Chapter 88: Heaven Hook Jabbar, Earth Hook Li Kaiming
After the first few rounds of the two teams, you went back and forth, and the difference in points always remained at one goal, which also surprised everyone who looked down on Memphis!
In their perception, with Butler's strong defense, Memphis should have been blown up as soon as it came up, and it couldn't break Butler's defense at all.
However, Li Kaiming and the Tigers completely shattered this doubt.
The enthusiasm of the audience was not as high as it was at the beginning, and I thought that in today's game, my home team would defeat the opposite side and then break into the final.
But who would have thought that what they saw was that the two sides had back and forth, and neither had a way to take the other!
But Stevens was still calm and light, as if he was not in a hurry at all, but Pastner, seeing that Memphis was playing okay, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Butler College offense, point guard Zach Hahn dribbled to the frontcourt, faced Kemp's defense, let Smith come up to cover, and then started the mandatory technique of a point guard - rubbing in.
Hahn stuck Camp behind him, while dribbling to observe the situation, this time Butler University chose to change the way, let Hayward and the other two outside the three-point line without the ball, the point guard and the center blocked and dismantled, Li Kaiming let Hahn take a step as if he was careless, and at the same time covered his vision with his hand to prevent Hahn from suddenly stopping the jump shot.
Hahn saw that Smith had run near the penalty area and immediately passed the ball to the latter.
Li Kaiming, on the other hand, changed the object of defense in an instant, and pounced towards Andrew Smith on the edge of the penalty area.
I have to say that the speed of this white center is really slow, even if Li Kaiming is one step behind him before leaving, he still rushes in front of Smith in an instant, establishing a legal defensive position.
Seeing that the opportunity for an easy layup was gone, Smith switched from facing the basket to carrying the basket.
His height is about the same as Li Kaiming, but his weight and strength are superior, even if he is tough under the basket, he is not afraid!
And Li Kaiming gritted his teeth and tried his best to withstand Smith's force, but the latter was not one of those black centers who could only eat cakes, and after a few blows of force on his back, he suddenly turned around and shook!
Li Kaiming, who was pushed away, immediately pounced, but Smith didn't want to shoot this time, but waited for Li Kaiming to pounce, then took a step up and down, and finally threw a shot on Li Kaiming's side!
The basketball smashed on the rebound and bounced into the basket!
Butler is leading again!
Seeing this, Koslov seemed to see a wild dog that had seen a bone after a week of starvation, and his eyes instantly lit up, "Andrew Smith, beautiful footsteps, shook Li Kaiming, and scored steadily!" Strike! ”
Matt Bullard and Sharp next to them were a little speechless, should you be neutral as a commentator? Even if it's not neutral, can this be more restrained in live broadcasting?
Koslov seemed to see the disgust in the eyes of the two Brads, and after coughing, he immediately explained in righteous words, "You all know, my explanation is known for being fair and impartial, and I have always had a touting attitude towards Li Kaiming, just now Smith's goal was more exciting, I can't help it......"
Brad, Sharp: ......
I have to say that Koslov's skin is thick to a certain level, and ordinary people can't compare with him at all.
It was Memphis' turn to attack, and after Andrew Smith hit Li Kaiming just now, the audience was boiling, and even Li Kaiming himself could hear that there were some extreme Butler fans on the sidelines, yelling at him.
"Yellow-skinned monkey, go home and play table tennis! This place is not for you! ”
"Without David Stern to give you momentum, you wouldn't even be in the NBA! Go home and find your mother! ”
……
Li Kaiming has never regarded himself as a gentleman, so he avenged on the spot if he had a vengeance.
Therefore, as soon as he came to the front, he stuck his position on the edge of the box on the inside line, and then opened his hand at Kemp!
"Give me the ball!"
Camp was stunned for a moment, according to Pastner's arrangement, unless there was really no better opportunity, he would give the ball to Li Kaiming to play alone, and it seemed that this time he was going to play Andrew Smith with his back.
He also heard the boos and insults from Butler fans, but as a veteran who has played for many years, he naturally does not take it to heart.
In fact, if you see a lot, you don't care.
But Li Kaiming is not, this season is his first year with the team, and this is also the first time to play March Madness.
He muttered a little in his heart, Li Kaiming wouldn't be the top, right......
However, he still passed the ball to the latter, and made up his mind in his heart that if the ball didn't go in, the next time Li Kaiming asked for the ball to play alone, he wouldn't pass it.
As the core of the team's dominance of the ball, his heart must not be chaotic, and he must be stable!
Li Kaiming, who received the ball, did not stay for a second, but turned around, pushed Smith away with his body, and then took a big stride, and another old man hooked on the left side of the penalty area!
Again!
Andrew Smith's eyes almost burst into flames!
Even if you put one on my head, I'll put up with one! But don't you think I'm air? Do you want to get a second one?
He immediately tried his best to reach for Li Kaiming's left hand, trying to give Li Kaiming a hot pot and let him know what it means to respect his opponent!
But his defense fell short again!
The hook is the most difficult of almost all shots to defend, and with the fact that Li Kaiming is tall and has long arms, he also uses his other arm to block Smith's defense when he shoots.
So, even if Smith used all the strength to feed, in the end he was still a palm away from the basketball flying in the air!
It's a stone's throw away, but it's like a moat.
This unpretentious hook hand, under the gaze of everyone, tossed on the basket for a while, and finally fell into the basket!
[System]: 2/5 of the mission progress.
The whole stadium was quiet for a moment, and then it boiled like a boiling pot!
"What kind of move is this?"
"Can this also be entered? It makes me feel like I'm on my own......"
"Although this is also a hook hand, it is completely different from the hook hand I remember in Jabbar!"
"Abdul-Jabbar's hook is much more freehand than his, and his actions are exactly the same as those of my downstairs uncle!"
"But he can just get in, and he's off the charts!"
"Jabbar's nickname is 'Sky Hook', I think his trick is called 'Earth Hook'!"
……
Andrew Smith was also stunned, he never thought that he would be beaten by one person with the same trick in a row!
Obviously, Li Kaiming's jump is not high, the speed is not fast, and the posture is even uglier and outrageous, but he can score!
This feeling is like he tried his best, but it hit the cotton, which made him feel the urge to vomit blood......
Camp looked at Li Kaiming's expression, and also brought a hint of surprise, in his impression, Li Kaiming almost never used a hook in the game, but today in the semi-finals of Crazy March, two hook shots in a row!
Could it be that this guy is really a genius? If you don't practice a move, you can learn it without a teacher?
