Chapter 328: : [Stars and Half-Step Giants]


"I think you are already a star."
On the way back to the locker room, Stephen Marbury suddenly and seriously said to Li Zhen: "You have all the characteristics of being a star player. I am not referring to your influence outside the court, but the solid strength. "
Li Zhen did not respond for a while.
"The moment you just broke through Caron Butler has put you in the realm of star players. You have the ability to get rid of the system and do something. You can easily tear off the defense of most defenders." Stephen Ma Brie continued: "Although your level of confrontation is still low, your amazing passing talent makes a good make up. You are probably the best player on the team now."
Marbury spread his palms and said: "If Kobe, Duncan, Garnett guys have a 99-point impact, then you now have a level of 82 points."
"What you lack is the control at the critical moment. After you get rid of all the systems, you can conquer the absolute strength of the other system with your own strength."
"In general, you haven't played hard enough. But if you are in a strong team, you will definitely be the best sixth man with high efficiency."
Marbury today rarely talked about the gentleman's way.
But what he said gave Li Zhen a clear understanding of his current strength. After all, Stephen Marbury has played in the league for so many years.
"Your next effort should be to become an iconic figure in New York basketball. It's like people mentioning the New Jersey Nets, they think of Jason Kidd. When they mention the Los Angeles Lakers, they think of Kobe Bryant. When they mention the San Antonio Spurs, they think of Tim Duncan ... "
"When you become a team's totem in the basketball world, all fans (not just the home team) will think of you when they think of that team. You will officially enter the battlefield of the superstar."
Marbury continued: "I've never done this."
He looked very sorry.
Although he was the boss in Phoenix, New Jersey, and even New York, he did not brand his image on any team.
Li Zhen nodded thoughtfully.
Today's alliance is indeed an era of separatism. Countless superstars are scattered in various teams. They lead their teams in the battle of the gods, and strive to achieve the team's honor and personal honor.
"Actually ... Arenas is almost going to become the Wizards' totem. If he can stick to his current personal performance and bring the team to the playoffs for the next three years."
Stephen Marbury continued: "His personal ability has at least reached the level of 92 points, which is better than me at the peak."
If it was Marbury who claimed to be the world's first point guard, he would never say that, but now ... he is a modest gentleman.
"Ok."
Li Zhen nodded slightly.
He agrees with Marbury's judgment that Arenas is indeed the fastest star in the past three years, or the spirit of being a half-step superstar.
but….
"We will win this game." Li Zhen told Marbury with confidence.
This surprised Marbury. He originally wanted to say to Li Zhen that Arenas couldn't always behave like this. This guy is a big-mouthed and arrogant man. But his growth is extremely inspirational. He is the kind of training maniac who can sleep in the arena. He will definitely find his accuracy in the second half. Crawford, who played the brave in the first half, may have a downturn. His loose joint scientific shooting method is very unscientific. Marbury hopes that Li Zhen will be mentally prepared. After all, losing to Arenas is not a shame.
He was also going to say something that Li Zhen had already done very well.
But now, after Li Zhen has paved for so long, he clearly told himself: The Knicks will win.
The reason?
Li Zhen smiled at Ma Junzi slightly.
Full of confidence.
As Marbury said, Li Zhen has now reached the star level. In particular, his increased speed to 95 points and explosive power of 95 points gave him some breakthroughs that were difficult to defend.
More importantly, as long as Karon Butler continues his irrational behavior tonight, his strength will continue to increase.
So, what do you panic about?
Tonight Li Zhen will also have a double harvest of personal strength and team victory.
...
In the dressing room, Li Zhen chatted with Eddy Curry for a while, Chinese street foods "roasted yam" and "baked sweet potatoes", and then the second half soon arrived in Eddy Curry's saliva that was difficult to restrain.
Eddy Curry got the chance to start, along with Li Zhen, Crawford, Jeffries, David Lee.
Isaiah Thomas wanted to play a point of attack, using inside and outside to match, let Eddy Curry hold the ball singles in the penalty area, sharing some of Li Zhen's tasks.
However, this arrangement has the opposite effect.
As Stephen Marbury was worried, Crawford's unscientific rhythm was dragged down.
When he first came on the court, he could catch Li Zhen's pass at a fast pace and hit a difficult jumper.
But as the offensive rhythm became slower and slower, Crawford made two consecutive points.
This made Caron Butler, who was switched to Crawford again, quite proud.
But in fact ... the loss of 2 points of physical fitness and 2 points of speed still makes him unable to deal with defensively.
