Chapter 80 Please, let me take your turn

Chapter 80 Please, let me take your turn (Long Chapter)

Facing the Wizards who had good perimeter defense, the Knicks' fast break failed. Howard Ellis controlled the ball outside, waiting for the inside to get into position and switch to a positional battle.

He Zhongqiu entered the frontcourt slowly, used this time to calm his breathing, and then entered the basket for the third time to take position.

Haywood defended at the line of the legal collision zone, preventing him from getting close to the basket. He turned around to block the position, then opened his hands to ask for the ball.

Ellis also wanted data. He just got an assist from He Zhongqiu and passed the ball in again this time.

He Zhongqiu carried Haywood behind him to receive the ball, and he was a little over two meters away from the basket. After receiving the ball, he did not make any fake moves, and immediately turned to the left, carried the defender Haywood with his left arm to block the position, raised his right hand high, swung his arm and shook his wrist while jumping, and threw the ball into the white basket on the backboard.

"Vote?" Barkley said in surprise.

"Sideways hook..."

Kenny Smith was equally surprised, but as soon as he shouted the hook, he immediately changed his words and said, "...No."

"Oh!"

The basketball hit the middle of the white basket's upper line and bounced into the basket.

"Bank shot?"

Kenny Smith said with a strange look on his face: "Wolverine's hitting action is too weird, like throwing a stone."

"He rarely uses the rebound shot, but he has used it a few times, and he always has this weird shooting motion," Barkley laughed.

Kenny Smith nodded and said, "That shot was really fast, even faster than Duncan's last shot."

"The technical moves he just made when he received the ball and shot were somewhat similar to Duncan's style. There were no unnecessary movements with his hands and feet. It was very simple. He should be imitating Duncan," Barkley analyzed.

"But his shooting motion was too weird, it wasn't a shooting motion at all. Why didn't he imitate Duncan in the finishing motion?" Kenny Smith asked curiously.

"Who knows? He is a weird person, with weird strength, weird confrontation ability, weird kung fu, weird shooting movements, and weird habits of beating people. He likes to slap people in the face," Barkley said.

"Pfft!"

Kenny Smith burst out laughing at the end, then tried to suppress his laughter and said, "Haywood can't defend Wolverine, Charles, I think you are right, let's replace Kwame Brown, maybe a miracle will happen?"

"Hehe..." Barkley laughed.

2:4, Wizards attack.

The Knicks played a zone defense and a three-two defense.

"brush!"

Jordan received the ball on the right wing and then made a mid-range jump shot, giving the Knicks no chance to double-team him. Alan Houston failed to keep up with the rhythm and made a shot.

Next, the two sides played several rounds from the outside. In the fifth minute of the first quarter, at 9:11, the Knicks led by two points and the Wizards called a timeout.

He Zhongqiu didn't have any chance to shoot afterwards. He only grabbed a backcourt rebound and stole the ball from Haywood once.

The Wizards head coach replaced Haywood. Haywood played for nearly five minutes, scored no points, only grabbed one rebound and had one turnover.

When Kwame Brown heard the head coach calling his name, he immediately looked unlucky and dejected.

He didn't want to face off against that scary Wolverine. Who knew if there would be a conflict? He didn't want his big teeth to be pulled out or his ribs to be broken.

Jordan was furious when he saw Kwame Brown looking listless.

This was the No. 1 pick he selected, the one he placed all his hopes on, but now it has become a handle for everyone to laugh at him.

"Be more energetic."

He scolded him angrily: "Look at Wolverine, he is an undrafted draft pick, but his momentum is a hundred times stronger than yours. Learn from him."

Kwame Brown trembled like a frightened quail, and his lowered brows and submissive look made Jordan even more depressed.

The timeout ends and the game resumes.

"Wolverine, teach that No. 1 pick a lesson," Spike Lee shouted from the sidelines.

"On Mid-Autumn Festival, he asked you to teach No. 5 a lesson. He is Kwame Brown, the No. 01 pick in ." Philip shouted.

He Zhongqiu glanced at No. 5 who was walking towards him, looking timid. Is this the top pick?

"OK."

He nodded toward Spike Lee.

Kwame Brown glanced at He Zhongqiu, and as soon as their eyes met, he was frightened by He Zhongqiu's sharp eyes like a knife and looked away.

"Alas! My reputation in this life has been ruined in his hands."

Seeing that Kwame Brown didn't even dare to look at Wolverine, how could he face him? Jordan couldn't help but sigh.

The Wizards attacked, Kwame Brown stood in the low post on the left wing, one step away from the left sideline of the paint area. He was not very active in getting the position and the ball, but others had no chances, so Jerry Stackhouse passed the ball.

