Chapter 166
It was evening.
Su Hao had already parked his car in the basement and slowly walked into the locker room. It is said that dressing before a game is the highest sense of ritual before a game, and Su Hao naturally could not miss this ritual.
Today he changed into a clean suit. As the saying goes, you look thin when you are dressed and you look muscular when you are undressed. Although Su Hao is strong, he is not as strong as those bodybuilders. The standard handsome man's figure made the media nearby drool.
Su Hao came to the locker room, changed his suit, put on his No. 7 jersey, and went on the court to warm up.
As the fans entered the stadium one after another, there were only a dozen minutes left before the game started.
The two commentators had also arrived at the commentary booth and started today's commentary.
Kenny Smith adjusted the microphone and spoke first:"A new year brings a new atmosphere. This is the first game after Christmas, the Lakers vs. the Bucks. The Lakers are in excellent form. I wonder if the Bucks can hold up?"
Amy Johnson coughed a few times into the microphone, and then said:"Today, an internal staff member revealed that Su Hao's first-day All-Star votes reached 300,000.
Because of Su Hao's fault phenomenon in the entire league, he directly led the second-place Curry by 200,000. This situation is really rare."
"Yes, you must understand that Su Hao is still a rookie, which shows how important the popularity brought by his strength is. Of course, it is also because he is a Chinese player, so he has buff blessings.
Anyway, no matter what, even I was slowly attracted to Su Hao. After all,......Looking at the entire NBA history, how many people can score 60+ twice in a week?"
"Then let's talk about the highlights of today's game.
Now Antetokounmpo is also getting better. I saw his previous interviews and he seemed a little immature. I didn't expect that he has become like this now, and he has become much stronger!"
"Well, it is said that two years after joining the league, he has still grown a few centimeters in height? I'm afraid that he will become an inside monster in the future.
Some people now call this rising Antetokounmpo the"Greek Monster". This title is really a bit like a big shark.
Su Hao looked at the tall Antetokounmpo as if he were seeing Godzilla, and thought to himself:"How can this guy be so tall?
But
I'm not afraid."
"Okay, the game starts now! Let’s introduce the starting players first!"
The live DJ sounded again, and everyone was immersed in the cheerful music.
"The Lakers start with point guard Su Hao, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, small forward Clarkson, power forward Randle, and center Jokic. The Bucks start with point guard OJ Mayo
(196 cm), shooting guard Khris Middleton (201 cm), small forward Jabari Parker (203 cm), power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (211 cm), and center Greg Monroe (211 cm)."
The height of the team's starting lineup can crush the height of the Lakers' starting lineup. Judging from this advantage alone, the Lakers will have a hard time playing.
The only big man Jokic has to bear the heavy burden in the interior, and guarding the restricted area is his biggest task today.
Jokic and Monroe stood in the center circle, and as the referee blew the whistle, both sides jumped up.
Monroe took the lead in grabbing the first ball and handed it to Mayo to handle the first attack.
Su Hao quickly landed at the top of the arc, waiting for Mayo to arrive and quickly pressed forward.
Mayo passed the ball to Middleton at the top of the arc on the right, and then hit the ground to pass the ball to Antetokounmpo who was blocking Randle's position in the low post on the right.
The size advantage was immediately revealed. Antetokounmpo was much taller than Randle, and with the crushing power, he quickly turned around and jumped up after continuous back-to-back shots. He easily hit a fingertip layup and got off to a good start.
"Isn't this a dunk? Antetokounmpo is playing so conservatively. We haven't seen the Greek monster yet."In this shot, Antetokounmpo's hand even exceeded the basket, and he completed a layup, as if he was provoking Randle.
Su Hao received the ball in the backcourt and came to the frontcourt with time.
Using Randle's pick-and-roll to form a mismatch singles, Antetokounmpo came forward to defend Su Hao who was holding the ball, which immediately made Su Hao perk up.
"Hostess mushroom! Greek monster, I want to feel your power.
Antetokounmpo took a stance and said:"Although you are fast, even if you pass me, can I let you lay up safely with my height?""
"Just try it and you will know. I am not just about speed."
Su Haosan threatened and prepared to launch an attack.
"Su Hao versus Antetokounmpo! Antetokounmpo is strong and his speed is not very bad. Even if Su Hao passes by Antetokounmpo, he will be chased!
Isn't this simply giving up Su Hao's basketball dream?
Su Hao chose to accelerate and sprint in from the right side. Antetokounmpo quickly reacted and wanted to keep up. However, Su Hao seemed to be slowing down and waiting for Antetokounmpo to catch up. He was going to...
That's right! He wants to challenge Antetokounmpo!"
Su Hao entered the penalty area and slowed down to give Giannis Antetokounmpo a tough confrontation. The unprepared Giannis Antetokounmpo was knocked out of position by Su Hao's sudden collision. He followed up with an emergency stop to score the goal. Singles success!
Antetokounmpo covered his chest, recalling Su Hao’s impact just now, and still couldn’t believe it.
"Was it Su Hao who gave you the power just now? A defender can have such strong power, it seems what is said on the Internet is true."
Then Mayo quickly counterattacked and handed it to Middleton in the bottom corner to hit a three-pointer.
The ball was transferred and Su Hao faced Antetokounmpo again.
This time, Su Hao also penetrated into the paint, not with the same tough force as before. , but quickly turned around after contacting Antetokounmpo, because he knew that Antetokounmpo was ready again. Due to inertia,
Su Hao turned around and hit the mid-range shot.
"Su Hao played really smart today. Antetokounmpo was fooled around. It seemed that the Greek monster was also playing like a monkey on Su Hao's side.
But Antetokounmpo here doesn't seem to be soft at all.
From the three-point line at the top of the arc, he strode to the penalty area, flew and dunked with one hand. How could he defend this one?"
On the bench.
Nick Young saw such an outrageous layup by Antetokounmpo. He took three steps directly from the three-point line and finished with a one-handed dunk.
He couldn't help but sigh that this physical fitness is the same as Su Hao, and it is also a historical level..
However.
Throughout the first half of the game, Su Hao found Antetokounmpo for singles, and gave Antetokounmpo a strong sense of strength.
Antetokounmpo even said:"I don't dare." I believe this kid is a point guard with both speed and strength. Even if I have height, it will be extremely difficult to defend him."
In a tough battle.
At the end of the first half, the Lakers entered the second half with a 7-point lead.
Su Hao and others returned to the locker room.
When Kobe talked about Antetokounmpo's physical fitness and performance, Su Hao's heart Comment:"I'm still a little immature now. If I'm at the level of two consecutive MVP+FMVP, I may not be able to take it."
