Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

At the post-game press conference, the Jazz were as happy as ever.

This is the fourth game of their playoff journey, and they are undefeated, even the Rockets, who are second in the Western Conference regular season. In fact...if Li Shengli hadn't joined halfway, but had started playing from the beginning of the season, Jerry- Sloan feels that there is not much suspense about being No. 1 in the Western Conference.

Jazz is happy, Rockets are worried.

Although the second round was advanced with 4 wins in 7 games, and although this was only the first game, the problems exposed in this game were too big, because... the all-conquering Rockets super giant Olajuwon temporarily stalled.

It's terrible!

This is too fatal for the Rockets, and this game also allowed everyone to see a rising super center, rookie Li Shengli, and restricted area Li Order.

How to position Li Shengli now?

It is still too early to say that he is a super center with comprehensive abilities. Although he has no solution for protecting the rim, he is still a little behind in the comprehensiveness of his offensive methods.

But the horror is here.

A person's strength is not scary. What is really scary is... there is still room for improvement beyond strength, and everyone can see Li Shengli's terrifying and astonishing progress.

…

Amid the praise in the post-game interview, the Jazz clocked out.

Because the home and away arrangement in the second round is 2-2-1-1-1, and the first two home games are played by the Rockets, Li Shengli and others do not have to travel back and forth, and prepare to return to the hotel to rest.

The three of Limas walked side by side at the front, and Crotty was carrying Li Shengli's bag behind him. Even if he was named the starter, he still acted as Li Shengli's follower without any complaints.

"Li, are you going out for a drink later?" Ma Long's face was full of smiles.

"Yeah, go out and relax." Stockton echoed.

After fighting all the way, the two of them felt more relaxed than ever before. Although they worked hard in every game, compared with before, Li Shengli shared too much pressure.

From the first round until now, not only Jerry Sloan is happy, but also Stockton and Malone. After all, no one will dislike their teammates for being too strong!

As for stealing the limelight?

In the past, Utah's two evil players were old-fashioned and prudent, full of honors, and the only thing missing was the championship. Now the Jazz's three giants have swept the playoffs, and Li Shengli's performance is also worthy of the limelight. Ma and Si have no complaints at all.

"What, don't you need to train tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, we won't play the second game until the 12th. We can take a break tomorrow!" Stockton explained.

"That's right, why are you so anxious!" Ma Long also rolled his eyes, "You are now our super center, and the coach wants to praise you to the sky! But you are better... a super center, let's put you on the weak team, as long as If you say you don't train, believe it or not, the coach won't say a word about you!"

"Shut up, don't you fucking teach me something better!" Stockton laughed and cursed.

"Did I make a mistake? Obviously not. Training should be done at the right time and in the right amount. It's not good to be stretched all the time. There's nothing wrong with relaxing!"

Li Shengli smiled and said, "Not today. I have friends coming over today. Let's drink it when we return to Salt Lake City in a few days!"

"Whatever you want, John and I are going anyway. By the way, Crotty, are you coming?" Malone waved his hand as if it didn't matter, and asked Crotty, "Let's come together, don't always follow this little Li. Asshole’s backside.”

Drinking with Stockton and Malone?

Crotty didn't even dare to think about it in the first half of this season, but now the two bosses have taken the initiative to invite him. This is something he has never thought of.

"Wait a minute, I have to send my luggage back to the hotel!" Crotty glanced at Li Shengli.

"Shit, let him take it by himself! Boy, you are the starter for our Jazz now. Just leave this kind of thing to others." Malone cursed, and by chance, Jane Freiheis walked away. Come here, "Fhenris, take all these bags back."

Damn it?

Bullying?

Ferhenris was caught and cursed in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Okay, boss. I have nothing to do tonight. If you need anything, I will be here."

"Okay, thank you!" Stockton said politely, and he and Malone took Crotty to take the first step, while Li Shengli hung behind, and Ferhenris hadn't moved yet.

"Boss Li, is there anything you need me to do?"

Boss Li?

Li Shengli was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would also become the boss?

In fact, I don’t blame Verhenris for flattering him. The NBA is such a big place. Everyone knows Li Shengli’s potential. Even if he doesn’t play with the Jazz anymore, being able to talk to a future notice-level superstar like Li Shengli is his bragging rights. ?

The icing on the cake is nothing, providing help in times of need is the key.

Ferhenris knew it very well. He felt that Crotty's rise to the top was due to this hand. Although Li Shengli was not in the snow, after all, he was just starting his career. He licked it. After all, many people wanted to lick it and still licked it. Not yet.

"Ahem...it's nothing, you go back first!"

"Okay, boss, call me if you need anything. I'll be here when you call!" The licking was endless, and Ferhenris did not forget to wave to him until the end.

…

At a McDonald's not far from the hotel, Li Shengli was sitting calmly, while Curry and Burgess across from him looked livid.

"Fuck, are you just going to treat us to this?"

"Asshole, you are too stingy. What did you do with your salary? We are going to a nightclub!"

Boggs was so angry that he wanted to eat chicken. Curry, the chicken-eating captain, also expressed his desire to eat chicken, but Li Shengli clapped his hands together and ordered several portions of fried chicken. He had all kinds of chicken he wanted, which was healthy and environmentally friendly.

As for what nightclub?

Who the hell says McDonald's isn't a nightclub?

Li Shengli believed that... a store open at night was a nightclub, and no one could argue with it. After chatting for a while, it finally came to the playoffs.

The regular season awards and the highlight of the MVP have not been announced, but as expected... there is no such thing as Li Shengli. The only promising Rookie of the Year has been put aside, which makes him feel very unhappy, and he has never had any This time, I can demand higher performance from myself than I do now.

"Why are you asking about the playoff block list?"

"You don't want to kill Bang, do you?"

Curry and Boggs looked at Li Shengli in surprise, with shock in their hearts.

You know, some records in the playoffs are usually separated from the regular season. After all, the intensity of the playoffs is much greater than that of the regular season, and Li Shengli only played four games and ranked first two in rebounds in a single game in the playoffs. Now that I'm asking about the shot-blocking list, I naturally have this in mind.

Not giving it to Rookie of the Year?

Okay, then let’s kill the rankings and clean up all the records in the playoffs!

The scoring list in the playoffs has to be competed with people in all positions, and Jordan's 63 points, which tops the list, are still too difficult. As for the five major positive statistics, the only thing that centers can compete for is the block list.

Olajuwon tops the list of blocks, 10!

Olajuwon again?

Li Shengli doesn't know why this is happening. It seems that he is destined to fight Olajuwon to the death, and the remaining centers such as Robinson and Ewing are on the list and are playing in the melee of the gods.

However, blocking shots is different from rebounding. Rebounders are more independent, but blocking shots is not. It depends on your own strength and a little bit of luck.

After all, if the opponent doesn't cooperate and rush inside, there's nothing anyone can do.

However, Li Shengli has set a small goal for himself, first to kill the top three players in rebounds, and also in blocks. Anyway, this is not a score. Every rebound and block is a boost to the team. There is no such thing as forcing statistics.
