Chapter 864 Do You Want to Hit the Ball While Standing?

Divac was shocked at this moment, and Weber, including Peja, also shuddered.

If he was really blushing and swearing, the Kings would not take it seriously, because the reckless man is too easy to deal with. It would be a good thing if Divac affected Li Shengli's mentality.

But the problem is that Li Shengli acted too calmly.

Not only did his face remain normal and his attitude gentle, he even spoke in a calm and calm manner, but these words still made the king feel too tough, as if... he didn't regard Divac as a person at all.

But in fact, Divac is still the starting center of the Western Conference All-Stars this season!

Although he can start because Li Shengli did not participate in the All-Star Game, this does not deny Divac's personal strength and influence. There must be All-Stars of this level, but even so... Li Shengli still doesn't treat him as a human being? !

At this time, although Weber and Peja didn't want to admit it... there was still a gap between superstars, superstars, and all-stars. And when Li Shengli stood here today, it might not just be here, whether it was honors or fists, No matter who you say, you have to endure it, because he is the only one who is the real No. 1 super giant leading the league's first tier.

As for Divac, who is the most angry.

Now his mind is blank, and all his thoughts are to defeat Li Shengli head-on. As soon as the pre-match episode is over... there is almost no suspense about the jump ball. When Li Shengli touches the ball, Divac feels that he may have just seen Li Shengli's creak. nest.

…

The first attack was the Lakers'.

With Divac around, four teammates gave the ball to Li Shengli without saying a word. Li Shengli received the ball near the free throw line. He immediately turned around and played with his back after getting the ball. Divac, who was bursting with all his strength, stayed close to the defense. .

Want to prevent Li Shengli's back attack?

Divac actually thought about this before the game.

In order to restrict the Lakers' Li Shengli and Barkley, the original official introduced a five-second rule for back-up play. This rule... Especially when Li Shengli was near the free throw line, he felt that maybe three seconds would be enough, and the rest Several of Webb's teammates can help. This is how the Kings played against the Lakers before.

But, it seems a little different this time!

Weber, who was ready to support at any time, could see clearly that Divac probably didn't even take the first wave of confrontation and was directly pushed back. Then Li Shengli's offensive continued unabated, with a series of bulldozer-like crushing The style of play looks like Divac is leaning on Li Shengli... being pushed away?

"Damn it, how is that possible?"

Weber felt it was too perverted, because he had never practiced alone with Divac. It was not easy for him to beat Divac, but Li Shengli just pushed like this... so flat?

It even seemed to be more than that. He pushed Divac out of bounds, turned around, and tiptoed the ball into the basket.

He really stood on tiptoe and put the ball in!

It would be okay if this ball was a dunk. The key is that this way of scoring is too... too casual. It also seems that Divac has no ability to resist. What's more important is that the entire back-up process only lasted three seconds. , Weber didn’t even have time to support him.

This...is this the case solved?

Damn, five seconds of back-up play will definitely limit Barkley!

Everyone felt that they wanted to restrict Li Shengli, and it was estimated that the time for back-up shots would have to be reduced by two seconds.

But, then again, this ball was crushing. Webber and others were stunned and felt that... it wouldn't last long. This kind of attack just matched the King's defensive strategy of consuming Li Shengli.

…

Back to the King's offense.

The Lakers also knew before the game that Adelman's strategy was to use the center as the starting point, with Divac holding the ball near the free throw line. With his vision covering all his teammates, he organized the team's offense.

Now that you know it, you have to find a way to deal with it.

With the Kings passing the ball so much, stealing is of course the most direct and effective way, so Phil Jackson's defensive strategy was to use Adelman's organizing center, and this time... Divac did as expected. Holding the ball near the free throw line, the other four actively moved away from the defense.

"start running!"

"Chris!"

"Yes, give it to me!"

Chris Webber, who sank to the baseline and then ran back to find the opportunity, signaled for the ball, and Divac did look like he was going to pass it, but the intention of the pass was too obvious... Artest kicked hard and advanced ahead of time. Plugged into the connection between the two.

"No, not Chris!"

"Damn, wrong stop!"

"Fuck, it's Peja, stop him!"

Artest yelled, realizing that he had been tricked, and he inserted himself into the connection between Webber and Divac, and Peja's opportunity came out, so he yelled for his teammates to help Peja, but after shouting, Everyone else was dumbfounded because Divac didn't pass the ball. Li Shengli showed agility that didn't match his body and immediately turned sideways to intercept the pass.

"Damn, is this okay?"

"Damn it, boss, you're so beautiful!"

"Stop talking nonsense, Kobe, charge!"

When Li Shengli intercepted the interception, his body was forward, so he was in a fast break position much faster than Divac. When he turned around and threw it to Kobe... the only one the Kings could defend in time was standing at a 45-degree angle and preparing to catch the ball. Peja scored a three-pointer, but for the Lakers, Li Shengli, Kobe and Fisher all rushed.

Kobe didn't let go of the ball. When he ran to the basket, he knew Peja was chasing after him.

He still had some experience in guarding behind the ball, so Kobe clicked and sent the flying Peja out of bounds. He rose to the sky and made a dunk. And this shot... the Kings had given up after Peja.

…

2 points, 1 assist and 1 steal?

Just at the beginning, Weber suddenly felt that Divac really had to kneel down to play today, because all the Kings' offensive and defensive problems were caused by Divac, and the Lakers' perfect offensive and defensive problems were all played by Li Shengli. If this continues, maybe... ...Divac didn't even have a chance to kneel down and play. He was simply beaten into a corpse on the court and was completely unable to play his due role.

