In the live broadcast room of CCTV in the capital, the commentators were Song Shixiong and Xu Jicheng.

The CCTV Sports Department paid great attention to this All-Star broadcast, but they could not find a commentator who knew the NBA better. They had to pull out veteran Song Shixiong and newbie Xu Jicheng to form an old and young team.

Xu Jicheng only became CCTV's basketball consultant in 1992. His qualifications are very low, but he is one of the few CCTV people who knows something about the NBA.

But his unit is Xinhua News Agency. After graduating from college in 1986, he was assigned to the Xinhua News Agency Sports Department. He is a reporter for Xinhua News Agency, specializing in basketball coverage. Last year, he was hired as a basketball consultant for CCTV.

Seeing Zhou Quan's steal, Song Shixiong exclaimed: "Zhou Quan's reaction was really fast. I thought he was distracted just now, haha!"

Xu Jicheng smiled and said: "Teacher Song, so far, Zhou Quan's steal data in the NBA league is 3.3 times per game, first in the league, more than Jordan, who is second, averaging 2.8 times per game.

He averaged 0.5 steals per game, a figure that would be difficult for Jordan to catch up with. It can be said that Zhou Quan has definitely won the steals title this season."

"3.3 times?"

Song Shixiong was really surprised. He was not a professional basketball commentator, but he was also familiar with basketball. This statistic was really strong.

"Yes, this is the data provided by Zhang Li's coach. And so far, he is still the NBA's assist leader, averaging 13.8 times per game. The second place is his opponent John Stockton in this All-Star game, averaging 12.0 per game.

assists." Xu Jicheng said again.

"Average 13.8 assists per game?" Song Shixiong was surprised again.

Xu Jicheng added: "In addition, Zhou Quan is currently fifth in the NBA MVP rankings. This means that so far, he is the fifth best performer in the league this season. This is very impressive. He is only the fifth best player in the league this season."

Two seasons.”

"What? Zhou, Zhou Quan is so strong?" Song Shixiong was not surprised this time, but shocked.

As the ace commentator of CCTV's sports department, the American men's basketball team was named the Dream Team at last year's Olympic Games, allowing the whole world to see the standard of the NBA, including him.

At that time, when he saw Jordan and the others playing, he was shocked. It turns out that basketball can still be played like this, and it can also fly and play in the sky.

He knew that eleven of the Dream Team were from the NBA and were the strongest stars in the NBA. And now, Zhou Quan was actually one of the five best performers in the NBA. In other words, that group of people shocked him.

In the dream team, there were actually many people who performed worse than Zhou Quan, which immediately shocked him.

…

At the Delta Center Arena, the West attacked again, and the Glider stayed in the backcourt to provide support.

He and Jordan were absolute enemies, and he didn't know that Jordan was going to target Zhou Quan, but just after the opening scene, Barkley and the Postman lost their own men to double-team Zhou Quan. This was completely inconsistent with the atmosphere of the All-Stars, so he understood a little bit.

Come here, Jordan may have roped in Barkley and the others to deal with Zhou Quan.

But he is a Western Conference All-Star and cannot help Zhou Quan, so he can only pretend to be invisible and do his job well.

With Glider responding in the backcourt, Zhou Quan was of course unwilling to let the ball pass to Drexler, so he did not interfere and allowed John Stockton to receive the ball.

Now I only have one teammate, O'Neal, and the other three are traitors. Plus the five players from the Western Conference, they have to fight two against eight. If I want to perform well, I must not miss the opportunity on the defensive end.

John Stockton moved forward with the ball, but Zhou Quan defended and retreated from the front. He had no intention of pressing and kept retreating past the center line.

Seeing the postman looking at him from the left wing, John Stockton changed direction to the left to bypass Zhou Quan in front and go to the left wing.

He was relieved because there was a distance of two meters between him and Zhou Quan.

"What?"

But at this moment, Zhou Quan took a big step with his right foot, leaned forward greatly with his upper body, and at the same time stepped forward to grab the ball, he stabbed his ball with his right hand. His movement was very sudden, and there was obviously a distance of two meters between the two.

, but it was gone in this moment.

"predict!"

Zhou Quan's poke was fast and accurate. John Stockton was changing direction to the left. Before he could protect the ball, the ball was knocked away and rolled across the center line. He turned around in a hurry to grab the ball.

"The ball is stolen!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

At this time, Zhou Quan was in a posture where he was leaning forward greatly, taking long strides, with his right foot in front and his left foot behind. It was difficult for him to exert force, but he still exerted force and rubbed his left (back) foot violently.

He used his hands on the ground to support himself and pounced forward like a tiger.

This action, like a tiger pouncing on food, placed his center of gravity on his upper body, forcing his feet to move quickly and continuously.

He kicked forward slightly to avoid falling to the ground.

However, he could no longer catch up with John Stockton. He immediately kicked off his feet and jumped forward, rushing past the opponent. He flew more than two meters away and landed on the floor with a bang, taking the lead.

