125: 074: Roger did it too!
Roger and O’Neal squatting next to a Ferrari with only three wheels while waiting for a tow truck appeared on the front pages of major dia outlets.
The photo was taken by an enthusiastic Orlando citizen, who saw two young n sitting by the roadside next to a stranded blue Ferrari sports car on his way ho from work yesterday.
Upon realizing that the two were star players of the Magic Team, he imdiately asked if they needed help and inquired in detail why the Ferrari had only three wheels.
It turns out, after the tire deflated, Roger had intended to honestly wait for rescue.
But Shaq had to slap his chest and say, “It’s just a tire change, I can easily handle it.”
As a result, Shaq removed the wheel but did not hold it firmly, causing it to roll down the slope and into the lake next to the road.
If it had been just the tire, it might have floated.
But the tire, along with the rim, naturally sank to the bottom of the lake.
Shaq looked at the tools in his hand and scratched his head, “Roger, everyone who frequently loses a tire knows, Orlando is a city of a thousand lakes, full of lakes big and small, so it’s very normal for a tire to roll into a lake.
By the way, Ferraris are so expensive, there should be so kind of three-wheel driving mode, right?
Quick, teach how to adjust it?”
That’s how the event unfolded, and the passing citizen took this comical photo with Roger and Shaq’s consent.
When interviewed by reporters the next day, O’Neal reiterated several tis, “It wasn’t who broke the car, you guys don’t believe ?
Unless Charles Barkley and I are in the sa car at the sa ti, how could I possibly break it!
You can’t bla for losing grip of the tire, ultimately, it’s all because Roger accidentally ran over a nail while driving.
Roger’s driving skills are absolutely the worst I’ve ever seen; no wonder he can’t find a girlfriend, he can’t even drive a small car properly!”
Roger was not to be outdone, “Driving skills?
Believe , even if Michael Schumacher were here, he wouldn’t be able to drive a Ferrari with only three wheels!”
Looking at the newspapers, Michael Jordan could hardly believe that these two idiots were his biggest rivals this season.
What are they?
They’re just two noisy, juvenile children.
At that mont, Jordan had no idea of the consensus these two seemingly noisy kids had reached behind the scenes of this commotion.
In fact, it wasn’t just Shaq; everyone on the Magic Team supported Roger on the matter of “beating Jordan.”
And that day was coming ever closer.
On November 18, the Magic won 113 to 103 at ho against the Brooklyn Nets.
Except for the resignation of Coach Chuck Daly, the Nets hadn’t seen many changes in personnel that past sumr.
Therefore, considering that Roger had led the Bulls without Jordan to sweep the Nets last season, today was naturally an easy win.
Roger scored a season-high 35 points, and it was already the sixth victory for the Magic since the beginning of the season 18 days ago.
During this ti, the Magic only lost one ga, to the Seattle SuperSonics.
The Magic’s record now stands at 6 wins and 1 loss, ranking first in the East.
Although tonight’s opponent was the Nets, the post-ga press conference was flooded with questions about Jordan.
“Roger, Michael Jordan’s average points per ga lead the league this season, do you think he still is the best scorer in the league?”
“He definitely is the best scorer in the league, yet he will be a scorer who never wins a championship.”
“The Bulls, after their loss in the opener, bounced back imdiately and are now continuing their winning streak, 5 wins and 2 losses.
Do you think, under Jordan’s leadership, the Bulls have a chance to surpass last season’s performance?”
“I’m now a mber of the Orlando Magic Team, don’t ask about the Chicago Bulls.”
“Roger, have you and Michael smoothed things out at all?
Have you communicated this season?”
“Absolutely not!”
The whole world knows Roger vs.
Jordan, Bulls vs.
Magic, is the most anticipated upcoming regular-season ga.
So, the major dia outlets started hyping this ga a full month in advance.
The sa was true on the other side; at that mont, in the United Center, the Bulls had just taken down the Detroit Pistons.
The league’s new darling Grant Hill had scored 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists, and perhaps to prove he was more versatile than Hill, Jordan imdiately scored 29 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists.
However, at the post-ga press conference, not many people ntioned Grant Hill.
The reporters all asked Jordan, “In half a month, you’ll be facing the vigorously rising Magic, are you confident?”
Jordan smiled, “You know, every ti I travel to Orlando for an away ga, I always find it uninteresting because the gas are too easy.
Because of this, I have to bring my two sons along to Disney World just to make my trip there less boring.
Those two energetic little guys always exhaust in the park.
Dealing with them is often much harder than dealing with the Magic.”
At this point, Jordan’s smile faded, “This ti, out of respect for Roger, I’ll only bring one kid.”
The public reacted joyfully to the ongoing rivalry between Roger and Jordan; the two of them still appeared at loggerheads.
Such confrontations are interesting, the world of competitive sports doesn’t need so many brothers, what people really want to see is the relentless rivalry like that of Jordan and Isaiah Thomas, or the tough battles between Oakley and Barkley.
