32. Do you also deserve to wear a size 0?
"Competitors starting from scratch:
Goal 1: Host Limit Gilbert Arenas to a shooting percentage below his season average.
Reward: 1000 achievement points.
Goal 2: The host must shoot more than Gilbert Arenas in this game.
Reward: Skills related to mid-range shooting. ”
"The dark horse is gaining momentum:
Goal: The host needs to help the team defeat the University of Arizona Wildcats and win the first half of the division.
Reward: Base attribute points x3. ”
The second task, Li Ao looked at it and didn't care.
He's going to have to do everything he can tonight to help the team win.
The difficulty is all on the first mission.
The difficulty in limiting Arenas' shooting percentage is that Arenas has just exploded, and Arenas has not averaged 41.6% in 7 games.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a prodigal nature.
However, Arenas' low average shooting percentage has become a difficult task for this task, and Arenas has scored 11 points on 5-of-7 shooting in 7 minutes.
To pull to lower than 41.6%...... As for the second target, he glanced at it, and as with the second task, he didn't think about it.
I didn't think much about it, although the task is important, but the more important thing is to win!
After the timeout, Li Ao played with Granville, Shelby Jordan, White Mamba and Charles.
The Wildcats made personnel changes, with Luke Wharton replacing Richard Jefferson, who didn't defend the White Mamba well tonight, and Gardner, Arenas, Michael Wright, and Woods continued to play.
The Trojans attacked, and the White Mamba fed the ball to Granville on the halfway line.
Li Ao saw that it was Arenas who was guarding him, glanced at Granville, quietly pointed to the destination, and after getting a response, began to run.
The white mamba served to the left side of the three-second zone, and Charles pulled it out to block him.
The Wildcats' defensive attention was all on Granville's breakthrough and White Mamba's wing around the pile, and Li Ao, who ran to the right baseline, did not pull into the high post receiving area, and when he saw Woods follow Charles out to defend the pick-and-roll, he turned around sharply and ran backwards to the basket.
Arenas retreated again and again, and Li Ao reached the right side of the three-second zone and received a direct pass from Granville from the top arc, and directly stepped forward to press it, jumped, and hit a layup!
Luke Wharton, who found that Li Ao was running back, immediately took in a beat slower and failed to make up for the defense.
Luke Wharton glanced at Arenas and silently picked up the ball to serve.
He didn't dare to ask or say.
This ball can be made up for if Arenas gives a confrontation when Li Ao is running back, or sticks it up to interfere with the pass and catch the ball after Li Ao is close to the distance!
As Li Ao remembers, Arenas is extremely averse to confrontation on the defensive end, especially opponents who are larger than him, and have no defensive enthusiasm.
He tried to use this to rush inside, and it was! However, the first shot of the 'perfect warm-up' was also consumed by this offense.
The reason why he didn't choose to upgrade to the 'perfect warm-up' was because the probability of being able to use it was not as high as he had initially estimated.
Switching offense and defense, after Arenas arrived in the front court, Li Ao immediately posted it and tried to interfere with the opponent's reception.
After Gardner arrived in the frontcourt, Arenas turned back and ran to start quickly, got rid of Li Ao's sticky defense, and received the ball from Gardner.
This outbreak is speeding up too fast!
However, Li Ao was not discouraged, and immediately posted it again.
Arenas crossed steps to change direction and break through, Li Ao couldn't stop it, and struggled to turn around and chase to cover Arenas's shooting space, Arenas broke out and accelerated and braked sharply halfway, Li Ao predicted the opponent's action, struggled to retract his feet, and pounced back to reach out to interfere.
But Arenas's emergency stop is too horizontal, the speed of 93, the explosion of 95 accelerates, stops when it is said, and as if it is not affected by inertia, it is pulled up directly after the emergency stop, and the jump is still high!
When Li Ao reached the point where Arenas shot the basket, the ball had already flown over his head......
The ball is lightly on the inside of the basket and falls into the frame.
Again!
Arenas scored 9 points in a row!
Li Ao's head was spinning rapidly, this was too horizontal, this quasi-head was simply unreasonable, this breakthrough and emergency stop were not something that could be prevented by normal defense, and he had to change his thinking......
