Chapter 22 Precise Stealing (Intermediate)
After half a quarter, 14:8, the Cavaliers have led by as many as 6 points.

James made 4 of 3 shots and scored 6 points.

In addition, he has 2 rebounds and 3 assists.

The live commentary of this game has been conquered by James: "The emperor is omnipotent. He can charge and be invincible, and he can also command the army and become a leader. Look, James used his organizational ability to turn the Cavaliers into a team, and The Heat are still in pieces."

No problem, how could five people beat a team of five.

Zhang Weiping and Su Qun, who were broadcast live, were also discussing.

Zhang Weiping said: "James's talent is too top-notch, it doesn't make sense at all, and coupled with his golf quotient, there is no solution."

Su Qun was a little anxious: "If the game continues like this, the Heat will be finished in the first quarter. Director Zhang, do you have any good tactics?"

Zhang Weiping: "..."

If I have good tactics, I can go to the NBA as a coach directly. Didn’t you see Spoelstra at a loss?

But he still said: "Well...the Heat will reduce the Cavaliers' points and then increase their own points."

Su Qun: "..."

A good tactic is that what you say is the same as what you don’t say.

At this time, Spoelstra called a timeout in time.

"Stone, James is in your hands."

These are Spoelstra's first words.

"Ok."

Li Lei nodded in agreement.

The only ones in the Heat who are similar in size to James are him and Haslem. Haslem is heavy and slow, and his speed must not keep up with James.

So he is the first choice.

Besides, he was selected by the Heat because of his defense. What else would he want to do if he didn't do the dirty work at this time.

Spoelstra breathed a sigh of relief: he was afraid that Li Lei would be frightened by James and dare not accept the task.

He pulled Li Lei and said: "James is not without flaws. First, his skills are relatively rough, and his ball control is relatively blunt. Second, his mid-range and long-range shots are also relatively poor."

"So when you are defending, you can let him take a step to prevent penetration or prevent shots."

"Finally, don't let him accelerate. As long as he can't get up to speed, James' impact will be reduced by more than half."

Spoelstra still had a lot to say, but he was afraid that Li Lei would not be able to accept too much at once, so he could only pick the most important ones.

Li Lei nodded, he grasped the point: don't let James speed up!
Coach Xiao Fan taught him this lesson: to defend, use your feet instead of your hands.

At the moment the opponent breaks through, move your feet to cut off the opponent's line and limit the opponent's acceleration.

Li Lei has practiced well.

The referee reminded the game to continue.

The two sides returned to the court.

James found that the defender in front of him had turned into a yellow-skinned Li Lei.

James has the impression that he met Li Lei in the draft.

Yellow-skinned players are rare protected animals in the NBA, and James can't remember it.

But that's all, a second-round pick, too far away from James' world.

The only thing the Heat can make James pay attention to is No. 5 pick Wade.

Others naturally found out too.

Su Qun frowned: "Stone is defending James, I wonder if he can defend him?"

Zhang Weiping said: "It's hard! It's not that Stone is weak, it's that James is too strong. Don't ask to be defensive, just limit James."

Zhang Weiping was still a veteran, and immediately found a way out for Li Lei.

It's no wonder Li Lei is weak.

If you stop it, it's a surprise.

But Zhang Weiping didn't think about this possibility at all. Which rookie can defend against James?
On-site commentary is much more direct.

"The Heat switched defenses, but it didn't work. LeBron James will crush all defenses with his strong body!"

Li Lei pouted: Hey, shouldn't your commentary be neutral?Is it really okay to be so subjective?No wonder he can only be a staff member of the summer league.

The game continues.

It's still James attacking with the ball.

Li Lei took a big step directly: If you want to vote, feel free.

James looked at the basket, and sure enough he didn't shoot.

I have to say that Spoelstra's intelligence is quite accurate.

This is inevitable. With James' popularity, his technical characteristics are estimated to have been thoroughly studied by 29 teams.

Snapped!
After taking a shot of the basketball, James started directly, and his first step was very fast.

Fortunately, Li Lei took a big step and had enough space and time to respond.

Li Lei moved a step sideways, blocking James' breakthrough line.

James was forced to stop, holding the ball while continuing to look for opportunities.

Li Lei secretly said: James' skills are indeed inferior.

This ball is replaced by Crawford, Alston, and White Chocolate. After being blocked, it will change direction and continue to rush. It will never stop so easily.

Adjusting his footsteps, Li Lei still took a big step.

James frowned, and found a chance to speed up his breakthrough again.

Li Lei, who was engrossed, moved sideways at the first time, blocking James' breakthrough route.

James was forced to stop again.

There was a brief silence in the arena, and the speaker for the live commentary was also broken.

Zhang Weiping and Su Qun calmed down, and murmured in their hearts: Coach Spoelstra has something to do. After the timeout, arrange Li Lei to defend James.Now it seems that Li Lei defended well.

But everyone knows that James is not so easy to be guarded.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for James' next attack, it must be a storm.

Sure enough, it came.

James speeds up with all his might.

Li Lei moved immediately to block James.

James didn't stop this time, he continued to accelerate, and the two collided.

The huge impact made Li Lei feel very uncomfortable.

But he didn't flinch, he straightened his chest and resisted James.

James didn't intend to stop either. He pushed Li Lei sideways and continued to charge forward.

This is a game of pure power.

Li Lei retreated, his strength is still not as good as James.

The hearts of domestic fans gradually lifted.

But at this moment, James' speed gradually slowed down until he was forced to stop.

One is full of energy, the other is exhausted, and the third is exhausted.

James failed to break through Li Lei three times, and his successor was weak.

Of course, this means that Li Lei's strength has reached 69. If he is a little bit worse, he may be directly run over by James.

James, who stopped, was a little embarrassed, and couldn't hold the ball firmly in his hand.

Li Lei has quick eyes and quick hands, making precise steals and grabbing the basketball.

"Oh!"

The fans at the scene exclaimed for a while, Li Lei actually stole James.

Wade received a pass from Li Lei and scored a one-stop layup.

14: 10.

"Pretty!"

During the live broadcast, Zhang Weiping and Su Qun jumped up.

Zhang Weiping: "Coach Spoelstra's substitution is very reasonable, he just needs to use Li Lei, he has the strength."

As for what he said earlier that Li Lei couldn't guard against it, he had already forgotten it.

Sorry, I didn't say that.

The American commentator at the scene didn't speak for a long time, and the speaker was broken again, and it hasn't been repaired yet.

His face hurt a little, a little hot.

Li Lei didn't even care, because there was something happening in the system.

Accurate steal proficiency +1.

"Congratulations to the host, precise stealing has been promoted to an intermediate skill."

Accurate Steal (Intermediate 1/1000.)
When the host steals, the chance of fouling is reduced by 15%, and the possibility of successful steals is increased by 15%.Even if the steal fails, it can still oppress the opponent, affect the opponent's state, and increase the possibility of making mistakes by 15%.
