Bishop of the Devil

O'Neal, the king of jump balls, and the opponent's blue-collar center Johnson walked to the midfield line, preparing to execute the jump ball!

It is worth mentioning that in the previous six preseason games, O'Neal never lost a jump ball and won all of his opponents!

This time was no exception. As soon as Johnson jumped up and stretched out his arm, O'Neal had already passed the ball to his own Kobe!

Although O'Neal is young, his bounce speed is extremely amazing, coupled with his good height and wingspan, it is not difficult to explain that he is invincible in the jump ball.

The player playing against Kobe is Mark Jackson...

Die-hard fans of Universe Yong will definitely be familiar with this name. He was at the helm of the Warriors before Cole coached the Warriors, and he was at the helm until the 13-14 season...

Well, then in the 14-15 season, he was fired, and Cole led the team to win the championship...

Cole's main lineup for winning the championship, Curry, Tang Shen, Zhui Dan and Brother No. 1, were all created by this unlucky guy...

Of course, if Mark Jackson is still coaching, Universe Yong may not be able to win the championship. From this point of view, Cole is still quite capable.

In addition, he is more famous for his big butt, and he has the same playing style as Barkley. He violates this rule by turning his back for five seconds. Although it is called Barkley's Law, it actually came about because of Mark Jackson.

…

Kobe pushed forward slowly and without any impatience.

He knew it was useless to be impatient. Anyway, he could take a total of twelve shots in a game. He might as well slow down the pace as much as possible, and then the proportion of his shot rounds could be higher...

When the ball reaches the frontcourt, Robinson immediately steps forward to set a pick-and-roll for Kobe. This is a common offensive method for the Trail Blazers during the preseason.

Robinson does a pick-and-roll, and if Kobe can get rid of the defender with the ball, he will take a shot directly, or pass it to a teammate in a better position!

And if he can't get rid of the defender, Kobe will pass back to Robinson...

…

As soon as Robinson went to set up a pick-and-roll for Kobe, Nuggets boss McDyess immediately rushed out of the paint and prepared to participate in the defense.

Da Ben was confused...

Just let yourself go? !

Isn’t it a bit too contemptuous...

Treat yourself like air? !

…

The Trail Blazers studied the Nuggets team before the game, and Nuggets head coach Bernie Bickerstaff must also have studied the Trail Blazers' lineup.

It is a well-known fact that Ben has no offensive ability. Otherwise, his draft prospects would not have been so bad.

Therefore, Bernie directly ordered McDyess to immediately join the defense when encountering the Trail Blazers playing pick-and-roll from the outside, and directly give up the big money...

Anyway, Ben doesn't have a basket. Even if the ball gets to him, he will definitely get the basket to score points.

And it's not that easy to score points in front of the seven-foot blue-collar center Johnson...

…

"The opponent's attack was very targeted. This Bernie is not simple!" Carlisle sat next to Richard and said softly.

Richard nodded calmly. There is no doubt that Bernie's defensive tactics are extremely clever!

Completely abandoning the defense of this point, the defensive end formed a situation of five defenses and four defenses!

Quite clever!

But Richard was dismissive. Do you really think you can win this game by giving up your defense? Then Bernie really underestimated the Trail Blazers...

"Look at it, this kind of stuff I left behind from playing in the NCAA is not worth mentioning!" Richard said with a chuckle.

…

Big Ben on the field is very sad at the moment...

Being completely ignored by others, it would be strange not to feel sad!

Along with sadness, there is also a hint of anger!

Do you look down on me? !

Well, today let you Nuggets taste the price of looking down on Big Ben!

"Jermaine, get ready! Just catch the ball and dunk it!" Big Ben roared at O'Neal Jr. under the basket!

Little O'Neal was a little confused. Why do you call me a dunk after catching the ball? I wanted to dunk, but the opponent Johnson was much stronger than me, and I couldn't squeeze out of the way...

There is no room to take off, unless you are twenty centimeters taller, so that you can stand and dunk without taking off!

Next, O'Neal's doubts were immediately solved!

Ben, who was completely unguarded, raised his chest and steel-like muscles and rushed directly into the penalty area to fight Johnson...

Johnson, who had been in the league for his fourth year, saw Ben running towards him and didn't take it seriously.

But then, he realized something was wrong...

O'Neal, who was originally stuck, was immediately freed. Johnson still wanted to squeeze out Ben, and then continued to defend O'Neal, but in the end, he couldn't squeeze out Ben at all!

Ben's peak power ranks among the top five in NBA history!

Even though he is not at his peak now, during those two years in the NCAA, he listened to Richard and kept polishing his strength, so the gap between his current strength level and his peak level is not particularly big!

There's no way a Johnson can handle this!

…

Kobe, who used Robinson's pick-and-roll from the outside, saw O'Neal Jr. under the basket get a chance!

He immediately passed the ball over, and after receiving the ball, O'Neal dunked on the spot without saying a word!

Kobe still has this bit of vision, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to achieve such great achievements in the NBA.

…

This attack round seems to take a long time, but in fact it only takes a moment!

After McDyess gave up Ben and participated in the pick-and-roll, Ben immediately rushed inside!

By the time McDyess participated in the pick-and-roll defense, Ben had already solved Johnson at the basket, and Kobe's pass followed!

Then, there was O'Neal's open dunk!

In an instant, the Blazers completed an extremely easy position battle!

The Blazers fans at the scene cheered. It was really enjoyable to have such a powerful dunk right at the beginning.

"God, how strong is Ben's power?! This is simply too terrifying!" Stevens secretly exclaimed next to Richard!

In just a moment, he eliminated the opponent's blue-collar center. What a terrifying power!

Inside the door to see the door, the layman to watch the fun……

Fans only noticed Kobe's "wonderful pass" and O'Neal's dunk at the basket, but they ignored Big Ben's contribution in this offensive round!

It can be said that Ben is the biggest contributor to the success of this offensive round!

Stevens could obviously understand this, so he sighed...

That was a blue-collar center, a blue-collar rough guy who specialized in doing the dirty work behind the basket. He relied on his tonnage to make a living. He was solved so easily by Big Ben. No wonder Stevens was secretly dumbfounded!

Richard burst out laughing. Stevens asked a good question!

"Young man, Da Ben's power is beyond your imagination. You know nothing about Da Ben's power!"

"Let's put it this way, Ben's power at his peak will definitely be stronger than Shaq's!"

"Do you know what this means?"

As soon as Richard finished speaking, the entire Trail Blazers bench was boiling...

What? ! Is Big Ben's peak strength stronger than Shaq's bug? ! How can this be!
