I'm not really a role player

Chapter 9 Crushed One-on-One
North Camps and Lake Austin, Li Ke chose North Camps.

In terms of conditions, Lake Austin must be better, but there is no way, the house in Lake Austin has to wait, but Li Ke has no time to wait.

He could only go out and take another taxi to North Camps. It took him two or three hours to rent a two-story apartment for a year.

Then the next day, he went to the Frank Irving Center for his first practice in Austin.

By the way, communicate with Tucker and Daniel Gibson.

"So, you have no place to go during the off season, so you can only go back to school for training?"

On the training ground, Li Ke shot uncontested three-pointers one after another.

bang, bang, bang...

The crisp netting sound was as if it had never been heard before.

And his gasping question made Daniel Gibson roll his eyes.

Tucker is even more direct: "You are right, Sheldon, but I need to add that not only do we have nowhere to go during the offseason, but more importantly, we lack a training partner. I think your body shape is similar to mine, so it is very suitable to be my training partner."

Then, he squatted down and patted his two thick thighs, as if to say: Come on, come fuck me!
Li Ke is not afraid, just do it, who is afraid of who!
Daniel Gibson stuffed a basketball from a distance and looked lively with his arms crossed.

Li Ke, who took the ball, began to face the pressure brought by Tucker's defense.

"KD also arrived in the morning, and the freshmen have already arrived, but the old students..."

The passageway on the left side of the training ground, because it is relatively hidden, Rick Barnes often stands here and observes in secret.

At this time, Russell Spliman was still standing beside him, reporting the situation of the school team's assembly.

"Is that Sheldon Lee from Long Beach?"

"It's him, how did he meet PJ? This is too coincidental."

"PJ has always been the core of our defense. Once he leaves, more than half of the defense is empty. You said that Long Beach's Shelton has the ability to replace PJ. Now is a good time to test it."

On the training ground, Li Ke made a lunge and passed Tucker.

His speed was so fast that after Tucker turned around, he could only watch Li Ke make a layup.

Rick Barnes at the passageway shook his head: "Although the goal was scored, his ability with the ball is too bad."

Springman smiled and said nothing. He recruited Li Ke, and he didn't value the ball at all.

Tucker, who was scored by Li Ke, didn't care. He and Rick Barnes had the same opinion. Although he failed to defend the ball, Li Ke's poor ability to hold the ball has already shown that his opponent is just fast.

For the next ball, if Li Ke is not given space to rush up, the difficulty of defense will not be so great.

It was his turn to attack the ball, and Tucker decided to teach the thin Li Ke a lesson.

Knowing that Li Ke's speed is an advantage, Tucker naturally wanted to avoid this. He chose a crushing breakthrough. He didn't want to get rid of Li Ke at all, but relied on his strength, step by step, to reach the penalty area.

Finally turned around for a layup and made a successful hit.

"The strength difference is too much."

Rick Barnes again passed judgment, and this time, Splitman disagreed.

"Rick, that's PJ. His strength, even in the NBA, is unrivaled in his position!"

"Too……"

On the offensive end, Li Ke still relies heavily on his speed.

This time, Tucker didn't give him room to sprint easily.

"PJ has already begun to predict his next move... that's right... that's right again..."

On the court, Li Ke played very hard and was blocked by Tucker one after another. His poor ball control gradually became full of mistakes and omissions.

The impatience prevailed, Li Ke chose to turn halfway, and when he wanted to turn halfway further, he was already stuck to death by Tucker.

Li Ke had no choice but to turn over and shoot a jumper, and the thrown basketball hit the frame with a bang.

"call……"

On the court, Li Ke panted heavily and gave Tucker a thumbs up.

Tucker smiled, picked up the basketball, and handed it to Li Ke.

"Come again!"

Another round, this time, Li Ke learned to be smart.

If Tucker doesn't let him rush, then he will create space to rush.

"A step back? Good idea, but..."

When Rick Barnes shook his head, Tucker on the court took a step forward and accurately judged Li Ke's movements. He didn't want to look down.

"It's too tender, counting on him, it's better to count on KD's offense and defense."

It seems that there is no need to continue looking down on this duel.

On the training ground, Li Ke was ready to challenge Tucker's defense for the third time in a row.

A series of brief roars suddenly sounded in the ears——

"The task system is activated..."

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, the roaring sound continued continuously, and this time it was not too brief.

"Random task: Facing PJ Tucker, who is super defensive, you miss consecutive offenses, but the most valuable thing on the basketball court is persistence. If you can persist until you score a goal, you will be rewarded: Trait: D-level steel will."

"Random missions? Traits? What the hell are they?"

Although I still don't understand what this sudden task system is and what it does, even Li Ke, who only thinks with his butt, understands that at this time, he must persevere and complete this so-called task.

"Come again!"

……

After attacking five or six times in a row, Li Ke finally broke through Tucker's defense.

It was not accidental that this ball was won. Li Ke had been trying for five or six attacks, but for this ball, he made a sharp turn.

After successfully wiping Tucker, Li Ke completed a layup in one go.

"The task is completed, please choose the right time, enter the system, and receive the reward."

After scoring the goal, Li Ke was very excited, but Tucker stood straight to the top of the arc.

"It's your turn to defend, rookie."

In the attack after a long time, Tucker unexpectedly gave up his strength advantage, and after a realistic fake move, he accelerated past Li Ke in an instant.

He also seemed to have judged that Li Ke would chase after him. After taking two steps, he immediately stopped the brakes and hit a jumper on the spot.

Li Ke's defense was broken, and he just looked at it from the sidelines Spliman's point of view: "PJ's movements, Sheldon has judged correctly, but in terms of movements, he was a step slower, so..."

"So PJ scored a goal. His defensive judgment is not bad, but his experience is too poor."

On the court, Tucker gave the ball to Li Ke: "Now, it's your offensive round again."

Li Ke fell into a state of continuous attack, continuous failure, and struggle.

Then he happened to score a goal, returned to the defensive end, and continued to be educated by Tucker.

It's just that compared to offense, Li Ke's defensive performance is not so dismal, and he can still win one or two rounds.

But overall, he suffered his first painful defeat since time travel.

Tucker is too strong. For Li Ke now, no matter offense or defense, Tucker is super class.

Defense is Tucker's biggest selling point, and it goes without saying.

As for the offense, in the NCAA last season, Tucker was the top scorer at the University of Texas, which means that at this stage, Tucker's offense is top-notch.

"At both ends of the offense and defense, PJ has formed a crush. Obviously, Russell, the rookie you brought in still needs a long time to hone."

Rick Barnes turned to leave, but before leaving, he came to a conclusion.

Judging from Spliman's expression, he obviously agreed with this conclusion.

On the other side, on the court, although the one-on-one match was overwhelming, neither Li Ke nor Tucker had any intention of stopping it.

This extremely unbalanced one-on-one went on like this.
