Kwame Brown's Freshman

Chapter 95
On April 2005, 4, the Lakers played the 10th game of the regular season at home.The Lakers host the Cleveland Cavaliers in what is undoubtedly one of the most watched games of the season.

LeBron James, one of the two protagonists of this game, got rid of the greenness of his rookie season, averaged 27+7+7 per game, and has become a hot superstar in the league.Although his four-step layup has been criticized by people, it is undeniable that his ability is already at the top of the league.But it is a tragedy that Ilgauskas was injured again. After Gooden lost Ilgauskas' inside containment, he struggled on the offensive end, and the Cavaliers' record was also dragged down. It seems that the playoffs are hopeless .

The Lakers are now most concerned about Kwame Brown. Kwame, who is in a contract year, has exploded this season. His data has almost doubled and he has entered the ranks of the All-Stars.After Kobe was injured, his data has risen to 22+14.

After successfully turning off the arduous task of pre-match interviews, Kwame is stretching his ligaments in the locker room.Now that Miller is here, Kwame has directly given this burden to Miller. It is estimated that Kwame is the only person in this league who does not like to be interviewed so much.

In his opinion, it is better to leave such good things as interviews to others, and it is too tiring to talk nonsense with those people.Since there are enough good people on the team, let them go for interviews!
The first playoffs in his career are coming, and Kwame is looking forward to the arrival of the 27th. On that day, he will enter a new level.

After stretching, Kwame came to the court to warm up.

At this time, a guy who was still familiar came from the opposite side, "Kwame, congratulations on making it to the playoffs." James was not particularly good at communication, so he used a fairly conventional way of greeting.But when he accidentally said his sad things, his tone seemed a little low.

"Hey, LeBron, your record this year is already very good. You must know that Ilgauskas is injured, otherwise you will definitely be able to make the playoffs. And this year's Eastern Conference is too strange." How can you comfort people!But what he said is also very correct. This year's Eastern Conference is really weird. It seems that this year is the same as last year. 50 wins can make it into the top three. However, the Cavaliers, who have only lost 38 games, are already sure that they will not be able to enter the playoffs. That is to say, the minimum requirement for the Eastern Conference to enter the playoffs this year is 45 wins, which is a very strange phenomenon.But it also shows one thing from the side, the strength of the East is very average, very average and bad.

"Kwame, let's not talk about this. I want to discuss something with you. Forget it, let's talk about it after the game. This is our last fight this year, and I will definitely win!" James wanted to say something What, but the game is about to begin.James, who was born with the goal of being a champion, didn't even make the playoffs. You must know that he really wants to play with Kwame in the finals. Yes, he wants to play on the same court in the finals.

What can James do with himself?Kwame is a little puzzled, isn't it?Kwame thought of a possibility, but couldn't be sure.But that was already impossible for him.

A brief appearance ceremony, Kidd is undoubtedly the last to appear, and Kwame, who came out first, stood aside.Bryant is still on the sidelines.

"Boss, what were you talking to that guy just now?" Humphries has already settled down as the starting center. Although he is a coolie center, he is at least a starter.Although playing with the main players in the first game will greatly reduce the offensive data, the job of blocking those muscular men for Kwame makes him more popular with fans and coaching staff.Even the ancient Eastern Empire had some advertisers find him, so Humphries was very happy to be the starter.

However, Humphries is also one of the members who hates James. James has been taken care of by referees too much.

"I don't know, LeBron hasn't said it yet, Crawford's bald head told us to start the game. You know I don't want to be fined, that guy dares to blow T at any time." Kwame did not express his guess, That's just a boring thing.

"Let's not talk about him, Boss, look, there are a lot of beauties here today. This means that the whole of Hollywood has moved here!" No wonder Humphries had nothing to say at the beginning, today the entire front three rows were covered by some The stars take over.

There are mostly second- and third-rate female stars, but they are all beauties with beautiful looks and strong bodies.They just want to try their luck tonight, to see if they can catch up with a famous male star or player, so that they can become popular in an instant.Humphries is the kind of player who is willing to help them.

Only then did Kwame notice that there are so many celebrities here today, Jessica Alba, Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, Kim Kardashian...and Paris - Hilton.

Just when Kwame saw her, by coincidence, she also happened to look at Kwame.Hilton winked mischievously at Kwame, who quickly turned away.

Damn it, why is she here!Isn't she a Knicks fan?

I don't know why Kwame felt a little strange when he saw her, Kwame kept telling himself that it was just a one-night stand with her, nothing else.Kwame kept telling himself that he was from Hillary, yes, from Hillary!

Kwame, who successfully self-hypnotized, set foot firmly on the field.

It is said that Ilgauskas' defense is weak, but no matter how weak he is, he is still a seven-foot-four super giant!An average of 2 blocks per game can still be easily achieved.Without the big Z's Cavaliers inside, only Gooden is left to guard.Gooden is very good, the defense is very good, only the height limits him.It has been three years, and as a rookie year, the insiders who started to play in the first year have averaged less than 1 block per game, and the team's James has 0.1 more blocks per game than him.

In front of Kwame, Gooden's defense was like paper. Kwame threw off Gooden from the beginning, and then received a pass from Kidd to dunk easily and scored consecutively.

Miller and Finley became the tools to attract outside defense. The Cavaliers generals could only watch Kwame wreak havoc on the inside. They would rather see Gooden being blown up by Kwame than their own people. Own.

The Lakers are not bad scorers in this team. Under Kidd's combing, everyone is a scorer.

Rudy's defensive strategy is quite simple. Kwame uses his huge defensive area to cut off the inside players from receiving the ball. Kidd defends James alone.

Finley and Miller are notorious defensive black holes, and Vujacic who replaced him was even worse, so Rudy simply let James fall into individual singles. Kidd is very defensive, but James is not at this level who wants to defend. It's better to isolate him.

James looked at these teammates, and then looked at Kidd, Miller, Finley, Kwame, and Odom who could become the Big Five on the opponent's court, saying that his heart was very desolate.But there is still a Kobe sitting on the sidelines!

Pass the ball to Gooden?After this guy lost the restraint of the big Z, he exposed the ills of the offensive end.Diop's negligible offense allowed the opponent's inside line to double-team Gooden continuously. At this time, Gooden's flaws in dealing with double-teaming appeared. As long as the opponent double-teamed, Gooden would make mistakes without accident.

The same goes for other players. When Big Z is there, he can bring the opponent's center forward to the outside, and the inside will have a lot of space for them to break through. Now there is no such easy breakthrough space, and what they met was Kwamegao Dom is either Kwamega Humphries or Humphries plus Odom, a super mobile inside combination, they can only shoot outside.

There is no way, James can only rely on himself, even if he knows that this is the opponent's trap, he can only drill in, the chance of scoring by himself is much higher than their random shots.
