Chapter 178 Unlucky or Lucky
Tyrone and Rodman played until a 2:2 tie, and whoever scored the last goal would win.

Even Tyrone himself didn't expect that he would be able to stick to Rodman to this extent. It has to be said that Rodman's current physical condition can no longer withstand the impact from young players.

Rodman's last shot was ruthlessly blocked by Tyrone. Seeing that the basketball was about to pop out of bounds, a classic scene appeared. The 70-year-old Rodman made the same crazy move at the age of 35, flying to save the ball, but this time the ball he rescued was like a cannonball and shot into Tyrone's arms.

"Go young man, go and fulfill your dream." After saving the ball, Rodman fell heavily to the floor. This time he didn't turn over as fast as he did when he was young, but lay on the ground calmly, looking at Tyrone with the same calm eyes.

"Senior Rodman." Tyrone suddenly felt that the basketball in his hand became heavier.

Tyrone's last goal was very light, an ordinary three-step layup. In this way, he won the duel with the idol and took over the torch of revitalizing Detroit from Rodman.

Rodman completed his mission, and he had no reservations in the third game, and it was another 3:0, winning the game.

After all, not everyone gets the Tyrone-like treatment from Rodman.

Next, George selected the campers who played against Pippen. After missing three opportunities, the probability of Cannavaro being drawn was instantly reduced by half, but he still had a chance to be drawn.

"Get rid of it, my luck can't be so bad." Cannavaro was a little excited. Although the first target he was going to play against was not Pippen, Rodman's quota was gone, and Cannavaro could only accept this fact. Now he only hopes that he can be drawn, even if he is taken away by 3:0, he will have no regrets.

However, fate always plays tricks on those who don't believe him at inopportune times.

Cannavaro was not drawn for two consecutive matches, and even the name of the player he had communicated with was not drawn. That was a one-sixth probability. His face was so dark that he began to doubt his life.

There was another chance and the last chance. George reached into the box again, and Cannavaro prayed extremely earnestly, praying for a miracle to happen.

For the last spot, George also sold out. He carefully studied the name in his hand, but he didn't announce it for a long time.

"Don't be nervous, the last spot must be yours." His teammates comforted Cannavaro, he was really eager for this opportunity.

George was slightly surprised by the names on the list, and then said, "Carlisle Curry!"

The last spot for the match belongs to Carlisle Curry, not Cannavaro. His face is full of loss and regret. He even communicated with so many people on purpose, but he still hasn't been drawn. Maybe this is fate.

But the rules are the rules, and Cannavaro has no chance to compete with the legend, which also makes him inattentive to pay attention to everything that happens on the court.

Carlisle Curry obviously came prepared, taking advantage of his footsteps and speed to constantly interfere with Pippen's rhythm. The aging Pippen could stand the torment and stopped after a few rounds. However, Curry still hoped to use his best offensive method to end the game. All shots were completed beyond the three-point line, and finally won the game with 5 of 3 shots and 60% three-point shooting.

After the game, both Pippen and Rodman praised Carlisle Curry, saying that his three-pointer reminded people of the short-lived "small ball trend", and the creator of that period of history was also called Curry.

In the end, Rodman and Pippen achieved a record of 2 wins and 1 loss in their respective three games. They are really good teammates, and even their records are exactly the same.

However, when the audience was immersed in laughter and laughter, only Cannavaro seemed not very happy.

"No, brother, it's just a game. If you don't make it, you don't make it. What's the matter?" Henry comforted Cannavaro as a witness after experiencing a not-so-good heads-up.

Cannavaro said angrily, "You simply don't understand what this opportunity means to you."

Indeed, everyone will have different ideas when dealing with the same thing. In Henry's eyes, this is just an ordinary game, but it has an extraordinary meaning to Cannavaro. It is an idol, and it is an opportunity to compete with idols several times in life.

An idol is enough to change a person's life.

"Let him calm down." Mu Chenfeng pulled Henry away, and Cannavaro could only digest this matter slowly.

In order to encourage the players to attack on a higher stage, Rodman and Pippen also specially prepared two signed jerseys. The jerseys are the authentic jerseys worn by the Bulls during the second three consecutive championships of the year. They have been treasured in the United Center before. The classic Bulls red and black color scheme, and the red numbers [91] and [33] seem to bring people back to that passionate era. These two jerseys, like Jordan's [23], carry the endless glory of the Bulls.

