"It looks like Michael can still rule the alliance now." When the first quarter of the game between the Pacers and the Wizards ended, looking at the scores of the two teams and the statistics of the players on the court, Michaels was also excited at this time. In the first quarter of the game, Jordan shot 6 of 11, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 16 points in a single quarter, in addition to 4 rebounds and 2 assists, just looking at Jordan's performance on the court, it is hard to imagine that this is a 38-year-old veteran, in the first half of the first quarter, Jordan pulled the rod after various breakthroughs, and even completed a dunk, and his body showed no signs of aging at all.

"This alliance is not the same alliance it was a few years ago." Looking at Michaels' excited expression, Magic Johnson shook his head and said he didn't agree with Michaels' words. The Pacers and Wizards were tied at 28 in the first quarter, and the two teams seemed to be evenly matched, but Magic Johnson knew that the Pacers were firmly in control of the situation on the court from start to finish. And Meng Xu, the leader of the Pacers, performed no worse than Jordan in the first game, and Meng Xu also scored 17 points and 5 rebounds in the first quarter of the game.

At the same time, Jordan's physical strength is now obviously not as good as before, and in the first half of the first quarter, Jordan's pull-up layups after various breakthroughs were extremely coquettish. But in the second half of the game, Jordan didn't break through once, and in order to save physical strength, he began to shoot constantly in the middle and long distances, and at the same time, the defensive intensity against Meng Xu also decreased significantly. On the one hand, Jordan who is not in shape, and on the other hand, Meng Xu, who has begun to enter the peak, Jordan is afraid that he can't even pass Meng Xu's hurdle now, how can he rule this alliance? And this league now not only has Meng Xu, but also O'Neal, Duncan, Kobe, and other superstars who are at their peak, or have begun to enter the peak.

"Erwin, you're so pessimistic, you're jealous of Michael, you must be jealous, you must be jealous." After hearing Magic Johnson's words, Michaels first showed disdain for Magic Johnson, and then had a very dark speculation that Magic Johnson said this out of jealousy.

Just when Michaels was arguing with the magician, Meng Xu, who had already sat on the bench, took the towel handed over by the staff and looked at his teammates around him. Because of his own score with Jordan in the first quarter, the other players of the Pacers did not get too many opportunities, especially Reggie Miller, who is now even more unhappy, and was scored 16 points in a single quarter by his sworn rival Jordan, who is already 38 years old, and Reggie Miller's unhappiness at the moment can be imagined. Originally, when he left the game, Meng Xu thought that Larry Bird would spray himself or criticize himself euphemistically like Popovich, but Larry Bird not only did not do this, but patted Meng Xu's shoulder with a smile.

At the start of the second quarter, both teams fielded bench lineups, led by Jermaine O'Neal and Al Harrington on the Pacers' side, while Bobby Simmons, a second-round pick drafted this year, also got a chance to play. On the Wizards' side, this season's champion pick Kwame Brown also got the first chance to play in his career, but the champion Lang didn't look very good, and Jermaine O'Neal was excited when he played, and it looked like he wanted to have a few tricks with the champion.

Sure enough, after Jermaine O'Neal played, he was very excited, in the first round, he directly faced Kwame Brown, Jermaine O'Neal, who looked a little thin, when facing Kwame Brown, he had an absolute advantage, and Kwame Brown, who was extremely brutal in defense in the high school league, now has no room to play at all, and it is okay to score a few consecutive goals by Jermaine O'Neal on the offensive end, when it is his turn to play Jermaine O'Neal, it is either a mistake or Jemmaine O'Neal who uses his experience advantage, I don't have a temper to defend myself.

"Kwame doesn't have the slightest advantage over Jermaine." Originally, Michaels wanted to directly say that Kwame Brown was a parallel import, but after seeing Jordan with an iron face on the sidelines, the words that had already reached his mouth were swallowed raw by Michaels.

"This is a common problem for high school players, who have not been trained in the NCAA, and after entering the NBA, they are not well adapted to the intensity of this game." With the development of the NBA, more and more talented high school students directly enter the league, although their growth results are not the same, but their growth trajectory is similar, from Garnett, Kobe, Maddy, after they first entered the league, they need a season or even several seasons to adapt to this high-intensity game rhythm, and Kwame Brown is obviously no exception.

After thinking about it, Michaels really said so, so Michaels just nodded and didn't say anything.

Unlike Magic Johnson, who thinks it is normal, Jordan, who handpicked Kwame Brown, is indeed very dissatisfied with Kwame Brown's performance at the moment, Jordan doesn't need potential stocks now, Jordan hopes that Kwame Brown will be like Duncan, as soon as he enters the league, he will form an available combat force, and even grow into a superstar to assist himself, but at present, Kwame Brown is obviously unqualified, and even an inside line like Jermaine O'Neal can't handle it, how can you expect you to single out Duncan and beat O'Neal.

。。。。。。

"Michael is so impatient." Watching the Wizards call a timeout and replace Kwame Brown, who had just played 3 minutes, Larry Bird, who was sitting next to Meng Xu, looked at Jordan in the distance, and also shook his head, a rookie, if he makes a mistake, replacing him will ruin him sooner or later.

"If Kwame Brown could play in the NCAA for two years, maybe it would be a lot better, his talent is completely fine, he really has the potential to be the next Duncan, it's a shame." Before the start of this game, Meng Xu did a lot of homework, including inquiring about Jordan, and the ability of Champion Lang Kwame Brown, at first when he saw Kwame Brown's 98 physical talent and A+ potential, Meng Xu was really startled, but when he heard Anna say that Kwame Brown was wasting talent throughout his career, Meng Xu could only keep saying that it was a pity, he had the talent that countless people dreamed of, but he couldn't develop and use it, isn't it a pity?

"The first rookie in the first round, at the same time, it is also a mountain of pressure, I hope this little guy will not be crushed." Kwame Brown played 3 minutes, 0 of 4 shots, 0 points, 1 rebound, 2 turnovers, if he doesn't perform better next, then you can imagine how the media will hack him tomorrow.
