Chapter 190: The Silent United Center Arena (9000 Words Chapter)
A large part of the gap between the strong team and the weak team is the control of the number of turnovers, and on the Thunder's side, Durant has the least number of turnovers, after all, on the offensive end, he plays the role of a finisher.
Li Ze and Turtle will have almost 5 turnovers in a game, plus the number of mistakes of other teammates, the Thunder averaged 12.1 turnovers per game last season, and they are definitely among the best in terms of controlling turnovers.
This season's Thunder team has naturally continued this state, and has maintained a very low turnover count since the start of the game, which is also the only magic weapon for them to win, and tonight's Warriors experienced the Thunder's control of the game in the first quarter.
Stephen Curry was replaced by head coach Keith Smart with 3 minutes and 45 seconds left in the first quarter, and Curry shot 1-of-2 from the field and got 2 points, 1 rebound and 2 turnovers, and Curry was naturally very dissatisfied with his performance.
Back on the bench, Curry covered his head with a towel and silently watched the Thunder's score continue to rise.
At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors scored only 17 points and made five turnovers, all of which were easily converted by the Thunder, which also made the Thunder score 36 points in the first quarter.
The crowd at Ford Center Arena shouted excitedly when they saw the game being one-sided, and the atmosphere in the stadium was about to reach its climax during the break.
The members of the atmosphere group of the Warriors were very surprised to see the huge point difference in the first quarter, Jeremy Lin watched Li Ze play in the front row for the first time, and almost dropped his jaw, is this still a rookie? Is this really a yellow race?
"Stephen, get ready to play, I don't want to see you make another mistake as a controller, keep your spirits up, there are still three quarters left in the game, defend well, we still have a chance to turn the game around!"
Coach Keith Smart asked for a timeout in the first quarter, but he still couldn't stop the hot-handed Thunder, and Durant's playing time was not limited, and the game was spent in one quarter.
Stephen Curry was a little irritated when he heard the head coach's words, and then thought that the Warriors were already behind by a large score, so he decided to finish it directly after he got on the court, and he didn't care about the number of turnovers at all.
In the second quarter of the game, the Warriors took the lead in attacking, Curry used David Lee's high post to block and get rid of Li Ze's entanglement, and just dribbled a step outside the three-point line at the top of the arc.
The two-point ball hollowed into the net.
The Warriors came up to take the lead, but the Thunder team was not affected in any way, the point difference was too big, and quickly sent out the baseline ball, Li Ze slowly dribbled through the half court, and the non-draft player Jeff Adrien, who came off the bench, stared closely at Li Ze's movements, he wanted to complete the task assigned by the head coach.
Li Ze saw that the opponent's defense was very close, and immediately made an offensive gesture to his teammates, signaling that there was no need to block and dismantle, at the top of the arc, holding the ball in his left hand, twice in place, after dribbling the ball under his crotch, he suddenly lowered his body's center of gravity, lowered his shoulders to the left, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand.
Jeff Adrien was also prepared, quickly slid backwards, when Li Ze broke through to the paint area, his left foot was the axis, and the ball was pulled back sharply with his right hand, and then his body twisted, quickly closed the ball, and made a shooting feint.
After flying to defend, he took advantage of the opponent's fall, met his body, and then shot a mid-range jumper.
"Squeak..."
"Hmm..."
When the whistle sounded, Li Ze easily scored 2+1, and the Ford Center Arena immediately cheered loudly for Li Ze's goal, and Li Ze naturally noticed Jeff Adrien's depressed expression, and immediately comforted him:
"Good defense, man, next time remember not to be fooled into getting up, I suggest you stand still and raise your hands so you can watch me throw a backward jumper."
“......”
Jeff Adrien was completely speechless when he heard the advice given by Li Ze standing at the free throw line, if he didn't do his best on the defensive end, the head coach might replace him in two rounds, but when he thought that he had tried his best to defend, he was easily beaten into 2+1, and his heart was even more depressed.
