NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade
Chapter 147 Come on, pour Lin a cappuccino!
Chapter 147 Come on, pour Lin a cappuccino!
The Bulls' intensive defense made the Bullets' offense very poor. They couldn't find any good offensive opportunities and offensive methods. The huge flaws in the lineup made the Bullets defense useless. No way!
Strickland and Chaney, two outside players with no shooting ability, also tried to hit the basket, trying to break the Bulls' defense with breakthroughs, but four of the five players on the Bulls field were top-notch players. For defensive experts, there is really not much difference between rushing into their encirclement and committing suicide.
And even Lin Tian, the only one who is not very good at defense, has extremely keen insight and prediction. He will always appear in the Bullets' passing route, allowing Strickland and Chaney to rush into the paint. , and it is also difficult to find suitable passing opportunities.
In the first 6 minutes, the Bullets made only 7 of 2 shots and made 3 turnovers, scoring only 4 points in total!
On the contrary, it was the Bulls who made 11 of 7 shots and 4 free throws. They scored 18 points in less than half a quarter!
The Bullets' four-high lineup, which the Bullets were proud of, was defeated by the Bulls in only half a quarter!
What makes Bullets head coach Bickerstaff even more headache is that he has no room for adjustment.
The Bulls' defense completely exposes its flaws to you, completely letting go of the Bullets' perimeter without even taking a look!
Unless all the Bullets players suddenly learn how to shoot beautiful 3-pointers, there is absolutely no way around this situation!
The only thing Bickerstaff can do is to replace Tracy Murray, the team's only reliable shooter, hoping that he can change the situation on the court.
But Murray is definitely accurate, and he is 2 meters tall, but his defense and confrontation are simply not as good as Chaney. Otherwise, he would not be able to only play as the sixth man in the team.
As soon as Murray came on the court, before he could catch the ball and shoot a 3-pointer, Jordan headed straight for Murray like a great white shark that smelled blood!
For 3 consecutive rounds, Jordan posted up in the low post three times in a row, and easily ran to the edge of the 3-second zone three times in a row. Then, before the Bullets' defense could come up, he easily turned around and made a shot!
After 3 rounds, Murray finally got an open shot from beyond the 3-point line.
"Boom!"
What he returned to the head coach was a painful sound of iron.
But the Bullets had no time to suffer, because the rebound of the missed 3-pointer bounced very far. Lin Tian, who was near the free throw line, had prepared early, jumped up high, and collected the rebound into his arms. Once again, he launched a lightning-fast counterattack!
Murray and Strickland were trying to catch up with their lives, one on the left and one on the right, stuck on both sides of Lin Tian, making it impossible for him to easily take action and finish.
But Lin Tian seemed to not see these two people at all, lowering his head and dribbling forward as he rushed forward.
Then when he came to the Bullets' basket, Lin Tian didn't even stop. He didn't even look back. He leaked the ball backwards from his crotch, and the basketball flew towards the free throw line.
No need to look, Jordan has already followed up in time, grabbed the basketball and pulled it up to perform a one-arm gliding dunk!
8: 0!
After the Bullets made substitutions, the Bulls played another 8-0 run!
26: 4!
Just halfway through the first quarter, the Bulls widened the point difference between the two sides to an incredible 22 points!
Then, Jackson waved his hand coquettishly. Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman took a break at the same time, and Kerr, Hubble, and Kukoc came on.
The Bulls' new lineup finally no longer has such a strong sense of oppression and aggression on the defensive end, and it also lacks Jordan's nearly invincible singles end point.
In this case, the Bullets finally regained some offensive feeling and started to score.
But the three new players are all good at shooting. Under Lin Tian's guidance and the fast pace of the whole team, their offensive efficiency is no lower than in the first half. Even if the Bullets start to score, both sides can't. The gap has no intention of narrowing at all, but is still slowly widening!
39: 14!
At the end of the first quarter, the point difference between the two sides reached 25 points!The Bulls even scored a terrifying 39 points in a single quarter!
That's it, even though the Bulls' iron triangle only played half of the first quarter, and the Bullets' four main players played almost the entire quarter!
In the second quarter of the game, when the main players and core members of the Bullets had to take a rest, and the Bulls' iron triangle "staggered their travels" and began to bully the Bullets' bench lineup on the court, the suspense of this game was basically over. It's over.
74: 30!
At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides had reached an unimaginably exaggerated state.
The Bulls used their highly targeted defense to completely contain all of the Bullets' offensive routines. At the same time, they also used their own fast, concise, and highly targeted offensive routines on the offensive end. The Bullets were able to defeat the Bullets without fighting back. Power!
With such a huge point difference, the entire second half of the game naturally became garbage time. Less than halfway through the third quarter, when the point difference reached 45 points, Jackson replaced all his main players. Ming Jin retreats his troops!
Then, a few minutes later, when the Bullets narrowed the point difference to less than 40 points, Bickerstaff was no longer stubborn and replaced all his main players on the court.
If you play this kind of game too often, it will easily create a psychological shadow on the players. There is no need to let them waste their energy on the court. Instead of letting them play desperately on the court, it is better to let them come down and think carefully about the next step. How to deal with the Bulls' intensive defense and targeted strategies in every game.
Even if the Bulls' intensive defense cannot be solved due to lineup problems, Bickerstaff still has to think carefully about how to contain the Bulls' offense!
If we can't score, then you can't score either!
At this time, the on-site cameras very accurately captured the Bullets' bench, starting from head coach Bickerstaff to the team's main players Weber, Howard and others.
Everyone's face was either blank, with their mouths slightly open, looking confused and at a loss, or they were staring at the ground, motionless, looking completely frightened.
At this time, I thought about how everyone on the Bullets worked bravely before the game, and everyone's face was filled with confidence and vitality. This contrast is really too stark!
The gap between the two sides is really too big!
It only took the Bulls half a game to illustrate one thing!
That is, we won 70 games because there is no need to win 80 games. We just need to be first in the league.
And you won 44 games because you tried your best, and you can only win so many games.
The gap between the two sides is clear at a glance!
In the end, the first game of the series ended with a score of 124:80. This was when the Bulls only played seriously for two and a half quarters. If the Bulls maintain the intensity of the game in the first half of the first quarter, tonight I'm afraid they can win by 6-70 points!
全场比赛,乔丹只打了20分钟,就拿下27分5篮板2助攻的漂亮数据,林天出战21分钟,拿下13分13次助攻3次抢断,皮蓬也只打了22分钟,拿下11分5篮板4助攻的全面数据。
In addition, Cole, Kukoc, Hubble, and Longley all scored in double figures. Seven members of the Bulls team scored in double figures. It was a relaxing and enjoyable performance!
At the post-game press conference, Bickerstaff seemed so overwhelmed when faced with reporters' questions. After hesitating for a long time, he said with no confidence: "They are the defending champions. They've won four championships in the past six years, they've won 6 games two years in a row, they're very strong."
"We made a very adequate game plan before the game, and we also did a lot of evaluation and psychological construction on the difficulty of the game. We were even ready to return to the home court with a 0:2 deficit. But...but we..."
Seeing Bibi Kerstaff's hesitation on the stage, a reporter couldn't help it and directly interrupted: "But you still didn't expect that the game would be so difficult and that the gap in strength between you and them would be so big. ,Is it?"
Bickerstaff looked at the reporter, and the reporters in the audience also looked at Bickerstaff. At this time, the two sides fell into a wonderful silence and harmony.
