All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball Chapter 36: One conversation that changed fate
"I’mBack!"
Two generations of Su Feng knows how shocking Jordan’s comeback will be.
However, because he knew the reasons for the plot in advance, Su Feng thought that his heart would not cause too much disturbance.
However, Su Feng soon discovered:
I am still too young.
Only by being here can you experience firsthand that until March 1995, when Michael Jordan announced his comeback, the earthquake brought you the most intuitive impact.
All TV stations in the United States, no matter what news or program they are broadcasting, stop at this moment.
And this kind of news treatment usually only appears when the leader of the rice family is assassinated and the Gulf War.
When the figure of Michael Jordan appeared on TV, people were at first at a loss, then nostalgic, and then unstoppable excitement.
At Bryant's house, when Su Feng, Kobe and Kobe's father Joe saw the news, Su Feng noticed the changes in the expressions of the father and son.
Kobe's body was trembling, trembling uncontrollably.
Joe slowly put down the can of Coke in his hand, and Su Feng noticed an obvious dent on the can.
Balls of flames seemed to gush out from Kobe's chest at this moment.
Joe, who was sitting on the sofa, kept shaking his legs, and his breathing became more and more rapid.
"I’mBack!"
He.
Michael Jordan.
is back!
The whole North America went crazy!
All endorsements and commercial stocks related to Jordan skyrocketed instantly.
At the same time, the top seven bookmakers in North America immediately revised the Chicago Bulls’ winning odds from 1 to 40 to 1 to 5.
The next remaining tickets for the Bulls, whether at home or away, are all sold out.
NBC TV station urgently adjusted Jordan’s live broadcast plan for the Pacers in the first game of Jordan’s comeback, from the original live broadcast of only half of the United States to a national broadcast.
The front pages of all newspapers published photos of Michael Jordan on the next day, along with his classic "I’mBack!"
All major TV stations and newspapers are urgently mobilizing basketball reporters they can mobilize, and then these people have only one task:
flew to Chicago to bring back first-hand reports about Jordan.
What kind of public opinion influence is this?
What kind of energy is this?
How popular is this?
As we all know, this is an era without social networks.
However, the chain reaction triggered by Jordan's comeback this time is quite rare even in the future.
Some people say that Michael Jordan was officially named God only after the last three consecutive years.
But in fact, in March 1995, when he announced his comeback, he had already taken the position of God.
The NBA is shaking.
The four major North American sports leagues are shaking.
If David Stern personally took out the great **** Michael Jordan, then now, this little Jewish man can't believe what he saw.
Even if the NBA has learned about Jordan’s comeback in advance, even if Stern has made countless plans, but in front of Jordan...
These are not worth mentioning.
The entire United States has gone crazy.
All the superstars in the NBA are under pressure suddenly.
Among them, the defending champion Houston Mosaic bears the brunt.
As soon as Jordan announced his comeback, people wanted to interview Dameng and Tang Shuai.
But Su Feng knows...
At the moment, Tang Shuai is still making big moves.
So, Mosaic chose silence this time.
Countless Qiao Mis can't stop their inner excitement.
Look, no matter how lively you played before.
Now, let us watch the ending.
For the United States, which is in an unemployment crisis at this time, when learning about Jordan’s return, the leader of the Milijia family, K’s Eagle Sauce even said excitedly in an interview: “Jordan’s return will add 10 million to the United States Jobs."
What the Mayor of Chicago wants to do most at this moment is to hug Jordan and kiss him, because he knows that Chicago’s economy has survived LEI again!
ahem.
All in all...
But Su Feng has no culture.
, I'm in the world.
……
, just as Su Feng was calming the shock that Jordan brought to him when he came back, aside...
Kobe suddenly said: "I have decided."
Su Feng turned his head and glanced at Kobe, and then sent Kobe the O'Neill question mark emoji package.
Brother, what have you decided?
"I want to skip college and bring my talent directly into the NBA!" Kobe looked at Su Feng seriously, seriously and without joking.
Su Feng: "......"
um...
Hmm.
Actually, Su Feng really wants to tell Kobe, you don’t need to tell me about this, I already knew it.
But in this life, after becoming friends with Kobe, Su Feng can be regarded as breaking the rumors about why Kobe skipped college and entered the NBA directly.
In fact, in Su Feng's previous life, there are many versions of the conjecture about why Bryant skipped college.
And Kobe himself and many Kobe biographies usually use:
"I must have a fair contest with him on the court before he retires!" Kobe said excitedly to Su Feng.
Su Feng is not stupid, he knows that Kobe is talking about Michael Jordan.
Although the NBA allows players to skip college at this time, Su Feng, who is familiar with history, knows very well that even in this period, players who skip college are different in the NBA.
In 1974, Moses Malone, who graduated from high school, could not bear to see his mother work hard because of his poor family, so he decided to skip college and make a lot of money.
In 1989, Sean Camp, who sacrificed his IQ in exchange for his basketball talent, believed that since he could not even pass the college exam by cheating, he might as well play in the NBA.
