As the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, the centers of both sides also stood in the center circle to prepare to jump the ball.

In the jump ball stage, before the game started, Howard and Bynum started to squirt.

Judging from their postures, the two of them have no intention of getting along peacefully, they are completely incompatible.

"Hey, look, this is the man who is called the No. 1 center in the league, the man who was pressed to the ground by Yao, haha, I'm so laughing to death."

"I really think your nickname should not be called Warcraft anymore, but rather a bad mood!!"

"Haha, boy, you'd better take care of yourself first. I hope you can still laugh after this game." Hearing Bynum's mocking of himself, Howard just smiled and put down his harsh words.

Because the game is about to begin, if the two really want to compete, then the final destination of the two on the field is the game.

Before the game started, the long-lost system sounded in Su Jiu's mind as usual.

【Ding ~ It was detected that the host is playing a competition and random selection is being performed for the host, please wait ~ 】

[Ding~The star experience card for this game has been drawn. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Tony Allen experience card for the 14-15 season.]

[The experience card will be completely invalid after the end of this game. I wish the host a happy basketball~]

When Su Jiu heard the sound coming from his mind, his eyes were obviously lit up.

Although Su Jiu is now a little numb to the experience card randomly allocated to himself by the system.

As he has been improving during this long season, when Su Jiu draws other experience cards, he can still retain some of the abilities he has integrated.

This also leads to Su Jiu's ability being far above the experience card.

This situation also made Su Jiu not as worried as he was at the beginning. After all, even if the experience was stuck, Su Jiu could still use his own ball dealer to deal with the court.

So once Su Jiu has no worries, his performance on the court will be more decisive.

However, even though I had been going through a season of training, when I learned that I had drawn Tony Allen in this game in 2014-15, Su Jiu still felt his eyes lit up, and he felt a little excited in his heart.

Because although Tony Allen is not a league superstar, his reputation in the league is well-known.

It can be said that Tony Allen is a player who is known in the league entirely by relying entirely on defense.

And he also successfully relied on his defensive ability to make his career reach a peak.

This can be seen from the later Grizzlies' willingness to retire for him, how recognized Tony Allen's defensive ability is.

Tony Allen has been selected into the All-Defensive Team six times in total during his entire career.

Among them, the best defense team was the first team three times, and the best defense team were the second team three times, and these can be said to be the honors that Tony Allen used his own strength to play step by step.

After all, Memphis can be regarded as a small ball market in the NBA, and there is no too much exposure here, so he was selected into the best defensive team six times, which is enough to prove Tony Allen's defensive ability on the back line.

Even among the many players who were named Kobe's Terminator in later generations, Tony Allen is definitely the man at the top.

Because this is a player who even Kobe has personally admitted that Tony Allen is the best defensive player in the entire league, and no one else.

And in the 14-15 season, this season can be said to be Tony Allen's last peak moment.

Because in this year, Tony Allen also won 88 first votes, and with 207 points, he was selected for the Best Defensive Team for the last time in his career.

It can be said that although this season is not necessarily the peak season for Tony Allen, Tony Allen this season is definitely at the top of his career.

Throughout the 14-15 season, Tony Allen was able to contribute 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.1 steals while averaging only 26.2 minutes per game.

It can be said that in less than 30 minutes of playing time, Tony Allen was able to do what he needed to do to the extreme.

And at the same time, Tony Allen became very stable on the offensive end in the 14-15 season.

Tony Allen's shooting percentage can be as high as 49.5% throughout the season, and even his three-point shooting percentage is also an astonishing 34.5%.

Although this has a lot to do with Tony Allen's low number of shots, being able to shoot such a hit rate is enough to prove that Tony Allen has grown to a very stable level on the offensive end.

At least compared to his early career, this offensive efficiency has obviously made a qualitative leap.

After all, Tony Allen, the previous three-point shooting percentage was 12.5% ​​in a single season...

When he learned that he was drawing Tony Allen in this game to experience the card, Su Jiu's entire mouth began to rise unconsciously.

And his whole body seemed to have changed, especially when his eyes were staring at Kobe Brante opposite him, he could no longer see too much fear from Su Jiu's eyes, but instead he had a hint of joke.

"Michael (Peitrus), give me that guy Kobe to this game. I want to go to the defensive end to play a one-on-one match with him."

After hearing Su Jiu's words, Pitrus was stunned and even suspected that something was wrong with his ears.

Damn, these days, there are still players who take the initiative to defend Kobe?!

Looking at Su Jiu, who looked serious in front of him, who didn't look like a joke at all, Pitrus was also confused.

However, after touching the back of his bare head, he still said weakly:

"But Coach Stan arranged for me to defend Kobe in this game. Although I also hope you can take over this task, will Coach Stan agree?!"