Li Zejia hit a free throw, the Warriors quickly sent a baseline ball, Curry was already in attack mode at this time, and after half the court, he got rid of Li Ze's entanglement again through blocking and dismantling, and in the face of Ibaka, who switched defenses, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, suddenly turned to the basket in the middle of the march, and picked up the basket with his left hand.
"Smack!!"
Curry originally felt that he was in great shape, and when he was thinking about the easy two-point hand, he was chased by Li Ze behind him, and Collison, who was under the basket, controlled the ball and quickly passed the ball to Li Ze, and the Thunder launched a conversion offense again.
Li Ze accelerated with all his strength with the ball in his right hand, first made a coquettish big turn, instantly passed Reggie Williams, who came on as a substitute, and then changed direction in front of his left hand, dodging Jeff Adrien, who was saved.
"Oh!"
At this time, the Warriors' defense was only David Lee, who retreated quickly, and Li Ze, who was traveling at high speed, shook his right wrist at this time and made a feint to hit the ground and pass.
At the moment when the basketball rebounded, he directly closed the ball, his body shook, and his dexterous European steps shook David Lee in place, and watched Li Ze pick up the basket with his left hand.
"Three people in a row! Kayce has once again shown her excellent combination of balls! Oh my God, how the hell did he make this series of offensive moves, which will definitely be selected as one of the top 10 balls of the day! ”
After the home commentator Tewin saw Li Ze score the ball, he instantly raised the volume of his commentary and directly turned on Li Ze's blowing mode.
And Curry, who chased the defense to the halfcourt, saw Li Zezheng high-fived and celebrated with the audience in the front row, and a huge sense of powerlessness suddenly emerged in his heart, how should the game be played?
Coach Keith Smart frowned as he watched from the sidelines, this was his first time playing against the Thunder, it was more difficult than he thought, the two teams were not at the same level on both ends of the floor at all, and he must admit that he was overly optimistic before the game...
Once the point difference came to 20+, there was no suspense about the outcome of the game, and the Thunder team also reduced some of their defensive intensity, and then the two sides started a battle against each other, and the scene became extremely lively, and the Russian fans on the scene were also completely excited.
In the second half, almost all of the game was reduced to garbage time, and the Thunder's coaching staff just asked Durant to find a good feeling for the game, and it was not until more than 4 minutes of play in the fourth quarter that the two sides completely replaced the water cooler players.
"Kevin! In good shape! It looks like your ankle has fully recovered, and seriously, you should probably opt for mid-top basketball shoes! ”
Li Ze, who was sitting on the bench, bumped fists with Durant, who had just come off the court, and couldn't help but comfort when he saw the other party wearing the low-top sneakers again.
"Don't worry! Kayce, the last injury was just an accident, I don't like shoes that are too bulky, that would affect my breakthrough direction, and it would be nice if all the teams had the same offensive rhythm as the Warriors. ”
In this game, Durant scored 28 points again, and a large number of switching offenses is his favorite rhythm of the game.
"It's a pity that the next game will definitely turn into hand-to-hand combat, I don't like to go to Chicago to play away at all, the Bulls have been in good form lately, and they have played a winning streak, and I can often see the media praise Rose recently!"
Turtle Turtle has been paying attention to Rose's dynamics, and recently ESPN has begun to speak out frequently for Rose, and Turtle Turtle can't help but feel pantothenic acid in his heart, since college, he has received less attention than the other party, and the two are also old enemies.
"The Bulls' record may be far worse than ours, breaking a wave of wins, and the record is only 10-8, maybe we have won too many games, so the media have become accustomed to it."
Li Ze also discovered this phenomenon, perhaps the household registration book has played a role, the gorgeous and energetic Rose has received a lot of attention recently, coupled with the blessing of the Bulls' feelings, the popularity is surging, and Chicago fans have even regarded Rose as Jordan's successor...
"But as long as we win, the attention will come to our side, and it just so happens that the next game is ESPN's national broadcast live, and I've been looking forward to it since the end of November!"
