Chapter 164 The First Battle 3.0
Because it is another "top battle", this game has attracted a lot of attention in both China and the United States. There was no arrangement in the United States, but it was specially tuned to a live broadcast across the United States. CCTV also broadcast this game. Two commentators, Yang Jian and Su Qun, were specially arranged.

Recently, Suqun has been raving about Li Chengming on social media, and Yang Jian always speaks well of Li Chengming when he is explaining, which makes the two of them deeply loved by Li Chengming's fans. This arrangement of CCTV is really rare to conform to the hearts of the people.

Seeing that the Magic quickly gained an advantage in the first quarter, and when the ball was dead, Su Qun mentioned a piece of news: "According to the injury report of the Celtics before the game, Garnett In the last game against the Timberwolves, the stomach muscle strain was not as serious as expected, so he still insisted on playing this game.

"However, judging from the situation in the first quarter, Garnett still didn't take the ball very much. He mainly did defense and screen work. I don't know if it was the reason for the injury."

In the game against his old club, Garnett was very efficient, grabbing 16 rebounds, but scoring only 10. This should be somewhat affected by injuries, and it was obvious from the back that he was a little weak.

It was expected that there would be a truce in this game, but for some reason, he insisted on playing in the end.

It's not uncommon for players to play with injuries, but if it's an insignificant regular season, they should take a rest, and there's no need to stand up for the so-called attendance rate.

Injuries are not the same as the so-called rotation. After all, some minor injuries that are not noticed may be aggravated by strenuous exercise, and it is not impossible to affect your career in the end.

Yang Jian smiled and said with an excuse: "Okay, Li Chengming is also on the court. The Greens attack first. When Garnett saw Li Chengming coming up, his eyes lit up immediately, and he opened his hand to hit a ball!"

It's not that exaggerated, but seeing Li Chengming approaching, Garnett's eyes did turn green.

Li Chengming looked at the wolf king with green blood in his eyes, secretly marveled in his heart, and asked, "If I punch you in the nose, will your nosebleed also be green?"

Garnett was stunned by this inexplicable question, and almost let Li Chengming's long arm take the ball out of his inattention.

After regaining his senses and controlling the ball in his hands again, he sneered and said, "Are you only going to do these sneaky tricks?"

Li Chengming choked without even thinking about it: "Sorry, I was very simple, I don't know these things at all, I learned from you."

"Hmph!" Garnett gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down, but he didn't look at his teammates because he wanted to play this ball by himself.

Rondo next to him also immediately signaled the others to open up space for him. Garnett must have been able to break through the frame or shoot the ball when he hit Li Chengming. go online.

Just kidding, Li Chengming will not look down on Garnett just because some fans criticize him.

Referring to the other two star power forwards Duncan and Nowitzki who are often compared with him, Garnett is not as good as Nowitzki in offense, but stronger in defense. Quite a bit.

You must know that he was also known for his comprehensiveness and omnipotence back then, which is equivalent to James now.

It's a pity that these years in the Timberwolves have generally failed. Although his personal honors are almost full, he cannot be compared with Duncan without a championship.

Especially last year Duncan won the championship again and has already worn four rings. Even if he is not his FMVP this time, no one can obliterate his importance as the core of the team.

This is also the biggest stimulus for Garnett. How can he accept that he is inferior to another person in everything.

So today, in front of Li Chengming, an ignorant rookie who "disrespects his predecessors", he has to teach him a lesson, and let him know that the sky is high and the earth is strong.

"Garnett put up a three-threat, and suddenly started after he took a step. Li Chengming was a step slower, but he still kept up. After losing weight, Li Chengming's speed has improved significantly, and he will not be too in the paint. Weakness. But with Garnett suddenly changing direction, it's unbelievable that this big man can make such a smooth dribble movement.

"Actually, in the Supersonics, there is such a young man now, and that is Durant, who is competing with Li Chengming for the best rookie. Both are named Kevin, and they both have excellent control ability that ordinary big men don't have. Although Durant's draft template is Tracy McGrady and Nowitzki...

"The ball bounced twice in the basket and still came out, but the referee whistled and called Li Chengming's foul..."

The latest weight data of Li Chengming is 286.60 pounds to be precise, which is about 266 kilograms, or 133 kilograms. Although this figure is still eye-catching in the NBA, it is no longer outstanding.

There is no need to look at his speed or agility, just look at his current figure, it is even more obvious when compared with the original fleshy ball, and he already has obvious curve characteristics.

It's just that although he can keep up with Garnett's footsteps, as long as he rushes up, Li Chengming still can't control his body. His defensive experience is still somewhat lacking, especially his hand movements will be strictly controlled.

One is a superstar and the other is a rookie. This rookie may still be being targeted. Of course, the referee will blow his whistle.

Li Chengming can still accept it, but seeing Garnett's triumphant expression always makes him feel a bit like "a villain's success". He knows that the other party may not be exaggerating like this, but it is just to provoke him on purpose.

Mr. Kaiwen is also very successful in manipulating people's mentality. The only bad thing is that he has a high attack and a low defense, and his emotions are easy to explode, so it is easy for others to mess with him.

Li Chengming had messed with him once before, but he didn't seem convinced.

It's a pity that Li Chengming's idea of ​​single-playing him failed to come true, and Garnett did not come to defend him.

After other teams in the league pay more and more attention to Li Chengming, the defensive strategy against him is also initially formed: first, a short and strong inside line who can resist the top, and then supplemented by a striker who is excellent in assisting defense and mopping up. The timing of double-teaming.

Once the double-team is formed, his sight will not be able to see the path of the ball. At this time, as long as there is another defensive player on the outside who is always paying attention, he can intercept his ball.

The main thing is to bully him because he is short and his vision is not wide enough.

And if Li Chengming is too deep and double-teamed the ball at the bottom line, it is difficult to pass it out, and he is prone to mistakes. In the final analysis, he is inexperienced and he is still a little frizzy in handling the ball.

This is not just a problem of just coming back, it has actually been revealed before.

Of course the coaching staff and Li Chengming himself noticed it, but they couldn't improve for a while. They could only accumulate more experience. If they were caught more, they would naturally know how to deal with the ball in this situation.

Just like Howard also came here at the beginning, this has to be understood by oneself, and it is difficult to teach it just by teaching.

Li Chengming's response now is to observe more. Although this may lead to hesitation to stop the ball and miss some good opportunities, at least it is much more stable. When the rest of the team can regain their offensive state, he can safely level up slowly. The best ever.

If the opponent feels that the benefits of double-teaming him are not enough, they will naturally relax a little bit, and that is his chance.

So at this time, Li Chengming is facing Brian Scalabrine, who is 220 meters and weighs about [-] pounds, on the offensive end. On the left and right sides are Garnett and James Posey. Who is better on the two sides? Who grabs the double-team.
