Chapter 482: His Own Way of Rule
"I'm sorry to tell you that I'm going to win tonight." Yang Mo smiled very apologetically at Michael Jordan: "I'm sorry, sorry!" ”
Yang Mo's sorry is undoubtedly the highest level of provocation for sodium sulfonate Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan never forgives any opponent's provocation, so he gasped, and then nodded at Yang Mo: "I accept your apologies, but the victory is mine." ”
Michael Jordan didn't glare and grit his teeth like Kobe Bryant, but his anger could be easily felt.
However, for Yang Mo, he wished that Michael Jordan would enter a state of anger, because no matter how strong Michael Jordan is, as long as he has too many obsessions in his heart, there will be conflicts between the individual and the team. In comparison, of course, a whole Bulls team is more terrifying, after all, basketball is a competition of five people, even if he is a basketball god, he can't do without the help of his teammates.
Yang Mo thought that the angry Michael Jordan would go into singles mode, just like his successor, Kobe Bryant. But the result disappointed Yang Mo, Michael Jordan did not enter the solo game after returning to the halfcourt, but actively interspersed, using his strong containment ability to forcibly destroy the Jazz's system defense, and then his other teammates got the scoring opportunity very easily. Soon, Ron Hubble received his pass and easily threw the ball into the Nets in the face of an unguarded three-point line.
Michael Jordan's head is very clear, he knows very well what is better for the team. Maybe Kobe Bryant's scoring ability is not much different from Michael Jordan's, but his ability to judge the overall situation. For the ability to read the game, Jordan threw him at least five blocks away. That's why he's so good. And there will always be only one reason to hope for the second place on the NBA's all-time scoring guard list.
Jordan is so calm, and Yang Mo is not far behind. Yang Mo's ability to read the game is no worse than Michael Jordan, so after he returned to the half, he did not fall into singles. Instead, after blocking and dismantling with Karl Malone, he quickly went down, attracted Rodman's close defense and passed the ball to Karl Malone behind him, who faced Scott Pippen who was misplaced on defense. Naturally, it was very easy to hit mid-range shots.
Yang Mo and Michael Jordan both chose to let their teammates solve the battle, and they both turned into electric eels in a school of sardines, constantly activating their teammates and facilitating their teammates' scoring.
In this case, the scores of the two teams are very anxious and slowly rising. Because Yang Mo hit the Bulls in the opening game, Salt Lake City, which was playing at home, was able to maintain a five- to six-point lead.
That lead lasted until a minute before the break. Just when the minutes run out and the time is measured in seconds. Michael Jordan, who had been holding back, suddenly launched a fierce attack, he first steals Karl Malone's basketball through the bag, and rushes to the front court to hit a three-pointer. Then he took advantage of Russell's mid-range shot miss, grabbed the rebound and then quickly broke through the restricted area, causing Ostertag's foul and playing 2+1.
In less than twenty seconds. Michael Jordan turned the tide of five points behind to a one-point lead.
At this moment, Yang Mo really understood what a ruler was.
Michael Jordan can go the game without shooting, but when he wants to score, he can't stop it. You can only watch him throw the ball into the basket and the opponent is powerless to stop it.
That's the power of dominance! LeBron James, known as the first person in the league, is really weak compared to Jordan. James' scoring ability in crunch time is not even as good as Nate Robinson.
Michael Jordan showed his dominance, and Yang Mo's heart couldn't help but beat with it. Almost in an instant. He decides how the next ball will be played.
He dribbled the ball back to the half, and in the face of Scott Pippen's defense, he quickly bent down, lowered his head and made a quick breakthrough, which instantly opened up a step away, but he did not break through on the momentum, but made a sudden emergency stop, and suddenly took a step back, which caught Scott Pippen off guard.
Taking advantage of Scott Pippen's surprise, Yang Mo immediately prepared a step-back jumper, but just as he was about to lift the basketball, Michael Jordan actually came out of the diagonal stab, opened his arms and tried to slap Yang Mo's basketball down.
Seeing this, Yang Mo hurriedly gave up shooting. He wanted to pass the ball but found that Jordan completely blocked all the possibility of passing, which looked premeditated. Seeing that Scott Pippen was about to be clamped up, Yang Mo immediately made a decision, jumped high, and smashed the ball on Pippen's shoulder...... Boom! The basketball slammed into Scott Pippen's shoulder, and the basketball flew out quickly...... Drip! The referee blows the whistle to signal the Jazz to possession.
