My goodness!

On the court, in front of the TV, watching O'Neal holding the ball at the high post, signaling teammates to move...

Goodness knows how many fans slapped themselves at that instant.

Because if they weren't dreaming...

Could such a scene really appear in reality?

"Hey, Kenny, aren't we broadcasting the All-Star game tonight?" Barkley asked Smith beside him at TNT station.

"I can assure you, Charles... we are live broadcasting the opening game of the 05/06 NBA regular season!" Smith replied after taking a deep breath.

American Airlines Arena.

For O'Neal, who always loved to be in the spotlight, there was no doubt...

He was having the time of his life.

Come on!

Let the damn cheers be even louder!

Thump, thump.

On the court, watching Big Z, who was more than two and a half body lengths away from him...

O'Neal even dribbled the ball between his legs twice while keeping his center of gravity low.

"Oh ho ho! Shaq is showing off, he's showing off!"

Barkley exclaimed at TNT station upon seeing this scene.

At the American Airlines Arena, the Cavaliers players felt that the Heat were going too far tonight.

Because for the Cavaliers players who didn't know what was coming...

O'Neal's move was nothing short of provocation.

At the high post, Big Z, who always had a stable mentality, ultimately resisted the urge to lunge forward.

Because reason told him that in that position, O'Neal couldn't pose any threat to the Cavaliers' defense except to please the fans.

However, as Butler and Payton started to move along the baselines...

The situation on the court changed in an instant.

These were two feigned attacks.

Their purpose was to cover Su Feng on the left wing so he could successfully use Hayes' screen to circle to the top of the arc to meet O'Neal.

Although Su Feng still attracted the full attention of the Cavaliers' defense at that moment, when he ran to O'Neal, James, who had been closely following him, sensed something was amiss.

Because if O'Neal and Su Feng completed a handoff at this position...

Then what should Big Z, who was still keeping a certain distance from O'Neal, do?

In the past two years, with the development of modern basketball, it had become a consensus that to maximize the power of the pick-and-roll, both players executing the pick-and-roll on the court must have a certain shooting ability.

But...

Just like there were exceptions to everything.

In Su Feng's original timeline, in the future, there would be a shooter who, even if his teammate didn't have shooting ability, could unleash his unparalleled power on the perimeter as long as his teammate could set a solid screen for him.

Because, unlike ordinary shooters...

This shooter's range extended past half-court, and as long as you could give him about 0.4 seconds of release time, he could complete the shot on the court.

In Su Feng's previous life, even before he transmigrated, Curry's pure screen-no-roll three-pointers had never been truly defended.

And now, at this moment...

What did the people of 2005 know about such tactics?

On the court, with a meter and a half to go before the top of the arc three-point line, at the moment O'Neal delayed Little Zhan Zhan's pursuit...

Su Feng, who took the ball from O'Neal, officially fired the first shot of the three-point era!

Range is space.

As long as your shooter's range is far enough.

Then the so-called traditional basketball system would be subverted as a result.

Leg push, hang time, wrist flick!

Swish!

"Too bad, LeBron.

You were just a little bit away from defending the greatest shooter on this planet!"

At the American Airlines Arena, after scoring the first point for the Heat, Su Feng smiled while making a three-point gesture towards James.

O'Neal, who had never thought that an assist could come so easily, immediately gave Su Feng a "Shark Celebration Splash."

"We are the best combination in the world, right, Su?" O'Neal smiled at Su Feng.

Upon hearing this...

It was a good thing O'Neal couldn't know what Su Feng was thinking at that moment.

Because at the moment O'Neal asked this question, O'Neal might have felt a little hopeless if he knew what Su Feng was thinking...

Su Feng's mind was full of that 'Pennsylvania Magician' who fought alongside him at Lower Merion.

"I guess so..."

After answering O'Neal vaguely, Su Feng hurriedly retreated to his own half.

On the court, the game continued.

Cavaliers possession, Little Zhan Zhan dribbled the ball past half-court.

This season, although Su Feng thought the offer that the Cavaliers made to Korver was a bit "heaven-defying", it had to be said that Korver's arrival had indeed released James' offensive power in a way.

In this play, after completing a pick-and-roll with Bosh, James dribbled straight into the paint.

The young version of Little Zhan Zhan had one of the best starting and acceleration abilities in the league, so Payton couldn't interfere with him in the first instance.

However, what surprised James was...

This ball...

He broke through even more easily than he had imagined.

No...

Was this really the Heat's defense in his memory?

On the court, after easily scoring two points for the Cavaliers through the breakthrough, Little Zhan Zhan was stunned.

In fact, after being ruthlessly beaten by Su Feng for an entire summer...

