NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 160 The best run-and-gun engine in the league!
He went all the way to the basket, but instead of rushing to take a shot against Hardaway, he dribbled the basketball and spun it around the basket twice, making Hardaway jump twice, and Lin Tian didn't even give the ball to him. Get rid of it!
Just when the Heat players were becoming less and less patient, and Hardaway even considered taking Lin Tian down to give him a foul, Lin Tian finally passed the ball!
The one who caught the ball was Longley, who was running all the way from the backcourt. He caught Lin Tian's pass, only took one step forward, and then suddenly jumped up!
His height of nearly 220 centimeters suddenly took off. To Hardaway, it was like an ancient behemoth running towards him!

Poor Hardaway had no time to react and was knocked out by Longley!
"boom!"

After an explosion, Langley succeeded in smashing the ball with both hands, and bursts of crazy roars broke out!

"Come on! Come on! You all think I'm just a supporting role, huh?"

"Nice buckle Luke!" Lin Tian stretched out his hand and gave the Australian a hard slap!If you want to beat the Heat tonight, the Bulls' role players must all play 120% of their combat effectiveness, otherwise they will never be able to defeat the desperate Heat!

Looking back, Hardaway, who had just been humiliated by Longley, used Brown's screen to bypass Lin Tian, ​​and then used a signature cross-step dribble, past Kukoc who was assisting in defense, and went straight to the inside. Facing Longley, he was Not afraid at all, he raised his hand and made a very high arc throw to avoid the block, and the basketball fell straight into the basket!
The Bulls didn't regret that they were scored on. Lin Tian yelled: "Ball!"

At the same time, he was already running towards the frontcourt. Langley's baseline ball was a bit outrageous as always, but with Lin Tian's full speed, he still managed to catch the basketball on the sideline of the frontcourt, but before he could stand still, Hada The double team of Way and Mashburn is here!
The Heat had no time to be proud. They finally succeeded in blocking Lin Tian in a blind corner, because Lin Tian threw the ball to the opposite corner at the same time as the two came up!
Standing there was Cole, who had just run to his position.

"Shoot, Steve! Let them see who is the league's three-point champion this year!"

Encouraged by Lin Tian, ​​Cole didn't adjust when he took the ball. No matter what Longley and Williams didn't even pass halftime, he just pulled up and shot a 3-pointer!
"Shh!"

This three-pointer that at least 90% of the league's coaches would angrily criticize as Hu's shot, accurately entered the basket!

The Bulls were so flashy that they completed an offense in just 4 seconds without even dribbling the ball!
"Wonderful! So wonderful! Longley's fast baseline ball, Lin Tian's diagonal pass! The Bulls broke the Heat's defense with two passes! Their offense was really beautiful! Quick! Decisive! Fierce! No hesitation!"

On the Heat's side, the basketball was given to Mashburn this time. Mashburn used his weight and strength in the low post to easily overwhelm Kukoc, forced a shot under the basket, and easily scored 2 points!
Kukoc was not frustrated at all when he was targeted because of his inability to compete with strength, because he immediately took advantage of his strengths!
Without even looking at Mashburn, who was about to spew trash talk, Kukoc turned around and came to the baseline. He picked up the ball and found Lin Tian with a long swing!

After Lin Tian got the ball, he continued to advance quickly without stopping. Without giving the Heat any chance to play in position, he had already entered the hinterland of the Heat again!

Leonard quickly returned to his position and opened his hands to defend, with Hardaway chasing after him. Lin Tian once again fell into a state of double-teaming, but the basketball in his hand did not stop at all. After attracting Leonard's attention, Lin Tian The basketball in Lin Tian's hand immediately took off and flew to the top of the basket.

Williams, nicknamed 'Bison', almost fell from the sky, grabbed the basketball with both hands and pushed it towards the basket!
At this moment, he seemed to be venting all the strength and anger he had accumulated over the past year. The rim was shaken by his tug, which made many people feel scared. They felt that the rim would be broken by him!

"boom!"

After a loud bang, Williams let go of the basket, fell to the ground, put his hands by his ears and made a bull horn gesture, which was his signature celebration!
'Bison' returns to the court!
The Bulls' continuous fast breaks made Hardaway a little excited. He took the baseline ball from his teammates and started to advance quickly. He wanted to compete with Lin Tian in his ability to switch offense and defense!
Before he came to the Heat, the tactics he played with the Warriors were recognized throughout the league as the originator of running and gunning!
Hardaway felt that if Lin Tian dared to fight in front of him, he would be reciting the Bible in front of Jesus!
court death!

