Chapter 210 The Legendary Follower

Claude picked up the rebound and threw it vigorously to Jiangbei who was about to come down. Jiangbei easily completed a 360-degree turning dunk again, which was regarded as a response to Gordon, but the difference was that Jiangbei completed the dunk easily, but Gordon's dunk was blocked by Ayton.

Aaron Gordon looked at Ayton with an ugly face. It was because he let his wonderful dunk performance go to waste. At this moment, he hated Ayton very much, but this was also within the normal defensive range.

"MD, don't be too complacent, I was careless this time, and it won't be so easy to destroy my dunk next time!" Gordon said angrily to Ayton.

"Really? I'll wait for you to come over at any time inside, of course you can come too!" Ayton sneered.

Ayton's speechless Gordon was speechless, so he simply turned and left, returned to his position, and prepared for the next attack.

Jiangbei has already completed two wonderful dunks, while Gordon only made one and failed. He had hoped to use this to defeat Jiangbei and get some All-Star votes. Maybe he could become an All-Star player this year, but so far, he is in a backward state and has no advantage at all, so he is impatient at this moment.

There is an old saying in Huaxia that he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Gordon, who wants to surpass Jiangbei, always wants to finish the dunk earlier because he is too impatient. He tried several times, but all ended in failure.

It created a lot of opportunities for the Suns to play defensive counterattacks, and the Suns once extended their lead to double digits. The head coach of the Magic angrily replaced Gordon and put him on the bench, asking him to calm down before talking.

Halfway through the second quarter, the Suns, who had taken the lead, replaced their starters and replaced them with substitutes. At this time, Gordon also returned to the court.

This time, the inside line of the Suns couldn't guard against Gordon, and created many opportunities for him, allowing him to complete several wonderful dunks, but the effect was still not so ideal, not as exciting as Jiang Bei's performance, which made him feel very uncomfortable, after all, he wasted too much energy before.

Actual dunks are different from dunks in dunk contests. Actual dunks are the same action but consume more physical energy. This is also true for many star players, whether they are super giants. Their dunks will not be too many per game. Unless it is a game that is easy to win, you don’t need to worry about physical energy consumption, so you will do this.

Except for players who love to perform, there are very few people who dunk more than a dozen baskets in a game, and five or six are already quite a lot.

Although Gordon can't be guarded inside and let him make waves inside, the Suns have Booker's presence on the outside, and they are not vegetarians, and they have steadily maintained their lead.

At the end of the first half, the Suns 57:52 the Magic, leading by 5 points into the intermission.

Everyone in the Suns happily returned to the locker room to rest, while the Magic team on the other side didn't have such a good face. Vucevic looked at Gordon very unhappy because of his mistake.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Magic adjusted their lineup and replaced Terrence Ross to face Jiangbei.

Terrence Ross was selected by the Toronto Raptors with the eighth pick in the 2012 draft. It is worth mentioning that he is much better than Aaron Gordon. He participated in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest in his first year as a rookie. In the two preliminaries, Ross scored 50 points and 49 points respectively. 58% of the votes won the championship.

In the subsequent 2014 All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, the rules of the game were revised, and the six participating players will be divided into two teams in the East and West for group confrontation. 2014 will be the first time in the history of the slam dunk contest that only team trophies will be awarded and no individual trophies will be awarded.

As last year's slam dunk champion, Terrence Ross was successfully selected. The Eastern team composed of John Wall, Paul George and Terrence Ross easily defeated the Western team composed of Harrison Barnes, Ben McLemore and Damian Lillard 3:0 to win the 2014 Slam Dunk Contest.

These are the two slam dunk contest champions, much better than Gordon. Gordon should learn more from the seniors in the team, so that he has not won a slam dunk contest.

Many people know Terrence Ross because of his two wonderful performances in the slam dunk contest. At that time, there was also a voice that described Terrence Ross as a dunker, not a really good swingman. This is undoubtedly a denial of Ross' overall ability.He won the title of slam dunk king when he was just a fledgling, which seemed to have a negative impact on Terrence Ross, rather than a positive one.However, in recent years, Terrence has proved that he is not a simple dunker, but the king of the Magic's bench!

Terrence Ross and Derrick Rose are both "blooming roses" on the basketball court, but their career trajectories are quite different. Derrick Rose's career has been high and low. Just after entering the league, he has become a top superstar in this field and set many records of his own, such as the youngest most valuable player in the NBA.But after experiencing injuries, Derrick Rose, a rose that bloomed early, began to wither. Although Rose can still fight, he is not as good as Rose in the past.

But Terrence Ross's career trajectory is quite different from the former. His career trajectory is the opposite of Derrick Ross. At the beginning of his career, he was just a follower without self-positioning. Even in the slam dunk contest, he paid tribute to his predecessor Vince Carter.After being selected by the Raptors in 2012, this quiet NBA rookie seems to have been appearing on this field with respect. Terrence Ross performed well in the Raptors, but he did not form himself in the Raptors.In the second season of his career, he averaged 10.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 1 assist per game. Terrence Ross deserves a better chance to perform.

Therefore, during the four years of the Raptors, Terrence Ross was like a follower of a classic legend. He did not let himself become his own signature, and did not form his own unique value and style of play.However, on February 2017, 2, the trade between the Orlando Magic and the Raptors changed Terrence Ross. The Magic sent Ibaka to get Terrence Ross and a 15 first-round pick from the Raptors.
