NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade
Chapter 193 Lin Tian and Jordan both end!Crawford Shows Off United Center!
Chapter 193 Lin Tian and Jordan both end!Crawford Shows Off United Center!
In the previous games this season, these two teams have played twice. Although it is still a strong dialogue, for the fans, there has been a bit of slack. After all, it has been more than a month. After playing three games in a row, except for die-hard fans, the gimmicks of this game must have dropped a lot.
But after the league officially announced the final votes for the All-Star voting a few hours before the game, the entire public opinion instantly boiled, and all fans almost immediately turned their attention to this game.
On the CBS side, tonight they originally wanted to broadcast the Lakers vs. Heat, a dialogue between the top powers in the East and West. At the same time, Riley returned to Los Angeles again, there was a monster showdown between Mourning and O'Neal, and there were many more inside and outside the Atlantic Arena. Unknown celebrities came to watch the game.
But just after the All-Star starting list was revealed, CBS executives quickly held a small meeting, and then it took less than a minute to confirm one thing.
Broadcast plan, change!
Tonight, instead of broadcasting the Lakers and Heat, we will broadcast the Bulls and Pacers instead!
This kind of game, which is sure to hit the ratings without even thinking about it, if the CBS executives discuss it for more than 1 minute, then they are the real idiots!
Although the announcement of the live broadcast change plan was only released 30 minutes before the game, CBS still successfully capitalized on the popularity of the All-Star Game!
Five minutes before the start of the game broadcast, CBS's backend data showed that the number of viewers had reached 5 million!
Based on experience and calculations, CBS insiders believe that as the game progresses, this number will most likely exceed 1500 million, reaching 1700 million or even 2000 million! !
2000 million!
More than 90% of the finals will not be watched by so many people!
Just this number shows how wise Stern’s decision-making was!
The cornerstone of a sports league is its competitive strength and the excitement of the games, but these can only determine the lower limit of the league, and there are many things that determine the upper limit of the sports league.
But no matter what type it is and what method it is used, the ultimate goal of these methods is to allow this alliance to gain enough topic, attention, and discussion!
These things are all white money and green dollar bills!
Now, Stern gets it all!
Moreover, he paid almost nothing!
A complete whore for free!
There is no one in this world who doesn’t like free prostitution!
Now, if Lin Tian appeared in front of Stern, Stern would probably be able to hold Lin Tian's face and kiss him hard several times.
How much Stern wants to hug Lin Tian and take a bite, how angry Jordan is now, he really doesn't want to say a word to Lin Tian now!
Lin Tian didn't need to see Jordan in person to know how angry Jordan was now. He didn't even need to know the NBA All-Star voting results to know how angry Jordan was.
This afternoon Lin Tian suddenly received a full 500 experience points from Jordan!
A great giver, a generous loner, an admirable selfless devotee!
This is Lin Tian's positioning for Jordan this season.
"Mai..." Before the game started, Lin Tian watched the entire Bulls team's eyes blazing without saying a word. Lin Tian didn't know much about what they had just experienced in the locker room.
It must be that I don’t even dare to say anything, so what else can I do?
At this moment, Lin Tian wanted to say hello to Jordan, but after only uttering one syllable, the guy snorted, turned around and walked in the other direction.
Don't talk to this bastard, not a word.
Okay, Lin Tian scratched his nose with his hand. He looked very embarrassed at the moment, but in fact, he was very happy.
How angry Jordan is right now, how sweet will be the fruit he explodes tonight!
Harvest season is coming!
Tonight, the attitude of the entire United Center is similar to that of Jordan himself. Everyone knows why Lin Tian’s explosive votes and Miller and Barkley can enter the All-Star starting lineup. Everyone knows what these are. Where do the votes come from.
Lin Tian, China!
Therefore, there were no cheers, shouts, tribute videos, or any other activities to welcome Lin Tian at the United Center tonight.
The fans at the scene gave Barkley and Miller huge boos and curses when they came on the court!
The whole of Chicago paid Lin Tian the last respect by not booing him.
But that's about it.
Tonight's referee, coincidentally, was still Crawford. When this chubby bald man walked up to the center circle with a basketball, he looked at Jordan and Lin Tiandao: "I know very well what happened to you two bastards! Or That said, I don’t care what situation you two are in now, and I don’t care if you two want to kill each other.”
"During the game, you two, please be honest with me! Hide your bad temper off the court! Otherwise, I guarantee that you two will get out of the court early, do you understand?"
In response to Crawford's cruel words, Lin Tian yawned and Jordan continued to chew gum expressionlessly. Neither of them wanted to give Crawford face tonight.
Crawford doesn’t care about this. Anyway, if he says what he needs to say, that’s fine!As for whether the two guys at the back will cause trouble for themselves, we'll have to wait and see!
"We see that the United Center tonight is very unfriendly! When Lin came out, there wasn't even any cheers for him. This is completely different from the situation during the Christmas game!"
Smith's voice came from the TV, saying with obvious expectation: "But I think tonight's game will most likely be more exciting than the Christmas game!"
"That's right! No matter how many gimmicks there are, the Christmas game is still strictly speaking a regular season game, but tonight's game, well, tonight is also essentially a regular season game."
Marcus followed: "But Michael is obviously in a state of rage tonight. He will not accept his All-Star starting position being taken away. He will definitely give the Pacers a good look tonight." !”
"As for how far he will go, and how terrifying Jordan is when he is full of firepower and playing with the Pacers, I think tonight's game will give us a perfect answer!"
As the two commentators finished speaking, Crawford glanced at his watch and threw the basketball into the air. Longley stretched his arm as much as possible, picked up the ball, and gave it to Jordan.
Jordan took the basketball and started to advance directly, with no intention of giving the ball to the point guard Hubble.
Rose lowered his center of gravity and stretched out his hands, as if facing a formidable enemy. Of course he knew how angry Jordan was tonight, and he also knew how difficult Jordan was to be messed with tonight. Before the game, he had prepared enough The psychological construction is just waiting for the game to start.
But apparently, Rose still underestimated Jordan's anger.
After Jordan dribbled all the way to the 3-point line, he suddenly changed direction and dribbled into the 3-point line. Then when Rose caught up, he suddenly returned and hit Rose in the chest with his elbow, which almost caused Rose to spit out blood. After that, Jordan calmly jumped horizontally and took a mid-range jump shot!
"Shh!"
After the goal, Jordan chewed gum and looked at Rose, and said coldly: "Boy, if you don't want to die, just get away. You won't have a role tonight!"
