In the Ten Thousand Realms League, the biggest reason why Li Tuan Tuan used "Crazy Pulling Rod" to set off three fires when he first started is that Li Tuan Tuan wanted to show his offensive threat!

In the real world, Li Tuanjie's offensive threat is already extremely huge. If the situation does not allow it, the head coach of any team would want to use five players to defend Li Tuanjie!

…

The key is that Li Tuanjie and Kobe have completely different styles. There is no doubt that Kobe is that kind of paranoid. Even if there are really five people guarding him, he is very likely to take action against the defense of five people, and Li Tuanjie It's different. Once more people come to defend him, he can pass the ball to his opponent who is open, and both will score. Whoever scores will be different...

…

The ball changed, and the game changed sides. Magic controller Sessions controlled the ball. What surprised him was that the player facing him on the offensive end of the Magic was not Li Tuanjie, but Reid!

This is definitely good news for Sessions!

Reid is the most typical player who is strong in offense and weak in defense. If he was a top player with balanced power, then the Bucks' record in previous seasons would not be so bad, and he himself would not be that bad. It will be as difficult as making it into the all-star lineup!

Speaking of Reid's partiality, one piece of data is the best proof. When Reid was a substitute for Ray Allen, he once scored 29 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 0 turnovers and 0 fouls in a single game. Come……

Such a bizarre piece of data is unprecedented...

After Sessions advanced to the frontcourt, he did not choose to pass the ball. Under the pick-and-roll of his teammate Turkoglu, he directly chose to take a shot. However, perhaps because of the cold feeling at the beginning, the goal was not scored!

In terms of rebounding, Li Tuanjie definitely had the greater advantage. After grabbing the rebound from Howard's head, he directly pushed himself forward and quickly rushed towards the frontcourt for a fast break!

Li Tuanjie's advancement speed is as fast as lightning. Although Howard's speed is not bad, it is definitely not as good as Li Tuanjie's. When Li Tuanjie rushes to the frontcourt, only Rashad Lewis under the Magic basket returns to defense in time. .

Facing Howard, it would be very difficult for Li Tuanjie to dunk over the skinny Rashad Lewis...

And Lewis's defensive attitude was not very active. When he saw Li Tuanjie rising into the air, he immediately curled up to avoid Li Tuanjie's impact...

Lewis currently has a contract worth 100 million yuan. In terms of offensive ability, the power forward's offensive ability can completely match this contract if he has unlimited firing rights!

The reason why Lewis's contract is called a poison contract is that his defensive attitude is really too passive, or he lacks confrontation on the field and is too cowardly...

Li Tuanjie's attack just now, if it were those extremely tough players, such as Garnett, the Wolf King, they may know that they can't stop the charging Li Tuanjie, but they will never run away!

Li Tuanjie scored this goal without taking advantage of the guaranteed hit rate of the Kuangtu Puller!

In the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Bucks once again showed their usual dominance.

Li Tuanjie dominated the court and scored 2 points, 1 assist and 1 rebound in the opening game...

As the game continues, the Magic's tactics are very clear, which is to shoot crazy three-pointers, use pick-and-rolls between outside players to create offensive opportunities, and shoot crazy three-pointers!

If a three-pointer is scored, of course it is a very wonderful thing, but if it is not scored, Howard, the rebounding monster inside, has to fight for rebounds, either passing it back to his teammates, or choosing a second attack himself!

It can be said that Howard's career is very tragic. Throughout his career, even at his peak, he has never become the team's primary offensive point...

In fact, this is inevitable. Howard is definitely not as dominant as the four major centers of the last century. In addition, his free throw shooting rate is very bad. If the outside pass reaches his hands, the return rate is too low...

For example, if Howard catches the ball and attacks under the basket, it will be perfect if he can score, but if he cannot score or is fouled, he will suffer a bit. Instead, the outside player will take the shot. Even if Howard cannot score, he can still guarantee rebounds!

If Howard is used as the primary offensive point, there is a high chance that the team will gain nothing or only score one point in one round. After all, the tactic of cutting Howard is currently extremely popular in the league!

