NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 71

On the court, the game continues.

Because Li Ba took off for the second time and grabbed the rebound, time was delayed and he couldn't make a fast break. He threw it to Marbury, pushed forward, and ran forward quickly himself.

"Old bird, your stats are terrible, give the ball to the uncle, and the uncle will give you an assist." After passing the top arc, Li Ba yelled at Marbury.

Being yelled at by the rookie, Marbury's face was dark, but apart from the mistake, there was no other data to support it, and he just couldn't reply, feeling very depressed.

The right wing was occupied by the bully, and Li Ba stepped down to the low position on the left wing, pushing Ratliff out with a few blows.

To be honest, in the low post, in terms of strength alone, O'Neal in the league can give him a headache with his overweight. Now Malone can only match him in strength, and he has to rely on skill to win him.

Successfully positioned, he began to reach out for the ball.

This time Marbury gave the ball.

According to the Eagles' defense, when the ball reaches the basket, it is going to be double-teamed.

This time it was Li Ba, a rookie who attacked. Now we all know that he has no offensive ability except for dunking, so he didn't use double-teaming.

What's more, Ratliff, the two-time shot-blocking champion defending Li Ba, the Eagles players think he can handle Li Ba's offense at the basket.

Ratliff is also full of confidence. He wants to give Li Ba a shot and show this rookie some color.

From receiving the ball, the two began their offensive and defensive performances.

Li Ba played once in the first quarter, and he knew that Ratliff had good defensive skills and would not be hard on him, so his strength did not have much room for use, so this time he changed his offensive method and no longer Sit back with your hips for that trick.

He faces the basket directly.

There is a big difference between post-up and face-to-basket, which is the speed of attack.

The attack speed of the face basket is faster and the breakthrough is faster.

In the future, that is, next year, in 2004, the league will introduce the "illegal use of hands" rule to limit the wrapping defense outside the three-point line and enhance the league's face-to-basket offense, that is, because the face-to-basket offense is faster and more attractive. eyeball.

In fact, now Li Ba has also figured out a little bit. He has no turning speed, so his back attack is not strong, and strength alone cannot solve everything.

So what is his strongest point now?

Attacking the basket with one step forward and one step behind.

It is to attack the locked range within two meters of the outer end of the wingspan during the fly catching training.

In this movement, his frontal starting step is the fastest step of all his steps.

This step, so far, he has trained no less than [-] times, and he has formed a conditioned reflex.

Of course, he has used this action many times in rebounding, but in offense, he has never used it. He always uses back shots.

Now, he's going to try.

He made a "triple threat."

Seeing Li Ba facing three threats with baskets, Ratliff immediately stepped back half a step, sealed Li Ba's face with his left palm, blocking the shot vision, and blocked Li Ba's body with his right arm, ready to fight.

But in his heart, the main defense is Li Ba's breakthrough and attacking the basket. He has never seen Li Ba's shot.

This is also the reason why he took half a step back, he wanted to leave room for himself to react.

The whole audience was staring at Li Ba at this moment.

"This is his first time in a low-level basket, right? I hope it succeeds." Chen Hong thought to himself.

In fact, he also understands that he has seen Li Ba's fly catching training many times, and now he and Bill Duffy have seen Li Ba's fly catching training, and he knows that Li Ba's first step in frontal activation is considered very fast. So there is still hope for his noodle basket.

Li Ba holds the ball in front of his chest with both hands, supports his left foot in front, and touches the floor with his right foot behind him.

Suddenly, he took a sharp step with his right foot and began to break through to the right.In this step, he reserved his strength and did not give full play.

Ratliff reacted quickly and immediately slid to the left.

But Li Ba didn't really burst, it was a fake move.

His right foot was poked and closed.After Ratliff slipped into place, he tapped the floor with his right foot and stuck out for the second time.

This time it's on the left, and he's going to slip.

But again, it still didn't use all its strength, so it was still a feint.

Ratliff's defense was really strong, and he reacted again, making a side step and blocking towards the baseline.

