I'm good at basketball too

Why is the Cavaliers who are the number one in the Eastern Conference overwhelmed by the Hornets who are only in the Western Conference playoffs?
In fact, this matter is easy to explain.

First of all, the Hornets played like this when Li Ran didn't play much. If Li Ran didn't play as a coach this season, but kept starting steadily, the Hornets' record would definitely not be what it is now.

In addition, the Cavaliers' lineup this season is completely centered on James. Now that James is absent from the battle, the Cavaliers lack the backbone, and their original strength will be greatly reduced.

The most important thing is that Li Ran gave a death order before the game.

This game is a fight to the death.

So, at the beginning of the game, the imposing Hornets pushed the knight to the ground and gave him a blast.

Although Irving and Love both have experience in leading teams, whether it is the Cavaliers or the Timberwolves after James left, they are all big teams in the league. They are the ones that work hard for the No. One is not so much being the boss, as it is brushing data.

Under the influence of various factors, the Cavaliers are simply unable to compete with the Hornets led by four-time FMVP winner Li Ran.

The Cavaliers returned to the court after the timeout ended, but still could not regain any disadvantage.

Li Ran took the lead in this game and treated it with the attitude of playing in the finals. The Cavaliers players simply cannot adapt to such a high intensity.

At the end of the first quarter, the score on the field was a bit shocking.

12-32, the Cavaliers only scored 12 points in the first quarter, and they were led by a full 20 points by the Hornets.

Irving scored 2 points, 2 assists and 4 turnovers in the first quarter. Love made two three-pointers and scored 6 points. TT scored 4 points by grabbing offensive rebounds in the interior. No one scored again.

To put it bluntly, James is not as good as playing this game. Even if he dies, he will die standing up. With him on the court, the Cavaliers will not be beaten so badly.

However, James, who cherishes his feathers, chose the most wrong path among all the choices, and walked on without looking back.

Li Ran's statistics in the first quarter were a bit strange.

8分5篮板4助攻3抢断2盖帽。

Such data made everyone frightened.

If he continues to play at the pace of the first quarter, what kind of data will he hand over?
Three pairs?

Quadruple double?

Even the legendary data that has never been recorded in the history of the NBA, as high as the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. . .

Five pairs?

James' face was extremely dark, but he still clapped his hands and loudly encouraged his teammates on the sidelines during the break.

The general idea is that you have to work harder and don't let your opponent be tortured too badly. If he is tortured too badly, I won't be able to bear it on my face.

However, the morale of the Cavaliers who were beaten up has dropped to the bottom. No matter how hard James pours chicken soup, he can't restore the morale of the army.

On the battlefield, [-] sentences of "Follow me" are not as effective as "Follow me".

In the second quarter, Li Ran replaced Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian with Jokic and Chaimeng.

Strange to say, in another time and space, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian had no intersection with Jokic and Chaimeng at all. When Jokic and Chaimeng entered the league, the two Great Walls of China had already faded out of the NBA. is retired.

But in this world, the four of them not only connected but also played on the same team.

But Li Ran, Clay and JB still stayed on the court.

This lineup focuses on a smooth operation, especially after Li Ran made up for his last shortcoming this season - organization, it is even more gorgeous.

This magnificence does not mean that players like the Clippers are flying around in the sky, but that the ball suddenly enters the basket in dazzling conduction.

With Li Ran present, the Hornets' organizational power is not in the hands of Jokic and Chaimeng, but in the hands of Li Ran.

But there is still one of the two people who is in the high position or at the top of the arc to support. Li Ran will pass the ball at the most suitable time. Some balls are not easy to pass if you have a good vision. It will be easier to pass through a hand in the middle.

As for when to pass the ball, that's up to Li Ran.

Under Li Ran's strong performance, although Owen and Love are still on the court, they still can't make any waves.

Li Ran's tireless figure can be seen in every corner of the court.

You know, although Li Ran played very few official games this season, he trains with the Hornets every day and plays training games together. The training games in the Hornets are more intense than most NBA regular seasons.

And the physical energy he reserves can be squandered in the few games he plays.

