NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade
Chapter 108 It’s not that they are vulnerable, it’s that we are too strong!
Chapter 108 It’s not that they are vulnerable, it’s that we are too strong!
The Sonics did not make any major trades or personnel changes in the middle of this season. They still relied on their ace trio: 'Rainman' Kemp, 'German Heavy Artillery' Schrempf, ' Gloves' Payton, the styles of these three people are actually very weird!
Kemp is a rough guy with first-class mid-range shooting ability!Top physical fitness and first-class touch make him a great threat on the offensive end.
Therefore, whether he is catching the ball and shooting after the pick-and-roll, or whether he is making dunks along the way, he is at the top level in the league!
It can be said that Kemp is a bit like a weakened and physically stronger version of Malone!Of course, in terms of basketball IQ, court strength, etc., Kemp still cannot compare to Malone.
As for Payton, although he is a point guard, his playing style is extremely fierce!He doesn't have the elegance and calmness of a traditional point guard. He is the most passionate person on the team!
He is based on defense, and his defense can make all backcourts in the league fearful!On the offensive end, he is proficient in almost all offensive methods and can torture different opponents in different ways!
His super high basketball IQ allows him to always adjust his tactics based on the opponent's height, size, weight and personality when attacking with the ball!A guy who is rough on the outside and thin on the inside, and is very good at deceiving others with his appearance.
Coupled with the tall turret, Schrempf rarely enters the paint and prefers to throw three-pointers from the outside without confrontation.
This trio of SuperSonics players has to be said to be weirder than the last. They all belong to a type that you can't find a similar type in the league.
But obviously, no matter whether the SuperSonics are a trident or a Big Three, whether the Bulls are an Iron Triangle or the Four Kings, Chicagoans are ready to accept the challenge from Seattle!
Time flies to the day of the first game of the Finals. With 6-7 hours left before the game, players from both sides have arrived at the United Center early.
After all, it is the finals, and everyone takes it very seriously!
In order to reduce the fatigue and unnecessary travel between the Eastern and Western teams, the finals adopted a 2-3-2 format, that is, playing two games in the Bulls first, then three games in Seattle, and finally The two games will return to Chicago to continue!
In Lin Tian's memory, the process of this round of finals was actually a bit strange.
In terms of team performance, in the first three games, the Bulls were chopping things up and chopping vegetables. They won 3 consecutive victories and got the match point with an absolute advantage of 3:0. But then, they lost consecutively in Seattle. Two games before successfully winning in Chicago in Game [-].
Even in the sixth game, the Bulls did not have the dominance they had in the first three games. They played very anxiously throughout the game. In this game, Jordan even played the worst finals game in his career. : 19 for 5 shots!
It wasn't until the last few minutes of the game that the Bulls relied on key shots from Jordan, Kukoc and others to open up the score and seal the victory.
It only took a few minutes of hard work and luck for the SuperSonics to drag the game into a tiebreaker!
In addition, in terms of personal performance, Jordan's statistics and efficiency in this round of the finals were the worst among his six trips to the finals. It was also this finals that many people later called "Pen". Dun limited Jordan to Kobe's level."
But as Lin Tian, who has actually watched this round of games and even went to watch two games live, he knows that although Jordan played poorly in this round of series, it is not due to Payton alone!
In this series, George Karl developed a set of 'Jordan Rules' similar to the Pistons' Bad Boys.
That is to use Payton or Hawkins as the first line to defend Jordan. Once Jordan turns his back or breaks through the first layer of defense, other members of the Sonics such as Schrempf, Perkins and others He would rush in front of Jordan immediately and use multiple levels, multiple numbers, multiple fouls and multiple confrontations to limit Jordan to Kobe's level.
But this time, the Bulls have an extra Lin Tian out of thin air, which means that the Bulls have a strong branch that makes the Sonics have to concentrate on defense. So, can the SuperSonics' tactics still work? , that’s hard to say!
In the last preparation meeting before the game, Jackson once again took out his tactical board in the locker room and talked about the Sonics again and again.
"Everyone, I think you all still remember that in this year's regular season, we tied with the Sonics with one win and one loss. Of course, when we won that game, we also gave Payton and Kemp a little lesson. Lin, I still enjoy thinking about those punches you made! But this is the finals, you’d better put away your fists!”
Jackson's joke made everyone burst into laughter. Everyone also recalled the glorious history of Lin Tian's old punch in the second month of the regular season, which took 10 seconds to knock out three Sonics players!
"But of course, what I want to say is not this. What I want to say is that the SuperSonics we are about to face today is the same team as the team we faced in the regular season. Although the composition of their players is exactly the same, their playing style is the same. The law has changed drastically!"
"The simplest set of data can explain it all! In the regular season, the Sonics averaged 104.5 points per game, second in the league, and conceded 96.7 points per game, eighth in the league! In the regular season, they were top-notch offensively and accurate defensively. A top-notch offensive-minded team!”
"But in the playoffs, or starting from the second half of the regular season, the Sonics have obviously changed! Their playing style and tactics have undergone considerable changes. This is still the most intuitive set of data. After the season Since the game, their scoring average has dropped to 94.1 points per game, ranking eighth among playoff teams!"
"And their average points allowed per game dropped to 87.4 points! Ranking third in the playoffs!"
"As for the sudden improvement of the Sonics' defense, in addition to the contribution of Payton, the best defensive player, the new player they found this year, the former All-Star Jose Hawkins, has the greatest contribution! This once very good scorer , it can be said that he has washed away all his glory this season, completely giving up attacking with the ball, focusing on defense, and doing a very good job!"
"The Kings' Richmond, the Jazz's Hornacek and Stockton, including the Spurs' Johnson and Elliott, all suffered big losses under Hawkins! What are you doing when facing him? At this time, you must not underestimate the enemy!"
"It can be said that during the playoffs, the SuperSonics changed from an offensive team to a defense-first, slow-paced team! Their defense, confrontation and physical intensity were different from those against us in the regular season. They were not at the same level at all! So if you still regard them as the team they were in the regular season and want to compete offensively with them."
"Then we will definitely suffer a big loss! All of us must be prepared for this to be another round of decisive games like a meat grinder like the Knicks! We must be prepared for only 80 points, but we can also Let them only score 60 points to win! Do you understand?"
Don't worry, Phil!You have said these words countless times! "After Jackson finished his speech, Jordan stood up first and said: "We will not underestimate the enemy, never!We are fully prepared to kill all opponents who stand in our way! "
"Including our three previous opponents, the Pistons, Knicks, and Magic, we have never thought that these teams are bad teams and vulnerable! They are very strong! Each of us believes that these three teams are very good. powerful!"
"So, each of us knows that it's not that the opponents are bad, but that we are so good! We are so good that we can kill all our opponents! Just let the Sonics and George Karl come! Payton or Hawkins, too, Even if that guy Carl had a cerebral hemorrhage and asked Schrempf to defend me, I wouldn’t be afraid!”
"Come on one, just fuck one!"
"That's it!" Pippen stood up immediately and said: "There are still four games left, and we will be the championship! Our season will be over soon!"
"Kill them!" Lin Tian immediately stood up and yelled: "Kill these Seattleites, and then start our perfect vacation!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Sweep to win the championship!"
