I don't know when Jerry Stackhouse became the first choice of the Wizards.

Because when he has the ball, he has a higher grasp than Jordan.

However, Yu Fei didn't care about Starkhouse, he went to Jordan every time.

Jordan's score against him stayed at 2 points, while Yu Fei's score through the position and call block call Jordan continued to rise.

Not counting the score in the first quarter, Yu Fei has already scored 20 points in the second quarter.

One minute before the end of the first half, Yu Fei easily crossed Jordan's defense and flew to the basket.

Stackhouse came over to help defend him, and he wanted to prove one thing, Jordan couldn't limit Yu Fei, he could, even if it was through the help defense.

But he's not a defensive master, and that's the biggest difference between the Jordan successor and the original Jordan in the post-Jordan era, where North Carolina mass-produced Jordan successors — these offensive machines that are forced to become Jordan's successors tend to only attack rather than defend.

Stackhouse's help defense not only didn't interfere, but also caused him a foul.

"Jerry! You've been playing professional basketball for eight years and can't even do a damn good defense? Jordan was furious.

Stackhouse glared at Jordan with resentment, and he realized that no matter what he did, he could not satisfy the high-flying senior.

He's not defending well, but why is he messing up here? Aren't you wiping your ass for Senior Jordan yet?

"How fresh, the defensive loopholes can actually blame a person who failed to complete the task of assisting the defense, who gave you the courage?" Yu Fei sneered, "It can't be your six championships, right?" ”

Jordan said, "There's nothing wrong here. ”

"Indeed, but 23 to 2." Yu Fei: This is an additional penalty after counting.

Jordan's face froze.

He didn't just score 2 points. In fact, he has now scored 14 points, but Yu Fei is right. He only scored two points against the fly.

Then, the penalty was hit.

Now, the score on the court is 40-59, and the Bucks lead the Wizards by 19 points on the road.

Yu Fei scored 23 points in the first quarter and 38 points in the half, which can't help but remind people that he scored a career-high 56 points when he first faced the Wizards at the beginning of the season.

With this momentum, it is possible to refresh new career highs.

"Jerry, how many times have I said that your mission is to help Michael, what are you doing?"

Collins didn't notice that Starkerhouse's mood was changing.

Stackhouse, who was supposed to pass the ball to Jordan, sprinted inside at that moment.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, substitute Devin George was unable to stop him.

As a result, the moment Stackhouse entered the box, Anthony Mason stopped him from the air like a bully.

The moment the body made contact, Mason's foot hit Starkerhouse's inner thigh hard during the jump.

Stark House screamed.

Mason was whistled for a foul, while Stackhouse lay on the ground and howled, and there is nothing more difficult for a basketball player than a torn or broken knee cartilage injury than a groin injury.

A strong athlete can continue to play with a hamstring strain, but a groin injury can leave a person in a bind, producing intense pain close to the abdomen, inner thighs and genitals*, and that terrible sensation is enough to take 99% of people off their lives.

With less than 20 seconds left in the first half, Karl will be replaced by a rest.

Collins saw Stackhouse walk to the bench in pain, and instead of paying attention to his injury, Collins expressed displeasure with his offensive options: "Jerry, what are you doing? Our tactics are"

"Fuck you!" Stackhouse gets out of control, cursing Collins like a thug.

At this moment, he became unreasonable, leaving Collins dumbfounded.

People saw Starkerhouse, which only existed in legends and never saw its true face. Since entering the NBA in 1995, Stackhouse has played with two teammates, one of whom is on the Bucks' bench.

Christian Leitner is not surprised: "He's just that. ”

Stackhouse thinks he's put in the effort he put in for the team in a desperately painful situation, but Jordan isn't satisfied, and Collins doesn't show any empathy and compassion, which ignites his anger and makes him extremely angry.

His teammates tried to reassure Stackhouse, but the situation was out of control, he was howling, and a panicked Collins muttered helplessly, saying he just wanted to help the team get better.

Just when everyone was worried that Stackhouse would make a more aggressive move (attacking the people around him or the coaching staff), he turned and walked to the players' tunnel.

