I'm king in the basket

Chapter 302 Deadly Counterattack
uproar,

hustle and bustle,

scream,

and cheers.

This is the echo that Li Xing brings, and few players can get such a response at the Staples Center.

If they weren't dazzled, Li Xingcai's scoring method was indeed the sky hook that disappeared from the arena after Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired.

"James, you and Kareem were teammates, how do you evaluate Lachey's hook just now?"

Coincidentally, James Worthy, who is sitting in the commentary tonight, is the core general of the Showtime Lakers team in the 80s, which was invincible in the West. The original appearance of the skyhook, he has witnessed countless times on the field that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar used the skyhook to score.

He knew what a skyhook was like.

Worthy rubbed his eyes, and reconfirmed that it was not because of old eyesight that he misread.

That is indeed a Skyhook.

Worthy sighed: "Laki Lee is a real genius, he really used the skyhook, this blow just now, like the soul of the peak Kareem Kareem!"

Wow!

Abdul-Jabbar's teammates personally certified that what Li Xing used was indeed a skyhook.

"What do you think of what he's doing?" Weber asked excitedly.

Worthy said: "His hook is very soft, very easy to do, for sure, he has done a lot of training in private, he is not like other people who just had a flash of light, maybe, maybe he really mastered it. this technology."

"Then why, he hasn't used it?"

why?

The crowd looked at the flags and jerseys above the Staples Center.

Maybe he's just trying to pull it off on the right stage, where he's going to be a blockbuster.

In this global live-broadcast focus game, at the home court of the Lakers, under the watchful eyes of many people, they used the lost skyhook. The repercussions caused by it are bound to spread like a virus.

"The current players have to dribble the ball hundreds of times, dribble to the end, force a shot or shoot an endless three-pointer when the 24-second offense is about to end, do you think it is possible to score such a ball? Collective basketball is Where? Where is the basics of basketball? Are they getting the ball right? Are they getting the shot at the best moment?"

"That's the value of the skyhook, it allows the ballhandler to make the shot with the best feel at any time."

"Even if he didn't make the shot, you wouldn't think there was anything unreasonable about it."

"Yes, when players are on the court these days, all they think about is scoring layups off the dribble and jumpers."

Miller nodded approvingly.

"I think the greatest shot in history is Kareem's hook. It's a shot that no one can stop. You can't do anything with it. It's hard to imagine how he can do that. , and in that case, you'd easily think young big men would try to learn the skyhook these days, and yet, for whatever reason, it just didn't work out that way."

"However, tonight, here and now, someone has resorted to this trick."

Until 10 minutes after Li Xing used the skyhook, the commentator was still talking about the ball.

Neither Stewart nor Greene knew what the sky hook represented. They only knew that Li Xing had just scored a goal, and everyone was discussing that goal.

"Did you see that? You stupid woman with big breasts and no brains!" Greene protested loudly.

The blond girl has nothing to say, she is not as ignorant of Lushan's true face as those two women, she knows what the sky hook means.

A player who can use the skyhook means a lot in this era.

And the sky hook is just one of Li Xing's many skills.

"It's unbelievable, he's like a basketball god."

Radcliffe sighed.

"Do you think so too?" The blond girl smiled wryly.

"It would be great if he was a Lakers player." Radcliffe regretted that the Lakers failed to recruit such wizards.

Kobe's eyes were low, and he didn't like being upstaged, even if it was Lucky Lee.

This is his home field, he should do something here, and no one can stop him.

"Kobe, did you see? You are old and belong to Dante now!"

"Now? I thought you were going to say that the future is his."

Kobe sneered.

Tony Allen smiled lightly: "No, of course it's not the future. It's his now. He's the defending champion, the winner of last season's MVP and Finals MVP. We're all in his era!"

"Stop being complacent!"

After Kobe said that, his steps were fierce and violent like a shower. The step he took did not show ferocious strength, but it gave people an unstoppable sense of shock.

Kobe rushed in. He knew exactly how Li Xing's Skyhook would affect the game.

He must eliminate this influence, and not let the audience think that this is Li Xing's game, he will never allow it!

In fact, ever since Li Xing joined the Lakers, he has created an embarrassing record for the Zijin team.

In all the games where Li Xing played, the Lakers lost to the Raptors.

Not counting tonight's game, in the past two seasons, the two teams have played against each other four times, and Li Xing has won all three games in which he played.

This value does not seem to be large now, and if it accumulates over time, after a few seasons, if it does not change, the number will become very embarrassing.

At that time, Li Xing will inevitably be nicknamed the Lakers Terminator.

Kobe took the ball and captured the Raptors' perimeter defense, and that was just the beginning.

