NBA backer king

Chapter 261 Selection of Fifty Superstars

The Knicks attacked, and the boss Ewing came to the low post on the left wing. He didn't try to get a deep position, but took the initiative to withdraw one step outside the paint area.

He knows very well that he couldn't squeeze in the old K in his rookie season, and now that he has gained 129 kilograms, he can't squeeze in even more. It is impossible to get a deep position.

One step away from the left waist of the paint area, when he got the ball, the old K guarded behind him and prevented him from turning around.

But it didn't bother him. He took out his best Fang Zibang, turned around in the air, and when he fell one step away, he had already turned from his back to the front basket, and then took off for the second time and made a mid-range shot.

Old Wang catches up with one step to block the block, but is already half a step behind.

This is also the strength of Fangzijump, which makes the defender unable to keep up with the rhythm, because the defender is behind, and when the attacker jumps forward, he cannot immediately follow up, and no matter how fast the reaction is, it will be half a beat behind.

"boom!"

Unfortunately, the ball was missed.

Ewing himself is one step away from the penalty area, and another step outside is two steps, a complete two-point distance. His two-point shooting percentage is less than 35%, which is not high. According to the probability, three balls can hit one.

AC Green protected the backcourt rebound and the Suns attacked.

In the ESPN commentary booth, Rowling shook his head and said: "This is also a successful defense. If Ewing keeps jumping outside, it is impossible for the Knicks to beat the Suns. Old K's efficiency will definitely help the team win."

Oldman went on to say: "This kind of ball, how should I put it, the more Ewing takes shots, the faster the Knicks will lose. The more he scores on this kind of ball, the more he wastes the ball. How can he win the game with less than [-]% shooting?"

Lao Wang came to the position one step below the free throw line and received the ball again.

This time, when the Knicks double-teamed him, he didn't choose to force himself, but chose to split the ball to Drexler, who was open on the left-wing three-point line.

"boom!"

With the opponent's small forward desperately returning to defense, Drexler made a three-pointer, but unfortunately missed.

"boom!"

However, Lao Wang had already squeezed Ewing away and entered the basket. At this time, he jumped up, grabbed the rebounded basketball with one hand, and made a dunk.

"Once entering the basket, Tie Jun's tonnage has an advantage. You can see that Ewing can't stand beside him at all." Zhang Lili laughed.

Su Qun said with a smile: "Director Zhang, this season we will broadcast live once a week. Now the ratings are getting better and better, and there are more and more domestic fans. The hotline outside the station will be blown up every time we live broadcast. We have also received many letters from fans to Old K. I heard that a conference room has been installed."

Zhang Lili laughed a few times and said: "He is in the Tiejun training hall on Fengshen Street, and now there are often fans outside.

That street has almost been built. There are pavements in front and a lot of open space behind. Many basketball courts have been built. He said that they will be provided to fans for free in the future, and it can be developed into a basketball base. "

"That's right. Fengshen Street will be the Sports Culture and Art Center of Capital City in the future. But Fengshen Street will be renamed in the future. What will be changed? Iron Street? Tiejun Street? Iron Street? Basketball Street? I don't know yet." Su Qun nodded, and followed Fengshen Street.

Lao Zhang took the opportunity to advertise for Old K's Fengshen Street. He has no objection at all. He is bound to Old K now. The more old K plays in the NBA, the better he will follow. The more stable his position on CCTV, the higher his status in the domestic basketball commentary circle.

The two boasted for a while, not to mention other places, at the moment in the capital, there are countless fans who watched the game and wanted to go to Fengshen Street to see it tomorrow.

On the court, shooting guard John Starks attacked with the ball.

He is the main force of the Knicks' outside offense. The Suns arranged for Drexler to switch defenses and blocked him.

After playing a fake move, he dribbled the ball under the crotch, changed hands to control the ball, and rushed the defender from the left, but he did not completely shake off the defender, and was stuck on the right by Drexler. This breakthrough seemed a bit muddy.

Two steps into the three-point line, seeing that he couldn't get rid of the defender, the low-post AC Green also stepped up to double-team him, so he suddenly made a sudden stop jumper and threw himself in the air.

Green and Drexler jumped up almost simultaneously to block the shot, but the ball still flew past their fingertips.

