Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

"Oh, did you see that, the Hornets want to send this rookie Lee a triple-double!"

"Of course, this Lee is indeed strong enough. I think there is no problem for the Hornets to make the playoffs this season!"

"Entering the playoffs? Oh, my God, this is the Hornets' first and most promising one. I hope this rookie Lee will not let us down!"

"Disappointed? No, no, no, I think Lee and the Hornets this season will definitely shock us. Think about it... The Hornets have such a center who dominates the penalty area, coupled with the already not weak outside firepower, basically already Locked up a playoff spot."

"Don't rush to make a conclusion, you know...the regular season hasn't even started yet, and the Hornets are not qualified to talk about the playoffs. Just watch, Lee's performance is too important to the Hornets."

"Look, the fourth quarter has begun."

The atmosphere at the scene has reached a climax. The fans are discussing Li Shengli, a rookie, and the future of the Hornets. Before that, they are looking forward to... Li Shengli's triple-double.

To be honest, the Charlotte Hornets, who joined the NBA in 1988, have yet to record a single playoff game. For the young Hornets, the most urgent task is to boost morale, not just for the players, but more importantly for the team. Food and clothing, parents... the morale of the fans.

Obviously, this originally insignificant preseason game has become very meaningful at this moment, and Li Shengli, a rookie who scored a triple-double in his first game, is the key to boosting morale and attracting fans' attention.

Hornets coach Alan saw this, so he did not stop his players from going crazy on the court at all, and even contributed to the flames, and together with the players wanted to make Li Shengli a future star of the Hornets.

Of course, Bishop Eagle also saw this.

If it's a game against other teams, that's fine, but for a rookie like Li Shengli, a weak team in the Eastern Conference like the Hornets, who wants to step on the Eagles, he absolutely cannot agree.

for a while...

This preseason game, which was originally meant to run the lineup, has become a 'farce' of the two sides' competition, and there are countless strange operations on the court.

...

The fourth quarter begins.

Li Shengli, the focus of the audience, will naturally not end. Although the physical strength in the front is very exhausting, and as a center, he often needs to fight hand-to-hand, but there are only 5 assists left. His teammates are persisting, and he will naturally not give up.

"Hurry up, everyone run, Li, get ready!" Boggs, who held the ball to organize the attack, roared, and a tricky ground pass sent the ball to Li Shengli.

"Jill, shoot him!" Li Shengli transferred the ball to Jill's hand again the moment he caught the ball.

"receive!"

Jill, who has always felt good in this game, naturally assumed the role of the offensive finisher, and immediately pulled up after receiving the ball.

Although the opponent rushed forward, he still resolutely chose to shoot. Unfortunately... this disturbed shot was too reluctant.

Boom!

The ball did not enter the basket, and entered the stage of rebounding under the basket.

On the Hawks side, the power forward rushed up to block Li Shengli, and Willis rushed to grab the rebound the first time Jill missed the shot.

"Boy, who do you think you are? Next, don't try to grab any rebounds from me." Willis, who was aggrieved for most of the time, finally found a chance to mock Li Shengli, and stared at Li Shengli viciously, beating his chest and roaring. .

"Then give it a try!" Li Shengli followed his teammates and ran to his backcourt without looking back.

"Come on, little ones..."

"Be careful smashing your heads!"

"This is our home stadium, go home!"

The Hornets sent out a wave of collective ridicule.

"F**k off, you bugs."

"Let's wait and see whose head will be blown off!"

Naturally not to be outdone, the Eagles responded one after another.

Because the two sides did not act too aggressively, and the ridicule was relatively 'civilized', several referees chose to turn a blind eye.

...

In the last quarter, the game had just started, and both sides were angry. The field was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and this smell of gunpowder quickly spread to the audience.

Although the Charlotte Stadium is not that big among the stadiums of all the teams in the league, it is also capable of tens of thousands of people. At this moment...thousands of Hornets fans all stood up and roared. The hot scene was comparable to In the playoffs, everyone is counting Li Shengli's assists.

...

Back to the game.

The Eagles had the ball, and everyone deliberately slowed down the offensive rhythm. Although the score was still 10 points behind, they were not in a hurry at all.

"Are you planning to spend it with me?" Li Shengli sat on the inside line, staring at the ball, and naturally understood the eagle's intentions.

However...he was not in a hurry.

In the last ten minutes or so, his plan was very simple. Since the coach and teammates didn't care about winning or losing, they agreed to let him do it, so he just did it to the end...

Assists in offensive rounds and blocks in defensive rounds.

The former is 5, and the latter is 6...

...

Wilkins holds the ball, and the Hornets will focus on taking care of the Eagles' strongest firepower point, but Wilkins has to choose to split the ball, and the Eagles defender will take an open shot outside the penalty area.

"Block... add one more!" Li Shengli burst out with all his strength to squeeze Willis away, took a big stride and jumped out.

In the interior, the advantage of height is very important, and a pair of long legs is an offensive and defensive weapon. The seemingly undefendable distance, Li Shengli rushed to it with a big stride...

boom!

Just like Li Shengli's forecast, his block data increased by one, and the atmosphere on the scene was pushed to a high point again, with thunderous cheers.

...

next game.

The Hornets' offense restarted the assist plan. As long as the ball is passed from Li Shengli, regardless of whether the opportunity is good or not, the Hornets' three guards will throw it when they catch the opportunity... It is completely a lottery-like projection.

I hit it, and everyone is happy.

If the shot is missed, power forward Kenny Gattisson, who came off the bench, will take the initiative to step forward and fight the opponent's inside player, creating opportunities for Li Shengli to grab the rebound.

As for the Hornets' defense...

Feel free to boldly let the Eagles' guards break through, but never let them shoot, forcing them to shoot inside, so that Li Shengli has a chance to defend and block shots.

...

for a while...

Because the Hornets moved the ball too much, many of them forced Li Shengli to catch the ball and pass it out, which caused the number of turnovers to soar, and with it, the number of fouls on the defensive end soared, and the score was overtaken by 2 points.

Fortunately, the expected effect of the Hornets has been achieved.

With 3 minutes left before the end of the game, Li Shengli had 9 assists, and even more astonishing 8 block data.

...

The audience at the scene has completely fallen into madness. The sound waves overturned the entire arena, as if trying to wake up the entire sleeping city of Charlotte. Everyone can't help but question...

Are you sure it's 3 pairs?

Why is this data... so frankly, it's going to 4 pairs?

3 minutes, 3 more minutes!

At this moment, thousands of pairs of eyes were focused on Li Shengli, looking forward to the performance of the new Hornet star.
