Charles Oakley isn't like Kurt Thomas, a rookie still in his developmental phase—Charles Oakley is a true bruiser honed by Pat Riley over many years.
Everyone could see that when Zhang Hao tried to rely on his formidable strength that didn't quite match his physique, Charles Oakley fought to hold his ground, ready to employ some sneaky moves... if that failed, he'd simply take Zhang Hao down.
No way would Zhang Hao continue to step over the New York Knicks' dignity with his physicality!
But just as Charles Oakley was getting close, ready to press his thumb into Zhang Hao's side, Zhang Hao made a plain and unremarkable spin move to bypass Charles Oakley!
Why was it unremarkable?
Because Oakley had the opportunity to step over to block Zhang Hao's spin, and he had anticipated it.
However, because he was too close, when Zhang Hao spun left, he braced his arm, and his iron-like left elbow easily resisted Oakley's movement!