Kwame Brown has mid-range shots, but they are not accurate. Eighty percent of his offense is in the paint area, all of which are attacks under the basket and close two-point shots.

After receiving the ball, He Zhongqiu immediately came up to him, forcing him to turn his back.

However, Kwame Brown's back-to-the-basket skills and footwork were average. When he dribbled the ball against He Zhongqiu, it was like hitting a stone wall. Instead, He Zhongqiu straightened his chest and burst out with a burst of energy in time, which made his footwork messy and he lost control of the ball.

"Bring it here."

He Zhongqiu took the opportunity to steal the ball and hit it outside, but it was picked up by the madman, who completed a steal.

He Zhongqiu followed the team's fast break and rushed down the middle, but Kwame Brown kept up with his speed and was only one step behind.

He entered the paint from the free throw line, and Laettner came over to block him from the left waist.

"what!"

The moment the two came into contact, Lightner screamed and fell out.

"You want to blackmail me? You are showing off your skills in front of Guan Gong!"

He was startled, but reacted very quickly. He staggered forward and fell directly on Lightner.

"Oh!"

The weight of more than 200 pounds, plus the impact force, made Lightner's face turn pale. He couldn't help but cry out in pain and almost suffocated.

"Ouch..."

He Zhongqiu turned over and lay next to Lightner, holding his left knee and screaming, pounding the floor from time to time. He looked like he was about to die from the pain.

"Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Wolverine?"

"It's over, it's over!"

Zhou Biao, Lin Cheng and others in the media seats behind the baseline became anxious, Philip was also anxious, and so were Don Cheney and Layden.

Lightner was dumbfounded. Did I suffer from temporary amnesia and was I just cruel to Wolverine?
The referee stopped the game, signaled the Knicks' team doctor to come on the court, then ran to Laettner and gave him a technical foul without waiting for him to get up.

In fact, he didn't see any excessive action from Laettner, at most he was faking a fall, but this was the Knicks' home court, and Wolverine was a fierce man who defeated the entire Pacers team, so a technical foul had to be given.

Otherwise, if Wolverine makes a fuss, he will also suffer. It is better to let Laettner suffer a little. Who told him to fake a fall and be a dirty bastard?

When Laettner saw the referee's gesture, he got up excitedly and shouted, "I didn't do anything to him. He was the one who cheated the whistle. Why should I get a technical foul?"

The referee was not lenient with Latner. After being yelled at, he gave the second T without hesitation, then pointed outside the court and sent Latner off the court.

"Clap clap clap..."

Madison Square Garden was filled with applause from the fans.

"Shet!"

Lightner was so angry that he cursed and glared at He Zhongqiu who was sitting on the floor. He wanted to say something harsh, but was afraid that Wolverine would get up and slap him, which would be a huge loss of face, so he had to grit his teeth and leave.

"idiot!"

Jordan was furious when Wolverine knocked out a key player at the beginning of the game.

"Little guy, when it comes to scamming people, I'm a professional. When it comes to acting, I'm also a professional. Can't I blackmail you to death?"

He Zhongqiu was satisfied. With the help of the team doctor, he slowly stood up and limped a few steps. The team doctor wanted to help him off the court, but he blinked at the doctor and waved his hand, saying, "I'll hold on for a while. I can still do it."

“What a great acting!”

The team doctor realized that Wolverine was really cheating on the whistle and quickly ran off the court.

"Wolverine, see you in Hollywood during the offseason."

Spike Lee on the sidelines gave He Zhongqiu a thumbs up and laughed with joy.

Several Hollywood stars nearby also noticed it and applauded happily.

Jordan laughed angrily and glared at He Zhongqiu fiercely. He swore in his heart that he would have a good fight tonight and let this rookie see the power of the God of Basketball.

The Wizards replaced Charles Oakley at the four position.

Jordan then stepped up his offense, but unfortunately his touch was average today. Under the Knicks' double-team defense, he missed three consecutive shots within three minutes. The Knicks took the opportunity to widen the score.

In the 8th minute of the first quarter, the madman was attacking with the ball on the left wing and called for a pick-and-roll by He Zhongqiu. After the pick-and-roll, he rushed into the penalty area with the ball, and He Zhongqiu, who had no shooting ability, followed behind him.

The Wizards quickly tightened their defense, and the madman broke through and faced the defense of Kwame Brown and Oakley, and made an urgent stop and a short jump shot.

"Snapped!"

Kwame Brown scored a goal by jumping high and slapping the ball away.

"very good."

Jordan, who was also returning to the penalty area, couldn't help but praise in his heart. He was indeed worthy of the person he had chosen.

