However, such a powerful Jordan is not the top pick in the draft, but only the third overall pick. So the scouting ability was not good, and Jordan was not found? The reality is that Jordan averaged only 20 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game in his junior year of NCAA, that is, the year before he entered the NBA. This is far from other gods in NCAA history, so it seems natural that the third place was chosen. But why did Jordan average 28+6+6 per game in the NBA rookie season? Isn't the competition intensity of NBA inferior to NCAA?
Compared with the NBA, NCAA can only be regarded as the cradle of cultivating new talents, and its level is naturally not as good as that of the NBA. But when Jordan went to college, head coach dean smith asked Jordan to play more team basketball, so Jordan's personal attack was suppressed. It seems that the data is not extravagant. Is dean smith still there? Fool? Jordan, what is the difficulty of the NBA? Hell mode? So Jordan didn't dare to relax at all during his college years, and he has been training hard to improve himself. It turned out in the NBA that this was not the case at all. Even if his strength is among the talented NBA stars, he stands out from the crowd.
Therefore, Jordan's most grateful head coach is not Phil Jackson, who has won six championships with him, but dean smith. In fact, Jordan showed his superstar potential before he entered the NBA. At that time, he took part in the Olympic Games. 1984, American men's basketball coach Bob? Knight saw Jordan's superiority and suggested that 1984 pioneers who held the second prize should give priority to Jordan. But the Blazers said they would choose a center, so they missed a genius. Of course, this is not the first time that pioneers have done this. They have already missed Dr. J, Bird, Jordan and Durant, all because they have to choose the center. They finally chose parallel imports, which can be called NAB draft? Minesweeper? .