James didn't know how outrageous he was at the moment.

He had already surpassed his historical counterpart without realizing it.

Of course, the main reason why James was able to break through so easily in this play was related to the Heat's tactical strategy tonight.

On the court, as soon as James made the layup, the Heat quickly passed the baseline ball.

"Are you sure you don't need me to help defend your little brother, who looks like he's fifty years old?" O'Neal asked curiously when he learned of Coach Su's tactical arrangements before the game.

"No need, Shaq.

Put all your energy into organizing!

You are our protagonist on the court today." Su Feng said to O'Neal with a smile after hearing this.

Because if O'Neal went to help defend too much on the court, it would inevitably lead to his position being too far from the opponent's half.

So, in Su Feng's opinion, instead of O'Neal having the stamina to help defend, why not put it all into the offensive end?

Look, on the court.

Since O'Neal didn't choose to help defend in the previous play, when the Heat launched a fast break, starting from the free throw line, wouldn't he only need a few strides to reach the opponent's half?

At the American Airlines Arena, as soon as he dribbled the ball past half-court, Payton consciously handed the ball to O'Neal.

At this moment, O'Neal's ability to find openings, which he had honed over the years of being double-teamed on the court, was reflected.

Watching Su Feng cut into the Cavaliers' paint in the first instance, O'Neal, who had his hands raised high, directly threw the ball into the sky.

"I really like what Steve Nash said back then.

That is, to pass the ball to a player like Su, you just need to throw the ball blindly towards the opponent's basket."

On the court, watching the Gundam that had taken off from Miami airport, O'Neal smiled slightly.

In the paint.

Leaping up, grabbing the ball with one hand.

At this moment, Su Feng, who was overlooking the American Airlines Arena floor, was like the supreme king.

Bang!

2 to 5!

On the court, after Su Feng landed after catching O'Neal's alley-oop dunk, people realized...

The Heat only took five seconds from the start to the finish of this attack.

At TNT station, Barkley said with emotion: "This is the attack that the Raptors were best at back then!

Shaq and Su...

Tonight, they recreated Steve and Su's aerial connection on the court!"

Smith, on the other hand, said: "This is also the attack that the Sixers before Larry Brown coached were best at!

At that moment...

What Shaq and Su recreated... wasn't it also Allen and Su's fast-paced whirlwind on the court back then?"

At the American Airlines Arena, watching such a wonderful performance, how could the passionate Miami people restrain the excitement in their hearts?

On the court, after getting his second assist of the night, O'Neal was once again impressed by Su Feng.

Because before the start of tonight's game, O'Neal still had some doubts about the plan proposed by Su Feng for him to organize.

But now...

Awesome!

It's so damn awesome!

On the court, it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

The Duke of Cleveland easily brushed past Old Payton on the perimeter.

Comparing body types, Little Zhan Zhan at this time even looked more burly than the Heat's starting power forward, Hayes, so goodness knows how much pressure Payton was under when defending James?

In Payton's opinion, he didn't know who gave James the idea to play point guard.

Wasn't this just bullying people?

On the side, Su Feng knew that Payton was no match for James, so after James scored another two points for the Cavaliers, Su Feng hurriedly walked to the sidelines and said to Spoelstra, "Erik, Gary looks a little tired, let's let him rest."

Spoelstra: "..."

Damn it!

The game hasn't even started for two minutes, how is Payton already tired?

In fact, before the start of this game, Su Feng had intended to suggest that Spoelstra start Ariza instead of Payton.

But considering the face of the veteran Payton, and his dedication to follow him even without a salary, Su Feng finally gave up this idea.

But now...

If he let Little Zhan Zhan break through like this, how would Su Feng help James out of his confusion?

In the NBA, because managing a team is also an art, the benefits of starting Payton would definitely outweigh the disadvantages for the current Heat's personnel structure.

But if he wanted to win this opening game steadily, Su Feng knew that the Heat still had to respect James a little.

On the court, although Payton, who had a very high EQ, didn't hear the conversation between Su Feng and Spoelstra, he still showed a painful expression in the next second because he knew that he couldn't deal with James.

"Yo yo yo, is Payton injured?" At CCTV, Zhang Zhidao said with concern, watching Payton limp towards the Cavaliers' half.

On the side, after sighing deeply, Yu Jia also said: "Payton is already 37 years old this year, and it's easy for old players like him to get injured."

Look, what is an old actor's acting skill?

To be fair, if he didn't know that Payton's body was tougher than many young people, Su Feng would have almost thought that Payton was really injured.

On the court, the Heat attacked.

Because Butler drew a holding foul from Johnson when he was off the ball, the Heat immediately requested a substitution.

Ariza in, Payton out, who was tired.

