I'm good at basketball too

Chapter 123 The Will Beyond the Flesh

In the second quarter, Jordan used practical actions to prove one thing to everyone in that era, and to Li Ran who was watching the game in his body, that is. . .

he!
Why is it—

The god of basketball!

Pippen passed the ball to Jordan, making him the end point of the triangle offense, as he has done in countless games.

He stood at the top of the arc with the ball and kept knocking off Hornacek's hands on his waist.

The death ray gun continued to stick to Jordan persistently, still spouting trash.

In the past, no one dared to talk trash to Jordan. The last person to talk trash to Jordan was a stunned young high school rookie named Garnett.

However, Hornacek may feel that his team has won the game, and Jordan is indeed out of shape today.

"Michael, you're as soft as a marshmallow today."

Jordan didn't seem to hear Hornacek's words, but continued to hold the ball, looking for opportunities for singles.

Li Ran watched Jordan's sweat slip from his forehead, gathered on his chin, and then fell to the ground and fell to pieces. He didn't know what kind of attack method Jordan would take.

Is it gorgeous footsteps, or a unparalleled breakthrough?

But Jordan didn't use either.

Drop the ball, break through, pull back, pull up, jump shot.

It was an extremely simple movement, but the ball fell directly into the basket as if it had been positioned.

Jordan ran toward the backcourt without looking back.

He chose the easiest way to play this ball.

Li Ran knew that the reason why he didn't respond to Hornacek's trash talk was because Jordan wanted to put all his strength into the game.

At the end of the second quarter, Karl Malone asked Stockton next to him with some doubts as he looked at Jordan who was walking towards the locker room with his head down.

"He looks like he has a fever of 40 degrees?"

Stockton nodded, "He's really hot."

"So, with a 40-degree fever, he scored 17 points in a single quarter?"

Karl Malone looked at the lead of only 4 points, and suddenly felt that this game was not as sure as he thought.

Looking at Jordan who could hardly stand up after returning to the locker room, Phil Jackson sighed inwardly.

Thanks to Jordan.

It can only be Jordan.

If it weren't for Jordan's 17 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, the Bulls would have lost the game.

However, how long can Jordan last in this state?

Will it break with a "bang" at a certain moment like a spring stretched to the limit?
In the third quarter, Phil Jackson chose to let Jordan rest for a while.

But after only sitting off the court for 4 minutes, Jordan went into battle again.

The Bulls really can't do without him, especially at this particular point in time.

finals!
G5!

Battle of Tianwang Mountain!
Under the leadership of Jordan, the Bulls united as one, firmly biting the point difference with the Jazz.

At the end of the third quarter, the Bulls trailed by only five points on the road.

Jordan has scored a full 25 points, not at all like a food poisoning patient with a fever of 40 degrees.

After the desperate battle in the previous four games, the two teams have already understood each other very well.

In the fourth quarter, Jordan didn't rest for a minute, and then went into the final battle.

When the final whistle sounded, Energy Solutions Arena was as quiet as a library.

All eyes were fixed on the figure in the red No. 23 jersey standing in the center of the court.

"He...does he really have a high fever?" a Jazz fan murmured in disbelief.

出场44分钟，27次出手命中13球, 三分球5中2, 38分7篮板5助攻3抢断1盖帽, 这就是这个男人，在这场比赛中交出的数据。

88-86, the Bulls won this crucial Tianwangshan battle with a two-point difference in the away game!
Li Ran was in an extremely shocking mood for a long time.

He couldn't imagine how Jordan could hand over such data with such a body.

This man is as terrifying as a god of war!
The god of basketball, well-deserved reputation!
But this was his last thought.

Before leaving this special training ground, the last scene Li Ran saw was Pippen rushing towards Jordan immediately.

Then, it was dark.

It was dark outside, but Li Ran didn't turn on the light, just sat on the sofa blankly.

This game really gave him too much shock.

There is no distance to feel Jordan's miraculous ball skills come second.

In this game, the iron-like willpower that Jordan showed was what touched Li Ran the most.

It turns out that human willpower can really surpass the weakness of the body and create miracles that others cannot imagine.

That's right, in this case, what is Jordan's performance if it is not a miracle?
Recalling that in the last game, because of a slight cold, he sat on the sidelines with peace of mind and watched his teammates being beaten by opponents on the field. Li Ran gradually understood the meaning of a word.

This word is called responsibility.

Since his teammates chose him, he has the responsibility to lead his teammates to victory.

This is something more important to Li Ran than Jordan's skills.

Li Ran couldn't help but think of the year he traveled through.

A certain player who has also won the FMVP more than once has performed poorly on the team.

Early the next morning, as usual, Li Ran was the first to arrive at the Pepsi Center to start his daily training.

George Karl happened to be on the sidelines. It was very strange to see Li Ran walking in after changing his clothes.

"Li, the team only assembled this afternoon, why did you come so early?"

Li Ran came to the sidelines with a smile.

"Training."

"Is your cold better?"

"Ahem, basically it's almost there, and it shouldn't affect tomorrow's game."

Li Ran covered his mouth and coughed twice, then threw the ball.

The next day's game, the Nuggets played against the Heat at home.

The Nuggets' injury list is still overcrowded. Both Anthony and Billups feel that they have a bad cold and continue to hang up the exemption card.

But at Li Ran's strong request, George Karl put Li Ran in the starting lineup.

Relying on Li Ran's outstanding performance, the Nuggets defeated the Heat with difficulty at home and completed a double play against the Heat!

46分钟，32分15篮板3助攻2抢断。

Li Ran successfully led the team to keep the victory in Denver.

After the game, all the main players returned to the team, and O'Neal also started the game. Facing the Magic that had just defeated them not long ago, he successfully completed his revenge.

With a victory, they ushered in the grand event of the NBA every season.

The All-Star game is about to begin!

As a fledgling rookie at the beginning of this year, Li Ran has created a moderate record.

He became the only player to participate in all five official All-Star programs at the same time.

Rookie Challenge, main match, three-point contest, slam dunk contest, skill challenge, Li Ran's name is on the list of five competitions!
