"Would you like to get a meat shield instead?"
Seeing Old K walking to the free throw line, Phil Jackson's mind was spinning rapidly on the sidelines.
Should we replace the tank with Rodman or Rick Schmitz?
If the former comes down, there will be no rebounds and no one who can guard Rasheed Wallace, so that will definitely not work.
If Schmitz is replaced, there will be no scoring points inside, which is no good.
"Wait a minute, Michael is also scoring like crazy, and Old K has played so many offenses, so he will definitely take a break. There will be no problems on the court for the time being."
Old K's crazy scoring put him in a dilemma. In the end, he chose to wait and let the game continue for a while.
"Bang!"
At this time, Lao Wang made a free throw, which was too long. The ball hit the basket and bounced off the board, and was caught by Rodman.
"2 out of 3 free throws, this is the first ball missed by Old K tonight." Su Qun said a little regretfully.
"Quick Jordan, it's so fast!" Zhang Lili exclaimed in surprise.
In the Bulls' frontcourt, Jordan received a pass from Rodman, but Kidd was still one step behind him and couldn't keep up with his speed.
"Damn it!"
Kidd was a little frustrated. His speed was really not slow anymore, but he couldn't keep up with an old guy.
"brush!"
In order to save energy, Jordan did not dunk this time, but ended the offense with a layup.
"yeah!"
More than two thousand away Bulls fans burst into loud cheers.
"Shh!"
Then more than 17,000 home fans immediately suppressed it with loud boos. Not only the players on the field were fighting, but the fans on both sides were also fighting.
An on-site commentator shook his head and sighed: "Michael Jordan has scored 18 points on 8-for-8 shooting, with a 100% shooting rate. It is really a god-like performance!"
"But we also have old K, and he will definitely perform even more powerfully." Another on-site commentator said excitedly.
In the CCTV live broadcast, Zhang Lili shook his head and said: "The Suns did not make substitutions in time. The response of the coaching staff was not slow or insensitive, but unqualified.
You haven't defended a single fast break, so why don't you replace someone with speed? What are you waiting for? The lineup and tactics are completely unreasonable.
Although the dual-control tactic can break the Bulls' blockade on the outside, if you look at Kobe, the Bulls can't lock down the outside. Kobe's ball control and ball-holding abilities are still good, and he has no physical disadvantage against Harper. The current defense
It should be stronger than lightning."
Su Qun wanted to tell Coach Zhang that Kobe could not catch up with Jordan, but he did not dare to say it.
At 20:16, the Bulls led by 4 points and the Suns attacked.
It was still a steady positional battle. In order to respond to Jordan, Wang Tiejun once again entered the basket strongly and continued to put pressure on the Bulls.
He just wants to infinitely compress the Bulls' defense and exert strong psychological pressure on the Bulls through extremely powerful passes to the basket again and again until they can't bear it anymore.
As for Jordan's offense, he believes that with the decline in physical fitness, that guy will definitely not be able to continue to be so crazy.
As for his own physical fitness, he slowed down the offensive pace, and the two Bulls insiders could not exert a huge physical exertion on him. The Bulls have always used Rick Schmitz to defend him. This player has no confrontation ability at all, and never competes with him.
If there is a confrontation, his physical fitness should be able to persist.
Seeing Old K entering the basket again, Phil Jackson's eyes shrank.
He knew that sooner or later he would have to switch to a human shield, because if he continued to fight like this, Old K's physical energy would not be greatly consumed.
"Whoosh!"
Seeing Old K entering the paint from the free throw line, Kidd, who had just passed the center line, did not pass the ball directly because Jordan was right in front of him. Instead, he suddenly made a cross pass and gave the ball to the responding Lightning, who kept stopping.
Once, passed directly to the basket.
"Crack!"
The passing distance was a bit long. When Wang received the ball with Rick Schmitz on his right elbow, Rodman once again pounced on him from the right low post, completing a double-team on him.
But how can two bugs hold down a giant beast?
boom!
The beast soared into the sky, and the next moment, with a bang, the Bulls' basket was banged again.
"ah!"
More than 17,000 Suns fans roared wildly.
"The unstoppable Sun King, he will lead us to glory, he will lead us to shine on the entire alliance..."
The on-site commentator's extremely excited roar made the fans shout louder and louder, almost lifting the roof of the stadium.
Rodman and Schmitz stood under the basket, looking helplessly at the beast in front of them, and could only turn around and leave.
"Jordan performed like a god today, but the old K is also invincible and performed like a god. There are two active players. The old one doesn't want to step down, and the new one wants to take over. They are both too powerful!" Magician
Johnson shook his head and praised.
Larry Bird looked serious and said: "If Jordan wants to win this game, he has to work harder and keep his offense going longer."
"Larry, do you see anything?" Kareem asked.
Larry Bird raised his finger and pointed at the scene and said: "Look, Jordan's performance like this can't keep up with the momentum of the home team. Once his performance declines and he can't maintain a 100% shooting rate, what will happen here? I can guarantee it.
