Chapter 231 230: Kevin. Don't Make Uncomfortable Sky Garnett(2/5)
Jordan just showed a disdainful expression: "Look at our record, this season is destined to belong to us, no one can take it away! As for the 53 points, it's all about having the skills~"
Jordan has regained his "god" aura since winning the championship last season.
At this time, Jordan and the Bulls seemed impossible to defeat.
Shay's career-high score was just a result of Jordan's whim.
As long as Jordan wants to, he can score 53 points in a single game every minute.
The Bulls' record has also led the media to speculate that the Bulls are very likely to become the second team in history to win 70+ games in a single season after the Lakers in the 1993-94 season!
The Chicago media said: "Before Shea interrupted Jordan's dominance of the scoring champion, Jordan had already broken Shea's 70-win record!"
In response, Shea only responded: "I still say the same thing, 70 wins without a championship ring is meaningless."
Everyone can hear the other meaning of Shea's words: "It doesn't matter how well the Bulls perform in the regular season. Anyway, I can't let the Bulls win another championship this season!"
The battle between Shai and Jordan for the scoring title, the battle for the 70-win record, and the battle for the championship.
For a time, the showdown between the Lakers and the Bulls and the feud between Shea and Jordan once again became the mainstream topic in the league!
At the beginning of this season, people did not regard the Lakers as the Bulls' opponents at all.
But Shay dragged the oldest team in the league and stood in front of the powerful Bulls again!
Shay did not disappoint Stern. Now, the league can continue to hype up the 23VS23!
But no one knows who will release whose pigeon this season.
Jordan and Shay have been pigeonholing each other for two years.
But for now, people think that Shea is more likely to pigeon than Jordan.
There are almost no opponents in the East who can stop the Bulls, while in the West, the Lakers' living environment is quite harsh.
No, after the extremely exciting Christmas Day game, the Lakers only had one win and one loss.
Successfully took revenge on the Spurs, but lost to the Jazz.
The Lakers feel like they can win against anyone, but they can't win for sure.
In fact, this is because the Lakers' lineup is not so abnormal.
There is no ability to reduce dimensionality.
Therefore, it is normal to win one game and lose another.
But if the series is played in five or seven games, Shea believes that this Lakers will not be afraid of any opponent!
Besides, entering 1996 with a record of 23 wins and 8 losses, the Lakers had exceeded expectations.
Don't forget, the Lakers only had 2 wins and 4 losses at the beginning.
Although the Lakers may not necessarily be able to win against their opponent, Shay's brutal performance is very stable.
It was 32 points against the Spurs and 35 points against the Jazz.
In the past, Shea was able to lead his team to win games by relying on torturous defense and the ability to mobilize the entire team.
But now, Shay can kill you by scoring.
So much so that most players around the league are now afraid of exchanging trash talk with Shay.
Barkley criticized Shea before, and Shea scored 52 points in a single game.
Drexler sprayed Shea, who responded with 53 points.
Most people agree on one thing: If you don't want to embarrass yourself and make headlines, you'd better keep your mouth shut in front of Shay.
Unknowingly, Shay has received the same treatment as Jordan!
In the first game of 1996, the Lakers played against the 76ers.
That's what Philadelphia linebacker Vernon Maxwell did.
This former right-hand man next to Olajuwon was sent to the Suns in the Hornacek trade, and was then cleared by the Suns to the 76ers.
In the past, he had suffered a lot for teasing Shay.
He even got beaten.
Therefore, Maxwell knew better than to mess with Shay.
Today, Maxwell was in good form and had scored 22 points with six minutes left in the fourth quarter.
Moreover, the 76ers were only 6 points behind.
It seems that the 76ers, who are rushing for the No. 1 pick, have no chance of winning the game.
But even with such an outstanding performance, Maxwell kept his lips tightly shut today and was very quiet throughout the game.
Thanks to Maxwell's efforts, Shay played very gently today, and seemed to lack the "must torture you to death" ferocity that he had when he beat Drexler.
This is actually normal. From Christmas to now, the Lakers' opponents are the Rockets, Spurs and Jazz respectively.
All of them are strong teams in the Western Conference, and Shea must be playing with great energy.
As a result, there is suddenly a 76er who is competing for the No. 1 pick. It is equivalent to a man who hangs out between C and D every day, and suddenly meets a rich woman who has her own airport.
How can this arouse interest?
This is how Shay felt. Suddenly playing against a team that he could suppress casually, and with no one to stimulate his desire to win, he really felt very unmotivated.
And during this trip to Philadelphia, Shay did have other things on his mind.
Therefore, despite the fact that the 76ers are only 6 points behind now, it is actually because the entire Lakers team has not made any deadly moves.
As long as Shay exerts his strength, the 76ers will be buried in an instant.
Maxwell remained quiet, knowing very well that the best Shay was the uninterested Shay.
If you want to get him interested, he won't stop until you fuck him!
The game continued, this time Maxwell used the pick-and-roll to get rid of Finley and shot from the mid-range position on the right side.
Shay, who was defending in the right corner, immediately stepped up to defend and interfered with Maxwell's shot.
But Maxwell still scored, and his touch was really hot today.
Maxwell already has the attributes of a genius. When he was with the Rockets, when he felt good, even Olajuwon would become the second choice.
After the goal on Shea's head, Maxwell remained silent.
Even trying his best to avoid eye contact with Shay.
At this time, the Lakers were only leading by 4 points, and Carlisle suspended the game.
Seeing Shay walking to the bench, Maxwell let out a big sigh of relief.
call.
Fortunately, fortunately, Shay wasn't angry.
But just when Maxwell thought everything was fine, he heard someone yelling wildly:
"Good job! Keep fucking him, buddy, he can't defend you! Attack him hard and kill him! Tonight belongs to you Vernon, let him see whose home field this is!"
Maxwell suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, who is it? Does he want to die!?
Looking back, I saw that it was the 76ers’ high school rookie with the fourth overall pick this year—Kevin Garnett, the donut lover!
Garnett was very excited today. As a young man, how can he not be excited if he has the opportunity to defeat one of the strongest teams in the league?
Maxwell swallowed, and then tried to lower his voice: "Keep your fucking voice down, Shay is right next to you!"
Unexpectedly, Garnett became even more aggressive: "I know? So what? Come on, man, kill him, he is trash! He is trash who thinks he can rival Jordan!"
"I told you to keep your voice down! If you want to talk trash to Finley, don't mention Shay!" Maxwell said and was about to cover Garnett's mouth, but when he turned around, he found that
It's too late.
Shay was already standing there, looking at Maxwell and Garnett with serious eyes.
This shows that he has locked the target!
Before Shay could speak, Maxwell immediately smoothed things over and quickly apologized: "Forget it Shay, he's just a kid, don't be as familiar with him."
But Shay didn't laugh. He continued to stare at KG and Maxwell: "What the hell did you just say? Do you think you are as good as Jordan?"
"That's right!" Seeing Shay talking to him, Garnett became even more excited!
Shay nodded, then looked at Maxwell: "Okay, let's start fixing it!"
After that, he turned around and walked to the bench.
Maxwell looked confused: "No. What? Brother, I am innocent!"
On the side, KG, who was playing against Shay for the first time, had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter: "Hey, I believe you can kill him today. Seeing him pull like that, I really thought we were afraid of him!"
Maxwell: I'm just really scared!
There is a reason why Garnett is so confident today. KG is not a power forward now, but is used as a small forward.
So he is often assigned to defend outside players.
