NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 2: Is Grabbing a Shot a Steal or a Block?

Chapter 2: Is Grabbing a Shot a Steal or a Block?
The scene of Lu Yuanzhi just sealing the cover was played back on the big screen at the scene. The letters "BLOCK" kept flashing, and then there was a contrast between Lu Yuanzhi's firm eyes and Lewis' bewildered eyes when the cover was blocked.

This is the second-round show of parallel imports?It seems to be pretty good too!

The fans were not stingy with their applause and cheers. The Kings' bench, led by big brother Divac, stood up collectively and waved towels to cheer Lu Yuanzhi.

But the king's dugout seemed a little too calm. Adelman just watched the players on the court quietly, and didn't discuss the rookie who was about to be transferred to the development league with the assistant coach next to him.

Indeed, what to discuss?Isn't it just a cap?Who doesn't eat dumplings?For a player like Lu Yuanzhi who has a strange template for physical fitness, what can a single block explain?
He is not even interested in caring about whether Lu Yuanzhi can perform more and better in this game. He is just a second-round pick who will report to the Development League tomorrow.

Excellent players in the league are hard to find, but there are too many physical monsters. A random 10-day contract can attract a lot of physical monsters who can run faster, jump higher and score more than 20 points in the summer league. What's the use of keeping Lu Yuanzhi?

Develop young players?

You are not a rookie in the green room. The management has designated you as the cornerstone of the team that needs to be cultivated. Why should I risk a poor record to train you?

You may really be able to cultivate it, but I was fired by the club because of my poor record. Where can I justify it?
A plug-and-play role player is a good player, and you, Lu Yuanzhi, are not worthy of my attention at all. You should go to the Development League and practice hard!
On the other side, notification sounds kept ringing in Lu Yuanzhi's head.

"The first time you block a shot, you get 1 free attribute point."

"The first time you score, get 1 free attribute point."

"For the first dunk, get 1 free attribute point."

There are indeed a lot of rewards, but far water cannot save near fire. Lu Yuanzhi looked at the reaction of the coach's bench and guessed that his performance just now had not impressed Adelman.

Lu Yuanzhi still refused to give up. He ran towards his own half and reopened the system, trying to find any skills that could help him stay in the NBA.

Steal, no!
Blocked shot, no!
Defensive technology is even more impossible to exist!

In this broken system, there are no traditional options for adding points at all. His defensive skills can only be polished by himself.

Forget it, I can only rely on myself!
Lu Yuanzhi turned off the system interface, and didn't bother to add points. Adding anything now is not important for defense.

The Kings' team is full of offensive attributes, but its defense is a bit lacking. Doug Christie, who was newly added last year, can be said to be the only defensive anchor of this team. His defensive skills and defensive awareness are very good.

However, limited by his height of 198cm and average physical talent, Christie can only be regarded as an excellent outside defensive leader. His defensive ability cannot radiate to the entire team, nor can he have much impact on the inside.

If Lu Yuanzhi wants to impress the Kings coaching staff with his defensive ability, he must show his energy where Christie cannot.

Inside top defense and filling sweep!
Wanting to understand this, Lu Yuanzhi looked at Lewis with fiery eyes again.

Come on, Lewis, play inside and give me a chance to show off my defensive skills!
Here, Lewis is very cooperative and continues to ask for the ball. This is very understandable. As the team's second scorer, Lewis still has a high status in the team. He was tricked by the rookie just now, so of course he needs to regain his face.

This is the answer ball.

This is very NBA!

However, Lewis was not stupid either. He was weak from beyond the three-point line. This time, he changed to a 45-degree angle on the right side to ask for the ball. Payton was very proud of his little brother and hoisted the ball in.

Lewis caught the ball, felt Lu Yuanzhi's defense with his back, and then directly hit the ball with his back.

Lu Yuanzhi didn't try hard to defend at the beginning. For a pitcher like Lewis, there is not much difference if you let him shoot a jumper from the edge of the penalty area or a jumper from the middle distance. These areas are his attack range, and the difference in shooting percentage is not big.

Lu Yuanzhi consciously stood on the upper line and forced Lewis to the bottom line, so that he could only attack from one direction, which could greatly reduce the difficulty of defense.

And Lewis doesn't care. Compared with 45-degree angles and fronts, he also prefers to shoot near the baseline, which is his shooting sweet spot.

