That afternoon, after three years, Zhou Quan completed the final shooting training.

91 hook shots, 92 step-back jumpers, 90 turn-back jumpers, 91 drift shots, 93 mounted archery, and the remaining five shooting skills are all promoted to the top level.

+1 for Shooting Basics, +4 for Offense, +1 for Stamina, which is an additional bonus, Shooting is now up to level 97, Offense is 93, and Stamina is 95.

He looked at the information, all skills, including breakthrough and shooting skills, are above level 90, and in terms of physical fitness, except for the strength of only level 86, the rest are also all level 90 or above.

The 93-level offense, although it is only one level higher, he still feels good, and he is getting closer and closer to the strength of the top attacker.

He's a point guard, and he's a little bit taller, which naturally limits his offensive ability, and it's good to be able to move up to level 93.

If you want to take your offense to the top of the 95 level, you can only get a chance by training a few of these shooting skills to the 95 level.

"It's time to add three-point shots."

He's in a good mood because he's been in control of his three-point shots, averaging around two per game, shooting 39.8 percent so far, and with two months to go until the end of the season, there's still a chance.

……

On the 9th, race day.

SuperSonics officials announced Rodman's comeback in the morning, after 52 days of injury.

At half past six in the evening, Zhou Quan, who had had dinner, drove to the central gymnasium and happened to meet the Bulls in the parking lot.

"Hey, hello, welcome to Seattle." Zhou Quan raised his hand and greeted.

"Hey, Iron Fist."

In addition to Jordan and Pippen, many people hurriedly responded.

"Flyer, why don't you speak?" Zhou Quan shouted.

"Good evening."

Worried that Zhou Quan would use the topic to play, Jordan was not angry.

Seeing Jordan speak, Pippen hurriedly said, "Hey, Iron Fist, good evening." ”

"See you later."

Zhou Quan nodded, raised his hand again, and walked away.

"This guy is full of style." Pippen said with a look of envy.

"Shut up!"

Jordan glared at Pippen angrily, you are blind, in terms of style, I am the boss of the NBA.

……

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced their starting lineups.

Bulls: Verpeldo, Tony Kukoc, Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan, BJ Armstrong

Hypersonics: Matt Geiger, Almon Gilliam, Schramf, Kendall Gill, Zhou Quan

The game was broadcast live across the United States by NBC and narrated by James Worthy and John Moore.

Worthy said at this time: "After Rodman's injury, the supersonics' record has not dropped significantly, and they still maintain the first place in the West, which is very good, and it is still a championship-level strength."

It was 17-4 with a win rate of 80.9%, now it is 33-11 with a 75% win rate, and Rodman has a 16-7 win rate of 69.6% during the 52 days of his injury.

Today's announcement of Rodman's comeback by the SuperSonics is good news for the team, and the Bulls currently have three more wins than the SuperSonics, and there is a chance to catch up. ”

John Moore nodded: "Iron Fist rookie season average 19.1 points per game in the regular season, 20.4 points in the second season, 21.7 points last season, and 30.1 points per game so far this season, only 0.2 points behind Michael Jordan, this season has improved a lot in terms of scoring, and there is a chance to compete for the scoring title."

If Iron Fist wins the scoring title, then he will win the scoring title, the assist king, and the steal king at the same time, which is definitely a historical record.

Only once in league history has Hall of Famer Archibald won both assists and scoring titles in the '72/73 season.

And no one has ever won the assist and scoring and steals in a season at the same time, no, and this time Iron Fist has a chance to make that history. ”

"Looking forward to it!" James Worthy laughed excitedly.

Moore looked at the information in his hand again, and said: "He's taken a little more shots this season, and he shot 51.2 percent last season, and now it's 52.3, a percentage point improvement, and he's become more efficient and more offensive in terms of individual offense." ”

Worthy laughed: "Obviously, he's got a lot more attacking and he's getting a lot more shots in the bag.

According to relevant statistics, since last month, in the last 13 games, he has averaged 5.8 shots per game, hitting 2.8 of them, and the shooting rate is 48.3%. And these data were only 2.5 times, 1 time, 40% before. ”

"Judging by the way he shoots, it's true, he's good at pretty much every shot," John Moore said.