Then, after almost half a minute, Bickerstaff did not wait for anyone to come to the rescue, nor did he wait for any steps to be taken. In desperation, he could only nod and said: "Yes, we still underestimated bull."
As soon as this statement came out, the reporters below were also in an uproar. Although the reporters asked the question with the mentality of watching the excitement and not being afraid of trouble, they really didn't expect that Bickerstaff actually admitted it directly. Coward.
Originally, they thought that for the sake of the team's fighting spirit and confidence in the next game, Bickerstaff had to hold his neck no matter what, insisting on saying that 'the game is not over yet', 'we haven't lost yet', 'see you in Washington' Such harsh words.
The results of it?
After just one game in the series, I was immediately intimidated. Were you so intimidated that you didn’t even dare to say harsh words?
Bickerstaff's direct confession also caused the well-informed reporters to fall into silence for a while. They had never seen this scene before!For a moment, these reporters didn’t even know how to ask questions.
The reporters looked at each other in confusion, which also illustrates the strength and terror of the Bulls.
The Bulls have become so powerful that they can not only wipe out the suspense of the entire series and the resistance of their opponents in one game, but they can also beat reporters until they don't know how to ask questions.
At least, the questions that reporters had prepared before, such as what to do in the next game, what do you think of the disastrous defeat, how to restore the decline, and whether you are confident in advancing, can no longer be asked.
Why ask?People are afraid of being fucked directly.
Bickerstaff's mentality is exactly the mentality of the entire Bullets team today. Their entire team is in a state of confusion. From the coach to the main players to the role players, everyone has lost the mood to fight.
Bickerstaff even canceled a practice scheduled between two away games in Chicago.
He felt that before he found a suitable way to defeat the Bulls, any training would only weaken the team's fighting spirit. Instead of forcing all the players to gather together for training, it would be better to let them have fun. Maybe you can find some new fighting spirit from alcohol and joy!
"They won't practice?" The Bulls players who were training in their own training hall all laughed after learning the news.
They really didn't expect that the Bullets team had such a tough name but such a soft mentality.
There really isn’t anyone who can fight!
"They won't practice anymore, and the venue can't be empty." Jordan chewed gum and said: "Let's go to their hotel to train! Practice right under their noses! A bunch of sissies, I want to train before the second game. , completely destroy all their fighting spirit!"
"Coach, what do you think?"
Jackson looked at a group of people who were eager to give it a try and wanted to stir up trouble. He smiled and said: "We can only do this in Chicago. If we don't do it elsewhere, we might suffer a loss."
Once Jackson said this, how could the Bulls' troublemakers be so polite?A group of people didn't even change their clothes. After returning to the locker room to get their belongings, they got on the team bus and headed towards the hotel where the Bullets were staying!
Even Rodman, who originally said he had a headache and missed today's training, after hearing that he could stir up trouble, didn't even think about it and drove directly to the hotel. There was a lot of fun to watch and he could stir up trouble.' Hua Da Chong' is never absent.
Since it is in Chicago, the Bulls have unlimited privileges. For example, normally, whether it is the playoffs or the regular season, the league and the hotel will never allow such naked provocations to occur, and will not allow a certain Players from one team go to the opponent's hotel to train.
Who knows what will happen when two groups of athletes full of muscles and full of passion come together?
But who told this to be Chicago?
When the hotel manager heard that the Bulls were coming to train, he didn't care whether the bullshit excuse like "our training facility is leaking today, so I want to use your training facility" was reliable, and he didn't care whether the sun was shining brightly in Chicago at the moment. The temperature was as high as 33 degrees, but without thinking, he opened the door and led the Bulls team into the hotel.
At the same time, the manager looked like a fucking old hermaphrodite. Not only did he personally take the Bulls players to the training ground, but he also assigned a dozen waiters to ask them to ask the Bullets if the training ground was still used today. .
If it's not used, it will be given to the Bulls.
As for such a simple matter, why do we need to send so many people at once?
Because there were about 30 people from the Bullets staying in the hotel this time!If the hotel hadn't been short of manpower, the manager would have even wanted to send 20 more people to knock on the door of each room to avoid accidentally missing a player or assistant coach's door.
Since we want to provoke and demonstrate, we must do everything we can!
Lin Tianna looked like he was sorry for meeting him so late. He put his arm around the manager's shoulders and said, "Brother, what do you call me? You have a bright future!"
"Billy! Just call me Billy! If you have any instructions, you can come to me at any time, anything!" Billy handed over his business card with a smile and said: "I am very professional!"
"I remember you! From now on, we will be friends!" Lin Tian patted Billy on the shoulder and put his business card away.
For a service staff who is so knowledgeable and knows how to get into trouble, Lin Tian feels that he will definitely need this guy in the future!
At this time, Billy's walkie-talkie suddenly rang, and Billy smiled and said: "Lin, Michael, the good news is that we knocked on the room doors of all the Bullet Team members, and everyone who was still in the hotel received our call. Notice, as for whether they will come down next, I will update you at any time."
"Our staff also said that someone seemed to be training in the training hall at the moment, but my people took a look and didn't recognize who that person was. I think he is most likely not from the Bullets!"
"Sensible!" Lin Tian patted Billy on the shoulder again.
He thinks this Billy is really good!
It's '[-] out of [-]' that this guy wasn't from the Bullet Team, so he was training him very cleverly!
At this point, he can train in this training hall that has been chartered by the Bullets for a long time. If he is not from the Bullets, who can he be?Did the old man downstairs take a stroll and sneak in here to pick up the children and play wild ball?
What a crap!
At this moment, if a dishonest person insists on asking the person who is training if he is a Bullets player, and then tells the Bulls that someone is training, then the Bulls drama will not be easy to sing. .
If the league pursues the Bulls' provocation on the Bullets' territory in the future, the Bulls will have no way to explain it.
But now, we, the Bulls, are going to a training facility without Bullets players!
Even if there is, it was an accidental encounter!
Yes, a chance encounter!
Lin Tian, who felt deeply that Billy was sensible, took out two Franklins from his pocket, stuffed them into Billy's pocket and said, "Go ahead and do your work first."
"You won't..." Billy frowned and looked at the more than 10 burly men. After all, he was a staff member and could pick a fight. If there was a conflict or even a fight on his territory, he would Also have to be unlucky.
"Don't worry, we are here for training, what else can we do to do bad things?" Jordan smiled and took out four Franklins from his pocket, then glanced at Lin Tian provocatively, and then said: "We just play ball!"
Billy, who had made a fortune in blood, could not say more. After nodding and bending, he gave everyone a business card and quickly left.
"Would you like to make a bet to see who is training in this gym?" Jordan's gambling instinct came back immediately. He looked at everyone on the team and said, "I bet $200, it's Chris Webber."
"Can Weber take the initiative to train at this time? With his noodle-like personality?" Rodman said disdainfully: "I bet 200, it's Howard."
"If Howard knows how to work overtime, I will cut off my head on the spot and play it as a ball for you!" Pippen said disdainfully: "He just comes to work. You will never see him touch a basketball outside of work. ! I bet this guy is sleeping right now! I bet 200 it’s Strickland!”
Then, Kerr, Longley, Kukoc and others placed bets one after another, placing their bets on several Bullets players, and all stated their reasons.
"I'll pay 200!" Lin Tian looked at everyone looking at him and said easily: "The people training inside are not any of the people you just mentioned! If you win, I will kill you all!"
