Chapter 271: Kobe's unique skills

After losing to the Warriors, the Lakers came to 54 wins and 16 losses.
They are still ranked first in the West, leading the Spurs with a half win.
The next opponent is the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Lakers flew to Minneapolis overnight, and the city was still the Lakers' nest.
If they weren’t in Minneapolis, they wouldn’t have a name like Lakers, which is poetic in English and unknown in Chinese.
Anyway, everyone is used to screaming and screaming. Think carefully, "Lake"? What the hell?
Are there still "Tang people", "River people" or "Sea people"?
The Lakers left Minneapolis early, and for many years only the Timberwolves entered the city.
It shows that the people in this city still love basketball very much, that is, the Timberwolves are far less contended than the Lakers.
In short, the history of the Timberwolves is a history of blood and tears, a history of brain remnants, a big collection of mistakes, and a selection of five embarrassing words.
Before Li Liang participated in the draft, he tried to train with the Timberwolves.
Later, because the Timberwolves became famous, the tunnel gave up the idea of ​​playing here.
Besides, Li Liang doesn't like the place where it is too cold, he needs sunshine.
After a day of rest in the hotel, the team conducted simple training.
Approaching the playoffs, the team's training intensity is slowly decreasing to reserve more physical reserves for the players.
Li Liang took the time to rest and adjust, and he temporarily released Maddie’s task.
It's already exhausting in the away game, if you do the task again, the game will lose.
Although the team's request is to keep the top three, Li Liang feels that if he can take the first place, why not?
In the playoffs, home advantage is still very important.
The Miami Heat is currently in a crazy streak. After defeating Orlando Magic on the 25th, they have won a 27-game winning streak.
I don't know if this terrible winning streak will continue.
They are currently six wins from the Lakers' 33-game winning streak, and they have successfully surpassed the Lakers in record.
With an advantage of winning the game, it ranked first in the league.
Of course, winning streak is a huge honor, but it is also a huge pressure.
When the streak numbers accumulate to a certain level, the world will want to beat you.
Any team you encounter will resist with all your strength and will target you in every way until you are defeated.
Therefore, the Heat's game pressure is actually quite huge.
In comparison, the Lakers are very relaxed.
And without Kobe being present, it would be even more relaxing!
At night, Li Liang entered the system and saw that [Cording's Box], he began to feel itchy again.
Relax, do you want to try again?
Li Liang didn't resist Keding's temptation and decided to re-enter the box to change his ability data.
Still into the box, the six-dimensional figure is still in front.
Li Liang thought about it, the defense and physical quality still can not move, this is the basis of the game.
Let's attack, I don't know what kind of master this time I will become?
...
On the evening of the 25th, at the Minneapolis target center, the Lakers started the second game of four consecutive guests.
After the opening ceremony, the two sides introduced the players.
Li Liang made his debut again, and tonight he looked confident and radiant!
Kobe is still sitting on the sidelines in a suit, but in fact his hands are itchy, and he really wants to play.
At present, his ankle is no longer painful and he can participate in team training normally.
If the team has a poor record, Kobe will definitely come back.
But now that the Lakers have this condition, Kobe can rest more, then rest more.
At the end of the appearance ceremony, Li Liang ran to the technical desk and got a little magnesium powder, and ran to Kobe to play with it.
Then dangling in front of Kobe, dangling away, it seemed that he wanted to pay special attention to Kobe.
Kobe looked at him like this, and his heart burned out of nowhere, especially wanting to give him one or one elbow.
"What‘sup! (What's the matter with you!)"
Kobe couldn't help but said he shot Li Liang up. Is this kid nervous today?
Li Liang laughed and said, "Kobe, take a good look at my performance today. You just stay off the field and don't have to play."
Kobe was confused. This kid was normal before.
What's going on tonight?
After the Timberwolves and Lakers game started, Bryant quickly knew the answer.
The Timberwolves' starters tonight are Pekovic, Derek Williams, Rubio, Andrei Kirilenko and Luke Ridno.
This lineup is also unique enough. Four of the five starters are white. It is really, very rare in the current black NBA.
Of the five white people, three are foreigners from three different countries.
