The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master

Chapter 470 Teams that explode against each other

SuperSonics possession.

Payton controlled the ball across the midline, and faced Kidd's defense and steadily handed the ball to Lin Dong. Lin Dong singled out LeBron.

The SuperSonics' offensive rhythm in the past two seasons has often been to let Lin Dong play a few games in the first quarter, and the outside players find their own positions, confrontations, and touch. After Lin Dong's singles force the opponent to start to shrink inside, the outside players start to rush again. Three points.

It is a fairly simple tactic, but after two seasons of sweeping the league, no one can beat him. The key is that no one can defend Lin Dong alone when the team is stretched out.

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

Just now, he caught up with Lin Dong's third step in a one-on-one duel. Although he still failed to prevent it in the end, LeBron started to find a feeling.

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

Needless to say, a super low breakthrough depends on the first step. To prevent him from slowing down and changing direction, you must not ask yourself to just keep up in the first step. You must concentrate on a higher level. Level, you must keep up with his first step absolutely perfectly. You cannot lose control of your center of gravity, nor can you slow down your consciousness. Otherwise, if you take one step slowly and then the other, once you are pulled out by Lin Dong in the first step, With that little advantage, it would be impossible to keep up unless he exploded with potential like just now and took a huge risk of injury.

In the first step of prediction, just relying on your eyes will definitely not be able to keep up with a master of Lin Dong's level. You have to see and feel with your heart!

LeBron kept emphasizing in his heart that for this man who had been struggling for a goal for several years and struggled in the darkness for several years, when God gave him a ray of light and a glimmer of hope, what happened The concentration and desire that came out are absolutely unimaginable to ordinary people.

Not only did it block all interference on the court, the increase in adrenaline also made LeBron feel like he had entered an omnipotent state, as if he had absolute control over the court, and because of his desire to defeat Lin Dong And his state has 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 his subtle perception of the breeze on the court...

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

LeBron has entered this state before. He knows that even with his 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 seal his half, he can complete the game. If Lin Dong is blocked one-on-one, the rest of the Cavaliers will be able to use this half time to defeat all other positions of the Sonics and win the game directly. Then he doesn't even have to fight in the second half.

Defeat Lin Dong, today!

Fight!

If it were Lin Dong at the Nike Summit or World Championships, or even Lin Dong when he first entered the NBA, this kind of LeBron would undoubtedly be very dangerous, but it's a pity...

He faced Lin Dong, who had truly surpassed Jordan's state 3!

One has jumped out of the zone level and entered the realm of returning to nature.

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

There is no need to deliberately conserve energy, I just have unlimited energy!

His strong observation ability is enough to capture all detailed information, and his strong analytical ability is enough to transform all this information into the most intuitive answers.

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

It is not advisable to overextend one's physical strength to achieve a state of 'fake perfection'...

The so-called balance of hardness and softness, LeBron seems to have reached the extreme of hardness, but without the corresponding 'softness', he would never be able to take this step in his life, and he can achieve all this not only because of his participation in the Olympics The stimulation from Yuya was more like his nature, and because of the invincibility and endurance he experienced in Japan that year, he had already entered a state of neither sadness nor joy in his heart.

To put it bluntly, I have always been strong and soft, but after coming to the NBA, I overemphasized confrontation and honor, which made me lean more in the direction of 'hardness'. It was not until the 2004 Olympics and after marrying Yuya that I After pulling it back, coupled with the blessing of three consecutive championships, the inner desire to be invincible has been realized, and even the physical training after wearing knee pads for a long time...

There are all kinds of conditions and blessings. Without any of them, it is impossible to reach my current state. This is too difficult.

Perhaps for ordinary people, going to the extreme of being as 'hard' as LeBron is already the limit, just like Michael Jordan, but now he still poses no threat to me, and I can even see through his heart and mind. Lungs and kidneys!

Even if you don't rely on the protection of knee pads to break through the technical limits, there are no players on this planet who can challenge themselves one-on-one.

This feeling of standing on the top of the mountain...it's so lonely!

"You can't guard me alone." Lin Dong held the ball and patted it slowly and rhythmically. He looked at LeBron in front of him with a smile and said, "Let Wade join us early."

"How will you know if you don't try?" LeBron opened his arms and stood still half a step in front of him, his eyes cold.

Two against one? That is the reserved tactic of the Cavaliers, but it will also easily open up the Sonics' perimeter. When LeBron sees hope of defending Lin Dong alone, it is absolutely impossible to defend two against one.

At this time, the two of them looked at each other, and LeBron's eyes were like bright stars shining in Lin Dong's eyes. They were strong and changeable, and the information he saw was not much, but it was extremely clear.

But in LeBron's eyes, Lin Dong's eyes were like the deep starry sky, vast and boundless, seemingly containing endless information, but without any focus...

LeBron swallowed involuntarily, while Lin Dong smiled slightly.

The defensive position of half a step leaves room to seal the outside line, slightly shortening the distance to prevent breakthroughs. It seems that after the breakthrough just now, LeBron has the confidence to face his own breakthrough.

Break his knowledge?

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

call!

LeBron's complicated eyes suddenly condensed.

Saw it!

He made a quick breakthrough with a super low body to the left. LeBron, who was highly focused, had already sensed this breakthrough the moment Lin Dong started to lower his center of gravity.

The rapid reaction was synchronized with the perception, causing the body to make conditioned reflexes, perfectly keeping up with Lin Dong's first step of super low body.

The challenge begins!

LeBron knows very well that following this first step is just the beginning. The real focus is to predict the first step of Lin Dong's turn!

