Stockton took a deep breath and said heavily: "Iron Fist should be stronger than last season, from defense to offense, he is getting stronger all the time.

Now he's playing with a dominant feeling, and that's the kind of offense that no matter how strong the defense is, he can attack whenever he wants, and I think he's in his prime by now. ”

He is the first line against Iron Fist, the pressure is actually the greatest, and the change in the strength of Iron Fist is also the clearest and most profound.

Hearing Stockton's words, head coach Jerry Sloan smiled bitterly: "Prime? If it's true, it's quite a hassle.

He hasn't reached his peak yet, he has grabbed two championships in four years, and now that he is in his prime, what will happen to this league in the future?

Perhaps, when the Detroit people talk about the Iron Fist era, there will really be a scene, right? Jordan is slowly getting older, who else can resist him in the future? ”

"Iron Fist Age?"

Hearing this word, the postman's spirit was in a trance.

Jerry Sloan added: "39 points, 10 assists and 7 steals in a single game, with a shooting rate of 75%, invincible offense and defense, I hope tonight is an outbreak of his, not the norm, otherwise no matter who it is, unless the lineup is strong and the supersonic is a grade, it will not be able to win the supersonics." ”

"It's definitely going to be an outbreak, it's never going to be the norm." The postman was adamantly authentic.

"You say, can the Mosaics beat this supersonic?" Hornacek asked.

"Big Dream + Fliggy, the inside line has an absolute advantage, it should be ......" The postman said this, thinking of Zhou Quan, but stopped again, unable to continue.

Jerry Sloan said: "Although Mosaic has an absolute advantage on the inside, it is an absolute disadvantage on the outside, and they should belong to the same level.

However, if the Big Three break out at the same time, and they all play superstar performances, no matter how strong the iron fist is, even if he is a god, he can't beat it. ”

"Coach, what are we going to do?" The postman asked reluctantly.

“……”

Jerry Sloan opened his mouth and smiled wryly, "I don't know either." ”

Hornacek was traded from the Suns to Philadelphia and then to the Jazz, and he was dead of the mind of winning the championship, and said in a more relaxed tone:

"Jordan is older, and Iron Fist is only more than 23 years old, less than 24 years old, and there are still a lot of peaks, if you want to enter the finals in the future, I think the East has a better chance."

"To the east?"

Both the Postman and Stockton were not dead set on winning the championship, and the thought came to their minds at the same time when they heard this.

……

After the post-game press conference, the SuperSonics set off overnight and rushed back to Seattle. The team will face the Lakers back-to-back tomorrow.

At five o'clock in the morning on the 4th, Zhou Quan returned to the villa.

It is said that his bed is very large, and after Zeng Li's account for more than half of it, his place is still very large, and after saying a few words to Zeng Li, who was woken up, he put down the posture of sleeping Dangong and began to practice.

In the past, he thought that practicing Sleep Pill Gong was to sleep in a strange position, but now he doesn't think so, and being in meditation is different from sleeping.

Ten minutes later, as his thoughts became less and less, he began to settle down.

With such an irregular schedule, if it was before, the quality of sleep would definitely not be very good, but after getting up at 11 o'clock in the morning on the 4th, I felt good, full of energy, dreamless, and slept for six hours in one sleep.

"Zhou Quan ......"

Hearing the movement in the bedroom, Zeng Lixi ran up from downstairs.

"Forgot again? Call the husband. Zhou Quan corrected.

"Husband."

Zeng Li quickly changed his words obediently and asked, "What kind of qigong are you practicing?" Now that the domestic qigong is hot, there are a lot of incense gongs and crane gongs. ”

"Ahri, this is the authentic immortal cultivation Dafa of the Wudang Sect, and I can't spread it." Zhou Quan said mysteriously with a mysterious expression.

"Don't deceive people, do you teach or not?"

"I also have a Yin and Yang dual cultivation method here, and the highest realm can be practiced to the Yuan Infant Stage, why don't we practice this together?"

"What is the Yuan Infant Period?"

"Ah Li, at first glance, you haven't read the legend of the Shushan Swordsman of the Lord of Huanzhu Building. Let me tell you, if you practice my Dafa, you will be able to cultivate into a primordial infant, and when the time comes, the primordial infant will be able to leave the body when it matures......"

"Phew, lie to me again! How can there be such a powerful qigong? ”

"It's true, I'll teach you tomorrow."

"It's a deal."

……

At noon, Los Angeles TV suddenly reported a news that Magic Johnson was interested in making a comeback.

