Basketball: Start with the nerve knife

Chapter 7 Who Are You

Chandler didn't respond to the ridicule, he was still thinking about Li Wan's fast break dunk just now.

Before the draft, he had confronted Li Wan in the New York Knicks' training camp. He shouldn't have such physical fitness!

Phil Handy was also taken aback for a moment, and immediately found Li Wan's physical test data.This was left by Li Wan during his trial training with the Lakers on June 6.

In about a month, his physical fitness has improved significantly?

In fact, Li Wan has not focused on improving his physical fitness.

The reason why it seems that his athletic ability is better than the original is completely brought to him by the longer and more resilient Achilles tendon.

A more powerful "engine" can naturally start faster.

Chandler's physical fitness is only at the upper level in the league, so it's normal not to catch up with him.

As for the jump height...

Li Wan is already taller than Chandler at 2 meters tall. Coupled with his excellent wingspan, it is easy for people to misunderstand that he can jump so high.

Nate Robinson played one with the ball himself, faster breakthrough speed and stronger body. Although he is only 1 meters tall, he forced the matchup abruptly, playing like a No. 75 player" LeBron James".

There is really no challenge for him to play this level of game now.

He shouldn't have come...

Nate Robinson was a rookie in 05. He came off the bench for the Knicks last season and averaged 10.1 points per game.At the beginning of the new season, he is a third grader.

In the summer league, most of the league's fringe players and undrafted players.

He is here, a bit like "father beating son".

At the transition of offense and defense, Li Wan still took the ball in the backcourt and dribbled through the half court by himself. Chandler no longer looked down on him at the beginning.

After going through the attack and defense at the beginning of the game, he could clearly feel that Li Wan had grown a lot.

Is that the benefit of being in the league at 19?
grow so fast...

Chandler has practiced a lot in the past month, but at the age of 21, his physical condition has basically taken shape, and his style of play has gradually taken shape. After a month of practice, he can't feel any changes in himself.

Li Wan's progress made him a little apprehensive. There is still one and a half months before the start of the new season. Who knows how much stronger he will be when we meet in the new season.

Chandler, who showed a tough defensive attitude, made it difficult for Li Wan to dribble.

However, he still protected the ball very well and waited for his teammates to respond.

Judging from his ball-handling performance this round, Phil Handy is a little convinced that his ball-handling level has indeed improved. Although he has not yet reached a very proficient level, Li Wan couldn't hold the ball at all a month ago.

The speed of this progress is really fast enough.

If he knew that Li Wan had improved his dribbling to this level within half a month, he would be even more surprised.

"Dangdang!"

The ball left Li Wan's hand and never came back. This is the summer league.

The Lakers' offense in this round ended in a strike.

"Little Potato" looked for an opportunity to hold the ball for Chandler, but Li Wan was very smart to grab a position in advance to prevent Nate Robinson from easily passing the ball.

Nate, who tried to no avail, attacked by himself, and once again he drove to the basket by himself, picking the basket and scoring.

Compared with the pass just now, he is much more decisive in attacking with the ball.He was already a master of chaotic warfare, and his meticulous organization and attack belonged to Deng Chao making his own movie. - useless.

Following Li Wan's example, Chandler tried to grab a position in advance to prevent the Lakers from passing the ball to him. Noticing this, Li Wan pretended to approach Marcus who was holding the ball, but while reaching out for the ball, Quickly walk toward the basket without the ball.Chandler grabbed the position early and was thrown far away.When he caught up again, Li Wan had already received the ball and made a shot.

CIC...

That must be gone!

Chandler is ready to grab the rebound confidently.

Unexpectedly, the ball fell into the net in response, and the goal was very straightforward.

In, in?

Chandler stared blankly at Li Wan who had once again turned into the "Dragon King with Crooked Mouth", and couldn't believe it.Phil Handy was still holding Li Wan's scouting report, and when he saw Li Wan making a mid-range shot, he showed a grandfather looking at his phone.

——Lack of scoring methods, and lack of stability in long-range shooting from the outside.

This is not voted...

Very good!
While Phil Handy was watching the scouting report, Li Wan played another attack, still the same catch and shoot, and the ball went into the basket steadily again.

Who are you!
Chandler wanted to ask that question.

My physical fitness is better, I can dribble the ball, and I can catch the ball and complete mid-range shots...

Is this still the same Li Wan?

What a big change!

Phil Handy threw the scouting report to the staff next to him. At least in this game, this report about Li Wan was inaccurate.

Able to shoot suddenly, and explosive...

When Chandler defended Li Wan, he hesitated a little more.

Li Wan, who has played "Sekiro", decisively called the left pick-and-roll, but when his teammates came up, he didn't go that side, but went from the right, holding the ball.

In the confrontation, he put the basket into the frame.

6 points in a row!
At this time, there is still more than 1 minute before the end of the first quarter...

It may not sound crazy to score 6 points in a row, especially if this is the stage of summer league.

But when this happened to Li Wan, a guy who averaged 06 points per game in the 07-6.6 NCAA season, it was a bit unbelievable.There is no doubt that the intensity of confrontation in the summer league exceeds that of the NCAA.

Moreover, the person guarding him is Chandler, a 21-year-old rookie with very good immediate combat ability.

Being able to play such a performance in the more intense summer league can only show that Li Wan has improved.

In fact, he did improve.

Standing on the sidelines, Phil Handy has been able to tell at least 3 things about Li Wanhao's changes.

Li Wan, who opened up the offensive end, continued his state and scored another 6 points in the second quarter.

At halftime, he had 12 points.

In contrast, Chandler, who is characterized by immediate combat power, only scored 5 points in the first half.Not even half of him.

It's just that in the fourth quarter of the game, Li Wan's scoring efficiency became lower due to his physical fitness, and the frequency of mistakes also increased.At the end of the game, he made 19 of 8 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 18 points. In addition, he had 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 5 fouls and 5 turnovers.

The Lakers also lost to the New York Knicks 86-95.

"Little Potato" Nate Robinson scored a game-high 24 points. He really "quacked and killed" on this stage.If Li Wan remembered correctly, he was also the final MVP of this summer league.

Chandler, who won the ball, was not happy, and left sullenly as soon as the game ended.

After the whole game, he barely scored in double figures and scored 10 points, but his shooting percentage was an ugly 10 of 3 shots, plus 6 fouls and 7 turnovers.

He didn't play like a 21-year-old NCAA junior at all, but like a "four-star" high school student who just graduated from high school.

Before entering the passage, he secretly looked for Li Wan's figure, wanting to speak harsh words to him in his heart, but when the two looked at each other, Li Wan had already turned into the "crooked dragon king", with one hand on his hip with a smile that was not a smile, Waiting for him to turn around!

Chandler was like a mouse after seeing a cat, and he left the arena a little faster.
