Start hanging from getting the Dayao template

Chapter 99 Hanging up and dunking!First win! (4k)

Just before the start of the competition day, all the awards were announced.

The NBA officially announced in the live program of the American Cable TV Sports Channel that Jordan was elected as the regular season MVP of the NBA90~34 season with 95% of the first choice and 95% of the votes.

It is worth mentioning that Malone also got a lot of votes, and he actually ranked fifth!

Only behind Olajuwon, it overwhelmed Pippen and Payton.

This is not a relationship between data—of course, Ma Long's data is very confusing, and it is very attractive to those experts in data flow.

But the main thing is the record.

The Trail Blazers are also number one in the Western Conference. As the absolute core, Malone's ranking in the top five is worthy of the name.

The general manager of the Trail Blazers, Bob Huisett, beat the general manager of the Lakers Jerry West and the general manager of the Bulls Jerry Laux, and won the best manager award in the 95-96 season.

This is also the second time Bob Whitsett has won the best manager.

Signing Malone is the main reason for winning the best manager.

Among other things, a proposal from Knicks owner James Dolan was passed.

James Dolan made a rather interesting suggestion in the owner meeting after the All-Star break.

Each team can get a spot, ignore the salary cap and ignore the maximum salary limit, and provide a player with any amount of salary.

This is the so-called off-cap contract.

At the end of the regular season, this proposal was also passed, but there are still many details to be discussed.

It's hard to say whether there is Jordan's reason in it.

Like it or hate the old hooligan, the basketball king has greatly increased the ratings of the NBA.

Jordan's '3000 million a year' contract is the result of this proposal.

——Jordan's annual salary this year is only 385 million.

So is Dudley.

However, in addition to Jordan, there are some stars who also enjoy off-cap contracts, such as Ewing and Garnett.

It's just that with Jordan's second retirement and the revision of the rules, these big contracts will also become hidden dangers.

"But none of this has anything to do with me."

Malone closed the newspaper and looked at the Rose Garden Arena outside the bus.

Tonight, he will start the playoff opener here.

Because it is home, the outside of the arena is full of Portland Trail Blazers fans.

They gathered around the team bus, shouting the names of their favorite players frantically, and waving cheering signs they made or bought.

"Horse-dragon!!!"

"Horse-dragon!!!"

"Horse-dragon!!!"

The voice calling Malone's name was the loudest.

Even the team's customized bus could not block the sound.

Tim Hardaway, who was sitting in front of Malone, joked: "Malon, you are the king of this city. If you reach out, many female fans are willing to have something to do with you."

Tim Hardaway's character is not as weak as Rhodes, and he is relatively less thorny, but he is also a typical black man, and he prefers to make colored jokes.

Clifford also frowned and said, "As far as Malone's NBA championship capital is concerned, it is not a problem to reproduce Chamberlain's legend."

Chamberlain, legend has it that he had sex with [-] women.

This legend is of course false. Chamberlain has a good personality, but he likes to brag.

However, Ma Long feels that his ability is really not a problem to reproduce.
Ma Long restrained his distracting thoughts and smiled: "I am a single-minded man."

After a meeting and joking, the bus also entered the arena under the guidance of the team.

Before the game, as the number one in the Western Conference, the Trail Blazers also accepted an interview.

Malone did not participate, and it was handled by Bob, Carlesimo and other uniform staff. He and his teammates concentrated on preparing.

At the same time, on the Chinese side, many fans tried every means to find time to watch the game.

This is the first time China TV broadcasts the nba playoffs.

And it's Malone's game.

They turned on the TV on time and watched the game attentively.

"The feeling of the playoffs seems to be completely different from the regular season. Look at the atmosphere in the arena. Tsk, I don't know what it will be like to watch the game live."

"Ma Long is really popular. I didn't expect people from our country to be so popular in Laomei."

"That's Malone awesome."

"This home atmosphere, if you wear a Kings jersey, will it be torn off?"

"You can't expect Trail Blazers fans to say 'you're so hot,' can you?"

"Why are you wearing a Kings jersey?"

"Since you are looking for excitement, then follow through to the end."

"ASS♂WE♂CAN"

Amidst the bizarre discussions, the entrance ceremony began.

The starting lineups of both sides are displayed on the big screen.

For the Trail Blazers, Tim Hardaway, Hawkins, Clifford, Malone, Sabonis.

This lineup has been tested for half a season and has been run-in.