Rose opened his mouth and originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Jordan's expressionless and murderous look, he chose to keep his mouth shut and did not dare to reply.
The unruly Rose was frightened by Jordan's momentum.
Not only did he not reply, he chose to run towards the frontcourt quickly. He did not dare to look at Jordan at all. He lowered his head directly and left Jordan's side almost as if he was running away, as if he would stay here any longer. In one second, he would be ripped off and eaten by Jordan.
Rose's evasion made Lin Tian frown. Lin Tian didn't like such a soft style.
But Lin Tian didn't say much. After all, it was a furious Jordan. Facing Jordan like this, his legs were weak, which was not too unacceptable.
However, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to look at each other, so there was a high probability that Rose wouldn't perform well tonight.
Even if Jordan ignored Rose after scoring the goal and quickly found Miller to chase his old enemy, Lin Tian felt that Rose must be useless tonight.
The next game also illustrates this point very well. On the offensive end, Rose was in no condition. Several of his shots and layups to the basket were obviously weak. It was obvious that he was not prepared physically and mentally. The reason why they are all trembling.
Miller, on the other hand, was being chased by Jordan like his father's enemy, and couldn't find any good opportunities to make a move. Longley and Rodman inside were trying their best to entangle Barkley and Schmitz. With Pippen's timely and quick defense, Lin Tian is the only one in the entire Pacers team who can score stably!
On the defensive end, Jordan almost defeated Rose with just a jump shot and a harsh word, although he would continue to spam trash talk every time he attacked.
But in Lin Tian's opinion, the trash talk he followed was at best a whipping or casual compliment. Ross had been completely confused by his physical and mental trash talk. Maybe Ross tonight Dead on the first turn of the game.
Facing a 'corpse', Jordan naturally showed no mercy at all, let alone lost his accuracy and condition. In less than 4 minutes, he made 6 of 5 shots and scored 11 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.
Then, just 4 minutes into the first quarter, Lin Tian finally couldn't stand it anymore. When Jordan hit his sixth goal and scored 13 points in less than half a quarter, he took it Ross pulled him aside and said, "You go and defend Ron, leave Michael to me!"
"Lin, where is your All-Star starter? He doesn't even have the courage and guts to play against me. How dare he be an All-Star starter? Huh?" Jordan saw that he let go and became Lin Tian, and he had no idea. Pause, open your mouth and continue spraying.
"We have three All-Star starters, which one are you looking for?"
Lin Tian was dribbling the ball forward while talking nonsense with Jordan.
You know, the entire Pacers team is not in good shape tonight and was severely restricted by the Bulls. So if he wants to face the furious version of Jordan and score 13 points in less than half a quarter, Lin Tian must also Just use full firepower!
Facing Hubble, Lin Tian also scored 4 points in 11 minutes.
And this 4-minute game is basically a microcosm of the first quarter of the game between the two sides.
Jordan VS Lin Tian!
The outcome of the game basically depends on these two people, who can play a more crazy and unsolvable performance!
At least in the first quarter of the game, it was hard to tell between the two. Lin Tian made 11 of 7 shots, 3 of 4 2-pointers, and 3 of 2 free throws. He scored 18 points and 2 assists. However, because his teammates were out of shape, Lin Tian also appeared. Made 2 turnovers.
Jordan made 13 of 9 shots and 4 points on all 22 free throws. Neither Lin Tian nor Rose could stop his furious offensive firepower.
But for the Bulls this night, their biggest advantage is the resurrected Pippen with full health!
After the Pacers' offense failed, they were naturally unable to stop the Bulls on the defensive end. While Jordan scored 22 points in a single quarter, Pippen also scored 8 points in the first quarter!
Under the leadership of these two people, the Bulls scored 35 points in the first quarter!
There is no second person on the Pacers side to share Lin Tian's burden. Barkley and Miller were completely locked up. Together, they only hit one ball and scored 5 points on 1 of 2 shots. Rose was even beaten by Jordan and Miller. Pippen was so frightened that he went 3-for-0 from the field and missed 1 point.
If Dumars, who came off the bench, hadn't hit two open 3-pointers, the Pacers would have fallen behind by more than 10 points in the first quarter!
But even so, they only scored 28 points in the first quarter, trailing the Bulls by 7 points!
In the second quarter of the game, Jordan did not rest. He continued to play with red eyes. He worked hard today to beat the Pacers to death, to beat Miller to death, and to let the world know who is the best. The real All-Stars are starting!
When Jordan came up, Lin Tian certainly wouldn't sit off the court. The situation in tonight's game was very obvious. Lin Tian had to hold on until his teammates found their form!
In the first offense of the second quarter, Lin Tian advanced with the ball, and because Jordan's number one target, Miller, was resting off the court, the Bulls no longer let Hubble guard him, and directly asked Jordan to lower himself, and Lin Tian The sky is right!
"Come on, Lin! Come on, let me see what a team with three All-Star starters looks like!" Jordan stepped on the 3-point line, stretched out his hand and slapped the floor, letting out wild beast-like sounds. He screamed, he must let these Indiana hillbillies know today how serious the consequences of snatching things from him are!
"Shh!"
Lin Tian responded to Jordan's demonstration by slapping the floor. He took advantage of the moment when he was bending down to smack the floor, pulled it up and shot a 3-pointer and hit it!
"What are you doing on the floor, Michael? Did you drop your money? Do you need me to help you find it?" After Lin Tian scored, while taunting Jordan, he reached out and slapped him on the butt.
"FUXX!" Jordan cursed, and then quickly passed the baseline ball and came all the way to the frontcourt. At this time, all teammates, tactics, and overall situation were fucked!
Facing Lin Tian, the furious Jordan just took a shot as soon as he reached the 3-point line!
"Shh!"
After another crisp sound, Jordan took advantage of his 7-centimeter height advantage to score a goal against Lin Tian!
"Snapped!"
After landing, Jordan, who never suffers, gave Lin Tian a slap on the butt: "Do you want me to lend you a few centimeters of height, shorty? Or I won't jump so high next time, so that you can guard against me instead of just watching. Do I shoot?"
Lin Tian's response to Jordan's trash talk was very direct. He quickly drove into the paint with the ball, and hit Wennington with a pull-up layup!
After landing, Lin Tian looked back and saw Jordan, and hit Jordan's butt again.
"Snapped!"
Lin Tian hit him a little too hard this time, and the sound could even be heard by the audience in the front row.
