God of NBA point guards

Chapter 547 Conflict broke out on the field
On the 7th, the G99 match day of the 00/1 season finals.

"We can expect that when facing the Iron Fist King, Gary Payton's performance should be slightly better than that of a dog." New York Times.

"Um..."

When Payton saw the news, he was furious.

Since the morning, countless people have driven from all over the Seattle metropolitan area to the Central Stadium in the city center. By noon, the outside of the stadium was already overcrowded.

The Central Gymnasium had to open all restrooms, otherwise the entire gymnasium might be enveloped in the smell of feces and urine.

Since Zhou Quan's return, the SuperSonics have regained their position as Seattle's No. [-] professional sports team.

Regardless of comparisons in terms of attendance, ratings, national live broadcasts, team peripheral sales, sponsorship income, revenue, etc., it ranks first, firmly suppressing the teams in the other three major leagues.

At 06:30 in the afternoon, Zhou Quan's car arrived outside the stadium.

"Iron Fist! Iron Fist..."

The cheers suddenly started, getting louder and louder, and gradually turned into shouts, with the potential to shake the earth.

Following Zhou Quan were some friends’ cars, filing into the parking lot.

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting list.

Heat: P.J. Brown, Mourning, Jamal Mashburn, Dan Malley, Gary Payton

SuperSonics: Ben Wallace, Campbell, Bowen, Brent Barry, Zhou Quan
In the NBC commentary box, Elgin Baylor said: "The media is currently optimistic about the Sonics. In fact, the Heat are very strong.

Gary Payton is the Heat's leading scorer. He averaged 24 points per game in the regular season and shot 44.8% from the field. In the first three rounds of the playoffs, he averaged 25.5 points per game and shot 44.2% from the field.

Mourning is the second scoring point. He averaged 22 points and 9.5 rebounds per game in the regular season and shot 55% from the field. In the playoffs, he averaged 21 points and 10 rebounds per game and shot 48.4% from the field.

Mashburn is the third scoring point, averaging 17.5 points per game in the playoffs and shooting 40% from the field.

The Heat have three people scoring in double figures, two of whom average 20+ points per game. From this point of view, the SuperSonics are not as good as the Heat. Only one of the Sonics averages 20+ points per game. "

Oscar Robertson said: "But Elgin, I'm still more optimistic about the Sonics sweeping the championship."

"Cough cough..."

When he heard the first half of the sentence, Elgin Baylor was fine, but Robertson's words "sweep and win the championship" came up later, and he choked on his own saliva.

Robertson smiled and said: "Don't be surprised, Elgin, look at the Heat's top three scoring points, no one has a field goal percentage of more than [-]%.

Including the inside line, insufficient offensive efficiency is the Heat's biggest problem facing the SuperSonics. Can you imagine the situation the Heat faced under the crazy firepower of the Iron Fist King?
On the defensive end, they will be reduced to rubbish by the super high offensive efficiency of the Iron Fist King.Offensively, how many points do you think the gloves can score against King of Iron Fist? "

Don't tell me about the defense of the gloves. The gloves can't even guard Michael Jordan, let alone the Iron Fist King who is more threatening with the ball?He has never taken advantage of King of Iron Fist, and he has always been the one who was beaten. "

In the CCTV commentary box, Zhang Lili analyzed: "The Heat's biggest problem is that they don't have anyone with the ball to attack, and they rely heavily on Payton's organization. It is questionable what kind of performance Payton can perform when facing Zhou Quan."

Xu Jicheng said: "PJ Brown is just a blue-collar player, Mourning is weak in offense and strong in defense, but I think the small forward monster Marshburn is good. He is good at shooting, breakthrough, and three-pointers, and he also has good offensive skills with the ball."

Zhang Lijia shook his head and said: "He is not taken seriously in the Heat. He is not as good as when he was in the Mavericks. Moreover, his efficiency in the playoffs is average. Bowen is dedicated to guarding him, so he should not be able to attack the SuperSonics." "

In the player channel, the two teams meet in the starting lineup.

NBC's live camera was overhead, and the cameraman was expecting something to happen.

After arriving, Gary Payton looked at Zhou Quan unconvinced and said: "Iron Fist, you won't know until you fight."

Zhou Quan smiled, but had no interest in talking and was too lazy to pay attention to this foul mouth.

Payton is so angry, am I not qualified to let you speak?
Moning observed Zhou Quan with extremely complicated emotions.