Add Dallobbie and Wilkens, yes, before 1995, high school students in the NBA were so rare, all of them were giant pandas.
Therefore, players who dare to skip college and go directly to the NBA are either talented or have reasons to skip college.
But Su Feng remembers very clearly that in 1995, there will be Garnett, in 1996, there will be Kobe and O'Neal, and in 1997 there will be Tracy McGrady.
And in the future, there will be a lot of players who will run for the election halfway through college.
You know, this is not the future.
This is the 90s. Players at this time usually play in college for 3 to 4 years before joining the NBA.
Even Vince Carter studied at university for three years, not to mention Duncan. After finishing college, "Stone Buddha" slowly joined the NBA.
From the perspective of the quality of the draft, in addition to the well-known Golden Generation in 1996, the quality of the drafts in 1997 and 1998 was also very high.
So, what is the reason that these talented basketball wizards can't wait to play in the NBA?
You know, in 1995, the NBA had already introduced new regulations.
Now, rookies can no longer ask for prices like before.
In fact, in Su Feng’s previous life, many keyboard men and experts in the future will come to the same conclusion when organizing biographies and recalling the past:
That is, people in the 90s seem to be very clever.
Different concepts of the times have caused many misunderstandings.
After Jordan announced his comeback, for these young talents, it was like adding a **** BUFF to them invisibly.
Damn, Jordan is back!
go, brothers, copy guys!
Yes, for many newcomers who joined the NBA after Jordan's comeback, they have a belief, that is:
The labor and management are fighting Jordan!
If the head is not iron, it will be a boy in vain.
Although not everyone has this mentality, there are indeed many young talents who joined the NBA with this idea during this period.
Before Michael Jordan retired, he fought with Jordan.
Su Feng's previous life, many people think that Kobe joined the NBA in a hurry to hammer Hardaway, in order to avenge Hardaway for not giving him an autographed photo.
But actually...
At this time, Kobe didn't know that Hardaway would be reimbursed for the season in the future. For the young Kobe, Hardaway was also young at the time, and Kobe had a chance to fight Hardaway.
You know, after Kobe joined the NBA, his most exciting moment was when he played against Jordan.
Including the No. 1 pick Allen Iverson in 1996.
These young people seem to be possessed, and they all want to fight Jordan.
and Jordan is always coming.
Because of Jordan's second comeback, it seems to have become a sign, a symbol.
Chicago has become a new basketball mecca. Facing these young pilgrims, Jordan did not tell them that the future is yours...
Because the greatest pleasure of "old gangsters" is to leave a shadow in the hearts of these newcomers.
Come on, children, work harder, you will soon surpass me!
If you have seen the NBA in the 90s, you know how "black belly" Jordan is.
He is like a senior with a "bad taste". He is not tired of singles out with newcomers and is deeply involved.
And the newcomers are also happy to play against Jordan, because if you score the same as Jordan, you can tell your friends: I and Jordan are 55 open.
Su Feng's impression of the most miserable newcomer is the famous NBA supporting actor-Stackhouse.
咦, how come there are such things everywhere?
Don’t be surprised, if it is said that it is a shame to be defeated one-on-one by Kobe before Kobe’s candidacy, then Stackhouse was publicly executed after he made a rude to Jordan.
In the 95/96 season, Stackhouse, who averaged 19.2 points per game, felt that he was invincible, so he ran to the media and said: I am not afraid of Jordan, I can prevent Jordan from death, he is no longer The old Jordan is.
Then, after learning about it, Jordan destroyed Stackhouse's confidence in the game against the 76ers.
Faced with his North Carolina junior, Jordan scored 48 points and prevented Stackhouse with only 12 points.
At that time, in order to avoid being abused in the future, Stackhouse had to say sincerely after the game: "My brother has a very hot temper. I hope he will not be so hot in the future..."
In addition, Jordan has many famous cases of training newcomers, such as Payton...
Of course, there are exceptions.
That is Jordan is very fond of Kobe.
Because facing his imitator, Jordan feels that his past perseverance is worthwhile. Look, even if I'm gone in the future, people in the world can think of me as long as they see Kobe...
My disciple Kobe, can fight the entire league!
ahem, it's farther away.
……
Bryant’s family, listening to Kobe’s classic line, Su Feng acted very cooperatively: "Are you serious?"
Kobe nodded, "Of course I'm serious! I'm going to skip college, I must fight Michael."
Su Feng pretended to be shocked and took a breath, and then gave Kobe a thumbs up.
Come on!
Kobe!
Look at you!
While Su Feng was thinking about how to perform next, Kobe suddenly looked at Su Feng and asked: "By the way, Su, have you considered your future? Do you want to go to college? Where are you going to go? Universities."
Su Feng was stunned.
Then.
he...
is petrified.
"!!!"
because at the moment Kobe asked him this question, in his mind:
"System: Now is the time to plan your NBA route!"
