Legend of Tomorrow

? After checking the NBA news in the past ten years, Guo Xu was dumbfounded time and time again.

The great changes in the Earth Two NBA league began in 1993. Penny Anfernee Hardaway tore his left knee ligament in his junior year of college. Although he averaged 22 points, 8.4 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.3 blocks per game this season, he was still underestimated in the draft because he has serious injury risks and is 22 years old.

Hardaway was not selected by the Lakers until the 12th pick. Many players were scrapped due to torn ligaments. Most teams were unwilling to take risks. Moreover, Hardaway was recuperating from an injury and had no side data for reference. He did not go to the Magic for a trial.

The Magic, holding the No. 1 pick in 1993, looked down on other outside players and selected one of the Michigan Five. Power forward Chris Webber reluctantly stayed on the team and formed a twin tower with O'Neal.

The Magic also tried to trade Weber in the summer in exchange for star point guards from other teams, but other teams were raising prices and were unwilling to give away good trading chips, so they had to give up.

After the start of the new season, Weber's performance surprised everyone.

Weber has excellent organizational skills, can pull out to shoot, is good at organizing attacks in the high post, and can break through with the ball, playing like a small forward like Pippen. His and O'Neal's positions do not overlap, but complement each other. They are both inside and outside on both offense and defense.

Head coach Brian Hill created a suitable twin-tower strategy for them, which is very similar to the future Spurs. O'Neal is unstoppable one-on-one with the ball in the low post. Webber can pull out to play pick-and-rolls with outside teammates, catch and shoot, and attack with the ball. He is very flexible. The two also often play inside passes and cooperate inside.

On the defensive end, O'Neal defends the penalty area, and Webber can defend the pick-and-roll. Both of them are very capable of controlling rebounds, making the Magic one of the top five rebounding teams in the league.

After only one season of running together, the Magic Twin Towers led the team to the top, and won the best record in the Eastern Conference in the regular season. However, the overall record was inferior to the Spurs, and O'Neal failed to win the regular season MVP.

Both Twin Towers were selected as All-Stars in the mid-term, O'Neal can compete for the scoring title, and Webber averaged 20.5 points, 8.2 rebounds and 5 assists per game.

In the 1995 playoffs, the Magic swept the Celtics in the first round, and the Twin Towers offense was extremely gorgeous.

In the second round, the Magic beat the Bulls 4-1, and Jordan's comeback was of no use. O'Neal outplayed Bulls center Longley and almost committed suicide in shame. Webb also defeated Kukoc in three games. At this time, Big Bug Rodman had not yet joined the team, and the Bulls' defense had weaknesses.

In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Magic eliminated the Pacers 4-2.

In the interior competition, the Pacers' three outstanding interior players, Rick Schmitz, Dale Davis, and Antonio Davis, couldn't stand it.

The Magic don't just have the twin towers, they also have Cobra Horace Grant as a substitute, and their inside strength is No. 1 in the league.

In the finals, the Magic defeated the Rockets led by Olajuwon 4-2 and won the championship in an upset. O'Neal became the FMVP.

The Rockets did not perform well in the regular season in 1995, ranking sixth in the Western Conference with 47 wins. Big Dream Olajuwon only had conflicts with O'Neal. After the Magic acquired Webber, Olajuwon was unable to do anything on the defensive end.

As soon as the Magic formation opened up and the stars attracted double-teams, the two outside three-point shooters Nick Anderson and Denise Scott performed equally well. The two defenders Brian Shaw and Scott Scales are not hopelessly weak.

The Magic did not sign Hardaway and were short of someone at the No. 1 position. Veteran Skiles stayed on the team and fulfilled his championship dream.

Although the Magic were eliminated by the Super Bulls in the 1996 Eastern Conference Finals, the management would not be stupid enough to let O'Neal go again, and completed a contract extension with a high salary of US$120 million for seven years.

The Bulls were very strong in 1996 and 1997 and won the offensive championship twice.

In 1998, the Magic Twin Towers, who were in their prime, defeated the Bulls with aging players 4-2, and then defeated the Jazz 4-2 to win the championship.

After that, the Magic successfully defended their titles in 1999 and 2000, establishing a dynasty for three consecutive championships. At the age of 28, O'Neal won four championships and dominated the league, winning two regular season MVPs and four FMVPs.

In 2000, Webber and O'Neal had a conflict over ball rights. The Magic traded Webber for Grizzlies point guard Mike Bibby and draft picks, and threw him to Vancouver. After freeing up salary space, they poached him from the Raptors. Swingman Tracy McGrady.

The Magic's new lineup has been working together for two years, and they won another championship last season. It was O'Neal's fifth championship. He also won two MVPs again. At this time, many people said that he had surpassed Jordan. With the same five championships, O'Neal seemed to dominate. Stronger.

Guo Xu also looked at Hardaway's situation. He was not even selected to the All-Stars without partnering with O'Neal. After joining the Lakers, his position was unclear. He was used as the second position and partnered with Van Exel on the outside because the difference in confrontation was very fast. He was seriously injured again, and from then on his talent was just a cloud.

After the Lakers selected Eddie Jones in 1994, Hardaway could only be the team's sixth man. He is still playing this year, but he is just an ordinary role player.

The biggest knock-on effect of the Lakers' selection of Hardaway was that they were full of talents on the outside but very weak on the inside. In 1996, they did not send star center Divac to the Hornets and traded for No. 13 rookie Kobe.

Even so, the general manager of the Hornets sent Kobe away. He just said that there was no place for Kobe in the team, and replaced him with Eagles power forward Grant Long. In the 1995-96 season, he averaged 13.1 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game.

The Hawks have a good lineup, with swingmen Kobe Bryant, Steve Smith, point guard Mookie Blaylock, center Mutombo, power forward Christian Laettner, and several strong players on the bench.

In the first two seasons of his career, Kobe served as Steve Smith's substitute and performed well. He won the dunk title and was selected as an All-Star in 1998.

The Hawks had a stable performance in the playoffs, being eliminated in the second round twice and once in the first round due to injuries.

Kobe's shots gradually caught up with Steve Smith. The Hawks sent him away in the middle of 1999, making Kobe the core of the team and known as the Eagle King!

In 2001, Kobe and Mutombo led the Hawks to the Finals, losing to the Spurs 2-4. Kobe won the regular season MVP that year and became a very popular lone hero.

The Hawks were eliminated in the first round for the next two years, but Kobe won the regular season scoring title for three consecutive years and was the most popular player in the league. Everyone said he was most like Jordan.

Then, something regrettable happened. This summer, Eagle King Kobe Bryant was exposed to the Eagle County Incident in Colorado, which greatly damaged his image. Guo Xu looked at the photo, and the heroine was the ugly girl named Caitlin.

The difference is that Kobe's wife Adams Devlin immediately announced the divorce and divided a lot of property. The two met when Adams was in high school. Regardless of family objections, Kobe got engaged to Adams early on her 18th birthday. They got married in Atlanta in 2001 and broke up with her parents for her. It's a pity that this woman really seems to have fallen in love with Kobe for money.

As for Vanessa, Guo Xu didn't find any information on the Internet, so she should be just an ordinary person.

Not long ago, Kobe Bryant revealed a big news. Dikembe did it too, he told the court.

He said that Mutombo had taught him in the locker room how to pay to settle such affairs. Mutombo also did this kind of thing and used $1 million to silence women.

Mutombo has been involved in the Golden Club case before, and now his image is even worse. Uncle Mu was furious and said in an interview that he was not familiar with Kobe at all and that he was talking nonsense.

Now, the Eagles are in internal strife...