This news, because of the particularity of Magic Johnson, immediately triggered other media reports in the United States.

In the evening, Zhou Quan drove and Zeng Lifu to the gymnasium, and then the car was surrounded by reporters at the entrance of the parking lot.

"Iron Fist, do you support the magician's comeback? Are you worried about getting infected by him? As soon as he opened the window, several microphones came in, and a reporter asked aloud.

Zhou Quan already knows the news, he has a bit of a headache, I don't understand what the magician thinks, you are all fat balls, what are you doing here?

And Magic has a 4.5% stake in the Lakers, and if he really wants to make a comeback, these shares will definitely have to be sold, and he doesn't think it's a good idea to make a comeback.

This news from Los Angeles TV should be at the behest of the Lakers and Magic, or perhaps the meaning of the league, to throw the topic out first and try to react.

At that time, because the Magic did not want to retire, many players openly objected, among which the smiling assassin Thomas was opposed to him staying on the court, and he also turned against the Magic, and was even kicked out of the dream team.

He pondered for a moment and then said, "If this news is true, I think the magician's decision is a bit hasty, and his current weight and physical condition are not suitable for a comeback at all." And I don't think his comeback will help the Lakers.

Of course, maybe his comeback was just out of love for basketball, but I think he should have thought about it more holistically. For example, the safety of the players who play with him, and a series of social issues. ”

"So Iron Fist, are you against his comeback?" The reporters asked excitedly.

Zhou Quan groaned again, his relationship with the magician was average, Thomas offended him by resisting the magician, and he couldn't even join the dream team, and now if he expressed his opposition, of course he would offend the magician.

But what about offending a magician? He didn't want to join the U.S. team.

"I think it's the right thing for a magician to announce that he's cured of his illness and then decide whether to come back or not," Zhou said. ”

Zeng Li came to the Seattle Center Gymnasium for the first time, and after the host asked for Zhou Quan's consent, he officially introduced Zeng Li's identity to the fans and won the welcome of the audience.

On the CCTV commentary seat, Zhang Reasonable and Xu Jicheng were also introducing Zeng Li's identity.

"Iron Fist! Tekken! Tekken ......"

When Zhou Quan appeared, a huge shout rang out from the audience.

"That's the influence of the world's heavyweight champions." Zhang said excitedly.

Before the start of the game, Zhou Quan and others received the championship ring.

Jose Hawkins was drooling at the sight of the sparkling championship ring.

Mourning and Larry Johnson, the old enemies, have been fighting in the Hornets for several years, and the locker room is too chaotic, and he has long annoyed these two guys, and this time Mourning went to the Heat, and he and Kendall Gill switched teams, and he felt that it was really lucky.

Then the SuperSonics defeated the Lakers and won the opening game for the second in a row.

Zhou Quan once again scored 44 points, 4 rebounds, 13 assists, 6 steals and 3 blocks, and the SuperSonics also beat the Lakers by 27 points, shooting 54.5%.

The third game was No. 7, with two days to rest in between, and Zhou Quan went all out to shoot and improved his 92-level step-back jumper to one level.

"No, you can't have a baby before you get married."

In the past two days, Zeng Li finally figured out what Yuanying was, and he ignored Zhou Quan for half an hour in shame.

Zhou Quan has also been thinking about what company to set up for Zeng Li, so as not to make her too boring at home.

In the past two days, Zhou Quan's answer in an interview has spread all over the United States.

The interpretation of this by the American media is that Zhou Quan does not support the comeback of Magic Johnson, which led some American media to seize the opportunity to attack Zhou Quan for discriminating against magicians and Ai deaths.

With his current popularity and influence, the reaction to this matter has been a bit bigger, and more media have begun to intervene, and even some people, rights, protection and protection organizations have begun to intervene.

The pressure on Zhou Quan suddenly increased, far greater than the pressure of the smiling assassin at that time.

"Zhou, are you really against Erwin's comeback?" David Stern saw the situation expanding, and immediately called Zhou Quan.

"Mr. Stern, is it the League that wants him to come back?" Zhou Quan asked straight to the point.

David Stern hesitated for a moment and said, "It was he who proposed it personally, and he was even willing to sell his shares in the Lakers." You know, his contribution to the league is huge, I can only agree, it's hard to refuse. ”

Zhou Quan immediately said: "Then Mr. Stern, I can tell you for sure that I am indeed against the comeback of the magician.