Unfortunately, he found out that he had been fooled again, because Li Ba's right foot was also just poked and closed.

"Oops!"

Ratliff said anxiously.

Just when he had this thought, Li Ba stuck out his right foot for the third time, broke through from the right side, and stepped into the paint area with his right foot.

At this step, he started with all his strength.

"Oh!"

Step up with your left heel, step heavily on the floor, then rise into the air and glide forward.

His gliding is not elegant, like a mountain flying.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he raised his right arm high and slammed into the basket heavily.

"boom!"

One-arm heavy dunk, the basket trembled.

85:62, the Suns trailed by 23 points at home.

"boom!"

Li Ba landed and looked around, the arena was silent, everyone was looking at him.

"Ow!"

He held his head high, with a ferocious face, and roared wantonly.

"Aww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Everyone in the American West Arena exploded, regardless of gender, raising their arms and roaring.

At this moment, hormones are burning wantonly in the American West Arena.

Chen Hong dared to bet that in Phoenix tonight, the sales of TT would skyrocket.

"Three meters, three meters, he has at least three meters of offensive ability!"

Off the court, in front of the Suns bench, Frank was trembling, he pulled D'Antoni and shouted excitedly: "See, Mike, in the paint area, he has the ability to attack the basket, and his first step is very fast !"

Nodding, D'Antoni admitted that the Hammers' offense was beautiful.

Not only scored this goal, but his defensive player is also the league's two-time block leader.

Ratliff may not be called a first-class defensive center, but he can definitely be called a quasi-first-class defensive center.

As for the quasi-first-class defensive center, the defensive level may be stronger than the offensive first-class center.

Being able to break through such a defensive center head-on and score this goal, he may have underestimated the Hammer's offensive ability in the paint.

In the VIP room, Suns general manager Colangelo stood up at some point, walked to the window, stared at Li Ba on the field, and muttered to himself: "The progress is very fast, and now the face basket has been developed. Are you capable?"

"Rookie, you guy, the starting speed is not bad, why didn't you use it earlier? Then I will have a lot more assists."

After receiving an assist, Marbury rushed to Li Ba, punched the latter and shouted.

"Haha, old bird, I want to be a blockbuster!" Li Ba laughed triumphantly.But in fact, he used to rely too much on strength.

"Be careful with your chin!" Marbury teased, and began to return to defense.

Eagles attack.

Jason Terry shot a cold arrow from outside the left-wing three-point line and made a three-pointer.

Marbury was caught off guard, and only had time to stretch out his hand half a step away, and then looked back at the rebound.

"boom!"

The ball bounced off the basket, went in a sixty-degree direction to the right wing, and bounced far away.

Li Ba was in the low post on the left wing, and the moment Terry shot, he started to punch Ratliff backwards, let this guy out first.

Then immediately took a lateral step into the paint and locked the ball over his head.

This position puts the basket within two meters of the outer end of his wingspan and can be locked.

This is his usual rebounding procedure now, first let the opponent player out, and then lock the ball.During the whole process, he didn't even glance at the ball.

At the instant the ball bounced, he began his first fly-catching step to the right wing, and then moved at full speed towards the destination.

Bypassing Raheem who wanted to pick up the rebound, he jumped up one meter before Marion and grabbed the defensive rebound that ran a long way.

Marion jumped up, and shook his hand helplessly, expressing his depression in his heart, I am waiting to be caught here, what are you doing to grab my data, Hammer?

However, he immediately received the ball handed over by Li Ba, turned around immediately, and rushed to the frontcourt.

Marbury came off the left wing, now the right wing, took the ball from Marion, crossed the center line, went to the three-point line, threw the ball in the air before Terry tried to get the ball behind, and then rushed Out of line.

On the left wing, Marion ran at full speed. When Marbury rushed out of the bottom line, he jumped up, fished up with his right arm, caught the ball with one palm, and hit the basket with force.

"Bang!" The Eagles basket was blown.

85:64, the Suns trailed by 21 points at home.
