Chapter 469 Players of the same level?
LeBron is professional in preventing changes of direction, thanks to Lin Dong's unique skill, his desire to defeat Lin Dong, and even more benefit from the fact that he also has a master who is best at changing directions—— Dwyane Wade, in the past few years in the NBA, he has been facing off against Wade in training all the time to adapt to various changes.
With his strong physical fitness, zone, and several years of continuous practice, he can now even defend Wade alone.
But the guy in front of him is not Wade after all, but Lin Dong, a basketball god in today's NBA who is known as an insurmountable peak!
The terrifying third step, the almost unstoppable third step!
LeBron felt that Lin Dong's center of gravity was shifting directly. His center of gravity was still moving to the other side, but Lin Dong had already moved directly to the right side.
He was completely thrown away by the other party... He couldn't stop it, he couldn't stop it at all! Last season, in order to avoid this guy, I deliberately did not play the 3 position. I just relied on the video and the perspective of on-site bystanders to observe, which is completely different from the actual matchup effect.
This step cannot be blocked anymore...
A deep despair welled up inside LeBron.
——Kick him out! This guy is no match for Lin Dong at all, he only uses dirty tricks!
--He's back to Walnut Street? Hehe, that place is full of JN and DP, and they will be useless after living here for a few months!
——LeBron, remember to clean the arena when you leave. You didn’t mop the floor yesterday. Did you think you were the ace of that team? You are just a substitute!
——Hey, son of a big star, sitting at the door of the house again? Next time you can come into the house, I don’t mind if you watch the game, hahaha!
——The school won’t give you a chance, so you’d better choose another path...
LeBron's time and space seemed to suddenly freeze at this moment, and scenes of the past floated through his mind, including the Nike Summit, the World Championships, and the various humiliations and troughs after returning to school.
Even facing the knives of several desperadoes, the threat of the Cavaliers' former manager, and the resistance of all teams and fans in the entire league, I reversed step by step, and seized the opportunity to join the Cavaliers.
Then to the almost endless training in the past few years, the various overtures to Laura in order to get the upper hand, to the despair, re-energization, despair, and re-energization when watching Lin Dong's videos again and again...
In order to return to the No. 3 position, to stand on the stage facing Lin Dong again, he had given everything, but now, just as he had just regained the courage to challenge the first step, he was ruthlessly intercepted by the opponent. If you fail, give up, and fall back into the dust?
No! no way! I will never allow it!
LeBron's heart was roaring, and his eyes suddenly turned red after a moment of emptiness.
Bang!
He took a sudden step to support the shifting center of gravity of his body.
With a body of 120 kilograms and a sharply thrown center of gravity, all the force was probably no less than 200 kilograms of pressure. At this moment, all the force was exerted on his right leg.
The strong muscles withstood huge pressure at this moment, protecting the 'fragile' bones, and at the same time providing a recoil force that completely supported LeBron's center of gravity at this moment, and then the whole person ejected like an explosion. He started and rushed towards the other side crazily.
Still half a beat slower, Lin Dong moved first after all, and while supporting his center of gravity, he offset too much of his strength. Although his will can make his body make the most correct instinctive movements, his strong muscles can help him withstand this extreme change. Although the physical strain caused by each other, the speed and sequence of each other remain unchanged.
But at this time, the whole world seemed to slow down in LeBron's eyes. LeBron could clearly see that Lin Dong had rushed to the position about to break through, but he could also see a flash in Lin Dong's eyes. A look of surprise.
But it was this look of surprise that suddenly gave LeBron endless confidence and will.
Can block it! I can definitely stop him! Block that monster from Asia!
LeBron stretched out his big hand and forcibly grabbed Lin Dong's swung arm. With the help of the entanglement of the arm, Lin Dong was slowed down a bit, and it also provided a force for his change of direction, which actually made him Miraculously, I caught up again!
I did it, I did it!
At this moment, LeBron was filled with infinite pride and excitement.
The achievement that only Kobe Bryant has achieved in the entire NBA league is to keep up with Lin Dong's third step of not slowing down and changing directions, and he did it himself!
