Chapter 22 Jordan's Successor



Chapter 22 Jordan's Successor

From the time Bai Jidong left the court, he didn't get a chance to play until the end of the game. He just watched Anfernee Hardaway bury the Bulls on his own from the bench.

"In the absence of Shaquille O'Neal, the Magic still defeated the Bulls. Anfernee Hardaway staged a wonderful performance! 36 points, 5 rebounds, 4 steals and 2 blocks! The comprehensive performance helped them defend the home court!"

白已冬上场3分钟,数据是0、0、0除了犯规和失误都是0。这是他六场以来最差的一场。

He didn't listen to Phil Jackson's post-game summary. Jordan spoke highly of Hardaway's performance in an interview with the media after the game: "I still say that, if the league insists on me choosing a successor, Penny will be My first choice."

"What's wrong?" Chen Qi rarely saw Bai Jidong so depressed.

Bai Jidong said: "You also watched the game, I played horrible." "I did, but isn't that normal? Don't you think about how old Hardaway is, how old are you? One year old can widen the gap , not to mention you are four or five years younger." Chen Qi said.

"Don't be sorry," said Pippen.

Bai Jidong didn't speak, and Pippen continued: "MJ and I were taught a lesson by that guy. It was just a match. We didn't play well. We'll get it back when we meet next time." Come back?" Bai Jidong tried his best to read it again.

"Yes, get it back next time! We have to play Magic a few more times, and there are plenty of opportunities." Pippen comforted.

"It makes sense! It makes sense!" Bai Jidong's eyes lit up.

Pippen asked: "So, are you going to continue to worry about this game, or kick the bad mood away and get ready for the next game?" "Of course the latter! I'm ready! I want to play! "Bai Jidong said excitedly.

"Very good!" Pippen snapped his fingers, expressing that Bai Jidong can be taught.

"You play like shit, I hope I don't have to remind you." On the way back to the hotel, Jordan berated the team.He is a man who hates failure terribly.Of course, he didn't play well tonight, but no one was stupid enough to accuse him.

In the end, Jordan pointed the finger at Bai Jidong, and Bai Jidong wanted to accept his criticism, but what he said was too harsh: "You can't fight well either! Anfernee Hardaway is taking whatever he wants on the top of your bald head." " "What did you say?" Jordan's eyes looked murderous. "Don't say bad words a second time." Bai Jidong sat in his original position.

Jackson silently paid attention to what happened around him, probably only Bai Jidong, an inexperienced kid, dared to contradict Jordan like this.

The others couldn't help sweating for him, but Jordan laughed coldly, "I really shouldn't be arguing with a brat like you!"

It wasn't until Bai Jidong returned to the hotel that he realized what a terrible thing he had done. What does it mean to offend Jordan in the Bulls?He couldn't sleep at all.

"Should I apologize to him?" Bai Jidong got off the bed, ran to Jordan's door and knocked.

Jordan is different from other players. His room in the hotel is a single room, and he lives alone. This is his way of protecting privacy.

After a while, the door opened.

Jordan stared at Bai Jidong covered in sweat, "What's the matter?" "I apologize to you, I shouldn't have said those words on the bus tonight. I had a bad phone call tonight, and I wasn't in a good mood, so." Bai Jidong The language was not organized at all, and it was a bit incoherent in front of Jordan.

Jordan wiped his sweat: "Come in."

Jordan's room has some gym equipment for upper-body strength.Obviously, he had been practicing for a while, so he was sweating so much.

Bai Jidong sat down unnaturally, Jordan picked up a disposable plastic cup and poured himself a cup of boiling water: "You did say something that embarrassed me." "I'm sorry." Bai Jidong said.

"But you're right." Jordan took a sip of water. "You don't need to apologize, you are not wrong."

Jordan said: "I won't remember it either. When I wake up tomorrow, yesterday's page will be turned." "Bai Jidong never thought that Jordan was a generous person.

