Chapter 58 The high altitude you can never reach is forbidden to fly
The past few rounds have successfully proved that Sunset's Baron Davis can no longer stop Fancy's pace on his own. Although there are some accidental factors, he and Fancy are still stars of the same level.
However, even if Baron Davis returns to normal, he will not be able to produce the same value as Fancy in the game.
That's why he and Griffin hooked up.
The fact that two stars with elite-level or above abilities actually behaved like this fully proves that they have been forced into a corner.
Fanshi returned to the bench, and Kobe Bryant, who was wearing a suit, stood up and walked over to greet him, high-five and hug him.
He was very happy with Fan Xi's performance in the opening rounds. He patted Fan Xi on the shoulder and said: "As long as you defeat these two challengers, your miracle halo will shine even brighter, and those sour grapes who question your All-Star starting lineup will also
will disappear automatically."
"You are already on the high road."
Kobe accepts Fan Xi more and more, and he expects Fan Xi to become stronger and stronger.
This is very different from the early days of his career. At that time, he was arrogant and young. His relationship with Shaquille O'Neal, the league's number one center at the time, was full of resentment. In the end, he squeezed O'Neal away and went through several
After the season's record plummeted, he finally understood the importance of a good helper.
Now he gradually feels that he is unable to control the game. In his heart, Fan Xi is a surprise given to him by God.
He planned the time when he would gradually give up his core position, and he already had a "helping the horse to give him a ride" complex towards Fan Xi.
Phil Jackson is very pleased to see the two people who have such a harmonious relationship, and he is becoming more and more confident in establishing the fourth dynasty of his career this season.
However, the newly traded Mike Dunleavy had complaints.
He had just arrived and was not sure about Fanci's current status with the Lakers. Moreover, he was in a contract year and a new player, so he was eager to perform.
He deliberately said loudly on the bench: "Why don't you pass the ball to me? I'm obviously in a good opportunity to make a shot."
His words made everyone pay attention.
Because he was new here, Old Winter said to him in a good voice: "Our three-point attack on the wing has always been option C, with the top of the arc and the penalty area being the priority level."
Mike Dunleavy answered confidently: "That's because you didn't have a shooter as good as me before. I can provide the league's top firepower coverage."
Matt Barnes rolled his eyes at Dunleavy.
Dunleavy is indeed a good shooter, and being able to earn tens of millions of dollars in annual salary proves his ability.
However, in terms of shooting alone, he is only at the back of the league's first-line shooters. What makes him valuable is that he can provide cover quality that other shooters cannot provide.
His height and body are both at the power forward level.
After picking and rolling with the defender, it is difficult for the opponent to form a flanking attack on the defender who initiates the attack.
"Isn't our current shooting percentage 100%?" Barnes asked Dunleavy coldly.
Dunleavy was held up by Barnes.
Although Barnes is not well-known in the league, he is a very tough player, and many people are afraid that he will become confused.
Dunleavy is no exception.
He hesitated and stopped talking.
Beep!
The whistle soon sounded and the game continued.
The Clippers still had Baron Davis holding the ball, but this time when Fanshie took a step to defend and guided the bearded man deep, Blake Griffin stepped up and blocked Fanshie's path with his thick body.
Davis relied on the screen and went straight into the penalty area, and Lamar Odom had to switch defense.
At this moment, Griffin used his strong body to force Fanshi away and quickly rushed into the penalty area.
Fan Xi had already sensed something was wrong, and he quickly swooped over. Using his amazing sense of smell, he jumped up and stretched out his arms, intending to block Davis' pass from the source.
Fan Xi's sense of smell is correct.
But his jumping ability is not enough, and Davis' passing arc is very high, which Fanshie can't touch at all.
When he landed, he turned around and saw Griffin flying high in the sky like a roc spreading its wings, creating a full visual effect.
boom!
He grabbed the basketball with both hands and smashed it into the basket.
The entire basketball stand shook and rattled because of his violent dunk.
This was the first time since Fan Xi entered the NBA that he was shocked by purely visual effects. He had seen many dunks, but none of them were so violent or terrifying.