With the players shouting with excitement and performing with great momentum, Phil Jackson said with confidence: "Very good! Very good! I will be proud of you! Now, let us kill the Seattleites and give them a good look. Bar!"
"Kill them!"
"Fuck them!"
"Coach, I'm afraid not."
After another series of shouts, Lin Tian raised his hand, attracted everyone's attention and said: "It's only 2 o'clock in the afternoon, there are still 6 hours before the start of the game, we can't kill them now!"
"That's right! You really have very keen observation skills, and you are worthy of being our starting point guard tonight!" Jackson was exposed by Lin Tian, and he immediately narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Michael, haven't you been with me for several days? Is Lin Dou fighting? Go ahead and hit 100 again, forget it, let’s hit 50 goals! Save your energy and let me see if your low post skills have improved!"
"Come on Lin, let me show you my newly learned elbows, no, my newly learned steps!" Jordan laughed and pulled Lin Tian towards the training ground.
Facts have proved that there is not only one person in the Bulls who cannot be offended, but also a scheming Phil Jackson!
……
At 7:30 this evening, the United Center was once again packed.
The team returns to the finals stage again after two years, which is undoubtedly enough to make all fans excited!
I, Hu Hansan, am back!
Moreover, on this night, not only the inside of the United Center, but also the square outside was packed with dense fans!At first glance, there are at least 1 fans outside the arena!
And the shouts and howls they made were no less loud than the fans in the stadium. After all, these fans who came to the scene even though they knew they didn't have tickets were absolutely fanatical and crazy!
They are definitely the most loyal and passionate fans!
In the stadium at this time, the Bulls players appeared one after another, and each one of them received overwhelming cheers and shouts from the fans!No matter how many points these players score in each game or how many minutes they play, as long as they are a member of the team, they are their heroes!
And when the Sonics players walked into the stadium, the Chicago fans naturally didn't let Payton and the others feel left out. They gave out deafening boos to everyone on the Sonics team!
There is absolutely no favoritism, nor is there any targeting of any particular person.
All of you on the Sonics are trash!Everyone will be booed!
However, whether it is the Bulls or the SuperSonics, they are both veterans who are used to seeing big waves. Most of the main players and rotation players in the two teams have rich experience and have experienced various away games. !
To be even more clear, among all the players on both sides who average more than 10 minutes per game, the only one who can be called inexperienced is rookie Lin Tian. Everyone else is an old man!
In this round of the series, there is a high probability that the two sides will not collapse due to nervousness or lose their level!
In addition, Payton and Kemp are good friends not only on the court, but also off the court, and they will not have the infighting situation like the Magic.
"Hello, viewers, I am your old friend Smith, and this is my partner Marcus." In the CBS broadcast booth, veteran host Smith said with a smile: "And tonight we have a heavyweight guest, I believe all fans must know him!”
"Magic Johnson!"
"Hello everyone, I'm Johnson." Johnson, who officially announced his retirement after the end of this season and said he would never come back again, smiled and sat between the two hosts. Perhaps because he was determined to retire, he has recently Having relaxed his weight control, his current body shape is even bigger than during the regular season!
"Dear Erwin, what do you think of these two teams in the finals? Which one of them do you think can win tonight's game?" After the initial greeting session, Marcus quickly asked Bringing the topic into the game.
"The SuperSonics are great! They are in perfect shape in the Western Conference. Their defense in the playoffs has improved a whole level compared to the regular season! They have changed from an offensive team to a top defense-oriented team. Team! I have to say that to be able to do all this, they have an outstanding head coach and a perfect team!"
"I believe that this team can do everything and do everything. They deserve a championship. Therefore, I am optimistic that the Bulls will win the championship!"
Johnson's rainbow fart, coupled with the sudden twist at the end, almost made Marcus spit water out of his nostrils. He forcibly controlled his expression and said: "But the SuperSonics also have outstanding players. The regular season players At that time, the two teams also had one win and one loss, resulting in a tie!”
"Not bad." Smith quickly answered: "The SuperSonics' twin stars have the best understanding in the league, and their role lineup is also very complete. They can do the best in both offense and defense! In fact, I am very curious tonight. How are the Sonics going to deal with their matchups, are they going to match up Payton and Jordan?"
"Or are they going to use Hawkins, who also played excellent defense this year, to deal with Jordan? And, according to the roster, the Bulls will continue the starting lineup of the Eastern Conference Finals tonight, and they will let Lin Tian continue to be the starting point guard. After having a boxing match with Payton in the regular season, how should Lin Tian deal with Payton?"
"I like Lin! He is my favorite point guard among the new generation!" Johnson suddenly interjected: "I really admire him so much! His willpower, golf intelligence, speed, vision, and ability to distribute the ball, The ability to play in transition and handle the ball on the fast break, honestly, I feel like I’m seeing another version of me!”
"He really has potential and a chance to become another super point guard! But to be honest, I think Lin is somewhat wasted in the Bulls. He is at best the team's third choice here. If he can... "
"Ahem! Erwin, if you keep talking, you will be fined! You can't recruit any players here! Let us continue to watch the game!" Seeing that the magician was about to tell Lin Tian to join the Lakers Marcus coughed violently and interrupted the magician's words. This kind of live broadcast accident cannot happen here!
Money will be deducted!
Fortunately, the game had almost started at this time, and the magician just laughed, and wisely did not continue the topic.
He still remembers that he asked Lin Tian to train together in the summer!
At that time, you will have at least a whole month to stay with Lin Tian. Are you afraid that you will not be able to recruit him to the Lakers?
Don't worry, don't worry!
After I, West and the others go to convince the big monster, and then go to Lin Tian to slowly develop a relationship, I am not afraid that this kid will not come to Los Angeles!
After all, in the 90s, an era when the Internet was still underdeveloped, the attraction of the three words Los Angeles was absolutely inestimable!Countless players hope they can play for the Lakers, and countless people hope they can become a member of the Lakers!
This is the most popular city in the United States, and it is also the most prosperous and interesting city in the United States!
He didn't believe that Lin Tian would be willing to return to a terrible place like Chicago after experiencing the prosperity and perfect climate of Los Angeles!
On the court at this time, as the referee determined the time and slowly walked onto the court, the game officially started!
The Bulls continue to have the five-man combination of Longley, Rodman, Pippen, Jordan and Lin Tian, while the SuperSonics still have the most and best starting lineup they have used since the playoffs this year. A group of five.
Payton, Hawkins, Perkins, Schrempf and Kemp!
This lineup is slightly lacking in height, but it has considerable advantages in mobility, fierce defense and shooting range!
In the opening jump ball, Longley relied on his superhuman height to defeat Schrempf and get the first wave of the ball for the Bulls!
As soon as Lin Tian got the basketball, Payton quickly came over and pushed directly on Lin Tian's waist with both hands. It was a high-intensity confrontation!
Regarding this obvious foul, the referee decisively chose to ignore it!
Just kidding, this is the finals!
Don't let the referee blow the whistle for that kind of non-shooting foul that can't kill anyone!
"Boy, are you scared? Have you never seen this kind of scale? I tell you, you will be targeted like this in the entire series!" Payton let out a sinister laugh and continued his extremely aggressive defense. .
Lin Tian impatiently slapped Peyton's paw away from him, and said not to be outdone: "Who was beaten to death by me last time? If I were you, I would never continue to provoke. , but in order to survive, be a good and obedient person!"
