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

Chapter 298 Why have you outside players never tried it?

However, during this festive time, there are also many Los Angeles media hyping up possible conflicts in the Kings' locker room.

According to their logic, this is an inappropriate drama of fighting for the boss?
We, the Lakers, have a conflict for the boss, why can't you, the Kings, have it?
We can enslave black people to grow cotton, why can’t you Chinese have it?
The Kings players really wanted to laugh when they saw the furious look of the Los Angeles media!
Sorry, there are really no black slaves in China!

Before the start of the second series, Chris Webber was chatting with Lu Yuanzhi sitting next to him in the Kings locker room.

"The team hasn't asked you to renew your contract yet?"

"I heard from my agent that they are only willing to pay for the mid-level, and the Pacers have already offered the maximum salary for a sign-and-trade."

Weber nodded. The situation was already clear. The Kings were unwilling to pay the luxury tax in order to retain the championship lineup. Even if he forced to retain Lu Yuanzhi, it would mean sending away at least two current teammates.

This was beyond the limits of Weber's influence.

If the boss is unwilling to pay, there is nothing anyone can do.

I don’t see superstars like O’Neal and Kobe next door. As long as Old Buss is unwilling to pay, there is nothing he can do. Maybe the OK team will fall apart next year!

Although it was fun to watch the jokes made by his old rival, it was a bit painful to suffer the boomerang himself.

Contrary to what the outside media imagined, there was no struggle for power in the Kings locker room. Instead, there was sympathy for the last opportunity to cooperate.

It is probably very difficult to win the Triple Crown, but this year may be a unique opportunity in my life to win two consecutive championships.

In this case, not to mention that there are no conflicts within the team at all, even if there are conflicts, everyone is willing to endure it and win the championship.

In the second game of the series, the Kings lineup had no changes and remained unchanged in response to changes, while the Suns had to make adjustments.

The adjustment was simple. They started with veteran center Gugliotta, Stoudemire played power forward against Weber, and Marion defended Lu Yuanzhi.

Joe Johnson, the future Eagle king who originally defended Lu Yuanzhi, returned to the Suns' bench.

Interestingly, the future Elvis Presley Gerald Wallace sat on the bench for the Kings.

The future belongs to you, and now, they are all sitting on the bench because of Lu Yuanzhi.

The Suns made such an adjustment out of helplessness. Originally, the Suns' lineup was more aggressive and could better seize the Kings' internal flaws and score more easily, but there was no way.

In the first game, Lu Yuanzhi descended from heaven and single-handedly destroyed the Suns' defensive system, forcing them to make adjustments and let Marion, the team's best defender, guard Lu Yuanzhi.

马里昂身高201公分，臂展却达到了恐怖的223公分，臂展身高比高达1.109，比身高206公分臂展228公分的陆远志的1.106还要夸张。

"Hacker", like Lu Yuanzhi, is also a defensive warrior who can defend from the second position to the fourth position.

If he were in the small ball era, he could still defend the fifth position.

But there was no way. After research, the Suns found that if they wanted to restrict Lu Yuanzhi, they could only send Marion to guard him.

As for whether the offensive end will be constipated, I can't care about it now.

After standing on the court, Lu Yuanzhi saw that his defender had become Marion. He was stunned at first, and then became happy.

Just right, I can test my offensive strength!
After facing Marion's defense, Lu Yuanzhi did not directly choose to take a super long-distance shot like he did in the last game. He ran without the ball first.

Marion often had to defend the power forward, so he had a lot of trouble. Lu Yuanzhi got up and collided with him, and he immediately concluded that this guy might be stronger than himself.It doesn't matter, Lu Yuanzhi won't play in low singles at this time anyway, and the slight difference in strength will not affect his offense.

Subsequently, Divac provided an off-ball screen for Lu Yuanzhi in the paint, and Gugliotta was also very smart to give up half of his body, allowing Marion to get through.

keep up!
But that's where it goes!

After Lu Yuanzhi came out of the inside, he ran in an arc again, from outside the three-point line in the bottom corner to the top of the arc. Marion was blocked by Stojakovic again.

Lu Yuanzhi finally opened up a half-length gap, and the ball quickly flew over from Weber near the free throw line.

He caught the ball and made a shooting motion, but Marion pounced at this moment.

No jump!
Lu Yuanzhi noticed the details of Marion's defensive movements. With just a pair of long arms, Marion covered his hands in front of Lu Yuanzhi's eyes.

Dry!Eat a boomerang!
Usually, Lu Yuanzhi relies on his height and long arms to use this move to defend his opponent. Unexpectedly, he also enjoyed this treatment today!

However, Lu Yuanzhi naturally did not panic. Taking advantage of Marion's unsteady footing, he accelerated rapidly and took a big step to rush inside.

As expected, Marion was still able to quickly adjust his center of gravity and steps, and got close to him immediately.

A few months ago, Lu Yuanzhi's offense would have failed and he would have returned the ball to his teammates.

But now it's different!

Lu Yuanzhi used the huge force of his forward motion to hit Marion hard, but instead of continuing forward, he suddenly used 012's footsteps to return to the three-point line.

Step back three points!
The moment Lu Yuanzhi shot a three-pointer, Marion still stayed in place and did not pounce. His mind was a little distracted.

No, what is this kid doing?
After such a fierce confrontation just now, everyone thought that he would use the forced gap to break into the basket. He also adjusted his focus and steps, hoping to continue to stick to Lu Yuanzhi.

Can he suddenly retreat to shoot from outside the three-point line?
What's going on?
Lu Yuanzhi fought against Marion several times, and finally got a chance to shoot without interference. The basketball was also very conducive, and he steadily got into the Suns' basket.

Not only Marion, but Barkley and Smith who were commentating were also stunned.

"Kenny, what did I see? What happened to that shot?"

"Don't ask me, Shaq, I've never seen this move before!"

"Yes, viewers, just now Max suddenly returned to the three-point line from the free throw line."

"We know that the free throw line is one and a half meters away from the three-point line. Lu Yuanzhi opened a distance of more than one meter in an instant, making Marion unable to defend at all!"

"Walking?"

"How is it possible? This action is so clean. Look, when he started to retreat, the ball was still in his hand. This is a normal dribbling action. Then he started to combine the ball here without moving his pivot foot, and he shot directly! "

"This kind of shot seems to be difficult to block. Even Marion, the defensive expert, can't do anything about this kind of shot."

"Then the question is, if this kind of shot is so good, Kenny, why have you outside players never tried it?"