He's sick and I'm sad for him, but it's his personal behaviour and he has to take responsibility and he has to take responsibility for the safety of the other players, and you can't come back because of personal reasons. ”

Stern probed: "What if, he really forced a comeback?" You know, if he does force his comeback, there's nothing I can do to stop him, as long as the Lakers are willing to give him a contract. ”

Zhou Quan smiled: "I'm not a smiling assassin, sir, he doesn't have a choice, and I have a lot of choices." You know, I'm going to prepare for my first forced title defense, but I don't have enough time, maybe I can consider taking a break from the NBA and letting the Magic take my place. ”

When David Stern on the other end of the phone heard this, his face twitched, and he was also very annoyed by Zhou Quan's threatening attitude.

But he knows that this can't be done, now Zhou Quan's influence in the world far exceeds Jordan, one of the greatest athletes in the world, Zhou Quan can bring the NBA huge world influence, and he who desperately hopes to promote the NBA to the world, he absolutely can't accept Zhou Quan's abandonment of the NBA.

So he could only forcibly suppress the fire in his heart, ignoring Zhou Quan's threat, and instead reassured: "Zhou, I'm just asking for your opinion, then I will discuss this issue carefully with the Lakers, hoping to convince them."

Also, regarding your mandatory title defense, I want you to put it in the offseason, that's better for everybody, what do you think? ”

"As long as the alliance can consider our security, I am happy and willing to defend the interests of the alliance." Zhou Quan smiled.

On the night of the 7th, the SuperSonics defeated the Clippers at home and won three consecutive victories in the opening game.

Zhou Quan once again scored 41 points, 5 rebounds, 12 assists, 6 steals and 2 blocks, shooting 52.3% from the field.

After playing the Clippers, Zhou Quan took leave and did not attend the press conference, and then after sending Zeng Lifu home, he rushed back and rushed to Denver overnight with the team to start the second back-to-back.

The Nuggets have started the game with three straight losses, four in a row on the night of the 8th, and the SuperSonics are just the opposite, with Zhou Quan scoring 35 points and winning four in a row.

In the past few days, the topic of the magician's comeback and Zhou Quan's opposition to the magician's comeback has begun to subside, and the pressure on Zhou Quan has begun to decrease.

Magic Johnson has not been in front of the media, and no one knows where he is.

In fact, he stayed in the villa in Los Angeles, originally training to prepare for his comeback, but Zhou Quan's attitude made the league and the Lakers change their attitude towards his comeback, and he had to stop his comeback training in frustration.

Therefore, he also had a great opinion about Zhou Quan.

But now Zhou Quan's status in the world's sports world far surpasses him, even in the United States, his current popularity is far greater than that of him, who has been retired for several years, and he has nothing to do with Zhou Quan.

On the 10th, the supersonic visited Los Angeles.

Although Zhou Quan did not support the return of the Magic, which affected the interests of the Lakers, it seems that his popularity in Los Angeles has not been affected, but far more than before, and when he played, he received extremely enthusiastic cheers, as if he was at home, which is also caused by his current status in the world sports world.

Hearing the cheers of the audience, Zhang Li said with a smile: "Angelenos really regard Zhou Quan as half of Angelenos. ”

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "Then play in the supersonic for a few years, and then the Lakers will play for a few more years." ”

"Haha......" Zhang Li laughed.

On this night, Zhou Quan scored 38 points to defeat the Lakers and win the opening five in a row.

The SuperSonics schedule was quite irritating, and after playing the Lakers, they rushed back to Seattle overnight because tomorrow is another back-to-back home and away game.

It was also the third consecutive back-to-back in the opening game, and it was both back-to-back home and away, which was very challenging for the players' fitness.

In these five games, because the opponents are not too strong, the SuperSonics average 119.4 points per game, first in the offensive league, win 25.4 points per game, concede 93.6 points per game, first in the West in defense, second in the league, second only to the Bulls, who have won all four games.

With five consecutive wins in the opening game, the SuperSonics climbed to the top of the league strongly, fully demonstrating the strength and momentum of the defending team.

In the first five games, Zhou Quan played an average of 38.5 minutes per game, scoring 39.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 12 assists, 5.8 steals, 2 blocks, 2.2 turnovers and 2.6 fouls.

This statistic caused a sensation across the league, with points, assists, and steals all ranked first in the league, and one steal was even more jaw-dropping.

On the morning of the 11th, the league officially announced the MVP rankings, as well as the best of the week.

Zhou Quan successfully reached the top of the MVP rankings and won the title of Player of the Week.
