Reborn NBA's Strongest Talent

Chapter 308. 308. Immortal lore
On January 1, the Thunder ushered in the Pelicans led by Davis at home.

The Pelicans have performed poorly this season. The main reason is that the team's poor operation has caused Davis' dissatisfaction.

When the team did not make an appointment with Cousins, Davis expressed his support because Cousins ​​was his friend.

Think Cousins ​​is worth more than 2000 million a year, he deserves a big contract.

It is not possible for the team to give a player with a broken Achilles tendon a maximum salary, or a team in a small market will not support a star in this way.

In other words, what you raise must also be able to change the strength of the team and achieve a world of difference.For example, the Spurs have raised Leonard for a long time.

But even if Cousins ​​​​recovers [-]% of his strength, it is still impossible to bring the Pelicans to the finals alone.

In that case, the Kings would have reached the finals long ago.

And Davis spoke publicly for Cousins. In this way, Davis and the team's management have torn their skins.

The matter of Cousins ​​is just a foreshadowing. More importantly, the Pelicans did not add strong players during the offseason, and their strength did not increase but decreased.

Playing in such a team, Davis has repeatedly become the leader of the empty slash group. In anger, Davis simply played negatively.

Just cut 20+ every game, guarantee your own data and you're done.

It is said that Davis has been pressing the Palace management to request a trade.

There are a lot of offers, but the Pelicans are not willing to promise much.

Mainly because the asking price is too high.Taking the Lakers as an example, the Pelicans directly asked the Lakers to send four sons, Ingram, Ball, Kuzma and Pope.

A whole Lakers team can start for Davis.If it wasn't for James's sale, it is estimated that even the idea would be on him.

The Lakers are not fools. It is very uneconomical to lose all their future when they come to Davis.

And what is anxious now is the Pelicans. Davis has player options in the last year, which can be completely ignored. That is to say, after Davis has played the last half of the season, the Pelicans may be empty-handed.

This uproarious trading incident and Davis, who was passive in the game, also caused his state and statistics to decline a lot, and the All-Star votes also dropped a lot. Davis only got the fourth position in the frontcourt ranking. If George is not injured, he will continue to go to the back row.

At this time, the Pelicans who came to Oklahoma are equivalent to only Holiday being the strong point, and Davis is just a thing who regards himself as a tool man.

This is a door-to-door victory, don't let it go in vain.

也必须要全力以赴，李茶27投20中拿到49分6篮板5助攻，给只拿到22分8篮板的戴维斯上了一课。

The Pelicans lost the game 103:116.

On the 27th, the Bucks came to Oklahoma to play against the Thunder.

Antetokounmpo is indeed a very powerful and impactful player, but the Thunder's insiders, especially Allen, can completely withstand the impact, and Allen's powerful blocking ability has threatened Antetokounmpo many times.

The Bucks and Antetokounmpo, who had lost their strongest weapons, could only rely on three-pointers from the outside to continue their lives, and the audience was suppressed by the Thunder.

Antetokounmpo only scored 10 points in the half, which is far from the current average of nearly 30 points per game.

But the Bucks' one-star shooting has basically taken shape, and the efforts of peripheral shooters still filled the vacancy that Antetokounmpo failed to break through.

He bit the score tightly.

Antetokounmpo can only change his style of play, focusing on defense first, at least not letting the team fall behind too much, and then slowly catch up.

The Spurs' Budenholzer is still very good, at least he has the true meaning of Popovich in defense. With the defense like an iron barrel and Antetokounmpo's bounce, it is extremely difficult to break through, and there are hot pots waiting to be sent to the top of the head at any time, and the Thunder are also very anxious.

The score gap between the two teams has not been widened.

In the fourth quarter, Antetokounmpo's suppressed anger finally broke out, and with consecutive breakthroughs, the score was brought back to a tie.

The Thunder also had to replace Allen, who was more able to limit Antetokounmpo.

But at this time, the Bucks already had momentum, and they made consecutive three-pointers from the outside and overtook the score.

After the timeout, Li Cha took over the offense again, and at the same time strengthened the outside defense. The inside line was dominated by Allen alone, relying on Li Cha's inward and outward shots, the Bucks finally failed to hold on.

In the last 20 seconds, Li Cha hit a 3-pointer to overtake the score, and the Bucks paused to deploy tactics.

The Thunder also put on an all-defensive lineup, vowing to defend the Bucks' tactics.

The Bucks sent a foul ball, Antetokounmpo caught the ball from the baseline, broke into the penalty area, and went to the basket for a backhand dunk. Allen was too late to prepare and failed to form a threatening defense. The Bucks took the lead again before the last 5 seconds.

After Antetokounmpo came down, he roared to the sky, venting his inner anger.

But Li Cha, who was standing at a 45-degree angle on the same side as Antetokounmpo, raised doubts.

