With just one goal, Bus already shocked the audience.
Old Paulin's face has changed. The reason why he did not give Daba a three-year guaranteed contract was because he had watched Daba train at the training ground.
It can be said to be useless, except for its greater strength, it cannot find any advantages.
But what the hell is this guy from the outside holding the ball to the basket and dunking tonight? Is this really what a 211 centimeter and 130 kilogram meat shield center can do?
Old Paulin was a businessman with an extremely keen sense of smell. He had realized that he might have made a miscalculation this time.
But it doesn't matter. That non-guaranteed contract can be torn up at any time. After tonight's game, he can sign a new contract with Daba. This time he can't just sign for three years. He wants to sign for six or seven years and give Daba a contract. Five hundred thousand a year, I expect Daba will happily agree.
At the same time, the more old Paulin looked at Lin Yu, the more he liked him. Unknowingly, how much money had Lin Yu saved him?
A big boss can get an annual salary of at least seven to eight million, not to mention tens of millions, and now the annual salary of a big boss is 150,000!
Kobe and McGrady are both rookies, holding rookie contracts, but doing the work of top stars.
…
When it came to the Bulls' offensive round, Kobe immediately faced Jordan.
Harper passed the ball immediately, and Jordan rushed to the three-point line and made a fadeaway jumper. Even though Kobe had exerted all his strength to block the shot, it was still a little short of height.
Fortunately, Jordan failed to score the mid-range shot.
Weber had already tried his best to block Rodman's position. He knew very well that if Rodman rushed to the basket, neither he nor Daba might be able to grab Rodman.
Rodman was stuck for a step, and the bus easily squeezed out Luke Longley and collected the rebound.
Then he made a long straight pass and accurately passed the ball to Kobe.
Everyone gasped again, what the hell is this guy doing? Such a fast, accurate and long direct pass, surely a meat shield center can do it?
I am afraid that more than half of the point guards in the league cannot pass such a perfect long direct pass.
It was the Wizards' offensive round again, and they still passed the ball to the bus outside the three-point line.
Luke Longley didn't dare to squat under the basket this time, so he also pulled out to mark.
However, Bus made a breakthrough on the right side without any technical content. He used his speed advantage to easily pass Luke Longley and headed towards the basket again.
Luke Longley was desperate. Even if he faced the top general, he was not put under such great pressure.
Maybe it's because the general is a famous superstar, and it's not a shame to be beaten by him, but Daba is not even an undrafted player, he is an undrafted player, and Luke Longley doesn't even know where Daba came from.
If you were beaten by such a player, you would be embarrassed and sent to your grandma's house.
The embarrassment is secondary. What Luke Longley is really worried about is Jordan scolding himself...
When he was worried, he saw that Rodman had already rushed to cover the defense, which made him relieved. Bus should not be able to rush to the basket and dunk.
Rodman's diving was a masterpiece. He rushed directly into the charging route of the bus, made slight contact with the bus, and flew backwards.
Daba chose to shoot a mid-range shot on the spot, and the basketball went hollow into the net.
The referee hurriedly blew the whistle. The whistle was for Rodman's blocking foul.
Rodman quickly got up from the floor and ran to the referee to negotiate. It was obviously an offensive foul on Bus, why should he be penalized for blocking?
It's a pity that the referee didn't accept his tactics at all.
Lin Yu stood on the sidelines with a smile on his face. It seemed that Durang's shield worked and prevented Rodman's foul.
Rodman's defense is very weird. Looking at his usual style, you will think that he has a hard-steel defense on the court. In fact, in addition to hard-steel defense, he is also better at diving and causing fouls on his opponents.
In the game against the Jazz, Rodman could always find Malone's breakthrough route, and then dive straight out, allowing Malone to get an offensive foul whistle.
For this reason, Malone and Rodman had countless conflicts on the court, and they often bickered off the court. After retiring, they never interacted with each other.
It's a pity that his evil defense will not be as effective tonight.
Rodman made a defensive foul, and Bus's two-point shot was valid.
Everyone on the scene was shocked. Is this possible to score? Even though he bumped into Rodman, he was still able to throw the ball out before the referee blew the whistle, and he made the crucial shot.
