Chapter 212 Leo's pick and roll is unsolvable!

On the western side, adjustments were made immediately.

Duncan, Nowitzki, Anthony, Ray Allen, Ginobili.

The east also lined up again.

Big Ben, Jr., Li Lei, Hill, Iverson.

Western troops attack.

Ginobili broke through in a serpentine shape, attracting the opponent to shrink the defense, and made a wonderful pass to Ray Allen at the top of the arc.

Lei Allen raised his knife and dropped it, piercing his heart with an arrow.

Swish!
19: 12.

Eastern troops attack.

Li Lei and O'Neal played pick and roll at the free throw line.

The West team chose to switch defenses.

Nowitzki set his sights on Li Lei.

Li Lei directly accelerated to get rid of Nowitzki, rushed into the paint, and scored with a throw.

Swish!
21: 12.

Western troops attack.

Anthony ran without the ball, caught and shot, and hit a mid-range hit.

21: 14.

Eastern troops attack.

Li Lei continued to play pick and roll with O'Neal.

The West is still changing defenses.

Nowitzki drew on the experience of the previous round and retreated early, leaving room for defensive breakthroughs.

As a result, Li Lei directly took a step back, pulled up and shot.

Swish!
24: 12.

Li Lei scored 5 points in a row.

Up to now, everyone can see that Riley is making balls for his disciples.

But Popovich certainly won't let Riley get what he wants.

Moreover, the last time Li Lei blocked the Spurs' locker room after the Fire Horse War, he even directly contradicted Popovich.

It's not Popovich's style not to show Li Lei some color.

Popovich exhorted from the sidelines.

Afterwards, Lei Allen set his sights on Li Lei.

Jermaine O'Neal continued to pick and roll for Li Lei, Ray Allen prepared in advance, squeezed past, and continued to stare at Li Lei.

Don't look at Ray Allen's thin body, but he is also flying and escaping at this time, with outstanding running and jumping ability, coupled with various tiresome small movements, his defense is definitely above the average level.

Li Lei missed the shot under his interference.

The West team took the opportunity to play a wave of fast breaks and scored 2 points.

24: 14.

In the next round, Li Lei still couldn't get a chance because of Ray Allen's entanglement, so he could only distribute the ball to his teammates.

Hill's breakthrough layup was interfered by Duncan.

The West hit a three-pointer in turn.

24: 17.

Popovich sat calmly on the sidelines, watching Li Lei deflate for two consecutive rounds with a smile on his face.

But Pat Riley on the opposite side immediately made a change.

Exit Iverson, enter James.

The Eastern team attacked and the ball was given to James.

Li Lei took the initiative to cover for James.

Ginobili has a high IQ, prepared, and bypassed the pick-and-roll.

But he hadn't stood firm yet, James had already rushed up, and with one force, he ran over Ginobili and rushed into the paint.

Duncan came up to defend, James passed directly to the basket, and Ben caught the ball and dunked.

boom!
26: 17.

Eastern troops attack.

Ginobili broke through enchantingly, tricked Ben with a change of rhythm, and scored a layup.

26: 19.

Eastern troops attack.

James continued to do pick-and-roll with Li Lei.

Ray Allen knew that Ginobili couldn't stop James, so he got close to James to help him defend.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, James gave the ball to Li Lei.

Li Lei jumped up and voted.

Swish!
29: 19.

Li Lei's scoring started again.

Pat Riley looked across at Popovich with a smile on his face.

But in Popovich's eyes, this smile is provocation.

Popovich is trying to find a way to continue to restrict Li Lei.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, Riley replaced Li Lei.

Popovich's veins bulged, and his face became a little hideous.

Soon the first quarter ends, 39:32.

The East leads by 7 points.

But in the second quarter, Popovich sent the Sun trio: Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion.

Coupled with Ray Allen and Anthony, an enhanced version of the Suns was directly formed.

Under Nash's command, the West team played a fastball whirlwind, not only catching up with the score, but also overtaking.

