PFC Chapter 115 Rookie Challenge
Chapter 115 Rookie Challenge
Chapter 115 Rookie Challenge
This year's All-Star Weekend was held in New Orleans, hosted by the city of New Orleans together with the New Orleans Hornets.
Perhaps this is also the case. The fans in New Orleans are very dissatisfied that Chris Paul failed to enter the Western Conference All-Star starters. In their view, Li Wan's position should belong to Chris Paul. Let's take a look at his statistics. Take a look at his team leadership results, shall we?
In these aspects, which one is the universal comparison of that PG?
Chilling!
What the Los Angeles media meant was: Then go to the police!
Li Wan did not respond to related questions.
Mainly, more than 90.00% of the city is black. Although Auden, Conley, and Cook are all black, and they are all his good comrades-in-arms and good brothers, one fact that cannot be changed is... mentioning blacks, I think of It's guns, drugs.
The so-called hip-hop culture comes from the black gangsters on the street. They hope to convey what they want with their songs. Therefore, hip-hop songs are basically inseparable from money, women, drugs, extravagant life and bloody and violent images. .
As an aside, it is indeed impossible to have a drill culture in China. It can only be said that songs of a similar style can be produced.
I don’t know if it’s because of the large number of blacks. In a later urban survey, New Orleans was the city with the worst mental health rate, even worse than Chicago, which has the highest crime rate.
Talk to the fans in this city, maybe there will be the kind of black people with bad brains secretly buying "peanuts".
Not really necessary.
When Li Wan arrived, the other three from Ohio had already arrived.
When they sat face to face in the officially arranged hotel lobby, they were more or less in a trance.
In 06, when they met in Ohio, they decided to participate in the draft together and enter the NBA, and now they have done it!
Last year's draft ended, they said they would enter the Rookie Challenge together, now...
They did the same!
or……
Another frenzied thought, everyone makes an All-Star team?
Well, well, forget it...
All three of them participated in the voting this time, and they can better understand how difficult it is to become the first All-Star. At the back, there was a "fairy fight" in the front, and they understood at that time why the All-Star starting would be a status symbol!
It was probably for this reason that they looked at Li Wan now, and the envy in their eyes deepened.
Although I don't want my brother to have a bad life, but this brother's life is too good, right?
Playing in the big city of Los Angeles, there are all kinds of lace news with stars off the court, and the fans love it. The popularity even wiped out Allen Iverson, the "veteran" who made the All-Star debut, and Nike also gave him innovation. The 4 million recorded by the show in 6 years...
Which of these things was not what they wanted, Li Wan, the hanger, took it all!
Li Wan saw everything in his eyes...
Maybe the three hanging men didn't notice it themselves. Every time they met, the envy in their eyes when they looked at Li Wan was stronger than the previous one.
Well, except for Cook, the other two brothers are indeed a bit unsatisfactory when they entered the NBA.
After Oden won the No. [-] pick, he underwent surgery immediately. Others are already struggling with the "rookie wall", and he is still adapting to this league;
Mike Conley was the fourth overall pick in the first round, and went to the Grizzlies with the title of "the first guard selected in 07". As a result, he was pressured by a European veteran for a month and a half. He has just turned around, and is actually similar to Oden, and he is still adapting to the targeted defense brought to him by other home teams;
However, after Li Wan said, "Tonight's consumption will be paid by Mr. Li", several people immediately showed satisfied smiles.Whether it's envy or jealousy, after Li Wan said this, they immediately balanced.To put it bluntly, I just want to kill my brother.
Li Wan knew very well that the three brothers had only this little promise!
After playing around ten o'clock, Li Wan took them to the nightclub to play a round of throwing money, and walked back one by one satisfied. They can't play too late tonight, and they still have the Rookie Challenge to play tomorrow.
When they came back, it happened to be the time for those All-Star players to go out to be cool, so they met many players who were selected for this year's All-Star lineup at the door.
Auden and the others consciously gave way when they saw these league leaders.
Seeing them stand restlessly, Li Wan really wanted to send an international gesture: The one standing in front of you is the big star who killed Allen Iverson and entered the starting lineup of this year's Western Conference All-Stars!
What the hell, why haven't you shown me this expression?
Sure enough... Faye Wong's friends would not think that Faye Wong is so mysterious; Hong Kong people know that Chow Yun-fat is just a "street guy"; Liu Qingyun is just an ordinary citizen!
After going upstairs to his room, Li Wan remembered that after arriving in New Orleans, he had never seen Kobe again...
Did you go to Gasol for a "hot chat"?
This is too much!
I haven't left yet!
No, Pau Gasol didn't enter this year's Western Conference All-Star bench, did he?