He even took a breath.
He suspected that Griffin had a beast inside him.
After Griffin landed, he couldn't help roaring and beating his chest excitedly.
And he yelled at Fan Xi: "This is a height you can never reach!"
The No. 1 pick showed his most vivid talent.
Fan Xi was not frightened by him.
He is not the same Fan Xi as before, because he has confidence, he knows that he will definitely be able to dunk like this in the future, and he has no doubt about the energy aura in his mind.
So, he said to Griffin: "What a pity, you jump like a toad."
In a voice of regretful sarcasm, Fancy 'reconstructs' what Griffin is most proud of.
This is trash talk at its highest level.
As expected, Griffin became very irritable.
No one wants to become a toad.
Especially toads.
Griffin couldn't wait to dunk Fan Xi again immediately.
But Fanci had already received the serve from Barnes, and he walked towards the front court, moving slowly and calmly, showing the demeanor of a general.
This is the reason why Phil Jackson is so optimistic about Fan Xi. Fan Xi is energetic and aggressive, but he does not have the arrogance of youth. His calm thinking is what Phil Jackson values most. Because there are too many talented young people ruining the world.
In arrogance and arrogance.
Fan Xi arrives at the frontcourt.
He wanted Mike Dunleavy to come over to cover, but what people didn't expect was that when he gave the signal, Dunleavy didn't come over. Instead, he circled around and bypassed the baseline.
Fanci had to cover with Odom.
Odom's screen quality has never been high. After all, he used to play point guard, and he is agile but not strong enough.
So, that's why Vanshey reached the free throw line and was quickly blocked by Griffin, and then Davis attacked viciously.
Both men were strong representatives. They violently interfered with Fan Xi, intending to steal the basketball directly from Fan Xi's hands, even using foul methods.
Fan Xi's chest was hit hard by Davis with his elbow. He hoped that Fan Xi would suffer pain and expose his flaws.
But unexpectedly, when Fan Xi was struck by severe pain, instead of bending down, she straightened up her chest even more... This was beyond Davis' expectation.
While being tough, Fan Xi also made smart changes. His basketball was secretly played by Chen Cang... Bang!
It hit the ground directly, and it came from Davis' crotch.
The bearded man only felt a chill under his crotch, and then the basketball disappeared from sight.
At this time, Lamar Odom had already caught the basketball, but his mind was habitually confused. Instead of rushing in for a layup, he chose a jump shot... Bang!
Basketball strikes, DeAndre Jordan picks off the rebound.
The Lakers' attack was fruitless.
Tactical coordination was completely disrupted.
Phil Jackson frowned.
Old Winter also reminded Dunleavy: Move! Move!
Mike Dunleavy kept running forward, but he didn't seem to hear him. As a veteran who has been in the NBA for almost ten years and comes from a basketball family, he thought he understood the operating logic of the NBA very well... which is to apply extreme pressure.
When you first arrive, how to establish your own interests is to not cooperate.
It is best to find a soft persimmon and let others know that you are not easy to mess with, and then they will cater to you, and then you will prosper.
This time, the soft persimmon he found was Fan Xi.
He felt that this undrafted guy with a great name but a shallow foundation might not be able to compete with him who was educated at home.
Phil Jackson wants to replace Dunleavy directly. Even if he replaces Luke Walton, the team will run healthier...Luke Walton, who is also white, also has a family background.
His father is even more famous than Dunleavy Sr. He is the most famous super center in league history, Bill Walton, who once established a huge foundation with the Boston Celtics.
It's just that according to the NBA's father-son law, for every player whose father is a superstar, his son must be mediocre. But for a player who is mediocre, his son can shock four players and become a superstar.
Luke Walton's original height is not as good as his father's, probably because he was neutralized by his mother. He can only play small forward, and his back-up skills are not as good as his father's, but he is very good at assisting and assisting, and his mid-range is pretty good.
Can.
Kobe Bryant stopped Phil Jackson from doing this.
He said to Zen Master: "If you want Jack to become a superstar and the future leader of the Lakers, you'd better not interfere."
