Chapter 470: Teams that Explode Each Other

The ball of the Supersonics.

Payton passed the ball across the center line, and faced Kidd's defense and handed the ball to Lin Dong steadily. Lin Dong played against LeBron.

The rhythm of the Supersonics' offense in the past two seasons is often to let Lin Dong play a few first in the first quarter, and the outside players find their own positions, confrontations, and touches. After Lin Dong's singles forced the opponent to start shrinking the inside line, the outside players started to shoot three-pointers.

It's a very simple tactic, but no one can beat it after sweeping the league for two seasons. The key is that no one can defend Lin Dong alone when the team is pulling away.

LeBron stared at Lin Dong's eyes quietly, watching his every move.

Just now, he caught up with Lin Dong's third step of the limit. Although he still failed to defend it in the end, it has made LeBron start to find a feeling.

The most difficult point to defend Lin Dong's breakthrough is actually concentrated on his first step.

Needless to say, the super low-body breakthrough depends directly on the first step. To prevent him from changing direction without slowing down, you must not ask yourself to just keep up with him in the first step. You must focus on a higher level. You must absolutely keep up with his first step perfectly. You must not lose control of your center of gravity, and you must not be a bit slower in consciousness. Otherwise, if you are slow in one step, you will be slow in every step. Once you are pulled out of the little advantage of Lin Dong in the first step, it will be impossible to keep up unless you have the potential to explode like just now and take a huge risk of injury.

The prediction of the first step is definitely not able to keep up with the master of Lin Dong's level by just looking at it with your eyes. You have to look carefully and feel it with your heart!

LeBron kept emphasizing in his heart that for this man who has been fighting for a goal for several years and struggling in the dark for several years, when God gave him a beam of light and a ray of hope, the concentration and desire that burst out are absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.

Not only did it block all the interference on the court, but the increase in adrenaline also made LeBron feel that he had entered an omnipotent state, as if he had absolute control over the court, and because of his desire to defeat Lin Dong, this state had a certain bonus space!

All the information about Lin Dong's body seemed to appear in LeBron's "eyes", so much so that LeBron could even feel the direction of the hair on Lin Dong's face through the subtle perception of the breeze on the court...

This is a perfect control of the second level of zone. In terms of ability, this can even be said to be state 3, but it is completed through the increased consumption of physical strength by the brain.

LeBron has entered this state. He knows that even if he has abnormal physical strength, he can only last for two quarters at most, but as long as he can fight against Lin Dong in the first half, as long as he can block him in the half and complete the one-on-one blockade of Lin Dong, the other Cavaliers will be enough to use this half time to blow up all other positions of the Supersonics and win the game directly, and he doesn't even need to fight in the second half.

Defeat Lin Dong, today!

Fight!

If it was Lin Dong at the Nike Summit or the World Championships, or even when he first entered the NBA, such a LeBron would undoubtedly be very dangerous, but unfortunately...

He was facing Lin Dong who had truly surpassed Jordan's state 3!

A kind of Lin Dong who had already jumped out of the zone level and entered the realm of returning to nature.

No need to open any zone, I am the zone, and it is a zone that covers all realms!

No need to deliberately save physical strength, I am unlimited physical strength!

Super strong observation ability is enough to capture all the details, and super strong analytical ability is enough for him to convert all this information into the most intuitive answer.

LeBron's emotions, expressions, reactions, physical details, and even what LeBron is thinking at this moment, can't be hidden from Lin Dong's eyes.

It is not advisable to overdraw physical strength to achieve a state of "false perfection"...

The so-called combination of hardness and softness, LeBron seems to have reached the extreme of hardness, but without the corresponding "softness", he would never have taken this step in his life. The reason why he can achieve all this is not only because of the stimulation from Yuya at the Olympics, but more because of his nature. He also experienced invincibility and endurance in Japan that year, which made him enter a state of neither sadness nor joy in his heart early on.

To put it bluntly, he has always been combining hardness and softness, but after coming to the NBA, he overemphasized confrontation and honor, which made him lean more towards the direction of "hardness". It was not until the 2004 Olympics and until he married Yuya that he pulled back. With the blessing of three consecutive championships, the idea of ​​invincibility in his heart has been formed, and he even needs to wear knee pads for a long time to temper his physical strength...

