Chapter 658 Victory is in sight
Tang Qian passed the ball to McGrady, and McGrady quickly slammed it to Ray Allen, who was open in the corner, swiped, and hit a three-pointer!
41-54, the Tang Qian team was still 13 points behind their opponents.

Bulls offense, Pippen hits McGrady in singles, don't underestimate Pippen at the peak of the Bulls dynasty, he was also a player who averaged 21-22 points per game, and even played a super comprehensive game close to 22+9+5+3+1 at the peak of his career data.And this year was the last year of the Bulls' first three-peat.And Qiao Shen retired a year later, and he did this again, so it was definitely not a fluke.

No kidding, Pippen is the one who has won the steals king. It is very difficult for a small forward to win this honor and should not be underestimated.

And the gold content of the steal king who is close to 3+ times is not comparable to that of the 2+ steal king in later generations.

To get more steals per game in fewer rounds, is there any need to ask about the gold content?
This is one of the biggest criticisms of McGrady. Once he invests the energy of a super scorer on the offensive end, the defensive end will inevitably be weakened, which is much lower than his own level.Frankly speaking, McGrady's personal defense should still be passable. He has created close to 2+ blocks in his career. You must know that among outside players, this is already a "god-level stat".The average of 2+ blocks per game is the domain of inside players. Even if he is as strong as LeBron James, the highest single season is barely more than 1+, 1.1 times.This shows that McGrady's defensive ability, at least the ability to block shots is still good, because in his position, blocks cannot be obtained by protecting the basket.But with the continuous breakthrough of scoring ability, McGrady's defensive ability is also declining. If a player's strongest defense in his career appeared in the rookie years, it can only be said that he originally had a certain ability, but he did not realize it.

Of course, there are problems with injuries, spine, and other factors, but if it is not fulfilled, it is not fulfilled. The basketball court is a place to talk about reality, and there are not so many ifs.There was even a famous saying back then, "Save the physical fitness of the defensive end to the offensive end", which is McGrady's masterpiece.For this reason, Rockets fans beat their chests and feet.

It can only be said that McGrady's physical fitness is far less than that of Kobe Iverson.

Of course, McGrady released the energy of a super scorer in this game, otherwise he would not be able to easily break through Pompi's super iron chain defense a few times, and since he released the energy of a super scorer... then his defensive end is bound to decline. lower than it should be.At the peak of Pippen's career, he also scored 22 points, and his shooting percentage exceeded 50%, which is enough to deal with the average defensive McGrady.

This goes back to the previous topic of the integration of offense and defense. McGrady’s super scoring ability is restricted by Pippen, and he can’t restrain Pippen on the defensive end. .If McGrady's defense was a little better, this should have been a must-win matchup.Therefore, the ability to integrate offense and defense can improve a player's immediate combat power. The so-called lack of scoring to make up for defense is the truth. Pippen's scoring ability is much inferior to that of Peak Mai, but he uses his own offense and defense. Instead, he faintly suppressed it. Without the opponent, this situation can be called terrible.

41-56, the Bulls once again expanded the score.

Seeing that McGrady was a little depressed, Tang Qian ran past him and said, "It's okay, Tracy, you just need to return a three-pointer on the offensive end. A three-pointer is one point more than a two-pointer, isn't it?" The team's No. 29 "encourages" the offensive end to force a three-pointer when he gets the ball, but Pippen still defends successfully, using his superhuman wingspan to interfere with the Magic No. 1.

hateful!Why is this guy's arms so long? ? ?Is he an ape? ? ?
McGrady himself is a "long-handed monster", but in this round of the series, he never felt that his wingspan was "qualified".

Basketball hits the iron and flies high.

Jordan and Pippen were about to run to the frontcourt and hit their opponents with a weak foothold, but... the basketball was once again scooped up by No. 29 of the Lakers.Then I only heard Tang Qian say: "Keep shooting, TM!" McGrady made another shot, but still missed!It can be seen that Pippen has given him great defensive pressure throughout the series.

"It's okay! Shoot again!" The rebound was snatched by No. 29 of the Lakers, and he grabbed two offensive rebounds in a row!
McGrady made the third outside shot, brushed, and finally shot through the Bulls' No. 33 long-arm defense!

