It's just that they lost home-court advantage, but everyone feels that the Lakers have lost the momentum they deserve. The first to panic were Lakers fans.

Near the hotel where the Timberwolves stayed, fans with various loudspeakers and screeching noise from heavy metal instruments appeared. Their purpose is clear, which is to interfere with the normal rest of the Timberwolves players to add a little bit of an advantage to the Lakers. Fortunately, the Los Angeles police were very dedicated, and it didn't take long for the sirens to sound outside the hotel, and then forcibly dispersed the fans who were suspected of "disturbing the people".

For the Timberwolves players, these formations have been seen as early as in Portland, when they first came two days ago, the Lakers fans did not prepare this hospitality, and everyone is still exaggerating that the fans in the big cities are different, and now it seems that people did not have this worry at all.

Zheng Ke's body recovered quickly, and since the stamina ability value increased, not only his ability to prevent injuries has increased, but even his body's recovery ability is much stronger than before.

On the third day after the first game, and today when there was another game, Zheng Ke got up from bed early in the morning.

"Hmm~ Where are you going?" Taylor's eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he said in a bit of a daze.

Zheng Ke lowered his head and kissed Taylor's small mouth, and said, "Honey, I'll go to the court to practice for a while, you can sleep a little longer." ”

"Hmm~" Taylor rolled over, wrapped up in the quilt and fell asleep again.

Zheng Ke smiled, tiptoed up his tracksuit, walked out of the room door, and walked out of the hotel.

Los Angeles hasn't woken up in the morning. The fresh smell in the air is particularly pleasant. After a night of hustle and bustle of the city, it is particularly quiet at this moment, and Zheng Ke feels very comfortable running on the road in the center of Los Angeles. He was running rhythmically. Adjust your breathing rate accordingly.

Run to three buildings three kilometers away from Staples, where three huge portraits of Chamberlain, Abdul-Jabbar and O'Neill are plastered. The three great Lakers centers represent the glory of the Lakers in history, Zheng Ke unconsciously stopped, looked up at the three seniors, and a faint admiration surged in his heart. "Maybe one day. Be proud to be able to live in Minnesota. Zheng Ke thought.

Zheng Ke turned his head to continue running, and gradually, he saw the outline of the Staples Arena.

"Huh~Huh~" Zheng Ke ran into the arena.

Not yet close to the training hall. Zheng Ke had already heard the sound of "popping" the ball, "I didn't expect that there were already players coming." Zheng Ke smiled and pushed open the door of the training hall.

There, one was wearing a Lakers training jersey. The grim-faced man was carrying a basketball in each hand. Looking at his sweaty appearance, it is clear that he has been here for a while.

"Good morning, Kobe." Zheng Ke smiled slightly, reached out to pick up the basketball on the courtside shelf, and began to skillfully dribble the ball under his crotch.

"Good morning, nuclear weapons." Kobe Bryant also smiled in return, and called Zheng Ke's new nickname with some jokingness.

Zheng Ke was embarrassed and laughed dryly.

The two were silent for a while. They dribbled the ball and did shooting drills. No more talking.

In fact, Zheng Ke was itching in his heart, he kind of wanted to play a round of five-ball heads-up game with Kobe. But he felt a little abrupt, so he didn't bring it up.

But Kobe Bryant was surprised by Zheng Ke's efforts. Zheng Ke became a superstar in the league in just two seasons, and in his opinion, he is definitely a talented person. Now it seems that his level of effort is also one of the reasons why he is so strong. Although he has an arrogant personality, he still can't help but admire a hard-working player like Zheng Ke.

For daily training, Zheng Ke will do some ordinary shooting and simple dribbling training most of the time, mainly to relax the body.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Zheng Ke made a series of five three-pointers in the bottom corner, which made Kobe's eyes shine.

"Nice touch, boy." Kobe Bryant was aroused to be competitive in his heart at the moment, but he knew that his three points, although sometimes they would go against the sky, but compared to a demon like Zheng Ke, who averaged 40 percent per game, it was still worse. Therefore, he grabbed the basketball with one hand, raised his eyebrows at Zheng Ke, and said, "Are you interested in a game?" ”

Zheng Ke subconsciously stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, nodded and smiled: "It's exactly what I want." ”

"Five balls, whoever goes first wins." Kobe Bryant was afraid that Zheng Ke didn't understand the rules, so he still explained. Heads-up here in the U.S. is a little bit different from when we usually play ball. Generally speaking, when you score a ball, you need to go out of the three-point line to grab a rebound, but you can directly attack the basket after completing a steal and block, and you can also grab a rebound after shooting.

