Chapter 96 Fighting the Hornets Again
~

December NO.30, the last game of the Bucks in 2014 was played at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, away to the Hornets.

There were many big shots in the auditorium of this game, such as Michael Jordan, the actual owner of the Hornets and the god of basketball; the magician Elvin Johnson invited by Jordan, and so on.

Before the start of the game, Xiaotian took a special look at Jordan. Compared with the high-spirited trapeze in the Superstar Challenge, the trapeze who wanted to be here was obviously too fat and swollen, and he probably couldn't fly anymore.However, Jordan's momentum is still there. Even if he is sitting in the auditorium, he is also the focus of many media attention.

This is not the first time Fang Xiaotian has met Jordan. The Bucks played against the Hornets at the Spectrum Center in the first game of the new season.But Fang Xiaotian back then was just entering the league for the first time, and he hadn't entered the eye of the basketball god at all.

It's different now. As the Bucks go further and further on the road to victory, the exposure rate continues to increase, and Fang Xiaotian's reputation is getting bigger and bigger.

It took Fang Xiaotian less than half a season to go from an unknown second-round pick to a thriving supernova!
Fang Xiaotian originally wanted to go up to say hello to the flying man. After all, he had been hanging out with Jordan for so long in the Superstar Challenge, not to mention the current hostile relationship between the two sides, just joking around with the flying man is quite interesting.

But the reality is not the core world, Fang Xiaotian and Jordan have no intersection at all, and it is impossible for him to beat Jordan with one punch like in the Challenger League!
"Fang, Michael and the others are talking about you!" Just as Fang Xiaotian was warming up silently, Parker suddenly elbowed him.

Fang Xiaotian turned his head and saw that Parker was right. The magician and basketball god who ruled the league back then pointed at him. It seemed that he was as good as they were.

However, Fang Xiaotian didn't have any fluctuations in his heart. He even overthrew the bulls who ruled the league in the 90s. Do you still care about Jordan's discussion?
After a whistle, Fang Xiaotian undoubtedly passed the ball in the air to Knight.Biyombo, who competed with him for the kick-off, had no choice. Although this was the second time he had met Fang Xiaotian, his proud bounce was useless in front of Fang Xiaotian.

Knight came to the frontcourt with the ball and handed the ball to Sanders.Although Fang Xiaotian's reputation is getting bigger and bigger now, he is still a coolie at the basket and a blue-collar insider.

Of course, Fang Xiaotian can also ask the head coach for the ball, but he understands the truth that haste makes waste.He had to eat one bite at a time, so as not to choke himself. Anyway, the Bucks are currently developing in a better and better direction, and he is also happy to make a fortune in silence.

Sanders has a low post and a mid-range, but he is facing veteran Al Jefferson, a man known as the king of inside footwork.After several attempts with the ball to no avail, Sanders decisively passed the ball to Antetokounmpo who ran out of the baseline three-point position.

After a period of training, Antetokounmpo dared to shoot three-pointers.After receiving a pass from Sanders, he made a quick shot.

The ball draws a beautiful arc in the air!

Off the court, Jordan and Johnson were pointing fingers at the situation on the court.The Bucks' tactics have just been discussed--the Bucks are supported by Fang Xiaotian, and they will shoot when they have the opportunity.

Although such a tactic is funny, it can easily lead to failure.Because people are not omnipotent, sometimes Fang Xiaotian can't catch rebounds!
But it's such a funny tactic, the Bucks have played almost half of the league, no matter which team is in the East or West, they all run away when they encounter this tactic.

Antetokounmpo's shooting is not beautiful, so...

Bang!

The ball hit the edge of the rim and bounced high back.

At the basket, Fang Xiaotian, who used his experience to get stuck and judged the basketball's landing point, squeezed Biyombo away, and grabbed the rebound with one hand with a big wave.Then he didn't pass the ball out. Using the short time in the air, he slammed the right hand that grabbed the ball to the basket.

There was silence in the center of the spectrum, and Jordan and Johnson stopped talking.Judging from the current performance alone, Fang Xiaotian is not like a rookie at all, his dominance in the interior is really strong.

When Jordan saw Fang Xiaotian playing last time, he felt that this guy's jumping was not bad, and his potential needs to be tapped; but after [-] games, Fang Xiaotian is completely different now, except for his jumping, he is still as sharp as ever!
At the beginning Fang Xiaotian was very powerful except for his jumping and strength, not to mention rough inside skills. It can be said that he did not grasp the essentials that inside players should master at all; but now!Fang Xiaotian's insider skills are very different from before.

Biyombo entered the league a few seasons earlier than him, and he is also a jumping expert, but Biyombo is still a rough guy, and his inside offense still relies on dunks, relying entirely on his body to play.

"I'm afraid this kid is going against the sky! The current game is very different from ours at that time. Small balls are becoming more and more popular. I am afraid that no one can stop Fang's sudden appearance!" The magician looked at Xiaotian above the field. The faces of all of them sighed.

"The most important thing is that his growth rate is too fast. His tossing energy is almost catching up with Shaq's back then. Once he entered the league, he set off a turbulent wave." Jordan touched the championship ring on his finger and said thoughtfully.

Judging from the contest between Fang Xiaotian and Biyongbo in the first round, the words of the two big guys are really good, but it's a pity that Fang Xiaotian couldn't hear them!

The game continues, the Hornets have the ball.

Although Fang Xiaotian overwhelmed Bi Yongbo in the first round and gained an overwhelming advantage, the Hornets generals remained unmoved.They know the strength of the Bucks, and they know their own depth, so they don't have much emotion about the Bucks scoring in the first offense.

In other words, they no longer care about winning or losing. As a middle and lower team, they can't even reach the corner of the playoffs, so their fighting spirit is really low.

I don't know how Jordan feels now. At the beginning, he ruled the league for more than ten years. After retiring, he failed as the boss.

The ball came to Jefferson.

The Hornets players pulled away to create offensive opportunities for Jefferson.They know that there is often only one shooting opportunity against the Bucks, otherwise they can only defend.

As for the second attack, don't even think about it, Fang Xiaotian is squatting under the backboard right now!Although Biyombo wanted to pull Fang Xiaotian out of the inside line, Fang Xiaotian was unmoved at all.

No heated rhetoric, no trash talking, Sanders and Jefferson battled.

As the king of inside footsteps, although Jefferson has physical confrontation, his favorite thing is to win with wisdom and use his footsteps to sway the matchup.

Fang Xiaotian stared at Jefferson from the side, ignoring Biyombo.He knew that Jefferson's footsteps were strong, and Sanders was likely to be swayed away, but he had backhands and was not afraid of Jefferson's footsteps.
