I am so Accurate

Chapter 305 I am the second center in the league (updated! Ask for a monthly pass!)

Van Gundy reached out and called a timeout.

Although a little belated, he should also be aware of the purpose of the Mavericks.

"Michael, do you want to rest?"

However, Van Gundy did not dare to replace Jordan, but first asked Jordan what he thought.

Jordan shook his head directly.

Now in his heart he just wants to rub Sun Hao on the ground, and the end result is not in his consideration at all.

Van Gundy had no choice but to let him continue.

After returning from the timeout, Jordan continued to beat Sun Hao in a misplaced position.

He faced the frame first, then backed the basket, and finally turned around and scored the ball with the small lever, which caused a commotion in the scene.

"The basketball gods don't have weekends."

After scoring, Jordan glanced at Sun Hao with disdainful eyes.

The two of them have started to enter the mode of spamming each other.

Sun Hao still shrugged his shoulders, he would not make Jordan happy.

Jordan hated his teeth itching.

Sun Hao... really deserves a beating.

Bodi Loga cut in to receive a pass from Sun Hao, and after attracting Yao Ming's supplementary defense, he passed the ball behind the back to Dampier.

Dampier scored a slam dunk with both hands after receiving the ball.

19 to 12!

The Mavericks have scored 19 points in half a quarter, and their offensive state is quite good.

Jordan played Sun Hao again in the frontcourt. This time Bell's help defense arrived in time, but Jordan failed to score the ball when he turned around and fell back.

The Mavericks fought back again. Nowitzki followed up and received a pass in the middle, and licked the basket after dodging to score.

The point difference is moving towards double digits.

Van Gundy saw this and knew that it would be impossible to fight like this.

He turned around and called Hamilton, who came on to replace Jordan.

According to the team's usual style of play, Jordan was more restrained in the opening game, and the main attackers were Mobley and Yao Ming, who have the ability to hold the ball.

But Jordan is now a little dazed.

When Jordan left the court, he gave Van Gundy a cold look, as if he wanted to swallow the latter alive.

Van Gundy coughed twice and looked away.

It is said that there are very few coaches who can coach James, but there are actually even fewer coaches who can coach Jordan.

Especially after reaching the peak of Jordan, no one can hold back except Phil Jackson.

Not just because of his character, but because of his accomplishments.

6 finals and 6 championships, do you think you know how to win better than him?

Jordan was replaced, and it looked like it would be a big drop in strength for the Wizards.

But it's not as bad as imagined.

Hamilton's running without the ball involved defense, Yao Ming's support at the free throw line, Mobley's cut, plus Alexander and Laettner each with a corner.

The Wizards coaching staff has more than Van Gundy, and their chief assistant coach Dean is the offensive coach.

Yao Ming passed the ball to Hamilton, who caught the ball and made a mid-range shot.

This is actually the way the Wizards have played more of the season.

As mentioned earlier, Jordan was holding back at the beginning, and he mainly focused on the three points of Yao Ming, Mobley and Hamilton.

For the Wizards to reach the finals, these people are also indispensable.

The two teams began to enter a stalemate.

After the first quarter, the score on the court was 29 to 20. The Mavericks took the lead, but the lead was not much.

Even if they entered the transition period from the bench, Mobley and Hamilton also performed well, and the Wizards still clung to the score.

In fact, look back at the Wizards' trip to the East this season.

Except for the tie-break with the Nets, the previous games were very easy.

The strength of this Wizards team is seriously underestimated. Even without Jordan, Yao Ming, Hamilton, Mobley, Laettner, Alexander... They are also one of the best teams in the East.

After the transition period from the bench passed, Jordan continued to fire with full force after he came back.

And maybe because he was upset after being replaced by Van Gundy earlier, he played harder in the second quarter than in the first quarter and performed better.

The pull-bar layup after the breakthrough, the dunk after the turn and the drift after the turn...

For several consecutive balls, whether Sun Hao knows what the God of Basketball is, I don't know, but the fans have seen it.

The 40-year-old Jordan can still do what he did at the age of 35!

The basketball god is still unstoppable.

At halftime, the Mavericks led 56 to 53.

Jordan scored 24 points in the half, the highest score in the game, and his performance was quite explosive.

