I just want to play healthy basketball

Chapter 32 You fell down before I tried my best! (for collection)

After the first quarter, the players of the two teams left the field, and the coaches of each other began to encourage or reprimand the players.

He Li is the former, while Kwame Brown happens to be the latter.

He Li made 8 of 4 shots in the first quarter, plus 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 10 points. Compared with the previous few days, this scoring data must be a little worse.

But now the score between the two teams is 26 to 24. Not only did the score not draw, the Bucks are still behind by 2 points. If this continues, He Li probably has a chance to reach the fourth quarter.

After the fourth quarter, even if He Li can't score 34.4 points per game, he still has a chance to score 30 points in this game.

Coach Stotts of the Bucks praised He Li after He Li and others left the court, hoping that He Li would continue to work hard, and then said a few words to Reid, hoping that Reed would find opportunities to play for other teammates instead of blindly Forcibly shot.

Reid's face was not very good after being criticized, but because the Bucks fell behind in the score, there were many reasons for him, and he knew he was wrong, so he didn't say much.

Kwame Brown on the Wizards side is almost the same as Reid, with an extremely ugly face!
Kwame Brown is the future star selected by the Wizards with the No. 2 pick, but in the first quarter of this game, his desire to attack was extremely low. He only made two shots, and the two shots were only 1 of [-] from the field.

Is this the performance that the No. [-] pick should have?Is this the responsibility that the No. [-] pick should have?Those who didn't know thought that the Wizards used a second-round pick to select a blue-collar insider!

But then again, in fact, Kwame Brown's performance in the first quarter was not that bad, the offensive end was not strong, isn't there a defensive end?
Kwame Brown gave He Li a big favor in the first quarter, and also did a good job in limiting He Li's shooting rate and number of shots.

Kwame Brown scored 4 rebounds and 2 blocks in the first quarter. Although there were 2 fouls, there were no additional turnovers. Overall, it was okay.

But if you compare it with He Li, it's not so much that Kwame Brown prevented He Li, it's better to say that He Li prevented Kwame Brown.

It is for this reason that Wizards coach John Bach scolded Kwame Brown just after Kwame Brown came off the court.

John Bach is the former coach of the Bulls for three consecutive championships, the inventor of the Bulls Doberman Pinscher's defensive tactics, and also Jordan's mentor!

It was after receiving Jordan's invitation that John Bach deliberately came to the Wizards this summer and took over the Wizards Summer League team.

To a certain extent, John Bach's presence on this Wizards summer league team is to train Kwame Brown as soon as possible.

However, Kwame Brown's growth and performance have not met John Bach's expectations.

Perhaps, John Bach is used to Jordan and Pippen who are indomitable and can grow rapidly in the face of adversity!Now that I see Kwame Brown, who has a higher surface talent than the previous two, the requirements for him have become higher, even to the point where Kwame Brown can't meet it.

And Kwame Brown's young heart has also become smaller and more fragile amid repeated criticism.

Seeing Kwame Brown, who was reprimanded as a primary school student on the sidelines and who dared not move, He Li generally understood why Kwame Brown's previous behavior was so strange and awkward.

In the past two days, the nearby media were reporting on He Li's explosive performance. Kwame Brown, as the No. [-] pick, will definitely be compared with He Li.

The Boston Summer League is constantly playing, Kwame Brown can't keep his ears off the window, and it's impossible for the Wizards to turn a deaf ear to the news.

In this case, Kwame Brown is easily influenced by the public opinion around him!
When Kwame Brown fell into it and was swayed by the constantly forming public opinions around him, these public opinions would form psychological pressure and become the shackles on Kwame Brown.

Kwame Brown was timid on the offensive end in the first quarter. It wasn't that Kwame Brown really didn't dare to play Heli, but that John Bach was a coach with a defensive background. He appreciated players who worked hard on defense more than offense.

Kwame Brown wants to save energy on the offensive end and strangle He Li on the defensive end.

Unexpectedly, He Li's shot is more reasonable, and if he can't hit, he will hand the ball over to his teammates.

In addition, He Li's ability to finish at the basket also exceeded Kwame Brown's expectations. As a result, it became difficult for Kwame Brown to guard He Li, and He Li defended Kwame Brown without taking a lot of shots.

During the first quarter, He Limei scored a goal on Kwame Brown's head, and undoubtedly hit Kwame Brown's fragile glass heart with a heavy hammer.

Kwame Brown has worked hard and failed to achieve corresponding results.After the end of the first quarter, Kwame Brown was scolded by coach John Bach, and his young heart was even more hurt.

In the second quarter of the game, Kwame Brown was still sent on the court.

Perhaps accepting the criticism of Coach John Bach, Kwame Brown began to regain the offensive methods at the basket, trying to win more points for the Wizards, maintain the status quo of leading the scoring, and open up some points when he has the opportunity.

