against the front

Chapter 248 Skyhook Storm
"This is a game beyond everyone's expectations. Before the game started, if someone told me that the Mavericks would lose to the Kings by more than 30 points at home, then I would definitely say that this guy is crazy. In the first game, the Mavericks just won the Kings by 31 points. No one could have expected that in just two days, the same two teams, the same stadium, would have such a huge contrast!"

"And the root of all this is the sky hook! After this scoring method that disappeared for more than 20 years suddenly appeared, no one knew how to defend him or how to limit him. In this game, Yan Hua used the sky hook He made 26 hook shots and hit 18 goals in total. This kind of hit rate is simply insane. Like more than 20 years, the sky hook is still an unrestricted scoring method even in this era!"

"First it was a dream step, and now it is a sky hook. This is simply a miracle in NBA history!"

As Yan Hua expected, on the second day after the game ended, almost the entire American media was full of reports about the Skyhook. Even the news that the Lakers beat the Suns away and advanced to the Western Conference Finals was squeezed out. As for Yan Hua's tit-for-tat behavior in the fourth quarter, except for the Dallas media, almost no media reported it.

Even the TNT TV network, taking advantage of the heat of public opinion, replayed the game between the Kings and the Mavericks at noon the next day, but even a rebroadcast of the game also achieved a 7% ratings , which shows the influence of Skyhook in the United States.

On May 2010, 5, the Kings, who returned to the home court, ushered in the fifth matchup of the series. Originally, the Kings had already achieved a 11-3 lead and there were two home courts in hand. The Mavericks are basically a certainty, but this is another victory after waking up, but it has attracted the attention of countless fans and the media.

In this already insignificant game, the sideline press box of Arco Arena was full for the first time, and almost the entire American media, including USA Today, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, these are the best media in the United States , all sent reporters to the Arco Arena to get first-hand information about the game, and to conduct an exclusive interview with Yan Hua after the game.

Those flocking frantically to Sacramento are not only those media who are chasing the heat everywhere, but also those politicians, celebrities, movie stars who like to rub the heat, and those who have become middle-aged uncles, and even hardcore Kareem fans who are uncles. Obviously, the arrival of these people is to be able to see the style of the Skyhook on the spot. Even Kareem-Jabbar himself was officially invited by the NBA to the Arco Arena, together with NBA President David Stern Sit in a box at the Arco Arena and watch the game.

"Lu, do you have anything to say? About this little guy from Huaguo?" When the game started, Yan Hua lived up to expectations and showed off his sky hook stunt. David Stern, who was sitting in the box, , and asked Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who was sitting next to him, with a smile on his face.

"If this little guy is really able to use the big hook proficiently just by watching my game video, as those media said, then this little guy's talent and learning ability are definitely rare in the world. With his health and current momentum, his achievements in the future will definitely not be lower than mine." Although Jabbar was shocked and disappointed when he heard the news of the reappearance of the Skyhook, but as a historical superstar As a superstar, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has a very broad mind. For Yan Hua who "copied" his signature stunt, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did not have any dissatisfaction or malice. Even when Yan Hua showed a sky hook stunt in the game just now Afterwards, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar suddenly had a feeling of successors.

Just looking at Yan Hua on the field, Kareem thought of his disappointing apprentice. Since entering the league, Kareem has conducted one-on-one targeted training for Andrew Bynum. Until now, Five full years have passed, but this guy is far from meeting Kareem's psychological expectations, and even Kareem is so angry that he doesn't want to teach him.

"Yeah, when this little guy participated in the draft, he was far from being as good as he is now. In just two seasons, he has already entered the ranks of top stars." After Kareem Abdul-Jabbar finished speaking, David Ster En echoed it, but David Stern also felt a little regretful in his heart. Although Sacramento's football market is hot, and there is no competition from teams from the four major leagues, it is a small city after all, and the entire metropolitan area There are only more than 200 million people. Just like the unsatisfactory Houston Rockets, they simply cannot develop the commercial value behind a top star.

"Lu, in a few days, the king will go to Los Angeles. I really want to see the expressions of the fans in Los Angeles when they see the sky hook." He was suppressed by the king at the beginning and barely resisted for a few minutes. After the Mavericks are already behind by a big score, this game is meaningless to David Stern, who is watching the game in the box. David Stern is now thinking about what to do Using the gimmick of the Skyhook, the Western Conference finals between the Kings and the Lakers became the hottest, attracting more attention, gaining more attention and ratings.

"In that case, it will definitely be very interesting." After hearing what David Stern said, Kareem-Jabbar just smiled slightly, and then shifted his gaze to the court, although Kareem-Jabbar is the Lakers Famous, one of the greatest stars in the history of the Lakers, but facing Yan Hua, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar developed a "love of talent" and wanted to find an opportunity to give Yan Hua some advice.

102 to 87, after the game ended, the Kings at home defeated the Mavericks as a guest very easily, thus defeating the Mavericks with a big score of 4 to 1, and joined the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.

Although the series between the Kings and the Mavericks has ended, the skyhook storm has just started. Before the schedule of the Western Conference Finals has been released, everyone's eyes have already gathered at the Staples Center. When it comes to the upcoming Western Conference finals, the sky hook is about to reappear at Staples, which will cause a sensation.

"Are you ready? Staples, the Skyhook is coming!" On May 2010, 5, after the king's charter flight to Los Angeles, the TNT television network responsible for broadcasting the Western Conference Finals also gave a comment to the current NBA column a special name.
