NBA: This flower path is a bit strong

"Oh wow, it looks like the core of the Raptors was fooled by the experienced [Black and White] in this round!"

"The Jazz made a defensive loophole in the first round!"

A local commentator said gloatingly.

"It's no wonder, after all, Flower is too young to become the core of the team in the second year."

"On the road of basketball, being young means there are still many tuition fees to pay!"

"This time, Karl Malone and Stockton taught this young guy a lesson!"

And the other commentator played the role of mediator or rap opposite.

"In fact, Flower's performance is much better than other basketball players of the same age!"

"How many players have you seen with regular season data of [20+10] in their rookie season?"

"If I remember correctly, Karl Malone's rookie season was only [14+8]!"

"And he was able to lead the team to the second round of the playoffs in his first year and scored 40 points in the playoffs."

"I really can't imagine Flower's future, because he is too young to achieve the above achievements!"

The two commentators are citing classics and debating with each other based on the performance of both sides. As the two debate, the live broadcast ratings of this game are gradually increasing!

That's right, this game has been approved for live broadcast on the Flower Farm!

This is David Stern's unremitting efforts. With the help of Huadao as the king of NBA All-Star votes this year, he finally achieved this strategic goal!

And CCTV's first live commentary + commentator is our comrade Zhang Heli!

After many twists and turns, Comrade Zhang Heli returned to the familiar position, but this time, he was invited to participate in the commentary as a temporary part-time job.

And the commentary position was not in the live broadcast room of the Flower Planting Family, but at the scene of today's game - Salt Lake Energy Solution Arena.

"For this ball, it can't be blamed on Hua Dao's lack of experience. It's really that the pick-and-roll threat of the [Utah Double Evil] is too great!"

"Oh~ [Utah Double Evil] refers to Karl Malone who just scored and John Stockton who passed the ball!"

Then there was a series of popular science information about the [Black and White Double Evils], and the Chinese people knew:

Oh! It turns out that Jordan is not the only one who plays basketball badly abroad!

However, less than a minute after the start of the game, there was a wonderful scene of the two teams' stars fighting and colliding. Our Flower Planting Family players seemed to be the ones who suffered. This is not okay!

So countless viewers looked forward to the continuation of the game, hoping that Hua Dao could get back on track.

Hua Dao himself certainly understood that he couldn't be promoted to a super giant before the game and be hammered so hard in the game.

The whole world is watching this game between the first team in the East and the first team in the West. If he, as the core of one of the teams, doesn't fight back, the media will criticize him as much as they praised him before!

"You must stand up!"

At the signal of the referee, the Raptors served the ball.

Hanamichi stood at the 45-degree mid-range position early, holding Malone with one hand and calling for the ball from the outside with the other hand.

After successfully receiving the ball, Hanamichi squatted down and used a back-to-back.

Although Hanamichi's comprehensive low-post offensive ability, including back-to-back, has reached 116, which is considered to be at the forefront of the league, Hanamichi rarely uses this move.

Unless the physical fitness of the opposing player is too poor, and the difference in height and weight is too large, Hanamichi will use this dimensionality reduction attack, otherwise, Hanamichi will not use it in general.

There are three main reasons. One is that Hanamichi's own flexibility and diverse attack methods, back-to-back is just one of them, and sometimes it is even used as a smoke bomb or fake move to interfere with the judgment of the opposing defensive player.

Another reason is that Hanamichi knows that the league is about to introduce the [Barkley Rule] to restrict post-ups. In addition, he had previously promoted the game against the Timberwolves and showed the "out-of-scope" side of post-ups, so post-ups are about to be "severely cut" by the league.

The last one is the physical strength issue. Post-ups are a very practical and physical-saving offensive method, but Hanamichi can't use them at all.

With the [Physical Strength Monster] medal, he can completely open up his offense in the regular season with his durability and physical strength that are no less than that of the [Postman].

But other players don't know.