After running at high speed all the way, Hardaway and Mourning quickly separated after a pick-and-roll at the top of the arc. Then he knocked the basketball in his hand on the ground and passed it to Mourning's hands.

Mourning held the ball against Longley, and once again rushed towards Longley without hesitation!
"Oh!"

After the two huge bodies faced off head-on in the air, Mourning just wanted to use his strength to knock Langley away, but he suddenly felt his whole body go weak again!
In desperation, he could only reluctantly take the shot. The basketball hit the basket and failed to score.

Langley continued to take off. After grabbing the backboard, he quickly passed it to Lin Tian. Then he ran fast and was about to participate in the fast rebound!
Mourning's two consecutive attacks did not excite him at all. I am the 'King of Australia'!Such a small scene is not worth celebrating at all!

Lin Tian once again ran fast with the ball, all the way to the Heat's frontcourt. This time the Heat finally learned the lesson and did not double-team him. Instead, Hardaway was allowed to face Lin Tian alone, while the others went their own ways. Find your own defender and prevent Lin Tian from easily finding an opening.

Seeing this situation, Lin Tian was not polite to Hardaway at all. After dribbling quickly to the mid-range, he made another emergency stop and took off, followed by a huge lying-back shot!

Not to mention that Hardaway is a small man and can't reach Lin Tian's shooting. Even if he changes to Marsh, who is over 2 meters tall, he can't easily interfere with Lin Tian's shooting!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, Lin Tian hit another 2-pointer!
What he improved the most tonight was not his passing!

Compared with peak Nash, even if Lin Tian's passing is not as sophisticated and clever as his, it is definitely not far behind!

The aspect where this experience card gives Lin Tian the biggest bonus is shooting!
Lin Tian's current shooting is only A-, which is a little above the league average, but Nash's shooting, if not S+, is at least S!

Lin Tian's shooting ability has directly improved by at least 4 levels!
Definitely an epic level of super enhancement!

He passes more, just because it is easier and more certain!
If the Heat really dared to let Hardaway, a short man, guard Lin Tian alone for the whole game, Lin Tian would let him know the pain of the Mavericks in minutes!

What does it mean to easily score 28 points on 20 of 48 shots in a single game just by shooting?

As long as the Heat want to watch, Lin Tian will never let them down!

In the next few minutes of the first quarter, Mourning attacked Longley twice and failed to succeed. That's fine. On the defensive end, Mourning was almost hung up and beaten by Longley!

A put-back dunk after grabbing an offensive rebound, a pass after a pick-and-roll and a layup, plus a rare display of low-post footwork from Longley that deflected Mourning's dunk in the first quarter. In less than 8 minutes of playing, Langley scored 4 points on 4 of 8 shots on the offensive end, and also got 4 rebounds and 2 blocks!
Mourning was completely defeated in the matchup with Longley. He made 4 of 0 shots and failed to score 1 point. He only scored 2 points and 1 block. If you only look at the performance of these two people in the first half of the first quarter, Obviously Longley is more like the fifth center in the league, and Mourning is just an ordinary blue-collar player!

Mourning, who was still hungover, became the most miserable and embarrassing player on the Heat team!
And if Riley hadn't been unable to stand it anymore and replaced Mourning when he only played 8 minutes in the first quarter, he would have been even worse!
Among the rest of the Heat, the best performer is of course Hardaway. Although he cannot guard Lin Tian at all, he can also give some responses on the offensive end, such as breakthroughs, 3-pointers, throws, layups...

Although Hardaway's performance was not as perfect and amazing as Lin Tian's, he also scored 9 points and 2 assists in the first quarter!

In addition, Mashburn also hit a three-pointer and hit Kukoc several times in the back, scoring 1 points. Leonard hit 7 2-pointers and a mid-range shot, scoring 3 points!
Coupled with the good performance of Marley, Austin and others who came off the bench, the Heat scored a high score of 34 points in the first quarter!This is completely different from their previous slow-paced, low-scoring style, but at least they are not far behind!

