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

The CCTV Sports Department still attaches great importance to this all-star live broadcast, but it can't find a commentator who knows more about the NBA, so it can only pull the veteran Song Shixiong out, and push the novice Xu Jicheng out to form a young and old combination.

Xu Jicheng only became CCTV's basketball consultant in 92, and his qualifications are very shallow, but he is really one of the few people in CCTV who knows anything about the NBA.

But his unit is Xinhua News Agency, after graduating from college in 86, he was assigned to the Xinhua News Agency's sports department, is a Xinhua News Agency reporter, specializing in covering basketball, and was hired as a CCTV basketball consultant last year.

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

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "Teacher 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 Jordan, Jordan is the 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 data, and it can be said that Zhou Quan has won the steal king this season. ”

"3.3 times?"

Song Shixiong was really surprised, he is not a professional basketball commentator, but he is also familiar with basketball, and this data is really fierce.

"Yes, this is the data provided by Zhang Liang's guidance. And he is by far the NBA's assist leader, averaging 13.8 per game, and the second place is his opponent John Stockton in this All-Star game, averaging 12 assists per game. Xu Jicheng said again.

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

Xu Jicheng added: "In addition, Zhou Quan is currently the fifth in the NBA league MVP rankings, which means that so far, he is the fifth person with the best performance in the league this season. It's very impressive, he's only in his second season. ”

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

As the ace of the commentator of the CCTV Sports Department, the name of the American men's basketball team in the Olympic Games last year made the dream team known, allowing the world to see the level of the NBA, including him.

At that time, when he saw Jordan and them playing, he had a sense of shock, it turned out that basketball could still be played like this, and he could still fly in the sky to play.

He knew that eleven of the dream team were from the NBA and were the strongest stars in the NBA, and now, Zhou Quan was actually one of the five best performers in the NBA, that is to say, the group of dream teams that shocked him actually had many people who did not perform as well as Zhou Quan, which immediately shocked him.

……

Delta Center Arena, West Again Attack, Glider Left in the Backcourt to Pick Up.

He and Jordan are absolute opponents, and they don't know what Jordan wants to target Zhou Quan, but just now at the beginning, Barkley and the postman lost their own people to trap Zhou Quan, which is completely inconsistent with the atmosphere of the All-Star, so he understands a little that Jordan is likely to pull Barkley and them to deal with Zhou Quan.

But he is an all-star in the West, and it is impossible for him to help Zhou Quan, so he can only be invisible and do his job.

With a glider in the backcourt, Zhou Quan was of course reluctant to let the ball pass to Drexler, so he didn't interfere anymore and let John Stockton catch the ball.

Now there is only one teammate O'Neal around, the other three are traitors, plus five people in the West, they have to play two or eight, and if they want to play, they can't let go of the opportunity on the defensive end.

John Stockton held the ball forward, Zhou Quan was in front and defended and retreated, without the intention of pressing, kept retreating, and retreated past the halfway line.

Seeing the postman looking at him from the left flank, John Stockton changed direction to the left, wanting to bypass Zhou Quan in front and go to the left flank.

He was relieved because he was two meters away from Zhou Quan.

"What?"

But at this moment, Zhou Quan took a big step with his right foot, his upper body leaned forward sharply, and while he stepped up, he stabbed his ball with his right hand, and his action was very sudden, obviously there was a distance of two meters between the two, but this moment was gone.

"Bu!"

Zhou Quan's stabbing was fast and accurate, John Stockton was changing direction to the left, and before he could make a move to protect the ball, the ball was poked off and rolled across the halfway line, and he hurriedly turned around to grab the ball.

"The ball is broken!" Zhang Li yelled excitedly.

At this time, Zhou Quan was in a posture of leaning forward sharply, striding forward, with his right foot in front and his left foot behind, it was not easy to exert force, but he still forcibly exerted his strength, rubbed his left (back) foot violently, and his hands were on the ground to borrow strength, and he pounced like a tiger.

This tiger-like action puts his center of gravity on his upper body, forcing his feet to be quick and continuous

Kick forward a little so that you don't fall to the ground.

However, he couldn't catch up with John Stockton, he immediately kicked his feet violently, jumped forward, pounced past the opponent, flew more than two meters away, and slammed on the floor, grabbing the ball first.

"Got the ball!" Zhang Li yelled excitedly again.

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

"Ball, give it to me."

"Give it to me."

Jordan, Pippen, and Larry Johnson hurriedly rushed over.

