Chapter 26 Ball Blind Detector

In the evening, Li Liang tried Odom's mission again. He tried his best to pester Odom crazily.

But Odom finally scored 15 points, which was only a little short of the mission goal, but this made Li Liang feel very difficult.

An NBA player with a little strength, staying on the court, as long as he has enough time and shots, it is relatively easy to score 10 points.

A big team like the Clippers is going to train a rookie like Odom.

So the coach kept him on the field and gave him enough shots.

Odom is not like Durant this time, Durant's first show was already iron.

Odom originally felt good and was in outstanding condition, so he wanted to score 30 points.

One can imagine the difficulty for Li Liang to contain him to 10 points.

Li Liang asked for the video of that match from Wei Dazhi, and watched it twice during the day, but it turned out to be of no use.

Once Li Liang entered the arena, except for the opening, the whole course of the game changed.

What remains unchanged is Odom's fiery touch and abundant energy, as well as the Clippers' tactical arrangements.

After the mission failed, Li Liang felt a little sleepy again during the day, and he knew he had to rest for two days.

In Miami, they were going to stay for a week and not go back until May.

On April 28th, the NBA playoffs started at the American Airlines Center in Miami, and the four of them went to the scene to watch the game as usual.

The shrinking regular season of 2011-2012 ended, and the Miami Heat, with the Big Three, won 46 wins and 20 losses and once again won the second place in the East. They will face the New York Knicks in the first round.

This is a very interesting series, because the head of the Knicks is the 2003 No. 3 pick, Carmelo Anthony.

The four strongest players of the 03 Platinum generation gathered in this round of the series, but the Heat have three of them, James, Wade, and Bosh.

On Anthony's side, he was alone, with Amare Stoudemire beside him. Unfortunately, Stoudemire's condition was not as good as before due to injuries.

"The Knicks lineup is still very good on paper. There is Tyson Chandler inside. You know how badly he beat the Heat in the finals last year. The guard, Baron Davis, has him. , The Knicks are not afraid of Wade! Then Anthony, Stoudemire, and JR Smith and Mike Bibby on the bench, such veterans in the playoffs are their time to play."

Before the game, Wei Dazhi blew at the Knicks, saying that he was very optimistic about the Knicks.

After all, LeBron James has become a public enemy after his decision in the summer of 2010.

Losing to the Mavericks in the 2011 Finals, James' poor performance drove him to the bottom. Now many people are ready to watch James' jokes.

For the Big Three in the championship group, if they fail to win the championship, James will be doomed.

Li Liang doesn't care who wins or loses. He likes basketball, but he has no interest in chasing stars.

He would really like to see how the Heat, known for their defense this season, will deal with Carmelo Anthony in perimeter matchups.

The American Airlines Center in the playoffs was extremely hot, which was completely different from the previous Orlando.

The game started at 7 o'clock in the evening, and the 2012 season playoffs kicked off.

The intensity of the playoffs is completely different from that of the regular season, and the two sides started a fierce confrontation at the beginning.

The referee's whistle blew very frequently, and both sides were testing the referee's scale. Obviously, the referee was stricter tonight.

The Heat lack the height of the inside, but the outside defense is really terrible. James and Wade are both top outside defenders.

Spoelstra created an extremely powerful perimeter rotation double-team defense against the Heat's configuration. Their rotation is the best in the league.

On the Knicks side, Anthony's state is very average tonight, and the Heat's double-team rotation on the outside is almost everywhere.

As long as he gets the ball within 15 feet of the basket, the double-team will come up.

As soon as Anthony passed the ball, his outside teammates couldn't make the ball.

Anthony had to face James for a one-on-one dry jumper.

Unfortunately, he didn't feel good tonight and couldn't make any shots.

The Heat seized the opportunity to hit several counterattacks in a row, and pulled the score to 6 points in the first quarter.

"Damn it, what and what is the Knicks' offense playing, go to Bibby, go to the white devil, and shoot through the Heat!"

Wei Dazhi directed blindly off the court. Anyway, he spoke Chinese and the Miami fans around him couldn't understand.

In the second quarter, the Heat really put on Mike Bibby, but they missed a single shot from outside and the defense couldn't keep up.

The score gap widened even more, because Anthony was contained at this point, and the Knicks' offense completely collapsed.

"Oh, what and what, what and what! You can't even make a shot!"

Wei Dazhi watched Anthony hit the iron again and again from the sidelines, scratching his head anxiously.