, when he misses the first ball, the home team’s momentum will rise crazily.”
"So when will Jordan miss his first shot?" Magic Johnson asked seriously.
This question also aroused the curiosity and expectation of countless fans in front of the TV.
At this time, the Bulls served and when they reached the frontcourt, Phil Jackson unexpectedly called a timeout.
"Phil, why did you call a timeout?" Jordan didn't understand and asked after sitting down.
"Michael, I won't stop you from attacking today, but tell me when you plan to stop?" Phil Jackson asked seriously.
Jordan stared at Phil Jackson. He knew that Jackson didn't like him taking all the offense, but he wanted to do it by himself today. He only trusted himself and no one else today.
The two of you stared at me and I stared at you. No one said anything. The atmosphere on the Bulls bench suddenly became serious, and no one dared to speak.
A few seconds later, seeing Jordan not answering but staring at him, Phil Jackson quickly explained: "I'm not trying to stop you from attacking, but I'm trying to solve the defensive problem. If you attack alone, then Rick Schmitz's
It’s not very useful. I need to use a human shield to defend against Old K and consume his physical energy, so I need to know when you plan to stop."
Jordan then nodded and said, "No need to change, I'm a little tired."
Next, Phil Jackson deployed offensive tactics, with Jordan as a check and Pippen and Rick Schmitz in charge of the offense.
"Kevin, do you want to come down and take a break?"
Over at the Suns, Danny Ainge was asking about the Lightning.
It was the 6th minute of the first quarter, only halfway through the quarter, but he could see that the Lightning seemed to be struggling and in poor condition.
Lightning nodded helplessly. There was something wrong with his physical energy reserves, and the energy he had consumed could not be recovered in time.
Danny Ainge glanced at the bench. Wilkins and Chapman perked up and looked at the head coach.
At this time, Kobe, who was standing next to the water dispenser, was so anxious that he couldn't sit still. He was so anxious that he looked over at Old K, almost asking for a fight.
After he missed a shot in the last game, he was put on the bench by Old K and never played again. This was the finals. As the successor of Old K, how could he sit on the bench all the time?
At this moment, he saw Old K leaning out his upper body, looking at him, then looking at Danny Ainge, and winking at him.
"This is?"
His heart skipped a beat, did Old K ask me to... take the initiative to ask for a fight? No matter, just treat it as Old K asking me to take the initiative to ask for a fight.
The next moment, he jumped up from his seat and shouted: "Coach, let me go, I can guard against Jordan's quick moves, I can keep up with his rhythm, and my defense speed is also faster.
"
"Rookie asks for a fight?" Everyone was startled.
"Damn rookie!"
The two veterans, Wilkins and Chapman, cursed secretly at the same time.
This is the finals, something they have never played before, and they still really want to play.
Danny Ainge was also stunned. He let Kobe go up in the last game, but Kobe was thrown down by Old K because of a wasteful shot. He didn't dare to let Kobe go up again this time.
He looked at Old K and asked: "Old K, what do you think?"
"Let him try."
Lao Wang nodded, stared at Kobe and said: "But if you dare to make wasteful shots again, you will have no chance in this finals."
He really didn't want to play Wilkins and Chapman in the main lineup. These two veterans had no defense and no speed. It would be a tragedy to face Jordan, so he just gave Kobe a wink.
"I definitely won't." Kobe quickly raised his hands and assured.
Danny Ainge immediately warned: "Okay, Kobe, your main task after going up is to defend. You are responsible for defending Harper, especially helping to defend Jordan. You must move fast. In addition, you must set up fast breaks, defend fast breaks, and positional battles."
No ball in the middle..."
Both Wilkins and Chapman were a little disappointed, but that's okay. After all, if they go up now, they will face the Bulls' main lineup, especially they are likely to face Jordan. With their weak defense, they will definitely
They were beaten, so it would be best to join them when they are still on the bench, as the defensive pressure will be much less at that time.
The timeout ends, the game begins, and the Bulls attack.
"Oh, the Suns finally replaced Kobe. This is only reasonable!" Zhang Lili laughed.
Because of Lao Wang, he has a good relationship with Kobe and is very willing to see Kobe get more opportunities.
"When Jordan is about to leave, you have to react first. Your speed shouldn't be as fast as his, understand?" Lao Wang warned Kobe when he came on the court.
"Understood, I will keep an eye on him. I'm not slower than him." Kobe nodded and said confidently.
Lao Wang looked helplessly at the ceiling, God, there is a liar here, you should take him back.
At this time, the Bulls served the ball from the frontcourt sideline, and Rick Schmitz served.
Jordan kept running, but couldn't get rid of Kidd for a while, so he had to resort to pick-and-rolls.
Kidd is indeed very fast. Even in the entire history of the league, his 100-meter sprint speed should be ranked among the top ten. His retracement running is also good. In this non-straight-line sprinting retracement movement, some pulling movements are added.
, he followed the former.
