NBA: Sharks at the peak, guard the basket!

Chapter 202 The scene of accidentally injuring a friendly soldier?The all-star teammate who was dunked by Lin Hong--Rain Man Kemp!

Payton casually sprayed Kemp a few more words, and then turned his attention back to the defensive end.

Penny Hardaway held the ball across half court, crossed past the defense, and passed the ball to Jordan who was open without looking.

The Eastern All-Stars showed off at the beginning.

"boom!"

As soon as the basketball started, Jordan quickly raised his head to aim at the basket and made a shooting action!

And at this moment, a giant palm appeared out of nowhere and blocked Jordan's head!

Looking closer, the owner of the palm is obviously a boy wearing a No. 8 jersey and a red headband!
"It's Kobe!"

When Zhang Lili saw this, his eyelids twitched instantly.

"Unexpectedly, Kobe defended Jordan closely from the very beginning!"

"Jordan's running off the ball seemed to throw off Kobe, but Kobe insisted on using active defense to block the shot at the critical moment!"

"Averaging 1.8 steals and 1.2 blocks per game, this is enough to prove that Kobe is improving at a high speed on the defensive end!"

Seeing Kobe's positive attitude at the beginning, the commentators in the United States couldn't help but tremble.

It can be said that Kobe's performance is completely sending a signal!
In this game, he will try his best to lock Jordan! !

And Jordan will also face the challenge of the strongest successor.

The commentators couldn't be more appreciative of Bryant's defense.

But at the same time, they are also looking forward to what kind of strong response Jordan will give!
Will it be a teaching bureau!

as predicted.

"Whoosh"!
In the anticipation of the fans in the audience, Jordan didn't even think about it after getting the basketball. He aimed at the basket and decisively raised his hand to take off.

Ignoring Kobe's defense, pulling onions on dry land, drifting and leaning back with high difficulty!
"WOW! Such a difficult shot!"

The pupils of the two commentators in the ESPN commentary booth instantly dilated, and they couldn't help but exclaim!

Pulling onions on dry land, shooting against people, and drifting back...

Jordan's shot selection is simply terrible and unreasonable!

"Shh!"

However, when Jordan hit two points.

The two commentators instantly shut their mouths!
2: 2.

"This is the most horizontal Answer-Ball I've seen this season." A commentator swallowed.

Lin Hong started the game with a powerful chop and buckle.

Looking back, Jordan was facing Kobe, drifting and hitting a jumper!
Such a tyrannical AnswerBall deserves to be No.1 in the league! !

When the old hooligan Jordan completed a pull-up jumper over Kobe's head, Kobe's face flashed with annoyance.

Obviously, this is not the result he wanted.

But for Jordan's response this time, he must give full marks.

Looking back, when Jordan guarded Bryant, he couldn't help but marvel at the high schooler.

After Kobe received a pass from Payton at the top of the arc, he immediately played Jordan with his back and singles.

"boom!"

Turned over and shot backwards, and hit the board!
4: 2.

The same moves, the same style of play, Jordan seemed to see himself in his youth in a trance.

Although he was a little surprised by Kobe's hit, Jordan was most shocked by Kobe's singles choice without hesitation.

You know, he is one of the strongest perimeter defenders in the league, but Kobe is not afraid at all!

The two guards, old and new, were fighting fiercely on the field, while the audience and commentators on the sidelines were constantly discussing.

Jordan's fadeaway jumper and Kobe's offensive response made the fans at the scene suddenly feel that the two were carved out of the same mold.

"Kobe vs. Jordan, it's like looking in a mirror!"

"The attacks of the two are almost exactly the same, and the similarity is extremely high!"

"We are witnessing the most exciting two-person matchup in this All-Star game!"

Zhang Lili pouted, shook his head and said, "Kobe's strong response made me smell like a future superstar!!"

Just like what Zhang Lili said, Kobe's current offense is completely like a superstar's style of play!
"There is no doubt that as long as Kobe grows rapidly, coupled with Lin Hong's inside killer, the Los Angeles Lakers will definitely have the possibility of stabilizing the championship next season!"

The almost crazy opening scoring performance made the fans hooked.

Offensive and defensive transition, the East's backcourt.

"Rookie, no matter what, you can't guard me!" Jordan said with fierce eyes.

Continue to play Kobe with his back in the low position, without fancy dribbling, the way is simple.

Turn around directly, classic back shot!
The height difference between Kobe and Jordan is almost the same, even if Jordan shoots back, he will not have much advantage.

But he just wants to show!

"boom!"

Then, he was killed by the Chinese giant who was ambushing behind Kobe.

