After changing careers, I became No.1 in basketball

Chapter 86 085: Will Jordan win?Echoes the badge on the property!
Since December, the Lakers' performance has been very stable.

After defeating the Hornets until December 12th, the Lakers only lost two games in half a month.

Lost to the Jazz and Kings respectively.

Against the Jazz, Stockton and Malone's pick-and-roll taught the Lakers a lesson.

Even though Shai scored 17 points and 12 assists, not losing to Stockton, he still couldn't stop Malone from blasting 34 points.

Malone has not had a scoring champion in his career, not because he is not strong, but because he happened to meet Jordan.

From the 88-89 season to the present, it has been three seasons, and Malone has won the second place in scoring for three years!

The most outrageous thing is that in the 89-90 season, Malone averaged 31 points per game and could not win the scoring title.

Before Durant became the second child, Malone was already the king of the second child.

Karl Malone, Jordan's exclusive second child.

Therefore, Malone's scoring ability is underestimated.

Such a top scorer at the [-]th position directly killed the Lakers inside.

AC. Green was tortured to death, but Divac couldn't help.

Because early double-teaming is not allowed during this period, it is often only possible to wait for Malone to receive the ball before Divac rushes over.

But Divac's defensive speed is too slow, sometimes Malone's goal is scored, and Divac's people haven't arrived yet.

The same is true for the loss to the Kings. James Worthy avenged the Lakers with 33 points in a single game.

The former Lakers big brother's coquettish off-ball moves made Green reluctant to follow.

And it is difficult for Divac to provide effective help.

Fortunately, on the 15th World War II Kings game, the Lakers completed their revenge.

The adjustment the Lakers made in the second game was also very simple, using Shay to defend Worthy!

In the first game against the Kings, Shay's main opponent was Lionel Simmons, who had beaten him in the previous summer league and had always been proud.

In the previous summer league encounter, Simmons scored 21 points on Shai and won because he was feeling hot.

And now Shay has upgraded the "Shoot Like Maggie" badge to silver quality, so he defended Simmons as Simmons.

Although Worthy was crazy in the first duel, Simmons was defended and only made 14 of 4 shots.

If you don't touch three, you will do three.

The management of the Kings felt remorseful. At that time, they thought that Simmons could become a hero, so they decided not to add rookies, and then decided to replace Worthy with Shai.

Seeing Simmons beat Shay in the summer league, the Kings management was still complacent.

In the end, it was all played by you, Shay, right? ?
After the Kings won Game 15, No. [-] defended Worthy the second time he met Shay.

Simmons is no longer worth Shai's defense.

This trick was effective immediately, and Worthy faced a opponent who was faster than him and younger than him, and he fell into a disadvantage in all aspects.

No one is forever young, but someone is always young.

There will always be younger people who will come into this business to replace you, whether it is playing basketball or selling fruit, it is the same in all walks of life.

Worthy was relieved when he was blocked by Shay and only scored 15 points in the second game.

He admitted that the Lakers traded themselves and chose Shai. From the perspective of management, it was indeed the right choice.

In this way, the Lakers have 5 wins and 2 losses in half a month, and their record is stable in the playoff range.

One and a half months after the start of the new season, Carlisle also saw some problems with the team's lineup.

Especially in the two games lost, the problems of the team became more obvious.

It's just that Carlisle and head coach Dunleavy had some differences on the issue of the lineup.

"Divac can't be traded, he's our go-to guy for positional warfare.

Without him, we would not be able to fight positional warfare. "

Dunleavy refuted Carlisle's idea of ​​trading Divac in a routine management meeting.

Carlisle felt that Divac couldn't keep up with the fast break, and the defense was too slow, so there was really no place for the Lakers.

It's better to change to a jumper with strong athletic ability, which may be more suitable for the Lakers' system.

Divac's support in the positional attack is indeed good, and the diving is also a must.

But none of that is what makes the team win.

But Dunleavy, who likes offense and defense in traditional positions, values ​​Divac very much. In fact, Divac was righted by Dunleavy.

Immediately after he took office, Divac, who was in the second grade at the time, served as the starting center and has remained until now.

Despite being refuted by Dunleavy, Carlisle still insisted on his point of view:
"I know Divac is good, but he's not the best player for Shai.

Isn't this team built around Shay?
So I think, you can consider other people. "

After all, the two coaches looked at the logo man at the same time.

The Logo man looked at the position of the team owner. As always, the position was empty.

Old Buzz doesn't know where to communicate with young girls about their dreams of saving the universe, where can they take care of the team?

Regarding the transaction and adjustment of this kind of role player, the old Bass has never been interested.

West is fully responsible for it.

West touched his chin and comforted the two coaches: "You are all right. I will think about the choice of center forward."

After the two coaches left the office, West rubbed his temples.

West actually found that Divac didn't fit well with the showtime system.

Whether it is oppressive defense or quick play, it is not Divac's strong point.

But West can't find a better candidate for the time being, and Divac only has the last year of his contract left.

The team that wants him would rather wait for the summer to sign a free contract than exchange for a good bargaining chip at this time.