Durant, who was sitting on the bench, also changed his clothes, covered his mouth, and followed the turtle and Li Ze happily chatting with his eyebrows, he has experienced the attention brought by the live broadcast in the United States, at least the number of Twitter fans is rising every day.
"Alright, boys, it's almost over! Don't forget to shake hands with your opponents! ”
The assistant coach saw that the three of them were chatting more and more, and couldn't help but remind him that he couldn't be too arrogant when he won.
"Don't worry, Coach! We know the rules! ”
101:116, the Thunder easily defeated the Warriors at home, Li Ze scored 24 points in the third quarter, and Curry also scored 22 points, but obviously he was very dissatisfied with his performance, and after the loss, his performance was extremely disappointed.
"Maybe you should treat your manager to a meal and ask him not to chop your playing time so hard and keep up the good work, Bro!"
After the two hugged and greeted, Li Ze saw Curry's lost expression and immediately comforted him.
"It's my own problem, I'm going to get used to the rhythm of the game! You also work hard to win the MVP! ”
When Li Ze heard Curry's words, he nodded secretly in his heart, there was no fluke in success, it was precisely because of these trials and tribulations that Curry would be able to kill in the future.
"Remember to say hello to Ayesha on my behalf, you must not eat too much popcorn for the special version!"
“......”
After winning this game with the Warriors, the Thunder also played a wave of 5 consecutive wins, once again attracting the attention of media reporters and ball critics, because in the next game, the Thunder will face the Bulls, who are also 5 consecutive wins, and Amika's side has long been hyping this game.
Although TNT has no plans to broadcast the game, it did not delay the Inside the NBA show, and host Ernnie Johnson began to discuss the Thunder's clash with the Bulls tomorrow night after the Thunder finished the game.
"OK, Chuck, I know your point, you like Joakim Noah's passion, you like the Bulls' interior combination, you think Derrick Rose will lead the team to victory, at this point, I want to hear Kenny's thoughts first."
Charles Barkley's eyes widened, pretending to be surprised, and he interjected directly:
"No, man, I love the Bulls' style of play, but I'm sure the Thunder will win the game!"
"You're actually starting to support the jump shooting team! Chuck: Are you going to abandon your basketball philosophy? Then the next show will not be easy, and I also support the Thunder. ”
Kenny Smith also teased Charles Barkley in his own exaggerated tone.
"With 19 shots, Kayce broke Chamberlain's ancient record, with such crazy projection ability, of course I have to support it, and I have to support it strongly, as long as the Thunder team can continue to perform highly, I support Kayce to win the MVP!"
Host Earlnie Johnson heard Barkley's words and suddenly said:
"Even though our show has a special sponsorship from Big Machine Records, Chuck, you have to follow your heart's thoughts, you're making it hard for the two of us to do it, you're stealing Kenny's job!"
Kenny Smith suddenly slapped his head, pretended to be surprised, and said loudly:
"Oh God! You actually told the story! ”
"Hey, I'm serious, I'm really optimistic that the Thunder can win, Thibodeau is a good head coach, he has a good game of the Bulls' defense, Derrick Rose is also very good, he always has an easy way to score inside breakaways."
"But the Thunder's offense is unstoppable, and looking at Kayce's form, the Bulls lack good wing defenders, while the Lakers, Pacers, and Heat are more restrained by the Thunder in terms of lineups, that's what I really think."
Charles Barkley began to analyze the gap between the two sides in a serious manner, but just halfway through the conversation, host Ernnie Johnson suddenly interjected:
"Are you still a Heat supporter? LeBron has refused to bring talent to TNT, and he has turned down our invitation to the show. ”
"It's okay, maybe this offseason, Chuck and I can come back and sign a veteran base salary with the Heat, and we'll bring talent to the Heat!"
"Haha, you two are so bad, I really don't want to mention this stalk again!"
“......”
On December 6, the Thunder will come to Chicago to take on the in-form Bulls in back-to-back games, Carlos Boozer has recently returned from injury, and the Bulls' five-game winning streak is naturally inseparable from Boozer's excellent performance.