In the second quarter, the situation was still one-sided. The Cavaliers could only watch helplessly as the Hornets mercilessly made the point difference widen.

What can best reflect the strength gap between the two teams?

Definitely score.

However, scoring is affected by many factors, such as the state of both players, offensive shooting percentage, defensive success rate, rebounding, that is, the number of offensive rounds, and so on.

However, Li Ran now has almost all the right time, place, people and people.

He is now at the golden age, playing at the Hornets' home court, the sidelines are full of fans supporting him, and the opponent's core James has not yet played. . .

In this situation, Li Ran completed the second triple-double of his career at halftime.

21分11篮板10助攻5抢断5盖帽。

To be precise, he officially completed his triple-double at 21 minutes and 21 seconds of the game.

This time can be ranked third in the entire NBA history.

No.1 is Jim Tucker in 1955, with a triple-double in 17 minutes.

No.2 was in the first half of last year, Westbrook got a triple-double in 20 minutes and 17 seconds.

In another time and space, before Li Ran traveled through time, the fastest triple-double record had been set.

No one else broke this record, but Teacher Jokicyo, whom Li Ran is currently cultivating.

Jokic scored a triple-double in just 2018 minutes and 14 seconds in 33.

This record is estimated to be unprecedented.

What is the concept of getting a triple-double in a little more time in one quarter?
During this period of time, most players may not have even achieved the easiest scoring in double figures.

And Jokic has not only scored in double figures, but also grabbed ten rebounds, and by the way directly assisted his teammates to score at least 20 points. . . .

However, Li Ran created a record that is exclusive to him.

He is the player with the shortest time to complete 5X5 in NBA history.

This record is estimated to be broken by only him.

And after halftime, what is the score between the two sides?

21-63, the Cavaliers only scored 9 points in a single quarter in the second quarter. Not only could they not score, but they could not restrain the Hornets' offense at all.

Because Li Ran almost took over all the offense and organization of the Hornets, you must know that he passed many balls to Jokic or Chaimeng to deal with, and the statistics did not reflect his role in the team's offense at all.

Theoretically, this game has entered garbage time. The Hornets' main force can still play for one quarter at most. Can Li Ran continue to break through himself and complete the fourth quadruple-double in NBA history, or even the first five-double record? ?

All fans are looking forward to it.

And James, after returning to the locker room with the players at halftime, did not reappear on the sidelines.

Now that Li Ran has said to fight to the death, the Hornets will definitely not care about any unspoken rules in this game. . .

In the third quarter, Li Ran still deployed the main lineup, but let Clay rest for a while off the court and put on a blood cloth, while he himself came to the second position.

Li Ran's appearance at the second position only means one thing.

He will put most of his energy on the offensive end, and hand over the tasks of organization and defense to his teammates.

Fortunately, whether it is Blood Cloth, Butler, Chasing Dream or Jokic, they are not defensive loopholes, and they are even quite strong on the defensive end.

Moreover, the abilities of the four of them are quite comprehensive, and each of them has organizational skills.

Organizational abilities are also above average.

What kind of "surprise" will Li Ran bring to the Cavaliers in the third quarter with his full attack?
After Owen came on the court in the third quarter, he was secretly relieved to see that his opponent was no longer Li Ran.

But Dion Waiters had a sour face.

In the first two quarters, he had already felt Li Ran's terrifying dominance on both offense and defense without directly facing Li Ran. Now, when he directly faced Li Ran, Waiters had already foreseen his tragic end.

The Cavaliers' touch didn't warm up after the halftime break. Facing the Hornets' high-intensity defense, their first attack ended with a strike from Irving's mid-range shot.

As soon as the offense was over, Li Ran had already received the offensive rebound and started running towards the frontcourt.

Blood Cloth and Butler followed Li Ran from left to right, surrounding him closely like two guards following their king.

The Cavaliers couldn't keep up with Li Ran's speed, and with the two players beside them distracting their defensive attention, they couldn't effectively interfere with Li Ran.

