Chapter 24 The Stormy First Half
After scoring 8 points in the opening game, Dugu Ming raised his fists and saluted the parents in the auditorium.

"My son's father, Xiao Ming also played very well in the United States. It seems that we are just worrying about it."

Dugu Ming's mother said with relief.

"Ah."

My father rubbed his chin proudly, and said rather relieved: "The gangsters in the domestic media know how to follow the wind and see that Xiaoming's regular season is not going well, so they don't like all kinds of sarcasm. Are you slapped in the face? The children of my Dugu family are the best players no matter where they go!"

Under the leadership of Duguming, the 76ers played an 8-0 climax and gave the Lakers a big blow. Seeing that the situation was not going well, Zen master Jackson hurriedly called a timeout.

All the generals of the Lakers returned to the bench, all of them were downcast, and Fox was even more so. Within 1 minute, he was forced to score a three-pointer, suffered two dunks, and was forced to foul once. He couldn't bear the abuse. Always wonder why life is so hard.

"Head up."

The Zen master said calmly.

Fox was stunned, slowly raised his head, and saw Zen Master's calm and loving eyes.

"Coach, I'm sorry..."

Fox was a little apprehensive, he thought that the Zen master would give him a burst of scolding...

"You did a good job."

"You don't have to blame yourself for his goals," Jackson said.

Fox was even more ashamed when he heard the comfort, "His speed and strength are stronger than mine..."

"It's ok!"

There was a sly light in the Zen master's eyes: "Compared with you, he is indeed younger and more energetic, but such a young man has a drawback."

Speaking of this, Zen Master glanced at Kobe intentionally or unintentionally, "They all lack calmness! Many times, they will quickly swell after a certain moment, and this is the best time to beat them."

"Fox, you have more experience and know how to control the field better than him. As long as you do your job well, you will not be defeated by him."

Speaking of this, Zen master's tone suddenly became severe, "compared to defense, I am really disappointed with your offense! Look at the first two rounds, your performance is like sleepwalking! I can't see Your past smooth passing and space pulling, I see sloppy shots, and random running! This is not the defending champion team I know! I know you are desperate to win the next game , but my children, you should understand that patience and calm are the only ways to win the game!"

Seeing that all the generals of the Lakers nodded seriously, Zen master eased his tone and took out the tactical board, "Okay, time is precious, let's take a look at the tactics..."

The two sides returned to the field again.

After some training by Zen Master, the Lakers' offense has become much smoother. They played very patiently, especially Horry and Fox, the two support points of the inside and outside. They used a lot of running to cover the ball. The constant transfer on the court makes the 76ers feel uncomfortable, because they can't limit the Sharks by shrinking the space.

Sure enough, it didn't take long. After Horry got Hill involved, O'Neal got the basketball in the paint and singled Uncle Mu to score.

O'Neal, who broke the scoring drought, was like a wild beast being released. He raised his head and roared, which greatly boosted the morale of the Lakers.

"You can try and break through again!"

Fox resorted to aggressive method.

"I will!"

Duguming asked for the ball, turned left and right and swayed past Fox, trying to reach the inside line, Fox stretched out his foot insidiously, and his knee slammed into Duguming's outer thigh hard.

Duguming groaned, lost his balance and fell to the ground, at the same time the referee blew his whistle to signal a throw-in.

Fox was triumphant, looked at Dugu Ming on the ground and began to spout trash talk, "Did you fall down so quickly? All the girls on the streets of Los Angeles are more powerful than you!"

Duguming didn't speak. His response was to hit Fox's ribs hard with an elbow during the next breakthrough. Of course, he didn't escape the referee's eyes and was sentenced to an offensive foul.

Fox grimaced in pain, but he was very happy in his heart, because the little trick suggested by the Zen master had initially paid off.

The Lakers took the opportunity to narrow the score to four points.

Fox's off-ball defense against Duguming became even dirtier. He always greeted Duguming with his arms or knees when he had nothing to do, and even blocked his sight when he was catching the ball.

Harper, on the other hand, would sometimes give up defending Snow and help defend Iverson or Duguming. This is an extremely clever move. Everyone knows that Snow is the worst scoring ability among the 76 players on the 5ers field. .

In the next few rounds, Duguming missed two singles, and once the ball was taken away by Snow, he played unsatisfactorily.

"Be careful, they are provoking you!"

Iverson reminded.

Duguming suddenly came to his senses, thinking back to what Fox and Snow had done just now, it really seemed to be stimulating him, and he was indeed playing a little irrationally.

"I know how to do it!"

Duguming calmed down and looked up at the scoreboard. It was 14 to 13, and the Lakers had already caught up.

"Hey, didn't you say you could score from my left foot? Do it again if you have the ability?"

Fox didn't know that his little trick had been seen through, and he continued to provoke Dugu Ming with his trash talk.

Du Guming ignored it, ran to the outside line to cover, and then suddenly rushed into the inside line.

Snow passed the ball to his hands very precisely, Dugu Ming caught the ball and took a quick step. Kobe and Harper had already been eyeing it, and ambushed them from both sides. They knew that Dugu Ming was on fire at the moment, and was finishing Before a deflated dunk, he will never pass the ball.

Unexpectedly, after Dugu Ming rushed inside and attracted all the defenses, he suddenly flicked his wrist and passed the ball directly to the bottom corner without looking at anyone. Iverson caught the ball and made a three-pointer!
Duguming's sudden change made the Lakers generals a little unexpected, Zen master couldn't help frowning, this NBA rookie's mind is so calm, he regained his composure in a few minutes.

How did the Zen master know that Duguming's ups and downs in life have already honed his heart to be steadfast and able to understand the overall situation.

After Duguming regained his form, the offensive engine of the 76ers started running again. Under the control of Duguming and Snow, the basketball continued to be assigned to open positions. The offensive efficiency was very high. Use the strengthened body and breakthrough skills to rush inside and score.

Similarly, the Lakers also played a wonderful triangle offense. The two big killers Kobe and O'Neal are invincible on the court. The 76ers can't defend them one-on-one. Played a beautiful battle.

After the second quarter, the 76ers led the Lakers by 55 points 53-2.
