NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

After swearing at Kobe, the referee hurried over.

just?

The referee just didn't react! Who would have thought that Jordan and Kobe would fight and do it as soon as they said they would! This is the All-Star Game!

These two are no longer fools. They were sitting on the judges' panel of the dunk contest chatting and laughing last night, but they almost got into a fight today?
Who would have thought!
Anyway, Lin Tian was waiting for this moment.

However, it was at this moment that both sides entered a pause.

"I'm going to kill him." Jordan said to Rivers bluntly: "After I kill him, I'll rest!"

As soon as Jordan said this, given his status and Lin Tian's arrangement, there was certainly not a single voice of opposition in the East.

If you are happy, then keep playing!

Not only did Rivers let Jordan continue playing, he also very considerately arranged a lineup for Jordan that would allow him to play freely: Kidd, Big Ben, Duncan, and Allen all played alongside Jordan!
Among these four people, there is a top shooter, a top defender, a top blue-collar worker, and a top slacker!
These four people, combined with Jordan, can definitely allow him to play the way he wants.

The Western Conference was also full of players, starting with Kobe taking the free throw for the foul.

And then?
Then, when Jordan was preparing for revenge, Kobe had already walked off the court with a pout on his face and an unhappy look on his face. He picked up a towel to cover his head, as if he had suffered a great injustice. He held his chin with his hand and muttered in dissatisfaction.

Jackson wouldn't let him go!

Phil Jackson said that it was okay to just have fun and that having fun was the most important thing, and then he let him shoot free throws, five up and five down, and kept Kobe on the bench.

result?

The result was that Jordan scored two goals in a row, and after each goal he bared his teeth at Kobe, mocking him for not daring to continue playing.

Kobe was so angry that he stood up twice, but was pushed back by Jackson both times!
Jackson now feels it’s a waste!

What a pity, this is actually the All-Star Game. If someone could do the same to Kobe in the finals, this guy would score 60 points in a single game and lead the team to victory in minutes!
It's a pity, but how about inviting Jordan to Los Angeles to watch the finals? Give him some encouragement?
It's not that there's no point.
After Jordan scored two goals, he felt bored playing without Kobe, so he asked to leave the court. Baron Davis, who was selected to the All-Star Game for the first time, took his place.

In the entire first half, Jordan and Kobe did not play again! Rivers kept his promise. If Jordan did not ask, he would just ignore them.

And Kobe?
Jackson refused to give in. He was so angry that his cheeks puffed up, but there was nothing he could do.

There is no choice but to wait until the third quarter. In the third quarter, both Jordan and I will start. Jackson can't stop us from playing, right?
At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was temporarily 71:74.

The Western team is 3 points behind the Eastern team, which is a negligible gap.

In terms of scoring, the highest scorer in the East is McGrady with 13 points, followed by Jordan with 11 points and Carter with 10 points.

No one else scored in double digits, and except for Big Ben, everyone else got points.

In the West, Francis had the highest score of 13 points, then Peja made 3 three-pointers and scored 3 points, and Kobe also scored 11 points!
In the West, 11 players also scored, and the only one who didn't score was.

According to the convention that the player with the highest score on the winning team gets the MVP, the winner of tonight's MVP is still full of suspense! The scores of the two sides were not far apart, and the scores of the players were not far apart at all.

It is completely unknown who will have the last laugh!

At the beginning of the third quarter, both sides still had 10 starting players on the court. In the first round, Kobe regained some of his rationality. After the pick-and-roll, he passed the ball to Dazhi outside the 3-point line. Dazhi stood at the top of the arc and made a 3-point shot!
"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, he became the last person to break the scoring drought in the whole game. At the same time, this 3 points also allowed the Western team to tie the score again!
Then looking back, Yao Ming was obviously happy at this moment. He took the initiative to reach out for the ball outside the 3-point line, and after getting it, he just threw it!

"Shh!"