Yes, even if they scored 34 points, they were still lagging behind!
Under the leadership of Lin Tian, ​​who played for twelve minutes in the first quarter, the Bulls were firing with thousands of arrows and galloping horses!Every player on the team can contribute, and everyone has found their position!
In addition to Longley, who beat Mourning and scored 8 points and 4 rebounds, Kukoc also scored 6 points, Cole 5 points, and although Williams only had 4 points, he contributed two powerful and violent dunks. Hubble, who debuted, also scored 4 points!
The biggest contributor and absolute core of the team is undoubtedly Lin Tian!
首节比赛，林天7投5中，3分球2投2中，罚球2罚2中，拿下14分8助攻3篮板2次抢断的漂亮数据！

In this quarter, the Bulls team, except Lin Tian, ​​hit a total of 11 goals, 8 of which came from Lin Tian's passes!

This shows how powerful his passing is and how strong his ability is in finding space and opportunities!
Under the leadership of Lin Tian, ​​the Bulls scored 41 points in the first quarter!It was the most entertaining and passionate single quarter in the entire series!

In the absence of Jordan and Pippen, and the absence of Rodman in the first quarter, the Bulls actually led the Heat with a score of 41:34, which was on the verge of a cliff and striving for a victory!
Not only the fans at AmericanAirlines Arena, but also the fans in Chicago who were watching TV, couldn't believe the facts in front of them.

Is our team so strong?

So strong that even without Jordan and Pippen, he could lead the Heat by 7 points in a single quarter?
He is so strong that he has no friends!
In the second quarter of the game, Jackson ignored Lin Tian's request to continue playing and asked him to take a good rest on the bench.

After all, although Lin Tian didn't breathe much and looked like nothing was wrong, Jackson knew how much he consumed in the first quarter. He had to observe his teammates, attack on his own, and defend the Heat's best performer. Hardaway.

Lin Tian is the Bulls' only strong point tonight. Jackson doesn't want Lin Tian to be out of energy in the second half of the game. He must use Lin Tian's energy sparingly!
But here Jackson feels sorry for Lin Tian, ​​but over there Riley doesn't feel sorry for Hardaway. The Heat's most reliable player continues to appear on the stage, leading a group of role players to continue to attack!
When the Bulls were without Lin Tian, ​​without Jordan and Pippen, without Rodman or even Longley on the court, Hardaway immediately broke out with the strength that he should have as a first-tier player in the league!

3-pointers, mid-range shots, and a strong drive to the basket to score 2+1!

Facing Hubble, Hardaway almost got everything he asked for!
During the period when Hardaway broke out for the Bulls, only Wennington picked up the rebound and hit a tip-in.

In less than 2 minutes, the Heat, led by Hardaway who scored 8 points in a row, launched an 8:2 offensive climax, narrowing the point difference to 1 point!
Helpless, Jackson could only call a timeout.

Although Hubble only played for 5 minutes in the first quarter, he was already out of breath and exhausted. This All-Star guard who once competed with Jordan in the Cavaliers is indeed old. !

He is so old that he cannot stand up to Hardaway at all, and even loses the ability to stalemate with Hardaway within 2-3 minutes.

Jackson looked at Hardaway, who was breathing heavily, and then at Lin Tian, ​​who was sitting there, looking firmly at him, and made his choice easily.

"Lin, come on! Can your physical strength be enough to withstand it?"

"After I die, I will have plenty of time to rest." Lin Tian stood up and said: "Tonight, I don't need to rest anymore, coach, I can keep playing!"

After Jackson patted Lin Tian's back to express encouragement, his eyes finally saw Rodman sitting at the end of the bench.

"Dennis, do you realize your mistake?" Jackson called out Rodman's name for the first time in this game.

"I know, I won't continue to be late to a game of this level as coach." Rodman also stood up, but there was obviously no repentance in his eyes.

A competition of this level?Does the finals count as this level?Does the regular season count as this level?
Rodman's appearance clearly didn't take the fact that he was late to heart. If the lazy and self-accustomed "big bug" hadn't been so self-absorbed and had no regard for team discipline, he wouldn't have been rejected by the Spurs. Like the god of plague, he hurriedly rushed out.

He is such a strange guy. If you don't let him play, he won't cause trouble or make trouble, as if he doesn't care about it. But if you let him play, he will immediately play beautiful defense and look like a desperate man. look.

