NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 86 Little Steel Cannon Lori!

A team always has various problems, this is normal.

What's not normal is that when the problem falls on himself, it becomes a headache.

Now Xue Liancheng is leading the team alone.

As the leader, he must solve problems and stabilize the situation.

The selfishness shown by Granger, if not handled properly, may become a trigger and detonate the entire team.

Simultaneously.

He also gradually realized a problem. Although he was recognized by Uncle Wei and Uncle Bo, he had not established his own prestige in the team.

Especially among the role players, even Granger didn't take him seriously. What about the others?

You probably also think that a new recruit who has only played three games, what ability can he have to command them?

He breathed another sigh of relief.

Xue Liancheng adjusted his mentality and returned his attention to the game.

If he wants to convince others, first of all... he has to show a performance that convinces others. Others can't solve the problem by yelling and yelling.

After figuring out the joints, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture.

——Everyone pulls away.

That's right!

He wants to restart the mode he used with the Indiana Mountain Men, using breakout tactics to tear apart the Raptors' defense.

This time.

Granger did not play devil's advocate, and consciously retreated towards the bottom line.

The others are relatively more conscious, and they all ambush in the two bottom corners.

everything's ready.

Facing Lowry, Xue Liancheng adjusted his rhythm and prepared for a head-on attack.

"You want to break into me?"

Lori smiled and spoke suddenly, with a somewhat contemptuous expression.

Xue Liancheng didn't take it seriously and smiled and replied, "Well... Congratulations on guessing it right. It's a pity that there is no prize."

Kyle Lowry.

This is a very legendary player. He started in the Memphis Grizzlies and has been a substitute role before. In the 08-09 season, due to Conley's injury, Lowry got a lot of opportunities and played some performances.

After being traded to Houston, he became familiar to the Chinese people. Because he is only 183cm tall and strong, fans affectionately call him a little steel cannon.

In Houston, he established himself firmly and his starting position is quite secure.

But with the rise of Dragic, Lowry was no longer needed again and was eventually traded to Toronto in the north.

And here, Lowry began to shine.

Last season, he scored a career-high 17.9 points, 7.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 1.5 steals. Together with DeRozan and Rudy Gay, he led the Raptors back to the playoffs. He is called the biggest legacy of the All-Stars. beads.

According to the historical trajectory, this season, with the help of Justin Bieber, he will squeeze out Wade and become the starter of the Eastern Conference All-Star, truly completing the transformation from an ordinary player to a star player.

From a substitute to the All-Star level, it has to be said that Lowry is writing a legend in life.

It's not surprising that Lowry is so high-spirited now.

but.

This was also the beginning of his trash name resounding throughout the league.

Comparing Lori's energetic appearance now, Xue Liancheng felt a little funny inexplicably.

Lori obviously felt the sarcasm from Xue Liancheng's smile, and his expression suddenly changed, "What are you laughing at?"

The corners of Xue Liancheng's mouth raised, and his smile became brighter, "When I see your look, I want to laugh..."

But let’s be honest.

Lori's cute baby face is still very cute.

Lowry was speechless on the spot: "..."

Xue Liancheng stopped talking nonsense to Lori and directly confronted him.

In the past, as a senior fan, he had a certain understanding of every star player.

Not to mention how deep they are, but looking at their entire careers, I know their strengths and weaknesses quite well.

What are Lowry's strengths?

He has strong physical fitness and technical ability, extremely fast breakthrough speed, outstanding three-point shooting ability, and his strength is outstanding among guards. Once he breaks through to the inside, he can shoot against people, and his confrontation ability is very good.

but.

His shortcomings are equally obvious.

He is only good at three-pointers and breakthroughs, with very few mid-range shots, and lacks signature offensive methods. His ability to attack tough situations is extremely poor, and he rarely has the ability to turn the tide in games.

Once the three-pointer is missed and the opposing player's defense is in place, Lowry will immediately turn off the fire.

On the defensive end, Lowry's most famous trick is drawing fouls. He is one of the few masters in the league who can stand and draw fouls.

But because of his limited height, the defensive oppression he can bring is extremely limited.

Xue Liancheng recognized this, so he felt there was no need to call a pick-and-roll.

Compare confrontation, compare strength?

Can you beat me?

It turns out.

Xue Liancheng's response was correct.

Even though Lori tried his best, he was still bulldozed by Xue Liancheng.

This time.

Lori couldn't help laughing.

He has always relied on his strong body, excellent confrontation ability, and upper and lower strength advantages to always be invincible when defending defenders.

result.

He was pushed forward by Xue Liancheng all the way, without any resistance at all.

In just a blink of an eye, he was in the paint area.

At this time, boxing champion Johnson came from the left to help defend, but it was still too late.

Xue Liancheng slammed into Lowry with a heavy shoulder, wiped his body directly, and flew to pick the basket from the right.

The absolute height difference, coupled with the intense physical contact, made it impossible for Lori to interfere with Xue Liancheng.

I could only watch as Xue Liancheng made a layup.

Two point hit!

Lori's face turned ugly.

He is known as the top point guard on both offensive and defensive ends in the league. How many unrequited All-Star gems were eaten raw by a rookie last season?

That's right!

Just eat it raw!

There is absolutely no room for resistance.

Really lost face.

One can imagine how bad his mood is now.

Off-site attack and defense.

Lowry pushed the ball through half court with a dark face.

Facing Xue Liancheng, he did not call a pick-and-roll, but continued to adjust the rhythm.

Huh?

Is he preparing to copy his bulldozer mode just now?

Xue Liancheng thought this in his heart and couldn't help but feel happy, "Kyle, are you going to teach me, a newbie, a lesson?"

Lori was stunned for a moment and asked in a conspiratorial tone, "I think I should be qualified..."

The voice did not fall.

Lori started, obviously wanting to catch Xue Liancheng off guard.

But it's a pity.

Lowry miscalculated.

Although Xue Liancheng was talking, his attention was always on Lowry's dribbling action. The moment Lowry started, he used the predictive ability of 0.1 seconds to quickly capture Lowry's traveling direction.

Or to be precise, Lowry started to look down upon him and did not have a very complicated dribbling rhythm at all.

and so.

He predicted it in advance.

The two hit shoulders smoothly...

Lowry felt hit under the iron plate, staggered, and then lost control of the ball with his hand that dribbled the ball inertially.

then.

The next second, the ball was gone.

react.

All he saw was that Xue Liancheng had already pushed the ball and passed him.

His eyelids twitched wildly, and he cursed inwardly.

Fortunately, he was fast enough and caught up quickly.

The two of them fought and struggled with each other all the way.

When he came to the free throw line, Xue Liancheng started directly with the ball.

Lori was ecstatic, and while squeezing with all her strength, she was already accumulating strength to take off, waiting for Xue Liancheng to take action.

result.

Xue Liancheng casually threw the ball into the air and rushed directly to the basket.

Lori was a little confused. He took action so casually?

wrong!

This is not called taking action, but just throwing it away casually.

Throw it into the sky.

It’s really a ghost to be able to get in like this!

He stared at the ball, and just as he was about to jump to grab it, a shadow enveloped him from behind.

next second.

He felt like there was a heavy weight on his body, and it pressed directly on him.

boom!

The sound of a dunk on the rim exploded.
