Chapter 16: Catching a Turtle in an Urn

As the referee's whistle blows, the basketball is gently thrown into the air.

Kaiming Lee and Claude Britton jumped at the same time!

But in a blink of an eye, Britton found that Li Kaiming rose much faster than him, and the moment the basketball stopped at the highest point, Li Kaiming stretched out his long arm to reach the ball, and at the same time, with a big hand, the basketball flew into the hands of the Tigers' point guard Kemp!

Kemp, who got the ball, was not shocked in his heart, since Li Kaiming became the starting center, the Tigers have not lost the opening jump ball!

Li Kaiming, who won the jump, quickly ran towards the front court after landing on the ground, Britton fought with all his strength, gritted his teeth and followed closely behind.

Before going on the field, his coach told him again and again that even if he spent all his physical strength on defense and couldn't score a point, he couldn't give Li Kaiming a chance to attack quickly!

Fortunately, Britten's teammates helped block Li Kaiming's route and did not let him rush into the three-point line for the first time.

But before he could completely spit out his breath, he found that the point guard of the Tigers hoisted the ball high to Li Kaiming!

Li Kaiming, who got the ball, had a gleam in his eyes!

A half-turn swept past Britten's side, and then jumped high, ready to slash Huashan's violent buckle!

At this moment, a dark-skinned figure flashed beside him, it turned out to be Eugene Calrackt, a small forward from the Shakhtars, who was not tall, only two meters tall, but had a good jump.

Karakt flew high, his big black hand stretched out, and the target was the basketball in Li Kaiming's hand!

Li Kaiming sneered in his heart, what grade would you dare to come over to defend me?

He didn't panic at all, his hands changed, a small lever that changed hands dodged Karakter's defense, and then with a one-handed rub, the basketball spun out of his hand and flew out, grazing on the rebound and bouncing into the basket.

"Beautiful! Li Kaiming looked like he was in the air for a second, and he used a cool lever to dodge Karakter's defense! Calvin in the commentary booth spat at the microphone and squirted wildly!

The fans at the scene were also shocked by Li Kaiming's handsome layup.

"God, he's so tall that he can still actually fight the lever?"

"His lever made me see Kobe's shadow......"

In the audience, Len Butt, a Knicks scout hook-nosed man, also had a look of surprise on his face, "This No. 34, the layup is very good!" ”

After landing on the ground, Li Kaiming glanced back at Karakter, who was frozen in place, and then quickly returned to defense.

The Shakhtars attacked, the opposing defender dribbled to the frontcourt, and after a few backcourt players blocked and dismantled a few times, the ball went to the hands of the opponent's No. 1 scorer - Randy Culpeper, and the defender of him, coincidentally, was also the Tigers' first scorer Williams!

Calvin on the commentary bench spoke excitedly, "Randy confronted Elliott, this is one of the highlights of today's game!" Although Randy is the C-USA League Player of the Year, he has little chance of being drafted by the NBA. Elliott is a highly talented guy, ESPN predicts he'll be drafted late in the first round, and both guys are averaging 17 points per game this season! ”

Maren Barth, who was sitting in the front row of the audience, sat up slightly straight, and the two scorers faced each other, one of which was Williams, whom he wanted to focus on, and he couldn't help but not take it seriously, he even took out the thick notebook in his backpack, ready to take some notes.

In the process of taking things, he inadvertently glanced at the fat man Kent on the side, but saw that Kent was as steady as Mount Tai, motionless, as if he was not here to inspect the players, but to enjoy the game as a pure fan.

Bart poked Kent with his elbow, "Cannan, Randy, and Elliott's face-to-face matchup is the most important highlight of today's game, why do you look like you're okay?" Don't you need to record something? ”

Kent was stunned for a moment, then said, "These two guys are also very good, but I'm not here for them. ”

Barth's heart seemed to be scratched by a cat, and he became more and more curious about who the fat man was talking about......

While the two were talking, Culpepper on the field had already moved, he first changed direction in front of his body, stepped out to the right, and looked up to find that Williams had already blocked the path of the breakthrough one step ahead of him.

But Culpeper wasn't a vegetarian either, as he raised his left arm to confront Williams, then followed by a scissor step, a hip spin with his right hand and a quick crotch dribble past Williams.

Calvin yelled, "Beautiful dribble, handsome dribble!" ”

Bart in the stands also nodded, "Culpeper's basic skills are still very good, but it's a pity that he is a little older, and the upper limit can be seen at a glance." ”

Culpeper, who passed Williams, did not dare to relax at all, because before the game, the coach of the Shakhtars said in the video analysis that the Tigers' interior line should not be underestimated now, and their starting No. 34 center is extremely strong in protecting the basket!

Therefore, although he passed the first line of defense of the Tigers, he did not rush to attack the basket directly, but reduced his speed, stuck Williams behind him, and moved towards the basket at the same time, confusing the opposing interior line.

Li Kaiming stood on the inside line, staring at Culpeper's every move, and from time to time he turned back to pay attention to his defender, so as not to be stolen by him, in case he was entered by that guy, then his advanced mission would be declared a failure, although there was no punishment, but he lost a badge upgrade opportunity.

In his opinion, if you don't pick up the money, you will lose it!

Looking at Culpeper, who was constantly squirming towards the inner line in front of him, suddenly he had a special idea in his heart......

At this time, Culpeper had already dribbled into the penalty area, looked up, and found that Li Kaiming, who was waiting in the penalty area, suddenly took two steps up for some reason, as if he was very afraid of his shot!

He was happy in his heart, but the look on his face remained unchanged at all, but the dribble took another step in, and it was almost enough to go directly to the basket.

Then he stepped on the ground with his left foot, kicked up with his right leg bent on his knee, and at the same time put the ball in front of his chest with both hands, and he should be throwing like this!

Seeing Li Kaiming move forward a little more, there was already some distance from the basket, he suddenly shook his wrist, turned the throw into a pass, and stuffed the basketball straight into the basket for a long time The center Britten, who had been in ambush for a long time.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, I thought it was a powerful center? It turns out that he is a stupid big man, and he can't defend with a little trickery!

Britton, who received the ball, was also happy on his face, jumped with the ball in both hands, and immediately came to a powerful dunk!

But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, just when his hand reached the height of the rebound, a long arm suddenly inserted from his side, and with a big hand from the sky, Britton's dunk was nailed to the rebound!

Under the effect of inertia, Britten's body flew towards the bottom line, and then fell at the feet of the cheerleader!

Lying on the ground, he inadvertently saw Li Kaiming's expression, and saw a wicked smile on the face of the big man opposite......