Desperate and casual, indifferent and burning everything.

These completely opposite personalities can appear in Rodman at the same time!
Fortunately, Jackson is not an old stubborn man who insists on asking for an apology. He knows that he needs to treat different people in different ways, so Jackson is too lazy to care about the laziness and poor language in Rodman's words, and is too lazy to argue with him about the details. .

Instead, he nodded as if he didn't hear it at all and said: "Now that you realize your mistake, let's go on the court! Get all those damn rebounds for me! I don't want the Heat to get even one offensive rebound. ,understand?"

"Leave it to me, it's just a soft-legged shrimp Mourning and a soft-legged Brown. I guarantee that the two guys I robbed don't know each other!"

Rodman stretched, looking eager to try.

Then, Jackson continued: "Luke, Steve, Tony, the three of you continue to appear and play at the same pace as the first quarter! Our current manpower cannot completely prevent the Heat's offense, so you only need to Just work hard! Don’t be frustrated if you get scored on, just try your best to fight back on the offensive end!”

"Remember, we only have one rule tonight! Just shoot when you have the chance! If Lin passes the ball to you, you shoot! If it's open, you shoot! Don't worry about whether there is anyone under the basket rebounding or whether the opponent is stuck. Position, vote, that's it! I believe you can get a victory! Go for it!"

With Jackson's encouragement, the Bulls team once again walked onto the court side by side.

Lin Tian looked at Hardaway, who was still on the court, and said with a smile:
"You played great just now! A 3-pointer, a mid-range shot, and a 2+1, right?"

"What's wrong, boy, do you want to learn? I'll teach you!" Hardaway lowered his center of gravity and looked at Lin Tian with all his attention to prevent him from making a sudden move or launching an attack.

"Learn?" Lin Tian smiled, and then suddenly took a shot 3 meters away from the 2-point line!

A super long 30-pointer of almost 3 feet was thrown out by Lin Tian without any reason!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the basketball accurately got into the basket, and the Bulls began to expand their advantage again!
"What's there to learn? Do you know this super long shot? I can teach you!" Lin Tian shrugged, indicating that your three-point shot was too close.

Hardaway had a gloomy face and didn't say much. He had already figured it out by now. He couldn't guard Lin Tian on his own when Mourning was hungover.

Since you can’t guard against it, then don’t guard against it!Anyway, Riley also said that he will be the first core player in tonight's game!

Then let’s blast each other!

Let’s see who is the better running and attacking one!
Hardaway quickly came to the frontcourt with the ball. However, although he wanted to attack, he did not directly go up and make a mistake. Instead, after pushing Lin Tian to the outside of the penalty area, he suddenly distributed the ball to Austin who was following up. Austin took the ball. The ball is pulled up and dunked immediately, and the strong physical fitness is fully displayed in this ball!

"boom!"

After a loud noise, Longley was dunked on the head. "Lin, I am the most improved player! I deserve everything! I deserve this reward!" After scoring the goal, this complete second-hand player roared at Lin Tian, ​​venting his frustration.

Austin knows very well that his Most Improved Player award is probably the biggest achievement in his career, but now countless people say that this award should belong to Lin Tian.

Even if there are differences in positions and abilities, Austin won't care about that. The prize belongs to me!
"puff!"

Then a muffled sound suddenly came over. Rodman, who was passing by, accidentally gave Austin an elbow, hitting the guy in the stomach. After the slap, Rodman looked like nothing was wrong and continued toward the frontcourt. Running: "That's so damn verbose!"

"Beep beep!" The referee's whistle immediately sounded, blocking Rodman's ability to continue running. A technical foul was directly awarded to Rodman!
Rodman shrugged his shoulders indifferently, stretched out his arm to tell the referee that he had committed a foul, then he turned back and stared at Austin fiercely and said: "What are you looking at! Haven't you ever been beaten? If you want to be beaten, I'll do it." I can go to your nose once!”

"I guarantee that your tall nose will be parallel to your mouth for the rest of your life!"

"You will make the kids cry, Dennis." Lin Tian patted Rodman on the back, then looked at Austin and said, "If it were me, I think it would be better to hit him in the eyes! I hate blue. His eyeballs, I want to try to see if I can knock his eyeballs out with an elbow!"

