Chapter 484 860
This reporter is very stupid for asking such a question.
The two hottest positions in the league right now are small forward and point guard.
Especially the small forwards, James, Durant needless to say, Li Liang, Cheng Yaojin, who broke out halfway, made the league tremble with three tricks.
In his rookie season, he relied on his own three-pointer to hack Durant and James to death.
Therefore, if Li Liang says that he is the best small forward, there must be many people who are not convinced and can come up with arguments.
But Li Liang has the qualifications to say that.
And this reporter has another intention for asking this question, because the Clippers came to Indiana, and their next opponent is the Pacers.
Who is the general manager of the Pacers? Larry Bird!
Bird is currently the undisputed number one small forward in history.
Three championships, three regular season MVPs in a row, two finals MVPs, the famous black and white hegemony in history, and countless pretentious legends...
The current hope of surpassing Bird is LeBron James.
It's just that after losing both the MVP and the championship in 13 years, James' pursuit of Bird slowed down.
Li Liang came out of nowhere and stopped in front of him.
The reporter asked this question now because he wanted to find out about Li Liang and dig a hole for him.
He knew that with Li Liang's pissing nature, nine out of ten he would answer.
If he answers Bird, then you go to the Pacers to play away, and first praise the opponent's general manager for being the first in history.
As a reporter in Indiana, I have a little upper hand in writing.
If he answers James, or Pippen or something, then there will be a good show.
It will definitely be another good show, a war of words.
In addition to games and player gossip every year in the NBA, doesn't the NBA live on the topic of Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong?
Not only did the officials not object, but they added fuel and vinegar from time to time, adding some topics.
Then lead the young fans to participate in this kind of debate, one by one shirtless, as if competing whose father is more cowhide, eager to fight to prove that their father is better.
The NBA's media also makes various rankings from time to time, on the one hand to pick up saliva, and on the other hand to provide theoretical basis for fans to quarrel.
Anyway, when there is a quarrel, there will be traffic and enthusiasm, and fans will take part in it, which is a good thing for the NBA's publicity and marketing.
However, Li Liang did not accept this.
His attitude is very clear, you ask me who is the most powerful?
Sorry, I'm the daddy of all of you.
Lao Tzu is truly the chosen son of God, the father of the system.
The future No. 1 player in the NBA, No. 1 small forward, No. 1 power forward, No. 1 shooting guard, No. 1 point guard and No. 1 center, will choose someone else to be the No. 1 man in a certain position?
Just kidding, even if I am not Li Liang now, this seat will be mine sooner or later. If I don't sit, you can't grab it.
This reporter originally wanted to make a point, and go back to write a report to get some topics.
Now, the topic of trading Paul can be rested for a while, and the discussion of the number one small forward in NBA history can begin!
Li Liang actually said boldly, "It will be me," which is...it seems to make sense.
This is a pile of achievements in the second grade, which many stars can't achieve in their lifetime, and he is still making rapid progress. Judging from this momentum, isn't the number one small forward in history belong to him?
But anyway, there are bound to be arguments.
It is worthy of being the traffic king of the NBA, the treasure emperor, the sprinkler in the saliva world, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the topic area, who can always bring enough topics to the media.
On January 19, the game between the Pacers and the Clippers hadn't started yet, and the TV station was noisy again.
As for who is the first small forward in history, all parties hold their own opinions.
Although Bird has nothing to question in terms of strength, honor, and fame, there will always be people who jump out to express different opinions.
Americans have freedom of speech, and they are particularly tolerant of the speech of the brain-dead and the blogger.
Some people say it's Pippen, some old guys think it's Havlicek, and the current media people are more supportive of James.
Barkley jumped out again at this time. He was as stinky as Li Liang, and said, "The number one small forward in NBA history is actually me, and Bird should be considered a power forward!"
You are really a fucking talent, it's a brilliant move to directly classify Bird as a power forward.
Bird, who is the center of the topic, was asked this question by reporters before the game between the Clippers and the Pacers.
Bird was not led by the nose by the reporter, but said: "Bruce is right. He said he would be, but he didn't say he was. If he can play like me for more than ten years, I think he will achieve his goal. target."
As soon as Bird opened his mouth, he was really extraordinary, and he directly pointed out the key words in Li Liang's words, "it will be" instead of "is".
By the way, I hinted that Li Liang hasn't played long enough, and he should practice again.
High, really tall, much stronger than Barkley and his ilk.
On the night of the game, Bird sat courtside to watch the Clippers and Pacers play in a modest gray-green suit with a turtleneck underneath.
After the Pacers experienced a triumphant advance at the beginning of the season, their forward momentum remains undiminished.
Although not as invincible as the Clippers and lost a few more games, the wins are enough to dominate the East.
The morale of the Pacers can be said to be very strong now, and their strength is not comparable to the Knicks.
Sure enough, the Clippers encountered big trouble in this game.
In the opening game, the Clippers played well against the hosts. In a 10:4 start, Li Liang sent out two assists early, including assisting Barnes to hit a three-pointer.
