The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 88 Talented Offensive Performance

In the NBA, veterans have a special status. After all, everyone will grow old. In the locker room, everyone will look up to veterans, but on the court, there is no such tradition.

Competitive sports are very cruel. If your physical condition declines, even if you are a superstar, the players on the field will still play well. If you pinch the persimmon, no one will dislike it.

So Li Ze sometimes wonders why some old guys are always so confident?Don't they watch football?Or do they think they are really good?
On the Thunder's first attack, the tortoise handed over the ball directly after a half-court dribble. He was in poor physical condition, so he had to slow down on the court. After receiving the ball, Li Ze gestured to his teammates, indicating that he did not need to go up to cover.

Li Ze looked at Rasul Butler who was defending him in front of him, directly dribbled the ball with a cross step, and quickly pulled back. Rasul Butler lost his defensive focus by Li Zehuang.

Then Li Ze changed direction in front of his body twice in a row with a great sense of rhythm, completely swaying the defense, and made an emergency stop near the free throw line to shoot a jumper.

"Shua" mid-range jumper succeeded.

As a team with the lowest record, the Clippers have no defensive discipline at all. It is basically impossible to let the veterans in the team do the dirty work and work hard on defense. Walking is their normal state.
After scoring the goal, Li Ze didn't say anything, and quickly returned to the defense with a blank face. The big guys generally don't bother to talk trash to the small players, and if they want to talk, they talk to the star.

Britney on the sidelines smiled and waved at Li Ze after seeing Li Ze's goal.

Smiling and giving a wink to the blonde sweet girl, Annie who was on the side almost burst out laughing seeing Li Ze's performance like this.

"Okay, silly girl, didn't you see him pretending to be cool on the court? As soon as you waved your hand, this guy changed his face immediately!"

Annie smiled and whispered to Britney next to her.

"No wonder he had a serious face just now when he scored the goal. I laughed so hard, baahaha!"

The blond sweet girl laughed out loud when she heard what Annie said, and she went straight into Annie's arms, and the two beautiful girls got into a mess.

The director at the scene naturally noticed such a beautiful scenery, and specially gave the two beautiful girls a long shot.

"I admit, I'm a bit jealous of Kayce, guys, for the sake of the beautiful girl, we have to win this game, come on!"

The Clippers' home commentator also teased Li Ze.

The old guy from the Clippers was directly slapped in the face as soon as he installed an X, and he was a little embarrassed. Baron Davis dribbled through halftime and directly played a pick-and-roll with Marcus Camby.

After disassembling, he quickly gave the ball to Marcus Camby, who was running down. After the latter caught the ball, he directly hit Jeff Green twice, turned over and shot in the depths of the penalty area.

Jeff Green is still at a disadvantage against the 211cm big man, and the opponent has enough experience, so he can easily handle him.

After halftime, Li Zeyun signaled Jeff Green to go up to cover, and at the same time made an offensive gesture to his teammates, and after quickly handing the ball to Jeff Green, Li Zeyun pulled to the bottom corner.

Durant came up through an off-ball screen to take over the pass. Jeff Green quickly bounced out after a false screen.

Al Thornton is a player in the same class as Durant, but he was selected with the 14th pick in the first round. There is a clear gap in talent between the two.

Durant felt the defender sticking up, and suddenly pulled back with his right hand, causing the defender to lose his center of gravity, then leaned back slightly, and shot a jumper.

"Shua" scored 2 points easily.

Durant's movements are large and his release point is high. Al Thornton can only watch helplessly as the opponent scores the ball.

There were also small cheers in the Staples arena, which were the voices of some Thunder fans.

"Incredible talent, every time I see Durant's ability to handle the ball, I will sincerely praise him!"

The commentator immediately praised Durant after seeing the goal.

The Clippers’ tactical arrangement before the game should be to play more inside. This time, Baron Davis directly played a pick-and-roll with Kaman. Krstic saw the turtles squeezed by and was a step slower, so he hurried forward. resistance.

But Baron Davis hit the ground and passed through the defense, and Kaman succeeded in eating cakes under the basket.

"Russell, how do you feel?" Kostic asked with concern when he saw that Guigui was sweating profusely.

"No problem, the ball is my problem!" Guigui still firmly said that he has no problem.

Li Ze also noticed this situation, but there was nothing he could do. After halftime, he motioned for Krstic to come up to cover.

The high-quality screen directly allowed Li Ze to get rid of the defense. He dribbled the ball with his left hand and accelerated.

"Shua" 2-pointer hit steadily.

Li Ze, who retreated, shook his head secretly in his heart. This defense is basically non-existent. It's really embarrassing for old Deng Levy.
Kaman is very active on the offensive end, but the effect is not very good. Kostic is not afraid of this kind of stance attack. After two hits, he didn't push the defense, but he didn't pass the ball, and he just turned over and shot a jumper. shot.

"Bang" hit an iron in anger, Krstic protected the rebound and passed it directly to Li Ze.

