After advancing through the Western Conference finals, Yang Jian heard the system prompt.
"The host changed the history of NBA stars. All-star player Karl Malone (Stockton, Hornacek) lost the opportunity to reach the 1997 Finals and challenge the Bulls to increase his popularity. His historical status declined. The host gained attribute points.
3. Randomly select a talent skill of Hornacek - "National Father-in-law!"
As soon as Yang Jian saw the name, he knew it must be a weird talent. The good news was that all three Jazz veterans provided him with more than one attribute point and skill.
He is a little embarrassed. The team he has abused the most in the league is the Jazz, and he has also gained a lot of benefits from his opponents. As long as the SuperSonics defeat the Jazz and advance to the finals next year, they can still change these three people.
history.
After returning to the locker room, Yang Jian called up the system panel to view the introduction of new talents and skills.
National father-in-law: "Jeff Hornacek is not a handsome man, and his wife is not beautiful, but their children have perfectly inherited the advantages of their parents. They are all handsome men and beautiful women. If the host obtains this talent, the children can inherit the excellent genes of their parents."
, has a charming appearance.”
Regarding this talent, Yang Jian just wanted to say "good guy". He and his girlfriends are all very good-looking. If they have children, they will probably all be elves, right?
Is the system encouraging him to have more children? There is no family planning in the United States, so you can have as many children as you like. Even in China, it was later encouraged to have three children, but at that time most people were under great pressure to only have one child.
Yang Jian won't be able to use this talent for the time being. He wants to enjoy his youth. Why do he want a child so early? He doesn't plan to play father-son basketball in the future. He also has to pave the way for his son to be drafted. He is cheating, but his son is not cheating.
At most, his physical fitness is very good.
His girlfriends definitely don’t want children in the short term. How can someone who can improve their career have time to raise children?
Yang Jian added 3 attribute points to his basketball skills, for a total of 77 points. As long as he defeats the Bulls in the finals and changes the important history of the Bulls' three-star championship, and can gain three more attribute points, his basketball skills will be perfect.
It's going to be 80.
He chatted with his teammates for a while in the locker room and went to the press conference.
He first expressed his thoughts: "I think it's normal to sweep the Jazz and advance because their core is too old. Except for Malone, they are all in the decline period. Gary, Sean, I, and I are all in our prime. There is no reason why we can't compare.
The Three Jazz Masters."
He pointed out that the Jazz are headed by three veterans, but they will not respect the old and favor the young at all on the court. This is more heart-wrenching than any trash talk, and directly tells the Jazz players one thing, you will not be super next season.
Sonic rival.
This is bad news for veterans who long for a championship. If they want a ring, they have to consider leaving the Jazz.
Yang Jian wanted to see if he could trigger a butterfly effect. If Malone and Stockton broke up early, it would definitely change important history, and he could gain attribute points.
The reporter asked: "In the first three rounds of the playoffs, the Sonics encountered no resistance at all. How do you feel about this?"
Yang Jian shook his head and said seriously: "No, I don't agree with your statement. We encountered obvious resistance in the playoffs. After all, in theory, the air has some resistance."
The reporters all laughed. These words can be discussed by fans for a long time. I wonder what the Jazz players will think after hearing this.
The reporter asked: "Which team in the Eastern Conference do you think will advance to the finals?"
"Of course it's the Bulls. No team has ever been able to come back from being behind 0-3. We have an absolute advantage in the finals for a simple reason. The Bulls' core players are too old. I'm ready to face it.
To prepare for the final challenge, the Bulls are the best opponent." Yang Jian's self-confidence is undoubtedly evident.
Others are challenging Jordan with their mouths and mouths, but only Yang Jian thinks that she is on the throne to meet Jordan's challenge.
What he said certainly caught everyone's attention. And he was so crazy and well-founded that the Sonics won the championship last season. The Bulls' three core players are one year older than last year, and the depth of the lineup has not improved.
Next, Yang Jian praised his teammates again.
In this series, he averaged 31.8 points, 4 rebounds, 12.5 assists and 2 steals per game, shooting 56% from the field and 45% from the three-point range. Even so, he still will not forget to praise his teammates.
