NBA backer king

Chapter 256 This game is yours

Seeing that Lao Wang called a timeout, Westphal nodded. This is correct. Any problems should be resolved off the court, and you cannot argue with your teammates on the court.

Lao Wang drank a glass of water after sitting down, but didn't say anything immediately.

In fact, he has no problem with the number of shots taken by the glider, but the shot selection of the glider is not very good today. There are at least two strong shots. This is not the shooting choice that a superstar should have.

But it's nothing, it's not worth his anger, what annoys him is that Drexler ignored his position and asked for the ball several times, which annoys him a lot.

I tried my best to get the position in the low post. You ignore me and make shots outside by yourself, and let me waste my energy below for nothing. Are you teasing me?

But he definitely can't turn his face against Drexler because of such a trivial matter, that would make people laugh to death, and he can only choose a way that is acceptable to both parties to solve the problem.

Drexler was also silent, drinking water.

When he came down, he had a little understanding of why old K called a timeout. Because of Hardaway, he was a little restless and obsessed with going it alone. This was indeed his problem.

He ignored a problem. This team belongs to Old K, not him. This is no longer his Blazers.

At this time, Lao Wang spoke, turned to Drexler and said, "Clyde, you seem to hate that guy?"

The glider was startled, and understood who K was talking about, shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "He is called Jordan's successor, and Jordan...haha!"

He didn't continue to talk, but Lao Wang understood a little bit. Although he didn't know much about the grievances between Drexler and Jordan, there must be a problem.

"OK, then this game is yours. You just need to take as many shots as you want. I'll grab the rebound for you." He looked at the glider and said.

"What?" Drexler was surprised and didn't react.

The others were also taken aback, not knowing whether Lao Wang's words were true or not.

"Blow him up, this is your only task tonight." Old Wang said again.

This time Drexler understood, but he didn't quite understand why old K would do this. 9 He had every reason and qualification to stop himself from doing it alone. This was his team.

And the rest of the Sun people also understood that Old K really handed over the dominance of this game to the glider.

"Don't understand?" Lao Wang asked with a smile.

"Yes." Drexler nodded.

"You are my teammate and he is our opponent. If you want to blow him up, then I will support you in blowing him up. It's as simple as that."

Old Wang explained a bit, and at this point, he changed the subject and said seriously: "But this time, Clyde, you are a superstar. In the position of point guard, doing it alone is not what you should do."

"OK, there will be no next time." Drexler nodded.

Colangelo and Westphal, who were watching from the side, both nodded, very satisfied with Wang Tiejun's handling.

Although there is a high probability that Drexler will leave after this season, trading him also cost a price, and it is also for the championship, so these issues must be dealt with.

It doesn't matter if you win or lose a regular season, as long as you can solve the problem, the locker room must not be chaotic.

Westphal said to Drexler at this time: "Clyde, then you can control the shots yourself, I will give you unlimited fire rights."

Drexler was excited. From this moment on, the Suns gave him a sense of belonging.

In the next game, he completely took over the Suns' possession of the ball and got unlimited fire rights.

In contrast, Penny Hardaway does not have unlimited firepower.

As a sophomore playing against an offensive superstar with unlimited firepower, it was a nightmare.

Glider made 38 of 18 shots and a 47.3% shooting rate. Among them, he made 9 of 4 three-pointers and a 44.4% shooting rate. He made 11 of 11 free throws and scored 51 points.

Hardaway, who was facing up, also performed well, scoring 21 points, but his performance was not comparable to that of the glider. Simply put, he was blown away.

而王铁军本场全力防守与抢篮板球，拿到了18分25篮板11助攻2抢断8盖帽3失误5犯规的三双数据。刷新了常规赛单场盖帽的纪录。

In this game, there were as many as 4 caps given to O'Neill, and 4 caps were sent in the defense at the same time.

In this game, he showed his rebounding ability, single defense ability, and good defense ability.

But what is more eye-catching, especially to the satisfaction of coach Westphal, is his ability to organize attacks and control attacks.

For a center forward, this kind of ability is very rare, especially now that the lightning injury has been out for several months, and the team has lost a strong organizational function. Old K's ability can help the team very well.

Simply put, this is the ability to organize a center forward.

Of course, to reflect this ability, he needs to sacrifice his scoring and put more energy on how to organize the team's offense.

Of course, Westphal also saw a point. Old K’s ability is very immature and immature. Old K’s ability to support the ball and assists is stronger in this respect, and his organization is still very weak.

So he doesn't plan to train old K into a serious organization center. The team still needs to wait for Lightning's comeback.

The Suns also relied on the explosion of the glider and the all-around performance of Lao Wang to defeat the Magic and win their 28th regular season victory.

On the second day after playing the Magic, Phoenix ushered in the Bulls, and the two teams will play their last regular-season game of the season on the 24th.

The Bulls have regained the number one spot in the league. Recently, they have been in a state of great momentum, reminiscent of the invincible momentum of last season, and the Bulls' calls for defending the title are getting louder and louder.

In fact, the Bulls this season, although there is no Grant, but Toni Kukoc's strength and ability are not bad, and some things are better, so the strength is not weaker than last season.