Although Lin Dong was not completely blocked, although not...but he was the only person in the league who could keep up with him since Kobe Bryant's magical season!
At this time, the arena had become silent, and many people opened their mouths in shock.
Almost everyone in the basketball circle is aware of the grudge between LeBron and Lin Dong. From the moment the God of Basketball appeared on American soil, this guy has had a fateful entanglement with each other.
In the first two seasons, this guy switched from the 3rd position to the 4th position. His attitude of avoiding Lin Dong and not daring to play against him also made LeBron the laughing stock of the entire league. ,
The gap was too big. He was not even qualified to be Lin Dong's opponent.
Fortunately, seeing that this guy once bravely saved a girl, seeing that this guy has changed his ways, and seeing that Lin Dong is too strong and no one in the entire league can restrict him, everyone's response to LeBron Avoiding a fight is just a matter of laughing it off.
But I didn't expect that this guy would make a big splash and keep up with Lin Dong's ultimate third step in defense at this time!
This is a 120-kilogram big man. Regardless of whether he has small moves on his hands or not, being able to do this is enough to shock the entire league.
Are you on guard?
The next second, the surprise in Lin Dong's eyes turned into gentle appreciation.
Is three-step change of direction my limit?
Indeed, from a technical perspective, three steps is the limit. It is the limit of competition that I have practiced with the help of knee pads.
But this only refers to the game state, which is the level where I can do it by physical instinct without relying on the protection of knee pads without getting hurt.
But if you include the protection of knee pads, frankly speaking, the number of direction changes of this move can be increased by two more steps until the forward speed is completely exhausted.
But after all, he has already reached the pinnacle. Most of the time, Lin Dong doesn't bother to use the protective function of kneepads to exceed his own limits, but now... he doesn't need to.
An attack does not necessarily have to change direction to continue.
At this time, LeBron and Lin Dong are on a parallel line moving forward. With the angle stuck at this time, LeBron has full confidence that when Lin Dong rushes to the basket, he and O'Neal can complete a double attack on Lin Dong. , At the same time, we must also prevent the opponent's emergency stop jumper.
LeBron is not particularly worried about the latter, because the two are completely parallel at this time and cannot block the opponent's breakthrough route, but it is also more conducive to defending the opponent's pull-up jump shot.
At this time, the two people moved rapidly towards the right side at the same time. LeBron's eyes were flashing with flames, guarding him!
But the next second...
call!
Lin Dong suddenly jumped up, but it was not a sudden stop jumper, but a drifting jump that seemed to throw his body out while keeping his center of gravity and rushing forward.
LeBron felt Lin Dong's center of gravity. The opponent showed no signs of slowing down, so he naturally followed and defended to the end. At this time, the center of gravity was still moving forward, but who would have expected that this guy could actually take off even during a full sprint.
He was stunned while maintaining the inertia of forward movement. Then he saw Lin Dong moving over his head, and the basketball he held high was already in mid-air!
At this time, LeBron's mind was full of how to seal Lin Dong, and he took off forcefully without thinking.
But after all, it was a step too slow, not to mention taking off laterally during such a rapid sprint, that is really not something ordinary people do...
LeBron's take-off block did not cause any interference to Lin Dong. The two people's take-off height, rhythm and even movements were completely different from each other. It could be said that it was almost an unobstructed shot.
Between the electric light and flint...
Uh-huh!
Bang!
The basketball sank steadily into the basket and into the net. LeBron, who was thinking only of Lin Dong and forced to take off, had already moved sideways and rushed out of the baseline. His huge 120 kilogram body flew out uncontrollably and hit the person sitting on the court. On the body of a reporter while filming.
The chubby reporter opened his mouth wide in horror, feeling the approaching black shadow blocking the sun. Apart from subconsciously raising his arms to block, he had completely forgotten to do any other evasive reaction.
Bang!
LeBron, the chubby reporter, and the camera he set up collided with each other. The impact pushed them back at least one meter, and directly hit the billboard on the side of the court, forming a long row of advertisements. All the cards collided with each other, and the huge impact sound spread far and wide in the quiet arena, which seemed extremely fierce.