Li Wan glanced at this year's All-Star brochure.
The lineup for the third day of the All-Star Weekend is as follows:
Eastern Conference starters: Jason Kidd, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard;
Among them, Garnett, the "vote king", was confirmed absent from the All-Star Game due to injury, and Chris Bosh entered the starting list instead of him.
The future "Heat Big Three" assembled ahead of schedule.
In addition, Carmelo Anthony, who also became the starter in the West, is also the four players with the highest achievements in the "03 generation", and it is the first time that they collectively serve as the All-Star starter.
On the bench, Chris Bosh replaced Kevin Garnett, and the league added Rasheed Wallace, plus Hamilton and Chauncey Billups...
The "Piston Four Tigers" left Prince alone to repair the car in Detroit, cursing and cursing while doing the repairs: Is my "little prince" shameless?
There are also Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Joe Johnson, Caron Butler and Jamison.
Except for Joe Johnson, the other All-Star bench positions in the East are divided among the top four teams in the East.
The same is true in the West.
The five players in the starting lineup are: Li Wan, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Tim Duncan and Yao Ming;
On the bench are Brandon Roy, Allen Iverson, Steve Nash, Chris Paul, Boozer, Dirk Nowitzki, Stoudemire, David Weiss special.
No one thought that Deron Williams, who averaged 18.6 points and 10.5 assists per game, was not selected for this All-Star Western Conference bench.
The Utah media collectively protested that the "Zen Master" was intentional!
As the head coach of the Western All-Star team this time, Phil Jackson has the right to choose players.
But in fact, Phil Jackson didn't play these little tricks.
It is true that this time the All-Star bench lineup does not have his position. Originally, Deron did not make it this year. The reason for not making it is also very simple. There are too many people in the first position, and Steve Nash has two MVPs. Bar?As the host, Chris Paul has better statistics than him, so he must enter, right?
Not to mention that Allen Iverson was squeezed to the bench this time, it is even more impossible to have his position.
Also, there's no place for Pau Gasol here...
Li Wan curiously searched the Internet for news about Pau Gasol, only to find out that so far, Pau Gasol has only made the All-Star once, and the rest of the time he is just a spectator.
As for the honor panel, Vince Carter is worse than Vince Carter. "UFO" has the least honor among the "four shooting guards". There is only one second team and one third team. Yes, he is not worthy to fight on the same stage with the other three.
This is honourism.
Of course, this is also the main basis for the final conclusion of every star after his career.
Just like Kobe, after winning the "two consecutive championships", there are endless public opinions on par with or surpassing Jordan, but when his career is completely over, he quickly slipped to the position of "top ten goalkeepers".
This is the impact of lack of honor, only one regular season MVP is his flaw.
Pau Gasol and Yao Ming lost the "75 big" later, the same is true, Yao Ming has 2 second teams and 3 third teams, Pau Gasol also did not win the best team, only 2 second teams and 2 third teams , They were all obtained when the Lakers were the second in charge.
But putting these aside, with the strength of Dayao and Pau Gasol, it is no problem to enter the "75 Big".
Since he didn't come to New Orleans, where did Kobe go?
After searching around, Li Wan found that...he ran away with Kevin Garnett.
When Li Wan saw them, Kobe was smiling like a big fool
Thinking about how they fought each other in the finals, he really didn't expect that these two people have such a good relationship in private...
However, considering that Rajon Rondo talked to Kobe later, "Black Mamba" died, and Kevin Garnett rushed to try to persuade them to fight, their relationship is indeed not bad.
It's a pity that McHale eventually sent Kevin Garnett to Boston.
Kevin Garnett plus Kobe, to be honest, if there is no injury, Li Wan feels that there is a high probability of "three consecutive championships"...
The main reason is that the opponent of Boston's "Big Three" is missing. In the past three years, there is really nothing in the East that can fight.
Looking at him, Kobe knew that Hepi had just returned from running a nightclub. He looked like an old father and said to Li Wan in distaste: "You should have a game tomorrow, right?"
Li Wan glanced at him: "Do you think I didn't pay much attention to this game?"
"Heh~" Kobe snorted and didn't speak, but his expression had already expressed what he wanted to express.
Kevin Garnett sat next to him and watched Kobe and Li Wan bicker with great interest, and suddenly clapped his hands and suggested, "How about a bet?"
If the first-year team wins, Li Wan wins; if the second-year team wins, then Kobe wins!
As for the bet...
"Old Wolf King" thought for a long time.
"Why don't you just kiss the donkey's ass!" Li Wan boldly suggested.
Kevin Garnett's big eyeballs almost popped out.
What is outrageous?
This is called outrageous!
Young man, you really dare to say it!
