Chapter 5: The Newborn Calf

The opposing Lakers scoring guard has average ability, and because the overall strength of the Rockets crushes the Lakers, the Lakers will not send two players to defend themselves, which gives Long Zheng the opportunity to hold the ball and single the Lakers scoring guard.

The score of the two teams was 5-2, and the Houston Rockets launched an attack.

“here!!!”

Seeing point guard Kenny Smith dribbling the ball across the halfcourt, Long Zheng, who had a strong desire to attack, spoke directly and shouted for the ball from his teammates on the court.

Because Ryuzheng is the team's established outside core, seeing Ryuzheng take the initiative to ask for the ball, Kenny Smith didn't think much about it and decisively passed the ball to Ryuzheng.

Attacking the frontcourt, outside the three-point line, Ryu Zheng singled the Lakers scoring guard with the ball.

With a height of 203 cm, a weight of 99 kg, an arm span of 224 cm, and a standing height of 280 cm, Long Zheng, who relied on his height, weight, strength, and physical fitness to crush the Lakers' scoring guard, decisively leaned on the other side and chose to play with his back to the outside.

"Oh, it's a back-to-back single!" In the three-second zone, Rockets center Hakeem Olajuwon's eyes lit up.

The so-called back-to-back singles refers to the offensive method of 1vs1 singles played by players on the court with their backs to the defenders, that is, on the premise of not fouling, breaking through the opponent's defense and then making a layup or shooting.

In the current NBA, the player with the best back-to-back singles skills is undoubtedly the Rockets' "big dream" Hakeem Olajuwon. Da Meng's back steps are gorgeous, so his steps under the basket are also called "dream dance steps".

Of course, with the continuous development of basketball technology, back singles skills are not only limited to interior players, top outside players can also have good back singles skills if they practice hard.

However, because the back-to-back singles technique requires extremely high requirements for the player's footwork, and also requires excellent "understanding" assistance to master the offensive rhythm, there are only a handful of outside players who can truly master the back-to-back singles and form an effective attack. The current NBA, since Michael Jordan retired, has no real "back-to-back single outside player".

Perhaps, Long Zheng can bring surprises to everyone. -- Hakim Olajuwon's mind flashed through this thought.

The core of back singles lies in foot movement. It is difficult for even the best players to teach their footwork skills to other players. If you want to practice your foot movement well, you can only do it through hard practice and the player's own understanding.

Three strides in a row, Long Zheng turned decay into a magical foot movement and directly shook off the Lakers scoring guard who was defending the opposite position, simple, efficient and invincible at the same time, Long Zheng's foot technology gave people the ultimate visual shock.

The audience only saw Long Zheng, who shook off the defenders and got the vacant position, stared at his eyes and jumped up decisively with the ball. In mid-air, Ryu-masa's body leaned backwards, and when it reached the highest point, Ryu-masang threw the basketball in his hand hard.

Under the shocked and desperate gaze of the Lakers' shooting guard, the basketball crossed a brilliant curve and hit the Nets in the middle.

Back! Lean back!! Jumper!!! Goal !!!

Long Zheng's goal stunned tens of thousands of spectators at the scene, and also ignited the atmosphere of the scene. Even the hardcore fans of the Lakers had to admit the excitement and shock of this goal, and they gave their own applause.

8:2, with the wonderful play of Long Zheng, the Houston Rockets began to open the score.

..............................................................................................

After Ryu-jung's brilliant back-to-back jumper, the Los Angeles Lakers attacked.

The same choice is to focus on the small forward position, but this time the Lakers center is very tacitly pulled out to block and dismantle the Lakers small forward.

One step at a time, one step at a time, without expecting the Lakers center's intention to step forward to block and dismantle, Hakeem Olajuwon could only watch as the Lakers' small forward took advantage of the Lakers' center's cover to get an open jump shot.

"That's it, Ryuzheng." Hakim Olajuwon's desperate gaze suddenly lit up.

It was too late, that time was fast, and the audience only saw Long Zheng suddenly come out of the ground diagonally, and before the Lakers' small forward rose to the highest point, he chased the big hat and covered the ball.

After Ryu-jung's catch-up hat, the Rockets lost point guard Kenny Smith to get the ball before everyone else.

Agglomerate!!

Small forward Mario Elli took the lead, point guard Kenny Smith followed up with the ball, and the Rockets' rapid offense caught the Lakers off guard.

Bypassing defenders and getting to the basket, Mario Elli receives a precise pass from point guard Kenny Smith, dribbles to the basket, and the ball goes in!

The goal was valid, and the Houston Rockets scored two more points. At 10:2, the Houston Rockets were in front and the Los Angeles Lakers were behind, and the score was stretched to eight points.

With this goal from Mario Elie, the Houston Rockets completely suppressed the Los Angeles Lakers and began to gain momentum.

In the own half, center Hakeem Olajuwon, power forward Otis Thorpe, small forward Mario Elie, scoring guard Long Zheng, point guard Kenny Smith, five Rockets players worked together to limit the Lakers' offense without being able to defend together, and prevented the opponent's offense for 24 seconds.

The Lakers offense violated the foul for 24 seconds, and the Rockets won the ball.

It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord. After the momentum, the Rockets took advantage of the victory to chase and continue to put pressure on the opponent.

Attacking the frontcourt, scoring guard Long Zheng and small forward Mario Elie crossed the position; Center Hakeem Olajuwon and power forward Otis Thorpe support each other and take root in the basket; Point guard Kenny Smith guards the ball, sees all directions, listens to all directions, and is ready to "deliver cannonballs" to his teammates.

There are two types of running without the ball on the basketball court, the first is to find an opportunity to receive a pass from a teammate and shoot to score, and the second is to open up space for a teammate to play alone or cover for a teammate.

As the core of the outside line, the off-ball running of scoring guard Ryu-jung undoubtedly belongs to the first type -- running out of open positions, receiving passes from teammates, and shooting, while civilian player Mario Elie's off-ball running belongs to the second type -- opening up space for teammates to play alone or cover for teammates.

Ryu Zheng led the Lakers point guard to run on the right side of the court, and civilian player Mario Elli led the Lakers small forward to run on the left side of the court. Point guard Kenny Smith watches his teammates' positions carefully and is ready to pass the ball at any time. (To be continued.) )
