Jalen Rose is just gone.
Everyone was left looking at each other.
But soon, Coach Bill relaxed. Because he feels...Jalen Rose's departure doesn't seem to be a big loss.
This idea not only exists in the mind of Coach Bill, but also in everyone's mind.
He hasn't played well in these games either.
Even Roger Mason smelled the coming opportunity at this time: If you can't steal Su Feng's playing time, you can steal Jaylen Rose's. Now it seems...Jalen Rose is not much better than Su.
Roger Mason immediately looked at Coach Bill with excited eyes: Look at me, look at me, Ross has diarrhea, and me, I am Roger Mason, call my name.
Mason's eyes were hotter than a drugged woman in love.
His desires and needs are visible to the naked eye.
But Coach Bill's eyes skipped over him. He arranged for Scottie Pippen to play, and the backcourt combination was still Hinrich and Crawford.
The second quarter of the game begins.
LeBron James returned to the 3rd position from the 1st position, and his current position has not yet been fully established.
He took on Pippen.
Pippen is one of James' draft templates, because Pippen was also very physically fit when he was young and had comprehensive skills. He was a famous point forward in NBA history.
After Hinrich assisted Eddy Curry to score a goal, James did not respect the old and cherished the young, and he punched Pippen hard.
The situation started with high-intensity physical confrontation.
Pippen is old.
Five years younger, it would not be difficult for Pippen to stop James. But now he is at the age of retirement, his physical condition is infinitely close to that of an ordinary person, and he is still suffering from injuries. There is no need or ability to show bravery to the young man. So he fought and retreated, watching James crash into the penalty area and perform a one-handed dunk.
After James scored, he looked up to the sky and roared.
Dunking on Pippen was a very meaningful thing for James.
I have watched Pippen play since I was a child, and I have always yearned for him. Now that I can show off my talents for the first time in the NBA, how can I not be excited?
Fans at Gonzále Arena also cheered excitedly.
James roared with pride and thousands of cheers in the arena.
These things are like a sharp steel knife, piercing into the self-esteem of Scottie Pippen, a veteran star.
He took a deep breath.
Back at half court, he reached for the ball from Kirk Hinrich.
He wants to beat James alone.
Pippen is tall and has long arms, he has a high level of ball control, and he can break through the frame and post up...
This time, he chose to back up. He leaned against James and exerted a slight force at first. After testing the reality, he suddenly turned around. James's defense was too immature. He had the habit of gambling steals, but what about Pippen's veteran experience? He might be attacked by surprise.
Pippen deliberately sold the flaw to lure him forward, then suddenly turned around, bypassed the defense, took a step inside, and then made a sudden stop for a jumper.
Su Feng watched with fascination from the sidelines. Pippen played very smartly, with silky skills and the ultimate enjoyment.
However, the moment Pippen jumped to the highest point and took action.
James, who was thrown away, turned around quickly. His physical fitness was so terrifying. He took a step forward and jumped forward with a fierce bounce...and stretched out his arm to slap Pippen hard.
His strikes are violent and swift.
Pippen was hit by James in the air, and he screamed in pain, and then couldn't help but fell backwards... Plop!
He fell heavily to the ground, and his body immediately curled up into a ball, letting out miserable and uncontrollable sounds of pain.
Beep!
The referee quickly stopped the game.
James stood to one side, looking at a loss.
Obviously, this is also the first time he has experienced such a scene on the court. Watching Pippen lying on the ground, he was sweating in pain and making a miserable sound.
He blamed himself very much.
Ilgauskas walked over, took him aside and told him, "This is part of the game and Scott is going to be fine."
The Bulls' team doctors came quickly. They knew Pippen well. Pippen had been plagued by injuries in his early years and had back problems at a young age. When he signed that historically exploitative contract with the Bulls, it was also because he was worried about his back injury.
This time, it was obvious that he had hit an old injury.
The team doctor quickly asked the staff to bring a stretcher, and everyone carefully lifted Pippen up and pushed him out.
Pippen leaves.
Ross is running thin.
The Chicago Bulls are even more stretched on the perimeter.