After making a 3-pointer, Yao Ming laughed out loud again, and at the same time, he excitedly yelled at him twice and bumped him with his chest.

When Su Qun and Sun Zhengping saw this scene, they immediately couldn't stop laughing. Our Chinese fans were waiting in front of the TV, isn't this what they were waiting for?

What a loving and beautiful moment!

It would be best if these two big Chinese guys could continue to compete against each other, that would be exciting!
But unfortunately, that obviously doesn't work.

From personality to performance ability to status in the industry, these two players are totally unqualified to continue the competition on the court. In the following games, the ball almost never came into their hands.

Of course it doesn’t mean that Lin Tian doesn’t pass the ball to Yao Ming.

But Jordan and Kobe are completely competing with each other!

In the second round, Kobe blocked Jordan with his back to the basket and wanted the ball, but Jordan behind him turned around and blocked Kobe again, and at the same time did not forget to elbow Kobe behind him!

Kobe was willing to let it go after he suffered a loss. He moved sideways, then hit Jordan with his shoulder, and with a bang, Jordan staggered!
When the two men were about to fight each other for position, even a lone wolf like Francis was too embarrassed to take the ball and play by himself. While Kobe had the advantage, he quickly passed the ball to Kobe, who turned around and threw the ball!
"Shh!"

"Where are you? Michael, where are you? The gap you gave me is easier to penetrate than the Maginot Line! By the way, you don't know the Maginot Line, right? After all, you haven't been to school for many days."

"You're a high school student, and you look down on me because I'm a college student and I've never been to school?" Jordan was so angry at Kobe that he almost laughed. He directly took the ball from Lin Tian and rushed towards Kobe.

"I'll let you know the difference between college students and high school students!"

Jordan almost turned around from the backcourt and pressed his back against Kobe. It was the purest physical contact and the most direct collision. Both of them put out the highest level of confrontation they could at the moment, and they were playing for their lives as if they were playing in the finals!

Jordan pushed Kobe all the way to the waist, then suddenly used force with his left elbow to hit Kobe in the stomach, then quickly turned around and made a fake move with the ball to trick Kobe, then Jordan used an easy up and down step.

Take a step forward and throw the ball in easily.

"Kobe, where are you? Your defense is easier to break than the gate of Troy. I can smash your gate on a wooden horse!" After scoring the goal, Jordan couldn't wait to start talking nonsense.

"Idiot, the Trojan War lasted for 8 years! The gates of Troy were incredibly strong! And their gates were not smashed, they were tricked open." Kobe continued to talk nonsense, comparing history and culture with Jordan.

"That's because the attackers were stupid. I'm just using a trick and you're just opening the gates and letting me score easily? I'm Hector and I can easily beat you to a pulp!"

“Can you two illiterate people stop embarrassing yourself?” Lin Tian couldn’t help but interrupt, “The Trojan War lasted for ten damn years, and Hector was the leader of the damn Trojans, not the Greeks!”

"In the end, Hector was beheaded by Achilles. Michael, is your purpose of trash-talking so that Kobe can chop off your head?"

"We are talking, why are you butting in!" Jordan and Kobe once again showed their perfect understanding and said to Lin Tian, ​​"Go away!"

Okay, okay, let’s go.

Anyway, it would be best if you two beat your brains out, I'm just here to add fuel to the fire.

In the next game, the Eastern Conference players took turns feeding the ball to Jordan. As long as Jordan wanted to play, he had almost unlimited shooting rights! At the same time, he was completely overwhelmed at this moment. He didn't want to set a pick-and-roll, otherwise the Eastern Conference would give him a high-post 4-screen in a minute!

In the Western Conference, Kobe's ball possession was not as intensive as Jordan's, but it was definitely not a small amount either. The two of them were almost fighting each other endlessly!

