, the excitement of the Thunder team everyone screamed, Li Ze also quietly handed Durant a provocative look, signaling the second half to compare, Durant shook his head and smiled, put up four fingers, indicating that he could shoot 4 three-pointers.

Turtle Turtle, who entered the focus mode, didn't notice the small movements of the two, and he shouted excitedly:

"Guys, it's up to me, I'm going to lock up Rose in the second half!"

......

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Thunder attacked, after the turtle dribbled through the half, Li Ze immediately smoked in the bottom corner, and played a double screen tactic for Durant at the beginning, with two covers from Collison and Ibaka, Durant received the ball at 45 degrees on the right side outside the three-point line, and then pulled up and shot.

"Huh..."The three-pointer hit steadily.

Last season, Durant's shooting rate was 47.6% and his three-point shooting rate was 42.2%.

At the beginning of the new season, under the addition of Li Ze's [organizational core] badge, Durant's shooting rate is close to 50%, and although the three-point shooting rate has dropped a little, it is currently maintained at about 38%.

After throwing this ball, Durant raised a finger and signaled to Li Ze that this was the first shot.

The Bulls attacked, and Lore Deng got rid of Durant's defense with Gibson's blocking, and shot a mid-range pull-up jump shot.

"Bang...", he was angry.

Collison stuck Noah behind him, successfully protected the rebound in the backcourt, and immediately passed it to Li Ze next to him, noticing that the Bulls retreated very quickly, and Li Ze was not in a hurry, and slowly dribbled through the half.

Hinrich defended Li Ze in front of him, and wanted Li Ze to play the ball early, but his defense was too big, Li Ze suddenly changed direction under the crotch of his left hand in the middle of the march, and quickly dribbled the ball behind his back with his right hand, and then took a large step back to the three-point line and jumped directly.

"Huh..."juggling projection, three-point shot hollow into the net.

"Oh!! Wow! ”

The audience at the United Center Arena let out a burst of exclamations, what is the situation, just after halftime throwing a three-pointer, and the result is still in?

Xin Li Qi also looked at Li Ze with a confused expression, the speed of this action was too fast, and when he came back to his senses and wanted to defend, Li Ze had already made a move...

"Li Ze's three-point shot? Score!! This ball is full of imagination, the movement is too smooth, I guess the Bulls players didn't react, it's too powerful, Durant and Li Ze hit a three-pointer each, and the difference was 10 points! ”

After the host Yang Jian saw Li Ze throw in this three-point shot, he immediately praised loudly.

As soon as the point difference reached double digits, the Bulls players were a little anxious, after all, they were in a hurry with three points, and the point difference was big, and it was too difficult to chase the points.

Collison once again collected the backcourt rebound, and after the turtle received the ball, Li Ze signaled everyone to slow down, after all, the Bulls had fully retreated.

In this defensive round, the Bulls showed 12 points of strength to everyone, accelerated the speed of defensive rotation, desperately chased defense, and failed to play several tactics.

There were 10 seconds left in the attack time, and the turtle turtle changed back and immediately rushed into the penalty area, but Noah's horizontal speed was fast, and the turtle felt that it must be covered.

Li Ze took the pot one step away from the three-point line, paying attention to the offensive time, and did not hesitate to shoot three points from a long distance and jump shot.

"Huh...", the three-pointer went in again.

After the goal, Li Ze looked calm, pretending to be X with his hands raised high, and slowly retreated, but he shouted luck in his heart: fortunately, he received the ball on the left side outside the three-point line, and the combination of the two badges of [Hot Zone Hunter] + [Catch-and-Shoot Player] is really hard to say...

Perhaps it was this three-point shot that angered the Bulls, and in the next game, the opponent stepped on the three-point line to defend, and with the bonus of the home whistle, the small movements of pulling continued, resolutely not to project the outside of the Thunder.

But the score difference is always around 10 points, Li Ze is the rhythm of the dripping god, the offense does not make mistakes, the iron is back to defense, the defensive end of the turtle is like playing chicken blood, finally to win over Rose, he is excited!

By the end of the third quarter, 78-68, the Thunder still led by ten points, and the Bulls' outside projection was really stretched, and there was no conversion offense, and it was difficult to chase points...

In the 4th quarter of the game, the main forces of the two sides followed, and the turtle of the grievance game broke out again, 3 unreasonable emergency stop mid-range, and once again opened up the difference, Rose was obviously broken defense, and the offensive end became more and more impatient, trying to shoot a mid-range jumper but still hitting the iron.

After the long rebound popped up this time, Li Ze easily accepted it, and immediately found the turtle who was going down quickly, and after the latter received the ball, he accelerated wildly, carried away the chasing Rose, and took off directly, with a one-armed tomahawk explosion!

"Bang..."Convert offense and dunk.

"Ahh

The excited turtle screamed, and a bad breath grew in his heart, he was finally going to win over Rose!

"Shhhhh

Li Ze heard the huge boos that erupted from the United Center Arena, and smiled in his heart:

"This game is a win! In the first grudge game of the new season, the turtle turtle temporarily led 1-0, and the feeling of brother basketball was really good! ”