"Great job! TM! Just keep going!"

Tang Qian didn't mention the fact that McGrady made [-] of [-] shots in this round, which made McGrady feel a lot better. Of course, the most important thing is that he forced his opponent into the net!For the opposing players, psychological recovery is very important!Otherwise, McGrady will be under the defensive suppression of Scottie Pippen all the time, and McGrady will probably become more impatient and lose confidence and tactics as he plays.

How to restore the self-confidence and confidence of a super scorer?How to activate the state and feel of a super scorer?

Tang Qian gave the most perfect answer in the second half of tonight.

Feed the ball, and keep feeding the ball until it comes out.

This is the way to feed a sharpshooter. If you don’t feel good, are not in good shape, and don’t have enough talent, there is no problem. As long as you are willing to feed bullets, you will always reach an average level.What's more, McGrady is originally a super talented type. After being fed the ball like this by Tang Qian, the more he casts, the more confidence he recovers, and the more he casts, the hotter he is.On the offensive end, McGrady made another three-pointer, but this time it only took 2 shots.

47-60, because Jordan and Pippen also scored a goal each.

As Tang Qian said before, under the "Zen Master" triangle offensive system, both Jordan and Pippen will get the most comfortable and full singles opportunities, so it is difficult to contain the Lakers' outside players alone.If you want to come back, you can only bet on 3-pointers.

Because, a three-pointer is one point more than a two-pointer, isn't it?
By the end of the third quarter, the two sides were only 4 points away, because Tang Qian's team scored three-pointers in almost every round, and no matter what the shooting percentage was, the offensive round would end with a goal anyway.The Bulls' shooting percentage is also good, but compared with this situation on the opposite side, they lose a lot invisibly.

66-69, during the break, Pippen was scolded by the "Zen Master" because he allowed his opponent Tracy McGrady to score almost 20 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, which is advocating high-intensity perimeter defense Jackson couldn't stand it.Having said that, during the Bulls period, Jackson was the head coach who combined the western coaching style and the eastern coaching style.And the eastern coaching style, he basically used it on the defensive end of the Bulls.On the offensive end, your stars can be fully one-on-one, and even a little willful is harmless, but if anyone dares to "lazy" on the defensive end, then he will definitely be scolded by Jackson.

It doesn't matter if you're Jordan or Pippen, it's the same.

In fact, Jackson used the "aggressive method" against Jordan a lot.

"Scotty, if you get blown up by the Magic No. 1 again in the fourth quarter, you just wait to stay and participate in my post-game training camp. You know I never lie." Pippen faced "Zen Master" could only bow his head, expressing that he would definitely work harder in the future to try to block that Tracy McGrady.In fact, the Bulls' No. 33 defense is already very strong. It is true that McGrady has entered "The.Zone" on the offensive end. As for Pippen, he is even better than McGrady. .This is also the reason why McGrady couldn't open it at the beginning, and it didn't go well.

Without Tang Qian's strong intervention, it is estimated that McGrady will soon be prevented by Pippen from falling out of "The.Zone" in this game, and then completely suppressed.Whether it is Explosion or Explosion, or "The.Zone" and "Super God", they are not a stable and solidified state. If the opponent continues to "explode" you, you will soon fall out and be devastated.

It's just a pity that no matter how good Pippen is, he is not as good as Tang Qian. If an inside line is "wrapped", then for outside players, it is a voice from heaven!It's really not an exaggeration, because outside shooting is very dependent on form and touch. If the rebound is not strong, the shooting will only get worse and worse, and it will never be better.Under Tang Qian's almost abnormal rebounding, let alone McGrady, who didn't benefit from Ray Allen or Curry?Who hasn't produced psychological changes?

The feeling of shooting, straight up!The accuracy of the shooting, the straight line is so red!

After training Pippen, Jackson turned his head and said with a more serious expression: "And you, Dennis, you are the 7-game rebounding leader. Could it be that you can't even handle an Eastern center? Even if you can't handle it, that's okay. Please protect a few defensive rebounds a little bit, okay? Isn’t this request too much?” Rodman rarely said anything, because he knew in his heart that it wasn’t Jackson’s fault, it was his own problem.He underestimated that Eastern center too much. The rebounding ability of that Eastern center is much stronger than the four major centers in the 90s!If I continue to play around like this, I will probably be blown up miserably!