On the Timberwolves' bench, there were also four major white rotations, including Chevy, Zeiss Budinger, JJ Barria and Greg Steensma.
If the NBA requires that each team can only send white players to play, the Timberwolves are estimated to be the strongest.
However, such a lineup, the biggest problem is naturally insufficient athletic ability.
The Lakers have normal athletic ability. The Timberwolves' athletic ability is no better than the Lakers.
In recent years, the Timberwolves have had a lot of high-level signings, but unfortunately they can always avoid the correct answer perfectly.
To be honest, if I were the Timberwolves' management, I would not do anything. I copied it on the forum according to the netizens' draft recommendations. It is estimated that it will not be so miserable.
For the Timberwolves, which are mostly white lineups, it is probably called "white ride".
And after the game started, the defender Li Liang's player was no one else, really the famous Russian AK-47, Kirilenko.
The once omnipotent monster, the block madman on the striker position, after playing in Russia for a season, returned to the Timberwolves this season and was signed by the Timberwolves.
It is not clear why the Timberwolves should sign Kirilenko, a past player who has fallen significantly and has returned to his hometown to play.
Probably because he is white.
Facing Kirilenko's defense, Li Liang was still quite satisfactory in the first few minutes of the first quarter, which was not much different from usual.
If there is any difference, it means that this kid no longer makes a three-pointer.
Needless to say, the ability value of the three-point vacancy was lost by him and changed to other projects.
Kobe stared at the situation on the court firmly. He wanted to see what medicine Li Liang sold in this gourd.
Both sides started the offense very smoothly. After all, the Timberwolves' coach is Adelman, and he has always been very good at adjusting the offense.
However, by the middle of the first quarter, the shooting rate of both sides began to decline.
The game was a little messy, and neither side scored very much.
Rubio was cleared by the Lakers from outside and then missed a three-pointer.
Howard scored a rebound in the backcourt and gave it to Nash to control the ball.
Li Liang usually picks up the screen from high position, but this time he covers the blocker's position deeper and reaches the bull's corner position.
When Nash returned the ball, Kirilenko's defense quickly came up.
Li Liang shook the ball in front of Kirilenko, and then suddenly forced a shot!
In the horns position, a strong shot from the face basket, shot, the ball also scored!
Kobe stayed on the bench.
Ok? Isn't this Lao Tzu's trick?
When playing the jazz, Kobe did not use this trick to score points on Kirilenko.
"Luck, it must be luck." Bryant thought, Li Liang could not learn this trick.
In order to practice this trick to perfection, Bryant spent almost 10 years of hard work and field experience accumulation.
Only then did he reach the point where he could relax freely, ignore the defense, and shoot his opponent directly.
Li Liang this...
Hey, the Lakers counterattacked, Li Liang counterattacked the left horn corner to catch the ball, facing the defense and shot again in the middle distance!
Enter again?
Kobe, wondering, how can he enter?
Illusion, luck, this kid has always been very lucky, and can often throw some fairy balls.
So it must be good luck. Where can he vote, how can he understand the essence of the middle distance of the horns?
In the second half of the first quarter, Li Liang asked for the ball directly at the top of the arc this time.
Nash hands the ball to Li Liang, who catches the ball sideways. He learns to protect the ball like Kobe.
His ball protection is really a bit like Kobe.
But he had no choice but to look at his form, because he didn't have an elbow.
After protecting the ball, Kirilenko came close to his body. With a little advantage in height, Li Liang shot directly against Kirilenko!
Li Liang's jumper is very fast because of the "Zero Shot" bonus.
He didn't use Kobe, McGrady and Ray Allen's segmented jump shots of strong physical players in the 1990s ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but a jump shot of the whole body.
This kind of shooting has a lower shooting point, but the shooting speed is faster and the range is longer.
Li Liang shot directly at the top of the arc and hit another two points!
Once the goal was scored, the Lakers led the Timberwolves by 6 points in the first quarter.
When the offensive status of both sides is average and the tactics can not be played, this face basket strong shot helps the team to open the situation.
Isn't that what Kobe did in the past?
Off the field, Bryant applauded Li Liang's wonderful goal and frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
He was thinking, should he think about it and come back early?
Or will he still have his tactical position after returning?