This shot is very difficult, and it is very difficult to make a shot.

"brush!"

But unfortunately, the ball went in, and it went into the basket hollow.

"It's useless for you to let that old K guard me, and the sum of you is not as good as old K." After succeeding, John Starks became excited and sprayed trash talk at the two.

Moreover, he was very intelligent, and he actually wanted to provoke the relationship between the two of them and Lao Wang.

"Boy, do you want to be spanked by me?" Lao Wang, who was running upfield, yelled loudly after hearing this.

"Pfft!"

Everyone on the Suns side laughed.

Nix was so angry that his face was red.

"Humph!"

John Starks snorted angrily, gave Old Wang a hard look, and then chased after Drexler.

He didn't dare to provoke Lao Wang, if he was spanked again, he would die.

Below the free throw line, Lao Wang got the ball again and immediately raised the ball high with both hands.

With his height and control over the ball, he is not afraid of being snatched by holding it like this. Even if someone sneaks up from behind, the success rate is not high.

With his tonnage and strength, no one can squeeze him, and the possibility of making mistakes is very small.

Obviously, the Suns have made more changes in this offense.

Other players increased their running, constantly pulling the Knicks' defense, preventing them from double-teaming Lao Wang and creating singles opportunities for Lao Wang.

This puts the Knicks in a difficult situation. When they double-team, their own people will let go. With K's vision and passing ability, no open space will be wasted.

Without double-teaming, Ewing's single defense can prevent the old K, so there is something wrong.

But there was no time for them to choose. The next moment, Old K leaned over and began to hit Ewing.

"Oh!"

After being hit once, Ewing was knocked back half a step.

"boom!"

In the next moment, Pharaoh turned around quickly, then jumped up and smashed the ball into the basket.

"Beautiful! This attack took less than two seconds from receiving the ball to completing the attack. The technical movements are very powerful and concise."

Zhang Lili praised and said: "Now Tiejun will no longer have to completely knock down the defense before completing the attack like before. That kind of physical energy consumption is very huge, and the attack time is wasted, which leads to a great chance of double-teaming him.

An offense like this is the best, and it is somewhat similar to another behemoth O'Neal. "

Su Qun nodded and said, "Indeed, now old K uses more turns and steps, and O'Neill is the same."

Zhang Lili said: "O'Neal's low-post pace is very flexible, more flexible than Tiejun's pace, and he can use it better.

But Tie Jun has his strengths, that kind of strong relying ability can help him get more space.

At this point, O'Neal gained space through his hits and steps, more flexible shaking and shark turns.

The two also have one thing in common. When there is no space, these two giant beasts will use the method of horizontal pushing and crushing to crush everything strongly, win with strength, and push everything horizontally. "

Looking back, Ewing tried to get into the paint again.

He knew that he couldn't beat Old K if he shot from the outside. He had to enter the paint area and shoot after getting close to the basket. Only by improving his efficiency could he have a chance to win.

However, Lao Wang has always insisted on the defensive strategy of preventing breakthroughs and not preventing shots against their three super centers.

And now his mobility is better, which makes him more confident in implementing this defensive strategy.

When Ewing relied on his quicker movement to get around him and enter the paint, he quickly retreated and then went close.

Once he was close to Ewing, he immediately took out his greatest magic weapon and fought hard.

"Damn!"

Ewing changed to an air cut, and as soon as he entered the paint on the baseline, he was caught by the retreating old Wang. A huge force pushed him towards the baseline, and he lost his center of gravity and his feet scattered. He was squeezed to the edge of the baseline and had no place at all.

He can only get out of the paint, wash the offensive three seconds outside, and try to enter again.

This time, he went around from the top and entered from the waist, but just after taking a step, he was blocked by Lao Wang again.

Lao Wang stretched out his arms, blocking the boss's space, and shouted like a tiger blocking the way: "Get out, this road is blocked."

Ewing circled around again, and the old Wang Xiong stepped sideways and blocked in front in time.

In this way, Ewing failed to enter the paint several times, and the Knicks' offensive time was about to run out. Charles Smith missed a strong shot over AC Green, Lao Wang turned around and got a backcourt rebound, and the Suns attacked.

