Chapter 29 Another Suppression

Ray Allen stood on the spot with his hands on his hips. He couldn't figure out how this rookie just moved.Obviously he was rushing towards him, but he turned away the moment the two were about to collide, and the last moment he retreated was almost a step of two meters!If ordinary people backed up so hard, they would have lost their center of gravity and fell to the ground, but he was still able to catch the ball and shoot smoothly!Moreover, this rookie's shooting speed does not seem to be slower than his own!
Lewis came over and asked, "Ray, what's wrong with you? Isn't it just a three-pointer, let's just pay them back one more."

Ray Allen shook his head and said, "Rashad, you don't understand. That rookie's movements just now are too weird. I always have a feeling that his way of running is not yet fully mature. Once he matures , will be invincible!"

Lewis patted Ray Allen, and said with a smile: "Even if he is really unbeatable in the future, that is a matter of the future. Now you are better than him. Let's go, it's time for us to attack!" After finishing speaking, he He ran to the front field first.

Ray Allen sighed and ran over, just like what Lewis said, he couldn't keep up with Li Du, so how could Li Du keep up with him?

As soon as Ray Allen crossed the halfway line, Li Du posted it up, gnashing his teeth and said: "I will never let you slip this time!"

"Really? Come on!" Ray Allen didn't get angry at all, but chuckled lightly, and then started his own running.Constantly off the ball pick and roll, constantly changing directions, Li Du was blocked by others, so he had to let other teammates switch defenses, but in the end, it turned out to be Fisher to defend against mines? Allen!

Fisher couldn't keep up with Ray Allen's footsteps, and was thrown away within two steps.After Ray Allen threw off Fisher, Ridnour's pass also arrived. Ray Allen caught the ball and made a jumper, and steadily threw the ball into the basket!
8 to 8, the score was tied again!

In the current situation, Zen master is a little helpless.The two sides entered into a confrontation with each other, and Ray Allen's hand feeling was surprisingly good today, and he made two of two three-pointers.If there is no way to suppress Ray Allen, the Lakers may even lose today!
Seeing that halfway through the first quarter, the Lakers and SuperSonics were still tied at 18-18. Zen Master couldn't sit still anymore. He got up and called a long timeout.When everyone returned to the bench to rest, Zen Master said to Kobe: "Kobe, in the next quarter, you will strengthen your offense and don't shoot if you can break through, is that okay?"

Seeing Kobe nodded, Zen master said to Odom again: "Lamar, you go up to play with the substitute, pay attention to defending their perimeter."

Odom drank some water, and while swallowing, made an OK gesture.

Finally, the Zen master said to Li Du: "Li, you have done a good job today, just keep going!"

Li Du shook his head with a sad expression, "Coach, you don't have to comfort me, I failed to defend Ray Allen, it was my mistake!"

"No, no, no!" The Zen master shook his finger and smiled at Li Du: "You have done a good job. You must know that when he uses many off-ball screens and circles around many times to avoid you, he will not let you down. My own physical exertion is not small! It's only the first quarter, wait until the second half to see his shooting percentage!"

In the second half of the first quarter and the first half of the second quarter, Li Du sat on the bench sullenly.What Zen master said seems very reasonable, but as a star player who has worked hard in the NBA for so long, how could Ray Allen not know how to allocate his energy reasonably?

But I have really worked hard to chase and defend, but every time I encounter an off-ball screen, I can't push the opponent away.But if you bypass it, you won't be able to keep up with Ray Allen!You can keep up with switching defenses, but if you are still a relatively weak defense, you will still be scored by Ray Allen!
For a while, Li Du lost his mind.Ray Allen is indeed strong, and he has the ability to shoot immediately after receiving the ball more than Li Du's previous opponents. This is the most troublesome problem for Li Du now.While thinking about how to defend Ray Allen, Li Du watched the Lakers and Sonics substitutes fight on the field.

At this time, Kobe sat next to Li Du, patted Li Du's leg with his hand, and said: "Just try to do your own thing well, and leave the rest to us! In fact, the coach is right. Actions are a kind of consumption of one's own physical strength, no matter how you know how to allocate physical strength reasonably, in the second half, especially after the fourth quarter, there will always be a lack of physical strength."

Speaking of this, Kobe pointed to Rashad Lewis, who was playing on the Sonics team with a substitute, and said to Li Du: "Look, the shot he shot just now had a chance, but why didn't he hit it? My physical strength has begun to decline! The accuracy of shooting requires physical support the most, and a slight deviation will affect the shooting rate."

Li Du looked at Kobe suspiciously, and asked: "Boss, you mean that I just need to increase the consumption of him every time he gets rid of me, right?"

Seeing Kobe nodding, Li Du always felt a little unbelievable, as long as this is all right?But in this way, Ray Allen can also score a lot of points before his physical strength declines. Isn't it even more unfavorable for the Lakers?
When Li Du told Kobe about his doubts, Kobe laughed and said, "Silly boy, what we want is the final victory! Even if Ray Allen can score 50 points, so what, he still lost to us." ! As long as you can win!"

Seeing that Li Du had stopped talking, Kobe asked with a smile, "What? Are you worried that tomorrow the media, newspapers, and fans will say that you, the amazing rookie, don't live up to your name?"

Li Du nodded. Fame and fortune have always been linked together, and he proved himself in one game.But now, facing Ray Allen, he felt that he had nowhere to use his energy.Ray Allen has almost no physical contact with him, and he doesn't attack with the ball, but he is the core of the entire Sonics' offense!

"Why don't I guard the man who holds the ball so that Ray Allen can't receive the pass?" Li Du thought about it, but then he thought again, it still doesn't work, he can guard the man who holds the ball, but the entire Super League The Sonics revolve around Ray Allen. Everyone can be responsible for passing the ball to him. It doesn't make any sense to guard against one person.

The substitutes of the two teams played very lively, but the point difference has always remained between 1 and 2 points, and it can be turned over at any time.With 7 and a half minutes left in the second quarter, the score of the two teams came to 43 to 44, and the Lakers only led by one point.

Before playing, Kobe showed Li Du a statistic.Li Du made 6 of 8 three-pointers today and scored 5 points. Kobe made 3 of 3 and 13 of 4 serves, scoring 3 points.On the Supersonic side, Ray Allen made 9 of 6 three-pointers, no breakthroughs, no free throws, and scored 5 points. Rashard Lewis was not bad, making 11 of [-] shots, including a three-pointer, and scored [-] points. point.

Li Du couldn't understand, so he asked Kobe, "Boss, what does this mean?"

Kobe smiled and said: "This is to tell you that Ray Allen was actually suppressed by you tonight. You forced him to shoot three-pointers, not to attack with the ball, let alone break through. This is enough! His firepower At least half weaker!"

Li Du muttered, "Actually, I really want to kill his other half."

Kobe made a helpless expression, then patted Li Du and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to play!"