Still, James, I've found that until today, he's still better at attacking the basket and rarely attacking with his back, like Michael Jordan's turnaround jumper, which is rarely used with his iron fist. ”

James Worthy shook his head and said: "In the finals last year, Iron Fist used a turning jump shot, and his breakthrough ability was very strong, even stronger than Jordan, so he rarely hit his back, mostly the basket, and rarely used the turning technique."

But it's true, like the turnaround and step-back jumper, he's never used it, not once. In terms of shooting skills, he is still not as well-rounded as Jordan. ”

At half past eight, the game began.

The jump ball, which was made up of Matt Geiger and Wilpeldo, were both role players, and in the end Geiger was the first to touch the ball and attack at supersonic speeds.

Below the halfway line, Jordan stood in front of Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan first dribbled and took a step back, then started to break through, dribbled under his crotch, and between his shoulders shaking, he burst through the left side.

"The body changed direction in front of him, the iron fist broke through, Jordan was half a step behind......" Zhang Li shouted loudly.

With continuous force at his feet, Zhou Quan held the ball and burst into the left elbow area.

At this time, Matt Geiger and Gilliam both pulled out of the paint area, but their pulling ability could not be compared to the previous Sam Perkins, so the Bulls' two interior lines were still in the paint area.

At this time, seeing that he was about to burst in, Wilperdo, who was in the left waist position, immediately moved sideways and blocked him, and Tony Kukoc, who was in the right waist position, immediately moved a step to the basket.

At the same time, Matt Geiger, who was one step outside the left midfield, immediately bypassed Wilpeldo, cut to the basket and reached out to him for the ball.

Seeing this, Tony Kukoc could only go all out to defend the basket, and Almon Gilliam, who was one step outside the right waist position, was completely empty.

"Whoosh!"

Zhou Quan, who controlled the ball with his left hand, flicked it casually, and the basketball suddenly flew towards Gilliam.

Gilliam received the ball and stepped forward to shoot a jumper from the right midfield, which Tony Kukoc saved, but was a beat too late.

"Brush!"

The water splashed and the two hits.

"Zhou Quan broke through with the ball, forced the opponent to make up for the defense, and then the two inside lines cut in, and the other got an open opportunity, and the three of them cooperated very well." On the CCTV commentary seat, Zhang Li praised.

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "This ball was not blocked by Michael Jordan and was sudden, which caused the defense of the inside line to be passive." ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "In the second round of the East in 93, the reason why the Bulls were eliminated was that Jordan's dream of three consecutive championships was smashed by Zhou Quan's punch, that is, because Jordan couldn't prevent Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan's breakthrough technology is very comprehensive and fast, which makes people unguardable, and it is omnipotent in sudden throwing, and it is even more impossible to prevent it. ”

The Bulls attacked, Jordan still used the block to get rid of Zhou Quan, and did not break through with the ball against Zhou Quan's defense.

After he received the ball on the right wing, Tony Kukoc immediately ran up and stood on Zhou's right side, and then he broke through from the inside, and Kukoc turned around and stopped outside the three-point line.

Zhou Quan turned around Kukoc, his movements were very fast, only half a step slower than Jordan, and when Jordan hit his right elbow in two steps, he found that Zhou Quan had chased him to his side, and he immediately stopped and shot instantly.

No matter how fast Zhou Quan reacts, he is also passive defense, and Jordan believes that he definitely has a chance to shoot this ball.

But Jordan didn't know that Zhou Quan had already been mentally prepared, so he prevented him from making a pull-up jump shot in the right elbow area.

The reason is very simple, because the left and right elbow areas are the areas where Jordan is best at shooting, Jordan is likely to make a pull-up jump shot.

So in the next moment of Jordan's emergency stop, he had already made the quickest response, made an emergency stop and turned around, and almost at the same time as Jordan jumped, he also jumped.

Seeing the big hand pressed, Jordan had to lean back as much as he could.

But Zhou Quan didn't give him a chance, he accelerated with his big hand, snapped, and directly fanned the ball under the precise blow.

"Shet!"

Jordan couldn't help but curse, he didn't expect Zhou Quan's reaction to be so fast, so he used a stop-and-go jump shot, without leaning back, but he didn't expect to be fanned.

"Oh roar!"

Seeing Zhou Quan slap Jordan, the fans in the audience immediately cheered very excitedly.

"Beautiful!"

