Chapter 768: Luxurious commentary team, climax at the beginning
When the away team came on the field, huge boos were heard.
With his face as deep as water, Harden walked to the bench and sat down, checking his equipment for the last time.
Next, the home team came out, and cheers filled the sky, resounding throughout the Rose Garden Arena.
The continuous MVP cheers were like a tide, wave after wave, looking at every Mosaic player on the scene.
Finally, Wang Zelin, wearing jersey No. 36, made his final appearance, and the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak in an instant.
"Dwight, let's make peace for now."
In front of the mosaic bench, taking advantage of the last few minutes, Harden suddenly stood up, took the initiative to walk from one end of the bench to the other, and finally stopped in front of Howard.
"What?"
Howard couldn't believe his ears and raised his head in surprise.
"I mean, what can we wait until tonight's game is over? You don't want to see that guy continue to be so arrogant, right?"
As he said that, Harden turned his head and glanced at the opposite bench, fixating on Trail Blazers No. 36.
"make a deal!"
Howard naturally knew who the guy Harden was talking about. He looked up and looked at the other side, looking at the Oriental who had kicked him off the altar from his current position as the number one center. His eyes were on fire and he roared angrily.
A few minutes later, the game officially started and both sides entered the venue.
In the TNT studio, a luxurious commentary team composed of O'Neal, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, and Reggie Miller has also officially arrived.
As usual, Kenny Smith took the lead in bringing up a commonplace topic: "Do you think, who has a better chance of winning tonight, the Trail Blazers or the Mosaics?"
Big Shark adjusted his glasses and looked confident: "You know, as long as the king is here, I will always have only one answer, and that is that the Trail Blazers will win!"
O'Neal's serious look made the other three people in the commentary box burst into laughter.
"Shaq, you are going too far. At least you have to give James some face. After all, he is also the active first shooting guard!" Charles said.
"!" Reggie Miller shook his head after hearing this, "Charles, I guess in Shaq's heart, there will always be only one candidate for the first shooting guard, and that person is definitely not James Harden! I'm right, Shaq
gram?"
"Hahaha, man, you still understand me!"
With that said, O'Neal suddenly jumped down from his seat, ran behind Reggie Miller, and kissed his round head.
"Oh, Shet! Shaq, stop what you're doing, this is a serious show here!"
"Hahahaha, look at Miller's appearance, I guess Shaq hasn't brushed his teeth for at least three days!"
Kenny Smith and Buckley were making jokes on the sidelines. The director team opposite saw all this, but he did not stop it.
I lowered my head and saw, my dear, the ratings are rising steadily!
The camera returns to the field.
Jump ball in the center circle.
Affected by a back injury, Howard's running and jumping ability has deteriorated year by year. On the other hand, Wang Zelin has completed an epic purification this season.
Beep~~~
The referee blew the whistle and the basketball was thrown into the air.
The two took off at the same time, and in the next moment, Wang Zelin was easily a head above Howard and touched the ball first!
After landing, Wang Zelin instantly turned on the "Attack on Titan" mode and rushed towards the basket.
No one on Mosaic's side could stop Wang Zelin, and he got the Blazers off to a good start as always.
"boom--!"
Lillard's precise pass, the two's perfect coordination, and a beautiful mid-air dunk.
The atmosphere in the entire Rose Garden instantly boiled. This was Wang Zelin's first goal in the Christmas game!
Tonight's game will be broadcast live on TNT and Chaoting Channel.
At this time, the climax continued in the TNT studio, and the same was true in the live broadcast seats of the Imperial TV station on the other side.
Zhang Lili said excitedly: "Beautiful alley-oop! Lillard's pass was just right, and Zelin's dunk was even more shocking!"
"Howard is really in trouble. He can't keep up with the king's speed at all. He still doesn't have any of the spirit of Warcraft back then."
Yang Yi next to him shook his head.
On the field, the Mosaic team attacks.
Harden holds the ball in the backcourt, slowly advances forward, and begins to enter his most comfortable game rhythm.
However, after halftime, Harden's eyes burst out with a bright light, exuding high fighting spirit.
The Blazers' first goal just now was scored by boss Wang Zelin. The Mosaic team's first attack was Harden's plan to do it himself.
Since the relationship with Harden was temporarily eased before the game, Howard honestly ran from south to outside to open up space in the penalty area.
Harden played alone against Patton. Patton, who is 1.98 meters tall, has a typical shooting guard figure and is 2 centimeters taller than Harden. However, the latter's talent completely overwhelmed Patton. After dribbling under the crotch continuously, he directly relied on his strong
The body completed the sudden growth, and the short throw hit the target at close range.
2:2!
"Hey, what a neat breakthrough! Harden seems to be on full fire tonight!" Miller exclaimed.
So far, even though Harden is in a relationship with Khloe Kardashian, which has caused ups and downs in form, he is still averaging an astonishing 27.5 points per game, plus 5 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.5 steals!
Strictly speaking, his data is actually no less than last season's regular season, and even exceeded it.
But this is where people criticize him the most.
Harden was able to perform so fiercely when faced with Kardashian's pressing defense. Just imagine how powerful Harden would be after breaking through the pressing defense.
All the fans and media who were originally very optimistic about Harden are actually more angry because they hate iron!
Barkley watched the excitement and said without taking it too seriously: "Wang and Harden were at loggerheads at the beginning, and then the rivalry between the two sides became even more powerful!"
In just one round, the smell of gunpowder already appeared on the field.
Wang Zelin and Harden both refused to give in to each other.
Looking back, Wang Zelin held the ball in a high position and pretended to provide support, but in fact he broke through.
It's been a while since I met Howard, and I don't know if this happy beast has forgotten the fear of being ruled by him.
Peng! Peng!
Continuous powerful impacts caused Howard to continuously retreat.
Although Howard has a lot of tonnage, his lack of lower body strength is a permanent pain, which makes him unable to withstand Wang Zelin's violent force.
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted!
In the third sprint, Wang Zelin directly knocked away Howard and drove into the basket from the left.
After getting close to the basket, combine the ball, take off, dunk...
"boom--!"
Hit three times in a row and score easily.
Howard could only watch helplessly as Wang Zelin completed a brutal dunk. At this moment, he even forgot to take off to block the shot.
In other words, under Wang Zelin's strong suppression, he completely lost the courage to pursue and defend.
The former happy beast fell in love with winning and gradually learned to fight on the court, but his physical functions were no longer at their peak.
The monsters of the past will never come back again!
