Jordan was asked.

Because compared to his first comeback, no matter how you look at it, Jordan's second comeback is more like an act of "gamble".

First of all, the media is constantly blaming him. In the face of the media's constant barrage, how could Jordan endure others spraying him with "If you can do it, go ahead, if you can't, don't do it"?

Secondly, there is the pressure that these young people put on Jordan at the beginning of the century. As the last golden period of the era when Stern was in charge of the NBA, it is no exaggeration to say that the NBA at this time really has no shortage of stars.

And there is no shortage of superstars.

Try to think about it, if you were Jordan, could you stand the media using these young talents to squeeze you every day?

Of course, in addition to the above reasons, there are many reasons for Jordan's second comeback.

But one thing is for sure.

That is that Jordan did not set a clear goal for his second comeback at the beginning, which is the cliché of setting the tone.

No matter what excuses he makes for himself in future interviews, it cannot change this fact.

Because whether it is leading the Wizards, who had only 19 wins in the 2000/01 season, back to the playoffs, or selling tickets, those can only be classified as team goals, not his personal goals.

And this can also be seen from the comeback plan Jordan prepared for himself from the beginning.

As we all know, according to Boss Joe's original idea, he originally planned to restart the training camp this summer. After restoring his physical function to a certain level, he would then kill everyone like he did when he came back for the first time.

Unfortunately, he never expected that Artest would come out and break his ribs.

But having said that, even if Artest is not killed in the middle, can his plan be successfully realized?

The answer is obviously no.

In fact, as a 38-year-old veteran, averaging 20 points per game for two consecutive seasons is not bad. It is even considered to be quite explosive in the entire history of the NBA.

But there is no way, who makes him Michael Jordan, who can only shrug his shoulders and pretend to be cool, but can't spread his hands and kneel down in a shocking way?

Therefore, at this moment, Michael Jordan, who has been blessed with honors, was questioned by Wang Shuo, a rookie coach.

Because Jordan really hasn't thought about this, or in his opinion, he needs to think about this?

May I ask, which era was the most glorious era for centers in NBA history?

Answer: In the 1990s, the four major centers complemented each other. You sang and I took the stage.

Then let me ask again, can any of them beat Jordan?

Answer, no.

What's Patrick - bitter haha ​​background - Ewing, "The Admiral" - hugging Duncan's thigh to win the championship - Robinson, or "Big Dream" - I will win consecutive championships as soon as you retire - Olajuwon, Shaq - swept

-O'Neal, who hasn't been severely beaten by Boss Joe?

As a long-person sport, since basketball was invented, tall people have an overwhelming advantage over short people.

Therefore, in the development process of basketball, people will try every means and introduce various rules to restrict these elders.

But even in the 1990s when centers were the most brilliant and of the highest quality, no one could cross the mountain of Jordan.

So, now back to the original question, Jordan, does he need to think so much?

At least in Jordan's view, as long as he practices hard for three months in this summer's training camp, the next moment will be when he continues to reap cheers and praises.

It's a pity that he underestimated the enemy of time after all.

"In my defensive framework, Michael, you have a more important task." Looking at Jordan who was stunned by his question, Wang Shuo smiled slightly and said.

Look, what is the art of language?

Wang Shuo knew very well that based on Jordan's character, if he didn't change his approach, Jordan would never cooperate with the tactics he was going to talk about next.

Wang Shuo couldn't change Jordan's character.

Because if he were not so competitive, Jordan might not be able to achieve the honor he has today.

Continuing to play with the round magnets on the tactical board, Wang Shuo smiled and said: "If we use this defensive tactic for most of the new season, then we must take into account a weakness that this defensive tactic can never solve.

"

Looking at the tactical board, Jordan and Unseld's eyes suddenly lit up.

In the four-guarantee-one system, since the other four players will often be in a mismatched state, and one wing needs to expand the defensive range, in this system, there will inevitably be a big problem with backcourt rebounds.

Unseld was nicknamed "The Bone Crusher" when he was playing, and he won the rebounding title. Naturally, you can see the problem at a glance.

