Chapter 1277 20+20 (Part [-])
This season is Kevin Love's fourth season and the last season of his rookie contract.

If it weren't for the reason that the Clippers changed their head coach last summer, the team might have signed a contract extension with Love long ago.

After all, during the period when Love was traded to the Clippers, he played quite well.

What's more, Le Fu is still making progress, Le Fu is still very young, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

And the most important thing is that Love is a very practical and easy-to-use player, and he is very suitable for Lan Shengli's offensive and defensive system. Moreover, it was bought from the Timberwolves at a very high price. After the contract ends, it is of course a pity to enter the free agent market.

What's more important is that Love's professionalism deeply moved the team. In addition to this battle with injuries, I believe the management will decide to complete the contract renewal plan for Love as soon as possible.

Moreover, even in battle with injuries, Love is still able to make outstanding performances.

After Jordan was restricted by the "shark hacking tactic", Lan Shengli replaced Love.

Love came to the court to play, and once again grabbed an offensive rebound with one arm.

Because after Love grabbed the offensive rebound twice before, they were passed directly to the outside, and he never took the initiative to attack the second time. Therefore, the Spurs players are all players with the outside line to prevent Love from directly finding the open space. teammate.

But when the defensive players' attention was all on the perimeter, Love made a slap in the face.

I saw Love dribbled the ball with one hand, and made a very simple action with his left arm to assist in holding the ball. At the same time, he half-turned, facing the basket, and it was a mid-range hook directly outside the paint.

Because the Spurs players didn't react at all to this action, so they didn't have any coping strategies.

Because of the slight assistance of the left hand, the ball appeared to be very stable after it was thrown, and it fell towards the basket with a good arc.

"Swipe~!!!"

The final hollow hit.

Love, who fights with one arm, can not only grab offensive rebounds, but also make up the ball.

Love is proving with practical actions that injuries will not make him bow his head, but will only make him stronger.

"You really can't ask for more from Love, he has done everything he can, it's really amazing~!!"

Lan Shengli shook his head, continuing to marvel at Love's performance.

"Defense~!!!, follow the ball holder first~!!, what are you thinking~?!"

Here Popovich was blushing, yelling at the players in a very angry posture.

This kind of defensive quality really can't satisfy the old man.

Popovich waved his palm, and Duncan was coming back.

Although the Spurs made some small mistakes on the defensive end, the offensive end is still playing according to tactics.

After the pick-and-roll, I specifically looked for an opportunity to confront Love.

And the Clippers did not use supplementary defense here, just let Love defend the opponent one-on-one.

"Although only the right hand can make effective defensive interference, I believe Love will make a successful defense. I believe he can~!!"

Lan Shengli still trusted his disciple very much.

I saw that Parker broke through to the basket here, and made a layup with a feint. Love didn't hesitate and covered Parker firmly, which made Parker very embarrassed.

In desperation, Parker had to pass the ball again.

The ball came to Ginobili's hands on the outside.

Because Ginobili scored a three-pointer before, he confidently made another three-pointer.

"Dangdang~!!!"

But this time luck was a little bit worse, the ball bounced out of the frame and failed to hit.

Let's look at rebounding.

Although with the double protection of Bass and Love, Duncan is not a vegetarian. He stretched out his long arms and scrambled.

Because the ball was too close to the basket, Duncan tried to fill the ball directly into the basket, but obviously this method was somewhat difficult.

Love interfered with Duncan with one arm, making it difficult for the latter to make up easily.

"Dangdang~"

The ball bounced twice on the basket, but fell again.

This time, Love finally grasped the best rebounding position, and with Bass carrying Duncan, he directly accepted the rebound.

Love is still subconsciously holding the ball into his arms like a "monkey stealing a peach".

Parker on the side was not given a chance to cut the ball at all.

"Could it be that I underestimated Love's ability, that he can still grab it with one arm~?! It's really unscientific~!!!"

Seeing this, Popovich thought and sighed.

Love is conquering everyone with practical actions.

"Maybe Love can hit double figures in rebounds at halftime, he really deserves to be a rebounding machine~"

Lan Shengli looked at the technical statistics, shook his head, and sighed in the same way.

The Clippers launched an offense.

Here, Love came to the high top arc three-point line to support, holding the ball high with both hands, and his left hand is still assisting, but because he is sideways, his left hand is behind him, and he will not easily make physical contact with the opponent.

Duncan, who defended Love, did not stick too close in order to protect the inside line, and was about three meters away from Love.

"I don't believe it, you dare to shoot a three-pointer with one arm~?!"

Popovich looked at Love and gambled.

As if he heard Popovich's words, Love suddenly focused on the basket, took down the ball he held high, bent his waist and knees, and prepared to shoot.

Seeing this, Duncan originally wanted to follow up, but seeing Love's shot was very fast, so he gave up chasing and defending. Instead, he returned to the inside and prepared to protect the rebound.

Although Love's left hand is still holding the ball to the top of the head, but at the moment of shooting, basically the right hand is fully exerted, basically like a single-arm shot with the right hand.

It looks a bit awkward and irregular, but the arc is still very flat, and it seems to be very powerful~

"Click~, brush~!!!"

Bold shot in exchange for a magical result.

The ball hits the board directly into the frame.

Three point hit.

Love, who hit the dribble like this, smiled.

Le Fu, who was back on defense, showed a charming smile.

Just like what Love said in an interview before, he has fully devoted himself to the game, so he has no worries about fighting with injuries. In that position, he has been emptied so much. Under normal circumstances, Love also has to make a move. of.

So even if it's a one-armed shot, Love's self-confidence is there.

Not afraid at all.

"Haha~, what is Le Fu going to do~?! He promised to fight with injuries, how come he feels stronger than before he was injured~?!"

Seeing Love's performance like this, Lan Shengli also laughed.

After hitting this three-pointer, Love officially scored in double figures in this game, making great strides toward a double-double.