"Do you know who is training there?" Jordan looked at Lin Tian, suspecting that Lin Tian had some inside information.
"Michael, Michael." Lin Tian spread his hands and said: "You don't know me very well. I never cheat when gambling! After all, I can kill you all if I don't cheat. If I cheat, will you still be alive? ? Give me half of your annual salary directly!"
"Okay!" Jordan's gambling nature was completely ignited by Lin Tian, completely forgetting his vow last year not to gamble with Lin Tian: "I will double it! If it weren't for any of us just mentioned, everyone here would The bet is all yours, and I will double it for you! But if one of us wins..."
"Same as you, I'll double the compensation to you!" Lin Tian took Jordan's bet without even thinking about it.
Jordan immediately became excited!The bets they placed just now included more than half of the Bullets' players!From Jordan's point of view, this is a game where the flying dragon rides on the face, and A is sure to win in the past!
If I can lose this, I will never bet even a dime with Lin Tian again!
This time, even if the bet was only a few thousand dollars, Jordan felt that it was finally time for him to be proud and proud and beat Lin Tian for once!
"Steve, go get Lin a cup of coffee and a cup of cappuccino!" Jordan was elated now, waiting to open the training door and beat Lin Tian for once: "Lin, can you win today?" Me? Can you kill me instantly? In this case, you can beat me, Jordan, today, and I will eat this basketball on the spot!"
Jordan was full of confidence. He pushed open the door of the training hall and heard the "bang bang bang" sound of hitting the ball from inside. He was waiting to see who from the Bullets was secretly practicing, and then he would do it again. A few words of ridicule to Lin Tian.
As the Bulls army arrived, the guy who was practicing looked back at the Bulls people... and was suddenly stunned.What's going on? There are so many people?Are they all from the Bulls?
He is just over 2 meters tall, with explosive muscles all over his body, a flat head, a silly look, and facial features that are not very smart, and Jordan was stunned for a moment.
No, brother, who are you?
Jordan didn't recognize who this person was at first, and turned back to look at his teammates.
He wanted to see... if anyone knew this person, and if anyone had bet that this guy was training in the training hall just now.
There was silence and confusion, and all the players on the Bulls team showed the same expressions and thoughts as Jordan.
No, brother, who are you?
Moreover, not only the players, but also Clemens and other assistant coaches, team doctors, team trainers and others who came with the team for fear that the players would cause trouble, were also confused.
do not know!
I don't know it at all!
It’s over, no one knows him, so it’s a crapshoot!No one knows him, how can anyone bet on this guy?
Thinking of this, Jordan moved his eyes to Lin Tian.
Then Lin Tian also shook his head: "Don't look at me, I don't know him either."
Upon hearing this, Jordan became energetic again: "Maybe this guy is not a player of the Bullets! Which player can practice extra without an assistant coach? If he is not a player of the Bullets, then it will be a draw this time !”
Jordan had the last hope left in his heart.
Even if we don't win a big victory, a tie is still a record-breaking one!If it’s a tie this time, I’ll beat him next time!Let's do it steadily, step by step!
Jordan's words were actually a bit shameless. When they made the bet just now, there was no such additional condition.
Lin Tian didn't care about this.
It's true that he didn't recognize who this guy was, but just looking at his strong muscles and standard basketball player figure, this guy is not a professional basketball player. I can't believe it!
Lin Tian is very sure that this guy is definitely a member of the Bullets. As for why no one knows him?
In fact, it is easy to understand: according to the rules, the upper limit of the number of players for each team in the regular season is 12+3.
In other words, the team can sign 15 players, but only 12 can play in each game. The other three players are the team's backup force when the team has injuries, suspensions or other accidents. , responsible for filling the vacancies in the team.
If you encounter unlucky situations, the three backup players of the team may only be responsible for training throughout the season. Let alone playing, they will not even have many opportunities to wear training clothes and sit on the bench. Most of the time, they wear suits and sit behind the bench.
Therefore, it is actually very normal for a team to have several players that no one knows, not even the video analysts and coaching staff of each team!
After all, they may not get any playing opportunities throughout the season.
Here Jordan swaggered towards the unknown player who was alone, chatted with him for a few words, and then walked back dejectedly.
"FUXX! This bastard is actually a player of the Bullets, but he didn't enter the active list for the playoffs. Damn it! He didn't even enter the active list, and he can't even play on the court. He's doing nothing here! He's causing me to lose money! Come over here and give Lin the money. Calculate how much it is. I don’t have enough cash. I’ll give it to you before the game tomorrow!”
The Bulls players immediately took out their money, counting and counting. Within 2 minutes, they handed Lin Tian a thick stack of American knives. Lin Tian glanced at it and saw that it was almost 3000 US dollars. Including Jordan's double, just by talking, another $6000 will be accounted for!
This kind of gambling makes money much faster than playing golf!
However, when Lin Tian looked at the guy who had turned his head and started training again, he suddenly felt a little familiar.
Especially looking at his clumsy footsteps, poor finishing at the basket and poor shooting posture, Lin Tian felt more and more familiar the more he looked at it.
"What are you looking at?" Rodman came over, followed Lin Tian and took a look at the player's training screen. He immediately shook his head and said: "This is too bad. I'm afraid this offensive level is not as good as mine." ! It’s all for nothing. He’s so bad during training. No wonder he can’t be on the team’s active list.”
Less offensive than you?A body full of tendons?
Lin Tian frowned and suddenly remembered who this was!
The future famous 'Big Ben' Ben Wallace!
A guy who was not selected in the 1996 draft, and then signed with the Bullets for a minimum salary of one year as an undrafted player, and finally managed to play in the NBA.
However, the current Wallace has not yet shown his ability to be four-time Defensive Player of the Year, five-time All-Defensive First Team, and five-time All-NBA Team selection in the future. He has only played one game throughout the season. In 1 games, the average playing time was only 5 minutes, and he averaged only 34 point and 5.8 rebound per game. A super second-hand player!
There are countless players of this level inside and outside the league, but no one knows him. That is only human nature. After all, no one will waste energy on a player who can barely play.
Moreover, you can't blame Lin Tian for not recognizing this guy at first.
Even if you don’t have your signature afro, and you don’t even wear a jersey with your name on it, who can recognize you?
What's more, the current Wallace has none of the domineering and fierceness that he will have in the future. Instead, he looks stupid. Who can compare him with the league's first blue-collar man who will fight against O'Neal and Duncan in the finals? Connect together!
However, it is in line with his character for this guy to come out and practice alone when the whole team is not training.
If it weren't for this determination to practice hard, Wallace would never have become the toughest and most terrifying defensive master in the league with his height!
After all, this guy claims to be 206 centimeters tall, but Lin Tian thinks that is the height after adding at least 5 centimeters of afro. Now with this flat head, he is almost as tall as Jordan when he was standing next to him just now!
This guy's real height is most likely no more than 2 meters!
"What are you looking at, Lin? We are fighting in groups, and you won't come?" Rodman asked Lin Tian when he saw that he was still watching Wallace practice alone.
"I'm looking to see which of you two is taller."
"Of course it's me." Rodman glanced at Wallace and said impatiently: "I'm 206 centimeters tall. This kid is about the same height as Michael. He's 2 meters at most! I'm a head taller than him!"
"Then do you dare to stand with him and compare heights?" Lin Tian looked at Rodman, who was only 7-8 centimeters taller than him, and couldn't help but complain.
