The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 113 Believe in yourself
Shark hacking tactics, as the name suggests, the answer is on the surface of the puzzle, naturally to limit the big shark O'Neill.

And as O'Neal gradually lost his dominance and is now very old, this tactic has gradually declined, and few people use it.

Many people think that this tactic was invented by Nelson to limit O'Neal. In fact, this strategy of continuous intentional fouls is a long-standing defensive tactic.

Similar tactics were used as early as Chamberlain's period, and the target was naturally Wilt Chamberlain.

It is said that of course Chamberlain has to run all over the field to avoid fouls from his opponents.

Of course, this tactic is not only aimed at the center. It is mainly aimed at players with great lethality and great impact on the game, but poor free throws.

Unfortunately, Li Pu belongs to such a player.

However, Li Pu didn't see it that way!

"How scared are you of me that you actually used the shark-slashing tactic against me?" Li Pu came to the free throw line and still turned his head and said to Paul.

"Stop being narcissistic! Let's make free throws with your heart!" Before Paul could answer, Westbrook sneered.

"you shut up!"

This ugly fellow!Westbrook ruined his good pretentious atmosphere just like that.

Having said that, when Li Pu was ready to make a free throw and regained the basketball, he suddenly felt his whole body sink.

The bloody stress!
It's impossible not to be nervous!
This was still at the home court, and the fans all quieted down without any noise from others, but even so, the pressure in Li Pu's heart still increased exponentially.

"Huh...huh..."

Li Pu felt his shoulders were extremely heavy, as if there was a mountain pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Bang!" Sure enough, even though Li Pu tried his best to adjust, he still didn't make the first shot!
"damn it!"

"Slap!" Just as Li Pu was immersed in self-blame, his ass was slapped. Li Pu turned around and found that Westbrook was patting him.

"Okay, don't put so much pressure on it. Isn't it normal that you can't vote? What are you expecting?"

"Fuck you, what right do you have to say about me?"

"Hey? My free throw percentage this season is 84.2%. Why can't I say your 58% shooting percentage?" Westbrook explained to Li Pu seriously.

"No, what zodiac sign are you? You care so much about my data?"

"Who paid attention to you? Can't I be sensitive to numbers?"

"You are in a hurry, you are in a hurry, you are in a hurry!"

Westbrook blushed without saying a word, and silently retreated beyond the three-point line.

"Comfortable!"

After the quarrel with Westbrook, Li Pu refocused his attention on free throws. Don't tell me, the pressure is much less at the moment. I didn't expect that after the quarrel with Westbrook, there would be such an effect?

After calming down, Li Pu made another free throw.

"boom!"

The basketball hit the back edge of the rim and bounced high.

Almost instantly, the players below huddled together.

But then, the basketball fell straight into the basket.

The ball is in!
"Nice!" Li Pu clenched his fists and called out secretly.

"Why are you happy, you made one of two free throws, what's there to be proud of!" Before leaving, Westbrook hit him next to Li Pu again, as if the scar had healed and he forgot the pain.

"Get lost!" This time it was Li Pu's turn to have nothing to say.

Seeing all this, Paul couldn't help scratching his head, the relationship between the two of them is so weird!

Is this the way young people get along with each other now?They don't fight, do they?

Since Li Pu made another two free throws and one, the Hornets obviously made another profit.

In the next offense, the Hornets scored another 2 points with Paul's layup.

It was the Thunder's turn to attack again. Due to the Hornets' foul on Li Pu in the previous two rounds, the Thunder's offense became fragmented.

This made the Thunder's already cold feel even worse.

"boom!"

The Hornets didn't cut Li Pu this time, but the Thunder didn't score either.

Durant's mid-range shot hit the basket and bounced high. The rebound was blocked by Okafor and Landry. With successful protection, the Hornets made another defense.

Afterwards, in the Hornets' fast break, Paul moved to the weak side beyond the three-point line by a large margin.

Now, the Hornets are really going to take off!

At this time, Brooks began to hesitate, should he change Li Pu?

Replacing Li Pu will affect the team's offensive and defensive ends, and it is in the opponent's arms; but if Li Pu is not replaced and he is left on the court, side effects have already begun to occur.

Just as Brooks was thinking, Li Pu ran past his eyes and at the same time gave Brooks a thumbs up.

Brooks naturally understood what this meant, it was Li Pu who made him believe in himself unconditionally.

The key is that Brooks really felt relieved and no longer prepared to make substitutions, giving Li Pu full trust.

The game continued, and it was the Thunder's turn to attack again.

This time, Li Pu actually took the initiative to ask for the ball inside!
You know, Li Pu didn't have the ability to attack independently in the low post all season long, and his scoring mainly consisted of cutting and eating cakes and second offenses.

Seeing this, Westbrook didn't say much, and directly hoisted the ball into the inside and passed it to Li Pu.

"Aren't you going to foul me? Come on! Foul!"

Li Pu, who was holding the ball, used a crappy post-up tactic to back-up Okafor.

Facing Li Pu's provocation, Okafor turned a deaf ear to it.

Are you kidding me?With your back-up technique, you still use me to foul?Who do you look down on?
Seeing that Okafor ignored him, Li Pu really started to fight back.

Damn, he's serious!

Li Pu's actions frightened everyone else, brother, don't be impulsive!Without this diamond, don't do porcelain work!

At this moment, Li Pu seemed to be an iron-headed boy, but he really started to flinch in the face of Okafor.

"Hahahaha, what is he doing? Is he twitching?" Seeing Li Pu's twitching back-up singles, Barkley in the studio couldn't close his legs with laughter.

Li Pu couldn't hear the laughter in the studio. At this moment, he was still immersed in his actions, thinking that he was playing like Durant!
At the same time, I was still wondering, why didn't the other party foul on me?
Li Pu turned around, only to find that Okafor was still in front of him. Seeing that it was going to be three seconds, Li Pu chose to hook the defender.

Miss!

Obviously, Li Pu doesn't have that skill!
The ball bounced off the rim, and just as Okafor was about to grab the rebound, Li Pu grabbed the rebound before him.

At this moment, Okafor's face became extremely ugly, and he quickly reached out for a foul, but it was too late.

Li Pu dunked the ball heavily into the basket.

"Didi, green No. 50, fouled by the thug, an extra penalty!"

Hearing the referee's penalty, Li Pu happily said to Okafor, "I told you to foul earlier. Look, isn't this a 2+1 by me?"
