God of NBA point guards

Chapter 364 Discussion about the Times

At 08:30, the game officially started.

Jump ball, Sonic offense.

Zhou Quan received the ball, Ron Harper defended, it was no longer Jordan.

Smiling Assassin introduced: "Ron Harper is a swingman who is at the peak of his debut, with a height of 198 cm and a tonnage of 84 kg. He has averaged 20+ per game in five seasons of his career."

Lambiel went on to say: "After this kid was seriously injured in 94, he has become a pure defensive player in the Bulls. Now he defends the iron fist, so Michael Jordan's offense can be liberated."

The assassin said: "Jordan is getting older, and his physical fitness must be declining. The defensive end is taken over by Ron Harper, and he concentrates on offense. This is very beneficial to him."

"boom!"

At this time, Zhou Quan made a fake shot and then made a jumper with an emergency stop. Unfortunately, he missed under Ron Harper's entangled defense.

The Bulls attacked, Ron Harper ran to the left line, Zhou Quan also followed.

Jordan was on the right wing, distanced himself from Zhou Quan, singled out Jose Hawkins, made a stop jumper after breaking through, and hit a mid-range shot.

Supersonic attack, Zhou Quan singles Ron Harper again.

He feels that Ron Harper's defense is much better than BJ's. Harper will not fight against him, but he reacts quickly, is not heavy, moves quickly with his feet, and can keep up with his rhythm in time. It is difficult to entangle , The defense is not much worse than Jordan.

"brush!"

Or break through with the ball, and then catch a jumper with an emergency stop, this time it hit.

The Bulls attacked, and Ron Harper still pulled to the sideline, pulling away from Jordan.

Zhou Quan found out that Harper had no intention of attacking at all. He was just running outside the wing, but he didn't actively ask for the ball. Unable to help defend the basket.

In this way, Jordan can attack with all his strength, and Ron Harper, who is not offensive, can also defend him with all his strength on the defensive end, using his physical fitness to the blade.

He can switch defenses to defend against Jordan and crack the Bulls' tactic against him, but in that way, he will have to devote himself to both offense and defense, and will far surpass Jordan in terms of physical consumption.

You can still do this in the regular season, but in the finals, if you do this, it will be quite disadvantageous. The physical consumption of the series is too large, and his state will not be as good as Jordan.

If you continue to play like this, then Jose Hawkins is obviously unable to guard against Jordan, and Jordan can score double points on Hawkins' head.

So in this case, there is only one way for the Sonics to win. He also beat Ron Harper, playing a bigger advantage than Jordan playing Hawkins.

Can he do it?
With his current offensive strength, of course he is confident.

Whether it is physical fitness, offensive skills, game experience, etc., he has begun to enter the peak period, and Jordan has actually begun to decline from the peak state, but the range is not large. His shooting percentage last season He surpassed Jordan in true shooting percentage, and he is stronger and more confident this season.

With 2 minutes left in the first quarter, at 24:26, the SuperSonics led by two points.

乔丹在何塞霍金斯的防守下，10分钟9投6中，命中率66.7%，2罚2中，轰下了14分2篮板1助攻1抢断。

At the same time, on the defensive end, Hawkins made 4 of 1 shots and only scored two points.

而周权在罗恩哈珀的防守下，10分钟5投3中，三分球2投1中，2罚2中，轰下了9分1篮板3助攻1抢断1盖帽。

Ron Harper had no chances except one miss.

On the inside, Kevin Willis did not play high efficiency under Matt Geiger's full defense. He made 5 of 2 shots, all of which were mid-range shots, and scored 4 points and 3 rebounds.

Matt Geiger got a pass from Zhou Quan, made 2 of 1 shots, scored 2 points and 2 rebounds.

In the contest with Kevin Willis, he was not in a state of being crushed, but had a certain amount of resistance.

His tough defense made Willis uncomfortable. The two were the same weight and height, and it was very difficult for Willis to get to the basket.

With Zhou Quan's organization and strong assist ability, even though Jordan beat Hawkins on both offense and defense, the Sonics are still in the lead.

The only thing is that because of Ron Harper's containment, his ability to assist in defense is limited. Harper never holds the ball, and his super stealing ability cannot be used.

In the second quarter, George Karl began to increase his attack on Jordan.

Although Zhou Quan could not participate in the flanking attack, the flanking attack of others was also very fierce, which restricted Jordan's breakthrough with the ball. He could only take more shots from the outside, and his efficiency began to decline.