Throughout the entire third quarter, the people around these two guys were replaced one after another, but these two guys did not leave the court at all and played the entire third quarter!
这一节比赛，乔丹14投8中，罚球4罚4中，拿下20分，三节比赛已经轰下全队最高的31分5篮板1助攻2抢断！

科比12投7中，罚球5罚全中，3分球2投1中，拿下20分，也已经拿下了西部最高的30分4篮板1助攻2抢断！

It's hard to tell who's better, they're on par with each other!
In the third quarter, the fans who like Kobe and Jordan really enjoyed the game!

Although the duel between these two players resulted in the other players not having many roles, the fans were still very satisfied to see such a real fight in the All-Star Game where the opponents were beaten to death!

The experienced and knowledgeable Philadelphia fans fulfilled their responsibilities as fans at this time.

Kobe passed the ball and the whole audience booed.

Jordan passed the ball and the whole audience booed!
Kobe and Jordan stood on the free throw line, and the MVP cheers immediately resounded throughout the stadium!
The main purpose is to stir up trouble, the main purpose is to watch the fun without worrying about any trouble!
Lin Tian had no doubt that if any fan at the scene brought weapons such as wrenches or hammers, he would definitely give them to Jordan and Kobe without hesitation and enthusiastically, so that the two of them could enjoy the game more!
Philadelphia is a place with simple folk customs!
Kobe and Jordan are evenly matched, and the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference are naturally evenly matched in this quarter!

103: 104!

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the West team was still behind by 1 point! In this quarter, the West team caught up by 2 points, and the gap between the two sides was always within one round!
Then in the fourth quarter of the game, all the fans in the stadium suddenly started booing wildly.

The reason is of course very simple, Kobe and Jordan were both sitting on the bench!

The intensity of the game therefore quickly declined and returned to the intensity of an ordinary All-Star Game.

Boring!

The fans were completely uninterested in watching the game at this moment, booing Jackson and then booing Rivers.

Finally, they got tired of booing and started cursing Stern.

Stern, who was drinking water in the box, was so angry that he almost spit the water on the floor.

It’s none of my business!
I want to see these two guys continue fighting more than you do!
They are all green banknotes, who doesn’t like it?
In the fourth quarter, without Kobe and Jordan on the court, the fans' state of mind obviously dropped to a level. The shouts and cheers were not as loud as when they booed the two coaches in the beginning of the fourth quarter.

And when the game finally came to the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, the score between the two sides was still very close!

138: 139!

The Western team is temporarily behind by 1 point!
At this point in the game, according to convention, both sides should really fight no matter what!
Coincidentally, at this time, the game entered the last official timeout period of the night, and the fans at the scene immediately started to boo again.

"Give us Kobe! We want Kobe!"

"Michael! We want Michael!"

"Everyone, come up! Let's fight with real weapons!"

"If Michael is not allowed to play, Rivers, this idiot, should be fired!"

"Phil, I beg you to stop pretending and let Kobe come up and play for a while!"

Fortunately, the coaches on both sides are not really stupid, nor do they really want to make things difficult for the fans and the league.

They simply wanted to balance the ball on the court because these two guys played too much in the first three quarters and try to give everyone a chance to perform.

Now it was the last five minutes of the fourth quarter and the two coaches no longer had any reservations. Although neither of them had arranged any tactics, their choices were surprisingly consistent.

Kobe and Jordan, on the court together! Played the last 5 minutes!

In addition to Jordan, Rivers also arranged Lin Tian, ​​Carter, McGrady and Duncan for the Eastern Conference team. It is a complete combination of one big and four small players, and many people believe that they are the five players who should be the starters in the Eastern Conference.

In the Western Conference, in addition to Kobe, Jackson was very cunning and replaced Francis, who played the first 7 minutes of the fourth quarter and had a great time, with Nash, Nowitzki, Peja and Divac.

Well, Jackson, this cunning guy, hid O'Neal at this time.

O'Neal's condition this season is far worse than last season. Perhaps it was because he lost the championship last year that he lost his temper. Not only did his free throw percentage drop to 60% again, but injuries also found this big man again.

