God of NBA point guards

Chapter 193 All Star Performance

In the live broadcast room of CCTV in the capital, the commentators are Song Shixiong and Xu Jicheng.

The CCTV Sports Department paid great attention to this All-Star live broadcast, but they couldn't find a commentator who knew more about the NBA. They had to pull out the veteran Song Shixiong and the novice Xu Jicheng to form a combination of young and old.

Xu Jicheng only became CCTV's basketball consultant in 92. His qualifications are very low, but he is really one of the few people on CCTV who understands the NBA.

But his unit is Xinhua News Agency. After graduating from university in 86, he was assigned to the Sports Department of Xinhua News Agency. He was a reporter for Xinhua News Agency and specialized in basketball coverage. He was hired as a basketball consultant for CCTV last year.

Seeing Zhou Quan's steal, Song Shixiong said with an ouch: "Zhou Quan's reaction is really fast, I thought he was distracted just now, haha!"

Xu Jicheng smiled and said: "Mr. Song, so far, Zhou Quan's steal data in the NBA league is 3.3 times per game, the first in the league, more than that of Jordan, who is second, with an average of 2.8 times per game.

With an average of 0.5 steals per game, it is difficult for Jordan to catch up with this statistic. It can be said that Zhou Quan has firmly won the steals leader this season. "

"3.3 times?"

Song Shixiong was really surprised. He is not a professional basketball commentator, but he is also familiar with basketball. This statistic is really strong.

"Yes, this is the data provided by Zhang Lizhang's guidance. And he is still the NBA's assist leader so far, averaging 13.8 times per game. No.2 is his opponent John Stockton in this All-Star Game, averaging 12 times per game. assist." Xu Jicheng said again.

"13.8 assists per game?" Song Shixiong was surprised again.

Xu Jicheng added: "In addition, Zhou Quan is currently No.5 in the NBA MVP rankings. This means that so far, he is the fifth player with the best performance in the league this season. This is very powerful. He is only No. [-]. Two seasons."

"What? Zhou, Zhou Quan is so strong?" Song Shixiong was not surprised this time, but shocked.

As the ace commentator of the CCTV sports department, the U.S. men's basketball team became the dream team in the Olympics last year, allowing the whole world to see the NBA's level, including him.

At that time, when he saw Jordan and the others playing, he felt a sense of shock. It turns out that basketball can still be played like this, and it can also fly in the sky to play.

He knows that eleven of the dream team are from the NBA, and they are the most powerful players in the NBA. Now, Zhou Quan is actually one of the five best performers in the NBA, that is to say, the group that shocked him In the dream team, there were actually many people who did not perform as well as Zhou Quan, which immediately shocked him.

……

Delta Center Arena, the West will attack again, and the glider will stay in the backcourt to support.

He and Jordan are absolute rivals. He didn't know that Jordan was going to target Zhou Quan, but just at the beginning, Barkley and the postman lost their own people to double-team Zhou Quan. This did not fit the atmosphere of the All-Stars at all, so he understood Come over, Jordan is likely to pull Barkley and the others to deal with Zhou Quan.

But he is an All-Star in the Western Conference, and it is impossible for him to help Zhou Quan, so he can only pretend to be invisible and do his job well.

With the glider in the backcourt, Zhou Quan was of course unwilling to pass the ball to Drexler, so he didn't interfere any more and let John Stockton receive the ball.

Now there is only O'Neal as a teammate, and the other three are traitors. With the addition of five Westerners, they will play two against eight, and if they want to make a difference, they must not let go of the opportunity on the defensive end.

John Stockton moved forward with the ball, Zhou Quan was in front and defended and retreated. He had no intention of pressing, and kept retreating past the center line.

Seeing the postman looking at him from the left flank, John Stockton turned left to go around the front Zhou Quan and go to the left flank.

He was relieved because there was a distance of two meters between himself and Zhou Quan.

"what?"

