(Vote for monthly ticket!)_2 In the ’95 playoffs, John went 4 for 14 in the deciding Ga 5, with 1 out of 6 from the three-point line.
In the ’96 Western Conference Finals, people blad Karl for missing critical free throws in Ga 7, but they overlooked how John was severely whipped by Gary Payton.
That round, John averaged 9.9 points with a shooting percentage of 39%.
This is John, the supposed king of clutch you all talk about, yet the reality is that he almost makes errors year after year.
As for Karl, he’s lucky because Charles is past his pri, because Reign Man went to the East, because David encountered injuries.
In the past, Karl was like soone who only appeared in the crew list after the movie was over; hardly worth ntioning.
Then suddenly, because of all sorts of good luck, he ca to the forefront, beca a top power forward, and even beca the second-ranked person on the MVP list, which is ridiculous.
And these two dream of toppling the great Roger?
With what?
Continue to poison the food, hahaha.
Listen, the Utah Jazz might steal a ga or two, but they won’t win the championship.
Because the team’s two leaders simply aren’t championship material.”
When saying this, the Baby-Faced Assassin didn’t look at any script.
He recited John’s blunder monts like he was reciting the commandnts.
That’s how much he despised Stockton, how much he despised Karl Malone.
One of them snatched his Dream Team spot, while the other left that infamous “elbow of doom” on him.
He utterly hated this Utah duo.
But was that why he hyped up Roger?
Indeed, there was personal grudge involved, but Isaiah Thomas genuinely believed Roger was stronger.
The Baby-Faced Assassin felt that Roger was not just the savior of Atlanta, but also his own.
He embarrassed Michael Jordan, and now he was about to embarrass the Utah tandem.
And these were the people the Baby-Faced Assassin hated the most.
Finally, soone could exact revenge for him!
Karl Malone clenched his fists tightly, but considering the Baby-Faced Assassin’s grudge against the Jazz, he didn’t think the guy’s assessnt was objective.
Any sane person knows, Jazz has the winning ticket.
But soon, another guest comntator on the show, Hubie Brown, also said sothing Karl Malone didn’t want to hear.
“First of all, I want to clarify that, without a doubt, both teams are great.
But what Roger has done over these five seasons makes you believe he will be the final winner.
Lenny will definitely make adjustnts to the rebounding issue, which is the only problem for the Hawks.
Once that is addressed, Jazz’s advantage will beco minuscule.”
Hubie Brown had coached the Hawks back in the 70s, that’s the only connection he has with the Hawks.
But no one believes he’d be biased towards Roger due to this, as in his years as a comntator, Hubie Brown has been known for his neutrality.
So his viewpoint is considerable.
Karl Malone was headachy with annoyance, unable to understand why so many people favored Roger.
Without Shaq’s help, what does that bastard have to brag about?
This season, the regular season records were the sa, and the Jazz even swept the Hawks, yet MVP went to Roger.
Now, even though Jazz is leading, everyone still favors Roger.
Why!?
Karl Malone turned off the television, forcing himself to sleep as soon as possible, conserving his energy.
He intended to crush the Hawks’ wings with a 2-0 overall score and shut everyone’s mouths!
The Finals Ga 2 continued at the Delta Center, and today, Karl Malone finally heard so support for himself.
Before the ga, in the locker room television, they were showing an NBC interview with O’Neal.
“This isn’t a fairy tale; this is competitive sports.
The Utah Jazz is strong, a great team.
So why won’t Atlanta lose?
In fact, they will lose again tonight!”
However, O’Neal’s support did not improve Karl Malone’s mood, as Malone thought the idiot’s words did not count.
That fool of course hoped for Roger to lose, so he could keep boasting, “Look, I’m on the sa level as Roger because we both can’t beat Jazz.”
No, such an idiot’s words are aningless.
O’Neal’s comnts did not cheer up Karl Malone; on the contrary, the preseason interview comnts of Roger made him even angrier: “The biggest problem with the ga today is that I didn’t eat well at noon, because I have to check for poison in everything I eat.”
This jest was like rubbing salt in the wound of the Jazz Team.
After making this comnt, Roger continued his shooting warm-up.
Very few people noticed that Roger’s three-point shooting was very good today, Lenny Wilkens had already seen Roger making dozens of three-pointers from various positions.
Besides Roger, another focal point for the Hawks today was Ben Wallace.
When the analyst desk received the starting lineup, they were all shocked.
After losing Ga 1, many had thought the Hawks might adjust their lineup.
But no one thought that it would be Ben Wallace who was promoted to the starting lineup.
So, Big Ben faced the cara for the first ti before the ga.
“Ben, the first start of your season is in the Finals, what’s your biggest hope?”
The question was easy to answer.
Get good stats.
Win the ga.
Don’t let the coach down.
Any of these answers would be standard and safe.
But Big Ben’s answer was as surprising as his starting position itself.
“My biggest hope?
Hmm…
I haven’t thought that much, I just want to protect Roger.”