"I guess I'll have to rephrase, Michael was a much better player than Charles."

In the commentary seat, Kenny Smith couldn't help sighing, and of course he didn't forget to complain about Barkley.

However, Barkley, who stood up from the bench and was about to go back to the locker room with his teammates, knew that the game had ended early.

Jordan scored so many points in the half, watching the god of basketball is still there, but one can imagine how bad his physical fitness was in the second half.

Without Jordan, the Wizards are still one of the best teams in the East, but without Jordan, the Wizards are certainly no match for the Mavericks.

Maybe someone will ask at this time, with so many people on the Wizards, there must be someone who can see through the problem like Barkley, so no one will persuade Jordan?

The answer, probably not really.

Looking through the history of Jordan's experience as the owner of the Bobcats, you will find one thing, almost many big decisions are made by Jordan himself.

You don't hear much about the general manager of the Bobcats.

Perhaps the words of an executive leaving the Bobcats in the future can explain all this.

"Michael's personality is too strong, and the people around him basically cater to him, which makes him extremely confident in everything he does."

Looking back at the current Wizards, Yao Ming wouldn't say it, and Van Gundy didn't dare to say it, let alone others.

So in the end is the immediate result, what Jordan wants to do, no one can stop him.

Back from the halftime break, the trend of the game developed as Barkley expected.

Although after a half-time break, it is unrealistic for the 40-year-old Jordan to rely on these 20 minutes to recover his physical fitness.

Entering the second half, his offensive efficiency dropped significantly, and his continuous shots made people feel that there was such a big gap.

In fact, let alone others, Jordan felt that he was a little powerless, and his knees were sending him danger signals.

In the end, he could only choose to compromise and give the offensive leadership to Yao Ming and Mobley.

He didn't want to repeat the regrettable ending of last year's season reimbursement.

Jordan started to hold back, but the Wizards couldn't beat the Mavericks with other people alone.

At the end of the third quarter, the Mavericks opened the point difference to double digits.

At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 108 to 93.

Although Jordan scored a game-high 29 points, it still couldn't prevent the team from losing.

For the Mavericks, Sun Hao performed well, scoring a team-high 26 points and 6 assists, Dirk Nowitzki with 21 points and 7 rebounds, and Dampier with 16 points and 12 rebounds.

After the game, the Dallas fans at the scene began to revel.

Although Jordan was a god in the first half, he couldn't stand the ruthlessness of time, and the Mavericks won without any danger.

At this time, no one noticed that Barkley looked at Sun Hao very differently from before.

After going through this match, he had such a trace of admiration for Sun Hao.

It was unbelievable when he realized this himself.

But that's the reality.

If Sun Hao hadn't started digging holes for Jordan since the Eastern Conference Finals, Jordan wouldn't have jumped into it so easily.

But Sun Hao did just that, and the game became much easier after he did it.

This is something on the strategic level in the true sense, and it doesn't matter if you don't admire it.

Of course, Barkley is not the only one who admires.

In the stands, James was eating Taco and thinking about playing Sun Hao next season, while Anthony's eyes were full of idols.

Only the stronger can make the strong submit!

At the press conference after the game, Sun Hao and Nelson attended together.

When asked about Jordan's performance tonight, Sun Hao's answer made the reporter feel what the hell is called "Emotional Intelligence".

"Michael is omnipotent. If he is 5 years younger, I believe no one can beat him. He is really too strong and almost impossible to defend. You can't find a second better basketball player than him."

After winning the game, Sun Hao, the guy who dissed Jordan crazily before, began to crazily turn into Joe Blow.

The reporters praised Sun Hao one after another. In their opinion, Sun Hao is now a high-quality idol who is neither arrogant nor humble before the game, and neither arrogant nor impatient after the game.

The badge of "Modest Gentleman" also plays a role quietly.

Of course, these words are most useful to Jordan.

After losing the game, Jordan, who didn't shake hands with Sun Hao after the game, returned to the hotel and saw what Sun Hao said at the press conference, he... laughed.

Look, this kid Sun Hao finally admitted his strength.

Some people won't recognize you if you don't give them a look.

