NBA, Yao Ming is back!

The game continued, and the ball was in the hands of the Sharks.

Everyone thought Yao Ming was in top form, having just grabbed several rebounds and made several defensive plays, and that the ball should be steadily passed to him so that he could continue to hold back Battier in the paint.

But those playing on the court are ultimately veteran players, and their strategies are still the same old ones.

After the serve, the ball continued to circulate rapidly on the perimeter. Saulius habitually dribbled the ball and went one-on-one, without even glancing at Yao Ming's position in the paint. He then forcefully jumped and shot against the defense.

The basketball hoop crashed with a loud bang.

The basketball bounced heavily off the front end, flying high and far, directly towards the perimeter three-point line. Everyone inside jumped but missed, and no one could touch the ball.

The backboard was completely in disarray.

The Beijing team's perimeter players reacted quickly, securing the long rebound and launching a full-speed fast break.

This completely disrupted the Great Shark's defensive rhythm.

Upon seeing this, Bart immediately strode forward and sprinted up the court with the rest of the team.

Despite his large size, he was incredibly active and quick on his feet in this round, reminiscent of a top star in a future game who could quickly follow up with a fast break.

It was only 1996, not yet the slow-moving bus that everyone was familiar with.

It's still a big bus that you can floor.

It's not an old car.

The second center of the Beijing team is very quick-witted. He immediately saw the tactical opportunity and rushed up diagonally to block Yao Ming's way back on defense, deliberately delaying and blocking him, and firmly holding his position to prevent Yao Ming from easily rushing over to help protect the rim.

Yao Ming felt a chill and immediately exerted his strength to resist.

He weighs 115 kilograms, which is far greater than his peers, and his strength is also outstanding among young players.

But the opposing center is also a regular inside tank, with considerable size.

In that mere second or so of delay, the strength had been almost used up, and the momentum of the body lurching forward could not be dispelled.

The other party didn't intend to completely stop him; delaying him was enough.

At this moment, Bartholomew faced Saulius.

A hard top.

At this moment, Battier no longer competed with Yao Ming in terms of jumping ability, height, or wingspan.

He lowered his waist, pressed his back against the ground, and shifted his center of gravity.

The core strength of the whole body is instantly maximized.

His unique ability was activated instantly.

With the support of Mongolian wrestling traditions, its natural foundation is stable, and its power increases dramatically in an instant.

The massive body, which had been gathering strength for a long time, suddenly sank and leaned back.

thump—

A real clash of forces.

Saulius's physique was simply no match for Battier, a player considered strong even in the NBA.

Faced with this overwhelming onslaught, Saulius involuntarily took a small step back.

The defensive position was instantly breached.

Bartel reached out and scored.

That little bit of space was more than enough for Battier to finish the attack.

His rhythm was practiced, his movements steady, neither flashy nor overly aggressive; he simply and steadily sent the ball into the basket.

That's what he's going to do.

Anyway, it's two points.

Why bother with all that fancy stuff?

I'm too lazy to even dunk.

Two points were easily added to the account.

The score was updated instantly: 42 to 29.

The point difference has returned to thirteen points.

Bater looked up at Yao Ming, waved his short arm lightly, and gave a clear signal in his eyes.

did you see it?

Having long arms is useless.

In basketball, strength ultimately prevails.

In the next round, the Shanghai Sharks' offense continued to falter.

Saulius was impatient and wanted to close the gap immediately. He took the ball and tried to shoot one-on-one, but missed again, and the rebound was firmly secured by the Beijing team.

It was another quick ball possession and another transition attack.

Battier continued to follow up, still having the second center position himself early to delay Yao Ming.

Yao Ming squeezed through with great effort this time.

They pushed the barrier open, and then immediately went to provide support.

But at this time...

Yao Ming had just forcefully pushed people aside, and his strength was exhausted. His center of gravity was unstable, and he was propelled forward by inertia. He didn't have time to regain his footing.

Moreover, he is currently too underweight.

Even against centers with NBA-level strength, Battier is considered excellent.

They undoubtedly suffered a loss.

Battier once again positioned himself in the low post and stood firmly with his back to the goal.

This is the second time I've unlocked my unique skill.

The overwhelming force pressed down once more.

This time, Yao Ming couldn't even withstand half a step and was pushed back half a body length.

