God of basketball

Chapter 151 0148: [I miss you, positive energy]

Although Kobe Bryant tried his best to advocate in front of the camera after the game that "Bruce is definitely a ruthless character, he will become the new answer among point guards".

However, Bruce still failed to make media headlines that night.

Even when he passed Baron Davis and scored the decisive goal, the 'man-ball pass' shot was only ranked second among the five best goals.

Because... Portland Trail Blazers No. 7 pick Brandon Roy is too strong.

He scored 36 points in the away game against the Timberwolves and completed a textbook lore.

The University of Washington senior played rock-bottom in his first preseason game in the NBA, putting Minnesota rookie Randy Foye to shame.

同时，36分6助攻6篮板2抢断1封盖的超级数据也让布鲁斯的9分15助攻3篮板2抢断变成弟弟。

What the media likes to talk about the most is that his lore shot was completed on Kevin Garnett's head.At that time, the Wolf King kept talking trash in his ears, but when the whistle sounded, the basketball went through the hoop.

At that time, Garnett, the trash talker, shut down.

The stunned expression of his slightly open mouth has become the front page headlines of countless media.Some media even deliberately matched the headline that made the wolf king depressed: the super rookie stuffed KG's mouth with a 'lore'.

Look at the Wolf King, then look at Baron Davis.

"No cards."

Even Eddie Griffin was complaining: "If you killed Kevin Garnett last night, you'd be in the news."

Li Zhen was unusually calm. He was doing simple weight-bearing leapfrogs in the corridor of the hotel in Sartmento.

He didn't relax his training volume for a moment.

In fact, he didn't stop on the special plane to Satmento last night. He kept training small muscle groups with simple dumbbells: this made Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant very happy. They both like this kind of hard-working players.

But in fact, at this moment, Li Zhen just wanted to sweat out his talents, even though he performed quite well last night.But the confrontation with Baron Davis made him realize how obvious his shortcomings are.

Interestingly, when Baron Davis was interviewed after the game, he did not admit defeat generously. He just emphasized: "We didn't study him enough, we underestimated the enemy."

And claimed: "His actual confrontation ability is very weak. The Lakers dare not let him stay on the court for a long time, because he will become a loophole on the court."

As for Stephen Jackson, he even felt that differences of opinion did not conspire with each other.

"I don't like him. He has the arrogance of an educated youth. He always says those high-sounding words. He must know that the NBA is a place full of confrontation, and his book principles are not suitable for this place. If he wants to gain a foothold in the NBA, he must be mentally prepared to be black elbowed by others."

Forehead….

When Li Zhen saw Stephen Jackson speaking on TV, he was actually a little dumbfounded: These two big gangsters think I'm cowardly, don't they?I'm actually protecting you, don't you feel that something is wrong with your body?

Therefore, in some media, there are even voices criticizing Bruce.

This made Li Zhen feel depressed: How could it be as if we had lost the game.Can't we be more objective?

Fortunately...the media in Los Angeles has begun to turn around, and most of the media have praised Li Zhen.Some media even compared Li Zhen with Magic Johnson, the number one point guard in team history.

Although the result of the comparison is that Bruce is still far behind, everyone thinks that Bruce's passing skills are very similar to that of a magician, and he is even better than the magician in the ability to quickly transfer the ball.

……

In the game against the Satmento Kings, Li Zhen still only played 16 minutes.

The opponent he faced in this game was Mike Bibby. Although Bibby claimed in an interview with the Chinese media before the game that he had one-eighth of Chinese blood, he would definitely entertain Bruce Lee well.

But on the court, the White Devil is not relentless.

The strong defender pressed hard from the start, causing Bruce to fall twice in less than 30 seconds on the pitch.

But after two times, Bruce gradually found the knack of entangled with Mike Bibby.He commands less with the ball and more runs.Helped the Lakers with cunning moves and quick passes, and sometimes had a flash of inspiration. When the Kings switched defenses, a gorgeous crossover knocked center Brad Miller to the ground and scored a layup.

In the end, Bruce's transcript was 6 points, 9 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal.

Although it was not as eye-catching as the first game, it was quite satisfactory and there were many bright spots.

To the ecstasy of the Lakers fans, the cooperation between Bruce Lee and Bryant turned out to be a perfect match.When Kobe Bryant plays singles with the ball, Bruce's position is like Robin next to Batman. His quick and clever passes have benefited Eddie Griffin, Kwame Brown, Radmanovich, Lamar Odom...etc.

When he was on the court, the Lakers' efficiency rating was off the charts.

When he was off the court, the Lakers immediately went back to their old ways.

"His value is far beyond the data."

That's why Phil Jackson answered reporters like this after the game.

Interestingly, though.After the Kings lost this game, Ron Artest, who didn't play, spoke out. This good brother who was beaten with Stephen Jackson at the Palace of Auburn Hills had a similar opinion. He thought Bruce was not 'tough' enough and always avoided playing.

"This is a trick. I don't like Kenny Smith's 'Be-water' argument. Fighting is fighting, and the barbell plates in the gym never lie. When I meet him in the next game, I will definitely let him understand what it means to be strong!"

His call added another heavyweight to the 'clean up the blues' list.

Li Zhen doesn't know why so many players want to target him, thinking I'm easy to bully?

Do you think stepping on me can make you famous?

Li Chen sneered at the corner of his mouth, with arrogance in his heart.

Anyway, he doesn't refuse anyone.No matter what the purpose of these people was, no matter whether they came here openly or engaged in some shady tricks, he accepted them all.

