Chapter 653: You Are Strong, You Are Strong!
O'Neal's peak was widely believed by fans to be around the Lakers around 2000.
There is no doubt that O'Neal at that stage was the most dominant period in terms of points per game and rebounds, as well as attendance and performance.
But the fact that O'Neill was at his peak in 2000 does not mean that O'Neill was weak in '98.
In fact, at this time, O'Neill has grown into the most dominant center in the league. He is recognized as the most valuable super center in the league.
The young Ben Wallace was no match for O'Neill, and this was actually expected by Martial Arts for a long time.
As the Lakers began to retreat, the Timberwolves' players were still very calm and calm, and the Sharks' violent dunk just now did not have any impact on the Timberwolves' players, and their mentality was as calm as ever.
The Timberwolves' attack still found the martial arts standing in the right elbow area. Although Takemichi is the kind of person who can attack from any position on the court, his offensive dessert area is in the right half.
Compared to the success rate of the right half, the efficiency of Budo's attack from the left is weaker.
This is a shortcoming that cannot be regarded as a shortcoming, and the trainers in the Timberwolves team have also reminded Martial Arts, and in private, Martial Arts is indeed strengthening its training in weak areas, but when it comes to the game on the court, Martial Arts will still choose to receive the ball in the right area most of the time.
With the basketball in hand, Wu Dao strode towards the right side of the sweep and tentative step, and then under the gaze of Rick Fox, his right hand quickly dropped the ball, and the next moment of resetting his footsteps, Wu Dao continued to dribble under his crotch, and then the cold suspension dribble scissor step was shaky.
Before Rick Fox could react, Takeshi had already accelerated the ball, leaving the stunned Rick Fox behind.
Martial Arts' passing was too fast and too sudden, and before the Lakers' interior could react, Martial Arts had already hit the basket with one hand.
By the time O'Neill noticed the figure of Wu Dao and quickly stepped forward to make up for the defense, it was already too late.
Under O'Neal's blocking action, Wu Dao, who entered the basket, "raised his hand to burn the sky", and after confronting O'Neal in the air, he lightly threw the basketball in his hand in the direction of the basket.
"Huh!" At the same time as Martial Arts fell back to the ground, the basketball also fell into the net with a crisp sound.
O'Neal, who fell back to the ground, saw the martial arts that landed steadily after the layup in front of him, and he couldn't help but glance at the martial arts a few more times.
Martial arts' physical confrontation ability is much better than O'Neal's imagination, O'Neal originally thought that Martial Arts would be overturned by the people on his own strength, even if he was lucky enough to send the ball to the basket, Martial Arts would make a big mess in front of the audience all over the United States.
But I didn't expect that Martial Arts not only easily sent the ball into the basket, but even after such a physical confrontation, Martial Arts' posture and movement deformation were very small.
I am not afraid that the opponent can suddenly throw, but I am afraid that the opponent can not only throw suddenly, but also be able to eat physical confrontation.
In the folk, there are a lot of people who can reproduce Jordan and Kobe's set of actions, and there are many, many people who can shoot three-point shots as accurately as Curry.
In terms of technical actions alone, many professions in China "look" even worse than those folk gods.
But why are those folk gods unable to step onto the professional stage?
Because of the physical confrontation.
Some professional players look rough because they can only avoid mistakes with such rough technical moves in high-intensity confrontations.
Don't look at the beautiful skills of some folk gods, as soon as they are confronted, the technical actions will be completely deformed.
The really strong people are the players who can maintain a certain quality of technical movements under high-intensity physical confrontation.
And martial arts is that kind of person, coordination and confrontation ability are sometimes much more important than those so-called skills in the NBA.
In the stands, some Timberwolves fans erupted in cheers after seeing Takemichi score comfortably on O'Neal's head.
O'Neill is one of the top centers in the league today, and Martial Arts can "stroll" on O'Neal's head, which shows the terrifying strength of Martial Arts.
Even if Martial Arts is not a player in the same position as O'Neill at this moment, some fans will subconsciously compare Martial Arts with O'Neal.
In this world, no matter what field it is, there are combat power fans.
And intuitively, O'Neill "seems" that he can't suppress martial arts.
The offense and defense alternated, and the Lakers quickly launched a counterattack.