The giant of the Celestial Dynasty ruled all kinds of bells and whistles!
"You make me look unprofessional!"

After catching the cap, Lin Hong smiled and passed the ball to Payton, and then flew with Rainman Kemp on both wings, and quickly counterattacked the frontcourt.

Payton quickly counterattacked with the ball, and took advantage of the fact that everyone in the East was unable to defend, and directly threw the ball to the side of the basket.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Hong and Kemp, who rushed to the basket at the same time, took off almost at the same time!
These two are the best finishers for lobs.

Seeing Payton's alley-oop pass, he kicked off the ground and flew up subconsciously.

Next, the first famous scene of the 1997 All-Star Game was born!
With an absolute height advantage, Lin Hong took the lead in controlling the basketball.

then…

He dunked his All-Star teammate - Rain Man Kemp!

This is so outrageous! !
"Lin Hong received a lob pass from Gary Payton and actually dunked his teammate Sean Kemp!"

"This scene is so dramatic, it will definitely be one of the most searched headlines in Mimi today!"

"Hahaha, Sean Kemp is too miserable. He just danced a little bit shorter than Lin Hong, but he was dunked by his teammates!"

Being dunked by an opponent is actually not terrible.

The terrible thing is that he was dunked by his teammates.

And it was still in this situation where two people took off at the same time and tried to catch an alley-oop, they were dunked by the teammate who jumped higher!

Sean Kemp was directly caught dumbfounded.

who am I?
where am I?
Obviously it is our right to the ball, why am I still dunked? !

It took a long time for Yu to accept this huge blow.

When he played against the Lakers, it was fine if he was dunked by Lin Hong.

They are all teammates, but they are still detained by Lin Hong?
This is too bullying! !

Are you really going to fight to the death with yourself, a brutal power forward?
Lin Hong was also embarrassed and accidentally injured the friendly army.

What a coincidence the mother opened the door for coincidence and coincidence came home.

This nima is also okay? !

He has never experienced this scene of dunking teammates in the air!
Let alone Lin Hong, the person involved.

Many of the top [-] superstars present on the sidelines were completely dumbfounded by the ball.

Even though they are used to seeing big scenes, they have never seen the coquettish operation of dunking teammates in the middle of a fast break.

There is absolutely no way to escape the all-star famous scene.

"Sorry, Sean."

Lin Hong stretched out his hands in embarrassment, and picked up the hard-hit Rain Man Kampra who was knocked to the ground by him.

"Hehe... You didn't mean it either."

Yuren also laughed awkwardly: "Besides, I'm almost used to it!"

Whether he was dunked by his teammate Lin Hong or by his opponent Lin Hong, Yuren Kemp felt that this might be his destiny.

"Lin, this is a bit too much, you even dunk your teammates?
Kobe took the opportunity to come up and put up a middle finger, jokingly said: "No martial arts!"

"Get out! Believe it or not, I will not only dunk teammates, but also blow their ribs?"

Lin Hong rubbed his fists at Kobe, showing a devilish smile.

For a temporary teammate like Rainman Kemp, Lin Hong still puts friendliness first.

But for Kobe, the sixth child, he doesn't need to deal with all these bells and whistles.

Just spray and you're done!
Kobe was also frightened by Lin Hong's harsh words, turned and left.

The Eastern All-Star team has the ball.

Penny Hardaway quickly crossed the half court with the ball, then played a pick-and-roll with Grant Hill, rushed into the middle distance, and threw the ball to the right side of the basket!
It was too late and then too soon, the African mountain Mutombo jumped up like a thunder from the ground, and he was about to complete a beast alley-oop dunk!
"boom!"

However, just before Uncle Mu received the basketball, a pair of long arms rushed ahead of him and hugged the basketball directly in the air!
"It's Lin Hong!"

The sharp-eyed Zhang Lili yelled out directly: "Lin Hong strikes late, grabs between Mutombo and confiscates Hardaway's lob pass!"

"This is too exaggerated! Lin Hong took off later than Mutombo, but he touched the basketball one step ahead of Mutombo and completed the steal!"

"You must know that although Mutombo is 2 meters tall, his bullet speed and bounce are also beast-level, but the result is still not enough for Lin Hong!"

On the court, Uncle Mu, who was cut off by Lin Hong, was also in a daze.

According to the usual script for this ball, he had already dunked the ball and roared at his little brother Lin Hong in protest!
"Senior, you jump too short."

Uncle Mu looked at Lin Hong in bewilderment, while Lin Hong passed the ball to Peyton while shaking his head and sighing: "Or, you fly too low~"

Jump too short?

Or is it flying too low? !

