Reborn NBA's Strongest Talent

Chapter 178 178. Battle of the King of Tickets (for Subscription)

The determination of the All-Star starting list also raised the team's morale to a peak.

How fierce is the battle for the Western Conference defenders!
Curry, the creator of the small ball era, leads the league with super fast and accurate three-pointers. He is the only unanimous MVP player in history.

Bearded Harden, a good scorer and assist player, his step-back three-pointers and foul free throws are unrivaled in the league. You may not like him, but you must be afraid of him, because scoring is like picking something out of a pocket for him.

The all-around fighter Westbrook, you say he can’t shoot well, he can score 50 points, you say he plays without brains, he can get 20+ assists, you say he doesn’t defend well, the average of 10 rebounds per game is not just given by his teammates, steals are also on the list.The absolute core of the Thunder, none of them.

Neither can Li Cha!
Paul, the god of point guards, although the possession of the ball has declined after arriving in the Rockets, his role on the court has never declined. With Paul on the court, Harden can more easily invest in the offense. Paul's role is by no means summed up by the number of assists.

Big heart killer Lillard, stable and calm, super offensive ability, longer range than Curry, another loyal spokesperson.

Buddha Thompson, you can never see great sorrow and joy from his expression, a strong three-pointer and a solid defense. It is easy to gain a foothold among the guards, because he often travels to China and has a strong fan base.

Not to mention Booker and Ball, one is fully supported by the team and is also known as Kobe's successor, and the other is the Lakers giants team with terrible fans.

And the real legacy should be Butler.

After the transfer to the Timberwolves, Butler really injected the spirit of the wolf into the Timberwolves. Although Wiggins is talented, he has a bad playing attitude. Towns has strong abilities and good statistics, but he is not serious about defense.

It's a pity that these powerful players all lost in the end, to Li Cha, who was born with the largest fan base.

Li Cha is not in vain. For more than half a season, Li Cha has averaged 23.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, which is a bit higher than last season. You must know that the Thunder now has three players averaging 20+ per game.

At the same time, the Thunder is also the most balanced among the teams with the Big Three.

Moreover, Li Cha's field goal percentage is 53.1%, three-point shooting percentage is 39.8%, and free throw percentage is 90.9%. His efficiency is extremely high. It is not a problem to enter the 180 club after the season.

So far, less than 180 people have entered the 10 club in a single season in NBA history.

Even if the ticket king has some fans in it, the All-Star level is enough. As for the starter or the substitute, there is not much difference in the All-Star Game. There are also substitutes who win the All-Star MVP, so it is just a matter of face.

It doesn't matter if you don't care.

For teammates and fans, the motivational effect is still obvious.

After the three-game winning streak, not only did the teammates not feel weak as usual, but they became more energetic and high-spirited.

Even Donovan put a smile on his face. From the coach's point of view, the players are his disciples, and the recognition of his disciples' performance shows that his coaching style is also recognized.

Calling Li Cha to his side, Donovan said earnestly, "Li, congratulations on making the All-Star starter. This is everyone's affirmation of you, but I think you are far from showing your full strength."

That's why the talent has not been fully developed.

"Right now, you are still a piece of rough jade, and you have to continue to polish it. With your talent, the future is limitless. If you want to become the person who writes the history of the league, work hard!"

After speaking, Donovan patted Li Cha on the shoulder.

This yellow-skinned boy has now become Donovan's favorite student. I still remember that he was a scrawny little guy when I first saw him, but he has grown a lot stronger now.

The only thing that hasn't changed is the look in his eyes, tenacious, full of fighting spirit, and unstoppable pursuit of victory.

"Thank you, coach!" Li Cha also sincerely thanked this seemingly serious but kind uncle, who had already worked his way up for the team.

"Go to training!"

"Ugh!"

On January 1, the Thunder came to Cleveland to challenge the Cavaliers away.

James, Wade, Rose, Thomas Jr., Love, from the reputation of these players, the Cavaliers are a super invincible team.

But with old age, injuries and injuries, the Cavaliers can only rely on James to support them at this time.

After Thomas Jr. left the system tailored for him by the Celtics, he has not performed last season. Although he still has a qualified or even above-average starting point guard offensive level, the defensive loopholes cannot be made up for by his offense.

Most of the Cavaliers' players are too old, and they are powerless to defend. Can Thomas Jr. finish the season in the Cavaliers?