And if an outside player takes the shot, if he is lucky, he will score a three-pointer or two-pointer. If he misses, there is still a way out. Howard can fight for offensive rebounds and continue to let his teammates take shots or make a second attack of his own!

After all the calculations, it is more cost-effective to use Howard as a blue-collar worker...

The head coaches of all NBA teams are not fools. If Howard is so useful as the first point of attack, I am afraid that no head coach will make fun of his team's record. After all, this is what they rely on to make a living.

Some fans may be wondering, O'Neal's free throw shooting percentage is also cheating, and shark-cutting tactics are often used against him, but why can O'Neal become the core of the offense?

That's because Howard's dominance in the penalty area is completely inferior to O'Neal. O'Neal can easily carry two or three defensive players to the basket and dunk, playing 2+1. Even if he misses the free throw, he still scores two points...

Howard does not have such dominance. This is the biggest difference between him and O'Neal, and the biggest reason for the different fates of the two!

There is no doubt that these few seasons with the Magic were Howard's golden peak. During this period, he was unable to become the team's offensive core. When he later wandered around the league, as he grew older and The decline in form naturally makes it even less likely to become the core of the offense...

Especially in those two seasons with the Atlanta Hawks, even though the Hawks were terrible on the outside, they still averaged twice as many shots per game as Howard...

Of course Li Tuanjie knows Howard's future fate, and he actually feels sorry for this careless big man, but Li Tuanjie can't change anything about this. This is determined by the development process of basketball, and Howard's skills and tactics Characteristics destined to only become a blue-collar player.

Jordan, another top center who emerged in later generations, is basically a replica of Howard...

It's not that this type of player can't play a role on the court. On the contrary, this type of player is definitely the cornerstone of every team's dream. As long as there is a team of this level in the team, it will always be a weak team. With a super blue-collar team and a few reliable shooters, the record will definitely not be that bad.

But the opponent the Magic faced today was the Bucks led by Li Tuanjie. Howard couldn't ask for anything like he did against other second-rate centers. His role in rebounding, interior defense and offense was outweighed by Li Tuanjie's. Great discount on solidarity restrictions!

It can be said that as long as the Magic's three-pointers were not so abnormal, they would have lost any hope of winning!

…

Halfway through the first quarter of the game, Li Tuanjie had already scored 8 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, while Howard only scored 2 points and 3 rebounds. The strength gap between the two sides was clear at a glance!

And the two points Howard scored were obtained by free throws. He made 2 of 4 free throws, and his free throw shooting rate was still 50% of his normal level.

Howard is miserable now. On the defensive end, he has basically made no achievements in this game so far. On the offensive end of the Bucks, Li Tuanjie serves as the main point guard. In almost every offensive round, Li Tuanjie chooses to break through the penalty area alone. After breaking in, if Howard chooses to make up the defense, he will start to distribute the ball. If Howard does not make up the defense, Li Tuanjie will take the shot himself!

And Li Tuanjie, who broke through to the penalty area, could also grab an offensive rebound in the penalty area...

As for the offensive end, Howard is under the meticulous care of Li Tuan. Let alone attacking, he has not received a single ball so far in the game. The two times he took the shot, he still grabbed the rebounds to prepare for the second attack. As a result, he was beaten by Reid and Marc Gasol fouled each of them and sent him to the free throw line...

If it's just Howard who can't open up, then it won't be a big problem for the Magic. Howard itself is not their focus on the offensive end, but the key now is that the Magic's outside shooters can't open up either, and they can't hit three-pointers. The rate is very low.

…

By the end of the first half, the Bucks were leading their opponents by a big margin again, with a score of 63:45, leading by 18 points at halftime!

In the Bucks' home locker room, Li Tuanjie sat with a strange expression on his face. The system's mandatory task was actually triggered at this time!

"Mandatory mission: make teammates better, phase four mission!"

"Mission goal: Help teammate Nick Young hit six three-pointers in this game!"

…

After reading this mission goal, Li Tuanjie was speechless for a moment. If this mission had appeared at the beginning of this game, he would have put Nick Young on the court earlier. Six three-pointers would not be difficult, but now he has played half of the game. Okay, with Nick Young's ridiculous shooting rate, can he hit six three-pointers? Li Tuanjie remains skeptical!

