Chapter 54 Hollow!

All of the Blazers' goals at the start of this game were related to Malone.

Knicks players understand why the old Nelson traded Malone with Ewing.

Ma Long's presence on both offense and defense is too strong!

It is completely the strength of a super insider!

"A monster like that little fat guy from the Magic."

"Why are there so many insider monsters these days?"

Ewing's mentality has also recovered a lot, feeling in his heart, he regarded Malone as O'Neill, put him on the same level as him, and showed the most serious attitude,

As a 33-year-old super center with the strength of a superstar, he naturally knows how to play the best way.

Ewing made the same choice as Karl Malone, and also entered the bottom line of the basket, giving up the mid-range to his teammates.

The Knicks pass the ball quickly.

Oakley made an off-ball pick-and-roll for John Starks, and Hawkins circled the defense in time, not giving John Starks a chance to catch the ball.

But after Oakley finished the screen, he gave Derek Harper a pick and roll.

Derek Harper used the pick-and-roll to break through, attracting the attention of Clifford and Malone, and then hoisted the ball to the basket.

Although Ma Long was in place in time to defend, Ewing had already seized the opportunity, with an unpretentious low-post footstep, avoiding his blocking shot and hitting a throw!

5 is better than 6!

incredible!
This hit is really beautiful.

Ma Long has personally experienced what a center textbook is.

Ewing's low-post skills are too comprehensive.

At the beginning, I just didn't know him well. After playing a few rounds, Ewing, who calmed down, could always find a way to put the damn basketball into the basket.

If it was Malone himself, it would be difficult to play such an offense in the face of such a huge size gap.

His technical comprehensiveness and basic skills are far behind Ewing.

"After all, there is such a big age difference, and it's normal that the skills are not as good as Ewing."

"I don't need to play like this either."

Malone thought.

People have what they are good at and what they are not good at.

While having self-knowledge, you can't underestimate yourself.

Be confident, don't be arrogant and inferior.

Only when the athletes are in a confident mental state can they display a better competitive state.

In the frontcourt, Ma Long caught the ball with his back and slammed into the paint area, found a confrontation with his elbow, and used his strength to complete the turn.

Ewing was stiffened by his elbow and had no time to interfere. Malone's signature turnaround jumper had already been shot.

Swish!
5 is better than 8!

Malone waved his wrist.

Although not as comprehensive as the gorilla's technology, Malone's specialized technology can also have the same or even better offensive efficiency!

Ewing's big black face was full of helplessness.

He felt that what he discussed with his good brother before the game against Malone was bullshit.

So high, turning so fast, and using a straight-arm jumper!

Are you worried about someone coming to cap you in a helicopter? !
The most outrageous thing is that this rookie's use of elbows is so good that it is perfectly integrated into the technique.

This style of play is so weird!

How to prevent this!

Ewing was so depressed that he wanted to go to the Empire State Building to fight a wave of planes.

He put all his depression into the offense.

After holding down a lot of the Blazers' defense, Ewing gave the ball to John Starks on the outside.

John Starks caught the off-ball screen and found his chance to catch the ball and shoot immediately.

Clang.

Hard work!
Ma Long judged the landing point, bypassed Ewing, and fought for rebounds with Oakley almost hand-to-hand.

You elbow me, I elbow you, Michelle Ice City is sweet~
In the end, relying on the bonus of hanging and the advantage of height and wingspan, Malone grabbed the rebound while Oakley grinned!
After playing several regular season games, Ma Long has fully adapted to the intensity of grabbing a rebound and fighting in this era, and he is getting better and better at using his advantages.

Malone didn't make a long pass, and grabbed the ball with both hands to avoid Oakley's back.

After protecting the ball, Malone judged the situation and gave the ball to Clifford who responded.

Clifford then passed to Rhodes.

Rhodes tentatively launched a fast break and was blocked by Derek Harper.

Although the 32-year-old Derek Harper does not have the All-Star strength at his peak, he has been selected to the second team of the All-Defensive Team twice in a row, and his defensive skills are quite profound.

