NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 195 The collapsed Jordan and the fattened Rose!
"Michael Jordan has mood swings and drops permanent skills: First Defense LV1 (0/3000)!"

“第一防守LV1：增加宿主单防能力10%、抢断能力10%、协防能力10%、盖帽能力5%、护筐能力5%！比赛最后5分钟，若宿主进入兴奋或暴怒状态，提升效果在当前基础上额外增加30%！”

Bullshit!
Lin Tian looked at this series of improvements and felt bursts of satisfaction!It’s a shame that I started planning in December, from Miller’s interview to asking Su Qun to help canvass votes for myself and Miller, it took two full months!

Worth it!It’s all worth it!
This skill really deserves its name 'First Defense'!Not only does the improvement cover almost all aspects of the defensive end, it is a comprehensive and powerful defensive skill, and it also has an additional critical moment BUFF!

With this BUFF, if Lin Tian is still excited until the end of the game, the 10% bonus will become 13%, and those abilities that have only been improved by 5% can also be increased to an additional 6.5%!

Magic skills, absolute magic skills!

This skill can almost make up for Lin Tian's current shortcomings on the defensive end.

After the last promotion, Lin Tian had 1291 experience points left, and then in the past two months of training and competition, he got another 2230 experience points from different players.

Well, 60% of it comes from Jordan, 20% comes from the lovely Iverson, and the remaining 20% ​​comes from others and so on!

In other words, Lin Tian now has 3521 points of experience, and without hesitation, he directly promoted this 'first defense' to LV2!

“第一防守LV2(0/6000)：增加宿主单防能力13%、抢断能力13%、协防能力13%、盖帽能力7%、护筐能力7%！比赛最后5分钟，若宿主进入兴奋或暴怒状态，提升效果在当前基础上额外增加33%！”

Too strong to have any friends!
In addition, Lin Tian's own skill 'Pick-and-roll shooting', after Lin Tian's long hard training and accumulation, finally successfully broke through the barrier and reached the LV4 level.

“挡拆投篮LV4(0/8000)：宿主挡拆后运球2次以内的中距离投篮命中率提升10%。”

Well, there is still improvement!Although it is not worth mentioning compared to the skills displayed by these basketball giants, in the end, this is his own incompetent son.

Different, different.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Tian also opened his system panel for the first time, and had to take a closer look at the improvements!

It's very comfortable!

Not only did his defensive overall rating improve to B+, which means that Lin Tian officially has an above-average defensive level in the league, but several of Lin Tian's defensive abilities that are currently holding him back are also things that inside players such as blocking shots, protecting the basket, and blocking positions should be more controlled. ability.

If we only look at the abilities of outside players, Lin Tian has an A and an S in individual defense and steals!On average, that's S-!

Well, if you only compare defense with outside players, especially players at the No. 1 position, Lin Tian is definitely among the top five or even top three No. [-] positions in the league. The No. [-] positions in the entire league are Payton and Kidd. A guy who started his career on defense can firmly beat Lin Tian in terms of defensive ability!
Stockton?That guy's defense has never relied on skills or physical strength, but on his heart and ruthlessness.

But Lin Tian knows that ranking in the top three is of little use, otherwise his overall defensive rating will not be just a B+.

As we all know, in terms of influence on the defensive end and changes to the team's entire defensive system, an elite No. 1 defender is not as good as an average center!
Because no matter how fierce you are at guarding No. 1, all you can change is the matchup situation of your own group. After all, you are too short!

A player who is about 190 centimeters tall and can stretch to less than 2 meters is not as intimidating on the court as those inside behemoths who are 210 centimeters or even 220 centimeters tall. Those guys can really change a team's defense. System, someone who can force opponents away from the basket!

This is why, although there are endless outside players who can defend, there are only two who can win the best defensive player as a defender in the entire history of the league: Payton and Jordan.

The rest, whether it is Kidd and Payton now, or Kobe and Bowen in the future, have not been able to get this award.

As for the other two monsters, Artest and Leonard, these two are all-round defenders. They can defend from 1 to 4, and can even defend the monster at the 5th position. They are strong and physically strong. The height and strength of both of them are at the inside level!
But in any case, under the current situation, Lin Tian feels that it is enough. At least it is enough for him to not suffer a disadvantage when facing most players in positions 1-2 in the league, and he can even let his opponents feel that they are locked. Terrible feeling of death.

Especially in the playoffs, Lin Tian is now confident that no matter which No. 1 position in the league he faces, he will be able to perform at a crushing level!

