In fact, these reporters are very well-informed. They have long inquired about how Ranbir has resumed training in the past two years.
Wang Yi's dunk almost killed this guy.
And this guy's recovery process is very long. Even though the current medical conditions are much better than those of his father, Bill Laimbeer, it only takes three to five months to recover from a major injury, but it still took this guy half a year.
It took time to recover from the injury, and it took another half a year to return to a state where I could train.
It can be seen how serious the injuries Wang Yi caused to him that time.
The reporter asked the third question about Doug Laimbeer.
"Will you still let him mark the opponent's key players on the court? For example, Wang Yi. We know that he will scare the opponent's key players."
This time it was Middleton who answered.
"These are the coach's tactical arrangements and are not something we can control."
Another reporter asked a question relatively late: "Actually, what we want to ask is, will he continue to cripple people?"
Hearing this, Antetokounmpo frowned.
In fact, everyone knows why they signed Doug Laimbeer, but there are some things you can't say. If you say it, it will not look good on both sides.
He stared at the reporter with a cold face and answered after a moment:
"Basketball is a competitive sport, not a fighting sport. And even if it is a fighting game, I believe that no player will rush to defeat the opponent. Everyone is just trying to win. If it really causes injury to the opponent,
Then I can only say that he didn’t do it on purpose.”
"In short, we will play tougher during the game, and playing tough often leads to injuries."
Antetokounmpo's remarks are not problematic for Laimbeer's teammates, but they made many fans scoff.
"Brother Antetokounmpo is the dishwashing liquid, this is easy to clean."
"It seems that he is clearing his name for Doug Laimbeer, but in fact he is clearing his name."
"Doug Laimbeer had three kills with one kick, and he once tiptoed Irving. They are basically the same breed."
"Playing tough and playing dirty are two different things."
Antetokounmpo ignored the fans' comments.
He has long since learned to look at all this with a normal mind.
Anyway, after what happened with Irving, no matter what he said, someone would scold him.
Players from both sides entered the venue at 7pm that day.
When Wang Yi entered the venue, he saw that the first row was filled with big names from all walks of life.
Like Jay Chou, Will Smith, Dwayne Johnson, Tiger Woods.
There were also celebrities like Swifty Swift, Britney Spears, Rihanna and many more.
Originally, both Wang Yi and James had their own traffic. When these two teamed up, almost the whole world's attention was focused on the Kings, and today's Christmas season game is regarded as a preview of the finals, so it is natural to prepare for it.
Attract attention.
Moreover, Wang Yi saw Wang Yiren waving to him in the fourth row of the audience.
Today there are more than 30 celebrities from all walks of life in China, so it’s okay for Wang Yi to come.
Today's starting lineup for the Bucks is.
Point guard Holiday.
Shooting guard Grayson Allen.
Small forward Middleton.
Power forward Antetokounmpo.
Center Lopez.
Don't underestimate their lineup.
Among this lineup, Antetokounmpo has entered the best team three times.
Two-time All-Defensive First Team selection.
Also won the best defensive player once.
Holiday was named to the All-Defensive Team three times and the Second Team to the All-Defensive Team.
Coupled with their big center Lopez, this greatly increased the defensive intensity of the entire lineup.
It is with this lineup that they have achieved the league's top defensive efficiency in these 20-plus games.
Coupled with Antetokounmpo's huge lethality, Middleton's mid-range shot and Holiday's offensive ability.
This allowed the Bucks to reach the top spot in the Eastern Conference.
Valley
And their record also gives the Bucks some ambition.
From the perspective of the Bucks, the Kings' current play style, which revolves around Wang Yi and James, is difficult for other teams to defend, but it is easy for the Bucks to defend.
Because the Bucks have Antetokounmpo.
Antetokounmpo is tall and has long arms. He can cover this central axis, making it difficult for him to pass the ball.
At the same time, there is Lopez defending inside them. Even if someone cuts in, it will be difficult to take a shot in front of Lopez.
In other words, the Bucks' lineup is the King's style of play.
Therefore, everyone on the Bucks team, from the head coach to the bench players, are full of confidence in this game.
As for Doug Laimbeer, he did not start.
For the Bucks, he is only a strategic weapon, not a conventional weapon.
The Kings' starting lineup remains unchanged.
Paul, Wang Yi.
Danny, James and Capela.
Their lineup has been verified through many games.
Of all the Kings' current lineups, this lineup has the best balance of defensive efficiency and offensive efficiency.
This lineup wins the most points against the opponent.
So now it has basically been fixed, and as long as the starting lineup is basically the same lineup.
When Wang Yi came to the stadium, there was a systematic voice in his mind.
But this time it's not a sign-in, but a task issued by the system.
[System task: complete five blocks in a single quarter.]
[Task reward: The blocking success rate is increased to 30%.]
This reward seems to be more suitable for today's game.
Soon the two sides came to the midfield for a jump ball.
Jump ball by Antetokounmpo and Capela.
Although Capela's talent is not bad, compared to Antetokounmpo, it is completely on a different level.
Antetokounmpo jumped to the ball easily and carried it through the frontcourt.
Then Middleton hit a mid-range shot.
Looking back at the Kings' offense, they still played James as the central pivot.
The Bucks implemented the defensive strategy laid out by the coach before the game, using Alphabet Song to block James.
Cover James with a pair of long arms.
In this way, when other Kings players move around James and cut, when James wants to pass the ball, both the passing field of view and the passing angle are much smaller than before.
On the first ball, James wanted to pass to Danny on the outside, but Antetokounmpo's long arm knocked the ball away.
And after Antetokounmpo dropped the ball, he immediately started a fast break.
He got the ball at the three-point line in the backcourt and took three steps with just one dribble.
Three steps later, he suddenly shot up and dunked from the free throw line.
Steal the ball in the backcourt and dunk with just one dribble.
Monsters like this are rare in the entire history of the NBA.
His operation also surprised all the Kings fans at the scene.
"Oh, monster, he is a monster after all."
"The Greek monster truly deserves its reputation."
"Looking at his condition tonight, I hope the Kings can withstand this guy's offense."
Wang Yi and James both looked at each other, and James shook his head slightly.
Even he is envious of Antetokounmpo's talent.
Chapter completed!