West also doesn't want to take the initiative to put Divac on the shelf. In player transactions, the active party is often the weak one.

If you let others know that you are eager to get a certain player, the other party will frantically lower the price.

You have to put on a "I don't want to sell this player, so you better give a sincere price" attitude.

But what is gratifying is that Shay has been able to lead the team to such good results when the lineup still has a lot of room for improvement.

That kid is indeed full of potential!
In addition to West, there are also people who are struggling with whether to take the initiative.

Is the active party really the weak one?

Connery lay in bed, unable to sleep.

Shay must be too busy, right?

It shouldn't be, no matter how busy you are, you won't have time to call me!

Connery didn't know that people in the 21st century are so busy that they can take a shower for a few days.

The girl rolled over and tried to call Shay, but felt embarrassed.

What if people don't want to have anything to do with me?Will it be annoying for me to pester him all the time?

Just as she was thinking wildly, the phone beside her bed rang!

Connery sat up excitedly from the bed, and immediately put the receiver to his ear: "Hello?"

"Is that Jennifer?"

This time, it wasn't the insurance seller in the receiver, it was Shay's voice!
Connery couldn't help laughing, showing two canine teeth, but quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart:

"It's me, Shay, have you just finished training?"

"Yeah, I don't know if it disturbed your rest."

"No! I was thinking of you, no! I mean, I was reading a book!" Connery's face suddenly turned red like a ripe apple.

"It's fine if I don't bother you, I just want to ask, do you have time during the Christmas holidays?
I would like to invite you to watch the game against the Bulls on the 23rd.

Well for Christmas, the team gave me some front row tickets, but my family isn't here, so...
Do you have the time? "

"Yes, yes, Christmas school is also on holiday!" Connery nodded, but regretted it after agreeing.

Did I promise too soon?

"That's great, come one night early if you can, so I can pick you up at the airport.

Great to not have to spend Christmas alone.

Then see you Jennifer then, bye! "

"Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Connor pressed the handset to his chest, her heart beating crazily.

Spending Christmas alone?
Is Shay inviting me to spend Christmas with him?
This.
Should I bring some presents?
Shay, who was at home, looked at his empty mansion and smiled wryly.

Although Shay didn't have the habit of celebrating foreign festivals, the festive atmosphere on the streets of American was too strong during this time.

Light Zero snapped up Shay and saw it a few times while driving.

It is indeed a free lighthouse country, and there is no money for New Year's goods.

This is how it is easy to eat peanuts for the New Year.

With such a strong festive atmosphere and Shay being alone, it felt a little empty in my heart.

It's also great to have someone to spend the holidays with.

The inner emptiness is resolved, then
You can concentrate on making danzi!
Shay will never allow any negative emotions to affect the game on the 23rd!

Connery thought that Shay finally remembered himself, but in fact, Shay still had a group of muscular men in his mind.

I still think of the most perverted one.

Although the 25th is the Christmas game, for Shay, the 23rd is a serious Christmas game.

If you play the Clippers on the 25th, you can win if you have a hand.

Moreover, Shay's "God rewards hard work" defensive training bar is almost full.

Shay must fuck Danzi hard!
So the next week, Shay and Connery are busy.

Connery shuttles through the mall every day, struggling with what gift to buy Shay.

Shay pulled Cooper to train every day, trying to get the defensive badge out before the 23rd.

Christmas is coming soon, and old Cooper has been away from home all night, and his wife thinks there is someone outside.

She didn't know how hard her husband worked for this family until she came to visit the class one night and saw Cooper being tortured to death by Shay.

While training, Shay is also leading the team to continue winning.

The Lakers have won two of the last three games, and the only loss was to the Pistons, which have not yet completely disintegrated.

In that game, Shay scored 22 points and 7 assists alone, but his teammates pulled back under the strong defense of the Pistons.

老库里16中5，帕金斯14中5，迪瓦茨被兰比尔搞得10投也仅仅4中。

Under the muscular defense of the Pistons, they couldn't find the offensive feeling at all.

And because of Rodman's existence, the number of offensive rebounds between the two sides was 16 to 8 that night, and the Pistons grabbed all the rebounds!
In this game, the Pistons were as wild as ever, with a lot of physical contact.

Shay was hugged and thrown by Rodman or Lambiel many times.

But because he didn't want to miss the game with the Bulls, Shay has been more forbearing.

But even so, the two sides almost broke out in conflict several times.

The closest time, Shay and Rodman almost hugged and gnawed each other, but Perkins hurriedly pulled the two apart:

"Shay, don't you want to fuck Danzi? Think about Danzi's bald head, don't you want to slap him!?"

Danzi: I didn't expect you to be such a senior.

The two sides have been rubbing against each other throughout the game, frantically testing the referee's bottom line.

After the final loss, Lambiel's madman still taunted Shay:
"You can't play really tough basketball, you're just good at juggling moves that make girls happy.

Goodbye sissy, we accept the victory~”

Shay is very angry, but fortunately there is another chance to play the Pistons this season.

In the postgame press conference, Shai didn't complain like a bitch.

He just told reporters: "This intensity is just right, and I even want to increase the intensity. See you next time in Los Angeles, and they will not be able to take away the victory by then."

