LeBron James is definitely the most phenomenal high school student in the past twenty or even thirty years.
No one can deny this.
But what's most impressive about him is his explosive physical fitness.
People who have watched him play often have the first impression:
So fucking 17?
But compared to his outstanding talent and peerless physical fitness, his basketball skills are relatively not that outstanding. The media and scouts will also turn on "silent mode" when mentioning this matter.
To them, it's not a big deal.
Techniques can be practiced, but physical conditions are given by God, and the impact of later exercises is limited.
but……
As the saying goes, "Far water cannot quench near thirst." I don't know what kind of skills LeBron James can develop in the future, but at this moment, he only has physical fitness and no offensive skills. In the resolute double-team tactics of Fuli High School, he played well. With our hands tied, the frequency of breakthroughs that were always unfavorable in the past has dropped significantly.
It was also at this time that scouts suddenly discovered that LeBron James's means of breakthrough were limited. Often when there was no suitable breakthrough opportunity in the first step, he would habitually "reverse".
If it doesn’t work the first time, try it again!
High emotional intelligence: Know your strengths and advantages;
Low EQ: Brainless!
In the past, LeBron had very little technical content when he played. In this game, there was no technical content at all. It was all about physical fitness.
"Reckless" is just one word, and LeBron James said it once.
But as Fuli High School becomes more and more accustomed to his "tank charge", the rounds in which LeBron James can charge to the end are becoming less and less.
Throughout the first half, he made 3 of 9 shots, a shooting percentage of only 33.3%, and made 2 turnovers.
Entering the first game of the Ohio Division I High School League, LeBron James struggled.
It's just that the joy between people may indeed be different.
He struggled, but Drew was quite satisfied with the performance of St. Mary's High School in the first half.
Because at the end of the first half, they led by 8 points.
As a "wild card team" that "jumped" into the Ohio Division I high school league, it has not yet adapted to the overall rhythm and intensity of the game. Under such circumstances, if you can lead by 8 points, what else do you need?
Woody was the key to how well St. Mary's High School played in the first half.
In the first half, he had scored 12 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 block.
From the second-level high school league to the first-level high school league, he seemed not to be affected at all. Not only was the data unaffected, but his efficiency value was still impressive. He made 5 of 8 shots and made 2 of 2 free throws.
Of course, he was able to perform like this thanks to Fuli High School's pursuit and interception of LeBron James in the first half.
A team's on-court lineup can only use so much defensive power. When LeBron James is overloaded defensively, others can naturally relax.
Not only is Woody benefiting, but Stephen Curry is also a beneficiary.
At the end of the first half alone, he had already hit 2 three-pointers. In terms of production, it even exceeded when he was in the second-tier league.
In addition to the restraint of LeBron James, his cute appearance and thin shoulders have indeed caused some contempt among the players at Folly High School, and now Stephen Curry has made them pay for their contempt.
What makes LeBron James even worse is that Fuli High School did not change its defensive strategy in the second half and still focused on restricting LeBron James.
The head coach of Fuli High School also has a simple idea:
Woody has obviously gained momentum. At this time, if he rashly changes his defensive strategy and changes the target from LeBron to Woody, then the entire first half strategy will be in vain, and it is easy to "steal the chicken but lose the rice". "Case.
It would be terrible if he failed to restrain Woody later and allowed LeBron James to regain his form!
If they stick to the current strategy and only Woody performs strongly, then they still have the possibility of winning, but if St. Mary's High School's "double star shines", then there is really no chance of winning.
It can only be said that the head coach of Fuli High School has good logic.
But because of this, a world where only LeBron James is injured has come to an end.
In the third quarter of the game, Fuli High School's "Iron Bucket Formation" against LeBron once again increased its intensity. LeBron James could still rush, but he was intercepted more and more times. Even at 5 minutes and 34 seconds of the third quarter, he There was also an "offensive foul". LeBron, who knocked someone down, showed his hands to the referee helplessly and shouted at the opponent who caused him the foul: "I hate diving, I hate diving!" "
He was really anxious!
What grudge or grudge does the other party have?
The defensive setup against him was so brutal.
He has only scored 4 points in the third quarter so far.
And Woody...
Seeing that the score has reached 20 points.
The number of rebounds is also rising. At the end of the third quarter, I am afraid I can easily get "20 plus 10"!
Even if St. Mary's High School wins this game, judging from the data, it won't have much to do with him...
no!
Absolutely not!
When LeBron James thought about this result, he felt it was unacceptable.
I am the "King"!
How could I have nothing to do with winning the game?
He was anxious, his eyes gradually became firmer, and he was ready to take action...
In Folly High School's offensive possession, the ball moved smoothly.
This is also the characteristic of this team. Whether it is the offensive or defensive end, they solve problems through the team.
With such outstanding comprehensive physical conditions, coupled with absolute team execution, it is no wonder that this team was able to reach the final "state semi-finals" last season!
But think about this team that can only reach the state semifinals...
Ohio's Division I high school league is really a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!
The ball keeps moving, and the final shot point is the opposite No. 1 position.
LeBron James made a timely defense, preventing the opponent from taking a shot at the No. 1 position. But what was outrageous was that LeBron James did not expect that this guy would stop taking action. What was even more outrageous was that after the defense interfered with this guy, LeBron James -James rushed straight towards the basket.
Not only Woody was stunned for a moment, but also the No. 1 player holding the ball on the opposite side was stunned for a moment.
This is……
Short?
LeBron James finally realized something was wrong at this time:
Because of this ball, why hasn't it flown towards the backboard yet?
When he turned his head, the No. 1 position also readjusted his shot, jumped up on the spot, took a shot from a wide open position, and hit the ball steadily.
"Hey, LeBron!" Drew shouted towards LeBron, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
This is LeBron James. If it had been anyone else, he would have cursed.
Woody also said seriously to LeBron James:
"Man, there are some things I don't want to say, but... this is the first time and the last time!"
