In fact, Hansen was one of only three players who had scored over 50 points in a playoff game.
Kobe, once again, managed to pull up for a jump shot after getting past Guy, but this time, his shot finally went askew.
Turning back, Ci Shiping gritted his teeth and finally caught up with Hansen, but Hansen easily got past him with a change of direction in front of his body.
This time, Okafor was able to come up for the block in time, but Hansen flicked the ball to Randolph, who scored on a close-range bank shot.
On the way back, Hansen high-fived with Randolph.
Brown on the sidelines was frowning deeply.
As Hansen's former coach, he was very familiar with Hansen's technical characteristics.
But Hansen felt very different tonight.
Earlier, because of the mismatch, he didn't feel it as strongly, but the way he got past Ci Shiping just now, was easier than crossing an empty street in the early morning.
Was it that Ci Shiping really couldn't keep up, or had Hansen evolved again?
