After finishing the graduation trip, Li Liang went to the gym to practice strength for an hour at night.

Not only to maintain his physical condition, but also to sleep better at night, so that he can enter the [Almighty King] system earlier and continue his leveling journey.

After washing up and going to bed early, Li Liang came to the main interface of [Almighty King].

I saw my six-dimensional map at a glance, and [offensive ability] has slightly improved because of the improvement of the three-point level.

The [Physical Fitness] column has also risen slightly.

Li Liang thought, if he does not train or play for a long time, his ability value will probably decline.

It seems that the usual exercise is indispensable, and when the time comes to travel, take the basketball with you.

There are basketball courts all over the United States, and he has to practice to keep in shape when he is free.

After improving the ability to open three-pointers, Li Liang thought that 75 three-pointers would be enough for the time being.

Without this system, it is estimated that after practicing for a lifetime, there is no way to break through the threshold of 70.

Efforts can improve ability, but everyone's ability has an upper limit.

The greatest significance of [Almighty King] is that it allows you to break through the upper limit through hard work, making hard work more meaningful.

According to his own plan, Li Liang chose [Defensive Ability] as a major item this time.

With a thought, the specific interface of the defensive ability was opened.

[Name: Bruce Lee, 6'8"7, 229 lbs] (gained 2 lbs)

[Dimension 3: Defensive Ability]

[Peripheral basic defense: 31/100]

【Lateral movement: 33/100】

[Stick Defense/Follow Defense: 31/100]

[Steals: 15/100]

[Defensive position and prediction: 41/100]

[Inside basic defense: 17:/100]

[Low post top defense: 20/100]

【High position defense: 11/100】

[Weak side defense: 8/100]

【Defensive rebound: 31/100】

【Cover: 9/100】

[Special Skill: None]

[Comprehensive Evaluation: Grade E]

Li Liang saw that he only had an E-level evaluation, and sighed lightly, it was indeed rubbish.

Li Liang thought about it for himself. For example, E-level is the player who basically has no connection with the NBA, D-level is the marginal player in the NBA, C-level is the drinking fountain and the end of the bench, B-level is the role player and even the team rotation, and A-level is the main force of the team. Rotate with the main force, S is the All-Star level, SS needless to say, must be a superstar.

Now that I am at E-level, I really have a long way to go if I want to continue to climb up.

However, Li Liang is still full of confidence in himself. He believes in his willpower and his persistent pursuit of victory.

Li Liang directly chose the improvement task of [basic defense on the outside line].

This is definitely a relatively comprehensive improvement of defense. First improve your comprehensive ability, and then proceed slowly with specific exercises.

After being selected, Li Liang entered the task:

[Mission: Contain Durant's debut, time: October 31, 2007, location: Pepsi Center, Denver, USA, matchup: Seattle SuperSonics vs Denver Nuggets, task requirement: matchup rookie Kevin Durant , so that his score does not exceed 15 points, task reward: basic defensive ability value +5, various perimeter defensive ability values ​​+2, a random ability value-added agent, task difficulty: rookie]

Li Liang saw that this rookie-level task was not too difficult, and there were not many points added, but there was a random ability value-enhancing agent in the reward, could it directly increase the ability value?

This is a good thing.

Thinking of this, Li Liang was full of energy and decided to complete this task well to see what kind of ability value-added agent he could get.

Entering the mission, the surrounding lights up.

This is a game in 2007, not far from 2012, and it was Kevin Durant's first appearance in the NBA.

Li Liang has an impression of this game. He was still in high school in China at the time, and he knew that the rookies in 2007 were Oden and Durant.

At that time, Oden was blown up to the sky, punching Russell, kicking the big shark, and a high-end version of Tim Duncan.

Therefore, the Blazers chose the former from Oden and Durant based on the principle of having an insider to choose an insider.

As a result, Oden was injured one after another, and finally completely abolished.

And Durant gradually grew up and became a super scorer in the league.

As of 2012, Durant has won the NBA scoring title for two consecutive seasons, and he continues to lead the scoring list this season.

After missing Jordan in 1984, the Portland Trail Blazers missed an outside superstar and chose an injury-ridden inside line. What a tragedy.

They fall in the same place, get up, and fall again.

What Li Liang is going to face today is the 19-year-old future scoring champion who is just a fledgling player.

At this point, Li Liang was standing on the floor of the Pepsi Center in a white Denver Nuggets jersey.

In history, Li Liang watched the live broadcast of this game, and secretly turned on the computer to watch it when he went home for lunch.

He remembered very clearly that Durant scored 18 points and his shooting percentage was not high.

It seems that it is not difficult to suppress him to 15 points, just miss one three-pointer.

But Li Liang knew that this system would not necessarily follow the script.

