Chapter 73 Perfect Answers
When he was resting on the bench, Li Hai held back several times when he wanted to give advice to the coach. The All-Star Weekend was mainly about entertainment, and he didn't want to backfire.

After the second-year team led by 1 point, the first-year team called a second timeout in the second half.

The two coaches encouraged: "Boys, you can do it, just like the first half, you will definitely win."

"We want to win. Several members of the second-year team are already team leaders, even All-Stars. The 03 class is very famous. Today we have the opportunity to prove that the 04 class is even better." Li Hai suddenly said loudly .

"As far as the spirit of the game is concerned, doing our best to defeat them and show our strength is a respect for the game, the audience and the fans who support us. In terms of practical benefits, winning the game beautifully will help us Provide status in their respective teams and increase leverage for big contracts."

"Everyone, join me in defeating them, come on!"

Li Hai stretched out his palms, and put them up one after another, "Come on, beat them."

After the timeout, the players of the first-year team all showed high fighting spirit.

Because of Li Hai's generous statement, the coach of the first-year team also replaced the main lineup ahead of time. Compared with the strong offense and weak defense of the substitute, this starting lineup is more balanced offensive and defensive, and it is a lineup suitable for the decisive moment.

After Li Hai went on the field, the defender standing in front of him became James, "Lee, I'm sorry, we will win today."

"As Cameron said before the game, it's a matter of strength."

As soon as the words fell, Li Hai started quickly and rushed to the side of James.

James closely followed Li Hai, not even losing his defensive position.

Li Hai suddenly turned around and squeezed in. James still resisted forcefully and was not squeezed in by him. James' defense, no matter in terms of reaction, speed and strength, had reached a very high level.

However, Li Hai used the rebound force of the collision with the opponent to pull the ball back and turned back.

The basketball hit the net, and Li Hai expressed his attitude. A player who wants to win with his teammates must have the courage and strength to break the opponent's defense. He did it.

Basketball is not just about offense. Li Hai has set an example in terms of attack, and he must also set an example in terms of defense. This is what a leader looks like. He has not yet become a leader in the Knicks. Today in the Rookie Challenge, He wants to show everyone the charisma of his leader.

The second grade team is the most dangerous now, Li Hai thinks it is Anthony and Bosh, Bosh he can't defend, then it is Anthony.

He quickly communicated with Iguodala and set their respective defense targets.

He concentrated on following Anthony. Anthony received a pass from Wade and made a mid-range shot without adjustment.

"Li, you can't stop me."

"Cameron, you said this too early." Li Hai countered without hesitation.

He dribbled the ball quickly, and James entangled him again. Li Hai asked Howard to come up to cover and force that kind of thing, as long as he showed it a few times at critical moments. In normal times, he had to play more reasonably. Players who play hard, often sometimes hurt the team.

He drove to the three-point line on a screen, then passed to Tony Allen, who came down and drew a foul for a layup.

It's a pity that he made only two free throws and made one of two free throws.

On the sophomore team side, Anthony made a comeback again, squeezing Li Hai with his body and constantly asking for the ball.

Li Hai also took the opportunity to have a physical confrontation with Anthony. When he was off the court, Anthony's touch had already come up, and he wanted to use high-intensity confrontation to interrupt the opponent's touch.

If he faced James on offense and Anthony on defense in an official game, Li Hai's physical strength would definitely be insufficient, but the Rookie Challenge didn't last as long as the official game, he only played 10 minutes, and his physical strength was pretty good very.

After Anthony received the ball, he took a tentative step and tried to shake Li Hai away, but Li Hai stuck to the opponent and remained motionless. Anthony suddenly moved the ball up and made a jump shot, trying to create Li Hai's foul.

It's just that Li Hai is very familiar with Anthony's routine, so he didn't put his arm up at all. Anthony failed to make a foul and missed the shot.

Loel Deng picked up the rebound and passed it to Li Hai. Li Hai rushed forward immediately and passed it to Iguodala on the side. Iguodala returned the ball after two steps. Li Hai European step layup, but also caused Wade's foul and penalty hit.

It was not much time before the end of the game. Anthony was closely watched by Li Hai. James tried another three-pointer from the outside, but this time he missed.

Bosh jumped up high and grabbed the offensive rebound. He was about to put the ball in with a step forward, but Howard jumped up suddenly and slapped the ball out.

Howard has been at a disadvantage in the matchup with Bosh before, and finally broke out at a critical moment.

After Iguodala got the ball, he rushed forward quickly, Li Hai followed behind and passed Anthony in an instant, and after receiving the pass, James, who was still standing still, made a mid-range shot in front of him.

At 132:127, the first-year team led by 5 points, the second-year team requested a timeout, and the time just entered the last 2 minutes.

At this time, the opponent's five main players have finishing ability except Haslem, and the first-year team's defense cannot be relaxed in the slightest. Li Hai still decided to mark Anthony at this time.

Maybe the game was tense again. After resuming the game, both sides failed to score in the two attacks. Time was running out, and the situation was still in favor of the first-year team.

After the second-year team adjusted, James forced Tony Allen to hit two points.

With a gap of 3 points and 40 seconds left, anything can happen.

Li Hai dribbled the ball to consume time. With 7 seconds left, Loel Deng came up to cover him, but Li Hai didn't rush in. He pulled up two steps outside the three-point line, full of confidence.

Everyone's eyes followed the basketball to the basket, and with a bang, the ball hit the inner edge of the basket and entered the basket crisply.

The gap suddenly became 6 points. Wade dribbled the ball forward quickly, and passed it to Anthony in front of the three-point line, but Anthony missed a three-pointer.

Li Hai turned around and grabbed the rebound in his hand, James hurried forward to foul.

Li Hai made two free throws, and the gap of 8 points was meaningless against the All-Stars. Bosh finally completed a dunk, and the game ended.

137:131, the final victory is the first-year team.

On the side of the court, Xia Weiliang jumped up, as happy as a child.

With 40 points, including 6 three-pointers, 7 rebounds, 9 assists and [-] steals, this is Li Hai's answer sheet in the Rookie Challenge, perfect.
