Chapter 205 Unfortunately, he is not a good person
Miller jumped the ball and the Bulls gained the offense. Lu Yu caught the ball and brought it to the right. Artest ran to the left baseline to form a triangle.
The triangle tactic is not only used by the Lakers. In fact, many teams are using it, but not every team has O'Neal standing in the low post. Lu Yu lobs the ball to Miller, who requires a 45-degree back.
Michael Olowokandi is a pretty good blue-collar center. His nickname is Candy Man. The reason is that the letters at the end of his name, kandi, have the same pronunciation as the English candy candy.
In fact, there is another reason, that is, fans describe his playing as too soft.
Thanks to his outstanding physical talent, Olowokandi was elected as the No. 1 pick of the Clippers in 1998, beating out Hall of Fame players such as King Notre Dame, Carter and Pierce.
As a result, after entering the league, Olowokandi completely forgot about his physical talents and was completely useless in a confrontation.
Coupled with the pronunciation of his name, he was ridiculed as "Sugar Man" by fans.
Brad Miller, who was also drafted in 1998, was not so lucky. Brad Miller, who graduated from Purdue University, participated in this year's NBA draft, but was not selected by any team.
.
So Miller rushed to Europe to make a living in the Italian Basketball League and joined a basketball team called bini viaggi.
If it weren't for the labor dispute, he probably wouldn't be able to play in the NBA.
Of course, this European basketball experience had a profound impact on Miller's style of play.
Miller gets excited every time he hits Olowokandi. Maybe this can prove that he is no worse than anyone else back then, why is this No. 1 pick not being beaten by him?
She was very much like a young daughter-in-law who felt aggrieved after a divorce. She looked so proud when she saw that her husband's wife after remarrying was not as good as her.
Unfortunately, this time the complacency went too far. After two squeezes, the turnaround shot missed the basket due to interference from Olowokandi, and Elton Brand grabbed the rebound.
The Clippers attack, Odom and Olowokandi play a pick-and-roll in the middle, attracting Miller and Artest to switch defenses and then distribute the ball to the right.
The reason why Odom didn't play a pick-and-roll with Brand was to get Miller out of the penalty area. If Miller didn't come out, Brand would play Oakley in the paint, and Miller would help defend. It would be like Brand was there.
One against two.
The Bulls did not give Brand the chance to eat Oakley alone. At this time, the role of Oakley on the court was reflected. His tough body was like a wall. Brand squeezed a few times but did not move.
During the hook shot, Artest, who had moved inside, covered him from behind, and Lu Yu picked up the basketball.
When the Bulls attacked, Lu Yu lobbed the ball to Artest. Artest played a pick-and-roll on the left, attracting Brand's defense and passing the ball to Oakley. Oakley faced Piakow who came to help defend.
Ski did not force the ball, but instead passed it to Lu Yu, who had just run outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right side.
This offense was like a smooth flow. No one stuck to the ball and didn't let it go. Basically, the ball moved whenever someone moved it. Lu Yu took the shot directly after receiving the ball, and McGinnis, who came in as a replacement, could only interfere a little.
Lu Yu made the shot on his first shot, 3-0.
The ESPN commentator in charge of the commentary said: "A good shot. Lu Yu hit a three-pointer at the beginning. He shot very resolutely. It seems that he is in hot shape after winning the All-Star vote."
"I don't know if the Clippers can return one. When the ball came into Piakowsky's hands, he chose to pass the ball. Odom received the ball and shot from the left, and he also scored!"
Odom did not adjust after receiving the ball in the elbow area. Artest was blocked and slowed down a step, 2-3.
When the Bulls attacked, Lu Yu picked up the ball from the left and challenged his opponent. He relied on continuous changes of direction to dodge his opponent and then made a three-point shot. However, he was not very lucky. The basketball bounced on the hoop twice and came out.
Miller got stuck and grabbed the offensive rebound, scored in the second attack, and caused Olowokandi's foul.
It wasn't over yet. He actually missed the free throw on his second serve, but it didn't matter. Oakley grabbed the rebound, leaned on Brand, and scored with a one-handed dunk, 2-6.
After scoring three points in a row, Brand glanced at Oakley with a fierce look and did not dare to foul.
The Clippers attacked again. After the pick-and-roll in the middle, Miller switched to guard Odom. Lu Yu came over to attack. Odom passed the ball to Piakowsky, but Piakowsky's shot missed the basket.
The rebound was grabbed by Oakley again.
Judging from the start, the Clippers' inside line was too soft on rebounds, and the gap between the two sides' inside lines was so big that it was visible to the naked eye.
Hassell dribbled the ball across half court and passed it to Lu Yu, who lobbed it to Miller from the right. Since the inside line is so easy to use, he must mainly play inside.
After Miller received the ball, he turned his back to the inside. Olowokandi, with his height of 213cm and weight of 123kg, was unable to hold up Miller. Brand had to help defend from the other side.
Lu Yu immediately made a 45-degree cut from the right and entered the three-point line. Miller turned around and saw Lu Yu and passed the ball over.
After half a season of running in, the two already have a deep understanding. If Lu Yu moves, he will definitely be flanked. After Lu Yu catches the ball, he has two options: take action or transfer the ball to a teammate on the weak side.
.
Facing Piakowsky, Lu Yu chose to attack on his own, catching the ball and making a sudden stop to shoot from mid-range. Piakowsky was pulled away by more than one meter with a sudden stop, and hit the ball with the rebound.
2 to 8,
Lu Yu’s fifth point.
