With a three-pointer and 30 points, Li Ke achieved a milestone. Of course, he didn't want this milestone to turn into a milestone.
Therefore, when he returned to the defensive end, seeing that McGrady was still huddled on the bench, Li Ke decided to call McGrady back.
"Yao's mid-range ball, Oh my God, Sheldon just grabbed it..."
Yao Yao was in a high position to support him, and Li Ke suddenly grabbed him and everyone ate a pound, including the two head coaches off the court.
Sam Vincent wanted to spread his hands, but he didn't let Li Ke be so defensive. He was very nervous when he looked at the empty stick Wells.
Rick Adelman's old heart burst, and he felt the crisis.
"Li Ke directly assisted in defense. He and Okafu clamped Yao..."
Director Zhang became inexplicably excited again. Although Yu Jia beside him was a little more restrained, he also excitedly stretched out his squinting eyes.
Yao Yao, who grabbed basketball with both hands, suddenly felt very uncomfortable. To be honest, although Yao Yao is a phenomenal star center, he has many shortcomings, such as always exhausting his energy in the first three quarters, and then he is always very sluggish in the fourth quarter.
For example, when facing the attack, he was very at a loss. He didn't know whether to take action or pass the ball out.
While hesitating, the Rockets' offense has already stopped.
This is obviously not what Adelman wants to see, and he stood on the sidelines and shouted: "Pass the ball!"
So, Yao Ming passed the ball, and the ball was not fast and had a clear intention... Li Ke made a move straight and snapped!
"Yao's pass was cut off, he was too hesitant!"

"Sheldon has already controlled the basketball, and it is now the time for the Bobcats to fight back!"
He fought back, and the speed was fast and he was already a little panicked. He hurriedly retreated, but he was slower and further away.
Then, he could only look at Li Ke's back leaping high from outside the three-point line, and amid the exclamations of the audience, the basketball was thrown out...
"Chasing for three points!"
Swish!
The scoreboard jumped sharply, 87 to 93!
"The Charlotte Bobcats are leading by 6 points!"
Off the court, Sam Vincent jumped high, then hit the palm of his assistant Xiao Gouba beside him, and the victory is in sight. This game!
Rick Adelman was a little hesitant, and then he would change back to McGrady?
While hesitating, he did not call out a timeout, but allowed the game to continue.
Raf Alstone quickly controlled the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, and then Yao Yao appeared at the high position again. Without adjustment, the center at the high position was still supporting him.
Then, Li Ke copied it and put it on again.
"Li Ke is hitting a heavy blow against the seniors of the national team!"
Looking at Yao's retracted, Yu Jia felt a little funny.
That's right, Li Ke punched the senior Yao, hard. He knew Yao's weaknesses and knew how to deal with Yao Yao without McGrath being present.
So, the Rockets' Princeton offense stopped again.
Yao Yao's pass was very decisive, but it was useless. Because the Rockets' tactical system was forced, they suddenly became headless flies, and Raf Alstom barely broke through and missed the mid-range throw.
Boss Hua grabbed the rebound and shouted: "Counterattack!"
On the Rockets' bench, Rick Adelman had already called McGrady.
But on the field, the Bobcats had already counterattacked, and Gerald Wallace rushed to the frontcourt quickly and dunked!
87 to 95! The lead is 87 points, and the balance of victory has gradually tilted towards the Charlotte Bobcats...
A beep!
"It's a substitution, Trisy is on the court, and the Rockets are going to fight to the death."
After the timeout, Li Ke met McGrady again, and he had no way to double-team Yao.
With McDiller's space open, Princeton's offensive system reopened.
After the high-level pass and cut cooperation, Yao Yao made a mid-range jump shot.
The Rockets finally scored.
"89 to 95, the Rockets scored 2 points. The current 6-point fall is not fatal to them. After all, there are still 9 minutes left before the end of the game..."
With enough time, Li Ke is not ready to give his opponent any chance.
He said that he likes to win.
If you still can't win a game where Xiao Du Guai was at the peak, then I'm sorry for the efforts of the whole game.
Feidun controlled the ball through half the game, and Li Ke went around to the top of the arc, leaned against Sean Bathir, who was defending him with his back, and stretched out his hand.
"It's another back-to-back single, Sheldon suddenly gave up on the ball, he is going to kill the suspense of this game!"
The mid-range shot kills the game, which is a theory that many people unanimously agree on, and Li Ke also believes so.
After receiving the ball, he rolled two steps on his back, then turned over and jumped, stared at Bathier's thick and long palms, and shot the basketball out.
Swish!
"The ball went in, 89 to 97, and the score gap widened again to 8 points!"
Back at the defensive end, Li Ke shouted: "Defense and defense!"
The mid-range shot kills the game is actually based on defense. If the opponent can score goals without defense, you can't beat the opponent with one goal or one goal.
Therefore, defense is the top priority.
Li Ke wants to keep an eye on McGrady. McGrady at the last moment is different from McGrady at other times, and it is vivid in my mind at 35 seconds and 13 seconds.
But on the Bobcats, Boss Hua’s defensive task is not heavy, because his opponent is Chuck Hayes.
