Chapter 573 I want everyone to know that I am still me!
At this time, the visiting team came on the scene. As the home team of the Suns, Supersonics fans immediately booed, but when Wang came on the stage in the finale, there was a burst of cheers and applause in the arena.
"Kachakacha..."
All the reporters rushed to the scene and clicked their shutters frantically.
"Old K, Barkley said you wanted to score 50+ points here. I bet you were bragging. You can't do it anymore. You're useless!" a local reporter yelled.
"Old K, you shouldn't have come back. If you don't come back, you will still be a legend with six championships in nine years. If you come back, you will become a stepping stone for newcomers. It's not too late for you to announce your retirement again." Another reporter shouted loudly.
Turning a deaf ear, Lao Wang walked slowly towards the court and kept high-fiving his teammates. While he was looking at the Key Arena of Nottingham University, he also felt a strong desire to conquer.
He announced his comeback a few months in advance, but the league actually didn't arrange a home court for his first game back. To be honest, he had some objections to the league, very big ones.
Both Hawksman and Zhang Lili analyzed it for him. He is not an American and has not even received a green card. Now his achievements have actually become a thorn in the side of some Americans and the American media.
Within the league, because of the efforts to promote the four major shooting guards, he has become a thing of the past. Even if he still has a certain strength after his comeback, the league will make him a thing of the past, because God lives in history and legend.
of.
Hawksman told him very bluntly and clearly that the league would not allow him to lead the Suns into a dynasty, let alone dominate another era.
From the Suns' national live broadcast to the first away game of his comeback, to the league officials until now, there has been no movement on his comeback. It seems that there is no such thing. This is an obvious cold treatment. Everything is stimulating.
Hold him.
Since his accidental injury last year, he needed a chance to vent.
"I want everyone to know that I am still me!"
At the Key Arena, Barkley's words were already known by two on-site commentators. At this time, one on-site commentator shouted loudly: "Old K is on the stage. SuperSonics fans, do you know what he just said? He is going to
Do you allow us to score 50+ points in this arena over our heads?"
"Shh!"
The SuperSonics' home court reacted instantly, and the cheers and applause given to Wang immediately turned into huge boos.
In the CCTV commentary box, Zhang Lili sighed: "SuperSonics fans just welcomed Tie Jun because Tie Jun is the first man in history who is no longer at his peak, because this first man in history can no longer pose a threat to the SuperSonics, and
The SuperSonics can also put a punch on the head of the first man in history tonight in his comeback game.
But they will never welcome the first player in history who wants to hit 50 points on their head, which is why they are booing the Iron Army now."
"I really hope Lao K can hit 50+ tonight!" Su Qun said with great anticipation.
The two looked at each other and both laughed. They often watched Lao Wang's training in China, and they were very clear about Lao Wang's current state. Even if Wang Tiejun was not as scary as before, he was still very strong. As for how strong he was.
, which cannot be known only from some training states.

Zhang Lili said with a smile: "In the past, when the Tiejun wanted to score 50 points against the SuperSonics, it was as easy as cutting vegetables and melons. I hope it can be done tonight."
…
In the capital, Fengshen Street and K-Times Sports Center, countless fans have been gathering from all over the capital since dawn.
CCTV sent a camera team. Seeing this scene, Chen, the team leader of the Sports Department in charge of NBA affairs, shouted excitedly:
"Old Liu, look, what I said is right. This is the influence of Old K. So what if he retires for a year? So what if he is seriously injured? He is still the greatest basketball player in our country, and he is still the best basketball player in our country.
Great athlete."
Lao Liu is also a team leader in charge of NBA affairs in the Sports Department, but he still insisted on his opinion and said: "I also said, this is just the beginning. As the feelings are exhausted, more and more people will leave. Let's be realistic.
, Old K is a thing of the past, fans will miss him, but his influence will inevitably continue to decline."
"I won't talk to you anymore." Lao Chen said angrily.
At this moment, countless people were gathering at the open-air stadium of the May 7th Brigade, and the stadium at Nottingham University was soon filled up.
The rural basketball league of the May 7th Brigade has now grown to a very large scale, with teams from several surrounding cities and counties participating. It has also been favored by the HEB Provincial TV Station, which is often broadcast in real time, and has even been broadcast by some in the province.
Favored by advertisers.
Xiao Jiu'er has grown up, and her IQ is about the same as that of Brother Wang who plays NBA next door. He didn't go to college, but he is sharp-tongued and eloquent. Now he has become the official on-site commentator of the No. 57 Basketball League, and she has also become an HEB provincial
A slightly famous basketball commentator.
Key Arena, it’s almost 8:30, and the game is about to start.
In front of the Suns bench, Lao Wang stood in the middle, surrounded by all his teammates. After he raised his right hand, everyone put their hands on it.
"victory!"
As his roar sounded, all Suns players, coaching staff, and staff roared loudly.
"Shh!"
The huge boos, like a fierce flood, instantly drowned out the voices of more than 20 people from the Suns team.