Zhou Quan was lying on the floor, his hands smashed the ball, and the strength of Stockton on it was very small, although his hands were on the ball, he couldn't grab it at all.

With his strength, he could have forced the ball out, but he didn't do that, he didn't want to pass to Jordan and the other three guys, the purpose was to create a scrum, and then let O'Neal get the ball when he jumped the ball.

Jordan was in a hurry when he saw it, and he was about to grab the ball, but Zhou Quan dunked the ball, and he couldn't grab it for a while, when the referee's whistle sounded, and he fought for the ball.

"Why don't you give it to me?" Jordan asked angrily.

"Old fellow, don't I know your little tricks?" Zhou Quan stood up and said in Michael Jordan's ear.

Jordan snorted, turned around and left.

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

"I'll pass you back again."

Next, jumping the ball in the middle circle, Zhou Quan ran to O'Neill's side first, communicated with him, and then stood on the middle circle.

"Smack!"

Jumping ball, Zhou Quan is taller than Stockton, has a longer arm span, jumps faster and higher, reacts faster, there is no suspense, he touches the ball first, flicks the ball to O'Neal in the air, and the ball flies over accurately.

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

"Damn sharks! Follow that bastard of Iron Fist, wait and see, you're in for a treat. Jordan scolded.

As soon as Zhou Quan received the ball, he immediately forcibly knocked away Stockton in front, and after bursting over, he accelerated and rushed to the basket with the ball.

According to the plan, Barkley and Postman Malone disregarded their own people and rushed to establish a defensive line at the free throw line, and the hedged Zhou Quan formed a closing trend.

Their purpose is to force Zhou Quan to pass the ball to Jordan and not give Zhou Quan a chance to attack.

Larry Johnson and Pippen were completely empty and in very good positions, at this time, they reached out to Zhou Quan from both wings to get the ball diagonally.

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

Barkley and the Postman were too late to pounce, so they could only defend with their eyes.

The glider, which was just one step away, didn't have the idea of coming over to help the defense, so he let Zhou Quan make a move.

Jordan's hand was a little itchy, and he wanted to rush over and slap Zhou Quan.

"Brush!"

There was a splash and a three-point shot.

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

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

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

The west will attack again.

Stockton held the ball across the halfway line, and this time his attitude was more cautious, even if Zhou Quan in front of him was two meters away from him, he didn't dare to be careless.

He tried to push to the top of the arc, but Zhou Quan didn't take a step back, and immediately forced it, which made him understand that Zhou Quan didn't plan to let him get close to the top of the arc, and on the postman's side, Larry Johnson took a roundabout, and he was not good at passing the ball from a long distance, so he immediately raised his hand and asked for the postman's block in the middle line.

Zhou Quan knew very well that he couldn't let Stockton get close to the top of the arc, or that he didn't want the other party to get close to the postman, because the postman was opposite Larry Johnson, a short man, as long as the ball was handed to the postman, and the postman singled out that short, there would be a mismatch advantage.

So if he keeps Stockton away 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 broken, which is why he is so far away and strengthens his defense.

At this time, the postman came to Zhou Quan's right hand side from the left wing, his weight, physique, and strength are the best wall, he can't squeeze it, and he is slow to go around, if he changes defenses, let him misplace the single point guard, the advantage is too great.

At the same time, he is good at mid-range shooting and is the best person to play blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, and he complements Stockton well.

At this time, Stockton bypassed behind the postman, ready to burst between the postman and Larry Johnson, but at this moment, Zhou Quan made a very quick turn around the postman, blocked in front of him again, and stabbed his ball off with a big hand.

The next moment, the four of them rushed together, among which Zhou Quan, who poked the ball, was the most prepared and seized the opportunity.

Jordan, who was not far away, also hurriedly rushed over to grab the ball, but at this time, Zhou Quan had already grabbed the ball in his hands, dunked the ball with both hands, turned around suddenly, shook off the hands on it, and then dribbled back a step, ignoring Jordan's asking for the ball, bypassing Larry Johnson, and began to move forward quickly.

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

"It should only be counted twice, and the second time will not be counted." Zhang said reasonably.

The two of them are only front-line interviews this time, not commentators, and only when the camera switches to them, will they introduce the situation on the scene.

At this time, Zhou Quan attacked the right wing of the front court, held the ball diagonally and inserted it into the basket, while Jordan quickly got down from the middle and was reaching out to him for the ball.

