O'Neal's expression was the same as Barkley's.
Although he wasn't facing the peak Jordan on the court, the feeling was unmistakable.
So, had Hansen participated in some mysterious human body research at East University this past summer?
Members of the Heat Team, though never having faced Jordan directly, were already feeling a tremendous amount of pressure, not just Wade alone.
However, the good news was that the other players on the Grizzlies didn't seem to be in top form.
Randolph's low-post offense, defended by Bosh, missed the basket.
Turning around, Durant took the ball as the Grizzlies switched their defense; facing Randolph from mid-range, he scored the first points for the Heat Team.
With no unnecessary chatter, Hansen went straight up the court and backed up against Wade, asking for the ball.
After getting the ball, he faced Wade, called Little Gasol for a screen, and then broke through directly, jumping up for a layup in front of Perkins.
