Jordan's comeback and return to the NBA may not be a secret to the league's top management, this matter has been planned by Stern for a long time, and the major media have more or less caught some information.

But for the vast majority of ordinary fans, it is a shocking event without warning!

What does Jordan stand for?

The best scorer in NBA history, the founder of the Bulls' three-game championship dynasty, and the only true god in the entire basketball world under the Stern-made movement.

This can be seen from the fact that after Jordan's retirement, the NBA's ratings and attention have plummeted.

And Jordan's comeback is undoubtedly like a bomb suddenly dropped on a calm lake, suddenly exploding, setting off stormy waves.

The whole United States and the whole world are not known to shake.

Overnight, the NBA's attention rose to unprecedented heights, even surpassing football and baseball leagues in the United States.

Jordan's comeback team still chose the Chicago Bulls, which also made Pippen struggle alone, and the Bulls, who are now about to fall out of the playoffs, became the favorites for the 94-95 season overnight!

The strong teams who were originally eyeing this year's championship were dumbfounded, how could this TM kill Chen Biting Gold halfway?

"Michael's ...... Damn it! ”

Even though Jordan has basically not had much contact with basketball during his retirement for two years, and the time for his comeback is in mid-March, when the regular season is about to end, the time to recover and run in with the team is seriously insufficient, but no team dares to underestimate the strength of the Bulls after Jordan's return.

Almost all of the team's coaching staff began to urgently work overtime to begin discussing and developing tactical strategies against the Bulls.

There are also Eastern Conference teams that have begun to study the upcoming regular season schedule, wanting to avoid the possibility of an early encounter with the Bulls in the playoffs as much as possible.

……

Jordan successfully occupied the front page headlines of major newspapers and magazines, completely overshadowing the recently up-and-coming Wang Feng.

In this regard, Wang Feng has long been mentally prepared.

After all, he is just a newcomer who came out of nowhere, no matter how good his performance on the court is, his influence is far from comparable to Jordan, the god of basketball.

At the same time, Wang Feng also knows that Jordan, who has just returned this season, is not enough to become Wang Feng's opponent.

Jordan, who has not been exposed to basketball for two years and lacks systematic training, has visibly weakened.

In his memory, in his debut after his comeback, Jordan was defeated by his old rival Reggie. Miller showed off.

Finally met Jordan who was not in shape, Miller hit hard mercilessly, scoring 28 points on 8-of-18 shooting, while Jordan had no hands, only 7-of-28 shooting, and only scored 19 points on 25% shooting in his debut.

In the remaining 16 games of the regular season, Jordan shot just over 41% from the field and contributed 26.9 points per game.

However, after entering the playoffs, Jordan's form began to recover rapidly, his average points per game increased to 31.5 points, and his shooting percentage also returned to a high level of 48%.

But his Bulls were eliminated 4-2 by O'Neal's Orlando Magic in the second round.

As for the following year, the Bulls brought in rebounding maniac Dennis Brown. Rodman, and played a world-shattering 72-10, and won the championship in the playoffs with an absolutely unbeatable posture all the way to the championship.

The situation may be a little different now.

According to the current situation, it is very likely that the Knicks will take the first place in the East instead of the Magic, and if the Bulls' record is consistent with the original history, then it will be the Knicks who will meet the Bulls in the division semifinals.

In this way, Wang Feng will have the opportunity to play against the god of basketball in the first season of this era, which is not bad.

……

As with the original history, Jordan's debut began the day after his return was announced.

The Bulls played the Pacers away, and the much-anticipated game ended with a result that many people did not expect.

However, after the game, not many people criticized Jordan for playing badly, everyone knows that Jordan has not touched basketball for two years, or that he can play like this without training for so long, and he is worthy of being the god of basketball.

Obviously, the Bulls team after Jordan's return will still need some time to run in and explore.

On the other hand, the Knicks continue to soar.

On March 21, the Knicks defeated the Charlotte Hornets 102-78 at home.

Wang Feng shot 13 of 20, 6 of 10 three-pointers, 8 of 8 free throws, and scored 40 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists.