When the Knicks trailed by more than 20 points in the third quarter, Wei Dazhi was completely desperate, knowing that the Knicks were doomed, and this game could not be won.

The Heat's morale became more and more vigorous amidst the cheers of the home fans. They defeated the Knicks in one fell swoop and strangled the New Yorkers with their steely defense.

The final score was 100:67, and the Knicks didn't score as many as the Heat in three quarters.

If it weren't for the Heat giving up defense and playing casually in the fourth quarter, the Knicks' total score would only be lower.

Carmelo Anthony, the Knicks' core, made only 3 of 15 shots and scored 11 points. His performance was quite poor.

In the series, the Heat lead 1:0.

"It's okay, it's okay, the first game of the playoffs, and it's an away game, it's normal to not play well. A loss of 1 point is the same as a loss of 30 points. It's 0:1 anyway. If they win the second game, the Knicks can win It’s home court advantage, so it’s still beneficial. Moreover, the Knicks were woken up by losing so much. According to the law of character conservation, Anthony will definitely explode in the next game. This is a good thing. Think about it, the 1985 NBA Finals In the finals, the Celtics slaughtered the Lakers by 40 points in the first game. What's the use? The Lakers realized their shame and were brave enough to win the championship!"

On the way back, Wei Dazhi quoted scriptures, and through various logical analysis, he believed that the Knicks' loss was not a bad thing, but a good thing.

Li Liang looked at Wei Dazhi while driving, and shook his head helplessly, thinking he was crazy again.

Basketball is so miraculous that it can make a normal person emotional, call black into white, and white into purple, and the logic is self-consistent.

Of course, basketball itself has great uncertainty, and the NBA is the place where miracles are born.

So, it's normal to be crazy.

Li Liang doesn't care if the Heat and the Knicks win or lose, he has more to gain.

The Heat's defense tonight gave him a lot of inspiration.

He realized he wasn't going to be enough alone to keep Odom down to 10 points in the 1999 game.

He needs help from his teammates, help from the system, and then a little luck.

After returning to the hotel, Li Liang picked up Wei Dazhi's computer and carefully watched all the 1999-2000 Supersonic games.

In the 1990s, the Sonics were also a strong defensive team.

George Karl hadn't given up on treatment at that time, and he focused on offense like the Nuggets, regardless of defense.

The supersonic's defensive characteristics are simple, that is, they rely on tall forward players to double-team the ball holder.

This is a bit similar to the Heat this year, except that the Heat are weaker on the inside, while the Supersonics are a good player on the inside.

The Sonics have a big lock like Gary Payton on the perimeter.

Although he is a point guard, he is physically strong, tall enough, and has a lot of movement in his hands.

In the two missions, Li Liang relied on himself to deal with it. He never made good use of the Supersonic's defensive system and called his teammates for help.

Although the Sonics in the 2000 season did not have the defensive intensity of the mid-90s, the foundation is still there.

Li Liang thought that he should make good use of it, otherwise Odom would be really difficult to deal with.

As the official water dispenser administrator on the bench at the University of Kentucky, Li Liang's knowledge of tactical theory is quite rich.

And he is not a keyboard man like Wei Dazhi, he has really practiced in a high-level team and has a good understanding of tactics.

He used to be a sparring partner in the team and often played a defensive role.

So, with a calculation in his heart, he knew what to do.

Back at the hotel at night, after turning off the lights and going to sleep, he entered the [Almighty King] system.

【Welcome to Almighty King training ground again, visitor: Bruce Lee, 6 feet 9, 230 pounds. 】

During this period of exercising and having fun, Li Liang's weight has increased to 230 pounds, and all of them are muscles.

Or continue with the task of [Containing Odom's debut] and come back to the Staples Center, Payton is standing next to him chewing gum again.

"Defend the kid well, you're not here to watch the ball." Payton still said the same thing.

This time Li Liang had an idea and said, "Boss, I need your help. I want to suppress Odom."

Peyton said: "Is there any grievance with him? That kid makes people look a little uncomfortable."

Li Liang hurriedly said: "That's right, when he just warmed up, he told me that I would get 30 points on my head, but I told him it was impossible, I will let you get 10 points at most."

Payton said: "What are you talking about, 10 points? You shouldn't let him score. I will help you and teach him a lesson."

Li Liang successfully talked about Payton, this old boy likes to bully rookies, Odom hit the gun.