"You two! What are you doing! Pay attention to me! If you hit someone again, I will kick you both out of the stadium!" After Lin Tian hit him, he didn't even have time to talk trash. Crowe Fu Fu came over and reminded the two of them to pay attention to the scale!
"We're kidding sir! Michael doesn't give a shit, does he Michael!"
"Snapped!"
As Lin Tian said that, he worked hard and hit Jordan's butt again!
"This is our way of showing friendship!"
"Not bad! This is our way of expressing friendship!" Jordan endured the pain and used all his strength to hit Lin Tian on the butt again!
"Snapped!"
This sound was even clearer and louder, and Crawford even felt that his ears were a little painful from the shock.
Lin Tian gasped at the blow from Jordan, and then raised his hand to give Jordan another gift in return.
When Crawford saw that these two people were still playing here, he couldn't stop playing. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, took out his whistle, and gave each of them a technical foul!
But after he made the two T gestures, Jordan and Lin Tian were completely unrepentant. Jordan spread his hands and said: "We are good friends. This is just us saying hello. Why don't you let us say hello?"
"Snapped!"
As soon as Jordan finished speaking, Lin Tian slapped him on the butt again and said: "We played like this every day when we were teammates. You can't stop us! Even the referee can't stop us from saying hello to each other."
"In addition, the way we greeted each other was not swearing or giving the middle finger. It was such a harmonious and friendly scene, but you actually gave us a technical foul?"
Seeing Jordan raise his hand and want to hit Lin Tian again, but Lin Tian dodged it with a spinning jump very cleverly, and raised his hand to hit Jordan again, Crawford couldn't bear it anymore!
"Technical foul! One for each person! They are all second! Get out! Get out! You two, get out!" Crawford blew his whistle crazily, pointed at the player tunnel, and signaled to both guys. Get out now.
"I didn't do anything!" Jordan's eyes widened in disbelief and he spread his hands. He couldn't accept the fact that he was sent out like this.
He has been playing for more than ten years and knows the standards of refereeing all too well.
He is Michael Jordan, and he has a superstar guard body!
No referee would give him two Ts and send him out at this point in the game!
He has never been expelled by a referee in his previous career!
After all, the fans at the scene and in front of the TV are all here to see Jordan!
In the commercial league, as long as the fouls are not excessive or the referees are not taken seriously, the referees will definitely tolerate it when they should. After all, they cannot be at odds with the audience.
Of course, it is one thing for the referees to give face, but it is more important for Jordan to have a standard in his own mind!He never fouls his opponents, and his trash talk and vicious moves are just right. He will be called for fouls and technical fouls, but he can always grasp the scale.
For example, tonight, he felt that his performance and actions were completely within the standard, and he shouldn't even get a T, let alone two!
But today, Crawford actually dared to give him two technical fouls in a row, no, four!
There are also two from Lin Tian!
This bald madman actually dared to punish himself and Lin Tian at once?Looking at Crawford with wide eyes, Jordan kept nodding. Lin Tian next to him said: "Michael, forget it, since this guy blew it, let's just leave the game. There is no need to argue in anger. There is no benefit in offending the referee." , and it is very likely that he will be additionally suspended.”
"What offends him? I'm afraid of a bald man? Additional suspension? Am I afraid of that?" Jordan immediately became furious and directed his attack at Lin Tian.
"Who are you calling bald? Aren't you bald yourself?" Crawford touched his bald head. Now he didn't want to endure it anymore, so he opened his mouth and sprayed it back.
For no other reason, he is just unhappy with you, Jordan, a bald man, complaining that he is bald!If it were Lin Tianpeng, he would admit it!
After all, the hair on Lin Tian’s head is thicker than the vegetation in the Amazon forest, so it’s enough to spray it, but your Jordan head is so smooth that even a mosquito would slip and fall over if he stood on it, so why should you say that? I?
"I'm just too lazy to trim it. If I wanted to grow my hair, my hair would grow all over my head in two weeks at most." Jordan's eyes widened and he continued: "What's more, suspended? I'll be beaten for fighting someone. You're banned for saying hello? I'll complain about you damn bald man when I get back!"
"Wait to be fined and suspended!" After Jordan said this, he no longer stayed on the court. After all, he had been expelled. If he continued to stay on the court, then maybe he would You will really be punished additionally.
On the way to leave, he didn't even look at Lin Tian again. Even though the two of them were on the same front just now, Jordan didn't even want to talk to Lin Tian.
Why is my All-Star starter gone?
Why can a certain Miller steal my All-Star starting spot?
No talking to you bastards!
When Jordan strode out of the court, Lin Tian had already received the system prompt again.
Unfortunately, it’s still experience!
I'm so angry today that I'm going to burst into rage. Why don't you give me something good to do?
Lin Tian felt that as he became stronger and stronger, the system became more and more stingy, and he had to add fuel to the fire to the bastard Jordan!
At this moment, the most angry person was not Jordan or Lin Tian, let alone Crawford, or even everyone at the United Center.
The most angry person is the person in charge of CBS sports programs. This guy was secretly delighted when he looked at the number of viewers climbing toward 2000 million just a few minutes ago!
What a wise decision!
For such a game that was decided to be broadcast at short notice and was warmed up only 30 minutes before the game, if it can get such a high viewership share, he is ready to write it directly into his future autobiography or memoirs, and every week in the next few months At every regular meeting, I would mention my witty behavior.
But now, this bastard Crawford actually punished Jordan and Lin Tian?
This damn bald man actually drove the two major guarantees of ratings for this game out of the stadium?
How dare he?
What was he thinking about riding a horse?
Are you out of your mind?
What to do with my ratings?What else are the spectators watching?
The CBS executive was so angry that he called Stern on the spot.
complaint!
Severe punishment!
ban!
Some things don't matter, but he will never tolerate this kind of thing, this kind of thing that ruins his job!
If the referees casually punish the stars and ratings protectors for such unwarranted reasons, then he will still broadcast crappy games in the future!
Before his call went out, someone called him first.
"I'm David." The caller was Stern, who responded equally quickly.
"Sorry, Crawford's call was really stupid!" Stern struck preemptively. Before you got angry, I took the initiative to apologize and admit my mistake, and my attitude was very good: "I will immediately organize a dispute between the referees. Training courses, give them a good training on issues of scale and whistleblowing standards."
"This situation will never happen again!"
Stern's anger at the moment is no better than anyone else's.