This half-body distance is for Batel.

That's enough.

He was naturally skilled at making layups through gaps in the defense.

Bartel calmly took the shot and scored two more points.

44:29.

The point difference was widened to fifteen points again.

After scoring this goal, Batel finally relaxed, raised his arm, and gently showed off his strong upper arm muscles, his face displaying the unique hearty pride of a grassland man.

He looked up at Yao Ming in front of him, his voice not loud, but every word clear, reaching Yao Ming's ears.

"Kid, welcome to the CBA."

I can finally speak.

This feels so good.

These are lines I've been holding back for so long.

It's finally usable.

Yao Ming was stunned for a moment.

I was momentarily stunned.

"Welcome to the NBA"—he'd heard that phrase countless times in his past life.

Welcome to the CBA?

This is really something new.

He looked up and examined Batel again.

At that moment, he had to admit to himself.

The bus driver is indeed very clever.

He's not just a reckless brute.

If you can't beat someone with height and wingspan, immediately switch tactics, call for teammates to set screens, delay, and box out, use tactics to make up for the talent gap, use experience to beat rookies, and use strength to exploit weaknesses in the center of gravity.

No wonder he was destined to enter the NBA, become Shaq's sparring partner, and go head-to-head with the league's top centers.

At his peak, Butler's power was truly NBA-level.

That classic moment circulating online, the image of him head-on knocking down peak Shaquille O'Neal, isn't just hype; it's the result of real training and hard work.

Yao Ming knew this in his heart.

I'm not heavy enough, not big enough, and not experienced enough in combat.

In a head-on, physical contest, at this stage, we simply cannot win.

With a change of heart, Yao Ming stopped relying on visual observation and judgment, and directly opened the superstar imitation system panel in his mind.

Previously, when playing against regular players, the opponents didn't have any special skills, so activating the system was useless; the game would end in the blink of an eye.

It went too smoothly when they beat Wang Zhizhi.

The suspense quickly faded away.

Battier, a shrewd and experienced veteran, is at the peak of his career.

In addition, the Shanghai team is not very good to begin with.

He started by finding an opening and attacking.

On the basketball court, if you're focused, you can spot all sorts of mismatches and misplacements.

Even if your original offensive capabilities aren't that strong, as long as you can effectively manage your forces, you can still defeat opponents who aren't as strong.

They can still achieve impressive results and statistics.

This brings us back to our son of Akron.

This point has been elevated to its extreme.

Moreover, almost all young players will start to learn from him in this regard.

So who says he hasn't made huge contributions and changes to the NBA?

It's obviously there.

Yao Ming opened his system interface to Battelle.

Skill Name: [Grassland Iron Mountain Lean Level 2]

Skill Level: A (Exclusive to peak Battier, during his prime in the 1996-97 season)

Skill type: Slight increase in low-post back-to-the-basket combat (passive, can be triggered actively)

Triggering conditions: The player can activate the feature when holding the ball in the low post with their back to the defender for ≥2 seconds and the distance between their body and the defender is ≤0.5 meters.

The name of the skill struck him as somewhat amusing.

But upon reflection, it does indeed fit Batel's description.

Click to see more details.

Base strength increase: +3.1%.

After being triggered, it provides a slight boost, slightly enhancing stability in low-post back-to-the-basket situations and offering a mild suppressive effect against lighter interior players.

Lower body stability increased by 2.6%.

Its own center of gravity has been slightly improved to resist interference, making it less likely to lose its center of gravity when countered by lightweight blocking devices.

Increase in efficiency of back-to-back propulsion: +1.7%.

The pace of advancing towards the basket from the low post has become slightly more stable, and the deceleration when touched by help defense has decreased slightly.

Increase in attack potential: +1.2%

In the midst of the confrontation, a slight opening can be created to compensate for the short arm's weakness.

The opponent's weakness is that the heavier the opponent is, the more stable their lower body is, and the less effective the skill will be.

Some even thoughtfully posted the side effects.

Triggering this effect consumes 9% of your stamina; after it ends, your movement speed decreases by 2.2% for a short period.

Continuous use will continue to slightly reduce performance; Battelle should not be used indiscriminately.

Ok.

It smells like a tour bus.

And you're right next to this skill.

It says two words.

Yao Ming's heart was pounding with excitement.

These two words are—

clone.
