Chapter 151 Longhorn Bull and Two Rooster Fight (5K Chapter 1)
Chapter 151 Longhorn Cow and Chicken Fight (5K [-]st update)
Leaving the apartment training hall, Boss Qiao immediately made a call as if he had a backbone.
But it didn't take long for his complexion to become extremely bad.
"FK, is that Danny Ferry guy crazy?"
Facing the phone, Boss Joe shook his head: "No, no, no, John, the Bobcats have withdrawn, Danny Ferry will take whoever he wants, it has nothing to do with us!"
Then, he exchanged some polite words with his old teammates, and then hung up the phone with a frown.
"We can only deal with that old fox."
Sighing secretly, Boss Joe pulled out David Falk's phone number again.
Li Ke was right. Boss Joe had already regarded David Falk as his staff member. At this time, he had to discuss with his staff.
……
18, Time Warner Center.
16 wins and 22 losses The Bobcats, the tenth in the East, faced the Sonics, the last in the West with 9 wins and 29 losses.
Although this game is full of topics, the Schett combination will meet again, Xiaodu needs to prove that he is more difficult to defend than Lebon, and so on.
But neither TNT nor ESPN included this game in the number of live broadcasts in the United States.
Considering the record, such an arrangement is completely understandable.
There is no nationwide live broadcast, but this game will still be broadcast by local sports stations in Charlotte and Seattle, and Central Five will also broadcast the game live.
Therefore, there is still some attention to this game, and the discussions outside the court are also very lively.
The Li Ke fans in Charlotte have no idea about Xiao Du, and the Supersonics fans... er, the Supersonics should have no fans now, because they have already confirmed that they will complete the relocation to Oklahoma City before the start of the next season...
On the other side of the ocean, thousands of domestic fans are standing in front of the TV, looking forward to Li Ke's performance in the face of Xiao Du, so as to prove that——
The Longhorn's Schett combination, now it is Sheldon, not Durant, who is king in the NBA.
It's a bit like, a year ago, Xiao Du and Li Ke formed an idol group, with a lot of fans on each side.
And when this idol group disintegrated, the two groups of fans turned against each other.
Fighting on and off the field for their idols.
Well, the NBA version of TFBOYS, that's right!
"In this game, in terms of team strength, the Bobcats should have the upper hand..."
Before the game, Director Zhang slowly said this sentence, and Yu Jia also agreed: "Yes, after Iverson was traded, the Bobcats now have the strength of the playoffs!"
Before the game started, Director Zhang and Yu Jia had already set the tone for the game. The Bobcats had the upper hand, so winning the game shouldn't be a problem.
The question now becomes whether Li Ke can gain the upper hand against Xiao Du.
Even though he entered the NBA, Li Ke's performance is very good. The statistics are comparable to that of Xiao Du next door.
But as long as Xiao Du played stably and efficiently in the Longhorn a year ago, Li Ke was doing all kinds of dirty work in the Longhorn, Li Ke's domestic fans felt quite hypocritical.
As for the coffee position, now Li Ke is higher, but the strength, if you don't play a game head-on, it's really hard to say.
In the Time Warner Center, as the game approached, the Bobcats and Sonics came out to warm up one after another, each occupying their own half.
Near the middle circle, Li Ke, who was warming up, threw a three-pointer, and turned his head as if feeling something, and saw Xiao Du who had just appeared on the field, still wearing a training jacket.
Zila, the eyes of the god of death and the kid collided.
Then, Li Ke showed a relaxed smile and opened his arms.
"Xiao Du, I haven't seen you for a long time, let me see if you are old!"
On the other side, Xiao Du, who couldn't hear Li Ke's inner call at all, also smiled, and walked closer to Li Ke.
Under the attention of all the fans, they hugged each other, and Li Ke slapped Xiao Du's grown muscles heavily.
After a warm hug, there was a very different greeting from the warm one.
"Sheldon, are you ready, just like during the Longhorn period, you were always abused by me in the team training game, and this game is the same!"
Li Ke couldn't answer those words. In the Longhorns that year, it was Li Ke who was abused in the team's training game.
However, Li Ke changed the angle:
"Let's not talk about Kevin, the NCAA trophy is all my credit. Look at you now, without me, you can't win the game!"
