Chapter 108 Playoffs, War Begins
With a killing intent covering his body, Li Du instinctively focused all his energy on his master, ready to deal with the enemy at any time.

Seeing Li Du's reaction, Shang Yun withdrew his momentum, and the murderous intent surrounding Li Du dissipated, and the huge mental pressure suddenly disappeared. Dizzy, he staggered and nearly fell to the ground.

"This is the difference between you on the court now and you at the beginning!" Shang Yun's voice sounded in Li Du's ear: "As you get more and more used to basketball, although your skills on the court are getting more proficient, but you still have to play. Because of this, you no longer give your opponent any mental oppression on the court."

Helping Li Du up, Shang Yun said seriously: "Xiao Du, I carefully watched those few games when you just became famous in the NBA. I don't know if you have noticed that in those games, your opponents faced When you saw you, your movements were unnatural and a little stiff. I still remember that after you stared at me unconsciously, two people kept avoiding you deliberately, and they were terrified of you. "

"Think about it, if they meet you again now, will they still be like this?" Shang Yun's words made Li Du wake up all of a sudden.

After the beginning of the season, as Kobe restrained himself, Li Du also restrained his aura. Although the defense was still efficient, although he could still give the opponent a sense of oppression, his opponent was not as vulnerable as he was at the beginning of the season. Shocked.

It was at that time that everyone's evaluation of Li Du gradually changed from "a nightmare for matchup players" to "excellent defensive player".Li Du still gained everyone's recognition by virtue of his defense, but his opponents never called him a "humanoid devil" again.

All of this is because Li Du restrained himself and no longer exerted mental oppression on his opponents. In the competition, he still used martial arts, but it was more like practicing, with a peaceful mind, rather than fighting against the enemy. As always, oppress the opponent with all his strength.

Seeing Li Du lowered his head and pondering, Shang Yun continued: "Among martial arts, practicing is a state of mind, cultivating one's body is a state of mind, and fighting is another state of mind. To practice, one must learn from Lao Tzu, and the heart is empty. Accept everything. To cultivate yourself, you must learn from Confucius, follow the rules, and never do anything that breaks the rules. You must fight like a devil, kill gods when you meet gods, and kill Buddhas when you meet Buddhas. Even your closest relatives will be crushed in front of you! "

"Yes, Master, you have taught us these principles since we were young, but when I was on the court, I actually thought that this sport was safe and didn't need to use the style of play, and gradually forgot a lot of things. Kobe also said that the court and the battlefield it's the same!"

Li Du raised his head, clasped his fists to salute Shang Yun: "Thank you, master, for your guidance, apprentice understands!"

"Well, it's good to understand." Shang Yun didn't ask much, and waved his hand, "Go, let everyone feel the power of Chinese martial arts on the court!"

"Yes!" Li Du saluted Shang Yunshen again, turned and left David Geffen Hospital.

When I got home, Priti was still filming and was not at home recently. After Li Du put his equipment away, he slowly stood in a three-body pose, and then closed his eyes. slowly emerged.

In his mind, Li Du examined his performance from another angle, and reconsidered how to deal with his opponent.

This station, has been standing until the sunset.Li Du opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a kind of understanding in his eyes: "Heart and body skills, mind and body skills... It turns out that the theory of Chinese martial arts can also be used on the court! Playoffs, the Suns, Nash..."

A few days later, on April 4, this was the first playoff game between the Lakers and the Suns.As early as a few days before the game, the Lakers held a collective meeting to discuss countermeasures. Zen master asked Li Du to: shoot with all his strength, try to limit Nash's scoring to less than 22 points, and limit assists to less than 10 times!
In terms of offense, Zen master asked Li Du to try his best to run every time he attacked. Even if he couldn't get a chance, he could disrupt the Suns' defense. Once an opportunity arises, he should shoot decisively. It doesn't matter whether it is a three-pointer or a two-pointer. Just do your best to keep the hit rate.

Up to now, there is no secret about the Suns' style of play. Their fast offense is based on Nash's advancement and backcourt rebounds.

With so many preparations before the game, the Lakers are full of confidence this time. After Li Du was alerted by Shang Yun, he played every game as a battle of life and death.So this time, Li Du's pre-match warm-up has changed again.

The movements are still the same, Li Du first practices a set of Baguazhang, and then Xingyi Wuxingquan.But this time, Li Du added strength and strength to his practice. Every punch would drive his body, and he would make sounds such as "hum" and "drink" in his nasal cavity, which added a lot of momentum out of thin air.

Seeing the scene of Li Du warming up, Stoudemire patted Nash lightly and said in a low voice, "Steve, look at that guy Li Du."

In fact, there is no need for Stoudemire to remind him. Nash has already seen the difference in Li Du today. He smiled bitterly and said, "Amale, we will have a tough battle today. Apart from you and me, our team's third scoring point must Open it, otherwise it will be difficult to win!"

In fact, Nash said it very euphemistically. He played against Li Du twice, and he was really impressed by Li Du's defense.And today, Nash always felt that Li Du seemed to have a very uncomfortable aura that haunted him all the time.

"It seems that there are rumors outside that after Li Du became famous at the beginning of the season, he deliberately restrained himself and rarely gave his best in the game. It is true! When it comes to the playoffs, this guy will no longer hold back. Be careful It's over!" Nash secretly decided in his heart that he must break through Li Du's defense today, and he can't be almost blocked by Li Du like last time!

After Li Du practiced boxing, he went back to the rest area and sat down without talking. His teammates also knew that this was his habit of maintaining his state, so they didn't bother him.Li Du closed his eyes and let go of his mind. He didn't open his eyes until he was about to go on stage, and let out a long breath. All the confusion, hesitation and worries seemed to be vomited out in this breath. .

After exhaling this breath, Li Du felt refreshed, both physically and mentally in peak condition.So he nodded to his teammates, indicating that he was ready.Everyone surrounded Zen master, waiting for Zen master to give the last order before the game.

Everyone has already done things like tactical analysis and layout, and now Master Zen is actually just briefly clarifying today's tasks and style of play.

Kobe quietly said to Li Du: "Li, I'm watching yours today, block Steve!"

Li Du stared at Nash and said, "Boss, don't worry! I will let him experience it again, what is despair!"
