The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 92 preview in advance
At the end of the halftime, the score of the two teams was 71:69. If it were not for the fierce competition in the second half of the first half, the score of the two teams would even break through 80 points.

"What are you doing?"

In the locker room, an angry Cousins ​​yelled at Li Pu.

"I'm just playing seriously. Is there a problem?" Li Pu shrugged, showing sincerity.

"You..." Cousins ​​didn't know how to refute Li Pu's answer.

What Li Pu said is correct, he is indeed playing well, there is no problem at all, you can't say that he is serious about defense and trying to score goals is wrong, right?
but……

For a while, Cousins ​​felt that his mouth could not keep up with the speed of his brain.

"What's all the fuss about?" At this moment, a man with a big gold chain, a big gold watch, and a dark sunglasses came in domineeringly from the dressing room.

Impressively their assistant coach, Carmelo Anthony.

As the saying goes: Whether New York is in chaos or not, Gua Ge has the final say.

Anthony's prestige, how can this group of rookies compare?
Seeing Anthony walk in, the entire locker room became much quieter.

"One by one, have the energy to use it on the court? What kind of skill is it in the locker room?"

After speaking, Anthony came in front of Li Pu again. Although he wanted to raise his head facing Li Pu, his aura had a condescending feeling.

"Prince, you're pretty good at blocking me, but why did you play like shi in the first half? But fortunately, you played well in the back, keep it up!" Anthony patted Li Pu's arm, Then he turned his head to look at the others, and said loudly again: "When you get to the court, play hard. If you are punished by those moths, if you want to prove yourself, use your results to speak! Anyone who refuses to accept it can come to me!"

The scene where Anthony stunned the audience happened to be seen by the head coach Lawrence Frank who walked into the locker room.

He is only 40 years old this year, but he has been the head coach of the Nets for 7 years before. He even coached the Big Air. He once created an NBA record of 14 consecutive victories for a new coach. He was also the youngest player in NBA history coach.

After being fired by the Nets last season, he came to the Celtics this season as an assistant to Doc Rivers.

Although he is young, he has rich coaching experience. Seeing the scene at this time, he knows that the scene has been controlled by Gua Ge.

So he said directly: "Everyone played well! The next game, I think the second grade will not sit still, just let go and play! I hope everyone can dedicate a wonderful game to the fans!"

Just like that, the intermission ended and the game resumed.

The sophomore team took the lead on offense.

Harden came to the front court with the ball, faced Wall's defense, and used his strong body to force a layup. 71 tied, and the two teams returned to the same starting line again.

When it was the turn of the first-year team to attack, the second-year team continued the defense at the end of the first half, without fear of confrontation, fighting fiercely, and playing very actively.

In this way, it becomes very difficult for the first-year team to score.

Wall gave the ball to Griffin because he was out of position, and DeRozan was facing him.

Whether it is height or weight, Griffin is absolutely in trouble, so after he got the ball, he immediately started playing back.

If it was the defensive level at the beginning of the first half, DeRozan would be killed, and the second-year team would not be able to help defend.

But it's different now. The two sides are playing for real, and the second-year team will naturally have to help defend.

Seeing Blair double-teaming himself, Griffin passed the ball inside the double-team and gave the ball to Li Pu.

Li Pu didn't have time to think about it, so he directly chose to split the buckle with one hand.

71: 73.

"Don't get me wrong, I just play well!" Griffin took the initiative to say to Li Pu when he returned to defense.

"I understand, let's play well!"

The two looked at each other, and said nothing more, everything was in silence.

Strictly speaking, Griffin and Li Pu have no grievances at all. It is nothing more than because both of them have entered the All-Stars, so they were used as a comparison by the media and maliciously hyped.

In addition, Li Pu beat Griffin to the ground before, which made Griffin not happy with Li Pu, but still recognized Li Pu's strength.

It's just that when he saw that everyone didn't talk to him in the locker room, he followed the crowd.

And what Anthony said during the intermission made Griffin feel a little ashamed, and he just played honestly, why bother thinking about what is there?

On the offensive end, Griffin and DeRozan are misplaced, so they are also misplaced on the defensive end.

DeRozan broke through Griffin's defense effortlessly on the offensive end, but was rejected by Li Pu when he flew into the penalty area and dunked.

Lip's timing of assisting the defense with the ball was particularly good, not only successfully preventing DeRozan from attacking the basket, but also preventing him from passing the ball to Blair, who was unmarked behind Lip.

This is Li Pu's defensive strength. The large defense area and excellent overflow speed make his defense airtight and leak-free.

After Li Pu blocked the shot, the rebound was grabbed by Griffin, and he immediately went on a fast break.

Don't look at Griffin's short hands, but his ball handling ability is quite good, even the younger sister of the Kardashian family, Jenna, said yes!

During the fast break, Griffin came to the frontcourt and passed a direct long pass to Li Pu who had surpassed him.

After Li Pu received the ball, he stepped on the free throw line and took off, a Jordan-style gliding and flying dunk, which made the audience eagerly hooked.

"This Prince's dunk is so cool!"

"Yes! Not worse than Griffin at all, why doesn't he participate in the dunk contest?"

"Yeah, yeah, his dunk matchup with Griffin, I'm definitely willing to pay for a ticket!"

The constant voices of discussion behind him continued to reach Bledsoe's ears, which made Bledsoe angry, but also deeply despaired in his heart.

Why?That guy performed so poorly during the joint trial training?But it's been less than a year, and the situation where I'm working so hard, but the gap between him and him is getting bigger and bigger, and even his taillights are almost invisible?

Talent, is it really that scary?

For a while, Bledsoe was a little suspicious of life.

The game on the field continues.

The explosive combination of Griffin and Li Pu is really enjoyable, but the second-year team is also not a vegetarian.

Harden faced Fields with a three-pointer and actually hit it. You must know that Fields almost blocked his face with this shot.

I have to say that Harden played extremely well tonight, scoring as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, which is quite different from his previous performance in the Thunder.

In this way, the offensive efficiency of the two sides is extremely high, but different from the first half, now they are facing the defense, they are definitely at the elite level, which is not the same as the first half.