"If you want to say this, I take it seriously, Sheldon, I will prove that I can win without you, starting from this game!"
Well, on the surface, it looks like the two are tearing their skins apart, but in reality, after they let go of their embrace, the two face each other coldly, and it really looks like they are tearing their skins apart.
The warm-up is over, and the start of the game soon entered the countdown.
Amid cheers at the Time Warner Center, the starters of the two teams lined up on both sides of the center circle.
The Bobcats are still the same main lineup after Lao Ai joined, point guard Fatton, shooting guard Lao Ai, small forward Li Ke, power forward Hua Er, and center Nazr.
For the Sonics, the point guard is Earl Watson, the shooting guard and the small forward are Du and Jeff Green respectively. It is really unclear who is the second and who is the third. The power forward Nick Collison and the center Kurt Thomas.
Speaking of which, the Supersonics lost a few important players in this game. Neither Delonte West nor Wallis Zebiak appeared. This reminded Li Ke of a trade rumor circulating before the game.
Wait until Nazr beats Kurt Thomas to win the jumper.
The game officially started, Li Ke settled down on the left sideline, and found that Jeff Green was following him, so he glanced at Xiao Du in the distance in surprise.
However, Jeff Green is not bad. Li Ke and Jeff Green also have some urgent problems to be solved.
It's just the first attack at the beginning, and it has nothing to do with Li Ke or Jeff Green.
Lao Ai received the ball in the middle, made a breakthrough, passed Xiao Du, who couldn't move with his long legs, and made a one-stop layup, scoring the first goal of the game.
So, Li Ke on the sideline asked about the two players who disappeared.
"Jeff, why haven't I seen Wallis Zebiak?"
"You don't know? Both he and Delonte were traded."
"Where did you go?"
"knight."
It turned out to be a deal, Delonty West went to the Cavaliers, the emperor is in place!
Turning around to defend, Li Ke didn't dodge or evade, and directly faced Xiao Du.
"Here we come, the first direct confrontation between Li Ke and Durant!"
When Li Ke used his short arms to completely wrap around Xiao Du, leaving no space left, Xiao Du had a questioning face:
"Sheldon, is it necessary?"
"Of course it's necessary, Kevin. In this game, I'll let you know what an NBA-level defense is."
Xiao Du really felt the NBA-level defense. Now Li Ke is like a pestering goblin, defending Xiao Du in all directions, taking care of all the connecting balls.
Earl Watson controlled the outside line for a while, but he didn't find a chance to pass the ball to Du, and it became Jeff Green who received the ball.
Brother-in-law (Jeff) Green made a detour, and after catching the ball, he singled out Lao Ai, broke through, made an emergency stop, and when he was more than one head higher than Lao Ai, with a bang, he missed the first shot of the Supersonics.
Under the basket, Hua Lao Er grabbed the rebound and then made a pass, but Li Ke got the ball first.
Then, Xiao Du, who controlled the ball lamely and didn't want to defend Li Ke, was forced to follow Li Ke to the frontcourt.
In the frontcourt, Li Kelang, who was in control of the ball, took a step forward as if urged, and then directly pulled out his hand.
Clang!
They didn't get in either, but Li Ke said, "I already voted for one!"
Xiao Du naturally squeezed his fist, turned around to attack but found that it was still difficult for him to receive the pass from Earl Watson.
However, this ball, stimulated by Li Ke, made Xiao Du feel uncomfortable if he didn't hold the ball. Even if he ran to the ends of the world, he would catch the ball.
As a result, the fans at the Time Warner Center and the fans in front of the TV found that Xiao Du was very strange in this round. He ran wildly around the half court, with a pair of long arms stretched out, and from the beginning to the end, he was doing the motion of asking for the ball.
When the Supersonic's attack reached the 19th second, Xiao Du finally got his wish.
But there were only the last 5 seconds left in the attack time, and the familiar basketball was in his hands for only two or three seconds. Then, Xiao Du had to face Li Ke's defense and throw the ball out.
Bang!
The familiar sound of iron strikes sounded as expected.
Xiao Du was not surprised, he immediately retreated to prevent the Bobcats from counterattacking.
The Bobcats were indeed going to counterattack. Nazr protected the rebound at the basket, and then passed the ball to Lao Ai.