"Don't talk nonsense! You can't scare me! I'm not scared at all!" Austin said harsh words while calmly moving a step in the direction of PJ Brown, as if he could only stand next to this evil man. Same as being protected.

"Try it, let's see who is crying later?" Lin Tian looked like a villain. At this moment, he was paired with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and he was a proper scumbag!
Well, the jersey, sneakers and gold-rimmed glasses may not seem very polite, but they are definitely scum!
Hardaway set an example as a leader at this time, stepped forward and stood in front of Austin and said: "Lin, Dennis, you'd better not cause trouble! This is Miami!"

"When I beat someone, why does it depend on the time and place?" Rodman clasped his ears and glanced at Hardaway from the corner of his eye. "But don't worry, I won't fight with dwarfs. If I want to fight, I will fight with Mourning."

"You guys! If we don't separate, we will give you a technical foul!" The referee came over in time and separated the two groups.

This night, there are no Jordan and Pippen anymore. It seems that Mourning will not play for long. What if Rodman, Lin Tian and Hardaway are fined again?

Fans are not here to see Mashburn vs. Kukoc!
The referee must control the anger of both parties in time!
Hardaway went to the free throw line and easily hit the technical free throw, and then the Heat had a chance from the sideline.

On the Bulls side, no one complained because of Rodman's irrational technical foul. On the contrary, because of this wave of conflicts, the guys on the court were even more angry!
Today we will kill these Miami people who bully others and think they are right!

Do you really think that if Jordan is not here, we will be easy to bully?

Daydreaming!

Well, the Bulls players were so unanimous that they completely forgot that it was Rodman who initiated the fight and that the conflict was entirely their fault...

It’s all because of the bad people in Miami!If you saw Rodman passing by, wouldn't you run away?Do you have to push Rodman’s elbow with your belly?

Dirty Miami!

The Bulls players share the same hatred, and there are not many good-tempered owners on the Heat team. Their little brother suffered a loss, and some of the bad-tempered members of their team are also gathering their energy, ready to wait for an opportunity to retaliate!
Therefore, in the rest of the second quarter, although the rhythm of both sides was still very fast, there were gradually more confrontations and small moves!

First, when Rodman was about to grab an offensive rebound, Brown raised his butt and nudged him. He almost turned over in the air. Then, before Rodman could make a move, Longley directly elbowed Brown in the face. This bad guy knocked him over.

It is worth mentioning that as Brown fell to the ground, bursts of cheers came from New York City!

Very happy!
The referee quickly intervened and gave Longley and Brown a technical foul!
Then when Hardaway rushed inside for a layup, this time it was the turn of Williams, who came on the bench, to show his strength and hit Hardaway straight in the face!
However, it was just a common foul!
After Hardaway suffered a big loss, when Cole next shot an open mid-range shot, this guy suddenly rushed over and knocked Cole directly to the ground!
Then within two rounds, Lin Tian and Mashburn were entangled again under the basket!When Lin Tian was playing behind the back, his two arms were completely entangled with Mashburn. Then the two people struggled with each other and fell to the ground together. Their limbs, arms and legs were completely entangled, and no one could tell the difference. Who gets the advantage and who suffers the loss.

The only two people who knew the truth were Lin Tian, ​​who took advantage of the inertia to give Mashburn a knee before he fell, and Mashburn, who rubbed his belly and almost vomited out his overnight meal.

No one else could see clearly what happened between the two at that moment.

This time the conflict was a foul on both sides!The referee still did not give a flagrant or technical foul.

As the referee almost encouraged this level of confrontation, the offensive rhythm and success rate of both sides decreased visibly. However, at the same time, the physical contact between the two sides began to increase significantly, especially in the low post and the 3-second zone. When grabbing rebounds and seizing advantageous positions, two or three people would often fall together. No matter who the person fell on the floor, their first goal was not to get up or find the basketball.

Instead, find your opponent first and find a way to take advantage!
Throughout the second quarter of the game, both sides became more and more angry and fierce!The smooth offense in the first quarter and the offense-first strategy deployed by the coaches of both sides disappeared and were forgotten by the players.

The game completely turned into a mud battle and hand-to-hand combat!

By the end of the second quarter, the score between the two sides was 50:57!

In this quarter of the game, the two sides only scored 32 points combined!It's not as good as the score the Heat scored in the first quarter!
The completely different styles of the first quarter and the second quarter made all the fans excited!