If a rookie said such things in front of the bad boy army, if it were someone else, the reporters would definitely think that the rookie was showing off.

But Shay, who can beat Lewis and hold Barkley, said this.
The next time the Lakers face the Pistons, Stern will probably have a headache.

The battle with the Pistons was not a happy ending.

But Shay finally found the opponent he was thinking of.

Chicago Bulls!
Only this time against the Pistons, Shay still experienced the difficulty of playing against the strong teams in the East.

The rougher defense in the East makes it extremely difficult to score even a single goal.

The next game against the Bulls will only be more difficult than against the Pistons.

The battle is imminent, and the game between the Lakers and the Bulls is being discussed on TV.

The defending champion Bulls, who are gaining momentum, currently have an exaggerated 18 wins and 3 losses, ranking first in the league.

From November 11th to December 6th, the Bulls were undefeated for a whole month.

It wasn't until December 12 that they played the 7ers back-to-back that the Bulls' winning streak was stopped.

The 76ers prevented the Bulls from continuing their winning streak. Do you think Barkley is very embarrassing?
On the contrary, Barkley was so embarrassed!
Because Sir Flying Pig happened to miss the game that day because of groin discomfort.

As a result, when he was absent, the 76ers actually won the Bulls!
Fliggy: Who the hell invented the control variable method!
This game made the 76ers management make up their mind to sell Fliggy.

In short, the Bulls' loss to the 76ers was a complete accident.

In terms of hard power, no team has been stronger than them this season.

Therefore, even though the Lakers have performed well recently, the hosts on TV still feel that the Lakers are in danger.

Johnny Cole, the Bulls' sideline commentator, was very disdainful of the Lakers and Shay:
"Maji, stop talking to your successor.

He is very strong, but no one in this world can guard against Jordan.

And as you can see, facing the Pistons, the Lakers' offense is completely at a loss.

So the Bulls don't even need to attack, they can deal with the Lakers with defense alone.

The next game will definitely be painful like hell for the Lakers.

The Bulls' defense will drive them nuts.

You can't expect Michael to suffer four big risks in one night like Charles did hahahaha. "

Barkley: Scold again!
Faced with Cole's ridicule, the magician could only laugh silly.

Who made the bull's record really good?He didn't know how to refute.

Shay, Shay, you gotta hold on!
Johnny Cole is just one of the representatives of the Lakers who is not optimistic about it. Most people are waiting to see Jordan destroy Shai.

A Chinese don't want to act recklessly in the NBA, our best players are dispatched!
So the next day, the news headlines in the newspapers were all like this:
"The Lakers should lose by 10 points."

"The final point difference between the Bulls and the Lakers may be 20 points."

"If you don't win by 30 points, it's because of Mike's mercy. After all, the Lakers can't even beat the declining Pistons."

Watching Jordan abuse the Lakers seems to be the program that most American people look forward to this Christmas holiday.

The Spring Festival Gala of the Ugly Country belongs to yes.

But Shay was not affected by these remarks. He still kept his ears shut and focused on torturing Cooper.

So on the night of the 22nd, the day before the start of the game, Shay finally filled the progress bar of the "God Rewards" system for the first time.

Sure enough, after the training progress was filled, Shay received a bronze badge in the defensive category:
"Badge: One quick action (bronze) on the left hand and right hand.

Effect: Slightly increase the host's reaction speed when stealing the ball holder or stealing a pass. "

Xie Yi nodded in satisfaction, this badge and the stealing ability he added earlier echoed it!
Adding more reflexes to the tackle will certainly give Shai a big boost in his tackle threat.

The ability to react is different from the ability to predict, sometimes even though your brain predicts the opponent's intentions.

But your body may not be able to respond.

And this badge can let Xie use his brains and hands to attack quickly with both hands!

After getting the badge, Shay wiped his sweat.

The hard work of the past two months has not been in vain.

Of course, thanks also to Cooper.

Under his guidance, Shai's experience on the defensive end has also increased a lot.

So after getting the badge, Shay looked at the old Cooper who was lying on the ground tired, and yelled at him: "Wait for me, I have something for you."

After all, Shay rushed into the locker room, and hugged a bunch of well-wrapped gift boxes:

"Merry Christmas Cooper for the kids and sister-in-law."

Cooper froze for a moment, then smiled.

You have a conscience, kid.

Cooper was about to reach out for the gift, but Shay added:
"I will continue to work hard for you in the future."

Cooper: .
I can choose not to accept this gift!
After delivering the presents, Shay took a shower humming a little tune and seemed in a good mood.

Cooper shook his head, he was so happy before seeing someone beat Jordan for the first time.

Don't you kid know how scary Jordan is?

Jordan: I just know how scary Shay is.

Shay wasn't just happy because he got his badge before the race started.

Also because he is about to meet the person who spends Christmas with him.

After taking care of himself, Shay drove to the airport in his own Mercedes-Benz that didn't get stuck in traffic.

It was the first time for the two lives to ask a girl out, and they were somewhat excited.

　Thanks to Yihaowei and other big guys for their rewards, thank you everyone!
