After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 169 The Suspense of Scoring

At this time, there was still more than a minute before the end of the third quarter, and the score was 71:93.

At the beginning of this quarter, the Celtics still recovered some points. Of course, there were factors of the Magic's own ups and downs, but with Li Chengming playing and Garnett's injury, the situation changed again.

Although it is said that the underdogs will win, the Green Army does not seem to have the conditions to explode today. What's more, defending Li Chengming and Howard have exhausted them. They lost a lot of energy in the first three quarters, and they lacked Garnett as a defensive replacement. Even more uncomfortable.

Perkins couldn't stop Howard, nor could he hold Li Chengming, let alone the others.

In fact, the biggest problem for the Green Army is that there is no substitute defender inside, but this is also the price that must be paid for the exchange of Garnett and Ray Allen. After all, good things cannot be taken up by one team, right? ?
At this time, Li Chengming was determined to fight by himself. He wanted to beat the opponent to death by himself, and if he didn't kill him, he would maim him, so that they couldn't turn around in the fourth quarter.

Yang Jian said with mixed emotions: "I have never seen Li Chengming's offensive state from domestic players. It is hard to imagine what the national team will be like with him."

Emotions are complicated, but more is joy and anticipation.

The only worry is that other players in the men's basketball team will not be able to keep up and will be held back.

Su Qun laughed, "Li Chengming seems to be possessed by a demon now! But if he is not crazy, he will not survive. His drive to drive the ball into the basket regardless of 21 [-] will scare the opponent. "

More than just a shock, Rivers, who was often dazed on the sidelines, seemed to have been instantly connected to Ren Du's second channel at this time, and kept yelling at the players of the Green Army to double-team him.

When he is off the ball, he must also resolutely go around to prevent him from catching the ball. At least one person will stare at the other person, so that he will not be comfortable on the court.

But today, Li Chengming didn't even hide his jumping. If he was caught in front of him, he would directly cut for the ball. Because of Howard's existence, the Magic team was handy to pass this kind of ball. After hitting the board, the opponent didn't dare to foul anymore, 37 points.

Except for Arroyo, who specially delivers shells to Li Chengming, they are all role players, and this lineup has the upper hand at this time because of the existence of Li Chengming's explosive point. Good defensive work on the line.

Van Gundy also saw that since Li Chengming was so excited and in such a good state, he asked him to play more games and lead the team in this quarter, and let Howard and the others take a good rest and wait for the fourth quarter to go directly to close the game.

But don't expect the opponent to be merciful to him. Since the conventional means can't limit him, then use some unconventional ones, such as small moves, black feet and black elbows, and even pushing and hitting that are obviously running towards people instead of the ball. They all started to appear one after another.

The NBA is not a wild field, but it's so red-eyed that you can do anything when you get hot-headed.

If it weren't for Li Chengming's rough skin and thick flesh, he had added a lot of extra protection to himself, and he was also prepared in his heart, and he was very careful when he landed, maybe he would really be injured.

And Van Gundy was also frightened when he saw this. The last time Li Chengming was hit by Boozer against the Jazz, he had a concussion. He was worried that he would affect his state.

As a result, it only took two games for Li Chengming to regain his form after his comeback. He even contributed a lore in the first game.

But it is also more certain that Li Chengming is indispensable for this Magic team to go further.

Although there are Lewis and Turkoglu on the offensive end, and Howard on the defensive end, Li Chengming's offensive overflow will become a defensive weakness, but he is unstoppable when he explodes, and he must constantly limit double-team attributes. Enough to make him worth playing.

What's more, he will still improve. After half a season, who knows what will happen in the playoffs?

That being the case, it is even more important to ensure his health and absolutely not allow him to be injured.

On this point, Van Gundy has learned lessons from his younger brother. Li Chengming, like Dayao, is from Huaguo, and he may not be so resistant. He must use it sparingly.

Li Chengming's style of play is pure floor style, and it should not be ridiculed, but his identity will magnify everything about him, even his skin color and appearance, and will make opponents treat him extra.

In addition, now there is another referee's intentional or unintentional connivance, and the criminal's actions are even given a common foul, not even a shooting foul.

So after directly using the last timeout of this quarter to replace Li Chengming without hesitation, Van Gundy immediately went to argue with the referee again.

He knows it won't change the penalty, but he has to put pressure on them and not let them do whatever they want.

After all, this is also the home court of the Magic. Even if they want to target Li Chengming, they have to give the Magic a little convenience in other ways.

Of course the referee also knew that they were wrong, but they would not change it, but Van Gundy's pressure was still in place, so the Green Army was blown two consecutive body hair-like fouls, which was considered balanced.

Su Qun and Yang Jian, who were narrated by CCTV, were also taken aback by the big move of the Green Army. Are they here to play ball or to beat people?
They didn't even try to hide it, as if "you have to play if you play KG". At this time, it is obviously correct to replace Li Chengming to rest. Otherwise, I don't know how many points he can score, but Li Chengming may not be healthy. It's all over.

"Li Chengming took a break for the time being. He has already scored 39 points. He is only 3 points away from breaking his own scoring record."

"There is still time in the fourth quarter, but the lead of the Magic has come to 25 points. In the fourth quarter, Li Chengming will probably not play again..."

At the end of the three quarters, the Magic almost scored over 98 points and entered the decisive quarter with an overwhelming advantage of 73:[-].

Li Chengming has played 21 minutes, scored 21 points on 16 of 39 shots, efficient and explosive.

The domestic fans watching this game obviously had to be excited all morning again. Li Chengming's score was scored against the Celtics. It can be said to be full of gold, and his scoring is efficient and expressive.

At the end of the third quarter, there were many game scenes where he took shots against two or three players and still hit them. Then he roared and celebrated, which formed a sharp contrast with the lonely Celtics players behind him, which can be called a world-famous painting.

Of course, the defensive actions of the Green Army were also mentioned. The Green Army fans have already put it on at this time, and they don't even make excuses.

As for whether Li Chengming can finally break 40 points in this game, or even break the previous personal record, it is still unknown.

Because the game has progressed to this stage, there is basically no suspense about the outcome. Howard and the others have rested long enough, and they are obviously waiting for the fourth quarter to close the game. If they continue to widen the gap to 30 points, Li Chengming probably won't Play again.

This is also because the Green Army has made big moves. The coaching staff must consider protecting Li Chengming's body.
