Chapter 38: Confusion

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Seeing that his boss was violated, Rodman was the first to pounce and grab Tony, and Winnington and Pippen followed closely behind to surround Tony.

Of course, the Lakers did not show weakness, and Fisher Hawley and other Lakers players also rushed up, and the two sides fell into a standoff.

Kobe Bryant stepped forward to block Tony and pushed Rodman away with a hard shot.

Jordan also got up from the ground at this time, he didn't say a word, he pulled Kobe Bryant away, and directly punched Tony.

Jordan has been in this league for so many years, and he is naturally not a saint, and he definitely can't bear to be fouled by Tony like this.

"Boy, you're looking for death!"

The scene between the two sides was chaotic, and the referees couldn't stop it at all, Tony was surrounded, naturally he couldn't dodge, and he was punched by Jordan in the face.

Tony was furious, and he immediately fired back.

"No one can shackle me in front of me! Old dog! Tony scolded and threw a punch at Jordan, but Jordan nimbly dodged and Tony's fist slammed into the air.

The missed punch made Tony even angrier, and he struggled to break free of Hawley's block and grabbed Jordan's jersey in one step. Rodman pushed Tony's hand away to prevent Tony from getting close to Jordan, and then Kobe Bryant also knocked Rodman away, and the scene continued to deteriorate.

Finally, Jordan and Tony were pulled away by the referee in the chaos.

The referee unceremoniously gave each of the two men a second-degree technical foul. And Bryant and Rodman also ate a first-degree foul each.

In fact, Tony and Jordan's situation was enough to be sent out, but Jordan, as the first person in the league, will naturally be taken care of by the league, and the league is not good at doing too blatantly, so Tony is also like Jordan, and he has eaten a technical foul.

"Be careful! Brat! Lao Tzu can easily kill you! Jordan stared at Tony viciously, daring to do this to him, this rookie is really bold.

"You can try!" Tony unceremoniously fired back.

Jordan didn't speak again, and such endless trash talk didn't help him.

But Tony's behavior undoubtedly angered him, and he was going to have a good time with Kobe, but then everything was different.

Jordan: He's determined to let these boys bear his wrath.

He's going to destroy the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant bore the brunt of the attack, and he was directly blown up by Jordan.

At the end of the first quarter, Jordan scored 15 points on 6-of-9 shooting, and the Bulls had a six-point lead over the Lakers at 31-25.

Harris threw Tony off the bench for the rest of the game, he didn't care if he would lose in the end, he needed Tony to calm down. Tony was very unconvinced, but he kept his mouth shut at the stern look in Harris's eyes.

"Leave it to me." Kobe gently patted Tony's back and said lightly.

Tony ignored Kobe Bryant, and he buried his head deeply.

He was not convinced! He thought he had done the right thing, and he didn't understand why Harris was looking at him so harshly, as if he shouldn't have done that.

He just hugged Jordan out of the air, but he didn't want to hurt Jordan, and he restrained his strength as much as possible not to hurt Jordan too much.

Not tolerating a dunk on his head is Tony's bottom line, and in that case Ta has no choice but to do so.

And in the face of Jordan's attack, he didn't think there was anything wrong with him fighting back, why did Harris punish him for not being able to play the whole game.

Tony's heart unconsciously generated a resentment.

It's not fair!

From the start of the second quarter, Jordan was on fire.

In the face of Jordan's stormy attack, the Lakers quickly collapsed, and the wrath of the basketball god is not something that such Lakers can withstand.

"These guys from the Lakers were stupid, they chose to provoke Michael, and they paid for it. And the big man named Tony was obviously destroyed by Michael, and he didn't even dare to play in the next game. The on-site commentator of the bull said proudly.

Tony's head, which had been buried deeply, suddenly lifted, the anger in his eyes flashed, and then, his head slowly lowered again.

The game was still going on, but the Lakers players wished that the game could be over early, and they felt as if they had fallen into the abyss in the face of such a brutal Jordan.

Except for Kobe, when everyone lost their fighting spirit, Kobe Bryant was still like a general who fought on the battlefield until there was only one person left.

The breakthrough layup was blocked, it was okay, grabbed the frontcourt rebound and continued to play. If you miss, it's okay, keep shooting in the next round, keep missing, keep shooting.

The young Kobe Bryant is like Don Quixote, who fantasizes about poor chivalry in his heart, charging at the windmill, delusionally thinking that he will become the savior and hero of the Lakers, and using his immature ball skills and tired body to ridiculously launch offenses under Jordan's tough defense again and again.

The commentary is still laughing at his naivety and questioning his prodigal investment, but Kobe Bryant is unstoppable.

81:129

The Lakers lost by 48 points, setting a new record for a season's losses. Jordan hit 21 of 38 shots to score 56 points as he angrily tore the Lakers to shreds.

In contrast, Bryant scored 28 points on 11-of-37 shooting. Jordan didn't give Kobe any more face, he didn't care if his brutality would destroy a young future star, all he wanted was to make the Lakers' ignorance pay the price.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Kobe Bryant didn't speak to anyone, and he walked straight into the players' tunnel without looking back, leaving a lonely back in the cheering fans of Chicago.

I don't know why, looking at the back of Kobe Bryant's departure, Tony's nose turned out to be a little sour.

He knows that Kobe Bryant is not afraid to shoulder the responsibility of the team, nor is he afraid of the ridicule and doubts of the world, but what Kobe hates most is that he has exhausted all his efforts, but he cannot get the results worthy of his efforts.

"If these guys have the courage to challenge me, I hope they still have the courage to face all this when I blow them up." Michael Jordan, who won the game, regained his breezy appearance.

All the media is around the NBA god, and the Lakers are unattended.

Instead of getting on the team bus back to the hotel, Tony chose to stay in the arena and train with Kobe.

During his time on the bench, Tony thought a lot, he resented Harris for not letting him play to help his brother Kobe Bryant, and could only watch Kobe Bryant fight alone below, and he resented that his strength was simply not worthy of his pride.

If he could be strong enough to defend Jordan's dunk, then he wouldn't need to use these ugly tricks to maintain his poor self-esteem, and then maybe that wouldn't have happened.