This Chinese, who entered the league a year earlier than him, has already been covered with honors, spanning three worlds, and has become one of the greatest athletes in the world. However, he has yet to achieve nothing. This huge sense of disparity is precisely what makes him the greatest athlete in the world. This is what makes him feel complicated.

At 08:30, the game officially started.

Jump ball, P.J. Brown and Campbell jump ball, Seattle offense.

Zhou Quan advanced with the ball, near the top of the arc, and suddenly broke through with a one-handed feint.

Gary Payton was shaken for a moment, and the next moment, when he turned to follow Zhou Quan, he was half a step behind.

He secretly reached out and grabbed Zhou Quan's jersey, then took the opportunity to catch up, hit Zhou Quan with his chest, and started to challenge Zhou Quan.

When Zhou Quan reached the left end of the free throw line, his breakthrough speed slowed down.

At this time, Mourning pounced fiercely from the basket, and PJ Brown, who was pulled to the right waist position by Campbell, immediately covered the basket to fill the gap left by Mourning.

Zhou Quan stopped and stood up, but the moment he took action, Mourning flew towards him from the opposite side and swung his arm towards him.

"Snapped!"

He was hit back to the floor with the ball, took three steps back and almost fell.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle sounded.

"Oh, isn't this action too big?" Xu Jicheng said in surprise.

"Pat Riley has this style in the Knicks and Heat." Zhang Lili said.

On the court, Mourning looked at Zhou Quan with indifferent eyes, then turned around and walked to the right sideline of the paint area.

Zhou Quan touched his right wrist and was hit by Mourning's arm, and then his head was hit with great force.

"Clap clap clap..."

On the sidelines, Pat Riley, who had a gentlemanly smile on his face, was applauding.

Zhou Quan glanced at Pat Riley, then at Mourning, and couldn't help but smile.

The referee was nearby, and he said to Ben Wallace and others: "Guys, have you seen it? This is their defensive style tonight, so we must be tit-for-tat. If they are tough, we must be tougher than them. Do you all understand?"

"clear."

A fierce look flashed across Ben Wallace's face, and he was the first to roar, followed by others.

Zhou Quan's voice was so loud that everyone nearby heard it. A group of cheerleaders behind the baseline screamed excitedly and performed a leg-raising dance, and the media gallery was also buzzing.

Seeing the Iron Fist King's reaction so fiercely and without any concession, Mourning and Payton looked at each other with a hint of gloom in their eyes.

Zhou Quan then made one of two free throws, but Mourning hit his wrist, affecting his feel.

0:1, the Heat attack.

Payton ran in the backcourt to catch the ball, and Zhou Quan pursued him at a faster speed, always cutting off the angle between Payton and the server PJ Brown. Finally, Payton used Mashburn's screen to catch the ball. The ball was almost called a five-second violation.

Payton entered the frontcourt with the ball, and when he was near the top of the arc, Zhou Quan used a threatening poke to force him to turn around and protect the ball.

Then Zhou Quan quickly stuck to Payton's back and went up to fight. The strong force squeezed Payton to the point where he could no longer stand and could only dribble away immediately.

"The Iron Fist King weighs 97 kilograms, and Gary Payton only weighs 82 kilograms. The 15 kilogram tonnage difference is too big." Robertson said.

"The tonnage is small, but the speed is not as good as the Iron Fist King. This is the Super Talent of the Iron Fist King." Elgin Baylor said.

On the court, Payton moved to the right, and Zhou Quan followed, always blocking Payton's front, preventing him from advancing.

"Iron Fist, do you like me, following me so closely?" Payton's foul mouth began to spout trash talk.

However, Zhou Quan always smiled but said nothing, and did not respond to Payton's trash talk at all.

"Damn bastard, don't you look down on me?" This made Payton even more embarrassed.As the attack time approached, he was forced to pass the ball to Mashburn who ran to the top of the key.

"Snapped!"

But at the moment of passing the ball, Zhou Quan's big hand quickly cut into the passing route and completed the interception.

"Beautiful!" Zhang Lili praised.

"Looking at the replay, before Payton's ball was passed, Zhou Quan had already made an accurate prediction. He predicted that Payton was going to pass the ball to Mashburn at the top of the arc, and he jumped in first." Xu Jicheng said loudly .

"Snapped!"

Zhou Quan quickly came down with the ball, and when he got up to dunk in the paint, Gary Payton knocked him down with an arm from behind.

This time, he was hit on the floor and fell on his back.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle blows again.

"Buzzing..."

There was a huge noise in the Central Gymnasium, and countless abuses were sprayed at Payton.