Even if the opponent is Tony Allen, it is not difficult to blow up his defense. The real difficulty lies in how to break through the restricted area where Li Xing sits.

As long as Li Xing is there, the Raptors' restricted area is a fortress that will never fall.

The strength of Tony Allen's defense is also due to the fact that there is an epic beast inside.

When the inside line has a reassuring defense ability, there is no need to worry about the outside line defense. As long as you do your best and leave no regrets, the rest will be left to the people behind you.

For a long time, Li Xing has always played the role of the guardian of the penalty area. Until this moment, Kobe came to him with the ball, and he was about to pull up the abnormal lever again.

Li Xing opened the all-seeing eye.

The all-seeing eye did not let Li Xing see Kobe's intentions, but it judged the direction of the lever.

That's enough.

If Kobe wants to score in front of Li Xing, he must use the lever to confuse him, and wait until the blocker is empty before shooting.

But now, Kobe is destined to be unable to deceive Li Xing.

The two stalemate until before landing, Kobe barely shot.

With a shout, Li Xing sent Kobe's lever flying for a layup.

"This is simply a beast!"

Calderon ran hard, picked up the floor ball after half court, and went straight to the Lakers' position.

His position is so dominant that no Lakers player can stop him.

Calderon jumped up, the yearning for the basket in his eyes, the imperative to score.

"Bang, swish!"

"Overtake!"

"The Raptors overtook the score again!"

"This is not good news for the Lakers, they need a goal to stabilize the morale!"

"Who else could do it but Kobe?"

Li Xing stood under the basket with a relaxed expression, while Bynum still looked unhappy.

"He can clearly give me the ball, why not pass?" Bynum complained.

Li Xing believes that sooner or later, this unwillingness and dissatisfaction will turn into resentment and be made public. By then, Bynum will have no place in the Lakers.

It is impossible for the Lakers to give up Kobe for this disappointing young center.

Li Xing vaguely remembered that some major events happened during the offseason of this season, but he didn't care much about the NBA at that time, so he didn't remember what it was until now.

"Give me the ball!"

Bynum tried his best to get in position with a sullen face. Seeing him like this, whether he was passing the ball or not passing the ball, his teammates froze.

"Give it to him!" Kobe yelled.

Bynum took the ball, roared, and gave Li Xing a flip of his elbow.

Li Xing snorted coldly, stepped aside, and lured him to make a move.

As long as Bynum dares to make a shot, Li Xing is sure to block the ball.

Bynum really thought that his elbow had knocked Li Xing away, so he turned around and tried to force it, to prove to everyone: I am no worse than Larch Lee!
As long as the goal is dunked, he will say this sentence.

"Do you really think that this is the level I have?"

The cold words rang in his ears, and Bynum stared and searched around. When he saw Li Xing, everything was irreversible.

Li Xing jumped to a higher position than him and blocked his ball with both hands.

Bynum fell from the sky, while Li Xing held the ball firmly, saw DeRozan who was going down fast, and sent a precise long-distance guided pass.

"Here comes the Raptors' counterattack!"

"The Raptors do three or four counters like this every game!"

DeRozan jumped into the air, grabbed the ball in his palm, and then stepped into the paint for a 360-degree turn and dunk.

"Sorry, I wanted to copy Vince Carter's dunk, and I disappointed you!" DeRozan said to his teammates off the court.

"Cut, don't blow it!"

"It's time to smash you to death!"

"Farewell, I don't want to take you to the hospital."

"I can do it!"

The mistrust of his teammates hurt DeRozan.

Then, no one would believe it.

"DeMar, where's the classic UFO dunk? Where did it go? Your dunk is uglier than Kobe!"

Bargnani suddenly commits a bitch.

Kobe looked over coldly, the Italian didn't plan to shut up yet.

"Stop talking nonsense, be defensive, they are coming!"

Everyone in the Raptors team had a smile on their faces. They easily dealt with the opponents in front of them without any pressure, because they knew that even if there was a problem, Li Xing could solve it.

They just need to do their best and win the game together with Li Xing, that's enough.

Kobe moved angrily, trying to get the score back.

There is already a problem with his mentality, running around, there may not be any good scoring opportunities.

Allen followed him closely, and Kobe was the best defense like this.

Outside the three-point line, Kobe ran around the pick-and-roll to catch the ball and made a three-point shot.

"Duang!"

Li Xing took the rebound and made another counterattack.

This time it was Calderon's counterattack. He was not as fancy as DeRozan. He simply made a layup and rewritten the point difference again.

The momentum of the Raptors soared completely in these two counterattacks, no matter how difficult it is to contain.
