Add One, I Don’t Know How To Fight

After the preseason started and the new rules began to be implemented, Stern found that the game was completely chaotic.

At first, he thought it might just be Li Ang who wouldn't be used to it.

But in fact, everyone was very uncomfortable playing.

A smooth game did not appear. Instead, the game was frequently interrupted due to too many fouls.

The most typical one is the first game of the preseason, when the Bulls faced the Hawks, and Carter and Yao Ming played together for the first time.

Originally the protagonist was a demigod and another demigod's national team teammate.

As a result, Taizi relied on his hard power to steal all the popularity.

In the first round, Yasuko was called for a foul.

He can be called the fastest foul man in Bulls history.

Artest looked at the referee in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Referee: "What are you worried about?"

"I asked you why!"

"I asked you what you are worried about!"

Yao Ming: "Oh, okay, okay, my head hurts! None of our primary school students would argue like this!"

Artest felt very innocent. I just touched him lightly. Is this a foul?

I remember when I was one-on-one with Pierce in the North Shore Garden, I took off his pants and exposed his skin, and I was not called for a foul.

Where is this?

However, the No Handcheck rule is just that. As long as your actions above the free throw line are slightly rough, the referee has the right to call you a foul.

Artest was very speechless. Well, it must be because after I won DPOY last season, the league was afraid that I would be too strong, so it introduced this rule to restrict me!

That must be it!

Great superstars usually force the league to change the rules.

I didn’t expect that my son, Taizi, would have such a glorious moment one day, hahahahaha!

Stern: Don’t criticize the league. They have one stone, but Artest has eight.

After that, Artest showed everyone what a fancy foul is.

Someone else dribbled over and Artest hit him forcefully, causing a foul.

Someone else dribbled over and Artest grabbed the jersey with his hands, which was a foul.

For a time, cheerful whistles continued on the court.

Artest was angry, he stamped his feet, he yelled, he spread his hands.

But it was useless. Artest found that his previous defensive methods were completely restricted.

This rule makes everyone in the league look like his ex-girlfriend. Because the caressing back then has actually crossed the line now.

The referee is equivalent to telling Artest: No matter how tempting it is, just look at it and don't take action.

Artest struggled and kept fouling.

So much so that I clocked out of get off work in the third quarter.

Don't get me wrong, clocking out in the third quarter was not because the Bulls beat the Eagles to blood, but because Artest committed six fouls in the third quarter!

Real geniuses usually graduate early.

How can you mortals understand this kind of loneliness?

Artest told everyone with his performance of killing six fouls in three quarters: I really can't handle this rule!

Although there was no Artest, the Bulls still beat the Hawks by 18 points thanks to the outstanding performance of Yao Ming and Carter.

Carter's arrival cured the Bulls' fear of insufficient firepower in the fourth quarter, allowing the Bulls to last longer.

In the fourth quarter, when Yao Ming was also running low on energy, Carter was able to take over the game immediately.

It perfectly fills the Bulls' biggest shortcoming.

Facts have proven that you can win with or without Tai.

After the game, Artest was no less popular than Carter and Yao Ming.

After all, DPOY was at a loss what to do under the new rules last season. This matter is still very topical.

Artest faced the camera and scratched his head: "I understand that my defense scares the league, but it's not like that!"

Stern:

It's none of your business if I change the rules!

Don't always take the initiative to join in, okay? How shameless!

However, Artest's inability to do anything in this game also made Stern look forward to Li Ang's defensive performance.

Because generally speaking, Li Ang's defensive style is similar to Artest's.

They all rely on hard fights and stalking.

If Leon could be restricted to this level, Stern felt that his version update was a success.

However, Li Ang didn't have much playing time at all in the preseason.

He averages about ten minutes per game.

Because there is so little playing time, it is completely unclear whether this new rule will have any impact on Li Ang.

It ended in just over ten minutes. What can you feel?

As a veteran coach, Master Tang knows very well that preseason games are actually useless.

Don't expect that the team can be run-in in a few preseason games. If you really want to run-in the team, you have to do it in the regular season before it can be effective.

What's more, the Suns actually have nothing to break into.

Except for the Martial Saint being replaced by Deep Insertion, the main lineup has not changed, and the tactical ideas have not changed either.

Everyone is already familiar with this system.

Therefore, Master Tang would rather let the main players rest more and just play for more than ten minutes a game to find their form.