Lin Hong's faintly coquettish words made the old senior Mutombo startled!
This little brother is too uneducated!

But before Uncle Mu had time to retaliate, Lin Hong, who had completed the lob interception, had already let go and charged the frontcourt at full speed!
Payton, who received a pass from Lin Hong, also speeded up and rushed to the frontcourt immediately.

"The Western Conference is on the fast break. With a player of Lin Hong's size, the Western Conference All-Star team has played a fast-paced offensive and defensive transition instead!"

"This is Lin Hong's advantage. He has the inside destructive power of a traditional center, and at the same time has top-level running and jumping ability!"

"The Eastern All-Stars have to find a way to change the situation!"

On the eastern side, there are not enough returning players, and they can only watch Lin Hong receive a pass from Payton with gloves, dunk with both hands and hit again!
Offensive and defensive conversion.

Hardaway held the ball across half court, called his teammates for a pick-and-roll, and then took a step inside the three-point line.

On the other side, Grant Hill ran out of space, and Hardaway passed the ball decisively!
"DUANG!"

Unfortunately, Hill missed a three-pointer and the basketball jumped out of the hoop!

Under the basket, Batman Pippen and Mutombo stood on both sides of Lin Hong, rushing to grab offensive rebounds in a siege style!

"You two are thinking too much~"

Without looking at Mutombo and Pippen, who were besieging him, Lin Hong directly stood up!
Huge height and wingspan advantage plus fast bullet speed and monster-like bounce!

Under the situation of complete suppression, even though Mutombo + Pippen attacked from both sides, Lin Hong still made a bloody way through the cracks and protected the backcourt rebounds!
After grabbing the rebound, Lin Hong passed the ball to Payton again.

Payton quickly counterattacked the frontcourt for the second time.

With this ball, Lin Hong quickly went to the frontcourt, attracting the defensive attention of the eastern stars. Payton successfully assisted Kobe and completed an alley-oop dunk!

Since the opening match between Jordan and Kobe, the West suddenly accelerated the pace of the game and caught the East by surprise!
Looking back, Penny Hardaway continued to organize the offense, and Grant Hill made a mid-range shot and finally made a hit, breaking the scoring drought!
10: 4.

The Western All-Stars quickly advanced through the frontcourt, but Kobe made an emergency stop and missed a mid-range shot.

Mutombo, who quickly returned to the defense, jumped up and was about to protect the backboard.

"boom!"

It was too late to say that, just as Mutombo's big hands were getting closer to the basketball, a huge body completely covered the top of his head from behind him!
A pair of long arms, control the basketball before Mutombo!
The huge palm grabbed the basketball without any intention of falling, and blasted towards the basket through Mutombo!
"boom!!"

A powerful dunk, the whole basket buzzing!
The entire Pepsi Center Arena instantly fell into dead silence!
"OH! MY GOD!"

The fans fell into a dead silence, and Albert, the commentator on the sidelines, jumped up directly: "What did I see!"

"It's Lin Hong! Lin Hong made a one-step start from inside the three-point line, made a tip-up and dunked Dikembe Mutombo!"

"This is too scary! Mutombo took off early again, but Lin Hong came from behind and ruthlessly blocked the dunk!"

"It's still the same old problem. Lin Hong's bounce and bullet speed have all crushed Mutombo. There is no doubt that they are at the historical level!"

"Before the game, Mutombo, a senior in Georgetown, said that today Lin Hong will not be allowed to grab the backcourt rebounds. He will let the juniors feel the pain of growing up!"

"But now, the person who can't grab rebounds, or even protect the backcourt rebounds, seems to be himself!"

As the narrator Albert said.

Just 3 minutes and 14 seconds after the start of the first quarter, the West hit a 12:4 scoring shock wave.

Compared with the scoring shortage in the East so far, the rebounding shortage of the African mountain Mutombo + Grant Hill so far is the real surprise!
You know, Mutombo was crowned the best defensive player last season, a ruthless man who averaged 11.8 rebounds per game.

Grant Hill is also no less impressive, averaging 9.8 rebounds per game, second in the league in total defensive rebounds, second only to Robinson, and higher than inside players such as Ewing, Malone and Kemp.

These two inside partners played for more than three minutes, but they had 0 rebounds!

It's outrageous when you think about it!
In stark contrast, Lin Hong, the starting center in the Western Conference and playing All-Star for the first time!
So far in the first quarter, this giant from China has scored 4 of 4, scored 8 points, and grabbed 2 rebounds and 2 blocks!
3 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks in 2 minutes, and there are non-human aerial interceptions + putbacks and dunks!

Just judging from the performance of the game so far, it seems that Lin Hong is the so-called talent monster!