One ticket, two games, completely different styles, from crazy fights to meat grinder-like life and death showdowns, what could be more exciting and enjoyable than this?
当上半场比赛结束的时候，林天已经轰下了20分10次助攻5篮板3抢断的全面数据，半场比赛就完成20+10+5这种别的球员一场比赛才能打出的数据，林天对球队的供献不言而喻！

In addition to Lin Tian, ​​the Bulls also scored in double figures with Luke Longley, who also scored 13 points and 7 rebounds. The rest of the players failed to score in double figures in the first half. Kukoc, who was close, only scored 8 points!
For the Heat, the most outstanding performer is undoubtedly Tim Hardaway. With Mourning not playing in the entire second quarter, Hardaway scored 19 points and 4 assists in the half. The 2 consecutive points in the first 8 minutes of the second quarter allowed the Heat to regain the score directly from the edge of being pulled away!
Unfortunately, apart from these 8 points, Hardaway's performance at other times in the second quarter was somewhat lackluster. Too much physical confrontation caused him to lose the touch that he relies on for survival.

In addition to Hardaway, the Heat also had Leonard who scored 10 points and Mashburn who scored 12 points. With these three people scoring in double figures in the half, the Heat finally managed to survive with Mourning almost absent. , killing the score.

During halftime, as soon as Rodman entered the Bulls locker room, he kicked over the table in front of him and cursed angrily: "FUXX! That damn nigger Brown! I will kill him in the second half! He How dare you touch my back! Is he gay? How disgusting!"

"I'm going to shit in his mouth in the second half of the game!"

Longley followed him into the dressing room, and with the same kick, he broke one of the four legs of the poor table!
"FUXX! That short guy Hardaway actually wanted to pad me! Did you see it? In the last possession of the second quarter, when I was grabbing a rebound, his feet actually dared to reach under my feet! He had better not break through in the second half. Otherwise, I will send him to meet my grandmother who has been dead for 5 years!"

"FUXX!" The third Cole who walked into the room also slapped the other leg of the table off and cursed angrily: "Mashburn! What a monster Mashburn, it's basically a bedbug Mashburn! He deserves it. Being greened by a teammate! What a joy! He deserves to be abandoned by the Mavericks! He is trash!"

"FUXX!" Lin Tian, ​​who was the fourth to walk into the locker room, punched with both hands, breaking the remaining two legs of the table, and then said: "I'm not unhappy at all, I just watched. If you each cut off one of them, if I don’t do something, I’ll feel very out of place!”

"Okay! Sit down and go back to your seats." Jackson walked into the locker room and ignored the poor and unfortunate table on the floor. Instead, he looked at everyone and said, "First of all, in the first half of the game, I Proud of you! The spirit you have shown makes me proud! You are truly the best team I have ever coached!"

After receiving cheers from the players, Jackson stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then changed the subject.

"But, I have to say, you guys let me down again! Where are the tactics I made before the game? Where are my instructions that I have to play fast, attack more and shoot more? You have all forgotten! You put all your energy into Useless grudges and entangled links!"

"I have to say, if we continue to play like this, even if we are leading by 7 points now, we will definitely lose the second half of the game! Because this is not our rhythm, this is the Heat's rhythm! This is the style they like! This is Their way of survival!”

"We have fallen into the Heat's rhythm!" Jackson said this, slapping himself vigorously and saying: "In the second half of the game, run! Stop being obsessed with confrontation! Use our speed, shooting and impact to go Defeat them and win this game!"

"I know what you are going to say. You are not willing to accept it. You think this is a sign of weakness. You think this gives the Heat an advantage! But what I want to say is that only by doing this can you truly So brave!"

"Don't be obsessed with the gains and losses of one round and one action. What we want is to win this game and this series! Do you still remember what I said to you before the game started? Let everyone know that we The best team on the planet! Even without Michael and Scott, we are still strong!"

In the Heat's locker room, Mourning was still half-lying in his position. After leaving the game in the first quarter, he came to the locker room to rest early and did not appear on the bench throughout the second quarter. It’s about trying to regain some form as much as possible in the locker room.

"Alonzo, how are you?" Riley looked at Mourning and asked with some concern.