"I bet you don't dare to take action! This is the finals!" said Payton, the veteran: "If you dare to take action in the finals, you will become a sinner in Chicago! As for me, don't worry, I will definitely not fight back. I will definitely Let you have fun, and then you can say goodbye to this series in advance! How about it? Do you still want to try it? "
"First, it's not that you don't know how to fight back, but when the two of us fight, you have no chance or possibility to fight back! I will beat you down before you fight back! Second, if I really do it , I guarantee that the time you spend lying on the hospital bed will be longer than the time I was suspended! If you are not afraid, you can just try to mess with me!"
After Lin Tian finished speaking, Payton suddenly felt a huge shadow beside him. When he looked up, he found that Langley had come from nowhere and covered Lin Tian!
"I'm here!" Hawkins shouted, and he and Payton completed the defense switch, blocking Lin Tian. Then almost in the blink of an eye, Payton bypassed the screen, and Hawkins worked in tandem to double-team Lin Tian. !
Lin Tian's brows immediately frowned. In the first round of the game, the Sonics actually double-teamed him to defend him?Is your priority so high now?
Feeling the two men's fierce defense, Lin Tian quickly regained his composure, dribbling the ball and taking two steps back. After opening a safe distance, he began to observe the situation on the court!
Hawkins and Payton are both here, so who is guarding Jordan?
Apart from these two guys, if anyone else defends Jordan, isn't that just giving away food?
In just a moment, Lin Tian caught a glimpse of Schrempf huddled with Jordan out of the corner of his eye!
Serve!Have a feast!
After seeing these two guys facing each other, this word immediately came to Lin Tian's mind!
If Jordan is not allowed to play two, is it worthy of George Karl and Schrempf's mother?
Lin Tian dribbled back again, giving himself a little space to pass the ball. Then he held the ball with one hand and flicked it towards the left waist!
"Beautiful pass!" Jordan roared after receiving the ball. After a quick cross step, he passed Schrempf cleanly in one step, easily reached the basket, and succeeded in a layup! "Where are you, you weakling? Where are you?" After scoring the goal, Jordan looked at Schrempf and started trash-talking him!
The German ignored Jordan at all, as if nothing happened, he turned around and ran towards the frontcourt.
When it was the Sonics' turn to attack, Payton pushed against Lin Tian's defense and pushed all the way to the frontcourt. Lin Tian's pair of claws reciprocated, one after another, towards Payton's waist, stomach and elbows. call!
Anyway, the referee won’t call, so let’s see who can endure the beating better!
Peyton pulled Lin Tian's arm away impatiently and said, "Are you done?"
"It's not over!" Lin Tian said, while taking advantage of the referee not paying attention, he pinched Payton's waist again: "If you are unhappy, do it! Look who is lying on the ground!"
"FUXX!" Payton cursed angrily. He is famous for his 'glove'. He has been in the world for more than ten years. Except for Miller and Jordan, he can't criticize these two bastards. In terms of trash talk, when has he ever suffered a loss?
But it happened that I met Lin Tian today.
He is really helpless.
He couldn't win after fighting and scolding, so what could he do?
He can only choose to pass the ball!
Schrempf suddenly mentioned the free throw line at this time.
Payton made a cross pass, and Schrempf didn't stop after taking the ball and threw the basketball directly above the basket.
"boom!"
After a crisp sound, 'Rain Man' Kemp, the number one brutalist insider in the 90s, fell from the sky and completed a two-handed chop!
"Schrempf passed the ball really well! As a European player, although he is often criticized for his mediocre physical fitness, his skills, shooting and vision are also really good! When he was in Indiana, Have you ever had a season where you averaged 6 assists per game!”
Marcus immediately commented after this goal: "This season, Karl once again reused Schrempf's support and passing ability. His assists this season are 4.4, second on the team! His vision and passing ability His ball skills will definitely cause a lot of trouble for the Bulls!"
The magician continued: "But compared to Schrempf's pass, I am actually more curious now. Was Jordan's single against Schrempf just now caused by a tactical misalignment accident, or Karl's arrangement, really Do you want Schrempf to guard Jordan?"
The magician's words are actually exactly the same as what Lin Tian is thinking now!He also wanted to know whether the double-teaming on him just now, which put Schrempf against Jordan's defense, was an accident or a real arrangement!
So, after Lin Tian dribbled to the frontcourt again, he gave the ball to Jordan immediately!
Then, Schrempf took big steps and came forward again!
Real hammer!
Today, Karl is going to let Schrempf and Jordan go one-on-one!
Regarding Karl's strategy, Lin Tian said that he only had one thing to say.
"Michael, kill him!"
"Do you even need to say that?" After Jordan muttered, he suddenly started to break through, and then suddenly stopped just after reaching the 3-point line. He raised his hand and made a pull-up jump shot!
Although Schrempf is tall, his footsteps and movement have always been his weaknesses. Facing Jordan's emergency jump shot, he was helpless. Apart from a symbolic raise of his hand, he could not interfere with Jordan at all.
"Shh!"
After a crisp sound, Jordan hit another 2 points!
"Michael, did you send a woman to Karl's room last night? Or did you send yourself there? Otherwise, why the hell would he let such an idiot come to play against you? Isn't this asking you to refresh your data? ?" Lin Tian looked at Jordan, he was really confused and confused about Karl's choice.
Yes, Schrempf is not soft!On the contrary, he is tougher than most white and even black players in the league today!His temper is the standard Germanic temper: rigorous, calm, and not afraid of anything.
But even if he is not soft-tempered, Schrempf is indeed a white shooter. He does have rubbish physical fitness and slow movement speed!
On the defensive end, it is definitely no problem for him to deal with some pure insiders or skilled insiders, but can he be allowed to deal with outsiders?Not to mention a player of Jordan's level, among the black players in this league, you really can't find many who can't beat Schrempf in one step based on speed!
His speed and rhythm are really slow!
So... Lin Tian really couldn't figure out why Karl wanted to use heavy troops against him and even double-team him, but asked Schrempf to suicidally defend Jordan?
In the next few rounds, Lin Tian continued to feed Jordan the ball and watched him educate Schrempf. Facing Schrempf's defense, Jordan called seven in and seven out, as if there was no one in the game. Realm!
In less than half a quarter, Jordan scored 12 points!
The hit rate is as high as 80%!Schrempf's defense is probably not as tough as Grandma Jordan's defense!
But even so, depending on what Karl meant, he was still not ready to change his defensive tactics. Judging from his command, he actually asked Payton to continue to strengthen his defense against Lin Tian, so that Lin Tian would not hit the ball so easily.
Schrempf then went on to go one-on-one with Jordan!
Regarding this situation, Lin Tian said: Karl, are you out of your mind?
Wouldn't it be better if I didn't take the ball and just gave it to Jordan and let him advance from the baseline?
No matter how tight Payton's defense is, what's the use?
With this kind of defense, Jordan is probably going to break his own playoff scoring record tonight.
Therefore, Jordan played for 12 minutes in the entire first quarter, hitting 12 goals in 10 shots, plus 4 of 4 free throws, he scored 24 points in a single quarter!
Under the leadership of Jordan, although the rest of the Bulls only scored 8 points in total, their 32 points in a single quarter was enough to put them 6 points ahead of the SuperSonics!
