Lao Wang still caught the ball in the low post on the left wing, suddenly stepped back and hooked, and hit a goal.
Now he is no better than when he was young. In the regular season, he has to hold back, especially when facing O'Neal. If he can solve the battle with a mid-range shot, he will use a mid-range shot.
This is the last year of the fixed period. Starting from next season, the peak state will start to decline by 2% every year, but this is in a healthy state. If he is injured, or even seriously injured, that is another matter.
, so the regular season needs to be closed.
Heat offense.
Xiao Fan shouted from the sidelines: "Three-two defense."
Josh Howard didn't dare to let go this time and defended closely, but Wade immediately dribbled the ball and took a step back, and then immediately changed direction to break through. He was still easily beaten.
Zhu Fangyu in the middle immediately retreated downwards, blocking Wade who entered the paint area from the right elbow area.
Wade stopped for a jump shot, and then Wang jumped from the basket.
"Snapped!"
He stretched out his right arm and grabbed the ball with his big hand, just in time to grab the ball from the air.
"Beautiful! Old K caught Wade, he taught this kid a lesson!" an on-site commentator shouted excitedly.
The ball was confiscated, Wade jumped in front of Lao Wang and had to retreat back.
Lao Wang passed the ball to White Chocolate and ran forward. When he passed by Wade, he said to him: "Fang Fang, although you don't ask, I still have to tell you that it feels good to catch you."
"Old K, don't call that damn Fang Fang!" Wade said angrily.
"Now I think your face is a bit round, no, it's a bit swollen, just like a steamed bun. Why don't I call you steamed bun?" Lao Wang joked.
"..."
What the hell is Baozi? It’s another inexplicable nickname. Wade is furious.
On the right wing three-point line, Josh Howard asked for the ball, but was blocked by Wade twice. He wanted to return the ball.
White Chocolate passed the ball and Howard caught the ball and singled out Wade.
The two were drafted in the same year, but their rankings are very different, and their abilities are also the same.
When Howard was dribbling and relying on the ball, Wade caught his rhythm and suddenly reached out to poke the ball. After succeeding, he quickly squeezed up and squeezed away from him with his strong body. After grabbing the ball, he immediately launched a counterattack.
"boom!"
No one could catch up with the Flash's counterattack after stealing the ball on the outside. After crossing the free throw line, he hit a flying dunk.
4:4, tied, the Suns attack.
"boom!"
Lao Wang caught the ball on the left wing, attracted a double-team from Eddie Jones, and passed the ball to Zhu Fangyu, who shot a three-pointer from a small space, but missed.
O'Neal grabbed the rebound and the Heat attacked.
O'Neal came to the frontcourt and moved directly to the basket. With his strong tonnage advantage, he forced Lao Wang to move forward to defend, but the former immediately took a step up and forced Lao Wang away.
"boom!"
At this time, Damon Jones passed the ball, O'Neal put his left elbow on Pharaoh, caught the ball with his right hand, and then turned around and hit a dunk.
"Today's Sharks, as long as they catch the ball under the basket, the ball will basically go in, and even old K can't handle it," Oldman said.
"I think Old K just didn't defend with all his strength. In the last playoffs, O'Neal's tonnage should have been this big. Whether Old K went around or stayed close, the effect was good," said Winston Rollin.
Oldman analyzed: "It is also possible that after scoring 101 points on the Knicks, Old K began to stop playing, and his playing time and offense at the basket were reduced a lot.
I think this is right. After all, he is getting older. If an average player is seriously injured, he is already considering retirement at this age. His recovery speed after physical exertion is definitely not as fast as before. He must do a good job in physical fitness.
distribute."
A minute later, O'Neal made a comeback and once again tried to beat Lao Wang under the basket, but this time, Lao Wang did not hold back.
After going around, O'Neal took a step forward, trying to push him aside again. He immediately used a flexible turning movement to remove O'Neal's power.
The ball arrived at this time, and O'Neal tried to push him away, but there was no chance. The two jumped at the same time, but Lao Wang was in front and successfully intercepted the ball.
O'Neal later tried to get the ball under the basket, but was unable to deal with Lao Wang's forward defense and was repeatedly intercepted.
The outcome of the regular season was not important for the Eastern Conference teams, but Wang did not want to lose to O'Neal at home, so he deliberately increased his playing time to only two minutes per quarter.
In the 6th minute of the final quarter, the Heat attacked.
At this time, Lao Wang's personal statistics for this game appeared on the hanging screen, which were 31 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 6 blocks, 1 turnover and 3 fouls.
All Suns fans are eagerly anticipating an opportunity. With just one steal, their Suns King K can hit the first 5*5 figure in his career.
"The Heat should be careful, if Old K breaks another one, it will be 5*5!" Oldman reminded excitedly.
"Now the Suns are only leading by 1 point. Old K was not particularly excited on the offensive end tonight, but he played the best defense." Luo Lin said.
However, this opportunity never appeared. O'Neal's physical fitness was no longer good. By the end of the game, the offense was almost gone.
