NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 161 Don’t worry, it will be the time for you to get jealous in a few years!
Faced with Longley's provocation, how could Mourning endure such a violent temper?

In the next round, he got stuck in the low post for the second time in a row and asked for the ball for a single!

But this time, when Hardaway's pass came to Mourning, the Bulls' defense immediately arrived. Rodman rushed over immediately and double-teamed Mourning with Longley!
Mourning's shortcomings in passing and breaking double-teams were immediately apparent!Coupled with the fact that his state and reaction were not at their peak after being hungover, Rodman actually spotted the opportunity and cut the ball straight away!

"Dennis, calm down!" Lin Tian, ​​who was outside the 3-point line, saw Rodman's posture after stealing the ball and knew he was about to suffer!While shouting, he started to speed towards the front court!

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Tian's legs started running wildly, Rodman's signature unreliable pass flew towards the frontcourt!

"Steve!" After Lin Tian roared, he used all his strength, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and rushed towards the frontcourt. He finally managed to hook the basketball just before it went out of bounds, but his body was no longer there. Under control, it was too late to brake.

Fortunately, Cole received Lin Tian's signal, was only a few positions slower than Lin Tian, ​​and arrived in the frontcourt in time.

After Lin Tian jumped up and completely controlled the ball, he threw the ball behind him from his crotch, and it was given to Cole's hands. After Cole took the ball, he took three steps and succeeded in a layup!

"Nice pass Lin!" After Cole scored, he reached out and gave Lin Tian a high-five as he ran back from outside the boundary.

"You guys who are riding horses, can you please help me beg Dennis to stop doing this? My lungs are about to explode." Lin Tian looked at Cole helplessly, and Cole looked at him helplessly.

Everyone on earth knows that when Rodman wants to do something, no one can stop him!

"FUXX! Dennis, you stupid bastard, do you have the guts to challenge me one on one! If you have the guts, let's play in the low post!" Mourning's ball just now was intercepted cleanly, and now he is also Anxiety got to his head and he started spraying at Rodman.

"Idiot! Stupid bird! Stupid!" After Rodman cursed at Mourning, he smiled and said: "When have I ever challenged someone to a duel? I like to sneak up on you from behind! If you have the ability, 豼Learn from Olajuwon’s footsteps and ability to break double teams!”

"Tim, ball!" Faced with Rodman's careless bastard, Mourning's temper was instantly ignited, and he was about to post up again for a single.

"Alonzo! Remember our purpose today!" Off the court, Riley saw that Mourning was not in the best condition today. If he continued to play endless singles like this, it would affect the entire team's offense. He immediately stood up Stand up and roar onto the field.

Mourning glanced at Riley, then turned back and glared at Rodman: "You are dead! Tonight, you are dead!"

"You want to take revenge now! You are a weakling who only listens to the instructions of the old white man. Has the slave blood in your bones awakened? You like to be ordered around so much. Does this give you extra pleasure? Huh?"

Rodman's trash talk made Mourning so angry that he almost turned around and punched him. Unfortunately, his desire for victory made Mourning give up this very tempting idea and instead ran towards the top of the key. , went to cover Hardaway.

As soon as Mourning came out of the paint, Mashburn immediately rushed into the paint, and Hardaway's pass arrived in the blink of an eye!
At this time, the Bulls' inside line was because Longley was defending Mourning. Only Rodman, an inside player who was not good at protecting the rim, was under the basket. Seeing Mashburn pull up, he violently abused the basket with both hands. Rodman But he didn't reach out to interfere. Instead, after watching Mashburn score, he quickly took the basketball and came to the bottom line.

"Dennis, calm down! I'm here! I'm here!" When Lin Tian saw Rodman taking the ball, he didn't dare to hesitate at all. He quickly rushed to the basket and reached out to Rodman for the ball.

"Lin, run! Didn't the coach tell us to play fast? How can you play fast when you catch the ball here?" Rodman reluctantly gave the ball to Lin Tian in front of him.