"Believe Jack, he can handle this matter."
Invisibly, Kobe has already raised his standards for Fan Xi, and he has long viewed Fan Xi with the same eyesight as his successor.
boom!
Another dunk occurred in the frontcourt.
This time it's Baron Davis.
It's still Davis and Griffin working together.
Griffin rushed to the three-point line to cover Davis. The quality of his cover was not high, but he moved to cover and even hugged Fanshie.
However, the referee did not see it.
Davis broke free from Fanshie's defense and went straight into the penalty area. When Lamar Odom wasn't paying attention, he soared into the sky... Boom!
His dunks are not as aggressive as when he was young, but he still has a violent demeanor.
There were bursts of cheers at the scene.
Griffin and Davis completed dunks one after another.
Davis also beat his chest and said harsh words to Fan Xi: "You will never be able to dunk in actual combat!!"
They tried to provoke Fan Xi and make Fan Xi rush into the penalty area.
However, Fan Xi was very calm.
There was no sign of any fluctuations on his face. He had received a good Chinese family education since he was a child. His parents had told him early on that "the only man who does not change his appearance when the mountain collapses".
"Talent is talent! Tricks are tricks! So-called miracles are nothing but illusions in the face of absolute talent."
At this moment, Charles Barkley spoke plausibly in front of the camera.
He tried to use sharp words to cut through the TV audience's expectations for Fan Xi, so that the TV audience would follow his words and no longer have expectations for Fan Xi.
However, Kenny Smith said: "The game is not just about dunks. If Davis and Griffin can deal with Jack alone, will they shamelessly double-check Jack on both offense and defense? And they also use a lot of foul actions!"
"As long as the referee doesn't call it, you can't say it's an illegal screen, let alone any dirty moves. You and I have both played in the NBA and know how to survive in the NBA. Toughness is necessary. Why do you call NBA
Do miracles have to be cared for like flowers in a greenhouse?" Buckley retorted plausibly.
I know clearly that what he said is unreasonable.
But he did have the upper hand at this point.
Phil Knight sat in the locker room, his smile getting stronger and stronger.
As Griffin and Davis completed dunks one after another.
He said something meaningful: "Madam, do you know what attracts fans most on the court?"
Wu Su said nothing.
"It's a dunk, it's flying off the surface of the earth." Phil Knight asked and answered himself.
He said: "Why is Michael Jordan's brand successful? Because he is a flying man. The Air Force One we built for him is still selling well all over the world. People yearn to break away from gravity and fly in the air. Michael Jordan used his energy to implement
This dream. He is the most exciting dunk god in the world. He makes basketball an aerial game."
"Just now, when Griffin and Davis dunked, the crowd cheered the loudest. This is the charm of dunks."
"Jack is good at everything, but he only lacks the ability to do some aerial work. His jumping is too ordinary. If he can take off like Jordan, I dare say his commercial value will at least double, and we will also agree to everything you have
Require."
Phil Knight said confidently.
He seemed to have a winning chance.
At this time, Wu Su, who had been listening calmly, suddenly turned her head and asked Phil Knight: "How do you know that my son can't fly?"
The words just fell.
Snapped!
A loud sound came from the stadium.
Fanshie passed the ball into the penalty area during the double attack, but Griffin jumped up and slapped him out of the field.
There was another burst of cheers and screams at the scene.
"Isn't it obvious?" Phil Knight spread his palms and said to Wu Su: "Madam, I know you love and trust your son very much. However, we cannot ignore the basic facts. If Jack jumps well, he will
His aerial work will not be interfered by the opponent, and he can easily jump up to complete the pass or layup."
"But now he can only use ground operations when facing a flanking attack."
Phil Knight said in that "helpless and cold" tone.
He believed that he had completely taken the initiative, and he waited for Wu Su to think clearly before accepting his previous proposal.
Because, the initiative is not all on her side.
At this moment, when Fanci walked to the sideline to serve, an accident suddenly happened next door. Kanye West suddenly attacked Taylor Swift, which even affected Taylor's father and Fanci's father.
