Chapter 74: Gomez's Consciousness

The Cavaliers' baseball ball, James had already started since the backcourt reception. Gomez tried to stop him outside the three-point line, but was directly thrown away by James' breakthrough.

"I'll go!" When Li Rong realized, James had already entered the three-second zone and had to watch him make a layup.

"Ryan!" Li Rong shouted to Gomez, "Follow him and don't let him get up."

"Leave it to me!" Gomez patted his chest and then realized that it seemed that the one who gave him the order was a rookie who had not played a few games.

However, Gomez was very convinced of this rookie's performance.

He is a very self-aware person. He only participated in the draft at the age of 23. He was selected by the Celtics in the 5O ranking. He learned a lot from Paul Pierce in the rookie season.

Before entering this league, he had dreamed of making some achievements in the NBA in the future.

However, in the past two years, he has become 25 years old, and he is already very clear about how big the gap between him and those talented players is.

When Li Rong made his first official appearance and made those tricky and incredible passes on the court, he asked himself that he would never have such a passing vision. At that time, he knew that this guy would definitely enter the lineup one day.

But this day came faster than he expected. Li Rong conquered the audience in just one game and conquered the coaching staff in two more games. Everything happened so naturally.

Now, he has tried to start giving orders to his teammates on the field, and no one finds it abrupt.

This league is ultimately the world of the strong. The average career of ordinary players in the NBA is only 4.8 years, which is just the length of a rookie contract.

People who are not sure about their role positioning will be eliminated immediately. There are too many examples of this.

Unless you have the strength of an All-Star player, the team won't change anything for you.

After halftime, Gomez stayed outside the three-point line and waited for an opportunity. A pride like LeBron James would not distract too much attention from him.

Sure enough, after Li Rong activated the pick-and-roll with Jefferson again, James decisively gave up his defense and chose to step forward to participate in the blockade of Li Rong.

Gomez saw five or six players tangled in the middle, and then Li Rong was as if his eyes were on the back of his head, and a precise pass from the armpit was split.

Gomez received this incredible pass and raised his hand to shoot a three-pointer.

After the ball was shot, he still maintained a shooting hand shape for about one or two seconds, which was taught by Paul Pierce.

Pierce told him that this move is not just for being handsome, but for the brain to remember the angle between his palm and the basket so that he can quickly find the feeling when shooting next time.

He thought what Pierce said was very reasonable, because no matter how much Pierce's shooting moves were celebrated, it was still ugly, and it could not be for the sake of being handsome.

However, his shooting was very accurate, just like the goal that hit the Nets.

Li Rong ran over and brimmed with him: "Lian! Beautiful job!"

After Gomez scored this goal, he kept in mind what Li Rong said to him just now and didn't let James get up. He started to lead the defense of James since he received the baseline ball, so that he wouldn't easily play the ball like the previous round.

But he didn't dare to get too close. He knew how terrifying James' instant activation was, and he knew very well that he could not keep up at all.

James frowned. Gomez's full-game lead defense made it impossible for him to easily add, and his defense method was exactly the same as Li Rong, giving him enough shooting space.

Looking at Li Rong staring at him at the basket, James knew that it would not be as easy as last time.

The opponent's defense must be paid!

James chose to directly pull out the shot from outside the three-point line, or his habitual left-leaning posture.

The ball was very straightforward.

85 to 84, the Timberwolves had only one point left to lead.

Li Rong continued to find Jefferson to play pick-and-roll. Daz, who had changed defense, could not stop his scoring at all, so he could only send James to come and prepare to assist in defense at any time.

However, the Cavaliers' defensive rotation was very fast this time, and Gomez did not miss this.

Pavlovic was staring at him from a distance. As long as Li Rong passed the ball, he could get up and interfere with Gomez's shooting at any time.

Li Rong directly passed a powerful pass to the basket.

James thought it was not good. At this time, six frontcourt players on both sides were standing above the free throw line. The inside line was absolutely empty. He stretched out one foot to block the pass, but it was too late.

Gerald Green received the ball from the basket, jumped on the spot and dunked with both hands.

"pretty!"

The two of them hit their palms, and from the bottom line of Gerald Green's back-run, Li Rong noticed him from the corner of his eyes.

87 to 84, the Timberwolves led by three points.

James shook his head and took Guden's baseline ball, dribbled the ball outside the three-point line in the frontcourt and pulled it out.

Watching the basketball fly into the basket, James immediately patted his chest. After the ball entered, he had already made 6 of 1O shots from outside the three-point line in this game.

This three-pointer also suppressed the huge audience's voice in the center of the target.

Many home spectators have already developed a sense of despair about James' strength. No matter what difficulties this man faces, he seems to be able to find a way.

"It's okay!" Li Rong shouted to his teammates, "He can't win the ball alone!"

In the next round, Li Rong passed the ball to Gomez outside the three-point line again. Gomez received the ball and made a steadily shot.

The gap once again reached three-pointers, and Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown requested a timeout and made adjustments to the team's lineup.

"Big Z" Ilgoskas was replaced and replaced with veteran Devin Brown.

James finally breathed a sigh of relief. Daz was completely a side effect on the court during this period and could not keep up with the defensive end.

Although this adjustment is a bit late, it is still timely. However, in this way, he will play as a power forward and face Li Rong again.

Li Rong brought him much more pressure on the defensive end than Gomez, but it doesn't matter, James has absolute confidence in his skills.

The suspension ended and both sides returned to the court.

At this time, the game time was less than five minutes left, and the final moment of the final battle had arrived.

James' first offensive choice to play pick-and-roll with Gooden, and now Jefferson has become the slowest one on the field, and he cannot defend to the three-point line.

Li Rong was blocked by Guden and watched helplessly as James ignored Jefferson's backup defense and hit a mid-range shot near the free throw line.

87 to 86, the score difference between the two sides is only one point.
