Chapter 092: Battle of the Wizards (3)
The MIC arena is crowded with people, and it is really impossible to underestimate the popularity of the flying man, although he is old, not everyone can bully this person who has stepped onto the altar. There is not a single player in the league who does not respect him, Maddy, Carter, Iverson, and Kobe Bryant all think about Jordan's heir. But none of these thriving juniors can surpass this. is the ring that later Kobe Bryant has many owners, and the little emperor James has super popularity, but he still can't compare with this.
Charles Barkley, who was sitting on the court and commentator, entered the NBA in the same year as the Flyers, but Jordan was still running on the court for his favorite sport, and Barkley had a halo but did not reach the height of Jordan, and could only watch Jordan from the sidelines.
In the 1984 draft, Olajuwon was the top pick, Jordan was the Tanhua, and Barkley was the fifth to be taken away by the 76ers. After many years of traveling, only Barkley was not crowned, and his fame was thunderous, but he did not have as many honors as Jordan, which could only make this guy who likes to talk nonsense sigh.
"Charles, today is the Wizards vs. the Knicks, I think you must be optimistic about the Knicks, right?" Kenny Smith said to Barkley with a smile.
"Why, why can't I just look at curiosity?" Barkley gave Smith a blank look, and he knew that Smith was talking about Jordan of the Wizards on the court. Jordan, who once debuted with Barkley, was once an opponent in the league, and it is impossible for Barkley to support Jordan today.
Although the underlying meaning is understood by each other, Smith said: "Charles, don't you know, that Chinese teenager from the Knicks had a promise that you didn't keep when you finished the last game. You said you were going to eat the microphone, I think you'll remember it, right? ”
"What a microphone, did that kid get five goals like that!" Barkley looked serious, but when he thought about it, this guy usually had a hippie smile, and now he looked like a child who would not admit his mistakes.
"Okay, okay! Who called you an old bird, that Chinese kid is a rookie! Smith's agitation made Barkley a little uncomfortable.
Barkley, who was already relatively straightforward, immediately came to strength when he heard Smith's words. "If this guy is still the same today, I'll take it right, isn't it just a microphone! Five! Barkley seemed to regret it a little after saying it, of course he knew that this was not difficult for Liang Xiao at all, but the water that spilled out when he said it.
"Alright, now that the game is on, let's take a look at the field!" Smith saw that the cheerleaders on the field had begun to leave the field, and the players were about to play. At the beginning, the wizards' mascots, wizards and wizards, plus some wizards' performance teams, dropped the atmosphere of the arena to the best time.
The first to play were the Knicks players, Liang Xiao looked at the fans in this arena no less than Madison Garden, the atmosphere was extremely hot, and in this atmosphere, the game timing was a kind of enjoyment and a feeling of blood boiling. Next, the Wizards' players came on the court one after another.
With a long tone of DJ on the spot, Michael Jordan and the flyer ran out of the players' tunnel, and his two hands kept high-fiveing the fans in the stands and then high-fived the Wizards players one by one, and suddenly the whole court erupted into a noisy sound.
Liang Xiaodu has set his sights on the flyer, this is the glory of superstars, and old age and injuries can't stop fans from adoring him. Liang Xiao thought that he would have such glory if he was suitable.
"The trapeze is still a trapeze, I didn't expect it to be so popular now!" Smith saw the effect of the Flyers, as if he also felt that he had been welcomed by the fans on the field. In 94 and 95, the Rockets won two championships when Jordan was not on the court, relying on Big Dream and a group of Rockets heroes.
Barkley didn't speak, and at this point he really didn't have anything to say, because he had all Jordans, and Jordan he didn't have.
"Okay, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams now, the Wizards' starters are: center Brandon Haywood, power forward Christian Leitner, small forward Jerry Starkhouse, shooting guard Larry Hughes, point guard Tyronn Lue, and on the Knicks side is center Harrington, big forward Thomas, small front Sprewell, point guard Houston, point guard Easley. Now Michael Jordan is playing as the sixth man and is not in the starting lineup. Smith looked at the data sheet in his hand and said into the microphone.
"Okay, let's take a look at how the Washington Wizards, a team that has mysteriously disappeared like wizards for many years, have performed today, shall we?" Barkley opened his mouth to detract from the Wizards.
At this time, many fans in China are also paying attention to this game.
"Why isn't the Flyer Jordan in the starters, I don't know how the Wizards arranged it?" One fan complained.
"You know what, now Jordan is forty years old, starter? I also want to let him rest more, know no, you are a pseudo-fan! Another fan said.
In Zuo Qiang's dorm room, watching the Wizards' game against the Knicks broadcast by a local station, everyone was constantly discussing.
"Will Liang Xiao be on the opposite side of Jordan in this game?"
"There is a good chance, the position is very same, Jordan striker swings, Liang Xiao is now a point guard, a great chance! Now Jordan is the sixth man of the Wizards, looking at the results of the Wizards, it is estimated that Jordan will start in the future! ”
Seeing that the center circle was about to start jumping, Smith began to explain, "Now the game has officially begun, the Wizards' center Haywood is still a newcomer, Harrington has been working hard in the league for a few years, and the ball was slapped to Houston by Harrington!" ”
Houston took the ball and went straight forward, the defensive Larry Hughes later entered the league's best defensive team, this guy's defense is still very set, watching Houston hold the ball, immediately pasted, two hands constantly moved on Houston's body, eyes staring at the ball, as if he could shoot the ball at any time. Houston is also a long-established figure in the league and is known for his projection, so it's natural that this kind of defense is commonplace.
Holding the ball to the three-point line, shooting, oops, didn't shoot, it can be said that many games since the beginning of the game were the first shot started by Houston, and there is rarely a reason to miss, but in the face of today's Wizards, he didn't score. I don't know if the Wizards have Jordan now, which makes everyone's hearts have a little bit of a change.
In the Ewing era of the Knicks, the Knicks and Bulls were bitter rivals, playing hard in every game. Ewing vs. Jordan is one of the highlights of the two teams, and the current Houston has also been involved in the battle between the two teams.
The ball jumped up and was confiscated by Starkerhouse. Stackhouse was majestic when he was with the Pistons, and he immediately went down with the ball, and did not pass the ball to Tyronn Lue, which is also his habit, playing alone, and rarely the ball came out when it came into his hands.