"I see, coach, it's my responsibility. I will do my best later." Rodman generally rarely addresses the team's head coach in such a formal way. The coaches are all cynical.But once he has this kind of change, it means that the "flower worm" has to be completely serious.And it is the kind of seriousness that is absolutely not mixed with water.Phil Jackson was taken aback for a moment, then smiled again at the corner of his mouth and said, "That's right, you are Dennis Rodman, the rebounding monster that the four major centers in the 90s feared! How could you lose to a brat? ?”

"As long as you protect the rebounds and continue to implement the triangle offense on the offensive end, then the opponent's gambling style of throwing three-pointers will undoubtedly die!" A style of play that focuses on dividing the ball is self-defeating.Well, even if it is the super warriors of later generations, it depends on who the opponent is.If it is Chicago, the pinnacle dynasty, then it will not be flattering. "Zen Master" Phil Jackson has full confidence in his team and players at this point.

Will the Tang Qian team change their style of play just because they are catching up?McCure had this plan and accepted it as soon as it was good, but he was strongly opposed by No. 29 of the Lakers.The latter said directly that it is not safe to hit 2 points, but it is safe to hit 3 points.

It sounds so strange no matter how you hear it.

I have only heard the saying that playing 2-pointers is safe. When did 3-pointers become "insured"?But if it weren't for the crazy rebound of the Lakers' No. 3 in the third quarter, then they wouldn't be able to catch up.Looking at the statistics, Tang Qian's shots in the third quarter almost surpassed half of the Bulls' shots!This is the guaranteed power of rebounding!

So they are not easy to refute.

McGrady hesitated for a while, and chose to break through with 2 points, but the ball was intercepted by Pippen. Pippen seemed to be scolded by Jackson for his energy, and his momentum seemed to be much higher than the previous three quarters. .Besides, Pippen is the top wing defensive player in the NBA, and now that the defensive end has entered the "super god", do you think McGrady can be so easy to eat alone?

"Protect the rebound! Dennis!"

When Tang Qian was about to move, a person had already grabbed ahead of him. His movements and speed were much stronger than before.

This feeling... Rodman rebounds "super god"? ? ?I go, how did "Zen Master" Jackson do it? ? ?How could he improve the status of the two Bulls players in just one break? ? ?Is this the so-called ability to "manipulate stars"? ? ?
After Rodman rebounded "Super God", he reached a perverted state. Tang Qian was completely suppressed whether he was stuck or moved.This is really not a joke. Rodman originally thought that his rebounding ability was almost the same as Tang Qian's. After being "super god", he broke through the sky immediately!Tang Qian tried it, and the former's changes in back sensing and the application of the center of gravity have entered an unimaginable level. No matter how he fights for the position, it will be of no avail.

It's really amazing, as expected of my teacher, he is still so lively at such an old age! At the age of 37~38, he can still win the league's rebounding champion, which is indeed not in vain!But...it's useless even if you are a "super god" tonight, because the rebound is definitely mine!

In Rodman's unbelievable eyes, No. 29 of the Lakers jumped from behind and took the rebound first!

He took the rebound without getting stuck?Or offensive rebounding?This...how is this possible?

Tang Qian threw it to Curry who was outside the 3-point line, and said: "Shoot, Stephen, I have the rebound!"

Talking like this is not just for the sake of being handsome and second-year. In fact, the more confident you are, the more arrogant you are. For your teammates on the field, it will improve the confidence of your teammates to a certain extent.Curry made a shot, hit a 3-pointer, and the basketball went into the net hollow.

In the fourth quarter, the Tang Qian team tied the score in less than 24 seconds, 69-69, which played a big role in improving morale.

Exhilarating!

The next five or six minutes were the time when Tang Qian's team gradually gained the upper hand. Each round had to score a three-pointer before it was declared over. The blow to the Bulls was not ordinary.Five or six minutes later, the score difference between the two sides has changed from the Bulls leading to the Tang Qian team leading.

85-76, with a gap of 9 points, it seems that the balance of victory has begun to tilt.
