Chapter 21 Penny Hardaway

Hardaway had a run on Jordan on the offensive end.First, a three-pointer against Jordan.In turn, Jordan made an emergency stop facing the basket and shot him back.

Since then, Hardaway has caused a defensive foul in the low post.Serve again, the ball is still in his hands.Playing Jordan in a low post singles, he contradicted him twice in a row, his thin body could not get any closer to the basket.

Hardaway stepped back and leaned back, and the ball scored.Orlando gave their superstar a standing ovation.In the absence of O'Neal, Hardaway led the Magic to fight the Bulls tenaciously.

One-on-one with Jordan on the court.This is something Bai Jidong could never dream of.How strong is Jordan?Bai Jidong is very clear.This Hardaway did not lose the wind in the confrontation with Jordan.

Hardaway's performance in the first quarter was brave.The overall stronger Bulls dominated.After the first quarter, the Bulls led 29-19 by 10 points.

"Bye! Get ready to play." Phil Jackson's words brought Bai Jidong back to reality.

Bai Jidong stood up dully, "Who am I playing against?" "Anfernee Hardaway." Jordan reminded him, "You took my place, and Scott stayed on the court." "Why not let Scott defending him?" Bai Jidong asked.

"Are you scared?" Jordan asked jokingly.

Bai Jidong tried to stay calm: "I'd like to see how powerful the person who knocked Michael Jordan off." "Blow it up? You're talking fucking nonsense!" Jordan blew his beard and stared in anger.

Bai Jidong was happy to anger Jordan again.

Soon Bai Jidong couldn't laugh anymore, because Hardaway's condition was better than in the first quarter.Thanks to the overall defense of the Bulls, no one on the Magic side can open the gap except Hardaway.

With 10 seconds left in the attack time, the ball fell into Hardaway's hands.

Bai Weidong had just entered the game, facing Hardaway at the top of the arc.Hardaway's upper body bent down, the ball passed under his crotch, onto his left hand, accelerated suddenly and then decelerated instantly.

Bai Weidong's center of gravity almost collapsed.This start of shifting speed and then decelerating has already shaken Bai Jidong's defense.So Hardaway accelerated for the second time.

too fast!Although Bai Jidong was able to keep up with his feet, he was knocked away by Hardaway.

Hardaway's first step stepped into the blue paint, holding the ball with his left hand and passing through Bai Jidong's block.Bai Jidong didn't touch anything, but he clearly heard the referee's call.After the whistle sounded, Hardaway picked the basket and succeeded.

"Great!" Magic Johnson said excitedly: ""Penny" completed a beautiful layup in front of Bai Jidong! This is an MVP-level offense!" "Yes! The Bulls rookie is the king of Orlando Reluctantly seems too immature!" Megan continued.

"Penny? Why is there penny written on your armguard?" After Hardaway finished his free throw, Bai Jidong caught up with him and asked.

Hardaway laughed and said, "My grandma likes to call me that." "Really? Then she must be very proud of you." Bai Jidong chatted with Hardaway like a friend.

"Yes, she said I was the proudest child of hers, and I love her," Hardaway said.

At this time, Pippen's ball was passed to Bai Jidong's hands.

Hardaway's defense gave off a frightening aura from bottom to top, and Bai Jidong's heartbeat intensified. This feeling can only be felt when he is in a one-on-one match with Jordan.

"Come on! Rookie." Hardaway said lightly.

Bai Jidong stared at his face.He somewhat knew why this person was appointed as Jordan's successor.Handsome appearance, idol style of play and youth.No matter which one is enough to make the league enthusiastic.

"Michael, isn't it too much for that kid to face Anferney now?" Ron Harper asked.

Jordan leaned on the bench and drank Gatorade, "I hope Anferni will not show mercy, it's best to let that guy have nightmares when he sleeps at night." "He's just a child." Hubble felt that this was too cruel.

Jordan said coldly: "This is the battlefield! If he squeezes in and chooses this place, he will no longer be a child." "Yes, it's time for the young eagles to see how wide the sky is." Old Edwards said.

Bai Jidong wanted to challenge Hardaway, so he began to show off dribbling in front of Hardaway.It's just that every time he changes direction, he can't control Hardaway's center of gravity.Hardaway seemed to be rooted in the floor, so steady that Bai Jidong couldn't hold back.

I have to force it!Everyone looked at Bai Jidong.

This is the first time he has played against a top player on the court, and nervousness is inevitable.