"In the past three seasons, two new-generation giant centers have faced off against three super centers. The former has advantages in tonnage, confrontation and strength, and the latter has advantages in technology and athleticism..." In the ESPN commentary seat, Rollin said this, but was interrupted by his partner Oldman.

Oldman said: "In fact, the old K should be separated from O'Neal, because O'Neal also has the same or even superior athletic talent as the three super centers, and his physical talent is even better."

Luo Lin smiled and nodded, and said: "In terms of athletic talent, among the five, Old K is indeed far behind. Even if he has improved a little now, he is still far behind."

Oldman said: "But in these three seasons of confrontation, except for the first half of the season when K entered the league and was blown away by these four players, he was able to interact with them at other times. Of course, he was still weaker than the other four players in terms of scoring in his rookie season, but last season and this season, his offensive ability has not lost to the other four players at all."

Luo Lin asked: "Then how can old K make his offensive ability compete with them when his athletic quality is not as good as theirs? There is no doubt that his confrontation ability and relying on his ability to fight are his unique moves and trump cards. This is the reason why he can not lose to the four on the offensive end."

Nodding his head, Oldman smiled and said, "His hitting technique is already his signature technique, which is unique in the world. Combined with his hook, he can maintain a high offensive efficiency. Now that he has more throwing techniques, his offensive threat is even greater."

"Carter, who do you think has a better chance of becoming the fourth super center, Old K or O'Neal?" Rollin asked suddenly.

Oldman pondered for a while, and then said: "In terms of record and honor, of course Old K has the upper hand. In terms of personal statistics, Old K is not weaker than O'Neal, and even a little bit stronger than O'Neal. In terms of contribution to the team, Old K is not weaker than O'Neal.

It's hard for me to choose, yes, they are all real behemoths, a type of center that has never appeared in the league, and there are two ends at once. I think the form of the league will also change because of them.

In fact, because of the appearance of Old K, the Suns have interrupted the Bulls' three consecutive championships, and he has changed something in this league. "

Luo Lin nodded and said, "It's also hard for me to choose, so let the two of them compete with continuous performance."

Oldman said with a smile: "The Magic are also very strong this season, but it is difficult to break out of the East. In contrast, the Suns have a greater chance of breaking out of the West.

In the regular season, the Suns and the Bulls won one and lost one. I think that if the Suns beat the Bulls again this season and win the championship, there is no doubt that the old K, who holds two championships, will be more qualified and qualified to become the fourth super center than O'Neal.

You know, so far, none of the three super centers has won a championship. If old K wins two championships, he will definitely become the fourth super center, and no one can object. "

……

"Stop dreaming, I won't let old K succeed."

At this time, O'Neal suddenly roared at his home: "I want to kill Jordan and his Bulls, reach the finals, and then kill old K, and become the fourth super center. That position is mine, and no one can take it away."

In fact, he is not the most annoying person, Alonzo Mourning is.

He was extremely talented and participated in the draft with O'Neal, but he was crushed by the big shark, and then another old K came. The two giants completely took away his glory. For three seasons, he has been somewhat unknown.

But at this time, when the media was discussing the fourth super center, the candidate ignored him directly. Why?
……

At Madison Square Garden, Rowling nodded, and suddenly smiled and said, "The NBA is about to go through 50 years of history. Recently, an insider broke the news that the league plans to select the 50 greatest superstars in history in the past [-] years.

I think the three super centers are definitely going to enter this series, but I don't know if O'Neal and old K are qualified to attack the top [-]. "

"Well, I also heard that the selection will be held in 96. They will be voted by retired players, media, coaches and reporters. All hard honors are one of the elements of the selection." Oldman said.

"Fifty superstars?"

At this moment, the eyes of many NBA superstars sitting in front of the TV lit up.

"Fifty superstars?"

O'Neill was no exception. When he heard the top [-] stars, his breath was stagnant.

"Fifty superstars?"

Mourning's eyes also lit up.

At this time, Luo Lin analyzed: "In terms of personal statistics, hard honors, and influence, Old K is more promising than O'Neal. But there is still time, and O'Neal still has a chance to catch up."