Although Jordan is one year older, his state is still at its peak, and his physical fitness has not declined. He is still at his peak, and he has more experience in playing and has a stronger control over the game. In fact, his strength is even a little stronger than last season.

The Bulls are now 28 wins and 10 losses, and the Bulls are 32 wins and 6 losses, ranking first in the league.

Wang Tiejun won the first place in the MVP rankings in the first month, which gave Jordan a sense of urgency, because he also wanted to win this season's MVP, so he worked harder last month and successfully won the first place.

Last season he won the MVP + championship + scoring champion + FMVP + double team, come again this season, and then repeat it again next season.

As long as he completes his goal in these three seasons, the dynasty of three consecutive MVPs and three consecutive championships, he can directly become a god, sit on the No.1 throne in league history, completely overwhelm superstars such as Larry Bird, Russell, Magic Johnson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and become a superstar among superstars.

He has the money, the MJ brand and other commercial sponsorship endorsements can bring him tens of millions of dollars in benefits every year.

He is famous, and he also has it. He is a superstar who has truly completed the circle in the history of the NBA. He is a world-class super physical superstar, not just a superstar in the NBA or basketball.

Now, what he wants is a historical status, a historical status that everyone can remember.

Any person or team that stands in his way must fall at his feet.

Now that the record is 4 games ahead, he must continue to work hard to keep the Suns and Old K under his feet.

Tomorrow's second regular season between the two teams, he also wants to win.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Bulls arrived at the hotel, and at four o'clock, a media conference was held.

"Michael, the glider killed your successor last night, do you have anything to say to him?" a reporter asked.

Jordan said with a look of disdain: "What pride is there in beating a sophomore? He should prove that he is a player of the same level as me by beating me. It's a pity that after so many years, he has only proved himself and me." I'm not a class player."

"Michael, the Spurs have had a very good record recently. They have caught up to the third place in the Western Conference. Do you think it is possible for them to reach the finals?" A reporter asked.

"I support David Robinson in killing Dameng and Old K. That's something I like to hear." Jordan laughed.

"Don't you want to beat the Suns to win the championship?" the reporter asked.

"Their injuries are severe, and their strength is not good enough. They are no longer the Suns team that destroyed my three consecutive championships. I don't expect much from them." Jordan sneered.

"Coach Jackson, after the Suns introduced the glider, they often play triangle tactics. Do you think their triangle tactics are different from your triangle tactics?" asked the next reporter.

Phil Jackson pushed his glasses and said with a smile: "Anyone can play the triangle tactic. I didn't invent it, but it is not so easy to understand the essence of the triangle tactic."

"If old K was given to you to use, how would you use him?" The reporter asked again.

Hearing this sentence, two bright lights appeared in Phil Jackson's eyes. After licking his lips, he smiled and said, "I don't answer such hypothetical questions."

In fact, ever since O'Neill and old K appeared in the league, in his heart, he has always been eager to coach them. The powerful destructive power in the low post and the terrifying low post singles ability made him drool.

The triangle tactic, to put it bluntly, is a tactic that serves superstars with super singles ability, and O'Neal and old K are naturally the most suitable people for the triangle tactic.

Aside from technology, in terms of physical fitness alone, there are only three types of excellent centers. The first is speed sensitivity, like David Robinson and Ewing;

The third type, as long as it matches certain skills, must be a super center, and it is also the center most suitable for triangle tactics.

In his opinion, although the old K's athletic quality has improved a little in the past two years, O'Neal's athletic talent is still much better, and he has a better chance of becoming a super center, and is more suitable for the triangle tactics than the old K.

Of course, he also knows that Old K has some abilities stronger than O'Neal, such as the terrifying ability to rely on hitting, organizing and controlling offense, and rebounding ability.

But in comparison, he prefers to coach O'Neal, who is more athletic.

January 1995, 1, game day.

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting list.

Bulls: Clifford Robinson, Toni Kukoc, Pippen, Jordan, BJ Armstrong

Suns: Wang Tiejun, AC Green, Drexler, Dan Marley, Elliott Perry
This game was broadcast live across the United States by TNT, and the commentators were Laitem and Dortmund.

At this time, Latham said: "This is the last regular season game between the two teams. The Suns lineup was seriously disorganized and they lost a big away game. Now that Lightning is not here, I am not optimistic that the Suns can get back at home."

Dortmund said with a smile: "For the Bulls, Toni Kukoc performed well, but he is still in the stage of adapting to the NBA. In fact, I think the Bulls this season are still a little weaker than last season."

Laitem smiled and said: "It feels right, but it should be weaker. It can also be seen from the record. Now the schedule is not over halfway, and we have already lost six games. After the All-Stars, the rotation will strengthen, and the record will decline to a certain extent. The record of the Bulls this year should not be as good as last year, and the probability of winning will not exceed 70."

Dot nodded and said, "But the Bulls are lucky. They haven't had any injuries this season, but the Suns have suffered a lot. Maybe God wants Michael to defend the title?"

Letem laughed loudly: "It's possible, haha!"

At 08:30, the game officially started.