Kobe also had the expression of seeing a ghost: "Shouldn't you be able to drink a bar, you little brat?"
"I knew you wouldn't dare to..."
Li Wan waved his hand with a "boring" expression on his face.
Kobe pursed his lips, trying to suppress the irritability in his heart, mainly because he felt that if he agreed, Li Wan would definitely burst out with hundreds of thousands of points of fighting spirit, and then kill the second-year team...
This kid can definitely do it.
Kevin Garnett suggested; "Well, ten thousand dollars!"
This number is not small, but for Kobe, it is not considered money, and for Li Wan who signed the Nike contract, it is not a big sum.
Li Wan shook his head in disgust and walked out the door, saying as he walked, "It's boring!"
But when someone left the door, he said again: "Kobe, prepare 1 yuan, I want cash!"
After speaking, he immediately fled.
Stimulate!
So exciting!
Leaving Kobe in the room speechless, and Kevin Garnett with a look of astonishment, although Li Wan's person in the league is already a household name, but the "Old Wolf King" really didn't expect that this kid would go too far in private.
Kobe glanced at him: "Now you know how much I want to hit him?"
Garnett opened his mouth, and a sentence stuck in his throat: You may not be able to fight, right?
But as a good friend, he didn't say such a heartbreaking sentence.
"Okay, I'm leaving!"
Kobe didn't stay long, and he had to ask his agent to send him $[-] in cash.
When Kevin Garnett heard that he was really going to prepare money, his face was full of absurdity.
But he understood one thing...
No wonder that little rookie is so crazy!
You are used to feelings, little black snake!
Kevin Garnett murmured as he watched Kobe leave.But thinking about the rookie's performance, and thinking about Kobe's desire for helpers, some connivance is normal... right?
Kobe didn't know what Garnett was thinking. He returned to the room and called his agent. After hanging up, he stood by the window and didn't know what he was looking at.
There are still two days before the big change comes, and his heart is quite uneasy.
Kobe could stop the deal, but he didn't. This is where he felt sorry for Li Wan.
He suddenly thought of the sentence he said before...
Friends come and go, but the championship banner never falls...
?
I hope I can start my era, and I hope you can start yours.
On January 1, the New Orleans Arena was lively from the morning.
Although the game won't start until five or six in the afternoon, Li Wan and others, who are all-stars, need to cooperate with NBA officials to carry out fan feedback activities.
Li Wan's hand was sore for the first time signing.
Some affectionate female fans leaned on him and asked for a group photo. In one afternoon, he had more than a dozen small notes in his pocket, as well as a dozen or twenty "blocking elves".
It's not just him, basically all the NBA stars present have encountered such a situation.
Kobe, who had been through it once, saw such a woman now, and his first reaction was to stare at her with snake-like eyes.
The female fans expressed their inner excitement in this way, while the male fans screamed in various ways. The rebellious New York fans chased after New Orleans and recruited Li Wan at the event.
In terms of fanaticism, Li Wanyuan called them the strongest.
After the event ended in the afternoon, Li Wan went to attend some press conferences, which were also organized by NBA officials. As a pure rookie selected for the first time in the All-Star starting lineup, Li Wan received a lot of attention.
At this moment, Li Wan also understood why Yao Ming complained about participating in the All-Star Weekend in his rookie season, which was "more tiring than playing in the regular season".
The itinerary was really...too much, one after another, Li Wan felt like a puppet being carried around.
Finally finished the schedule, and the evening game is about to start.
After eating a quick meal and replenishing his strength, he went to the locker room. He was the last one to arrive. The other players of the first-year team participating in the rookie challenge had all arrived at this moment.
As soon as he entered the door, he clearly felt that the whole atmosphere was weird.
In the small locker room, four "small teams" are clearly defined: Ohio "Three Littles", Florida Three Brothers, Yi Jianlian and...
That Du Lao 1.5 who has an outstanding temperament no matter where he stands.
At this time, he was holding a handful of instant noodles and stuffing it into his mouth.
Li Wan was very suspicious of the way he was chewing, whether he just finished smoking it...
Mike Conley glanced at Durant from time to time, and was speechless watching him eat instant noodles. He actually let such a fool score 50 points in two games above his head!
Li Wan didn't break this balance, he greeted Yi Jianlian and Oden, and then went to his temporary locker, sat down and played with his mobile phone for a while.
Taylor sent him several messages, informing him that he was in New Orleans and that he would be on the sidelines to watch the game that night.
——Is it okay to take pictures?
——It’s okay to take pictures, but it’s not okay to be too intimate...
He already knew about the news that Taylor came to assist in the All-Star Weekend, but unfortunately, they can only pretend to be "strangers" now.
