  Chapter 592 Old K, because of you, I may die violently at any time now

   At half past eight, the game begins.

  Old Wang doesn't jump the ball now, this kid Stoudemire is good at jumping, let him jump the ball.

   However, Chandler's height and wingspan had the advantage, and he took the ball away first, and the Bulls attacked.

  The Bulls do not have a good point guard in this lineup. The main ball has always been in the hands of McGrady. He advances beyond the left wing three-point line, and Marion is facing him.

   "Bang bang..."

  The left elbow was stuck in place, facing Marion, McGrady suddenly started, took a step, and forced the defender.

"So fast!"

   Surprised, Marion quickly turned around and pursued.

   "McGrady's first step belongs to the historical level, fast and big strides." Barkley praised.

   Seeing McGrady coming towards the paint area, Pharaoh immediately moved up a step sideways to block the left waist of the paint area.

   McGrady's eyes shrank. Old K has always been a strong offensive and defensive player, but this does not mean that his defense is weak, but because his offense is too strong, his defense seems weak. In fact, his defense is definitely at the top level of the league.

But in an instant, everything in his eyes turned into excitement. As one of the four major shooting guards in the league, it is an honor to be able to challenge the number one player in history and the number one player in active service, Old K. Success will be a qualification and an honor.

  The next moment, he suddenly changed direction upwards, bypassing old K, and then accelerated at full speed, entering the paint area from the left elbow area.

   "Good guy!"

  Old Wang couldn't help but praise in his heart, and immediately turned halfway, put his chest close to McGrady, squeezed McGrady forward, and at the same time moved laterally towards the basket, and at this time Chandler, who he was guarding, had already entered the basket.

   "What a power!"

Medica's left elbow felt a huge force on his upper body, and his body felt like flying in an instant. He had no chance of dunking at the basket. At this time, the ball was pulled up from the floor, and he immediately grabbed it in his hand. And while taking off and gliding to the right, he threw the ball towards the basket.

  Old Wang has long been mentally prepared. How could McGrady's body like a chicken be able to stop him from being squeezed? So McGrady will definitely make a shot immediately, otherwise he can only be forced out of the paint by him.

"Snapped!"

   Under the block, the ball will fly.

   "The defense is really strong!" McGrady sighed inwardly.

   "Rebound!"

  When the ball flew into the sky, a bunch of people below were ready to grab the rebound, Chandler, Stoudemire, Marshall, McGrady, Marion and so on.

"mine!"

  The ball I picked up had the clearest landing point, and Pharaoh got stuck first, occupied the most favorable position, and caught the ball.

  Outside, Nash has already turned around and is about to go down. His speed surpassed Crawford, but the fast break failed.

  The Suns attacked, Lao Wang came to the frontcourt, did not drop the low post, but set a pick-and-roll for Nash in the high post.

Now he and Nash and Stoudemire and Nash's pick-and-roll tactics have become one of the Suns' regular season tactics. Both of them can shoot in the middle after the pick-and-roll, or go down to the basket, which is very threatening, especially his The hook is more accurate than Stoudemire's mid-range shot in the middle distance, and the pick-and-roll tactics are more threatening.

  Nash used the wall to break through, the Bulls did not dare to switch defenses, the height of the dislocation was too high, Lao Wang directly squeezed away Chandler and went down, the former rushed to the basket and pulled to the left, then turned around and threw the ball.

"boom!"

   Lao Wang caught the ball with one hand, smashed it, and easily scored a goal.

  Zhang Lili laughed and said: "Chandler is not comparable to Tie Jun in terms of tonnage or strength. Facing such an opponent, Tie Jun doesn't have to go around, just squeeze away."

Su Qun said with a smile: "Old K's high-position pick-and-roll tactics are indeed too threatening. If the opponent does not switch, he can use his mobile advantage to bypass the defender and go down, or directly squeeze the opponent away like just now. If he switches defenses, he He's got too much mismatch advantage with his height, the hook at the free throw line, just look at his free throw percentage."