However, Kwame Brown fought against He Li in the first quarter and helped his teammates defend. In addition, the Bucks' fast break really consumes energy. Kwame Brown faced the full-strength Mark Pope in the second quarter.

Mark Pope was the starting power forward in the Bucks Summer League before, and it was not long ago that He Li changed to power forward and was replaced on the bench.

Mark Pope is almost 30 years old. He entered the second round of the NBA after playing four years in college. This year he came to the summer league to fight for a contract extension next year.

As a veteran insider, Mark Pope has played in the NBA for three years. No matter in terms of skills and experience, Kwame Brown can’t hold a candle to him. Not to mention that Mark Pope has fully matured physically. Kwame Brown is only an 18-year-old high school student.

One is recharging his energy, waiting for work with leisure, and the other is exhausted and weak, what will happen?Needless to say, I know it!

Mark Pope's scoring ability was average, but he faced Kwame Brown and easily scored 8 points.

And Kwame Brown only played 5 minutes in the second quarter, and he fouled 2 more times. Although he took 7 shots, he only scored 3 goals.

Judging from the performance on the field and combined with the data, Kwame Brown is a garbage player with weak offense, defensive colander, and uncontrollable fouls.

I don't know if John Bach was blown away by Kwame Brown's hip-pulling performance, or because of Kwame Brown's foul troubles. In short, Kwame Brown was replaced before half of the second quarter.

It was also Kwame Brown who pulled his hips. The Bucks relied on the outstanding performance of Alston and Mark Pope in the second quarter to overtake the Wizards. At the end of the second quarter, the two teams scored 50 to 57.

In the third quarter, He Li and Reid played again, while Kwame Brown sat on the bench with an embarrassed face.

He Li saw that Kwame Brown didn't come up, so why didn't he take the opportunity to score points?
John Bach's defensive tactics are awesome, but no matter how awesome the tactics are, they still need to be executed!Really think that without Kwame Brown, the Wizards have inside players who can guard against him, the 16th pick in the first round who played the best performance in the Boston Summer League?

nobody!
No one is the enemy of He Liyihe!
Facing the flanking attack of the Wizards' outside players, Reed was not easy to shoot. In the third quarter, Reed had no objection to why he wanted the ball and took over the game.

Of course, He Li is not alone in his game. After the Wizards took the initiative to call a timeout, He Li pulled out to pick and roll for Reed. When it was confirmed that the Wizards had no one to double-team him, He Licai asked for the ball inside and scored with small hooks and mid-range shots.

一不小心，何力在第三节刷出了一个12投8中，罚球4中4，总计20分4篮板3助攻的数据。

It is worth mentioning that He Li scored 20 points in the third quarter, but the score between the two teams did not stretch too much. After all, the Wizards also have capable players.

Kwame Brown was not on the court. Although no one inside the Wizards could limit He Li, the outside players all felt good, which made Reed feel ashamed.

At the end of the third quarter, the two teams scored 79 to 88, and the Bucks only led by 9 points.

This also shows that He Li finally has a chance to play in the fourth quarter.

In the first half of the fourth quarter, Kwame Brown came up with great difficulty. Relying on recovering some physical strength, he helped the Wizards get 6 points, but there was a key mistake!

That is, Butter missed an empty basket with a hand, and then was picked up by Mark Pope. Mark Pope cooperated with Alstom to launch a fast break and scored 2 points.

Perhaps this move disappointed John Bach, so he quickly replaced Kwame Brown.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, coach Stotts, who saw some tricks, brought He Li back on the field.

Seeing this, He Li wanted to laugh, but he held back.

He Li played for another 2 minutes, scored 3 points on 3 of 6 shots, and then left the game.

With 3 minutes left in the game, the Bucks had a 15-point advantage. Wizards No. 40 pick Kwame Brown was sitting off the court, and the Bucks couldn't keep He Li on the court, scoring [-] points in garbage time.

In this regard, He Li didn't think it was a pity. He could score points at any time, and He Li didn't have a chance to score 40 points in his life!
It's a pity that He Li failed to defeat Kwame Brown with real swords and guns!

Today's game is like the most pretentious line in "Journey to the West": "I haven't exerted my strength yet, you will fall down!"

From the statistics, He Li has "defeated" Kwame Brown, the No. [-] pick, and is the biggest winner of the Boston Summer League!But from He Li's self-feeling, it's a pity that he failed to beat Kwame Brown, who was in full condition.

Perhaps, from now on, there will be no chance to beat Kwame Brown who is in full condition!
Just a John Bach scolded Kwame Brown, who averaged 20+10 per game, and added a Jordan who was even more harsh on his teammates... This picture is unimaginable.

Thinking of this, He Li suddenly felt very lucky: "Fortunately, I am not the champion!"
