Li Ao looked at No. 21, who was staring at him expressionlessly, wondering why this guy was so petty.
He was unwilling to accept the rubbish talk of "I can take my family members on the team's chartered flight". Yesterday he saw the Shelby Jordan couple coming to work, and he suddenly had the idea to get an unconventional hairstyle. Use this to tease the 21st.
I didn't expect the emotional reaction on the 21st to be so intense... Oh!
An invisible light bulb appeared on Li Ao's head, and his right hand hammered the palm of his left hand.
During the afro period of Kobe, Duncan was able to bully him at first. Later, even if the OK team was at its peak, Duncan could defeat the Lakers in 2003. But in the summer of 2003, after Kobe started to keep a bald head for some reason, Kobe became a After losing the Spurs killer, Duncan never defeated Kobe in the playoffs...
No. 21 must have been jealous of No. 8's stylish hairstyle. She felt that her hairstyle was not as good as that of No. 8, so she became angry and ran away in anger.
Li Ao nodded, that must be true.
"Unexpected disaster:
Goal 1: The host must complete at least 1 dunk and 1 block against Tim Duncan in this game.
Target 2: Every time Tim Duncan blocks a shot, the host needs to respond with a dunk or block, which is calculated separately from Target 1.
Reward: 1 level 3 skill upgrade card. "
The rewards for this mission are good, but the difficulty is second to none.
Mainly because Goal 2 reflects one thing from the side - Duncan is targeting him.
Li Ao then thought about it, if Duncan really didn't calmly stare at him to defend a mid-range shooter, it wouldn't be a bad thing for the Clippers...
He closed the task section and opened the player evaluation report.
"Tracy McGrady, 21 years old, 203 cm, 95 kg, overall rating of 91... averaged 16.2 points, 6 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.9 blocks per game... shooting 47.1% from the field and 36% from the three-point range. Free throw percentage: 74.3%..."
He is worthy of being a super genius who rushed to the second team immediately, and after one year of adapting, he immediately made the first team for two consecutive years.
If you switch to support, you will still be at the best lineup level!
And with Duncan helping him, and focusing on organizing offense and defense, McGrady may be able to have the best lineup + the best defensive lineup this season!
Among the Magic's role players, the strongest one is Darrell Armstrong, a 32-year-old experienced veteran with a comprehensive rating of 79. He averages 13.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.3 steals per game. He has three-pointers, breakthroughs, and is a good assisting point guard. .
Then there is Mike Miller, with a comprehensive evaluation of 77, averaging 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. He is a pure three-point shooter with rebounding ability. His defense is not very good, but it does not hold him back when the team's overall defense is strong.
This is the highest-rated opponent of the same class that Li Ao has seen so far. He played next to Duncan and McGrady and had a performance of 78. If he was not lucky enough to be selected by the Warriors or Bulls, he would not be so high.
The other role players on the Magic team are not rated very high, and they are at best good role players.
Although they relied on the "Big Three" to attract some veterans to join, the Magic spent two maximum salaries and one sub-maximum salary to fill up the salary space. Except for the old players and rookies, the remaining players are worth millions. A basic salary contract worth US$100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of US dollars.
Li Ao saved Duncan's player evaluation report until the end...
"Tim Duncan, 24 years old, 211 cm tall, 230 cm wingspan, 116 kg, overall evaluation 101 (dominance level)..."
"屮!"
Li Ao felt a little sorry for Little O'Neal.
It's too awful!
…
The cheerleading performance time was over, and Li Ao came to the technical stage to apply magnesium powder and prepare to warm up his hands for shooting.
Mike Miller came up and said, "You were wearing a wig! I thought you really changed your hairstyle like that."
Li Ao rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you think he's handsome?"
"You look very handsome wearing it, and it suits your flamboyant personality very well."
"If you like it, I will ask my hairstylist to design one for you tomorrow morning. Look there, Kenyon. Let's meet him. We are in the same class. His hair style was done by my hairstylist."
"oh!"
Mike Miller's eyes lit up and he nodded heartily.
No, how come it has to do with hair styling? Let’s talk about hair style tomorrow morning.
Mike Miller looked at Li Ao's average of 24 points and 3.8 blocks per game on the big screen and sighed: "I thought it would be a different world after entering the NBA, but I didn't expect that you are still the most talented one. I can type it out.”
Li Ao saw someone coming over, raised the corners of his mouth, and asked, "Then who do you think has better talent, me or McGrady?"