During the entire All-Star Game, O'Neal had little presence. Tonight he only played for 17 minutes, scored 10 points and 5 rebounds, and then sat obediently on the sidelines. Judging from his appearance, he obviously does not plan to play in the next games.

Even if Jackson had the choice, he would definitely let Francis play the whole game and let Kobe rest more.

What a good rest time! Kobe wasted it all. He had to chase Jordan to play one-on-one. He really doesn't know how to maintain his health!

Still young.

On the court, the game continued. The first wave of ball possession was Lin Tian advancing with the ball, and then passed it to Duncan who was asking for the ball on the wing. Duncan held the ball with his back to Divac, and then suddenly made a ground pass to Jordan who was running in front of him.

Jordan jumped and shot immediately after receiving the ball.

"Shh!"

Even though Kobe was very close, Jordan still completed the shot easily!
Then in the West, Kobe's backcourt partner changed from Francis to Nash, and he naturally had more ball rights. This guy did not choose to ask for the ball at the top of the arc this time, but imitated Jordan and ran wildly on the court, then took advantage of a screen by Divac to make a pass, and after catching the ball, he just threw it!
"Shh!"

There was also a crisp sound, and Kobe received the ball and made a jump shot!

"See, Michael? I can do everything you can do, and I can do it better than you!" Kobe was completely excited, and now he was also completely excited! He and Jordan really had a great time today!
Lin Tian still dribbled the ball to the frontcourt leisurely, but this time he did not look for Jordan. Instead, he suddenly passed the ball to the inside. The basketball immediately passed through the crowd and was passed to Carter who cut to the 3-second zone.

After Carter got the ball, even though Divac had no intention of stepping forward to help defend, this guy didn't even look at the basket. He made a ground pass to Jordan who was advancing in the middle. After Jordan got the ball, he took advantage of the situation and got 2 points!
Then Kobe followed suit, also running wildly and then trying to cut into the inside.

In other words, Nash is good at passing the ball and has high emotional intelligence. He successfully threw the ball into the basket with a very concealed low-hand pass, assisting Kobe to make an aerial relay dunk!
Lin Tian held the ball again. This time, Lin Tian stretched out his hand to call Jordan to come forward to cover him. The two of them moved towards the inside at the same time. Then Jordan suddenly stopped. Kobe, who was caught off guard, took another step forward before reacting, but it was too late.

Because Lin Tian's pass came too timely, even when he passed the ball, Jordan hadn't started to stop and run back!
Just from this one ball, we can see how well the two of them understand each other! It's like they can see through each other's hearts, they completely understand each other's thoughts, and every pass is just right!
After receiving the ball, Jordan took advantage of the situation and scored another mid-range shot!

Then, in the next few minutes, Lin Tian and Jordan, the former ace duo, once again showed everyone why the two of them are known as the strongest backcourt combination in history!
It seems that these two people know each other's thoughts completely. As long as they run to the right position, the ball will definitely appear in the other's hands. Sometimes it is not the people who carry the ball, but the ball that carries the people!

From the high-post pick-and-roll cooperation, hand-to-hand cooperation, to the breakthrough pass, pick-and-roll and 2-on-1 wall cooperation, the two of them played to perfection, and the fans in Philadelphia were stunned!

Isn't the chemistry between these two too good?

Su Qun even said directly: "I really can't believe that Lin Tian and Jordan haven't worked together for 5 years! The tacit understanding they showed is just like they have been playing on the same team for the past five years!"

"This natural tacit understanding is something that really makes people sigh with emotion."

"That is, if this duo didn't break up, how many championships could they have won?"

Sun Zhengping smiled and said, "At least, the four consecutive championships from 96 until Jordan retired in 99 would not fall into the hands of anyone other than these two!"

"As for what happens next, it depends on whether Jordan still wants to retire!"

"The only thing I can be sure of is that the two of them missed an opportunity to create a super dynasty!"