In other words, even if Nick Young can hit these six three-pointers, who knows how many times he will take to complete these six three-pointers!

This is already the fourth phase of the mandatory tasks. The first three tasks are Hammer Gortat, Steel Cannon Lowry and Thaddeus Young. Originally, Li Tuanjie thought that these tasks would not be included in the playoffs. Will be triggered, now it seems that his thinking is a little wrong...

"Ahem, let me say a few words!" Li Tuanjie coughed lightly, indicating to his teammates to listen to what he said.

Stotts was eloquently arranging the tasks for the second half. He suddenly stopped when he heard that Li Tuanjie was about to speak. He himself had nothing to arrange. The team was almost leading by 20 points at halftime, so what other tactics could he use? Arrangement, the reason why he kept talking about tactics all the time, probably because he wanted to highlight his presence...

"In the second half of the game, let's continue to train the new players. With a score difference of nearly 20 points, I don't think the Magic can make a difference!" Li Tuanjie couldn't say clearly and just put Nick Young on the court. After all, Nick Young was playing for Reid. As a substitute, Li Tuanjie certainly cannot let Reid off the field rashly.

"Yes, it's just what I want. I think so too. The playoffs are the best time to train newcomers. Let's unite. Look, who are you going to send on the field?" Stotts said with a smile on his face...

"Boss Reed, you should have a good rest in the second half. This Eastern Conference semifinals is not worth your efforts. Save up your strength and wait for the showdown with Green Kai. I believe you must be waiting for the day when you play against Ray Allen." One day!" Li Tuanjie said with a smile.

Reid nodded. The team was so far ahead and there was really no need for him to continue playing.

"Let's do this. Let's all come down to the starting lineup, five up and five down. Gortat, Lowry, Nick Young, Thaddeus Young and Sun Yue. The five of you come on the court and see how it goes!" Li Tuan thought. After some discussion, five new members of the team were sent.

When the five newcomers heard this, they all cheered and were extremely happy!

"By the way, after you come on the stage, I need you to show off your three-point ability. You should have noticed the current situation in the league. Countless teams are trying to kill our Bucks with three-pointers. This is unacceptable. No matter what, our bench must have two or more powerful three-point shooters, it's up to you!" Li Tuanjie said with a smile as he narrowed his eyes.

…

After the halftime break, both teams returned to the court again. When the Bucks fans saw that the home team had fielded a pure substitute lineup, there was another burst of cheers. In their view, this was the Bucks' absolute confidence in their own strength. !

But not long after they were happy, Bucks fans couldn't be happy anymore, because the Bucks' substitute appearance was a bit bad...

Although the Magic tortured the Bucks' starting lineup, the strength is there after all. Their starting lineup is definitely the first-line existence in the league. How can these rookie substitutes of the Bucks be opponents? In just three minutes, they were defeated. The opponent had a small climax of 12:3!

Li Tuanjie couldn't sit still. The reason why he couldn't sit still was not because he was chased by the Magic, but because after Nick Young came on the stage, he didn't make a single three-pointer in three minutes!

The Bucks immediately called a timeout, and it looked like they were definitely going to make a substitution!

"Haha, with this wave of five-up and five-down substitutions, the Bucks were a little too confident in their bench lineup. They really thought the Magic were weak. Now it's better. The point difference has been recovered to single digits. Si Trotz can't sit still, and the Bucks' starting lineup will definitely be put on the field again!" Charles Barkley burst out laughing in the studio.

"Yes, I am indeed somewhat confident. The Magic's starting lineup, with the strength of the Bucks' newcomers, how can they be an opponent! It's not surprising at all that they were hit by a small climax!" Kenny Smith nodded and said!

"Come on, the substitute time is over, huh? The Bucks did not replace the entire starting lineup, only Li Tuanjie came on stage?!"

…

After the timeout, Li Tuanjie replaced Thaddeus Young and walked onto the court!

"Nick, from now on, until the end of the game, I won't allow you to take any shots except three-pointers!" Li Tuanjie was a little angry!

"Gortat, come and protect the rebound with me!"

"Lori, Sun Yue, you two go set a pick-and-roll for Nick Young!"
