Chapter 413 The Magician: Iron Fist's Three Threats Are Really the Hardest to Defend
22:12, the Bulls attack.

Jordan ran for a long time, borrowed Kevin Willis's pick-and-roll cover twice, and did not get rid of Zhou Quan.

He grabbed the ball with his right hand and swept behind him, with his left elbow in front of him, and he could start a breakthrough at any time.

Zhou Quan took a step forward, leaned over, like a leopard about to pounce, full of deterrence, even Jordan's nerves were tense at this time.

But Zhou Quan's sight was not focused. His full-level panoramic vision locked on Jordan, including Jordan's right hand holding the ball.

He is too familiar with Jordan. Facing his defense, Jordan has a high probability of using a tentative step to shake him, and then shoot or break through with the ball. The possibility of forcing him is very small.

When using the tentative step, when Jordan grabs the ball with his right hand, he usually breaks through from the right side, so that he does not need to change hands to control the ball.

However, there are accidents in everything, so he does not rule out Jordan's cheating, deliberately taking the risk of grabbing the ball with his right hand, and then breaking through from the left.

"Michael, be careful with his steals!" The nervous on-site commentator reminded at this time.

"squeak!"

Jordan started it, and his right foot suddenly stepped forward to the right. Under the force, there was a sharp sound of sneakers rubbing under his feet.

At the moment when Jordan started, Zhou Quan's full-level panoramic vision saw that Jordan's right hand catching the ball did not dribble downward, but disappeared behind his back.

There is only one possibility for this action, changing hands.

At this moment, the full-level panoramic vision immediately simulated a complete picture in his brain, and Jordan's left hand took the ball with his right hand.

Jordan didn't have time to pay attention to whether Zhou Quan was fooled. After the tentative step + changing hands, the next technical move was immediately coherent. He retracted his right foot, then stepped forward to the left side, and at the same time he pressed the ball forward with his left hand, starting his dribble breakthrough.

"squeak!"

Relying on accurate prediction, Zhou Quan took a big step laterally to the right and back in time, and got in front of Jordan with half a shot, and at the same time, he stabbed the basketball locked by him with his right hand precisely.

At this time, the basketball had just bounced off the floor, and before it fell into Jordan's hands, it was accurately intercepted by him.

"yeah!"

The reaction of the assassin and others was the fastest on the scene, cheering instantly.

"Steal! Zhou Quan stole Michael Jordan..." Zhang Reasonable's roar sounded.

"Oh, damn it! Michael made a mistake..." Magic Johnson lost his voice.

"asshole!"

On the field, Michael Jordan, who made a mistake and lost the ball, quickly countered on the spot.

But Zhou Quan's reaction was too fast. As soon as he got the ball, he immediately turned right and overshot Jordan from the left. Jordan chased after half a step.

"Oh oh oh……"

At this time, the [-] Supersonic fans reacted and gave out huge cheers.

"Squeak..."

On the left wing, the two were chasing each other, the intense fast break and chase, and the intensive friction of sneakers made the adrenaline of the fans on both sides immediately start to rush, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two.

With the ball in his left hand, when Zhou Quan hit beyond the three-point line, he didn't stop, began to change direction, and rushed to the paint area with all his strength.

Entering the penalty area from the left elbow area, he slowed down slightly, pulled the ball with his left hand, held the basketball high with one hand, then jumped up, opened his right elbow to block Jordan, who took off from the right and blocked the block, and held the ball in his left hand Chop down.

Michael Jordan tried his best to reach out to block the shot, but his body was blocked and he couldn't lean on it, and couldn't reach Zhou Quan's left hand.

"boom!"

The next moment, there was a loud explosion of baskets.

"Oh hoo!"

Two thousand fans of the visiting team gave out warm cheers.

Larry Bird praised: "There is an aerial confrontation. Michael Jordan's aerial confrontation ability is extremely strong, but it is a pity that Iron Fist's aerial confrontation ability is not weaker than him."

Magic Johnson said: "It shouldn't be blocked from the side, and the chance of blocking the cap from the rear should be greater."

Shaking his head, Larry Bird said: "Iron Fist is not a fool, then he only needs to dunk with both hands, unless Jordan pulls someone directly from behind and fouls maliciously."

"24:12, the score has doubled." Xu Jicheng said excitedly.

"Steal Jordan head-on, Zhou Quan is in really good shape tonight!" Zhang Lili laughed.

At this point the bulls attack.

The score fell behind, and there was no hope of getting it back, which caused the morale of the Bulls players to decline again and again. Jordan repeatedly reprimanded him to boost morale, but the effect was mediocre.

"Di!"

At this time, the referee blew a Schramf's pulling foul.

Phil Jackson took the opportunity to replace Kevin Willis and put on Toni Kukoc.

He believes that Kukoc and Jordan's pick-and-roll quality is better. Kukoc has a three-pointer and can run to the three-point line to make a pick-and-roll, but Willis can't.

