048: Michael finally learned how to speak properly_2

But this time, Michael Jordan did not let his guard down because Roger was only 18 years old.

Roger lowered his center of gravity, realizing Jordan was letting him drive left because Roger was not left-handed. He decided to take the bait and broke to the left.

Jordan's strong upper body made it very uncomfortable for Roger to drive; if this persisted, it was only a matter of time before he would be forced to stop. Hence, Roger came to an abrupt halt and spun for a jump shot.

Jordan's reaction was quick, but having been away from the basketball court for too long, he was still a beat too slow.

This slight delay allowed Roger's basketball to fly just past Jordan's fingertips. Although he couldn't complete the block, Jordan thought such disruption was already enough.

However, the next second, Jordan heard the sound of the ball "thunking" against the backboard, followed by the swish of the net.

Despite Jordan's tight defense, Roger's turnaround off-the-glass shot still went in!