Hey, another missed opportunity to show off my passing skills, what a pity!What a pity!
Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief. If he really let this big brother pass the ball, even if he had 8 lungs, he wouldn't be able to run!
After dribbling the ball to the frontcourt again, he still cooperated with Longley in the pick-and-roll. After the two separated, Lin Tian held the ball and rushed inside while observing the positions of his teammates and opponents on the court. When Mashburn finally When Kukoc was released to shrink the defense, Lin Tian's pass flew to Kukoc's hands.

"Shh!"

The knife fell from his hand and he hit another 3-pointer!

Although Leonard found an opportunity in the mid-range and hit a jumper, Lin Tian still didn't give the Heat any chance to celebrate or relax. He was already holding the basketball and sprinting towards the frontcourt again. , As long as he can play fast, Lin Tian will never let the pace of the game slow down!

During the transition between offense and defense, Lin Tian called for a pick-and-roll again. This time it was Kukoc's turn to step forward and cooperate with him. After the two separated, Kukoc did not run towards the low post like Longley, but towards the 3 on the weak side. Popping up from outside the point line, this sudden change of rhythm immediately caused a loophole in the Heat's defense line again!
Both Hardaway and Mashburn instinctively rushed towards Kukoc, but Lin Tian was completely missed!

So Lin Tian accelerated directly, heading towards Mourning, who was unintimidating on the defensive end tonight, and scored 2 points again despite the defense!
"pause!"

Off the court, Riley couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and applied for a timeout.

We can't let the Bulls, or Lin Tian, ​​continue to fight like this!

Riley knew he had to make a decision.

Lin Tian's condition tonight is really good. No matter what kind of defense he faces, he is able to handle it with ease. He really shows the style of a top point guard!The Heat's defense was completely penetrated by Lin Tian's continuous shooting and passing!

We can no longer let the players decide how to defend in such a unclear manner!
Riley must now make the players' defense clear!

Or continue to stick to Lin Tian and increase his intensity. Whether he is in a pick-and-roll or a one-on-one, he will not be able to take action easily.

Either don't double-team Lin Tian, ​​and retreat during the pick-and-roll, locking the other Bulls players so they can't take open shots, letting Lin Tian attack alone, betting that Lin Tian can't beat the Heat alone!

Riley hugged his shoulders and looked solemn, thinking quickly about which bottle of poison he should choose to drink.

Shorting the rest of the Bulls?But now at the beginning of the second half, Lin Tian is about to send out 15 assists!If you let it go again, do you really want Lin Tian to get 30 assists in a single game?

Short Lin Tian?Last year's Knicks, SuperSonics, and this year's Bullets and Hornets all thought of doing this, but the final result was that they were completely defeated and were beaten by Lin Tian without any power to fight back!

In the end how to do.

Riley looked at his players, then at the opposite Bulls bench, and finally saw Jackson, and Riley felt a wave of discomfort in his heart.

Why is this old man so lucky?Why did he get Michael Jordan in his first year as head coach, and then get Scottie Pippen?Can you even get a genius like Lin Tian at the end of the second round?
If Jordan or Lin Tian were given to the Heat, Riley was confident that the Bulls would be unable to fight back!

But it just so happens that the Bulls have two stars of this level, while the Heat only have Mourning who can be considered half of them. They are still hungover at the moment.

If Lin Tian knew what Riley was thinking now, he would definitely pat Riley on the shoulder and tell him kindly: "Don't be disappointed, don't be jealous, and don't be angry, because it's not time for you to be angry yet, let alone you now If you are angry, what will you do in three years? When Jackson has both O'Neal and Kobe on his team in three years, what will you do?"

"Don't be so angry that you get sick! Even in another 10 years, Jackson will be able to rob Gasol and start a small dynasty for two consecutive years. You 'magic fortune teller' must be so angry."

After thinking silently for almost a minute, seeing that the timeout was about to end, Riley finally made up his mind.

