Chapter 772 Harden, the ability to belong to the champion (Part [-])
"When did the Clippers become so good~?!"

"I don't know, I just know that they changed a head coach and picked a champion~"

"No matter how good the head coach is, he's not a player after all. Apart from passing two good balls, the No. [-] pick didn't make much contribution~!"

"That's right, it's not like playing against the defending champion, and it's already leading by 8 points~!!"

Inside the Staples Center, fans watched the game worriedly and began to discuss.

Less than 5 minutes into the first quarter, the Clippers have already led by 8 points.

The Lakers' offense fell into a stalemate, being intercepted by the Clippers again and again, and successfully counterattacked.

Jordan and Johnson's dunks silenced the Lakers fans.

While speaking, Kobe made a hasty three-pointer and hit the iron again, and Harden received the rebound.

"Quickly return to defense~!! Watch out for your own people~!!!"

Here Kobe saw that Harden was about to speed up and counterattack, so he immediately yelled at his teammates to remind him.

The Twin Towers returned to defense quickly this time, and the Lakers quickly organized a defensive position.

Seeing this, Harden stopped pursuing a counterattack, but settled down and prepared to attack in a position.

Here, because the Lakers quickly returned to defense, it was not Kobe who was facing Harden, but Fisher.

Seeing this, Harden immediately signaled his teammates to open up the space. Harden seemed to be ready to play singles.

"Yes~, although Fisher's individual defensive ability is very strong, and although he has rich experience, as long as you remember what we have drilled before, you will definitely be able to get a chance to score~!!"

Lan Shengli looked at Harden who had already started to dribble under the crotch at the top arc, and said to himself.

"Playing the Lakers in the opening game, do you have any ideas~?!"

Two days ago, in the training hall of the Clippers base, Lan Shengli asked Harden who had just finished warming up.

"What do you mean~?!"

Harden frowned and asked.

"The backcourt combination of the Lakers is Fisher and Kobe. If these two old guys don't adopt some special methods, you will easily suffer, whether it is offense or defense~!!"

Lan Shengli responded.

"I grew up watching Kobe's games. I fantasized about being able to play against Kobe in NBA games and score points on him~!! I won't suffer~!!"

Harden said confidently.

"No, you will definitely suffer. Kobe's defensive ability, especially the anticipation of rookie players, is very good. I ask you not to dribble too much in front of him, so that you will not only lose the ball, but even get caught by the opponent. Fight back, if you don't listen to me, I might let you obediently wave the towel on the bench~"

Lan Shengli said.

"Cut~"

Hearing what Lan Shengli said, Harden said with disdain.

"Of course, if you take my advice, you will not only play very well, but you may even have the chance to overwhelm Kobe~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak.

"Really or not~?!"

Harden immediately asked very curiously.

"Of course, but there must be a prerequisite, that is, when you face Fisher and face him one-on-one, I have a trick that allows you to score points very easily~!!"

Lan Shengli said.

Now that this situation has emerged, Harden has faced Fisher one-on-one.

Then let's see what idea Lan Shengli gave Harden.

I saw Harden facing Fisher, slowly dribbling the ball under his crotch while moving forward. Fisher kept a certain distance to prevent Harden from making a sudden start.

"When you face Fisher, find the rhythm by dribbling the ball under the crotch, and then pretend to break through with the left-handed dribble. Remember to show some flaws at this time, so that Fisher feels that he can directly break the ball~ !!Because Fisher is a player who likes stealing the ball~!!"

Harden recalled Lan Shengli's previous "suggestion", dribbled to his left hand in disguise, and suddenly accelerated and broke through.

Seeing this, Fisher immediately turned sideways, ready to defend against Fisher.

"The moment he made physical contact with Fisher who was sideways, he immediately raised his shooting arm~!! Because at this time Fisher will definitely reach out and steal the ball~!"

Harden continued to think about it, and continued to operate.

The moment he made physical contact with Fisher who was sideways, Harden immediately hugged the ball with both hands and swung it forward.

"What~?! He~?! How did he know that I was going to steal the ball~?! How did he predict it~?! Could it be that he wanted to make my thug foul~?!"

Here Fisher saw that his arm that had already pressed down to steal the ball hit Harden's arms, and immediately became puzzled.

"After hitting Fisher's arm, make a shooting action immediately, no matter how substandard the action is, no matter how outrageous the shot is, throw the ball as much as possible, complete the shooting action, and then wait for the reward to come ~!!"

Harden recalled Lan Shengli's last instruction, and directly threw the ball towards the basket with both hands.

"Beep~!!!"

The "reward" really came.

Even though Fisher had quickly retracted his arm, the referee's whistle sounded.

And made a shooting foul.

Although the ball flew into the auditorium indiscriminately, this did not affect Harden's walk to the free throw line.

And looking at the slow motion, this is still a foul from outside the three-point line, which should be three free throws.

"That kind of shooting posture is not a normal shot at all. This guy must know that I will steal the ball, so he deliberately fouled me. It is incredible that a rookie can make such a prediction and choice~!!"

Fisher pinched his waist with both hands. Although he looked helpless, he still admitted the foul in his heart.

Harden, who was walking towards the free throw line, looked back at Lan Shengli, nodded, and Lan Shengli gave a thumbs up.

"Although scoring the ball in such a way seems a little unrighteous, but as long as you can score, it is a good goal~!! It is an important factor for the game~!"

Lan Shengli sighed.

For a rookie like Harden to be able to "cheat" a foul from an experienced veteran like Fisher, in addition to the proper tactical arrangement of Lan Shengli, his super execution ability is also a very important factor.

If Harden can hit all three free throws, the Clippers will lead to double digits.

In fact, two free throws are enough.

While speaking, Harden was already standing at the free throw line.

"Shh~!!!"

Harden was still disturbed by boos all over the sky.

"Swipe~!!"

Harden, who has adapted to the NBA game environment, made the first free throw steadily.

"Whoo~"

"I want to overshadow Kobe, I want to prove that I have the ability to be the champion~!!!"