Pitrus is very clear about his positioning on the court. He is responsible for defending the opponent's sharp-knife level figures on the court.

Although Su Jiu's personal defensive ability is pretty good, the reason why Van Gundy did not use Su Jiu to defend the opponent's sharp knife character was to let him maintain more energy on the offensive end and contribute to the team.

So after hearing Su Jiu's words at this moment, even though Pitrus wanted to agree at once, Pitrus still felt something was wrong when he thought of Stan Van Gundy's face.

"It's okay. After the game, you can take the lead in defending Kobe for two rounds, and then I will find an opportunity to switch defenses with you."

"Don't worry, you can act at that time."

After looking at Su Jiu in front of him, he obviously had a look of trying enthusiastically. Although Pitrus felt that Su Jiu was a little strange today, he would rush to take over the task of defending Kobe.

However, when he thought of Kobe's offensive methods on the court, Pitrus was not polite at all and nodded directly:

"No problem, I'll tell you. If it weren't for the good relationship between us, I would never give you this opportunity."

Su Jiu: “………”

After the game started, Howard won the jump ball in the middle circle, and the ball rights were first obtained by the Magic.

Howard, who won the jump ball, also mocked Bynum who had been following him:

"Stain, just the jump height you just did. If you say you are 60 years old this year, I believe it. I really don't know who gave you the confidence, and you dare to speak wildly every day."

"Shut up, you guy, the game has just begun, I will let you know what the real center is!"

"Hey, then I'll wait. I hope you don't let me wait too long."

After halfway through the ball, facing Fisher who was defending himself at this moment, Su Jiu also directly handed the ball to Iverson beside him.

After Iverson came to the Magic, the two actually had a similar proportion of the weight in ball control.

Both of them will automatically play some off-ball stages for a period of time, but most of the time, Su Jiu will still hand over the ball to Iverson for processing and take the initiative to take on the role of off-ball.

Because compared to Iverson, Su Jiu's shooting ability on the off-ball side will definitely be even better.

In this game, Su Jiu drew the experience card of Tony Allen, so on the offensive end, Su Jiu took the initiative to give up the task of holding the ball and handed the ball over to Iverson for processing.

After all, finding a way to play that suits you best is often more efficient than having more ball rights.

After taking Su Jiu's pass, the defensive player Iverson faces at this moment is Kobe Bryant, the Lakers' star.

In fact, before the game began, the Zen master initially planned to use Ariza to defend against Iverson, thereby liberating some of Kobe's defensive consumption.

However, Ariza is 2.03 meters tall, so his center of gravity on the defensive end will be very high. If he goes to the misalignment of defense, he will likely be easily surpassed by Iverson.

Even though Ariza has excellent defensive awareness, the center of gravity on her body cannot be easily reversed.

Faced with this situation, Zen Master Jackson thought for a long time, but in the end, Kobe volunteered to compete with Iverson, which was the only way to solve Zen Master Jackson's defensive troubles.

After all, there is no one in the entire Lakers who is more suitable to defend Iverson than Kobe.

Facing Kobe, Iverson did not play individual singles as bravely as he was when he was young.

Because Iverson knew very well at this moment that time had caused a lot of trouble to his body, so if he insisted on playing Kobe alone, then his success rate would definitely be limited.

He reached out to ask Howard for a pick-and-roll. Using the pick-and-roll, Iverson was also very adept to get stuck in front of Kobe.

Since Howard went straight to the basket after pick-and-roll, Bynum in the penalty area did not dare to stand up easily to delay.

Faced with this situation, Iverson was very experienced. He kept half of Kobe behind him, and then, not far from the basket, suddenly raised his hand and rode a horse and shot an arrow.

This move is not Iverson's famous skill, but after coming to the Magic team, Iverson also added a lot of throw shots similar to those after pick-and-roll.

Because after pick-and-roll with Howard, this kind of attack is definitely the most efficient and fastest way to attack.

It can be said that Iverson, who is on the verge of retirement, has changed some offensive focus at this moment, from his original individual singles, he has learned how to use his team to seek help.

Because he also deeply realized that he was no longer the man who could lead a team to fight nine at his peak.

"Swish~"

As the sound of basketball entering the net sounded, Iverson's throw shot steadily entered the basket.

After hitting this ball, Iverson, who returned to defense, mischievously patted Kobe's butt.

Looking at Iverson's action, Kobe dodged while showing his signature smile.

Obviously, Kobe also thought of some of the past when he was able to match Iverson again.

In the next defensive round, the Lakers' offensive ball rights were basically in Kobe's hands.

However, what is slightly different from the past this season is that Kobe has increased his passes this season and reduced his offensive proportion.

This also led to the entire Lakers becoming more united at this moment. Whether it was Paul Gasol, the Sharks Bynum, or Odom on the bench, they all played very well.