32: 26.
The two sides did not open up a big gap in the first quarter, and the Sonics still maintained the possibility of overtaking the score at any time.
In the second quarter of the game, Jordan did not appear at the beginning, but played 8 minutes in the first quarter. Lin Tian, who did not take a shot but sent 5 assists, took the lead in leading the team!The Bulls players who appeared with Lin Tian were Cole, Pippen, Rodman and Wennington!
Jackson took out Lin Tian's five-man team again with unlimited shooting rights!
On the SuperSonics side, Schrempf, who was beaten by Jordan in the first quarter and almost doubted his life, sat on the court and kept panting. Even if he had the Germanic perseverance, it was almost exhausted at this moment. Got it!
Jordan's style of play is definitely a double blow of mental and physical pain to any defender!
In addition to Schrempf not having a rest, Johnson, who was also beaten by Lin Tian a few months ago, joined Kemp, Perkins, Payton and Iverson's future good partner Eric. The five Snows walked onto the court together!
In this lineup, the two stars of the Sonics actually appeared at the same time. Obviously, Karl meant to take advantage of Jordan's absence to let the Sonics chase the score!
In the first round on the court, Payton used Kemp's screen to get to the inside, scored 2 points with a floater, and began to chase points for the team.
The Bulls continued the first element of this lineup.
fast!
After Rodman was scored, he immediately carried the ball to the baseline and quickly sent the ball. Lin Tian took the basketball and ran towards the frontcourt!
Payton, who had just scored a layup, hadn't finished his provocation before Lin Tian was already dribbling the ball past the frontcourt!
No matter Snow's ability, height or weight, he was completely unable to stop Lin Tian's advancement. Apart from opening his hands to occupy the defensive position as much as possible, he could only watch Lin Tian get to the basket and complete a one-stop. basket!
"Where are you Gary? Where are you? You are so slow, but you can't even catch my exhaust!" After Lin Tian scored, he immediately turned his head and taunted Payton!
This night, Lin Tian and Payton are destined to face off for a long time, so the more angry he is, the better!
Better to let all his sanity go!
After an angry Payton cursed, he dribbled the ball forward and moved forward.
"What did you say? Did you scold me? Try scolding me again. Believe it or not, I will beat your grandson!" Lin Tian blocked Payton's impact route while squeezing Payton's waist again. A handful!When Payton comes home tonight, he will definitely see that his stomach is full of gifts and scars given to him by Lin Tian!
"Can you shut up?" Payton was really a little annoyed at this moment. He reached out and pulled away Lin Tian's hand on his body. If he couldn't beat Lin Tian, he really wanted to beat him!
"I'm just asking you if you scolded me. Are you a man? You don't dare to admit that you scolded me? Are you afraid that I will beat you?"
"Yes, I scolded you! I said FUXX! I also said you are a bitch! What's wrong!" Payton really couldn't help it. How could anyone in the arena keep chasing him and asking, "Did you scold me?" You scolded me. I don't have anyone?
Neuropathy!
"Referee, look, he cursed! Did you hear it? He was so loud!" Lin Tian suddenly stopped, pointed at Payton, and complained to the referee on the sidelines.
"No, you are sick!" If it were not the finals, Payton would have smashed the ball directly on the ground, walked over and had a good chat with Lin Tian to see what this kid wanted to do.
How can anyone complain to someone even if they curse?Shameless?
But just when Payton spread his hands and felt that Lin Tian was not in his right mind...
Lin Tian's big hand grabbed the basketball in his hand.
"Bang!" After a crisp sound, Lin Tian cut the basketball from Payton's hand and launched another counterattack toward the frontcourt!
"boom!"
There was another sound of beating the basket, and Lin Tian scored another 2 points for the Bulls!
"What are you doing, Gary? Are you asleep? Do you still think of the strong man who brought you endless happiness last night? Do you need me to introduce you to another one?" Lin Tian, who was making steals and dunks, turned around and immediately He taunted Payton!
"Boy, you are dead! You must be dead! I will definitely beat you up tonight!" After being fooled by Lin Tian and being completely humiliated by his steal, Payton immediately shouted angrily at Lin Tian rushed over, he wanted to educate Lin Tian!
"Scott, it's your turn! Kill him!" Lin Tian turned around and ran towards Perkins next to him without even thinking about it.
He and Pippen switched defenses!
Just run away if you offend someone, so exciting!
Pippen showed a ferocious smile, stuck to Payton and said: "Come on, little darling, let's make out and make out!"
"You guys from the Bulls are all bastards and idiots!" After Payton cursed, he quickly regained his composure. Instead of forcing a one-on-one attack on Pippen, he took a few steps back and pulled away again for himself. There is quite a lot of space to attack, and you can observe the situation of the game.
Pippen defends himself, which means that Lin Tian, who is 191 centimeters tall and has mediocre strength, faces Perkins, the Sonics' 206 centimeters forward!
Although Perkins' offensive level is just like that, Payton feels that it should be no problem to beat a rookie!
So, he immediately called an isolation tactic, asking the whole team to open up to Perkins, and then passed the ball to Perkins, who was stuck in the low post.
After Perkins got the ball, he immediately used his strength to hit Lin Tian behind him!
"Oh!"
Lin Tian took two steps back. Compared with a real striker, his strength was still a bit inferior!
Perkins was overjoyed when he discovered that his strength could crush Lin Tian.
He immediately exerted force again and hit Lin Tian again!
"Oh!"
After this, Lin Tian had retreated to an area close to the 3-second zone!Perkins basically reached his own offensive area. He made his third and final effort. According to Perkins's idea, after this, he could turn around and go for a layup!
But this time, he couldn't wait for the physical confrontation he imagined!
His back was completely empty!
Lin Tian saw the opportunity, pulled out the chair for Perkins, and moved directly to one side.
Then Lin Tian saw that Perkins lost his balance, and the moment before he fell, he took it out, broke the basketball from Perkins' hand again, and then launched another counterattack towards the front court!
However, this time Lin Tian started too far back. By the time he reached the frontcourt, the Sonics' defensive formation was almost ready. Except for Perkins, who lost his balance and fell and was unable to get to the position in time, everyone else was Already in place!
Facing the top defensive formation in this season's playoffs, Lin Tian didn't hesitate and paused. After a fake move, he went straight into the inside!
"Boy, you are looking for death!" Johnson, who had been violently beaten by Lin Tian, immediately brightened up. He felt that the opportunity for revenge had come!So he immediately took a step forward and blocked Lin Tian's attack route.
But Lin Tian's steps suddenly stopped, and the basketball in his hand disappeared!
In the bottom corner on the other side, Cole, who was completely left open because Perkins failed to return to defense in time, received the ball, adjusted slightly, and then jumped up and shot very decisively!
"Shh!"
After a wonderful crisp sound, Cole added the icing on the cake with another 3 points!
39: 28!
The point difference in this game reached double digits for the first time!
Karl on the sidelines made a quick decision, stood up immediately, and applied for a timeout!
The game in the second quarter really exceeded his expectations!
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Jordan's absence to allow the duo of Payton and Kemp to quickly catch up with some points, but he did not expect that Lin Tian's two steals directly brought the Sonics' scoring and offense to a standstill, and the point difference was actually Expanded rapidly!