No one wants to be asked by reporters all day during the All-Star weekend, "Why did you trade to the Magic", "What do you want to say about leaving the Lakers", "Do you think the Lakers are ruthless when they trade you?"
In particular, Li Wan participated in the All-Star Weekend for the first time.
Taylor expressed her displeasure by posting a puffed-up selfie.
Don't say it, it's a little bit cute...
Li Wan was about to say something more when he suddenly felt that Kang Li next to him...
Is it a little too close, and quickly hide the phone screen from the side close to Mike Conley.
"Depend on!"
Almost!
I almost saw it!
In fact, Kangli just noticed Li Wan who was smiling at the phone just now, and his curiosity was aroused. He didn't expect Li Wan to find out before he got close.
Is the vision really that good?
No wonder averaging 8.6 assists per game in January...
He wasn't embarrassed either, he looked at Li Wan gossipingly, and told him consciously that Li Wan must be chatting with a woman.
Li Wan hurriedly replied to Taylor, then put away the phone.
Seeing that he ignored him, Conley turned his head to "complain" to Auden, and vowed: "Brothers, we will see Li in the gossip newspaper again soon!"
Now, three pairs of eyes looked over at the same time.
Li Wanyou noticed that Yi Jianlian, who had kept his head down, subconsciously glanced at him.
"..."
Fortunately, the staff came in at this time and informed them that it was time to warm up, allowing Li Wan to escape.
After Noah changed his clothes, when he saw Li Wan wearing the same "battle robe" as himself, a strange feeling emerged from his heart.
I actually want to be teammates with this guy?
Obviously not long ago they were still fighting to the death in the media and on the field.
He wasn't alone in feeling this way.
Kevin Durant looked at Ohio's "No Good Thing" team, wearing the same jersey as him, with a slightly more uncomfortable look in his eyes.
He has always regarded Oden and Li Wan as his competitors.
Li Wan, in particular, not only snatched the "Best Rookie of the Month Award" in the West, but also snatched his "bathwater"!
Suddenly wanting to play together on the same team, he somewhat felt that the reality was a little illusory.
Li Wan had a panoramic view of everyone's demeanor, which is why he didn't deliberately coordinate the atmosphere in the locker room.
Although everyone has their own thoughts and conflicts, when they wear the same jersey to represent the first grade, they will naturally realize that this person who I usually dislike is his teammate in this game.
He didn't need to waste his time at all.
But before walking out of the locker room, he still stopped in front of everyone.
"The first-year team hasn't won against the second-year team for a long time, six years, seven years, this record doesn't matter, because it is destined to be broken tonight."
"There is always someone who will win the MVP trophy of the Rookie Challenge..."
"Why can't it be our first-year team?"
These two sentences were sonorous and forceful, making everyone unconsciously serious.
Li Wan is very satisfied with the effect, "Mamba Quotations" will always be amazing!
But he wasn't joking either, he really wanted to break this embarrassing record.
Since they are going to play in the rookie challenge, how can they just perform? Of course, this rookie challenge must be a little bit different from previous years!
Hmm... He is definitely not coveting Kobe's $[-]!
It's a pity that Kobe didn't agree. At that time, he was poured some wine first, and then it would be all right?
Hey, still too young, not mature enough!
At the scene, the spectators who were waiting for the start of the Rookie Challenge had just enjoyed a low-quality but very interesting game - Celebrity Invitational Tournament!
This can also be regarded as a feature program of the All-Star Weekend.
Celebrities, as the name suggests, are famous people, not just retired NBA stars, but also various mayors, singers, football stars... all walks of life.
The quality of the competition is not necessarily high, but there is no problem with the "familiarity" of all members.
This is how the NBA improves its brand.
You know, many people don't usually watch football. Anything that makes them pay attention to the NBA?
Naturally, they start with the stars and idols they want.
For example, the friend in Guangdong, he has participated in several celebrity invitational tournaments, which also attracted a group of female fans who usually don't watch football to leave messages under related topics:
"Wow, my brother is so handsome!"
"Giegie, that's amazing, thank you for the NBA official invitation..."
In the warm-up of the Masters Tournament, as soon as everyone participating in the Rookie Challenge came out, they heard cheers in unison.
The brand of the All-Star Weekend has really gone out, even though this year is held in New Orleans, the auditorium on the sidelines is still full of stars.
Many Hollywood stars, including Big Brother Cheng, also came to the scene, and even waved to Li Wan, asking him to take a photo with him.
In the camera, Brother Cheng showed his iconic smile.
What's interesting is that Taylor Swift was right next to them. When he saw them taking pictures, he deliberately ran over to secretly "rub" the camera and compared a pair of scissors.