Neither Larry Johnson nor John Stockton was as fast as him, and the fastest Stockton was two meters away from him, in which case he couldn't pass the ball, and he ignored Jordan and rushed through the right waist position in one step and took off directly.

"This bastard!"

Jordan cursed as he rushed out of the rim from under the basket.

After several rounds of play, he hadn't touched the ball yet, which made him feel like he was back to his first All-Star scene, isolated by a group of assassins.

He felt very aggrieved, and he had clearly discussed that he wanted to isolate that bastard together, why were they isolated?

"Bang!"

The next moment, Zhou Quan flew to the basket and came to dunk with a change of hands under his crotch, which once again received a round of warm applause.

At 9:0, the Western Conference All-Stars had not yet scored, 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, which was the one with the most shining performance, and the beginning was called the star of the stars.

"Like, Michael Jordan, Pippen, Barkley, the three of them haven't touched the ball yet?" On the ESPN commentary bench, Howardton asked uncertainly.

"It's either like, or I haven't touched the ball."

Winston couldn't help but laugh: "Iron Fist made three steals in a row, and the second time should also be counted, he played two fast breaks, gave O'Neal an assist, and the two dominated the attack in the East." ”

David Stern sat on the sidelines and shook his head a little helplessly, but he would not interfere, and whoever has the ability to do things on the field will be in the limelight.

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

He is not worried about Zhou Quan snatching Jordan's position, in terms of personal strength, Jordan is enough to crush Zhou Quan, and at the same time in terms of influence, because Zhou Quan is Chinese, in the United States, in the entire Western world, there is a natural weakness in identity, which cannot be changed, even if it is changed to an American nationality, it cannot be changed.

But this All-Star start made him want to send Zhou Quan to the West again, but Zhou Quan is only in his second season and has two years on his contract, so he will have a chance to play at least next season.

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

"I'm not afraid of competition."

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

"Let's make an appointment when everyone has time."

Roberts said, and Christina Yeri smiled and nodded.

After the timeout, there were no substitutions on either side, after all, this was the beginning of the game, and it was not suitable to replace the starters.

The west then attacked, and the backcourt sideline served.

Stockton suffered losses at the hands of Zhou Quan one after another, losing face continuously, and was not in a good mood, so he moved forward with the ball with a cold face.

The first few times, Zhou Quan didn't press in the backfield, and only pressed after the halfway line, but this time he decided to be unexpected.

"What?"

John Stockton dribbled downward, and in the next moment, he saw Zhou Quan grab it with a step and poke it with his big hand, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"Smack!"

In the next moment, when the basketball bounced off the floor but had not yet fallen into Stockton's hands, Zhou Quan's big hand was inserted in time, and then pulled it back.

"Oh, broken ball, broken ball again!"

On the ESPN commentary seat, Larry Winston immediately shouted.

"Squeak!"

Zhou Quan rushed forward with force at his feet, swept past Stockton, who was directly hung to the ground by him, and he killed under the basket a few meters away.

Barkley entered the court after serving, and then hurriedly ran to Zhou Quan, but where was the time?

Zhou Quan took off after two steps into the paint area, not gliding, but taking off with all his might, turning around at 360 degrees, and then vigorously splitting the buckle.

"Bang!"

The Western All-Stars' basket was blown up again.

On the sidelines, a group of star stars stood up and applauded Zhou Quan.

In the CCTV broadcast room, Xu Jicheng and Song Shixiong were very shocked.

A few months ago, they just experienced seven defeats in seven games of the Olympic men's basketball team, and the Chinese men's basketball team has a very obvious weakness, that is, the guard line cannot face the full-court pressing of foreign strong teams, is not adaptable, and has a lot of mistakes.

But now, Zhou Quan can steal the Dream Team's starting point guard in a row.

Xu Jicheng was so excited that he stammered: "If, if we had Zhou Quan in the Olympics last year......"

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

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

Liu Yumin's family, she also felt very sorry when she heard Xu Jicheng's words.

If Zhou Quan was brought last year, where would there be seven games and seven defeats, with Zhou Quan's strength, maybe the men's basketball team would have a chance to make it out of the group stage, if so, the worst would be the eighth in the world.

"Let's see how many times you can break it!"

Jordan was depressed to death, but Zhou Quan was a steal based on his ability, and he was helpless.

"Stockton is such a piece of shit!"

Depressed, he scolded his teammates again, but he could only scold in his heart, and if he really wanted to scold, the postman might be able to blow him in the face with an elbow.