After Zheng Ke nodded in understanding, he received Kobe's pass at the three-point line at the top of the arc.

"You're a guest, vote." Bryant made a gesture of please.

Zheng Ke nodded and threw the ball out relaxedly.

"Huh!"

Kobe Bryant ran over and picked up the basketball, then stood in front of Zheng Ke and sent the ball to Zheng Ke while making a defensive stance.

This is really a super exciting thing, Zheng Ke put the ball behind his back with one hand, and his heart was slightly excited.

"Again, I see that you like to hold the ball in one hand." Kobe Bryant saw Zheng Ke grabbing the ball with one hand and putting it behind his back, and couldn't help but complain.

"Don't you think this trick is handsome?" There is no time limit for heads-up, Zheng Ke chatted with Kobe Bryant outside the three-point line with great interest, if it weren't for this tense scene, the two looked like old cadres drinking tea and chatting.

Zheng Ke retracted the basketball and began a simple crotch dribble.

Bryant's defense has always been recognized by experts, and in this year's best defensive team, Bryant dominated the scoring guard position. Although Zheng Ke has an advantage in strength, he doesn't want to shamelessly use his back to fight alone, as if there are few people in the heads-up who like to use back alone to solve problems.

Zheng Ke looked directly at Kobe Bryant, and a flame gradually burned in his black pupils.

Suddenly, he moved.

It's like all the prelude actions in a martial arts movie, a breeze blows, a leaf falls, and the duel between the two masters starts from this moment!

Zheng Ke dribbled horizontally with his right hand, took a big step with his right foot, and shook his shoulder like a convulsion. However, Bryant was unmoved, and his defensive posture remained airtight.

The right hand changed to the left hand, and he danced under Zheng Ke's crotch like a basketball elf. In the past, the actions that were rarely used on the basketball court, Zheng Ke used them boldly with confidence. He thought like a bachelor: "No one will see it anyway, just play fancy." “

"Z~~"

The basketball shoe rubbed violently on the floor, and Zheng Ke broke through diagonally to the right. Bryant quickly moved in small steps and took a step to the right.

Zheng Ke straightened his left foot, bent his right foot, and pulled the basketball back with his right hand, and his body rotated to break through to the left.

"Hey!"

Bryant's body control was amazing, and he immediately adjusted, and he was still impeccable.

"Smack."

Under the control of Zheng Ke's left and right hands, the basketball quickly made two contacts with the floor. Then Zheng Ke shook his body, dribbled behind his back and exchanged his right hand, and his right foot broke a step, "smack", breaking through Kobe's defense.

Zheng Ke grabbed the basketball with both hands and placed it flat in front of him, with his arm span, so to protect the ball, Kobe Bryant had no way to cut off Zheng Ke's ball.

Taking two steps, Zheng Ke jumped easily and put the basket into the frame.

"It's your turn!"

Picking up the basketball on the ground, Zheng Ke smiled slightly and passed the ball to Kobe.

"Humph!"

The first goal was scored by Zheng Ke, which made Kobe Bryant's face a little unbearable, and he snorted unhappily, thinking that he must make this stinky boy look good after a while.

The two stood outside the three-point line again, and this time the defensive was replaced by Zheng Ke.

Bryant took a tentative step with his right foot, retracted, then took another tentative step, retracted, and tried a step back and forth a few times, and after a few rounds of calf strength, he burst out with his right foot and dribbled out at the same time to make a right break stance.

That formation is really as fast as thunder, as fast as lightning.

Zheng Ke didn't dare to be careless, and moved a step slightly.

A glint flashed in Bryant's eyes, and he took a step forward with the ball, followed by his body, and broke through to the right without any fancy.

"!"

Zheng Ke scolded secretly, he just felt that Kobe Bryant was obviously about to change direction, but he didn't expect that he really broke through to the right side, and he was actually put on a side.

Zheng Ke was also cleaned, Kobe Bryant held the ball with one hand, jumped in two steps, rounded his arm, and smashed the ball into the basket.

"It's your turn!"

Kobe Bryant raised his head and passed out the basketball.

"Smack!"

Zheng Ke caught it with both hands outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, waiting for Kobe Bryant's arrival

In terms of heads-up, neither of the two could subdue anyone, but the intensity of this confrontation was very high, and they sweated early in the morning, which made both of them feel happy.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zheng Ke said hello to Kobe Bryant and left the arena. (To be continued......)