Zhang Li cheered, and said quickly: "Kendall Gill got the ball, hurry up, BJ followed, Jordan and Zhou Quan here followed......"

Zhou Quan stopped on the left wing three-point line, and Jordan had to stop.

Kendall Gill hit BJ to the basket, and it can be regarded as a big and small misalignment, and he successfully made a layup and hit a ball.

Bulls attack.

Pippen singled Schramf with the ball on the left flank, and after breaking through, he was met by Matt Geiger in the left midfield position, and then was trapped, and he forced a shot, but it was missed.

Zhou Quan rushed down to grab the rebound in the backcourt, advanced quickly, and when he hit the left wing of the frontcourt, Schramf made a block and cover, and he took the opportunity to burst in.

The bull quickly changed his defense, facing Pippen, Zhou Quan did not pause, after a slight change of direction, he accelerated his stride through people, and then burst Pippen, sticking to the bottom line and killing the paint area.

In the left midfield, Wilperdo could only move down to make up for Zhou Quan, and then Matt Geiger immediately moved to the basket.

"Bang!"

Zhou Quan threw a pass with his hand, Geiger stepped up after receiving the ball, smashed the ball into the basket with one arm, and Kukoc, who returned to the basket from the other side, could only look at the ball and sigh.

"Beautiful! That's the threat of breaking away with the ball, allowing teammates to get open space close to the basket. Zhang Li exclaimed.

"Brush!"

The Bulls attacked, Jordan personally held the ball and fast-forwarded, and then made a pull-up jump shot from the middle distance on the right wing, which Zhou Quan did not prevent and was hit by him.

Turning around, Gill missed a jumper, the Bulls got the rebound, Pippen shot a three-pointer, almost blocked by Schramf, and Matt Geiger grabbed the rebound.

"With both shots missing, Pippen has a strong desire to attack today, but the feel should be average." Xu Jicheng said.

At this time, Zhou Quan quickly advanced to the top of the arc, Jordan blocked in front, he did not stop, but broke through with a one-handed daunting and rushed directly from the left side.

When he hit the left elbow area, BJ made up for the basket from the right wing, Zhou Quan did not hesitate, BJ could not have the ability to block him, he dribbled with his left hand, carried Jordan who caught up with his right elbow, and hit the paint area strongly, and then jumped, holding the ball high in his left hand, and wanted to dunk.

In the next moment, BJ took a step back and dodged, and at the same time, Jordan jumped to block, but was pushed out by Zhou Quan's right elbow, and no matter how long his arm was, he couldn't touch Zhou Quan's left hand.

"Bang!"

"Oh roar!"

With the sound of fried baskets, the Seattle Center Gymnasium instantly boiled.

"Bang!"

The Bulls attacked, Jordan missed a shot, and Schramf rushed in to grab the rebound.

Zhou Quan came to the left wing with the ball and broke through with Schramf's pick-and-roll cover.

This time, Pippen and Jordan opted for a bag clip to keep Zhou Quan close to the left touchline.

Zhou Quan didn't look at Schramf's side, but broke through to the bottom left corner, and when Jordan and Pippen followed, he made a back pass, but the ball in his hand flew towards Schramf.

"Oops!"

Jordan and Pippen hurriedly turned around, but it was too late.

"Brush!"

Schramf catches the ball from beyond the three-point line, calmly jumpers, three-pointers.

"Beautiful! That's Zhou Quan's confidence, he is confident that he can split the ball in the bag of Pippen and Jordan, otherwise he will not choose to break through on the left wing. Zhang Cheng exclaimed excitedly.

"This is Zhou Quan's ability to create open space for his teammates, and he is not at all afraid in the face of two top outside defenders, and takes the initiative to find a bag." Xu Jicheng said excitedly.

"Bang!"

Pippen shot again, but still missed under Schramf's defense.

Jordan was a little annoyed by his little brother, but he now relies heavily on Pippen, and it's hard to say anything, it's just a regular season game anyway.

In this game, Pippen shot more than Jordan, only 7 of 21 shots, shooting only 33.3%, and under his wave throwing, 96:121, the Bulls finally lost the game.

Schramf played excellent form on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, limiting Pippen while scoring 24 points and shooting more than 6 percent.

In addition, Kendall also scored 21 points, plus Zhou Quan's 26 points, the supersonic three scored 20+, and three scored doubles, a total of six people scored doubles.