This requires keeping one's focus and making complete preparations. That is the real difficulty, but at least now we have a good start.

He maintained his center of gravity very well, and with his... high-intensity concentration, LeBron suddenly felt as if he was shivering.

I saw Lin Dong twisting on the spot and turning around suddenly during a high-speed sprint.

The first step is not to slow down and change direction!

LeBron's vigilance has been stretched to the limit.

Seeing through the eyes, the heart, and even through the body's perception of Lin Dong's center of gravity when defending closely, all the information is integrated into the brain at this moment, and the body has already made a conditioned reflex instinctively without even waiting for the brain to issue an order!

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

Perfect first step, perfect follow-up defense!

LeBron could feel the rapid change of direction at this time. Not only did he not lose his position at all, he was even in absolute control of maintaining his center of gravity.

His heart was ecstatic and his confidence was unprecedented.

He has reached the peak of his prediction and reaction. Now, no matter what kind of opponent he is, it is impossible for him to get rid of his defense!

But the next second...

LeBron, who was halfway through the change of direction, already felt something was wrong. Lin Dong did not break through to the other side as he thought. The turn of his back was only half-turned, 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 froze suddenly, and he wanted to mobilize his center of gravity to rush forward, but the center of gravity of the left block at the first moment was facing Lin Dong's center of gravity that was directly retreating. How could he stick to it without any gaps?

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

Immediately afterwards, LeBron saw Lin Dong's half-smiling mouth, and then he shot the basketball steadily.

Uh-huh!

The 3-pointer was scored and the net was empty.

5:3!

Others obviously didn't understand the various psychological confrontations and subtleties that the two experienced at this moment. They just felt that LeBron had caught up with Lin Dong in all three changes of direction before. Now he didn't catch up with Lin Dong when he took a step back. It felt like It's a bit incredible.

Even Wade, Kidd and even the head coach Mike Brown on the sidelines didn't notice it and just thought it was LeBron's carelessness.

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

That guy's first change of direction is already difficult to guard against, and with this step back, it will definitely become even harder to guard against, because the defender will have to take care of more points and surfaces... …

Prejudgment? This cannot be predicted. After all, no matter how much prediction is made, it is based on information analysis, but the 'information' he gave when turning and changing direction and turning back are completely consistent. How else can you predict?

It is already difficult to block Lin Dong's breakthrough at one point, but block him from two points at the same time? That's a no-brainer.

I can only rely on guessing...

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

I have to say that although the Cavaliers couldn't guard Lin Dong, and LeBron was blocked by Lin Dong's defense, the combination of Kidd + O'Neal + Wade was still enough to perform invincibly on the offensive end.

Kidd's three-pointer just now made Payton dare not take another step away, and the words and performance of his teenage friend just now also aroused Payton's competitive spirit.

I have abused you since childhood, and there is no reason why I should be abused by you now.

How did Lin Dong say that sentence often?

Your dad is always your dad!

Trick 1: Death Coil!

Kidd had just passed the midline when Payton stuck directly to him. His two big hands wrapped around Kidd like spider webs. His body, which had become slightly sluggish after more than a year of practicing basketball, seemed to have returned to its peak at this moment. .

Tip 2: Trash talk!

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

"Because you're ashamed?"

"Wrong! Because you are too good!" Payton kept reaching out against Kidd and yelled: "I'm afraid that you will hold back our SuperSonics!"

Kidd was about to ignore him, but the next second he heard Payton say: "Where is your son? Have you found him?"

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

"Ah? I know! Haven't you divorced yet? Can your wife stand a weakling like you?"

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

Snapped!

The ball was actually hit. Fortunately, Kidd reacted quickly enough and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block, which made the shot slow by half a beat. Although the ball was knocked away slightly, Kidd just hurried forward and regained control of the ball. into hand.

Payton secretly thought that it was a pity that he was indeed old and could not grab the ball even if it was stolen.

But Kidd was also shocked and broke into a cold sweat.

This guy is indeed old, and his speed and strength are no longer what they used to be, but his defensive skills and trash talk are as exquisite as ever. If you were young, you would always be unable to help yourself every time you faced off against this guy. They started fighting after playing. Unexpectedly, they were still teasing him to the point of getting angry just now. This is the most difficult thing about Payton.

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

And while the two were fighting for the ball, a gleam flashed in Wade's eyes.

Payton's veteran energy won't last long, after all, the mailbox is short of gas, and before Kidra blasts him, the Cavaliers' offense will be completed by himself!

Facing Iguodala, who has gone through three years of hard-core defensive training, most NBA players have a headache, but for Wade, this level is not enough!

At this time, he took a sharp step without the ball and was followed by Iguodala. Then he turned and changed direction. His superb speed instantly got rid of Iguodala. When he rushed forward, Kidd regained control of the ball.

As the league's passing master, even in the gap where the ball has just been intercepted, all the movements on the court are obviously unable to hide from Kidd's instinctive perception. His eyes are still looking at Payton, but the basketball in his hand has already slipped. Passed to Wade.

Seeing Iguodala in front of him crazily filling in, Wade, who was holding the ball, just made a feint of worship, nodded to Iguodala, then jumped forward one step forward, and there was no one in front of him.

Wade only has eyes for the basket at this time, a mid-range jump shot!

Whoa, the basketball went steadily into the net.

5:5 flat.

A smile appeared on Wade's lips.

Defense? It doesn't exist. No matter how strong the SuperSonics rotation defense is, it can't stop the Cavaliers' firepower!

If Lin Dong wants to blast each other, let's try blasting each other to see who has more firepower!
