Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems

After the start of the preseason, the Lakers were hard to find a win.

Whether it is the United States or China on the other side of the ocean, the fans are arguing.

Ordinary Lakers fans still firmly believe that this is just a preseason game, it is normal to lose, and they didn't play well at all.

In fact, these people didn't watch the game at all. After looking through the data after the game, they felt that the Lakers scored so low that they must be useless.

Some of the more experienced Lakers fans expressed concern about the team's state after watching the game.

And the majority of non-Lakers fans are ready to beat the drums and watch the Lakers jokes.

After all, in terms of making enemies in the league, whether in the United States or in other countries, the Lakers have always been the only one, with a gap in the middle.

Of course, the Lakers still have the most life-saving straw, and that is Dwight Howard who has not yet returned.

On the 18th, the entire Lakers team arrived in Vegas by plane.

They will start their fifth preseason game on the 19th.

After getting off the plane and checking into the hotel, the Lakers held a grand party in the evening.

The management's Stu Lantz hosted the party, and the Lakers players brought their families and friends to the party.

The party venue was held in the garden of the luxurious Wynn Place Hotel in Vegas, surrounded by basketballs signed by many Lakers stars, and the center of the venue was a large swimming pool.

Many NBA workers and media personalities were invited to this party.

Good wine, beautiful women, delicious food, all the elements that should be in a party are here.

Howard took the microphone and became a DJ, and Greg Somogyi, encouraged by Howard, danced a twist dance on the stage.

The atmosphere at the scene is very relaxed and anesthetized, and you can forget the troubles caused by failure.

That's right, even if you play badly, it doesn't affect the lives of the players at all.

Luxuriant, this is the true face of the NBA duel field.

Li Liang was tired of these things, he saw that Kobe had left first and returned to the room.

Li Liang drank a glass of gin, ate something, felt full and wanted to leave.

At this time, Mike Brown walked up to Li Liang and said, "Bruce, I will let you play in tomorrow's game."

Li Liang changed his expression and said, "You can let me play at any time, you are the coach."

Brown said: "I have already communicated with Jim over there, and he forgave you, and don't care about it anymore."

Brown wants to be a good person. As a coach, he is sandwiched between the players and the management, so he will inevitably be angry.

It's really not easy being a coach in the Lakers.

In the middle of last season, the Lakers traded Odom, an important member of the team.

As the head coach, Mike Brown didn't know the news until after the transaction was completed.

At the time, Mike Brown was going crazy, and a very important rotation player just walked away, and he didn't get anything in return.

Kupchak's response to him was flat out, with no explanation whatsoever.

This season, Brown's pressure is undoubtedly even greater.

With five All-Stars in hand, if you can't play well, who will be blamed if you don't?

Li Liang is not a high school student who entered the league at the age of 18, he is already 22 years old.

He is still clear about these NBA teams. Since Brown let him appear, it means that the pressure is high.

Can that cheapskate Jim Bass forgive him?

I believe you ghost!

But it doesn't matter, if he can get a chance to play, he has to play hard.

At 6 p.m. the next day, the game was played at the Thomas and Mack Center.

Compared with the summer league, the audience at the scene is much more.

Needless to say, they all came to see the Lakers.

No matter how rubbish the Lakers play, it is still the Lakers.

Ten billion fans are no joke.

It was originally a game on a neutral court, but it became the Lakers' home court again.

Mike Brown still used the previous starting lineup, with Thackeray playing center.

Li Liang sat back on the stool this time, which means that he will get a chance to play this time.

The game starts now.

For the Kings, center Cousins, power forward Thomas Robinson, small forward James Johnson, guards Thomas Jr. and Marcus Thornton.

To be honest, the Lakers' preseason opponents were really not strong at all.

Looking through the preseason schedule, the only relatively strong opponent is the Clippers in the same city.

And in the preseason, everyone is training, but what are the Lakers training for?

At the beginning of this game against the Kings, the Lakers fell into a scoring drought again.

The ball is passed around on the outside, and Gasol, who has low post ability, is pulled up to support the high post.

Kobe and Nash, two super ball-holding playmakers, are playing off the ball.

Nash squatted in the bottom corner, and Kobe kept running back and drilling in.

Instead, Ci Shiping became a player who attacked more with the ball.

As for Thackeray, the ball was like a grenade in his hands, and he wanted to throw it out immediately.

Five minutes into the first quarter, the Lakers only scored 10 points.

The ball was passed back and forth in the half court, not only did not tear the King's defense, but caused several turnovers.

Also, the lack of athletic ability of the Lakers, the ability to push a quick counterattack is too poor.

