Super All-around Point Guard

In his entire NBA career, O'Neal only admitted to being dunked by one person, and that person was Derrick Coleman, the No. 1 pick in 1990. Others were called dunked by him and did not count as dunks.

Speaking of the only person who can dunk on O'Neal, it is also embarrassing. Derek Coleman was the No. 1 pick selected by the New Jersey Nets at the time. His talent was shocking. People regarded him as the next Karl Malone. Or Charles Barkley, who was even predicted to become the best power forward ever!

It was while there that Coleman dunked O'Neal. O'Neal thought he was going to pick the basket, but he dunked it directly. After dunking, he wagged his finger at O'Neal. Oh my god, can you believe it? Someone actually slapped O'Neal and wagged his finger at O'Neal!

Since that time, O'Neal has never been detained again. He does not allow others to act wildly on his head.

This talented power forward was only selected to the All-Star twice in the end, and soon became a third-rate player. Like many stars, his personality was his biggest problem. He was arrested for fighting, slacking off in training, and losing weight after injuries and rest. Fatal obesity and alcoholism ruined his career.

But in fact, is he the only one who really dunks on O'Neal? No, Xie Chen dunked on O'Neal. In the Legend Challenge, Xie Chen remembered clearly. At that time, Xie Chen used James' layup ability many times to succeed. O'Neal thought Xie Chen was another layup, but he didn't expect Xie Chen to dunk directly. .

"Hahaha, what did you say? Did you dunk me? In a dream?" O'Neal slapped his thigh and laughed. Others also laughed. They all thought Xie Chen was crazy for wanting to dunk O'Neal.

Barkley said: "I think you are definitely capable of dunking O'Neal, but it's a pity that you didn't have a chance to fight."

It was impossible for Xie Chen to tell the truth, so he could only laugh and said: "Okay, ignore what I just said, O'Neal chose himself, Charles, do you want to choose yourself too?"

Barkley thought for a moment and said, "Vince Carter, I still have to choose him."

Weber replied: "Vince Carter, uh, and Rain Man Shawn Kemp, I love that guy."

Xie Chen was thoughtful. He hadn't met this guy in the Legend Challenge yet, and he didn't know much about Rain Man. He only vaguely remembered the BT man who said "Simplify basketball into high jump".

Kenny Smith said: "Dominick Wilkins, yes, I will choose him. Of course, Vince Carter is also a guy who cannot be ignored. In the slam dunk contest in 2000, we were all speechless. Know what to say.”

Xie Chen has never encountered the Wilkins that Kenny Smith mentioned. Wilkins is called "the essence of human movies" and his dunks are also quite brutal. Xie Chen really hoped to meet him and then compete with him to see who was more powerful.

Thomas chose Jordan.

After selecting these two abilities, the ability that Xie Chen was more concerned about was ushered in. The person they selected is likely to become the target of Xie Chen's future copying.

Shot blocking ability.

Kenny Smith said: "Blocking is an action that requires close contact with the opponent, so your physical confrontation must be good and your bounce speed must be fast. I choose Hakeem Olajuwon, he can become the historical shot blocker in the NBA. The king still has a reason.”

O'Neal still chose himself, Webb chose Mourning, Barkley chose Dwight Howard, and Thomas also chose Dwight Howard, of course Howard during the Magic era.

"Two people chose Howard from the Magic era." After hearing the results, Xie Chen also thought about it. Since he can copy the stars of the past era, Xie Chen's new skills are mainly copied from those stars who have retired. , he did not consider the current players. In Howard's peak period, he was as good as any star of any era. At that time, he had strength, resistance, bounce, and very fast speed. Xie Chen should copy his ability. It would be nice.

For historical shot-blocking leaders like Olajuwon, their statistics are indeed better, but many of their blocks are achieved by their body, wingspan and awareness. What Xie Chen wants is not these, what he wants is pure ability.

Xie Chen suddenly wanted to know what they thought of Griffin's shot-blocking ability, which he had been using in the past, so he asked: "What do you think of Griffin's shot-blocking ability?"