Karl's strategy at the beginning of the second quarter was a steal!
(End of this chapter)
The Sonics did not make any major trades or personnel changes in the middle of this season. They still relied on their ace trio: 'Rainman' Kemp, 'German Heavy Artillery' Schrempf, ' Gloves' Payton, the styles of these three people are actually very weird!
Kemp is a rough guy with first-class mid-range shooting ability!Top physical fitness and first-class touch make him a great threat on the offensive end.
Therefore, whether he is catching the ball and shooting after the pick-and-roll, or whether he is making dunks along the way, he is at the top level in the league!
It can be said that Kemp is a bit like a weakened and physically stronger version of Malone!Of course, in terms of basketball IQ, court strength, etc., Kemp still cannot compare to Malone.
As for Payton, although he is a point guard, his playing style is extremely fierce!He doesn't have the elegance and calmness of a traditional point guard. He is the most passionate person on the team!
He is based on defense, and his defense can make all backcourts in the league fearful!On the offensive end, he is proficient in almost all offensive methods and can torture different opponents in different ways!
His super high basketball IQ allows him to always adjust his tactics based on the opponent's height, size, weight and personality when attacking with the ball!A guy who is rough on the outside and thin on the inside, and is very good at deceiving others with his appearance.
Coupled with the tall turret, Schrempf rarely enters the paint and prefers to throw three-pointers from the outside without confrontation.
This trio of SuperSonics players has to be said to be weirder than the last. They all belong to a type that you can't find a similar type in the league.
But obviously, no matter whether the SuperSonics are a trident or a Big Three, whether the Bulls are an Iron Triangle or the Four Kings, Chicagoans are ready to accept the challenge from Seattle!
Time flies to the day of the first game of the Finals. With 6-7 hours left before the game, players from both sides have arrived at the United Center early.
After all, it is the finals, and everyone takes it very seriously!
In order to reduce the fatigue and unnecessary travel between the Eastern and Western teams, the finals adopted a 2-3-2 format, that is, playing two games in the Bulls first, then three games in Seattle, and finally The two games will return to Chicago to continue!
In Lin Tian's memory, the process of this round of finals was actually a bit strange.
In terms of team performance, in the first three games, the Bulls were chopping things up and chopping vegetables. They won 3 consecutive victories and got the match point with an absolute advantage of 3:0. But then, they lost consecutively in Seattle. Two games before successfully winning in Chicago in Game [-].
Even in the sixth game, the Bulls did not have the dominance they had in the first three games. They played very anxiously throughout the game. In this game, Jordan even played the worst finals game in his career. : 19 for 5 shots!
It wasn't until the last few minutes of the game that the Bulls relied on key shots from Jordan, Kukoc and others to open up the score and seal the victory.
It only took a few minutes of hard work and luck for the SuperSonics to drag the game into a tiebreaker!
In addition, in terms of personal performance, Jordan's statistics and efficiency in this round of the finals were the worst among his six trips to the finals. It was also this finals that many people later called "Pen". Dun limited Jordan to Kobe's level."
But as Lin Tian, who has actually watched this round of games and even went to watch two games live, he knows that although Jordan played poorly in this round of series, it is not due to Payton alone!
In this series, George Karl developed a set of 'Jordan Rules' similar to the Pistons' Bad Boys.
That is to use Payton or Hawkins as the first line to defend Jordan. Once Jordan turns his back or breaks through the first layer of defense, other members of the Sonics such as Schrempf, Perkins and others He would rush in front of Jordan immediately and use multiple levels, multiple numbers, multiple fouls and multiple confrontations to limit Jordan to Kobe's level.
But this time, the Bulls have an extra Lin Tian out of thin air, which means that the Bulls have a strong branch that makes the Sonics have to concentrate on defense. So, can the SuperSonics' tactics still work? , that’s hard to say!
In the last preparation meeting before the game, Jackson once again took out his tactical board in the locker room and talked about the Sonics again and again.
"Everyone, I think you all still remember that in this year's regular season, we tied with the Sonics with one win and one loss. Of course, when we won that game, we also gave Payton and Kemp a little lesson. Lin, I still enjoy thinking about those punches you made! But this is the finals, you’d better put away your fists!”
Jackson's joke made everyone burst into laughter. Everyone also recalled the glorious history of Lin Tian's old punch in the second month of the regular season, which took 10 seconds to knock out three Sonics players!
"But of course, what I want to say is not this. What I want to say is that the SuperSonics we are about to face today is the same team as the team we faced in the regular season. Although the composition of their players is exactly the same, their playing style is the same. The law has changed drastically!"
"The simplest set of data can explain it all! In the regular season, the Sonics averaged 104.5 points per game, second in the league, and conceded 96.7 points per game, eighth in the league! In the regular season, they were top-notch offensively and accurate defensively. A top-notch offensive-minded team!”
"But in the playoffs, or starting from the second half of the regular season, the Sonics have obviously changed! Their playing style and tactics have undergone considerable changes. This is still the most intuitive set of data. After the season Since the game, their scoring average has dropped to 94.1 points per game, ranking eighth among playoff teams!"
"And their average points allowed per game dropped to 87.4 points! Ranking third in the playoffs!"
"As for the sudden improvement of the Sonics' defense, in addition to the contribution of Payton, the best defensive player, the new player they found this year, the former All-Star Jose Hawkins, has the greatest contribution! This once very good scorer , it can be said that he has washed away all his glory this season, completely giving up attacking with the ball, focusing on defense, and doing a very good job!"
"The Kings' Richmond, the Jazz's Hornacek and Stockton, including the Spurs' Johnson and Elliott, all suffered big losses under Hawkins! What are you doing when facing him? At this time, you must not underestimate the enemy!"
"It can be said that during the playoffs, the SuperSonics changed from an offensive team to a defense-first, slow-paced team! Their defense, confrontation and physical intensity were different from those against us in the regular season. They were not at the same level at all! So if you still regard them as the team they were in the regular season and want to compete offensively with them."
"Then we will definitely suffer a big loss! All of us must be prepared for this to be another round of decisive games like a meat grinder like the Knicks! We must be prepared for only 80 points, but we can also Let them only score 60 points to win! Do you understand?"
Don't worry, Phil!You have said these words countless times! "After Jackson finished his speech, Jordan stood up first and said: "We will not underestimate the enemy, never!We are fully prepared to kill all opponents who stand in our way! "
"Including our three previous opponents, the Pistons, Knicks, and Magic, we have never thought that these teams are bad teams and vulnerable! They are very strong! Each of us believes that these three teams are very good. powerful!"
"So, each of us knows that it's not that the opponents are bad, but that we are so good! We are so good that we can kill all our opponents! Just let the Sonics and George Karl come! Payton or Hawkins, too, Even if that guy Carl had a cerebral hemorrhage and asked Schrempf to defend me, I wouldn’t be afraid!”
"Come on one, just fuck one!"
"That's it!" Pippen stood up immediately and said: "There are still four games left, and we will be the championship! Our season will be over soon!"
"Kill them!" Lin Tian immediately stood up and yelled: "Kill these Seattleites, and then start our perfect vacation!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Sweep to win the championship!"
With the players shouting with excitement and performing with great momentum, Phil Jackson said with confidence: "Very good! Very good! I will be proud of you! Now, let us kill the Seattleites and give them a good look. Bar!"