——Fuck!
——Faq!
——Is this okay?
Fans across the United States, fans from Dragon Kingdom, and fans from all over the world were stunned at this moment, while Laura, who was sitting in the VIP room, stood up nervously.
This impact, this sour feeling... Lin Dong also looked over in surprise.
Frankly speaking, whether it was the third step in which he forced his way forward regardless of injury, or the subconscious leap forward at this time, Lin Dong was a little impressed by the will that LeBron showed to defend himself. This is different from another world. The LeBron here doesn't look like the same person at all.
But... such a strong impact wouldn't really hurt it, would it?
Fortunately, in the next second, I saw LeBron turn over and get up from the ground. He only rubbed the arm that had touched the camera during the impact, and he seemed to be unscathed.
LeBron was breaking out in a cold sweat. Thinking back to the moment when he completely lost control of his body, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
But now it seems that...the hard work I have put on my body over the past few years has not been in vain, and my strong enough muscles have helped me offset most of the damage!
Of course, there's that...
As soon as he got up, he turned around and looked around, only to see that the chubby reporter under him had already rolled his eyes a little. He was slumped on the ground with his mouth wide open, and he looked motionless in shock, even I was so scared that I twitched a little.
This guy's toughness saved him and himself.
I just didn't expect that after that terrifying three-step change of direction, there would be this sideways jump. He is worthy of being the most difficult guy to defend in the history of this league!
But... I at least kept up with him, this new god of basketball.
And as long as you keep up with him, it means that everyone is on the same level, which means that you will definitely have a chance to catch up with him!
I am already a player at the same level as that guy!
LeBron took a deep breath, pulled the fat reporter up who was still shaking on the ground, and helped him straighten the camera with a smile: "Are you okay, buddy?"
"Ah? No, no..." The reporter's fat all over his body was hurting, but it seemed like nothing was wrong. It must be said that fat is the best protective layer of the human body, but the mental shock was unavoidable.
A player who dares to face Lin Dong and fight hard.
At this time, countless American fans roared in front of the TV.
- Well done LeBron!
——What a pity. I almost managed to prevent him, but that guy even caught up with Lin Dong’s third change of direction!
——Didn’t you see him so fierce last season? With such a level of talent, why didn’t you light it up earlier? Last season, he even switched to the 4th position to avoid Lin Dong...
——I guess he felt that the Cavaliers had no chance to win the championship last season, so they might as well not expose themselves. Now with the addition of Kidd and O'Neal, this guy is finally going to show his strength. Haha, I was optimistic about him at the beginning. LeBron's physical fitness is too unfavorable. Oh my God!
——LeBron! LeBron! LeBron!
Even at the home court of the SuperSonics, frankly speaking, fans have not seen a guy like this who dares to challenge Lin Dong for a long time. After all, the stronger the opponent, the more they can see the super performance of the god of basketball. , if the opponent is too weak, and the God of Basketball can win just by playing casually, that would be meaningless, right?
This must be ‘encouraged’!
——Hahaha, come on, Cavaliers No. 0, you almost guarded our basketball god!
——2:0!
--Forest! Forest! Forest! Forest!
The whole stadium resounded with cheers for Lin Dong, but LeBron licked the corner of his mouth, and when he looked at Lin Dong who had retreated back nonchalantly, the fear in his eyes was already two points less, but more. Endless fighting spirit.
--bring it on!
He said to Lin Dong coldly in his heart.
Knight's ball.
Although he still failed to prevent it, LeBron's desperate performance just now obviously gave the Cavaliers considerable encouragement and confidence.
Let LeBron guard Lin Dong alone. No one expected him to succeed before the game. Even Wade, who knew his strength very well and trusted him very much. After all, there were too many people trying to guard Lin Dong, but no one had ever really tried to defend him. Succeeded.
But at least, LeBron can form a matchup with Lin Dong without losing position, and even force Lin Dong's drifting fairy ball.
As long as he keeps it up, the Cavaliers will definitely win. The fairy ball cannot be used every time they attack, and the Cavaliers can blow up the Sonics in several other positions!