Rhodes saw no success and no strength.

After his teammates settled down, he called Malone for a pick-and-roll.

Derek Harper guarded against this move, but the quality of Malone's cover was so good that even if he was prepared, he was still blocked tightly.

Rhodes used the cover to successfully advance from the middle, and saw the Knicks' three frontcourt players with a high degree of tacit understanding change.

Ewing remained unmoved by protecting the paint.

Oakley watched Clifford, preventing him from receiving the ball, and at the same time kept a pinch threat.

When Malone cut in, it was Anthony Mason Jr. who switched to defend him.

Anthony Mason Jr. weighs a full 113kg and has enough tonnage. Like Rodman, he is also a 'Little Hayes' who can defend from the 3rd to the 5th position.

Ewing was not good at defending Malone alone, and neither was Oakley, so he decisively replaced another brother.

As a super center with mid-range shooting as his main offensive method, Ewing knows how to prevent the discomfort of his type of center.

The small defense is big, and the work is over with constant top and bottom interference.

Don't ask for a cap.

With Ma Long's height and his straight-arm jumper, Ewing didn't think anyone could cover him.

Anyway, it can't be covered, so it's better to increase the interference intensity.

Anthony Mason Jr. has tonnage and strength, and his speed and flexibility are better than Oakley. He has been following Malone who is running.

Rhodes broke through with the ball, gave up the attack in the paint area guarded by Ewing, and gave the ball to Harvey Grant who was emptied.

Harvey Grant was a little annoyed when he saw that he was left empty.

Just look down on me like that?

Harvey Grant shot decisively.

duang~
In extreme anger, Harvey Grant responded to the Knicks with a skillful strike!

Fortunately, Ma Long had a bad premonition and found a good position in advance to grab the offensive rebound.

The Knicks have a small defense and a big defense, so it is difficult to restrict him from rebounding.

Malone's high rebounding advantage is too great.

As long as he is not stuck by Ewing, the Knicks can't stop him.

After grabbing the rebound, Malone leaned against Anthony Mason Jr. on the right waist.

He could feel the thing pressing against the hollow of his knee from behind.

It's top and bottom again.

Do like Rodman.

There is Anthony Mason Jr. defending at the back, and Ewing sneaks up on the side.

Is it okay to sneak up on my 17-year-old rookie?
This is not good!
Malone passed the ball before Ewing double-teamed.

The tonnage and strength of the 113kg Anthony Mason Jr. are much stronger than that of the 95kg Rodman. Malone will not be able to dig into the paint area for a while.

He didn't get the badge bonus, and he couldn't guarantee the hit rate under this kind of interference, and he was easily attacked by Ewing from the side.

Not fully sure, Malone looked for opportunities again, led Anthony Mason Jr. to continue running, ran to the top arc, and then received a pass from Rhodes.

Little Anthony Mason did not follow out.

Malone has yet to shoot a three-pointer this season.

Compared with worrying about three-pointers, it is more important to focus on the inside.

The Trail Blazers don't just have one Malone.

Clifford and Rhodes both need his attention and timely support.

Seeing that he was emptied, Ma Long felt secretly refreshed.

He has [-]s but is not at the top level.

But for such a large space, you just need to have your hands!

He didn't make any adjustments either, and exerted strength on his legs, following his waist, and raised his arms.

Pressing the bowl with his hand and exerting force with his fingers, Ma Long threw the basketball with his fingertips!

Anthony Mason Jr. immediately retracted to the basket to protect the rebound.

But he didn't hear the clang of the iron, only an unusually crisp "swish!" '

Ma Long made a hollow three-pointer at the top of the arc!

5 is better than 11!

"Gift crab!"

Little Anthony Mason stared wide-eyed, feeling as if he had seen a ghost!

Isn't this guy a center forward?The big center still has three points?How did you practice the technique?
The Knicks were a little confused by Malone's three-pointer.

But no matter what, Ma Long's opening lightning strike brought a wave of offense!

Old Nelson decisively called a timeout.

The Trail Blazers have begun to open the score, and adjustments must be made!