"Tim, Jamal, Alonzo, and everyone else, listen, our defensive tactics must be more determined and more direct next! Double-team Lin! Whether he is one-on-one or using pick-and-rolls, don't let He takes shots easily, don't let him have space to shoot, don't let him rush to the basket wantonly!"

"Set up layers of defensive traps for him to make every shot he takes more difficult! At the same time, give him physical confrontation. It is best to make his ball play affected, so that he can no longer pass the ball easily and comfortably! As for the rest of the Bulls, just try your best! I don’t believe they can be accurate throughout the game!”

Riley finally learned from the lessons learned by teams such as the SuperSonics and Knicks last year, and decided to find a way to strangle Lin Tian from the source, preventing the Bulls' only offensive starting point from playing comfortably, and increasing the difficulty of Lin Tian's game. .

As for the others...

He could only pray!

Pray they miss.

When he let his players onto the court, Riley suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Tonight's Bulls don't have Jordan and Pippen!
If these two people are here, let’s not talk about whether the Heat can guard these guys. Let’s just say that the Bulls suddenly have two of the best perimeter defense points in the league, Mashburn and Hardaway, and they can still play like they did tonight. In good condition?

Without these two people, the Bulls would have to fight the Heat back and forth. If they came back, the Heat wouldn't have to fight at all!

Riley was convinced for the first time that the two disastrous defeats in Chicago were not because of the Bulls' home court advantage, but because the Heat really couldn't beat the Bulls!

There is a huge difference in strength between the two sides!
Then Riley and Cowens struck a wonderful chord.

Break them up!

This team must be broken up, otherwise, all the teams in the league will have no chance to play!
You have to think of a solution...

While Riley's mind was going through a crazy level [-] storm, Jackson's attitude was much simpler.

"Next, the old fox will definitely strengthen the team's defensive tactics. They actually have two choices: let go of Lin or let go of others! No matter how they choose, Lin, you know how to play! According to their defense, Just switch your attack mode at any time, and others will follow Lin's tactics. Okay, do you still have any questions?"

"Yes!" Lin Tian raised his hand.

Then Jackson ignored Lin Tian directly: "If there is no problem, let's all play!"

Lin Tian has a problem?With such a simple tactic and such a great degree of freedom, what could possibly go wrong with this little bastard?If he can let out a good fart from his mouth, my name, Jackson, will be written backwards from now on!His name is Alfie Sonkerje!
Lin Tian, ​​who was ignored by Jackson, could only walk onto the court in disappointment. He just wanted to ask Jackson, obviously you are more like a fox than Riley, whether you two are just born from the same fox ancestor.

This old bastard actually ignored me, how disgusting!
At this point, the game continues.

Neither side has changed their starting lineup. Now, it's not time to make adjustments yet!

The Heat's first offense was given to Mashburn, who used his strength and body to bully Kukoc in the low post. This is also Mashburn's signature offensive method, especially when Mourning is in poor condition. The Heat even freed up the entire inside line for Mashburn to use offensively!

When Mashburn faced off against Kukoc, it was basically a matter of fighting how he wanted. Under the overwhelming force, Kukoc was really powerless to fight back, and Mashburn scored another goal!
But Kukoc also knew his shortcomings. At the same time, he knew his advantages better. After being scored, he quickly turned around to pick up the ball, and then came to the bottom line. Mashburn's side had not yet stood firm. Kukoc's baseline ball It has already been sent!

Lin Tian dribbled the ball forward quickly, and Lin-style running and gunning appeared on the court again!
But this time, just after halftime, Lin Tian discovered that not only Hardaway was blocking him, but also behind Hardaway, Leonard was staring at him eagerly, and Mourning was running quickly to prepare to return to defense. And Brown also looked fierce!

Jackson's guess was correct. The Heat had indeed changed their defense and targeted Lin Tian with all their strength!

Faced with this layer of dense defense, Lin Tian was not afraid at all. After a little observation, he immediately started to speed up and rushed towards the inside!
The Heat's defense immediately shrank, and a few people who had been standing loosely blocked Lin Tian near the free throw line for the first time.