Moreover, Kukoc can play several positions, including the second position, and his golf quotient is also very high.

In addition, it is also necessary to change the lineup on the field now, seek some changes, and see if they can produce some chemical effects.

"It seems that Phil Jackson gave up the Kevin Willis he traded in, which is a blow to his prestige." Larry Bird said.

"Winning is the most important thing." Magic said.

The Bulls went on the offensive again.

Michael Jordan received the ball at 45 degrees from the right-wing three-point line, holding the ball under the right ribs with both hands.

Zhou Quan poked the ball with his left hand from time to time, forcing Jordan to step aside from time to time, and the offensive rhythm was constantly disrupted.

At this time, Kukoc quickly ran up from the low post, ready to do a pick-and-roll, and Rodman followed closely.

Zhou Quan heard the sound of tight sneakers rubbing behind him, and knew that the Bulls were going to pick and roll, and immediately prepared to break the pick and roll.

Just before Kukoc stood to his right, he reached out to poke the ball again with half a beat, and then took the opportunity to complete the close, forcing Jordan to take a step back with the dribble.

At this time Rodman arrived, and immediately formed a double-team of Jordan with Zhou Quan, and the Bulls' pick-and-roll tactics were broken.

Seeing this, Kukoc immediately turned around and ran down again. Rodman gave up the double-team and followed up. On the three-point line, Jordan once again formed a situation where Jordan singles Zhou Quan.

"Come on, Flying Man, what are you afraid of?" Zhou Quan sprayed.

"I fear you?"

This trash talk made Jordan feel extremely humiliated. When did his singles become so timid?
This thought made his eyes turn red instantly, as if he had entered a state of madness.

"attack!"

On the sidelines, Phil Jackson shouted.

The triangle tactic is to create singles opportunities for Jordan. If Jordan can't play iron fists alone, then he thinks it is not a problem with his tactics, but a problem with Jordan's ability.

"The eyes are all red, is this an angry bull?"

Zhou Quan keenly saw the changes in Jordan's eyes, and the vigilance in his heart immediately raised to the highest level, sounding the alarm.

In the next moment, he seized the opportunity again, stepped forward with his left foot, and while leaning over, he stabbed Jordan's basketball with lightning with his left hand.

Using his powerful stealing ability, he once again implemented an active defense against Jordan. Even if he couldn't steal, he could interrupt Jordan's offensive rhythm.

Pressing you down before you go crazy is what he does.

This opportunity was seized too well. Jordan's basketball had just left his hand. Seeing Zhou Quan poking the ball, he wanted to react, but it was too late.

"Snapped!"

As soon as the basketball bounced off the floor, it was poked open by Zhou Quan's left hand.

Jordan hurriedly turned around to look for the ball, and only picked it up when he was chasing to the center line, but at this time the referee's whistle blew, a 24-second violation, and the ball was exchanged.

"Oh!"

Jordan was so angry that he slammed the ball on the floor and bounced high.

"Di!"

The referee did not forgive Jordan because this is Jordan's home court. He decisively called a technical foul and the Sonics made a free throw.

"Ugh!"

The home fans let out a sigh.

"Beautiful defense, even if it is as strong as Michael Jordan, under the threat of stealing from the iron fist, it still loses its behavior and wastes a possession of the ball in vain." Zhang Lili said excitedly.

"His hands are fast and accurate. I think Zhou Quan's steals are all at the moment when the opponent's ball leaves his hands. Many of his steals are made when the opponent is dribbling." Xu Jicheng said.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Looking at the slow motion, I can be sure that this is the case. At this time, the person holding the ball loses control of the ball, and it is the best time to steal.

But only if he can seize this opportunity, nerve reaction speed, hand speed, pace, all aspects must cooperate well to complete a steal. "

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "So for ordinary players to steal like this, it is easy to form a risky steal and make a lot of mistakes."

In the TNT commentary booth, when Larry Bird saw Jordan smashing the ball, he couldn't help but shook his head and said: "He lost his composure. "

Magic Johnson also had to shake his head and said: "This game is too critical. If they lose, the Bulls have a [-]% chance of not being able to pull it back. It can even be said that this is an early tiebreaker.

Now it's like this, it's understandable that Michael's mentality has problems.But I believe he can adjust back, he has such a psychological quality. "

On the field, Zhou Quan came to the frontcourt to execute a free throw. After hitting, 25:12, the Bulls trailed by 13 points.

Then he, Hawkins, and Schramf ran to the backcourt, ready to serve.

张合理说道：“周权目前4投4中，三分球2投2中，1罚1中，11分5助攻1抢断1盖帽。”

Xu Jicheng said: "Jordan made 5 of 3 shots, 3 of 2 three-pointers, 8 points and 2 turnovers, and his shooting percentage is also very high. Two turnovers, one was intercepted, and the other was a 24-second violation, which was also intercepted. Caused."

