The Point Guard is Here

Michael Jordan was at point guard tonight, not for a triple-double.

He is simply suppressing Doc Rivers.

Doc Rivers has an old-fashioned bitter face, a big nose and thick lips, and he looks uglier when he smiles than when he cries.

From the first second of the game, Jordan focused on suppressing him.

Even the proud Marbury sat in front of the TV and sighed in admiration that Michael Jordan is simply a human being specially created by God for the sport of basketball. His speed, explosive power, jumping, technique... are all at the historical level, and he even added a unique ability to fly and stay in the air.

Michael Jordan took his time as he glides between Anthony Mason Jr. and Patrick Ewing, waiting until both of them were about to fall before making a shot.

Marbury was going crazy.

He held his head and screamed.

He completely forgot his position and responsibility as a New Yorker.

Anyone who has watched Jordan play will become his fan, because what he presents is not only statistics, but also the ability to control the game meticulously and pleasing famous scenes.

New York commentators described Michael Jordan as a rapacious demon.

Fittingly enough, he drained New York's point guard line tonight.

Doc Rivers seems to be a king who has been emptied, and his government orders cannot go out of the palace, and his basketball cannot be passed to his teammates in an orderly manner.

The Knicks' offense became messy, although Pat Riley arranged pick-and-roll tactics to relieve some of the passing pressure.

However, the Knicks' attackers are really lackluster.

Nervous Starks is not excited tonight.

Anthony Mason Jr. has a jumper, but isn't consistent enough.

Patrick Ewing is proficient in all offensive methods, but... the efficiency of the gorilla has not been very high: Among the four major centers, he belongs to everything, has everything, but has no real unique skills and ultimate moves.

This is why he is the only one of the four major centers who has been criticized for being soft at critical moments.

For the other three centers, the Sharks rely on one trick. He is a giant with strength, jumping, agility, and tonnage all in one. When he wants to get a position deep in the penalty area, no one can hold him at the basket. Dunk.

Olajuwon's fantastic footwork is famous all over the world. When he starts to shake, it is difficult for the opponent to end without fouling.

There is also Admiral Robinson. Although the young sharks ridiculed and criticized him in every possible way, it has to be admitted that Robinson is the most mobile among the four major centers. He is simply a large small forward. Therefore, he also has a trick.

Only Ewing knows everything and is proficient in everything. It's just that he didn't kill the opponent's ultimate move at the critical moment, and as his age increases, his offensive efficiency is actually decreasing. (This standard is in the comparison category of superstars, and gorillas are still very fierce.)

Therefore, when his teammates were restricted, he did not show a strong traction effect, and he sank along with the team.

There was still a little bit of suspense in the first three quarters of the game. After entering the fourth quarter, the Bulls completely opened the score.

The camera gave Pat Riley a look of helplessness many times.

He lost control of the game because none of his tactics worked.

He has no extra energy to solve the weakness on the back line. Starks, who was originally given high hopes by him, also lost ground under Pippen's defense tonight and hit the iron like crazy.

In this situation, it is hard not to think about what the high school boy said.

Perhaps, the New York Knicks should really trade Doc Rivers and change to a point guard who can make the team quicker.

Excessive obsession with positional warfare is probably not what the Knicks should do, because they do not have a scorer who can score efficiently in positional warfare. In this way, their advantage on the defensive end will be wasted.

"Maybe New York should sign that high school kid to the team."

When a host on TV says something like that.

The three teenagers in the room all looked at Fan Xi.

"Do you think New York will really choose Jack to be the savior?"

Chauncey Billups boldly raised questions.

Alston carefully verified: "It seems that this possibility is not impossible. Although Jack's words made them very annoyed two days ago, this failure should wake them up. If the person who raised the problem cannot be solved, they should Come and ask the person who asked the question."

When Stephen Marbury heard this, he immediately regained his spirits: "If Jack comes to New York, wouldn't we be able to get together often again?"

Uh….

Billups rolled his eyes and said angrily, "New York will choose Jack, but it may not choose you."

"What are they trying to figure out about you? They want you not to pass the ball, and they want you not to take a shower?" Billups wiped honey on his small mouth.

Marbury didn't bother to talk to him, he asked Fan Xi: "Jack, which school do you plan to go to in college? How many years do you plan to study in college before participating in the draft?"

Billups reminded him again: "Although you are the same age, Jack has already finished his third year of high school, and you are only a sophomore in high school. It is impossible for you to participate in the draft in the same year, unless Jack is willing to wait for you for a year..."

"Then are you willing to wait for me?" Marbury asked Fan Xi.

Fan Xi raised a middle finger for him: "Don't ask such silly questions."

Fan Xi turned around and went to the bathroom to wash his clothes. He was a mildly obsessed with cleanliness, and he had to wash his clothes himself every day before sending them to dry. Unlike Marbury, he handed over all the underwear to the cleaning aunt.

While Vanhee was doing laundry, Jordan on TV was being interviewed. "...you see, that kid was right. The New York Knicks have no chance of winning. They've been ripped apart."

Jordan smiled confidently on the TV.

He mentioned Vanhee again.

This is increasing Fan Xi's popularity.

