Chapter 497
After Stephenson applied for a trade, the Raptors would have three more games to play.
After the first game, the Raptors team can rest assured that Stephenson has no problems. He knows very well that if he wants to make others look up to him, he must first play a wonderful performance.
He still showed great energy and tried his best as soon as he came on the court.
For a time, there were many people asking about the price of Stephenson.
Stephenson's selling points are:
For a rookie contract, if the remaining half of the season is included, it can be used directly for 1.5 seasons.
Immediately strong, if it weren't for Dragic, he would be the starter of the Raptors.
There's still room for improvement, and this is only his third year, and he's shown potential as a starter on most teams.
There was an endless stream of people who came to ask the price, but none of the chips offered was satisfactory.
This is a matter for the management, and the season will continue.
Before the arrival of the All-Star weekend, the Raptors will fly to the Big West to play the last match of the season with the Kings in Sacramento, and then they can usher in the holiday.
Most will remember what an amazing thing Evans did last time in the center of the lane.
The Raptors have won 49 games so far and only lost 5 games, one of which was lost to the Kings.
Just as many teams will be mentioned for losing a regular-season game to the Bulls in 1996, so will the Kings.
Now, goodbye at home.
Evans is fighting high.
In Jacques Arena, Li Xing met Evans, the king who was in full swing and his little brother Cousins standing in front of Li Xing.
Putting Cousins aside, Evans' progress has exceeded imagination.
When Li Xing saw him last time, he only had a score of 90, but now it has risen to 91.
Evans was the savior the Kings were looking for.
He came from one of the rotten neighborhoods of the city where no one—no matter how talented—was completely immune to it.
The stark contrasts in Evans' life are emblematic: innate basketball skills, close-quarters death shots.On the court, his explosive and fluid performance made his team's game extremely easy, and he was nicknamed "Too Easy" for this reason.
But everything off the court is extremely difficult, before the day when he can receive his salary check from the NBA.
Now that everything is settled, Evans has officially become the leader of the Kings in the post-Weber era.
"Larch, I will not lose tonight, I will still score 30 points on your head, this is our home field!"
Cousins spoke excitedly, as if this was something that was destined to happen.
Li Xing's expression remained unchanged, as if mocking Cousins: "Well, I look forward to that moment."
After that, both sides returned to their own halftime warm-up.
Nothing seems to change.
On the Raptors side, they warmed up enthusiastically, with smiles on their faces, and sometimes a fancy dunk.
Stephenson is constantly talking to the teammates around him, as if he's going to be around for a long time.
No one mentioned that incident, it was a tacit understanding between teammates.
The game is about to start.
Li Xing played with his teammates.
"Tyreke, I'm a little nervous."
Evans never dreamed that Cousins would say this to him, and this fearless brat became nervous.
Should I tell him I'm a little nervous too?
Evans tried to smile: "Maybe, you can try to dunk a blue on Luckey's head, just like Dwyane Wade hit Varejao in the air, and then you can decompress."
NBA Survival Rule No. [-]: Any plan Evans utters can be regarded as farting.
Cousins didn't take Evans seriously at all, but what the other party said did relieve his pressure to a certain extent.
The referee's ball was thrown into the sky, and the game started with the cheers of the crowd.
Li Xing took the ball away.
"Damn it!"
Cousins roared unhappily, he wanted to hit the racket.
If he knew that Li Xing hadn't lost in jumping this season, he might be happier.
Beating Li Xing in the jump ball was Cousins' first goal, and obviously, he failed.
Then came the test of Dragic. Evans' defense did not relax at all. Just like those big guards who like to bully short open positions with their height, Evans is very good at using his size.
He can always use his body to make those guards who are far shorter than himself cry and cry.
Size is his advantage, and speed is Dragic's advantage.
The game has just started, and Dragic doesn't need to use speed to confront Evans.
So he passed the ball to Li Xing.
In less than a second, Li Xing took Cousins and scored with a hook.
"DeMarcus' defense needs to be a little bit more focused."
"Yes, his defense is useless."
The commentator criticized him directly.
Cousins didn't explain, he was used to it.
His quarrel with the coach, the dispute with the trainer, the experience of being kicked out of training, and the opportunity to graduate with 6 fouls.As well as complaining to fans about being overweight, sleepwalking on the court, and making those very low-level rules, etc., they were accused by fans.
The above things are commonplace for him. He has the talent to dominate both ends of the offense and defense, but he can't maintain his focus for a long time.