Lao Wang wins the jump ball and the Suns attack.

Perry took the ball and pushed it upfield.

Before crossing the halfway line, Jordan stood in front of him, startling him.

He couldn't help cursing in his heart, I'm such a fringe person, you super giant among the super giants, do you need to switch defenses against me?Do you not want me to live?
"here."

On the three-point line on the left wing of the frontcourt, Drexler hurriedly withdrew to meet Perry.

The task given to him by the coaching staff is to meet a team with a strong perimeter defense before Kevin Johnson returns. He will be the core of the perimeter and control the ball.

This is no problem for him. Although he is mainly offensive, he still has some organizational skills, and his ability to protect the ball is not comparable to Perry.

Perry pulled quickly to the left, passed the ball over, and ran to the right wing, taking Jordan away in case Jordan and Pippen could pinch Drexler on the ball.

After receiving the ball, Drexler pushed forward to the three-point line, while observing the situation on the field, mainly the old K's position and the Bulls' defensive formation.

He saw the old K running towards the basket, and at the same time noticed that the Bulls' defenders in other positions were shrinking a bit, and they were preparing to double-team the old K.

In front of him, Pippen was concentrating, leaning over, his right hand covering his face, and his left hand leaping like a poisonous snake, ready to attack him at any moment.

At this time, Lao Wang entered the basket. Clifford Robinson is a space-type insider with a light tonnage of nearly 110 kilograms. He is far behind him and cannot stop him at all, even pulling and pulling.

When he got to the basket, Kerry wanted to go around, but at this time, Pharaoh blocked with his left arm, and with a little push, under the resistance, Kerry was stuck behind him, and the ball flew over at this time.

When Drexler saw Wang reached the basket, he immediately shook Pippen with a fake shot and then passed the ball in.

When the ball was in the air, the Bulls began to double-team quickly.

On the weak right wing, Toni Kukoc and Jordan double-teamed, and AC Green and Perry were empty.

"Snapped!"

Pharaoh grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand.

The next moment, the right foot did not move, the left foot moved, and accompanied by a sudden right turn, Clifford Robinson, who was stuck behind him, entangled him, and he staggered.

Fortunately, he was not strong enough, if he hadn't been thrown away, Lao Wang's right elbow would have hit him directly with his right elbow.

"..."

Jordan, who jumped a step away, reacted too quickly. Seeing Lao Wang's turn around under the basket, he flew up directly under the force of his feet.

Lao Wang turned right, and when his left foot landed, his body had already turned to the left side of the basket, and at the same time he threw off the defender Clifford Robinson.

Jordan flew in the air, stretched his right arm as hard as he could, and pressed the ball in Lao Wang's right hand with his big hand.

"Snapped!"

He actually touched the ball.

But the next moment, to his astonishment, he failed to stop Old K's dunk, his hand was directly smashed open by a huge force, and then hit Old K's hand bowl.

"boom!"

Old K smashed Jordan's hand away with a ball and smashed the ball into the basket.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle blew.

"yeah!"

Huge cheers erupted in the American West Arena.

"Oh ho ho ho, the opening dunk, old K, keep doing this, blast their basket."

"Good job! Old K, teach them like this and let them know that this is your territory."

The on-site commentators of the two regional broadcasters roared excitedly.

In the TNT commentary seat, Dott shook his head and sighed: "Old K's athletic quality has indeed improved a lot. He used to directly drive away defenders, then get up and dunk. He rarely turned around like this."

"That's why he's called the Restricted Area Sweeper." Latham laughed.

Dot nodded and said: "Just now his turning movement is still not as flexible and fast as Shaquille O'Neal's. Shark's shark turning is as sensitive as a defender, but his turning movement like this is already quite good among centers. This is probably the reason why he didn't use to sweep Clifford Robinson, because he doesn't need to do that, and he can solve the defender with a simpler and less labor-intensive turn."

Laitem nodded and said: "Of course he has to choose this way after his athletic quality has improved, which can prevent him from being double-teamed to a certain extent.

You can see that the bull's double-team was very fast just now. If he had adopted the previous method, the bull's double-team would definitely be in place before he got up.

Of course, he may continue to sweep Jordan and Kukoc, but such an attack will consume a lot of physical energy, and it is likely to violate the three-second rule, so now is the most correct way to attack the basket. "

As the two were talking, Pharaoh began to increase the penalty. Just now, the referee gave Jordan a thug foul.

The first offense caused Jordan's foul, and it became two plus one, which can be said to be a pretty good start.

"boom!"

The extra penalty missed, Kukoc grabbed the backcourt rebound, and the Bulls attacked.

BJ advances the ball upfield to Jordan, and Drexler switches and gets in front of Jordan.

Superstar duel, and it is a pair of enemies since 84. They are both members of the Dream Team. The confrontation between the two immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Crack clap..."

After the bottom line, dozens of reporters kept pressing the shutters on the two of them.

Looking at the league, there are only three people who can really be called flying players, Jordan, Drexler, and Wilkins, these are superstars flying in the sky to play.

The duel between the two immediately attracted the attention of countless viewers in front of the TV, and the ratings skyrocketed.