Zhang Lili continued: "The Sonics made 11 of 10 overall shots today. With Zhou Quan's assist, Gilliam, Hawkins, and Schramf hit five open shots in a row, and only Gilliam missed an open shot. , but he scored again in his second attack, this efficiency is not terrifying, but extremely terrifying."

Xu Jicheng nodded excitedly, and said: "The Bulls made 8 of 5 shots, 60% shooting rate, and their efficiency is actually very high, but Jordan made two turnovers and lost a defensive rebound, so he missed 3 shots. , Coupled with the super efficiency of the supersonic speed, so the score was greatly opened.

"Single defense!"

Jordan, whose mentality has changed, made a decision to blatantly change the defensive tactics that Phil Jackson arranged during the last timeout.

"what?"

Phil Jackson's heart sank when he heard Jordan's determined roar.

In a single defense, Jordan has never defended Zhou Quan. If he plays like this, can there be hope for the game?
And Jordan changed his attitude towards defensive tactics, expressing that he no longer trusts his tactics.

"Oh!"

Many media reporters at the scene heard Jordan's words and immediately exclaimed.

Barkley and Dameng heard it too, and couldn't help being stunned.

"Michael, calm down." Barkley stood up and shouted.

"To shut up!"

Jordan turned his head sharply, his appearance startled Barkley.

"Michael, calm down, don't be impulsive, you can't guard against him alone."

Phil Jackson didn't care about Jordan's face anymore, he wanted to fulfill his responsibilities as the head coach, so he shouted loudly.

But Jordan immediately turned around and shouted: "Do you know how many assists he has now? Do you know what the Sonic's shooting percentage is now? Go and see your statistics table."

Phil Jackson was dumbfounded, as were Barkley and others.

有一个西雅图邮报的记者马上大吼道：“超音速是11投10中，三分球4投4中，公牛是8投5中，三分球4投2中。”

The reporter from the Seattle Times next to him also yelled: "The King of Iron Fist has 5 assists and 1 indirect assist. He scored all 4 offenses by himself, and all the scores of the Sonics are related to him. You can't beat it, hurry up Surrender."

"To shut up!"

Jordan yelled angrily.

"Ha ha……"

Several Seattle reporters laughed together.

At this time, Schramf served the ball, Zhou Quan received the ball and advanced, Jordan went up to meet him, and at the same time roared again: "Single defense."

Pippen and others looked at the head coach on the sidelines, and ran to their respective people, starting single defense.

Phil Jackson was extremely disappointed, shook his head helplessly, sat back on the bench, closed his eyes slightly, and returned to the appearance of a Zen master.

"At this time, there is a dispute with the head coach. Jordan is a bit too strong." Larry Bird shook his head and said.

Magic Johnson said: "But now the Sonics' shooting rate is really amazing, which shows that Coach Phil Jackson's defensive tactics are completely unsuccessful. Michael's changing defensive tactics on the court is also an option.

Of course, he can communicate with the coach in advance, which is the best.Just didn't have the time just now, I think so. "

Zhou Quan pushed forward against Jordan, and when he was approaching the center line, when the right hand in possession of the ball pulled the ball up, he suddenly pushed forward.

"Pass?"

Jordan reacted immediately, instinctively stretched out his left arm, trying to intercept.

But at this time, Zhou Quan's right hand pulled back, and then turned around and jumped at Jordan from the left.

"The fake fax burst, Zhou Quan killed the center line, and Jordan didn't keep up."

Zhang Lili shouted excitedly when he saw Zhou Quan who had directly entered the penalty area with the ball.

Luke Langley on the left waist wanted to move two steps laterally to defend, but his speed was too slow. Zhou Quan rushed in and flew directly towards Toni Kukoc under the basket.

Seeing Zhou Quan's menacing approach and the impact visible to the naked eye, Kukoc, who was not tough in defense, directly gave up the idea of ​​blocking the shot and stepped aside.

"boom!"

In the next moment, there was an incomparably loud explosion of baskets.

"Oh hoo!"

Two thousand Supersonic fans and the bench, as well as Rodman and several other players on the field, raised their arms and cheered at the same time.

"With this momentum, morale, and state, the Supersonics will surely win!" Xu Jicheng said excitedly.

"It's really hard for Jordan to defend against Iron Fist alone. He doesn't have an advantage in speed, confrontation, mobility, technology, etc., or even at a disadvantage."

After a sentence of emotion, Larry Bird further analyzed: "More importantly, Iron Fist has top-notch breakthroughs, passing, and offense. Even in the backcourt, when he holds the ball, he also has very powerful breakthroughs and passing. of deterrence.

The fake fax in the backcourt just now took advantage of his breakthrough and the deterrent power of passing, so that Jordan was fooled.

Jordan can't ignore any breakthrough or passing action of Iron Fist, even in the backcourt, so he can't make targeted defense at all, and he is easy to be fooled. "

Magic Johnson nodded in a low mood and said: "The three threats of Iron Fist are indeed the most difficult to defend."