If the number of specimens of one offense and one defense is not large enough, it is not enough to judge who is kneeling and who is standing.

The next half quarter should be enough.

The Lakers took 12 shots in the first half of the quarter, 7 of which were made by Li Shengli. The efficiency of 7 of 7 made the entire Sleep Train Arena wake up from the dream of "Kings Championship". Because of Li Shengli's 7 shots, Diva Ci can't even put up a decent defensive posture.

It turned out to be...

A wave of clear water?

Is this a resurgence of the violent center from the 1990s?

…

In fact, according to the Kings' defensive strategy, Divac cannot suppress Li Shengli, so Weber and Peja will join the team in defense.

The problem is that brothers Weber and Peja were about to vomit. They originally thought that the great Princeton system was invincible, but they never expected...that greatness would be defeated by cruel hands.

To understand the entire Princeton system, we also need to rely on ultra-high frequency signature counter runs to find opportunities.

But the current system of the Lakers... relies on Li Shengli's endless waves of strong play to directly create opportunities. Weber supported Divac, but the Lakers' big and small forwards Samaki and Artest took the ball. He scored as soon as he took the shot, and when Weber and Peja went to greet him again, Divac was beaten again.

However, the Lakers' threats don't end there.

Divac couldn't guard him and he did use a foul, but Li Shengli made 2 of 2 free throws and forced him to give up the idea. Among the 12 shots taken by the Lakers... Samaki and Artest each took a direct pass. The assist ball, Kobe Bryant's opening fast break is also one, so Li Shengli has 3 assists.

The most terrible thing is that the Lakers' last two shots also came from Li Shengli.

Samaki and Artest would rather be a transit point.

In the strongest side triangle formed by Artest, Kobe and Li Shengli, Artest gave the ball to Kobe and scored, while the other ball was on the other side... Samaki passed it to Fisher, and Fisher The opportunity was good but he didn't score, that is, Fisher didn't score, so the Lakers only hit 11-for-12.

But does the Lakers' threat end here?

This is still the offensive end. Maybe before the game, the entire Kings did not expect that their tactical operation today would be so unsmooth. Starting from Li Shengli... the center got 3 steals in the first half of the quarter, all of which were stolen by Divac, and several others. The position is also in advance of passing the ball and connecting, and there are also a lot of steals.

As a result, he scored 7 of 7 in 6 minutes and 2 of 2 free throws.

Li Shengli had 16 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals.

There is no way around the lack of rebounds. The Kings can't even put up a decent offense for a few rounds. Li Shengli's defensive position on Divac is still outside. In addition, the Lakers' offense went 11-for-12 without any frontcourt rebounds. Both rebounds were missed. It's the limit, and it's even more impossible to block shots. The more Divac beats, the more he shakes, and he can't control his shaking, because his 6 minutes... all the data are 0, if 1 foul and 6 turnovers are not included, the data if.

…

The current situation...

The Lakers scored 24 points in the half quarter and the Kings scored 8 points in the half quarter, which is three times the number. Maybe after this game, they will set a historical record in the playoffs, or maybe in the first quarter, because they were already 16 points behind at the half quarter, and In this record, Adelman couldn't stand the fact that the King was the background, so he called a timeout. After Weber said a few words to him, his face turned extremely ugly.

"Damn, why is it so hard?"

"Maybe... there was a slight problem with our pre-match predictions."

"Who has the heart to care about this, and you think this is a small problem? If you were on the court, you would know how desperate we are. He... we are not on the same level as him at all!" Weber's face turned red, and he spoke too much. He didn't say anything, he just glanced at Divac and didn't know what to say about him.

I told you to kneel down and beat me!

As expected, you really hit me on your knees!

Weber desperately felt that the world was unfair, and according to Li Shengli's data growth rate, he didn't know how many double figures he could hit, but he definitely knew... Divac, who was playing against that man, had an overwhelming number of mistakes. Damn it, if you continue to play, you will definitely hit double figures.

Maybe this is the only undefeated area where Divac can compete with Li Shengli?

Of course, if the number of fouls can break double, Divac may also achieve a double-double.

But now all the benign data are all 0, which means that Divac really knelt down. He was not even qualified to kneel down and apologize, and was directly fucked into a mess. Weber was angry at Divac's powerlessness, but At the same time, I also sympathize with Divac's experience, because maybe there are not many people who can stand and fight with Li Shengli like he is today in this hellish place in the paint.

What's more important is the lingering feeling of powerlessness.

As long as Li Shengli is in the west, no one will be able to stand in the west.

In the beginning, even if he was as strong as Jordan, there were bullies from the Pistons who could suppress him for a while, but now Li Shengli... how could any bullies suppress him? He is the most powerful bully, and every team that encounters this situation may not even have the opportunity to play dirty, and no one can think of challenging the biggest bully in Los Angeles.

Real powerlessness does not mean being unable to beat a ball.

The real powerlessness is... no matter from any level, not even the crooked ways can defeat this existence that destroys the balance.

The only thing Webber can comfort himself with is that this is the first game, and the first game has only lasted half a quarter. Maybe putting Divac on the bench can eliminate the opponent's irritable state?

Ask Divac to kneel, Divac will really kneel.

You got what you wanted, what else do you want?

At the very least... at the very least, you have to be treated decently, right?