"John, we had long guessed that you would attack with a vengeance." Scott Pippen smiled at Yang Mo and said, "You can never be Michael Jordan, he always creates opportunities, and you follow the same trend." ”
Although Scott Pippen's words were full of sarcasm, Yang Mo thought about it carefully and felt that what he said was very reasonable. I was indeed influenced by Michael Jordan, and when I saw him score so dominantly, I couldn't help but throb in my heart. This is indeed Handan toddler's nondescript. How can any ruler succeed by imitation?
The reason why Kobe Carter and they can't catch up with Michael Jordan all their lives is because they have been imitating Michael Jordan's handling all their lives. However, there is only one Michael Jordan, and no matter how good they are, they are only second, and they will never reach the first.
In an instant, Yang Mo actually had a feeling of epiphany. His heart suddenly brightened, but his mouth didn't spare Scott Pippen: "Then you didn't guess that I would hit you on the shoulder with a ball?" ”
Yang Mo's words were also full of pinprick, and it was clear that Pippen could not respond to this rhetorical question, as if he had said to Carl Malone that 'the postman doesn't work on Sundays'.
Very quickly, Russell re-sent the ball to Yang Mo. After Yang Mo received the ball, he did not continue to force the attack, but summoned Karl Malone to come out, used his body, made a quick breakthrough, and threw the ball into the sky after attracting the bag clamp into the penalty area, and Russell, who ran back on the other side, jumped high and smashed the ball into the basket.
"I'm not going to follow in your footsteps, I'm going to have my own way of dominating the game." Yang Mo said directly to Michael Jordan.
"It's my business." Michael Jordan's mouth pursed, and he looked like he didn't care.
But in fact, he was surprised in his heart. Over the years, too many people have challenged him, but many people are challenging Jordan in the way of Jordan, isn't this self-defeating? You must know that Jordan's rules were created by Jordan himself, how can you possibly defeat the creator?
Yang Mo doesn't care if there is a contrast between Jordan's surface and his heart, he only knows that he must limit Jordan with tough defense, and he entangled Michael Jordan in half the court. Constantly using his body and his speed to collide with Jordan, Jordan's physical fitness is very good, but he is old after all, under the impact of Yang Mo's body like a wild beast, he is somewhat unbearable.
Yang Mo adhered to Jordan like kraft candy, and used his body to hit him every now and then. In this case, Jordan simply stopped holding the ball, and he created space for the team by constantly running, but in the end, Pippen's hand was a little worse, and an eighteen-foot basketball was shot short by him, smashed in front of the basket, and was finally picked off by Yang Mo in front of Dennis Rodman.
Watching Yang Mo grab the rebound in front of him, Rodman couldn't help but be a little curious: Can this guy also guess where the basketball lands? Obviously, he just stood farther than me, but he was able to predict the landing point in advance?
In a sense, Yang Mo can be called a scaled-down version of Dennis Rodman, and he is even more sensitive than Rodman in rebounding. So, it's not unusual for him to steal Rodman's rebounds.
Back in the half, Yang Mo once again chose to break through the ball, but this time he did not distribute the ball to the penalty area, but gave it to Hornacek outside the three-point line, and Hornacek was really competitive and hit three points steadily.
At this time, the second quarter of the game also ended with this three-point whistle. The Jazz led by four points heading into the second half.
Back in the locker room, Coach Sloan focused on defense, believing that Russell and Yang Mo should wrap up Michael Jordan in the second half. But Yang Mo gave a different answer to this strategy: "Jordan will leave it to me alone, Russell should defend Ron Harbble, we should break up their triangle tactics first, so that they can't find the rhythm of the team's offense, which is more beneficial to our victory." As for Michael Jordan, I'm going to make it difficult for him with my tenacious defense, and even if I can't stop him from scoring, I'm going to make it incredibly difficult for him to score. ”
"Can you really defend Michael alone?" Sloan said with some concern: "You know, once Michael Jordan goes berserk, his fighting power can surpass the whole team." ”
"I'm not going to let him take what he wants." Yang Mo replied firmly.
"Well, Michael Jordan will be handed over to you. Russell, you're going to deal with Ron Harbour, you're going to block his passes, you'd rather let him shoot than let him pass the basketball inside. Sloan turned to Russell.
As soon as he finished saying this, Yang Mo continued to add: "You can let Ron Hubble pass the ball to Michael Jordan, but you must not let him pass the ball to Scott Pippen." We're going to pull up the deficit in the third quarter and then reap the win in the fourth. Your performance is crucial! ”
"Hmm." Russell nodded heavily, he was confident. As a defensive giant, although he can't defend Michael Jordan, he is still confident if he wants to defend Ron Harbble in a targeted manner.
After Sloane laid out the outside defensive strategy, he then focused on explaining the use of blocking and pick-and-roll tactics. In his explanation, Yang Mo benefited a lot, since he joined professional basketball, he has never received such a college tactical teaching.