When he came to the frontcourt, he first put aside how to defend and threw himself into the attack.
He continued to run the way he did in the previous round, going around the baseline.
Charles pulled out again to play an off-ball pick-and-roll with the White Mamba, and the Wildcats adjusted their defense, with Michael Wright chasing after him and Woods staying under the basket.
Seeing this, Shelby Jordan ran diagonally along the left side of the free throw line to close range.
Li Ao with defenders (×)
Blocking the completely unguarded 'Little Lambir' (√)
Woods made the foot-moving choice.
The three teammates in the front court restrained the opponent's frontcourt defense, and Li Ao ran back again to cut to the basket.
Luke Wharton ignored Charles after being blocked by Charles, he retracted into the three-second zone and moved early to block Li Ao from catching the ball and eating Arenas.
In response to the top talent, he naturally analyzed the opponent's attack, and when he saw the opponent's movement, he knew that the opponent was creating an opportunity for Li Ao to eat Arenas alone.
But the ball didn't come in as Luke Wharton expected!
He quickly turned his head to look, and sure enough, Granville had burst in past Gardner!
He turned around to make up for it, Granville split the ball, Li Ao pushed Arenas to catch the ball and hit a layup!
21-20, the Trojans overtook the score again.
Kevin Henderson on the sidelines exclaimed: "Leo has such a keen offensive nose. ”
Henry Bibby is a rare absence of a hard bar, as this is the best part of Ao's talent.
It was seen in the opening game that although the ability was not good, and there was no running skills or anything, Li Ao could find a good opportunity by instinct.
On the court, Woods yelled at Arenas, "Stop him!" The girls in the nightclub will symbolically resist! ”
Luke Wharton didn't dare say anything, but Woods didn't.
Who isn't a genius anymore?
He went to the basket as soon as Granville burst to the free throw line, and his work was in vain.
He had a good relationship with the ousted Ruben Douglas and immediately seized the opportunity to spray Arenas twice.
Arenas immediately retorted: "Shut up!" I don't need you to teach me how to play! ”
Li Ao, who was running back, heard each other yelling on the other side, thinking that this was infighting?
But he watched Arenas run over with a murderous look on his face...... Probably not.
This is probably the standard atmosphere in the team where the man with the gun is drawn.
Arenas was noticeably more aggressive, and as soon as Gardner, who pressed the tempo to the frontcourt, crossed the halfway line, Arenas opened his hands to ask for the ball.
He's going to shut up Woods with a score!
That's how he responds to his teammates' questions!
Li Ao pressed up to interfere in front of him, and Arenas used his excellent explosiveness to receive the ball again.
Just when Arenas was about to use Li Ao to press the defense and easily pass the opponent, the sense of oppression disappeared!
Li Ao took a step back and stepped on the three-point line to defend!
Arenas crossed steps to change direction, Li Ao did not move his steps in a hurry, but just followed the direction of Arenas's change of direction to step on small steps.
Moved ahead without prediction, Li Ao couldn't prevent Arenas from breaking through at all, and Arenas passed Li Ao more easily than in the previous round and entered the three-point line.
Li Ao hurriedly turned around to chase the defense, without predicting the movement, there was no inertia after being shaken away, he turned around and caught up a little faster than the previous round, trying to cover Arenas's emergency stop jump shot space.
After reaching the free throw line on the right side of the three-second zone, Arenas made a sharp stop, stepped back, got out of the area covered by Li Ao, and also avoided Shelby Jordan's supplementary defense!
Without exerting too much effort on breaking through this ring, Arenas made a quick stop and retreat!
Taking a step outside the free throw line, Arenas pulled up a long two-point shot......
"Bang ......"
The ball is off!
The White Mamba protects the defensive rebound.
was very surprised, seeing that Li Ao was also easily beaten by Arenas, he was frustrated in his heart.
I didn't expect the other party to suddenly be iron!
Li Ao ran forward excitedly, he admitted that there was an element of gambling,
He knew he didn't have the ability to lock up Arenas, and Arenas was in such good shape that he made any kind of difficult shots.