This 'flower bug' really doesn't have any shame at all. Why is he just lying here with his eyes open?
"Height is nothing, whether it's 198 or 206. The important thing is that the rebound can always fall in my hands. What's the use of those numbers? When you are 50 years old, won't you shrink? When you are 80 years old, you won't be buried. In the soil? Apart from using more wood for the coffin, what's the use of those few centimeters in height?"
"Superficial! Too superficial! Lin, you disappoint me so much!"
After Rodman finished speaking, he ran away quickly without even looking at Lin Tian.
Good guy!
Lin Tian looked at Rodman's shameless back and wanted to give him a thumbs up.
In order to conceal his height, how could such philosophical words come out of his mouth?
Really, no shame at all!
Next, the Bulls were divided into 5 teams and played 4V4 for half of the game.
However, after barely playing a few rounds, a group of people became a bit boring.
They are here to stir up trouble, but all members of the Bullet Team are really weak, and no one is willing to take the initiative!
Just a role player among role players, who is not even qualified to guard the water dispenser. He can only sit behind the water dispenser and be guarded by the water dispenser to practice there. The ridicule is meaningless.
After fighting for a while, Jordan, who found it boring, couldn't hold it in anymore. He walked up to Wallace and said, "Boy, do you dare to bullfight?"
"Anything is fine." Wallace looked at Jordan, and he was not afraid at all!
There is no change in his expression. At least it seems that he is not afraid of Jordan at all!
"Come on! Score 21 points first! I'll let you serve first!"
After Jordan finished speaking, he walked to the free throw line and passed the ball to Wallace.
The Bulls players also gathered over immediately. They wanted to see how this matchup would turn out.
Although they didn't know Wallace, seeing this guy accept Jordan's challenge without hesitation, and then getting ready to serve with a ferocious look on his face, everyone felt in their hearts: This guy must be hard to mess with!
Everyone has a little bit of expectation now!After all, there is a guy in the Bulls who was once unknown, but is not afraid of Jordan at all, Lin Tian!
Although Lin Tian played one-on-one with Jordan for two full years and was beaten for two years, his progress was also very obvious. At the same time, the strength he showed in training and bullfighting has long made Bulls players Convinced!
Could this guy with a flat head be the second Lin Tian?
"Snapped!"
Before the Bulls players' imagination was over, Wallace lost the ball.
It wasn't broken by Jordan.
This guy had just blocked Jordan with his back, trying to hit it directly from the top of the arc, but he used too much force while dribbling, and the basketball hit his foot and went out of bounds.
And then...
This was Wallace's only offensive opportunity in the first round of singles.
21: 0!
The food is outrageous.
Even Jordan was a little embarrassed. He felt that this guy had no resistance at all.
"Do you dare to play another game? This time I let you, let's change the serve!" Jordan, who had not tortured enough, thought for a while and brought up a one-on-one mode again. He was thinking that maybe this guy is not good at defense, and even more so. He is good at attacking, but he failed in the first attack because he was just too nervous?
then……
21: 0!
Even if his hair was changed, Wallace didn't show any resistance. He was like a melon and a vegetable being chopped by Jordan, and he got another 21:0!
By this time, the Bulls players were a little bit disappointed.
At this level, after eating a few dishes, do you dare to accept Jordan's one-on-one challenge?
Jordan was so bored that he stopped talking rubbish...
How to say this feeling?
You wouldn't be embarrassed to talk trash when you were dueling with elementary school students, right?
"It's a pity that I'm full of tendons." Rodman shook his head, stood up and started packing his things. He felt that he had no fun today and was too lazy to waste any more time.
"Dennis, I think he has potential." Lin Tian suddenly stopped Rodman and said, "He can follow the same path as you! If you are willing to give him special training, maybe he can become the second Rodman in the league." Where’s Deman?”
"The second Rodman?" Rodman turned around, glanced at Wallace, and then shook his head decisively: "I'm in good shape. Forget about special training. If I have the time, I can sleep more in Hollywood." How good is your girl? What a waste of time with him. Let’s go. See you in the game tomorrow.”
Rodman waved his hand, turned around and left.
As Rodman left, other members of the Bulls team also began to pack their things, and then left one by one.
When Wennington finally packed up his things, he looked at Lin Tiandao and said, "Lin, aren't you leaving? We came by bus."
"You guys go, I want to play for a while longer." Lin Tian waved his hand, he had an idea in his mind.
"Then can you tell me how you know that among the Bullets training here, there are absolutely none of the people we just mentioned?" Wennington rolled his eyes and still raised a question.
"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Lin Tian shrugged.
"Impossible, I know you better than Lin. If you weren't sure, you wouldn't bet with them." Wennington spread his hands to show you to stop talking nonsense.
"Okay, okay." Lin Tian sighed and said: "Remember that hotel manager Billy? He is obviously a senior NBA fan. He knows us very well, so there is a high probability that he also knows the Bullets players very well! Then The people he sent to the stadium to see if anyone from the Bullets was training were most likely fans! In other words, for hotel employees, fans must be rushing to do this kind of job that allows them to go to the arena and have close contact with NBA players. Dry!"
"Then when this person sees someone training, he will probably say: It's Webb, Howard, Strickland or someone else training, but we all heard the voice on the intercom, and he didn't say that explain."
"That means that there is a high probability that he does not know the player who is training, so the answer is obvious. Either the person training is not a Bullets player, or he is a sidekick that no one knows."
"Of course, it's possible that I was completely wrong. For example, Billy only knew people from the Bulls. He was just for work and didn't like basketball. For example, the person he sent was a very honest guy who didn't do anything at all. Anything superfluous; maybe he just asked someone to go to the arena and see if anyone was there."
"But I think it's worth a gamble. My chances of winning are quite high, aren't they?"
Lin Tian didn't know whether Wennington understood his analysis, but Wennington did nodded and left a sentence: "Michael is right, unless you have too much money and no place to throw it, don't do it anyway." You gamble!"
Then, he hurriedly left the arena.
Lin Tian ignored Wennington who left, but continued to stare at Wallace who was practicing the most basic turning hook shot under the basket, but his shooting percentage was impossible to watch.
"You shouldn't practice this. Didn't you realize that you have no offensive talent at all?" Lin Tian watched as Wallace once again took out a lame back-up step, and then made a fierce move into the air that no one could deceive. After feinting and then turning around and striking with a hook, he finally couldn't bear it any longer.
"You don't need to take care of it." Wallace glanced at Lin Tian, said nothing, and continued to practice his back-up skills.
"You signed a one-year contract with the Bullets, right? With your current level, why do you think they should renew your contract next season? Why do you think you can find another job in the NBA and survive? Or, you Is he just a guy who is just waiting to die and just wants to look at the present?"
"With your body, you can cheat a year's salary out of one year. When you can't cheat anymore, you can retire and find a high school or college coach. Is that what you think?"
"I'm not the kind of person who just waits to die!" Wallace was obviously irritated by Lin Tian. He glared at Lin Tian and said: "I work harder than everyone on our team! I come to every training. The earliest one, the last one to leave! I...I just need a chance!"
"A chance for you to play and then use such ridiculous steps on the court to prove that you are really not good?" Lin Tian would not give Wallace face and continued to taunt him.
"What on earth do you mean!" Wallace looked at Lin Tian and said angrily: "You are just here to attack me and tell me that I can't play in the NBA and ask me to change my job quickly? Is that so? I tell you, with me like this Countless people have said this! But I won’t give up! I know I can play the game well!”
