Chapter 33 The Chosen Son? (two in one)

Beep----

Pacers quick call timeout!
The Lakers players exploded into a ball.

"Crazy!!!"

"Damn it, Dragon!!!"

"The sky has changed! Brother Long made a three-point shot!"

"Damn it, let Brother Long pretend again!"

Russell felt his face ache.

Zheng Long's three-point shot is not only a response to George, but also a response to himself.

Who told you I can't shoot threes!
With this three-pointer scored, the remaining time of the game was 3 minutes and 45 seconds, the Lakers 104:95 Pacers, the Lakers still hold a 9-point lead.

Pacers home fans have begun to show desperation.

They held their heads helplessly, watching the replay of Zheng Long's three-point retreat on the big screen.

This man is simply a nightmare!
Pacers bench.

Paul George's emotions were a little out of control, and he asked head coach McMillan unwillingly, "Didn't you say that kid can't make three-pointers?!"

McMillan was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head and asked the chief assistant Dan Burke with a sullen face, "Burke, didn't you say that kid is bad at three-pointers?"

Dan Burke panicked, turned his head to look, and saw the team data analyst Kevin Lee standing in the crowd, "Lee, this is the analysis result you came out after three nights?"

When Kevin Lee turned his head again, there was nothing behind him.

He said nervously, "But that kid has never shot a three-pointer since he entered the high school team! He hasn't shot a single shot until now! Four years in high school, one year in college, two years with injuries, seven years, a whole I haven't voted for it in seven years!"

Zero three-point shots in seven years.

As a result, today's shot is to take a super long step back? !

The Pacers bench was completely silent.

"Hey, that kid is so lucky! It must be feeling hot, try to throw one, and it really hits!"

McMillan made a conclusion, and the Pacers bench was silent, accepting the result.

Is it doomed to lose three games in a row today? !
At this critical moment, Paul George stabilized the morale of the army, "Nine points, we still have a chance!"

"My three-pointer today feels very good!"

"pass it to me!"

On the other side, the Lakers bench.

For Zheng Long's three-point shot, head coach Wharton was also surprised. Before that, he took the initiative to find Zheng Long, hoping that he could practice three-pointers, increase the space of the team, and expand his arsenal at the same time.

As a result, he was rejected by Zheng Long.

Wharton was still impressed by the reasons for the refusal at the time.

"Why use 2 points for something that can be solved with 3 points?"

This sentence made Wharton speechless at the time. After all, Zheng Long did what he said and used his 2 points to lead the team to two victories.

Originally, Wharton also thought that Zheng Long was inaccurate in three-pointers, and he was stubborn. After all, Wharton was a player, and the three-pointer boom was not as violent as it is now.

At that time, for many players, except for three-point shooters, they would not spend too much time on three-point training.

On this point, Wharton understood Zheng Long.

After all, he is only the first real NBA season, and he has already brought too many surprises to the Lakers, and you still ask him to practice three-pointers.

This is a bit unreasonable.

Just think about taking it slow.

The game restarts.

For the Pacers, the ball passed halftime and was immediately delivered to George, and his teammates also ran forward to pick and roll for George.

When George saw Zheng Long being blocked by his teammates, he wanted to make a move immediately, but he was worried and took another step back.

Directly shoot a super long three-pointer!

Swish!
in!

Lakers 104:98 Pacers.

Back to the six-point difference!

The sideline Pacers coaches stood up excitedly and saw hope again!

"Paul George feels good today. At the critical moment, he showed his superstar qualities. He scored three consecutive three-pointers and abruptly gave the Pacers their lives."

On the field, George threw his fist in a simple celebration, and then started to lead the defense, his eyes fixed on Zheng Long who was holding the ball.

George doesn't believe it, Zheng Long can return a three-pointer!
Zheng Long dribbled the ball and came to the front court slowly, as if he was not in a hurry at all, standing two steps outside the three-point line.

Raised eyebrows.

"Why don't you come to guard me?"

At this time, in order to prevent Zheng Long from breaking through, George had already stood inside the three-point line.

"You cast whatever you want, I don't guard against it."

George smiled defiantly.

George can't wait for Zheng Long to shoot a three-pointer!

After all, Zheng Long's breakthrough, he really couldn't prevent it.

Zheng Long: "."