Although these two jerseys are products of more than 30 years ago, they have not been overshadowed by the passage of time, but they are even more shining.

Although the jersey is treasured in the United Center, the ownership of the jersey belongs to Rodman and Pippen. Someone once offered a sky-high price to buy it, but they were rejected by the two.

Now, they are willing to give these two jerseys to this group of young children free of charge.

Who will be the only lucky one?
Not only the campers, but even Barrett, Louis and George are also coveting the jerseys, but the parties have repeatedly emphasized that the jerseys are only given to young talents. Of course Barrett can be counted, but George and Louis seem to be far away from the word young talents.

Pippen gave Rum his jersey. As the best of this group of players, Rum received the jersey and deserved it.

The suspense is left to Rodman, there are 59 people left, and he only has 1 jersey.

This made Rodman a little embarrassed. In his eyes, there was no difference between these children, and it was a matter of course to give them to anyone.

Among the 59 people, Cannavaro is of course eager for jersey alignment. He missed the opportunity to compete. If he can get a jersey as compensation, it will be a huge profit.

But Cannavaro didn't think such good luck would come to him.

One-sixth of the probability of being drawn is to pass him by, let alone the probability of less than [-]%.

Cannavaro has already made the psychological preparation that an audience should have.

Rodman hesitated for a moment, and slowly said a name, "I want to give my jersey to Cannavaro!"

Cannavaro couldn't believe that he heard his own name, and sat there blankly.

"Yes, you heard it right, that jersey belongs to you!" Mu Chenfeng on the side hurriedly reminded.

Under the envious eyes of everyone, Cannavaro stood up slowly, until he came in front of Rodman, he couldn't believe that he would become the luckiest person in the audience.

"Is it really me?" Cannavaro looked at Rodman suspiciously.

Rodman wondered, "What? Don't you like it?"

"Oh, no, no, I like it very much, I love you so much, I'm so excited, my god" Cannavaro was excited and incoherent, and he didn't even know what he was talking about.

Rodman unfolded the jersey and handed it to Cannavaro, "This is my baby. Now I will give him to you, hoping to bring you good luck. Promise me to take good care of it."

A jersey is like a player's jersey, which is very precious to players, especially this kind of jersey with unusual commemorative significance is even more precious.

"I will definitely treasure it." Cannavaro touched the jersey lightly, as if he touched the infinite power. Rodman wore this jersey to establish the great Bulls dynasty.

"But why me?" Cannavaro asked timidly.

Rodman put his mouth close to Cannavaro's ear and explained in a low voice, "Because I like to eat pasta!"

He is indeed the most wild and unruly player in NBA history, and even the reason is equally ironic.

Thanks to the country, to Italy, to the great pasta chef who created the pasta to Rodman's taste, all of which helped him get this dream jersey.

"Your luck is too explosive." Looking at the jersey in Cannavaro's hands, and then recalling the scene of himself being abused by Rodman, Henry immediately felt deep malice. He was also doing activities with the legend. Why should he have a jersey while he was only frustrated.

Henry stretched out his hand and stroked the jersey twice, "Hurry up and lend me some good luck."

Cannavaro pulled the jersey aside, "Be careful, I promised Rodman to take good care of this jersey."

"What does it matter if you touch it? You can't break it." Henry pouted. He didn't expect him to be such a stingy Cannavaro, and he wouldn't even let him touch it after getting along for a month.

Mu Chenfeng came over and said, "This is much better than fighting him."

"That's right, this is a treasure that money can't buy." Cannavaro raised his head proudly, as if what he got was not a jersey, but the whole world.

"It's worth your visit this time. It's the championship ring and the championship jersey." Cannavaro is the one who gained the most from the training camp. No improvement in strength or ranking can compare to these two genuine items. The value of these two things is enough for Cannavaro to buy a house in a first-tier city in China.

"What are you talking about? These two things are equally important to me. Do you understand the priceless treasure?" Cannavaro carefully put the jersey into the matching storage box, feeling happy in his heart, but it would be even more perfect if he could play a game with Rodman. If there is a chance in the future, he must make up for his regrets.
