Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

It's dawn the next day.

Looking at Li Shengli who was staring straight at her, Julie felt that she had been deceived. She felt so ashamed and angry that she rushed out of the door. However, Li Shengli, who had taken advantage of her... did not stop him. After all, he had to give people some psychological buffer time. .

As for Julie running out?

Where else can I run, why should I be ashamed?

After breaking the window paper, Li Shengli had to admit it. He got up and got dressed. The rest could only be discussed later. Since there was a game tomorrow, the team was scheduled to return to Salt Lake City this morning, and he had to rush back. Report, put this unexpected incident aside for now.

…

Jones said early in the morning that the hotel he booked was not far from the hotel where the Jazz players stayed, so Li Shengli walked back, which only took about seven or eight minutes. But the embarrassing thing was...the team bus had already arrived at the door of the hotel. , a group of teammates who were boarding the bus saw Li Shengli appear. Although they were confused, no one asked. On the contrary, Ma Long was holding back a bad smile.

Jazz anti-pornography team can't stay up all night.

Last night, a few perverts felt sleepy as soon as they sat down. After holding on for a while, they couldn't bear it anymore. However, they couldn't see the shadow of Li Shengli for a long time. They thought... Li Shengli was up there, but they were like squatting here. It makes absolutely no sense for a celebrity tabloid reporter.

In the end, Ma Long led the team to retreat, but this operation was not fruitless. At least it caught irrefutable evidence that Li Shengli and Julie were having an affair, which could deal a blow to Li Shengli, who had previously refused to admit it.

"Young man!" In private, Ma Long was nothing but a bastard who didn't like to wash his feet. He mocked Li Shengli to his heart's content, and Li Shengli turned to look at Crotty, probably knowing that he had been 'betrayed' .

"Go, go, wait until you go back to pay the fine and be suspended!" Taking the bag that Crotty carried for him, Li Shengli got on the bus first, while Ma Long shrugged and cursed before getting on the bus, and sat down with Li Shengli.

"Li, to be honest, the next game will be difficult!" After the joke, Ma Long said to Li Shengli seriously: "Look at the coach, he probably didn't sleep all night last night."

"It's not a big deal. As long as John's injury is not a big problem, I'll take care of it first. And it's unrealistic for us to keep winning, but it's easy to guarantee a playoff spot." Stockton's injury is still a concern for everyone. The focus of attention, Li Shengli is naturally worried.

"That's not to say. Ranking high in the regular season will make it easier for us to compete in the playoffs, so we have to fight for what we can. As for the next few games...the coach doesn't have many helpers for you. , everything can only depend on yourself, hold on, hold on until I have a rematch with everyone, maybe John will come a little later." Malone whispered.

Throughout Malone's career, he has never been injured in the previous eight seasons. He only missed 3 games in more than 650 games. This attendance rate is quite terrible. As for the 3 games he missed... he was not injured. It's a suspension for someone else's elbow injury.

Here I still have to mention Thomas of the Pistons.

When Li Shengli defeated Laimbeer, it ranked as one of the major serious injuries in NBA history, and Malone's elbow to Thomas ranked among the top ten serious injuries, ranking behind Tomjanovich's brain.

The NBA in the 1990s was a bloody era.

Compared to gorgeous statistics, reporters and fans prefer to see the hard-core performance of some violent players, so... players with a certain level of strength may not necessarily be famous, but players who can play will definitely attract attention.

Mad Crotty is an example.

With his data, he cannot make waves in the NBA wave, but several iron-blooded performances have conquered Salt Lake City fans, because everyone can accept a player who does not have many exciting performances, but cannot tolerate that this player is a A softie, and Karl Malone is a combination of strength and violence.

Thinking about the original elbowing of Thomas, the league's punishment for Malone was only a one-game suspension, so when Malone comes... Even if the league is making drastic rectifications, it is unlikely that the punishment will be much worse than the last time. After all, the elbowing of Thomas was just a matter of time. It’s only been two seasons.

The only problem for the Jazz is Stockton.

Last season, Stockton averaged 15.1 points, 12 assists, and 2.4 steals per game. His injury means that it will have a great impact on both offense and defense. Even if Malone rematches and Li Shengli regains control of the league's penalty area, The Jazz really can't find a player who can replace Stockton and deliver offensive ammunition to Li Shengli and Malone from the outside in.

It stands to reason that the partnership between Li Shengli and Malone is already the top inside line in the league. No matter how hard the entire team plays, it is still a first-tier team. But what you need to know is...the Jazz paid for Li Shengli in exchange for weakening the outside offense and sending him away. One of the Malone brothers, Jeff Malone, was injured, and Stockton's injury meant a big outage on the outside.

Crotty's defense is greater than his offense. Jane Verhenris was originally Jeff Malone's substitute. Even if they are both put in the starting lineup, it is not enough. As for the small forward... although it is an important offensive point , but Jerry Sloan doesn’t have many people he can use. Even if Tyrone and Benoit can play the 3 position, compared with the same position in the league, neither of them can stand out.

Better than the inside line, the best in the league.

Compared to outsiders, he ranks last in the league.

No matter how perfect the lineup is, it can't withstand injuries. Just because Stockton was injured, the Jazz's fatal weaknesses were completely exposed. The specific impact will depend on the follow-up, and in Jerry Sloan's view …

Li Shengli needs to carry the first wave, and the situation will not be very optimistic.

The second wave needs Li Shengli and Ma Long to carry it together, and the situation will definitely improve.

As for the third wave of Stockton's comeback and Lee Mars teaming up, that will be the best situation. The Jazz are still the new king that puts pressure on every team.

Fortunately, Li Shengli was always there, and Jerry Sloan was grateful for his original choice.

Although there is no need to worry about the Jazz's qualification for the playoffs, if they want to win the championship for the second time, they still have to fight for the regular season ranking, because under the rule of catching a pair at the end, the higher the ranking, the weaker the opponent will be.

In fact, for strong teams in the regular season, rankings are an insurance policy. After all, the NBA has never had the eighth place defeat the first place team. Currently, the eighth place team is undefeated and has ten consecutive victories. Naturally, the Jazz's ambition is to be No. 1 in the Western Conference and ensure that there will be no mistakes in the first and second rounds.

However, one of them is missing, and it will be difficult for the Jazz to compete for first place in the fiercely competitive Western Conference. The Rockets, Spurs, Suns, and SuperSonics will all be opponents. Without Stockton, Malone's strength is certain. Next, what height will Li Shengli reach this season will lay the foundation for the Jazz's regular season ranking.

Four pairs of players!

72 points in a single game!

Big 5X5 data!

Three of the top five in the playoffs!

Li Shengli's series of achievements are absolutely astonishing. Before this... no one would have thought that someone could achieve this kind of achievement. Even if they took out those ancient beasts and counted them one by one, I am afraid they would not be more amazing than Li Shengli. After only one season Whenever someone talks about NBA centers, they can't avoid the peak of Li Shengli.
