NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

"He's 39 years old!"

"No matter how powerful he is, he is still 39 years old!"

Halftime, inside the Lakers locker room.

Phil Jackson can no longer continue to pretend to be a tall man in a serious manner.

52: 47.

The Lakers trailed by 5 points.

Trailing by 5 points at halftime, it wasn't a big deal.

Even if they are as strong as the Lakers, there is no guarantee that they will always be the one in the lead during the intermission.

Usually, even if the midfielder is behind, the Lakers don't need to worry too much.

Phil Jackson is even less likely to throw a fit in the locker room.

The important thing is that the Lakers now see no hope of winning at all.

At least, this game is not yet in sight.

O'Neal had 18 points, 6 rebounds and 1 steal.

Kobe had 10 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 steal.

Fox had 6 points and 6 rebounds.

Fisher had 6 points and 4 assists.

Horry 5 points.

Brian Shaw scored 2 points and 1 assist.

It seems like nothing.

But look at the Wizards again.

Jordan scored 28 points, made all 12 shots, and made 4 additional penalties, all of which were made.

It was only halftime, and Zhou Yao scored 10 assists, 5 rebounds, 4 points, and 3 steals.

Is this going to go for a triple-double again?

The rest of the Wizards played very comfortably.

After all, the later, the stronger Jordan's ability to attract double teams.

In the confrontation between the old and new generations of shooting guards, Kobe couldn't say that he didn't perform well enough, but he was still crushed.

If the Lakers' performance is not good, it's okay to lose.

But the Lakers' own performance was obviously fine, but they were still beaten by the Wizards, or Jordan.

That's really hopeless.

Moreover, Jordan in this game made Phil Jackson feel both strange and familiar.

Speaking of familiarity, after all, Jackson and Jordan have been on the same team for so many years.

Together they created the Bulls Dynasty.

Jordan charged ahead.

Phil Jackson strategized and won thousands of miles.

At that time, it didn't matter how flamboyant Jackson's moves were, on the contrary, he was often praised as a stroke of genius.

The reason why he dared to do this was because he had confidence in his tactics on the one hand.

On the other hand, even if the tactics are not played out, Jackson still has a last resort.

Hand the ball to Jordan, and Jordan will fix everything.

But now, the Jordan who can solve all problems is not on his team.

O'Neal is a big killer inside, but it can't solve all problems.

It's not that Kobe is not good enough, but it has to be compared with whom.

And the reason for saying unfamiliar.

That's because Jordan's body was no longer at its peak when Phil Jackson started coaching the Bulls.

In other words, Jackson never really saw the truly omnipotent Jordan up close.

Although, when Phil Jackson took over the Bulls, Jordan's strength still crushed all the masters in the league.

Didn't Jordan try his best to play after he entered the Bulls?

Even though he knew it was impossible, Phil Jackson couldn't help but think so.

Today, he actually flew so high and ran so fast.

39 years old is like this.

So, what would Jordan look like when he won the championship for the first time at the age of 1991 in 28 if he went all out to play?

Jackson didn't dare to think.

It's not because he didn't want to win 82 consecutive victories, so he didn't try his best!

……

The game restarts.

Jordan doesn't look tired at all.

Zhou Yao dribbled the ball across the half.

The ball is still in Zhou Yao's hands.

The movement of the dribble seems to be a little careless.

Jackson believed it.

At this time, if Kobe rushed forward, he would definitely be able to grab the ball.

However, Kobe stood far away from Zhou Yao, and did not take a step closer.

Not for anything else, just because there is Jordan there, so I have to guard against it.

Even if Jordan has nothing in his hands.

Fisher marked Zhou Yao, but the effect was obviously not very good.

Zhou Yao chose to shoot himself this time and hit a three-pointer.

55: 47.

The score was further widened.

But in Jackson's view, everyone's defense did a good job this round.

Zhou Yao didn't even have a chance to pass the ball to Jordan.

As for Zhou Yao scoring the ball himself, it's nothing at all.

Jackson would rather let Zhou Yao get a triple-double than let him pass the ball to Jordan.

Zhou Yao scored a three-pointer, but it was just a threat. If the ball was passed to Jordan, it would be dangerous.

Can't give the Wizards a chance.

Zhou Yao let him vote if he wanted to.

If he has the ability, he kills the game with three-pointers.

Not to mention whether he has that ability.

Even if Zhou Yao did it.

It takes 4 wins in a series to win the championship.

Can he kill the game with three-pointers in all four games?

On the contrary, when the ball is in Jordan's hands, he can really kill the game.

……

Lakers offense.

The ball was passed to Kobe.

Under Jordan's defense, Kobe didn't have a chance to make a phone call.

Want to pass the ball to O'Neal, or play pick-and-rolls with post players.

But there is no chance.

Time passed, Kobe could only pass the ball to Fisher again.

Fisher's three-pointers are relatively reliable.

But before Fisher could make a shot, the ball had already been snatched by Zhou Ya.

Kobe hurried to the backcourt.

Kobe is not slow.

Jordan is faster.

Received a pass from Zhou Yao.

The layup also caused Kobe to foul.

The third quarter has just begun, Bryant has 4 fouls.

It's just that Kobe's 4 fouls were not worth it.

He didn't let Jordan miss once, but gave Jordan 4 free throw opportunities.

And Jordan scored all of them.

58: 47.

The point difference came to double digits.

……

Jackson called a timeout.

But now, he found that he couldn't arrange any tactics.

Only words can be used to comfort the players.

At the same time, hopefully the timeout will interrupt Jordan's rhythm and cool down his hands.

Just based on Jackson's own experience, this kind of trick is almost useless for Jordan.

What Jack Xu didn't know was that Jordan had more experience and better skills in this game, but he used his body at his peak.

And Zhou Yao can still see the hit rate.

Every time I pass the ball to Jordan, it is almost a must.

And Jordan also used his strength to erase the word "almost".

In the eyes of others, Jordan feels hot.

Zhou Yao's assists also flew up.

If there is a chance can come again.

Jackson doesn't care about the money the Lakers give him.

He wants to tell everyone now that he wants to coach the Wizards.

If someone could see his thoughts at this time, they would definitely scold this guy for being shameless.

Obviously already have Kobe and O'Neal, but still want Jordan.

Isn't this a long look at Shu?

Who disliked Jordan for being old?

Be kind!

Besides, are you coaching the Lakers because of money?

Who was the one who had a big drink with the Lakers owner's precious daughter in the nightclub yesterday?

The boss of Wizards doesn't have such a beautiful daughter...