The Eastern team was brought into rhythm without knowing it, and played very ugly.

Pat Riley's initial idea was to form a small lineup against the Western Conference.

O'Neal, McGrady, Carter, Wade, James (or Iverson).

But the effect is not good.

It stands to reason that James and Iverson are both good players in offensive and defensive transitions, and they should be very strong in fastball.

But they are still not familiar with this style of play.

What's more, Nash is on the opposite side. James' strong organizational ability is placed in front of Nash, and he suddenly looks immature.

At halftime, 68:76.

Instead, the West led by 8 points.

Come back for the second half.

The head coaches of both sides continued to play against each other.

Popovich didn't even start the lineup, but strengthened the "Suns" again.

Stoudemire, Garnett, Kobe, Ray Allen, Nash.

Pat Riley changed the response:

O'Neal, Jr., Li Lei, McGrady, Wade.

This is a big lineup, obviously not playing fast.

Eastern troops attack.

Li Lei advanced to the frontcourt and gave the ball directly to O'Neal.

Facing Stoudemire, O'Neal only exerted his strength, and Stoudemire went out of the bottom line.

O'Neal smashed the ball into the basket with ease.

boom!
70: 76.

Western troops attack.

They serve fast and then flood the frontcourt.

The speed at which Stoudemire, Garnett, Kobe, and Ray Allen advance is simply terrifying.

However, Nash is gone.

Everyone looked back, Li Lei and Wade double-teamed Nash, directly blocking Nash in the backcourt.

Nash is the soul of the Suns and the engine of the Suns' fastball.

When Nash goes out, the sun goes out, and this enhanced version of the Suns will naturally be abolished.

There is nothing wrong with Pat Riley's thinking.

Kobe hurried over to meet Nash.

The West team still advanced to the frontcourt, but the East team had already set up a defensive formation.

The Western troops can only quickly attack and change positions.

Nash and Stoudemire made a pick-and-roll from the free throw line. Nash got rid of Wade and went inside to kill.

O'Neal quickly switched defenses and blocked Nash.

O'Neal's talent is really off the charts, his running and jumping ability is top-notch, and his big defense is very easy to use.

But this can't help Nash.

Nash made an elegant pass behind the back, and Stoudemire pushed away Wade, who was switching defenses, and directly hit the inside.

boom!
A giant body fell from the sky, and directly pushed Stoudemire to the floor with the ball.

Big O'Neal!

O'Neill looked at Stoudemire who was lying on the ground, showing disdain.

Li Lei read O'Neill's mind at a glance: I'm still under the basket, dare to play like this, drifting away?
Eastern troops attack.

The western troops retreated quickly.

The Eastern Army can only quickly attack and change positions.

But with O'Neill, playing positional warfare is not a problem.

O'Neill chiseled in against Stoudemire.

Stoudemire retreated steadily, not an opponent at all.

Seeing this, Garnett came up to help defend.

O'Neal looked at the six directions, noticed Garnett's action, and distributed the ball ahead of time.

Jermaine O'Neal received the ball, pulled it up directly, and made a steady hit from the mid-range.

Swish!
72: 76.

The West continued to serve fast.

Li Lei and Wade also continued to flank Nash.

But Nash was prepared this time and distributed the ball.

Kobe smoothly advanced to the frontcourt.

But the ball is in Kobe's hands, which is completely different from Nash.

Kobe chose to shoot himself, and popped out of the frame under the interference of Tracy McGrady.

Bang!

O'Neal grabbed the rebound and went straight to Wade.

Wade pushed up against Nash and threw the basketball into the hoop.

Swish!
74: 76.

Just after the start of the second half, the East team caught up with the score.

Popovich's "Suns Tactic" failed.

Popovich replaced Yao Ming against O'Neal.

The two sides began a positional battle.

On the East side, Li Lei continued to attack with the ball.

In order to target Li Lei, Popovich directly sent Kobe to defend Li Lei.

Li Lei didn't get any benefit from his first attack, and was directly intercepted by Kobe.