Su Qun nodded and said, "That's right! Anyway, in my opinion, since the Celtics, who won eight consecutive championships in the 60s, disintegrated, the team with the best hope of getting close to them is the Bulls team where Lin Tian and Jordan are!"

"With the two of them together, 4-5 championships will definitely not be a problem!"

"The only problem is that these two are unwilling to be inferior to others and will not be content to play supporting roles and be the second in the team. Otherwise, we can really look forward to the birth of an unprecedented modern dynasty!"

As the two of them were admiring the natural understanding and beautiful cooperation between Lin Tian and Jordan, the time of the game was passing quickly.

155: 156!

The game time came to the last minute, and the score difference between the two sides was still 1 point!
At this time, Kobe once again took the initiative to provoke Jordan. He continued to fight with Jordan in the low post, and the two men almost had their hands on each other's necks!

The referee still did not make any comment on this.

The referees believe that these two cannot fight!
Nash saw that Kobe's jersey was about to be torn and he was not in position at all, so he didn't think about it anymore. He dribbled the ball and broke through, went to the basket and forced a layup to score the crucial 2 points!
157:156! With 45 seconds left in the game, the Western team finally overtook!
The entire scene immediately erupted in cheers, with fans roaring and shouting wildly!
"Michael! Michael! Michael!"

The fans knew that at this time, it was definitely Jordan's turn to take action!

"Everyone move aside and watch your own men! I'll take care of Michael!" To everyone's surprise, the first person to shout for a one-on-one duel was Kobe, not Jordan!

So, with Kobe's eyes almost shining, both the Western and Eastern teams pulled away, giving Jordan and Kobe a chance to duel one-on-one.

Go for it! The stage is yours for the two of you.

Jordan, holding the ball at the top of the arc, kept dribbling. He did not deliberately compress the time, but kept looking for opportunities, constantly changing the rhythm of dribbling, and then when there were 14 seconds left in the offensive time, he suddenly accelerated and started!
After a crossover step and a change of direction dribble, Jordan broke into the three-point line, then pushed his shoulder hard in the direction of Kobe, and then he just pulled it up and threw it!
But this time Kobe had obviously predicted Jordan's style of play. He gritted his teeth to withstand the impact, and then jumped up to block the shot!
Kobe failed to block this shot, but he successfully interfered with Jordan's hand shape.

"Boom!"

With a crisp sound, the basketball missed the target.

But the West had no time to cheer, because Lin Tian had already rushed into the inside at some point, grabbed the frontcourt rebound, and then threw it directly to Jordan who had already moved to the free throw line.

"Michael! Come again!"

"Boom!"

Jordan chose to shoot again after getting the ball, but he still missed the shot! His shot was interfered by Kobe again.

But this time it was Duncan who grabbed the offensive rebound. Duncan held off Divac, then flicked his wrist and passed the ball to Carter who was right next to him.

After Carter got the ball, he didn't even look at the basket, but dribbled the ball towards Jordan.

The two men quickly performed a screen and hand-to-hand cooperation. Jordan took the basketball from Carter, but Kobe was still relentless. He almost stuck to Jordan's body to squeeze through Carter's screen and jumped with him.

"Snapped!"

This time, Kobe finally touched the basketball as he wished! He finally blocked it!
The basketball was fanned straight toward the sideline.

"Michael!" This time the person who suddenly appeared was McGrady. This usually lazy guy rushed to the sideline, relying on his height and long arms to grab the ball, then turned around and passed the ball to Jordan again!
At this time, there are only 14 seconds left in the game!

"Come on! Come on, Michael! Come again! I can defend you one more time!"

Kobe, who had successfully defended three times in a row, was now completely furious. His adrenaline and dopamine were secreted crazily. He excitedly provoked Jordan and stuck to Jordan at the first opportunity.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Don't cover!" Jordan was also bloodthirsty at this moment.

In his entire life, when had he ever been defended three times in one round?
It is no exaggeration to say that these 40 seconds were the worst and most embarrassing 40 seconds in his career!
Of course Jordan knew why, and even everyone on the court knew why.

