Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 380 Just hit like this
Jordan's performance tonight is not perfect, except for the careless start, he didn't dodge, was dunked by Rodman for a while, after that, Jordan went all out, scored 16 points in the first quarter, scored 30 points in the half, and then watched The score, 46:66, the Bulls trailed by 20 points at halftime.

The Bulls this season are by no means a weak team. They can definitely rank in the top three in the East, and their defensive ability is second only to the Pistons, not to mention Jordan's bug.

Especially in the second quarter, the Bulls missed several consecutive rounds, and the Warriors seized the opportunity to counterattack. After several counterattacks, the point difference quickly widened to more than 15 points.

If the Bulls want to chase again, they can only rely on Jordan's gouging one ball at a time. However, for the Warriors, after a few pick-and-rolls, the outside line is full of opportunities, even though Collins realizes that Pippen's defensive effect is better and prolongs Pippen's playing time , There is still no way to limit the Warriors' scoring.

Because the Warriors have too many players who can score. Except for Rodman, the starters all have the ability to score 20+ points per game, not to mention the substitutes. players.

Such a powerful offensive firepower stretches endlessly, like the Yellow River bursting out of control, even the deadly defensive front line composed of Jordan, Pippen and Grant is still difficult to stop.

Of course, Jordan was not satisfied with the way the game was going. During the halftime break, he was gasping for breath and his eyes were like copper bells. His teammates walked around when they saw him, for fear of being humiliated by Jordan's stinky mouth.

In fact, they should be scolded. Throughout the first half, only Jordan scored in double figures for the Bulls, and even the scores of the other four starters combined were not as high as Jordan alone.

However, the Bulls at this time are different from a few years ago. These players in the team are not parallel imports. After adjusting the midfield, they entered the third quarter and finally played. Duan breathed a sigh of relief, and began to tilt his attention to the defensive end.

Richmond received the pass from Li Weisi, hesitated, and passed the ball back.

"Why don't you fight anymore? Are you scared?" Jordan's annoying voice came from behind.

Richmond frowned and didn't speak, but although Jordan's words were annoying, they hit Richmond's heart.

He is really scared!

In addition to the pick-and-roll and passing and cutting, the Warriors' current offense also has a very important tactic, which is singles. Four of the Warriors' five starters have singles tactics.

The coaching staff will arrange the number of singles for each player according to the opponent in the next game, and the specific execution on the field will be assigned by Li Weisi.

Facing the Bulls, Jordan is the Bulls' strongest offensive point. If the Warriors can put a certain amount of pressure on Jordan on the defensive end, it will also affect Jordan's offensive state in terms of physical strength and energy.

This is how the Warriors arranged in the first half, allowing Richmond to single Jordan.

Although he is only a rookie, Richmond's singles performance is among the best in the team. Everyone believes that as long as he accumulates experience, he can surpass Malone and Mullin and become the team's second singles player. Needless to say.

But tonight, the young Richmond was severely educated by Jordan. In the first half, he singled 3 times, but he made 3 of 0 shots. He was even blocked by Jordan for the last time.

This is the most powerful opponent Richmond has encountered in his life. There is no one. Jordan beat Richmond from both offense and defense, so that Richmond, who has always been strong in heart, subconsciously Passed the ball Li Weisi gave him without hesitation.

In the end, the goal came to an end when Li Weisi scored a layup.

Just at this time, the Bulls called a timeout, and Li Weisi came to Richmond angrily and asked him, "Why did you pass back that ball just now?"

"I just don't have a good chance..." Richmond said shamefully.

"You are afraid!" Li Weisi said bluntly.

"I……"

"Listen, I'd rather you go 30-for-0 in a game than 9-for-0. 30-for-0 means your technique isn't good, but you're at least persevering. You haven't given up and you're not afraid of failure. But 9 shots It’s different in 0, which means that you choose to give up, and you will not succeed in this way, because you have lost confidence in yourself.”

After finishing speaking, Li Weisi left without looking back, and walked towards the bench, leaving behind Richmond who was struggling fiercely in his heart.

"You're too harsh on him, he's a first-year rookie!" Li Weisi reprimanded Richmond, who was noticed by Frank on the bench, and he whispered to Li Weisi who came back.

"He is older than me, okay? Didn't you say that he is a rock? Then I hope he is a diamond. Only through strong external pressure can the carbon element be turned into a diamond. The same is true for him. I believe he will be able to resist such pressure." Li Weisi said to Frank while wiping the sweat off his body while holding a towel.

"Hey, I hope so!" Hearing what Li Weisi said, Frank didn't say anything more, but prayed for Richmond in his heart, hoping that he could survive.

The game came back, and when it was the Warriors' turn to attack again, Li Weisi passed the ball to Richmond again.

This time, Richmond took a look at Li Weisi, gritted his teeth and began to fight Jordan with his back.

"That's right, that's it! Let me cover you!" Sure enough, Jordan's voice came from behind again.

However, Richmond was not disturbed by Jordan. He turned around and moved to the middle, and when he came near the free throw line, he was ready to make an emergency stop for a jump shot. Jordan cut it off.

Jordan, who got the ball, ejected like a cheetah, and took the ball alone into the empty frontcourt.

He adjusted his pace and began to collect the ball from outside the three-point line. When he took a step inside the free throw line, Jordan was already flying, and the gold chain around his neck was flying in the wind. After a certain distance, he dunked successfully.

Such an elegant and unrestrained dunk impressed the away fans. Even the pickiest Warriors fans had to admit that Jordan's dunk was beautiful.

Richmond blamed himself for being intercepted and caused the Bulls to fight back, but at this moment, Li Weisi slapped his ass, "Just hit like this! When I let you play singles, no matter whether you can succeed or not , you must fight resolutely, don't be intimidated by failure, only in this way, you will have the courage to overcome failure!"

Hearing that Li Weisi didn't blame him for losing the ball, Richmond was extremely grateful and looked at Li Weisi and nodded heavily.