All kinds of conditions and blessings, it is impossible to reach my current state without any one of them. It is too difficult.

Perhaps for ordinary people, reaching the extreme of "hardness" like LeBron is already the limit, just like Michael Jordan, but it still does not pose a threat to me now, I can even see through his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys!

Even if I don't rely on the protection of knee pads to break through the technical limit, there is no player on this planet who can challenge me alone.

This feeling of standing on the top of the mountain... is really lonely!

"One person can't defend me." Lin Dong held the ball and slapped it slowly and rhythmically, smiling at LeBron in front of him and said: "Let Wade come up earlier."

"How do you know if you don't try?" LeBron opened his arms and sank his center of gravity half a step in front of him, his eyes cold.

Two on one? That was the Cavaliers' reserved tactic, but it would also easily open up the Sonics' outside line. When LeBron saw the hope of defending Lin Dong alone, it was impossible for him to defend two on one.

At this time, the two looked at each other. LeBron's eyes were like bright stars in Lin Dong's eyes, strong and changeable. He didn't see much information, but it was extremely clear.

But Lin Dong's eyes were like the deep starry sky in LeBron's eyes, vast and boundless, as if containing endless information, but it seemed to have no focus...

LeBron swallowed his saliva involuntarily, and Lin Dong smiled slightly.

The half-step defensive position left space to block the outside line, and shortened the distance to defend against breakthroughs a little bit. It seems that after the breakthrough just now, LeBron has the confidence to face his own breakthrough.

Break his cognition?

"Then let you try." Lin Dong said with a smile.

Huh!

LeBron's complex eyes suddenly condensed.

I see!

LeBron, who was highly focused, had already sensed the breakthrough the moment Lin Dong just began to lower his center of gravity.

The rapid reaction was synchronized with the perception, allowing the body to make a conditioned reflex and perfectly follow Lin Dong's first step.

The challenge began!

LeBron knew very well that following this first step was just the beginning, and the real focus was to predict the first step of Lin Dong's turn!

This required maintaining one's center of gravity and making full preparations, which was the real difficulty, but at least there was a good start now.

His center of gravity was well maintained, his... In the high-intensity concentration, LeBron suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

Lin Dong twisted on the spot and turned suddenly in a high-speed sprint.

The first step did not slow down and change direction!

LeBron's vigilance had been stretched to the limit.

Through the eyes and heart, and even through the body's perception of Lin Dong's center of gravity during close defense, all the information was integrated into the brain at this moment, and even without waiting for the brain to issue an order, the body had instinctively made a conditioned reflex!

As Lin Dong turned around, his center of gravity had already shifted to the other side.

Perfect first step, perfect defense!

LeBron could feel how fast he changed direction at this moment. Not only did he not lose his position at all, but he was even in absolute control of his center of gravity.

He was ecstatic and confident.

He had already reached the peak of anticipation and reaction. Now, no matter what kind of opponent, it was impossible for him to get rid of his defense!

But the next second...

Halfway through the change of direction, LeBron already felt something was wrong. Lin Dong did not break through to the other side as he thought. The turn with his back turned only halfway, and then his center of gravity was pulled back.

Step back... A step back that pulls the center of gravity back by changing direction without slowing down!

LeBron's face suddenly froze. He wanted to mobilize his center of gravity to rush forward, but the center of gravity that blocked to the left at the first time, facing Lin Dong's center of gravity that was directly retreating, how could he stick to him without any gaps?

There was a full body length between the two of them. When Lin Dong stood up and reached the highest point outside the three-point line, LeBron had just jumped up.

Immediately afterwards, LeBron saw the corner of Lin Dong's mouth that seemed to be smiling, and then the basketball was thrown steadily.

Swish!

3 points scored, hollow into the net.

5:3!

Others obviously did not understand the various psychological confrontations and subtleties that the two experienced at this moment. They just felt that LeBron had followed Lin Dong's three-step change of direction before, and now he didn't follow up with a step back, which felt a bit incredible.