Coach Beal took a look around and decided to put Kendall Gill on first.
Su Feng is his key protection target.
Crawford helped Pippen hit the extra free throw.
Then, in less than 15 seconds, Jamal Crawford was injured. When he was guarding Ricky Davis, his foot was stepped on by Davis. As a result, Ricky Davis was not injured, but Crawford sprained his ankle while chasing forcibly.
The game was stopped again.
Jamal Crawford limped back to the bench and was examined by team doctors.
Initially, he thought it was an ordinary sprain, but the team doctor's face became more and more solemn, and then with the help of Roger Mason, he was helped out of the Gonza Arena.
What the hell….
Coach Bill's head was numb.
"The Bulls injured two guards in a row. It's really unfortunate. Their luck is terrible." Kenny Smith said in the commentary box: "The biggest fear for athletes is injury. No one wants to end up in the hospital after an ordinary confrontation. , and then undergo a long period of rehabilitation, and may never even regain their former athletic ability.”
"Pippen's career should be over." Charles Barkley said sadly.
He actually hates Pippen. When he joined the Rockets, he wanted to win the championship with Olajuwon and Drexler, but he failed continuously. Later, he took the initiative to cut his salary to help the team recruit Pippen, but Pippen started to show off when he arrived in the Rockets. As a result, he made no money and no championship, and his efforts were in vain.
But watching his contemporary Pippen bid farewell to the game, there is still a sense of sadness that "one thing hurts another."
Perhaps in order to ease the sad atmosphere brought by the two partners, Earl Johnson said: "Injuries are a very bad thing. But sometimes injuries will also bring new changes to the league. Many stars are injured because of the ball." The team's main player was injured and the tactics were vacated. He stepped forward to seize the opportunity, jumped across the hierarchy and became a star."
"So who do you think the Bulls can seize the opportunity this time?" Kenny Smith asked him.
Earl Johnson glanced at the court: "Su Feng, how are you doing?"
"hehe."
Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley both smile.
Su Feng has already gone into battle.
Coach Bill had no choice but to take three outsiders in a row and had no choice but to let Su Feng play.
At this time, the Bulls were 5 points behind. The team lineup is Kirk Hinrich, Kendall Gill, Su Feng, Eddy Curry, Tyson Chandler.
Two freshmen, a veteran defensive back who is nearing the end of his career, and two young big men.
No matter which angle you look at this lineup, it doesn't look like it can take off.
Jalen Rose lay in the locker room, watching the scene on TV.
He couldn't help but laugh.
Retribution!
God help me.
Scottie Pippen is injured and will definitely retire.
Crawford is injured and will miss at least a week or two.
Su Feng was beaten by LeBron James tonight, and Coach Bill's trust in him will instantly collapse.
So... who can save the bull from fire and water?
Isn’t he still the top guard of the Fab Five in Michigan, the superhero who averaged 20+ per game last season, Jaylen Rose?
Ha ha!
Jaylen Rose's laughter gradually became abnormal.
He began to imagine the scene where Coach Bill would beg him to come out and play in a low voice.
Should I embarrass him?
Hum.
…
Beep!
Su Feng handed the basketball to Hinrich and then ran to the frontcourt.
When he came to the frontcourt, he immediately started running quickly, and LeBron James quickly chased behind him. However, the current James is not good at defending players without the ball. In fact, his current defense is still very immature, relying more on strong physical fitness, and there are many gambling steals... and he is very unfocused and habitually likes to catch and initiate quick counterattacks. Opportunity.
In the NBA, there is an unwritten rule...the more quick defensive counterattacks a player initiates, the more defensive positions he misses in positional defensive battles.
Su Feng quickly shook off James.
He received a pass from Crawford outside the three-point line and shot... swish!
hit.
Su Feng scored the first score of the game.
This is his job.
"Beautiful running." Barkley praised on TV and commented: "Although he is not fast, he is very good at using the movements of his teammates and even opponents to cut in, and he has strong concealment."
"If he continues on this path, he will become a good representative of role players in the NBA. Every team needs shooters who can stretch the floor."