Such a good gimmick, such a good match, and the two of them in such great shape, it was like a 50+ showdown.
But the result?
You, Crawford, punished these two after just one game.
Then how can I sell tickets and build popularity?
In particular, this game is the last regular season meeting between the Bulls and Pacers!
Whether they can meet again this season and whether they can have another duel in the playoffs, no one can say for sure!
In a showdown of this level, you Crawford punished Jordan and Lin Tian by spanking each other a few times just because they made a joke?
It's just crazy!
It's not a pity to die!
Of course, Crawford didn't know that his willful whistle offended two big guys at the same time, and he was secretly proud of it.
I am just tough!No matter what Vitti or Bavetta, they are not as tough as me!
A referee must look like a referee!
Crawford never imagined that he was about to be in trouble.
Lin Tian had already walked to the Pacers' bench and said to his teammates: "Michael has been beaten by me, and the rest is up to you."
"You have to cheer up! You have to kill the Chicagoans!" Lin Tian clapped his hands and loudly encouraged his teammates who were in poor condition in the first quarter, hoping to get them back to form and win the game!
After the game, Lin Tianke had an important plan!A plan that will definitely make Jordan produce more blood and give him some good stuff.
But if we lose the game, the plan will not be implemented.
"Reggie! Without Michael's entanglement, you will definitely be able to outrun Steve Kerr who is facing you, and let them see what the league's number one shooter is! And you, Jaylen, don't have to continue to defend Michael, you All your energy can be used on offense!"
"Let them take a good look at what the new generation of best swingman in the East is capable of! Charles, you have to prove that you are still the MVP!"
Lin Tian patted his teammates on the shoulders one by one. He didn't want his plan to be unable to be implemented later because of his teammates' slackness and poor condition!
After encouraging a large group of people, Bird looked at Lin Tiandao: "You don't need to encourage me. You have already done all my work. You don't want to do the boss's work too, right?"
Lin Tian smiled and shrugged, patted Bird on the shoulder and said, "I'm waiting for your good news in the locker room."
After finishing speaking, Lin Tian walked towards the locker room.
And this time, when he left the game, the fans at the United Center finally booed intermittently.
After Lin Tian and Jordan left the arena one after another, the game between the two sides continued. Without their respective leaders, the scoring efficiency and shooting percentage of both sides dropped significantly.
Originally, Lin Tian believed that without Jordan, the Bulls would only have Pippen able to sustain the game, while the Pacers still had two first-class stars in Barkley and Miller, Rose, a rising star, and Dumars, Anji and other powerful veterans.
No matter how you look at it, in terms of paper strength, the Pacers are better. They should be able to control the situation of the game and quickly overtake the Bulls.
But what Lin Tian didn't expect was that the actual situation of the game was completely different from what he imagined!
Although the Bulls did not have Jordan, they relied on Pippen's excellent form and perfect performance. At the end of the second quarter, they not only withstood the Pacers' counterattack, always maintained the lead, and even further increased the point difference. The expansion!
55: 46!
At the end of the first half, the Bulls' lead reached 9 points!
After Jordan left the game, Pippen also scored perfect statistics of 17 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in just half a game. Coupled with the performance of Hubble, Longley, Kukoc and others, the Bulls can lead by 9 The first half ended with points, which can be considered normal.
At halftime, the entire Pacers team looked a little downcast when they walked into the locker room.
After all, after the opponent did not have the team leader, they still could not narrow the score and continued the previous gap. This was a big blow to the Pacers players.
Their lofty ideals seemed extremely funny at this time.
As a result, without Lin Tian, are we just a mid-range team with a winning rate of about 50% and can only strive to reach the playoffs?
This idea made the self-righteous and arrogant guys in the Pacers feel a huge sense of frustration.
Without Lin, would we be so good?
Lin Tian, who was waiting for his teammates in the locker room, saw that the team had no morale. He knew that if he didn't find a way to boost the morale of the players, there would be no need to play the second half of the game and he would just surrender. Bar.
"Charles, Reggie, come on, I have something to say to you two." Lin Tian waved his hand and called the two most frustrated and lifeless team bosses to his side: " Do you want to hear what plans I have in mind?"
"Plan?" Buckley was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Lin Tian was talking about.
"It's a plan to make Michael fly into a rage and be so angry that he can't eat or sleep for three days." Lin Tian chuckled and said, "I promise that if we can win the game, I have a way to make Michael so angry that he goes crazy!"
"Is there such a good thing?" Miller asked curiously.
"It's just a game. Even if Michael would be unhappy if he lost, he wouldn't be able to sleep for three days." As one of Jordan's best friends, Barkley also said that Jordan would not be angry because of losing a game. Even though this game is quite important, it also has quite extraordinary significance.
After all, Jordan is not that fragile!
"Normally, Michael would not be that stupid, nor would he take the outcome of a regular season game too seriously, even if he just lost his All-Star starting spot a few hours before this game. "
Lin Tian smiled and said: "But what if after this game is over, I go to the media to add fuel to the fire? What if I go to break some shocking news to the media?"
Lin Tian lowered his voice as he spoke, and whispered in the ears of Buckley and Miller.
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, Barkley and Miller's eyes lit up!The slump just now disappeared magically, and the two of them changed their faces so fast that even Lin Tian himself was amazed.
At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh: How many people has this bastard Jordan offended?
Why is it that when everyone hears that it can embarrass Jordan, they immediately feel like they come home from playing and see thirty naked women waiting to have a silver party together? One is excited, the other is crazy!
"Don't worry, Lin! Everything is left to me!" Barkley patted his chest and said, "Tonight I tried my best to win the Bulls! If Dennis dares to come against me, I will kill him." Beat him to death!"
"What Charles said is right. If I don't win today's game, will I still have the nerve to play in the league in the future? Even if I have to break my leg, I will win the game! Isn't it just 9 points behind? There is still half a game. Here! In the second half, we will kill them!"
Lin Tian was very reassured that the team's two most important main players, other than Lin Tian, expressed their opinions at the same time.
He believes that this game must be stable!
Unless Pippen transformed into Jordan and scored 4 or 50 points in the second half, the Bulls would definitely be gone tonight!
Lin Tian, who was so proud, did not notice that less than three meters away from where he and Miller Barkley were plotting, Rose, who had performed well in the first half and scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, was looking very unhappy. Over here.
He doesn't understand.
Obviously he performed best in the first half, why didn't Lin Tian talk to him for a few words?Why didn't this small group, which looked like they were having a war meeting, not call me?