The two ends of the offense and defense are crushed together!
I just don’t know what the situation is like in Jordan’s family now.

The two young Jordans should not be dealt with too badly.

Well, next time I take little Marcus to Uncle Pippen's family dinner and let him sit with Aunt Larsa. As for Jeffrey...

Well, give him some more basketballs and sneakers.

……

On the third day after playing against the Bulls, Lin Tian received a call from the league.

"Lin, think about it and participate in the three-point and dunk contests?" This year, it was another call from Stern himself!

"David, it's really boring for you to stalk me like this. I don't like participating in those, it's so boring." Lin Tian said boringly: "I don't like these."

"There has to be a condition. You make a condition. As long as you participate, we can talk about anything! On the other side of the ocean, there are hundreds of millions of fans waiting to see you perform. I hope you can kill everyone in individual competitions!" As the president of the league, his main focus is to be flexible and flexible!
As long as I get enough ratings and attention, I can do any pose!
"Then you can stop holding the slam dunk contest and just say that you can't find the right person to participate. In that case, I will participate next year."

"Don't be ridiculous, Lin. This year's All-Star Game is being held in New York! This is New York. If you win the championship this year, do you know how much attention and benefits you can get for yourself? I won't harm you, just participate. !”

Stern is very persuasive, like a human trafficker who coaxes children to follow him.

"David, let's not dwell on this issue. I'm not interested, so don't push me. In this way, I will recommend you a few people who are suitable for participating in individual competitions: Miller can shoot 3-pointers, and Michael can Go dunk.”

"Will you help me find the two of them to compete?" Stern asked angrily.

"Are you kidding? David, I can't even convince myself, so I help you convince them? Bye, we have to train!" After Lin Tian finished speaking, he hung up the phone without giving any thought to this real alliance. King's face.

However, after hanging up the phone, Lin Tian suddenly felt something was wrong.

Something seems to be wrong, where is it?

……

In the next few days, the league first announced the list of Eastern and Western All-Star substitutes for this season.

The Lakers became the biggest winner in the Western Conference. Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones were all selected. Together with the starting Kobe Bryant and O'Neal, the Lakers have four All-Stars, the most this year!
In addition, David Robinson of the Spurs, Karl Malone of the Jazz, Richmond of the Warriors, Vin Baker of the SuperSonics, and Jason Kidd of the Suns were also successfully selected for this year's All-Stars. , formed the Western Team.

On the Eastern side, Bulls double stars Jordan and Pippen were selected as All-Star substitutes. In addition, Rice of the Hornets, Hardaway of the Magic, Jason Williams of the Nets, Hardaway of the Heat, and Celtics Antoine Walker of the National Team was selected together.

Then, there is the All-Star Rookie Challenge roster and the All-Star 97-Point Contest roster composed of 3 rookies!
Gone.

After seeing this list, Lin Tian finally understood what was wrong.

Even in the year he remembers, there was no All-Star Dunk Contest this year!
Some people say that last year's dunks were too boring and the fans were lethargic, so this edition was canceled. Some said that the famous dunk players were unwilling to participate, and the young players who wanted to participate were too poor, so Stern simply announced The slam dunk contest is suspended.

Last year's dunk king, Kobe Bryant, also won titles such as 'the most famous dunk king in history' and 'the dunk king who brought down the slam dunk contest'.

If nothing changes, the league will have to wait until two years later, until the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, to find their savior.

The 'demigod' Vince Carter was born out of nowhere!
Following Jordan and Wilkins, this super genius once again takes the slam dunk contest to the top!
However, now...

This slam dunk contest was actually canceled because of me?

What's worse is that Lin Tian is 100% sure that regardless of whether this slam dunk contest was canceled because of him or not, with Stern's face, the old man will definitely say that it was canceled specifically because of him and to wait for him!
This guy is as dirty-hearted as he is!
Sure enough, less than 5 minutes after Lin Tian saw the list, Stern's phone call came over impatiently: "Lin, have you seen the list? This year, we canceled the dunk contest for you! Can you compete next year? You can’t let me down!”

"You will be punished by God if you deceive a poor old man!"

"Come on David, we all know you are not a bad old man, and we also know that the dunk contest was not canceled because of me." Lin Tian rolled his eyes.

"No, it was canceled because of you!" Stern insisted on the other end of the phone. He certainly didn't cancel the slam dunk contest because of Lin Tiancai.