Perhaps it was Jordan's comeback that made the team's head coach Riley feel the pressure, or it was the pressure brought by Stern and the outside media that forced Riley to make further compromises on the distribution of Wang Feng's possession.

Unconsciously, Wang Feng's ball possession and average number of shots per game have completely equaled Ewing.

Without the suppression of his teammates, Wang Feng's terrifying offensive firepower was vividly and exquisitely displayed in this era of shortened three-point lines.

Wang Feng's range is too long, even when the three-point line is not shortened, he can maintain a stable shooting rate at a distance of more than one meter from the three-point line, let alone the period when the three-point line is shortened.

The 360-degree ultra-long-distance three-point shot without dead angles makes it difficult for any team in the league to adapt, and Wang Feng is not only able to score three points.

Comparable to Grant. Hill's first breakthrough, the physical energy seems to never be exhausted, and he can compete with Barkley's tough physical confrontation, and finally with the blessing from Stern's father (whistle protection), Wang Feng's scoring ability is even more terrifying than Jordan at his peak.

In order to limit Wang Feng's scoring, some teams have begun to carry out trapping tactics against Wang Feng.

On March 23, the Knicks played away against the Denver Nuggets.

In the face of Wang Feng, the Nuggets did not hesitate to use the trap tactic to try to curb Wang Feng's play.

As a result of this, people saw another of Wang Feng's stunts, passing.

91's passing ability, 99's passing awareness, purple ten cents and the organization's core badge, plus a silver fancy passer badge, allow Wang Feng to become a passing master at any time if he wants to.

In the whole game, Wang Feng didn't shoot much, 9 of 14 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 25 points, but he gave 16 assists in a single game and had 0 turnovers!

He had 25 points, 11 rebounds and 16 assists in the game, helping the Knicks easily defeat the Nuggets 114-101.

Wang Feng's ability to assist was really stunned even by Riley.

In his post-match press conference, Riley was blunt.

"Today's Wang is much beyond my imagination, I see the shadow of that extremely familiar old friend in him, that's right, I'm talking about Erwin, although Wang Feng's passing style is different from Erwin, but it is also full of spirituality, and the timing of the pass is just right, I think Wang Feng is fully capable of being a point guard!"

In this regard, Wang Feng calmly told reporters.

"Actually, I've been a point guard for a long time, so I know what a point guard needs to do."

Wang Feng really didn't mean to be modest at all.

Jordan has returned, the ultimate goal of the dynastic terminator is in place, and the time has come for him to take on the challenge!

It is worth mentioning that Jordan, who returned to the league a few days ago, was also asked about Wang Feng.

"I've watched Wang Feng's game, and in fact, as soon as he appeared, he immediately caught my attention, this is a very strong player, especially his three-point shooting ability, which I remember vividly."

"It's a shame that he wasn't in the NBA when I played in front of me, but it's okay that now that I'm back, there are a lot of opportunities to play against him."

Jordan gave Wang Feng a very high evaluation, which is quite rare for Jordan, who has always been arrogant.

If it weren't for Wang Feng, who was already 30 years old, I am afraid that he would have been crowned the strongest Jordan successor at this time.

However, such a nickname will definitely not make Wang Feng happy, after all, his goal is to overthrow Jordan, what does it mean to be Jordan's successor?

Jordan VS Wang Feng, the most powerful newcomer in the league in the near future and the basketball god who has returned from the king, makes everyone look forward to it.

What's more coincidental is that the Knicks and Bulls actually have one game in the rest of the regular season, and on April 16, the Bulls' home court, the two teams will face off for the last time in the regular season.

In the previous three regular season games between the Knicks and the Bulls, the Knicks had the upper hand 2:1, but before Wang Feng joined, Pippen successfully defeated the entire Knicks team in the Christmas War.

Now that both teams are strong, who can be better has aroused great interest and attention from the masses who eat melons.

Before that, both teams have more than a dozen long games, which can also be regarded as a warm-up preparation before the matchup.

……

The Knicks went on to go 10-2 in the next 12 games.

The two games they lost were to the Seattle SuperSonics and the Portland Trail Blazers.

Neither team is the top team in the league, but they are not weak, and it coincided with the Knicks' preparation for the final game against the Bulls, arranging for the main players to take turns to recuperate, so they chose to give up the victory of these two games.

