Chapter 684 How strong is he?(1/2)
In the second half, Li Xing's pick-and-roll and Banyani's three-pointer opened the curtain of the game.
Li Xing's defense against Embiid became more and more cruel. In the first half, he was just close combat, and receiving the ball was allowed. However, he did not even have a chance to get the ball head-on.
Before he could get stuck, Li Xing pressed his sideways.
Unless he can completely defeat Li Xing in the battle of power, the result will be just a stagnant position.
What Li Xing could do was not just get stuck, but Embiid also felt complacent when he attracted Li Xing's attention and was complacent. This sweet idea was shattered after Irving chose to break through.
Irving suddenly entered the penalty area and prepared to make a layup. Li Xing instantly let go of Embiid and spread his hands to keep Irving in the shadow all the time.
With the opponent treating each other with such defense, Irving naturally can only respond to the best offense.
He has a devilish sense of rhythm, and even if Li Xing completely controls his shooting space, he cannot control his shooting.
Irving held the ball with his right hand over his head, but suddenly recovered at the extreme height, and replaced it with one hand and hit it in.
"Good ball, Kairi!"
Even though Embiid had no scenes, he was extremely excited to see someone hitting such a ball on Li Xing's head.
As long as someone can make Li Xing defeated, he will be happy.
Inadvertently, Li Xing has been regarded as his biggest enemy in his life. Anyone who can make Li Xing sad is his ally.
No, they are allies...
“Kyrie Irving’s feel is really rare!”
"I've never seen anyone with a pair of hands as clever as him, which is definitely the most creative hands on the basketball court," Plath said.
"There is no doubt that his creativity is extremely outstanding, otherwise, coach K would not have appreciated him so much back then."
Just as Price and Smith praised Irving's sexy hand, Li Xing took the ball at a high position and said to Embiid: "Pay attention to my left hand!"
Embiid naturally would not be so stupid that he thought Li Xing was bluffing. A player of his level would never be able to rely on bluffing to scare his opponents.
Li Xing pressed his center of gravity lower than the forward who was about two meters, dribbled forward, and kept in contact with Embiid at all times.
Embiid was very familiar with this feeling, and he guessed Li Xing's purpose.
"Don't try to use hook 1"
Embiid roared in Li Xing's ear.
"I'm afraid you can't help it."
As soon as Li Xing finished speaking, he turned around, started his hand, and gently pushed his butt towards Embiid, and turned his body for half a week, just in time to test the team's basket, and he pulled the ball upwards with his left hand.
Too elegant!
Embiid also practiced hooking in private, but he asked himself that he had never done anything as beautiful as Li Xing. He really integrated Tiangu into his body and became the winning trump card in actual combat.
No, it's not just the sky hook.
Although this series has only played three games, Embiid has seen many classic tricks in Li Xing.
There seems to be no skill that he can't do.
"Bang!"
Still got scored, Embiid had nothing to say, and the goal was unsolvable.
Embiid wanted to play back, but within the free throw line, Li Xing did not give him a chance to catch the ball. If he wanted to catch the ball, he could only go to a position outside the free throw line.
Only by staying away from the basket could Li Xing let him catch the ball.
This is also Li Xing's strategy to defend him. Unless Embiid chooses to give up his own long-distance shot, he can only use all his strength to get Li Xing into position.
With Embiid's spirit, he would definitely not be willing to retreat so far to get the ball and attack. Therefore, fighting with Li Xing and fighting for himself in the most manly way is what he must do now.
The power he put in has paid off, and he got stuck.
Seeing that he finally got stuck in this position after going through a lot of hardships, his teammates were embarrassed to occupy the ball, so they had to send it out.
"I finally got the ball, you bastard! So you are so afraid that I will catch the ball?"
Embiid grabbed the ball with both hands and made up his mind to score the goal.
He rapped the racket to the ground, and the force of the collision was not very strong. On him, he could see the rhythm of the back that belonged to the inside line, and every shaking of his movement was very rhythmic.
This sense of rhythm is completely different from that of Li Xing.
Li Xing's back hit was mostly driven by his barbaric power for two or three consecutive strokes. If he dizzy the opponent, he could make unscrupulous moves.
