At this moment, David Stern only had this idea. His hand grabbed the phone receiver next to him. Now he was going to inform that the CEO meeting would be held tomorrow.
"Old K is back!"
At this moment, everyone in the NBA league who saw this scene had only this thought.
"Old Liu, have you seen it? Is he useless? Is he useless? He is still Old K, the most powerful and greatest basketball superstar in the world, and he is still the unstoppable beast."
At the K Times Sports Center on Fengshen Street, pointing at the huge TV screen in the sports plaza, Lao Chen shouted excitedly to Lao Liu next to him.
At this time, Fengshen Street was boiling like an erupting volcano, and countless fans were cheering.
Lao Liu, whose scalp was numb, could not actually hear Lao Chen's voice at all. Even if Lao Chen was roaring in his ears, his face was full of shock and he murmured: "He is really still him."
At this time on CCTV, Sports Minister Lin Shengming was looking at the TV in a daze.
Suddenly he took a deep breath and reached for the phone on his desk. He was going to notify him now and discuss with the NBA the live broadcast plan for the new season. If the NBA couldn't get through, he could only ask for instructions from above.
, apply to add some live broadcasts to other channels.
It is troublesome to increase the number of live broadcasts. The sports department not only has basketball and NBA, but also has many projects, which are already full. If you want to increase the number of live broadcasts, you can only use other CCTV channels, such as the four channels.
He understands one thing: if he does not increase the number of games played by the Suns, not only will he be scolded by the fans, but his superiors will not agree.
…
In the Key Arena, Lao Wang stood under the basket, with Drobiak howling in pain at his feet. Behind the baseline were reporters frantically clicking their shutters. Countless fans in the auditorium seemed to be imprisoned. There was a lot of excitement in the arena.
Silence, only the cheers of the Suns.
"Team doctor!"
The referee squatted next to Drobiak and looked at it, and then a sharp voice sounded.
Surrounded by Nash and others, Lao Wang came to the media box behind the baseline, found the live footage of TNT, smiled at the camera, and then said softly: "Hey, NBA, I'm back."
"Old K is back! He is back! No matter how serious the injury is, it can't stop him from coming back. He has made a strong comeback!" Barkley roared excitedly in the TNT commentary box.
"Congratulations, old K, you are back!"
"Congratulations Tie Jun, you are back!"
In the CCTV commentary box, Zhang Lili and Su Qun shouted excitedly, their eyes were red,
"Welcome back the Sun King!"
At this moment, the entire Phoenix and countless Phoenix people are cheering together.
"Here he comes again!"
At this moment, NBA players and management who are interested in winning the championship are trembling in their hearts.
"Old K, you can't even think of hitting 50+ on us!" From behind, Payton yelled angrily at Lao Wang.
Lao Wang turned around and walked back to the backcourt. When he passed by Payton, he said lightly:
"Glove, there is no K Law tonight, how many inside teammates are you going to let fall at my feet?"
He has absolute confidence that he will kill anyone who dares to stop him tonight.
Although the current tonnage is only 130 kilograms, and although his strength is only level 96, with up to 10% of the strength bonus of Tieshan's relying on fighting, his relying on fighting strength is still close to level 100. Before the K Law was introduced, he was nothing more than this
Tonnage and strength, so now he can still rely on this tonnage and strength to sweep all the league insiders except O'Neal.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】
Moreover, his explosive power has now reached level 90, which is much stronger than before the introduction of the K Law. Perhaps, his current fighting strength may even exceed 135 kilograms. When his strength reaches level 98, it may be higher than before the injury.
At least it's not bad, but he hasn't hit it with all his strength yet, and I don't know if he has exceeded it.
If you want to know whether it is better than before, there is only one person qualified to be the target of the experiment, and that is Shaquille O'Neal.
"What?"
Payton felt his eyes go dark. What the hell does this guy want to do?
"Ah owe! Ah owe! Ah owe..."
Far away in Los Angeles, O'Neal sneezed six times in a row, spraying food residue all over the floor, and his face was covered with snot and saliva. He clearly felt very hot just now, why did he feel so cold now?
At this time, the SuperSonics lifted the main center off. The team doctor had already examined him and found that he had three broken ribs and was immediately sent to the hospital.
"Jerome, come on."
Head coach McMillan called up backup center Jerome James from the bench.
"yes."
Hearing his name, James took a deep breath and stood up with courage.
His courage comes from the fact that he is a human shield with a weight of 136 kilograms and a height of 213 centimeters. He feels that he can block old K.
This is why newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. As a player who entered the league in 1998, he, like the one who was just taken away, has never seen the terrifying sideways attack of Old K. Legend has it that there is not enough deterrence for people like them.
force.
"Block him, this is your only task." McMillan still did not arrange for a double-team in advance, he hoped to use a human shield to block Old K.
The game continues with the SuperSonics attacking.