This game is the focus of the NBA league recently, and ESPN, as the broadcaster, naturally spares no effort to promote the game, and also sends its own strongest on-site commentary lineup.
Veteran narrator Mike Brin and guest commentators are also Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy, and the trio will always be featured in the focus battles of ESPN broadcasts.
Before the game, in the visiting team's locker room, Coach Brooks was also a little happy in his heart, fortunately, the last game with the Warriors had little physical consumption, otherwise it would definitely affect tonight's matchup with the Bulls.
"Playing at the United Center, we have to be prepared to deal with difficulties, as we analyzed before the game, through more than a dozen games, the Bulls have successfully established their own defensive system, so we must be patient on the offensive end."
"Russell, you have to pay attention to Rose's transition offense, after the Bulls win the rebound in the backcourt, you have to delay Rose as soon as possible, and you must not let the opponent get up easily."
"When defending the pick-and-roll, the speed of the defensive rotation should also be fast, pay attention to Boozer's mid-range jumper, Green, the defense must follow out!"
After explaining all the precautions, Coach Brooks paused, and then drew a big pie for the rotation players:
"It's going to be a tough game, so we've all got to be ready, and if we don't have a good shot from the outside, I'm going to make a rotation early, come on, boys!"
"Whew!!"
The Thunder shouted in unison, and Daquin Cook shouted the loudest, maybe he could get some playing time again...
Unlike the season's opener, the Bulls are back at home with a lot of momentum, and because of the Bulls dynasty, Chicago's ball market has been very good, and tonight's United Center arena is packed, and the atmosphere is particularly hot.
As soon as the lights dimmed and the beam hit his own half, the mascot Pele began to wave the Bulls flag wildly.
When the passionate music played and the home DJ began to roar loudly to introduce the team players to the game, the cheers never stopped, especially after Derrick Rose came out, and everyone in the Thunder tunnel could hear the tsunami-like cheers.
At this time, Li Ze's heart suddenly thought of the Bulls' famous appearance comedy "Sirius", and as soon as the melody sounded, it definitely reminded you of the Bulls' dream dynasty...
I have to say that after wearing the white and red home jersey, the Bulls look a lot more fierce, although Rose has always maintained a expressionless appearance, but Chicago fans like Rose's facial paralysis, the more cold the more like...
During the final warm-up before the game, Rose still looked calm, but the small flame in his heart jumped up, and the fiasco in the opening game really stung him deeply, and he was extremely eager to win this game.
"The Chicago fans are so loyal, you can't see a Thunder supporter here, Michael Jordan is really great."
Turtles are a little used to the sight of a lot of spectators cheering for the Thunder when they go to an away game, but tonight was really different, and there were no Thunder fans in Chicago.
"It may be the impact of two triple wins and six championships, but it doesn't matter, we should be used to playing with boos."
Li Ze glanced up at the championship flag fluttering above the stadium, and sighed in his heart.
The game is about to begin, and on the sideline ESPN's commentary bench, Jeff Van Gundy is commenting on the Bulls' starting lineup:
"Coach Thibodeau is still sticking to the defensive focus, with Derrick Rose and Keith Bogans on the defensive line and Lore Deng and Carlos Boozer on the front line, Boozer's return from injury has helped the Bulls a lot, he can finish the offense from mid-range and open up space for Rose's breakthrough."
"Joaquin Noah has improved a lot in the new season, and the defensive positional sense has become more and more excellent, maybe we can look forward to whether the run-in Bulls can withstand the Thunder's offense, and tonight's matchup between the two young teams will definitely be very exciting!"
Commentator Mike Brin heard Jeff Van Gundy's comments and immediately picked up the conversation and said:
"This is the second time I've commented on Lee's game, I was very impressed with the last time he was a lad and recently he broke Oxlade-Chamberlain's old record, so I'm really looking forward to his performance, the players are in the middle of the pitch and the game is about to start!"