"What's the matter?" Donovan stood up anxiously, and Li Cha was signaling for Donovan to challenge.

"Giannis stepped on the line!" Li Cha walked up to Donovan and said quickly.

Donovan quickly requested a timeout.

"Challenging the referee requires the referee to blow his whistle to signal a foul before he can challenge and change the sentence." But the whistle has not been blown now.

This can only be a missed judgment, and there is no way to challenge it.

During the pause, the big screen was also scrolling to play Antetokounmpo's quasi-lore just now.

It's not that the Thunder are boosting others' ambitions and destroying their own prestige, but many people have also seen that Antetokounmpo stepped on the line with this ball.

Antetokounmpo's foot kicked out of the baseline when he kicked out from the corner, but the referee didn't see it.

Playing this scene live is just to vent, to let the referee know that he missed the judgment.

There was no time left, and it was impossible for the referee to blow a whistle for the Thunder in this game.

Donovan was already arranging tactics, and Li Cha also recovered and listened carefully.

Since a fait accompli cannot be changed, don't think about it anymore, so as not to affect the subsequent mood and performance.

Donovan's tactics are very simple, mostly based on screens and running, and Li Cha is the one who carries out the offense.

The key ball must also be handed over to Li Cha, both the Thunder and the Bucks know it.

"It will definitely hit two points. Lee's mid-range shot is more accurate and his two-point hits are higher. We need to shrink the defense. Giannis, you have to catch up with Lee and give him a suffocating oppressive defense. Don't let him shoot easily." Budenholzer's thinking is very clear.

Antetokounmpo nodded heavily, one offense and one defense, as long as he succeeds, he will dominate the game, and the poor performance before will be made up for.

When timeout expires, both teams return to the field.

Li Cha served from the sideline, but Antetokounmpo had to come to the sideline to interfere. With his height and long arms, this interference was indeed serious.

But Allen also stood up and blocked Antetokounmpo's hand. Li Cha passed the ball from behind Allen to Rose, and he also rushed out from behind Allen to the penalty area.

Antetokounmpo bypassed the pick-and-roll and rushed back to the penalty area one step faster.

But at this moment Li Cha took a step and changed direction, and ran to the outside line, and Rose's ball came to Li Cha's hands like a shadow.

Antetokounmpo was secretly startled, so he rushed out in two big strides, and took off early to block Li Cha's shooting angle.

Because there was no time left, Li Cha had to vote, and there wasn't even enough time for a feint.

Li Cha did catch the ball and shoot it. Li Cha, who was facing the basket sideways, turned himself around in the air, facing the basket head-on.

then……

Lean back and shoot a three-pointer!

Leaning back requires more strength to throw the ball in. At this time, Li Cha is moving outwards and twisting his body. His core strength has been consumed a lot, so he still needs to lean back!
Almost everyone thought it was impossible to score the goal.

The Bucks players have smiles on their faces and want to celebrate this hard-won reversal victory.

Li Cha also sat down on the ground because of the shooting action.

The red light on the rim comes on and the game is over.

Only the basketball that decides the outcome is still spinning in the air, insisting on flying to the basket, keeping the final suspense.

Antetokounmpo finally turned his head to look at the basketball. The direction of the basketball's flight is very positive. Although it is very high, the angle of this parabola seems to be correct.

Could it be that this ball is going towards the goal?
Antetokounmpo's eyes gradually widened. At the same time, more people also discovered the direction of the ball's flight. The audience and fans on the sidelines stood up, ready to raise their hands high and witness the miracle.

"No!" Antetokounmpo finally let out a scream!
The basketball spun into the net, and it was still a hollow three-pointer!
Having completely lost his shooting posture, Li Cha actually completed a standard backward shot, and only then did he make a steady hit.

"Yes!" Li Cha sat on the ground and shook his fist fiercely.

Basketball does not lie, what is owed must be paid back.

The players on the bench rushed onto the field frantically, and surrounded Li Cha with all their brains, almost lifting Li Cha and throwing him into the sky.

The Bucks players, who were just about to celebrate, walked out of the court dejectedly amid the standing cheers of the audience and went back to the locker room.

"Even though you made the game-winning shot, I still want to criticize you. I missed two points and went for three-pointers, which increased my chances of getting a heart attack for no reason." Donovan muttered to himself, as if he wanted to criticize Li Cha, but the smile on his face betrayed his happiness.

At 115:117, the Thunder defended their home court, leaving the referee with nothing to say.

I don't need you to blow the whistle for me to make it up.

李茶25投16中拿到43分5篮板6助攻，为雷霆奉献了最强的进攻姿态。

Antetokounmpo, on the other hand, only scored 21 points and 6 rebounds on 20 of 11 shots.

The large double-double looks very good, but comparing Antetokounmpo's regular statistics and shooting percentage, we know that this game was suppressed miserably by the Thunder.