Lao Ai controlled the basketball like an elf, and rushed to the frontcourt quickly.
The Supersonic's defense is fast, but that's just fast. As the bottom of the league, their discipline has a big problem.
Earl Watson stood at the top of the arc, trying to block Lao Ai, but Lao Ai used a very fast bow to Buddha and passed by one step.
In the end, it was Lao Ai who completed the counterattack. He rushed to the basket, made a layup, and the score became 4-0!
The Supersonics can only kick off the ball in the backcourt, and then control the ball and advance to the frontcourt, from Earl Watson to Xiaodu.
That's right, Xiao Du has learned a lot. He knows that if he starts playing without the ball, he will have to pass the level of catching the ball.
And if he catches the ball directly from the backcourt, he will have enough time to break through Li Ke's defense.
Li Ke stayed near the center line. At this time, he regretted it a bit. If he had known Xiaodu was playing this trick, he would have led the defense directly. Let's see who is more ruthless!
Forget about this round, in the next round, as long as Xiao Du dares to appear in the backcourt, he will definitely!The whole field leads the defense!
Standing on the center line, Li Ke waited for Xiao Du who came late, and began his personal defense.
Xiao Du separated Li Ke with his long left arm, and slapped the basketball with his equally long right arm, then turned around and changed hands, switching the ball to his left arm.
There was a stiffness in the whole movement, he walked very hard, wanted to stop countless times, and complained to the referee: This guy fouled!
But Xiao Du also knew that it was useless to complain, and now he was not the later Golden Wheel Punishment King, and he did not receive preferential treatment from the referee.
Going forward with such difficulty, he finally stopped at the top of the arc and put the ball to one side of his body. Xiao Du glanced at the basket and took a step...
Li Ke supported Xiao Du with one hand, and was unmoved by Xiao Du's probing steps.
It wasn't until Xiao Du really rushed out that Li Ke followed up with a single stride.
Xiao Du stopped abruptly, just like his idol, he just took a step before pulling out his hand.
Li Ke accurately judged Xiao Du's intentions, and stretched out his hand to interfere. After a while, there was a sound from behind——Kang Dang!
"Missed two shots, Durant lost his offensive direction under Li Ke's defense!"
In Yangwu's broadcast room, Yu Jia has already started blowing.
On the field, Xiao Du imitated: "I voted for two!"
Therefore, Li Ke, who was unwilling to be left behind, quickly went around the screen without the ball, caught the ball and stopped for a jump shot.
Seeing Li Ke spread his hands and said that he also hit two shots of fine iron, Xiao Du smiled.
He really wanted to tell Li Ke that he had the unlimited right to fire, and he might not necessarily be able to win in comparisons of points and wins, but if it was a comparison of the number of shots and iron strikes, then he would definitely win!
With a confident smile like this, Xiao Du waited in the backcourt again, only to find that Li Ke didn't retreat at all.
After grabbing the rebound, Kurt Thomas handed the ball to Xiao Du, and then Xiao Du confirmed that he was led by Li Ke!
"It's the defense starting from the backcourt. Li Ke is going to be ruthless!"
Director Zhang was a little surprised. Just look at Li Ke's defense against Xiao Du now. When he doesn't have the ball, he sticks up in various ways, and when he has the ball, he doesn't give up an inch. Now he even starts to lead the defense all over the court!
This defense is too ruthless, even the defense against Lebang not long ago, Li Ke did not defend so ruthlessly.
Xiao Du was also stunned, he controlled the ball with his right hand, and after two steps, he couldn't continue.
Forced to do nothing, he had no choice but to dodge Li Ke's restless hand, and then shifted in a different direction, making a gap, and continued walking.
It was three or two steps, and it was unsustainable again.
This time, Xiao Du turned around, but heard a snap behind him!
The right hand wanted to continue to slap the basketball, but it was already empty.
Violent cheers sounded in the ear, and there was a gust of wind running beside him.
In an instant, Li Ke, who had already controlled the basketball, rushed to Xiao Du...
"Steal, Li Ke controlled the basketball, and he headed for the basket!"
Xiao Du came to his senses, but his reaction was still slow. His two steps behind gave Li Ke the space to display himself comfortably——
Bang!
The roar of the basket, coupled with the more restless cheers at the Time Warner Center, directly ignited the atmosphere of this game!