Li Ze accelerated immediately after receiving the ball. Seeing that the tortoise did not rush out, he could only quickly dribble across the half court. Marcus Camby had already returned to the basket. stop the ball.

Converted threes, unguarded, jump shot.

"Shua" 3-pointer hollow into the net.

After scoring the goal, Li Ze shrugged his shoulders and quickly returned to the defense. Marcus Camby was a little speechless seeing this situation. What kind of shooting choice is this?Is this really going in?

After the goal was scored, there was a burst of cheers from the Staples scene, and UCLA fans and Li Ze's little fans screamed.

At this time, the referee stopped the game and coach Brooks requested a timeout.

Seeing Guigui's pained face, Li Ze immediately felt bad. This unlucky kid probably won't be able to stand it anymore. After all, even a good man can't stand Sanpoxi, and Guigui did it more than three times this afternoon.

In 08, Pierce also couldn't stand the diarrhea, so he went off the court directly?It seems that the tortoise has had enough of this.

"Russell, go directly to the hospital for a checkup. You should listen to us this afternoon. How do you feel?"

Coach Brooks was also very anxious seeing the tortoise in such pain. This is really a disaster.
"I feel okay, coach, but I have to go back to the locker room to rest for a while, no need to go to the hospital."

Guigui said he was okay, and finally walked back to the locker room with the support of the team's staff.

"Sefolosha, pay attention to defense after playing, don't hesitate when you have the opportunity, Kayce, Kevin, play aggressively, we need to speed up the offensive rhythm, and play more pick-and-rolls at positions 4 and 5."

Hearing Brooks' head coach's arrangement, Li Ze immediately signaled that he understood that he would get more points to make up for Turtle's share.

Back from the timeout, the Clippers sent the ball to Kaman on the inside again. The latter caught the ball continuously, turned around and combined the ball. Jeff Green, who was assisting in the defense, cut the ball and directly gave it to Lee. Ze.

After Li Ze received the ball, he accelerated to push the conversion attack with all his strength, and noticed that Byron Davidson came up to delay.

Directly dribbled the ball away from the opponent with a large back, saw that Durant had passed the three-point line, and immediately sent a precise long pass.

Durant took off with the momentum and made a heavy dunk with both hands!
Durant who completed the dunk with a "kuang" immediately gave Li Zebi a thumbs up.

There was another burst of cheers in the Staples Arena, which made the Clippers fans a little embarrassed. After all, this is their home stadium!

Baron Davis saw Kaman still asking for the ball after he dribbled halfway. This time he ignored the opponent and asked Marcus Camby to pick and roll. Facing Li Ze's defense, he suddenly came directly. A step-back jumper.

"Shua" against the defense, the 3-pointer went into the net hollowly.

Li Ze really didn't expect the opponent to throw this ball directly, so he made a cold shot!Careless, the defense did not keep up.

However, in the rest of the first quarter, the Clippers felt what it means to be an unreasonable young man and what it means to be crushed by talent.

Facing Marcus Camby's defense behind the pick-and-roll, Li Ze directly stepped back and made a 3-point shot after continuous dribbles under the crotch.

"Shua" scored a 3-pointer.

Facing Kaman's defense in a pick-and-roll, Durant dribbled the ball with his left hand to raise his center of gravity, pretended to break through, saw the opponent move back slightly, and made a jumper from outside the three-point line.

"Shua" 3-pointer hollow into the net.

Li Ze and Krstic dribbled the ball with their right hands and accelerated their breakthrough after the pick-and-roll. They noticed that Kaman's defensive position was too far ahead, and they suddenly made a pass from the back and directly tore apart the opponent's defense.

Krstic catches the ball and makes a one-handed dunk!

The old Dunleavy saw how efficient the Thunder's offense was, and Marcus Camby scored 2 points on his side in the past few rounds, so he directly asked for a timeout in desperation.

Back from the timeout, although Baron Davis scored another 3-pointer, the team's defense was a little bit overwhelmed.

Li Ze noticed that the Clippers' pick-and-roll defense had turned into a squeeze and no longer switched defenses. Faced with this situation, Li Ze made a gesture to his teammates to signal everyone to pull away.

Facing Rasoul Butler's defense, Li Ze quickly pulled back after crossing the dribble. After dribbling the ball behind his right hand, he suddenly turned around sharply and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball.

This lightning-like shaking made Li Ze successfully throw off the opponent's defense and head towards the penalty area. Seeing Marcus Camby quickly recover, Li Ze flicked his wrist and directly gave the ball to Jeff Green in the bottom corner .

The latter catches the ball and makes a jumper from outside the 3-point line.

"Shua" scored 3 points in the open space.

The old Dunleavy looked more and more depressed from the sidelines, how can this be played?Can this still be played?
Next, Durant did the same thing, constantly hitting breakthrough points with Li Ze. The Thunder's offensive rhythm was fast, while the Clippers could only play piecemeal, and basically couldn't score.

After the end of the first quarter, the Clippers' home commentator saw the score of 34 to 22 on the court, and couldn't help saying:
"Maybe this year's Rookie of the Year is Kayce, we missed a talent!"