The MCI let out a shrill boo.

Angry fans are like, "This is the team I'm rooting for?" ”

At that moment, Yu Fei changed his mind.

He stood up and said to Carl, "George, I'm going to play the second quarter." ”

Karl shrugged and said, "Whatever you want." ”

Stackhouse brought two free throws to the Wizards, and Jordan, who was in dire need of scoring, naturally took on the responsibility of the free throws.

He scored both free throws.

42 to 59

The first half was coming to an end, but many were still basking in the storm of Starkerhouse's rampage.

That would undoubtedly be a PR disaster that the Wizards would need to face after the game.

To be sure, the public won't get any insider information.

Yu Fei wasted time on the outside, and Jordan, who took the initiative to defend him, didn't say a word.

Then, in the last few seconds, Yu Fei dribbled the ball, started, made an emergency stop, pulled the ball down his hip and stepped back to make a jumper.

The moment the red light came on, Yu Fei, who had a burst of hands, could score by feeling even if he didn't throw Jordan's defense away.

"Huh!"

42-61, the end of the first half.

ABC played Yu Fei's half-court stats: 17 of 22 shots, 40 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Of course, they also "thoughtfully" played Jordan's stats as a comparison: 16 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists on 5-of-18 shooting.

The audience cheered for Yu Fei.

The sound was stronger than it was at the beginning.

The Wizards' disappointing performance compared to Yu Fei's extremely dominant performance caused a large number of fans in the stadium to turn against him.

Increasingly, they want to know why the team traded Yu Fei.

This man who brought the team into the playoffs with Jordan and Hamilton both being reimbursed is a testament to his quality and potential, so why trade him?

The support for Fly was mixed with dissatisfaction with Jordan and the management, which made MCI fans suddenly turn the home court belonging to the Wizards into an away game.

When Yu Fei walked into the aisle, they shouted MVP.

This scene naturally fell into the eyes of Wizards owner Abbie Boleyn.

He suddenly discovered that Yu Fei not only continued to improve in his second season, but also accumulated a good popularity just by his performance in his rookie season. Especially when the Wizards team under Jordan made fans deeply disappointed, fans became more and more aware of Yu Fei's preciousness.

Then, the Wizards actually traded this man who could have rewritten the history of the Wizards?

Pauline traded Yu Fei for the short-term economic effects that Jordan could bring, and now he is furious that he has lost the long-term economic effects that he could have squeezed out of Yu Fei.

What did I do?

No. It's not me, it's not me who traded him!

Bolin's bloodshot eyes contained terrible rage.

Susan O'Marie, the vice president of the Wizards, has seen Pauline like this, and when there is a scandal with a Wizards player, when the Wizards have a serious loss, when the cats and dogs around Jordan rant speak out to his tolerant owner in front of the media, the demonic Polin will appear.

However, at this moment, Polymbio Marie was furious with any demonic form of Polin he had ever seen.

Omarie wanted to say that she had foreseen tonight, but she wouldn't. Pauline knew he was missing something, but he still had to walk through the final minutes with Jordan. It's just that, before that, he needs to do a period of psychological construction to comfort himself.

In the second half of the game, Jerry Stackhouse did not come back.

The Wizards had to take the loss, leaving Jordan and Cassel to lead a team that was already scrapped.

Yu Fei found that the Wizards continued to let Jordan come to play against him.

This seems to be what Jordan meant.

If he is no longer in opposition to Yu Fei, it means that he throws and admits defeat.

Jordan couldn't accept this, even though he had already been blown up on the court.

This personality may have helped him succeed in the past, but putting him in the present will only make things more and more difficult to manage.

Because Yu Fei is not a person who accepts it when he sees it.

You put a face over and he will keep that face and then backhand you will hit the other face.

In the first offensive round of the second half of the Bucks, Yu Fei dribbled in, and Jordan's defense was thrown off from the start.

Under the basket, Jasidi White, who started again, couldn't block Yu Fei's throw.

"Bang!"

"27 to 2."