Although Jordan didn't play for a long time today, he didn't play for very long.

But he is in a crazy matchup with Kobe almost every moment, and the level of physical confrontation between the two is definitely at the finals level!

Both of them fought with all their might!

Especially in the last five minutes, the two of them were not separated for even a second.

They were all so excited that they forgot it was just the All-Star Game and they all gave it their all!
Under such circumstances, Jordan's shortcomings, such as not having played professional games for two years, insufficient physical reserves, and being 38 years old, were finally fully revealed at this time!

Even in just the past 5 minutes, if Lin Tian hadn't been constantly feeding him the ball to help him cover the bottom line and save his energy, there is a high probability that Jordan would not have been able to fight back and forth with Kobe!
There is a full 15-year age difference between the two people!

Kobe knows this situation, and of course Jordan knows it too!
But even so, Jordan still let everyone pull away from him at this time!
I am Jordan!
After being fucked three times in a row, Jordan will do it a fourth time no matter what!
Pass the ball and let your teammates handle it? Let your teammates come up to screen and then bully Divac, Nash or Nowitzki?
Lin Tian might be able to do this kind of thing, but Jordan can't!

Last 7 seconds!
After taking a breath, Jordan finally started dribbling!

It was still his signature crossover step and change of direction dribbling to get into the inside.

Kobe did not give in at all, sticking closely to Jordan and not allowing him any space to shoot.

But when Jordan shot, he obviously didn't need any space!

He exerted force with his shoulders again, pushed against Kobe, then stepped back, and then jumped up and shot directly!

Everything is exactly the same as it was almost 40 seconds ago!
Jordan will get up from where he falls!

He just wants to prove: Your defense is just a coincidence, my scoring is inevitable!
Everything was so similar to what happened just now, the two people's positions, movements, distance and even everything else was as if time and space were flowing backwards.

The only difference is the result of this goal!

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, Jordan's shot went into the basket with incredible accuracy!

"Buzz!"

At the same time, the whistle for the end of the game sounded!

The Eastern team wins!

It was a decisive kill in the absolute sense, leaving no chance or possibility of counterattack for Kobe or the Western Conference!
157: 158!

The Eastern team beat the Western team by 1 point and won the All-Star Game!
Jordan was extremely excited after hitting the winning shot!
He took off his jersey and roared wildly towards the sky.

I'm not old yet!
I can still fight!
McGrady, Carter, and the players on the Eastern Conference bench were completely released at this moment. They cheered loudly, then ran towards Jordan, surrounded him, and celebrated excitedly!
"I think this All-Star Game will go down in history," Su Qun said after the game. "The matchup between Kobe and Jordan, the legacy of the older generation and the younger generation, the battle for the No. 1 shooting guard."

"The performance of these two guys tonight was really amazing! In the last 40 seconds, we thought Kobe would officially take over and once again win a huge victory over Jordan."

"But we obviously underestimated Jordan! He used his last shot to prove one thing: if it's his, it's his. If he doesn't give it to him, no one can take it away from him!"

Sun Zhengping also said with deep emotion: "Maybe this is the charm of sports! Things are changing all the time, and accidents can happen at any time! Who would have thought that Jordan and Kobe are 15 years apart? In the United States, this age difference can be considered as the difference between father and son!"

“这种对决，真的是看一次少一次了！让我们看看两个人今晚的数据吧！乔丹拿下46分6篮板2助攻3抢断！科比则拿下48分8篮板3助攻4抢断2盖帽！”

"From the statistics, Kobe is slightly better than Jordan, but Jordan used the final buzzer beater to tell Kobe that he is not ready to step down yet!"

Su Qun calmed down a bit and said, "This is also the first time in the history of the All-Star Game that a 40+ point contest has occurred! Add to that the decisive shot and the story between Kobe and Jordan, this year's All-Star Game is definitely worth discussing for a long time."