In low-intensity games like the preseason, fast breaks are the best way to score points.

Mike Brown finally couldn't stand it anymore and called a timeout.

Kobe's face was sullen, and he sat back on the bench and looked up at the scoreboard.

Five minutes and ten minutes? Damn, I don't necessarily get only 10 points if I play alone for 5 minutes.

Mike Brown didn't arrange any tactics, but made substitutions.

Because it is a preseason game, the main players will be off the field after five minutes, and the substitutes will come on.

In this way, even if you lose, you can still say "our main players played less!"

In fact, as far as the scoring efficiency of the main players is concerned, winning can only rely on personal ability.

Brown set his sights on Li Liang, and finally let this guy play.

In the first four games, Li Liang was the only player who did not play.

Brown suddenly felt very sad. He actually wanted to pin his hopes of winning on a second-round rookie?

"Bruce, get ready to go."

Li Liang sprang up from the bench, Lao Tzu's chance to make his debut finally came!

After holding back for four full games, Li Liang couldn't bear it long after watching his teammates fight like that.

No matter how much I hope to hit Jim Bass in the face, the ball still has to win!

Otherwise, watching Kobe's stinky face every day in training will make everyone feel uncomfortable.

Li Liang took off his sports jacket and appeared on the stage wearing the number 28!

The Lakers left Thackeray and Gasol as the starters.

Li Liang replaced Ci Shiping, Kobe and Nash took a rest, and replaced Blake and Ebanks.

For the Kings, Cousins ​​and Thomas Robinson remained on the court.

The moment Li Liang stepped onto the court, the subtitles flashed in front of his eyes:

[Mission, counterattack second-round pick 1a: In your first NBA preseason game, score more than 15 points. Task reward: one rune, one rune slot. 】

The achievement system is automatically activated again, and Li Liang needs to score 15 points.

Li Liang was quite disdainful, thinking, 15 points, how much do you look down on me, the system?

Just finished thinking, another line of words:

[Mission upgrade, counterattack second-round pick 1b, in your first NBA preseason game, score at least 20 points, mission reward: two runes, one rune slot. 】

Fuck!

System, I'm just talking casually!

Why did you take it seriously and upgrade me?

20 points?

Everyone can only get ten to twenty minutes of playing time in the preseason. How easy is it to get 20 points?

Li Liang made it harder for himself, but he couldn't help it, let's fight!

Serving from the sidelines, Blake held the ball across half court and started another offensive attack by the Lakers.

Needless to say, it was still Princeton, standing 1-4, clearing the three-second zone, and Gasol supported at the top of the arc.

This position makes Gasol very uncomfortable to play, and the high position support cannot exert his full power.

Li Liang played very clearly, standing on the three-point line with his hips on his hips!

Then I watched my teammates run around, ran back and forth a few times, but didn't miss any chance.

In the end, Ebanks received the ball from the outside, held the ball and went inside to score a layup.

What kind of Princeton is that?

At 12:18, halfway through the first quarter, it was harder for the Lakers to score points than to eat shit.

The king, as the one who carried forward Princeton's tactics, has long since stopped playing this system.

Cousins ​​​​cooked the ball in the low post and went straight in, forcing Thackeray hard.

Thackeray didn't hold back, Cousins ​​smeared into the inside and made a layup with a layup.

Li Liang walked up to Thackeray and said, "Remember to call for help, don't do it alone."

Thackeray nodded, he was already on the shelves as a starter.

Playing with four All-Stars, he didn't even dare to fart when defending, and called for help?

But it was different after Li Liang came on the stage. They have a very good relationship.

In the summer league, Li Liang's defense was impressive.

Soon, Ebanks hit another goal on the offensive end, and his state is very good.

Looking back, Cousins ​​still wanted to fight again, but Li Liang's help defense came up.

Cousins ​​could only play the ball, and Li Liang immediately rushed to the outside line without giving his opponent a chance.

The king passed back and forth several times, but he didn't find a good opportunity to make a call, and it took 24 seconds.

The Lakers can defend their opponents for 24 seconds on the defensive end!

It's really Pangu opened the sky.

In the first four games, the Lakers were thankful that there was no loophole in the defense for 15 seconds.

The change comes from Li Liang's active perimeter defense and good lateral movement.

On the defensive end, he is like a universal patch, filling in wherever there are holes.

Off the court, Mike Brown was certain that this kid really had two tricks.

As a rookie, he was very calm after playing, and he didn't panic at all when he played.

It's really rare to not feel like a rookie at all.

But Li Liang was not satisfied with his performance.

Because he wants to score!

20 points!

Let your mouth be cheap, let you pretend!
