I just play ball

Chapter 122 Attitude
Li Yue was quite surprised by Howard's unequivocal words. He didn't know where his confidence came from, and he didn't know how likely it was to be able to do it, but it was enough to show his attitude, and it was just to make the children happy. There was no need to get entangled, so he nodded along.

Seeing that the two adults promised at the same time, Jimmy's chubby face blossomed with joy, clapping his little hands, bouncing around and saying "I've won", while his mother smiled awkwardly at the side and nodded slightly to the two of them.

Li Yue touched Jimmy's head, patted Howard on the shoulder, turned and stepped onto the court.

After practicing running, catching and shooting for a while, the time came to 06:30 in the afternoon, and the Lakers returned to the locker room.

D'Antoni made the final arrangement before the game, repeatedly emphasizing words such as speed reduction, running, and success rate.

After changing the jersey and coming to the stadium, the DJ shouted loudly and loudly, and more than 8000 spectators cheered and applauded.

Li Yue led the team out of the player tunnel, followed the bright lights, walked around the field to express his thanks, and then made an opening speech on behalf of the team, without any nonsense as before, bluntly saying that he would definitely win G3, which caused the audience to scream wildly.

At seven o'clock, the pre-match ceremony of the two teams ended.

The lights were turned on, and the cheers resounded through the arena again, mixing with the passionate background music, which sounded quite epic.

Li Yue looked around and found that the audience was uniformly wearing yellow and white T-shirts, that is, the Lakers home jersey, including Megan Fox, Charles Theron and more than a dozen Hollywood female stars sitting on the sidelines.

Spectators on the east and west stands held up cardboards, displaying the words LETS GO and LAKERS respectively.

Obviously, the audience attached more importance to this game than all previous playoffs.

Li Yue ran to the technical stage, clapping hands with Nicholson, Leonardo and other bigwigs all the way, without stopping at all, let alone communicating cordially. From the perspective of a third party, It's like super rock and roll is obviously walking on the red carpet, and some reluctantly perfunctory fans are just going through the motions.

There is no doubt that Li Yue is the biggest player in the entire Staples Center tonight, and his popularity exceeds Kobe.

After finishing the opening action with Goodlock, the long whistle sounded at the same time, and Li Yue turned and walked into the court.

He clapped five starters with the Heat one by one, and found that they were point guard Chalmers, shooting guard Wade, small forward LeBron, power forward Bosh, and center Haslem. He immediately guessed that the opponent might change his offensive and defensive strategies again.

Before thinking too much, the referee walked to the center circle with the ball. He withdrew his mind and looked at the basketball, and the scene gradually became quiet.

The referee patted the basketball and shouted 321 countdown...

Snapped!Both sides touched the ball almost at the same time, but Howard roared and forcibly moved it.

The basketball did not fly towards the Lakers half court, but flew out of bounds along the center line. Li Yue and LeBron ran to compete.

But the running speed is nowhere faster than a flying basketball. Seeing that it is about to fly out of bounds, LeBron "dumps" the brakes, and the sound of the sneakers rubbing against the floor creaks, but Li Yue flies out like a hungry tiger looking for food.

He grabbed the basketball and swung his arms into the field, just in time to throw the ball to the front court.

The basketball was the closest to Kobe and Wade, and the two scrambled together in an instant, followed by other players.

Kobe fell to the ground holding the ball, and immediately made a gesture to ask for a timeout. D'Antoni jumped and gestured after seeing this.

The referee didn't blow his whistle, because Wade also sat on the ground and stretched out his hands to catch the basketball, which was in a state of contention according to the rules.

Kobe was not in a hurry, he turned and pulled suddenly, and hugged tightly with both hands, as if he valued his own son.

The expressions of the audience were dull, as if they were a little suffocated. Why was it so intense at the beginning? Could it be a wonderful replay?
"Give it to me!" Li Yue got up from the sidelines, observed a little and shouted loudly.

Kobe threw the ball back immediately, and LeBron turned quickly, but this time Li Gao jumped up and grabbed it firmly.

The onlookers applauded and cheered, Li Yue landed and then passed Nash, and the Lakers attacked first.

According to the pre-match plan, Li Yue ran to the middle of the free throw line and stood with his back to set up a human wall.