What's the use of calling these two old guys and mumbling endlessly?
If these two old guys were useful, they would not have scored in double figures in the first half, nor would they have ended the first half with the Bulls leading by 9 points!
"Jalen Rose's mood fluctuated and dropped 50 experience points!"
Lin Tian had just finished discussing with Miller and Barkley when he received a prompt from the system.
He curiously looked over Miller's shoulder and saw Rose who looked dissatisfied, with three parts resentment, three parts jealousy and four parts displeasure.
This kid doesn't want to cause trouble.
Lin Tian muttered and stopped paying attention to why Rose suddenly gave himself 50 experience points. That was not what he needed to worry about now.
What he wants to think about now is how to stimulate Jordan after the game!
Soon, the intermission ended, and Lin Tian was once again the only one left in the Pacers' locker room.
Then, Lin Tian calmly found something to eat and drink, and then turned on the TV. Even if he couldn't play, he still had to watch it!
As soon as Lin Tian turned on the TV, he saw Barkley playing in the low post and attracting double teams, and then passed directly to Miller.
"Shh!"
After catching the ball, Miller didn't hesitate or be polite. He just picked it up and threw it, and hit a 3-pointer!
This 3-point goal was not only the first goal of the second half for both sides, but it also seemed to open up the Pacers' second line, and their crazy attack began!
Barkley hit hard in the low post, Miller hit another shot from outside the 3-point line, Schmitz hit a mid-range jumper, and Dumars, who started in place of Lin Tian, also rarely got to the basket for a layup.
In the first 3 minutes, the Pacers blasted a 12-0 wave, taking the lead directly in one fell swoop!
In this wave of offense, the Pacers only had Rose, who didn't even touch the ball, let alone contribute on the offensive end. Then, Rose, whose mentality was a little unbalanced, was beaten by Pippen on the neck. After a 2+1, the Bulls tied the score again!
But in any case, the two sides will be on the same starting line for the next game. Although Jordan and Lin Tian are gone, although CBS’s viewership has dropped from a peak of nearly 2000 million to 7-800 million, But this game is still exciting!
The score between the two sides was entangled until the last minute of the game. The Pacers had a 1-point lead. Then Pippen hit the basket and failed to hit the layup. Then Miller turned around and chased for a 1-pointer to widen the difference to 3 points. , almost killed the game.
Then Cole's desperate 3-pointer bounced out of the frame. Barkley grabbed the rebound and found Dumas, who was about to leave, to assist him for a layup, widening the point difference to 6 points!
At this time, there was less than 20 seconds left in the game.
As Jackson called the final timeout and Kukoc missed a 3-pointer after catching the ball, the Bulls lost this crucial game.
Lin Tian in the locker room had already raised his arms and started cheering when Dumas widened the point difference to 6 points. When the whistle officially ended the game, Lin Tian knew that it was time to perform by himself!
(End of this chapter)
In the previous games this season, these two teams have played twice. Although it is still a strong dialogue, for the fans, there has been a bit of slack. After all, it has been more than a month. After playing three games in a row, except for die-hard fans, the gimmicks of this game must have dropped a lot.
But after the league officially announced the final votes for the All-Star voting a few hours before the game, the entire public opinion instantly boiled, and all fans almost immediately turned their attention to this game.
On the CBS side, tonight they originally wanted to broadcast the Lakers vs. Heat, a dialogue between the top powers in the East and West. At the same time, Riley returned to Los Angeles again, there was a monster showdown between Mourning and O'Neal, and there were many more inside and outside the Atlantic Arena. Unknown celebrities came to watch the game.
But just after the All-Star starting list was revealed, CBS executives quickly held a small meeting, and then it took less than a minute to confirm one thing.
Broadcast plan, change!
Tonight, instead of broadcasting the Lakers and Heat, we will broadcast the Bulls and Pacers instead!
This kind of game, which is sure to hit the ratings without even thinking about it, if the CBS executives discuss it for more than 1 minute, then they are the real idiots!
Although the announcement of the live broadcast change plan was only released 30 minutes before the game, CBS still successfully capitalized on the popularity of the All-Star Game!
Five minutes before the start of the game broadcast, CBS's backend data showed that the number of viewers had reached 5 million!
Based on experience and calculations, CBS insiders believe that as the game progresses, this number will most likely exceed 1500 million, reaching 1700 million or even 2000 million! !
2000 million!
More than 90% of the finals will not be watched by so many people!
Just this number shows how wise Stern’s decision-making was!
The cornerstone of a sports league is its competitive strength and the excitement of the games, but these can only determine the lower limit of the league, and there are many things that determine the upper limit of the sports league.
But no matter what type it is and what method it is used, the ultimate goal of these methods is to allow this alliance to gain enough topic, attention, and discussion!
These things are all white money and green dollar bills!
Now, Stern gets it all!
Moreover, he paid almost nothing!
A complete whore for free!
There is no one in this world who doesn’t like free prostitution!
Now, if Lin Tian appeared in front of Stern, Stern would probably be able to hold Lin Tian's face and kiss him hard several times.
How much Stern wants to hug Lin Tian and take a bite, how angry Jordan is now, he really doesn't want to say a word to Lin Tian now!
Lin Tian didn't need to see Jordan in person to know how angry Jordan was now. He didn't even need to know the NBA All-Star voting results to know how angry Jordan was.
This afternoon Lin Tian suddenly received a full 500 experience points from Jordan!
A great giver, a generous loner, an admirable selfless devotee!
This is Lin Tian's positioning for Jordan this season.
"Mai..." Before the game started, Lin Tian watched the entire Bulls team's eyes blazing without saying a word. Lin Tian didn't know much about what they had just experienced in the locker room.
It must be that I don’t even dare to say anything, so what else can I do?
At this moment, Lin Tian wanted to say hello to Jordan, but after only uttering one syllable, the guy snorted, turned around and walked in the other direction.
Don't talk to this bastard, not a word.
Okay, Lin Tian scratched his nose with his hand. He looked very embarrassed at the moment, but in fact, he was very happy.
How angry Jordan is right now, how sweet will be the fruit he explodes tonight!
Harvest season is coming!
Tonight, the attitude of the entire United Center is similar to that of Jordan himself. Everyone knows why Lin Tian’s explosive votes and Miller and Barkley can enter the All-Star starting lineup. Everyone knows what these are. Where do the votes come from.
Lin Tian, China!