   Zhang Reasonable said: "But now Stoudemire and Nash play more pick-and-roll tactics on the flanks. The Iron Army attracts defenses and competes for offensive rebounds in the low post, and gives up some shots to young people like Stoudemire and the others."

  Su Qun said: "Old K was born in June of 1973, he is almost 30 years old, and he is also a heavy center forward, so he really should stop playing, which can prolong his professional life.

  The current group of young people in the Suns are more fortunate than Kidd and the others. If it was back then, they would have been severely suppressed. "

  The Bulls are attacking, or breaking through, and they are not afraid because McGrady just got a hat. The Bulls' youth army still hopes to get more attention by making a brilliant performance on the old K through continuous impact.

   It can be said that the No. 1 player in active service and the No. 1 player in history has become a stepping stone for young players. If they can perform well on Old K, they may even become famous in one shot.

"Snapped!"

It was another big cap, and it was a **** volleyball cap. Lao Wang gave it to Jamal Crawford, who was rushing in, and fanned the ball directly out of the court. Crawford, who was not strong enough to fight, was even beaten He fell on the floor and his teeth cracked.

   "Boom!"

  Warm cheers erupted from the entire American West Arena.

   "Young people, work hard, you are the sun at one or two o'clock in the morning, and the future is destined to be yours." Lao Wang looked down at Crawford at his feet, and encouraged him sincerely as an old senior.

   "Thank you for your encouragement, old K, I will work hard." Crawford got up and thanked enduring the pain.

  If Kobe was here, he would say to him: "Silly hat, there is no sun at one or two o'clock in the morning, and your future is dark."

  The Bulls attack again.

   McGrady took over the banner of the breakthrough, continued to attack the old K, and broke through Marion again, holding the ball to the paint area.

   Being stepped by McGrady one after another, Marion wanted to scratch him very much.

   This time, Chandler didn't move towards the basket, but took a step sideways. He screened McGrady and blocked Marion who was chasing down.

   "Squeak..."

  Pharaoh moved sideways and blocked McGrady's breakthrough path. The latter turned and changed directions continuously, forcing him to retreat continuously and retreat to the basket.

  At this time, McGrady dribbled the ball and turned downward again, avoiding the front of Lao Wang, and then his figure exploded, and he was about to dunk under the backboard.

  Old Wang dealt with it very calmly. He was able to defend a lot of Jordan's breakthroughs. Now his mobility is better than before and his defensive ability is stronger. Facing the breakthroughs of McGrady and other young people, he will use defense to teach these boys a lesson.

   Just when McGrady finally turned downward, he immediately made a prediction that McGrady was going to make a shot, because if he didn't make a shot at this time, he would be double-teamed under the basket, so he immediately made preparations to block the shot.

"Snapped!"

   Quickly moved half a step down, jumped almost at the same time as McGrady, and pressed his big hand accurately on the basketball, directly sealing McGrady's dunk.

  The ball jumped up, and the two jumped again after landing. Lao Wang got the ball by virtue of his height. McGrady hit Lao Wang in the air, landed unstable, staggered and fell to the ground directly.

  The Suns played a fast break. Lao Wang first passed to Nash, and Nash made a second pass to Marion. The latter made a dunk when he went to the basket.

   "Three caps at the start, old K's defense is going to explode today!" Su Qun said excitedly.

  "Since the rookie season, for so many years, every time the Tiejun has exploded on the defensive end, his team has almost never lost." Zhang rationally laughed.

  Su Qun said with a smile: "This season, Old K will not compete for the scoring title or MVP, but this DPOY should be his."

Zhang Lili nodded and said: "Tiejun has two DPOYs. If he gets another one this year, it will be three. In addition to 5 first-team defenses and one second-team defense, he should be regarded as one of the most powerful defensive centers in the history of the league. .”

"Snapped!"