Payton easily knocked away Nash and broke through with the ball from the right wing. After attracting the defense of Suns veteran power forward Tom Gugliotta, he passed the ball to Rashard Lewis in the right corner. The latter made an open jumper and hit one.
Score three points.
"It's a lousy defense. It seems like it's hard for Old K to make a difference this season!" Barkley couldn't help complaining in the TNT commentary box.
"Haha, not counting old K, the Suns are a bad team, last in the Western Conference." Kenny Smith laughed.
Lao Wang came to the frontcourt, and instead of going to the basket, he went directly to the left wing to post in the low post. He estimated that it would be difficult for Nash to break through the defense of the glove, and it would be useless to get to the basket.
But this time Nash learned from experience. When advancing from the backcourt, he directly used his speed to get rid of Payton. He quickly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and handed the ball to Lao Wang.
Payton is not as fast as him, and he is 34 years old. He has a clear speed advantage when it comes to gloves.
Lao Wang caught the ball and heard the deep breathing of the defender around him. In the next moment, he stepped forward and Tieshan suddenly exploded.
"Peng!"
The first hit was by hitting, not with full force, but the center of gravity of the human shield was shaken.
"Peng!"
The next moment, the second shot broke out with all his strength.
"Well!"
The human shield fell down in response, and with a bang, its back hit the floor.
"Bang!"
The next moment, Lao Wang once again flew over the defender, dunked with one arm, and smashed the Key Arena into silence.
"ah!"
The Suns were cheering again.
Barkley laughed loudly: "Look, look at how much success power Old K has recovered now? Sixty percent? Eighty percent? Or ten percent?"
"It's 80% certain, but it's only two goals. We have to continue to observe. But I can be sure that Old K's resistance ability is still the same as before. Whether it is a comminuted fracture of the left ankle joint or a broken left heel, it has no impact.
To his confrontation ability." Kenny Smith said seriously.
"Eighty percent? Well, even if it's 80%, who dares to say that Old K, who was 80% strong at his peak, can't do it?" Barkley asked.
Kenny Smith shook his head and said: "At least the SuperSonics have no right to say that Old K is bad. Look at power forward Rashard Lewis. He was just one step to the right of the basket. When Old K knocked down the defender and dunked, he didn't make any move to make up for it.
I mean, is he watching a show?
The defense is like rubbish. With this kind of defense, let alone scoring 50+ points, I doubt that as long as he is willing to brush up the statistics, he can score 100 points in a single game."
"Haha, Kenny, you are really a roundworm in my stomach, that's exactly what I want to say." Barkley laughed.
"Go away! Who is this roundworm in your stomach? It's so disgusting!" Kenny Smith laughed and cursed.
"Ha ha……"
Buckley burst out laughing.
"brush!"
Looking back, Brent Barry used the pick-and-roll to get an open space and hit a three-pointer.
Zhang Lili immediately introduced: "Brent Barry is the son of old Barry. He entered the league in 1995 and his three-point shooting is very accurate. It has remained above 40% for many seasons, and even reached 47% in 2001.
The Suns need to be careful not to let him get too many open shots. If such a talented shooter is allowed to shoot smoothly, he can hit consecutive shots."
Su Qun also said: "SuperSonics have two three-pointers, now 4:6. Although Old K played very fiercely, the score is behind the Suns."
Next, the Suns attacked. Lao Wang did not ask for it and asked Nash to organize the offense.
However, due to Payton's strong defense, although Nash quickly advanced to the frontcourt, the Suns' offensive system had not yet been established. He could only hand the ball to Hardaway, who could attack with the ball.
When Brent Barry first entered the league, he didn't pay much attention to defense like his father. But after many seasons, he is better now, but his defense is also average, his lateral movement is slow, one-on-one defense is average, and his steals are a little bit weak.
Hardaway faked a shot from the three-point line on the right wing and got rid of Barry. He took a step inside the three-point line and made an emergency stop jumper.
"Bang!"
The first time I shot, my hand was cold and I missed.
Lao Wang had already rushed to the basket, and he was standing next to the meat shield James. The two jumped at the same time to grab the rebound, but he jumped faster and higher and grabbed the offensive rebound.
"Peng!"
The next moment, an iron mountain hit erupted, and James fell down in response.
Lao Wang stood proudly under the basket, looking across at Rashard Lewis who was one step away.
Lewis was startled by the ferocious look, and unconsciously took a step back.
"Bang!"
Lao Wang then took off and dunked hard with both hands, sinking the SuperSonics basket by a foot.
"ah!"
Barkley roared excitedly, banged his fist on the table, and shouted loudly: "Did you see it, all the kids who have just entered the league a few years ago, this is the restricted area sweeper, and he is back!
I know that the alliance will restart K Law soon, it will definitely happen, maybe tomorrow, the alliance will announce the restart of K Law."
"Oh...oh..."