The referee motioned for the players from both sides to come to the center circle, the players of the two teams nodded in greeting, and the mascot of the Bulls, Pele Bull, also began to raise his hands continuously, making the atmosphere of the scene high, and the audience in the United Center Arena immediately cheered loudly for the home team:
“Let's go Bulls! Let's go Bulls! Let's go Bulls! ”
"Smack!"
With the blessing of the home fans, the enthusiastic Joaquin Noah successfully jumped to the ball for the Bulls, and after receiving the ball, Rose slowly dribbled the ball through the half court with his left hand, and then quickly gave the ball to Lore Deng who was covering.
Durant's defense is not big, just raising his right hand high, guarding against sudden shots, and always paying attention to the Bulls' position on the inside, but unexpectedly, Lore Deng did not choose to pass, but after three threats, he shot directly outside the three-point line.
The three-point shot hollowed into the net.
hit a three-pointer at the beginning, which directly ignited the atmosphere of the United Center Arena, and the audience at the scene shouted wildly for a while, and then began to shout for the home team's defense under the leadership of the DJ:
“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”
The Thunder team quickly served from the bottom line, Li Ze was actually a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect the Bulls' home atmosphere to be so violent, he could only say that the other party did regard the Thunder team as an opponent.
In order to pull the offensive space on the court, the turtle chose to launch a high block away from the three-point line, Kostic directly raised, and the turtle used the cover to quickly get rid of Rose's entanglement.
At the same time, Li Ze and Jeff Green also made a cross cover in the paint area, and then quickly bounced out, and quickly played a hand-to-hand pass with the turtle, and the Bulls' defensive choice at this time was very interesting.
In the face of such a defense, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand, did not stop the ball, lowered the center of his body, and accelerated the breakthrough with all his might, and the defending Noah also quickly slid backwards, using his height advantage to firmly cover Li Ze.
Li Ze, who broke through to the paint area, had slowed down at this time, and suddenly closed the ball near the basket, Noah jumped subconsciously, and saw Li Ze's right foot as the axis, and he turned around and threw a jumper backwards with agility.
The two-point ball hollowed into the net.
"Clever choice! Noah's athleticism is fantastic, Kayce didn't choose to shoot on the outside, but broke through to the inside, and used his nimble feet to score the ball under the basket, a very beautiful technical move! ”
Jeff Van Gundy was the first to give Li Ze words of praise.
The atmosphere in the United Center Arena stalled for a moment, after all, Li Ze's goal looked pleasing to the eye, but driven by the home DJ, everyone immediately came back to their senses, and then cheered loudly for the home team.
Unlike the Thunder's offense, the Bulls completely suppressed their offensive rhythm, and after Rose dribbled past half court, he immediately gave the ball to Boozer at the free throw line, and then began to run without the ball.
Somewhat similar to the Thunder's offense, Joakim Noah also frequently appeared near the three-point line for high pick-and-rolls, and with about 8 seconds left on the offensive time, Derrick Rose received the ball on the left side outside the three-point line and used Noah's pick-and-roll to break through directly.
Noticing that the Thunder's defense contracted instantly, Rose didn't care, and after breaking through to the vicinity of the paint area, he threw himself directly into the air, and against Jeff Green, who was shrinking the defense, tossed and turned in the air, from left to right, and scored the ball on the other end of the basket.
“D-Rose! Fast don’t lie! Puts it in! ”
An exaggerated pull-up layup made commentator Mike Brin shout excitedly.
Li Ze first glanced at the expressionless Rose, and then noticed that with the success of the offense, the Bulls' offensive time took about 22 seconds, and it was obvious that Coach Thibodeau still planned to slow down the pace of the game and use defense to limit the Thunder.
On the Thunder's offensive round, Durant was the first to feel in trouble, and there was a problem with his favorite double screen catch, and Lore Deng squeezed through Jeff Green's cover hard, while Joakim Noah switched out again and played with Lore Deng behind him.
As soon as Durant saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately gave the ball to the turtle outside the three-point line, and reorganized the offense again, this time Li Ze came directly to the left elbow area of the free throw line to ask for the ball, received the turtle pass, and turned to the frame to attack.