次节7投3中，其中三分球2投0中，3罚3中，半场16投9中，5罚5中，命中率53.9%，没首节那么离谱了，半场砍下23分4篮板3助攻1抢断1盖帽1失误1犯规。

As for Zhou Quan, his ability to break through with the ball is stronger than Jordan, and Phil Jackson also tried to double-team him when he broke through.

However, his passing and organizational skills are stronger than last season, which makes his direct assist ability far surpass that of Jordan, which immediately caused the Bulls to suffer, double-teamed three times, sent two assists, and then the Bulls had to give up double team.

In this way, Zhou Quan began to impudently attack the Bulls' inside line.

次节10分钟时间，他7投5中，6罚6中，单节轰下了16分，半场12投8中，命中率高达66.7%，一个三分球，8罚8中，轰下25分3篮板7助攻1抢断0失误1犯规的数据。

After halftime, 50:56, the Sonics led the Bulls by 6 points.

Zhang rationally analyzed: "Hawkins can't defend Jordan, that's for sure, but under the attack of his teammates, Jordan's efficiency is reduced.

On the other end, Ron Harper didn't live up to the Bulls' hopes for him, and he couldn't guard Zhou Quan either.Moreover, the Bulls' double-teaming tactics against Zhou Quan failed, and Zhou Quan played more efficiently than Jordan.

Although Zhou Quan played a very small role on the defensive end today, with only one steal, he used his scoring and organization assists on the offensive end to gain an advantage.

The Bulls expected Ron Harper's defense against Zhou Quan, and the expected advantage of Kevin Willis at the fifth position, both failed to play out. "

Xu Jicheng said: "Let's see how they play in the second half. The Bulls should make adjustments."

"Phil Jackson doesn't have much to do with the Sonics." In the ESPN commentary booth, the smiling assassin said with certainty.

"Why?" Ranbir asked cooperatively.

The assassin smiled and said: "If you want to win against the Supersonics, you must restrain Iron Fist, but even Jordan can't restrain it, and Ron Harper can't restrain it even more.

If he has a way, will he lose to Iron Fist twice?What is he relying on?It's definitely not a triangle tactic, he relies on Michael Jordan.

But now Iron Fist's offense overwhelms Jordan, and Jordan is already old, so no matter how he adjusts his tactics, he can't beat the Supersonics. "

This kind of more idealistic commentary came from Jordan's mortal enemy. It should have been opposed by many fans, but the fans in front of the TV didn't seem to have that meaning, but they all agreed with this statement.

The reason is very simple, because they just witnessed the performance of Zhou Quan and Jordan. The Bulls could not prevent Zhou Quan's offense and his pass, but Jordan was blocked in the second quarter. The reason for the assassin's statement.

终场，周权在罗恩哈珀的头上33投20中，投篮命中率高达60.6%，三分球5投2中，13罚12中，轰下了54分5篮板15助攻2抢断1盖帽1失误2犯规的超级数据。

A total of four Sonics scored in double figures, and the other three were Matt Geiger, Schramf, and Hawkins.

乔丹31投15中，命中率降到了48.4%，三分球6投2中，9罚8中，40分6篮板6助攻2抢断1盖帽3失误3犯规的数据。

In addition, Pippen scored 16 points, Kevin Willis 15 points, and Toni Kukoc scored 11 points. A total of four scored in double figures.

96:109, the Sonics beat the Bulls at home.

"Am I right?"

After the match, the assassin said triumphantly: "Phil Jackson has nothing to do with iron fists, and he would have used them long ago.

Iron Fist is more threatening with the ball than Jordan. With a ball in his hand, he can attack or pass, and it is more difficult to defend than Jordan.

In a word, double-teaming can limit Jordan's offensive efficiency, thereby limiting the offense of the entire Bulls, but it cannot limit the passing and assists of Iron Fist, so there is no way to limit the offense of the Supersonics, so it is more difficult for Iron Fist to be double-teamed. "

Lambiel laughed and said: "Kevin Willis, who the Bulls have high hopes on, only scored 15 points and 8 rebounds, and his shooting percentage was only 46%. As a center, this efficiency is not high enough. I can beat him with one hand." .

Matt, who was facing up, scored 10 points and 8 rebounds, shooting 51.2%, and his performance was not worse than him, indicating that the Bulls' reinforcement at the fifth position was not considered a success. "

The assassin nodded and said with a smile: "The Bulls management chose to keep Phil Jackson and fire Jerry Krause, it is really stupid.

In fact, he shouldn't be looking for Kevin Willis, Bill, he should be looking for you, you are more suitable for the Bulls than Willis. "

"Haha..." Ranbir burst out laughing.