Yu Fei said.

This difficult night looks far from over.

Yu Fei's defense around the front made it difficult for Jordan to receive the ball, and Cassel had to start from scratch.

Fortunately, the alien is a veteran point guard with both individual offense and playmaking attributes, and he assists White to eat cake when Jordan is not involved in the tactics.

Yu Fei didn't immediately hold the ball and attack.

For more than a minute, Yu Fei didn't take the ball, just ran and covered his teammates on the court.

Suddenly, he noticed that Jordan's defense had fallen behind.

It's impossible for an old thing to run as much as he does and still keep an eye on people.

Yu Fei took advantage of the situation to pull outside the three-point line, and the ball passed out from the inside.

Jordan's defense was not timely, and Yu Fei made a three-point shot.

"Huh!"

"30 to 2."

Yu Fei no longer talked superfluous trash talk, and reporting the number was like a routine.

The fact that he behaved so indifferently made the humiliating nature of the whole process even more intense.

Jordan kept running and took advantage of the cover to catch the ball.

But what about catching the ball? Yu Fei won't let him score.

Jordan still needs to face the Fly's defense.

Yu Fei has always only had three moves to treat Jordan.

Close-fitting, hard, interfere.

A year on the same team has given him a good understanding of Jordan's habits, and he also knows that Wizards Dan will be extremely ugly as long as he can't find his shooting touch on the night of the game.

Because his team doesn't play fast break very much.

Even if Nash and Curry come to this team together, they have to honestly accompany his old man to fight positional battles.

Don't ask him why he bothered to do this, ask is to revive the 90s style, he is obliged.

He didn't feel good tonight, or rather, he had a good hand in the second quarter, but he was disturbed by Yu Fei.

Since then, he hasn't found a rhythm.

Constantly shooting and constantly hitting iron, Jordan's mentality has deteriorated, and even the offense is no longer rigorous.

A loose offensive approach will make a lot of mistakes.

For a player of Jordan's age, there is no margin for error in losing physical fitness, and once there is a flaw, he will be caught and beaten by a young man like Yu Fei who does not respect the elderly.

Jordan's two consecutive attacks were out-of-bounds by Yu Feigai.

"Where's your feint?"

"You don't think it's 1983, do you?"

Yu Fei's ruthless trash talk is like an executioner's knife, cutting Jordan's pride and self-esteem.

How can Jordan, who is struggling to survive offensively, on the defensive end?

Yu Fei hit with his body back, 32 to 2.

Yu Fei broke through the basket with a high position. 34 to 2.

Yu Fei shook him up, causing a shooting foul and scoring both free throws, 36-2.

Finally, Yu Fei made a mistake under the Wizards' bag.

As a result, Sprewell instantly made a tactical foul on the Wizards' player.

Back in the frontcourt positional battle, Jordan was passed after being defended by Yu Fei, and Kassel shot from the outside.

Yu Fei quickly catches the ball and dunks.

Halfway through the third quarter, the margin was stretched to 30 points.

Doug Collins desperately pleaded for a timeout.

Missed opportunities for fast breaks, and positional battles fought so ugly, what else can be done to make this game end decently?

Collins forced himself to forget about Starkerhouse, but an even more terrible situation occurred during this pause.

Sam Cassel, who was very unhappy with the way he played, complained to Jordan: "Wake up, Michael, we can't play like this!" ”

Another said: "We had to run, we had a chance, but the ball was moving too slowly!" ”

"Damn, is Michael going to fight like this?" The voice was soft, and no one would say that to Jordan in person.

"We could have fought back, we had a good time!"

"Don't shoot, we should hit the basket!"

“！ @@#！ ￥”

After a few seconds, Jordan, who couldn't bear it anymore, roared, "Shut up, calm the fuck for me!" Keep passing the ball and slow down! ”

Jordan's cries always worked, but today, his deterrent effect lasted only a few seconds, and the players continued to complain and blame each other. Collins eventually interrupted them and redesigned the tactics to bring on Kwame Brown for Jasidy White to keep the players focused.

