Zhou Quan looked at the task content carefully and couldn't help but secretly complain, isn't this just asking me to anger Karl Malone and then wait for his black elbow?
He saw clearly just now that Thomas rushed into the basket from the right elbow after taking advantage of the pick-and-roll. After passing Mark Eaton, he layup on the right side of the basket. When he jumped into the air, the postman took off from the left side of the basket. Use the tip of your right elbow to dry-turn the former.
The postman definitely did it on purpose. He has strong bones, but if he got this elbow on the face, he would probably have to lie down with blood on his face, and he might need 47 stitches.
"Joe, what's Dr. Iron Elbow's maximum bench press?" he turned around and asked.
"Like, 230 kilograms," Joe Dumas said.
He smacked his lips. At 230 kilograms, any elbow has a striking force of at least two to three hundred kilograms. Coupled with the hardness of the big bone at the tip of the elbow, Dr. Iron Elbow's elbow is not easy to carry!
There is no punishment for failing the mission anyway, so why not take the risk?
At eight o'clock, the game starts.
After a jump ball, Mark Eaton, who was 224 centimeters tall, took the lead in getting the ball away, and the Jazz attacked.
The center line, like a wall, has Zhou Quan with broad shoulders, blocking Stockton's front.
John Stockton is 182 centimeters tall naked and weighs only 77 kilograms, definitely less than 80 kilograms. He is one of the best point guards of this era. His ability to play does not depend on talent, because he has no talent. He relies on perseverance. Brains, hard work, skill, and dirt.
Seeing Zhou Quan blocking the front, he immediately changed direction and broke through from the right.
Zhou Quan was about to retreat when he suddenly found that his left foot was stepped on, and then an elbow hit his left arm.
The next moment, Stockton passed by from his left.
"It's really dirty!"
He secretly shouted and quickly turned around to catch up.
Stockton passed the top of the arc, and the Pistons quickly shrank. He turned left and right in the crowd, attracted the defender, and then passed the ball to the postman on the left wing.
After catching the ball, the Postman took advantage of the ball, scared Orlando Ulrich away with an elbow, and then made a jump shot.
"brush!"
The water splashed and hit two points.
Pistons offense.
Zhou Quan advanced with the ball, and after crossing the center line, Stockton blocked the front.
"Bang!"
He immediately changed direction and exerted force, stepping past people with 90-level acceleration. Stockton, who was retreating, was knocked over and slid on the floor for more than two meters.
This was the home court, and the referee's whistle did not sound. He rushed past Stockton, reached the top of the key, and headed straight into the penalty area.
Postman Ma Long stood in front of him with a cold face, while Zhou Quan calmly stopped at the free throw line for a jumper and shot the ball with one hand.
"Toss!"
shouted the bearded John Lowes, the commentator.
"Pass the ball."
The other commentator, the man with glasses, Lundgren Lance, shouted almost at the same time.
Pistons forward Orlando Ulrich was empty when the Postman covered up the defense.
Although he is 206 centimeters tall, his best position is small forward. His legs are very strong but his upper body is thin. He is a dunker.
Although it was empty, the mammoth Mark Eaton was sitting under the basket. Although the beast was old, he was still a shot-blocking machine, so before he entered the basket, he lurked in the low right wing and waited for opportunities.
When the opportunity came, when he saw the iron fist suddenly stop and rise, he rushed towards the basket. After the first step, he saw the ball coming.
Zhou Quan understood the offensive method that Ulrich was good at, which was not a throw but a pass. He also calculated the lead time and passed the ball one meter in the air to the right side of the basket. When the ball arrived, Ulrich happened to Soar into the sky.
"Snapped!"
Ulrich caught the ball with both hands and smashed it toward the basket.
Mark Eaton, who was under the basket, originally thought it was a throw, but when he saw that the angle was wrong, he immediately adjusted his feet and then took off to block the shot.
"boom!"
It was too late. Urielci held the ball with both hands and smashed it into the basket, pressing Mark Eaton's left hand.
"Oh ho!"
The Palace of Auburn Hills erupted in cheers.
"ah!"
The bearded commentator John Rowes shouted excitedly and roared: "A wonderful alley-oop, very good coordination!
I thought it was a throw, but no, our rookie is as cool as Isiah Thomas, and he's worth the wait. "
At the free throw line, Zhou Quan stood there, with Stockton at his feet just getting up, when Karl Malone ran over.
He used his peripheral vision to observe the postman running past him. A star like this who committed crimes unscrupulously could do anything on the court. He had to be careful. If the postman gave him an elbow by chance, he would eat it. Big loss.
Stockton received the ball and pushed it across the center line, and Zhou Quan came up to him, blocking the left side and driving the former to the right.
At this time, shooting guard Jeff Malone stood on the left side of Zhou Quan. Stockton immediately used the pick-and-roll to break through from the right side.
"Bang!"
Zhou Quan exerted his strength and used brute force to forcefully push away Jeff Malone and catch up with Stockton, breaking the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics.
Jeff Malone's tonnage is 93 kilograms, but his height is 193 centimeters. His muscle content is not as good as Zhou Quan, so his strength is not as good.
Zhou Quan stuck to Stockton's left side and squeezed it outward with his body. At the same time, his long arm suddenly reached out from behind to poke the ball.
Stockton only weighed 77 kilograms. With a tonnage difference of 18 kilograms, he couldn't carry it at all. He was so squeezed that his feet were in a mess and his hands were in a mess.
"Beautiful! Iron Fist hit the ball."
shouted bearded commentator John Lowes.
"Snapped!"
Joe Dumars pounced, took the opportunity to get the ball, then counterattacked and finally scored.
"John, watch out for that rookie."
Postman Malone, who was returning to the backcourt, came over to whisper to Stockton, glanced at Zhou Quan, and then ran towards the frontcourt.
In the Jazz frontcourt, Zhou Quan once again stood in front of Stockton. The latter pulled significantly to the left wing, and the former followed up, still blocking the front.
This time, instead of Jeff Malone setting the pick-and-roll, Postman Karl Malone comes out and sets the pick-and-roll for Stockton.
"Haha, none of the Jazz's three outsiders can compete with Iron Fist. The pick-and-roll effect is not good, so the postman has to do it himself."
laughed bearded commentator John Rowes.
"Small forward Edwards only weighs 91 kilograms, which is not as good as Jeff Malone." Lens, a man with glasses, added.
Stockton used a pick-and-roll to enter the left wing. The postman was too big and Zhou Quan was too slow to get around. Ulrich immediately changed defense.
The postman followed up a few steps and then received the pass in the mid-range position. He jumped up and shot. When he took off the ball with both hands, he lifted the tip of his left elbow upwards.
Zhou Quan has to study his opponent's information before every battle. He especially studies a villainous superstar like the Postman a lot. He understands his habit of using his elbow to clear the way, and he has been mentally prepared for it.
After taking off, he didn't intend to block the shot at all. Instead, he crossed his arms in front of his chest and made a cross defense. The postman picked it up with his elbow, just on the cross. The moment he was picked, he pressed down with all his strength.
