Chapter 137 The Powerful Showdown

Now that David has come to the Grizzlies, he must still have some shadows on O'Neal. What's more important is that he is afraid that Jiang Dongbing will be disappointed in him.

The reason why he firmly supports David's beliefs makes him feel that he will become a superstar sooner or later is Jiang Dongbing.

He failed to play in the rookie season, and David's mother also comforted David by not being able to play under Jiang Dongbing.

But now he has come to Jiang Dongbing's men. If he is still beaten by O'Neal this time, David doesn't know how to deal with himself.

Although David currently has an average of 18 points and 13 rebounds this season, it is definitely not enough to compare with the terrifying O'Neal.

This season, O'Neal's data is currently close to 30 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks. If you think this is O'Neal's limit, it would be too naive. You should know that he has only 21 shots per game. If he is given more phone calls, his score can even continue to rise.

Although it is impossible to average nearly 40 shots per game like Chamberlain, if O'Neal averages more than five shots per game, the score would be too terrifying.

"Don't worry, Shaq is not as strong as you think."

"And don't underestimate yourself now. Your strength is improving. Although you may not be as good as Shaq now, how many years have he played? How many years have you played? Even if you lose to him, it's normal." Jiang Dongbing could guess David's concerns, so he couldn't help but comfort him.

David's attributes have been improved a lot recently, but there is still some gap between the distance reaching the limit. When his attributes can reach the limit, perhaps he can truly compete with a bug player like O'Neal.

So in this game, Jiang Dongbing didn't really care about the win or loss of David and O'Neal's duel. What he cared more about is that the Grizzlies could beat the Lakers.

Under normal circumstances, the beginning of this season is actually the starting point of the Lakers dynasty. After the Bulls dynasty ended, the Spurs won a championship, followed by the Lakers dynasty.

However, the Spurs failed to win the championship last season, and the championship was taken down by the Grizzlies led by Jiang Dongbing.

Although the Grizzlies are very strong now, the Lakers are not soft persimmons. Since they can build a dynasty, their strength is naturally worthy of Jiang Dongbing's attention.

"Okay, guys, come here." Jiang Dongbing clapped his hands and summoned his generals to make pre-match arrangements.

The generals walked to Jiang Dongbing, and Jiang Dongbing first said to Bilups: "Changxi, your opponent tonight will be either Ron Harper or Fisher."

"I don't think I need to teach you how to fight, right?"

Billups laughed and said, "No, when facing Harper, we mainly organize the offense. When facing Fisher, we look for opportunities to attack alone."

Jiang Dongbing nodded with satisfaction. The ball quotient of these stars is actually very high, so there is no need to say anything else, they know what to do on the court.

Ron Harper is a player brought by Zen Master Jackson from the Bulls. He is the starter of the Bulls Dynasty. His defensive strength is extremely strong. Even Billups now may not be able to beat the elderly Harper.

Harper at his peak had sufficient offensive firepower and could average 23 points per game in his rookie season. Before going to the Bulls, he could generally guarantee that he would average about 20 points per game in the season.

Unfortunately, after arriving at the Bulls, thinking about the Bulls' forward and guard lineup, Jordan and Pippen, there is no chance for Harper to have a mobile phone, so he simply transformed into a pure defensive player.

Although this transformation has declined extremely sharply in all aspects, and averaged only seven or eight points per game, his value is highlighted. Strong backcourt defense is definitely an indispensable and important role for the Bulls.

Interestingly, Harper is not actually a point guard, he is a forward guard swinger, but considering that both Jordan and Pippen have passes and control abilities, he actually plays the No. 1 position in the Bulls, but the offense and organization that should be available at the No. 1 position does not need him to do. The only thing he needs to do is defense.

Faced with such a player who relies entirely on defense to make a living, even Billups dare not be careless.

But Harper is too old now, and he is already thirty-five years old, and it is unlikely that he will stay on the court for too long. Fisher should be divided into half of the number one position.

In addition, there is Tyron Lu in the Lakers' lineup now, that is, Grandpa Lu, who may also get some playing time.

According to the appearance of different players, Billups had already thought of a countermeasure himself, which made Jiang Dongbing very satisfied.

When he first came to the Grizzlies, Billups' personality was actually not very likable, but after this season's accumulation, Billups has now matured a lot and has gradually felt like a superstar.

"Stephen, Ron, you two are responsible for defending Kobe and Glen Rice. Are there any problems?" Jiang Dongbing asked again.

The two of them answered in unison: "No problem!"

Jackson's defense is already at the top level in the league. For Artest, although his attributes have not reached the limit yet, there is definitely no problem for him to defend the older Glenn Rice.

Artest's ultimate defensive potential is actually a little higher than Jackson. Jiang Dongbing is looking forward to Artest's full growth.

"Jermaine, you should try to take as much as possible tonight, because you are against Ac Green. If you can't even beat the 40-year-old Ac Green, isn't that a bit too unreasonable?" Jiang Dongbing smiled.

Xiao Ao nodded quickly. The fourth position should be the Lakers' shortcomings now and the Grizzlies' best attack point. If he cannot gain an advantage in the process of playing against Ac Green, it is really unreasonable, just as Jiang Dongbing said.

Of course, Green is less than forty years old, but now she is thirty-seven. Xiao Ao is at the age of young and strong, and his strength is far stronger than Green. There will be no suspense in this group of confrontations.

"David, you can play as you like tonight, don't put too much pressure on yourself. You have to know that you are facing the strongest center in this league, and maybe even the best center in the entire NBA history." Jiang Dongbing once again appeased David.

Everyone knew the pressure David was under. If they were in David's situation, they would probably feel extremely nervous now, so they patted David on the shoulder and spoke inspiration.

...

The Grizzlies fans at the scene were already impatient. When the Grizzlies players appeared, they immediately set off a wave of heat at the scene. The fans screamed and applauded wildly, cheering for the home team.

Jiang Dongbing looked across the stadium and saw only O'Neal and Kobe who looked dissatisfied.