"In addition, in addition to Kobe and Jordan, Lin Tian also scored 13 points and 21 assists, continuing his dominant assists in the All-Star Game. His pass to Jordan in the last few minutes also made us dream back to the good times five years ago!"

"Other players, Carter scored 17 points, McGrady scored 15 points, Allen scored 10 points, Duncan scored 10 points, Big Ben scored 12 rebounds, Kidd scored 7 points and 7 assists, and other players also made their own contributions!"

"In addition to Kobe's 40+ in the West, Francis scored the second highest 21 points in the team, Nash scored 11 points and 10 assists, Nowitzki scored 12 points, Garnett scored 10 points, and O'Neal scored 10 points."

“最后嘛，则是咱们华夏球迷最为关注的两个人了，大姚今天上场18分钟拿下7分4篮板2盖帽，大致出场14分钟拿下5分2篮板！”

"The overall performance of the two Chinese inside players tonight was not very good, but the clip of them exchanging 3-pointers at the beginning of the third quarter was definitely one of the happiest moments in the history of Chinese basketball!"

On the court, Kobe, who had just been defeated by Jordan, let out a long breath, then shook his head helplessly. Then, after the group of excited players from the East dispersed, he was the first to walk to Jordan, stretched out his hand and said, "See you next time! Next time, I will defend better!"

"Next time?" Jordan didn't hesitate to hug Kobe. After high-fiving him, he continued, "Next time, you can't defend me three times in a row!"

Just when Jordan and Kobe were admiring each other and bragging about their heroes, someone came to spoil the mood.

Lin Tian quickly walked between the two of them, smiled and said, "Luckily you got in, Michael! Fortunately you got in! Otherwise, everyone's kindness would have been wasted! Kobe, you bastard, didn't you leave any energy at all?"

"The gift we prepared for Michael was almost ruined by you!"

"Going all out is the way to respect your opponent!" Kobe patted Lin Tian on the chest righteously, and then asked curiously, "What gifts have you prepared?"

Before Lin Tian spoke, Jordan had already frowned. He instinctively felt that something was wrong!

It's a scam!

This is definitely a fraud!
Lin Tian, ​​this bastard, would never give me a gift for no reason. He would only dig a hole for me for no reason!
Then, before Jordan could react, the players from the Eastern Conference came over one by one.

"Great fight Michael!"

"You will always be our hero!"

"I am proud of you!"

"Honestly, I was a little nervous at the end, but luckily you got in!"

"I knew you could do it!"

"Have a nice journey, the guys will remember you!"

The Eastern Conference players spoke one after another, shook hands and hugged Jordan one after another, making Jordan really confused at the moment.

What is this? Are you sending me away?

It was not until a tall figure finally walked up to Jordan that Jordan finally reacted.

"Even though I don't care, I like the gift Lin gave you very much." Mourning smiled and hugged Jordan, then stood by with a gloating look, waiting to watch the show.

Forest?
Jordan's eyes quickly swept over Lin Tian, ​​but Lin Tian ignored him at this moment. Instead, he walked away and chatted with Yao Ming and Da Da.

When Jordan was about to step forward, the temporary podium had already been set up, and Stern was already standing with tonight's All-Star MVP trophy, holding the microphone with a smile on his face.

He is still very satisfied with tonight's game!

Nice job!

Keep working hard next year!

"Hi, I'm David Stern."

Stern, with a grin on his face, gave his signature opening remarks, and the fans at the scene responded with the boos that all 29 teams are accustomed to.

After a round of boos, Stern smiled and said, "Tonight's game was very exciting. Tonight's matchup was unforgettable! I think in the next 10, 20 years or even longer, we will recall this year's All-Star Game again and again!"

“Being here, I can’t help but think back to 20 years ago when I first took over the league.”

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Stop talking so much! It's too watery!"

"We're not here to watch you fill the water! We're here to watch the players!"

The Philadelphia fans started booing again after just hearing two sentences, interrupting Stern's recollection of the good old days.

