Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 16 Do you want to drink water (please recommend!!)
When he was in school, Li Liang watched a lot of NBA games, including Durant's games.
In recent years, Durant has become a popular fried chicken in the league, winning consecutive scoring titles, and can be said to be one of the most difficult strikers in the league to defend.
When Li Liang wanted to defend Durant's master, the first thing he thought of was Tony Allen of the Grizzlies.
He defended pretty well against Durant in the 2011 playoffs.
With a height of 1.93 meters, he knew that he could not interfere with Durant's shooting, so he crazily stuck to Durant like a jellyfish, preventing him from receiving the ball or making a comfortable shot. Containment of Durant.
Therefore, Li Liang wants to learn from Allen to stick to Durant.
But after playing a few rounds, Li Liang realized:
First of all, I can't stick to Durant at all.
Li Liang is about the same height as Durant, but not as fast as Durant.
Although strength has advantages, it can't play a role in perimeter defense and is prone to fouls.
Secondly, sticking defense consumes a lot of energy.
The supplementary defense of other Nuggets players can't be seen, there is no systematic defensive formation.
Camby will always squat under the basket, Carmelo Anthony is even more impossible to defend, and Iverson is also the eldest brother, let alone the second brother.
Only Martin can make up for it occasionally, and Li Liang can only do it by himself.
In this way, Li Liang's defensive efficiency is very low.
After the start of the first quarter, if Durant hadn't had a bad touch and hit the ball twice, he might have scored 10 points in the first quarter, and he had already scored 6 points.
Once the defensive end is exhausted, Li Liang is a bit out of touch on the offensive end.
He has never practiced with the Nuggets, and his current ability is not enough to survive in the 2007 NBA.
On the offensive end, he didn't take a single shot. He could only make a transition point to hit the ball, which was useless.
Towards the end of the first quarter, George Karl replaced Li Liang and replaced him with substitute striker Najera.
Li Liang was gasping for breath, the plateau was quite exhausting at home, and he thought that this was an NBA-level game.
This is still the first quarter, and this is still the Seattle SuperSonics who don't want to win and don't want to defend. Sure enough, the NBA is not so easy to play.
Li Liang kept drinking water to relieve the feeling of hunger and thirst.
George Karl came up to him and said, "Bruce, take a good look at how Najera dealt with that kid. Use your brains."
Li Liang knew that this was the system's reminder to him.
He immediately collected his mind and began to sit on the bench to watch the game.
The bench seat is indeed the best place to watch, and some details can be seen clearly.
No wonder some bench players eventually became NBA coaches because they watched too many games.
Durant played the entire first quarter, but he didn't score after that, missing two shots.
Li Liang saw that Najera's defense against Durant was very simple.
Stand in a good position, fight when you break through, interfere with me if you want to vote if you don’t break through, don’t lose your position, don’t cling to each other, and always keep a certain distance.
This doesn't look like a great defense, but it feels better than Li Liang's on the court.
At the end of the first quarter, the players of both sides had a rest. Li Liang asked Najera: "How did you defend against Durant?"
The Mexican took a sip of Gatorade and replied, "How to defend? Normal defense is fine. It's just a rookie. How else do you want to defend?"
Nahura's words woke up Li Liang.
Yes, this is Durant in 2007, a rookie who just entered the NBA from college and played for the first time like himself.
Although his talent is much higher than his own, he is just a rookie, not the scoring champion in 2011.
Why should I use the method in 2011 to deal with him?
As Najera said, normal defense is enough.
Li Liang clearly remembers that the Supersonics gave Durant unlimited shooting rights that year, and he could shoot whatever he wanted.
In the first season, Durant has not yet practiced the indiscriminate and accurate jump shot, so the shooting percentage of COSCO is not good.
Li Liang only needs to try his best to interfere, and then adapt to the situation according to the score.
Learning from Tony Allen to defend Durant in 2011 is tantamount to asking for a sword.
Li Liang, who had figured this out, reappeared in the middle of the second quarter, Durant also returned to the court, and the two continued to face each other.
This time Li Liang no longer did futile defenses and follow-ups, but always kept an appropriate defensive distance and never lost follow-ups.
As soon as Durant received the ball, he immediately put on a defensive posture.
Durant is indeed talented, but as a rookie, he really doesn't have many offensive methods.
His teammates are rookies and don't have much tactical cooperation, so in many cases, he will shoot after a few dribbles with the ball.
Li Liang stretched out his hand to interfere, and then prayed "don't go in, don't go in", the ball hit the basket several times.
On the offensive end, Li Liang insisted on waiting outside the three-point line, which really allowed him to catch two chances, one time he was too nervous and missed one.
The second time, it was Martin's offensive rebound, which was scored and distributed to Li Liang in the left corner.
With a wide open opportunity, Li Liang raised his sword and hit a three-pointer!
Scored his first goal in this game! After the goal, the DJ shouted "Bruce Lee! 3-point (three-pointer)!"
The audience cheered loudly, this feeling is really exciting.