Or if you carry the opponent's confrontation and force the action, the chance of committing a foul is also high.
It’s not that he can’t make rhythmic and non-strikes, but in terms of his body shape, the best way to hit the back is, just like O’Neal.
It's not impossible for O'Neal to use a dream dance step to shake people, but it's a shameful waste.
The same applies to Li Xing.
Embiid turned left and right, which was a shock to Li Xing, turned around and wiped the basket, and the ball entered the score.
"Tell you a truth--there must be many wormholes on the thick sugar cane poles!"
Just scored one goal, Embiid's tail was almost overwhelmed.
“OK.”
If Embiid had worked so hard and did not respond, Li Xing would not only be sorry for himself, but also for his efforts.
Therefore, Li Xing responded with a simple and rough turnover jump shot.
Still hit.
Embiid's praised defense seemed to have become ineffective air when he faced Li Xing.
Embiid was very anxious to be beaten by Li Xing. He hoped to perform well, but in the face of overwhelming strength, his resistance was like a girl who was screaming in the throat - useless.
James seemed to hear Embiid's voice, and he could not let this promising young man collapse in Li Xing's confrontation.
So he lets Embiida come out and catch the ball at the shooting point where he hits the highest percentage.
"Listen, you can do better. Don't hesitate and vote if you have the chance!"
James left this sentence in Embiid's ear, and then he passed him a quality pass.
After Embiid received the ball, he had enough space. Usually, he was ready to take action. Now, Li Xing's defense always puts pressure on him. Even if the opponent stands at a point that he cannot completely interfere with, he has no confidence in his shot.
Only when Li Xing's defense pounced in front of him did he barely push the ball out of his head.
"How can such a ball be entered?"
Not to mention the crazy rebounder who predicts this ball like Li Xing, even those who don’t usually grab rebounds can see that the ballistic power is insufficient.
Sure enough, the ball hit the front of the basket and bounced outward.
Everyone knew that this ball would not be scored, but only Li Xing clearly judged its landing point.
Embiid opened his mouth, and in front of him, Li Xing dribbled the ball like a defender and passed the half.
Such a picture undoubtedly gives people a strong visual impact.
When we are amazed by Durant's tall figure, which can ensure terrifying coordination and shooting skills; when we are amazed by the Greek monster's ability to be the point guard at the center height and play the visual sense of the Jamdo combination; you should know how shocking it is to a 220 cm giant skillfully control the ball and lead the counterattack fast attack.
Li Xing slapped the ball in his hand, and his movements did not show any awkwardness at all, as if these things were ordinary things in his eyes.
Embiid tried to foul, but was shaken away by Li Xing's back in the movement.
Then there are all roads leading to Rome, and there is an open land in front of you.
No one can stop him anymore!
The ball was not passed to anyone's hand. Li Xing grabbed the rebound himself, pushed the counterattack himself, and ended the attack with a folded dunk with both hands at the end.
The Quick Loan Center Arena has witnessed many crazy things. James' legend was opened here, but they have not witnessed Li Xing's greatness.
Because of Li Xing's peak years, they were wandering in the lottery zone, and when James returned and gave them the competitiveness of the championship again, Li Xing lay in the hospital for two more years.
It is precisely because I have never experienced it myself that the shock at this moment is so desperate.
In the eyes of the world, Embiid is already the top three inside players in the league, but compared with Li Xing, there is a big gap, and this is not even the best Li Xing.
"Rachie Lee at his peak can beat the current Rachi Lee, and even the current Rachi Lee can beat all the inside players in the league."
"So anyone knows how strong Ratch Lee is at his peak?"
Barkley asked this question.
Mark Price gave a terrifying answer: "Wait, first of all, you have to make sure that the peak of Ratch Lee we met is really his peak?"
"What if he wasn't injured?"
"What if he didn't run to play golf for a year?"
"What if he continues to study hard on basketball?"
This is undoubtedly a horrible question.
At this point, whether it is the enterprising new generation fans or the stubborn old-school fans, apart from those black fans who are envious, jealous and hateful of Li Xing and have lost their basic rationality, Li Xing is already recognized as the best player in history.
Although his honor has not completely surpassed Jordan, his dominance is unmatched throughout history.