O'Neal chuckled after hearing this: "What? Griffin? Can he be included in the discussion?"

Griffin's arms are not very long, so he is not very impressive in terms of blocking shots, but Thomas, the smiling assassin, went on to say: "No, Shaq, what Xie refers to is pure ability, and has nothing to do with body size and consciousness. Griffin has bounce, confrontation and staying in the air, and his shot-blocking ability is excellent, if not outstanding. But he still can't compare to Dwight Howard."

"OK, Dwight Howard..." Xie Chen wrote this name, hoping that he would have the opportunity to copy it the next time he plays the Magic in an away game.

Next is the ability to rebound. This time, everyone was surprisingly unanimous, and they all chose Charles Barkley.

Xie Chen has not met Barkley yet, and it seems that he will have something to do next time he meets.

Then there is the defensive ability. In fact, personal defense is also a matter of the player's enthusiasm. But if we only look at ability, it depends on whether the person's speed can keep up with the opponent and whether he can create a sense of oppression for the opponent on the defensive end. , when the opponent wants to shoot, the degree to which this person interferes with the opponent's shot, and when the opponent wants to break through, the degree to which this person blocks the opponent.

"Kawhi Leonard." Kenny Smith said: "He is the best defensive player I have ever seen among players of similar size to him. His ability can cause endless pressure on opponents. It is a kind of It's a suffocating feeling. No matter you are breaking through or shooting in front of him, it is too difficult to get rid of him. His defensive ability is really amazing."

Thomas still wants to brag about Jordan: "If you add the defensive attitude, I will definitely choose Michael Jordan, because Jordan's defense, no matter what, he will eat you, and he will never admit defeat, even if he really can't guard you, he will He will not let you score goals. Defensively, he will not let you build any confidence. If you look at it only from the perspective of ability, I have to praise the young Tracy McGrady. His speed to follow the opponent and his amazing bounce are all It’s very appreciative.”

Weber chose Artest, Xie Chen's teammate, and Barkley and O'Neal chose different ones. It can't be helped. Xie Chen's question was a bit strange. When evaluating a person's ability, one must also consider Take away this person's sexual fighting spirit, especially defense. No matter how strong your defensive ability is, if you don't have the determination to fight your opponent to the end, it's useless. So in fact, the most important thing is not defense. Talent, but determination.

But the next thing is related to talent, steals, you can't do it without talent.

The talent required to steal is not only speed but also speed. The first is the instant start-up speed. This is extremely important when intercepting the opponent's pass, because when the opponent passes the ball, he must feel that there is no threat in front of the opponent. If you are close to the opponent, his teammates will not Will risk passing it on.

Therefore, there is a certain distance between the defender and the receiver, and today's players pass the ball very quickly. If a person wants to complete the steal, he must run faster than the ball. If he had run before, it would be okay. If you start from the same spot, you have to start very quickly instantly.

The instant start speed is not necessarily proportional to the player's size. People with tall stature can also have extremely fast instant start speed, such as LeBron James. I believe those who have watched him play must remember that many James steals the ball and then starts a fast break. The picture of dunk.

In addition to the instantaneous starting speed, the continuous running speed is also a very important indicator. Many friends still remember the scene of Jordan being intercepted. The ball Jordan had already passed the opponent and then went straight to the frontcourt to attack. Unexpectedly, the defender followed Jordan all the way and intercepted the ball from behind Jordan.

There are many ways to steal the ball. It may be that the opponent is dribbling and you rush over to steal it. It may also be that someone else passes the ball and you complete the steal. It may also be that someone else throws the ball into the air and passes it to a teammate for an alley-oop. You jump up to block the steal. , so stealing requires more than one talent. I don’t know who these people will choose.

O'Neal suddenly thought of his former opponent in the finals, a small man he admired very much, Allen Iverson. O'Neal said: "AI, he is too fast, and FLASH, when I was a teammate D-WADE, they are like a gust of wind, taking the ball away from your eyes in one swish, and when you see them again, they have already completed the dunk."