It's just that he and his officials have made 20 phone calls in the past few days, but all the players he really wanted to participate in the competition have refused. The few non-essential players are more excited than the other and want to come. Participate.

After thinking about it, Stern decided to cancel it this year!
Hold it in for a year, or if it doesn’t work, hold it in for two years!

Stern believes that there will always be those dunkers who can't hold it back and want to compete one day!

At that time, it will be the day when the slam dunk contest will return to its peak!
Another member of the Pacers who had a different mood after seeing the list of All-Star reserves was Rose.

This guy, who had become much more honest since Chicago was threatened by Lin Tian and others, originally didn't want to, let alone dare to continue to stir up trouble.

God Lin!Who in the right mind would dare to mess with him now, in order to let Lin Tian pay for some medical expenses?
But when he saw the All-Star bench, especially when Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones of the Lakers were selected, he felt unhappy.

Why?

Crazy Fan not only missed more than 10 games this season, but averaged only 13+6 per game. Jones played all the games, but only averaged 16+3+3. Why can they score and I can't?

I, Jaylen Rose, am averaging 17 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game so far this season, which is just enough to beat you, Crazy Fan!
And if you exclude the more than a month when Lin was away, Rose's statistics could be improved to 19 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists!

The data is obviously better, but why can't he make it to the All-Stars?

Just because our team has three All-Star starters?

My performance is no worse than Miller and Barkley!They can start, but I don’t even have a substitute?
Ross became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and his heart, which had been calmed down, became restless again.

Matt, sorry!
Rose's dissatisfaction was directly reflected in this day's training. During training, he was very aggressive, or in other words, too aggressive. He played against Best and Dumas. It's excruciating pain.

It was really painful in the physical sense. This guy's elbows and knees flew together and he hit these two guys several times.

Dumas has always had a good temper, while Best had a bad temper, but they didn't have the status to make a fuss, so they both tolerated it.

After the training, Rose was still angry and felt very aggrieved. He sat there wiping his sweat with a towel and angrily asked rookie Crosier to get him some water.

Judging from his posture, he obviously regarded himself as the boss of the team.

When everyone returned to the locker room after their break, Rose walked quickly and kicked over the stool under Miller's locker, spilling the contents on the floor.

"Reggie, I'm sorry, I didn't see it." Ross turned around and looked at Miller while apologizing, but he had no intention of bending down to pick things up.

Miller's face, which was still full of smiles just now, suddenly fell down. He stared at Rose coldly. He was not stupid, so how could he not see that Rose was deliberately looking for trouble?
Obviously, Miller is having a very fierce battle in his heart right now!

A little red man told Miller: Go beat this bastard to death and let him know who is the king of Indiana.

Another little black man told Miller: Xiaohong is right!You are the king of Indiana, there is no need to embarrass yourself like this, it’s so frustrating!
After the red and black villains gradually merged and turned into a color that Miller hated very much, Miller clenched his fists. He didn't want to endure it anymore.

"Tell me again, what did you just say?" Miller took two steps forward, just waiting to get in front of Ross, he was about to punch directly.

"Reggie, why did your clothes fall all over the floor?" Lin Tian suddenly walked out from the crowd. He reached out and patted Miller on the shoulder, then bent down to help him pick up everything and put it away. He fell into Miller's arms and said, "Go take a bath while there is no one in the shower room."

Miller looked at Lin Tian and Rose, and finally turned around and walked into the shower without saying a word.

Then, Lin Tian pulled Rose and walked all the way to a corner of the locker room. When he turned around and found that everyone was some distance away from them, he started to speak.

"You." Lin Tian turned to look at Rose and said: "I know why you are upset. I heard that Pippen was injured again. He is likely to miss the All-Star Game. I will help you in the next few games. Added to the All-Star lineup."

"This way, you can always play quietly."

"Lin, that's not what I meant. I really didn't mean it." Ross spread his hands and was about to explain again, but Lin Tian reached out and interrupted him.

"I don't want to listen to those explanations that are just nonsense at first glance. If you admit it frankly, I think more highly of you. I understand your current mood very well. You want them all in contract renewal negotiations, the right to speak in the team, data, and honors. Right? But you can't get it all in a way that destroys the chemistry of the team." "There are only two games until the All-Star break, and I'll keep you satisfied, but what about you?"

"I will definitely play well. I swear, there will never be any problems again. I will go and solemnly apologize to Reggie." Rose looked at Lin Tian and swore without hesitation.

