God of NBA point guards

Chapter 220
In the second hall of the press conference of the United Center, the Pistons' post-game press conference site, the media has already crowded the hall.

"There are so many people!" Sun Zhenping sighed.

"If you kill the bull this time, Xiao Zhou will definitely be famous all over the world." Zhang Lili said excitedly.

"Will you become a superstar?" Sun Zhenping asked excitedly.

"Absolutely. As long as you kill Michael Jordan, you will definitely become a superstar." Zhang rationally smiled excitedly.

"Crack clap..."

At this time, Zhou Quan, Joe Dumars, and Isiah Thomas entered the hall, and the cameras and cameras of the media were all aimed at them and shot wildly.

After Zhou Quan answered a few questions, he encountered a problem. A reporter from the New York Times asked, "Iron Fist, last year it was the British actress Catherine, this year it was French Rose Christina, so who do you plan to be with next year? You Do you like to hunt Hollywood?"

Zhang Lili and Sun Zhenping couldn't help but feel worried when they saw foreign journalists targeting Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan smiled and said, "Mr. Reporter, I know you are jealous of me. You don't need to deny it. I understand your psychology very well."

"Pfft!"

Many people laughed.

The reporter was also embarrassed.

Zhou Quan said again: "But it was a last resort for me to break up with Catherine. It was more than half a year after I broke up with her that I met Christina, and then we were together. We are very good now, and our relationship is very stable. There is no problem like you said .”

Having said that, he put away the smile on his face again, and said seriously: "Here, I hope that all media reporters will stop using such childish and annoying ways to try to destroy my relationship with Christina. relationship, I hope that we can continue to develop with her. As for the sexy Hollywood you mentioned, that is your dream, can you stop talking about me?"

"I didn't want to destroy..."

The reporter from the New York Times wanted to defend himself, but he was very depressed when the staff came up and took away his microphone.

On the other side, in the Bulls' press conference hall, the atmosphere was as dull as iron.

Jordan said very little, and the first few local reporters asked some questions, and he answered them fairly simply.

At this time, the host turned over the cards of the New York Times reporter, and the reporter asked, "Michael, do you think that the loss tonight has something to do with your gambling before the game?"

"boom!"

Jordan's temples thumped, and he punched the table. Fortunately, he still had some control and didn't use much force, but the microphone in front of him was still knocked down.

He felt like the damn media was going to tear him apart, throw him in a stone mill, squeeze every drop of value out of him, and he hated the media.

"Calm down, Michael."

Phil Jackson next to him gave a reminder and reached out to help the microphone up.

Staring at the reporter, Jordan gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't gamble, no, I only had training before the game, training, no gambling, I swear to God."

But his attitude didn't make the media retreat, and after that reporter, another reporter rushed up to bite him, even if his psychological quality was extremely strong, he was destroyed by the media, and he felt exhausted. The game made him more tired.

……

After the press conference, the Pistons rushed to the airport overnight, ate some prepared supper on the plane, and returned to Detroit at 02:30 in the morning.

At four o'clock, when Zhou Quan came home, Christina still kept the light on for him, which made him feel warm.

That night, the Knicks unexpectedly lost to the Cavaliers at home and lost a match point, but with a big score of [-] to [-], they still held a match point in their hands.

In another game, the Sonics defeated Mosaic at home by a big score, 95:120, a big victory of 25 points, [-] to [-], and won the match point.

Olajuwon, who lost the match point, was very frustrated. As a super center, he just won DPOY this time, but he didn't have a block in this game, only 2 steals, and the team only had 7 block and 11 steals. The Sonics had 7 steals and 21 blocks.In terms of mistakes, his side had as many as 10 times, but the Sonics had only [-] times.

These performances allowed the Supersonics to take 13 more shots than their own side, and their shooting percentage was [-] percentage points higher than their own side. One data is better than the other, so it is very frustrating.

Zhou Quan paid more attention to this game, and his main concern was Payton.

这场比赛佩顿38分钟内17投10中，命中率高达58.8%，拿到了23分7篮板2助攻2抢断1盖帽0失误3犯规的数据。

The offensive efficiency is even higher than his yesterday's game, and the number of assists is too few. This is not to say that Payton's organizational skills are not good, but that the Supersonic's ball transfer is very good, so Payton's performance is very good. Better than last year's playoffs, this guy has grown up and should be a strong opponent for him in the future.

On the 21th, the G6 match day.

The Bulls' main center, Carter White, came back as a substitute, and Scott Williams was still the main center.

All Detroit people hope that the team can get rid of the Bulls tonight, but unfortunately, most of the players did not perform well and even lost the game.

Zhou Quan played 41 minutes, and the Pistons had trailed by 5 points in the fifth minute of the last quarter. He was replaced early, and Chuck Daly conceded.