Bai Jidong's start is not fast, after accelerating, even Hardaway was surprised.how so fastHardaway suppressed the surprise in his heart, and when Bai Jidong almost broke through him, he touched Bai Weidong's ball and knocked it away.

Afterwards, Hardaway snatched Bai Jidong's ball, "Give it back to me!"

The speed of Bai Weidong's return to defense once again surprised Hardaway.Was this guy in track and field before?Hardaway couldn't believe that basketball players could run so fast.

But that's about it.

No matter how fast he ran, he couldn't stop me.

Hardaway made a change of direction in a dribble, swayed out of space and started again.If Bai Jidong had enough confrontation, he could block Hardaway back, but he didn't.

"Penny moment!" Magic Johnson exclaimed excitedly.Bai Jidong did not hesitate to foul Hardaway's ball.This is another wonderful moment that created Hardaway.Jump like a flying dragon, chop the ball like a god.Jumping from in front of Bai Weidong, he finished it on Bai Weidong's head.Hardaway's slam dunk!
"Don't say that," Bai Jidong whispered.

Hardaway was still excited, and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?" "Welcome to the NBA, don't say that."

Bai Jidong said softly. "You're so funny." Hardaway walked to the free throw line.

"Maybe the Bulls should consider switching defenses between Pippen and Bai Jidong." Megan said sharply: "Bai Jidong's speed cannot make up for his weakness in confrontation."

"Yes, if the confrontation is too poor, the speed will be useless." The magician said: "Basketball is still a sport full of confrontation after all."

"Michael, get ready," Jackson said.

Jordan stood up unhappily, "Useless guy! I still want to rest for a while." "Then you continue to rest?" Jackson asked.

"No." Jordan mocked. "I don't want to be 30 points behind when I go on the court."

The increasingly brave Hardaway made the Bulls unable to cope, and Jordan's absence made the Bulls' offense enter a state of constipation.

Pippen asked for the ball in a low position, and the moment he turned around and took the ball, he was cut off.The ball flew out and was caught by Hardaway.

His fast attack was once again blocked by Bai Jidong.Hardaway had to say: "You are really fast." "I would rather trade my speed for confrontation." These are Bai Jidong's sincere words.

Hardaway easily dealt with Bai Jidong's defense, and casually replied: "When your confrontation improves, your speed will benefit you infinitely." "With your words, I hope it will benefit me infinitely now." .” Bai Jidong stepped forward to force him.

"Defending with teeth and claws can't scare people." Hardaway teased the crazy Bai Jidong like a matador.

Bai Jidong soon found out that what he had done was futile.

"Yes, that's it. Stop and think about it slowly, how can you prevent me." Hadaway smiled and turned his back to Bai Weidong.

Hardaway's all-out attack aimed at Bai Jidong's weak resistance, but Bai Jidong was unable to stop him, and Hardaway pushed him out of the paint step by step.

Hardaway turned to the basket and was about to make a shot when Bai Jidong swung the ball with one hand and shot it down.Hardaway's offense was sabotaged, and Bai Jidong received his third foul.

"You only played for less than 3 minutes." Hardaway looked at the red hand.

Bai Jidong said: "I'm going to end." "You should end." Hardaway put his hands on his hips, "I don't want to get the reputation of bullying rookies." "Actually, you have already bullied me severely. "Bai Jidong dropped away.

Jordan saw Bai Weidong walking towards him in a lifeless manner, "You killed Chinaman, do you want everyone to know that you were blown up?" "I was blown up indeed." Bai Jidong Dong didn't deny it.

"Shouldn't you be blown up?" Jordan asked sharply.

Bai Jidong was speechless, and finally he could only say: "He is in very good condition now, I hope you persevere, and don't be blown up by others." "Joke, you think I'm you?" Jordan came on the stage.

Jordan had an immediate effect as soon as he played.Grabbed the ball with one hand from the outside line and shook the defense, then accelerated through one player, took off and flashed the two people in the air to score.

"Bye, don't worry, this is just an ordinary game." Edwards came to comfort Bai Jidong first.Hubble continued: "Even I was blown away, so it's nothing." "Why can't Michael comfort me like you guys?" Bai Jidong was in a much better mood.

"How do you know he didn't comfort you?" Hubble asked back.

Bai Jidong said: "I didn't say anything except he was disgusting." "With all due respect, that's his way of comforting people." Ron smiled wryly.

"Fuck!" Bai Jidong could only curse.