James was lying under the basket, panting violently, feeling a strong smell of blood between his mouth and nose, and a kind of fear was rising in his heart.
He had just been replaced on the field, and the courage and confidence in his heart were already melting quickly like the ice and snow under the scorching sun in June.
Not far away, Lewis' face was pale. He couldn't imagine what would happen if he was hit by Old K. Now, he didn't want to get close to Old K at all. He just wanted to stay as far away from that giant beast as possible, so as to defend himself.
!
"He's really back!"
At this moment, the entire league and countless media around the world have understood that the beast that dominated the 1990s and won 6 championships in 9 years is really back. Terror strikes again and they have to face it again.
To that terrifying behemoth.
Three times he relied on the iron mountain, one time he knocked the defender away and broke his ribs, and twice he knocked down the human shield center. That kind of intense confrontation is simply not an ability that a player who has returned from a serious injury can possess. Old K,
Really back!
Lao Wang's three attacks were like three fierce slaps in the face, hitting the face of the entire league and all the media who looked down on him, letting them understand that he is still him.
In the next game, he became an unstoppable beast.
"Bang!"
The SuperSonics attacked, and Lewis made another three-pointer, but missed.
Lao Wang protected the rebound. At this time, Nash came down quickly. He immediately passed the ball. The latter caught the ball and made a layup. He hit a goal, 8:6, and the Suns took the lead.
"Bang!"
Payton took the shot himself, and when Nash's defense could be ignored, he missed the shot.
Lao Wang protected the backcourt rebound. At this time, Nash was entangled by Payton. The fast break failed and it turned into a positional battle.
"drop!"
This time, Lao Wang caught the ball and attacked under the basket, but was sent to the free throw line by James, the human shield.
Standing on the free throw line, as before, dribble the ball six times, take a deep breath, then grab the ball with one hand, move your wrist forward powerfully, and hook the ball toward the basket.
"Oh, hook free throw?"
Buckley's eyes widened, and so did many people's eyes.
"brush!"
The basketball goes hollow into the basket.
Lao Wang smiled. This was the free throw ability he developed after his mid-range offense reached level 90. Hook free throws are much more accurate than his two-handed free throws. It can reach 80% or even 85%. In the past, it was only six at most.
As a result, the hit rate increased by about 20%.
Anyone who wants to chop him now will be punished to death.
"Punishment!"
The second free throw was made again, and it was another hollow ball.
Buckley said in surprise: "Old K didn't tell me that he still has this skill? Oh, God, is this an ability he just developed?"
Kenny Smith said: "Like Chamberlain, he shoots free throws with one hand, but he uses a hook, and Chamberlain does not."
"Can Chamberlain's hook shot be compared with that of Old K? In the history of the league, the sky hook can be compared with that of Old K's hook." Barkley said with a smile.
In the 7th minute of the first quarter, under the full force of Wang Tiejun, the human shield James fell at his feet for the fourth time. This time, he could not get up again, or he no longer wanted to get up.
In the tenth minute of the first quarter, Lao Wang was substituted. At this time, he had made 10 of 10 shots and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 25 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 foul in a single quarter.
Barkley couldn't help complaining: "The SuperSonics' interior defense is terrible. Old K attacks the basket all the time. They all attack at the basket and fail to defend even a close attack. Kenny, do you think Old K can score 50 points tonight?"
+?"
"cannot."
Kenny Smith immediately shook his head.
"What?"
Buckley's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide with a shocked expression, looking at Kenny Smith like a fool.
Kenny Smith laughed: "Now in the tenth minute of the first quarter, the score is 33:20, the Suns have led by 13 points, and the SuperSonics are lagging behind in rebounds, number of shots, defense, shooting percentage, secondary offense, etc.
If the game continues like this, it will probably enter garbage time before halftime. I think with Old K’s personality, he would disdain to play again, so I think he may not be able to score 50+ today.”
Barkley laughed and said: "I think even if it enters garbage time, Old K should play the full half of the game. He should respect his opponent."
When the two said this, they immediately burst into laughter.
Lao Wang sat back on the bench, and Stoudemire, who was about to come on as a substitute, first brought water and towels. After faithfully performing his younger brother's work, he came on the stage himself.
He wiped his sweat, drank a glass of water, and began to observe the performance of his younger brothers.
In the game just now, he attacked the basket the whole time, not to mention the mid-range and close range attacks. He relied on continuous attacks, which consumed a lot of money.
But to have a beautiful comeback, this is necessary. He has to force the league to restart K Law, the sooner the better.
Otherwise, his ability will not be shown.
In his comeback game, the league did not even give him a home court, which really angered him.
"brush!"
"brush!"
However, the teammates on the field were not very good and their defense was poor. In the next two minutes, Brent Barry actually threw two three-pointers in succession. The score difference narrowed. After the first quarter, 35:28, the Suns only