Bogans guarded Li Ze's left hand, and noticed that Rose on the line suddenly approached him, Li Ze quickly tried to move, shaking Bogans' defensive center of gravity backwards, and then resisted the opponent's block, and shot a mid-range dry pull-out jumper.
"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.
Coach Thibodeau on the sidelines saw Li Ze's goal, his brows furrowed, the speed of handling the ball was too fast, and the hit rate was high, unless he took the ball and directly wrapped it, otherwise the single defense effect was too poor, but thinking of his own defensive resources, Coach Thibodeau could only shake his head helplessly in his heart.
The opening few offenses of both sides showed completely different styles of play, the Thunder will desperately speed up the offensive tempo, and the Bulls are eager to play the offense to 48 seconds... In the minutes that followed, the two sides maintained a high shooting percentage, while also battling it out, trying to control the attacking tempo on the field.
On the offense of the Thunder, Durant once again delayed receiving the ball, faced Joain Noah who switched to the defense, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, but because the center of gravity was too high, Noah kept giving physical confrontation on his side during Durant's march.
Durant was forced to stop the ball in the paint area and wanted to make a false move, but Noah made a quicker move, dribbled the ball with his hand, cut the ball away, and then quickly gave the ball to Rose, and the Bulls immediately launched a conversion attack.
"He definitely hit my hand and it's a shooting foul! You can definitely see it clearly on the sidelines! ”
When Durant quickly retreated, he also shouted at the linesman, at this time, the turtle was interfering with Rose's advance with all his strength on his side, but the opponent's speed was too fast, and the turtle who started after him felt that he couldn't keep up.
Derrick Rose rushed fast at this time, did not slow down when he rushed to the paint area, carried the turtle with his body, and then rushed up in three steps, and quickly picked up the basket with his left hand.
The basketball had already flown to the highest point, and when Rose thought that the ball could be easily hit, Li Ze, who was desperately chasing after him, quickly jumped up and directly sent out the pegboard cap.
"Smack!"
The basketball was slapped on the rebound, and then popped up directly, the turtle turtle was quick and quickly controlled the ball, and then Li Ze and the turtle began to accelerate wildly, quickly rushing to the opponent's half, and the players of the two teams also quickly turned around, and everyone rushed to the Bulls.
Turtle noticed that Durant was in the Bulls' half at this time, and immediately passed the ball, and after receiving the ball, Durant accelerated with the ball in his right hand, and Joakim Noah's help defense was posted again.
Durant was not reluctant to attack, noticing that Li Ze had rushed into the three-point line, and directly made a fake sudden pass, hitting the ground and passing the ball to Li Ze who cut in, Joaquin Noah subconsciously turned around, and saw Li Ze rising in the air, taking advantage of the momentum to sink the tomahawk-style violent dunk!
"Bang..." cut into the violent dunk.
“OH! Kayce Gets inside! Monster dunk!! ”
Commentator Mike Brin shouted excitedly when he noticed that Li Ze had completed the block and completed the cut dunk.
Coach Thibodeau was not happy with the defense, and he began to shout from the sidelines for his players to slow down the game, and for the rest of the first quarter, the Bulls continued to maintain a 24-second offensive tempo, and Rose and Boozer's pick-and-rolls began to work.
At 24:22, the away Thunder team only led by two points, and 24 points have shown that this is not the offensive rhythm of the Thunder team, except for Li Ze who scored 8 points on 4 shots, his teammates are a little iron, and the Bulls use the home court to gradually increase physical confrontation.
In the second quarter of the rotation, the Bulls continued to maintain their rhythm of the game, and Rose continued to play after only a two-minute break.
“Bang! Kyle Korver from downtown!! ”
Li Ze saw that the difference was widened to 4 points, and quickly played a high block with Collison outside the three-point line, Joakim Noah quickly switched defenses, Li Ze was in and out with his right hand, quickly dribbled behind his back after using the free throw line, and stepped back to shoot against Noah's block.