Compared with Rhodes' version, in addition to being able to play pick-and-rolls and conventional tactics, the starting five players all have three-point shooting capabilities, can hit one star and four shots, and have stronger offensive capabilities.

Defensively, Tim Hardaway and Rhodes are pretty much the same.

Counting Malone's strengthening, the Trail Blazers are now stronger than in the first half of the season!
In comparison, the Kings are much inferior.

The starters are Tejus Edney, Mitch Richmond, Billy Owens, Brian Grant, Alden Polynice.

Just one Mickey Richmond.

Stability and perseverance are the most well-known characteristics of this All-Star.

Since his rookie season, he has averaged 20+ per game every year.

Stable as a rock.

It's a pity that nicknames are just nicknames after all.

Mitch Richmond's athletic ability was basically destroyed after he was reimbursed for half a season in January 93.

Although he worked hard to hone his skills later, just like Tim Hardaway, after being reimbursed and returning, his strength did not decline but rose.

But if the athletic ability is gone, it is gone.

The breakthrough has become weaker, and he can only rely on the strength after gaining weight to break through. Mid- and long-range shooting has become the main scoring method, but the shooting rate has also dropped significantly.

The regular season is okay, but in the more intense playoffs, Mitch Richmond will not be able to control the game.

Besides Mitch Richmond, the Kings don't have a second All-Star caliber player.

However, there are still qualified main strengths.

Tejus Edney averaged 10.8 points and 6.8 assists per game, and his performance was a bit worse than that of Little Flying Squirrel. He was the strongest second-round pick in the 95 class and the top three rookie point guards.

Billy Owens and others also have the strength of about 10 points.

In general, the Kings are also the main team basketball.

But no matter how the team is, the Blazers have an absolute advantage in the other four positions other than shooting guard.

The Kings also know that the gap between hard power and the Trail Blazers is too great.

But everyone is an athlete, and it is impossible to admit defeat because of lack of hard power.

Under the mobilization of the coach, they all tried to get off to a good start.

The opener is coming, but the opener is for the Trail Blazers.
Moments later, the referee blew the whistle to start the game.

Malone won the jump ball by relying on his height advantage, and the Blazers took the lead.

Tim Hardaway dribbles upfield.

With two bangs, Tim Hardaway passed Teus Edney, the strongest second-round pick, all the way to the basket, took off against Alden Polynes, and passed the ball from the armpit to Malone in the middle.

Malone was about to attack when he received the ball and was hugged by Brian Grant.

Foul action!

But even if it is a foul, it can't stop Malone!

Cut to Expert Badge Lights Up!

Speed, explosion +7!

Malone's explosive power soared, with Brian Grant hanging on his body, he forcibly dunked the ball in!

boom!
The basket vibrated violently!

Hanging people dunk!

"OMG!!!"

"Horse-dragon!!!"

The decibels in the Rose Garden Arena jumped up, making people's eardrums twitch.

brutal!

So brutal!

But they love it!
The domestic fans who were watching the live broadcast were also very excited by this earth-shattering dunk.

Those passers-by who had just glanced casually at first also remembered this compatriot who was struggling in a foreign country on the other side of the ocean.

on the field.

Malone lowered the basket and landed on his heel.

Glancing back from the corner of the eye, Malone could feel that Brian Grant's confidence had been shattered.

He secretly said in his heart that it was dangerous.

Although he has a tonnage advantage of about 115kg compared with 20kg Brian Grant, it is not so easy to dunk with a hug action.

Fortunately, the core has been strengthened to 98 points.

The strong waist and abdomen strength not only makes his private life more fulfilling, but also allows Ma Long to continue to complete the movements in this strong confrontational state!
Of course, height and wingspan is also a big advantage.

Malone doesn't need to take off to dunk, just tiptoe.

Although it is a hanging dunk, it is actually different from O'Neal's.

But the visual effect is similar.

It is said that the Kings' resolute foul also made Malone realize what the playoffs are for the first time.

"But it's useless to me Malone!"

Ma Long gradually became rampant.

For several consecutive rounds, Ma Long chiseled in extremely toughly in the low post.

Kings starting center Alden - Polynes 100kg.

Power forward Brian Grant is not a quality man either.

Just this inside line, even if the action is rough, it still can't stop Malone.

Halfway through the first quarter, Ma Long scored 11 points and led the team to an 8-point lead!
At the beginning, Malone played the Kings all over the face!
In the second half, Carlesimo worried that Malone was injured and replaced him.