Even Wade, Kidd, and even the head coach Mike Brown on the sidelines didn't see it, just thinking that LeBron was careless for a moment.

But only LeBron, the person involved, understood what happened just now.

The guy's first step change of direction was already difficult to defend, and with this step back, it would definitely become more difficult to defend, because the defender would have to take care of more points and surfaces...

Prediction? This cannot be predicted. After all, no matter how much you predict, it is based on information analysis. However, the "information" he gave when turning and turning back is completely consistent. How else can you predict it?

It is already difficult to block Lin Dong's breakthrough at one point, and blocking him at two points at the same time? That is something you don't even need to think about.

You can only rely on guessing...

When LeBron was thinking about his own thoughts, the ball was in the hands of the Cavaliers.

It must be said that although the Cavaliers could not defend Lin Dong, and LeBron was also blocked by Lin Dong's defense, the combination of Kidd + O'Neal + Wade was still enough to play an invincible performance on the offensive end.

Kidd's three-pointer just now made Payton dare not put it one step away, and the words and performance of his young friend just now also aroused Payton's competitive spirit.

I have abused you since I was a child, and there is no reason to say that I should be abused by you now.

What is the sentence that Lin Dong often says?

Your father is always your father!

Trick 1: Death Coil!

Just as Kidd crossed the center line, Payton came directly to him, and his two entangled big hands covered Kidd like a spider web. After more than a year of health-preserving basketball, his body, which had been a little sluggish, seemed to have returned to its peak at this moment.

Trick 2: Trash talk!

"Jason, do you know why I didn't go to New Jersey to persuade you before?"

"Because you are ashamed?"

"Wrong! Because you are too weak!" Payton kept reaching out to Kidd while screaming, "I'm afraid you will drag us down in the Supersonics!"

Kidd was ready to ignore him, but the next second he heard Payton say, "Where's your girlfriend? Have you found her?"

"Don't give me that, it's outdated! Don't you know I'm married?" Kidd finally couldn't help but reply.

"Ah? I know! You haven't divorced yet? Can your wife stand a weak guy like you?"

"Fuck you!" Kidd suddenly turned around and rushed forward two steps against Payton, but a big hand seized the gap and dribbled towards him.

Snap!

The ball was hit, but fortunately Kidd reacted quickly enough and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, which slowed down the shot by half a beat. Although the ball was hit a little, Kidd just rushed forward and regained control of the ball.

Payton thought to himself that it was a pity. He was really old and couldn't grab the ball even after it was intercepted.

Kidd was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

This guy is indeed old, his speed and strength are not as good as before, but his defensive skills and trash talk are as exquisite as ever. If it was put in the young time, every time he played against this guy, he would always fight after the game. I didn't expect that he could still tease me a little angry just now. This is the most difficult part of Payton.

You can't be careless just because this guy is old!

While the two were fighting for the ball, Wade's eyes had a gleam of brilliance.

Payton's veteran residual heat will not be able to play for long, after all, the mailbox is short of oil, and before Kidd explodes him, the Cavaliers' offense will be completed by himself!

Facing Iguodala, who has experienced three years of iron-blooded defense training, most NBA players are headaches, but for Wade, this level is not enough!

At this time, he took a quick step without the ball, and was followed by Iguodala, and then turned and changed direction. He got rid of Iguodala at an extremely fast speed, and rushed forward just when Kidd regained control of the ball.

As a master of passing in the league, Kidd's instinctive perception of all the movements on the court was obvious, even when the ball was just stolen. His eyes were still on Payton, but the basketball in his hand had already been passed to Wade.

Seeing Iguodala frantically filling in the position in front of him, Wade, who was holding the ball, just made a false move, pointed Iguodala, and then took a step forward and jumped up, and there was no one in front of him.

Wade's eyes were only on the basket at this time, a mid-range jump shot!

Swish, the basketball went into the net steadily.

5:5 tie.

Wade's mouth curled up with a smile.

Defense? There is no such thing. No matter how strong the rotation defense of the Supersonics is, it can't stop the firepower of the Cavaliers!

Lin Dong wants to explode each other, then let's try to explode each other and see who has more firepower!