“Kayce,Hits the three! That's good! ”
At the end of the half, at 48:50, the Bulls overtook by two points, and Li Ze made 1 of 4 three-pointers in the half.
After the start of the second half, the Bulls continued to attack unhurriedly, and Coach Thibodeau on the sidelines kept loudly reminding his players to improve their defensive attention, and Joakim Noah, with the blessing of the home crowd, became more and more energetic.
Durant directly dreamed of returning to the Western Conference Finals and was lost in the opponent's muscular defense again, at this time Li Ze could already feel that the Bulls gradually mastered the situation of the game, and the Thunder's continuous outside iron made him lose his offensive rhythm.
Ty Gibson and Boozer took turns on the court, which choked Jeff Green enough, and the Bulls' defense was shrinking smaller and smaller, and the Turtle's breakthrough was not effective.
The crowd at the United Center arena was shouting wildly this time, they had seen the dawn of victory, and the Thunder's outside line was inaccurate.
“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”
At this time, the scene was particularly noisy, and Coach Brooks was a little anxious on the sidelines, and shouted directly to Li Ze when he was serving from the bottom line:
“Kayce! Let go of the attack, block and dismantle, block and dismantle at the No. 5 position! ”
The Thunder attacked, this time the turtle immediately handed the ball to Li Ze after half time, and after playing an offensive hand, Kostic quickly came to the three-point line, still blocking and dismantling high.
Joakim Noah confidently followed out, and at the same time beat his chest twice, giving himself a buff, and then lowered his body's center of gravity, staring at Li Ze's movements.
After completing the high blocking, Li Ze did not slow down, his left hand was in and out during the march, and then he quickly changed direction in front of his body, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, noticed that Noah began to slide backwards, and his right hand suddenly dribbled behind his back, and he stepped back and made a jumper.
“Bang! Kayce Hits the three! ”
The Bulls' offense was unaffected and continued to shoot at the buzzer within 24 seconds, but Boozer's mid-range jumper hit the iron, and after Kostic received the rebound, he gave the ball directly to Lee.
Li Ze quickly dribbled across the halfcourt, Bogans' defense directly pasted up, and at the same time, Boozer on the inside was also moving to the left, ready to wrap at any time.
At this time, Li Ze suddenly lowered his body's center of gravity, quickly changed direction under his left hand, and dribbled with a large backdribble with his right hand, completely shaking off Bogans' defense, and directly retreated and jumped at a distance of one step from the three-point line:
“OH!! It's good! Kayce from way downtown! ”
The atmosphere group on the bench of the Thunder team began to throw towels wildly, everyone screamed, overtaking 4 points, and the exaggerated three-point shot also made the audience in the United Center arena temporarily lose their voices, and then there were all kinds of noisy scolding...
Everyone in the Bulls team was also a little panicked, and Coach Thibodeau kept making downward gestures on the sidelines, signaling everyone to steady, but Rose's breakthrough came out of the frame again, and Jeff Green collected the rebound and gave the ball to Li Ze again.
is still the No. 5 position of the high block, Li Ze used Kostic's defense to get rid of Gambles's entanglement, Noah, who came up on the switch, was a little numb at this time, noticed that Li Ze's right hand was in and out, and his body was subconsciously stunned, and then watched Li Ze break through his defense.
Boozer on the inside quickly switched to the basket, and Li Ze did not slow down while moving, with a large embodiment of his right hand, and then quickly closed the ball and went straight to the basket.
"My bowl!!"
"Hmm..."
Li Ze, who lost his center of gravity, first shouted, then fell directly to the floor, saw the basketball crawling into the basket, and immediately sat under the basketball hoop and beat his chest and roared:
“SIU!!”
The United Center Arena suddenly became silent at this time, and the audience at the scene silently watched Li Ze sitting on the floor pretending to be X...
Li Ze felt that the camera on the side moved away from the lens, and hurriedly took the opportunity to gasp, and at the same time complained frantically in his heart:
"It's too difficult to play X away..."