From the looks of it, every task in this system has a lot to ponder.

If Li Liang hadn't talked to Peyton, he might not have been able to complete this task.

After the start of the game, as before, Odom didn't play much in the first quarter.

On the other hand, Li Liang actively ran and attacked. Although he didn't score a goal, he caused a foul by Odom.

Li Liang concluded that the defensive end must contain the opponent, and the offensive end must also create trouble for the opponent.

Let him foul, consume his energy, and disrupt his rhythm, all of which can affect the opponent's offense.

In the second quarter, when Odom showed off his power, Payton was sitting off the court at this time, and Li Liang was beaten into two by Odom, 4 points.

When the main players returned from rest, Payton began to assist Li Liang in defense.

Odom likes to dribble on the outside and cut in. Li Liang let him go in the middle, and Odom went straight into the three-second zone.

As soon as he raised his hand, the ball was gone.

Payton came to help from the other side and cut the ball right out of Odom's hands.

A successful defense, the supersonic counterattacked quickly, Li Liang took the lead, received a pass from Payton, and made a layup!

miss.

Sorry, the goal could have been scored, but it wasn't necessary.

Anyway, the Supersonics were already ahead, and Li Liang didn't want to make things worse, so he acted.

"Hit the boy well, don't you score this goal?"

Payton complained and turned around, because the score was not opened, he continued to help defend.

Li Liang still gave way to the middle. This time Odom did not go in the middle, but walked to the side, using his strength advantage to grind in.

In the previous game, Odom used this trick to hit several times. He ran to the inside, smashed the space with his body, and then made a small throw.

This time Li Liang was well prepared and took his position, Odom knocked Li Liang down with a "bang".

"Beep!"

The referee blew his whistle and called Odom an offensive foul.

"Yes!" Li Liangyi, who had successfully committed a foul, got up and rejoined the game.

Of course, Odom was unconvinced when he failed to fight twice in a row, and he would continue to fight later.

At this time, he had committed two fouls on his back and failed two consecutive breakthroughs, so after a few tentative steps from the outside, he chose to directly shoot a jumper.

"Dang!" Hit the iron.

Direct pull-up jump shots are not Odom's strong point. His shots are ineffective when they fail.

As a rookie, Odom missed several consecutive offenses. Even if he is a key training target, his teammates will not let him continue to play.

After all, his talent and status in the team are not yet at the level of Durant and James.

Li Liang, on the other hand, is more experienced in defense. Not only does he cooperate seamlessly with Payton, but he also establishes a relationship with Hollis Grant on the inside.

When he was in Kentucky, Calipari put a lot of emphasis on defense, and the defensive players had to keep shouting during the game.

Because the offense faces the basket, the ball handler can see his teammates.

The defensive side is the passive side, with their backs to the basket most of the time, and outside defenders often cannot see where their teammates are.

If you don't roar or communicate, there will be various loopholes on the defensive end.

To deal with Odom's flexible and multi-faceted style of play and comprehensive skills, players need the assistance of the team.

At the end of halftime, Odom scored 4 points in total, and his mentality was a little shaken.

In the original history, he played well in the second quarter, and then he played more and more smoothly, and then he won an amazing debut.

Like a rookie player, they lack mentality and experience, and will not adjust when they encounter trouble in the game. If they collapse, they will collapse.

By the third quarter, Odom stopped attacking after missing two 3-pointers from the perimeter, his confidence gone.

The Supersonics slowly widened the point difference, and Li Liang also made two three-pointers. He couldn't keep holding back.

Because of their excellent defense, the Sonics turned the fourth quarter into garbage time.

Of course, Li Liang asked George Karl not to replace him, as long as Odom is there, he will stay.

Li Liang was careful not to foul, and then tried not to let Odom catch the ball, and did not let Odom score points in garbage time.

In the end, Odom was really anxious. He pushed Li Liang angrily during the attack and got a technical foul.

Then he had a chattering argument with the referee. This rookie, who was already impulsive and showy, was directly expelled by the referee.

Now Li Liang was brisk and expelled, and Odom's score stayed at 7 points.

Before leaving the game, Odom also questioned Li Liang: "You have something wrong with your brain? Why are you targeting me?"

Li Liang just smiled and said, "Welcome to the NBA."

When the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, Li Liang let out a long sigh of relief and sat down on the floor.

mission completed.

The Staples Center slowly disappeared, fans and players disappeared into the darkness.
