subject: A Combat Between The Mature Jordan And The Teenager Jordan [print this page] There was always a busy figure fighting against himself in gym in the summer of the year 1997. He had been staying in the gym and kept practising for the whole day and night. There was no coach nor the competitors in his training. All he was about to fight was himself. The series of movements with great complication were under continuous practice. No one was there cheering for his brilliant deeds, but he was pleased with it. Of course, it was simply the beginning of his NBA journey. His skills had not come to the wonderful height yet. A fortunate thing was that he had got the sixth rank in the sports competition season in 1997 to 1998.
Many folks might could not have an appreciation of the deeds Kobe had done for the whole summer of the 2007. And they all of a sudden had a notice of his excellence in the combat between the Bulls and the Lakers. In that year's rivalry, the exhausted Bulls was so fortunate that they did not have to fight against the big Shark who was once in the Lakers. Jordan still had the compelling air as before. A series of brilliant movements had been shown in the court. When the game finished, he was glowing with smile. Yet, possibly only himself could make out that it was not the high points he had got nor the championship the Bulls had achieved that made him happy. What pleased him was that there was a boy similar to him of the young age. And that boy who wore the sport shirt of number 8 named Kobe.
Yeah, a substitute of just two years' labour in the NBA was having a fight against the god of basketball. On the attack side, he was able to catch the ball on left wing and made a shot quickly. He got the ability to score after the effectively shunning away from Jordan's powerful defence. And Jordan's low pace as well could make him bounce as a child. And on the defence side, he seemed to be another Jordan of the young age performing the similar movements and got the points.
In that evening, the 34 years old Jordan seemed to encounter another self. Whenever he made a dazzling movement on one side, there was another outstanding performance on the other side played by another self. Though the Lakers could not win th game, the boy had presented his superiority with the score of 33 points. It was an outstanding and exciting imitation show. It was a show between the mature Jordan and the young one. There was a voice having its spreading since that evening, that was, the successor of Jordan. Kobe was the person who might satisfy the folks' desire in the succession of Jordan.
Another mutual point is that they both have shaped the kingdom of autograph shoe. Kobe has his series of Kobe shoe just as Jordan has his own. And whether it is the Kobe shoe or the Jordan shoe, they all are extremely appreciated by their fans.