On the defensive end of the SuperSonics, Chandler should have been guarding LeBron, but looking at LeBron's current state, Lin Dong chose to misplace and took the initiative to meet him.
This guy has found a little confidence against himself on the defensive end, so it's best not to let him find confidence on the offensive end.
Since this guy wants to fight alone, let's play with him!
Sakuragi Hanamichi squeezed O'Neal in the paint and prevented him from entering the attacking position under the basket too easily. Chandler directly faced the young Varejao, squeezing the opponent behind him without any pressure. He couldn't even stand firmly. At the same time, he formed an interconnected state with Sakuragi on the inside, ready to flank O'Neal at any time.
Iguodala and Wade faced off. The fourth-year Iguodala is now one of the defensive anchors of the SuperSonics. He is not too outstanding defensively, but his basic skills are extremely solid and he knows a little bit about Sakuragi. His predictions are also a little bit of Payton's death entanglement. He learns one move from the east and one claw from the west, but it actually gives him a bit of his own style, which is at a level that can barely enter the league's third defensive team.
However, against Wade, the Flash who has two menisci and has entered his peak period ahead of schedule, his defensive skills are obviously still half a step behind, which is a loophole.
Kidd steadily controlled the basketball in his hands and passed the midfield. Payton did not use the full-court press and rotation defense that the Sonics are famous for.
He knew Kidd very well. The two had practiced together since they were in elementary school. They had countless one-on-one duels. Although they basically won by themselves, that was not only because they were rich in trash talk, but also because they were older than each other at the time. Kidd is bigger.
Being older was an advantage when I was young, but now that I am in my thirties, it has become a disadvantage.
The full-court press is bound to fail, and instead the guy will get through and create a gap. Not only does that guy have an excellent passing vision, but his breakthrough and pulling abilities are also absolutely top-notch in the league.
Fortunately, "Kidd does not attack", which allows Payton to directly choose a position with one step open to defend, to prevent breakthroughs rather than shots. This can limit Kidd's breakthroughs and the pull on the Sonics' defense to the greatest extent.
At the same time, look at the Sonics' defense at this time.
Both Varejao and LeBron are locked up. O'Neal can play inside, but he has to face a double attack between the two. Wade's matchup with Iguodala is considered an absolute loophole and open space.
Will pass Wade!
Payton intentionally or unintentionally shifted the defensive focus to the left, blocking Kidd and Wade's passing route.
That's all there is to it...
Before the word 'lose' could finish spinning in Payton's mind, he saw Kidd already standing up from outside the three-point line.
Farke!
Payton cursed secretly, forgetting that this guy has a three-pointer...
"Kidd can't attack" is just a joking nickname, but it does not mean that Kidd can't attack. In fact, since joining the Nets and briefly dominating the Eastern Conference for a period of time, this guy has been practicing hard for 3-pointers for the championship. Now, his three-pointers are quite good. In the 2002 season, he averaged three three-pointers per game. Last season, he even averaged four three-pointers per game, with a shooting percentage of over 50%. Looking at the historical level of point guards, they all It can be called a powerful sound.
Uh-huh!
The basketball hit the net hollowly, and the score on the electronic scoreboard jumped.
At 2:3, the Cavaliers instantly overtook.
Kidd smiled and made a shooting gesture towards Payton: "Hey, man, you're old!"
"I'm a guest from afar, let me go first, don't be ignorant, man!" Payton felt secretly in his heart.
The Cavaliers can't stop Lin Dong. Only he knows that Lin Dong's limit is no limit at all, but the problem is... the Supersonics seem to be a little unable to guard against this Cavaliers.
Not to mention other positions, this part alone seems to stretch my hips a bit.
Kidd, who knows how to shoot three-pointers, is simply a nightmare for him who has already shot four, but he will definitely not admit defeat: "I won't give up on the next one. If you have the ability, try another one!"
Kidd laughed loudly and retreated: "You have the toughest mouth in your body! Today is the day when you Supersonics will fall from the altar. Enjoy this wonderful game, old man!"