"It would be better if his defense could be a little better."
While talking, LeBron James got the basketball, and Su Feng stood in front of him.
James is taller than Su Feng, but Su Feng stood in front of him and opened his arms, still causing him great defensive interference.
James didn't deal with Su Feng, he took a step forward and charged inwards.
However, as soon as he took a step forward, Su Feng blocked his way.
Su Feng's physical strength is very strong. His strength talent is copied from that of Little Shark Eddie Curry and has reached 91 points. Better than rookie James.
James was blocked, and his technical movements suddenly became somewhat tangled.
Su Feng's power was beyond his imagination, and he didn't expect it.
Just when he turned around, trying to open up some space, and then pass the ball, Su Feng came up and saw that James' dribbling rhythm was messed up... He immediately stretched out his hand... His arms are very long and his palms are extremely huge... Snapped!
On the spot, James' basketball was shot down.
When the basketball was knocked down, Su Feng squeezed forward, grabbed the basketball by force, and immediately rushed forward with the ball.
After James yelled for a foul and didn't respond, he quickly chased after him to defend.
James is very fast.
After crossing the center line, he chased Su Feng. At this moment, Su Feng suddenly made a sudden movement to the left... James leaned to the left instantly.
But at this moment, Su Feng's right hand quickly pulled the basketball back, his body accelerated, and his explosive power was fully unleashed... Phew!
Passed James in an instant.
This is a classic streetball move.
Many people call it: passing God!
When Su Feng completed this extremely difficult and bizarre change of direction with ease and ease, Coach Bill on the sidelines hugged his head. He felt incredible.
But Su Feng's performance was not over, he quickly reached the three-point line.
He didn't pause for a moment, he just jumped up and shot... He felt so good, he didn't want to rush in and get a layup.
He will be here to end this attack.
After taking action, he felt even better.
This shot was unexpectedly soft.
So, he raised his hands.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc, and among the stunned collective expressions at the Gonzále Arena... it plunged into the net... swish!
Whitecaps rolled up.
There was a deathly silence in the Gonza Arena.
They didn't expect it.
They never took Su Feng seriously.
They believe that the comparison between Su Feng and James is an insult to the Chosen One.
But now, Su Feng stole James and used his superb ball control to directly shake James away, which was cleaner than a drum washing machine.
He came outside the three-point line and took a direct shot to kill the opponent and go ahead by 1 point.
Before the ball went in, he had already opened his arms and showed a confident smile.
In comparison, LeBron James standing next to him looked like a clumsy supporting role, and the light of the chosen one was completely obscured.
Ohoho! ! !
McGrady in front of the TV was already screaming in advance. He jumped up from the sofa. He was even more excited than he was when he completed the game.
Look! What did I say? What did I say? Tony is a talented son, he is no worse than LeBron! !
There was also horror in the Nike conference room.
They had all given up on Su Feng and even wanted to recover the price.
But now, Su Feng gave them a shocking surprise.
Su Feng actually completely tore James apart on both offense and defense.
This will definitely be a top five shot! This will definitely be a top five shot!
Su Feng is not a shooter, he has the ability to hold the ball! !
Oh my God!
"Study him quickly! Study him quickly!" Phil Knight, founder of Nike, can't wait.
The commentators on TV started to shout belatedly.
"Oh my God! God! What happened? Su killed James, how did he do it? He showed his defense, his ball-handling skills, and his shooting in this round! Superb!"
"Why did he hide himself before? I can guarantee that his ball control is better than most defenders. No, he is better than 99% of forwards and defenders."
"Don't this kid want to be a star? He should have come up with these damn moves earlier."
"I'm starting to believe Tracy McGrady. This guy has potential. The Bulls are developed."
"The more this kid looks, the more he looks like that damn old gangster. They are both Bulls guards, both 1.9cm tall...even their backs are exactly the same."
Barkley bursts out like a machine gun on television.
Passion abounds.
The shock of this ball is too strong.
Who would have thought that the first head-to-head confrontation between Su Feng and James would actually see the Chosen One defeated on both offense and defense.