Waving his hand, Lao Wang walked onto the court with his four starting teammates.
At the other end, Payton, who was standing on the sidelines with his chin raised, glanced at Old Wang sideways and snorted in his heart: "I couldn't beat the old K before, so can I not beat the old K now?"
In the center circle, Lao Wang and the Supersonics center stood opposite each other.
His opponent tonight, Drobiak, is a European from Montenegro. He was a second pick in 1997. He is 211 centimeters tall and 130 kilograms. His strength is low. He can start in the SuperSonics because the SuperSonics are at the fifth position.
There is really no one available, and the league will always be in short supply of good centers.
He didn't have the habit of bullying juniors, he just glanced at the other person.
Drobiak's eyes shrank. At this glance, he actually felt murderous intent, a bit piercing.
Facing the first person in history, even the half-dead first person in history, with his strength and status, he did not dare to make any provocative behavior. Old K glanced at him, and he smiled back, with a stiff face.
I twitched a bit, not sure if I was crying or laughing.
"drop!"
As the whistle blew, an orange-red basketball was thrown into the sky by the referee.
At this moment, at the scene, in front of the TV, and around the world, countless people were staring at Lao Wang jumping the ball to see how high he could jump.
People who like him hope he can still jump as high as before; people who hate him hope he can't jump.
Jordan, Kobe, Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Carter, Barkley, Zhang Lili, David Stern, Colangelo Jr., etc. At this moment, all eyes were focused on Lao Wang.
The next moment, when the basketball fell from the highest point, a huge figure soared into the air at high speed and pushed the ball away with his big hands.
"oh!"
The exclamations suddenly rose up, like rolling thunder.
"How high did he jump? I think it was at least seventy or eighty centimeters."
"Oh, didn't old K stop following him? Doesn't this look like a person who stopped following him? Has he stopped following him?"
"God, I feel like he jumps faster than before, and his bounce is faster! He didn't break his heels, he had an operation to install springs."
Suddenly, countless fans started talking in the audience, and the buzzing sound could not be heard.
"How is that possible?"
When Jordan saw Old K take off, his eyes widened instantly.
It is clear that old K is jumping faster than before. This is completely unscientific and goes against common sense. How can it be possible for people who have stopped following me to jump faster than before?
"Old K, you jumped faster?"
Kobe couldn't believe his eyes. He was too familiar with Old K. He definitely didn't jump so fast in the past. Could it be that if he broke off once, he could jump faster? Then he would try it in the future.
"It's over, it's over!"
O'Neal was dumbfounded when he saw it. Does this look like a person who has broken off with him? This is the astronaut who got on the rocket!
"God bless, if old K jumps like this a few more times, maybe the heel will break again."
Garnett stood up again, staring at the TV, feeling confused and instinctively crossing himself on his chest.
When David Stern saw this scene, he sighed secretly in his heart. An unpleasant feeling emerged from the bottom of his heart. He knew that he might be in trouble.
It is impossible for a person who has broken heeling to jump like Old K. What does it mean that Old K can jump like this? It means that his physique is superhuman. His recovery is not good, but very good, so good that he can surpass his previous athletic quality.
.
"Forget it, let it be. I can't control how the media treats him. Whether the four shooting guards can beat him depends on their own abilities."
At this time, he had this idea as a last resort.
There is really nothing he can do. If old K can really regain his previous strength, no, even if he is only 70% to 80% strength, he will be able to stir up trouble in the alliance.
He can indeed prevent the Suns from continuing to trade superstars to join the team, but that's it. He can't prevent ordinary transactions. Just like the last transaction of Nash, he couldn't prevent it. Otherwise, there would be no fairness and balance at all.
.
But according to Old K's previous strength, he doesn't need those superstars at all. As long as he has a few teammates who average 10+ per game, it will be enough to make a big difference. With a few good substitutes, he can form a good rotation of eight or nine people.
, what the fight will be like, he doesn't want to think about it anymore now.
In the Key Arena, Lao Wang came to the frontcourt and ran directly to the basket. He was blocked by Drobiak and immediately went around flexibly and entered the basket.
Nowadays, zone defense is allowed, and players without the ball can be double-teamed in advance. However, the SuperSonics did not arrange a double-team tactic for Lao Wang in advance. Head coach Nate McMillan, like the general media, believes that Lao K is dead and will no longer do so.
need.
Just after the jump ball, Old K showed outstanding jumping ability, which only surprised him, but it was not enough for him to immediately change his defensive tactics.
If K is double-teamed in advance, the Suns will definitely get an open position. Nash's passing ability is very good, so he will not easily arrange a double-team in advance. The current K is not worth it.
Nash advanced to the right wing, and Payton was tightly entangled. Facing Payton, the most defensively powerful among point guards in the league, he had some difficulties.
Glove Payton has won DPOY once, has been selected to the defensive first team 9 times, once won the steals, and was at the No. 1 position. In the history of the league, his defensive ability ranks first in the league.
