"Barkley Skill Pack"
Li Fei was practically buzzing with excitement.
Barkley had been the toughest man of the '90s. He'd managed to win a regular-season MVP in an era ruled by Michael Jordan, which showed just how much that award meant.
As for Sir Charles's skill set, there was certainly plenty to choose from. The move everyone knew was his signature Wild Boar Butt-Bump.
But the Flying Pig had far more in his arsenal than that.
His ball-handling, passing, playmaking, and mid- and long-range shooting were all excellent. His low-post game, where he backed opponents down with his backside, left the entire league unable to last three seconds.
His rebounding needed no introduction, either. At under 1.98 meters tall, he'd dominated the paint in the '90s and averaged more than ten rebounds a game. Those numbers couldn't be explained by using his backside to box people out alone.
His rebounding instincts and ability to leap repeatedly were both terrifying.
"What kind of skill will it be?"
Li Fei was looking forward to finding out.
But he knew that beating the Flying Pig wouldn't be easy for him right now.
If he could back Barkley down in the low post, his odds would be pretty good. No matter how talented the Flying Pig was, he couldn't stop a 2.24-meter player from right under the basket.
But one-on-one started beyond the three-point line. At this stage, Li Fei could use his dribbling to shake off players who were 2.1 or 2.2 meters tall. Barkley, at only 1.98 meters, could often play small forward or even shooting guard, and his lateral quickness wasn't a weakness.
It wouldn't be easy to handle the Flying Pig on defense, either. Don't underestimate an NBA MVP. Li Fei might really be unable to handle Barkley's backside.