Oldman nodded, and said to the camera: "Shaq, did you see that? Come on, you are only one championship less than old K, and you are one less best second team. You have a chance."

"I know." O'Neill growled in a low voice in front of the TV.

"Damn it, and me." Mourning, who was also in front of the TV, said unwillingly.

……

Madison Square Garden, the game continues, but the situation is clearly biased towards the Suns.

The Knicks are obviously inferior to the Suns in terms of quality and quantity of low-post offense. The Suns rely on Lao Wang's low-post offense and basket offense to pull the team's overall efficiency to 51%, surpassing the Knicks by [-] percentage points.

At the same time, because of the lack of Oakley, Ewing's rebounding ability was originally the weakest among the three super centers, and Old K's rebounding ability has now surpassed the three super centers, so in terms of rebounds, the Suns also have the upper hand.

Relying on these two advantages, the Suns firmly won the game 115:102.

老王上场42分钟，21投14中，命中率66.6%，12罚8中，拿到了36分19篮板8助攻4盖帽3失误4犯规的数据。

对位的尤因，打了43分钟，26投11，命中率42.3%，8罚6中，砍下28分8篮板2助攻1抢断2盖帽2失误5犯规的数据。

From team and personal performance, from personal offense to personal defense, he had the upper hand in the matchup in this game.

After playing the Knicks, the Suns rushed to the last city of this round of road trip overnight, Cleveland, tomorrow they will challenge the Cavaliers in back-to-back games.

The last time the lineup was not complete, the Suns lost to the Cavaliers at home. Although this time it was an away game and it was a back-to-back game, the team still wanted to win.

However, the management and the coaching staff require the players to do what they can and not to be injured in back-to-back games. This is the bottom line.

Now that the schedule is halfway through, maintaining health is the most important thing. Waiting for Lightning to return, and fighting again in the playoffs, the most important thing is to hit the championship.

When he got up in the morning, Lao Wang checked his phone, and there were two text messages from Hawksman and Yu Feihong.

First, I looked at Yu Feihong's and told him that he had already arrived in Phoenix, and that he would celebrate the New Year with him when he returned home.

Hawksman's text message told him that Wang Tielong and the five of them had arrived in Los Angeles.

He immediately dialed the phone, and it was connected after a few rings. It was Yu Feihong's voice, with the sound of an engine, and it should be in the car.

"Feihong, are you driving?"

"Yes, Miss Xiaofen and I went out to buy and prepare the materials for the New Year's Eve dinner."

"Prepare more, my five brothers from my hometown are coming soon, and they can all eat."

"I know, don't worry."

"That's fine, I'm hanging up."

In the back-to-back games on the 30th, the playing time of the main players was controlled. Pharaoh played for only 30 minutes before he came down. In addition, everyone was in a mediocre state and the Cavaliers were not weak. The Suns were double-killed by the Cavaliers this season.

This game is over, and all the games in January 95 have also been played. The Suns have 1 wins and 30 losses.

The Spurs are still No. 30 in the Western Conference, with 12 wins and [-] losses, one less game, half a game more than the Suns.

Mosaic, the third in the Western Conference, has won two consecutive victories, overtaking the Suns by half a game, tied for first in the Western Conference with the Spurs, third with the Suns, and fourth with the Jazz.

But the Suns are only one more win than the Jazz, who are now 29 wins and 14 losses.

This record made the Suns management and coaching staff a little anxious.

But there is no way. The impact of Kevin Johnson's absence is still great, which directly reduces the level of the first position a lot. The Suns' organizational function has the greatest impact, and their offensive ability is second.

But don't worry too much, because the Spurs and Mosaic are both in the Southwest Division. Only one of them can enter the top three in the playoffs. If they both enter the top three in the Western Conference in the regular season, then one of them will definitely be ranked No. 4. A position will be made up by No. 4 in the regular season.

So even if the Suns fall to fourth, it doesn't matter, they will automatically enter the top three in the Western Conference playoffs.

However, the rules are the rules, and the team dare not slack off. When the lineup is rotated, it is still necessary to try to win as many games as possible, and strive to gain home court advantage in the playoffs.

Personally speaking, Lao Wang is not willing to let the Jazz pass by, he does not want the postman to ride on his head and shit.