Therefore, there were no cheers, shouts, tribute videos, or any other activities to welcome Lin Tian at the United Center tonight.
The fans at the scene gave Barkley and Miller huge boos and curses when they came on the court!
The whole of Chicago paid Lin Tian the last respect by not booing him.
But that's about it.
Tonight's referee, coincidentally, was still Crawford. When this chubby bald man walked up to the center circle with a basketball, he looked at Jordan and Lin Tiandao: "I know very well what happened to you two bastards! Or That said, I don’t care what situation you two are in now, and I don’t care if you two want to kill each other.”
"During the game, you two, please be honest with me! Hide your bad temper off the court! Otherwise, I guarantee that you two will get out of the court early, do you understand?"
In response to Crawford's cruel words, Lin Tian yawned and Jordan continued to chew gum expressionlessly. Neither of them wanted to give Crawford face tonight.
Crawford doesn’t care about this. Anyway, if he says what he needs to say, that’s fine!As for whether the two guys at the back will cause trouble for themselves, we'll have to wait and see!
"We see that the United Center tonight is very unfriendly! When Lin came out, there wasn't even any cheers for him. This is completely different from the situation during the Christmas game!"
Smith's voice came from the TV, saying with obvious expectation: "But I think tonight's game will most likely be more exciting than the Christmas game!"
"That's right! No matter how many gimmicks there are, the Christmas game is still strictly speaking a regular season game, but tonight's game, well, tonight is also essentially a regular season game."
Marcus followed: "But Michael is obviously in a state of rage tonight. He will not accept his All-Star starting position being taken away. He will definitely give the Pacers a good look tonight." !”
"As for how far he will go, and how terrifying Jordan is when he is full of firepower and playing with the Pacers, I think tonight's game will give us a perfect answer!"
As the two commentators finished speaking, Crawford glanced at his watch and threw the basketball into the air. Longley stretched his arm as much as possible, picked up the ball, and gave it to Jordan.
Jordan took the basketball and started to advance directly, with no intention of giving the ball to the point guard Hubble.
Rose lowered his center of gravity and stretched out his hands, as if facing a formidable enemy. Of course he knew how angry Jordan was tonight, and he also knew how difficult Jordan was to be messed with tonight. Before the game, he had prepared enough The psychological construction is just waiting for the game to start.
But apparently, Rose still underestimated Jordan's anger.
After Jordan dribbled all the way to the 3-point line, he suddenly changed direction and dribbled into the 3-point line. Then when Rose caught up, he suddenly returned and hit Rose in the chest with his elbow, which almost caused Rose to spit out blood. After that, Jordan calmly jumped horizontally and took a mid-range jump shot!
"Shh!"
After the goal, Jordan chewed gum and looked at Rose, and said coldly: "Boy, if you don't want to die, just get away. You won't have a role tonight!"
Rose opened his mouth and originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Jordan's expressionless and murderous look, he chose to keep his mouth shut and did not dare to reply.
The unruly Rose was frightened by Jordan's momentum.
Not only did he not reply, he chose to run towards the frontcourt quickly. He did not dare to look at Jordan at all. He lowered his head directly and left Jordan's side almost as if he was running away, as if he would stay here any longer. In one second, he would be ripped off and eaten by Jordan.
Rose's evasion made Lin Tian frown. Lin Tian didn't like such a soft style.
But Lin Tian didn't say much. After all, it was a furious Jordan. Facing Jordan like this, his legs were weak, which was not too unacceptable.
However, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to look at each other, so there was a high probability that Rose wouldn't perform well tonight.
Even if Jordan ignored Rose after scoring the goal and quickly found Miller to chase his old enemy, Lin Tian felt that Rose must be useless tonight.
The next game also illustrates this point very well. On the offensive end, Rose was in no condition. Several of his shots and layups to the basket were obviously weak. It was obvious that he was not prepared physically and mentally. The reason why they are all trembling.
Miller, on the other hand, was being chased by Jordan like his father's enemy, and couldn't find any good opportunities to make a move. Longley and Rodman inside were trying their best to entangle Barkley and Schmitz. With Pippen's timely and quick defense, Lin Tian is the only one in the entire Pacers team who can score stably!
On the defensive end, Jordan almost defeated Rose with just a jump shot and a harsh word, although he would continue to spam trash talk every time he attacked.
But in Lin Tian's opinion, the trash talk he followed was at best a whipping or casual compliment. Ross had been completely confused by his physical and mental trash talk. Maybe Ross tonight Dead on the first turn of the game.
Facing a 'corpse', Jordan naturally showed no mercy at all, let alone lost his accuracy and condition. In less than 4 minutes, he made 6 of 5 shots and scored 11 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.
Then, just 4 minutes into the first quarter, Lin Tian finally couldn't stand it anymore. When Jordan hit his sixth goal and scored 13 points in less than half a quarter, he took it Ross pulled him aside and said, "You go and defend Ron, leave Michael to me!"
"Lin, where is your All-Star starter? He doesn't even have the courage and guts to play against me. How dare he be an All-Star starter? Huh?" Jordan saw that he let go and became Lin Tian, and he had no idea. Pause, open your mouth and continue spraying.
"We have three All-Star starters, which one are you looking for?"
Lin Tian was dribbling the ball forward while talking nonsense with Jordan.
You know, the entire Pacers team is not in good shape tonight and was severely restricted by the Bulls. So if he wants to face the furious version of Jordan and score 13 points in less than half a quarter, Lin Tian must also Just use full firepower!
Facing Hubble, Lin Tian also scored 4 points in 11 minutes.
And this 4-minute game is basically a microcosm of the first quarter of the game between the two sides.
Jordan VS Lin Tian!
The outcome of the game basically depends on these two people, who can play a more crazy and unsolvable performance!
At least in the first quarter of the game, it was hard to tell between the two. Lin Tian made 11 of 7 shots, 3 of 4 2-pointers, and 3 of 2 free throws. He scored 18 points and 2 assists. However, because his teammates were out of shape, Lin Tian also appeared. Made 2 turnovers.
Jordan made 13 of 9 shots and 4 points on all 22 free throws. Neither Lin Tian nor Rose could stop his furious offensive firepower.
But for the Bulls this night, their biggest advantage is the resurrected Pippen with full health!
After the Pacers' offense failed, they were naturally unable to stop the Bulls on the defensive end. While Jordan scored 22 points in a single quarter, Pippen also scored 8 points in the first quarter!
Under the leadership of these two people, the Bulls scored 35 points in the first quarter!