Fan Xi's reputation spread to the entire basketball circle because of the turmoil in the Eastern Conference finals. He was originally only famous in the high school basketball circle, and he was suddenly noticed by many NBA teams.

Many fans want to unravel the mystery of this kid.

People are more and more curious.

As Steve Joyce said, with Fanhee attracting so much attention, he should turn these attentions into "hope" and use his outstanding performance to consolidate the stickiness, so that he can gain a lot of attention in the basketball circle. Greater presence.

...

In the early morning of the next day, Fan Xi arrived at the training hall ahead of schedule. Today, he will practice with the University of Kentucky.

The game between the University of Kentucky and Duke University is scheduled for this evening, and this afternoon is the battle between North Carolina and Michigan.

Therefore, the team needs to seize the time for training and running-in.

Compared to Cook Williams, who arrived at 9 o'clock, Kentucky obviously prefers Fanhee.

When the Kentucky Wildcats arrived at the practice facility, Van Heede was drenched from practice.

As the Wildcats began warming up before practice, Rick Pitino called Vanhee aside for a chat. He briefly explained his tactical manual to Fan Xie, hoping that Fan Xie could memorize three or four fixed tactics.

In this way, the last game will not panic.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Fan Xi pointed out very politely: "Coach, I think the No. 3 tactic you mentioned just now, the point guard launching the tactic from the top of the arc...should be slightly modified. If No. 3 The player, that is, Jamal Mashburn, pulls to the weak side to attract the defense. The No. 2 power forward mentions the high pick-and-roll, and then retreats to the top of the arc. The No. 2 shooter cuts from the big cross on the baseline to the three-point line on the other side. Mobility, more able to crack Duke's defense."

Uh….

Rick Pitino was a little taken aback.

He frowned: "Do you remember the tactics I told you just now?"

"I have watched all the games of the Wildcats in this year's championship in the past two days. I think I am better at breaking through and scoring the ball than Delk. I can seamlessly connect with Kentucky's existing system..."

Fan Xi said frankly.

"I don't believe it." Rick Pitino shook his head.

He thought Fan Xi was overconfident.

He even felt that this kid wanted to play a player with a "high IQ and high golf quotient" in front of him, hoping to get more opportunities.

However, the training that followed made him break his glasses.

Obviously this kid looks mediocre, his physical fitness and offensive ability are lackluster, and he has no bright spots.

However, when he is programmed into tactical training, he always allows his teammates to quickly find the shot.

He didn't delay the operation of tactics at all.

He didn't miss a single position, and even... Kentucky's assistant coaches were asking Pitino: "Have you secretly communicated with him about tactics? Do you want to give Duke a blow?"

Pitino raised his hands, feeling wronged.

Then, he simply included Fan Xi in the starting lineup, and officially played a full game.

Vanhee, Delk, Mashburn, McCarty, and Monroe form a team.

When this lineup got lucky, it was still a little stagnant at the beginning. The players were not very comfortable with Fan Xi's rhythm.

But when Vanhee and Mashburn went to the sidelines to discuss for a while, Vanhee began to take the initiative to direct his teammates to move.

The offense became smoother.

It's like Dove Qiao Kou Li.

The team's offense was as fast as mercury pouring down the ground. It took less than 7 seconds from the successful defense to the completion of the offense.

Mashburn was perfectly unleashed on the offensive end, and he was easily treated one-on-one or even one-on-zero.

He had never been this happy in a previous game.

The same is true for other players. As long as they run, they can always get open.

Fan Xi was always able to feed them the basketball comfortably. Everyone felt like they were peeing in a hot spring. It was comfortable, smooth and seamless, without any sense of unevenness in temperature.

"What kind of tactic is this?"

Pitino couldn't help but ask, he is a head coach who uses three-pointers very cleverly, but he didn't expect that Fan Ximing was playing a tactic that he was comfortable with, but he didn't expect...he actually used speed, three-pointers The separation and sense of space form an organic combination.

This is definitely an unprecedented tactical system.

"Maybe...it can be called running and bombing." Fan Xi said.

"Run and guns?" Pitino said literally.

Then, he murmurs, it's unartistic.

Perhaps it is more scientific to call it the "Pitino-Jackfan Law".

He thought so.

Now, his mood became extremely happy, and he began to look forward to the nightfall, and he couldn't wait to give Duke a surprise, a surprise that would stuff the fruit of failure down their deep throats.

Interestingly enough, Pat Riley is also expecting the night to come.

Originally, he wasn't that interested in watching his alma mater play.

However, when he learned that the high school teenager was going to the University of Kentucky, his idea became urgent, especially after the helpless loss to the Chicago Bulls in the last game.

He decided to go and see for himself, to see if this 'hit the nail on the head' little guy really had a solution.

It is worth mentioning that Michael Jordan also temporarily decided not to go to the Atlantic Casino, he also decided to watch the game. Although this event was started by two old rivals, Isiah Thomas and Chuck Daly, but... everyone knows that Michael is now a winner.

The winners pay attention to the 'business' of the 'losers', what is there to say.

In addition, American cable TV and cbs have also frankly announced the broadcast agreement, and today's two games will be broadcast live across the United States.

Especially the second game is a golden schedule.

It's the time to play against the Western Conference Finals.
