Jordan: I thought he was there to help me!

Chapter 85 A guy who's really good at making people angry!

"Kid! Do you want to die?!" Ma Long roared, trying to rush through the crowd and challenge Lin Tian.

However, Admiral David Robinson stopped him: "Karl, I don't care what grudges you two have, this is my territory! I won't allow anyone to fight on my turf!"

"David, it's been a year, and you've become even more of a leader." At that moment, a sarcastic voice suddenly came from the doorway. Needless to say, there was only one person in the alliance who would speak to Robinson like that.

David Robinson's former teammate, Dennis Rodman!

Last season, the Spurs achieved a league-best record of 62 wins! They also fought their way through the playoffs to the Western Conference Finals, where they faced the defending champion Rockets led by Hakeem Olajuwon!

This matchup is a head-to-head battle between the four great centers!

Whoever wins this round between Hakeem Olajuwon and Robinson will gain the upper hand in the ranking of the four great centers!

Everyone is incredibly excited about this series. Everyone wants to see who is the stronger monster under the basket: "The Dream" or "The Admiral"!

The Spurs have a twin towers lineup of Rodman and David Robinson. Rodman was even selected to the All-Defensive First Team last season and was also the league's rebounding champion! From any perspective, Rodman and Robinson should be able to suppress Olajuwon.

But in the actual competition, it was a completely different story!

First, David Robinson was utterly humiliated by Hakeem Olajuwon in a one-on-one match!

两个人系列赛的场均数据分别是奥拉朱旺的35分12篮板5助攻4盖帽和罗宾逊的23分11篮板2助攻2盖帽，更别提两个人的命中率，差了足足10个百分点！

Hakeem Olajuwon completely transformed the "Admiral" into a "Naval Private".

Seeing that Robinson was being overwhelmed by Olajuwon and could only run away with his head in his hands, Spurs head coach Bob Hill originally hoped that Rodman would help double-team and assist in the defense to curb Olajuwon's firepower.

But Rodman surprised everyone by refusing outright!

His reasoning was even more shocking to everyone!

"I'm not one of the four great centers, why should I get involved in their matchups? David gets the most money and the most praise, so he should be able to take down Olajuwon one-on-one to prove his worth! Not begging me to double-team him like a woman!"

No one knows what Rodman's mentality was in refusing to double-team Olajuwon, but what everyone does know is that Robinson was humiliated in this series and was immediately ranked at the bottom of the four great centers.

Well, it's not exactly at the bottom.

After all, in the 94 Finals, Ewing was exposed even worse than Robinson!

Of the four great centers of the 90s, only a young Shaquille O'Neal could go toe-to-toe with Hakeem Olajuwon in a series.

This is the biggest reason why Hakeem Olajuwon's two consecutive championships, even though he didn't face Michael Jordan, are considered by everyone to be of extremely high value!

On his way to the championship, this guy dominated the other three of the four great centers!

Not only did he outperform everyone else, but he also achieved all the victories!

Furthermore, if we include power forwards, Hakeem Olajuwon also defeated Charles Barkley and Karl Malone twice during his two championship runs!

During his two championship runs, Hakeem Olajuwon faced a total of five MVP-caliber super centers, including two of them twice. In these seven series, Olajuwon dominated his opponents in every single one, and his team won!

With this level of skill that indiscriminately wipes out all opponents, who dares to say that his skill level is low?

Of course, Hakeem Olajuwon wasn't there tonight; everyone present was one of Olajuwon's defeated opponents.

But the conflict between Rodman and Robinson won't be easily resolved just because Olajuwon isn't around.

After all, after Rodman refused to double-team Olajuwon, he was treated like trash by the Spurs and practically given away to the Bulls!

The Spurs don't dare keep such a troublemaker on the team.

At this moment, Robinson saw Rodman and he was so angry that he almost ground his teeth to powder. In this league, Rodman was the person he hated the most. If Rodman hadn't refused to double-team Olajuwon, he might have won his first championship last year!

So the situation on the field quickly turned into a group of people blocking Robinson from rushing up and fighting Rodman.

"Don't be impulsive, David! We're here to have fun! The most important thing is that we have a good time playing cards!" Ewing, being the biggest, grabbed Robinson, trying to calm him down.

"Patrick, if I were you, I'd be embarrassed to even be here. Who was it that Olajuwon beat to less than 20 points per game? And you dare call yourself one of the top four centers? If I were you, I'd give that title to... um, let me think... to Mutombo! At least he's really big!"

"Fuck you! Who are you calling small?" Ewing's eyes widened immediately upon hearing the words "big" and "small," and his gaze towards Rodman was practically spitting fire!

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing next to him, quickly took notes!

Ewing's is small, we can use this to attack him next time!

After all, if Ewing weren't so young, he definitely wouldn't be so angry!

O'Neal and Hardaway stood in the corner, grinning their white teeth. Clearly, these two young guys weren't planning to get involved in the old men's war.

But Lin Tian wasn't about to let those two off the hook. He deliberately spoke in a voice O'Neal could hear to Pippen, who had come to the scene with Rodman: "I heard O'Neal's isn't that big either! Have you heard about that?"

"What did you say!" O'Neal's eyes widened in anger, looking just like Ewing's twins. It was only because Hardaway was holding him back that he didn't rush up to cause trouble for Lin Tian!

Unfortunately, I only got 10 experience points!

Lin Tian looked at his harvest and shook his head in dissatisfaction. Then he looked at Rodman with jealousy in his eyes!

This guy walked in and only said three sentences before he caused complete chaos at the scene!

This guy is practically Ares, the god of war in the world of attracting hatred!

Unfortunately, the emotional turmoil Rodman caused among the players couldn't benefit Lin Tian, ​​and if Lin Tian had said those things, they wouldn't have had any impact at all.

What a pity, what a waste! It's such a terrible thing!

But regardless of what the people present thought, the game was already on the verge of ending.

If a card game like this, where several people already dislike each other to the point of wanting to punch each other before it even starts, could easily turn into a brawl if it continues!