Mike Miller responded: "I have really thought about this question. Just look at the 19-year-old. You must have performed better than him, but he was not the core at that time, so it is difficult for me to make a judgment. Although he does not score now. You have more, but I think if he wants to score, he should not be less than you. He can do everything, but you are only 19 years old and he is already 21 years old..."
When Li Ao heard this, he looked behind Mike Miller and said "cut".
Mike Miller was confused.
Why aren't you happy?
This was different from the Li Ao he knew. Although the Li Ao in his impression was venomous, he would never be angry because of such things.
Wait, Li Ao didn't seem to be looking at him when he cut just now...
Mike Miller turned his head to see Timac smiling behind him, then turned to look at Li Ao: ()
I came here to catch up with you and you actually started a fight in front of me!
Seeing Li Ao turn around and walk onto the court to catch the ball and shoot, Mike Miller was so angry that he was so angry. He was wrong, this guy hasn't changed at all!
Fortunately, the third brother's warm arm rested on his shoulders, soothing his heart that was hurt by his harmful friend.
After a while, the pre-game preparation time was over and the starting lineups of the two teams came onto the court.
The Clippers still have Greg Anthony assisting four young teammates.
The Magic sent out a starting lineup of Darrell Armstrong, Tracy McGrady, Mike Miller, Duncan, and Michael Doliak.
Watching Duncan come to the center circle to jump the ball, Li Ao raised his middle finger in his heart - Chang Wei, and said you don't know martial arts!
Pretend to be a decent power forward! What does it mean to go jump ball?
When he looked away, Li Ao caught a glimpse of O'Neal's expression. He thought he was dazzled and quickly looked back... Oh, wow!
Little O'Neal actually tilted his neck and chewed his braces with half of his face and nose raised.
Yaoshou!
Is the coward O'Neal so arrogant?
Still facing Tim Duncan with +2 dominance!
Li Ao closed his eyes and shook his head, looked at the center circle, and then looked at the sidelines to confirm that the O'Neal in front of him belonged to their family, instead of secretly exchanging identities with the one in the audience.
Is this a distortion of character or a loss of morality?
Or is it because he has been continuously tormented by various powerful insider groups and has become 'desensitized'?
This time, Li Ao really guessed it right!
In the original time and space, O'Neal Jr. played in the Eastern Conference and did not play against powerful insiders many times. During the key growth period when he first became the main force, he failed to get the training he deserved, and he has already become the number one insider in the Eastern Conference.
This made his playing style and mentality not particularly tough. As a result, he met the super insiders in the Western Conference and was beaten almost every time. Coupled with his own personality problems, he later became intimidated when he saw the super insiders. Even the Suns and Cavaliers He was afraid of the big sharks from the team days.
But in this time and space, after O'Neal left the water cooler, he went directly into hell mode. No team in the West has a bad inside line. Even the Warriors have a center rotation of Dampier + Foyle... It's really like 'Desensitization treatment' continues.
Now that O'Neal has figured it out, it seems that anyone can beat him and he can't beat anyone, so why should he be anxious?
Looking at the expressionless Duncan, O'Neal was very disdainful: He has the ability to kill me tonight! If I'm even a little bit scared, my last name won't be O'Neal!
…
At 8pm, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.
The 'desensitized' O'Neal was particularly focused. He immediately jumped up the moment the ball reached its highest point and moved the ball backward before Duncan.
The Clippers attack first!
Li Ao was pleasantly surprised and rushed down quickly to receive Odom's precise long pass from close range.
McGrady was one point faster and retreated to the basket first. When Li Ao received the ball, he immediately pressed forward.
Ignoring McGrady, Li Ao jumped directly and dunked...
The fans cheered wildly at first, but suddenly turned into screams.
"Snapped"
"哐"
Duncan rushed back from the middle to catch up!
The ball was slapped on the neck of the basket by Duncan and did not bounce!
The ball swirled around the neck of the basket and finally rolled down. Although Li Ao was shocked that Duncan was so fast, he quickly concentrated his attention and squeezed out McGrady to grab the ball first. With a false shot, Duncan took off again.
Li Ao turned around and took a step to the right sideline of the three-second zone. He held up McGrady with his left hand, stood on tiptoe, and hooked the ball out with his right hand... It felt good, and the ball went in!
The fans' screams turned into cheers again.
McGrady dunked and scored with a one-on-two hook under the basket against the two best defensive opponents. Fans thought the latter was even more powerful!
Duncan, who was knocked away, had no expression after landing. He looked at Li Ao, who opened his arms and retreated, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Little Spider’s basic skills are pretty good!