At this time, the Knicks no longer attach so much importance to the victory of the next regular season, because they have already led the Orlando Magic, which is second in the East, by four wins and firmly occupies the first place in the East.

Next, regardless of whether they face off with the Bulls or not, the Knicks only have four games left in the regular season, against the Bucks, Hornets, Celtics and Washington Bullets.

No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to lose the first place in the East.

In other words, the game against the Bulls is also the game that the Knicks want to win in the final serious matchup of the regular season.

On April 16, the Knicks flew to Chicago on a special plane, and at the same time, a large number of reporters and fans from all over the world also focused on it early.

That night, the Chicago Bulls' home arena at Union Center was packed, and a large number of Chicago fans cheered in the stands to cheer for their home team and Jordan.

After nearly a month of returning to games and training, Jordan's form is constantly recovering, becoming more and more like the basketball god before his retirement.

In the last game, the Bulls led by Jordan challenged the Detroit Pistons away, and Jordan shot 12 of 23 from the field, cutting a quasi-triple-double of 29 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists, and was in excellent shape.

Almost all Bulls fans believe that this battle, which has attracted the attention of the whole meter, will definitely end with the Bulls winning!

As a traverser, Wang Feng naturally has no impression of such a game in the regular season.

But not long after the game started, he realized that the Bulls probably won this game.

The reason is very simple, within 5 minutes of the game, on the Knicks' side, Ewing and Starks, the two main scoring points, felt so bad that people couldn't complain.

Ewing started with 1-of-4 and scored just 2 points.

Starks was even more unbearable, scoring a single point on 0-of-3 shooting.

In the face of the imposing Bulls, the Knicks, who obviously have an absolute advantage in the record, played timidly, like a weaker side.

Because of this, before Wang Feng and Jordan played a few rounds, the Knicks were already defeated by the Bulls' continuous offense, and in less than 5 minutes, the Bulls had scored 17 points, while the Knicks only scored 8 points.

Of the Knicks' eight points, 5 of them were scored by Wang Feng, mainly from a long-range shot outside the three-point line and a mid-range pull-up jump shot.

Playing against Jordan for the first time, Wang Feng originally wanted to wait and see, but looking at it like this, if he doesn't exert his strength, the game will lose suspense in a short time.

"Are you coming?"

Seeing that Wang Feng began to take the initiative to ask for the ball, Jordan raised his eyebrows slightly.

At the beginning of the game, Jordan had the same idea as Wang Feng, although he wanted to see Wang Feng's true strength in person, but he was ready to test it first.

So on the Bulls' side, the offense is more carried out by Pippen and Kukoc.

I didn't expect these two people to be so powerful, and they almost crushed the Knicks as soon as they came up.

Now that Wang Feng couldn't wait to take the initiative, Jordan naturally did not hesitate and immediately blocked in front of Wang Feng.

"It's coming, it's coming! Michael vs Wang! ”

Seeing this scene, the audience in the stands became excited, and Coach Zhang and Coach Su, who specially followed the Knicks to the Bulls' home court, were no exception.

This match is also the focus of attention in China.

Jordan's name is also quite well-known in China, and many basketball entry-level fans can not understand the rules of the NBA, but they must not know Jordan's name.

Huaguo actually has players who can directly face Jordan, or Wang Feng, who has been in the limelight recently, everyone wants to know who wins and who loses in the duel between the two.

"It's a nine-time defensive team, and it's one of the few top defenders who can win the best defensive player on the perimeter."

Wang Feng stood outside the three-point line with the ball, looked at Jordan in front of him, and immediately felt a rush of pressure.

Jordan's defense is simply visible to the naked eye, if you want to compare, Wang Feng feels that even Leonard at his peak does not give him a strong sense of pressure on the defensive end as Jordan.

Of course, the psychological effect of the word Jordan on Wang Feng may also have something to do with it, after all, aside from defensive skills, Leonard, who is 2.01 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.21 meters, is far better than Jordan who is 1.98 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.14 meters in terms of static talent.

Which of the two actually has a stronger defense still needs Wang Feng to experience through the game.
