NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 242 Valanciunas is deflated

Westbrook controlled the ball, faked past McCollum, and was held down by Varan when he hit the inside.

Tat for tat, Varan regained face, even if the opponent was not Meng Hua.

The Lakers' insiders were turned upside down. The home fans frequently interacted with him.

Ingram got the ball and dribbled through halftime, and he also chose to feed Varan.

Since McCollum arrived in the Pelicans, Ingram's statistics have dropped a lot, but the ball has become more and more reasonable.

This is the role of veteran mentoring.

Back then, everyone thought Paul was useless. He just brought a bad team into the playoffs, and almost everywhere he went, he would train a good point guard.

Varan received the ball, tested his back twice, made a fake shoulder shaking to the right, and then turned around to release the ball, trying to hit the bottom line from the right.

He thought he turned around as quickly as a cheetah, but in Meng Hua's eyes, it was like slow motion.

If this kind of breakthrough can surpass Meng Hua, he will not be valued by Vogel.

Meng Hua guarded the pass like a rock.

Varan rushed to a wall and was forced to stop.

Then shoot directly, facing this kind of short, if the center has range, the best way is to hold high and hit high.

Lift the ball up, aim slowly, and see if you jump or not.

Jump, turn around, avoid your claws, and keep aiming.

Don't jump, aim directly for three seconds, and then shoot.

Varane collects the ball and prepares to lift it from his knees to his head.

Snapped!
I thought too much, and raised it to the top of my head, but before it reached my waist, the ball was knocked off.

Meng Hua struck quickly, like a ghost, cutting off the ball in his hand.

Varan didn't even see clearly whether Meng Hua's hand was right or left.

Anyway, it's all about touching the ball. For Meng Hua, there is no difference between the left hand and the right hand, they are both flexible.

Seeing that Varan missed, the Pelicans retreated violently, and quickly organized a defensive formation in the half court to prevent the Lakers from switching offense and defense.

Before going on the court, head coach Willie Green deliberately emphasized that he would do everything possible to prevent the Lakers from switching offense and defense.

In the Lakers formation, James and Westbrook are both masters of fast breaks and transitions.

As long as you restrain the opponent's attack and force them to fight every time, the victory will be closer and closer.

James held the ball at the top of the arc, read the Pelicans' defense, and kept doing multiple-choice questions in his mind.

Unexpected Ingram?This can be done, but it's a bit exhausting.

Pick and roll with Westbrook?The two are the brains of the team, and it is better to stand on the strong side and the weak side respectively.

Pick and roll with Rivers?Jones' defense is full of energy and is extremely aggressive, not as good as Graham in singles.

Call Monk?Hayes is also very young, tall and long arms.

It seems that playing pick-and-roll with Meng Hua is the best choice, Varan's speed and rhythm can't prevent him at all.

James twisted his orchid fingers and called Meng Hua.

Meng Hua moved from the bottom line to the up-line screen, then moved three steps laterally, looked back at the moon, and made a posture of catching the ball.

The Pelicans did not dare to neglect, Ingram and Varan switched defenses immediately.

James played big with small, trained Varan on the outside, turned around and broke through, and rushed into the penalty area for dunks.

Varan has strength and weight, and he has the speed that Varan does not have, so Varan can't stop his breakthrough at all.

James' dunk was beautiful, and he also received boos from the audience for the thick eyebrows.

The thick eyebrows were replaced, and the Pelicans fans lost the target of booing, and whoever played well would naturally boo.

McCollum holds the ball, he still wants to play Varane.

Varan has scored 9 points and is in good form. Although Meng Hua broke two, I believe he can overcome it.

Varane was smart, and this time, he asked for the ball deep.

He has a broad waist and a wide and thick body, which makes it easy for him to get stuck in position and get the ball.

After receiving the ball, he wanted to turn around and dunk, but he couldn't turn around. The wall behind him was airtight.

Varan had no choice but to let the ball go. This time he was very cautious, his thick body firmly stuck Meng Hua, preventing him from stealing the ball.

The muscles of the two collided, and there was a loud crackling sound.

Varan wanted to turn around easily, but he couldn't.

With such a deep position, Meng Hua had no way to prevent him from catching the ball, so he could only strictly prevent him from turning around. To be precise, he was not allowed to turn around easily and catch the next move.

Varan turned left and right, there was no space, so he simply took a step back and shot.

Since the coach said that he is like Dirk, he will naturally be independent in that way.

His speed is too slow, playing in front of Meng Hua for so long, his intentions have long been exposed.

He is like a beautiful woman who is followed in the dark.

The beauty walked quickly, hoping to get rid of the pursuit behind her.

She ran to the entrance of the alley and looked around, not knowing whether to go left or right, but there seemed to be no one behind her, so she calmed down a little.

The wind blew, blowing up her skirt, and the stalker quietly covered up...

Snapped!
Like an eagle, Meng Hua soared into the sky, and rushed to Varan, who was leaning back, firmly holding the ball in his hand.

The two landed one after the other, grabbing the ball on the ground immediately.

Varan lost the air fight, how did he win the floor fight?

Meng Hua relayed James and felt boos from the audience.

I remember that Westbrook once said that booing is also a kind of respect. At that time, he was referring to the fans of his own team. This is also applicable to the fans of the opponent.

Meng Hua grabbed the ball and was about to pass it to Westbrook, but Ingram pounced smartly and immediately destroyed the Lakers' offense.

Worried that the ball would be broken, Meng Hua had no choice but to take control of the ball first, and then look for others.

The teammates have already rushed to the frontcourt. If Ingram intercepts the ball in this position, it is tantamount to sending points.

This is absolutely unbearable for him who regards defense as his top priority.

He can pass the ball upfield, but he won't take a single risk in the backcourt.

Meng Hua protected the ball, and Ingram slowed down the Lakers' offense. The two took what they needed, both showed contented expressions, and went their separate ways.

As soon as he arrived at the midfield, there was the curse of "Meng Gou", and the accent was that fat man.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with being a dog. In some things, dogs even have advantages over humans.

But judging from the fat man's tone, it was obviously an insulting term.

Fans are more difficult to deal with than players. Since there is Thalia who likes him, he must accept fat people who don't like him.

Likes are long-lasting, and it only takes a while to be sprayed, let him scold.

Comforting himself in his heart, after dribbling through the midfield and looking at the basket, Meng Hua suddenly had the desire to shoot.

Impulse is the devil, impulse is the devil.

Looking at James not far away, he still held back and passed the ball to James.

Maybe the ball will go in, but that's not how it's played.

If a shot is really made, James will spread his hands regardless of whether the ball is scored or not.

Meng Hua sank to the bottom line and attracted Varan's defense. He was trying to do the same, and mentioned that he would go up the line to cover James and give him a chance to single Varan.

James has already made a shot. After receiving the ball, he dribbled a step, faced Ingram, and pulled directly.

This is what Li guides often do.

But James is not a good guide.

Bang!
The ball slammed into the front of the basket, and Varan's data increased again.

Just looking at this offensive choice, Meng Hua was very dissatisfied. He might as well shoot by himself, and he wouldn't be so loud when he hit the iron.

But I can't say anything, James has privileges.

He cannot be required to be a textbook for all rounds. He is a human being, not a machine.