But the gloves didn't matter, he shrugged, glanced disdainfully at Zhou Quan on the floor, and then turned around.

Zhou Quan got up, his face very cold.

He knew what the Heat wanted to do. They just wanted to use the rules to anger him, and then expel him from the game one by one.

However, he has absolute confidence. Even if he hits Payton now, the referee will not be able to send him off. Stern will never allow the finals to happen without him.

But how could he be violent to Payton? He was a minor character and was not qualified to do it. It was completely uneconomical.

He glanced at Rodman, who had already stood up from the bench. Rodman understood and immediately yelled at Ben Wallace: "Ben, fuck him!"

"what?"

Payton was startled, and quickly turned around to look, and saw a black iron-like muscle stick rushing towards him.

"Damn!"

He turned around and wanted to run.

"Run what?"

But at this moment, Zhou Quan hugged Payton from behind and held Payton tightly in his arms, even tying up his two arms, making Payton unable to move.

"Iron Fist, let me go quickly." Payton was anxious.

"Oh!"

Ben Wallace's big fist hit Payton in the face.

"Ouch!"

Payton screamed.

"Oh!"

Ben Wallace continued to pump his fist.

"Oh oh oh, there's a fight!" Robertson said in surprise.

"The referees rushed up. And security..." Elgin Baylor shouted.

"Haha, is Iron Fist King following Barkley?" Robertson laughed.

"Gary!"

On the court, seeing Payton being beaten, Mourning and others became anxious and rushed over.

"Mo Ning, if you dare to take action, then I am acting in self-defense." Zhou Quan shouted loudly.

Who has the guts to face the iron fist of the heavyweight unified king?What's more, it's an iron fist without gloves. Even if Tyson gets punched, he may be concussed.

Zhou Quan's words were like a brake, causing Mourning and others to stop. They looked at Pat Riley in a panic, not knowing what to do.

On the sidelines, Pat Riley also opened his mouth.

At this time, three referees rushed over and separated the two sides. A team of security quickly entered the field and controlled the situation.

Ben Wallace was pulled away by two big and thick security guards, but he had already punched Gary Payton four times.

Payton's face was swollen. He was hugged from behind by Zhou Quan. He couldn't even dodge. He was punched four times. He was punched so hard that stars appeared in his eyes and he howled miserably.

Zhou Quan pushed forward with both hands. Payton was knocked unconscious and couldn't stand at all. He fell to the floor like a dog.

"Bastard!"

Payton raised his head in embarrassment, his nose was broken and his face was red.

"Gary!"

Mourning ran up and pulled Payton up.

"King of Iron Fist, you are despicable!"

Payton looked at the three Zhou Quan in front of him. This bastard was holding him and not allowing him to fight back. He was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

Zhou Quan didn't bother to look at Payton and said to the referee: "Sir, after I took off, he knocked me down from behind without any protective action. I think it was a serious flagrant foul. He was trying to destroy my body." Career, what do you think?”

The referee nodded, glanced at Payton coldly, and said to Zhou Quan: "Iron Fist King, the league will never allow this kind of malicious foul."

After saying that, he walked up to Payton.

"..."

Payton was stunned when he saw the second-level foul gesture made by the referee.

The referee then fined Ben Wallace for a second-level flagrant foul.

Then he ran to the sidelines and gave Rodman a technical foul.

Rodman didn't bother to say anything, just a T. He had eaten it countless times.

Mourning and others looked at Pat Riley on the sidelines, and Riley spread his hands helplessly.

He knew that it was impossible for the referee to punish the King of Iron Fist, let alone Ben Wallace who hit someone. Even if the King of Iron Fist hit someone, for the sake of ratings, he would not be punished.

What he expected was that after the Iron Fist King took action, he would be given a first-level flagrant foul to tie the Iron Fist King's hands and feet.

But unfortunately, the Iron Fist King was too calm, and it was Ben Wallace who took action, so his plan failed.

"Pat Riley's tough defense is on the wrong target. If Mourning and Payton injure the Iron Fist King, neither he nor the Heat will be able to take advantage of it. They will definitely become public enemies of the league." Elgin Baylor said .

"Not only the public enemies of the league, but also all the league's sponsors and television broadcasters will dislike them." Robertson added.

"Without Payton, the Heat have nothing to play in this game and will definitely lose." Elgin Baylor said.

"If the league pursues a penalty, we won't be able to play at the end of the game. The fortune teller made the wrong calculation and made this finals a joke." Robertson said.