"It's pretty bad. I feel like I have no strength in my limbs and my stomach is turning inside out." Mourning shook his head, then nodded: "But I will play in the second half! I feel much better than in the first quarter. I may not be able to return to 100% of my state, but I won’t be beaten to death by Langley again! I will take revenge!”

"We all depend on you!" Riley patted Mourning's shoulder solemnly, and then found the team's physical therapist and asked them to help Mourning regain his condition as much as possible.

The Bulls' tenacity and strength tonight completely exceeded Riley's expectations. He never expected that without Jordan and Pippen, this team could actually compete with the players he was proud of. It’s hard to tell the difference between the teams!
No, it was to suppress the Heat!

In the first half, the Bulls' biggest support, or even their only support, was, needless to say, Lin Tian!

Whether this guy is attacking or defending, shooting or breaking through, passing or attacking on his own, he has shown the style that a perfect point guard should have!

Even if Riley was asked to rank the league's top point guards now, he would definitely give the number one spot to Lin Tian without hesitation!
His performance in the first half was really amazing!

Even though he has become the team's only strong point and is being heavily guarded and targeted by the Heat, this guy is still calm and composed. Not only did he score 20+10 in the first half, but he also only made one turnover!With this kind of intensity and pertinence, this assist-to-turnover ratio is definitely the best among the best!
I just don’t know, in the second half of the game, can Lin Tian be able to maintain his performance in the first half?

At the same time, Riley's desire to get Lin Tian became even more urgent!

Even if the team is dismantled, even if the team is rebuilt again, we must get this 23-year-old young man!
This guy will definitely become the strongest point guard in the entire league in the next 10 or even 15 years!
Soon, the halftime break ended and the players from both sides took to the court again.

On the Heat's side, Mourning, who didn't play the entire second quarter and didn't even appear on the bench, returned to play!

He once again appeared in the team's starting lineup, and fans throughout the American Airlines Center breathed a sigh of relief.

Mourning is back!They have the confidence in their hearts!

With Mourning here, the Heat's confidence is there!The confidence of Heat fans is there!

The Bulls changed their starting lineup. Williams, who performed well in the first half and felt a bit like a surprise player, sat on the bench again. Rhodes, who only played one quarter and scored 1 points and 2 rebounds. Mann replaced him and started in the second half!
It can be said that both sides showed their strongest five-man combination at the beginning of the third quarter!

Both coaches know that this is not the time to play tricks. They must go all out to seize every minute and make every minute a decisive battle. Only then can they win this game, which is crucial for both sides. the match of!

The first wave of possession in the second half belonged to the Heat. After Hardaway dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt, he immediately chose to give the ball to Mourning, who was stuck in the low post.

"Come on! You weakling!" Langley, whose confidence was skyrocketing, shouted excitedly at Mourning: "You are a coward who was so scared by me that you didn't even dare to show up in the arena in the second quarter! Come on! I will be like him in the second quarter. I beat you like that in one game!"

"I've been beaten many times!" Mourning said as he started dribbling and hitting with his back, heading into the 3-second zone: "O'Neal, Olajuwon, and even Barkley, they all beat me. Pass me!"

"Boom! Boom!"

After two muffled sounds, Mourning had already arrived in the three-second zone. Then he turned around and passed Langley to the other side of the basket. Then he jumped directly, dunked with both hands behind his back, and smashed the basketball into the basket. !

"But you, far from it! Do you want to beat me up? In the next life!"

After scoring, Mourning raised his arms on both sides of his head, roared and showed off his biceps to the audience!
I, Mourning, am back!
Although it is not at full health, it is enough to deal with one Langley!
Ok……

Actually not enough!

Because in the next round, Lin Tian went directly to the high post to find Langley's cover, and then the two quickly separated. Taking advantage of the Heat's defensive focus on himself, Lin Tian suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball, and the basketball came In Longley's hands!

Langley, whose confidence was soaring, was not afraid of Mourning's fierce defense at all and rushed towards Mourning!
"Oh!"

After a muffled sound, Langley and Mourning collided. Then Langley quickly turned around and made a smooth side hook, against Mourning, and the score was 2 points!
"What a coward! Come on! Let me see what else you can do!" After scoring the goal, Langley was equally arrogant, showing off and shouting at Mourning.

The first half of the game had completely knocked back his long-lost self-confidence!
