For Li Zhen, this was a complete surprise.

Because this was never in his calculations, he didn't have a talent space before the game started.

But when Michael Jordan walked up to him before the game, he felt the magnetic field in his body change violently, as if like-sex attracted.

He didn't know what was going on with the basketball god.

But when they are shooting drills, whenever there is physical contact, they can always feel something flowing from him into their body.

It made him rather strange.

And when Jordan came up to him before the game started, he high-fived, bumped his chest and hugged him.

The feeling is even stronger.

It's not some kind of talent transfer, it's... A 'magnetic field', a magnetic field that makes your body feel more comfortable with your feet off the ground.

Just as Lee Jin was trying to confirm that feeling during the match, Raymond came to the door.

But he was too impatient. He's like a self-righteous high school student who thinks he's bullying an elementary school student. But after being teased for two rounds in a row, he became angry again.

Then, he maliciously pushed Li Zhen.

This allows Li Zhen to passively grab 2 points from him to coordinate and promote positive energy.

And, when Michael made contact with his body again, he felt a wave of violent magnetic field completely regain into his body.

Then, he originally wanted to use a layup to test his ability to increase his coordination to 68, but he unexpectedly found that he was more comfortable gliding in the air. There's a kind of confidence that 'the defender has dropped, and I can still do half a move'.

It's like... A supercar suddenly reduces the drag coefficient through fluid design, the car drags less, the power consumption is reduced, and the speed is increased.

Although this is a very subtle distinction, it gives Li Zhen great initiative on the offensive end.

When he hits back-to-back layups.

He realized...... The feeling of being envious in the air before was actually put into his body so easily.

In the final moments of the race, he wanted to try his limits.

He jumped from the free-throw line and drew cheers from the crowd, and his stance in the air was applauded by many: he didn't jump far, even if he didn't jump high.

But there's a wonderful sense of gliding in the air.

Call!

After Li Zhen landed, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He looked at Michael Jordan on the sidelines, and he thought to himself: If my bouncing ability and body coordination are better in the future, will the gliding effect be more outstanding? Maybe I can do a free throw line dunk like Michael.

Li Zhenxin thought so.

"I have the same smell as him and I like him very much. I'm sorry we didn't get to keep him in the end. ”

In an interview with local media after the game, Michael Jordan said bluntly: "If I had known about the trade at the time, I would have stopped it." ”

"I don't think the current public opinion will affect him. He's going to be a superstar that rocks the basketball world, I trust my instincts. My instincts never fooled me, like Kwame Brown, who had 17 points tonight, along with nine rebounds, two assists and one block. He's not as bad as everybody says, he's played with Bruce and I'm happy for him tonight. ”

While praising Li Zhen, the god of basketball did not forget to wash away his previous reputation.

Kwame Brown's performances have been on the rise since last season's playoffs, and while the ingrained impression is still a parallel breed, there are already more and more voices calling for him to be given a fair rating.

However, Michael Jordan jumped out to open his eyes for Kwame Brown.

The effect is equivalent to: the well-known werewolf actually jumps the prophet.

Sure enough, the media took it out of context, even though many reporters hadn't watched the game at all.

When Michael Jordan, the wonder of draft history, once again praised Li Zhen, and at the same time pulled out Kwame Brown to verify his vision.

The media have articles to do.

This brought another wave of fierce public opinion crisis to Li Zhen, who had finally gained a trace of prestige by killing JR Smith, and as a result... Michael pushed so hard that he immediately hit back into shape.

After all, can there be a good rookie who is favored by Jordan?

What has he done in the draft over the years? In addition to Okafor's decent appearance, in 01 he selected an epic Kwame Brown, let go of an All-Star player who had already made a name for himself in the NBA, and in 05 he got two North Carolina juniors Filton and Shaun May with a high pick.

Today, he is so strongly bullish on Bruce Lee.

Doesn't this mean announcing in advance that Li Zhen's future is bleak?

Interestingly, even the local media in Charlotte thought Ridge Joe had made the right choice: no one believed Michael Jordan's vision.

So much so that Raymond Felton's grievance complaints, which were shaken to the ground and lost again and again, were widely reported.

After the game, the North Carolina elementary school boy told reporters: "Michael will always be the greatest NBA star in my mind. However, the way he looks at people is really terrible. He actually treated that guy as a baby, and when I clashed with him, he actually protected that guy? He must be crazy, he must have forgotten that I was a Bobcats player. ”

"I figured he should call me and say something."

Raymond had a 'come and coax me' expression.

However, the god of basketball really doesn't have time.

When the game ended, negative public opinion and ridicule poured in, which made Mr. Jordan overwhelmed and unbearable.

He decided to give up the unpretentious and boring life of a rich man for a while. He offered TNT an invitation to talk about why he thinks Bruce can become a superstar in front of a national audience, as well as talk about the three reasons why Kwame Brown's talent has not been realized for a long time and what kind of rebirth experience Bruce Lee can bring to Kwame Brown.

Michael went prepared, feeling that he could convince everyone as much as he did with basketball.

When he learned that TNT was planning to have his old friend Charles Barkley as a host, he even called Barkley in advance to make a bet: "If Bruce Lee averages 16+10 per game in three seasons and becomes an elite point guard." Charles, you're going to have to kiss my buttocks in front of the whole American audience. If he hadn't done it, I could have given you the 1993 championship ring and the Finals MVP trophy. ”

The bet was a big blow to Barkley, as the 1993 championship ring and Finals MVP were taken from him, and he managed to lead the Phoenix Suns to the Finals, only to be overturned by Jordan.

So, he agreed on the spot, and emphasized: "You have to say it again on TV." ”

Jordan agreed.

I don't know where he got his confidence, Barkley thinks that with Lee's physical condition, it's hard to say whether he can survive to the third season. What's more, there are still so many Hollywood female stars pestering him, God knows when he will give up basketball and go to pursue his love?

It is difficult for a person like him to be born into a famous family, highly educated, and have outstanding musical talents, and it is difficult for him to withstand all kinds of physical confrontation and psychological oppression in the NBA. Anyway, he has other paths to take.

While the two gamblers finalized the bet, Nike finally held another high-level meeting.

The content of the meeting was to study Bruce Lee and whether to pay a sky-high price to buy Li Zhen's sneaker company, which had only been established for less than half a year.

And this meeting was made possible by Michael Jordan's high praise on the one hand, and the floating layup in garbage time on the other.

The impact it had on sneaker makers was too great.