"Kill them!"
"Fuck them!"
"Coach, I'm afraid not."
After another series of shouts, Lin Tian raised his hand, attracted everyone's attention and said: "It's only 2 o'clock in the afternoon, there are still 6 hours before the start of the game, we can't kill them now!"
"That's right! You really have very keen observation skills, and you are worthy of being our starting point guard tonight!" Jackson was exposed by Lin Tian, and he immediately narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Michael, haven't you been with me for several days? Is Lin Dou fighting? Go ahead and hit 100 again, forget it, let’s hit 50 goals! Save your energy and let me see if your low post skills have improved!"
"Come on Lin, let me show you my newly learned elbows, no, my newly learned steps!" Jordan laughed and pulled Lin Tian towards the training ground.
Facts have proved that there is not only one person in the Bulls who cannot be offended, but also a scheming Phil Jackson!
……
At 7:30 this evening, the United Center was once again packed.
The team returns to the finals stage again after two years, which is undoubtedly enough to make all fans excited!
I, Hu Hansan, am back!
Moreover, on this night, not only the inside of the United Center, but also the square outside was packed with dense fans!At first glance, there are at least 1 fans outside the arena!
And the shouts and howls they made were no less loud than the fans in the stadium. After all, these fans who came to the scene even though they knew they didn't have tickets were absolutely fanatical and crazy!
They are definitely the most loyal and passionate fans!
In the stadium at this time, the Bulls players appeared one after another, and each one of them received overwhelming cheers and shouts from the fans!No matter how many points these players score in each game or how many minutes they play, as long as they are a member of the team, they are their heroes!
And when the Sonics players walked into the stadium, the Chicago fans naturally didn't let Payton and the others feel left out. They gave out deafening boos to everyone on the Sonics team!
There is absolutely no favoritism, nor is there any targeting of any particular person.
All of you on the Sonics are trash!Everyone will be booed!
However, whether it is the Bulls or the SuperSonics, they are both veterans who are used to seeing big waves. Most of the main players and rotation players in the two teams have rich experience and have experienced various away games. !
To be even more clear, among all the players on both sides who average more than 10 minutes per game, the only one who can be called inexperienced is rookie Lin Tian. Everyone else is an old man!
In this round of the series, there is a high probability that the two sides will not collapse due to nervousness or lose their level!
In addition, Payton and Kemp are good friends not only on the court, but also off the court, and they will not have the infighting situation like the Magic.
"Hello, viewers, I am your old friend Smith, and this is my partner Marcus." In the CBS broadcast booth, veteran host Smith said with a smile: "And tonight we have a heavyweight guest, I believe all fans must know him!”
"Magic Johnson!"
"Hello everyone, I'm Johnson." Johnson, who officially announced his retirement after the end of this season and said he would never come back again, smiled and sat between the two hosts. Perhaps because he was determined to retire, he has recently Having relaxed his weight control, his current body shape is even bigger than during the regular season!
"Dear Erwin, what do you think of these two teams in the finals? Which one of them do you think can win tonight's game?" After the initial greeting session, Marcus quickly asked Bringing the topic into the game.
"The SuperSonics are great! They are in perfect shape in the Western Conference. Their defense in the playoffs has improved a whole level compared to the regular season! They have changed from an offensive team to a top defense-oriented team. Team! I have to say that to be able to do all this, they have an outstanding head coach and a perfect team!"
"I believe that this team can do everything and do everything. They deserve a championship. Therefore, I am optimistic that the Bulls will win the championship!"
Johnson's rainbow fart, coupled with the sudden twist at the end, almost made Marcus spit water out of his nostrils. He forcibly controlled his expression and said: "But the SuperSonics also have outstanding players. The regular season players At that time, the two teams also had one win and one loss, resulting in a tie!”
"Not bad." Smith quickly answered: "The SuperSonics' twin stars have the best understanding in the league, and their role lineup is also very complete. They can do the best in both offense and defense! In fact, I am very curious tonight. How are the Sonics going to deal with their matchups, are they going to match up Payton and Jordan?"
"Or are they going to use Hawkins, who also played excellent defense this year, to deal with Jordan? And, according to the roster, the Bulls will continue the starting lineup of the Eastern Conference Finals tonight, and they will let Lin Tian continue to be the starting point guard. After having a boxing match with Payton in the regular season, how should Lin Tian deal with Payton?"
"I like Lin! He is my favorite point guard among the new generation!" Johnson suddenly interjected: "I really admire him so much! His willpower, golf intelligence, speed, vision, and ability to distribute the ball, The ability to play in transition and handle the ball on the fast break, honestly, I feel like I’m seeing another version of me!”
"He really has potential and a chance to become another super point guard! But to be honest, I think Lin is somewhat wasted in the Bulls. He is at best the team's third choice here. If he can... "
"Ahem! Erwin, if you keep talking, you will be fined! You can't recruit any players here! Let us continue to watch the game!" Seeing that the magician was about to tell Lin Tian to join the Lakers Marcus coughed violently and interrupted the magician's words. This kind of live broadcast accident cannot happen here!
Money will be deducted!
Fortunately, the game had almost started at this time, and the magician just laughed, and wisely did not continue the topic.
He still remembers that he asked Lin Tian to train together in the summer!
At that time, you will have at least a whole month to stay with Lin Tian. Are you afraid that you will not be able to recruit him to the Lakers?
Don't worry, don't worry!
After I, West and the others go to convince the big monster, and then go to Lin Tian to slowly develop a relationship, I am not afraid that this kid will not come to Los Angeles!
After all, in the 90s, an era when the Internet was still underdeveloped, the attraction of the three words Los Angeles was absolutely inestimable!Countless players hope they can play for the Lakers, and countless people hope they can become a member of the Lakers!
This is the most popular city in the United States, and it is also the most prosperous and interesting city in the United States!
He didn't believe that Lin Tian would be willing to return to a terrible place like Chicago after experiencing the prosperity and perfect climate of Los Angeles!
On the court at this time, as the referee determined the time and slowly walked onto the court, the game officially started!
The Bulls continue to have the five-man combination of Longley, Rodman, Pippen, Jordan and Lin Tian, while the SuperSonics still have the most and best starting lineup they have used since the playoffs this year. A group of five.
Payton, Hawkins, Perkins, Schrempf and Kemp!
This lineup is slightly lacking in height, but it has considerable advantages in mobility, fierce defense and shooting range!
In the opening jump ball, Longley relied on his superhuman height to defeat Schrempf and get the first wave of the ball for the Bulls!
As soon as Lin Tian got the basketball, Payton quickly came over and pushed directly on Lin Tian's waist with both hands. It was a high-intensity confrontation!
Regarding this obvious foul, the referee decisively chose to ignore it!
Just kidding, this is the finals!
Don't let the referee blow the whistle for that kind of non-shooting foul that can't kill anyone!
"Boy, are you scared? Have you never seen this kind of scale? I tell you, you will be targeted like this in the entire series!" Payton let out a sinister laugh and continued his extremely aggressive defense. .
Lin Tian impatiently slapped Peyton's paw away from him, and said not to be outdone: "Who was beaten to death by me last time? If I were you, I would never continue to provoke. , but in order to survive, be a good and obedient person!"