Stern didn't care. He smiled and said, "Now, while we wait for the final MVP result to be announced, I want to interview Lin first."

"Lin, I just saw your Eastern Conference players hugging Michael one by one, as if they were celebrating something. What is it that makes you so excited?"

"Because Michael made the winning shot! He lived up to our expectations! We all fed him the ball, and he finally did it!" Lin Tian walked to Stern with a harmless look on his face and took the microphone.

Jordan's expression changed immediately.

Everyone, feed me the ball on purpose?
"We all know that this year's All-Star Game has a completely different meaning! This is Michael's return to the court after three years. This is the first time he has come here to give everyone his energy."

"But I would say that we all know that Michael came back for his friends and for the fans who supported him! Even when he came back, he had already set a date to leave."

"I know, even though Michael didn't say it, this year is his last All-Star trip! After all of us discussed it privately, we decided to give Michael a gift. We hope he can get the All-Star MVP tonight!"

"We are all very united. No one is selfish and no one refuses! Everyone agreed to this proposal, and we all have only one mission tonight."

"Let Michael be happy, let him play a game of basketball to the fullest, let him show 100% of himself to everyone!"

At this time, Jordan's face had changed from being confused at the beginning to being frosty.

At first, he was just a little shocked to know that he was going to retire again.

Then, he was angered by Lin Tian’s next words!

The whole team feeds me the ball? Gives me screens? Everyone is there to accompany me, to make me happy, to help me win the MVP?

These bastards, are they playing house?
I want to take the MVP. Do I need you to let me win? Do I need you to feed me? I can take it anytime I want. Okay, no, at least not tonight.

After being angry, Jordan felt a wave of indescribable emotions.

Because he knew very well that if Lin Tian had not been passing the ball and cooperating with him in the last few minutes to help him save energy and find shooting space, his efficiency would definitely not be that high!
He also knew that in the last 40 seconds, when Lin Tian, ​​Duncan and Carter grabbed the frontcourt rebounds, they all had the opportunity to attack the basket directly, but they chose to pass the ball to himself.

Without their passing, we really wouldn’t have won tonight!

But, even if I can't win, I don't need you to let me do this!
It's like Kobe had to fight Jordan with all his might to win Jordan's respect. If Kobe let Jordan go, didn't defend, and just watched himself attack, Jordan would definitely find it boring after playing 4-5 times.

Similarly, he doesn't need his teammates to let him go!
This kind of unhappiness and frustration even made Jordan forget that Lin Tian had stated on the post that this year would be his last year!

Jordan himself hasn't decided whether he wants to retire again after this year and focus on running the team. Can you help me decide now?
Then I quit?

Lin Tian’s words even confused Stern.

What is this?

I was just interacting with him and chatting about some small stuff for a while, and you told me that Jordan was going to retire?
Stern regrets it now! Very much!
He felt that he should not have asked Lin Tian to come up, and should have told him to shut up and get out of here!

Fortunately, it’s not too late to let him go now!
Stern quickly replied, "Every time Lin speaks, he always gives people unexpected surprises, but now I want to ask Michael, how do you feel now? Are you really so tired that you want to retire on the spot?"

Stern used all his life's knowledge and made a harmless joke with a little provocation. He wanted to change the subject, but even if he couldn't, he would never give Jordan a way out.

It must be put up!
After all, it's not like Jordan can't retire again, but you have to say it in advance so that the league can be prepared and maximize the benefits! At least there has to be a sign, right? You can't just say that Lin Tian, ​​that bastard, is going to retire after just coming over and talking a few words?
At the very least, give me time to prepare a ceremony, find a singer to sing a song to praise Jordan? Or find a versatile player to play the piano and saxophone, so that everyone can have an unforgettable memory?
What does that count now?
Lin Tian also looked at Jordan and said, "Come on, my best friend in this life, Michael, come and talk to everyone!" (End of this chapter)
