Chapter 516: Stockton's Caress

What the hell is this dirty card item?

That's [Stockton's Caress Card], of course!

Speaking of Stockton, we have to talk about Malone, the top player among the players in the 90s. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At that time, Malone relied on iron knees and iron elbows to run rampant in the alliance, the ribs of the big dream, the ** of Horry, the loose front teeth of the shark, the shoulders of Barkley like meat sauce, the dense 40 stitches of the head of the smiling assassin, and the pulse of the admiral that almost stopped...... The remnants of the "revolutionary victories" on these superstars are all telling of Ma Long's heroic martial arts.

However, when Malone met Rodman, he had a kind of depression that he had the strength but could not make out.

In the 1998 finals, when the other eight players and the three referees on the field had already run to the front court to start a new offensive and defensive confrontation, Rodman and Malone were still lying in the backcourt, as intimately entangled as two ivy vines. Looking at the two of them so classic and retro and unrestrained and enthusiastic "69 style", they can really shame the river crab and the angry river crab.

Whether it is playing black hands or playing basketball, Malone takes the masculine route of wide open and closed, while Rodman can always make a thousand pounds in four or two, and a few seemingly frivolous small actions are enough to make Ma Long's fierceness like a mud cow into the sea without a trace.

After being dizzy by Rodman's small actions, Malone began to complain to the referee frequently like a resentful woman that Rodman was too mean.

But what he didn't expect was that Rodman swept away his usual hippie look and replaced it with a solemn and serious face: "Speaking of meanness, his teammate Stockton is the most despicable and lowly person I've ever met." ”

Being able to make the mantle disciples taught by "Mr. Despicable" Lambir and "Mr. Dirty" Rick Mahon so awe-inspiring, Stockton's status as a grandmaster in the NBA's "Black Hand Dang" can be seen from this.

In Rodman's view, Stockton is the most despicable and hypocritical in the NBA.

"If you were to survey all the players in the NBA and ask them who is the dirtiest defender in the NBA? Guess what they would answer? They would probably say John Stockton, but no one would guess it was him," he wrote. Because Stockton always pretends to be a decent gentleman. ”

After joining the NBA from Stockton, his talent for small maneuvers in the undercut was discovered earlier than his talent in pick-and-roll and assists. Top your knees, step on your feet, kick your ankles...... He is naturally good at all the tricks that these little men can play, but what he is best at is "caressing" the lower body of his opponents, especially the big players.

It is said that after Rodman transferred from the Pistons to the Spurs, he thought that his cultivation had already entered the house, but it was not until he met Stockton in the first round of the playoffs in 1994 that he understood what it meant to have a mountain outside the mountain.

The Spurs beat the Jazz in the first game, but from the second game onwards, Rodman began to discover how good Stockton was.

When you grab a rebound, you pick a rebound on top and he picks a "peach" below, which makes you suffer unspeakably, and when you play a pick-and-roll, Stockton either sneaks an elbow under Rodman's armpit or lifts his iron knee against Rodman's crotch.

What makes Rodman most angry is that Stockton always looks pitiful.

When Rodman retaliated with a little sinister move, Stockton immediately flew out with a scream. In fact, Stockton's move has conquered too many fake wrestling kings, and even the grandmaster Divac was impressed: "Who said I deserve an Oscar? Stockton is the real acting school." ”

I have to say that at that time, Rodman's psychological maturity and basic skills in playing small movements were not hot enough, so that after being bullied by Stockton again and again, Rodman's brain began to heat up like a stunned young man.

In another defensive pick-and-roll, Rodman, who was determined to publicly take revenge on Stockton, directly arched him with a butt, and the referee immediately blew the whistle to eject Rodman and suspend him for one game, which directly led to the Jazz eliminating the Spurs 3-1.

It's a classic loss and a loss!

However, it was precisely with this lesson that Rodman really ushered in his own maturity after that.

In 1997 and 98, no matter how Marlon provoked, Rodman grinned and didn't care, but finally provoked Malone to the point where he had nowhere to vent.

The four villains of the Jordan era, Stockton, Malone, Oakley, and Ranbir.

The latter three are all notorious, Malone's iron elbows, Ranbier's love to find fault and fight, and Oakley's movements are fierce and rude.

The skinny Stockton, with his caresses, also managed to be shortlisted as one of the four villains!

There's a good saying.

Okoli is extremely vicious, Ranbir is vicious, Malone does all kinds of evil, and Lao Si is full of evil!

There was a lot of small action, and in the 90s players anonymously voted who was the dirtiest player to play in the NBA, Stockton was honorably ranked first.

Now, Xiao Ran is going to buy this prop card!

[Stockton's caressing card], worth 8.88 million worship points.

It's definitely not cheap, it can be said to be very expensive, this game, Xiao Ran doesn't plan to earn any worship value.

After exchanging [Stockton's Caress Card], Xiao Ran said directly to the rescue captain: "I won't go to the hospital, help me bandage it well." ”

The rescue captain said, "But if the wound is infected, it will be a lot more troublesome to deal with." ”

"Then you can't be saved?" Xiao Ran said.

"Uh...... It's not, okay, I'll bandage you, be careful yourself. ”

Vanderwich also asked worriedly, "Xiao, okay?"

"Don't worry, no problem. ”

Xiao Ran looked at his teammates who had been beaten by the Cavaliers, and nodded.

The situation on the court is now completely controlled by the Cavaliers, from offense to defense, the lack of Xiao Ran's Nets is fully behind, on the offensive end, no one can effectively impact the Cavaliers' defensive weapons, and the threat to rebounds is also very small, every shot seems so reluctant, when defending, the Cavaliers' Big Three have no obstacles, and the offense has been successful repeatedly, it can be said that for the Cavaliers' defense, the Nets all depend on luck! If you are lucky, the Cavaliers don't hit, it can be considered a defensive success, and in terms of rebounding, the Nets also have a big disadvantage, within a few minutes of Xiao Ran's treatment off the court, James has successfully won 3 rebounds!

At this time, there are still more than a minute left in the first quarter, but the Nets are already 17:29, trailing by 12 points!

Such a large point difference is definitely the biggest point difference for the Nets since the start of the game.

The audience also felt that the Cavaliers had won this game!
