Chapter 68 Crazy Voting!

"I want to ask everyone at the scene, was the Hammer a steal or a block just now?" At this time, the Suns' on-site commentator yelled.

"Steal!"

"Seal!"

There are all kinds of shouts, and the response to this question is very enthusiastic.

In front of the Hawks bench, Stotts shook his head, feeling a little helpless.

"This rookie is so skilled in defense?" He was also a little surprised.

Like him, Raheem was a little surprised.

If it was a serious block just now, he wouldn't be surprised, but no, this is like a pass steal, a steal and a shot, isn't it a block shot? Has this rookie practiced steals and shots?

"Ha ha!"

Frank laughed for the first time today.

Without him, this steal or block is too morale-boosting. That is, Marbury's layup was a bit bad.

"Jason, tell Sharif to go back to his place and get points."

The Eagles coach changed his mind. He saw Li Ba's sharp and clean defense, and felt that it was a bit difficult to beat him today.

In the next moment, the Suns' luck seemed to come back a little bit. Relying on Li Ba's rebounding ability, they began to slowly chase points.

By the end of the first half, the score was 55:46, and the Suns were still 9 points behind.

In the second half of the second quarter, the Eagles' No. 2 starter Dean Glover took two shots, but he missed, and his hands seemed to cool down.

Back in the locker room, the atmosphere of the Suns is not bad, because the point difference is still within 10 points, everything still has to be played.

"This is Li Ba's data today?"

At the bottom line, Chen Hong held his record sheet, his hands trembling a little.

Other Chinese reporters also gathered around.

In 18 minutes of playing time, he made 2 of 2 shots, 0 of 1 free throw, scored 4 points, 13 rebounds, 0 blocks, 3 steals and 3 assists. This is Li Ba's performance in the first half.

"If this is the end of the second half, what stats will be played? 10+20+5+5?" A reporter asked tremblingly.

"Other statistics depend on luck, mainly rebounding ability, but today the Suns' shooting percentage is too low and they have a lot of rebounds, so they grabbed a few more." A reporter said.

"I think the main reason is that Li Ba's rebounding ability is too strong. This is three consecutive games with 10 rebounds, adding up to 43, and there is still the second half." Another reporter said excitedly.

"With this rebound, even if he doesn't score a single point, he doesn't need other blocks or steals. He still has a foothold in the NBA! Li Ba can gain a firm foothold now."

Chen Hong couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and shouted.

"Hey, did you pay attention, there is no cover today." A reporter said in surprise.

"It's not surprising. The Eagles center he was facing didn't attack. Who was he to block? After all, Li Ba's movement speed is still a bit slow. Otherwise, his defensive area will definitely be larger. If he participates in the defense , will definitely win more blocks." A reporter sighed.

"That's not bad!"

"Yeah, Dayao can't match his rebounding ability."

"Hey, is there any news about the national team?"

"I didn't hear it. I think there should be some action from the higher-ups. It's not easy for us to produce an NBA player in China, and he came in with his own ability. Can the higher-ups not notice?"

"One attack and one defense!"

"In my opinion, Li Ba and Dazhi are more suitable."

"How to say?"

"Think about it, Dayao and Li Ba move at about the same speed, which limits their range to the basket. What a big piece of land, it's crowded! If Li Ba plays Da Zhi, Da Zhi can be pulled outside to play, and Li Ba Isn't it a perfect match for Ba to guard the basket?"

"It's true what you said! It's a pity, Da Zhi, does he really not want to go back?"

"It must have been the idea last year. His original coach couldn't see him and completely cut off contact, but it may be different now. He can't make the roster in the Clippers and can't play. This is the opposite of his original goal. Thoughts may change."

"At the beginning, I definitely didn't want to go back, but then I didn't dare to go back when I became stiff."

"Let's not talk about him anymore. For this matter, the people on the Internet are all scolded by the higher-ups, but if you want me to say it, a slap can't make a sound."

"I'm worried about Li Ba right now. With his temper, who knows what will happen if the higher-ups send someone to contact him?"

"Stop talking, stop talking..."

In the locker room of the home team, Frank is considering whether to let Li Ba play in the third quarter, or let the substitute play as originally planned?

In the end, he decided to let other insiders.

He has to think about the whole season, not just this one game.

Besides, Li Ba, an undrafted rookie, started for 30 minutes, which is already very good compared to the other two first-round picks this year.

The second half began, and Li Ba sat on the bench in the third quarter.

"Why, do we need rebounds for the Hammers?"

"Perhaps Frank is thinking about the unity of the team?"

"Is there something wrong with your physical fitness?"

Seeing Li Ba sitting on the bench, there was a lot of discussion in the audience.

Jack Voskull came off the bench. He has average ability and weaker defense than Li Ba, but his offensive range is larger than Li Ba's. However, his scoring ability is similar and his accuracy is average. He can only be regarded as a rotation player.

In fact, it's not that Li Ba can't shoot, but he doesn't shoot because he thinks his shooting percentage is low.

So far, his few points are all due to dunks, with a 100% hit rate. If it weren't for a free throw that broke the golden body, his shooting percentage would still be 100%. Of course, the true hit rate is still 100%.

In the third quarter, the Hawks kicked off the baseline.

For the first ball, the Eagles starting shooting guard Dean Glover asked for the ball from the 45-degree three-point line on the left wing.

Jason Terry thought of Glover's performance in the first quarter and passed it on.

Try Dean's luck first, and if it's cold, call Raheem according to the coach's arrangement, that's what he thought.

As soon as his thoughts passed, Glover made a three-pointer.

"Shua!"

hollow ball.

Counterpoint defensive black hole Joe Johnson just stretched out and looked back.

Seeing this, Li Ba directly covered his head with a white towel.

"Aw!"

Glover growled defiantly at Johnson, and immediately stepped back.

Marbury received a baseline serve from center Jack Voskull and drove upfield.

Just as he was about to cross the center line, Eagles point guard Jason Terry on the other side of the center line suddenly pounced on him. He immediately turned around and was about to cross the center line, but at the moment of turning around, he crossed paths with Glover However, the ball in his hand is gone.

"Steal!"

The Hawks commentator roared excitedly.

"Fuck!"

Seeing that the old horse made a mistake again, Li Ba covered the white towel he had just taken off again. He felt troubled today, really troubled.

Glover felt the adrenaline in his body like a rising tide, pushing his excitement to the extreme, and he enjoyed the exciting feeling very much.

He winds through the frontcourt and comes to a sudden stop at the left-wing three-point line.

Behind him, Marbury was entangled by Terry, and the opposing player Joe Johnson didn't catch up. He even had time to aim at the basket before making a shot.

"Shua!"

Another hollow ball.