Karl Malone in front of him mistakenly thought that Hanamichi was going to use his "special" post-ups. After all, he used this trick to teach Minnesota's new [Wolf King] a lesson before the All-Star Game.

"What a coincidence! I know how to do post-ups!"

Karl Malone was very excited. He had practiced post-ups in the 1993 offseason. AfterIn the past four years of actual combat, all the back-to-the-basket techniques have been mastered.

"Excuse me, you can only back-to-the-basket in front of me if you have a fat ass like Barkley!"

Karl Malone is indeed confident. After all, he knows his real weight very well, which is 10kg heavier than Hanamichi.

He lowered his center of gravity, put his hands on his abdomen, and pressed them against Hanamichi's back, trying his best to resist Hanamichi's back-to-the-basket. At the same time, he also uttered provocative words:

"Boy, you want to back-to-the-basket? Let me teach you how to defend against back-to-the-basket!"

With these words, Karl Malone concentrated the strength of his upper body on his hands and back, forming a strong resistance, while his lower body with the center of gravity lowered was like an old tree with twisted roots, as stable as Mount Tai.

Hanamichi felt the huge pressure from behind, and his body leaned forward slightly, but he still tried to continue to back-to-the-basket.

The confrontation between the two became more and more intense, like a silent wrestling match, and the audience was very nervous.

At this tense moment, although Hua Dao secretly admired the opponent's strength and tenacity, it was limited to this. After all, he was about to retreat and would not accompany him!

Taking a deep breath and adjusting his posture, it seemed that Hua Dao was ready to make another effort to challenge Karl Malone's iron wall.

However, in fact, Hua Dao unexpectedly turned his back and broke through the opponent's defense.

Then he connected with an unexpected [iron blood jump shot] on the wing to complete this round of offense.

The whole action was clean and neat, the center of gravity moved down, and Karl Malone, who was preparing for physical confrontation, did not react at all.

The basketball was thrown in with a "swish" sound!

"Good shot, this shot is reasonable, that's how we should play him!"

Zhang Heli jumped up and down to cheer at the scene:

"Hua Dao handled this ball very reasonably, not to mention that Malone didn't react, even if he did, he couldn't complete the block!"

Hua Dao said: KG [Iron Blood Jump Shot], who is known to have the least number of blocks and has not been blocked once in the regular season, plus such a high shooting point, it would be strange if he could be blocked!

"Hey, man!"

"I'm not going to back up, you're the one who's going to be hit!"

Hua Dao, who scored a goal, counterattacked Malone's trash talk when he was defending his back-to-back!

It turned out that when Hua Dao turned around and passed Malone, his elbow accidentally touched the latter. After all, turning around and delivering the elbow has become Hua Dao's conditioned reflex. Even the referee didn't say anything. The person who was hit can only blame himself for his bad luck!

Fortunately, this move is not very harmful unless it is deliberately used!

Well, Hanamichi vs. Karl Malone, it was Hanamichi who showed his elbow first, didn't expect it!

"Karl, how are you?"

Stockton, the master of tricks who made it to the villain list and became one of the most disliked opponents in the league, of course, knew everything that just happened.

He hurried over to see the condition of his old friend with concern, but in fact, he was observing his old friend's mood to judge the intensity of this game: is it like the playoffs, or like WWE!

"It's okay, that guy is challenging me!"

Karl Malone put his hands on his waist and pressed on the place where Hanamichi had just elbowed him, and there was only slight pain.

"Even though I'm very optimistic about him, I still underestimated him!"

"His performance is nothing like a rookie who has played for one or two years. He has the agility of a veteran in basketball!"

"Maybe he is serious about not wanting to come to Salt Lake City!"

"In that case, we have to be serious about this game."

"John, show your playoff intensity. We can't let the young guys step on us two old guys to get to the top!"

John Stockton thought, it's you who's against him, what does it have to do with me! It's him who wants to step on you, it's none of my business!

But he made an OK gesture with his hand.