(End of this chapter)
The Bulls' intensive defense made the Bullets' offense very poor. They couldn't find any good offensive opportunities and offensive methods. The huge flaws in the lineup made the Bullets defense useless. No way!
Strickland and Chaney, two outside players with no shooting ability, also tried to hit the basket, trying to break the Bulls' defense with breakthroughs, but four of the five players on the Bulls field were top-notch players. For defensive experts, there is really not much difference between rushing into their encirclement and committing suicide.
And even Lin Tian, the only one who is not very good at defense, has extremely keen insight and prediction. He will always appear in the Bullets' passing route, allowing Strickland and Chaney to rush into the paint. , and it is also difficult to find suitable passing opportunities.
In the first 6 minutes, the Bullets made only 7 of 2 shots and made 3 turnovers, scoring only 4 points in total!
On the contrary, it was the Bulls who made 11 of 7 shots and 4 free throws. They scored 18 points in less than half a quarter!
The Bullets' four-high lineup, which the Bullets were proud of, was defeated by the Bulls in only half a quarter!
What makes Bullets head coach Bickerstaff even more headache is that he has no room for adjustment.
The Bulls' defense completely exposes its flaws to you, completely letting go of the Bullets' perimeter without even taking a look!
Unless all the Bullets players suddenly learn how to shoot beautiful 3-pointers, there is absolutely no way around this situation!
The only thing Bickerstaff can do is to replace Tracy Murray, the team's only reliable shooter, hoping that he can change the situation on the court.
But Murray is definitely accurate, and he is 2 meters tall, but his defense and confrontation are simply not as good as Chaney. Otherwise, he would not be able to only play as the sixth man in the team.
As soon as Murray came on the court, before he could catch the ball and shoot a 3-pointer, Jordan headed straight for Murray like a great white shark that smelled blood!
For 3 consecutive rounds, Jordan posted up in the low post three times in a row, and easily ran to the edge of the 3-second zone three times in a row. Then, before the Bullets' defense could come up, he easily turned around and made a shot!
After 3 rounds, Murray finally got an open shot from beyond the 3-point line.
"Boom!"
What he returned to the head coach was a painful sound of iron.
But the Bullets had no time to suffer, because the rebound of the missed 3-pointer bounced very far. Lin Tian, who was near the free throw line, had prepared early, jumped up high, and collected the rebound into his arms. Once again, he launched a lightning-fast counterattack!
Murray and Strickland were trying to catch up with their lives, one on the left and one on the right, stuck on both sides of Lin Tian, making it impossible for him to easily take action and finish.
But Lin Tian seemed to not see these two people at all, lowering his head and dribbling forward as he rushed forward.
Then when he came to the Bullets' basket, Lin Tian didn't even stop. He didn't even look back. He leaked the ball backwards from his crotch, and the basketball flew towards the free throw line.
No need to look, Jordan has already followed up in time, grabbed the basketball and pulled it up to perform a one-arm gliding dunk!
8: 0!
After the Bullets made substitutions, the Bulls played another 8-0 run!
26: 4!
Just halfway through the first quarter, the Bulls widened the point difference between the two sides to an incredible 22 points!
Then, Jackson waved his hand coquettishly. Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman took a break at the same time, and Kerr, Hubble, and Kukoc came on.
The Bulls' new lineup finally no longer has such a strong sense of oppression and aggression on the defensive end, and it also lacks Jordan's nearly invincible singles end point.
In this case, the Bullets finally regained some offensive feeling and started to score.
But the three new players are all good at shooting. Under Lin Tian's guidance and the fast pace of the whole team, their offensive efficiency is no lower than in the first half. Even if the Bullets start to score, both sides can't. The gap has no intention of narrowing at all, but is still slowly widening!
39: 14!
At the end of the first quarter, the point difference between the two sides reached 25 points!The Bulls even scored a terrifying 39 points in a single quarter!
That's it, even though the Bulls' iron triangle only played half of the first quarter, and the Bullets' four main players played almost the entire quarter!
In the second quarter of the game, when the main players and core members of the Bullets had to take a rest, and the Bulls' iron triangle "staggered their travels" and began to bully the Bullets' bench lineup on the court, the suspense of this game was basically over. It's over.
74: 30!
At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides had reached an unimaginably exaggerated state.
The Bulls used their highly targeted defense to completely contain all of the Bullets' offensive routines. At the same time, they also used their own fast, concise, and highly targeted offensive routines on the offensive end. The Bullets were able to defeat the Bullets without fighting back. Power!
With such a huge point difference, the entire second half of the game naturally became garbage time. Less than halfway through the third quarter, when the point difference reached 45 points, Jackson replaced all his main players. Ming Jin retreats his troops!
Then, a few minutes later, when the Bullets narrowed the point difference to less than 40 points, Bickerstaff was no longer stubborn and replaced all his main players on the court.
If you play this kind of game too often, it will easily create a psychological shadow on the players. There is no need to let them waste their energy on the court. Instead of letting them play desperately on the court, it is better to let them come down and think carefully about the next step. How to deal with the Bulls' intensive defense and targeted strategies in every game.
Even if the Bulls' intensive defense cannot be solved due to lineup problems, Bickerstaff still has to think carefully about how to contain the Bulls' offense!
If we can't score, then you can't score either!
At this time, the on-site cameras very accurately captured the Bullets' bench, starting from head coach Bickerstaff to the team's main players Weber, Howard and others.
Everyone's face was either blank, with their mouths slightly open, looking confused and at a loss, or they were staring at the ground, motionless, looking completely frightened.
At this time, I thought about how everyone on the Bullets worked bravely before the game, and everyone's face was filled with confidence and vitality. This contrast is really too stark!
The gap between the two sides is really too big!
It only took the Bulls half a game to illustrate one thing!
That is, we won 70 games because there is no need to win 80 games. We just need to be first in the league.
And you won 44 games because you tried your best, and you can only win so many games.
The gap between the two sides is clear at a glance!
In the end, the first game of the series ended with a score of 124:80. This was when the Bulls only played seriously for two and a half quarters. If the Bulls maintain the intensity of the game in the first half of the first quarter, tonight I'm afraid they can win by 6-70 points!
全场比赛,乔丹只打了20分钟,就拿下27分5篮板2助攻的漂亮数据,林天出战21分钟,拿下13分13次助攻3次抢断,皮蓬也只打了22分钟,拿下11分5篮板4助攻的全面数据。
In addition, Cole, Kukoc, Hubble, and Longley all scored in double figures. Seven members of the Bulls team scored in double figures. It was a relaxing and enjoyable performance!
At the post-game press conference, Bickerstaff seemed so overwhelmed when faced with reporters' questions. After hesitating for a long time, he said with no confidence: "They are the defending champions. They've won four championships in the past six years, they've won 6 games two years in a row, they're very strong."
"We made a very adequate game plan before the game, and we also did a lot of evaluation and psychological construction on the difficulty of the game. We were even ready to return to the home court with a 0:2 deficit. But...but we..."
Seeing Bibi Kerstaff's hesitation on the stage, a reporter couldn't help it and directly interrupted: "But you still didn't expect that the game would be so difficult and that the gap in strength between you and them would be so big. ,Is it?"
Bickerstaff looked at the reporter, and the reporters in the audience also looked at Bickerstaff. At this time, the two sides fell into a wonderful silence and harmony.