Lin Tian was not afraid of being flanked by three players. He suddenly pushed the ball forward with one hand, and the basketball immediately passed through Mashburn's crotch and flew behind him.

The one who caught the ball was Kukoc who followed up. After taking the ball, he did not rush to the basket. Instead, he suddenly stopped and pulled up for a mid-range shot!

"Boom!"

There was a crisp sound, the basketball missed, the rebound was protected by Brown, and the Heat began to counterattack!
"Tony! It's okay! Don't be afraid! If you think you should shoot, shoot. If you want to hit the basket, hit!" Lin Tian did not blame Kukoc, but patted him on the shoulder and said: "I believe in your choice. , the important thing is decisiveness, not the result! Basketball is a game of probability, there is no absolutely right choice, only the result of making or not making!"

After encouraging Kukoc, Lin Tian then clapped his hands vigorously and shouted: "Don't worry! We will defend this goal! The current lead is still with us!"

"The perfect leader!" Riley looked at Lin Tian with drool on the corner of his mouth.

Why is such a good player in the Bulls?

Compared to Hardaway, who doesn't like to talk much and is easy to get angry during the game, Riley wants to get Lin Tian more and more!
This is his ideal point guard!

Even more in line with Riley's ideal type than the magician!
It was as if the disgust in Riley's heart was felt by Hardaway. This guy moved to the frontcourt and set a one-block screen. He pulled up and threw the super long 3-pointer. The result was naturally bad luck. The basketball bounced out of the frame and was blocked. Kukoc hugged him.

Then Kukoc hit the ground and passed the ball, and the basketball once again passed through the Heat's three-person defense and went directly to Lin Tian's hands near the midline.

After running all the way, Lin Tian faced the double team of Hardaway and Leonard, and once again chose Cole to follow up behind the ball. Unfortunately, Cole's finishing ability was not very good. This time, he made a fast break layup. He actually failed to make progress!

Then Hardaway grabbed the rebound and came to the frontcourt again. He screened again with a single block, and then pulled up and threw it!
This time, his luck obviously came. With a crisp sound, the 3-pointer hit the net!

The Bulls also didn't give Hardaway any chance to be proud. They didn't give him any time to celebrate and show off, and the baseline ball was quickly sent out again!
The Heat players, who had been frightened for a long time, quickly turned around and retreated, but they still had no time to set up their defensive formation in front of Lin Tian, ​​who was pushing forward with all his strength. Lin Tian lowered his head and ran all the way into the core of the Heat.

Then, when the Heat's defensive focus was all on him, the basketball suddenly flew out from the basket and landed in Longley's hands near the free throw line. After taking the ball, Longley took a step inward and pulled it up. A small toss shot.

"Shh!"

Tonight, Langley has indeed regained the demeanor of the 'Australian Giant' and 'Australian Dream' in his youth!In the entire third quarter of the game, the two sides completely fought against each other!
The rhythm is extremely fast, there are a lot of shots, and the scoring points of both sides are also very scattered!

The Heat have Hardaway as the absolute core, with Leonard and Mashburn as their two strikers. From 3-pointers and mid-range to breakthroughs and post-ups, their offensive routines are actually quite rich.

Except for Mourning, who is still not in a good state. He tried many shots in this quarter but only hit one, which is really disappointing. The other players all played at a very high level!
Hardaway once again scored 10 points and 2 assists in this quarter. At the end of the three quarters, he had already scored 29 points and 6 assists!Although he took a lot of three-pointers, 3 in 9 quarters, he also hit 4, which is considered a good shooting percentage!

In addition to Hardaway, Mashburn has scored 18 points and Leonard has 16 points. The team's three top starters have all played high-level offense!The only one who was lagging behind was Mourning. After the third quarter, he still only had 6 points, 6 rebounds and 1 block. He didn't look like the league's top center at all.

