Chapter 457 [Every time you play against the sun, abuse me fiercely!] 】
The Suns returned home, beating the underdogs Warriors and Trail Blazers to make it seven wins in a row.
The Trail Blazers' centerpiece, Rasheed Wallace, didn't play and was put on the shelf. He no longer has the energy to lead the Trail Blazers forward, and everyone says that he is not a qualified team core, and the Trail Blazers should choose to rebuild.
Fraud, QJs, shootings, almost all types of scandals can find an exemplary representation in the Trailblazers.
Rashid was found to be carrying marijuana while racing with Damon Studamayre.
In addition to being rumored to be a laughing stock for Ruben Patterson's self-proclaimed "Kobe Terminator", his off-court bad deeds are also outrageous. In May 2001, Patterson was charged with sexual harassment and attempted QJ by his nanny. As a result, Patterson was sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for two years, and fined.
Patterson is just a role player, and Rashid and Bunch Wells, as the core of the team inside and outside, are recognized as the two major thorns, and the management has a headache.
In 1997-98, Rashid received an all-time 38 technical fouls, and in 1998-99, Wallace broke his own record with 40 technical fouls. Last season, he was also banned seven games by the league for threatening Tim Donassier (who later became famous as a betting referee), the longest suspension for non-violent reasons in history.
Trail Blazers management has been negotiating around lately in exchange for a 2004 high-pick pick, or this year's outstanding high-pick rookie to develop as a team-building core. It's hard to make this kind of trade, and every team is looking at potential rookies as treasures, so how can they send them out for thorns?
The Lakers' away game against the Bucks ended two and a half hours early, and they lost again, and O'Neal was also out due to injury. Previously, the Lakers also lost to the Suns and Grizzlies, suffering three consecutive defeats.
A reporter interviewed Jordan and raised a question. Is Kobe really better than Guo Xu? Why can't he win the ball as the core leader of the team?
Jordan once again firmly said that Kobe Bryant is better than Guo Xu, and the reason is still the balance of offense and defense. When it comes to judging rookies, he also gives a different answer.
The reporter asked Jordan to evaluate who was the best rookie this year, and Jordan replied without thinking about it: "I think Carmelo Anthony is the best rookie, he is more well-rounded than LeBron James." ”
James is currently averaging 20.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.7 blocks per game while shooting 41.3% from the field. Not only is he sharp and can assist his teammates, but he is also excellent on the defensive end.
What about Anthony? Averaging 21.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.5 blocks per game, the Nuggets' playmaker is Andre Miller, Anthony is a scorer with a shooting rate of 42%, and his organizational skills are not outstanding.
Compared with the number of assists, pseudo-fans can see that James is more comprehensive, but Jordan can't see it?
The reporter thinks that the reason why Jordan said this is because James's sneaker contract is signed with Nike, and Anthony is signed with Nike's Jordan brand.
As for why Jordan didn't look down on Guo Xu, he said that Kobe was the best, and specifically pointed out that Kobe Bryant was learning his tricks...... Does he look up to Kobe? He said that his skills were good, and even his imitators were the strongest.
To put it bluntly, it means one thing: you can't kill me, and the best Kobe Bryant depends on learning from me.
In fact, Jordan's unpopularity shows Guo Xu's strength, and his current achievements make Jordan feel a serious threat, after all, Jordan only won the first championship at the age of 28, and Guo Xu didn't know how many championships he won at the age of 28.
Jordan has never been a good person, and when he sees that his position may be threatened, he naturally wants to suppress it. It's like the middle school students who are the first in the class and desperately want to suppress the second in the class, but you and I are the middle school students in the class.
In Jordan's view, Kobe's career is almost set in stone, and he can't pose any threat, so treating him well can also create an image of himself sympathetic to his younger generation. Even if the two have the same number of rings in the future, people will not think that Kobe Bryant surpassed Jordan, after all, he even imitated Jordan with his tongue, and the first three championships were O'Neal's younger brother.
At the post-game press conference after defeating the Trail Blazers, a reporter interviewed Guo Xu and told him that Jordan didn't look down on him, thought Kobe Bryant was the strongest, and asked him to talk about his feelings.
"I heard that Jordan has been busy with the Bobcats since he left the Wizards, does he still have time to comment on me?" Guo Xu smiled: "It's a pity that Michael doesn't look down on me, I admire his achievements, but we are indeed different styles of players. ”
Guo Xu deliberately mentioned the Wizard, as long as he mentioned this name, Jordan would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't necessarily need to be sarcastic about the other party.
After Jordan's comeback, the Wizards' performance could not be improved, and the owner Pauline exposed the face of a businessman, and Jordan didn't even have a stake in the team, so he couldn't leave if he wanted to.
At the last "summit" held by Jordan and Pauline at the MCI Center, the two completely tore their skins and did not say half a sentence calmly, except for the lack of fists and kicks, accusations and invective filled the room.
Pauline's assertiveness surpassed everyone's imagination, making the meeting completely one-sided, and he didn't even have the patience to listen to Jordan's comments before telling Jordan bluntly that the Wizards would no longer have him as president of basketball. Then, Jordan was blocked out of the tournament with a complete defeat.
After kicking out Jordan, Pauline cleaned the "Jordan Department" within the Wizards, and completed the reorganization of the team's top management in the shortest possible time. After announcing the dismissal of Rob Haggins, assistant general manager, the "Jordan Department's" purge campaign ended in a resounding victory.
Previously, veterans Russell and Oakley had been fired from the Wizards, and even Tyrone Lue, who had replaced Guo Xu alone, was not spared, on the grounds that he always liked to pass the ball to Jordan.
Jordan recently became a minority shareholder in the Bobcats, and he is very attentive to the team.
The venue immediately became lively, and everyone felt that they had dug up big news, because this time Guo Xu was a little aimed at Jordan.
One reporter then asked, "Will you prove to Jordan that you're the best player in the NBA?" ”
"No, you'll never be able to prove you're the best to someone who doesn't like you. I was having dinner with my cousin Jason Statham when I was in Los Angeles and a female fan came to ask for an autograph, but as long as he was his, he wasn't interested in me. She said that Statham is much more handsome than me, and the bald ones are pure masters, how do you think I can prove that I am better than him? ”
There was a burst of laughter in the room, and his example was interesting, Kobe Bryant happened to have a bald head this year......
This time out of the time loop, Guo Xu found that his hair seemed to be fixed like his body, and he could make this kind of joke without the sense of baldness.
Guo Xu smiled, and then said: "Although I can't make Michael look up to me, he can actually use his actions to prove that my strength is not good." It's very simple, he picks a few more rookies that he likes in the Bobcats, cultivates them, and abuses me fiercely every time he plays against the Suns. I believe in his vision, and he will definitely not choose high school students again. ”
There was another burst of laughter in the room, and some people took the lead in applauding. Guo Xu satirized Jordan in a humorous way, you can choose Kwame Brown as the champion, do you think it makes sense to see who you like?
Guo Xu dug a huge hole for Jordan, if he can't choose a good rookie in the Bobcats, many media will definitely remember what Guo Xu said today. Will Jordan draft a good rookie? No kidding, someone with potential can also make him scolded as a waste.
An old man is always chirping crookedly, young people respect you to give you face, and people who are disrespectful to the old deserve respect?