Li Ang, who Stern wants to restrict the most, seems not to be affected at all so far.

But other people are crying and crying, thinking that this rule does not work!

Artest won't talk about it, he is the one who is most affected.

And many other players also found it difficult to defend.

Damn it, if you can't defend yourself, it's like walking down a trail without a helmet.

Sooner or later something will happen!

Stern never expected that so many outside players would complain.

This is obviously a rule that makes it easier for you to break through, so why are you complaining?

Many perimeter players: Breakthrough? I can't even defend well, so why am I interested in breaking through! If you can't even afford food, will you think about what car to pick up tomorrow?

Well, all players think about now is defense. The saying that offense wins and defense wins championships is indeed true in this era.

Therefore, players actually don't care whether it is convenient for them to break through. They care more about whether they can guard others.

In their view, guarding others is sometimes more important than scoring themselves.

We haven’t turned this corner yet.

The whole league is complaining, complaining that this defensive rule makes everyone unable to play.

Only Li Ang, as if he had nothing to do, clocked out after ten minutes every day.

Stern was speechless, Li Ang, why are you acting like a dead fish? If I punish you, at least respond to me!

You can't have no reaction at all!

What Stern didn't realize was that the Suns were not unresponsive.

However, the Suns' response was a positive one.

Even with their main players almost out of action, the Suns still had the league's third-highest offensive efficiency in the preseason, averaging three-digit points per game.

The scoring data of Stoudemire, Barbosa, singles Joe, and deep penetration are also very beautiful.

D'Antoni's seven-second offense, under the new rules, is like a fish finding water and Heer finding a bird.

Because Billups' defense of waiting directly at the midfield line to fight with the point guard was not allowed last season, the Suns' seven-second offense was basically unstoppable.

The Suns are also winning consecutive games. While many people are still struggling with how to defend under the new rules, the Suns are already studying how to attack under the new rules.

This is called a dimensionality reduction attack!

This is equivalent to thinking about how to kneel and lick the goddess.

But Yang Yang was already thinking about how to make the goddess kneel down and lick her.

It's just that because it's a preseason game, not many people care about the Suns' offense and record.

As for the defending champion, it is normal for them to lose in the preseason.

The sun has been getting stronger silently, but Stern and others didn't realize it.

In this way, the preseason ended with the voices of heroes and heroes from all walks of life crying out loud.

For this reason, Stern had to change his strategy, which is to start a trial period this season and not be too harsh on the HC rules.

The penalty scale is between the old rules and the new rules.

After everyone has adapted, we will fully implement it next season.

But even this is enough for the sun.

Because in the original history, the HC rules were not fully implemented until the 2005-06 season. Don't forget that in the 2005 Finals, the Pistons and Spurs had a defensive battle with a record low ratings.

If the HC rules were fully implemented in the first year, such a defensive battle would be impossible.

This is also the reason why the data explosion of various stars only started in the 2005-06 season.

But this does not mean that the new rules will have no impact on the 2004-05 season.

In the original history, Nash in 2005 had already become the MVP.

And without the No Handcheck rule, Ginobili would not have become famous in the 2005 Finals.

The reason why the Pistons can't guard Ginobili is because of the existence of the No Handcheck rule, which allows Ginobili to break through unfavorably and break the deadlock.

Without this rule, the Pistons in the original history might have won two consecutive championships.

Therefore, even if it is not fully implemented, this rule will still have an impact on the alliance, but the difference is whether it has a large impact or a small impact.

The Suns can still rely on this rule to create miracles on the offensive end!

The preseason is over and the regular season begins.

In the opening game of this year's regular season, Stern arranged for Li Ang and Kobe to fall in love and kill each other.

Although O'Neal traveled east, the grudge between the Lakers and Leon is still very strong.

Li Ang not only destroyed the Lakers' three consecutive championship dynasty, but also used a 4-0 to break up F4 last season, and used an anal fissure choke to directly beat Malone into retirement.

This hatred is very deep!

Although the Lakers' lineup has fallen apart, Kobe is still very confident about this season.

Now, the Lakers have the final say. I have to show that shark what I can do without him!

In the first game against the Suns, Kobe was naturally very satisfied.

What better way to start than beating the defending champion?

Kobe is not joking, he is really confident.

He feels that his new teammates are quite good.

Caron Butler, a tough defensive leader. When he was 15 years old, he had been to the detention center 15 times. Among all the friends at that time, Butler was the one who was most in need of food. He was supported by the country's iron rice bowl.