  The voices of the two fell silent, Lao Wang intercepted the pass from McGrady to Chandler, and the Suns played fast break again.

  "K's defense is really going to explode today." Kenny Smith said.

Barkley said with a smile: "Stoudemire and Joe Johnson need to cultivate some shots. Old K will give up some shots to his teammates. He can only work harder on defense, otherwise he will have nothing to do on the court! He can't just hang around and do nothing, right? "

   "Haha..." Kenny Smith laughed.

   By the 7th minute of the third quarter, at 45:80, the Suns had already led by 35 points at home, and the Bulls called a timeout.

Barkley said: "The Bulls only scored 15 points in the first quarter, 20 points in the second quarter, and now they have scored 10 points in the third quarter. The offense has a big problem. The reason, of course, is the old K's defense. "

   Speaking of this, he picked up a statistics sheet in his hand, shook it with a smile, and said with a smile: "This is old K's data, I will read it for everyone.

  Old K has played 25 minutes, and now he has 18 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 13 blocks. That is to say, he is only one steal short of getting the first regular season 5*5 data of his career. "

Kenny Smith hasn't seen it yet, so he quickly grabbed the statistics table, looked at it, and said in surprise: "4 steals and 13 blocks? I only know that old K has too many caps today, and the Bulls' outside lines have been numb by his caps." , did not expect 13 caps?

  It seems that after the old K reduced his offense, his performance became more and more versatile. I think his current style of play does not contribute less to the team than when he was fully attacking. "

   Barkley shook his head and said: "Kenny, you have never been the core of the team, so you don't understand this. In fact, the core players' play style must be changed reasonably according to the team's lineup and the opponents they encounter, and cannot be static."

   "Flying Pig, if you can speak, just say a few more words."

  Kenny Smith glared at Barkley angrily when he heard this pretending to be 13.

Barkley grinned and laughed, and continued: "What's the change? That is, when the core players are needed to be more versatile, they should play an all-around performance. When defensive energy is needed, he should provide defensive energy, and the core players need to score. At that time, he will stand up and take over the offensive banner."

   "Do you still want to fight?"

  The Bulls bench came forward, and the head coach Bill Cartwright, who was already drenched all over his body, asked.

  McGrady and several youth soldiers sat on the bench with their heads slumped, panting, sweating profusely, their eyes were all dazed, and they seemed to have been hit hard.

   None of them answered the question, and Cartwright shook his head helplessly.

He was not surprised at the state of these young people. No matter who swallowed 13 caps in 25 minutes, even if everyone shared them equally, the person who ate the fewest caps also ate two. The core McGrady alone swallowed 5 caps. , will also be hit so that morale collapses.

  He beckoned, called a few substitutes, and got them ready to play.

   "Hey, the Bulls gave up, so the old K probably won't play. Although 5*5 is precious, he has never got it, but he should not care about this data." Barkley said.

   At this time, Zhang Lili also said: "The Bulls gave up, and the Tiejun will definitely not play again. He has never had the habit of collecting statistics on weak teams. A triple-double counts."

   Sure enough, Pharaoh sat on the bench and didn't get up, giving up the chance to play the first 5*5 in his career.

After the game, when Lao Wang passed by McGrady, he saw McGrady's bewildered face. He couldn't bear it, and said in an encouraging tone: "Young people, don't be discouraged. You see, I'm getting old soon. The future of the league, you are the sun at one or two o'clock in the morning, and you are thriving."

  Hearing this kind of encouraging words, which was said to him by the first person in the league, McGrady couldn't help being excited, and his morale immediately recovered.

  Win the Bulls, the Suns 32 wins and 18 losses, still fifth in the West.

  The All-Star Weekend starts on Friday the 7th, and is officially held on the 8th and 9th. The Suns had no games in the previous few days and had several days of rest.

   On the morning of the 4th, Lao Wang and Fei Ge took Zhou Zhou to Los Angeles and stayed at the villa in Beverly Hills for two days. On the 7th, he flew to Atlanta alone.