On the contrary, Longley, who faced Mourning, continued to play a high-level game in the third quarter. At the end of the third quarter, he had already scored 3 points and 20 rebounds!This has already broken his career playoff scoring record!This is the first time in Langley's career that he has scored 10+20 in a single game!

The two data of 20 points and 10 rebounds simultaneously created a new high in his playoff career!
Tonight is definitely a perfect career night for Longley, especially when his opponent is top center Mourning, which makes his data even more convincing and valuable!
In addition to Longley's 20+10, Kukoc has also scored 17 points and 5 rebounds. He is the team's third leading scorer tonight, as well as Steve Kerr, who replaced Jordan tonight. Of course he can't match Jordan's dominance, but he also made 3 shots from beyond the 3-point line, 4 of 4 from 3-point range, and 3 of 1 from inside the 14-point line, and he has already scored [-] points!
In addition, although Rodman didn't score much, he played almost the entire second and third quarters and grabbed 11 rebounds. The Bulls are still in full bloom tonight!

当然了，他们最大的功臣，还是林天！这一节虽然林天只拿到了5分，但送出了6个助攻！他本场比赛已经拿下了25分16次助攻7篮板4抢断的漂亮数据！
Next, there is still a whole quarter of competition!Many people have begun to look forward to what kind of data Lin Tian can get tonight!

At least based on the perspective and quality of the game in the past three quarters, it shouldn't be a problem for Lin Tian to get a 30+20+10+5 tonight!

With both sides having such ferocious firepower in the third quarter, the score of both sides was naturally completely different from the inertia in the second quarter. Both sides played an amazing offensive level, and both scored in the third quarter. 30 points or more!
At the end of this quarter, the score between the two sides became 87:83!

The Heat, in this quarter, narrowed the point difference to 4 points!
"Marcus, how do you think the game will go in the fourth quarter? The rhythm of both sides tonight is so surprising and so unprepared! The first quarter is an attack, the second quarter is a confrontation, and the third quarter is a confrontation. The quarter begins again with a crazy fast break. So what will be the rhythm of the fourth quarter?"

During the break between sessions, Smith interacted with his partner again.

"To be honest, I really can't guess. The adaptability of these two teams is too strong. They can adapt to different styles of games. How to play seems to depend on what the players of the two teams want to do. Fight! But whether it’s fast or slow, what this round of matches has shown us is indeed the true strength of the two top teams!”

"Especially the Bulls! I originally thought that without Jordan and Pippen, the Bulls would collapse tonight and have all kinds of problems. But I didn't expect that they could adapt to the crisis without their core and play an unparalleled game. Performance!"

"Whether they lose or win this game, the mentality of the Bulls will be hugely different! For them, when Jordan and Pippen are not here, they can still compete with the top team, the Heat. The confidence of the Bulls generals My heart will definitely experience a surge!”

"I feel that the suspense of this year's championship is almost gone! I never imagined that the only thing that could completely eliminate the suspense of the championship is the absence of Jordan and Pippen!"

On the Bulls' bench, Jackson looked at Lin Tian and said worriedly: "Lin, do you need to rest?"

"Of course there is no need to rest at this time." Lin Tian took a sip of the energy drink and said with a smile: "Tonight, I will let the people of Miami keep the victory!"

"There are still 12 minutes left, and they will continue to target you! Can your physical strength last the entire game? Lin, you need to know that we need you who is still alive and kicking in the last 3 minutes of the game!"

"Don't worry, coach, I won't show off. The intensity of the Heat is nothing! I can definitely hold on."

Seeing Lin Tian's persistence, Jackson nodded and said no more, but suddenly there was a trace of reluctance in his heart.

This kid, Xia Tian is leaving!
If he can continue to stay with the Bulls, how many championships can he win? 2? 3?Or keep taking it?

Or... persuade Jordan to cut his salary to make room for the team, so that he can accomplish a feat that only the ancient Celtics have accomplished?

On the Heat side, Riley clapped his hands vigorously, encouraged his players, and said loudly: "Well done! Our defense in the third quarter was very successful! Yes, they still scored 30 Scored more than [-] points, but they couldn’t hold it anymore!”

