I'm good at basketball too

Chapter 122 The name of training is called will
In the future, Steve Kerr, who has become the champion coach of Golden State, once said such a sentence when talking about this matter.

"Nowadays, the league will never take that kind of risk again. I can guarantee that if it is Curry or Klay, or even other superstars in the league, it is really unthinkable, and it is impossible for us to deal with it like (with Jordan). "

The implication is that Jordan's actions back then are simply unimaginable in this era.

Just like a certain FMVP, who only played 189 games in four years, how can he be worthy of the title "Contemporary Jordan"? (Speaking of this, the Raptors champion back then, I didn’t play the strongest NBA at that time, but for the title of contemporary Jordan, I decisively pulled him out, and now I look back, wow, two thousand oceans are like that wasted)

Closer to home, back to Li Ran, under his unbelievable eyes, in order to prove that he can still play, Jordan even came to the sidelines where he was doing shooting practice with a bottle, and asked Pippen to hold the drip bottle for him. Then he picked up the basketball and threw it seemingly easily.

Although it looked easy, Li Ran, who basically experienced it personally, knew that this shooting action had almost exhausted all of Jordan's strength.

After the shot, a feeling of loss of strength came to Li Ran's heart. Li Ran only felt that his eyes were dark, and he might faint at any time.

But the ball is still hollow into the net.

The dignified KFC man on the sidelines hurriedly helped Jordan to rest on the sidelines.

If it was a regular season, Phil Jackson would definitely send Jordan to the hospital without hesitation, and let him play until he is better.

However, tonight's game is the battle of Tianwang Mountain in the finals.

In the first two games, Utah Shuangsha and Jordan drew 2-2.

Whoever can win tonight's game will get the match point and gain an absolute advantage in the finals.

The lack of Jordan for the Bulls is basically equivalent to giving up the victory of this game to the opponent.

This result was not only unacceptable to himself, but even the arrogant Jordan would not accept it.

"See? I'm fine."

A smile squeezed out of Jordan's pale face, and he opened his big hands and said to Phil Jackson.

It is 45 kilometers from Park City to Salt Lake City.

Jordan lay on the seat of the bus and spent the whole journey almost in a coma.

In Jordan's body, Li Ran could feel the discomfort, nausea, and weakness caused by food poisoning all the time.

Thinking of the crazy moves that Jordan was going to do tonight, Li Ran had only one thought.

How did he do that?
Did he really take the pain of this disease as nothing?
Arriving at the Energy Solutions Arena, the Bulls' players and staff surrounded Jordan, and Pippen supported him as he walked to the locker room.

The team doctor was whispering to Phil Jackson at this time.

"Phil, we can't take the risk of putting Michael on the field. He could die on the field."

Phil Jackson frowned and remained silent.

When the team doctor wanted to speak again, a low and hoarse voice came from the side: "If I had to choose a way to die, I would choose to die on the court instead of watching the team fail off the court."

This sentence directly blocked the team doctor's mouth.

He looked at Jordan with his head down in disbelief, who was almost being dragged forward by Pippen, and couldn't say anything about not letting Jordan play.

In the locker room, Jordan changed his jersey and was sitting on the bench, bowing his head and tying his shoelaces.

He turned his back to everyone, but Li Ran could see clearly.

Those big hands that were omnipotent on the court trembled slightly, and it took several times longer than usual to tidy up the shoelaces.

Li Ran gradually got used to it. He silently watched Jordan making preparations before the game, and he seemed to have a clear understanding in his heart.

Why did the system abruptly send him to this game, why did he let him experience everything that Jordan experienced.

The name of this training is called will.

After tidying up, Jordan stood up, looking the same as usual.

Walking out of the player tunnel, Jordan faced the boos all over the sky with no expression on his face.

The reason why the Jazz's home court has become the famous devil's home court in the entire NBA is not only because of its geographical advantages brought about by its high altitude, but also because of the fanatical fans who believe in Mormonism.

But Jordan didn't seem to hear the deafening abuse and boos at all, so he walked onto the court and started warming up.

He just took a few random shots and went back to the bench.

Sitting on the chair, Jordan randomly pulled out a towel and covered his head, as if he was resting with his eyes closed, waiting for the start of the battle.

But only Li Ran knew that Jordan covered his head with a towel just to cover up his sweat.

He didn't want anyone to see his weakness and powerlessness at this moment.

Li Ran's consciousness allowed him to clearly see everything on the sidelines.

On the other side, Stockton stood beside Malone with a vaguely stern smile on his face, looking towards Jordan while whispering something to Malone.

Ma Long had his hips akimbo, his thick elbows were extremely conspicuous, and there was an undisguised smug smile on his face.

The game started soon, and Li Ran carefully observed and experienced Jordan's every move. This kind of angle to observe the basketball god at the peak was a rare opportunity for Li Ran.

Although the current Jordan is still very weak, but the strength gushing out from nowhere supports Jordan to run and jump on the court as usual.

In the first quarter, the Bulls performed extremely poorly.

In this day and age, defense is still the main theme of the game.

But the Bulls allowed the Jazz to score 29 points in a single quarter.

And they themselves only scored a poor 16 points.

With a 13-point difference, in other games, the lagging team can almost be sentenced to death.

The Jazz fans on the sidelines have also cheered, as if their team has won the game, and even the entire series.

Jordan also struggled in the first quarter. His breakthrough was weak, his post-up was disorganized, and his shot was out of sight.

Everything is going in the most unfavorable direction for the Bulls.

During the intermission, Jordan didn't listen to what Phil Jackson was doing. He just subconsciously gulped water.

Li Ran noticed that what Jordan was drinking was not Gatorade. The bottle in his hand did not have any manufacturer's logo, but a white label with a line written by hand.

Micheal's Secret Stuff
This is a sports drink specially prepared for him by Jordan's nutritionist.

During the short inter-section break, Jordan drank more than one bottle of this drink, then supported his knees and stood up vigorously.

He looked up at the scoreboard above his head, his eyes were as sharp as a knife!
