Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

Ever since he was beaten by the Hornets in the last away game, Thomas has been thinking about Li Shengli, and today's game, he is more excited than before. He doesn't know why, but he always inexplicably hates these rookies who have shown strong talents when they first joined the NBA. This was the case with Michael Jordan, and it is also the case with Li Shengli today.

In the confrontation with his arch-rival Jordan, even if he didn't want to admit it, the fact was that he lost. Whether it was blocking the Bulls from winning the championship or isolating Jordan in the All-Star Game, he was severely slapped in the face by Jordan afterwards. And now...another rookie is coming Rising before his eyes, he will never tolerate history repeating itself.

"Li, I've finally waited for you. Welcome to the Palace of Mount Auburn! I hope you can go back to bed tonight..." Thomas said with a smile on his face and a knife hidden in his words as he shook hands with Li Shengli.

"Really? Let's see who lies down first! But I think you should retire, and I'll give you a ride tonight!" Of course, Li Shengli couldn't take any advantage of other people's comments, so he responded immediately, and Thomas's face His smile froze instantly.

"We'll see!" After saying that, Thomas stepped forward.

Laimbeer is the second one. Compared with the last time they met, the sinister look on his face is still the same, and his eyes are fierce. As the biggest villain in the NBA, he can't even count the players he has offended, but last time However, he was directly beaten by Li Shengli and suspended for more than ten games. This is definitely his biggest stain as a master of fighting basketball.

"Boy, you are dead tonight!" Ranbir's resentment was clearly visible on his face.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense. I'll be on the court later. If you have the guts, give it a try!" Li Shengli waved his hand. It was too low-level to say harsh words before the game. The court was where he taught Laimbeer a lesson.

Next, the Pistons' Dennis Rodman, Mark Aguirre, Joe Dumars and a group of substitutes came forward to shake hands one by one. These people did not say anything, and the opening ceremony ended in peace. .

…

"F￥ck # % @, this guy is too arrogant!" Thomas' unhappiness accumulated to the extreme.

"I can't help it anymore, this kid...I must, must give him some color!" Taking into account the old enmity, Ranbir was even more angry than Thomas, "You want to stand up for Kendall Gill? Bastard, then I’m going to send him to keep company with this loser Jill.”

"Lambir, when you come on the court, you can do whatever you want, and Rodman, go help Lambir... To be honest, I really hope to see the Hornets' team doctor come on stage!"

Although tactical arrangements are the responsibility of the head coach, as the team leader, Thomas' actual command on the front line is also particularly important. On the one hand, he implements the head coach's tactics, and on the other hand, he links his teammates.

"No problem, smash the wasp!"

“Send these bugs home!”

"Get ready, the game is about to begin."

…

A few minutes later, the gong started.

The midfield was still a confrontation between Li Shengli and Ranbir, but what surprised Li Shengli was... Ranbir actually wore a transparent mask?

You must know that generally wearing a mask is either because the nose bone or other parts of the face are injured, or it is for the purpose of protecting the face, and Ranbir is obviously the latter.

In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that Ranbir really has no choice...

Thinking of Li Shengli's last punch, he was still frightened. If he hadn't tilted his head to avoid it, who knows if he would have been beaten to death on the spot? And this collision had already set the tone before the game, so wearing a mask is always necessary.

…

There was no suspense about the jump ball. Even though Laimbeer took off first, Li Shengli still easily touched the ball that reached the highest point and accurately moved the ball to Boggs.

first round.

The Pistons started their defensive performance, pressing the Hornets players like shadows. Laimbeer went around crazily, treating Li Shengli like a steel pipe and spinning it. Although it was useless, his dirty tricks were always It can only be used when there is physical contact.

"Lee, go on." Boggs himself is a speed player. He changed direction and passed Thomas who was guarding him, and successfully broke into the inside. However, facing the opponent who came to defend him, he did not choose to take action and gave the ball to the crowd. Li Shengli of Kai Lanbier.

The Pistons' defense was absolutely full, without any communication, but everyone knew their responsibilities. Seeing Li Shengli holding the ball, Rodman immediately rushed to the basket to form a two-on-one defense. As for Johnson, who missed the defense, Aguirre made up the defense and started running on the outside, blocking the passing route.

At this moment, Li Shengli didn't have many choices. It was easy to make mistakes when passing the ball, so he could only choose to hit hard. After turning his back, he instantly mobilized his whole body's strength, and Laimbeer stepped back continuously, with a livid face.

However... Rodman's defense was in place and interfered with Li Shengli's little hook shot at the basket. The shot did not hit, and the rebound was taken away by Rodman again and was thrown to Thomas who was waiting outside for a start. Scored a fast break.

After scoring, Thomas raised his hands high, and the Pistons fans at home cheered.

…

Next game.

Li Shengli's offense was severely suppressed. First of all, the pass was blocked. Unless Boggs made a strong breakthrough and delivered the ball, he would have no chance to catch the pass at the basket.

Although he can ask for the ball from a high position, as long as he holds the ball, Laimbeer and Rodman will inevitably double-team, trying to hit the basket from the high position. This distance is enough for Rodman to react.

Speaking of which, Laimbeer, a seven-foot white center, is really not good in terms of physical fitness, but Rodman, the defensive power forward who came from the same team, is a tough guy. Together with Laimbeer, he has an outstanding effect in suppressing Li Shengli's firepower, and Johnson is also The second target to focus on, as soon as the opposing Rodman was pulled inside to help defend, Aguirre's supplementary defense was in place instantly.

After several failed mid-range shots, Li Shengli was contained on the offensive end.

Even if he got the ball, he had to rotate the pass to the outside again. Rodman immediately withdrew as soon as he saw Li Shengli's pass, forming a one-on-one man-to-man defense again, which put the Hornets' offense into an endless loop.

As for defense...

Except for Joe Dumars, who is stable on the outside, everyone else in the Pistons is desperately attacking the inside, either attacking and scoring, or making free throws. As for offensive fouls and offensive misses, they are not within the scope of their consideration at all. Although Li Shengli's two big shots only resulted in one foul, this offensive continued because consuming Li Shengli's physical energy was also one of their purposes.

…

Until the end of the first quarter, the pace of both sides was not fast, and the score was 25:18.

The Hornets were 7 points behind. Not only was Li Shengli being suppressed on the inside, but he still had no touch on the outside. It was a bad start, and everyone could see... The Pistons were really staring at Li Shengli in this quarter.

Thomas led the team to launch an inside charge one after another. Laimbeer led Rodman to double-team Li Shengli in the inside. Dirty moves continued in the defense, but Li Shengli really... encountered a difficult game and felt the pressure from the Pistons. The bad intentions of the team.