In his opinion, Lin Tian was completely on his side!
Lin Tian was simply expressing his support for him!

This situation is completely different from the last time!
Rose's poor little head turned rapidly, thinking about why Lin Tian's attitudes were so different between the two times.

Last time I almost beat myself up, but this time I was obviously on my side. Why?

Because the last time I spoke ill of someone behind their back, Lin didn't like it. This time, I spoke up to him head-on. Does Lin think I'm jealous?
Or is it because after the past few days, Lin feels that I am more valuable, stronger than Miller, and more suitable to be his first partner?

Or maybe it's because Lin is unhappy with these old dogs and has long wanted to form a younger lineup, so he actually wants to have a good relationship with young people?

Or is it because of all the above reasons combined?
Rose thought of this and looked at Lin Tian with a happy and silly smile.

Lin Tian patted Rose on the shoulder, turned around and left the locker room.

If Ross told Lin Tian what he had just thought, Lin Tian would tell him: What are you thinking about?When it comes to finding a new partner, I can't stand a wimp like you.

How many more reasons?The reason why Lin Tian stopped Reggie from beating Rose, including the reason why he wanted to help him enter the All-Star game at the buzzer in the last few days, was actually only one, and it was very simple.

Fatten it up and then sell it!
"Lin, this is not your style. I thought you would press his head and rub it on the floor, but I heard that you want to help him enter the All-Star Game?"

In Bird's office, he looked at Lin Tian, ​​very curious about what Lin Tian was thinking.

"What do you mean you heard? Isn't that what I just told you?"

Lin Tian rolled his eyes, despising Bird's style of showing off on the spot and pretending to be mysterious.

"It would be too easy to beat him now. As long as I or Reggie take action, this matter will inevitably spread throughout the league. By then, he will be labeled as a locker room bomb and a team cancer, so no matter what he does, No matter how good or beautiful the data is, it can’t be sold at a high price!”

"I'm going to fatten him up! I'm going to make him an All-Star and let his statistics explode. Then, it's up to you, Larry!"

"Insidious enough!" Bird said with a thumbs up: "How about it, are there any favorite candidates? You want me to trade him to the team?"

"A young swingman with good physical fitness, capable of defense and fast break. It would be better if he is low-key and humble." Lin Tian touched his chin and said: "I think Kobe and Grant Hill are both good."

"You'd better get out now, or I'll blow your head off with a gun!" Bird said angrily: "Why don't you want O'Neal or Duncan? Why don't you dream more thoroughly?"

"Because I don't want to embarrass you, Larry. I know you can't handle those two guys, so I lowered the difficulty for you. I guess that's good for you!" Lin Tian stood up with a smile, and then quickly walked towards the door: "Anyway, the situation is This is the situation, you have to figure it out yourself!"

……

As Lin Tian said, before the start of the All-Star Game, the Pacers still have the last two games to play, and the opponents are not strong, or they are all weak chickens and weaklings: they went to Canada away from home, and played against Canada's two-vegetable rivals. Dragon and grizzly bear.

In the first game against the Raptors, although the Raptors now have young talents such as Camby, Billups and McGrady, they just traded away the team's core Stoudemire at the beginning of this month, and now they don't even have an orthodox leader. No, let alone any tactical system at all.

Facing such a Raptors that was determined to defeat the team, the Pacers naturally played smoothly and easily defeated the enemy.

And with Lin Tian deliberately feeding the ball and his own offensive tendency skyrocketing, Rose is even more capable of shooting inside and outside!

He played 39 minutes in the game, making 22 of 14 shots, 3 of 4 2-pointers, 13 of 11 free throws, and scored 41 points, 7 rebounds and 2 steals. Today's game is enough for Rose to be included in the list. The biggest missing piece of players who failed to make it to the All-Star Game.

In this game, the Pacers had no suspense. They easily defeated the Raptors with a 113-point advantage, 89:24, and won a victory!
Then the next day, the team went to Vancouver for the second away game of back-to-back games.

Normally, this kind of back-to-back away games is a huge test for any team. Lack of physical strength, energy, fatigue from the journey, and severe lack of physical strength caused by poor rest will make it easy for many teams to fail here. Lose in a game.