But at this moment, his eyes narrowed. He Zhongqiu followed from behind, and when the madman's ball was fanned out, he quickly turned around and blocked Oakley behind him. At this time, the basketball fell and was grabbed by him.

The madman quickly withdrew from the penalty area, took the ball from He Zhongqiu, and passed it to Ellis at the top of the arc. Ellis quickly passed it to Alan Houston on the right wing.

The Wizards' defensive formation was quickly opened up, Jordan and other outside players quickly returned to defense, Oakley moved to the right waist position in the inside, Kwame Brown was in the low post on the left wing, and the paint area was empty.

The ball outside was passed back and forth and finally reached the hands of the madman on the left wing. The madman, who had just been blocked, stopped fighting and passed the ball down. He Zhongqiu received the ball in the low post on the left wing and played against Kwame Brown.

"Shoot, there's no time." Thibodeau shouted loudly on the sidelines.

I don’t know if He Zhongqiu understood or not. Anyway, the next moment, he suddenly turned around, with his left foot as the axis and his right foot on his left waist. As he jumped, he swung his right arm very quickly and flicked his wrist, throwing the ball towards the backboard.

The offensive technical movements were very fast, and the shot was even faster. Kwame Brown failed to block the shot in time and had to turn around and position himself to grab the rebound.

"Oh!"

The backboard hit the upper corner of the white basket and bounced into the basket.

“Haha, I got it right again!”

Both shots were successful, and He Zhongqiu couldn't help but cheer.

Barkley couldn't help but complain: "Alan Houston and Wolverine are really two extremes. One is as standard as a textbook, and the other is as disgusting as flicking snot."

"Pfft!"

In front of the TV, countless Americans couldn't help but burst into laughter when they heard Barkley describe He Zhongqiu's shooting action in this way.

Kenny Smith also laughed his ass off, but warned, "Charles, if Wolverine sees our show, do you think he'll come looking for you?"

"Am I afraid of him?"

Barkley showed off his biceps and said in no uncertain terms: "I, Sir Charles, have been through hundreds of battles. Why would I be afraid of a rookie?"

"OK, Charles, I'll arrange a fight for you and let you compete with Wolverine." Kenny Smith cheered.

"Kenny, are you crazy? Do you want me to die?" Barkley said anxiously and angrily.

"Ha ha……"

Kenny Smith burst into laughter, and so did Barkley. The two of them laughed so hard that they fell on the live broadcast booth.

At Madison Square Garden, Don Cheney originally planned to replace He Zhongqiu, but when he saw that he made another nearly two-point shot, he let him continue playing.

Jordan finally made a shot, narrowing the score to 6 points.

In the 10th minute of the first quarter, the Knicks attacked.

Alan Houston broke through with the ball and rushed into the paint area from the right waist area. He was fiercely attacked by Oakley, Jordan and Kwame Brown on the right front side of the basket. He forced a shot, but was slapped out by Oakley.

He Zhongqiu moved one step up and to the left and received the ball at the right waist position.

At this time, Oakley and Kwame Brown both returned to the basket, and Jordan pounced on him ferociously.

"kill!"

Faced with the tight defense, He Zhongqiu shouted in his heart.

His left hand was like an eagle's claw, grabbing the ball tightly. The basketball was severely deformed and almost burst by him.

He took a big step, then a small step, and waved his arms, like an eagle spreading its wings, and his body rose three feet high.

At this moment, his master's aura was infinitely concentrated and infinitely elevated, just like a predatory eagle flying in the Tianyuan.

At this moment, almost everyone in Madison Square Garden stopped breathing, and everyone's eyes were focused on the person flying in the sky.

As an inside player, Oakley, who averaged only 0.3 blocks per game, only regretted that he could not jump, otherwise he would definitely give this rookie a block.

If Wolverine didn't have destructive-level combat power, he would definitely let this rookie taste his big elbow today.

At this moment, facing Wolverine who was flying like a dragon and looking like an eagle, he felt powerless and felt that he was too insignificant.

Kwame Brown's mind went blank. His momentum was completely suppressed by He Zhongqiu who pounced from the air. He even forgot to jump.

The opponent jumped too high, and in order to avoid his knee from seriously injuring the opponent's chest, He Zhongqiu spread his legs.

"boom!"

The next moment, an explosive sound of the rim popping was heard from a left-handed tomahawk dunk.

"Oh ho!"

Like a volcano erupting, Madison Square Garden fell into a frenzy.

"Tomahawk dunk! Wolverine completed a powerful tomahawk dunk..." Barkley shouted excitedly.

