Kings of the Game: Getting Back to the Game, Beginning with the NBA

Chapter 74 The king of mid-range shots, taking over the game

However, James turned his head to look at Liu Ming.

It's different from Zhuang Shen.

As the person involved, he didn't hear any provocation from Liu Ming's words just now.

All I heard was sincerity.

And the obsession with fighting, the thirst for victory.

When James saw Liu Ming, it was like seeing himself in his youth!
So, he looked directly into Liu Ming's eyes and nodded.

"I'll give you two rounds to prove it."

Let Liu Ming try for two rounds first, and if he really can't do it, he can do it by himself.

This is equivalent to resting for two rounds.

For James now.

Every second of rest is precious.

"it is good!"

Seeing that the boss, James, trusted him, Liu Ming couldn't help clenching his fists.

In the chest, the blood boils even more!

At this point the Lakers have the ball.

James dribbled to the frontcourt.

Two Wizards players stepped forward and began to pinch James.

James saw the opponent coming to attack, and decisively passed the ball to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming received the ball at a 45-degree angle on the left.

Bill, who was defending him, kept staring at him, not giving him a chance to shoot a three-pointer.

But I don't know, because the three-pointer was inaccurate during this period.

Liu Ming had already changed his strategy.

I saw him make a feint of praying to Buddha and successfully shook Bill up.

Immediately afterwards, he dribbled the ball into the circle without hesitation, after Westbrook made up.

Without even the slightest hesitation, he made an emergency stop and made a jump shot.

Although the skill bonuses of the king of long-range shots and the king of mid-range shots both have an 80% hit rate, compared with long-range shots, the shooting speed of mid-range shots is obviously much faster.

This made it too late for Westbrook to block the shot.

Liu Ming's one-handed shoulder jump shot is very standard, even textbook-level.

The jump is high and the shot is fast, but the backspin of the basketball is full of softness.

The arc is also beautiful.

This is in stark contrast to Westbrook's unaesthetic zombie cast!
Swish!
The collision of the basketball and the hoop is as warm as a mother touching a child's forehead.

The difference is reduced to 3 point!
The Wizards have the ball.

Westbrook organized an offense.

In the state of Liu Ming's seamless defense, he only feinted and passed the ball to Bill.

Bill and Rui Hachimura hit a pick-and-roll and took two steps in.

The ball was handed to Rui Hachimura.

Rui Hachimura regained his confidence at this time.

Facing Zhuang Shen's defense, he is not afraid at all!

With a simple backspin, he jumped up and was about to shoot.

But right now.

A purple figure suddenly flew over from behind.

Snapped--

After a crisp sound, the ball flew far away.

Under Hachimura's astonishment, the Zijin back quickly made a fast attack.

"Liu Ming!"

Hachimura cursed in a low voice, then quickly lowered his head and ran back to the defense.

But when he was exhausted, he ran to the backcourt like a dead dog.

Liu Ming has already scored a layup and is returning to the Lakers half court at an extremely fast speed.

The two happened to be near the middle circle and successfully met each other.

"Wonima!"

Hachimura Rui couldn't believe his eyes.

"Ha ha."

Liu Ming was keenly aware of the astonishment on the other party's face, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

This "silent ridicule" made Rui Hachimura so angry that he was so suspenseful!
The point difference was reduced to 1 point.

The Wizards coach was very cautious and quickly called a timeout.

He called the players to his side, pointed at Liu Ming and yelled at the players: "Bill, stick him to death! Don't let him score again! Do you understand?"

Bill nodded. "Understood."

After yelling, the head coach glanced at Rui Hachimura, "Don't hesitate, just shoot if you have the opportunity!"

Hachimura nodded: "Yes, coach!"

On the other hand, the Lakers.

From James to Zhuang Shen, everyone high-fived Liu Ming one after another.

At first, when Liu Ming said to give him the ball, everyone was more or less upset.

but now.

An emergency stop jumper with a picturesque posture, and a quick counterattack with a very high efficiency in the backcourt, the scores of the two teams were evened almost instantly.

"Too tough!"

This made the entire Lakers team feel excited!

Even the battle-hardened James could not help but feel a throbbing in his heart.

He saw something called "the soul of a leader" from the young Liu Ming!

Obviously.

Compared with boosting morale through words, it is even more rare to cheer up the whole team through practical actions.

……

Dongguo nba live broadcast room.

Teacher Su turned to look at the old horse who was crying, "Director Ma, what do you mean?"

Director Ma roughly wiped his face with his big hand, "This... I'm laughing. I'm happy for James. From the Cavaliers to the Heat, and now to the Lakers, James almost always carries the team forward. As the most valuable star in the NBA, whichever team James is in has the possibility of winning the championship."

"But who can understand, James is already an old man in his forties. He can no longer carry the Lakers on his own, let alone rush to the top of the mountain. Since James returned from a groin strain last month, he has been playing games with a weight of 1 pounds. This situation is purely due to insufficient exercise due to injuries."

"James is really old, and the Lakers may be the final destination of his career. For this team, he has done everything. In the difficult stage of thick eyebrow injury, Liu Ming accidentally ignited the soul of the leader. Doesn't James laugh when he sees a successor!"

Director Ma may be too emotionally immersed in the process of speaking.

Perhaps moved by himself, the nine-foot tall five-year-old man wiped his tears several times again.

Mina and Teacher Su on the side were dumbfounded.

Director Ma is a well-known Zhan Mi, which can be said to be well known in the Dongguo basketball circle.

It is expected that Liu Ming's performance will be used to praise James, although he is unscrupulous.

But what kind of trouble is this "self-directed and self-acted" with "a bunch of nonsense"?
However, there is a sea of ​​joy in the barrage.

"Pfft~ An old man who is nearly [-] years old, the old horse described James, why I feel that the picture is full!"

"Zhan Huang is a strong player, and his normal weight of 280 pounds can be forced into injury and lack of exercise by you. I also laughed!"

"I'll wipe it, the forty-year-old man is smiling at Jiuquan! No, let me laugh for a while!"

"After these two golden sentences, Lao Ma's Zhan Mi character design finally collapsed!"

"I finally believe now that the commentary in the live broadcast room did not prepare scripts in advance..."

Not to mention the sarcasm in the live broadcast room, the 20-second pause on the field disappeared in a flash.

Looking back, the Wizards attack.

This time, Westbrook and Bill picked and rolled and blocked Liu Ming.

Then Westbrook made a zombie jumper and hit a two-pointer, widening the point difference to 3 points.

106: 103!

Looking back, the Lakers wanted to continue looking for Liu Ming.

But this time, Bill stuck close to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming wanted to take cover.

But the Wizards kept changing defenses, and someone was always sticking to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming ran several times in a row and finally found a chance to catch the ball.

But he just dribbled the ball twice, and Westbrook and Bill rushed over almost at the same time.

The coming is extremely fierce!

Liu Ming immediately stopped breaking through and pulled back at the same time.

I saw that his right foot was nailed in place, and his left foot took a small step towards the three-point line at the moment he stopped the ball.

After standing firmly on the left foot, take another step outward with the right foot, then retract the foot firmly outside the three-point line and pull out the hand.

"Shh!"

The basketball went straight in.

With Liu Ming hitting a three-pointer, the score was evened instantly!