Both of them moved towards the bottom line in a tacit understanding.

Suddenly, Lewis turned back and left the bottom line to go to the middle. Lu Yuanzhi didn't dare to be careless at all, and took a step to the side and rear, continuing to block Lewis' attacking route.

young!Is this a rookie?What a lie!

Lewis had already sentenced Lu Yuanzhi to the death penalty for this defense. He turned around again and returned to the baseline. This was not enough. Taking advantage of Lu Yuanzhi's center of gravity not being adjusted, he dribbled the ball backwards, and then jumped backwards. shoot.

When Lu Yuanzhi saw Lewis half-turning back, his heart went cold, thinking that the defense was going to fail this time. If Lewis took off and shot at this time, he would not be able to adjust his center of gravity and would be unable to block the opponent's shot.

But it never occurred to me that Lewis would take another step at extra cost. This is simply an opportunity!
Lu Yuanzhi took advantage of the situation and retracted his right leg, facing the bottom line, using both legs to take off and fully stretching one long arm.

Although Lewis's shot was leaning back and turning around in the air, the degree of difficulty was full, but because of an extra step, Lu Yuanzhi had an opportunity to adjust. Lu Yuanzhi, who bounced faster, touched the basketball with his fingers, and then exerted strength , The basketball was redirected and flew towards the auditorium like a cannonball.

Volleyball hat!

"Beep——" the referee signaled the sideline ball, clean defense!
"Bah, bang, bang!" There was huge applause and cheers at the scene. With two blocks in two rounds, this newcomer seemed to completely suppress Rashad Lewis.

Teammates also gathered around, touched Lu Yuanzhi's head, patted his butt, and cheered for his wonderful block.

Don't touch your head!
Oh, no Deng Daidai?That’s okay!

On the other side, Lu Yuanzhi's defense finally caught Adelman's attention, and he obtained Lu Yuanzhi's scouting report from the staff.

The height is 206cm, the wingspan is 228cm, and the position is small forward.

This figure seems to be quite good even if it swings up to defend against power forwards who are not so lethal, such as Lewis in front of him.

Adelman's thinking continues to diverge. Since he can deal with Lewis, can he guard other power forwards?

In order to deal with O'Neal, the West has hoarded a large number of insiders. The power forward position is full of stars. In addition to the King's own All-Star power forward Chris Webber, there are also Duncan of the Spurs, Garnett of the Timberwolves, and the Trail Blazers. Sid Wallace, Dale Davis, and Randolph, who later became famous, and so on and so on.

Compared with the impressive outside defense, the Kings' inside defense is too fragile.

Divac is over 30, and now he no longer has the flexibility of his youth.

The team leader Chris Webber is strong offensively and weak defensively, and you can't use your own All-Star player to do the dirty work.

Scott Pollard is good at defense and has a positive attitude, but he is just one person. How will he deal with the attacks of so many Western Conference insiders?

Moreover, Pollard's talent is average and his athletic ability is not very strong. It is okay to let him do the dirty work, but it is difficult to ask for more.

For example, in front of Lewis, Pollard couldn't defend at all, which allowed him to score 5 points in two offensive rounds in the first quarter.

But Max Lu's basketball skills are not as good as high school students, put him in the team?Adelman felt that he must be crazy to have such an idea.

Before Adelman could make up his mind, the Supersonics had already sent a sideline ball quickly. This time, Payton did not let Lewis play singles. There was not much time left in the attack, but the Supersonics ran out a chance. Bren Te-Barry shook off Stojakovic, rushed inside, jumped high, and was about to dunk with one hand.

With no defender between him and the rim, would this be an easy dunk?

Do not!
I saw a figure wearing a white jersey rushing over from near the free throw line, leaping high, flying higher and faster than Barry, with a big hand, directly grabbing the basketball in Barry's hand. In my arms!
Grab the hat!

It's that rookie, Max Lu!
All the kings' benches "swiped" and stood up, all showing exaggerated expressions of surprise.

Wow, see, grab hat, what a grab hat!

The fans at the scene were also completely excited!

WTF!You call this rookie a parallel importer?
Are you blind?Look at this cap grab, three consecutive blocks, talent visible to the naked eye!

Seeing this wonderful defensive shot, Adelman no longer hesitated, and immediately turned to the staff behind him and said: "Notify Max that he does not need to report to the Development League. Let him follow the team to Denver tomorrow!"
