I'm good at basketball too

Chapter 196 Giant Planet

Unknowingly, under the influence of Li Ran, both the Nuggets and the Grizzlies have undergone some very subtle changes.

Anthony and Li Ran, who were originally standard outside players, have frequently appeared at the 4th position since last season. This season, for the Grizzlies, Li Ran even reached the [-]th position in the rotation.

Now Li Ran can play in the other four positions except for the number one position.

The effect is even surprisingly good.

Facing Anthony at the fourth position, as the two major offensive cores of the Nuggets last season, the two are very familiar with each other.

After Anthony learned that Li Ran was traded, he threw a serious temper tantrum at the Nuggets management.

But the Nuggets management can't help it. The Grizzlies have given too much, and no one can refuse that offer.

Under Li Ran's meticulous defense, Anthony's last shot was obviously off track.

Immediately turned around and went inside, but the rebound was well protected by the Nuggets, and Li Ran failed to return.

"careful!"

Watching Gortat grab the rebound and prepare for the second attack, Anthony suddenly shouted at him.

Before the Polish center could react, the ball was slapped by Li Ran.

After blocking the shot, Li Ran ran towards the landing point of the ball.

He saw that Conley was already running towards the landing point.

Fortunately, Curry controlled the ball one step ahead of Conley, and avoided Conley's press with a chic dribble behind his back.

"It's so intense, it's almost stressful."

Li Ran lifted the hem of his jersey and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The intensity of this level of competition is too high. Unknowingly, the Nuggets have played the rhythm of the finals, which made the young Grizzlies struggle.

"I didn't expect such a terrifying team to be created because of my arrival."

You know, this season in history, the Nuggets' starting five were Nene, Kenyon Martin, Anthony, Afflalo and Billups, and JR Smith and Ty Lawson were on the bench.

Not to mention players of Guy Conley's level, not even O'Neal is on the team.

As the core of the team's defense, Li Ran was under the greatest pressure.

He must always pay attention to the leaks of his teammates, and rush to wipe their butts as soon as possible.

Most importantly, Li Ran was also responsible for defending Anthony.

Fortunately, Li Ran now has three top defensive skills, and he can still manage to maintain them.

But Li Ran guessed that the period after O'Neal next time will be the most difficult time for the Grizzlies.

Although Conley, who has played two more years than Curry, is not as sharp as Curry on the offensive end, his two years of experience have made him much more mature than Curry in handling the ball.

Needless to say, JR is now a super sixth man at the same level as Ke 6, and he has comprehensive offense and defense. The naked eye can see that he is in good condition in this game.

Gay and Turkoglu in the third position are similar in strength, but their offensive power is much stronger than the more organized Turks.

Needless to say, the confrontation between Li Ran and Anthony.

"So, now the only advantageous matchup is Randolph playing Gortat?" Li Ran thought for a while and gave up the idea instantly.

Gortat has grown a lot this season. Facing Randolph, he still has an advantage in terms of height and weight. Randolph is not very good at playing him.

"I'll still come."

Li Ran thought about it carefully, and finally decided to hit the giant planet once.

Attack and defense with one hand!

Coming to the frontcourt, Li Ran signaled Curry to give him the ball.

Anthony's defense is far worse than his offense. It can even be said that defensive loopholes are the biggest shortcoming preventing Anthony from becoming a top superstar.

Without much effort, Li Ran passed the melon in one step.

Randolph on the inside was also strong, and got Gortat stuck behind him in advance.

Li Ran scored two points easily with one-handed dunks, and then ran to the backcourt to prepare for defense without looking back.

Anthony hit Li Ran with his back, turning over and hitting a jumper.

For an offensive player of his level, the touch is unstoppable. After Anthony turned over and took off, his position was almost near the three-point line, but the ball still hit the inside of the basket. Straight into the basket.

Li Ran's defense couldn't be more perfect. Even after Anthony turned around, he blocked it immediately.

But in this way of shooting, Li Ran's hand was too far away from Anthony's shooting point.

Li Ran broke through Anthony, made an emergency stop at mid-range and made a hit.

Anthony made a three-pointer from the outside and almost lost his vision, he also hit it!
In the second quarter, after the two sides tried it out, under the circumstances that no one expected, it became a confrontation between the core players of the two sides.

What's more dramatic is that these two were both last year's FMVP.

However, it was George Karl who couldn't sit still first. He knew Li Ran's scoring explosiveness, and he could indeed match up with Anthony when he was in good condition.

Therefore, he took the lead in choosing a change.

In the next attack, after Li Ran entered the three-point line, he found that not only Anthony was chasing after him, but even Guy was following him. Everyone was stupid.

Double team!

Last season, Li Ran was almost never double-teamed, because Anthony and Billups were by his side. As long as Li Ran can distribute the ball, with the strength of Billups, he will definitely be able to distribute the ball to the unguarded on the player.

But now, Li Ran couldn't divide the ball at all.

"Obviously so many offensive points..."

This is the first time that Li Ran is so eager to have organizational skills, but the most important thing about organizational skills is to have excellent field vision. Li Ran still doesn't know how to cultivate this thing.

Seeing the passage of time little by little, Li Ran, who was struggling to protect the ball, was heartbroken.

Two people are two people!
beat!
He sped up his dribble and made a change of tempo.

Sure enough, Anthony was shaken by Li Ran, and he was slightly stunned for half a second.

Seizing this opportunity, Li Ran almost stuck to the ground, and forcefully dribbled the ball out of the encirclement through the slight gap where the two escaped.

The referee next to him widened his eyes to the maximum, carefully watching every detail of the entanglement between the three people.

Breaking out of the encirclement of the two, Li Ran felt a sense of enlightenment.

Now that he was released, Li Ran would not let this opportunity pass.

His calf suddenly exerted strength, and the sole of his foot stepped heavily on the floor, rushing into the inside line like a cannonball.

Li Ran, who was a little bit aggrieved by the beating, decided to release it. Facing Gortat who was terrified and didn't know what to do, he kicked the ground with one foot and jumped up.

At this moment, Gortat's mind flashed, and he remembered the words O'Neill once said to him.

If Lee jumps inside, it must be the best choice not to block him.

So Gortat took a step back from his heart.

What remained in front of Li Ran was the empty basket.

Li Ran flew in the air, turned a full 180 degrees, turned his back to the basket, then pulled the ball up from his lower abdomen with both hands, and dunked the ball into the basket from above his head.

A folding back buckle that shocks everyone!