But then the Clippers' offense stagnated, and the Pacers made targeted defensive arrangements against Li Liang.
On the whole, they still insist on one-on-one single-defense strategy, and do not give Li Liang a chance to pass the ball to organize.
Paul George followed up with Li Liang every step of the way. When other players saw Li Liang's tendency to attack, they immediately came to help defend.
The Pacers' replacements and rotations are very quick, not like the Knicks, who can get a chance with a double screen, a pick-and-roll, and an empty-handed move.
In the absence of Paul, the Clippers' weakness of not having the same level of organization is fully exposed.
At the end of the first quarter, after Li Liang left the field, the Pacers suddenly exerted their strength, and the second team played an offensive shock wave of 18:4!
Now the Clippers are completely at a disadvantage in the situation.
After that, the Clippers began a long journey of filling holes and catching up.
Li Liang played poorly this time, and the Pacers' defense was very strong and targeted.
Needless to say, after Li Liang scored 58 points in the last game, it is impossible for the Pacers to allow Li Liang to score like that.
They know what to do with a pitcher, and that's to keep him out of rhythm from the start of the game.
From the first touch of the ball and the first shot, it made him uncomfortable and sad, but he couldn't adjust and continue his shooting feeling.
Li Liang was indeed disturbed, and his touch tonight couldn't be compared with the previous game at all.
But Li Liang still helped the team with his defense—his defense, as well as his mental strength.
After a bad start, the Clippers played very tenaciously and kept catching up.
After chasing until 3 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Clippers even chased the score to 92:94, only two points away from the Pacers!
Li Liang didn't score much, but Griffin played very well today. Li Liang attracted the attention of the defense. Griffin had already scored 30 points in the fourth quarter.
The Pacers called a timeout, and Paul George hit a three-pointer at the critical moment.
Then, there was a controversial penalty on the field.
Li Liang broke through the basket during the offense, and then made a sudden stop to shoot a jumper, which hit Hibbert.
Hibbert fell to the ground, and the referee called Li Liang an offensive foul.
And Li Liang thinks this should be a 2+1.
"I knocked him down? I jumped up and my pull-up jump shot knocked him down? He flopped, blocked!"
But the referee ignored it and upheld the original verdict.
Don't you, Li Liang, flop and make offensive fouls less often?
Li Liang was so angry that he directly scolded the referee, "CNM!"
As a result, the referee called a technical foul.
There is no way, now NBA referees have started to learn Chinese swear words seriously in order to adapt to Li Liang.
Otherwise, if this kid gets mad and spouts at the referees, you won't know whether he is scolding you or praising you.
And tonight's referee happened to be Crawford, and Li Liang's hair dryer was of no use to him.
This crucial penalty became a turning point on the court.
The momentum of the Clippers chasing points came to an abrupt end, and a penalty was scored, and the point difference came to 6 points.
Then the Pacers still had the ball. At this time, David West singled Griffin in a high post and hit a jumper, widening the point difference to 8 points.
In the end, the Clippers and Li Liang failed to create a miracle.
Li Liang tried a three-pointer at the last moment and hit two goals in three shots.
It's a pity that there is not enough time. It's really too late for the baby to die.
In the end, the Clippers lost to the Pacers by 101:106 in the away game by 5 points, reaping their fifth loss of the season.
Li Liang made 7 of 17 shots and 2 of 6 three-pointers in this game. He scored 20 points and 6 assists.
His performance was indeed not good enough, and he was very contained by the Pacers.
After the game, Li Liang went back to the locker room, quite depressed.
It feels like I haven't lost a game for a long time. This time I just finished bragging and lost to the Pacers. I'm really upset.
Maybe it's too sad to be ridiculed by Bird, the coercive king!
After returning to the hotel at night, Li Liang was so angry that he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
He didn't even participate in the post-match news interviews, so he got on the team bus and went back to the hotel.
After falling asleep, Li Liang entered the system, went to the [Personal Training Center], and spent 2500 points to summon the peak bird from the system.
That was Bird in 1986, in his prime, with fluffy blond hair, at the peak of his life.
MVP, championship, best record in team history, 41 wins and 1 loss at home...
Seeing Li Liang summoning himself, Bird asked Li Liang what skills he wanted to learn, and whether he wanted to be singled out.
Li Liang shook his head and said, "No, I don't want to learn any techniques, I just want to ask you how I should scold you."
"Fu-ck you, Larry." Bird said without hesitation, he was really willing to scold himself.
"No, no, no, I'm not saying this kind of swearing, I'm talking about that kind of rubbish, you know!" Li Liangcai didn't want to swear, and it's better to use the country to swear.
Bird in the system thought for a while and said, "You can keep saying, 8, 60, 8, 60, 8, 60..."
"8, 60?" Li Liang thought, what kind of strange way of swearing?
Could it be possible to have a conversation with Byrd in the future, and use these two numbers to scold him?
But this is what Byrd himself said, what a strange man. Is it so strange to be scolded?
Regardless of whether the NBA is banned or not, it will not stop me from hacking its heart.
