I'm good at basketball too

Chapter 104 Li Ran VS Paul
Rasul Butler, this is Li Ran's opponent today.

The 2002 rookie had an unsatisfactory ending. In 2018, he and his wife both died in a car accident.

But Li Ran can't remind him now, he can't tell him, hey buddy, be careful, you will die in a car accident ten years later.

Isn't this neurosis?
He is a typical 3D player with outstanding shooting and a certain defensive ability.

However, Butler, who is 90 meters tall and weighs only [-] kilograms, looks very thin on the court.

This is also his greatest weakness.

Li Ran knew this from George Karl's pre-match preparations. In this match, he decided to focus on it.

Anthony played against Peja in this game. The legendary small forward is one of the best shooters in league history, but the defense is not good, and Anthony has no pressure.

Only the matchup between Billups and Paul is directly related to the outcome of this game.

Paul is arguably Billups, and poor Chauncey can't beat me in anything about a point guard other than size.

Passing, organization, scoring, breakthrough. . .

Although Paul is only 1.8 meters three, his little black hands are ruthless, and he does not suffer from opponents who are generally short in stature.

More importantly, Paul's small play is the best in league history.

Dealing with Rasul Butler on the offensive end, returning to the defensive end, Li Ran took over the task of defending Paul.

There is also good news in this game. The Hornets' defensive center Tyson Chandler missed the game due to injury.

Even so, most fans still thought it would be a close game when they predicted before the game.

However, after the game started, the trend of the situation rushed in a direction that no one could understand. . . .

Anderson missed the jump ball, and the Hornets took the ball. Paul bounced and slapped the basketball and walked to the frontcourt.

Li Ran stood in front of him immediately, but Paul didn't take it to heart, and commanded his teammates to move like a big boss.

Although it seemed that Paul's dribbling was a bit random, Li Ran didn't try to steal Paul.

Those who can steal in the hands of Paul in this period have not yet been born.

It wasn't until there were 14 seconds left in the time that Paul lowered his center of gravity seriously and looked straight at Li Ran.

He knows that the Nuggets have a good way of playing fast-paced offense recently. From the beginning of this game, he intends to slow down the rhythm.

Anyway, O'Neal is not there, and with the internal and external connections between him and West, Paul believes that the odds of winning this game are still quite high.

Seeing that Paul was finally ready to attack, Li Ran immediately posted it.

Paul instantly felt the pressure pressing towards him like a mountain.

Li Ran really didn't expect that his perimeter defense would be so effective in defending Paul.

Because he inherited Kobe's defensive ability, Li Ran's defensive style can't be said to be somewhat similar to Kobe's, or it can be said to be exactly the same.

And because of the addition of Kobe's headband, his defensive ability has exceeded the limit of 99, and has reached a terrifying 103.
What are Kobe's defensive characteristics?
To put it bluntly, a toad lies on the instep, if it doesn't bite you, it will disgust you.

Paul was stuck at the top of the arc enthusiastically by Li Ran, and there was nothing he could do.

He clings to Paul like a piece of brown candy, completely blocking all his lines of passing, shooting, and driving.

That's right, Li Ran, with a wingspan of 1 meters and a wingspan of 99 meters, directly covered Paul.

Paul said that he has played basketball for more than ten years, and he has never seen such a perverted defender.

Originally, facing Li Ran's defense in this way, Paul had ten thousand ways to get rid of it.

Just kick back and forth on his little short legs and dribble away.

Although short in stature, he is fast.

It wasn't until he met Li Ran that he found out. . .

How is this MMP guy faster than him?

Taller than him, stronger than him, longer than him, faster than him. . .

For the first time, my classmate Pao felt God's full malice towards him.

David West saw something was wrong and hurried up to help Paul pick and roll.

Just as Paul came out from David West's direction, Li Ran appeared in front of him again as if teleported.

Heck!
David West had already disassembled to the inside, and he didn't expect that Paul was entangled again. . .

Paul, who originally wanted to play the first ball by himself, finally panicked. In a hurry, he no longer had the idea of ​​singles. Finally, he saw the player wearing the Hornets jersey in his sight and quickly passed the ball.

It took Paul 20 seconds to get rid of Li Ran's defense and pass the ball.

The Butler people who caught the ball were stupid.

Billups followed closely behind him.

He doesn't have any offensive ability with the ball. Like Peja, he is just a shooter on the offensive end.

Butler, who was entangled by Billups, was even more unbearable than Paul just now.

When Paul's yell sounded in his ears, Butler realized that the remaining time of the attack was less than two seconds!
In desperation, Butler could only simply make a fake move, and then make a strong shot.

The ball didn't even touch the basket, and it fell crookedly towards the ground.

Before the Hornets scrambled for rebounds inside, the timer was already lit red.

In the first attack, the Hornets were rarely defended by the Nuggets for 24 seconds.

You know, this is the Hornets with the top point guard-Chris-58-cannon.

Paul's face was dark, imitating his old enemy with his hips akimbo, and his round face was full of undisguised anger.

"Pretty defense."

Even Billups couldn't imagine that Paul, who he found very difficult, was so easily guarded by Li Ran's men.

And there is no doubt about the lock defense.

Anthony received a pass from Billups in the low post, and against Peja behind him, he turned around and shot lightly.

Peja's interference seemed to be non-existent, and Anthony's turnaround jumper fell directly into the net.

The Nuggets took the lead, and Anthony scored the first point of the game.

Paul dribbled the ball to the frontcourt again. This time he was serious and didn't bother to direct his teammates to move. He started to make moves directly facing Li Ran.

His dribbling rhythm is unpredictable, the ball shuttles back and forth between his legs and behind him at high speed, which is dizzying.

However, for Li Ran, it's perfect!

invalid!

To put it bluntly, Paul dribbles the ball out of the way, and his control area is only as big as his body.

As long as Li Ran doesn't move, Paul will be the same as the last ball, unable to find any angle of the ball.

And, he didn't reach out yet.

As long as you don't try to steal, you won't show your flaws.

Finally, Paul couldn't bear it anymore. After the ball was handed over to his right hand, he suddenly started to take the first step towards Li Ran's left.

During this period, Paul has not suffered a serious knee injury, and his explosive power is very amazing.

"Hmph, silver pewter tip, that's it?"

One step past Li Ran, Paul sneered.

But as soon as the thought came to him, Paul crashed into another man's arms.
