But these white centers were the least capable of guarding Ah Gan. Once Gan Guoyang received the ball, he made a move against Sikma, pivoting to face the basket. With a right-hand dribble, he broke through the middle and suddenly unleashed a move hook shot, easily scoring two points.
Karlsson couldn't keep up with Gan Guoyang's lateral movement, and didn't even have time to interfere. The Bulls' other players didn't come to help on defense either, allowing a wide gap in the middle, which Gan exploited with an easy hook shot.
It was rare for Jordan to get angry at his teammates, but he yelled, "You should have blocked his middle route on that play! Don't let him get an easy hook shot off!"
The move hook's main characteristic is that it starts off looking like a drive but suddenly turns into a hook shot without warning.