In order to avenge the championship, Thomas Jr. is likely to be traded away. He does not belong to the championship puzzle.

This is a later matter. Before little Thomas left, he still had to face him.

Westbrook can beat Thomas Jr., so don't worry about the point guard.

James and George exchange sons, James is good at motivating his teammates, George scores independently, the offense and defense are similar, George is slightly weaker, but the two also met in the Eastern Conference Finals, and they know each other well, and James wins this point.

The part that Westbrook won was basically wiped out.

Love and Li Cha are the key to the outcome of the game. The two are not facing each other, so they can only analyze the results with the opposing players.

Li Cha is facing off against JR Smith. When Smith is strong, his scoring is like chopping melons and vegetables. When he is weak, he will come at any time. His defensive ability is not good, and there is a high probability that he will be overwhelmed by Li Cha.

Love is facing Grant. Love, who is undersized, needs to rely on delicate skills to win. But Love has gone through injuries, while Grant is young and vigorous, moves fast, can top the inside and defend outside.

In this comparison, the Thunder is slightly better.

But the basketball game is not about addition and subtraction. You pull out a person and I pull out a person, and you can get the result by comparing them.

Basketball is round, and the result of the game is unpredictable.

Otherwise, the four-star warriors have come to an end, why are you still fighting for No.2?
This battle is also the first battle between the Cavaliers and the Thunder after the All-Star starting roster was released. Coincidentally, the Eastern Conference champion James and the total vote champion Li Cha are on the two teams.

will be presented in the game.

But the real two are not so tense.

Before the game, James took the initiative to come to the Thunder side. James has a good relationship with many players, except for Irving who left him, but James didn't blame or hold grudges. The two just didn't get along, and they weren't enemies.

When Li Cha saw James coming over, he said hello first, and Westbrook and George also stood up.

"Are you facing an enemy?" James shook his body.

James already has many honors, and now he has a very good mentality, gradually showing his sullen side.

"It's us who are here, and the Cavaliers should be facing the enemy." Westbrook secretly changed the concept.

James spreads his hands, whatever.

"Li, congratulations. Last year it was only the Rookie Challenge, but this year is the starting All-Star. You are great!" James gave Li Cha a thumbs up.

Before Li Cha could answer, James said to the other two, "Russell, Paul, it's a pity for the two of you. Your strength is completely enough to make it into the starting lineup."

While speaking, he sighed slightly.

"LeBron, did you come here just to say congratulations? This year's top ticket was won by Lee, you don't have no idea, do you?" George provoked James, very proud.

"No, no, Li plays very beautifully. I like it very much. I voted for him a lot. I guess that's why I don't get as many votes as him."

After James finished speaking, he bared his mouth and showed a grimace-like smile.

"This is necessary. I also mobilized the majority of Huaxia fans to vote for LeBron." Li Cha also grinned.

"Hahahaha, then we'll see each other at the All-Star Game. I believe we can all see each other." James returned to his bench with a smile on his face.

At the start of the game, the Thunder took the lead in getting the ball.

The pick and roll between Westbrook and Adams is obviously aimed at Thomas Jr., as long as Adams plays Thomas Jr. in the defense, Thomas Jr. will not be able to interfere with Adams at all.

As long as Adams rolls down and doesn't dribble, all that's left is to see Adams' shooting percentage.

Scored the first goal.

Love played the fifth position, that is, the center, and Adams, who was not moving fast, was also a tactic guided by Lu. Love had the ability to shoot three-pointers.

Come back, Love scored a three-pointer, but unfortunately he didn't make it.

But the tactics are also in front of you.

Westbrook sorted out the offense first, and then picked and rolled again. Love didn't dare to pounce. It's okay to let the inside line empty, but you can't let anyone in.

Westbrook was left unattended, stopped suddenly to adjust his jumper, and missed.

Adams got stuck, grabbed the rebound, and made it to the basket.

He is taller and stronger than Love, and has guaranteed offensive rebounds.

Smith made a pass error and was intercepted by Li Cha, who passed the ball to Westbrook for a quick layup.

The opening game was beaten 6:0, Love was on the outside, Adams still couldn't come out to defend, Love made another three-pointer, still nothing.

Li Cha got the rebound, advanced quickly, and passed it inside to Adams, who also scored again.

8:0, the Cavaliers were beaten by the Thunder.

Tyronn Lue quickly called a timeout, the ball couldn't be scored, and the tactics should be changed.

Give that damn ball to James!