After the substitution, the Heat continued to attack.

Watching O'Neal holding the ball at the high post, Big Z took the initiative to pounce on him this time.

As a result, at that moment, a surprising scene happened at the same time!

Good heavens!

O'Neal actually dribbled past Big Z's defensive zone like a guard!

As one of the centers with the best dribbling skills, O'Neal's small techniques were far better than people imagined.

Of course...

If he wasn't facing Big Z, O'Neal might not have dared to show off like this.

It wasn't that Big Z wasn't good enough as a center...

It was just that the group of inside players in his era were too beastly.

On the court, no one dared to stop O'Neal, who broke into the paint all the way.

Because of the inertia he had when he charged up...

No cap.

If you were really hit by O'Neal...

If you didn't break a bone, you'd have to be in pain for a long time.

"How is it? Is this ball cool or not?"

On the court, after scoring two points for the Heat, O'Neal smiled proudly.

However, just when O'Neal was looking forward to Su Feng praising him, Su Feng's face darkened and he said to him: "Shaq, if you want to play with me for a few more years, then I suggest that you better not play like this in the future."

In Su Feng's memory, there had been players in the future NBA who couldn't play like guards.

For example, Porzingis, who had contributed classic inside pick-and-pop tactics in New York and won the Skills Challenge.

But since Porzingis entered the league, he had basically been on the road to injury or had already been lying in bed.

Because this kind of dribbling breakthrough was too burdensome for these seven-footers, even if O'Neal really had such ability, Su Feng didn't want to see O'Neal spend the rest of his life playing basketball in a wheelchair.

"Okay, Su, I'll pay attention in the future."

On the court, O'Neal, who had been scolded by Su Feng, wasn't angry.

Because in his opinion, Su Feng was willing to scold him like this, but it was a sign of loving him. (Kobe: ???)

Back on the other end, the Cavaliers attacked.

Facing Ariza's close entanglement, Little Zhan Zhan's head started to hurt.

Don't look at Ariza's skinny appearance, but people like Ariza were the kind of people who often said that their bones were very hard.

Of course, Ariza wasn't James's opponent in terms of absolute strength.

But because Ariza's bones were hard enough, and his hands and feet were also long, as long as he could constantly harass James and not let James score as easily as he did just now, then he had already completed his mission.

In Su Feng's original timeline, James had a lot of 30+ games in his career, and a lot of 40+ games, but compared with Jordan and Kobe, his 50+ and 60+ games were obviously not enough.

Because his kind of two-point, two-point hard grind would usually reach his physical limit in the second half of the game.

In this life, under Su Feng's teaching, Little Zhan Zhan, who had learned the bald-eagle sniping in advance, was much higher than his historical counterpart in Su Feng's memory in terms of critical strike rate.

But under Ariza's relentless entanglement, even if James wanted to snipe, he had to get rid of Ariza's defense first.

In the NBA, people often only remember the "CBA moments" of players like Ariza.

But in fact, when Ariza played his role on the court, even if he was 0 for 10, Su Feng would be willing to keep him on the court.

Because the NBA was not only the stage for superstars.

The performance of these role players was equally important for a team that was determined to win the championship.

On the court, relying on Ariza, James still had the ball.

6 to 7.

There was no way, this kind of unreasonable ball-hugging strong kill was purely James's personal ability.

But compared to just now...

Ariza had forced Little Zhan Zhan to use all his strength in this ball.

On the court, after giving Ariza a thumbs up with satisfaction, Su Feng was responsible for dribbling the ball past half-court.

O'Neal still came up to the high post to receive the ball.

At this time, watching O'Neal, this flexible fat man, Big Z had already started cursing in his heart.

Because if he was crushed by O'Neal in the low post, then Big Z would admit it.

But...

Why the hell are you pulling me to the perimeter like a guard?

Because the NBA had the defensive three-second rule, Big Z couldn't stand still in the paint all the time.

As a result, in this ball...

Su Feng first pretended to go to the high post to meet O'Neal, and then, after using his eyes to deceive James, Su Feng suddenly turned around and went into the paint.

Because the Cavaliers' paint had lost the protection of Big Z, the Cavaliers couldn't form a deterrent to Su Feng with Bosh alone.

At the top of the arc, O'Neal saw the opportunity and turned around and passed the ball into the paint in time.

And at the moment of catching the ball, after using his upturned butt, which was enough to charm thousands of young girls, to push away James, Su Feng also cut down his personal 7th point of the night under the basket!

The results of Grover's extreme training for Su Feng this summer were fully revealed at this moment.

At TNT station, Barkley said with emotion: "Steve once told me...

The Su without the ball...

Is far more terrifying than the Su with the ball!"