After playing the game with the Kings, the Lakers went to Texas and experienced the baptism of the top three in Texas.

Not surprisingly, three consecutive losses.

Even if everyone played in the preseason, the strong fighting power shown by the Spurs and Mavericks still surpassed the Lakers.

In San Antonio, Bruce played 15 minutes and scored 9 points and 5 assists.The reason why his assists were so few in this game was because the Spurs' defense was too tight, and he couldn't use his kung fu when he saw every stitch.

But what's interesting is that after the game, Popovich also specially praised Li Zhen.He commented that Li Zhen is a young version of Ginobili plus Tony Parker. "He has Tony's speed, Manu's spirituality, and a unique sense of rhythm and overall situation. Of course, he also has a worse shooting than Tony's back then, and a more troublesome confrontation ability and physical reserve than Manu. I can't predict what he will look like in the future, but I don't think there is any problem with the Lakers' trade this summer. If it were me, I would do the same."

In addition to Popovich's praise, Manu Ginobili also expressed his appreciation. He never forgot about Bruce's pass across the court in the third quarter: "He has all the prerequisites to become a passing master. Now he only needs to practice physical confrontation. Of course, while increasing his strength, he must also maintain his current flexibility and speed."

Ginobili mentioned a very critical point.

This made Bruce seem to realize something.

He waited for the positive energy to wake up and asked a crucial question.

In Dallas and Houston, Bruce's performance was mediocre.Because Kobe Bryant broke out in these two games.

I don't know why, as long as Kobe plays these two teams, he will be extraordinarily active, even in the preseason.In Dallas, he sold 32 times and scored 43 points.In Houston, he sold 32 times and scored 42 points.

Neither was very efficient, so both games were lost.

Li Zhen's greatest achievement in these two games may be that he went to Yao's Restaurant to eat an unauthentic Chinese meal, and gained 2 points of agility from the Dallas center, making his agility reach 70.

At that time, he broke through to the penalty area many times in a row and made assists under Dampier's nose.This made Dampier very resentful, but helpless.

Finally, Bruce got his chance for revenge when he drove into the lane for a layup, and he knocked Li Zhen out of the air with a completely unnecessary physical confrontation.

Then the Lakers stopped the game, and then pressed Li Zhen to the bench, not allowing him to take the risk of playing again.

But at this time, Li Zhen's biggest question is: Why did I add agility from Dampier, a center forward?Wouldn't it be more appropriate to increase the strength?

Looking at Dampier who was knocked down by the black mamba on the court, Li Zhen was puzzled.

He felt that his physical talent was showing a strong Matthew effect. The strong ones got stronger, and the weak ones didn't get weaker, but lying down and staying still was not an option.

……

With the end of Houston's China Derby, the Lakers return to Los Angeles, they will end the 06-07 preseason after two home games.

What's interesting is that Li Zhen's first opponent back home was the Timberwolves rookie Randy Foye who had been targeting him since the draft training camp.

Although Randy Foye was badly cleaned up by Brandon Roy in his preseason debut.

But he is still full of confidence in the upcoming Bruce. He announced to the media three days ago: "I will soon reveal the true colors of that kid at the Staples Arena in front of everyone in Los Angeles. He will be easily destroyed by me."

He unilaterally made a lot of noise because Kevin Garnett was also behind him to help him: "Randy Foye is indeed a rare talent. He shouldn't be selected in such a late position. I think he is looking for Bruce to prove himself. I also firmly believe that he will win this matchup. Wait and see!"

The media began to frantically hype the news that Randy Foye broke the third show of parallel imports.

This annoyed Bruce, who wasn't interested in seeing his name in the paper.In fact, before Randy Foye made the news, he had been swiping the screen in the entertainment media.

Since Ashley publicly admitted that she likes Bruce, some media have been teasing Lindsay Lohan.Because Lindsay Lohan has also expressed similar things, and she has also collaborated with Bruce on the Billboard champion single.

"Double Star and Ashley are both pretending to be aloof. They relied on signing Bruce's contract to do whatever they want, but they actually rejected my song invitation to Bruce because they felt that my image was not healthy enough."

"It's clearly jealousy, a concern that I've had too much contact with Bruce. Ashley is a woman who has no confidence in herself, even though she looks glamorous."

Lindsay Lohan rants about Ashley in front of the media.And also emphasized: "I will go to Bruce personally, and he will make the right choice."

This has the Hollywood media looking forward to Bruce's return to Los Angeles from Texas even more than the sports media.

But Li Zhen felt a headache, he didn't know why Lindsay Lohan suddenly ran out.Didn't he already cut off contact with her and even blocked all her mobile phones?

Ashley told him the answer over the phone: "She was in West Hollywood last weekend, driving a Mercedes and crashing into a van. Although she herself claimed that the accident was to avoid the paparazzi. The police suspect that the accident was caused by her drunken driving. She is currently in a period of intense negative news. She desperately needs some extra news to divert the focus, so she approached us and wanted us to do a song with him. But we turned her down, and then she started trolling the media."

Li Zhen was very annoyed by this, thinking that this woman really used me as a shield.

"If she bothers you, I will help you solve her." Ashley said forcefully on the other end of the phone, and comforted Li Zhen: "You just need to concentrate on dealing with the challenge of that black player."

Maybe it's the luck that Ashley brings.

After Bruce hung up the phone, he did ten push-ups. As soon as sweat appeared on his forehead, he heard the voice of positive energy bursting out of his head: Congratulations...

Damn, I miss you so much! !