"Their shooting percentage is obviously declining. Their physical strength is not enough. They can't match our intensity! Their shooting percentage in the fourth quarter will definitely be lower and worse!"

"Now, what we have to do is to continue to be firm in our previous choices and continue to maintain our previous defensive strategy! Role players are role players. They may be able to hit 1-2 key goals, but they cannot fail to play the entire game. Hit the key goal without stopping!"

"The fourth quarter is our time! Let us work together to defeat the Bulls! Win the game!"

"Yes!"

Accompanied by uniform shouts, the Heat's five starting players stood up together. At this point in the game, there is no room for error for both sides. The outcome is likely to be a matter of one round, a mistake, a strike or a shot. Bad decisions may tip the balance of the game.

So at this time, Riley also decided to shorten the rotation and no longer let substitute players appear. His top five starters will continue to appear!

If there are no accidents, these five people will definitely play the entire fourth quarter. Among these five people, except Leonard and Brown who took a break at the end of the third quarter, the rest of Mourning, Mashburn and Hardaway played the entire third quarter, which means that they will most likely play the entire second half!
Now Riley doesn't want to think about what to do in the next game after Jordan and Pippen come back, and he also tries hard not to let his players think about what to do in the next game.

Living in the moment!Win this one first, then talk about the others!
If the Heat still lose this game without Jordan Pippen, then not only will there be no suspense about the outcome of the series, but the Heat will become a laughing stock!

A laughing stock that can't even beat the opponent's second team!
The coaches on both sides had their own thoughts, and the referee had already walked onto the court and blew the whistle to start the game in the last 12 minutes of the fourth quarter!

The first offense of the fourth quarter was the Bulls' possession of the ball. Lin Tian slowly moved the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt and began to direct the movement of his teammates.

We still played pick-and-rolls countless times tonight. As long as the Bulls players played tonight, whether it was Cole, Harper, Longley, or Wennington, they all played pick-and-rolls with Lin Tian.

Although the Bulls have not practiced so many pick-and-rolls before, with Lin Tian here, he can use the most basic and entry-level cooperation in this set of basketball tactics to play a variety of different tricks and hit points. There are endless changes coming!

Or to put it simply: half of the Bulls' cooperation tonight relied on Lin Tian's on-the-spot reaction!All judgments are made based on past tacit understanding and instantaneous observation!
This ability belongs to Nash, the master of running and gunning and pick-and-roll, and of course it also belongs to Lin Tian’s own overall view and comprehensive observation ability!
This time, it was Rodman, who had little offensive ability, who stepped forward to play a pick-and-roll with Lin Tian.

After the pick-and-roll, the Heat immediately chose to leave Rodman completely open and instead double-teamed Lin Tian, ​​blocking him from the 3-point line.

Lin Tian dribbled the ball while retreating to create distance and space. At the same time, when Hardaway and Brown rushed up to defend closely, he passed the ball again with one hand!
"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, the basketball passed under Brown's crotch and flew directly into the hands of Rodman, who was already outside the three-second zone. Rodman took the ball and raised it toward the sky. Mo, whose reaction and state were obviously not online tonight, Ning jumped up immediately!
In this league, there are absolutely not many people who can be shaken up when facing Rodman. After all, the whole world knows that no matter how strong Rodman's rebounding level is, how poor his offensive ability is!

Facing him, keeping your hands straight and still will significantly reduce his hit rate.

But Mourning just jumped up, and it can be seen from this that he was indeed not in good condition tonight.

Dazzling Mourning, Rodman immediately took off and easily put the basket with both hands, scoring 2 points!
"Alonzo! Don't jump! Hold on, as long as you don't jump, no one on the Bulls can escape your defense!" Hardaway quickly ran to the basket, patted Mourning's butt, and encouraged him. !

Mourning breathed heavily and nodded. Although he only played a few minutes in the first half of the game, he still obviously had physical problems by this time.

