In the professional arena, players are not afraid of failure but most afraid of injuries. In a business league like the NBA, there are countless talented players, but those geniuses are not necessarily taken care of by God, and injuries are an important reason for these geniuses to fall. Today we talk about Pence Hardaway.
Hardaway was a 93-year-old flower show, just when Jordan first announced his retirement, the NBA league fell into the embarrassment of no card, and the league urgently needed an heir to take up Jordan's mantle. Hardaway, who is 201cm tall, is a double-powered defender on the pitch. His style of play was full of spirituality, gorgeous style of play, and soon he gained a large wave of fans. At that time, the slogan of Jordan's successor came out.
Hardaway didn't disappoint the league either, averaging 20.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 7.2 assists in the second year of his career, shooting 51.2 percent from the field and being named to the First Team of the Year. He and O'Neal became gemini stars for the Magic, and in the first year of Jordan's comeback they led the Magic to eliminate Jordan's Bulls in the Eastern Conference semifinals, when they reached the Finals.
In the first five seasons of his career, Hardaway was selected as an All-Star four times, when his future was limitless. However, the arrival of injuries has caused the genius to fall. After O'Neill switched to the Lakers, Hardaway suffered a knee injury, and after the operation, the forced comeback aggravated his injury, and hardaway suffered a devastating knee injury next season. After that, Hardaway's competitive state was not as good as a year, and although he continued to play in the league for several seasons, he was no longer Jordan's successor at that time.