Until the 11th minute of the final quarter, with 43 seconds left, the Suns led by 2 points.
At this time, Fan called the last timeout and asked O'Neal to play. He needed a high-quality low attack to equalize the score.
"Shaq, you haven't played in a few minutes, and now I need your low post offense."
"Dwayne, you rush in, score breakthrough points, attract old K, and then give it to Shaq."
The timeout ends and the game begins.
Although O'Neal made several attacks under the basket today, he has been intercepted four times and wasted a lot of ball rights. Now at the last moment, he has no physical fitness. He has long given up trying to gain position under the basket, and
He was looking for the ball in the low post on the left wing.
At this time, Wade began to break through with the ball on the right wing.
Rushing to the right, with a continuous European step that drastically changed direction, he followed the baseline and entered the paint area.
Lao Wang defended to the right side of the basket and blocked Wade.
He has so much experience in dealing with this kind of internal and external dual-core break-up tactics that he doesn't even think twice about it in the league.
From the Qiaosha combination to the OK combination, he has accumulated too much experience. Now facing the WO combination, although Wade is different from Jordan and Kobe, the basic content of the internal and external core breakthrough tactics will not change, it is nothing more than the outside
The core uses his powerful breakthrough ability and personal finishing ability to attract the defense, and then distributes the ball to the inside core.
At this moment, he not only had to guard against Wade's finishing, but also guarded against Wade's passing ball. O'Neal was behind him.
Waiting for Wade's pass under the basket.
Today he has sent out six big shots, including three for O'Neal and three for Wade. Wade was no longer afraid to break in at the end of the quarter, and this time he broke in again, so he guessed that Wade would probably have to.
Pass the ball.
There aren't many specific reasons, it's just a feeling, a mysterious sixth sense.
The next moment, Wade, who came in from behind the baseline, suddenly turned his foot, took a European step, changed direction upwards, pulled up one step and immediately connected the ball, then jumped up, threw himself in the air, and made a throw.
Lao Wang quickly took a step upward, leaned forward to jump, raised his right hand diagonally, and jerked his body upward, making a sideways jump to block the shot.
The next moment, Wade, who had thrown himself into the air, suddenly collected the ball, passed it down, and the ball flew to O'Neal under the basket.
"Oops!"
But the moment the ball was released, he knew he had been fooled, because Old K didn't actually take off.
His judgment was that Old K jumped up to block him, and he passed the ball downwards, which happened to pass through the defensive gap under Old K's right rib, but Old K did not jump up, so what about this downward pass?
"Snapped!"
Lao Wang stretched out his right hand and almost passed the ball hand to hand. He steadily caught Wade's pass and completed his fifth steal today.
"Baozi, thank you for the pass!"
"..." Wade was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Oh ho!"
The American West Arena suddenly cheered and began to celebrate the Sun King's first career 5*5 data.
In the end, the Suns won the game 92:102.
Lao Wang played ten minutes more than the previous games, playing a total of 40 minutes, scoring 44 points, shooting 57%, and also had 16 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals and 6 blocks.
5 steals, all of which were passes to O'Neal, 6 blocks, 3 to O'Neal, and 3 to Wade.
O'Neal scored 21 points, shooting 46% from the field, and Wade scored 28 points, shooting 44.4% from the field. Together they scored 49 points, but they failed to take away a victory from Phoenix.
On the 2nd, the Suns left Phoenix and headed to the East. The first stop was the Magic.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, I had just settled in the hotel when I received a message.
"Old K, I heard that the Wizards just announced that Jordan was relieved of his position as general manager and a new general manager was appointed," Colangelo Jr. said.
"Why, he wants to sell his shares?" Lao Wang was a little surprised. Jordan finally got 5% of the Wizards' shares, so he gave up so easily?
Colangelo Jr. laughed and said: "The relationship between the Wizards boss and him is very tense."
Lao Wang remembered that it seemed that two years ago, Jordan rejected the Wizards boss's request to come back to boost the market, and now they should part ways.
"It won't be long before he sells his shares in the Wizards," he said.
"Probably, there are media reports that he has contacts with the Bobcats' big boss." Colangelo Jr. said.
On December 13, the Suns had 15 wins and 5 losses, and their record was surpassed by the Trail Blazers again.
On the 14th, the Suns arrived in Orlando and will challenge the Magic on the 15th.
Night of the 15th, Orlando Arena.
Lao Wang saw the No. 1 pick in 2004, a happy boy with tons of talent.
If there are any surprises in the new season, in addition to the Knicks' running and gunning, and the 1+1 greater than 2 effect of the combination of O'Neal and Wade, there is another one. It is this man who smiles all day long and is said to be able to touch rebounds like Garnett.
Upper edge high school boy.
"Old K, I heard that you have a primary school education, I am a high school student, and my education is higher than yours."
In the players tunnel, a happy Howard jumped up to Lao Wang and said something that made Lao Wang face black.
