Chapter 18 Tucker: I can't stand it
After being insulted by Lin Yu, Tucker's anger began to rise, and he dribbled the ball and chose to break through.

Lin Yu accurately predicted Tucker's breakthrough route and used his speed advantage to block Tucker's breakthrough route.

bump!
With the sound of muscles colliding, Lin Yu stood still like a mountain.

There was a hint of surprise in Tucker's eyes. Although he was only predicted to be a second-round pick, his strength was also top-notch in the NCAA.

Generally, the inside players cannot withstand Tucker's breakthrough.

"Is this your strength? Tucker is trying harder!"

"You asked for this!"

After hearing Lin Yu's trash talk, Tucker's anger level rose again.

Dribble the ball, take a step back, and then accelerate again. Bang!

As the sound of muscles colliding rang out again, Tucker rushed towards Lin Yu with all his strength.

Lin Yu was like a towering mountain, still motionless.

Shhh!
Seeing that Tucker failed to push Lin Yu, the fans at the Gallagher-Eibar Arena directly expressed their ridicule towards Tucker with a barrage of boos.

When Tucker heard the boos, his face first turned red, and then he became even more annoyed!

As the core of the Longhorns, he led the team to an outstanding record of 9 wins and 1 loss.

When has Tucker ever been treated with such contempt?
With endless anger, Tucker once again used the same tank breakthrough as James, trying to force his way through Lin Yu.

bump!
The result this time remained unchanged, Lin Yu remained as motionless as a mountain.

"Is this your strength? That's right, you are still too young now."

Tucker has just entered college. According to the original history, he participated in the NBA draft in 2006.

In other words, Tucker's current level is actually not enough for the NBA.

Increasing his weight to 106KG, combined with the previous strength training, Lin Yu's strength increased again.

At this time, Lin Yu's strength has reached 89 points. Except for a few players in the entire NCAA, basically no one is stronger than Lin Yu!
And these few people obviously do not include the current PJ Tucker.

young! ?
Tucker was stunned, and then his eyes seemed to be filled with flames of anger.

He and Lin Yu are both freshmen, in other words, they are of the same age.

Say he is young!

This statement is not very hurtful, but it is extremely insulting.

top!
Tucker tried desperately to push Lin Yu away, but Lin Yu remained motionless.

Looking at Tucker on his chest, Lin Yu felt his anger, but so what?
Competitive sports are based on strength!
Won!

Smoking, drinking and perming hair are all true to one's nature.

Lost!

Eating an egg-filled pancake is a sin.

What if Tucker is dissatisfied?
The image of Tucker desperately trying to push Lin Yu away appeared on the big screen of the stadium.

Seeing this scene, many fans in the Gallagher Eibar Arena laughed so hard that they fell over.

A small number of Longhorns fans covered their faces at this time, pretending not to know Tucker.

Damn it.
As an inside player, Lin Yu did not move at all even after being blocked several times, and it even seemed that Lin Yu did not exert any strength.

Such a thing happened in an era that advocated bloody and violent fighting.

The word "humiliating" cannot describe Tucker's current state.

So embarrassing!

Smith, who was commentating on the scene, started teasing Tucker at this time.

"Facing Lin Yu, PJ Tucker, who boasted before the game, was completely blocked by Lin Yu's defense."

“Charles, I heard that Tucker’s template is you, do you have anything to say now?”

When Barkley heard this, he immediately began to deny it.

He would never admit that the guy who was embarrassing himself on the court was based on him. "Kenny, don't talk nonsense. I have never admitted that the model of PJ Tucker was me."

"Lin Yu's role model should be me. We are both strong, talented, and handsome No. 4 players."

"Lin Yu is a 10-centimeter-tall flying pig! I won't accept any rebuttal!"

"Charles, you are just a short and stocky power forward. How can you be the template for Lin Yu?"

"What's wrong with being short and stocky? Isn't he a power forward? Besides, Lin Yu is as handsome as me!"

Gan!
Smith really wants to hammer this fat guy to death!
Can we please have some shame?
Does Ning's face have anything to do with the word handsome?

"Charles, you just want to give Lin Yu the nickname of 10-centimeter-tall flying pig. Does Lin Yu want it?"

"I am one of the top 50 NBA stars. How could he not be happy to be called a superstar?!"

Barkley was very confident at this time.

"Charles, why don't we interview Lin Yu after the game and ask him!"

"I agree. I believe Lin Yu will definitely accept this title and become my successor."

The corners of Smith's mouth twitched slightly.

Get lost
Smith now has a new understanding of Barkley's shamelessness.

How come Lin Yu became your successor in such a short time?

Courtside.

When old Kenny saw this scene, a smile appeared on his serious face.

He was looking for the power forward position to deal with PJ Tucker and found Lin Yu by accident.

Now seeing that PJ Tucker was completely blocked by Lin Yu, he was naturally very satisfied.

Many scouts were not surprised at this time, because Tucker's talent was too far behind Lin Yu.

Although Tucker was blown hard before the game started, as professionals they knew very well that Tucker could not cause too much trouble to Lin Yu on the offensive end.

Coach Zhang didn’t know what to say at this moment.

Before he suffered the loss, he was very worried that Lin Yu might suffer a loss against PJ Tucker.

结果
That's it! ?
I worried for nothing!

However, Coach Zhang suddenly remembered that PJ Tucker seemed to be a player known for his defense.

If Lin Yu's offensive end is like Tucker's now.
on the field.

Snapped!
Looking at Tucker on his chest, Lin Yu directly cut the ball and successfully cut the ball with the advantage of his wingspan.

Then he dribbled the ball and led the Cowboys to counterattack. This time, Lin Yu dribbled across half court and came to the top of the arc.

The players cooperated well to create space for Lin Yu, allowing Lin Yu to play alone.

PJ Tucker looked at Lin Yu in front of him, his eyes filled with flames of anger.

He now wants to use his proud defense to regain the face he just lost.

There are many defensive stalwarts in the NBA, but they can also be divided into different defensive types.

For example, Scottie Pippen and "Little Prince" Prince rely on their height and long arms to complete defense.

Fans who have watched PJ Tucker's games know that Tucker's defense is mainly based on confrontation.

That's right!

Just go up and confront!
Many players are not very accurate in three-point shooting during training, but they often miss shots in games.

The problem lies in the confrontation.

The most typical example is roughly, roughly in the original history, why couldn't it be played in the NBA?

His general footwork in the paint was praised even by the Sharks.

But in the NBA, facing high-intensity confrontations, he basically can't use it!
Fierce confrontation can not only wear out the opponent's touch, but also consume the opponent's physical strength.

PJ Tucker's defense is not so sophisticated, but defending opponents through confrontation is very simple and practical!