There is no second person on the Pacers side to share Lin Tian's burden. Barkley and Miller were completely locked up. Together, they only hit one ball and scored 5 points on 1 of 2 shots. Rose was even beaten by Jordan and Miller. Pippen was so frightened that he went 3-for-0 from the field and missed 1 point.
If Dumars, who came off the bench, hadn't hit two open 3-pointers, the Pacers would have fallen behind by more than 10 points in the first quarter!
But even so, they only scored 28 points in the first quarter, trailing the Bulls by 7 points!
In the second quarter of the game, Jordan did not rest. He continued to play with red eyes. He worked hard today to beat the Pacers to death, to beat Miller to death, and to let the world know who is the best. The real All-Stars are starting!
When Jordan came up, Lin Tian certainly wouldn't sit off the court. The situation in tonight's game was very obvious. Lin Tian had to hold on until his teammates found their form!
In the first offense of the second quarter, Lin Tian advanced with the ball, and because Jordan's number one target, Miller, was resting off the court, the Bulls no longer let Hubble guard him, and directly asked Jordan to lower himself, and Lin Tian The sky is right!
"Come on, Lin! Come on, let me see what a team with three All-Star starters looks like!" Jordan stepped on the 3-point line, stretched out his hand and slapped the floor, letting out wild beast-like sounds. He screamed, he must let these Indiana hillbillies know today how serious the consequences of snatching things from him are!
"Shh!"
Lin Tian responded to Jordan's demonstration by slapping the floor. He took advantage of the moment when he was bending down to smack the floor, pulled it up and shot a 3-pointer and hit it!
"What are you doing on the floor, Michael? Did you drop your money? Do you need me to help you find it?" After Lin Tian scored, while taunting Jordan, he reached out and slapped him on the butt.
"FUXX!" Jordan cursed, and then quickly passed the baseline ball and came all the way to the frontcourt. At this time, all teammates, tactics, and overall situation were fucked!
Facing Lin Tian, the furious Jordan just took a shot as soon as he reached the 3-point line!
"Shh!"
After another crisp sound, Jordan took advantage of his 7-centimeter height advantage to score a goal against Lin Tian!
"Snapped!"
After landing, Jordan, who never suffers, gave Lin Tian a slap on the butt: "Do you want me to lend you a few centimeters of height, shorty? Or I won't jump so high next time, so that you can guard against me instead of just watching. Do I shoot?"
Lin Tian's response to Jordan's trash talk was very direct. He quickly drove into the paint with the ball, and hit Wennington with a pull-up layup!
After landing, Lin Tian looked back and saw Jordan, and hit Jordan's butt again.
"Snapped!"
Lin Tian hit him a little too hard this time, and the sound could even be heard by the audience in the front row.
"You two! What are you doing! Pay attention to me! If you hit someone again, I will kick you both out of the stadium!" After Lin Tian hit him, he didn't even have time to talk trash. Crowe Fu Fu came over and reminded the two of them to pay attention to the scale!
"We're kidding sir! Michael doesn't give a shit, does he Michael!"
"Snapped!"
As Lin Tian said that, he worked hard and hit Jordan's butt again!
"This is our way of showing friendship!"
"Not bad! This is our way of expressing friendship!" Jordan endured the pain and used all his strength to hit Lin Tian on the butt again!
"Snapped!"
This sound was even clearer and louder, and Crawford even felt that his ears were a little painful from the shock.
Lin Tian gasped at the blow from Jordan, and then raised his hand to give Jordan another gift in return.
When Crawford saw that these two people were still playing here, he couldn't stop playing. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, took out his whistle, and gave each of them a technical foul!
But after he made the two T gestures, Jordan and Lin Tian were completely unrepentant. Jordan spread his hands and said: "We are good friends. This is just us saying hello. Why don't you let us say hello?"
"Snapped!"
As soon as Jordan finished speaking, Lin Tian slapped him on the butt again and said: "We played like this every day when we were teammates. You can't stop us! Even the referee can't stop us from saying hello to each other."
"In addition, the way we greeted each other was not swearing or giving the middle finger. It was such a harmonious and friendly scene, but you actually gave us a technical foul?"
Seeing Jordan raise his hand and want to hit Lin Tian again, but Lin Tian dodged it with a spinning jump very cleverly, and raised his hand to hit Jordan again, Crawford couldn't bear it anymore!
"Technical foul! One for each person! They are all second! Get out! Get out! You two, get out!" Crawford blew his whistle crazily, pointed at the player tunnel, and signaled to both guys. Get out now.
"I didn't do anything!" Jordan's eyes widened in disbelief and he spread his hands. He couldn't accept the fact that he was sent out like this.
He has been playing for more than ten years and knows the standards of refereeing all too well.
He is Michael Jordan, and he has a superstar guard body!
No referee would give him two Ts and send him out at this point in the game!
He has never been expelled by a referee in his previous career!
After all, the fans at the scene and in front of the TV are all here to see Jordan!
In the commercial league, as long as the fouls are not excessive or the referees are not taken seriously, the referees will definitely tolerate it when they should. After all, they cannot be at odds with the audience.
Of course, it is one thing for the referees to give face, but it is more important for Jordan to have a standard in his own mind!He never fouls his opponents, and his trash talk and vicious moves are just right. He will be called for fouls and technical fouls, but he can always grasp the scale.
For example, tonight, he felt that his performance and actions were completely within the standard, and he shouldn't even get a T, let alone two!
But today, Crawford actually dared to give him two technical fouls in a row, no, four!
There are also two from Lin Tian!
This bald madman actually dared to punish himself and Lin Tian at once?Looking at Crawford with wide eyes, Jordan kept nodding. Lin Tian next to him said: "Michael, forget it, since this guy blew it, let's just leave the game. There is no need to argue in anger. There is no benefit in offending the referee." , and it is very likely that he will be additionally suspended.”
"What offends him? I'm afraid of a bald man? Additional suspension? Am I afraid of that?" Jordan immediately became furious and directed his attack at Lin Tian.
"Who are you calling bald? Aren't you bald yourself?" Crawford touched his bald head. Now he didn't want to endure it anymore, so he opened his mouth and sprayed it back.
For no other reason, he is just unhappy with you, Jordan, a bald man, complaining that he is bald!If it were Lin Tianpeng, he would admit it!
After all, the hair on Lin Tian’s head is thicker than the vegetation in the Amazon forest, so it’s enough to spray it, but your Jordan head is so smooth that even a mosquito would slip and fall over if he stood on it, so why should you say that? I?