But at this moment, Zhou Quan took a big step with his right foot, his upper body bent forward sharply, and at the same time as he stepped up to grab the ball, his right hand stabbed at his ball. The movement was very sudden, and there was obviously a distance of two meters between the two of them. , but at this moment it is gone.

"predict!"

Zhou Quan's poke was fast and accurate. John Stockton was changing direction to the left. Before he had time to protect the ball, the ball was poked off and rolled across the center line. He hurriedly turned around to grab the ball.

"The ball is broken!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

At this time, Zhou Quan was in a posture of leaning forward greatly, taking big strides, with his right foot in front and his left foot behind. With his hands on the ground, he took advantage of the momentum and rushed forward like a tiger.

This tiger-like movement puts his center of gravity on the upper body, forcing his feet to move rapidly in succession.

He kicked forward slightly so that he didn't fall to the ground.

However, he couldn't keep up with John Stockton. He immediately kicked his feet, dived forward, and jumped over from the opponent. He flew a distance of more than two meters, and slammed on the floor, taking the lead. One step caught the ball.

"I got the ball!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly again.

But at this time, John Stockton also rushed to Zhou Quan's side, trying to grab the ball.

"Give me the ball."

"give me."

Jordan, Pippen, and Larry Johnson rushed over quickly.

Zhou Quan was lying on the floor, smashing the ball with both hands. Stockton above him had very little strength. Although his hands were on the ball, he couldn't grab it at all.

With his strength, he could have thrown the ball out forcibly, but he didn't do that. He didn't want to pass it to Jordan and the three guys.

Jordan was in a hurry when he saw it, and he went up to grab the ball, but Zhou Quan smashed the ball, and he couldn't grab it for a while. At this time, the referee's whistle blew, and the ball was scrambled.

"Why not give it to me?" Jordan asked angrily.

"Old guy, don't you think I don't know about your little trick?" Zhou Quan stood up and said in Michael Jordan's ear.

Jordan snorted angrily, turned around and left.

"Shaq, don't forget, I'll give you the ball."

"I'll send you back."

Next, Zhou Quan ran to O'Neal to jump the ball in the middle circle, communicated with him, and then stood on the middle circle.

"Snapped!"

Jump ball, Zhou Quan is taller than Stockton, with longer wingspan, faster and higher bounce, faster reaction, no suspense, he took the lead in touching the ball, and swiped the ball towards O'Neal in the air, the ball was accurately flew over.

As soon as O'Neal received the ball, Jordan and the three immediately asked him for the ball, but he didn't give it to him. He threw it with both hands and passed it back to Zhou Quan.

"Damn shark! Follow that bastard of Iron Fist, you just wait and see, you will feel better." Jordan cursed secretly.

As soon as Zhou Quan received the ball, he immediately forcibly slammed past Stockton in front of him, and after rushing past, he accelerated and rushed towards the basket with the ball.

According to the scheduled plan, Barkley and postman Malone ignored their own people and rushed to establish a defense line at the free throw line.

Their purpose is to force Zhou Quan to pass the ball to Jordan and the others, without giving Zhou Quan the opportunity to attack.

Larry Johnson and Pippen have been completely empty, the position is very good, at this time from the two wings to the basket diagonally, while reaching for the ball to Zhou Quan.

At the top of the arc, Zhou Quan suddenly stopped, ignoring the two who asked him for the ball, and stepped back to shoot a jumper.

It was too late for Barkley and the postman to pounce, so they could only defend with their eyes.

The glider, which was just one step away, had no intention of coming to help defend, and let Zhou Quan take the shot.

Jordan's hands were a little itchy, and he really wanted to rush over and slap Zhou Quan.

"brush!"

Splashes appeared and a three-pointer was hit.

"Hey, Flying Man, I feel good today, what do you think?" After succeeding, Zhou Quan spat trash talk at Jordan who was close at hand.