Seeing Yao Yao get the ball again, Boss Hua directly grabbed it.
"Gerard Wallace has learned it when he attacks Yao Ming!"
In the middle of the defense, Yao Ming passed the ball, McDou went out to catch the ball, and against Li Ke's defense, he directly made a mid-range shot.
With a clang, it didn't enter.
Back at the basket, Okafu stuck Hai Ye's back, and Fei Dun rushed in and picked up the rebound. Then there was a shout of "counterattack and counterattack" sounded on the court.
The Bobcats rushed to the frontcourt like a tide, and the only one who fell behind was Okafor.
The Rockets retreated quickly, and only Yao could not keep up.
It seemed that the counterattack was about to fail, and Li Ke from the middle lane reached out again.
"Backed back, Sheldon reached out and received the ball. He came under his crotch, which looked a little crappy, but he still passed Sean Bathier and made another mid-range jump shot..."
Swish!
"I'm in!"
"The second mid-range shot was 89 to 99, 10 points!"
The Rockets' offense, facing the Bobcats whose intensity had increased to the highest in the last moment, their Princeton offense still failed to find a gap. Yao Yao made a mid-range shot, but with a bang, he didn't make it.
This time, the competition for rebounds was a little messed up. Hai Ye had already got the rebound, but his subsequent tip-in was slapped away by Boss Hua who arrived.
Then there was a chaotic scramble.
By the time Li Ke fully mastered the basketball, most of the Rockets' players had retreated to the backcourt.
If there is no counterattack, then continue to fight back!
"Here comes again, Sheldon's back hit!"
In this game, President Bahrain's single defense against Li Ke was obviously not successful, but Rick Adelman was also helpless. McGrady defended Li Ke, and he also saw it at the beginning of the game.
In this game, Li Ke's condition is that everyone is defending the same.
It would be better to let Bathil go to defend and liberate McGrady.
Although, McGrady, who was liberated, failed to achieve results on the offensive end.
"With the back, Sheldon turned over and jumped again!"
Swish!
"I made another move, with the third consecutive mid-range shot, and the Charlotte Bobcats are already 12 points ahead."
"Sheldon Lee's mid-range shot is killing this game."
Can't defend...
Rick Adelman sighed secretly. On the other side, Sam Vincent was very excited to conquer and conquer! They all knelt down and sang conquer for me!
To be honest, he really didn't expect the Bobcats to have a chance to win the Halloween War, after all, the opponent is the Rockets.
What is the Rockets' level? Yao and Mai combined, one of the pseudo-strong teams that made it to the playoffs last year.
What is the level of a bobcat? It’s better not to mention it!
But now, they do have a chance to win this victory, or to be precise, they are only half a quarter away from the victory of this game.
...
Seven minutes later, when Li Ke hit his seventh mid-range shot since McGrady's appearance, the score had become 95:111, and the game was less than three minutes left.
Rick Adelman called out a timeout, McGrady, Yao Ming, and Raf Alstom, one by one sat on the bench.
"It's timed up, the Rockets should have given up this game. Tracy almost played the first three quarters. Yao's physical condition has not been outstanding. They are exhausted, and the 16-point score gap makes them unable to see hope of a comeback."
"Sheldon's mid-range shot killed this game!"
Barkley in the commentary seat found it incredible.
"From Tracy's appearance to this timeout, in 8 minutes, she scored 7 mid-range shots, Sheldon's performance was so good, I even forgot that he was still a rookie."
"Charles, Sheldon played back-to-body singles for 8 minutes. Do you have no idea at all?"
When the end of a game was already destined, Kenny Smith began to find some other topics.
"What?"
Barkley hadn't reacted yet.
"Think about Sheldon's back-to-back push, think about his accurate CET, think about yourself, hey, Charles, it's time to create a successor for yourself, Sheldon is just right!"
“…”
Although Charles Barkley did not answer and Kenny Smith's original intention was just a joke, when he turned around, he found that Barkley seemed to be thinking seriously.
In front of the TV, Jordan immediately felt a sense of crisis as he listened to Kenny Smith and Barkley's discussion.
He is different from the two people in the commentator's seat. He knows very well: Sheldon was just in a big state in this game, and Sheldon's real back-to-door singles skills still have a long way to go.
So, is Sheldon the successor of Jordan or Barkley?
Boss Qiao felt that as long as Buckley's ugly back, it would be better not to come to Charlotte to teach the Bobcats the cornerstone of the future.
Sheldon Lee, the precious genius, should be taught by him personally!
"Tim, in two days, Sheldon's training, I will also participate."
"You're going to restart the breakfast club? Are you going to make a comeback?"
Tim Graver obviously misunderstood what Boss Joe meant.
Boss Qiao's face was full of dark lines: "No, I don't attend the breakfast club and I won't come back. I'm just going to teach Sheldon myself."
"Back on your back?"
"uh-huh!"
...
On the court, the timeout ended, and Li Ke sat on the bench.
When a game is at the last moment, the side behind replaces all the main players, and the substitute can only replace all the main players. This is the hidden rule of the NBA.
On the court, Lao Du got plenty of playing time, and his opponent was Bang Wells.