"Sports Illustrated is best to read less, they always write about things that don't exist." Jordan said without changing his face.

Bai Jidong wanted to laugh but couldn't. This "Sports Illustrated" published the famous "Jordan Embarrasses Baseball" when Jordan retired to play baseball for the first time.Jordan flew into a rage at the time and has since stopped accepting interviews with Sports Illustrated.

This incident fully reflects Jordan's tolerance.This is a guy who can hold grudges for a lifetime. If he doesn't make it clear to him at night, Bai Jidong's life in the Bulls will not be easy.

"If nothing else, you can go back," Jordan said.But Bai Jidong didn't want to leave: "Actually, I still have something to do." "Let's talk, finish it once." Qiao Dan was a little impatient.Bai Jidong said: "Do you really think Hardaway is your successor?"

"Without a doubt," Jordan said firmly. "What about me?" Bai Jidong asked brazenly, "What do you think of me? Can I be your successor?" "You?" Jordan opened his eyes wide.

"Yes! Me!" Bai Jidong confirmed.

Jordan smiled, laughing like a bell ringing, smiling brightly like the sun shining on the earth, like the rising sun blooming towards the sky.

Seeing Jordan holding his stomach, Bai Jidong couldn't stop laughing.

The embarrassed Bai Jidong quickly fled here, "I'm leaving" "Slow down! Slow down! Hahaha~~~" Qiao Dan laughed without restraint.

"Morning, successor." After that night, Jordan called Bai Weidong the damned successor.

Bai Jidong asked Jordan to change his name many times, but the more he called, the more fluent and addictive he became.

"Michael, what is a successor?" Everyone in the Bulls was full of curiosity.

Jordan said: "Our rookie knocked on my room last night and told me he was going to be my successor." "Well, early, successor." Pippen quickly played this meme, " Bye, there are many successors to Jordan in the league, you have to knock them down one by one." "Fuck! I don't want to be the successor!" Bai Jidong cursed angrily.

10:00 in the morning
The Bulls team arrived in Chicago, Bai Jidong's expression was not very good, he was called the successor all morning.He now feels that the word "successor" is very harsh.

In the afternoon, Phil Jackson called the players to start daily training.

Bai Jidong was ravaged by Jordan one after another during training, every time Jordan scored on him, he sprayed: "Be tougher! Successor!" "I will not be your successor!" Bai Jidong yelled.

Jordan said: "Successors are sacred. Since you have chosen this path, there is no escape. Therefore, you will always be my successor."

After a team match, Bai Jidong does individual training, recalling yesterday's game while dribbling.

There are two things that impressed Hardaway the most.Mid-range and long-range shots after pick-and-rolls and low-post turnaround jumpers.

"Want to be lazy? Rookie!" asked shooting coach Chris Morvin.

After listening to the overtime worker for a day, Bai Jidong felt that the title rookie was too kind.He was very willing to kiss Mo Wen's face, but considering Mo Wen's awkward face and the danger of being suspected of being gay, Bai Jidong did not do it in the end.

"I was thinking, can I practice shooting as accurately as Anfernee Hardaway?" Bai Jidong's idea seemed to Mo Wen to be whimsical.

"This idea is too bad!" Mo Wen said, "You should practice the three-pointer as accurately as Reggie Miller, and practice the mid-range as deadly as Michael." "Yes!" Bai Jidong's eyes one light.

Mo Wen slapped him on the head: "That's shit! It's not bad if you can practice stable open shots."

Bai Jidong was doused in cold water: "Why? As long as I practice hard, I will definitely be able to do it!" "There are too many things that are futile." Mo Wen sighed.

"As long as you can become as strong as Scott and the others, plus the ability to catch and shoot open-handed, I think you will become a star player." Mo Wen said: "God has given you enough talent."

"What if I can practice shooting like Michael?" Bai Jidong asked.

"If you really practice shooting." Mo Wen said seriously: "Then Jordan's successor is no longer a joke."