在乔丹的防守下，他17投7中，命中率只有41.2%，三分球3投0中，6罚4中，只拿到18分5篮板8助攻2抢断4失误5犯规的数据。

Only three of the Pistons scored in double figures, Joe Dumars scored 19 points, Sekali scored 18 points, and the overall shooting percentage was only 41%.

Jordan didn't score high, scoring 28 points, shooting 52% from the field, and had 8 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals.

Five Bulls scored in double figures, of which Pippen scored 5 points. The team's overall shooting percentage was 24%, which was 48 percentage points higher than that of the Pistons.

In another game, Charles, Barkley had the last laugh, 102:100, defeated the Spurs in the away game, won by two points, and the Suns became the first team to reach the finals.

Barkley has been praised by the media. From the dream team scoring leader, to the regular season MVP, and now to the Western Conference finals, he has set foot on the pinnacle of his life.

The next day, Zhou Quan became the target of media fire.

He is a big core with the ball, and he must be the first person responsible for the team's loss. A lot of criticism came out at once.

According to media reports, Barkley is at the pinnacle of his life, but Zhou Quan seems to be at the bottom.

At ten o'clock in the morning, he woke up from the bed, did not read the newspaper, ate the breakfast prepared by Christina, and the two rushed to the team.

The G7 battle is on the 23rd, tomorrow, there is no more time for him to adjust and recover.

That night, the Knicks defeated the Cavaliers away and took the lead in the Eastern Conference Finals.

In another game, the Jets, the main guard of the Mosaic team, showed their power. They made 16 of 13 shots and a shooting percentage of 81.3%. They made 6 of 4 three-pointers and scored 30 points. A chance for a tie-break.

球队核心大梦13投7中，得到14分10篮板4助攻3抢断5盖帽6失误4犯规的数据。

Zhou Quan watched the game and admired the touch of Mosaic's five main players tonight. The five main players had only 8 free throw opportunities in total, and power forward Thorpe took 7 of them alone. Dameng didn't have a free throw, so it was completely out of the question. Lethality.

But Nai couldn't help but feel good. None of the top five starters had a shooting percentage lower than 8%. Dameng's shooting percentage was the lowest among the five. Thorpe made 6 of 9 shots, Robert Horry made 7 of 10 shots, and Madman Maxwell made 6 of 50 shots. With such a touch, even Jordan, who scored [-]+ in a single game, had to kneel when he met him.

"It would be great if our hands felt this good tomorrow." With this thought in mind, he fell asleep.

On May 5, the Detroit Pistons faced the Chicago Bulls, and the tiebreaker was about to start.

Today's media, whether it is print media or TV broadcast media, is focusing on this tiebreaker.

"There is no doubt that at this most critical and fatal moment, only a truly big heart can determine the outcome of the game, and Michael Jordan is such a person." Chicago Daily.

"Compared to Iron Fist in the second grade, Michael Jordan, who has experienced 9 playoffs and has countless hard honors, is more trustworthy." Miami Fortune.

"The Pistons lost the chance to eliminate the Bulls at home. Morale has definitely collapsed, which already means that they will lose this series. The Bulls regained the match point in the away game, their morale is high, and they will definitely pursue the victory. The possibility of promotion is far higher than that of the Pistons. ."Washington post.

"Iron Fist is a big ball-holding core, and he is mainly responsible for the failure of the G6 game. He still needs more training, but it needs to be pointed out that his current ability is not up to the requirements of the ball-holding big core. If Buck With Leigh taking his place, Pistons have a better chance of beating the Bulls." Los Angeles Daily.

There were still some media that supported the Pistons before, but when it was the tiebreaker, especially after the Pistons got the match point but lost the G6 game at home, there was no media supporting the Pistons except for the Detroit media, even the Los Angeles media. Sided with the bull.

A large number of NBA stars rushed to Chicago, many Hollywood stars also rushed to Chicago, and many people were interviewed by the media.

"Ervin, what do you think of this tiebreaker?" The reporter interviewed the magician.

Johnson said: "The development of things has inertia. After the big defeat last night, the morale of the Pistons has collapsed, and it is likely to usher in another big defeat. This probability is very high."

Postman Karl Malone also appeared in Chicago and was interviewed by the media.

"Carl, have you applied for your boxing license yet?" the reporter asked.

"Come on, I've been training since the first round, and I've almost met the requirements for a license. I'll definitely announce any news." The postman said in a deep voice.

"Who do you support in this tiebreaker?" the reporter asked.

The postman glared at the reporter and said, "Of course it's Michael, we are friends. You don't need to ask any more, I can tell you with certainty that Michael will definitely kill Iron Fist and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals."

……

"Swipe, swipe, bang, swipe, swipe..."

At one o'clock at noon, in the basketball gymnasium of the University of Chicago, the Pistons were doing shooting practice.