The West team took the opportunity to play a wave of fast break.

Kobe rushed to the frontcourt, soared into the air, and dunked in the air.

boom!
This ball directly ignited the emotions of the fans at the scene.

74: 78.

Eastern troops attack.

Li Lei looked at Riley, and Riley just nodded, implying that Li Lei continued to attack with the ball.

But this time, Li Lei still didn't take advantage of it and missed the shot under Kobe's defense.

Bang!

Li Lei failed to attack twice in a row.

Popovich smiled: "Young man, tender!"

The West team counterattacked again. Yao Ming swayed away from O'Neal and scored a dunk.

74: 80.

Eastern troops attack.

Pat Riley still did not express.

Li Lei saw Popovich with a happy face.

Popovich held out his hand in a gesture of please.

please continue!
If you have the guts.

That's probably what Popovich meant.

This old man has no manners at all, and the events of that day are still remembered.

Li Lei complained in his heart.

But to be honest, Li Lei didn't forget either.

So, Li Lei smiled at Popovich and nodded again.

"Ok!"

"I am coming."

This time, Li Lei did not rush forward.

He carefully observed the opponent's defensive formation, and then chose to call O'Neal out for a pick-and-roll.

Bryant moved quickly and hit O'Neal's huge body directly, and was blocked firmly.

Kobe felt like he was going to fall apart.

O'Neal looked at Kobe, sneered, and went to the basket.

At the same time, facing Yao Ming who switched defenses, Li Lei easily got rid of it with one acceleration, and then accelerated twice to hit the basket.

Garnett, who had been prepared for a long time, rushed over to help defend, his long arms covering the sky and the sun.

Li Lei observed Garnett's actions, and a wonderful pass was passed to O'Neal who went down.

O'Neal made an easy layup and scored.

76: 80.

Western troops attack.

Yao Ming hits the hook in the lateral move.

76: 82.

next round.

Li Lei continued to do pick-and-roll with O'Neal.

Kobe was prepared this time and tried to bypass O'Neal.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Lei pulled it up directly.

The basketball crossed a high parabola, piercing the heart with an arrow.

Swish!
79: 82.

"Roar!"

Li Lei who landed gave a low growl, and then looked at Popovich on the sidelines.

"You asked me to make a shot, I made a shot, and then what?"

Popovich's face was ashen. Looking at Li Lei's hateful smile, he really wanted to go on the court and cripple him.

With this goal, Li Lei has already scored 16 points, which is the highest score of the East team.

Zhang Weiping and Su Qun were a little excited: "If this fight continues, Shitou may win the MVP tonight!"

"However, the western team should not let the stone get what it wants. Let's see what tricks Popovich has in the future, and whether the stone can be cracked."

Western troops attack.

Duncan's offense missed under the interference of Jermaine O'Neal.

Bang!

The Eastern team protected the backcourt rebounds and started to attack.

Li Lei and O'Neal continued to play pick and roll.

The moment the two separated, Garnett helped defend.

Popovich knew that Kobe had no way to cover O'Neal, so he chose to let another delay Li Lei.

In this way, Yao Ming can keep an eye on O'Neal, and it will not be easy for O'Neal to go down.

This idea is good.

But at this moment, Li Lei passed the ball.

McGrady catches the ball, pulls up and shoots.

Kobe rushed to defend, but was a step too late.

Swish!
82: 82.

"Facts have proved that Leo's pick-and-roll is unsolvable!"

Su Qun exclaimed excitedly.

For several consecutive rounds, Popovich kept adjusting, but he couldn't break the pick and roll of Li Lei and O'Neal.

Until the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, the Eastern team relied on Leo's pick-and-roll to establish an 8-point advantage.

134: 126.

At this time, Li Lei had scored a game-high 26 points.

As long as the East team keeps the lead until the end of the time, Li Lei can get tonight's MVP.

However, Popovich is not willing.

He kept repeating "Leo's pick and roll". Are there really unsolvable tactics in this world?

of course not!
Popovich smirked.
