NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 304 Westbrook's Qualitative Change
Simply rest, and the two sides will fight again.

Continue to use the lineup of the first quarter.

Ayton emphasized again: "Ball, give me the ball."

Paul gave him a dissatisfied look, and cursed inwardly, saying once is enough, why keep talking.

After scolding, Paul's ghostly hand still delivered the ball to Ayton steadily.

Ayton was also very competitive, facing the Lakers double-teaming, he scored the ball toughly.If he can keep doing this, he will be hard enough at critical moments, so why not get the maximum salary.

The critical moment is not necessarily the last moment, and the beginning of each quarter is equally critical.

Munch drove a sports car and cooperated with Westbrook in the pick-and-roll. He had never run so well. Facing the Twin Towers, his pick-and-roll was easy to handle, and soon hit a three-pointer again.

Ayton dominated the basket again, this time he pushed the defender away and dunked against an empty basket.

Ayton hadn't celebrated yet, and when he turned around, Westbrook caught the baseline ball and rushed to halftime.

The Lakers' five juniors all ran at high speed. Ayton and McGee desperately ran back to the half court, and Westbrook had already hit the board.

The Suns lowered their tempo and resolutely hit their own shots. They didn't believe that the Lakers could be so accurate outside.

Paul holds the ball to press time, but he doesn't need to press time. He is to let Ayton and McGee take a breather.

The big man is running at both ends of the offense and defense like this, and it will not work after running for a few rounds.

This is the details, which is the reason why he can still occupy the first point guard when his physical fitness is not particularly outstanding.

Although this first is debatable, because Curry is also a point guard, but Curry is actually 1.5, and he is more inclined to a shooting guard.

Ayton slumped in the paint, and his big butt pushed Tucker back again and again. Tucker's lower body strength is also very strong, and his wingspan is as high as 217, but he still can't prevent Ayton
His lower body strength is just strong, not enough for Ayton to bounce back.

He has the wingspan, but the reaction speed is not enough to effectively interfere with Ayton's ball handler.

This kind of ball, if he is caught by Ayton without going around the front, he is basically hit for nothing.

If he goes forward, Paul is very good at passing behind, so he basically has no solution to defend Ayton.

Ayton pushed him away, and the Lakers' double-teams had no time to react, and Ayton had dunked the ball in.

Seeing that Ayton won three yuan in a row, Paul started acting like a demon again, and said to Menghua: "This is an assist, and this is why you get a million-dollar contract, but I have a billion-dollar contract."

In his career, Paul has signed three billion-dollar contracts.

和快船签过5年上亿合同，和火箭签过4年1.6亿合同，今年更是和太阳签下4年1.2亿合同。

Three teams, three billion-dollar contracts, this is the reward for his hard work, and he deserves these contracts.

But you are a veteran, comparing contracts with rookies, this is a bit bullying.

Meng Hua said with a smile: "Thank you for your encouragement. The people who got hundreds of millions of contracts are not as good as me. Then I will be able to get hundreds of millions of contracts in the future."

Paul smirked.

Coming to the frontcourt, Meng Hua ran without the ball, but had no chance, so he had to turn around and run in the opposite direction.

Sometimes when you run out of opportunities, your teammates may not be able to pass the ball.

But Meng Hua never complained, and would only work harder to keep running.

When he turned around, he suddenly found that Paul's body fell backwards.

Fuck!He's going to dive.

The Suns are at home, worried that the referee would be fooled by him, and Meng Hua subconsciously fell back.

Pfft!
The two fell to one side. Before that, only the air had touched them.

The referee was stunned, and there was this showy operation.

Paul heard that there was no whistle, and quickly got up, spreading his hands, seemingly dissatisfied.

Meng Hua, who escaped by his reaction, also got up and continued to run.

Forget about small moves, and even flop, this kid has too many tricks.

Westbrook played singles with the ball, pushed it to the elbow area, and closed the ball if he was worried about double-teaming, twisting his buttocks. This time Bridges defended very strictly.

Westbrook passed to Rivers.

Rivers didn't hesitate and directly offered a three-pointer.

The ball is in.

Rivers raised his arms and shouted, extremely excited.

The Lakers bench, you see me, I see you, I don't understand why he is so frizzy for this unusual goal, it's not like his calm and low-key style.

Rivers even protested against Meng Hua.

Meng Hua was also confused, brother, did I provoke you?Haven't I been fighting Paul?
Seeing that Meng Hua didn't respond, Rivers couldn't help but said, "Hua, I won, have you forgotten our bet? Remember to give me two hundred dollars, or I'll spank your ass."

Meng Hua looked at him like a fool: "Are you sick? I scored a three-pointer in the first quarter, and you lost."

"Really?" Rivers obviously didn't believe it, "When did you enter, don't try to lie to me."

Meng Hua shook his head, didn't bother to talk to him anymore, and continued to stare at Paul.

Paul was his white... no... black moon.

Seeing Meng Hua approaching, Paul simply stopped in the Logo area.

"Boy, your diving is very good, you can learn it without a teacher."

"You gain as much as you sow. I have at least studied your flops hundreds of times before I can achieve what I am today."

Paul laughed, from the heart.

He doesn't think flopping is a shameful act. On the contrary, he believes that it is an art to properly punish opponents by flopping.

Of course, like the flop he and Meng Hua had when they touched the air just now, it was an exaggeration.

Most of the time, the opponent actually touches him, and he slams to the ground, getting the referee's attention and grabbing the whistle.

Paul laughed halfway, and changed his direction to make a breakthrough, almost changing his face when he said it.

Fortunately, Meng Hua reacted quickly and basically covered Paul beyond the three-point line.

Paul didn't intend to break through, because Tucker went around to defend, and Ayton had already stuck him to catch the ball.

Whatever ball you catch, you can directly give the alley-oop to labor and management. Paul raised his hand and the ball flew into the air.

This kind of passing is art.

Ayton took off directly and dunked the basket alley-oop.

Westbrook received the baseline ball and sped up again. This time Paul had already taken precautions and intercepted him halfway to buy time for his teammates to return to defense.

Seeing no chance, Westbrook slowed down.

In the past, he was only fast, but now he is occasionally slow, always with a rhythm, and the opponent can easily adapt.

Only when it is fast and sometimes slow can the opponent be hard to guard against, just like certain things.

Westbrook began to observe his teammates, learn from James' methods, and try to get every teammate involved.

This time, he motioned for Tucker to come up and cover.

The two men with the most inaccurate three-pointers got together.

Tucker blocked and went down, and he cut outside without threat.

Westbrook didn't pass the ball, and took advantage of Ayton's messy footsteps to rush to the basket.

Johnson, who was defending Tucker, rushed towards Westbrook fiercely. He was a substitute and had plenty of physical strength.

Westbrook dodged in the air. He knew that Ayton would definitely chase after him. After dodging, he received the ball again and passed it to Tucker from a small angle.

Tucker received the ball from the basket and hit the board directly to score without stopping.

Vogel was stunned. Is this Westbrook's strength?
After a season of integration, Westbrook failed to integrate into the Lakers, and now he is alive.

Is it really because he doesn't have enough possessions?
Vogel was lost in thought.