Then, after almost half a minute, Bickerstaff did not wait for anyone to come to the rescue, nor did he wait for any steps to be taken. In desperation, he could only nod and said: "Yes, we still underestimated bull."
As soon as this statement came out, the reporters below were also in an uproar. Although the reporters asked the question with the mentality of watching the excitement and not being afraid of trouble, they really didn't expect that Bickerstaff actually admitted it directly. Coward.
Originally, they thought that for the sake of the team's fighting spirit and confidence in the next game, Bickerstaff had to hold his neck no matter what, insisting on saying that 'the game is not over yet', 'we haven't lost yet', 'see you in Washington' Such harsh words.
The results of it?
After just one game in the series, I was immediately intimidated. Were you so intimidated that you didn’t even dare to say harsh words?
Bickerstaff's direct confession also caused the well-informed reporters to fall into silence for a while. They had never seen this scene before!For a moment, these reporters didn’t even know how to ask questions.
The reporters looked at each other in confusion, which also illustrates the strength and terror of the Bulls.
The Bulls have become so powerful that they can not only wipe out the suspense of the entire series and the resistance of their opponents in one game, but they can also beat reporters until they don't know how to ask questions.
At least, the questions that reporters had prepared before, such as what to do in the next game, what do you think of the disastrous defeat, how to restore the decline, and whether you are confident in advancing, can no longer be asked.
Why ask?People are afraid of being fucked directly.
Bickerstaff's mentality is exactly the mentality of the entire Bullets team today. Their entire team is in a state of confusion. From the coach to the main players to the role players, everyone has lost the mood to fight.
Bickerstaff even canceled a practice scheduled between two away games in Chicago.
He felt that before he found a suitable way to defeat the Bulls, any training would only weaken the team's fighting spirit. Instead of forcing all the players to gather together for training, it would be better to let them have fun. Maybe you can find some new fighting spirit from alcohol and joy!
"They won't practice?" The Bulls players who were training in their own training hall all laughed after learning the news.
They really didn't expect that the Bullets team had such a tough name but such a soft mentality.
There really isn’t anyone who can fight!
"They won't practice anymore, and the venue can't be empty." Jordan chewed gum and said: "Let's go to their hotel to train! Practice right under their noses! A bunch of sissies, I want to train before the second game. , completely destroy all their fighting spirit!"
"Coach, what do you think?"
Jackson looked at a group of people who were eager to give it a try and wanted to stir up trouble. He smiled and said: "We can only do this in Chicago. If we don't do it elsewhere, we might suffer a loss."
Once Jackson said this, how could the Bulls' troublemakers be so polite?A group of people didn't even change their clothes. After returning to the locker room to get their belongings, they got on the team bus and headed towards the hotel where the Bullets were staying!
Even Rodman, who originally said he had a headache and missed today's training, after hearing that he could stir up trouble, didn't even think about it and drove directly to the hotel. There was a lot of fun to watch and he could stir up trouble.' Hua Da Chong' is never absent.
Since it is in Chicago, the Bulls have unlimited privileges. For example, normally, whether it is the playoffs or the regular season, the league and the hotel will never allow such naked provocations to occur, and will not allow a certain Players from one team go to the opponent's hotel to train.
Who knows what will happen when two groups of athletes full of muscles and full of passion come together?
But who told this to be Chicago?
When the hotel manager heard that the Bulls were coming to train, he didn't care whether the bullshit excuse like "our training facility is leaking today, so I want to use your training facility" was reliable, and he didn't care whether the sun was shining brightly in Chicago at the moment. The temperature was as high as 33 degrees, but without thinking, he opened the door and led the Bulls team into the hotel.
At the same time, the manager looked like a fucking old hermaphrodite. Not only did he personally take the Bulls players to the training ground, but he also assigned a dozen waiters to ask them to ask the Bullets if the training ground was still used today. .
If it's not used, it will be given to the Bulls.
As for such a simple matter, why do we need to send so many people at once?
Because there were about 30 people from the Bullets staying in the hotel this time!If the hotel hadn't been short of manpower, the manager would have even wanted to send 20 more people to knock on the door of each room to avoid accidentally missing a player or assistant coach's door.
Since we want to provoke and demonstrate, we must do everything we can!
Lin Tianna looked like he was sorry for meeting him so late. He put his arm around the manager's shoulders and said, "Brother, what do you call me? You have a bright future!"
"Billy! Just call me Billy! If you have any instructions, you can come to me at any time, anything!" Billy handed over his business card with a smile and said: "I am very professional!"
"I remember you! From now on, we will be friends!" Lin Tian patted Billy on the shoulder and put his business card away.
For a service staff who is so knowledgeable and knows how to get into trouble, Lin Tian feels that he will definitely need this guy in the future!
At this time, Billy's walkie-talkie suddenly rang, and Billy smiled and said: "Lin, Michael, the good news is that we knocked on the room doors of all the Bullet Team members, and everyone who was still in the hotel received our call. Notice, as for whether they will come down next, I will update you at any time."
"Our staff also said that someone seemed to be training in the training hall at the moment, but my people took a look and didn't recognize who that person was. I think he is most likely not from the Bullets!"
"Sensible!" Lin Tian patted Billy on the shoulder again.
He thinks this Billy is really good!
It's '[-] out of [-]' that this guy wasn't from the Bullet Team, so he was training him very cleverly!
At this point, he can train in this training hall that has been chartered by the Bullets for a long time. If he is not from the Bullets, who can he be?Did the old man downstairs take a stroll and sneak in here to pick up the children and play wild ball?
What a crap!
At this moment, if a dishonest person insists on asking the person who is training if he is a Bullets player, and then tells the Bulls that someone is training, then the Bulls drama will not be easy to sing. .
If the league pursues the Bulls' provocation on the Bullets' territory in the future, the Bulls will have no way to explain it.
But now, we, the Bulls, are going to a training facility without Bullets players!
Even if there is, it was an accidental encounter!
Yes, a chance encounter!
Lin Tian, who felt deeply that Billy was sensible, took out two Franklins from his pocket, stuffed them into Billy's pocket and said, "Go ahead and do your work first."
"You won't..." Billy frowned and looked at the more than 10 burly men. After all, he was a staff member and could pick a fight. If there was a conflict or even a fight on his territory, he would Also have to be unlucky.
"Don't worry, we are here for training, what else can we do to do bad things?" Jordan smiled and took out four Franklins from his pocket, then glanced at Lin Tian provocatively, and then said: "We just play ball!"
Billy, who had made a fortune in blood, could not say more. After nodding and bending, he gave everyone a business card and quickly left.
"Would you like to make a bet to see who is training in this gym?" Jordan's gambling instinct came back immediately. He looked at everyone on the team and said, "I bet $200, it's Chris Webber."
"Can Weber take the initiative to train at this time? With his noodle-like personality?" Rodman said disdainfully: "I bet 200, it's Howard."
"If Howard knows how to work overtime, I will cut off my head on the spot and play it as a ball for you!" Pippen said disdainfully: "He just comes to work. You will never see him touch a basketball outside of work. ! I bet this guy is sleeping right now! I bet 200 it’s Strickland!”
Then, Kerr, Longley, Kukoc and others placed bets one after another, placing their bets on several Bullets players, and all stated their reasons.
"I'll pay 200!" Lin Tian looked at everyone looking at him and said easily: "The people training inside are not any of the people you just mentioned! If you win, I will kill you all!"