With too many leads, Carlesimo confidently used the Kings to train, and boldly let many substitute players also play to feel the intensity of the playoffs.

Such a wave, the Trail Blazers have not been narrowed by the Kings!

After the first quarter, 22 to 30.

The Trail Blazers entered the intermission with an 8-point lead.

"The morale of the Kings is gone."

Carlisle smiled at Malone and said, "You hit too hard, even fouls can't stop you, you're really like a monster."

Ma Long just smiled, and he felt quite useful in his heart.

Before being double-teamed, Malone could only use a jumper to solve it.

Now he can play against double teams like O'Neal.

It's quite exhausting.

Ma Long added water and continued to appear after the intermission.

The Kings attack.

Tejus Edney moved upfield, and a high-frequency dribble crossed past Legler.

Legler has also been used to breaking through this season.

Because the Trail Blazers were too fierce in the first quarter, many teams had to come up to chase points in the second quarter. He was beaten by various outside stars, and his defensive experience has increased a lot. He turned around and followed up immediately.

Teyous Edney was aware of it, and he didn't dare to continue to break through.

During the regular season, he was very dissatisfied with Malone, but after being blocked by Malone in various ways, Teus Edney lost his spirit.

Tejus Edney drives to the front of the paint and passes to Mitch Richmond.

Mickey Richmond made a gesture to shoot, and Malone suddenly rushed in, covering all the space like a blanket!
This defensive prediction is Malone's growth in a season.

If it was before the serious injury, there were other means, and now Mickey Richmond has no choice,
Mitch Richmond made a false move to receive the ball, but Malone moved too fast and his core was too strong to get rid of it.

No one else had a chance, and Mitch Richmond had no choice but to make a strong shot.

Hua Guo's buttocks tightened, and Ma Long jumped up immediately.

It wasn't completely covered, but my fingertips got under the basketball!
The trajectory of basketball is like the trajectory of pissing after being squeezed dry by your wife after you are over [-] years old.

Clifford had been prepared for a long time and took the lead in getting the backcourt rebound and passing it to Legler.

Legler also didn't have the ability to initiate a fast break by himself, so he dribbled the ball steadily to the frontcourt and passed it to Malone who came to the high position.

The Kings double-teamed without hesitation and used various tricks.

Ma Long was impatient with the little tricks, and erected his elbows in a very subtle manner.

Bang bang.

The person in front of him screamed, and the space came out!
Ma Long made a successful breakthrough and came to the basket in one step and succeeded in dunking.

22 is better than 32!

After the attack was completed, Malone thought to himself: "Everyone made a double bang, my breakthrough is no worse than Tim Hardaway's!"Let the magician give me a review another day.

The Kings protested, but the home referee turned a blind eye.

There is no way, the game can only continue.

With Malone here, the pace of the Trail Blazers has been going smoothly.

After the first half, the Trail Blazers have already led by 15 points!

In the locker room, Mitch Richmond looked at the score with his waist down, his sweaty face was full of helplessness.

The Kings have increased the intensity of confrontation, focusing on Malone, who is playing in the playoffs for the first time.

As a result, Malone didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Even if the intensity of the confrontation is increased, and even the Kings' inside line has double-doubled and double-teamed many times, it is still difficult to stop Malone from attacking.

The card position is stable, it doesn't look like he is only 18 years old!

Not only that, Malone's elbows are flying up, and he is like a fish in water in the loose whistle blowing of the playoffs.

In just one half, the starting inside player of the Kings was tortured by Malone to the point of death!
The grinning power forwards who were tortured didn't want to play.

The other teammates couldn't help either.

The low position is just like the top lane of lol.

On this road, he died on the road, and no one knew about the stench of the body.
"No wonder he is called the number one talent in the NBA."

Mitch Richmond sighed, but he still stabilized his mind and cheered up his teammates.

It's a pity that the gap in strength cannot be made up by chicken soup.

Just halfway through the third quarter, the score has further expanded to 20 points.

This gap is too big.

There is no need to be the main force anymore.

Carlesimo scratched his head and replaced the main force.

In the wild cheers of the fans, Malone went off to be a spectator. In the end, the Trail Blazers beat the Kings by 20 points and won their first playoff victory.

　Thanks for the 200 point reward from 'The Falling Spaceship'.

　　I think some unnecessary games can be passed.It's no fun to write 100 million words in a season.