It's just that no one has discovered it yet.
Including that photographer...
He was too busy, so many people wanted to take pictures, and he could only take a rough look after taking pictures. He didn't have problems such as closing his eyes or blurring his smile, so he just passed it.
As agreed, Li Wan took a generous photo with Taylor Swift.
The latter was very happy, and said softly and quickly next to him: "Long time no see."
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the two of them, a reporter guessed to the colleague next to him: "Tell me, Taylor's rumored boyfriend, could it be Li?"
The colleague sneered and waved his hands again and again. Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"Taylor protected her boyfriend so well that it was impossible to reveal any information. How could she take pictures with her boyfriend so openly."
But the reporter had a different opinion: "Could it be that they know we think so, so they are so bold?"
The colleague still waved his hand. His opinion is: If they can think of the second floor, they must also be able to think of the fourth floor...
In the infinite "matryoshka" of the two reporters, the big screen on the scene gave the starting list for tonight:
First-year team: Mike Conley, Li Wan, Kevin Durant, Horford, Oden;
Sophomore Team: Rajon Rondo at No. [-], Brandon Roy at No. [-], Rudy Gay at No. [-], Aldridge at No. [-], Andrea Bargnani at No. [-] ;
When he saw the lineup, Li Wan secretly gritted his teeth.
In his impression, 06 was a small year, so he had the idea of breaking the record, but now seeing the lineup on the opposite side, he couldn't help shaking his head.The lineup is not bad!
Rajon Rondo and Roy, this combination is not weak even if it is compared with the starting backcourt of 30 teams.
The flank next to him is Rudy Gay, who was called "the next Kobe" by Jerry West. Although it turned out that the logo man was talking nonsense, it was enough to prove this guy's ability.
Not to mention the insiders Aldridge and Bargnani, especially Aldridge, in another year, he will be recognized by the "sky hook", saying that he plays like himself...
Ten thousand dollars, bah, this game is not easy to play!
Kobe looked at the second-year lineup, especially Brandon Roy, and looked at the first-year lineup. He felt that he was stable!He patted the [-] knives rolled up in his pocket, and said to himself: "I knew I wouldn't take it!"
Kevin Garnett, who was sitting next to him, also felt that the second-year team was more stable, and joked: "You should have agreed to kiss the donkey's ass..."
Kobe felt that this made sense, and nodded deeply.Li Wan was looking at him at this time, and he deliberately nodded a little wider, for fear that Li Wan would not see him.
It turned out that Li Wan's gaze...
It looks like it's next to him...
He turned his head and saw Taylor Swift, who was four or five seats apart, resting his hands on his knees and his chin, also looking at Li Wan with a smile on his face.
Kobe: ...
It's clearly a movie of three people, but I don't deserve a name.
Feeling ignored, Kobe was very upset, and sat up straight angrily, with his hands wrapped around his chest. One second, two seconds, three seconds, his expression suddenly changed.
Turning his head abruptly, he found that Taylor was still looking at Li Wan...
It's not... is it?
Kobe found that he seemed to know something extraordinary!
"Rudy likes to play with the ball very much. I don't know how many times he has been scolded by the coach for this."
"Aldridge hates confrontation. If you can force him to the basket, there is a way to limit his offense. Don't give him the opportunity to play in the low post. It is difficult to limit."
Li Wan didn't know that Kobe had discovered something tricky, and he was integrating the information his teammates knew.
The strength on paper on the opposite side is definitely stronger than them. Roy squeezed out Deron Williams this year and entered the Western Conference bench. He is a real All-Star guard.
Compared with him, his All-Star starter is a bit fake...
Their only advantage lies in their tacit understanding. The five starters on the opposite side are from four teams, and on the first-year team, although they are also from different teams, three of them are teammates from the same university.
The same is true on the bench.
Another advantage that is not an advantage, the opposite Roy, Aldridge and Rudy Gay, from the Trail Blazers and Grizzlies, are teammates of Oden and Conley, they know something about these three people, even other players Details that even the team scouts don't notice.
This is common. The weaknesses of Oden and Conley are equally familiar to the opposite side.
only……
Still the same problem, they are not from the same team!
Li Wan's brain was running at high speed, looking for the possibility of winning.
There wasn't much urgency when the second-year team came on the field, and that made him notice.
Before officially playing, he said to the other four starters: "Listen, we don't have time to perform. From the beginning, we will play it like March Madness!"
Kevin Durant watched the others nod, a little embarrassed.
Although he was in college with unparalleled firepower, it was a pity that he failed to lead the team to the national competition, that is to say...
He doesn't understand what it's like to be in March Madness.
Li Wan noticed this and thought about it, and patted him on the shoulder before going on stage: "It's okay, just treat the opponent as me!"