"Do you know who is training there?" Jordan looked at Lin Tian, suspecting that Lin Tian had some inside information.
"Michael, Michael." Lin Tian spread his hands and said: "You don't know me very well. I never cheat when gambling! After all, I can kill you all if I don't cheat. If I cheat, will you still be alive? ? Give me half of your annual salary directly!"
"Okay!" Jordan's gambling nature was completely ignited by Lin Tian, completely forgetting his vow last year not to gamble with Lin Tian: "I will double it! If it weren't for any of us just mentioned, everyone here would The bet is all yours, and I will double it for you! But if one of us wins..."
"Same as you, I'll double the compensation to you!" Lin Tian took Jordan's bet without even thinking about it.
Jordan immediately became excited!The bets they placed just now included more than half of the Bullets' players!From Jordan's point of view, this is a game where the flying dragon rides on the face, and A is sure to win in the past!
If I can lose this, I will never bet even a dime with Lin Tian again!
This time, even if the bet was only a few thousand dollars, Jordan felt that it was finally time for him to be proud and proud and beat Lin Tian for once!
"Steve, go get Lin a cup of coffee and a cup of cappuccino!" Jordan was elated now, waiting to open the training door and beat Lin Tian for once: "Lin, can you win today?" Me? Can you kill me instantly? In this case, you can beat me, Jordan, today, and I will eat this basketball on the spot!"
Jordan was full of confidence. He pushed open the door of the training hall and heard the "bang bang bang" sound of hitting the ball from inside. He was waiting to see who from the Bullets was secretly practicing, and then he would do it again. A few words of ridicule to Lin Tian.
As the Bulls army arrived, the guy who was practicing looked back at the Bulls people... and was suddenly stunned.What's going on? There are so many people?Are they all from the Bulls?
He is just over 2 meters tall, with explosive muscles all over his body, a flat head, a silly look, and facial features that are not very smart, and Jordan was stunned for a moment.
No, brother, who are you?
Jordan didn't recognize who this person was at first, and turned back to look at his teammates.
He wanted to see... if anyone knew this person, and if anyone had bet that this guy was training in the training hall just now.
There was silence and confusion, and all the players on the Bulls team showed the same expressions and thoughts as Jordan.
No, brother, who are you?
Moreover, not only the players, but also Clemens and other assistant coaches, team doctors, team trainers and others who came with the team for fear that the players would cause trouble, were also confused.
do not know!
I don't know it at all!
It’s over, no one knows him, so it’s a crapshoot!No one knows him, how can anyone bet on this guy?
Thinking of this, Jordan moved his eyes to Lin Tian.
Then Lin Tian also shook his head: "Don't look at me, I don't know him either."
Upon hearing this, Jordan became energetic again: "Maybe this guy is not a player of the Bullets! Which player can practice extra without an assistant coach? If he is not a player of the Bullets, then it will be a draw this time !”
Jordan had the last hope left in his heart.
Even if we don't win a big victory, a tie is still a record-breaking one!If it’s a tie this time, I’ll beat him next time!Let's do it steadily, step by step!
Jordan's words were actually a bit shameless. When they made the bet just now, there was no such additional condition.
Lin Tian didn't care about this.
It's true that he didn't recognize who this guy was, but just looking at his strong muscles and standard basketball player figure, this guy is not a professional basketball player. I can't believe it!
Lin Tian is very sure that this guy is definitely a member of the Bullets. As for why no one knows him?
In fact, it is easy to understand: according to the rules, the upper limit of the number of players for each team in the regular season is 12+3.
In other words, the team can sign 15 players, but only 12 can play in each game. The other three players are the team's backup force when the team has injuries, suspensions or other accidents. , responsible for filling the vacancies in the team.
If you encounter unlucky situations, the three backup players of the team may only be responsible for training throughout the season. Let alone playing, they will not even have many opportunities to wear training clothes and sit on the bench. Most of the time, they wear suits and sit behind the bench.
Therefore, it is actually very normal for a team to have several players that no one knows, not even the video analysts and coaching staff of each team!
After all, they may not get any playing opportunities throughout the season.
Here Jordan swaggered towards the unknown player who was alone, chatted with him for a few words, and then walked back dejectedly.
"FUXX! This bastard is actually a player of the Bullets, but he didn't enter the active list for the playoffs. Damn it! He didn't even enter the active list, and he can't even play on the court. He's doing nothing here! He's causing me to lose money! Come over here and give Lin the money. Calculate how much it is. I don’t have enough cash. I’ll give it to you before the game tomorrow!”
The Bulls players immediately took out their money, counting and counting. Within 2 minutes, they handed Lin Tian a thick stack of American knives. Lin Tian glanced at it and saw that it was almost 3000 US dollars. Including Jordan's double, just by talking, another $6000 will be accounted for!
This kind of gambling makes money much faster than playing golf!
However, when Lin Tian looked at the guy who had turned his head and started training again, he suddenly felt a little familiar.
Especially looking at his clumsy footsteps, poor finishing at the basket and poor shooting posture, Lin Tian felt more and more familiar the more he looked at it.
"What are you looking at?" Rodman came over, followed Lin Tian and took a look at the player's training screen. He immediately shook his head and said: "This is too bad. I'm afraid this offensive level is not as good as mine." ! It’s all for nothing. He’s so bad during training. No wonder he can’t be on the team’s active list.”
Less offensive than you?A body full of tendons?
Lin Tian frowned and suddenly remembered who this was!
The future famous 'Big Ben' Ben Wallace!
A guy who was not selected in the 1996 draft, and then signed with the Bullets for a minimum salary of one year as an undrafted player, and finally managed to play in the NBA.
However, the current Wallace has not yet shown his ability to be four-time Defensive Player of the Year, five-time All-Defensive First Team, and five-time All-NBA Team selection in the future. He has only played one game throughout the season. In 1 games, the average playing time was only 5 minutes, and he averaged only 34 point and 5.8 rebound per game. A super second-hand player!
There are countless players of this level inside and outside the league, but no one knows him. That is only human nature. After all, no one will waste energy on a player who can barely play.
Moreover, you can't blame Lin Tian for not recognizing this guy at first.
Even if you don’t have your signature afro, and you don’t even wear a jersey with your name on it, who can recognize you?
What's more, the current Wallace has none of the domineering and fierceness that he will have in the future. Instead, he looks stupid. Who can compare him with the league's first blue-collar man who will fight against O'Neal and Duncan in the finals? Connect together!
However, it is in line with his character for this guy to come out and practice alone when the whole team is not training.
If it weren't for this determination to practice hard, Wallace would never have become the toughest and most terrifying defensive master in the league with his height!
After all, this guy claims to be 206 centimeters tall, but Lin Tian thinks that is the height after adding at least 5 centimeters of afro. Now with this flat head, he is almost as tall as Jordan when he was standing next to him just now!
This guy's real height is most likely no more than 2 meters!
"What are you looking at, Lin? We are fighting in groups, and you won't come?" Rodman asked Lin Tian when he saw that he was still watching Wallace practice alone.
"I'm looking to see which of you two is taller."
"Of course it's me." Rodman glanced at Wallace and said impatiently: "I'm 206 centimeters tall. This kid is about the same height as Michael. He's 2 meters at most! I'm a head taller than him!"
"Then do you dare to stand with him and compare heights?" Lin Tian looked at Rodman, who was only 7-8 centimeters taller than him, and couldn't help but complain.
This 'flower bug' really doesn't have any shame at all. Why is he just lying here with his eyes open?