"I bet you don't dare to take action! This is the finals!" said Payton, the veteran: "If you dare to take action in the finals, you will become a sinner in Chicago! As for me, don't worry, I will definitely not fight back. I will definitely Let you have fun, and then you can say goodbye to this series in advance! How about it? Do you still want to try it? "
"First, it's not that you don't know how to fight back, but when the two of us fight, you have no chance or possibility to fight back! I will beat you down before you fight back! Second, if I really do it , I guarantee that the time you spend lying on the hospital bed will be longer than the time I was suspended! If you are not afraid, you can just try to mess with me!"
After Lin Tian finished speaking, Payton suddenly felt a huge shadow beside him. When he looked up, he found that Langley had come from nowhere and covered Lin Tian!
"I'm here!" Hawkins shouted, and he and Payton completed the defense switch, blocking Lin Tian. Then almost in the blink of an eye, Payton bypassed the screen, and Hawkins worked in tandem to double-team Lin Tian. !
Lin Tian's brows immediately frowned. In the first round of the game, the Sonics actually double-teamed him to defend him?Is your priority so high now?
Feeling the two men's fierce defense, Lin Tian quickly regained his composure, dribbling the ball and taking two steps back. After opening a safe distance, he began to observe the situation on the court!
Hawkins and Payton are both here, so who is guarding Jordan?
Apart from these two guys, if anyone else defends Jordan, isn't that just giving away food?
In just a moment, Lin Tian caught a glimpse of Schrempf huddled with Jordan out of the corner of his eye!
Serve!Have a feast!
After seeing these two guys facing each other, this word immediately came to Lin Tian's mind!
If Jordan is not allowed to play two, is it worthy of George Karl and Schrempf's mother?
Lin Tian dribbled back again, giving himself a little space to pass the ball. Then he held the ball with one hand and flicked it towards the left waist!
"Beautiful pass!" Jordan roared after receiving the ball. After a quick cross step, he passed Schrempf cleanly in one step, easily reached the basket, and succeeded in a layup! "Where are you, you weakling? Where are you?" After scoring the goal, Jordan looked at Schrempf and started trash-talking him!
The German ignored Jordan at all, as if nothing happened, he turned around and ran towards the frontcourt.
When it was the Sonics' turn to attack, Payton pushed against Lin Tian's defense and pushed all the way to the frontcourt. Lin Tian's pair of claws reciprocated, one after another, towards Payton's waist, stomach and elbows. call!
Anyway, the referee won’t call, so let’s see who can endure the beating better!
Peyton pulled Lin Tian's arm away impatiently and said, "Are you done?"
"It's not over!" Lin Tian said, while taking advantage of the referee not paying attention, he pinched Payton's waist again: "If you are unhappy, do it! Look who is lying on the ground!"
"FUXX!" Payton cursed angrily. He is famous for his 'glove'. He has been in the world for more than ten years. Except for Miller and Jordan, he can't criticize these two bastards. In terms of trash talk, when has he ever suffered a loss?
But it happened that I met Lin Tian today.
He is really helpless.
He couldn't win after fighting and scolding, so what could he do?
He can only choose to pass the ball!
Schrempf suddenly mentioned the free throw line at this time.
Payton made a cross pass, and Schrempf didn't stop after taking the ball and threw the basketball directly above the basket.
"boom!"
After a crisp sound, 'Rain Man' Kemp, the number one brutalist insider in the 90s, fell from the sky and completed a two-handed chop!
"Schrempf passed the ball really well! As a European player, although he is often criticized for his mediocre physical fitness, his skills, shooting and vision are also really good! When he was in Indiana, Have you ever had a season where you averaged 6 assists per game!”
Marcus immediately commented after this goal: "This season, Karl once again reused Schrempf's support and passing ability. His assists this season are 4.4, second on the team! His vision and passing ability His ball skills will definitely cause a lot of trouble for the Bulls!"
The magician continued: "But compared to Schrempf's pass, I am actually more curious now. Was Jordan's single against Schrempf just now caused by a tactical misalignment accident, or Karl's arrangement, really Do you want Schrempf to guard Jordan?"
The magician's words are actually exactly the same as what Lin Tian is thinking now!He also wanted to know whether the double-teaming on him just now, which put Schrempf against Jordan's defense, was an accident or a real arrangement!
So, after Lin Tian dribbled to the frontcourt again, he gave the ball to Jordan immediately!
Then, Schrempf took big steps and came forward again!
Real hammer!
Today, Karl is going to let Schrempf and Jordan go one-on-one!
Regarding Karl's strategy, Lin Tian said that he only had one thing to say.
"Michael, kill him!"
"Do you even need to say that?" After Jordan muttered, he suddenly started to break through, and then suddenly stopped just after reaching the 3-point line. He raised his hand and made a pull-up jump shot!
Although Schrempf is tall, his footsteps and movement have always been his weaknesses. Facing Jordan's emergency jump shot, he was helpless. Apart from a symbolic raise of his hand, he could not interfere with Jordan at all.
"Shh!"
After a crisp sound, Jordan hit another 2 points!
"Michael, did you send a woman to Karl's room last night? Or did you send yourself there? Otherwise, why the hell would he let such an idiot come to play against you? Isn't this asking you to refresh your data? ?" Lin Tian looked at Jordan, he was really confused and confused about Karl's choice.
Yes, Schrempf is not soft!On the contrary, he is tougher than most white and even black players in the league today!His temper is the standard Germanic temper: rigorous, calm, and not afraid of anything.
But even if he is not soft-tempered, Schrempf is indeed a white shooter. He does have rubbish physical fitness and slow movement speed!
On the defensive end, it is definitely no problem for him to deal with some pure insiders or skilled insiders, but can he be allowed to deal with outsiders?Not to mention a player of Jordan's level, among the black players in this league, you really can't find many who can't beat Schrempf in one step based on speed!
His speed and rhythm are really slow!
So... Lin Tian really couldn't figure out why Karl wanted to use heavy troops against him and even double-team him, but asked Schrempf to suicidally defend Jordan?
In the next few rounds, Lin Tian continued to feed Jordan the ball and watched him educate Schrempf. Facing Schrempf's defense, Jordan called seven in and seven out, as if there was no one in the game. Realm!
In less than half a quarter, Jordan scored 12 points!
The hit rate is as high as 80%!Schrempf's defense is probably not as tough as Grandma Jordan's defense!
But even so, depending on what Karl meant, he was still not ready to change his defensive tactics. Judging from his command, he actually asked Payton to continue to strengthen his defense against Lin Tian, so that Lin Tian would not hit the ball so easily.
Schrempf then went on to go one-on-one with Jordan!
Regarding this situation, Lin Tian said: Karl, are you out of your mind?
Wouldn't it be better if I didn't take the ball and just gave it to Jordan and let him advance from the baseline?
No matter how tight Payton's defense is, what's the use?
With this kind of defense, Jordan is probably going to break his own playoff scoring record tonight.
Therefore, Jordan played for 12 minutes in the entire first quarter, hitting 12 goals in 10 shots, plus 4 of 4 free throws, he scored 24 points in a single quarter!
Under the leadership of Jordan, although the rest of the Bulls only scored 8 points in total, their 32 points in a single quarter was enough to put them 6 points ahead of the SuperSonics!
32: 26.