"Tyreke, I'm going to blow up that bastard, he's embarrassing me!" Cousins grumbled loudly.
"What are you going to do?"
Evans wanted to come up with another far-sighted plan.
But Evans didn't seem to appreciate it: "Just give me the ball, and I'll let you see how I blow him up."
Evans is very interested in how Li Xing prevents Cousins from being killed.
He pretended to be "oh you're awesome" on the surface, but he had other things on his mind.
The insiders of the Kings basically have Kato Hawk-level handwork.
There is Divac far away, and Cousins nearly.
Playing center on this team, if you can't dribble like a guard, can't make a few juggling passes like a street player, don't have comprehensive skills, and don't do some technical moves that violate people's perception of big men, it's almost impossible. Not fit to play inside for the Kings.
Oh, by the way, the most important thing about the Kings inside, one thing all inside should keep in mind: don't defend!Whoever defends is a puppy!
The inside line of the basket is definitely the type of player this team despises the most.
What to defend?Handsome is over!
The same is true for Cousins, a brat. He possesses a rare all-round skill, and he wants to get past Li Xing when he shoots the ball.
Li Xing came up tonight with the determination to prevent him from dying.
As a result, the bear reined in from the cliff, stopped suddenly before being blocked, and offered a straight-arm throw that was difficult to block.
direct hit.
This ball shows how delicate Cousins' skills are.
Even Evans, who is intent on watching the show, has to applaud Cousins. This ball is really beautiful.
"Larch."
Without Dragic's words, Li Xing sent the ball to him, and expressed his attitude with actions: Don't force me, give me the ball!
It's over, there's no point in saying anything
Li Xing's vengeance drove him to completely suppress Cousins.
Cousins' defense is a perfect tribute to the king's predecessors. Although he has outstanding talent, his defense is fully worthy of the word air.
Li Xing took the ball, turned around, jumped up, and shot.
Cousins' defensive output is all about roaring.
"Ahhh~~~"
If someone once told him that such defense can reduce the opponent's shooting rate, Li Xing can stop thinking of him as an idiot for the time being.
"Go in again!"
The commentator and the audience were very dissatisfied with Cousins' defense, and repeated complaints were ineffective.
Cousins is one of those bastards who don't get things done the more you talk about them.
It's not that he doesn't know what to do is right, he just doesn't like others nagging in his ears.
"DeMarcus, don't worry, you can't do this."
Evans calmly controlled the ball, relying on his height, directly ignored Dragic in front of him, and talked to Cousins through a bunch of people.
"The power of this dog day is too strong, I can't hold it~~~"
Cousins wailed, and Li Xing swallowed his body and pressed him behind him.
The huge body enveloped Cousins.
From Evans' point of view, Cousins was eaten.
What a monster.Cousins is so fat that he can be covered, this guy is really a monster.
Evans' contempt annoyed Dragic.
He wanted to steal, but as a result, Evans made a backhand change, and his strong body knocked Dragic away.
Saying that he is the point guard version of James is not just talking, not only is he taller than most point guards, but also has a similar breakthrough method.
Li Xing remembers that he liked to rely on rhythm in his rookie season, but now he is completely a small tank.
If you beat your body at a young age, what can you do when you are older?
Evans didn't come in to send the cap, he stopped outside the paint area, stiffened his body and made a throw.
also entered.
"DeMarcus, don't worry, let's take our time." Evans calmed Cousins' emotions in a good voice.
Cousins gritted his teeth and looked unhappy: "Give me another chance, I will, I will!"
"I believe you can get past him."
The rounds in which Li Xing, Cousins, and Evans hurt each other set the tone for this game.
High hit rate.
The fiery feeling can be transmitted to teammates. If you are so accurate as soon as you come up, others will follow suit.
Li Xing stopped playing forcefully, as if those two attacks were enough to make Cousins fall into the abyss, ran to the outside, and made a swift dragon interspersed with Middleton.
"That person's defense is terrible, don't be afraid!"
I don't know if he was bewitched by Li Xing, but Middleton took Li Xing's cover, stepped forward, and ran straight to the basket.
Cousins felt ashamed of being treated as a sick cat. In a rage, he forced himself up and gave Middleton an extremely serious foul, knocking him out of the air.
"Danger!"
In an instant, Li Xing turned on the system, and the moment Middleton landed, he directly used the healing potion on the opponent.