Before playing in the NBA, Li Liang got over the addiction of playing in the NBA. This feeling is 10,000 times better than sitting on the bench in the NCAA.
Of course, Li Liang's task goal is not to score three points, but to defend Durant.
The entire Sonics' offense was played loosely. Anyway, the players are fighting on their own on the court, and Durant has unlimited firepower.
After Li Liang changed his defensive strategy, he tried several jump shots from outside and only hit one. Then he rushed inside and won two free throws. He scored 10 points at halftime.
Li Liang maintained a normal defensive posture from the beginning to the end. His defensive awareness is still good, but his footsteps, lateral movement, etc. cannot keep up.
But Durant obviously played more casually, and the coach didn't care, so he let him shoot casually.
Li Liang also found a little trick, that is, if Kenyon Martin is on the court, try to drive Durant towards Martin's direction when defending, and open a position sideways, and Martin will help defend.
Like at Kentucky, Calipari has Anthony Davis everywhere.
In the Denver Nuggets, only Martin will help defend and supplement defense in time, and the others all depend on their mood.
After halftime, Li Liang made 1 of 2 three-pointers and scored 3 points.
The Nuggets kept their lead in the first half, and Allen Iverson and Anthony were really powerful.
Watching a game on TV is completely different than watching it live.
And playing together on the court in person is different from watching it from the sidelines.
Although Iverson is 33 years old, he is still like a lightning bolt on the court with the ball, and his speed is amazing.
Li Liang felt that if he went to guard Iverson himself, he probably wouldn't be able to touch him if he wanted to make a foul, and he would pass by in a whiz.
Anthony, on the other hand, was unusually fat, and he beat Wilcox on the inside several times. The sound of muscles colliding was like a tank battle.
Think about Durant who is playing against him again. If the task asks him to play against Anthony, he may be killed.
The real and fierce NBA games undoubtedly gave Li Liang an excellent psychological exercise. He thought that if he really set foot on the NBA court one day, he would never be nervous.
During the intermission, Li Liang sneaked into the Nuggets' locker room, and everything was perfectly restored, the only difference was that there was an extra "Bruce Lee" locker.
Li Liang sat down to rest. This place is indeed much more luxurious than the locker room in the 1950s, and it is also better than the one in the 1980s.
But the rest of the Nuggets seemed a little lazy, because the score was leading and it was the first game, everyone chatted casually in twos and threes.
Coach George Karl was saying some game points, but no one seemed to be paying attention.
Anthony was talking and laughing all the time, while Iverson sat there by himself, taking off his shoes and bandaging his ankles. He was covered in bruises.
Li Liang sighed, the atmosphere in this locker room was far worse than that of Kentucky.
No matter what game in the past, everyone in the Kentucky locker room would listen carefully to Calipari's tactics for the second half during the halftime break.
Of course, college teams and professional teams are definitely different, but the Nuggets are so loose, no wonder they have no defense.
Karl didn't give any instructions or conversations to Li Liang. It seemed that the system didn't prompt any more. Li Liang continued to start in the second half.
Li Liang felt that it was still a bit of pressure to complete this task. Durant accidentally scored 6 points in the first quarter, 10 points after halftime, and only 5 points in the second half.
But Durant can fire infinitely, 5 points? A three-pointer and a mid-range shot broke, his sister, it feels a bit difficult.
But thinking of history, Durant only scored 18 points.
It seemed that he didn't score much in the second half, he just hit the iron, and Li Liang gained a little more confidence.
In short, we must do our best to prevent.
In the last mission, Li Liang realized that the system is very smart. If you don’t take good precautions, Durant may hit some unbelievable debut data. When the time comes to upgrade the mission, I’m afraid it won’t be enough.
After the start of the second half, Li Liang gradually adapted to the rhythm of the game.
Anyway, it's running, running with Iverson and Anthony on the offensive end, and running with Durant on the defensive end.
George Karl basically doesn't make any tactical arrangements. The head coach of the Supersonics, Carlesimo, is also a Buddhist coach, focusing more on observing Durant.
As Li Liang expected, Durant didn't feel good in the second half. He failed to score a few shots, and then the young man tried to pass the ball and cooperate with his teammates.
But he really doesn't have much talent in passing organization.
In the intensity and speed of the game at the NBA level, there is no way to pass the ball to the space in time, so the assists are always zero.
Like Durant's shadow, Li Liang followed him all the time, so inseparable.
Anyway, apart from Durant, the Supersonics don't have any other arrow figures, and Li Liang doesn't need to help defend.
Li Liang doesn't need rebounds, steals, blocked shots, etc., so he can be a soy sauce engineer with peace of mind and serve Durant wholeheartedly.
Later, Li Liang even chatted with Durant on the court, asking questions here and there.
Although Durant was a little shy, he didn't get along with each other at first, but later he and Li Liang gradually had a flirtatious conversation.
Throughout the third quarter, the Nuggets made efforts on both ends of the offense and defense. The Supersonics were suppressed in both the scene and the point difference, and the point difference gradually widened.
