Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Bunny hop!"

Ewing's special skill is one of his signature offensive methods.

No one expected Zuo Li to use such a move.

The bunny hop is actually a jumping method, which allows the player to dribble the ball with his back to the basket and then jump to face the basket, so that he can complete a face-to-face jump shot or a direct layup.

This doesn't sound difficult.

However, there are very few people who know how to use it, and even fewer who can use it to kill people.

Its status is just like Tracy McGrady's pull-up jumper, Jordan and Kobe's fadeaway, and it is Ewing's unique skill in the league.

Others can use it, but it doesn't taste like it.

His steps are very big, and his jumps can create a lot of space. His unique jump choices are his unique skills.

At the same time, after jumping to face the frame, his stable shooting and finishing at the basket give him greater confidence in finishing.

However, the biggest drawback of this move is that it hurts the knees very much, and it takes too much control the moment it is released. However, precisely because of its difficulty, this move has become Ewing's special skill.

Only Ewing's jump step is called the "bunny hop," and only his "bunny hop" can drive Madison crazy.

Since Ewing retired, Bunny Bounce has become Madison's swan song, and fewer and fewer people in the league are using him inside, and no one can use his essence.

It’s no wonder the players can’t practice.

As I said before, this action requires a lot of talent. Your height, wingspan, and strength in confrontation must be sufficient, otherwise you will lose your balance under the opponent's confrontation if you can't get up in three steps, let alone get out of the way to shoot.

Besides, it also hurts the knee, so not many people will put in the effort to train. With the above-mentioned talent, wouldn't it be nice to rush in and hit hard or get stuck and wait for the cake?

This can also explain why many insider technologies have withered.

But these are not problems at all for Zuo Li. His height and wingspan are sufficient, and his body is strong enough. The only problem may be that his touch is not soft enough, but this problem has been solved under Ewing's teachings and his hard training.

Therefore, what Ewing said before the game, "Zuo Li learned all my skills" was not a lie at all, but true. Zuo Li used his extraordinary learning ability to learn Ewing's skills in three months.

The unique skill of 'rabbit jumping' has also been put to his own use.

So tonight, Zuo Li used this technique for the first time in the game. The ‘bunny hop’ reappeared in Madison.

Almost all the old Knicks fans unconsciously exclaimed at this moment.

Spike Lee stood up and opened his arms, as if he wanted to embrace that legendary era.

Even New York boss Dolan lit up a new cigar...

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a standard 'bunny hop' in Madison Square Garden." Barkley shook his head with some emotion in his tone.

"I believe you now, man, Zuo Li has really learned." Smith turned to look at Ewing and said.

At this time, Ewing nodded silently, with relief and a hint of sadness in his eyes, as if he was thinking of the prosperous years in Madison.

"When I was in New York, I was only one step away from making a great contribution. I hope Zuo Li can make up for this regret," Ewing said.

New York fans are immersed in the joy and memories of seeing the rabbit jumping again, but the impact from the outside world is even greater!

What?!

Zuo Li, who has always been attracted by the aesthetics of violence and can dunk but never shoot, has begun to learn inside skills?!

This does not allow others to live!

What were people's views on Zuoli in the past?

Of course he is the new spokesperson for violent aesthetics. Although his dribbling skills are very good, once he enters the penalty area, he is one of the most violent insiders, with all kinds of dunks, all kinds of confrontations, and all kinds of one-on-two extremely violent.

Although Zuo Li can also play in post-ups, he basically just needs to fight twice to finish. How can there be so many changes in pace and shooting.

Although Zuo Li like this is valued by various teams, he can still comfort himself. If Zuo Li can't play like this for a few years, he will still be a blue-collar worker like Howard sooner or later.

But things are different now. Zuo Li can actually use the 'rabbit jump'. Does that mean that he has dabbled in various inside techniques?

In this way, the danger level of Zuoli will be greatly increased!

In the next few rounds of fighting, people confirmed that Zuo Li's 'rabbit jump' just now was no accident.

Because he hit 4 goals out of 5 times in the next few minutes, especially this fifth goal, he can be selected as the elite center forward.

Zuo Li was holding the ball in the low post, Collison was carrying it, and Jeff Green immediately came over to defend him. This was a double attack.

But Zuo Li seemed to have predicted the opportunity in advance, resisted in advance, got out of the way, turned around and shot a jumper in three steps, and threw the ball out the moment Jeff Green was in place, and also conveniently created a hitter from Green.

twenty one!

After scoring the goal, Zuo Li spread his hands and seemed to be saying: Man, wake up, I'm a skilled center, you can't guard me like this!

The image of Green with his hands on his hips and helplessly shaking his head shocked the hearts of coaches all over the league. Zuo Li can now not only play skills on the outside, but he can also do it on the inside!

"Zuo Li is completely unstoppable now, and there is no way to deal with the flanking attack," Smith said.

Zuo Li scored 18 points in the second quarter and 28 points and 10 rebounds in the half. The Knicks even scored 59 points in the half, almost reaching 60 points.

The Thunder's efficiency was still low. They only scored a measly 30 points at halftime and were already 29 points behind.

In the third quarter of the game, the Thunder adjusted their tactics. Thunder head coach Brooks obviously didn't want to surrender. This game was broadcast live across the United States, and it was in Madison Garden. Such a fight would be a huge blow to the Thunder, which was dominated by rookies.

.

Especially Durant and Westbrook, these two people he has high hopes for, the future stars, if they are solved by Zuo Li alone, it will definitely affect the outside world's evaluation of them.

So in the third quarter, Brooks frantically arranged for three people to double-team Zuo Li. Once Zuo Li went to the low post, don't hesitate, double-team! Double-team hard!

As for the offense…

Three sentences summary:

Jeff Green, give the ball to Durant!

Collison, give the ball to Durant!

Mason, give the damn ball to Durant!

As for how Durant plays...that's his business.

Is this tactic effective?

Valid and invalid.

Effectively, Durant's score continued to rise. Near the end of the third quarter, his score finally exceeded the 20-point mark, taking a full 21 shots...

It was ineffective because although Zuo Li's scoring efficiency was reduced, he still stirred up trouble in the interior and distributed the ball when double-teamed. David Lee and Randolph had their cake and eat it, and they both scored 6 points in a single quarter.

The points and 8 points all came from open shots under the basket.

With such efficiency, after three quarters, the Knicks led 90-50 by a full 40 points. Except for Zuo Li, four Knicks players have scored in double figures...

"It's terrible." Barkley's comment was particularly heartbreaking. It is estimated that few Thunder fans are still watching the game.

Ewing smiled very heartily and said: "This is the easiest game to commentate on. Everyone can relax a little more in the fourth quarter."