The impact of a hangover is really huge!

Hardaway once again came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Lin Tian's single defense, he did not rush to attack on his own. As the game progressed, Hardaway became calmer and calmer as he played. The more he played, the more he knew what his responsibilities and tasks were!
He carefully protected the basketball. At this time, his mentality was not seeking merit, but seeking nothing!

By the time Mashburn got stuck in the low post again, firmly blocking Kukoc behind him, Hardaway's pass had already arrived!

Mashburn vs. Kukoc!This matchup is the one where the Heat have the most advantage and can beat the Bulls tonight!
Mashburn repeated his old trick, turning on the tank mode again, running over Kukoc all the way to the edge of the three-second zone, then suddenly turned around and lifted up, pushing Kukoc up!

Mashburn's bullet speed was too fast, and he bounced up like a rocket. Kukoc didn't react in time, and hit Mashburn's arm directly before his hands could avoid it.

"Beep! Kukoc's thug fouled!"

The referee's whistle immediately sounded, and at the same time the basketball got into the basket!

2+1!

The entire American Airlines Arena burst into cheers immediately. A large number of fans stood up, waving their arms crazily and shouting "Monster" to cheer for Mashburn!
Mashburn walked to the free throw line, took a deep breath, then raised his hand and made the free throw!
Then the Bulls attacked, Lin Tian once again found Cole outside the 3-point line, but Cole's 3-pointer failed to hit, and the rebound bounced very far, and was hugged by Leonard near the 3-point line. Then he threw it directly to Hardaway, who had already started to play quickly.

Hardaway held the ball against Lin Tian and ran all the way, hitting the basket non-stop. Then when he had already entered the 3-second zone, he suddenly jumped up and passed the ball, finding Leonard who was following up. Leonard 3 The shooter took off the ball and hit the 3-pointer directly!
89: 89!

Less than 2 minutes into the fourth quarter, the Heat tied the score!

The entire American Airlines Center once again welcomed crazy cheers and shouts!The fans all stood up and shouted crazily toward the court, shouting Leonard's name!

"Boy! Do you think you are the only one who can play fast? Do you think you are the only one who can play fast? Let me tell you! I am the founder of fast breaks in the league! Learn from me!" Hardaway, who sent out two consecutive passes, shouted at Lin Tian opened his mouth and sprayed wildly.

"For those who don't know, I thought you were 20 points ahead." Lin Tian shrugged, took the baseline ball, and pushed forward unhurriedly: "If we can be so arrogant when we tie the score, then I won the first three quarters. How much trash talk do I have to say to you? Huh? This seems to be the first time you have tied the score, so there is nothing to be proud of."

"We are ahead by more than 30 minutes!"

After unhurriedly dribbling the ball to the frontcourt, Lin Tian did not call for a pick-and-roll this time. Instead, he suddenly accelerated his breakthrough after dribbling continuously at the top of the arc, carrying Hardaway all the way to the basket, and then in front of Mourning. The moment he came to help defend, Lin Tian suddenly passed the ball from behind to Langley, who was left open. Langley picked up the ball and dunked it!

"boom!"

After a loud bang, Longley, who looked more like an All-Star center than Mourning tonight, raised his hands again and roared!

"The timing of Mourning's defense on this goal is already extremely extreme! I really don't know how else I can find a more perfect defense than Mourning's!" Marcus also shook his head in disbelief after this goal. : "When Mourning came over, it was the moment Lin collected the ball and started to jump!"

"Not bad!" Smith followed: "Such an extreme choice, such a timely defense, but what's the result? Lin was able to use an incredible behind-the-back pass after jumping up and having all shooting angles blocked. , to find his teammates who were left out, incredible! Really incredible!”

"How many eyes does he have and how many hands can he use to pass the ball? I am more and more convinced that Lin will become the best point guard after Magic Johnson!"