Li Ke, who was hanging the frame, landed on the ground and raised his hands.
Behind him is Xiao Du with a gloomy expression, with his arms crossed without saying a word.
"It's said that Li Ke and Durant have a good relationship, but I didn't see that either!"
In a certain bar in China, a certain fan took a screenshot of Li Ke, who was celebrating indifferently, and Xiao Du, who was unhappy, and then posted it, which aroused heated discussions.
"If you have a good relationship, you can boast, just like Dayao and McGrady, they are the same!"
"No matter how good the off-court relationship is, they are also opponents on the court."
"..."
Passing by Xiao Du, Li Ke stood behind Xiao Du and stopped again.
Obviously, for this ball, Li Ke has to lead the defense!
Not only that, but when Xiao Du stood aggrieved and kicked off from the bottom line, Li Ke even taunted: "Kevin, I scored a goal, how about you?"
Faced with such taunts, Xiao Du drove the ball to Earl Watson, and then rushed to the frontcourt with long legs.
Asked for a screen from Nick Collison, caught the ball, and fought against Li Ke's defense, but still——Bang!
"I missed three shots. Li Ke said that Durant is more difficult to guard than James. Anyway, I didn't see it!"
Lebron missed four shots in the opening game and was called an offensive foul by Li Ke. Xiao Du missed three shots and was intercepted by Li Ke.
Both are misses, and there is no difference.
But Li Ke knew that he defended Xiao Du well this time because he put pressure on him from the beginning.
The rookie Du should be the kind of pitcher who has a lot of touch. His style of play is very similar to Li Ke at this time, mainly off the ball and supplemented by the ball.
And when Li Ke tried his best to prevent Xiao Du from connecting with the ball, Xiao Du couldn't make his shots accurately.
After the cold opening, Xiao Du hit the iron.
Li Ke was not much better. After stealing and counterattacking dunks, he seemed to have secured a place in the top ten shots, but in the subsequent shots, he missed another 2 shots.
Until Xiao Du Biao scored the first goal of the game, a three-pointer.
He turned his head around, changed to a mid-range shot, and then scored this game, his first offensive goal.
In this way, this game inexplicably turned into a fight between Li Ke and Xiao Du, but Li Ke was always ahead of the opening game with a steal and counter-attack dunk after leading the defense, which can be regarded as a thorn in Xiao Du's heart.
Score or something, of course the Bobcats lead.
Although Li Ke and Xiao Du have all kinds of iron fights, but on the Bobcats side, Ai beat Jeff Green and Earl Watson one by one.
There is also Hua's second, playing against Nick Collison, which has always been an advantage.
To put it simply, there is only one possibility for the SuperSonics to win this year. Xiao Du played at the level of a rookie scoring champion.
And when Li Ke pulled Xiao Du from the rookie scoring leader to the iron king, the Supersonics were at the end of their game.
At the end of the third quarter of the game, the Bobcats are already 77 to 56, leading by 21 points in the third quarter, and they can clock in and get off work.
In the fourth quarter, Li Ke sat on the bench with Lao Ai and Hua Lao Er.
"This game is really boring!"
Lao Ai looked at his stats. He only scored 19 points in three quarters, and the difference was one point to 20 points.
Speaking of which, Lao Ai was sacrificed in this game. He knew that Li Ke was going to fight Xiao Du, so he continued to control the ball and so on, but he gave Li Ke the right to shoot.
In the three quarters, Li Ke made 20 of 6 shots.
Look at Xiao Du on the opposite side, 20 of 5 shots, the number of shots is the same, only one goal is missing.
"Isn't that what a pecking game is like..."
Hearing Lao Ai's emotion, Li Ke, who was not bored, came up with a reason.
Lao Ai tilted his head: "Do you think we are rookies?"
Faced with such doubts, Li Ke could only say: "No, I just think that in this game, I am a rookie!"
That's right, Li Ke felt that he was a rookie, and Xiao Du on the opposite side was also a rookie. This match was a battle between two longhorn cows and two chickens. In the end, Li Ke won with a gap of one ball!
Went out for a walk (bought clothes for Chinese New Year), and the first update was late. Now, Yi Wen wrote 5k directly, and the second one is more likely to be 5k. There is no third update. After writing, I went to sleep, that’s it.