Kevin Durant: ...
But he had to admit that Li Wan was right.
Thinking that the five people on the opposite side were all Li Wan, he was furious at that time, his veins popped up, and the "small universe" exploded immediately.
"beep!"
With the whistle of the referee, the ball flew into the sky, and the 08 All-Star Weekend Rookie Challenge officially started.
Amidst the torrent of cheers from the fans at the scene, Oden succeeded in jumping the ball.
Mike Conley crossed the half court with the ball, looked at the "poker face" in front of him, showing his tacit cooperation with Li Wan in college, and handed the ball to Li Wan.
Rajon Rondo looked at Roy who was following behind Li Wan, and had to make up in front of Li Wan to prevent him from pulling out the shooting space, so he shot immediately.
Mike Conley quickly rushed into the three-point line from the open space left by Rajon Rondo. Li Wan then returned the ball to him. The fast speed kept Roy out of position.
The second-year team continued to "tear down the east wall and make up the west wall". The insider Aldridge came out to make up for it, the ball was given from his side, and Oden easily ended the offense.
If you are a student at Ohio University, you will definitely be familiar with this tactic.
It was one of Ohio's most-used plays in the NCAA last year.
This tactic mainly uses Mike Conley's explosive power to threaten the opponent's inside formation and form a passing opportunity.
Although Conley is only 1 meters tall and his style of play is not very gorgeous, but his physical fitness is very strong. Just look at his scouting report and you will know: bare feet are 85 meters, wingspan is 1.82 meters, and the standing reach reaches 1.97 meters , take off 2.4 cm in place, take off 90 meters in run-up, and reach a maximum height of 1.03 meters. The 3.43/3 field sprint takes only 4 seconds, and the body fat rate is 3.09%.
It is also this almost abnormal data that made him the first point guard to be selected in 07.
At this moment, through Roy's pursuit and defense, it can be seen how terrifying his explosive power is.
"Yellow Mamba" really can't catch up!
The three people in Ohio pointed to each other. At this time, it seemed that everything had really returned to college.
Li Wan supported and communicated by the side, and Mike Conley was responsible for disrupting the opponent's defense as an arrow. After judging the position of his teammates, he played or passed the ball himself, and then Oden finished it, or Cook made a second heavy hit.
Turning around, Rajon Rondo just got the ball in the backcourt, and his "poker face" was even more square.
because……
He hadn't passed halftime, and Mike Conley was already watching from a distance with his "telescope".
I*!
Forget about the regular season, but the Rookie Challenge?
He glanced at Li Wan, the "instigator" next to him. It was this hanging man who popularized this disgusting defensive style in the league.
Don't fight for face and breath, the stage of the Rookie Challenge, people are so loose, and they don't make a move. Rajon Rondo's poker face is placed wherever he puts it, and he throws it when he pulls it up. His posture is so stiff.
With a sound of "Boom", in the CCTV-5 studio, Zhang Weiping opened his mouth with a big smile, showing his smoky yellow teeth, and shouted: "Oh, there is no such thing as Rajon Rondo!"
Oden was at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Aldridge. Aldridge was good at grabbing rebounds, so Oden stuck in his position and let Horford grab the rebound.
Bargnani, the first pick in 06, is 2 meters tall and averaged 13 rebounds per game.
This board grabbing ability cannot be said to be weak, it can only be said to be non-existent.
The ball was passed from Horford's hand to Li Wan's. Looking at Roy who was approaching, he quickly passed it to Conley who was in the front, and the counterattack was completed in an instant.
The first-year team showed a lot more athleticism than the sophomore team.
4-0!
When Rajon Rondo saw the counterattack speed on the opposite side, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Such a quick counterattack was caused by his reckless three-pointer.
In the frontcourt this time, he tried his best to ignore Mike Conley's expression of provoking him to shoot, and waited for Aldridge to settle down, allowing him to play singles with the ball.
Oden's constant confrontation put enough pressure on him. Although Aldridge made a neat move, he completed a beautiful turnaround jumper. The ball "clanged" and fell out of the basket.
Horford once again protected the rebound against Bargnani, found Conley, and gave him the ball.
Kevin Durant had no sense of presence in the first two attacks. Seeing that Conley was holding the ball again, his enthusiasm for running without the ball suddenly weakened. Li Wan noticed this and shouted at him; " Man, how you played in the Sonics, it's the same now!"
Du Lao 1.5 didn't understand what Li Wan meant, but he started to move his feet honestly, drawing a "circle" in the left half.A beautiful back run widened the distance with Rudy Gay. Li Wan, who received the ball on the other side, quickly hit the ball in the high position on the left. When the ball bounced, Kevin Durant was almost there. , the height of the ball bounce is a bit low.