Kobe liked him mainly because he didn't say too many harsh words and was conscientious.

The most important thing is that he will not yell at you for the ball!

Odom, a left-handed magician who averaged nearly 20 points per game last season, can shoot and pass inside and outside.

The most important thing is that he is willing to share the ball with you!

How could Kobe not love such a teammate?

The Lakers’ lineup this season isn’t that bad~

Although the center position is a bit weak, Shaq suddenly turned into Chris Mihm.

But is this a problem? no problem!

If the center is useful, why have we lost in the past two years?

Kobe was very confident and felt that the Lakers and Suns could beat each other.

This battle is the battle where Kobe proves to the world that he can win the game even without Shaq!

Stern is also paying close attention to this opening game. After all, the ratings of the game where Leon and Kobe soared in the playoffs last season exploded.

Kobe VS Li Ang, just like showing off his legs, a perfect traffic code.

Now with the blessing of HC rules, Li Ang can no longer rely on defense to easily control Kobe.

Stern thought, this opening game will definitely become a bloody point battle.

The first game of the new season, give the fans a big one!

On the first day of the opening game, Kobe called Li Ang: "Lee, are you excited!? I tell you I am excited too! Tomorrow, I will not lose the game easily!"

Li Ang yawned into the phone: "Ah~ Well, I'm so excited that I can't even sleep. If there's nothing else, hang up. I want to sleep."

"You and I can't sleep, can't you?"

"You have to sleep even if you can't sleep. What can I do? You should also have a good rest. I wish you 30 shots per game in the new season, punch Jordan and kick a shark!"

After that, Li Ang hung up the phone.

Kobe scratched his head, that's not right!

Why isn't Li Ang excited?

Doesn't he look forward to tomorrow's confrontation?

Li Ang. He is no longer excited about me?

No!

Li Ang is not excited. There is only one possibility, and that is that he thinks the Lakers are not a strong opponent!

Thinking of this, Kobe gritted his teeth.

Damn, if the Sharks are gone, the Lakers won't be considered a strong opponent?

Li Ang, you look down on people!

It's not that Li Ang looks down on Kobe, but the key point is that if Li Ang remembers correctly, in the original 2004-05 season, the Lakers didn't even win 40 games.

Let alone the playoffs.

A team that can't even win 40 wins, forgive Li Ang to say it bluntly, is not considered a strong team at all.

Not only this season, but also in the following years, the Lakers are actually not a strong team. Either not making the playoffs or missing out in the first round.

It wasn't until Kobe found a nationwide airborne phone number for his Spanish sister-in-law that the Lakers took off again.

Therefore, it is normal for Li Ang to feel bored.

I want to play the Bulls, I want to play the Spurs, I want to play the Mavericks, I want to play the Heat, I want to play the Pistons!

Why don't you arrange a Laker for me? How boring!

As the only MVP in Olympic history, why do I get this treatment?

The other bosses all hugged the big guy and left, leaving Li Ang with a crooked melon and cracked jujube.

It's strange that Li Ang can be so excited.

Although Li Ang is not excited about tomorrow's game, there is one thing that Li Ang has been looking forward to for a long time.

That’s right, it’s that time of year again when you choose a copy!

Li Ang originally wanted to continue picking up Kobe's wool, but maybe the system also thought that Li Ang was too stupid and kept catching one person.

Therefore, after completing the copy of Kobe 2.0 last season, the system did not produce a copy of Kobe 3.0.

Instead, a 1.0 copy of the four shooting guards came out.

We can't let Li Ang continue to pluck it. If he continues to pluck it, Kobe's cauliflower heads will turn into braised eggs.

Li Ang also felt that it was very stupid. As far as the current price is concerned, the copy of Kobe Bryant is still very cost-effective.

The rewards are very generous.

As a result, I was not allowed to choose now, which was very uncomfortable.

The remaining few, such as Nash copies and Barkley copies, Li Ang is not interested in.

In desperation, it seems that the only option is this new copy of the four shooting guards.

Li Ang looked at the dungeon description. This was not a one-time task for the four shooting guards. Instead, after opening the dungeon, a copy of one of the four shooting guards would be randomly selected and given to Li Ang.

No matter who is drawn out, Li Ang must accept it.

In other words, once you open the copies of these four shooting guards, you can't go back on them.

Li Ang thought, there is nothing to regret.