The two sides did not open up a big gap in the first quarter, and the Sonics still maintained the possibility of overtaking the score at any time.
In the second quarter of the game, Jordan did not appear at the beginning, but played 8 minutes in the first quarter. Lin Tian, who did not take a shot but sent 5 assists, took the lead in leading the team!The Bulls players who appeared with Lin Tian were Cole, Pippen, Rodman and Wennington!
Jackson took out Lin Tian's five-man team again with unlimited shooting rights!
On the SuperSonics side, Schrempf, who was beaten by Jordan in the first quarter and almost doubted his life, sat on the court and kept panting. Even if he had the Germanic perseverance, it was almost exhausted at this moment. Got it!
Jordan's style of play is definitely a double blow of mental and physical pain to any defender!
In addition to Schrempf not having a rest, Johnson, who was also beaten by Lin Tian a few months ago, joined Kemp, Perkins, Payton and Iverson's future good partner Eric. The five Snows walked onto the court together!
In this lineup, the two stars of the Sonics actually appeared at the same time. Obviously, Karl meant to take advantage of Jordan's absence to let the Sonics chase the score!
In the first round on the court, Payton used Kemp's screen to get to the inside, scored 2 points with a floater, and began to chase points for the team.
The Bulls continued the first element of this lineup.
fast!
After Rodman was scored, he immediately carried the ball to the baseline and quickly sent the ball. Lin Tian took the basketball and ran towards the frontcourt!
Payton, who had just scored a layup, hadn't finished his provocation before Lin Tian was already dribbling the ball past the frontcourt!
No matter Snow's ability, height or weight, he was completely unable to stop Lin Tian's advancement. Apart from opening his hands to occupy the defensive position as much as possible, he could only watch Lin Tian get to the basket and complete a one-stop. basket!
"Where are you Gary? Where are you? You are so slow, but you can't even catch my exhaust!" After Lin Tian scored, he immediately turned his head and taunted Payton!
This night, Lin Tian and Payton are destined to face off for a long time, so the more angry he is, the better!
Better to let all his sanity go!
After an angry Payton cursed, he dribbled the ball forward and moved forward.
"What did you say? Did you scold me? Try scolding me again. Believe it or not, I will beat your grandson!" Lin Tian blocked Payton's impact route while squeezing Payton's waist again. A handful!When Payton comes home tonight, he will definitely see that his stomach is full of gifts and scars given to him by Lin Tian!
"Can you shut up?" Payton was really a little annoyed at this moment. He reached out and pulled away Lin Tian's hand on his body. If he couldn't beat Lin Tian, he really wanted to beat him!
"I'm just asking you if you scolded me. Are you a man? You don't dare to admit that you scolded me? Are you afraid that I will beat you?"
"Yes, I scolded you! I said FUXX! I also said you are a bitch! What's wrong!" Payton really couldn't help it. How could anyone in the arena keep chasing him and asking, "Did you scold me?" You scolded me. I don't have anyone?
Neuropathy!
"Referee, look, he cursed! Did you hear it? He was so loud!" Lin Tian suddenly stopped, pointed at Payton, and complained to the referee on the sidelines.
"No, you are sick!" If it were not the finals, Payton would have smashed the ball directly on the ground, walked over and had a good chat with Lin Tian to see what this kid wanted to do.
How can anyone complain to someone even if they curse?Shameless?
But just when Payton spread his hands and felt that Lin Tian was not in his right mind...
Lin Tian's big hand grabbed the basketball in his hand.
"Bang!" After a crisp sound, Lin Tian cut the basketball from Payton's hand and launched another counterattack toward the frontcourt!
"boom!"
There was another sound of beating the basket, and Lin Tian scored another 2 points for the Bulls!
"What are you doing, Gary? Are you asleep? Do you still think of the strong man who brought you endless happiness last night? Do you need me to introduce you to another one?" Lin Tian, who was making steals and dunks, turned around and immediately He taunted Payton!
"Boy, you are dead! You must be dead! I will definitely beat you up tonight!" After being fooled by Lin Tian and being completely humiliated by his steal, Payton immediately shouted angrily at Lin Tian rushed over, he wanted to educate Lin Tian!
"Scott, it's your turn! Kill him!" Lin Tian turned around and ran towards Perkins next to him without even thinking about it.
He and Pippen switched defenses!
Just run away if you offend someone, so exciting!
Pippen showed a ferocious smile, stuck to Payton and said: "Come on, little darling, let's make out and make out!"
"You guys from the Bulls are all bastards and idiots!" After Payton cursed, he quickly regained his composure. Instead of forcing a one-on-one attack on Pippen, he took a few steps back and pulled away again for himself. There is quite a lot of space to attack, and you can observe the situation of the game.
Pippen defends himself, which means that Lin Tian, who is 191 centimeters tall and has mediocre strength, faces Perkins, the Sonics' 206 centimeters forward!
Although Perkins' offensive level is just like that, Payton feels that it should be no problem to beat a rookie!
So, he immediately called an isolation tactic, asking the whole team to open up to Perkins, and then passed the ball to Perkins, who was stuck in the low post.
After Perkins got the ball, he immediately used his strength to hit Lin Tian behind him!
"Oh!"
Lin Tian took two steps back. Compared with a real striker, his strength was still a bit inferior!
Perkins was overjoyed when he discovered that his strength could crush Lin Tian.
He immediately exerted force again and hit Lin Tian again!
"Oh!"
After this, Lin Tian had retreated to an area close to the 3-second zone!Perkins basically reached his own offensive area. He made his third and final effort. According to Perkins's idea, after this, he could turn around and go for a layup!
But this time, he couldn't wait for the physical confrontation he imagined!
His back was completely empty!
Lin Tian saw the opportunity, pulled out the chair for Perkins, and moved directly to one side.
Then Lin Tian saw that Perkins lost his balance, and the moment before he fell, he took it out, broke the basketball from Perkins' hand again, and then launched another counterattack towards the front court!
However, this time Lin Tian started too far back. By the time he reached the frontcourt, the Sonics' defensive formation was almost ready. Except for Perkins, who lost his balance and fell and was unable to get to the position in time, everyone else was Already in place!
Facing the top defensive formation in this season's playoffs, Lin Tian didn't hesitate and paused. After a fake move, he went straight into the inside!
"Boy, you are looking for death!" Johnson, who had been violently beaten by Lin Tian, immediately brightened up. He felt that the opportunity for revenge had come!So he immediately took a step forward and blocked Lin Tian's attack route.
But Lin Tian's steps suddenly stopped, and the basketball in his hand disappeared!
In the bottom corner on the other side, Cole, who was completely left open because Perkins failed to return to defense in time, received the ball, adjusted slightly, and then jumped up and shot very decisively!
"Shh!"
After a wonderful crisp sound, Cole added the icing on the cake with another 3 points!
39: 28!
The point difference in this game reached double digits for the first time!
Karl on the sidelines made a quick decision, stood up immediately, and applied for a timeout!
The game in the second quarter really exceeded his expectations!
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Jordan's absence to allow the duo of Payton and Kemp to quickly catch up with some points, but he did not expect that Lin Tian's two steals directly brought the Sonics' scoring and offense to a standstill, and the point difference was actually Expanded rapidly!
Karl's strategy at the beginning of the second quarter was a steal!