In other words, Bus on the court can not only break through to the basket with the ball and dunk, but he also has a good mid-range shooting ability?
In the next Bulls round, Jordan still beat Kobe, and this time he made a mid-range shot.
Daba scored two goals in a row, and his teammates on the court would no longer doubt his strength. Kobe handed the ball to Daba just after halftime.
Daba took a deep breath, and kept thinking about the play style Lin Yu asked him to play last night in his mind.
If he can make a breakthrough, he will make a breakthrough. If he can't, he will make a mid-range shot. Rodman watched closely and looked for opportunities to shoot three-pointers.
Luke Longley still moved out to guard the outside area. Rodman kept a distance of one meter from Pippen and kept his eyes on Bus. It was obvious that he did not give up on Bus and still wanted to find an opportunity to cause Bus to foul.
As soon as Bus saw this situation, he immediately used his speed to get rid of Luke Longley, and then used Jaylen Rose's pick-and-roll to hit a three-pointer from the outside.
"boom!"
He missed a three-pointer, but it still made everyone on the scene continue to gasp.
What do you mean? This meat shield center still has three-point ability?
Although he missed, he shot so resolutely, and his accuracy seemed to be very good, but he was just unlucky and the basketball crashed on the rim and did not hit the hoop. This is enough to prove that he can really shoot three-pointers.
Jordan was already cursing in his heart. How to deal with such a monster? Even if Rodman can handle it, what about Webb? You can't expect Luke Longley to guard Webber, right? He couldn't even eat the skin off Weber's heel.
Jordan continued to beat Kobe in singles, and this time he hit the mid-range shot again.
Waiting for the Wizards' offensive round, Bus still caught the ball and hit the basket this time. Luke Longley learned wisely and did not confront Bus again.
Seeing Bus rushing to the basket, Luke Longley dodged and avoided the impact of Bus, and then stood still and waited for Bus to take action. He thought that he had a height advantage, and he was not out of position. As long as Bus dared to take a shot from the basket , I can definitely give him a blood cap.
However, Daba's low-post singles attributes of over 95 points were beyond his ability to prevent. Daba used his broad back to resist Luke Longley, and then used his back force to squeeze Luke Longley away and directly made a small hook. His hand hooked the ball into the basket.
"Wow..."
The whole place was in an uproar, and everyone's eyes were about to pop out. Can this monster still attack? !
Not to mention outsiders, even Lin Yu was shocked. In his impression, Daba was also a rough guy. Only Yao Ming could do such delicate work as hooking.
However, Lin Yu still doesn't understand Daba well enough. In fact, Daba already has hooking ability, and his hooking ability is even as good as Yao Ming's.
In fact, most Chinese centers are good at hooking. For example, Tang Zhengdong, the younger generation center, also practiced hooking hard for a long time.
Jordan was completely stunned. He found that he had thought completely wrong. The bus on the field was not Malone, the general or Barkley at all, but a small O'Neal!
A small O'Neal with projection ability, this thing is too scary!
Jackson Jackson called a timeout with a weird look on his face. He also realized that the Bulls were in trouble. Now that Pippen was away, it made sense for them to lose to the Wizards.
But even if Pippen is not absent, can the Bulls really beat the Wizards?
At least he couldn't think of any way to limit Daba's performance.
After the timeout, Luke Longley was replaced by the more athletic 206cm power forward Dick Simpkins.
Of course, Simpkins didn't come on the court to face Bus. It was obvious that Zen Master was planning to let Rodman play against Bus.
When the game restarted, the bus continued to charge. Rodman was like a death squad, always blocking the bus's charging route without hesitation.
He was knocked away every time, but every time he got up from the ground and asked the referee for the whistle.
Lin Yu frowned. He had to admire Rodman's professionalism. He was a true fighter on the court. It's no wonder that there are so many classic scenes of Rodman flying to save the ball in NBA history.
But if he keeps fighting like this, won't he be afraid of getting hurt? The power and tonnage of the charging bus are definitely not something that ordinary people can bear.
Rodman can use his skills to remove a large part of his strength, but with his tightrope-walking style, if he makes one mistake and is hit by a bus, he will undoubtedly be injured.