Then, Zheng Longyuan took a step forward, outside the three-point line, and directly pulled out his hand!
Seeing Zheng Long's shot so neatly, George panicked and quickly turned his head to watch the ball!
Swish!
Hollow into the network!

Lakers 107:98 Pacers!
In again! ! !
George looked at Zheng Long in shock, Zheng Long looked innocent, "Didn't you ask me to vote?"

"I wanted to score 2 points, but you insisted on making me shoot 3 points."

"It seems that you don't really want to win today."

Zheng Long's next words were like a heavy hammer hitting George's chest. George's chest was so blocked!

At this time, the first row of Pacers fans on the sidelines.

It was also a little unbearable.

Why didn't George defend and let that kid shoot a three-pointer!
The critical moment has come!
Hearing the fans' complaints about him, George regretted that he had really overplayed it.

At the same time, there are 1 question marks in my heart.

Come and tell yourself in person.

Is this kid fooled, or is he really so accurate!

Don't let yourself die so wrongly.

Pacers offensive round.

Facing Zheng Long who came to defend, George asked sincerely, "Are you lying to me all the time? You are actually very accurate with three-pointers."

Zheng Long frowned, "What did I lie to you, who told me that I can't shoot three-pointers?"

George: "."

Zheng Long really never told himself that he can't make three-pointers. It was told by the coaching staff, and it was also summarized by his own observation of the video.

this moment.

George was completely heartbroken.

Heartbroken!
Suddenly, three-pointers pulled out their hands!

Regardless of whether Zheng Long will or not, he is still 9 points behind, let's talk about scoring first!

Originally, with this ball, George wanted to catch Zheng Long by surprise.

As a result, there was a loud bang!This time the shot was predicted by Zheng Long, and Zheng Long took off at the same time and blocked it hard.

At the same time, Zheng Long also passed George, got the basketball that flew out, and made an easy layup in the frontcourt.

Lakers 109:98 Pacers, leading by 11 points!
For the rest of the time, George lost his mind a little bit and made consecutive three-pointers, but they were all bang bang.

In the end, the score between the two sides was fixed at 115:101.

Zheng Long scored 46 points!
The Lakers have achieved a three-game winning streak!
And the Pacers lost three games in a row!

The home fans left the stadium disappointed.

The three-game losing streak at the beginning of the game seems to have heralded the final end of the season. The Pacers led by George alone, let alone the results, may find it difficult to enter the playoffs in the new season.

On the other side, the Lakers players excitedly surrounded Zheng Long again.

The biggest surprise Zheng Long brought them today was the two three-pointers.

What else is this man unable to do? !

And Zheng Long saw that Jenna was staring at him with a peach blossom face.

Quickly squeezed his teammates away and ran back to the locker room.

I pray in my heart, I hope that the next game will not see Jenna again.

In the post-match press conference, there were indeed media reporters who asked questions about Zheng Long's two three-pointers.

"Long, before today's game, the outside world generally believed that three-pointers were your weakness, but today you contributed two three-pointers at critical moments. What do you think of this?"

After a moment of silence, Zheng Long said, "It's not that I don't know how to shoot three-pointers, I just don't like shooting three-pointers."

"Please don't say that I can't make three-pointers in the future."

"I have no weaknesses."

No weakness!

The reporters looked at each other in blank dismay. This kid's tone became more and more crazy.

However, you don't seem to have any reason to refute!
Dunk from the free throw line.

Super long three points.

The entire frontcourt is this man's stage!
Where is this rookie.

Play like a top superstar!
Seeing the expressions of the reporters, Zheng Long didn't bother to explain.

When I was in high school and college, I hadn't fully integrated with the template. At that time, the three-pointer was indeed a "weakness" in my projection.

Compared with the two points that directly exceed the radar chart, the three points are only close to the full score.

Of course, I have to choose the safest two-point shot.

Since the templates were 100% fused, Zheng Long found that his three-point attribute value had also been fully drawn.

Interest came today.

Just cast two.

Unexpectedly, the shooting percentage is not bad, and it feels no different from the two-point shooting feel.

After the game, the Lakers took the bus, returned to the hotel to pack up their things, and then rushed to the airport, ready to go to the next city.

The road trip, the schedule is very tight, two days later, the Lakers will then play against the Detroit Pistons.

On the plane, the players were in a very relaxed state.