If his teammates don't perform well, how can he get so many assists?
One of the words he often talks about is "The game is for five people!"
Because of this sentence, teammates like Yang Jian very much, and it is indeed easier to score when playing with him. Kemp plays more easily than in the past, averaging 2010 per game, and his data is better than before Yang Jian joined the SuperSonics. Payton
I have the same feeling, I have less possession of the ball and it’s easier to play.
Others praised Yang Jian in interviews and said they enjoyed the game. Even though it was the playoffs, their mentality was still relaxed.
The next day, the fourth game of the Bulls vs. Heat series began. The Heat, who were trailing 0 to 3, finally came back at their home court with a score of 87 to 80.
While many fans lamented that the Sonics relied on offense to win and won beautifully, they also began to ridicule the ugly games of these "iron-blooded" teams in the Eastern Conference.
There were four games in the Eastern Conference Finals, and neither team scored more than 100 points in any one game. The one with the most points was g3, and the Bulls won 98-74. In g2, the Bulls won 75-68, and the players from both teams were so hard at work that they nearly smashed the baskets.
Crooked.
The entire G2 Heat team's field goal percentage was 33.8%, with only one person shooting more than 40%. Some fans said that the Heat are lucky to be in the Eastern Conference. If they performed like this against the SuperSonics, they would lose more than 60 points in a single game.
The funny thing is that the Bulls players are also very tough. The team shot 35.9% from the field and only beat the Heat by 7 points.
In this game, Jordan made 4 of 15 shots, 15 of 16 free throws, and scored 23 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, and 4 steals. His shooting percentage was only 26.7%, and his scoring relied almost entirely on free throws.
In the game where the Bulls lost in G4, Jordan's performance was even more shocking. He made 9 of 35 shots, 0 of 8 three-pointers, 11 of 13 free throws, and scored 29 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal.
Jordan's shooting percentage in this game was only 25.7%. He still relied on free throws to maintain his scoring efficiency, otherwise his true shooting percentage would not reach 40%.
Pippen was not far behind, making 5 of 17 shots, 2 of 9 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, 14 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 turnovers, and a shooting percentage of 29.4%.
Countless viewers witnessed the ugly behavior of Bulls stars through live television. The most accurate person among the Big Three turned out to be Rodman.
The ESPN commentator couldn't help but sigh: "Can such a Bull really pose a threat to the SuperSonics? If they play like this in the finals, they are likely to be easily swept and watch the SuperSonics win the cup in Chicago."
Fans are also optimistic about the SuperSonics winning the championship. The Bulls' offensive power is too poor. Unless they can defend the SuperSonics to less than 90 points, it will be almost impossible to win.
The theory of "defense wins championships" is about to be overthrown by the SuperSonics. The prerequisite for defense to win championships is that the two teams have similar offensive power. The SuperSonics averaged 118.2 points per game in the regular season and the Bulls 103.1 points. The offensive power of the two teams is obviously not at the same level.
.
In Game 5, the Bulls finally scored over 100 points at home, defeating the Heat 100-87 to advance to the finals.
Jordan's performance was still terrible. He made 11 of 31 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 28 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks. His shooting percentage was only 35.5%, and he became a super blacksmith.
.
The Bulls' victory in this game is directly related to the efficient offense of the role players.
Center Luke Longley made 6 of 8 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and scored 14 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and 6 blocks. Longley had the upper hand against Alonzo Mourning, which was definitely a superb performance.
Mourning is short and his shortcomings of unstable shooting outside the penalty area have emerged. He played 38 minutes, making 1 of 4 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 10 of 12 free throws, and scored 13 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, and 3 blocks.
Bulls point guard Ron Harper played 27 minutes, making 6 of 9 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 14 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal. Not only did Harper perform well offensively, he also defended the Heat.
Point guard Tim Hardaway.
In the final game, Hardaway made 7 of 19 shots, 4 of 12 three-pointers, and 9 of 9 free throws. He scored 27 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.
Faced with this kind of cheating duo, the Bulls actually had a hard time winning...