Except for Carter's copy, which was duplicated, Li Ang found the copies of the other three people acceptable.

There's no way I'm going to get a copy of Carter, right?

Based on my character, Li Ang, this situation should not happen~

Moreover, this seems to be the only way to continue to produce copies of Kobe Bryant.

With a one-quarter probability, Li Ang thinks it's worth a gamble!

Therefore, Li Ang chose the 1.0 copy of the four shooting guards.

After the copy was opened, it glowed with white light as always.

Li Ang even wanted to study whether the special effects out of the box could be set. He was tired of seeing the white light for so many years.

After the white light passed, Li Ang saw a long list of names.

Tracy McGrady!

Li Ang drew a copy of Tracy McGrady!

As for Maizi, although his physical fitness and desire to win are a bit lacking, his feelings are a bit lacking everywhere.

But...still very strong!

Especially in terms of scoring ability, there is really nothing to say.

Again, even if you are brushing, you must have this ability to be able to brush.

It would be pretty good if you could get some badges from McGrady.

For example, the purple sleepy badge. The effect is to look at the opponent sleepily, drag the opponent down to the same level of sleepiness as yourself, and then use your rich experience to defeat the opponent.

Well, very practical!

This copy of Tracy McGrady should not correspond to a certain season, but to Tracy McGrady's entire peak period, and then extract some iconic events from it as mission goals.

Li Ang looked at the dungeon tasks curiously. When he saw the first task, he laughed unkindly.

Mission goal 1: Break through the first round of the playoffs!

Li Ang almost fainted from laughing. Damn it, is this also called a mission?

Isn’t this just a matter of having hands?

If this task were placed in an urban novel, it would be equivalent to: Mission goal - the protagonist cannot have only one female companion.

There is no need to deliberately implement this at all.

Tracy McGrady: Li Ang, you keep scolding me!

Li Ang was also convinced, but this task was indeed very unique to McGrady.

This copy has enough fidelity!

In this way, the dungeon task is equivalent to giving away one directly, and Li Ang only needs to complete the other three.

So, Li Ang continued to look down.

But when he saw the second mission, Li Ang stopped laughing.

Mission Objective 2: A single 60-point battle.

Well, McGrady's 62 points in a single game last season became a mission goal.

Sure enough, Li Ang was happy too early.

62 points in a single game, I have to say it is quite difficult.

After all, Li Ang's current career highest score is only 52 points in a single game.

At this point, Li Ang felt that he had used his greatest strength.

It is indeed not easy to get at least 8 more points on this basis.

Moreover, the Suns' lineup is excellent, and Li Ang does not need to score points alone.

Under such circumstances, it is even more difficult to score 60 points in a single game.

McGrady can score 62 points in a single game. To put it bluntly, no one can score except him, he can only score by himself.

But the Suns are different. With so many teammates, it’s impossible for them to all suddenly shut down in a certain game, right?

This task is very challenging.

Finally, as always, two question mark tasks remain.

It is up to Li Ang to guess what these two tasks are.

What other iconic performances did McGrady have at his peak? The first thing Li Ang thought of was 35 seconds and 13 minutes!

Li Ang swallowed, this was even more outrageous than 60 points in a single game.

35 seconds and 13 minutes, even if you ask McGrady to do it again, he may not be able to copy it.

This thing is the product of the extreme combination of strength and luck.

Li Ang's head is getting bigger, so it seems that Tracy McGrady's copy is no longer good in an instant.

Because at present, only one task of breaking through the first round of the playoffs is stable, and the other tasks are too difficult.

But if you only complete one first-round playoff mission, the dungeon completion rate will not even be 50%.

According to the system rules, if the copy is less than 50% completed, there will be no reward.

This season's work has been in vain.

It's better to choose a copy of Nash. Passing badges are better than no badges at all.

As long as there are some things, no matter whether they are good or bad, long or short, it is better than not having them at all.

Li Ang felt helpless. He felt that this year's dungeon was the most challenging dungeon he had ever picked in his career.

Li Ang closed the system interface in disappointment, lay on the bed, and sighed.

Forget it, even if the dungeon mission cannot be completed, there is no penalty.

Don't think so much first, tomorrow, first beat the Lakers into obscurity!

Lakers legend Farke Liang is about to start a new round of performances.

Today’s 10,000-word update is here. It’s the Nth day of continuous 10,000-word update. I’m asking for votes online!