Moreover, Old K said harsh words to him today, so now he is also defending with all his strength, and has reached the defensive intensity of the playoffs. He wants to strangle the Suns' offense from the source, so that Old K can only watch him die inside.
Nash.
Nash was hard-pressed by Payton's suffocating defense, and the Suns' offensive organization was hampered.
When D'Antoni saw this scene on the sidelines, he sighed to himself: "It seems that we really need to pay attention to defense."
Under the basket, Lao Wang couldn't help but couldn't score the ball. Three seconds were approaching and he had to leave the paint area immediately.
He saw that Nash was making a large-scale transfer, moving from the right wing to the top of the arc, so he ran low to the left wing.
"ball."
As soon as he came out of the paint, he pushed his left elbow into Drobiak who was following him and yelled at Nash.
Nash heard the sound, suddenly stopped and started, and used the little time to get away from Payton to pass the ball.
"Crack!"
Lao Wang caught the ball with his right hand.
The jump ball just now, without confrontation, cannot really prove his condition, but now, the first time he touches the ball after returning, you can really see his condition.
At this moment, countless people from David Stern to Jordan to Kobe Bryant stared at Lao Wang with their eyes wide open.
The next moment, Wang Tiejun was facing upward, leaning sideways and fighting.
While dribbling, he moved his left foot inward. When he followed up with his right foot, he stepped down with both feet. The six forces merged into one. His left shoulder and back instantly hit Drobiak's chest, and a huge force exploded instantly.
.
"Hit sideways!?"
At this moment, countless people's eyes shrank.
"..."
This action was particularly memorable for Jordan. He instantly thought of the tragic scene in those years when the Bulls' interior players suffered fractures due to the sideways blow from Old K.
"Peng!"
With a heavy impact and a painful groan, the 130-kilogram Drobiak flew backwards.
When he entered the league, because K's Law had been introduced, the terrifying side-to-side fighting of old K had been banned. Only the legend of side-to-side fighting was left in the world, and he had no chance to taste it, so he was not mentally prepared.
Now, he knew what Lao K's sideways attack was, but it was too late.
"Peng!"
His 130-kilogram body hit the floor, and he immediately clutched his left chest and screamed in pain.
"Bang!"
The next moment, a huge figure flew over him, covering the sky above, and the violent sound of exploding baskets sounded above his head.
"ah!"
All the players, coaching staff, and staff of the Suns, including Colangelo Jr., all cheered and were extremely excited.
"Oh ho ho ho..."
Stoudemire was so excited that he waved his white towel and jumped up and down in front of the bench.
"ah!"
At the same moment, countless cheers rang out throughout Phoenix, even the entire state of Arizona, and across the Pacific in China, the K Times Sports Center on Fengshen Street in the capital, and the open-air stadium of the No. 7 Team.
"..."
Jordan's eyes widened, and now he only had one thought, old K is still old K, he is still him.
Now, he has completely lost his intention to come back. Why come back? Will he be targeted by the damn old K for abuse? Go to the damn ball market! I am almost forty years old, come back is a piece of shit!
"Still so strong?"
Portland, seeing this scene, Duncan's eyes suddenly widened.
After Old K retired in 2001, he lost weight because he no longer needed such a large tonnage. In addition, he was injured in 2000 and became a floor-sitter, unable to support such a large tonnage.
Now his tonnage is 120 kilograms. He originally wanted to reduce it by two kilograms and keep it at 118 kilograms and 260 pounds. But now, he can't make up his mind at the moment.
"God, am I decreasing or increasing now?"
Old K can knock defenders away, and his confrontational ability has not deteriorated due to serious injuries. Now his tonnage cannot handle such an intense confrontation, and he will be knocked away.
"It's over, it's really over, old K, old K, since you have me, why do you still have you?"
O'Neal was completely dumbfounded. How could such an old K come back from a serious injury? Instead, he was rebuilt and brand new from the factory!
"By the way, damn it, there is no K-Law now, no K-Law..."
He suddenly became excited, ran into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out some food, crazily stuffed it into his mouth, and kept mumbling: "I want to gain weight, I can't lose any more, I want to increase my dominance, I want to
Use the tonnage and strength to crush him to death. He can’t hit me. I will use fat to reduce the friction..."
Garnett stood up from the sofa for the third time. A large amount of cold sweat had gathered on his forehead, his face was panicked, and his heartbeat was beating like a drum.
The old K who was crippled still had his remaining power, so he only dared to say that he would not allow Old K to get arrogant on him. He did not dare to say that he wanted to rub off against Old K like O'Neal did. Now that Old K was obviously not crippled, he immediately panicked.
.
"Law K, Law K, damn alliance, why cancel Law K?"
Thinking of this, he became more and more panicked, wishing that the alliance would restart Law K now.
Although he is a power forward, he often has to face the center when switching defenses, and he may also have to double-team Old K. Now that he has offended Old K, won't Old K take it out on him?
