NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

5 month 31 day.

Korea-Japan World Cup kicks off.

In the opening game, the last champion France team lost to Senegal in Africa.

However, for basketball fans, this is nothing at all.

On the second day, everyone was discussing g6 in the Western Conference Finals.

The Lakers beat the Kings 106:102.

On June 6, the Western Conference Finals g2.

The Lakers eliminated the Kings in overtime and advanced to the finals.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

A considerable number of fans are complaining about the penalty of g6.

"Without a referee, the Lakers were eliminated in Game [-]."

"Where did the seventh game come from!"

"The league just looks down on the small ball market!"

"If the king was in Los Angeles, how could he be treated like this."

"In the sixth game, 8 beat 5, although the king is defeated, it is an honor!"

"Princeton's system beats the triangle offense!"

"Team basketball is the best basketball."

"Let those superstar basketball die!"

"What's so great about O'Neill!"

"What's so great about Kobe!"

"Without a referee, how can they beat the king!"

"It's just a bunch of trash!"

No wonder these fans are so dissatisfied.

In g6, the Lakers have 15 more free throws than the Kings.

O'Neal scored 41 points, 13 of which were free throws.

However, O'Neal's free throws in this game were indeed accurate.

A 76% free throw percentage may not seem like a big deal to others, but to O'Neal, it's simply against the sky.

It can't be said that O'Neill's free throws are also the help of the referee.

What makes fans who support the Lakers even more dissatisfied is that.

The king had 5 more free throws in g10, and 3 more in g20.

Kings fans didn't mention it at all.

And in the eyes of Lakers fans, a performance like Divac's is simply a flop.

"Kobe doesn't have food poisoning."

"The referee should be fairer."

"The Lakers already won at g4."

"Where did you get g6?"

Lakers fans are also venting their dissatisfaction.

It's just that the Lakers have been too strong in recent years.

Almost everyone dislikes the Lakers.

The dissatisfaction of Lakers fans was quickly drowned out.

……

Regardless, the Lakers reached the Finals for the third time in three years.

In 00, the Lakers and Pacers fought to the sixth game.

In 01, facing the lone hero Iverson, the Lakers completed a gentleman sweep.

It is now 2002, and they are facing the Wizards led by Jordan.

The iron-clad Lakers, the fast-moving Eastern Conference team.

It is very similar to those years, the iron-clad bulls and the flowing western tyrants.

It's just that now, Jordan is still there, but he has changed from seeking defeat alone to a challenger.

There seems to be something wrong.

Obviously, the Wizards completed sweeps one after another.

Looks like an easy way to the finals.

The Lakers have not been easy along the way.

Swept the Blazers, the Gentleman swept the Spurs, and then fought the Kings to the tiebreaker.

Along the way, it became more and more difficult.

Now we have to see whether the new king is born out of blue, or the old king Jiang is old and spicy.

Only the Kings are now home fishing.

……

6 month 4 day.

The Wizards head to Los Angeles.

The plane was slightly delayed.

But back to the hotel there is still time to watch the World Cup.

Group C second game.

The Chinese team lost 2:0 to Costa Rica, which is not even considered a first-tier city in China due to the combined population of the country.

The goal of winning a game set before the game was directly shattered.

According to this strength, there is not much hope for a tie.

It depends on whether you can score a goal.

Just watched the game against Costa Rica.

Refer to the last match between Türkiye and Brazil.

Unless those two teams release water.

Otherwise, it is impossible to score a goal.

……

April 6st morning.

The team conducted the last training before the game, and the intensity was of course controlled to be very small.

But from May 5 to now.

The team has had enough rest time.

If you can't keep training, people will relax quickly.

Before the game, proper relaxation is beneficial to the game.

But if you relax completely, it will be difficult to get tense again.

……

These days, Jordan has a strange feeling.

Jordan is 39 years old.

Although not old.

But no one needs to be reminded.

In fact, he knows best in his heart that it is impossible for him to play like he did when he was young.

Everyone knows that Jordan's fadeaway jumper is very good.

Since this season, Jordan has also played a lot of backs.

People noticed that Jordan's back is also so powerful.

People seem to have forgotten.

Many years ago, Jordan didn't play post-ups very much, or even fade-away jumpers.

At that time, if Jordan wanted to score.

Unless you drag him down from the sky abruptly, otherwise, he can score if he wants to.

Sometimes, even if you drag him from the sky, the moment you drag him with your hands, he has already scored.

Jordan in the past, if you look at Jordan today, is also a rough guy with rough skills and can only play with his body.

Of course, the only person who can describe Jordan at that time is Jordan himself today.

As he got older, Jordan's arsenal became increasingly full.

Jordan is still the Jordan who can put the ball in the basket any way.

However, only Jordan himself knows.

His body was in irreparable decline.

He can't fly over everyone's heads forever.

Today's Jordan technology is comprehensive.

Even the three-pointers, which he almost didn't know when he was young, had a shooting rate of nearly 40%.

Not much better than those pure shooters.

But just these few days.

Jordan felt something strange in his body.

Jordan didn't tell anyone on the team.

He quietly took a physical test for himself, just like those newcomers who have just joined or are about to join the league.

Vertical jump 98, run-up bounce 121, airborne time 0.97 seconds, 10 meters 5 seconds [-].

"Is he kidding me?"

This was Jordan's first thought.

He even wanted to beat up the physical examiner directly.

Jordan was a paranoid, not an egomaniac.

He is 39 years old.

Even 10 years ago, he could hardly reach this data.

"Although this is incredible."

"But there is still a scientific explanation."

"Sometimes, when a person is excited enough, he can indeed reach heights that he was completely unattainable before."

"You are indeed 39 years old."

"Being a bit older as a basketball player."

"But in fact, you are only 39 years old."

"If you don't consider that you are an athlete, you are still very young."

"Besides, it's not impossible for you to do the physical test data this time."

"It's just hard to say how long this state can last."

The physical examiner also felt that his professional knowledge could not answer Jordan's doubts.

He even had Jordan's blood tested, and it came back normal.

Since everything is normal, there is nothing to worry about...