On the court, the two sides have entered into a state of attack again. The Heat's Mashburn back-up, mid-range shooting, and three-point pull-up. This guy scored 3 goals in a row in 3 consecutive rounds. Got 7 points!Kukoc was completely beaten by him tonight, and Mashburn was completely unstoppable!
But the Bulls did not give up too much. Although Kukoc was beaten by Mashburn, on the offensive end, he also successfully reached the basket and used his footsteps and rhythm to shake Mashburn and score a 2+1 response. Cole and Longley also each hit a layup after an air cut!
Tonight, the Heat will focus on Mashburn and let him bully Kukoc, while the Bulls will focus on air cuts and pick-and-rolls to constantly attack Mourning, who is in poor condition tonight!

After each scored three goals in a row, the coaches of both sides shouted tactics on the sidelines, and then the defenses of both sides began to change.

First, the Bulls no longer used Kukoc to defend Mashburn, but let Rodman, a veteran, deal with him. Kukoc faced Brown, who was not good at offense.

The Heat have slightly relaxed their defense of Lin Tian on the defensive end and no longer give the Bulls role players so much room to take action.

The Bulls' new defense immediately shut down Mashburn!Facing the veteran Rodman, Mashburn's skills were simply not on the table. After two failed attacks, Hardaway no longer actively looked for Mashburn when attacking.

But there are advantages and disadvantages. Although Rodman held down Mashburn, his protection of rebounds and assist defense against Mourning were obviously weaker. Brown seized the opportunity and got 2 offensive rebounds in a row. , and Mourning seized the opportunity, worked up his courage, and started scoring points under the basket!

Compared with the Bulls who were somewhat concerned about one thing and at the expense of the other, the Heat's new defense was obviously more effective. Facing this kind of semi-double-team defense, Lin Tian failed to make a shot despite passing the ball several times to his teammates!If it weren't for Longley and Rodman having some advantages in the paint and grabbing offensive rebounds, the Bulls would have been blown away by the Heat in this wave of attacks!

But even so, the Heat still relied on their relatively better state to slowly gain the lead!
Therefore, starting from 9 minutes and 30 seconds left in the final quarter until 5 minutes left in the final quarter, the Heat relied on more fierce defense and more effective defensive strategies to beat the Bulls in a 17:8 offensive wave.

In one fell swoop, they opened the point difference to 7 points!
106: 113!

With only 5 minutes left in the game, the Heat's advantage is quite big!
And, it's not over yet!

When Hardaway dribbled to the frontcourt again, facing Lin Tian's defense, Hardaway, who was already completely excited, didn't even make a fake move. He just pulled up to face Lin Tian and made an unreasonable shot. A super long 3 points!
Lin Tian quickly jumped to defend, and his fingernails touched a little basketball!
However, this touch failed to make the basketball pop out of the basket. Instead, the basketball hit the backboard and went directly into the net!

"Thank you so much, kid! You got one point for this goal!" Hardaway excitedly beat his chest with his hand, and at the same time continued to spray trash talk at Lin Tian: "We are 1 points ahead! You guys were ahead tonight. 10 points? Huh? Weak chicken!"

"In our first two games, we led by 30 points several times!" Lin Tian shrugged nonchalantly: "If you didn't know better, I would have thought you were leading the series 2:0 now! It's just that while Michael and Si Kurt is not here and is only a few points ahead of us, are you so proud?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, this is the first time in your life that you have entered a stage like the Eastern Conference Finals! It's your first time to see such a big scene! Do you need me to tell you how to stay calm and calm on such a stage? Style? After all, I’ve reached the Eastern Conference Finals every year of my career, and I haven’t lost here yet!”

What are double standards?

Mr. Lin is a double standard!

You talk to me about the current score, I talk to you about tonight's score, you talk to me about tonight's score, and I talk to you about this series!If you, Hardaway, still want to talk about this series, then I, Lin Daguan, can only talk to you about last year's finals!
There is no way, I, Mr. Lin, just love double standards!
No matter how hard Lin Tian sprayed, after the Heat led by 10 points, the Bulls still applied for a timeout.

Jackson, we still need to arrange it!