Louis Scola also faced his substitute Walter Hermann in the national team, and the Argentine Civil War began.
Li Ke was bored, but he didn't want to imitate others to hide his expression and eyes by hanging white towels. He could only pull Fei Dun beside him and chatted.
"Raymond, what kind of service does the place you often go to with Jared?"
“What service?”
Fei Dun pretended to be stupid, and Li Ke directly photographed him.
"Don't pretend!"
"Hehe." Fei Dun scratched his head, "That was just a strip club. Of course there was no service, but if you need it, you can talk to the stripper in private..."
Li Ke nodded. He was curious and didn't want to do anything.
So, he replied: "What can I need."
He was really just curious because he knew that in the whole of America, the only one who legally prostitutes was legal.
This is also the reason why American rich people like to run to Las Vegas. There are two legal ones here.
The game soon came to an end with a boring and poor success rate of the substitute lineup.
"115 to 101, the game is over. Congratulations to Charlotte Bobcats, they won this Halloween battle! They won two consecutive victories at the beginning of the season. This new team that just entered the NBA in 2004 is likely to take off this season..."
"Of course, the most important thing is Sheldon Lee. His 44-point performance in a single game really makes people unable to help but cheer for him. It is unimaginable that he is still a rookie. He just made his regular season debut in the NBA two days ago. Today's Halloween battle is just his second game in the NBA..."
"A rookie with 44 points in a single game, this is crazy!"
When the red light was on, Feidun stretched out his fist towards Li Ke. Li Ke did not refuse and directly touched the guy's fat hand.
Who knew that this was just the beginning, Boss Hua's hand then reached over, and then Okafor, who had not communicated with him, and Earboykins at the end of the bench...
"Sheldon, you're playing well, hopefully this game is just the beginning."
Head coach Sam Vincent also came over and gave a punch, followed by the substitutes who came off the court, Lao Du, Jeff McGinnis, Nazel Mohamed...
Everyone knows why the Bobcats won this game, isn’t it because of Li Ke?
In the distance, McDie silently watched the No. 8 rookie and his teammates celebrate the victory of the game, and he suddenly felt a little irritated.
He thought of Carol Dawson. At this time, would Carol Dawson regret not forcibly pushing that deal?
He thought of the man named Darrell again. It was not until he lost the game at this moment that even one-on-one between him and Li Ke that McGrady realized the hidden intention of telling him all this.
The motivation is impure!
Finally, McGrady thought of Yao Yao around her.
Will Yao also want to play basketball with his compatriots?
So McGrady looked at Yao, step by step towards Li Ke in the distance.
"Little Lizi, it's a good fight."
Li Ke smiled twice, stretched out his right hand, shook hands with Dayao, hugged him by the way, and then stared at Dayao's face until Dayao asked a little confused and angrily: "What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at your face or not."
Dayao suddenly laughed again: "You guy, just a regular season game, not that."
"You'll be in a bad mood when you say so in the playoffs?"
"Playoffs? Let's say this when you meet it."
Li Ke nodded, and it was true that if the Bobcats and the Rockets wanted to meet in the playoffs, it would be at least the finals.
With the Rockets' strength, there is no problem with the playoffs, but the finals are still a bit far away.
The Bobcats are even worse. The playoffs are all problems. In the finals? Then you can only dream, there are everything in the dream.
While Li Ke and Dayao were chatting enthusiastically, in the live broadcast room of Yangwu, Director Zhang and Yu Jia could not stop being excited.
"Li Ke with 44 points, 34 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 big hats, two of them led their respective teams. This game will definitely be a classic in the Chinese derby!"
China derby has always been more symbolic than practical, even Li Ke’s previous life was like this.
Basically, from Dazhi entering the NBA to Zhou Qi finally leaving the NBA, the so-called Chinese derby is mostly not a Chinese player.
There are very few games like today in which Li Ke and Yao are in a mismatch.
The excitement of Director Zhang and Yu Jia is naturally understandable.
Including after this game, countless calls for "Li Ke is awesome" sounded in China.
Even Yao has never performed with a Chinese player who scored 44 points alone.
...
Charlotte and Boss Qiao were very excited. Li Ke's performance allowed him to see the hope that Jordan would choose to become a compliment.
Whether it is praising the top scorer or Mo Tanhua, he has never played a phenomenal personal performance like Li Ke in this game.
"This time, I chose the right choice..."
In Los Angeles, Kobe turned off the TV. He decided to practice for a while and calculate how long it will take to the Christmas battle.
Finally, it was Seattle, and Du Xiao finished watching the game.
In fact, at the beginning, he was supporting Li Ke and by the way, he looked at the game with his idol’s mood of playing basketball.
As a result, he saw Li Ke's amazing performance. At the beginning one-on-one, McGrady was not Li Ke's opponent, and then he continued to score, and McGrady was not Li Ke's opponent.
So much so that in the end, when Li Ke scored the victory of this game with continuous mid-range shots, Xiao Du's breathing was rapid.
When he habitually turned on the computer and went to search for Li Ke's specific data-
"19 of 34 shots, 44 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 block..."
Chapter completed!
