Sanders on the sidelines saw that Sun Yue did not panic like Booker, but first used fake moves to create space, and then made a hit!
In fact, it was pretty good to be able to make that fake move first. In Sanders' opinion, it was enough to pass, not to mention being able to throw the ball in before the lights came on!
Seeing Sun Yue actually hit the ball, Li Kaiming and Yi Jianlian, who were also on the court, were also very happy! This guy Sun Yue, the more critical the moment, the tougher he becomes!
Rockets head coach Alder was in a daze. The opponent was leading by 15 points. Should he call a timeout...
In the end, the timeout was not called, because the Rockets responded with a three-pointer in the next round, and Coster Lee from the outside made another contribution, scoring 5 points in a row to help the team bite the point difference.
Now that the team is leading more, Li Kaiming has also begun to fish on the court. On the premise that the team can win, he still prefers to help his teammates perform. After all, no matter how good one person is in scoring, he cannot beat 5 people. , The power of the team is always greater than that of the individual.
Furthermore, after his badge system was upgraded, he actually didn’t get even 1 defensive badge point in a few games. He would have to wait until the end of the year to upgrade the defensive badge, so he planned to use this time to attack while While paddling, focus most of your energy on the defensive end to see if you can take the opportunity to get a few steals or blocks.
Five minutes passed, and Li Kaiming had to admit that with his current attributes on the defensive end, even if he concentrated on defense, it would be difficult to get data on the defensive end.
Especially his lateral movement ability and experience in position selection on the defensive end are really far behind. In these 5 minutes, in addition to 2 assists on the offensive end, he only scored one block on the defensive end. Nothing else was gained.
It seems that I still think of the NbA too simply. Here are more than 400 of the best players on the planet. How can they be defended by a water-cooler-level defender.
In the third quarter, Li Kaiming still quit in the middle of the game. Sanders now uses him as a firefighter. It just so happens that Li Kaiming doesn't want to exert his strength at this stage that is irrelevant to victory or defeat, so he prefers this kind of timing.
Throughout the third quarter, Li Kaiming played 6 minutes and scored 3 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. The Wizards also entered the fourth quarter with a 9-point lead at 86-77.
In fact, Arenas' performance today was pretty good. In addition to still being alone and boundless, his touch and game state have recovered a lot, so during his time as a substitute, he also received a lot of cheers from the home audience.
Sun Yue and Yi Jianlian had enough scenes in the 6 minutes they played with Li Kaiming. Sun Yue scored 5 points with a 100% shooting percentage. Yi Jianlian ate two cakes under the basket and scored 4 points and 3 rebounds. It can be said that he was the same as Arena. Si played together compared to one in the sky and one on the ground.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Sanders brought on Li Kaiming and the starting lineup. Now Sanders has gradually gotten used to it. In the last quarter, he directly brought on Li Kaiming to close the game. He seemed to have never thought about it. Li Kaiming will not be able to beat the opponent with his starting lineup...
And Li Kaiming was also very motivated. After half a quarter of the fourth quarter, the opponent Alderman saw that the point difference could no longer be recovered, so he called back and replaced the substitute lineup.
The substitutes of both sides fought fiercely for more than 6 minutes, and in the end the Wizards came out on top. At the end of the game, the Washington Wizards defeated the visiting Houston Rockets 112-103, winning their 6th consecutive victory since the start of the game!
Li Kaiming played 28 minutes and made 10 of 18 shots, including 3 of 6 three-pointers and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 27 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. This was the first time he scored less than 30 points since the start of the game. , but even so, this 27 points is the highest in the game.
His good teammates were also in good shape. Hinrich had 10 points and 8 assists, Nick Young had 16 points, and Blatche had another double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds.
Sun Yue shot 2 of 4 in the game, scoring 5 points and 2 rebounds. After Li Kaiming came off the court, he could only shoot catch-balls, so his shooting percentage dropped from 100% to 50%, all thanks to Arenas.
Yi Jianlian scored 6 points and 5 rebounds. Since Arenas came to the bench, Yi Jianlian's statistics have not been better.
Arenas, on the other hand, had a great time today. He took 16 shots, hit 7 goals, scored 18 points, 2 rebounds and 4 turnovers.
Anyway, Li Kaiming leads the starting lineup to win. He only needs to come off the bench and focus all his attention on improving statistics. Although he himself believes that this is his original way of playing, Sanders has completely looked down on it. .
After the game, perhaps Arenas felt that his numbers were good today, so he actually showed up at the post-game press conference.
Faced with the inquiries of many reporters, Arenas showed a happy smile, "I can feel that my state is coming back. Today I can already find part of the original feeling. I believe it won't be long before Agent 0 Will appear on the court again!"
Li Kaiming on the side secretly added in his mind, "It should be on another team."
However, reporters today are not very interested in Arenas himself. NBA has news every day, and they will not focus on just one Arenas.
The ESPN reporter interviewed Sanders and was concerned about the Wizards' current record, "Phillip, the Wizards are currently 6-0 and undefeated. Did you ever think about this situation before the start of the season?"
Of course Sanders didn't expect it, but he still said with confidence on his face, "Of course! We selected the best guys in the entire 2010 class. We got many outstanding players in the offseason. The current record is not It surprised me.”
The ESPN reporter added, "The Wizards' winning odds before the start of the season were +5,000, ranking second from the bottom in the league. What do you think of this?"
Sanders replied sternly, "This shows that capital and most fans are not optimistic about us. I understand and respect their opinions, but my players and I will prove it to them."
There were many media from China in tonight's game, and Li Kaiming naturally wanted to be interviewed by them. A reporter from Sohu Sports asked Li Kaiming on a microphone, "Did you see the details when Yao Ming was injured on the court?"
What garbage problem? The quality of this reporter is too low!
Li Kaiming complained fiercely in his heart, but still replied, "Like you, I didn't see the specific situation. I can only say that I am very sorry for Yao Ming's injury and did not play against him head-on. I hope He can recover as soon as possible and return to the court he loves. Of course, if you want to ask more questions about Yao Ming, then you have to ask the Rockets."
Another reporter with a Tencent Sports sign asked, "There are rumors that you will become a Chinese national in the near future and compete for the Chinese national team. Is this true?"
Li Kaiming smiled and replied, "No comment!"
According to Jiang Shan, the Chinese Basketball Association has indeed begun preparations for naturalization, but how could he tell reporters this kind of inside information in public?
As for where the news about Jiang Shan came from, he didn't know. It seemed that this little girl also had her own connections.
With the end of the second week of NbA games, the NbA official website and official Twitter also released the best player and best rookie of the week on the same day. Not surprisingly, Li Kaiming was on the list again and successfully caused a sensation!
Kaiming Li averaged 36.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, leading the Wizards to a record of 3 wins and 0 losses, successfully defending the Rookie of the Year and Best Player of the Eastern Conference in the second week.
Such a piece of news instantly became the biggest news in the entire NBA. If the first week's Best of the Week can still be regarded as a sudden outbreak, or a relatively good touch, then five games in two consecutive weeks would have been enough. Big.
At this time, the NbA does not have any mVp rankings, so a very important reference to see who has the regular season mVp this season is to look at the weekly Player of the Week and Player of the Month.
If a player can win all the Player of the Month awards, or most of the Player of the Week awards, then this player will most likely be the Most Valuable Player of the season, unless a competitor in another division is more unfavorable than him. sky.
