Chapter 368 When the inside player has a lightning breakthrough...
It's time for the Trail Blazers' appearance ceremony.
As the team's top scorer and top star, Wang Zelin was naturally the last one to appear.
When he appeared on the stage, he immediately caused a stir in the audience, with boos and cheers.
Wang Zelin raised his head and looked around the stadium. He saw that about 1/5 of the audience coming to this game were Chinese fans.
You must know that the Arco Arena, the home stadium of the Kings, has a maximum capacity of 1,000 people. It is ranked at the top among the major home stadiums in the league.
1/5 means that there are at least 4,000 spectators at the scene, all of whom are here for Wang Zelin.
For a time, thousands of yellow-skinned spectators formed a unique beauty inside the Arco Arena, which made others feel deeply shocked:
This is the rhythm of playing away games as if they were home games!
Fortunately, the king quickly regained the victory.
When Cousins appeared as the king's top card in the finale, the decibel sound at the scene was much louder than when Wang Zelin appeared.
Obviously, Cousins's strong performance this year has greatly increased the enthusiasm of fans to watch the game, because in Cousins, they see the hope of the Kings' rise.

After a cursory look at the changes in Cousins' strength, he found that he had indeed reached the All-Star level. When he saw the column of talent and skills, Wang Zelin felt puzzled.
He can understand the Awakened Terminator and the Dunk King. After drawing so many prizes, he also discovered that the talent of Terminator is almost a standard skill for excellent insiders, and the same is true for the Dunk King.
But lightning breakthrough... seems to be a talent for the outside, and it requires a lot of holding the ball to attack.
At this time, someone interrupted his train of thought.
"Boss, the guy opposite is quite popular."
In Beverly's voice, you can hear his envy of Cousins.
Wang Zelin looked back at Beverly and nodded: "After all, this is my home court!"
Beverly giggled: "When you came on the stage just now, the scene was quite shocking. I don't know if I will ever be loved by so many fans."
Wang Zelin smiled and said: "There will be a day, believe me!"
"Um."
Beverly nodded heavily and couldn't help but feel excited.
At different stages of life, people may not want the same things.
At first, Beverley was thinking about how to join the NBA, and then get a stable contract and gain a foothold in the NBA.
Up to now, he has entered a stable rotation lineup, and naturally he has a vision for the next step - to have a fan base!
Beverley hopes that one day, he can have a group of loyal fans like Wang Zelin, and he can hear the fans cheering for him whether at home or away.
…
At the start of the game, Wang Zelin and Cousins jumped the ball.
"Shet!"
After a complete defeat at the beginning, Wang Zelin's take-off height and bullet speed were both higher than Cousins's, leaving the latter helpless.
Trail Blazers offense.
Lillard advanced to the top of the key.
Wang Zelin ran directly to the basket.
According to the Trail Blazers' past practice of starting games, as long as Trail Blazers No. 36 squats down to the basket and finds a good position, the point guard only needs to throw the ball into the sky, and then wait for assists 1...
Therefore, Cousins will not let Wang Zelin get close to the basket.
Although he gained a few kilograms, Cousins' speed was still good, and Wang Zelin was unable to overtake him.
Then get on your body!
"Bang!"
The two of them rushed to the basket at the same time. When they were on the right side of the service line, their shoulders bumped together and then separated quickly.
"..."
Cousins was shocked: Has this guy become stronger again?
After choosing to gain weight in the summer, he thought he would be able to compete with Wang Zelin this season, but it turned out that he seemed to be overthinking.
"Enough, but it's a pity..."
Wang Zelin showed a ferocious smile.
"What's the pity?"
Cousins asked.
"It's a pity it's still not hard enough!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Zelin leaned forward and pushed with his waist. After knocking out of position, he borrowed a pass from Lillard and leaned sideways on Cousins, preventing him from taking off. He grabbed the ball with his left hand and dunked it into the basket.
basket.
"boom!"
"Man, it seems that your weight gain plan is going to continue. How can you play with me with such little strength?"
Yan dunked one, and Wang Zelin started talking trash.
"I thought that DeMarcus's tonnage and strength this year would be able to sweep the league. Now it seems that we still underestimated the Blazers' No. 36."
On the sidelines, Kings head coach Mike Malone expressed his emotions.
The offensive assistant behind him said: "So, DeMarcus' heavy plan cannot be stopped."
On the field.
Wang Zelin had already played back to his own basket, and suddenly found that his cousin was missing.
I looked up and saw, good guy, Thomas' ball was actually added to the opposite three-point line, and I fainted all by myself.
"I kind of know how this guy's lightning breakthrough was awakened!"
To make a complaint, when he saw that Cousins didn't want to pass the ball after halftime and was actually preparing to rush into the penalty area, Wang Zelin hurriedly defended it.
While stretching out his hands, he sarcastically said: "Don't tell me, this is what you said ~ where it becomes different?"
Cousins said without changing his expression: "You'll know right away."
Then, he stopped near the three-point line, dribbled sideways, and made a gesture to signal his teammates to pull away.
"Hey! Look at this posture, Cousins is ready to challenge the king in singles?"
Cousins' move made Wang Meng instantly excited.
"Is this what you mean? But when I look at it, I always feel awkward!"
Xu Jicheng scratched his head in confusion.
Generally speaking, only outside players will choose to duel in this position, which can show their superb breakthrough skills. Aren't the inside players always wrestling in the low post?
At this stage, Cousins has not yet mastered long-range shooting. He has taken 3 three-pointers this season, with a hit rate of 0. Therefore, Wang Zelin chose to take a step back to prevent breakthroughs.
Unexpectedly, Cousins saw Wang Zelin so far away and did not make a breakthrough. He raised his hand and threw a long two-pointer.
This time, the fans in the stands and the two people in the live broadcast seats were immediately stunned.
What? I’ve been working on it for a long time, and that’s it?!
This season, Cousins has scored more points than in previous seasons, which is naturally inseparable from the number of shots taken. So in his opinion, it doesn't matter if he takes a few shots in vain.
"Duang~"
Basketball hits the basket.
Aldridge provoked and grabbed the rebound.
"Quick attack!"
Lillard continued to advance, and when he saw Wang Zelin running at the front, he flicked his hand and sent a long pass.
The Kings had Thomas and Cousins returning to defense in time. Wang Zelin did not mess up after receiving the ball. When Batum and Matthews rushed to the penalty area at the same time, they made a wonderful pass and assisted Batum on the left wing who was facing Thomas' defense.
Mu dunked the ball.
When returning to defense, Wang Zelin looked at Cousins side by side with him and said with a smile:
"If this is your change, I saw it...ahem, it's really surprising!"
"Ha ha!"
When Batum and Matthews heard this, they laughed exaggeratedly.