Kobe then used the screen to cut in, rushed to the basket and then received Howard's screen, often running to the right.At the same time, Li Yue turned around and ran to the left wing, and once again set up a human wall to block Chalmers. Nash took the opportunity to get rid of the post defense and quickly ran to the top of the arc.

LeBron, who was chasing the defense, was forced to delay the attack. Li Yue cut inside, accepted a pass without looking, and directly attacked the basket.

Haslem defended, Li Yue hurriedly stopped and passed the ball, Howard caught it with both hands, took off on the spot, and violently smashed the dunk.

With a bang, the basketball was caught, the Lakers led 2-0, and the cheers from the Staples Center were like detonating a bomb.

The audience held back for too long, and finally got vent!
LeBron received the ball from the bottom line and sprinted furiously. In three seconds, he came to the left wing of the frontcourt, slowed down and braked, and passed the ball hand to hand.

Wade catches the ball and starts, Kobe catches up closely, and the free throw line encounters a double screen delay by Haslem and Bosh.

Wade was in an unguarded state for an instant, but he didn't rush to make a shot, but walked around the three-point line to the right half.

Bryant scrambles through the crowd for an interception, but Wade cuts to the short corner and dribbles along the baseline.

Seeing this, Li Yue hurried back to the left corner to prevent the basketball from being passed to LeBron. Although the opponent was not good at three-pointers, Nash, Gasol, and Howard also ran with the Heat players to prevent Wade from scoring and assisting.

That thought, Wade suddenly took off and picked the basket with a backhand, the action was very sudden.

After chasing Kobe, he couldn't react in time, so he could only stay at the basket and wait. Seeing this, Nash and others turned their faces and predicted that they would score.

In an instant, Howard rose from the ground, like a Superman intercepting a missile, with a big hat on the board.

The basketball bounced off the board and fell into Nash's hands. Heat coach Spoelstra jumped up and yelled at the referee to interfere with the ball.

The Lakers counterattacked and the 122 formation settled.

Nash walked slowly to the right wing, waited a moment, threw the ball to the top of the arc, and ran to the baseline by himself.

Seeing this, Li Yue started running from the left corner, rushed to the basket with the cover of Gasol, then ran to the right half court with the cover of Nash, received a pass from Kobe, and then used the cover of Howard to hit the rim, facing Hassler Lemme, LeBron, and Bosh were encircled on the left, front, and right sides, jumped up forcibly, and passed the ball from behind.

Howard received the hand, took a step forward, and took off slightly to hit the board.

The basketball rebounded into the net, and China Resources led 4-0.

LeBron received the ball from the bottom line, rushed to the left wing like a whirlwind, and continued to cooperate with Wade hand in hand.

Kobe bypassed the chase and still encountered a double screen at the free throw line, but this time Howard took the initiative to delay.

Just like that, the area under the basket was vacated. Wade smiled, and broke through with his shoulders lowered and his waist pressed to the ground. The speed was as fast as lightning.

Howard twisted his hips sideways, raised his right hand high, and followed closely with small steps. Relying on his positional advantage, he failed to fall behind.

Wade turned a blind eye, took off forcefully under the threat of defense, and twisted his body in the air to pull the bar sharply.

Howard took off, as if there was a delay in the air, and did not fall for a long time, and then Kobe also jumped up.

boom!The two almost touched the ball, one exerted strength to the left, and the other exerted strength to the front, and the two ghosts hit the goal!

The basketball spun rapidly, hit the board and bounced upside down, falling into Nash's hands again.

This time he didn't continue to take the lead slowly, but directly passed a long pass to Li Yue who was about to go down.

LeBron chased closely, Li Yue rushed to the left basket at full speed, and Rondo made an emergency stop and turned around to pull the ball.

LeBron jumped high and jumped into the air, Li Yue easily hit the board and scored, and the Lakers led 6-0.

TNT commentary seats.

"Howard contributed 4 points and 2 blocks in the past three offenses and defenses, changing the previous two downturns." Miller sighed.

"It can be seen from his previous guarantee of winning that he will be very active tonight." Toto seemed to nod.

"This may be the effect of attitude. The Lakers, from players to staff, and even security personnel, all expressed their support for him, gave him great spiritual encouragement, enhanced his confidence, and eliminated his worries."
