To make a visual comparison, as the strongest defensive interior in the 20th century, Ben. Wallace won a total of four All-Defensive Player of the Year, three rebounding titles, five All-Star and six All-Defensive Team awards throughout his career.

The first center of the new generation of the league, Dwight. Howard has three All-Defensive Player of the Year, five rebounding titles, two blocks titles, eight All-Defensive Team and five All-Defensive Team selections in his career.

Jordan Jr.'s honors are 2 rebounding titles, 3 All-Defensive Team, and 2-time All-Defensive Team...... And then there was none.

That's right, as of 2019, Jordan Jr. has only been named to the All-Defensive Team twice.

While taking Jordan Jr. with Ben. Wallace and Howard Derby are a bit of a bully, but as a player known for his defense, it's a bit of a stretch to be named to the All-Defensive Team just twice.

Also known for his defense, Bulls center Joaquin. Noah was also named to the All-Defensive Team three times and was also named the Defensive Player of the Year once.

As long as Jordan Jr. and Noah are mentioned, most people still rely on Jordan Jr.'s defense to be better, and Noah's defense is because of Thibodeau's system to reach that height.

The most lethal thing about Jordan Jr. is that his defensive ability is far less than Ben's. Wallace is so strong, but there is one thing that is not the same as Ben. Wallace is very similar, with a poor free-throw percentage over there.

Root. Wallace shot 41.4 percent from the free-throw line and Jordan Jr. shot 46.6 percent from the free-throw line.

When these two are on the field, they are often targeted by the other side for shark slashing tactics.

The funniest thing is that as the main character born of the shark cutting tactic, Shaq. O'Neal is shooting 52 percent from the free-throw line in his career, which is slightly higher than the two.

The reason why Wang Xiao did not renew Jordan Jr.'s contract and chose to let him go is that his poor free throws are also one of the important reasons.

The Wizards are a team that plays small-ball tactics, speed is the life of this tactic, and the vast majority of teams in the league can't keep up with the thunderous speed of the Wizards, but the existence of Jordan Jr. is a hidden danger.

Once the opponent can't keep up with the Wizards' pace and turns to slashing shark tactics against Jordan Jr. to disrupt the Wizards' offensive rhythm, then the situation is not good.

The Wizards' lineup is full of power, but once it falls into positional warfare, the power will be greatly reduced, after all, there is no strong center in charge, and it is not efficient to rely on the outside to play positional warfare.

The Trail Blazers are in fact the team that has always been playing positional battles right now.

Jordan Jr. guarded the basket, Durant and Aldridge relied on mobility to help defend the defense, plus Andre in the backcourt. Miller and Matthews form the defensive line, and the Trail Blazers' defense is also impregnable.

Against this Trailblazers, what the Wizards and Wang Xiao need to do is actually very simple, only two points.

First, use offense to tear apart the Trail Blazers' defense.

Second, lock in the Trail Blazers' main scoring point, Kevin. Durant.

This is obviously much simpler than when the East Finals played against the Heat, after all, the strongest team this season is the Big Three of the Heat, and even the Big Three have passed the hurdle, and other opponents are not strong opponents for the Wizards, as long as they do not underestimate the enemy and play steadily, they can win the final victory.

……

In the finals between the Wizards and the Trail Blazers, the smell of gunpowder was much smaller than that of the Eastern Finals.

Unlike having a personal grudge with the Heat, the Wizards have no vendetta with the Trail Blazers, although Wang Xiao was selected by Trail Blazers owner Paul for choosing Durant at the time. Allen swept away the draft on the spot, but Wang Xiao did not resent the Trailblazers because of this, after all, he thought it was a dream at the time, made decisions randomly, and did not discuss with anyone at all.

The champion signing means a lot to a team, especially when there is a super center in the rookie who is known as a rare one in 20 years, and there are no other traversers in the Trail Blazers management team present.

And as time goes by, the Thunder's Oden has no ball to play, while the Trail Blazers' Durant has grown into one of the league's superstars, which makes the Trail Blazers from management to fans secretly grateful to Wang Xiao, it's hard to imagine what the next few years will be like if they really select Oden and then lose Roy?

In addition, Little Jordan was also cultivated by Wang Xiao, and the Trailblazers were able to reach the finals, almost all of which were thanks to Wang Xiao.

On the Wizards' side, there is no hostility towards the Trail Blazers, because in their opinion, the most threatening Heat has been dealt with, and there is no opponent in the league who can prevent the Wizards from winning the championship.

……

The Finals start time is June 12, and as the league's best record, the Wizards still have home-court advantage.

On this day, the MCI Center Arena was packed, and the stadium, which can accommodate 20,000 people, was packed.

When the Wizards players came on the court, cheers rang out throughout the audience, and even many fans applauded Jordan Jr. when they saw him.

Little Jordan and the Wizards team are good together, Wang Xiao explained the Wizards' tactical system to Jordan Jr. in detail, so that he understands that he is not suitable for the Wizards' small-ball tactics, although Jordan Jr. left a little nostalgic, but he did not feel resentful.

Even this season with the Trail Blazers, Jordan Jr. was a little glad to have left the Wizards.

With the Trail Blazers, he has a much more important tactical position, has more playing time, and even has some offensive tactics that he never had in his time with the Wizards.

……

During the warm-up, Jordan Jr. went to the bench of the Wizards to greet Wang Xiao and Curry and other veteran players, and agreed to have a meal together after the series.

However, when the greetings returned, little Jordan still said with a serious face when he left: "In this series, I will definitely go all out, and it is we who will lift the championship trophy!" ”

Jordan Jr.'s words made Curry and the others laugh, and Caron. Butler slapped Jordan Jr. on the shoulder even harder.

"Stinky boy, we'll see, we'll be the winners!"

……

Back on the Trail Blazers' bench, Jordan Jr. was about to shoot a few baskets to find his touch, but was stopped by Durantra.

"DeAndrew, what were you doing over there?"

"Say hello to old teammates." Jordan Jr. smiled, "By the way, I said that we would win the series." ”

Durant: "......"