Collins' tactic was this: Michael catches the ball and shoots.

No one was surprised, the scene was lifeless.

At the end of the timeout, Collins shouted to himself, "We can do it!" ”

Luckily, Jordan did, and he finally broke through in front of Yu Fei, breaking a one-and-a-half-quarter scoring drought and bringing the two-game score ratio to 36-4.

Yu Fei didn't waste much time.

The Wizards continued to flank him, however, this time they failed.

His feint shook off Bobby Simmons, who was trying to help Jordan, then jumped up, drew a three-point foul on the two-man defense, and then forced a shot.

"Huh!"

"Four-point hit! Frye Yu made a four-point shot under the bag guard! ”

Yu Fei stared at Simmons playfully and asked, "When did you stop me?" ”

Simmons was speechless.

As for Jordan, Yu Fei only had one sentence: "40 to 4." ”

After hitting the free throw, Yu Fei's total score had reached 55 points five minutes before the end of the third quarter.

But he still only focuses on the confrontation with Jordan.

Those numbers hit, insulted, and hurt Jordan far more than anything else.

No one knows how much of an impact this game will have on Jordan's legacy as a professional basketball player, and for all those who have watched it, the images of the Bulls jersey, the aerial switch on the Lakers, the three-point record for the Trail Blazers after shaking their shoulders, the Barkley shot against the Suns, the Father's Day championship against the SuperSonics, the flu battle against the Jazz, and the shooting of the century in '98 have all been blurred.

In its place was Yu Fei's brutal domination of Jordan.

The reason is simple: people tend to remember best what they saw last.

On the Wizards' coaching staff, no one cares more about Jordan than John Bach other than Collins.

He spent eight years as an assistant coach with the Bulls, and he vividly remembers that if there was one thing that bothered young Jordan, it was that one day in the destined future, when he became weakened by age and could no longer run and jump like he was running, he could fall into an awkward position, like the 76ers' "Dr. J" Julius Irving.

Bird laughed at Irving on a terrible night, trash with him, tore his defense in half with offense, and punctually reported the scoring numbers for both sides — yes, just like Yu Fei tonight.

So, the legend, who had never lost his temper in public, was enraged and threw a fist at Bird.

Perpetrators usually pay the price, and Jordan saw Bird in his later years wriggling around the court dragging his crippled body, and then violently retaliated against those he could handle when he was younger, including Jordan's teammate Scottie Pippen. When Pippen limited Bird to just 8 points and himself 24 points in the game, the vengeful Pippen mocked Bird for being "really just a normal player now".

That scene touched Jordan deeply, and as a man who also likes to be violent on the court, he didn't want to end up like Bird, so he said to Bach at the time: "If you see signs of my decline one day, you must tell me." ”

It's not going to happen to you, Michael.

John Bach remembers that he had replied to Jordan 11 years ago.

At this moment, Yu Fei dribbled to the basket, and Jordan, who was not shaken off, wanted to block it with his body, and was finally knocked to the ground.

Yu Fei is like a tank to dunk and score.

That was before the end of the third quarter, Yu Fei faced Jordan's last attack.

"45 to 4."

The tragedy of Julius Owen and Larry Bird was finally repeated in Jordan.

Is this providential? No, that's Jordan's inevitability.

A man who shouldn't have come back has returned, and the twilight he brought with him is bound to affect everyone.

A person like Yu Fei will not let his short life be wasted by this kind of dull old man, this twilight belongs to yesterday, belongs to tonight, belongs to the wizard, but not to him, he will only take a deep breath, suck all the twilight in, and then exhale it, and then they are garbage.

It's like Jordan lying on the ground.

It's all rubbish!

After that, Yu Fei and Jordan (due to injury) were replaced.

In the fourth quarter, the Bucks, who already led by 38 points, did not need to let Yu Fei return to the court.

But George Carr considered that Yu Fei scored 60 points in the third quarter, and if Nu worked hard, he might be able to break through the 70 or even 80 point mark.

