Chapter 555 The Protagonist
The game going to Guangzhou is the Thunder's most complete lineup in the four preseason games.Of course, this is for An Luo, Westbrook and Paul George.People like Adams, Robertson, and Kanter were not included in the big list.The reason why Donovan wants to bring his three star players is probably due to the pressure from the league and the team management.After all, in this league, there are very few team owners who don't care whether the team is profitable.Not to mention the league officials.
Sports should be pure.But in many cases, its influence is not only in one's own circle.What's more, the professional league is a combination of competition, fame and fortune.The players need more support too!
Of course, as the head coach, although Donovan can't make decisions about everything, no one can interfere with him in the formation of troops.Therefore, in this game, Westbrook and Paul George only played two symbolic quarters, and then sat on the sidelines as spectators.An Luo was not affected, and played for about [-] minutes in the third quarter.Not much, but enough for the preseason.
An Luo doesn't know many CBA players.I met a lot when I was in the national team last year, but it seems that there is not one of them in this team.It can be seen that the opponent's strength should not be considered strong in the CBA league.However, although domestic players are unfamiliar, An Luo still saw some familiar figures.For example, Maris Speights, An Luo has met several times in the game during the two years since he entered the NBA.Of course, the opponent is just a small role on the bench.There are also a few foreigners who seem to have a high status in the team, but An Luo doesn't know them.
The Long-Lions team sent a lineup of Xirelijiang, Kyle Fogg, Maris Speights, Ju Mingxin and Zhang Yongpeng.On the Thunder side are Westbrook, An Luo, Paul George, Grant and Noelle.Although I have already prepared enough mentally, when the master of ceremonies in the arena reads these names, it is still a bit unbearable to look directly at.This is probably the game with the most disparity in strength in all the preseason games this year!Even the guest commentators had to sigh: Don't watch the score for this game!
Soon, the game began.The starting players of both sides take their positions in the small circle in the middle of the field.
In the jump ball session, Noelle won easily.His physical fitness is very good, even if the opponent is taller than him.After Westbrook received the ball, Xirelijiang kept a sufficient distance from him.Everyone knows that Westbrook is not good at three-pointers, so the defense against him is almost all shots.Although compared with Westbrook, Xirelijiang is a lot worse in physical condition, but he is also a veteran, and his rich experience can well make up for his lack of physical fitness.Moreover, Xirelijiang can also be regarded as a defensive champion in the CBA.The fans are also looking forward to the confrontation between the two.
But Westbrook never thought of playing himself.After he advanced the ball to the three-point line, he handed it to An Luo.
"Ann, it's up to you!"
After saying a word lightly, he walked around the three-point line to a position close to the bottom line.Paul George on the side ran to the bottom corner and stood there coolly, without the slightest sign of wanting to score.Sure enough, Donovan was just coping.These two goods are obviously coming up for paddling.However, An Luo likes it!
Noelle pulled to the top of the arc and made a pick-and-roll for An Luo.An Luo immediately accelerated, brushing the opponent's body and rushing to the inside line.Kyle Fogg lost his defense against An Luo after being blocked.He could only shout behind Noelle: "Switch, switch! Stop him!"
But it doesn't help.Zhang Yongpeng's speed is too slow for An Luo!While walking, An Luo exerted a slight force on his left foot, twisted his whole body to the right, and then continued to exert force on his right foot, throwing the opponent away all at once.Speights' defense is not slow.When An Luo threw off Kyle Fogg, he began to lean towards the basket.But he was still a little worse.After arriving in the CBA, due to the changes in his role in the team, the active defensive habits he had developed in the Warriors were gradually worn away.
An Luo threw the ball onto the backboard before Speights pounced.After clicking on the European step, An Luo found that when he was advancing with the ball, he could do many changes of direction that he could not do before.It has to be said that many potential changes are no less helpful to the game than those fixed actions.
The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the hoop.There was another loud cheer in the arena.
Looking back, Kyle Fogg of the Dragons and Lions runs the offense with the ball.An Luo stood in front of Kyle Fogg, a little speechless.Although the opponent is playing the second position, An Luo can tell that this guy should be more suitable to play point guard.What he didn't know was that Kyle Fogg was originally a point guard.It's just that after joining Guangzhou Longshi, he changed to shooting guard.This is actually quite normal. In the current basketball concept, the position on the court has become very blurred.Coupled with the fact that Kyle Fogg's physical fitness is considered very good in the CBA, there is no problem playing the second position.What's more, the score can better reflect the value of their foreign aid.
But now he met An Luo.An NBA All-Star shooting guard who is stronger than him in terms of physical condition, speed and strength.In an instant, the breakthroughs and long-range shots that Kyle Fogg relied on for his survival in the CBA were useless.It became very uncomfortable for him to hold the ball beyond the three-point line, and he had to pass the ball.But An Luo would not give him that chance.The excellent wingspan allows An Luo to cover a large space around Kyle Fogg.In addition, his purpose is to force the opponent to pass the ball, so at the moment Kyle Fogg dialed the ball, An Luo made a shot.
He pressed his body forward, and at the same time slapped his right hand on the basketball that Kyle Fogg dialed out.Then the whole person shot out like an arrow that left the string.Kyle Fogg chased after gritted his teeth, his speed was really fast.Finally caught up with An Luo near the free throw line.But what greeted him was far more cruel than staying where he was.
After An Luo rushed to the free throw line, he exerted force on his feet, kicked two steps forward, and the whole person rose into the air.Hold the ball in your right hand and stretch it out in the air.Kyle Fogg already regretted his behavior of catching up at this time.But now he can only watch An Luo fly above his head, and then dunk the ball into the basket!