In this case, he no longer aims to prevent Arenas, but finds ways to make Arenas uncomfortable.
His first attempt was to disrupt Arenas' current shooting rhythm.
Trepaganier's defense in front, his defense in the last round, the intensity is already their limit.
Since this is unguardable, increase the shooting interference, but reduce the intensity, allowing Arenas to shoot at a different pace than when he scored nine points in a row.
Seems to have worked!
Take advantage of the victory and chase it! Li Ao ran to the front court, waited for Granville to advance beyond the three-point line, and actively started to run.
The Wildcats passively adjusted their defense, encountering situations that exceeded their prior preparation.
In the past 5 games, Li Ao played an average of 22.6 minutes per game, and the proper main playing time, the Wildcats have regarded him as an object that needs attention when preparing for the game.
But Li Ao's style of play tonight is too different from the past few games.
After all, they are just a substitute, or a newcomer who defends + pure running shooting + strategy, and their preparation will naturally not be as full as for Granville, White Mamba and others, and the time is limited, and they have not really played against each other.
For example, Li Ao had an opportunity to attack inside before, and they didn't notice it when he caught Turner Hill and kept chiseling.
Seeing that Li Ao continued to work on the bottom line, the frontcourt players of the Wildcats subconsciously pressed inward.
Li Ao, who caught Arenas from the bottom line for half a circle, noticed the change in the opponent's defense, did not wait for the white mamba to run, and pressed Arenas to the inside line in advance, Michael Wright and Woods were so frightened that they quickly contracted.
Granville tacitly passed the ball early and delivered the ball to Li Ao before he was surrounded by a trio.
Li Ao received the ball from the ball and used his reach to hoist the ball from Michael Wright's head to Shelby Jordan.
Shelby Jordan had a clear mind, and he was a bunch of people on the inside who went in to beat the dog, and he waited a second to see the white mamba run around the pile to the left 45-degree angle and pass the ball before Michael Wright could pounce.
The White Mamba didn't feel good about receiving the ball and adjusted a little, giving Luke Wharton a chance to catch up around the pick-and-roll.
Seeing the White Mamba's adjusted movements, Luke Wharton pounced hard.
Luke Wharton knows the White Mamba well, a top pitcher who is good at everything, but also has a flaw – soft.
Anti-white mamba, if you have the opportunity to pounce, the more fierce the action, the better, this thing will definitely dodge the pounce and then throw.
is the same as Li Ao thought, if you can't prevent it, you have to increase the difficulty of the opponent's shooting.
To Luke Wharton's surprise, the White Mamba jumped up and down to his save and threw the ball out!
His pounce just looked fierce, and if the opponent really wanted to throw, he couldn't even touch the opponent's arm.
The white mamba anti-aircraft gun slid through a high arc and fell into the frame!
Three-pointer hit to make it 24-20, and the Trojans regained a four-point lead to stop the Wildcats!
The scene is boiling!
Just now they were by Arenas alone with a wave of 7-0, and they felt like the world was going to collapse.
Unexpectedly, he immediately returned a wave of 7 to 2, which in turn stopped the other party!
In just a few minutes, they felt like they were on a roller coaster, but fortunately there were ups and downs and finally up again!
The fans cheered wildly, with quite a few shouting 'Leo', and more and more people shouting.
Everyone can see that the team's resurgence depends on Li Ao.
Li Ao's defensive talent is also recognized by Trojans fans, and fans have anticipation when he comes on the court.
But the fans didn't expect Li Ao to help the team score 7 points in a row from the offensive end after he came on the court!
What is a surprise?
This pedal is!
The big screen camera was also given to Li Ao, watching Li Ao pointing to No. 0 on his chest, the fans broke out into violent cheers again, and more people shouted his name.
Some alumni who have been hacking Li Ao before, looking at Li Ao's face at this moment, he is really a little milk dog who looks like a dog......
On the court, Li Ao did not make an action in front of the camera, but in front of Arenas, and his mouth was still saying something, but the scene was too noisy for Arenas to hear clearly.
However, from Li Ao's mouth shape and the action of pointing to the jersey number, Arenas understood what the other party said.
"You deserve to wear a size 0 too?"