"I hope everyone feels better tonight." Assistant coach Musk said standing on the sidelines.

"I just hope that the psychological pressure of Tekken will not be too great." Another assistant coach Wilt said.

Musk nodded and said: "The loss of the G6 game is not because he didn't play well alone. Everyone feels bad. What can I do if I can't make the shot?"

After watching for a while, several main players did not come out of the blacksmith. Musk breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It feels pretty good."

Wilt nodded and said, "God bless."

"Orlando doesn't seem to be in a good mood," Musk said, looking at Ulrich.

"The main force was withdrawn in the G5G6 battle, and the reaction was normal." Wilt shook his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ulrich, who made a jumper, tilted his left foot when he landed. Without any confrontation, he groaned and sat on the floor holding his left ankle in pain.

"Oops!"

"How about you, Orlando?"

Everyone stopped training one after another and walked over.

Neville, the team doctor, went over to check immediately, and said with an ugly face: "The ligament of the left ankle joint may be torn or even broken."

"what?"

Everyone didn't expect it to be so serious, and they were all stunned.

Zhou Quan stood up and shouted loudly: "Don't be nervous, it's normal to be injured, first send Orlando to the hospital for examination."

He remembered that at this time last year, John Sely was also injured in training, and now he is here again. What does this indicate?
At this time, he couldn't help but thank Chuck Daly for withdrawing Ulrich's main position in the G5G6 game. The impact of the injury is not too great now.

Ulrich was taken to the hospital, and the Pistons continued to train, but things went smoothly and there were no accidents.

This matter was quickly known by the media, so they were even less optimistic about the Pistons.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the United Center arena was full, and the buzzing noise was endless.

On the south stand, close to the roof, sat two middle-aged Chinese, Ambassador Lin and Consul General Chen of the Chicago Consulate General.

Lin Changhua came from Washington to watch the game. He was very interested in Zhou Quan, because this was the first and perhaps the only compatriot he saw who could be very strong in front of the Americans.

A weak country has no diplomacy. As a diplomat, especially in the United States, he can feel the meaning of this sentence most deeply.

So even he can only work and live with a very weak attitude in the United States.

To be honest, he is very envious of Zhou Quan, and very much hopes that one day, like Zhou Quan, he can face everything with his head held high.

The last time I watched Zhou Quan's boxing match in Los Angeles, but I had no contact with Zhou Quan. This time I hope to communicate with Zhou Quan the same way as I did with Zhou Quan.

……

After winning the G6 game, Jordan was in a good mood. At this time, he ran to the court, and the fans shouted loudly, and the media also came to interview him.

But instead of being interviewed, he walked to the sidelines to greet some friends and acquaintances.

"Hey, Shaq, it's still too late for you to support me." When he walked up to O'Neill, he looked down at him and said.

O'Neill smiled and said honestly: "Thank the management for giving me a ticket."

Jordan's face darkened three points in an instant, he glanced at O'Neill coldly and walked over.

"Damn bumpkin!"

When he saw Christina Yeri's delicate French rose, he felt a strong sense of jealousy towards Zhou Quan in his heart.

Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar sat together, and the two were talking.

"Karim, the team wants you to go back and teach Verratti, you know he has talent, he's getting better and better."

"Let me think about it." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said noncommittally.

The Lakers are not his home team, but the most glorious and peak era of his career was with the Lakers. He won 6 of the 5 championships with the Lakers, so his feelings for the Lakers are very heavy.

It's just that his status in the Lakers is far inferior to that of Irvin Johnson, which makes him a little frustrated.

Just like the news from the Pistons in the afternoon, Ulrich injured his ankle during training, and he did the same, and he accidentally injured his ankle before the Lakers' first G6 finals game .

As a result, Irwin became an instant hit. He replaced himself as a point guard and played center. Not only did he lead the team to win the championship, but he also became the FMVP, which completely covered up his brilliance. Since then, Irwin Be the only one for the Lakers.

After he retired, he actually wanted to stay on the team as an assistant coach, but the Lakers management didn't say anything. After Irving retired, the boss took out 5% of the team's shares. This kind of treatment is so different. Make him very hurt.

Now the Lakers really want to trade Iron Fist. In order to reduce the trading value of Iron Fist, even Evan has already made a move. He has belittled Iron Fist several times overtly and secretly.

He has been retired for four years. He was not invited to go back before, but now he is asked to go back to coach. Why?He is also very clear, but not happy.

At this time, in the locker room of the home team, Jordan came back and was in a very good mood. While changing clothes, he said: "Ulrich is reimbursed. This is great news for us. Let's work together. As long as the tiebreaker is successful, I will give away a gift card to each of us." A golf card."

Everyone is disdainful, damn golf card, do you think we like golf as much as you?