Kenny Smith shouted excitedly: "Dunk! This is a gift from Wolverine to No. 1 pick Kwame Brown. I hope he can handle it."

Kwame Brown was lying on the floor, gasping for breath, his chest heaving up and down, his eyes full of confusion and emptiness.

"Kwame, are you okay?" Jordan rushed over and shouted.

The noise in Madison Square Garden was too loud. Kwame Brown couldn't hear what Jordan was shouting. He moved his eyes and said, "I want to leave the court. Please, please let me go..."

Jordan knelt down and put his ear close to Brown's mouth so that he could hear what he was saying.

"You...you, you bastard! A wimp! You you..."

He was so angry that he didn't know what to say. A dunk actually broke Kwame Brown's spirit. Why is this kid so disappointing?
In the end, the Knicks won the game at home.

After this dunk, the Knicks' momentum exploded, while the Wizards' morale dropped after Kwame Brown left the game. After all, Jordan is old, and he only scored 26 points with his best effort and failed to pull the game back.

贺中秋打了34分钟,打破了自己的单场上场时间,13投10中,5罚3中,轰下了23分10篮板1助攻3抢断3盖帽3失误5犯规。

Alan Houston also scored 22 points, but He Zhongqiu's statistics were better. Not only did he score 20+10, but his defensive statistics were also better. Later, the league officially announced that he won the honor of the best player of the game.

He Zhongqiu's mouth was split to the back of his head. It was the first time he scored 20+, the first time he had double-digit rebounds, the first time he scored 20+10, the first time he was named the best player of the game, and he created many personal firsts today.

By the way, there is another first. The TNT reporter is coming. He will be interviewed live after the game by a television media for the first time, and it will be broadcast live across the United States.

"Hey Wolverine, hello, I'm Yuna Mays from TNT, you can call me Yuna, or Beauty."

The reporter was a white beauty with waist-length wavy burgundy hair. She smiled and stretched out her right hand to him.

"Haha, hello, beautiful Yuna."

He Zhongqiu held the other person's soft little hand, stroked his palm with his fingers a few times, and then let go.

"This chick is hitting on me."

Similar things have happened to him many times. A man like him who is full of energy and spirit is not narcissistic, but really very attractive.

There are so many female gangsters, female bosses, and female celebrities who are greedy for his body. If he didn't have such strong martial arts skills, they might have become his concubines long ago.

Sure enough, after the interview, the beautiful reporter shook hands with him and said goodbye, and in his hand there was a note smelling of perfume.

He received several such notes after the last home game. Some were from female fans who came to watch the game, and some were from cheerleaders. On them were phone numbers and even hotel room numbers.

Unfortunately, after two or three years in the Beijing circle and seeing all kinds of beauties, he has high requirements for women. None of the women who passed notes to him could meet his requirements, including the girl in front of him.

An hour later, the post-match press conference was held.

There are no fewer reporters on the Wizards side than on the Knicks side, and maybe even more.

"Michael, I just got a piece of news from inside the Knicks," said a reporter from the New York Times.

"uh-huh."

Jordan had a bad feeling.

The reporter smiled and said, "Just before the game, you led Oakley and Ewing into the home team's locker room..."

"Oh!"

The reporters at the scene immediately became excited.

"Damn it, I knew it. I knew it."

Jordan cursed in his heart. He quickly interrupted the reporter and said, "NONONO, we are visiting, not intruding, OK?"

The reporter laughed and said, "But in fact, because of your trespassing, Wolverine regarded it as a provocation and kicked you out."

"Oh ho!"

This was a big revelation, and the media reporters at the scene screamed in excitement.

Everyone wants to see with their own eyes the embarrassing scene of the basketball god being kicked out of the locker room by a rookie. If they don’t have the chance to see it, they can comfort themselves by imagining it in their minds.

The reporter continued, "Amid the roar of Wolverine, everyone, including you, Michael Jordan, Oakley, and Ewing, fled the locker room in a panic, not daring to stay for a moment."

"Oh ho!"

"Ha ha!"

The media's hype has intensified.

Jordan's face darkened and he was very unhappy, but he still had to explain: "Ladies and gentlemen, we left the locker room first to avoid misunderstanding.

In fact, we had no conflicts with Wolverine. Patrick and Charles were both Knicks legends. After the misunderstanding was resolved, he immediately invited us into the locker room. "

"Ha ha……"

The reporters all laughed.

Everyone could hear the hidden meaning in Jordan's words: Yes, we were driven out by Wolverine, I just didn't want to admit it.

 I received a notice that the book will be on the shelves on Friday, at midnight on the 26th. I will continue to update today, with updates. I hope everyone will support the subscription on Friday, especially the first order, please!