This guy's passing skills are really bad!
Kevin Durant muttered, lowered his waist to receive the ball, and raised his hand to shoot. Rudy Gay showed his physical fitness and stopped him.
Tricking his center of gravity forward, Durant took the ball and took a big step, whistling past him like a sports car with a big stride.
Others "step by step" rely on the swift first step, while Kevin Durant surpasses others in one step by relying on his big stride and big foot.Rush into the basket with a slanted Tomahawk dunk to complete the score.
Surprised all four!
The audience shouted again and again.
The No. 07 pick in [-] fully demonstrated his physical coordination ability that was extremely inconsistent with his height.
However, Kevin Durant was not happy when he returned to defense.
Lee Wan's timely pass speaks to a problem...
This guy has done a thorough research on his "body"!
Otherwise, how could his pass be so timely!
Thinking of Li Wan hiding in the small dark room studying his own video, showing a "hehehe" smirk, Kevin Durant's feet went numb.
How can there be such a perverted person in this world!
No wonder I can't beat him!
Kevin Durant is determined that when he returns to Seattle this time, he will also hide in a small dark room to study Li Wan's "body".
After several consecutive attacks, the second-year team gradually felt that the rookies on the opposite side were playing a bit fiercely!
Are you so serious?
But it was just a discovery. They didn't have much reaction. Rudy Gay asked for the ball on the right flank. He hasn't touched the ball since the start of the game.
Facing Kevin Durant's defense and rushing all the way to the basket, Rudy Gay was about to show off his explosive physical fitness when he suddenly found...
Where do so many hands come from above the ball I'm holding?
"Snapped!"
The crisp sound of hitting the ball sounded.
Not one, not two, but three hands...
Rudy Gay encounters "three ghosts knock on the door".
Both Rajon Rondo and Li Wan accurately predicted the landing of the ball. Because Li Wan was closer, he took the ball in his hands ahead of time. Rajon Rondo watched the ball in front of him being taken away. Willing to continue to press, but at this moment, Li Wan made a beautiful dribble behind his back and gave the ball to the other hand.
Rondo, whose center of gravity shifted too much, was unable to change direction and move laterally immediately, and watched Li Wan break through and quickly descend.
Kevin Durant caught the ball again in the frontcourt, smashed the ball with one hand too hard, staggered when he landed, and was tripped by the camera on the sidelines, straight to the front of the 45-year-old The black aunt fell down in her arms, and there was a "Mary Su style kiss on the ground".
This turned the cheers originally caused by his dunks into exclamations of a little surprise, and some female fans subconsciously covered their mouths; fortunately, I didn't sit there.
The big screen at the scene gave a high-definition close-up. I don’t know who stuck out his tongue anyway.
How do you feel?
Auntie was quite happy. Looking at Kevin Durant's back, she pouted and smiled with satisfaction.
Kevin Durant said silently in his heart: Be Scarlett, be Scarlett, be Scarlett!
At the same time try to ignore the eyes of others.
Wave after wave of offensive, the score came to 16 to 4...
16 points for the first-year team, 4 points for the second-year team...
Kobe had a look of disbelief.
The second-year team has an All-Star, three core teams, and a team starter. With such a lineup, let a bunch of rookies play hard?
No face!
Kevin Garnett didn't expect this to happen. Thinking about what he said just now, he rubbed his sore face and said happily, "Fortunately, I didn't agree to kiss the donkey's ass..."
The second-year team finally realized that something was wrong, but they couldn't stop the first-year team who had already launched an offensive. The scores of the two sides began to rise alternately, but the point difference remained at 12 points.
After 13 minutes in the first half, both sides made substitutions one after another.
When Li Wan was still on the court, he assisted Yi Jianlian to complete two dunks, showing that he has better mobility than the usual [-]th position.
Just waiting for him to leave the field, Yi Jianlian, who is not active, has no chance to perform.
68 to 56. This is the score of the two teams after the first half. Mike Conley scored the most points in the first grade. He has already scored 15 points. With Li Wan's restraint and Kevin Durant's long-range threat , The opponent's lineup is drawn very quickly, and he can show his physical fitness very well.
If Conley is a little greedy, let alone more, it is still no problem to average 20 points per game, but he is a more traditional point guard who gives priority to serving his teammates.
But the two career-high averages later surpassed 20 points per game.
In addition, Oden had 10 points and Kevin Durant had 10 points.
Li Wan only scored 8 points, and his efficiency was very high. He made 5 of 4 shots and basically scored all his shots. He also sent out 8 assists.
Oden, Kevin Durant, Conley, including Horford, each ate at least one of his "cakes."
