The world's best combo guard

Chapter 69 [The next self]

There was still about two meters away from the three-point line. No one thought that Li Hao would make a direct shot. In fact, everyone was still silent on the beautiful pre-judged steal just now.

However, that's what Li Hao did. He was in a hot state, and there seemed to be an arrogant and unruly voice in his heart that kept calling him, telling him to let go.

"Swish"

When this ultra-long three-pointer flew across the court like a meteor, and got into the basket like a soul.

Everyone swallowed their saliva with some difficulty, and looked at the figure who looked a little green and immature but was so domineering at the moment in disbelief.

"Yes, Li's ultra-long three-pointer, God, this guy seems to have entered the rampage mode"

"19 points, 3 assists and 2 steals"

This night, Li Hao played the toughest battle. He scored a career-high 19 points in just half of the game. His state is so hot, it seems that this should not be the statistics of the whole game. This guy provides the stage, and maybe tonight, we'll actually see something interesting at Michael's jersey retirement ceremony.

Li Hao's super long three-pointer with a sudden shot at the end not only made the fans unbelievable, not only made the Bulls players unexpected, but even his teammates found it incredible.

On the way to the locker room, Kobe looked at Li Hao thoughtfully, perhaps this Chinese boy is not as simple as he usually appears.

Also, to be able to stand out from 13 billion or even 30 billion in Asia, and be selected by an NBA team with the same draft pick as himself, Kobe should have thought that this guy is far from being as simple as it seems.

"Li, well done. Although there are a few times where your choices are a bit unwise, there is no doubt that we have seen your gorgeous performances. Listen, the team will never limit the need for you."

In the locker room, Phil Jackson took the initiative to find Li Hao unprecedentedly, affirmed his performance just now, and even hoped that Li Hao would continue to do so.

To be honest, Phil Jackson is very complicated at the moment, he actually has a little trouble of happiness, because he saw the sign of another player from Li Hao.

Compared with a simple defensive leader, Phil Jackson feels that Li Hao has the opportunity to become a "3D player" at this moment, the kind of top 3D player.

Compared with watch basketball, which focuses on inside and physical confrontation, the concept of 3D players has only vaguely appeared in the past two seasons.

Regarding the power of 3D players, Phil Jackson can be regarded as fresh in his memory. Thinking about the Western Conference semifinals with the Spurs last season, the Spurs' Bruce Bowen left a deep impression on him.

In other words, Phil Jackson has that self-confidence. Tim Duncan was indeed omnipotent last season, but without Bowen, it would be impossible for Popovich to eliminate himself.

At that moment just now, Phil Jackson definitely had a chance to become a player like Bowen.

However, compared with Bowen, Li Hao's potential seems to be much greater, because he has more weapons on the offensive end, his dribbling, and his big heart. From this perspective, Phil Jackson is absolutely Li Hao's The upper limit is full of infinite possibilities.

However, one has to eat one bite at a time. As far as the Lakers are concerned this season, Phil Jackson thinks that it is best for Li Hao to become a player similar to Bowen, because this is what the team needs most.

Li Hao's performance in the first half was amazing enough. Whether it was the offensive end or the defensive end, it seemed that he was the most dazzling player in the first half.

However, in the integration of the United Center, during the intermission, the floor mat that people discussed and paid attention to was not Li Hao, but Jordan on the contrary.

At the arena, the Bulls staff are preparing, and Jordan's final jersey retirement ceremony will begin soon.

For the Lakers, under the leadership of Kobe Bryant, everyone has also returned to the court. They will witness Jordan's jersey retirement ceremony on the spot.

Including Li Hao, no one thinks this is an indifferent behavior. Jordan's achievements in the NBA are obvious to all. He is the greatest player in NBA history so far. His achievements may already be unprecedented.

As proud as Kobe, this cannot be denied.

Which one of the "four major shooting guards" in the current vertical and horizontal league is not Jordan's little fan?
Looking at the much-anticipated figure in the center of the court, to be honest, the current Li Hao is more envious.

Yes, it's envy.

For a professional player to achieve such an achievement, he should be regarded as having no regrets in his life!
"One day, I will reach his height"

Li Hao was startled by Kobe's muttering beside him. This guy seemed to talk a little too much tonight. You must know that before this, Kobe hadn't spoken to him in total.

However, looking at this guy's stubborn expression, Li Hao resonated with him from the bottom of his heart. He also wanted to be a player like Michael Jordan.

Phil Jackson was also invited to give a speech. The relationship between the old guy and Jordan is obviously extraordinary. The relationship between them should be a teacher and a friend.

"I am sure that Michael is the best player I have ever worked with. What he showed on the court is always worth learning from the younger generations. We work together and definitely achieve each other..."

Jordan's jersey retirement ceremony lasted almost 30 minutes.

No one felt that this time was too long, and everyone witnessed Jordan's departure with awe and reluctance.

"Michael Jordan has left. He has left unrepeatable achievements in NBA history. After he leaves, who will become the next Michael? Who will become an epoch-making player like Michael?"

"Shaq O'Neal? Tim Duncan? Or the four major shooting guards? Or the new generation of LeBron James?"

This question became the Goldbach conjecture.

"I'm grateful for this alliance, but honestly, I don't want someone to say that someone is going to be the next Michael, I want these kids to be the next themselves..."

Jordan is humble, he has been in this league for a long time, he loves this league, so he hopes that this league will get better and better.

"Okay, let's refocus on this game, as the home team, the Bulls can't just surrender like this, even if they trail by 18 points at halftime"

With Jordan's jersey retirement ceremony officially over, there was finally more talk about winning or losing tonight's game.

"The Chinese defender shined in the first half. It is no exaggeration to say that if it weren't for him, the Chicago Bulls would not have fallen behind by 18 points at halftime. Look at the 19 points he scored, which is basically the difference between the two teams."

If nothing else, Phil Jackson will definitely continue to trust that Chinese Li in the second half.