But first of all, the Pacers are facing the Grizzlies, the league's top weak team today, and secondly, Rose is now in a state of high fighting spirit. Not to mention a back-to-back, and another back-to-back, he can be full of energy and Fight with all your strength!
This night, Rose once again played a devastating performance. He played 40 minutes in the game and made 28 of 13 shots, 3 of 3 3-pointers, and 15 of 11 free throws. He scored 40 points for the second consecutive night. He also recorded 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

He completed back-to-back consecutive 40+ achievements!This is an achievement that only the top scorers in the league can achieve. Looking at the entire history of the league, those who can achieve this achievement are all the top scorers and superstars in the league!
Perhaps the only controversial thing is that the Pacers already had a 24-point advantage in the first three quarters of this game, and Rose also scored 34 points in the first three quarters.

But in the fourth quarter, when the Grizzlies had replaced all starters and main players, Rose was still unwilling to stop. He insisted on trying to score more than 40 points.

But maybe it was a lack of physical strength, maybe the Grizzlies' desperate defense didn't want him to score 40 points, or maybe Lin Tian went to rest early. In short, Rose played a full 9 minutes in the fourth quarter. In total, he made 6 of 1 shots and only 8 of 4 free throws. It can be said that he beat his brains out before finally scoring 40 points.

Then, Rose rested contentedly, and sat directly next to Lin Tian openly: "Lin, I think our combination can definitely sweep the league and become the most terrifying duo in the league! What do you think of the name LJ combination? How about it?"

"Or call it an RL combination? I think we can definitely become the best backcourt combination in the NBA! We can become a perimeter duo that is not inferior to Jordan Pippen! I feel like I can do it every night. What I did these two days I’ve arrived! I’m full of confidence and this feeling is really great!”

Rose said enthusiastically, and then paused when he said this, glanced at Lin Tian, ​​and said tentatively: "It is much more comfortable for us young people to play together than with those old guys!"

"Keep working hard! I just received the news that Pippen will definitely not attend the All-Star Game. These 40 points in these two games will definitely allow you to replace Pippen and enter the All-Star Game!" Lin Tian smiled and did not answer Rose. , but talked about other things.

But Lin Tian's answer made Rose's eyes light up!
There is a door!

There is definitely a door!

Lin and I are on the same side!
He also doesn't like playing with old guys like Miller and Barkley who can't run.

It seems that from now on, his position in the team will definitely become more stable!
A new era Pippen?

Tsk tsk tsk, this name sounds really good!

Rose was completely swollen at this moment!
After the game, he attended tonight's press conference on behalf of everyone.

"Jaylen, how does it feel to score 40 points in two consecutive games?"

"Awesome! Seriously awesome! I always knew I could do this, and I always believed that I was a player at this level! I have always been looked down upon and looked down upon."

"So Jaylen, we have all received the news that Scottie Pippen will miss this year's All-Star Game. Do you think you can enter as a substitute?"

"Besides me, I don't know who else is more qualified! Compared with statistics and record, I am no worse than anyone in the Eastern Conference! I even think that I should enter the All-Stars as a starter!"

Outside the press conference, Lin Tian and Bird listened to Rose's talk. Bird couldn't help shaking his head and said: "Scoring 40 points against the two weakest teams in the league will make this guy swell." Is this so? He is simply constantly testing our bottom line."

"He feels that he should enter the All-Stars as a starter. The implication is that Reggie shouldn't enter."

Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders and said to Bird: "So, if we want to trade him, we must hurry up, otherwise we won't be able to sell him at a high price when his cancerous nature is exposed."

"Don't worry, I'm already taking care of this matter, and I've contacted several teams privately, but I don't want to be exposed, so I've only contacted a few teams that I have the best relationship with in the past few days. The team already has some clues.”

"But you don't have to worry about Lin, he won't stay with the team until after the trade deadline. You only have to tolerate him for 10 more days at most!"

Yes, up to 10 days!

After playing this game, Lin Tian and Miller are not planning to return to Indiana. Instead, they will stay in Vancouver for one night and then go directly to New York to prepare for this year's All-Star Weekend.

Then, five days after the end of the 4-day All-Star Weekend, it will be the trade deadline of this season. It’s full of money. Today, it happens to be 5 days!
Regardless of whether Rose can be substituted into the All-Stars or not, now is indeed the time when he is most valuable and easiest to sell. There is only one reason why Bird is still keeping Rose's transaction secret: he wants him to feel at ease. Play the remaining 10 days well and don't expose your true nature.

Also, Bird doesn't want to be underpriced. If such an All-Star striker is thought to be in a hurry to sell because of a problem in the Pacers' locker room, it will greatly affect Rose's price!
Therefore, Bird will not reveal his intention to trade Rose until the trade deadline!

It's not yet time.