Charles Barkley said: "CP3, you also watched the game between the Clippers and the Warriors. Before Xie and his Knicks ended the Warriors' winning streak, the Clippers had the best chance to win the Warriors, and in that game , CP3 stole several balls from Curry’s hands, which is enough to prove his ability.”

Someone nominated Chris Paul. Xie Chen was quite happy because he used Paul's skills to complete so many steals. However, after using it for a long time, Xie Chen felt that it was necessary to copy another person's steal ability, not Paul's. His ability is not good, but to steal is to steal the ball from others. There will inevitably be a physical collision when stealing. Although Paul is considered strong, he is not tall and his weight is too light. If he meets Drummond Players like DeGreen will suffer greatly.

If Xie Chen replicates it again, he will definitely choose a player who is fast and capable of physical confrontation.

Reggie Miller, Webb, Thomas, all said in unison: "FLASH."

The Flash, the Flash at his peak, didn't expect that these older stars who had never played against Wade would all choose Wade. It seems that Wade's steals are impressive even if they are just watched.

"OK, now that we've finished discussing steals, the last one, who do you think has the best shooting ability?" Host Xie Chen asked the last question.

Xie Chen no longer needs to copy his ability to shoot. Stephen Curry’s three-point shot from long range is SS-level. I believe Curry is the only SS in the entire NBA history. Mid-range shooting is like Michael Jordan’s SS. A fadeaway jumper, and Xie Chen's own mid-range shot is also very good.

"Beyond the three-point line is Stephen Curry, and inside the three-point line it is Kobe." This is O'Neal's answer.

Thomas: "It's Reggie Miller outside the three-point line, it's Jordan inside the three-point line."

Reggie Miller: "It's Ray Allen outside the three-point line, it's Michael Jordan inside the three-point line."

Weber: "It's Curry outside the three-point line, and Kobe inside the three-point line."

Barkley: "It's Curry outside the three-point line, and it's Shaq inside the three-point line."

"Hahaha." After Barkley said it, everyone laughed. Barkley quickly added: "I mean you are the worst shooter inside the three-point line."

No one has any objection to this.

Then, Xie Chen began to summarize: "OK, according to the results of everyone's voting, the player with the most layups is Michael Jordan, Carter with the strongest dunk ability, Charles Barkley with rebounds, and Dwight Howard with blocks. Everyone has different answers when it comes to close defense, and everyone agrees that in terms of steals, it was Flash Wade at his peak."

After Xie Chen finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief and felt very satisfied. At least he got three lists: Barkley, Howard and Wade.

This episode of the program has come to an end here. Generally speaking, Xie Chen’s performance is pretty good. It was a pleasure chatting with these people. They thought that Xie Chen would not be able to play with the past stars’ playing styles in the past era. They didn't know much, but after talking, they found that Xie Chen knew a lot, as if he had experienced it himself, which surprised them.

After recording the program, Xie Chen started secret training alone. He was able to score 2-3 out of 10 shots behind the backboard. His hit rate also improved a lot when he hit layups after colliding with others. He has made the most accurate and improved shots after fouling. He can basically score half of the ten goals. Now he can't wait to go on the court and let others foul him.

Xie Chen continues to improve, but the Knicks' record is still worrying. Since Xie Chen was suspended, until now, the Knicks have not won a game, falling directly from fourth in the Eastern Conference to 10th in the Eastern Conference. Many people are worried Jokingly said that if Xie Chen does not come back, the Knicks' record will catch up with the 76ers.

You know, the 76ers started the regular season with a 20-game losing streak. Okafor was going crazy at the time. He had been in the NBA for so long and couldn't win a game. What's the use no matter how good he was? When thinking about last year's rookie Xie Chen setting a winning streak since the start of the season, Okafor really wants to hit the wall.

Two days later, Xie Chen was training profusely in the arena. At this time, two more guests came to visit. This person was not an uninvited guest like Karl Malone, but someone Xie Chen had been looking forward to meeting again, Michael Jordan. and Scottie Pippen.
