100% God Guard

Just as Thomas had a trade headache, the New York Knicks welcomed the Chicago Bulls at home on January 2, 2004. The peak history of the Red Bulls needs no more introduction, but after the old gangsters retired, the dynasty disintegrated, the championship lineup was completely dismantled and quickly sunk. In the new season’s draft, they selected a white point guard Kirk Hinrich with the 7th pick.

The 193cm Hinrich, in the 03 class, is a relatively low-key player, averaging 12.1 points, 3.4 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game in the first thirty games of the new season. The offensive scoring ability is not outstanding, and the play is not stable, and the two-point shooting rate is only a measly 38%.

He is not capable enough to prove that he can be the core of the team, let alone a cornerstone player. So far this season, the Chicago Bulls are 9-22, only 13th in the East, only two or three more wins than the hopelessly rotten Washington Wizards and the newly injured core Magic.

In the same 03rd class, he gradually proved unable to become a team to rely on, compared with him, Lu Li quickly established himself in the Knicks, and played well and efficiently, and the whole team helped Lu Li up and down is a tacit thing.

Both are low-key, with a high pick being selected by the Bulls, a traditional point guard style of play; Another league that has not participated in the draft and is only on a short-term contract is also a traditional way of playing, regardless of other shooting guards.

Tonight’s matchup, the media can’t find their common ground to do articles, there is no spark between them to stir up, therefore, the national live broadcast is not, even the domestic live broadcast can only go over the wall to the 91 live broadcast network on the network to watch.

However, before the game, no one expected that a 2000 rookie, a skinny monkey named Crawford, suddenly broke out and competed madly with Lu Li. He was also accurate on three points, hitting three on Lu Li’s head in the first half. At the same time, the breakthrough is sharp, the mid-range shot is sudden, and it is not easy to defend. Lu Li’s defense was already scumbag, and he scored 18 points in the first half.

It’s a pity that Crawford can’t be happy, because Lu Li is more terrifying, three points are more accurate than him, and it is not the accuracy of convulsions, it is very stable accuracy. In the first half, he was bombarded by Lu Li for 25 points, and on the three-pointers alone, he was shot into a sieve, giving the latter seven three-pointers.

In terms of defense, who is worse than whom?

In the second half, the two sides continued to fight, compared to the wonderful match in the first half, Crawford’s condition was affected by his physical fitness, and his shooting percentage dropped sharply, relying only on 4-of-10 two-pointers and 1-of-4 three-pointers, scoring 11 points.

Riku continued to fire and hit him specifically, scoring 21 points in the third quarter alone, hitting five three-pointers.

The fourth quarter directly became garbage time, the Bulls’ sparse defense on the outside was bloody tonight, Lu Li shot 12 of 19 three-pointers in the third quarter, broke through twice, shot 2 of 4 from mid-range, made 2 of 6 free throws, and cut 46 points again, as well as 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.

With the support of Luli’s super firepower, the New York Knicks defeated the Bulls with an absolute advantage of 102-123 and 21 points, winning eight straight games.

On January 4, two days later, the New York Knicks continued to host their nearby brother team, the New Jersey Nets.

The Nets’ three stars, superstar point guard Jason Kidd, violent forward Kenyon Martin, and low-key star Richard Jefferson, hit the home team’s basketball as soon as the opening game, Martin’s various flying sky dunks were staged from time to time at Madison Square Garden Arena.

However, tonight, except for Martin, the other two could not find the front sight at all. Jefferson shot just 6 of 17 from the field, and the All-Star forward fell out of line in this game. Kidd is a point guard who is more of a point guard who passes more than he scores, and who is also good at projection. In this game, he actually made 27 shots, hit 11 goals, and scored a team-high 35 points. His three-point shot was so ironic that he shot only 1 of 9, which was miserable.

But his spicy and experienced defense made Riku suffer for the first time, playing one of the least efficient games since entering the league. In normal matches, Riku was watched by Kidd throughout the game, whose defensive anticipation and standing limited his speed and shot timing to the extreme.

Kidd is like gambling that Lu Li will not pass the ball, will not assist with his teammates, and only close to the defense and breakthrough. Moreover, frequently defensive intensity, physical confrontation, put on a posture that does not exhaust physical energy, and stalks to the death.

Throughout the game, Riku constantly used retreats and quick counterattacks to score. In terms of breakthrough, Kidd’s small movements are constant, and extremely hidden. What’s more, Lu Li finally passed Kidd, and Jefferson immediately made up for it, continued to give him physical strength and enjoyed it. The first time I encountered such a shameless defensive Lu Li, the success rate was not high.

Especially in the third quarter, the opponent’s key chasing time, frequent rushing fouls, playing the shark cutting tactic, greatly disrupted the offensive rhythm of the Knicks and Luli himself.

13-of-29 shooting, 7-of-17 three-pointers and 5-of-16 free throws.

38 points, 9 rebounds and 3 steals.

That’s all Lu Li’s stats tonight, it still looks like superstar stats, but in terms of efficiency, the ratio of shots to shots has set a new career low. To that end, the Nets taught Riku a lesson with an extremely difficult outside defense that was completely different from the last Bulls.

In the end, the Knicks only relied on Van Horn’s life-saving three points in key moments to narrowly beat their opponents and stabilize their winning streak.

After the game, Lu Li was interviewed, and he could only smile bitterly in the face of the reporter’s miserable performance in tonight’s game. The Nets reached the Finals in the 01/02 and 02/03 seasons in a row, and they are championship teams in themselves, and their strength cannot be ignored. But Lu Li, who has been playing frequently highlighted, was still careless, did not add points to his free throw ability, just thought of continuing to accumulate hundreds of attribute points and then add them to the full value one by one.

At the same time, there are passes, scum-like passes, which make him have to specialize in a guard who only cuts points, unable to make effective contact with his teammates on the offensive end. This is his biggest weakness, it’s just that no one has laid out defensive tactics for this before.

This is probably because some team strength itself is not good, and they have long thought about putting it out. Some teams may still be studying Riku, or are not willing to pull down their faces and play chopping sharks.

If you encounter a team like the Spurs, Riku will definitely add full value to the free throws before the game.

Fortunately, the others stood up to save the streak, and if not, Lu Li would have felt guilty for a long time.

(Recently, the state is very confused, and some brothers are right, I set such a low quality, the upgrade is still too fast, and it is more and more difficult to write.) ）