Anthony and Iverson were fully fired, and the golden double guns hit the Supersonic defense line full of holes.
Durant only relied on free throws to score 1 point in the third quarter, and failed to succeed in the other three offenses.
In the second half of the third quarter, Durant was replaced, and Li Liang was then replaced by George Karl.
Sitting on the bench, Li Liang drank water and fanned the wind, and then he could still watch the game, feeling very comfortable.
As long as he survives another quarter and Durant gets less than 15 points, his mission is complete.
Seeing that the time was getting shorter and shorter, Durant reappeared in the middle of the fourth quarter.
And Karl didn't intend to make a substitution, Li Liang continued to sit on the sidelines to rest.
At this time, it was Najera who was facing Durant on the court. In an attack from the Supersonics, Durant held the ball and made a crossover change of direction on the outside. Najera followed closely.
Durant suddenly took a step back, and with the help of a teammate's cover at the top of the arc, he dribbled the ball one step, and directly shot a three-pointer from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The ball went into the net hollow!
With a three-pointer, Durant's score came to 14 points, only one goal away, and Li Liang's mission was about to fail.
"I'll fuck you! Take precautions! What are you defending against!"
Li Liang was so angry that he cursed on the sidelines.
Carl and his teammates on the bench turned to look at Li Liang. The Nuggets led by more than ten points. They didn't know what this guy was excited about.
Li Liang didn't feel good. The point difference on the court was relatively large. The Nuggets couldn't defend well. Durant might easily score a goal, and his mission would be for naught.
Although the mission failed, he could come back again, but Li Liang didn't want to waste too much time on one mission.
He immediately said to George Karl: "Coach, put me on the court, I want to play!"
Carl ignored it, and Li Liang was in a hurry on the bench, watching Durant make another unmarked jumper in the counterattack, but this time he missed.
This kid's shooting skills need to be honed... Oh, it's all fake, they have been honed a long time ago.
Li Liang struggled on the bench for several minutes, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at Carl: "Can you fucking replace me! Are you sitting here watching the game? You are the coach! Coach! You don't want to work Yes!"
[Anger value +10, from George Karl], the system gave me a reminder, it was really unexpected.
Carl glared at Li Liang, then called a timeout, and said, "Be respectful to your coach, I will replace you when the time comes."
If Li Liang yelled at the coach like this in reality, unless he was a superstar, he would definitely be DNPed and immediately let go.
But if he's a superstar, even if he doesn't yell, the coach will let him play, as long as he wants.
Karl called a timeout and let Li Liang reappear.
Li Liang hurriedly went into battle, with 14 points, and there were still 3 minutes left in the game, and he couldn't let this kid score another point.
Li Liang used his housekeeping skills. Anyway, he didn't do anything else, just stared at Durant closely, marking the whole time, comparable to a personal bodyguard.
"Is there something wrong with you? Why are you guarding me so much?" Durant couldn't help asking, annoyed by Li Liang's stare.
Li Liangdao: "Because you are the opponent."
A perfect explanation in one sentence shut up Durant.
But Durant obviously wanted to fight back, and he began to ask for the ball.
With just over a minute to go, he got the ball from beyond the three-point line.
Facing Li Liang, without any feints or dribbles, and without the cover of his teammates, he just jumped out naked!
Although Li Liang paid attention to keeping a distance from Durant, he was still missed by Durant by half a body, and his talent was crushed!
Li Liang tried his best to keep up, and reached for Durant's ball-handling position with his hand, squeezing his body continuously, not giving Durant a chance to break through to the basket.
But Durant did not continue to break through, but made a sudden stop and shot a jumper at a position 45 degrees and 15 feet away from the basket!
Li Liang hurriedly reached out to block the ball. He tried his best to block the ball, but he still couldn't block the ball. Instead, he hit Durant's arm. The referee blew the whistle and the ball missed. Durant wanted a free throw.
"Damn it!"
Li Liang cursed secretly, going to the free throw line means that his fate will be controlled by Durant's free throw.
Tonight, Durant made 3 of 5 free throws. The shooting percentage is not high, but his shooting level is here, and the probability of making two free throws is very high.
Sure enough, Durant hit the first free throw and scored the 15th point of the game.
If he hits another one, Li Liang will fail the mission.
Li Liang was in a hurry, he couldn't just watch Durant ruin his mission with a free throw.
He frantically used his little brain, originally standing on the left side of the three-second zone, he took advantage of the gap between free throws to walk to the right.
When passing by Durant, Li Liang suddenly said: "Hey Kevin, do you like Scarlett Johansson? Maybe one day you can date her, when you win the championship."
Durant was taken aback when he heard what Li Liang said, with a strange expression on his face.
Then he took the ball from the umpire, shrugged, tossed the ball twice, and was ready to shoot.
"Maybe you can drink her bath water!" Li Liang added.
"Dang!" The ball hit the front of the basket, it was short! Missed!