O'Neal has never been the kind of person who is willing to suffer, and if he is eaten by Wu Daoqiang, he will also be "eaten" back from the heads of Timberwolves players.
This time, instead of continuing to crouch on the side of the basket, O'Neal quickly pulled up and came to the left side of the free throw line.
Both Wallace and Marbury noticed O'Neal's movements, and thought O'Neal was trying to give Fisher a high post cover so he could turn around and cut to the basket.
But what was unexpected was that O'Neal, who was in the middle distance, actually got a quick body and carried the basket to the position.
“?”
"Catch the ball in that kind of place?"
O'Neal was some distance from the basket, and Tom and Ben Wallace noticed O'Neal's movement and neither chose to continue in pursuit.
As we all know, O'Neal didn't have a mid-range shot, and O'Neal who received the ball in that position was not at all to fear.
Wallace waited until O'Neal did get the basketball before leaning in, his hands against O'Neal's back, and the center of gravity was pressed very low, so that the opponent could exert his strength at the same time, but also to be able to react to O'Neal's breakthrough in time.
"Bang!!"
O'Neal hit hard back. Wallace tried his best but was still pushed back by O'Neill, and the young man really couldn't bear O'Neill's terrifying power.
Tom saw that O'Neal seemed to be planning to sit and beat Wallace, and he didn't dare to let O'Neal play like this, so he hurriedly stepped forward to make a steal.
But at this moment, O'Neill made an offensive choice that surprised everyone.
O'Neal, who had seen a blow ball back hit, suddenly put the ball in front of his chest with both hands, and under Wallace's defense, he suddenly turned his back and turned over and jumped out.
A very "Jordan"-style offensive choice actually appeared on O'Neal, which made everyone stunned.
"!!Shh
But when the sound of the basketball swiping into the net sounded, the stunned fans immediately cheered in surprise.
In the audience's impression, O'Neal, a "rough man" who "relies on his body", should not have such an operation, and it is precisely because of such a stereotype in the audience's mind that when O'Neal scores, the audience will feel so surprised.
O'Neal, who scored the goal, was also quite satisfied with his performance, shaking his head and running towards the Lakers halfcourt, showing quite happiness.
"You may not believe it, I used to play as a defender."
"You should be glad that if I hadn't changed my position later, I would have personally shot you up."
"You will, and so will I!"
While the Lakers were back on guard, Wudao was also running slowly towards the frontcourt, and O'Neal smiled and asked Wudao to talk to and demonstrate when he passed by Wudao.
O'Neill's physical excellence tends to overlook his delicate technique.
It's like a lot of ball blindness, as soon as Yao Ming is mentioned, he will say, "226 is just tall height." ”
In fact, whether it is Yao Ming or O'Neal, strong physical talent is their capital, but what pushes their careers to this height must be the result of a combination of body and technology.
Both are indispensable.
O'Neill's operation is more of a demonstration, barely a "response" to the goal that Wu Dao just scored.
"Huh."
O'Neill, a fat man, made Martial Arts laugh, and it was quite interesting to play against an opponent with such a character.
Between offense and defense, the Timberwolves attacked again. Marbury saw that the martial arts felt still excellent today, and planned to let the martial arts fight more when the martial arts hand was hot.
The game during this period of time is like this, every time Takeshi starts to score consecutive goals, Marbury will keep feeding the ball to Takemi, until Takeshi appears to hit the iron or take the initiative to play the ball, Marbury will think about finding other offensive points to add some "changes" to the Timberwolves' offense.
Today's ball was the same, after Marbury got close to the top of the arc, he saw Fisher's seriousness, and he didn't hesitate, and quickly gave the ball to Wudao.
After taking the ball, when Wu Dao grabbed the ball with his right hand and pulled it behind him, he used his right foot as the pivot foot, stepped on the right front with his left foot, and at the same time turned slightly sideways, he also supported the ball protector and pressed against Rick Fox's body.
At the same time as the ball fell on the right side, Martial Arts' body was also leaning on Rick Fox's body, and just when Rick Fox thought that Martial Arts would accelerate and force himself, the basketball in Martial Arts' hand suddenly crossed Martial Arts' crotch and smashed on the floor under Rick Fox's crotch, and passed out to the inside.
“?!”
