Chapter 16 Confrontation
At the beginning of two consecutive losses, Mike Brown finally couldn't help but change the starting lineup.
In fact, it doesn’t matter who is the starting inside player. Anyway, the position is Bynum, so it’s good to let Xiang Chu try it.
Mike Brown must make changes. Kobe is in a bad mood during this period. In front of superstars, ordinary coaches are not good.
Of course Kobe won't blame the coach, he will accuse the management of inaction, and the coach may be the one who takes the blame at that time.
"I'm always ready."
Xiang Chu's face was already smiling. Whether one or two games, he was happy about showing his face. He was always looking forward to it.
In the training before the game, Josh McRoberts was a little depressed. He was the strong aid signed by the Lakers after trading Odom, but what could he do? He did not meet the Lakers' expectations in the first two games.
In continuous games, the training in the team is just familiar with tactics and activities.
Xiang Chu asked Gasol for some inside methods. Gasol has a good personality and it doesn’t matter whether he learns or not. It is necessary to have a good relationship with important players in the team.
"It would be great if I could play. If I could play, the team would never lose again." Bynum was a little bored.
They returned to home court, and the Jazz were back to back.
The Jazz are not a good team. They had some problems last season, but they adjusted well.
Now they have good young people, both Gordon Hayward and Derek Fevers are worth looking forward to.
Their main firepower is in the inside line, which is also one of the reasons why Mike Brown is determined to make Xiang Chu, a big tall starter.
"Hey, buddy, don't be nervous, the starting lineup is just that kind of thing." Artest leaned over and said in the locker room.
"I'm not nervous. I haven't won before the starter, and the result can't be worse." Xiang Chu said with a smile.
Artest slapped his head, "I should have guessed that your honest look when you train in the team always makes me forget the arrogance on your social media. It seems that there is what you really look like."
"Just just give yourself some pressure." Xiang Chu explained weakly.
The Lakers' home court will never be short of spectators, and Xiang Chu became excited when he went out.
It was a bit different from what was expected. The Jazz actually asked Paul Millsap to play as a substitute. You should know that he and Al Jefferson are not that tall double towers.
The Jazz may want to train young people and enhance their firepower in the next rotation period, but Millsap has the ability to lead the team.
Xiang Chu has an advantage in height whether against Jefferson or Fevers.
Moreover, although the other party is bigger, neither of them is the type who relies on their bodies to eat.
What Xiang Chu dislikes the most now is the unreasonable type. The reasoned type Gasol taught him a very simple defense method, just raise a pair of long arms to interfere, and ignore the opponent's footsteps or other things.
The Jazz let Fevers start, which also means letting him defend, and Xiang Chu will take on this job.
This time the Jazz scored first, and Xiang Chu was ready for the inside, but they hit the outside.
However, the Jazz's outside line is much worse than the previous two teams. The Lakers are now a little afraid of the strong outside line, and they are not that afraid of the inside line.
Once Xiang Chu and Gasol spread their long arms, it would put a lot of pressure on them to not jump.
As for how awesome Al Jefferson's steps are, they don't move, and they are tall and arrogant.
Al Jefferson is still a little bit short of his height. It’s okay to have only one high inside player in front of him, but the two really affected his performance.
With Xiang Chu's strong rebounding ability, the team took the lead from the beginning.
The Jazz had to adjust less than four minutes into the start and replaced with Millsap.
Millsap's attack power is much stronger than Fevers. The key is that he can play like a small forward, so Xiang Chu and Gasol are a little unprepared.
Xiang Chu passed away once, and was replaced after breaking another rule.
But he must have completed the task because the score is ahead.
When he got out, he couldn't help but say to Mike Brown, "Coach, put me on the court at the last moment and make sure there will be no problems."
Mike Brown glared at him and ignored him.
Xiang Chuhan smiled and seemed to have nothing happened. He was really worried that Mike Brown would be stupid again. It would be great to leave him on the court to protect the rebounds.
The starting lineup was still very good, and he was soon sent on the court again because Josh McRoberts made two fouls shortly after he went up. He was a little anxious to play as a substitute, but the more he wanted to perform, the more problems he had.
The key is that the Jazz's two inside players are sometimes hard to defend against, but sometimes it is not that difficult. Xiang Chu still has an advantage when he grows taller.
When Xiang Chu appeared again, he faced this year's Tanhua Show, Enes Kante.
Kanter directly wanted to play singles when he saw Xiang Chu appearing on the court. He was praised by many people as the best inside player in this class. He was also a beast-level guy before entering the NBA. Of course, he had to abuse his inside player in the same class to show his strength.
The other party actually wanted to eat him directly, and Xiang Chu was immediately unhappy. Everyone was rookie and was so unpretentious. Just come, just come, because they were afraid of the girls.
Kanter took the ball back and sat inside, and his other hand still had a little elbow-mounted smell.
Xiang Chu held on tightly and fought hard with force. He might have been crushed half a year ago, but the crazy strength training these few months is not fake.
Not giving Kant is not a pure power insider. His physical contact is to affect the opponent's defense. He sat in and turned around and took action very softly.
Before entering the NBA, he abused many people with this trick.
After Kanter discovered that Xiang Chu was not so easy to bully, he immediately turned around and pressed his arms forward and stretched out a half hooks. His move was very gentle.
Xiang Chu felt nervous. He focused all his strength on confrontation, and the interference was not good.
But Kant did not make the ball well, and Xiang Chu's height still affected him, and the ball went out of the basket.
"Pussy." Xiang Chu sneered disdainfully, not pretending to be better than when.
"You are the woman." Kante was not an honest person, so he immediately criticized, "I will fuck you hard. Being lucky starter won't tell you anything. I will tell you what a strong inside player is."
Enes Kanter has always felt that he is the best player of this class. He fell to third place because he had received illegal discounts and could not represent the school in the NCAA to further show off his own performance. So he was eager to perform.
Unfortunately, he chose the wrong person as the target of establishing his authority. In the next matchup, Xiang Chu paid more attention and did not forget to interfere with his long arms during the confrontation.
Like he said, he is improving every game.
Chapter completed!