Rodman came off the bench and played 25 minutes, grabbed seven rebounds and was in okay form.

With the win over the Bulls, the SuperSonics continued to consolidate the No. 1 position in the West, and at the same time pulled the number of wins and losses with the Bulls to two games.

After the Bulls, All-Star Weekend came.

On the 10th, Zhou Quan flew to Phoenix, accompanied by German Schramf, where this year's All-Star was held.

When the two came to the hotel officially booked by the NBA, they saw a bunch of people at the door.

"Michael, do you want to do something about this All-Star? Is it a party, or a gamble? A reporter asked.

"Am I okay with table tennis?" Jordan said with a dark face.

Schramf glanced at it and said to Zhou Quan: "Iron Fist, it's Michael Jordan." ”

Zhou Quan nodded, and before he could speak, more than a dozen media reporters who saw him immediately ran over and surrounded the three of them.

"Iron Fist, you have built a private dock at Wharton Lake, are you going to buy a yacht or a sailboat?" The journalist asked.

"Oh, I'm interested in them all, and I've made one custom for each one." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

"Can you tell us about the price?" The journalist asked.

"More than 3 million yachts and more than 200,000 sailboats." Zhou Quan said.

"Oh!"

"God, other NBA stars are still playing sports cars or something, Tekken has started to play luxury yachts, and the grade style is completely different!"

"More than 3 million yachts, that is an absolute luxury yacht, only the rich can afford to play."

Hearing Zhou Quan's words, the reporters exclaimed.

Because Zhou Quan attracted some reporters, Jordan broke through the siege of reporters and was about to enter the hotel, when he heard the discussion of reporters here, and couldn't help but glance back at Zhou Quan.

"This kid is going to play yachting?"

He thinks this is a very good idea, the rich second generation plays sports cars, the rich generation plays yachts, and the yachts are of higher grade and higher quality.

Of course, he has also played with yachts, but they are all borrowed, maybe to participate in some yacht parties, he has no plans to buy a yacht before, it is too expensive.

After waiting for a while, the elevator came, and he was about to close the door after entering, when he saw Zhou Quan walking towards this side, he pressed the door button.

"Thank you."

Zhou Quan walked a few steps quickly and came in with Schramf.

"Iron Fist, are you really going to buy a yacht?" Jordan asked.

"I placed an order three months ago, and I guess I can get the ship after this season." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

"How much?" Jordan asked.

"3.5 million, 33 meters, this kind of luxury yacht is popular now, but I estimate that this kind of yacht will only get bigger and bigger in the future. Those rich people are not short of money, and there will even be tens of millions of super luxury yachts, and hundreds of millions are also possible. Zhou Quan said.

"Hundreds of millions?"

Jordan and Schramf almost bit their tongues.

"A few hundred million dollars a yacht? You don't talk nonsense, how is it possible to change ten bulls for one ship? Jordan clearly didn't believe it.

Zhou Quan laughed and said: "It's like a cruiser, more than a hundred meters long, there is everything on it, it's a sea fortress, you can sit on it and travel around the world, cool, right?" If you have one or two billion dollars and want to own it? ”

"Huh?"

Jordan gasped.

He wants to have one or two tens of billions, and it is really possible to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy himself a sea fortress, how much face and grade will he have?

Zhou Quan said with a smile: "Now that they are all playing this kind of multimillion-dollar yacht, we will also hurry up and have a good time, and when they play to a higher level, we don't have the strength to keep up." ”

Jordan nodded thoughtfully, saying that now is indeed the best time to participate.

Stepping out of the elevator, Zhou Quan received a call from Roberts.

"Iron Fist, are you coming to a party at night?"

"Of course."

"See you that night."

He has already dated a big-mouthed beauty, and both of them are now single, and they both need comfort and often date.

He was also a little annoyed by his girlfriend's problem, and he couldn't find a suitable one.

Christina Yeri was actually good before, at ease with his family, and hoped to have many children, but unfortunately he didn't want to get married at that time and missed the opportunity.

This all-star he just plans to relax, have a good time, and has won two AMVPs in a row, although this honor is the star of the stars, but it is actually not a hard honor, it is the lowest value of the three MVPs, it is not as good as the best hard of the month, he doesn't want to take it.

After the All-Star, the second half of the regular season begins.