"Height is nothing, whether it's 198 or 206. The important thing is that the rebound can always fall in my hands. What's the use of those numbers? When you are 50 years old, won't you shrink? When you are 80 years old, you won't be buried. In the soil? Apart from using more wood for the coffin, what's the use of those few centimeters in height?"
"Superficial! Too superficial! Lin, you disappoint me so much!"
After Rodman finished speaking, he ran away quickly without even looking at Lin Tian.
Good guy!
Lin Tian looked at Rodman's shameless back and wanted to give him a thumbs up.
In order to conceal his height, how could such philosophical words come out of his mouth?
Really, no shame at all!
Next, the Bulls were divided into 5 teams and played 4V4 for half of the game.
However, after barely playing a few rounds, a group of people became a bit boring.
They are here to stir up trouble, but all members of the Bullet Team are really weak, and no one is willing to take the initiative!
Just a role player among role players, who is not even qualified to guard the water dispenser. He can only sit behind the water dispenser and be guarded by the water dispenser to practice there. The ridicule is meaningless.
After fighting for a while, Jordan, who found it boring, couldn't hold it in anymore. He walked up to Wallace and said, "Boy, do you dare to bullfight?"
"Anything is fine." Wallace looked at Jordan, and he was not afraid at all!
There is no change in his expression. At least it seems that he is not afraid of Jordan at all!
"Come on! Score 21 points first! I'll let you serve first!"
After Jordan finished speaking, he walked to the free throw line and passed the ball to Wallace.
The Bulls players also gathered over immediately. They wanted to see how this matchup would turn out.
Although they didn't know Wallace, seeing this guy accept Jordan's challenge without hesitation, and then getting ready to serve with a ferocious look on his face, everyone felt in their hearts: This guy must be hard to mess with!
Everyone has a little bit of expectation now!After all, there is a guy in the Bulls who was once unknown, but is not afraid of Jordan at all, Lin Tian!
Although Lin Tian played one-on-one with Jordan for two full years and was beaten for two years, his progress was also very obvious. At the same time, the strength he showed in training and bullfighting has long made Bulls players Convinced!
Could this guy with a flat head be the second Lin Tian?
"Snapped!"
Before the Bulls players' imagination was over, Wallace lost the ball.
It wasn't broken by Jordan.
This guy had just blocked Jordan with his back, trying to hit it directly from the top of the arc, but he used too much force while dribbling, and the basketball hit his foot and went out of bounds.
And then...
This was Wallace's only offensive opportunity in the first round of singles.
21: 0!
The food is outrageous.
Even Jordan was a little embarrassed. He felt that this guy had no resistance at all.
"Do you dare to play another game? This time I let you, let's change the serve!" Jordan, who had not tortured enough, thought for a while and brought up a one-on-one mode again. He was thinking that maybe this guy is not good at defense, and even more so. He is good at attacking, but he failed in the first attack because he was just too nervous?
then……
21: 0!
Even if his hair was changed, Wallace didn't show any resistance. He was like a melon and a vegetable being chopped by Jordan, and he got another 21:0!
By this time, the Bulls players were a little bit disappointed.
At this level, after eating a few dishes, do you dare to accept Jordan's one-on-one challenge?
Jordan was so bored that he stopped talking rubbish...
How to say this feeling?
You wouldn't be embarrassed to talk trash when you were dueling with elementary school students, right?
"It's a pity that I'm full of tendons." Rodman shook his head, stood up and started packing his things. He felt that he had no fun today and was too lazy to waste any more time.
"Dennis, I think he has potential." Lin Tian suddenly stopped Rodman and said, "He can follow the same path as you! If you are willing to give him special training, maybe he can become the second Rodman in the league." Where’s Deman?”
"The second Rodman?" Rodman turned around, glanced at Wallace, and then shook his head decisively: "I'm in good shape. Forget about special training. If I have the time, I can sleep more in Hollywood." How good is your girl? What a waste of time with him. Let’s go. See you in the game tomorrow.”
Rodman waved his hand, turned around and left.
As Rodman left, other members of the Bulls team also began to pack their things, and then left one by one.
When Wennington finally packed up his things, he looked at Lin Tiandao and said, "Lin, aren't you leaving? We came by bus."
"You guys go, I want to play for a while longer." Lin Tian waved his hand, he had an idea in his mind.
"Then can you tell me how you know that among the Bullets training here, there are absolutely none of the people we just mentioned?" Wennington rolled his eyes and still raised a question.
"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Lin Tian shrugged.
"Impossible, I know you better than Lin. If you weren't sure, you wouldn't bet with them." Wennington spread his hands to show you to stop talking nonsense.
"Okay, okay." Lin Tian sighed and said: "Remember that hotel manager Billy? He is obviously a senior NBA fan. He knows us very well, so there is a high probability that he also knows the Bullets players very well! Then The people he sent to the stadium to see if anyone from the Bullets was training were most likely fans! In other words, for hotel employees, fans must be rushing to do this kind of job that allows them to go to the arena and have close contact with NBA players. Dry!"
"Then when this person sees someone training, he will probably say: It's Webb, Howard, Strickland or someone else training, but we all heard the voice on the intercom, and he didn't say that explain."
"That means that there is a high probability that he does not know the player who is training, so the answer is obvious. Either the person training is not a Bullets player, or he is a sidekick that no one knows."
"Of course, it's possible that I was completely wrong. For example, Billy only knew people from the Bulls. He was just for work and didn't like basketball. For example, the person he sent was a very honest guy who didn't do anything at all. Anything superfluous; maybe he just asked someone to go to the arena and see if anyone was there."
"But I think it's worth a gamble. My chances of winning are quite high, aren't they?"
Lin Tian didn't know whether Wennington understood his analysis, but Wennington did nodded and left a sentence: "Michael is right, unless you have too much money and no place to throw it, don't do it anyway." You gamble!"
Then, he hurriedly left the arena.
Lin Tian ignored Wennington who left, but continued to stare at Wallace who was practicing the most basic turning hook shot under the basket, but his shooting percentage was impossible to watch.
"You shouldn't practice this. Didn't you realize that you have no offensive talent at all?" Lin Tian watched as Wallace once again took out a lame back-up step, and then made a fierce move into the air that no one could deceive. After feinting and then turning around and striking with a hook, he finally couldn't bear it any longer.
"You don't need to take care of it." Wallace glanced at Lin Tian, said nothing, and continued to practice his back-up skills.
"You signed a one-year contract with the Bullets, right? With your current level, why do you think they should renew your contract next season? Why do you think you can find another job in the NBA and survive? Or, you Is he just a guy who is just waiting to die and just wants to look at the present?"
"With your body, you can cheat a year's salary out of one year. When you can't cheat anymore, you can retire and find a high school or college coach. Is that what you think?"
"I'm not the kind of person who just waits to die!" Wallace was obviously irritated by Lin Tian. He glared at Lin Tian and said: "I work harder than everyone on our team! I come to every training. The earliest one, the last one to leave! I...I just need a chance!"
"A chance for you to play and then use such ridiculous steps on the court to prove that you are really not good?" Lin Tian would not give Wallace face and continued to taunt him.
"What on earth do you mean!" Wallace looked at Lin Tian and said angrily: "You are just here to attack me and tell me that I can't play in the NBA and ask me to change my job quickly? Is that so? I tell you, with me like this Countless people have said this! But I won’t give up! I know I can play the game well!”