Li Ran's classic actual free throw line was once again engraved by him. As soon as he entered the three-point line, Li Ran took a big step with the ball. With just one step, the sole of his foot firmly stepped on the free throw line, and then he singled With the ball in his hand, the muscles on his legs instantly exerted force, and the whole person flew straight up.

Gliding in the air for a long distance, even giving people the illusion that he took several steps in the air.

In the end, Li Ran dunked the ball into the basket like a big bird.

Seeing Li Ran close the ball at the three-point line, all the fans subconsciously stood up.

In the end, when Li Ran dunked the ball into the basket, the audience was almost boiling.

Everyone cheered Li Ran's name wildly.

Finally, the sounds come together and become a single word.

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

The torrent of voices of MVP resounded in the huge venue, making one's scalp tingle unbearably.

And these cheers and praises are all given to the player wearing the No. 0 jersey on the field.

From China——

Li Ran!

Li Ran stood under the basket, the ball rolling slowly at his feet. He raised his hands and waved slowly towards the fans.

The momentum is disdainful, like a king.

"Li Ran no longer participates in the slam dunk contest, which is really a great pity for the league."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to this year's slam dunk contest. Timberwolves' rookie Zach LaVine has great physical fitness, and his dunk style is a bit like the elegant version of Carter. I hope Li Ran can have the opportunity to compete with LaVine. "

The commentator chatted on the sidelines.

There is no suspense in this game, they can only find a way to find something to do.

Next, Li Ran completely controlled the situation of the game. He was omnipotent on the offensive end and took care of all the team's scoring in the next 3 minutes.

The Cavaliers' offense is still at a standstill.

Seeing that the score difference has reached 50 points, everyone knows that the outcome of this game is destined to be a bloody massacre.

The only difference is how many points the Hornets can kill the Cavaliers.

Halfway through the third quarter, the score has come to 29:80, and the Cavaliers have fallen behind by 51 points.

Double killing is not enough to describe the current score gap. The Hornets are only seven points away, and the total score will be three times that of the Cavaliers.

And Li Ran scored 12 points with extremely high efficiency in this half of the quarter, raising his total score to 33 points.

33分15篮板11助攻6抢断6盖帽，这又是一场记录之夜。

Li Ran only started two games after his comeback. The first game broke the single-game scoring record for active players. What kind of new record will he set in this game?
The game was still going on. At the end of the third quarter, Li Ran scored 19 points in a single quarter, raising his score to 40 points.

34 to 95, the point difference widened to 61 points.

"Li Ran is very close to his first quadruple-double or even a fifth-double in his career, but the fourth quarter is already a complete garbage time. I wonder if Li Ran will continue to play?"

The answer is - yes!
In the fourth quarter, Li Ran continued to brazenly appear on the court, which made the fans on the sidelines burst into an uproar.

Really beat to death, right?
The expressions of the Cavaliers players immediately changed, and Irving, who remained on the court symbolically, immediately looked at Li Ran with an unkind expression.

The smell of gunpowder on the field became stronger immediately.

But Li Ran is not afraid.

He is surrounded by Blood Cloth, Butler and Dream Chaser, so it's hard to say if they really fight.

The physical contact between the players on both sides increased immediately, and the small movements also increased.

This smell of gunpowder reached its peak when Tristan Thompson substituted Green.

Butler walked up without hesitation and pushed TT away.

Not to be outdone, the Eight Wise Kings pressed his forehead against Butler, spitting obscenities non-stop.

Such a humiliating loss of the game is already shameful enough, can it be impossible to fight?
Just when the conflict between the two sides was about to break out and the referee was walking around anxiously to stop the players from both sides, Li Ran stood up.

He first glanced at TT with cold eyes, and then signaled the referee to make his own punishment.

Relieved, the referee expelled TT cleanly, and then gave Butler a technical foul.

Li Ran nodded, this penalty was quite reasonable.

He comforted Dreamcatcher who was lying on the stretcher, and then replaced Harris.

The feedback from the team doctor was okay, it was not a serious injury, which made Li Ran heave a sigh of relief.

Next, start the liquidation! (End of chapter)