Crawford couldn't make it. It has nothing to do with him.
But Butler thought that this was his credit, so he began to feel that he had done it again, and began to slap his chest again.
It's pretty bluffing.
However, there was little response from fans at the scene.
In the first half, his shameful eyes were not completely forgotten.
Butler is now ugly in front of all American fans. He was covered by his last career with the ball that Li Zhen finally did.
"Why don't you come guard against me?"
Li Zhen always asked him this way.
This makes Butler quite uncomfortable.
And Arenas stared at Li Zhen with eyes wide open, an angry expression of "I am not enough to defend you".
And then strengthened the control of Li Zhen.
But Li Zhen didn't struggle with him at first, and he didn't even speed up to beat him. He first passed the ball to Crawford, and after finding out that Crawford's feel had cooled, he gave the basketball to Eddie Curry.
Let Eddy Curry look for the inside.
What does Eddy Curry feel like?
The efficiency is not high, quite satisfactory.
If you rely on him, the difference in scores will definitely increase.
So, when Isaiah Thomas replaced Crawford who missed three consecutive shots, and finally got a Butler cap, he replaced Stephen Marbury.
Li Zhen started to act.
He first took Marbury's pass and stood on the top of the arc to stand a fierce and fast assault. When Arenas had not yet responded, he suddenly went ... This made the general very shocked and unexpected. He remembered that Li Zhen hadn't been so fast when he was an All-Star ... when a gust of wind drove violently from his ears.
And when he turned around.
The low-altitude artist has outlined a beautiful arc in the penalty area.
Heywood's desperate sealing became the most freehand part of this ink painting, uh!
The basketball was thrown from behind Heywood's head and then fell gently into the hoop.
It was like a goose feather and heavy snow drifting on the burning red stove, without a trace.
Li Zhen looked back, he raised an eyebrow for Arenas and told him: "Kobe said your defense is weaker than the French club. It seems that he is right."
This statement annoys Arenas.
But in fact, Li Zhen has been very restrained. Because Kobe's original saying is that Arenas is a defensive force on the defensive end. Two fingers can crush him.
In contrast, low-altitude artists have been very euphemistically decorated.
After thinking that he had suffered a great deal of shame, Arenas returned to the halftime, he finally suppressed his depression.
As Marbury said, Arenas are not brainless. He is a half-step superstar, and he can't keep his head hot.
So, when he saw Kalon Butler open, he immediately passed the basketball.
Caron Butler received the basketball.
He turned around suddenly, and he even said to Anne Hathaway: Bi Chi, shut up! !
It turned out that just now, Anne Hathaway shouted Bruce cheering loudly there, and also chattered to emphasize what happened before Butler was easily shaken by Li Zhen.
This made him angry and angry.
And the consequence of his anger and anger is that he finally got out of the seat and was locked again by Jeffris because he turned his back to talk.
Generally speaking, he should pass the ball.
But he didn't do it.
He turned around, slammed down, and then quickly took steps to break through.
However, the accident happened when he exerted the maximum strength of his body.
He no longer knows that he has lost 2 points of fitness and 2 points of speed.
His brain thinking still gave instructions according to the previous state, so this caused an imbalance in the body. His swiftly stepped left foot twisted on the first hit, and then he fell to the ground.
The head referee is confused.
However, Jeffries quickly grabbed the basketball with a clear hand, and then passed the long pass to Li Zhen who was already playing.
Li Zhen received the basketball and ran all the way.
Arenas chased after him.
He can't wait to give Li Zhen a cover.
But ... he soon repeats the destiny of Caron Butler.
When Li Zhen rushed into the penalty area, he suddenly stabilized his rhythm while traveling and then made a layup. At that time, Arenas leapt.
By this time, Li Zhen had passed the ball back to David Lee who quickly followed up.
David Lee is a pure boy.
Although he won the McDonald's dunk contest.
But at this time, he still chose a layup.
Even if it was a layup, he still knocked away Arenas, who had just landed, staggering, and almost did not fall out of the court, if he did not hold the basket.
"Why do you guys in Washington always take this part?" Li Zhen asked Arenas curiously: "Do you want to block me like this?"
When Li Zhen's soft voice came, Arenaston, who was very angry, was even more angry.
He stared fiercely at Li Zhen.
Li Zhen has been humiliated twice in a row, he has been out of anger.
"You wait for me !!!" Arenas put down the cruel words.
The former referee has suspended the game, he let the Wizards' team doctor play Butler.
Arenas also hurried over.