But at this moment, Jordan ran to the top of the arc, where Kobe and Harper were. Harper suddenly made a pick-and-roll, blocking Kidd. Kidd took the opportunity and immediately reached for the ball.
At this moment, Kobe made the decision to change defense and pounced on Jordan from the side and behind.
"Whoosh!"
Schmitz threw with both hands and the ball flew toward Jordan.
Jordan immediately took off after receiving the ball and shot a three-pointer.
Kobe jumped up from the left backside and flew to block the shot.
"Crack!"
As soon as Jordan took the ball, he was slapped out of the court by Kobe.
"What?" Jordan's eyes widened.
Of course he knew that the rookie Kobe was behind him, but he didn't expect that the rookie would change defense so quickly and make a mistake!
Jordan himself was a little depressed, as were other Bulls players. They didn't expect that Jordan, whom they regarded as a god, would be blocked by a rookie when he was performing like a god.
They didn't notice that because of this block, their momentum of going forward suddenly stopped.
"Jordan missed the first shot?"
"Jordan was actually blocked by a Suns rookie?"
At this moment, fans across the United States in front of countless TV sets were either disappointed or surprised.
"yeah!"
As Kobe successfully blocked Jordan's shot, the entire audience immediately erupted into excitement. The momentum of the home court instantly soared, like a blazing sun, arrogant and arrogant.
Jordan played like crazy today, making 8 of 8 shots from the field. They had long been looking forward to successfully preventing Jordan's next attack. Now the rookie blocked Jordan, which made them crazy with joy and immediately cheered.
Jordan's attacks one after another have put huge psychological pressure on them, and with this block, their psychological pressure instantly felt like a lid was lifted, giving them the feeling of being trapped under water for too long.
, now I can finally surface and take a breath.
"ah!"
In addition to them, all the Suns players also roared excitedly.
Jordan played too crazy today and put too much pressure on them. Now they finally have a chance to relieve themselves.
Including Kobe himself, he yelled at Jordan even more excitedly, and then shouted at Lao Wang inside: "See, Lao K, I'm guarding him, you can't do without me, only I can help you
.”
"Don't get carried away, you have to keep an eye on him."
The noise from the fans at the scene was so loud that Lao Wang couldn't hear anything clearly, but looking at Kobe's look, he knew that this kid was very proud, so he immediately rushed over and pulled Kobe's ear and yelled at him.
"I got it, let go!"
Feeling like his ear was about to fall off, Kobe quickly knocked off Pharaoh's hand.
"Haha, look, I just said that I should replace Kobe Bryant, and the defensive end will be immediate!" Zhang Lili laughed.
small book booth
"That's right." Su Qun smiled.
Magic Johnson laughed and said: "I didn't expect that Jordan's first missed shot today was blocked by a rookie. If the game between the two teams tonight can only be decided by one goal, then Kobe's contribution is very big."
Larry Bird laughed and said: "There is always that time when we miss, and I didn't expect that I would lose it in Kobe's hands. This may be Kobe's revenge. When they played against each other for the first time, Michael taught Kobe a good lesson.
"
"Haha, it should be." Jabbar laughed.
On the court, Jordan stared at Kobe with murderous eyes.
"In a duel, I can guard you to death, and I can also blow you up." Kobe said something that made Jordan want to hit someone.
"As expected, you are indeed Old K's apprentice. You are as arrogant as him!" Jordan spat out a sentence through his teeth.
"My master is not crazy. He has beaten you twice, just in the finals. He lost one, two, and three. With my help, he will do what he says this time." Kobe said with his chin high.
"Damn rookie, get out of here!"
What Jordan hated the most was when he lost one, two, or three. He scolded Kobe, pushed Kobe, and took two steps forward to catch the ball.
"You are my idol, but in fact I feel you are not worthy now because you always lose to my master..." Kobe quickly followed, entangled around Jordan, and kept talking trash.
"Ha ha……"
Lao Wang heard it funny not far away and couldn't help laughing.
"Whoosh!"
Because Kobe took the initiative to defend Jordan and was very tight, Rodman, who was serving, gave the ball to Schmitz in the high position.
Schmitz caught the ball with both hands and threw it in Jordan's direction.
Rasheed Wallace was fooled. He looked towards Jordan and saw that there was no ball. He turned around hurriedly and saw that Schmitz in front of him had jumped up.
"not good!"
His fake move shook Rasheed Wallace, and Schmitz was secretly happy, but as soon as he jumped up and before the ball was released, he saw a huge figure rushing towards him like a hungry tiger.
"Old K?"
That ferocious aura startled him. If he hit him, wouldn't his muscles and bones be broken?
While his mind was wavering, with the arrow on the string, he could only continue to shoot the ball.
"Crack!"
In the next moment, Lao Wang grabbed the basketball he had just released with one hand. His huge body flew past Schmitz, and the wind he brought made his opponent feel suffocated.
"Oh ho!"
The moment the hat-catching happened, the whole audience burst into cheers of joy.