Caught the ball in one step.

"We got the ball!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly again.

But at this time, John Stockton also pounced on Zhou Quan, trying to steal the ball.

"Ball, give it to me quickly."

"Give me."

Jordan, Pippen, and Larry Johnson rushed over.

Zhou Quan was lying on the floor, slamming the ball with both hands. Stockton, who was above him, was very weak. Although his hands were on the ball, he couldn't grab it at all.

With his strength, he could have forced the ball out, but he didn't do that. He didn't want to pass it to Jordan and the other three guys. The purpose was to cause a competition for the ball, and then let O'Neal get the ball when he jumped the ball.

When Jordan saw that he was in a hurry, he went up to grab the ball, but Zhou Quan dunked the ball and he couldn't grab it for a while. At this time, the referee's whistle sounded and it was time to fight for the ball.

"Why not give it to me?" Jordan asked angrily.

"Old guy, do you think I don't know your little tricks?" Zhou Quan stood up and said in Michael Jordan's ear.

Jordan snorted angrily, turned around and left.

"Shaq, don't forget, I'm going to give you the ball."

"I'll get back to you."

Next, there was a jump ball in the center circle. Zhou Quan ran to O'Neal first, communicated with him, and then stood in the center circle.

"Crack!"

For the jump ball, Zhou Quan is taller than Stockton, has a longer wingspan, bounces faster and higher, and reacts faster. There is no suspense. He touches the ball first and flicks the ball towards O'Neal in the air. The ball hits accurately

flew over.

As soon as O'Neal caught the ball, Jordan and the others immediately asked him for the ball, but he didn't give it to him. He threw it with both hands and passed it back to Zhou Quan.

"Damn shark! Follow that bastard Iron Fist and wait and see. You'll feel better." Jordan cursed secretly.

As soon as Zhou Quan received the ball, he immediately knocked away Stockton in front of him, rushed past and then accelerated forward, holding the ball towards the basket.

According to the scheduled plan, Barkley and Postman Malone ignored their own men and rushed to the free throw line to establish a defensive line, which formed a closing trend against Zhou Quan who came over.

Their purpose was to force Zhou Quan to pass the ball to Jordan and the others, without giving Zhou Quan a chance to attack.

Larry Johnson and Pippen were completely empty and in very good positions. At this time, they reached the basket from both wings and reached out to Zhou Quan for the ball.

At the top of the arc, Zhou Quan suddenly stopped, ignored the two people asking him for the ball, and stepped back to shoot a jump shot.

It was too late for Buckley and the postman to pounce, so they could only defend with their eyes.

The glider just one step away had no intention of coming to help defend, and allowed Zhou Quan to take action.

Jordan's hands were a little itchy and he wanted to rush over and slap Zhou Quan.

"brush!"

The water splashed and he hit a three-pointer.

"Hey, Flying Man, I feel good today, what do you think?" After winning, Zhou Quan spat trash talk at Jordan, who was just around the corner.

Jordan's teeth are a little itchy. It's a pity that he is not in the Western Conference All-Star Team today, otherwise he would have slapped this bastard with a big shot just now.

Pat Riley sat on the bench and watched the show. Of course he saw the secret battle between Zhou Quan and Jordan, but it had nothing to do with him. It was just an All-Star. He could play it however he wanted.

Attack again from the west.

Stockton held the ball across the center line. This time, his attitude was more cautious. Even if Zhou Quan in front was two meters away from him, he did not dare to be careless at all.

He tried to push towards the top of the arc, but Zhou Quan did not take a step back and immediately pressed forward. This made him understand that Zhou Quan did not intend to let him get close to the top of the arc, and on the Postman's side, Larry Johnson took a step forward, and he did not

It was a long-distance pass, so I immediately raised my hand and blocked the postman's pick-and-roll at the midline.

Zhou Quan knew very well that he couldn't let Stockton get close to the top of the arc, or he didn't want the opponent to get close to the Postman, because the Postman was facing Larry Johnson, a dwarf. As long as the ball was given to the Postman, the Postman would hit the dwarf in isolation.

There will be dislocation advantages.

So if he controls Stockton far away from the three-point line, Stockton will have concerns about passing the ball to the postman, because the passing distance is too far and it is easy to intercept the ball. This is why he is so far away.

Location is the reason for strengthening defense.

At this time, the postman came from the left wing to Zhou Quan's right side. His weight, physique, and strength were the best wall. He couldn't squeeze through, and he was too slow to get around. If the defense was switched, he would be misplaced to play the point guard in isolation. The advantage would be too much.

Big.

At the same time, he is good at mid-range shooting and is the best player in pick-and-roll tactics. He works well with Stockton.

At this time, Stockton went around the postman and was about to rush between the postman and Larry Johnson. But at this moment, Zhou Quan turned around the postman very quickly and stood in front of him again.

With a big hand, he knocked his ball away.

The next moment, the four people fought together, and among them Zhou Quan, who was stabbing the ball, was the most prepared and took the initiative.