The Clippers' offense is still the same, with pick-and-rolls in the middle, but this time the pick-and-rollers are replaced by Odom and Brand. To be honest, the Clippers' guards are basically useless, and they are the core organization of the team.
It's always been Odom.
But there is a problem with Odom playing the pick-and-roll, that is, he is too tall, so his breakthrough is much slower, so under normal circumstances, you just choose to overtake him and prevent him from shooting.
Artest grabbed the ball and blocked it, and Odom passed the ball to Brand in the high post in the middle.
Brand didn't take a shot. He feinted a shot and then broke through with the ball. He changed direction and passed Oakley. Miller could only retreat to the basket to help defend.
Olowokandi provided a screen for Piakowsky on the outside, and Brand saw the opportunity and passed the ball out.
Lu Yu was also very active in pursuing defense, but after being screened, he was too far away from Piakowsky. Piakowsky made a three-pointer and finally scored this time.
5 to 8
The Bulls attacked, Lu Yu and Artest played a pick-and-roll on the left, and after the breakthrough, Brand was attracted to switch defense and score the ball. Oakley did not shoot in the face of Piakowsky's defense, and passed the ball to Lu Yu who ran to the bottom corner.
.
Brand was so angry that he couldn't catch up.
Piakowsky is like a fool. After changing, he doesn't know how to change back. The rotation is a mess.
Lu Yu shot a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and the basketball fell into the basket with a "swish" sound.
5 to 11
Lu Yu’s eighth point.
This kind of catch-and-shoot three-pointer after running without the ball was learned by Lu Yu from Curry. In the years when the Warriors won the championship, Curry’s most often used scoring method was the three-pointer from the corner after running without the ball.
Separate hands.
Seeing Lu Yu scoring consecutively, Clippers head coach Alvin Gentry called a timeout.
The ESPN commentator said: "Lu Yu showed strong offensive firepower from the beginning of the game. His super high shooting rate of 3 of 4 made him unstoppable. The Clippers must find a way to curb Lu Yu's offense."
"Of course, many teams want to curb Lu Yu's offense, but for now, there is no other way except to attack him from the side. But since Lu Yu has played shooting guard, it has become more and more difficult to attack him from the side."
"What's more, Lu Yu also has a beautiful pass. He averages 7.3 assists per game, ranking fifth in the assists list."
Lu Yu's assists have declined. This is determined by tactics. It does not mean that Lu Yu's assist ability is not good. He is now playing a shooting guard. His first task is to attack the basket and put offensive pressure on the opponent. Although he can also organize
Passing the ball, but there will still be fewer assists than when I had the ball in my hands.
Before the game, Gentry tried his best to overestimate Lu Yu, but now he found that he still underestimated him. Gentry did not expect that a rookie, even if he has become the boss of the team, is still a rookie after all, how can he be so powerful?
offensive firepower.
Gentry had to call a timeout. The Clippers couldn't contain the Bulls on the inside. If they were beaten again on the outside, the game wouldn't be played.
In the apartment, Stewart's mother and Julius saw Lu Yu's performance and laughed: "This Lu Yu is really awesome. I feel he is similar to Bryant of the Lakers."
Stewart walked out of the bathroom and replied feebly: "Unfortunately, he is not a good person..."
"Why is he no longer a good person? He and Mr. Bryant saved you together. Haven't you always liked him?"
Suddenly, Julius remembered that she went to pick up Stewart from school this afternoon. The teacher told her about Stewart's fight, but the matter was settled by Lu Yu and Kobe.
Julius also wanted to thank them both, after all, Stewart, the troublemaker, had caused them both trouble time and time again.
The teacher also told herself that Stewart was picked up by Lu Yu and Kobe. If someone else had picked him up, Julius might be worried, but it was them who picked up Stewart, so Julius had nothing to worry about.
But since Stewart came home and started watching the game, she felt something was wrong with Stewart. He ran to the bathroom over and over again, and his walking posture became more and more weird.
With rich experience, Julius concluded that her daughter was injured.
Julies's mind was in turmoil. She didn't know whether the two NBA stars who seemed to get along so well were secretly guys with human faces and animal hearts.
She has always known that there are many people in the NBA who have fun, but because Lu Yu and Kobe are Stewart's saviors, she did not prohibit Stewart from interacting with them.
Now Julius feels a little regretful.
what to do?
Call the police?
still……
"Mom, do you have any diarrhea medicine at home? I can't survive. This damn guy Lu Yu insists on taking me to eat some tofu curd..." Stewart complained feebly while watching TV.
"What? Tofu pudding? Diarrhea?"
Julies was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief.
I spent a long time doing it because I made a mistake.
She suddenly thought of another possibility. Could it be that Lu Yu was trying to teach Stewart a lesson for fighting? Is this a punishment for Stewart?
This time she guessed correctly, it was indeed Lu Yu's punishment for her.
Lu Yu later discovered that the boy had indeed lifted up her skirt, but she had just pinched the edge of her skirt before she beat him into a pig's head. Seeing that the boy had a bandage on his head, and there were bright red blood stains on the bandage, he
I know Stewart is not easy to strike lightly.
So Lu Yu decided to teach her a lesson.
After the timeout, the Clippers attacked. Odom's breakthrough attracted Hassell's defense and passed the ball to the center. McGinnis's breakthrough attracted Miller's assistance, and then he passed the ball to Olowokandi.
Olowokandi caught the ball and did not take a shot directly. He took another step before hitting the basket, and was grabbed by Miller who turned around.
Olowokandi made two free throws, 11-7.
He finally scored, but the performance of this parallel import No. 1 pick was still disappointing. If he was any slower, he would be greeted by Miller's hot pot block.