In the CCTV commentary booth, Zhang Lili said: "It looks good so far. Kevin Willis can't play an absolute advantage in the fifth position. His condition is not as good as last season, and he can't recover from injuries. That's fine.

As long as the Bulls don't have a big advantage at the fifth position, with the strength of the Sonics, the chances of meeting the Bulls in the finals are not small. "

Xu Jicheng nodded and said, "From the perspective of shooting percentage, Jordan has declined slightly, while Zhou Quan has entered his peak period. One of the two sides is going up the mountain, and the other is about to go down the mountain."

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Also, Jordan's defense is not as hard as last season. One is that Zhou Quan was handed over to Ron Harper, and the other is that his physical fitness is not as good as before."

Xu Jicheng smiled and said, "Director Zhang, now the American media is mentioning the Iron Fist era, what do you think?"

Zhang Lili smiled emotionally: "The last time the term Iron Fist Era was mentioned by the media in Detroit. At that time, Zhou Quan had not won the championship in the Pistons and was ridiculed by the media. But this time, how many media dare to laugh at him?
The media is not blind, they can see Zhou Quan's progress, they can also see that Zhou Quan has entered his peak period, and of course they can also see that Jordan is coming down from his peak state.

Zhou Quan has won two championships in four years, as long as he wins two more championships, this may be possible. In the 90s, he monopolized four championships by himself, and the Iron Fist era has taken shape. "

"Can the Four Crowns become the Iron Fist era?" Xu Jicheng asked excitedly.

Zhang Lili shook his head and said: "It's a bit difficult. In the era of the magic bird, there were five crowns for magicians and three crowns for big birds. The two of them have a total of eight crowns, which together occupy an era.

Although the magician has two more crowns than the big bird, but because the two tyrants are competing, no one says that the 80s is the era of the magician.

If Zhou Quan only has four championships, a little less, Jordan has already won three championships now, at least half of it?In the case of the six crowns, a dynasty should be included, so it should be able to monopolize an era.With four championships, he should share an era with Jordan. "

"Dynasty? Jordan didn't make it either. Given his age, he probably won't have a chance in the future. It's hard!" Xu Jicheng sighed.

Zhang Lili sighed and said: "When Jordan won the championship for the first time in 91, he said a word at that time, this is not a coincidence, this is the beginning of an era.

How ambitious, in his state at the time, really, everyone was expecting him to create a dynasty. "

"Indeed, he defended his title again in the second year, and the dynasty is just around the corner." Xu Jicheng nodded.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "It's a pity that Zhou Quan, who was born out of nowhere, shattered his dynasty dream with a single punch. Now he is 33 years old. With Zhou Quan's current strength and supersonic operation ability, he actually has no more chances." Opportunities and abilities to create dynasties too.

I mean, Michael Jordan has lost the opportunity to create his own era, that opportunity no longer exists.

Or, he and Zhou Quan share an era, which is the most likely and his best result.

Or, in the next few seasons, Zhou Quan will dominate the league, play a dynasty, overwhelm Jordan with an absolute record advantage, and dominate the 90s. This is the worst result for him. "

Xu Jicheng was very excited when he heard this, thought for a while and said: "Even if Jordan doesn't win the championship again, it will be three championships in ten years, and this is the United States again. I think the first one may be the biggest.

I actually think that even if Zhou Quan played a dynasty, the American media would not think that the 90s belonged to him alone. The Iron Fist era was very difficult. "

"Indeed. Unless, two dynasties?" Zhang Lili laughed.

"Haha, that's impossible. After all, Zhou Quan only has two championships now, and he hasn't defended his title yet. He's not as good as Jordan." Xu Jicheng laughed and said.

On the sidelines, Zhou Quan was being interviewed on the spot.

"Iron Fist, today you and Jordan both played impressive personal offenses, but your efficiency and scoring are higher than him. Do you think you have surpassed him in terms of personal offenses?" ESPN reporter asked.

Zhou Quan smiled and said: "The reason why my personal offense is better than his tonight is because of my passing ability in double-teaming and direct assist ability.

So they were trying to double-team me, but they had to give up after my pass broke the double-team, so I was far less double-teamed than Jordan tonight.

As for whether the personal offense has surpassed Jordan, I think that I have at least reached the same level as the current Jordan. "

He is not humble. The last remarks about Magic Johnson's comeback also directly expressed his thoughts.

The reason for this is an innate personality and an acquired personality developed in the United States, but there is another reason. Now that he has been considered by the media as one of the greatest athletes in the world, he must show his strength Personality and principles of doing things should not be blindly humble, nor blindly submissive.

For a superstar, personality is very important, and it was for this reason that Skechers chose him.
