Chapter 1 Invitation
Corey's offensive ability is almost non-existent. This is his biggest problem and the biggest factor restricting his strength on the court.
If Corey has an offensive weapon that can reach the middle level of the league, even if it is a breakthrough, then the overall strength of the Timberwolves will increase a lot.
It's a pity that Corey has a good talent, but his offensive ability has been unable to develop for a long time. You can't blame him for this. God is fair. While giving Corey Brewer excellent physical fitness, he also gave him There was a problem of low offensive ability.
However, the disadvantages of Corey's absence still exist. After the Timberwolves' perimeter defense is not blocked by Corey Brewer, it is like a huge sieve with loopholes everywhere. One end is blocked, and the other end leaks again. It is completely the rhythm of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
This kind of situation may not be noticeable in the regular season, and it can be covered up with excellent offense, but Li Shihao understands that once this huge weakness on the defensive end enters the playoffs stage, it will become a time bomb at any time, if it cannot be compensated , At that time, it will eventually make the team suffer for itself.
The playoffs are the stage of defense. No one dares to deny this. None of the championship teams in the history of the league is poor in defense. At least they can achieve both offense and defense. Defeat powerful opponents one after another on the thorny road to the playoffs, and finally reach the top to win the championship.
Recently, Li Shihao's scoring average has increased. The reason is that his three-point shooting percentage has increased a lot. Compared with the beginning of the season, he has undoubtedly improved a lot. Divide the ball, this is something I didn't dare to think about before.
Li Shihao used to be very envious of Stephen Curry's three-point ability. Although Curry is his best friend, he couldn't hide the envy in Li Shihao's heart.
Stephen Curry led Davidson College to a miracle road during the NCAA period. Today, the NCAA season three-pointer record seems to be set by Stephen Curry!
With an excellent long-range shooting ability, he can completely increase his offensive range by a large circle, and the opponent will also be in trouble when defending himself. Facing a player whose offensive range has expanded by more than half, everyone will have a headache.
Now, Li Shihao's three-point shooting technique that has been worrying about has also improved, and it is not in vain that he has been practicing this technique hard.
He has always loved three-pointers before, but it's a pity that three-pointers don't love him at all.
Now after hard work, the three-pointer has finally changed for him, and he has begun to favor him.
With his reliable three-point shooting skills, Li Shihao's confidence in jump shots from the outside has also increased a lot. The opponents who used to look extremely difficult now feel a lot easier when they come up against them.
Confidence comes from one's own strength. After Li Shihao's three-point shooting skills improved, his confidence naturally soared. During this period of time, he was in good condition and played a very good game. This is not surprising.
After the victory over the Trail Blazers, the media’s evaluation has changed a lot. The Timberwolves have been doing well recently. Although Corey Brewer is absent, the record has not declined. dull.
With the guarantee of news sales, the media still pinched their noses to admit it, and stopped insisting on blackmailing Li Shihao, but began to use some praise words, but everyone understands that this is only temporary. If the record of the Timberwolves appears Downhill, I am afraid that the first ones to jump out and sing the opposite are these uncrowned kings.
The next game is against the Golden State Warriors, away to California.
This game against his friend Stephen Curry's team undoubtedly made Li Shihao feel a little bit of relief and joy in the tight schedule.
Curry is a good friend of Li Shihao since high school. The two met in a bullfight on the streets of New York. At that time, Curry looked like a minor and challenged Li Shihao who was serious about practicing.
At that time, Curry was still very arrogant, thinking that he had perfectly inherited his father's shooter genes, and was extremely obsessed with three-pointers. He often practiced all afternoon and forgot to sleep and eat.
In that bullfight, Curry was dumbfounded. 11 goals determined the outcome, and Li Shihao finally defeated Curry with a 7:4 advantage.
Although Li Shihao's three-pointer is not as accurate as him, his one-handed shot is so sharp that he can go out for a stroll with the nickname "Little Prince of CIC".
Curry has no good way to defend Li Shihao. He is not good in defensive ability, and he is not bad if he does not become a colander.
The bullfight between two people is to compare whose offensive ability is better. After some contests, Li Shihao is still better after all.
After all, Li Shihao was still honing his first-hand breakthrough skills at that time. In terms of breakthroughs, Curry still had a hard time defending.
Li Shihao arrived in Oakland with the team's flight, and Stephen Curry's call arrived as soon as he got off the plane.
The voice in Curry's microphone was a little envious and jealous: "Bruce, you have been too much in the limelight recently, but you can overshadow me! You will be unlucky!"
There was some indignation in Curry's words, and Li Shihao could even imagine Stephen Curry gnashing his teeth in front of the phone.
He couldn't understand this old friend very well, his pushy personality made him the focus of attention everywhere, especially with a cute and handsome face, he was absolutely lethal.
However, Stephen Curry is still very likable and treats friends very well. This time when Li Shihao came to Oakland to play an away game, Stephen Curry took the initiative to invite Li Shihao to dinner.
The location is set in San Francisco's Chinatown. If you want to take a car from Oakland on the cross-sea bridge, the other end of the bay is San Francisco across the sea.
The Chinese atmosphere in San Francisco is too strong, not worse than that of New York, and even worse in some places.
Stephen Curry set the location in a quaintly decorated Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. Looking at the decoration, you can tell that the disinfection fee will not be low, and the taste here will probably be very authentic.
After entering the NBA, the two were divided into different teams. There were too many games in one season, and it was difficult to have a lot of free time.Fortunately, the two of them are in the West, and they have four chances to meet each other every season, and they can also see each other from time to time.
It's okay if two people don't meet together, but when they meet and chat, they will have a sour taste, making it more sour than the sour plums a woman eats during pregnancy.
The topic was brought up by Stephen Curry, which made him suffocate.
Seeing Curry took a mouthful of spicy tofu, his mouth was on fire, and after a while he said, "Bruce, you are much luckier than me!"