The scores of the second-year teams were almost the same. They almost played in turns in the first half. Whoever felt that their presence was not enough would strengthen their offense.
You are here, you have to leave some traces of yourself, right?
However, the other side also saw how eager the first grade was for the victory in tonight's game.
If they want to win so seriously, they must not let the opponent win.
Who doesn't know that the first-year team hasn't won the second-year team for several years?
This rule can't be broken in their hands in 06.
Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to say it!
In the 06 class, you were first beaten by the 05th class, and then by the 07th class. No wonder you are young draft picks.
This word...
Can you feel comfortable listening?
Can't lose!
Absolutely can't lose!
There was fire in the eyes of these guys.
Before the start of the second half, Li Wan deliberately walked around in front of Kobe, did not speak to him, just hummed: "I won today, ten thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars, today I won, ten thousand dollars ..."
The voice was neither too loud nor too small, just enough that Kobe could hear it.
"Wolf King" almost couldn't hold back, well, he really couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.
Kobe rolled his eyes speechlessly, his impression of the guys on the second-year team plummeted.
The second half started quickly.
As soon as Rudy Gay came up, he came up with a "head flat frame" one-handed dunk. Look at the elbow, the distance beyond the basket, can complete Carter's "hanging frame dunk".
The ball blew up the New Orleans Arena.
The second-year team also used this ball to show their attitude.
Rookies, don't think you can really win!
Mike Conley played "hand-to-hand" with Li Wan again, but this time when he drilled in again, Roy got stuck in the first step.
As a "brain worker" who is also known for his basketball IQ, halftime is enough for him to be familiar with Li Wan and Conley's style of play.
Conley was blocked and returned the ball to Li Wan. Li Wan used him as a cover and went inside. Roy turned around to defend in front of him, but watched the ball hit the inside from his thigh.
The trick is still the same!
If "hand-to-hand" doesn't work once, then twice!
Rudy showed his familiarity with Conley, caught up with the rhythm, and interfered with Conley's layup.
This time, Aldridge did not face Oden before grabbing the rebound. Instead, after observing the path of the ball, he quickly circled around and blocked the rebound, relying on experience to easily protect the rebound.
Rajon Rondo gets the ball and rushes.
You can defend me like this in positional warfare, but can you defend like this in fast break?
Looking for his teammates, Roy caught the ball and made a quick break.
There are only 8 points left in the score difference.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's return the ball!"
Li Wan took the initiative to catch the ball in the backcourt, pressed the rhythm, and then gave the ball to Mike Conley.
He dribbled the ball slowly, but when Li Wan came over from outside the three-point line, he immediately dribbled the ball sideways and rushed in under the cover.
Rondo bypassed Li Wan smoothly and stuck it in from the other side.
But in this way, Li Wan was released.
Conley hit the ball to Li Wan, which attracted Rudy's supplementary defense. Li Wan continued to give the ball. Kevin Durant landed at a high position and received the ball at the same time.
Oden grabbed the rebound and showed him as the reason he was the No. [-] pick.Solid basic skills, after the fake move, the hook was successfully completed.
These 2 points are very important.
After the start of the second half, the first-year team hadn't scored too many points yet!
Roy turned his head to show his personal ability, and hit a three-pointer against Li Wan.
The point difference is still 7 points away.
Kevin Durant was anxious to return another strike, but fortunately Horford desperately grabbed the rebound.
Li Wan thought for a while, and called a timeout.
The first-year head coach on the sidelines had a normal expression on his face, and even thoughtfully gave Li Wan a tactical board.
It is clear that the full authority is in your command.
No wonder, who made Li Wan so famous now!
Li Wan took the tactical board and at the same time winked at him desperately. He was stunned for a while, and his mature eyesight made him understand what Li Wan meant.
He waved his hand to let Durant rest off the court first, and called on Daiquan Cook.
He looked at Li Wan again.
Is that what you mean?
Li Wan secretly praised him.
Compared with the overall offensive ability, the current Kevin Durant is definitely above Cook.
But Cook's confrontation ability is much stronger than him, and Kevin Durant doesn't have much room to play against Rudy Gay, who is strong and has outstanding physical fitness.
Another point is that Cook is more familiar with their style of play.
And Kevin Durant...
Li Wan is familiar with him, but he is not familiar with Li Wan!
At the beginning of the second half, he missed two shots. At such a critical time, Kevin Durant pursed his lips, but he had no objection, and consciously sat on the bench.
Cook looked excited, and Li Wan said: "Okay, this is our greatest advantage, let's show our tacit understanding!"
1, there should be more points tomorrow, just finish writing the climax of the transfer to the Magic.