   This year's All-Star was held in Atlanta, the Hawks' home stadium, Phillips Arena.

  East, starting players are Yao Min, Jermaine O'Neal, Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Iverson, of which Vince Carter was selected as a forward.

  The seven substitute All-Stars in the Eastern Conference are Ben Wallace, Kidd, Jamal Mashburn, Paul Pierce, Antoine Walker, Brad Miller, and Big Z.

  The five starting All-Stars in the West are Wang Tiejun, Duncan, Garnett, Kobe, and Steve Francis.

  The seven substitute All-Stars are Marbury, Peja, Payton, Marion, Nowitzki, O'Neal, Michael Bibby.

   Lao Wang feels sorry for Nash. Nash averaged 16 points and 9.5 assists per game this season, and he is also capable of being selected as an All-Star.

  But because the Suns already have two All-Stars, one as a starter and one as a substitute, the league's current attitude towards the Suns will not be so generous to the Suns, because Lao Wang will be more or less suppressed.

  Although the All-Star substitute is selected by the coach, everything is under the control of the league. It is not bad to be able to give Marion a substitute qualification. It is impossible for the Suns to have three All-Stars in five starters.

In addition, he also feels that he is indeed old, because there are not many people who debuted around the same time as him, or who were before him, and who are still all-stars. Dayton, other All-Stars entered the league later than him.

   Arrived in Atlanta at 3:00 p.m., arrived at the hotel arranged by the league at 4:00 p.m., and was surrounded by reporters for half an hour before entering the lobby.

   There are more than 20 all-stars, each with a good relationship has their own circles. After Lao Wang entered the hotel, before entering the room, a group of all-stars gathered around him.

There are Dayao, Ben, and Kidd in the East, and Kobe, O'Neal, Duncan, Marion, Bibby, and Peja in the West, and he himself has ten people, more than one-third. This is a good relationship, usually Connect with a lot of friends.

   Bibby is from Phoenix. He was his fan in college. He not only came here by himself, but also brought Peja along.

   "Shark, are you... losing weight?" He asked O'Neill after eyeing him.

  O'Neill immediately said with a painful face: "Because of you, old K, the team forced me to lose weight, and I may die suddenly at any time now."

  Old Wang twitched his face, and said with some disgust: "Then you'd better stay away and don't follow me."

   "Puff! Haha..." A group of people burst into laughter.

   "..."

   O'Neill was so distraught that he couldn't speak for a moment.

  After Pharaoh put down his luggage in the room, Iverson and Marbury also came to find them. A group of them had reached 12 people, exactly half of them.

  Looking at the time, it was almost five o'clock, he waved and shouted: "Come on, let's go to the restaurant, I'll treat you to dinner."

   "Boss, what entertainment do we arrange for the evening?" Marion asked hastily.

   "Where do you want to go to play? How about we call and ask Mutombo or Ewing, Jordan is also fine, maybe there is a second golden club in Atlanta?" Old Wang said.

   "Haha..." A group of people burst into laughter.

   "Old K?"

   Just as the elevator door opened, Jordan was inside.

   "It's just right, flying man, we want to find a place like the Golden Club to play, do you have a connection?" Old Wang joked.

   "Get out!" Jordan said angrily.

   "Where are you going?" He asked again.

   "Dinner, do you want a treat?" Old Wang asked maliciously.

   "Aren't you the first person? Of course you invited me." Jordan suffered a lot, so he won't be fooled this time.

   "Are you still going out?"

  Old Wang walked into the elevator, seeing that Jordan would not go out, he hurriedly urged.

   "Of course I want to save face when you treat me. How much money you have earned from us over the years, we are happy to eat your meal." Jordan said with peace of mind.

  Old Wang couldn't help but said distressedly: "You may not believe it, but in fact I didn't make any money at all, and I even took in hundreds of millions of dollars."

   At this time, everyone came in, Marion in front pressed the button, and the elevator started to go up.