Jordan's teeth were a little itchy. It's a pity he wasn't on the Western Conference All-Star team today, otherwise he would have definitely slapped this bastard with a big hat just now.

Pat Riley sat on the bench and watched the show. Of course he saw the secret battle between Zhou Quan and Jordan, but it had nothing to do with him. It was just an All-Star, and he could play whatever he wanted.

West again attack.

Stockton held the ball across the center line, and this time his attitude was more cautious. Even if Zhou Quan in front was two meters away from him, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

He tried to advance to the top of the arc, but Zhou Quan didn't retreat a step, and immediately pressed for it, which made him understand that Zhou Quan didn't intend to let him get close to the top of the arc, and on the postman's side, Larry Johnson took a circle forward, and he didn't It's a long pass, so I immediately raised my hand and asked for the postman's pick and roll at the center line.

Zhou Quan knew very well that he couldn't let Stockton get close to the top of the arc, or he didn't want the opponent to get close to the postman, because the postman was facing up to Larry Johnson, a short guy. There will be a dislocation advantage.

Then if he controls Stockton far from the three-point line, Stockton will have concerns about passing the ball to the postman, because the pass is too far away and it is easy to be intercepted, which is why he is so far away. The position is the reason for strengthening the defense.

At this time, the postman came from the left wing to Zhou Quan's right side. His weight, physique, and strength are the best wall. big.

At the same time, he is good at mid-range shooting and is the best pick-and-roll player, and he complements Stockton well.

At this time, Stockton walked around behind the postman, ready to rush between the postman and Larry Johnson, but at this moment, Zhou Quan turned around the postman very quickly and blocked him again. With a poke of his big hand, he poked the ball away.

The next moment, the four of them scrambled into a ball, among which Zhou Quan, who stabbed the ball, was the most prepared and took the lead.

Not far away, Jordan and the others also rushed over to grab the ball, but Zhou Quan had already caught the ball in his hands, smashed the ball with both hands, turned around suddenly, shook off the hands on it, and then dribbled the ball. Taking a step back, ignoring Jordan's request for the ball, bypassing Larry Johnson, and starting to move forward quickly.

"It's the third steal, Zhou Quan's performance is really strong!" Sun Zhenping said excitedly on the sidelines.

"It should only be counted twice, and it won't be counted the second time." Zhang Lili said.

The two of them are only interviewing on the front line this time, not commentary. Only when the camera cuts to them will they introduce the situation on the scene.

At this time, Zhou Quan attacked the right wing of the frontcourt, holding the ball diagonally to the basket, and Jordan came down from the middle, reaching out to him for the ball.

Neither Larry Johnson nor John Stockton is as fast as him. The fastest Stockton is two meters away from him. In this case, he cannot pass the ball, and he ignores Jordan. Rush past the right waist and take off directly.

"This bastard!"

Jordan cursed secretly, while rushing out of the baseline from the basket.

After playing several rounds, he still hasn't touched the ball, which makes him feel like he's back to the first All-Star scene where he was isolated by a group of assassins.

He felt very aggrieved. He had clearly discussed to isolate that bastard together. Why were they isolated instead?
"boom!"

The next moment, Zhou Quan flew to the basket and made a dunk with a change of hands under the crotch, which won another round of warm applause.

9:0, the Western All-Stars have not scored yet, and head coach Paul Westphal had to call a timeout.

Zhou Quan scored 7 points in a row, and sent 2 steals and 1 assist. He was the one with the most outstanding performance, and he could be called a star among the stars at the beginning.

"It seems, Michael Jordan, Pippen, Barkley, the three of them haven't touched the ball yet?" In the ESPN commentary booth, Howardon asked uncertainly.

"It's not like, it's just that I haven't touched the ball."

Winston couldn't help laughing and said, "Iron Fist steals three times in a row, and the second should count as well. He played two fast breaks and gave O'Neal an assist. The two took over the Eastern Conference's offense."