At first, the referee would call Rodman a blocking foul, and would also give Bus an offensive foul from time to time, but then he stopped calling it altogether.
When Rodman commits fouls, it is sometimes difficult to tell whether he stood up first or whether he ran into the opponent's breakthrough route. No matter how the referee calls it, there will definitely be one party on both sides who will be unconvinced.
It would have been okay if it was only two or three times, but now every round there are people who are not convinced, and the referee simply stopped calling.
…
As the saying goes, you can't walk by the river without getting wet shoes. In the ninth minute of the first quarter, Rodman blocked the breakthrough of the bus, slowed down a step, and was hit by the bus. In an instant, Rodman felt like he was broken. The kite flew upside down.
The fans and referees didn't think it was a big deal because this scene had happened at least seven or eight times tonight.
In order to enhance the visual effect, Rodman would take the initiative to fly backwards every time, trying to win a strong penalty from the referee.
However, after waiting for a few seconds, Rodman lay on the ground and did not get up, and everyone realized that something was wrong.
Jordan quickly stepped forward to check on Rodman, and was shocked to find that Rodman looked in pain, covering his chest, and there was a whirring sound from the chest.
This is obviously a broken rib!
Jordan looked horrified and quickly called to the team doctor on the sidelines.
Lin Yu also realized that things were a bit serious. Did Rodman have a broken rib? Good guy, how hard was the impact just now?
Daba was still stunned and didn't know what was going on. He saw Rodman lying on the floor and thought he was diving like before.
He couldn't understand English at all, so he still looked confused despite the chaos on the field.
It was this blank expression on his face that made Zen Master Jackson feel terrified. This monster was simply a cold-blooded killer. He broke his opponent's ribs, but there was no look of shame on his face? !
If Daba knew that the Zen master thought of him so much, he would definitely cry out for injustice. He really didn't know what happened.
The team doctors carried a stretcher and carefully carried Rodman off the court.
Jordan watched Rodman come off the field, his face extremely ugly, he was angry but couldn't let it out.
Was it the bus that raped Rodman? Obviously not. No matter how the ball is counted, it is Rodman's blocking foul. Bus has already charged, and he ran into Bus's charging route. You can't blame Bus at all.
Unless the bus stopped in time, what reason would he have to stop? This is competitive sports, not a friendly match. It was obviously a foul committed by the opponent, so there is no reason for our side to give up the offensive opportunity.
Moreover, given the tonnage of the bus, it would be difficult for him to stop after rushing up. In that case, it might be his bus that was injured.
Jordan knew that if it were him, he would definitely rush forward without hesitation, but it was impossible not to be angry in his heart. He didn't know when Pippen would come back from surgery, let alone what competitive state he would be in after his comeback.
Just a few games into the season, Rodman broke another rib.
There was a leak in the house and it rained all night, and the Bulls trident was directly damaged by two people, leaving only Jordan as a polished commander.
Zen Master Jackson looked sad, what should he do?
The Wizards have been on a roll this season, playing 9 games since the start of the season and recording a terrifying record of 8 wins and 1 loss.
The Wizards originally put great pressure on Jackson. Even if the Bulls dismissed the Wizards at the press conference, seeing the strength the Wizards have shown so far, they must still regard the Wizards as their biggest opponent this season.
However, in tonight's game against the Wizards, Rodman suffered such a serious injury. If he is unlucky, the season will be directly reimbursed. What will they do against the Wizards in this year's playoffs?
The referee sighed, and after Rodman was carried off the court, they announced that the game would continue without giving the bus any penalty.
There is really no reason for the penalty. Even if the ball was an offensive foul on Bus and there was no malicious intention to hurt anyone, they could still call a technical foul to make the Bulls feel better.
However, Daba couldn't even call an offensive foul, and there was really no reason to call a technical foul.
Lin Yu quickly replaced the coach. After playing nine minutes in the first quarter, the coach's performance was already good enough.
17 points and 4 rebounds are the statistics produced by Bus in these nine minutes.
But this is Daba's debut after all. Lin Yu can't let Daba's data be fixed here. In the next time, Daba will definitely have to replace him.