"I have a technical secondary school degree, which is the same as a high school degree in the United States, you stupid rookie!" He cursed angrily.
Howard was startled, but insisted: "But the information you have on the official website only has a primary school education."
"Get out!"
Too lazy to explain anything to a rookie, Lao Wang pushed Howard away and decided to teach this damn rookie a lesson today.
To deal with this kind of rookie who has explosive jumping ability but lacks strength in the lower body, there are many tricks to defeat him, such as bumping him first, taking advantage of his unstable center of gravity to dunk him, or using fake moves to shake him and then
Take a shot. If the rookie moves forward to guard him, go directly to the basket and use your strength to push him away to gain space, etc.
As for the defensive end, he has some familiarity with this high school No. 1 overall pick. He is an offensive idiot who can basically only play second offense. If he can't defend this rookie, he should just retire.
Two hours later, Dwight Howard stood under the basket with a blank look on his face, staring at Lao Wang's back in a daze.
While he was blocked by Old K, Old K scored 56 points on his head. He was dunked 3 times, knocked over 5 times, had 5 big blocks, and had the ball stolen 2 times. He was blown away on both offense and defense.
His body was completely bruised and his confidence was shattered into pieces.
"I couldn't be happier tonight." He murmured.
On the 16th, the Suns came to Washington.
In the evening, Yi Jianlian picked up Lao Wang from the hotel and invited him to dinner.
This time he booked a table at a Chinese restaurant. When he arrived, the restaurant had already prepared a table of Cantonese dishes that athletes could eat.
"Brother, do these dishes taste good? If not, I'll try a few more." When the food was put on the table, Allen asked with a smile.
"Okay, I eat a lot of Cantonese food in the capital." Lao Wang nodded.
Allen smiled and said: "There are several Cantonese restaurants here. There were not any before. They were only there after I came here. When I found out, they moved here from New York. They were all immigrants from Hong Kong a few years ago."
Lao Wang said in surprise: "It's strange, why doesn't Phoenix have a restaurant specializing in Hebei cuisine?"
Allen smiled and said: "Brother, it seems that Hebei cuisine is not one of the eight major cuisines, right?"
"You have to have eight major cuisines to open a restaurant? Our Hebei cuisine is also pretty good. Jing BJ Tokyo South has several flavors. There are many specialized Hebei cuisine restaurants in the capital." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"By the way, has Jordan been going to the team recently?" he remembered and asked.
"I haven't seen him since I became the general manager. I used to see him every day." Allen shook his head.
On the 20th, the Knicks suffered serious injuries. Central shooting king Alan Houston once again suffered a serious knee injury, ruptured his cruciate ligament, and was announced to be out for the season.
This is not the first time Houston has suffered a serious knee injury. This is his fourth serious knee injury. Many media have even speculated that he is likely to retire as a result.
The main shooting guard was out for the season, and the Knicks moved backup shooting guard Quentin Richardson to the starting lineup. The main lineup was not weakened, but the substitute lineup was weakened.
That night, in the away game against the Grizzlies, Lao Wang completed the accumulation of personal historical data. In the 25th regular season game of this season, he scored the 30,000th point in his career.
In other words, it only took him 835 regular season games to score 30,000 points, making him the fastest player in league history to score 30,000 points.
This record earned him a reward of 3,000 points from the system, and he now has a total of 3,600 points on hand.
"By the way, the system and my basketball skill level information are gone, what use are these points for?" he asked in his mind.
The system prompts: "The host can start a new profession, or serve the second or third profession."
"Then forget it."
He muttered, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he quickly asked: "If I save enough 50,000 points, can I still redeem them and then set up a card?"
"Yes, but the second time you use the card, there will be some side effects."
"Side effects? What side effects?"
"There is no data available for query in the database of this system. You will only know when you use it."
"What suspense do you still have? Are you trying to trick me?"
…
On the 22nd, the Nets challenged the Spurs away from home.
Vince Carter was hit by Bruce Bowen when he was shooting a jumper, and he was injured and left the game on the spot.
This is the third time that Bowen stepped on his feet. After being stepped on by Bowen for the first time in 2003, his ankle and knee were injured at the same time. Since then, the UFO has been unable to fly very much.
Dayao called and chatted with Lao Wang for a long time, saying that this season is over again, because Mourning is still not good, the team is trading him, and now Carter is injured again, the team's injuries are too serious.
"You'd better pay attention to yourself and be careful not to get hurt." Lao Wang warned.
On the 25th, Alan Houston, who was still lying in the hospital after surgery, officially announced his retirement.
Then, the Knicks announced that Marbury, who had never been able to complete the deal, returned to the twelve-man roster.
At five o'clock in the afternoon on December 27, ESPN's NBA channel suddenly broadcast a message that Michael Jordan sold 5% of his shares in the Wizards.
On this day, the Suns visit San Antonio and will play against the Spurs.
At this time, the Suns' record was 20 wins and 7 losses, still second in the Western Conference.
The Spurs are third in the Western Conference, with 18 wins and 10 losses.