Here Rose triumphantly ended the press conference that was almost a one-man show by himself. He didn't even think about why Bird and Lin Tian didn't come to participate, but swaggered happily all the way to the locker room.

In his mind, he is already a sure thing about becoming an All-Star and is just waiting for the official announcement!

The timing of his 40+ games in these two games was really good. The Pacers were already at the center of the topic and the whirlpool of public opinion. Topics about Lin Tian, ​​Miller and Jordan have been hotly discussed.

Rose's sudden appearance of 40 points in two games at this time will not only greatly increase his impression points in everyone's mind, but will also definitely make Stern remember his name.

Just as Lin Tian and Bird were chatting and returning to the locker room, Lin Tian's phone rang again. He glanced at it and answered it directly: "What's the matter, my dear Mr. President? You haven't been there yet." Just give up on me participating in the three-point contest."

"No, Lin, I'm just calling you in advance to congratulate you." Stern's always smiling voice came, full of contagion: "You will soon have the No. 4 All-Star teammate. I decided to let Jalen Rose replace Pippen and become the most All-Star in the Eastern Conference this year."

"If you turn on the TV now, maybe you can see me announcing this? And don't forget what we have agreed to do next year."

"Of course, no problem! I remember it. I will definitely participate next year." Lin Tian smiled and hung up the phone, thinking to himself: You should first have an All-Star next year! The 98-99 season was, in a sense, an epic season in NBA history.

The first lockout in league history!
Looking at Stern's current state, he has never thought about the possibility of the league being suspended next season, right?

But...it has nothing to do with me, Mr. Lin.

The contract has been signed. No matter how the game is suspended or the rules are changed, the contract that has been signed will not change.

For Lin Tian, ​​this is an extra few months of vacation.

The Alliance will definitely come back anyway, so he doesn't want to worry about it. When the time comes, he will take the opportunity to travel around the world, go to Northern Europe, South America, the Arctic... these places to take a good look at the wonders of nature, that is what he wants to do. !

Of course, it would be even more perfect if you could experience the different girls and styles of girls in each place!
A few minutes later, Lin Tian and Bird pushed open the door to the locker room and saw Rose celebrating exaggeratedly in the locker room. He got a bottle of champagne from nowhere and sprayed it everywhere. , and kept making strange screams of excitement from his mouth.

The only pity is that except for the newcomer Crosier, the rest of the people are obviously not in the mood to celebrate with him. Ben even went directly to Lin Tian after Lin Tian came in and said: "Jaylen is getting more and more popular recently. He's getting louder and louder, do you need me to beat him up to calm him down?"

"If you want to beat someone up, I will do it myself." Lin Tian patted this little guy on the shoulder, walked to his locker and sat down.

"Lin! Hehe, I entered the All-Stars!" Rose saw Lin Tian coming, and put away the champagne that was spraying everywhere. He sat next to him excitedly and said, "You know I just entered the locker room. , how happy you were when you happened to see Stern on TV announcing this?"

"Of course, of course, I'm happy for you too." Lin Tian said with a smile: "I will pass a few more balls to you then!"

"Do you think it's possible for me to become the All-Star MVP?" Rose's dream is to do better and bigger!

"I don't think it's possible." Lin Tian said bluntly: "In other words, we don't have a chance."

"This year's head coach is Phil Jackson. He has always been very indulgent towards Jordan, so this year there is a high probability that he will let the angry Jordan play for a long time, shoot a lot of shots, and then let Jordan win another All-Star MVP! "

"Otherwise, how do you think Michael would vent his anger? Being squeezed out of the starting lineup by Reggie and I is definitely one of the biggest humiliations of Michael's career. He will definitely take revenge."

"Damn Reggie again!" After hearing Lin Tian's analysis, Ross lowered his head and muttered. This guy's resentment towards Miller was becoming less and less concealed.

If you don’t want to cover it up, don’t cover it up.

Anyway, there are only 10 days left!Lin Tian still has great trust in Bird's ability.

I just don’t know who he can bring to the team?
Last year's rookie Kittles?Or Tracy McGrady of the Raptors?These two are both high-quality swingmen who are good at offense and defense, tall, young and strong.

Or maybe Bird will come directly to Boston to find first-line stars who are truly All-Stars?For example, Richmond or Blaylock have good statistics, but the team's performance is average?

Or make a truly super deal that shocks the league and bring in a real superstar, such as...Grant Hill?Or maybe Kobe?

Of course, Michael can make do...