Turning back in a hurry, Rick Fox happened to see that the basketball coming from the hands of Martial Arts had already reached the hands of Garnett in the middle distance.
Garnett, who received the ball with the basket on his back, quickly swept the ball frame like a small forward, and the next moment when he exploded towards his right side, Garnett directly turned around with a dexterous back, past Campbell, who was defending him, and then Garnett turned into the paint area, took a big stride in the direction of the basket, and then made a quick layup with a low hand.
The deft basket movement easily tore apart Campbell's defense and added another goal to the Timberwolves.
"I've played defenders before!"
After the goal, Garnett glanced at O'Neal, who was late, and said with a smile and mocking.
It turned out that what O'Neill said to Wu Dao just now was also heard by Garnett. O'Neal's rough back-to-the-shoulder rollover jumper was too much for Garnett.
He wants to "teach" O'Neill what delicate technique is!
"Tsk!"
Hearing this, O'Neill smashed his mouth and glanced at Garnett with some unpleasantness.
Soon, the Lakers launched a counterattack, and Fisher still planned to find O'Neal as an offensive point, but the Timberwolves were keeping an eye on it this round, and the risk of passing the ball was not small. And Marbury's defensive pressure was strong, and Fisher could only play the ball to Eddie Jones, who was relatively empty on the side.
"Little Kobe" took the ball and played very decisively in the face of Tom's defense, after lifting the ball a false action, the ball with his left hand quickly accelerated and rushed, relying on his terrifying physical fitness, Eddie Jones almost fell to the floor, but it was quickly passing through Tom's side.
"Lightspeed" into the basket under the Eddie Jones into the basket, a counter-basket hooked the ball to the basket, the basketball grazed the rebound, but it rubbed to the basket, failed to fall into the net.
As soon as the rebound appeared, Garnett and Wallace quickly stuck left and right, and then jumped to grab the rebound, but just as Garnett was about to grab the ball in his hand, O'Neal's loud cheers exploded in the ears of the two.
In the next second, Garnett and Wallace both felt the huge power coming from behind them, and the next second, O'Neal's figure appeared from behind the two, squeezed the two of them away, grabbed the ball with both hands and dunked the ball directly into the basket.
"Bang Dang!!"
A loud noise sounded in the middle of the court, and the basketball hoop seemed to be overwhelmed and vibrated violently.
O'Neal fell from the sky, roared at Wallace and Garnett, slammed his chest, and showed off the biceps muscles of his arms under the camera lenses of reporters near the baseline.
The terrifying physical fitness shocked the fans, and there were amazing cheers from the stands.
Strong as a monster.
The fans looked at O'Neal who was showing off his power on the field, and there was only one thought in their hearts. But the cheers of the audience in the arena soon turned into exclamations.
Garnett, who was dunked by O'Neal's basket, didn't want to see O'Neal's arrogant appearance after scoring, and quickly took the ball to the bottom line and sent it quickly.
At the same time as the audience exclaimed, the basketball had already come to the hands of Wu Dao, and after the basketball was started, Wu Dao also quickly accelerated and rushed towards the Lakers half.
Wu Dao's quick down, and soon got Marbury's response.
At the same time, the Lakers' Rick Fox and Fisher also noticed Takemi's movements, and the two quickly chased after Takemi.
Rick Fox and Fisher chased after them in time, and when Takeshi crossed the middle line, the two were already stuck behind Takemi, and Rick Fox went around in front of Takemichi non-stop, and finally went around to Takemichi when Takeshi was approaching the free throw line.
Smoothly form a pinch.
Seeing this scene, Wu Dao's speed suddenly decreased, and it seemed that he was going to give up the fast attack, and as soon as he turned the direction of the ball, he left the paint area from the left side, as if he was planning to organize the defense well.
And the movements of the martial arts also made Rick Fox and Fisher relax.
Fisher looked at Marbury as he followed, and guarded up, while Rick Fox chased after Takemichi and walked away from the paint area.
But when Wudao slowly marched to the middle distance with the ball, as Rick Fox followed up, Wudao, who was holding the ball, suddenly changed his rhythm, turned around at high speed, and left Rick Fox behind him with an acceleration.
Rick Fox only felt a dark shadow flashing around him, and when he turned around, he saw Martial Arts grabbing the ball with one arm and pouring the ball into the basket fiercely.