With backbone, he deserves to be the one who was hand-picked by him as the head of the five shooting guards.

After two days of rest, the second game of the finals continued in Dallas.

The trend of the game was exactly the same as the first game. Jordan's performance in the first half was even crazier. He scored 27 points and helped the Wizards lead the Mavericks by 10 points 57 to 47!

But in the second half, Jordan once again felt powerless in the face of the Mavericks' frantic chasing momentum.

In the end, the Mavericks scored 60 points in the second half and reversed the Wizards 107-98!

Jordan scored 34 points again, and Dampier was in good shape for the Mavericks, and once again got a double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds.

After two games in the finals, the Mavericks took a 2-0 lead.

This result is about the same as the fans expected.

Although the Wizards are not weak, and Jordan's two consecutive 30+ games are also very good, but the Mavericks are obviously stronger.

And after successive seasons, coupled with the baptism of the Lakers and Spurs, the Mavericks' style of play has become very mature.

Whether it is Sun Hao and Nowitzki's classic pick-and-roll and dislocation singles tactics in positional warfare, or non-positional warfare defensive counterattack or running and bombing, this team has mastered them well.

Maybe the night the Spurs were eliminated, what Duncan said was right, this Mavericks is the champion.

Maybe Jordan is five years younger, leading the Wizards and the Mavericks is 50-50, but now it is at least 30-70.

The odds for the Wizards to win are much smaller than those for the Mavericks.

Mavericks win, it seems only a matter of time.

...

The current format of the finals is 2-3-2, that is to say, after the first two games are over, the two sides will move to Washington for the next three games.

This is good news for the Wizards, playing at home, if they can seize the opportunity to win one or two games, there will still be games in the series.

Some people may complain that this competition system is unreasonable, because it is completely impossible to see where the home court advantage is.

This is indeed unreasonable, but the restructuring was not carried out until 2014 in history.

The reason why it took so long to change is naturally that the league hopes that the team, which is likely to be behind in the away game, can reverse the decline and make the finals more intense.

Stern's idea is that it is best to play seven games in a game like the finals.

There are still three days before the start of the third game, and the rest period in between is a bit long.

At this time, the league began a joint trial for the new draft in Chicago.

The NBA has a draft withdrawal deadline, which is usually arranged after this joint trial training. Those who have poor draft prospects after the trial training will withdraw from the draft before the deadline, so that they can still participate in the next year.

Such examples are common in the NBA.

Of course, even withdrawing from the draft is very risky, and those who withdraw from the draft in the second year with worse draft prospects abound.

It is up to the players to decide whether to participate in this joint trial.

Both James and Anthony chose not to go to Chicago, and Milicic only participated in private workouts with a few teams.

But other than that, most of the other people went, including the popular Bosh, Wade, and of course Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian in history did not participate in the joint trial training, and because of the video of using a chair to train, he was also called a "chair man" by the media.

But now history has changed, and Yi Jianlian appeared at the joint trial training.

Moreover, he became one of the brightest rookies in the combine.

The joint trial training is the same as the one that Sun Hao participated in at the beginning. It depends on both static talent and dynamic talent, and there are even half-court and full-court.

Yi Jianlian's static and dynamic talents are too good, and he was among the best in the training camp, even overshadowing his former high school opponent Bosh.

He also performed very well in the full and half courts that followed.

In the words of the media, the eyes of the Bulls general manager Klaus, who watched the trial training on the spot, are already shining.

Immediately after the workout, ESPN put him in the top ten of the draft and is expected to be selected by the Bulls at No. 7.

This prediction is well-founded. In addition to personal strength, after the Bulls missed Sun Hao and Yao Ming in a row, they really need a Chinese player.

This also makes domestic fans full of expectations, this is the platinum generation that the league has almost recognized in advance.

No. 7 in this draft is already comparable to the top three at other times.

What's more, the Bulls may not be able to pick Yi Jianlian in this pick!

Just when the joint trial training turned the fans' attention to the draft, a piece of news from the Mavericks brought them back to the finals in an instant.

Maybe the offseason is really boring. After a day of training, Mavericks starting center Dampier said such a sentence in an interview with reporters.

"I'm the second-best center in the league, and I'm the best center in the league besides Shaq."