He came on the stage to replace the Nuggets' small forward Yashuba Diawara. If he doesn't defend well and let Durant open up, he may score more than 18 points.

Li Liang still knows something about the Nuggets team.

For the Birds and Beasts team, head coach George Karl has always only emphasized offense in the Nuggets and did not practice defense much, so he can't rely on his teammates and must go all out to defend.

As for the offense, Li Liang thought, he didn't say he wanted to win anyway, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't attack?

But it's wrong to think about it. If the offense is unfavorable, will he be replaced by the coach?

In short, if you think about it, the game will start soon.

Li Liang looked around and saw familiar faces.

In addition to him, the Nuggets started with Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Kenyon Martin, and Marcus Camby who jumped the ball in the middle circle.

Li Liang was a little excited. After all, the first two tasks, one was too long, and the other was a three-point contest.

Today's game mission can be regarded as truly allowing Li Liang to experience the NBA arena.

Especially seeing star players like Iverson and Anthony as teammates.

Although I know it is simulated, it is much more realistic than computer games, and it can also communicate with teammates.

Across the way, in dark green jerseys, was the Sonics, a team that no longer exists.

Their center is Wilcox, power forward Collison, small forward Damian Wilkins, point guard Earl Watson, and the protagonist Li Liang will be facing today, Kevin -Durant is gone.

In 2007, Durant was only 19 years old. He was originally thin, like a stick, and his appearance was relatively wretched, with small eyes and a square face. Standing on the floor of the Pepsi Center, he looked like a child over 2 meters long.

He is the same height as Li Liang, 6 feet 9, but his arms are terrifyingly long and thin.

Standing 6'9" and weighing an estimated 200 lbs.

Li Liang wondered if he would fall apart after being hit by Anthony or Martin.

Of course, Li Liang himself is not considered strong, and his weight of 229 pounds is considered thin in the NBA. As for whether he can deal with rookie Durant, Li Liang has no idea for the time being.

The game started, Camby won the ball, and the Nuggets took the lead in attacking.

Li Liang has never practiced with the Nuggets, let alone played with Iverson and Anthony.

But he knew that his role on the court was that of a blue-collar, so he could just run to the flanks and stay there. There were two big men with golden guns in front of him, so he was not needed.

Li Liang's idea was not wrong. As soon as Iverson got the ball and crossed the half court, Li Liang went straight to the left corner.

This is a position he likes very much. In three-point training, the left corner is his most accurate point.

Iverson controlled the ball, and the Supersonics basically didn't have any defensive strength at the beginning of the game. The five players just stood on the field and showed a scattered distribution. Iverson held the ball and shuttled at will. It was given to Kenyon Martin who slipped from the bottom line. Martin turned over and hit two points with a stiff small throw.

The Nuggets scored the first goal.

Li Liang knew that the Supersonics didn't want to win at all this season, they just used it to practice Durant, and by the way, they were bad at getting a high-ranking pick.

For Durant, the Supersonics let go of the previous twin stars Ray Allen and Lewis.

In the transition between offense and defense, Li Liang knew that his job was coming.

He didn't say anything else, he posted it first as a respect, regardless of whether he has the ball or not, he leaned on Durant first.

Durant glanced at Li Liang, as if he didn't understand why this guy stared so closely at the beginning.

In the first two rounds, Durant didn't catch the ball and attack, while the Nuggets and the rest of the Supersonics played back and forth.

Anyway, both sides are not defending, and they are trying their best to push forward and play a quick counterattack, but the first game of the season is tight and the shooting rate is not high.

Li Liang followed Durant for two rounds and found that it was unrealistic to follow Durant all the time.

His speed is not fast enough, and his defensive skills are not enough, but Durant has a very strong ability to get rid of it. Regardless of his height, he is extremely sensitive.

Li Liang's concentration is high, but he will still be separated by Durant's random running.

"This is the difference in talent..."

Li Liang and rookie Durant faced each other for two minutes, and they felt the difference in talent.

Others take it lightly, but he is exhausted when he does mental calculations and carelessly.

Once again the Nuggets failed to attack, and the Supersonics counterattacked. Durant suddenly sped up his long legs to get rid of Li Liang, and then caught the ball and went straight to the basket!

Facing Kenyon Martin, Durant made a layup with a stride. Martin couldn't make up defense and could only foul.

With a light push, Martin sent Durant out of the baseline and stumbled.

This kid's strength and weight are indeed not good, but these can be practiced.

The ability to get rid of the speed and dribble directly after receiving the ball just now cannot be trained by ordinary players.

Durant got to the free throw line, made one of two free throws, and scored his first point in the NBA.

While Li Liang stood aside, Martin came over and said, "Don't lose those who are optimistic about you."

Li Liang nodded, thinking about how to deal with Durant.
