668: He chose us
When he heard Link say that, Jordan was not only choked, but his head was a little confused.
Arenas was 95 of 100 shots! Only 5 of 100 three-point shots were missed, and an average of 20 shots were missed! Even in an undisturbed training gym, Arenas' hit rate is quite exaggerated.
While many NBA-caliber players can shoot every shot in practice, 100 consecutive three-point shots are no joke. Even without interference, 100 shots in a row are very physically demanding.
Once you can't adjust after the physical fitness fluctuates, it is possible to lose consecutive throws. Therefore, Arenas' 95-of-100 shooting is very difficult for even active players to do.
However, instead of being frightened by Arenas' 95-of-100 shooting, Link was still in the mood to talk nonsense.
Jordan can't stand this, even if Link is the first of the top 50 superstars of the new season selected by ESPN, that sentence just now sounds too arrogant to Jordan!
"Are you alright? Too much energy? "Robert. Pera saw that Jordan was choked and deliberately teased.
"You kid, you're kind of something. Do you see clearly? Gilbert was 95 of 100 shots. Jordan walked up to Link, he couldn't allow anyone to pretend to be in front of him.
"I know, I can too." Link smiled.
"Okay, that's what you want. Gilbert is on the right, so you're on the left at 45°. If you can win, I will personally send this 1 million to the hospital! ”
Jordan is also energetic, I haven't played such an exciting game for a long time!
He didn't want to be serious with Link, but he really didn't want to be ridden by the neck. So, he personally helped Link pick a spot.
In fact, there is no basis for the position he picked, and Jordan can't take Link's shooting distribution map and specifically pick a Link's shooting cold zone.
However, even if Jordan is really that serious, Link is not afraid. Because after Jordan gets the distribution table, he will find that Link has no cold zone at all!
Arenas spread his hands, indicating no objections. By this time, his mind had already flashed ten kinds of trash talk that would mock Link later.
Hit more than 95? How can it be!
Link slapped the basketball again, stood outside the 45° three-point line on the left side, and took up a jumper!
The moment he saw Link jumping, Jordan's eyes widened and he looked very carefully. It was the first time he had seen Link shoot up close, and he wanted to see what was so special about this amazing Chinese.
Link's shot was fast, but Jordan could still see that his shooting posture was standard.
"Worthy of the man who beat LeBron last season, if nothing else, this goal should be ......"
"Bang!"
Before Jordan finished praising Link in his heart, Link's first shot was iron!
The corners of Old Man Qiao's mouth twitched twice, he just shouted so vigorously, but he hit the iron with the first shot, wasting his expression!
"Hahahahahaha, what the hell are you doing, boy!" Arenas was not as restrained as Jordan and laughed out loud on the training ground.
But soon, Arenas noticed that Link was not embarrassed and had a faint smile on his face.
A "you're ready" expression.
After receiving a pass from the trainer, Link made a second shot.
He really didn't adjust well just now, after all, Link didn't warm up from start to finish.
However, for Link, on the training ground without defense and interference, one opportunity to adjust is more than enough.
In the second shot, the basketball is very accurate in terms of flight arc and angle. This time there were no accidents, and the basketball hollow went into the net!
Arenas stopped smiling for a moment, but he was still confident. Hitting more than 95 shots out of 100 shots is so hard! As long as Link makes any mistakes, he loses!
But then, Arenas and Jordan faced only a tidal wave of Nets tumbling.
Link did as promised, shooting at a 45° angle to the left without moving a single step. Even if it deviates slightly from its position after landing, it will adjust back.
The sound of the Nets tumbling continued for a long time, and Jordan and Arenas' mouths opened wider and wider.
At first, Arenas counted how many Link hits. But later, he counted the strings directly, because the number of times Lin Kelian hit was too many!
Later, not only Jordan and Arenas, but the rest of the Grizzlies opened their mouths wide.
In daily training, players rarely shoot 100 times in a row. Even if you have to shoot 100 times, you usually have to divide it into several groups to complete, and you won't shoot it all at once.
So his teammates were a little surprised to see Link score so much.
I don't know how long it took for Jordan to feel like his jaw was about to dislocate, and Link finally missed the second ball!
"Boom!"
A crisp sound of striking iron brought everyone present back to their senses.
Link shook his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Instead of immediately continuing to shoot, he turned his head and asked the trainer with complex statistics, "How many hits did I hit in a row?" ”
“#&......”
"Huh?" Link didn't hear what the trainer was saying, as his voice seemed to tremble.
The trainer swallowed, then spoke again, "79 in a row!" ”
"Boom!" Arenas felt a loud bang in his head, blank!
Just now he hit 50 in a row, which is already the highest record. And now, Link has nearly 30 more consecutive hits than him!
Link has now made 80 pitches and missed just once.
In the last 20 chances, Link will not lose even if he misses 1 of 5 shots!
Arenas fell into deep despair, he thought he was sure to win, but he didn't expect Link to understate such an exaggerated result.
This alliance has really changed.
In the next 20 balls, Link missed two due to his declining fitness.
Although it did not continue the exaggerated streak record, the record of 97 of 100 three-point shots still made the training hall cheer violently!
The moment the 100th shot was hit, the Grizzlies players rushed up and surrounded Link like ordinary fans watching from the streets.
Several cameras on the scene faithfully recorded this incredible duel, and if it weren't for the video evidence, it would surely become an urban legend that no one believes in the future.
Michael. Jordan tucked the cigar between his fingers and froze in place. He has lived through countless great moments, and he has created countless great miracles.
He had witnessed Reggie. Miller completed the miracle of a three-point shot after pushing himself away, and also completed the world's unparalleled "The Shot" in Cleveland in 1989.
As the greatest basketball player in the world, Michael. Jordan has seen too many big scenes.
But 97 of 100 three-point shots!? Jordan admits that he was scared!
"Where did you find this guy in the first place......" After a long time, Jordan finally held back this sentence.
If Jordan had such a good vision, the Bobcats might be the top team in the East.
"Maybe it wasn't us who found him, it was God who chose us." Pera smiled and took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from Jordan's forehead.
It was all a cold sweat that scared out.
"yes, God sent Link to Memphis."
"No," Pera shook her head, "Link is God. ”
Arenas put away his initial conceit and walked over to Link with a shake of his head.
Fortunately, Arenas didn't pull his pistol from his waist, but hugged Link gently, "You're really yours, boy." You won, and we donated the 1 million. ”
"You're not bad, Gilbert. There will never be more than three active players in the league who can do better than you. Link also gave Arenas enough face, and one thing to say, as a retired star, Arenas' three-point shooting percentage is really perverted.
"You've ruined my heads-up with Jordan, man...... But that's okay, I don't want to go head-to-head with Jordan right now. Do you have time next summer? The two of us have a round? Arenas raised an eyebrow at Link.
"Feel free to come to me at summer camp, Gilbert."
Link knew he had won more than just $1 million for the Children's Hospital.
It has also won the respect of the two major hooligans in the history of the Alliance.
Seeing that Jordan and Arenas both bent over for Link, the invited reporters who were in charge of the video off the court couldn't calm down for a long time.
"What happens after the footage is released?" A photographer asked his colleagues.
"God knows what will happen, but the whole world will go crazy. Link, this guy, has made the 'gods' defeated. ”