Although there is no skill to speak of, it is a straight forward attack that relies on strength, long legs, and long arms to complete this second attack, but it can be seen that the foundation of basic skills is very solid.
During the transition between offense and defense, Armstrong advanced to the frontcourt, waiting for Duncan to reach his position... What happened?
On the left side of the three-second zone, O'Neal Jr. and Duncan waved their four long arms, fighting wildly to get stuck!
Legend has it that the Clippers have a big spider who is rough on defense, constantly making small moves, and has a hot temper. His aunt was even knocked out on the spot. Could it be that he is just like Pear, Jermaine O'Neal... what the hell!
Isn’t this girl a weakling?
Not only was Armstrong surprised to see O'Neal bared his teeth and fighting with Duncan, but his teammates and fans were also shocked.
Is this still the little O'Neal who was elbowed by Malone and had to rely on Spider-Man to return an arm?
Isn't it true that O'Neal used black technology to shrink a circle to fight on his behalf?
But Duncan really didn't have much anger in this regard. When he encountered this unexpected situation, he fought hand-to-hand and chose to pull away to a 45-degree angle.
McGrady tacitly mentioned going to the line, catching the ball and hitting Li Ao in singles.
Seeing Li Ao's huge defensive coverage with open arms, Tracy McGrady also sprayed a curse word like Kobe did when he and Li Ao met at the training ground for the first time.
He thought Marion and James Posey's wingspans were already exaggerated enough, but this rookie would be even more outrageous!
The feeling of oppression coming towards my face!
Mid- and long-range singles are not a good choice. McGrady didn't care about the bragging he had when he had a dinner date with Kobe last night. He chose to break through.
Li Ao defended very focused and hard, keeping up with McGrady's first step, but McGrady's next two steps were faster!
The fastest three moves in the league!
Starting one step away from the free throw line, McGrady took two shots of the ball, took three steps, and directly entered the three-second zone!
Just after being beaten two times, McGrady jumped up high and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand... "Pa" and "Clang"... two familiar voices sounded.
But this time, it was Tracy McGrady who was criticized!
However, it was not Li Ao who blocked the shot, but Jermaine O'Neal, who predicted that McGrady would dunk and then shrank back directly!
The boss's playing style and personality will have an impact on the younger ones, especially for someone with McGrady's temperament.
Although he was shocked by how fierce O'Neal's contraction block was, his first reaction was to grab the ball.
Relying on the top lateral movement and take-off speed, McGrady grabbed the offensive rebound that bounced off the basket before O'Neal.
After landing, McGrady feinted a shot, and O'Neal was knocked away. McGrady took one step to the right side of the three-second zone, and suddenly on a whim, he jumped, hooked... "Pa"...
Tricked again!
McGrady's attention was focused on O'Neal, and he forgot that there was a big spider chasing him at close range!
The ball was slapped by Li Ao onto the backboard and bounced to the left side of the three-second area. Duncan followed and grabbed the offensive rebound. O'Neal pounced on him. Duncan took the initiative to lean on him, turned his back around O'Neal and came to the middle. At the end of the turn, he raised the ball. Lift-up layup...
A "NO Tim" sound reached Duncan's ears, and at the same time, he saw a long white arm appearing in front of him... "I was careless."
"Snapped"
A crisp sealing sound sounded.
Li Ao blocked Duncan's layup head-on!
Odom grabbed the ball and counterattacked, but was hugged by Michael Doliak and received a tactical foul.
Michael Doliak averages 2.8 fouls in 13 minutes per game and is like a ruthless foul machine.
Duncan high-fived his inside partner to express his gratitude.
The hand-to-hand confrontation in front of him still struck a match in his heart.
After playing tricks on Little O'Neal, he got a little excited and didn't notice that the little spider had been taken in when he took action.
Duncan now pays more attention to Li Ao.
You must get to know this newbie well, otherwise there will be nothing to talk about the next time you are interviewed by the florist media.
On the other side, teammates are praising O'Neal's defense in this round.
Fierce! Brave! And it works!
The teammates were really surprised. In the past, O'Neal's defensive efficiency had always been good, but it always gave them a "soft" feeling. It was not that he did not dare to fight, but that he did not have the energy that a strong defensive inside line should have. Son! At this point, O'Neal Jr. can't even compare to Odom, let alone Li Ao, who dares to compete with Malone and O'Neal.
Tonight, O'Neal finally got ruthless!
O'Neal heard the heartfelt praise and encouragement from his teammates...
This is what it feels like!
