Chapter 8: Fearless Against Jordan! The Game's Best Chapter is Born!
An enraged Jordan is not someone to be trifled with!
When Jordan launched another low-post attack, Lin Tian felt like his ribs were about to be crushed by Jordan's headbutt, but Lin Tian gritted his teeth and didn't retreat an inch, trying his best to interfere with Jordan.
Unfortunately, against the god of basketball, such interference was not enough!
"Whoosh!"
Jordan turned around and made another jump shot, scoring 2 more points!
"Damn it! Stop right there!"
Just as Jordan was about to retaliate with a trash talk after scoring, Lin Tian had already disappeared!
He accelerated his sprint again!
This time, Kukoc, having tasted success, didn't hesitate at all and once again delivered a long pass to Lin Tian in the frontcourt. Lin Tian then accelerated again after receiving the ball!
With enough space to sprint, Lin Tian easily bypassed the unsteady Pippen in one step, then rushed to the basket again and easily made a layup!
You should know that there are probably no more than 5 people in this league with S+ level speed!
Lin Tian and these other people are actually very different!
Your S+ rating is because your speed has reached this level.
My S+ rating is because the highest rating the system can give is S+!
Bolt's speed is the pinnacle of human speed in all of human history!
"Whoosh!"
With a crisp sound, Lin Tian scored 6 points in a row!
In a short period of time, he actually managed to trade blows with Jordan!
That's not all. In the previous play, he even blew past Pippen, who has been named one of the league's best defensive players at the small forward position multiple times!
Absolutely stunning!
Jordan's eyes turned completely cold at this moment; he was about to get serious!
In the following rounds, Lin Tian's teammates gradually began to believe in him, and he had more possession of the ball. However, facing the berserk Jordan, Lin Tian felt helpless.
Even though he was already in his early 30s, Jordan's explosiveness, speed, lateral movement, and especially his anticipation and pressure on the defensive end were terrifying!
Even though Wennington kept screening for Lin Tian, Lin Tian couldn't find any opportunities, and Jordan's defense prevented Lin Tian from making full use of his speed advantage.
Aside from giving Kerr two open three-point opportunities, he made no other contributions. On the defensive end, Lin Tian lost count of how many times Jordan had pulled up for him. He was truly helpless against Jordan!
As the game dragged on, Jackson started checking his watch. Tonight's game was almost over. He was certain that Jordan was still at his peak, and he was also certain that Lin Tian was indeed a capable guy, not just someone who was all talk. However, he still needed to think carefully about how to use Lin Tian!
At this moment, the most exciting scene on the field tonight unfolded—
Jordan once again backed down Lin Tian in the low post, then faked a shot and turned around to jump for a shot. Lin Tian finally saw the opportunity and slapped him down!
"Snapped!"
With a crisp snap, Jordan was directly stripped of the ball by Lin Tian!
Jordan lost the basketball in mid-air, landing in an incredibly bizarre pose before finally landing. At that moment, Lin Tian sprinted at full speed, launching a counterattack towards the frontcourt!
"Scott, Dennis, stop him!" Jordan shouted.
He unleashed all his strength, holding nothing back, and chased after Lin Tian with all his might!
Lin Tian's terrifying speed was unleashed at this moment. Even though his dribbling skills were not yet top-notch and he could not fully unleash his S+ speed when dribbling forward, his speed at this moment could definitely be described as terrifying!
Pippen and Rodman were now really determined. Their leader had spoken, and if they let Lin Tian finish the fast break, they would lose all face!
Facing the encirclement of two top defensive experts, Lin Tian showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he lowered his head and ran wildly!
He didn't dare to stop for a moment and drove straight to the basket, but he couldn't shake off the two defenders in front of him. At this moment, Jordan was also chasing after him and was poised to attack. As long as he dared to jump, Jordan would definitely give him a big, delicious block!
The Bulls' Big Three teamed up in a scrim to target a second-round pick!
These words sound like a joke when spoken aloud, but at this moment, they have become a reality!
Finally, Lin Tian stepped into the three-second zone, and he jumped up without fear. The three giants surrounded Lin Tian from three directions, completely blocking him!
"Still too green. He got carried away and can only sprint without slowing down the pace, which is a bit lacking." Phil Jackson shook his head slightly. Lin Tian's mindless charge this time disappointed him somewhat.
But the disappointment only lasted for a moment!
"Whoosh!"
Just when everyone was waiting to see the bloody block, the basketball suddenly disappeared!
"boom!"
Less than a second later, Bucheler, who had excellent physical abilities, took the basketball and rose against the wind, slamming it down with both hands!
Most people at the scene didn't see what happened in the blink of an eye; they just instinctively gasped in surprise! Even Buchel himself didn't know what had just happened or how the basketball had gotten into his hands.
Phil Jackson, who had just been shaking his head, suddenly widened his eyes, his face filled with disbelief!
He clearly saw that Lin Tian had just jumped up, pulled the basketball from in front of him to his waist, and then made a no-look pass, sending the basketball through Jordan's armpit and to Buchler, who had cut in from the wing.
How did he see it?
Buchler was completely out of Lin Tian's sight!
This pass reminded Jackson of a retired rival. In the entire league, there was only one person who could make such an imaginative and incredibly bold pass!
Magic Johnson!
A promising talent!
A truly promising talent!
Even with just this one goal, Jackson was determined to nurture Lin Tian properly!
With that kind of speed, vision, imagination, and passing skills, he's definitely a promising talent!
As for what happened in the last two possessions of the game, Jackson didn't care anymore. He didn't care about Jordan's failed dunk over Bill Wennington, or Jordan's forceful layup against Lin Tian from beyond the three-point line. Even though Lin Tian was completely outplayed by Jordan tonight, the most exciting moment belonged to Lin Tian!
Jackson has thoroughly memorized this large-sized point guard from Asia!
As for Jordan and Lin Tian, after the game, Jordan, panting heavily, looked at Lin Tian and said, "Kid, how was it? I completely crushed you!"
"Although you scored more points, you didn't manage a single one-on-one steal against me, nor did you block my shot, while I stole the ball from you once!" Lin Tian counted on his fingers and then laughed, "So at most, we're just trading baskets!"
"Mutual destruction?" Jordan was so angry at Lin Tian's shamelessness that he laughed, nodding and saying, "I hope you remember this: mutual destruction! You'll regret it!"