As a result, Yu Fei looked at Carl with an eager face and said something that made the other party speechless: "I'm tired." ”

But Carl didn't think Yu Fei was pretending to beep at all.

Because Yu Fei played the first three quarters. Therefore, even if he doesn't play in the fourth quarter, he has already played 36 minutes tonight, and playing the first three quarters with that kind of offensive and defensive concentration will undoubtedly be exhausting, and Carl believes that Yu Fei is really tired.

The key, though, is definitely on Jordan.

Jordan won't play again.

Therefore, Yu Fei felt that there was no need to play again.

In the end, Yu Fei did not return to the field.

Final: 131-95, the Bucks scored the highest single-game score of the season in the last game with the Wizards this season, and buried the Wizards' playoff hopes in one fell swoop, Yu Fei's play was even more shocking, scoring 60 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks in the third quarter.

Since Wilt Chamberlain's 100th Percent Night, Yu Fei was the second man to score 60 points in the third quarter.

As Bill Wharton said after the game: "In 20 years, the players who played in this game may have all retired, but this game will not be discussed until 200 years from now." It is eternal. ”

Post-match interview

"We knew how important this game was to Frye, so our tactic was to give him free play, and I knew he was going to do something crazy but I didn't expect it to be so crazy. OMF***G！ George Carr on Yu Fei's crazy performance.

"I don't think he'll ever walk out of that deal for the rest of his life." - Ratriel Sprewell on Yu Fei's motivation.

"I don't have much to say, tonight belongs to Fry." - Ray Allen refuses to talk about his performance.

"I feel like you can really tell who's worth following by a game, and I'll admit that most people will follow MJ because of his six championships, but I'm more cheesy, and I'll follow guys who can score 60 points in three quarters and refuse to score more points in garbage time." —Anthony Mason in a speech.

"This is our internal affair and we have no comment." —Doug Collins refuses to comment on the collapse of Stackhouse.

'The season isn't over yet, we have to play every game after that.' - Doug Collins on the rest of the season.

"I'm sure Michael will have a beginning and an end." - Doug Collins ambiguously responded to questions about whether Jordan would retire on this occasion.

"It was Frye who led us to the playoffs last year, so you shouldn't ask me what I think about it. I was a spectator of the game until the end and I didn't get a little bit of playing time until the end. But, if I were Fry, I would hate him even more" – Kwame Brown on Yu Fei's performance.

"As crazy as Frye is tonight, I don't think anyone will be surprised, right?" - Jasidi White copes with media cross-examination with ease.

(Michael Jordan and Jerry Stackhouse were absent from the post-game press conference)

"Fry, has this game lightened your hatred?"

"I don't hate"

"You've said before that it's love and hate that sustains you to give it your all here."

"Don't misinterpret my words, we must love specific people as well as hate specific people. It has nothing to do with it, my mom lives here, she likes it, and I like it. ”

Everyone knows who Yu Fei hates, so the reporter tacitly asked: "There is news that Michael has a serious knee sprain, which means that tonight is likely to be his last game for the player, how do you feel about this?" ”

"Oh, that's a good thing, it's better without him,"

Yu Fei's words came to an abrupt end, and reporters were used to his aggressiveness towards Jordan.

However, Yu Fei's words were not finished.

"I'm very happy to be able to do the retirement ceremony for him myself." Yu Fei's tone was calm, his expression was indifferent, and he couldn't even see the slightest edge in his eyes, but no one doubted his sincerity, just as he said in his last sentence, "This is what he deserves." ”

Martin Luther King, Jr., the hero of black America, once said that it is not the attack of the enemy that is to be remembered, but the silence of the friend.

Presumably, Dr. King has understood from personal experience that the enemy's bullet is deadly, and the silence of his friend is not worth mentioning.

Today, Yu Fei fired the last bullet against Jordan, who was in service.

He looked like he had completed his revenge, but what people saw on his face was more of an unfinished emotion.

He had given Jordan all the revenge and riposte, but he was not satisfied in the slightest.

He may never be satisfied.

Because revenge on Jordan is just a mid-season episode, he has more important things to do in the upcoming playoffs.