In the midst of the excitement of a three-game winning streak.

At the same time, the outside world,

Zheng Long's three consecutive victories and three explosive performances have completely set off a whirlwind in the fan circle.

#Shock!The rookie averaged 48 points in three games!Avatar!

#新天选子?Can Zheng Long shake the current alliance structure!

#lakersrevival!That man seems to be back!

The overwhelming news related to Zheng Long bombarded the fans circle.

new York.

Olympic Tower, 645 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan.

NBA headquarters.

In an office, an emergency meeting is being held.

A skinny, sickly man with glasses was sitting at the main seat in the meeting.

Just by looking at it, you can never tell that this man is the man who controls the overall operation strategy of the NBA.

The current commissioner of the NBA, Adam Silver.

He entered the NBA in 1992, succeeded David Stern in 2012, and became the new talker of the league.

Except for Xiao Hua.

The bosses of each center responsible for the management and operation of the NBA were all present.

The managers all looked at Xiao Hua.

Waiting for his speech.

It was Xiao Hua who initiated this special meeting.

Xiao Hua signaled the secretary to turn on the meeting projection, and the theme of the meeting came out, which turned out to be a special meeting for Zheng Long.

Xiao Hua, "What do you think of this Zheng Long who suddenly appeared from the Lakers?"

The subordinates didn't know what Xiao Hua was thinking, so they didn't dare to speak rashly.

Xiao Hua looked at the person in charge of the data operation department.

"His recent first three games were too explosive, even when we didn't have the main force to promote him before."

"According to the statistics of our department, the recent discussion about him, the search index on the Internet, after winning the Pacers, has come to the third place, second only to Curry and James."

"Fans' attention to him continues to rise!"

"And as you know, he is still a Chinese. The data in the Chinese operation area has already exploded, and the data is still being counted."

Xiao Hua looked at the others.

Now they are trying to speak.

"The fan circle has already begun to say that he is the new Chosen Son!"

"Maybe he has the opportunity to reproduce the influence and attention that James brought to us!"

"The heat brought by the Warriors War has reached its peak in the past two years, and the fans have also experienced aesthetic fatigue, and now that the Warriors have Durant joining, the balance has been broken"

"I don't quite agree with your ideas. He only played three games. There are many short-lived players in the league. I don't think we should immediately tilt the media resources to fuel the flames, and we have to wait and see."

"Wait and see? The fan circle is blown up, we are just going with the flow, even if he is abolished later, so what, it will affect him, not us."

talking and talking.

There was even a quarrel in the meeting room.

Xiao Hua kept silent, listening to the quarrel carefully, this is what he loves to do.

Being condescending, let the people below quarrel, and finally make a decision by yourself, and the final word is finalized.

Bang bang bang!
Xiao Hua knocked on the table, and the scene quickly quieted down.

Xiao Hua looked at a person in charge.

"Is there any action against Zheng Long at Nike?"

"As far as I know, not yet, they seem to be waiting and watching."

"Ah."

Xiao Hua's expression changed, and he frowned, "If that's the case, let's take another look."

An executive couldn't help but said, "We can't just look at Nike's attitude. If Nike doesn't sign him, shouldn't we take action?"

"Maybe this is an opportunity to further develop the Chinese market!"

Xiao Hua ended the meeting expressionlessly.

Did not answer the words of the executive.

At this time, the same building, different floors, Nike NBA headquarters.

Rawls, the general manager, was walking around the office in annoyance.

There was a knock on the door, and Pete, the head of the department responsible for player cooperation, entered the office sweating profusely.

Rawls glared at Pete.

"Peter, are you a dry person?! Don't you know that the Chinese player named Zheng Long has filled all the headlines in the NBA!"

"Why such a player!"

"Your department has not taken any action!"

Pete smiled wryly.

"You misunderstand me, Mr Rawls."

"After our first game with the Lakers, we contacted him to discuss cooperation."

"However, he rejected us on the grounds that he didn't have an agent yet, and blocked all our contact information."

"He said that if we people from Nike contact him again, he will call the police and say that we have physically harassed him!"

Rolls: "?"

Pete: "As far as I know, Adi and Under Armor were also rejected by him with the same reason. Now no one knows what he thinks!"

Rawls: "Damn! What is he going to do! Is he going to arrange another Under Armor for us like Curry?"