David Stern sat on the sidelines and shook his head helplessly, but he would not interfere. In matters on the field, whoever has the ability can show the limelight.

He likes Jordan to be the one with the brightest stars, but if Zhou Quan has the strength and influence, he doesn't mind Zhou Quan becoming Jordan's competitor.

He is not worried about Zhou Quan grabbing Jordan's position. In terms of personal strength, Jordan is enough to crush Zhou Quan. At the same time, in terms of influence, because Zhou Quan is Chinese, he has a natural identity in the United States and in the entire Western world. Weakness, this cannot be changed, even if it is replaced by an American loan, it cannot be changed.

But the start of this All-Star gave him the idea of ​​sending Zhou Quan to the West again, but Zhou Quan is only in his second season and has a two-year contract. He has to finish at least the next season before he has a chance .

"Iron Fist, you stole Jordan's limelight, aren't you afraid of being replaced?" Roberts laughed teasingly when Zhou Quan left the court.

"I'm not afraid of competition."

He smiled, looked at Christina Yeri next to him, and said to the two daughters, "When will we play golf together?"

"Everyone has time to make an appointment."

Roberts said, and Christina Yeri nodded with a smile.

After the timeout, both sides did not make substitutions. After all, this is just the start and it is not suitable to replace the starters.

The West will attack again and serve from the sideline of the backcourt.

Stockton suffered losses in Zhou Quan's hands one after another, lost face continuously, and was not in a good mood, holding the ball forward with a cold face.

In the previous few times, Zhou Quan did not press in the backcourt, and only pressed after passing the halfway line, but this time he decided to be unexpected.

"what?"

John Stockton dribbled the ball downwards, and in the next moment, he saw Zhou Quan step up and poke him with a big hand, he couldn't help being shocked.

"Snapped!"

The next moment, when the basketball bounced off the floor but before it fell into Stockton's hands, Zhou Quan's big hand inserted in time, and then pulled back.

"Oh, steal the ball, steal the ball again!"

In the ESPN commentary booth, Larry Winston immediately snapped.

"squeak!"

Zhou Quan rushed forward with his feet and swept past Stockton. The latter was directly thrown to the ground by him, and he rushed to the basket a few meters away.

After Barkley served the ball and entered the court, he ran towards Zhou Quan in a hurry, but how could there be time?

Zhou Quan took two steps into the paint and then took off. Instead of gliding, he vacated with all his strength, turned around 360 degrees, and then made a strong slam dunk.

"boom!"

The basket of the Western All-Star team was exploded again.

On the sidelines, a row of star players stood up and applauded Zhou Quan.

In the CCTV studio, Xu Jicheng and Song Shixiong were shocked.

A few months ago, they just experienced seven games and seven defeats in the Olympic men's basketball team. The Chinese men's basketball team has a very obvious weakness, that is, the back line cannot face the full-court press of foreign strong teams. They are not used to it and make many mistakes .

But now, Zhou Quan can continuously steal the starting point guard of the dream team.

Xu Jicheng stammered excitedly: "If, if last year's Olympic Games we have Zhou Quan..."

"Ahem..." Song Shixiong immediately coughed dryly.

Xu Jicheng also reacted immediately, quickly changed the subject, and said, "It's a pity, we didn't know him at all last year."

At Liu Yumin's home, she also felt very sorry to hear Xu Jicheng's words.

Last year, if Zhou Quan had been brought in, there would have been seven defeats and seven defeats. With Zhou Quan's strength, maybe the men's basketball team would still have a chance to break out of the group stage. If so, the worst would be eighth in the world.

"See how many times you can break!"

Jordan was depressed to death, but Zhou Quan was able to steal Stockton with his ability, and he had nothing to do.

"Stockton is such a piece of shit!"

Depressed, he scolded his teammates again, but he could only scold in his heart. If he really wanted to scold, the postman might punch him in the face with an elbow.