As for Jordan, with his extremely high golf quotient, he immediately understood what task Wang Shuo planned to entrust to him.

"The way to solve this weakness is very simple, that is, through a lot of practice in daily training, let the inside develop the habit of blocking the forward players. Because in defense, Michael can be in a position to observe the dynamics of the court at all times, so

You are the best person to solve this weakness." Looking at Jordan, Wang Shuo said.

Seeing this, Jordan touched his chin and began to think.

On the sidelines, Unseld offered timely support: "Next season, Michael is undoubtedly the most experienced player in our team, and he is indeed the best candidate."

As a rebounding expert, Unseld knew exactly what Wang Shuo's tactic would bring to Jordan.

If nothing else, at least Jordan's rebounding data will definitely be very good.

Of course, the reason why he chose to help Wang Shuo at this moment was not because what Wang Shuo said today had impressed him.

As the saying goes, stance determines everything.

In the new season, the Wizards need Jordan to boost the market, and the team owner also hopes that Jordan's comeback can boost the team's market value. Therefore, after listening to Wang Shuo's speech so far, Unseld knows that as long as Jordan himself can recover to a certain level,

level, under this tactical system, Jordan's personal data in the new season will definitely not be bad.

As for the team’s results in the new season?

Wake up, no one really believes that the Wizards, who only won 19 games this season, can compete for the championship in the new season, right?

Unseld is not stupid. As the general manager of the team, his first job is to serve the team owner. Therefore, in his opinion, as long as the Wizards' record can rebound to a certain extent in the new season, Jordan can produce good data to attract

The fans are enough.

Anyway, you, Jordan, chose the head coach yourself. Therefore, since Wang Shuo has proposed a plan that is indeed feasible in Unseld's opinion, why do you still want to make things difficult for him?

But, where in the world can such perfect tactics come from?

In fact, Wang Shuo himself knows very well that there are big problems in both the offensive and defensive framework he proposed today.

But, when have you ever seen a real estate developer tell you about the problems with your house when selling it?

Right now, Wang Shuo's first priority is to get that crucial ticket.

Because only after getting that ticket can he perfect various details step by step.

What is obvious is that at least he passed the first level today.

Next, during discussions about the development of the Wizards' new season, Unseld asked for his opinion many times.

Wang Shuo was actively involved in a series of issues including which players the Wizards would need to try out next, the Wizards' preliminary roster for the new season, and potential trades.

However, at every critical moment, Wang Shuo would start to be vague.

As for the reason?

It's also very simple.

Because Wang Shuo knows very well that in the NBA, many things cannot be decided by the head coach, and what's more, he is still a rookie coach?

Wang Shuo actively participated in the discussion because the management was giving him face, and he had to accept this face.

The reason for not expressing any key opinions is because since his words don’t count, why should he ask for trouble?

Wang Shuo had only one purpose today from beginning to end.

That is......

Get Jordan.

While going to the bathroom in the middle of the meeting, Wang Shuo looked at Jordan's favorable opinion of him displayed on the system interface. Wang Shuo knew that his goal today had been basically achieved.

However, to Wang Shuo's surprise, after this meeting, in which everyone fully exchanged opinions and opinions, and the process was quite pleasant, Jordan, whose favorability score for him had increased to 45, did not seem so happy.

"Are you free later?" After the meeting, Jordan suddenly asked while looking at Wang Shuo.

"I want to talk to you alone," Jordan added.

Wang Shuo never imagined that the question he asked Jordan about his personal goals would be so effective.

In fact, it is not that Jordan has not been asked this question by his friends before.

However, due to the different environment and status of the question, the impact on Jordan will naturally be different.

Seeing this, Wang Shuo nodded.

"I know there is a very good restaurant near here. It is very quiet." Jordan said to Wang Shuo.

Looking at Jordan's slightly melancholy eyes, at this moment, Wang Shuo suddenly realized that a more important exam than today's meeting had arrived.

If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach.

If you want to capture this prodigy, you must first capture Jordan's heart.