"I'm just too lazy to trim it. If I wanted to grow my hair, my hair would grow all over my head in two weeks at most." Jordan's eyes widened and he continued: "What's more, suspended? I'll be beaten for fighting someone. You're banned for saying hello? I'll complain about you damn bald man when I get back!"
"Wait to be fined and suspended!" After Jordan said this, he no longer stayed on the court. After all, he had been expelled. If he continued to stay on the court, then maybe he would You will really be punished additionally.
On the way to leave, he didn't even look at Lin Tian again. Even though the two of them were on the same front just now, Jordan didn't even want to talk to Lin Tian.
Why is my All-Star starter gone?
Why can a certain Miller steal my All-Star starting spot?
No talking to you bastards!
When Jordan strode out of the court, Lin Tian had already received the system prompt again.
Unfortunately, it’s still experience!
I'm so angry today that I'm going to burst into rage. Why don't you give me something good to do?
Lin Tian felt that as he became stronger and stronger, the system became more and more stingy, and he had to add fuel to the fire to the bastard Jordan!
At this moment, the most angry person was not Jordan or Lin Tian, let alone Crawford, or even everyone at the United Center.
The most angry person is the person in charge of CBS sports programs. This guy was secretly delighted when he looked at the number of viewers climbing toward 2000 million just a few minutes ago!
What a wise decision!
For such a game that was decided to be broadcast at short notice and was warmed up only 30 minutes before the game, if it can get such a high viewership share, he is ready to write it directly into his future autobiography or memoirs, and every week in the next few months At every regular meeting, I would mention my witty behavior.
But now, this bastard Crawford actually punished Jordan and Lin Tian?
This damn bald man actually drove the two major guarantees of ratings for this game out of the stadium?
How dare he?
What was he thinking about riding a horse?
Are you out of your mind?
What to do with my ratings?What else are the spectators watching?
The CBS executive was so angry that he called Stern on the spot.
complaint!
Severe punishment!
ban!
Some things don't matter, but he will never tolerate this kind of thing, this kind of thing that ruins his job!
If the referees casually punish the stars and ratings protectors for such unwarranted reasons, then he will still broadcast crappy games in the future!
Before his call went out, someone called him first.
"I'm David." The caller was Stern, who responded equally quickly.
"Sorry, Crawford's call was really stupid!" Stern struck preemptively. Before you got angry, I took the initiative to apologize and admit my mistake, and my attitude was very good: "I will immediately organize a dispute between the referees. Training courses, give them a good training on issues of scale and whistleblowing standards."
"This situation will never happen again!"
Stern's anger at the moment is no better than anyone else's.
Such a good gimmick, such a good match, and the two of them in such great shape, it was like a 50+ showdown.
But the result?
You, Crawford, punished these two after just one game.
Then how can I sell tickets and build popularity?
In particular, this game is the last regular season meeting between the Bulls and Pacers!
Whether they can meet again this season and whether they can have another duel in the playoffs, no one can say for sure!
In a showdown of this level, you Crawford punished Jordan and Lin Tian by spanking each other a few times just because they made a joke?
It's just crazy!
It's not a pity to die!
Of course, Crawford didn't know that his willful whistle offended two big guys at the same time, and he was secretly proud of it.
I am just tough!No matter what Vitti or Bavetta, they are not as tough as me!
A referee must look like a referee!
Crawford never imagined that he was about to be in trouble.
Lin Tian had already walked to the Pacers' bench and said to his teammates: "Michael has been beaten by me, and the rest is up to you."
"You have to cheer up! You have to kill the Chicagoans!" Lin Tian clapped his hands and loudly encouraged his teammates who were in poor condition in the first quarter, hoping to get them back to form and win the game!
After the game, Lin Tianke had an important plan!A plan that will definitely make Jordan produce more blood and give him some good stuff.
But if we lose the game, the plan will not be implemented.
"Reggie! Without Michael's entanglement, you will definitely be able to outrun Steve Kerr who is facing you, and let them see what the league's number one shooter is! And you, Jaylen, don't have to continue to defend Michael, you All your energy can be used on offense!"
"Let them take a good look at what the new generation of best swingman in the East is capable of! Charles, you have to prove that you are still the MVP!"
Lin Tian patted his teammates on the shoulders one by one. He didn't want his plan to be unable to be implemented later because of his teammates' slackness and poor condition!
After encouraging a large group of people, Bird looked at Lin Tiandao: "You don't need to encourage me. You have already done all my work. You don't want to do the boss's work too, right?"
Lin Tian smiled and shrugged, patted Bird on the shoulder and said, "I'm waiting for your good news in the locker room."
After finishing speaking, Lin Tian walked towards the locker room.
And this time, when he left the game, the fans at the United Center finally booed intermittently.
After Lin Tian and Jordan left the arena one after another, the game between the two sides continued. Without their respective leaders, the scoring efficiency and shooting percentage of both sides dropped significantly.
Originally, Lin Tian believed that without Jordan, the Bulls would only have Pippen able to sustain the game, while the Pacers still had two first-class stars in Barkley and Miller, Rose, a rising star, and Dumars, Anji and other powerful veterans.
No matter how you look at it, in terms of paper strength, the Pacers are better. They should be able to control the situation of the game and quickly overtake the Bulls.
But what Lin Tian didn't expect was that the actual situation of the game was completely different from what he imagined!
Although the Bulls did not have Jordan, they relied on Pippen's excellent form and perfect performance. At the end of the second quarter, they not only withstood the Pacers' counterattack, always maintained the lead, and even further increased the point difference. The expansion!
55: 46!
At the end of the first half, the Bulls' lead reached 9 points!
After Jordan left the game, Pippen also scored perfect statistics of 17 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in just half a game. Coupled with the performance of Hubble, Longley, Kukoc and others, the Bulls can lead by 9 The first half ended with points, which can be considered normal.
At halftime, the entire Pacers team looked a little downcast when they walked into the locker room.
After all, after the opponent did not have the team leader, they still could not narrow the score and continued the previous gap. This was a big blow to the Pacers players.
Their lofty ideals seemed extremely funny at this time.
As a result, without Lin Tian, are we just a mid-range team with a winning rate of about 50% and can only strive to reach the playoffs?
This idea made the self-righteous and arrogant guys in the Pacers feel a huge sense of frustration.
Without Lin, would we be so good?
Lin Tian, who was waiting for his teammates in the locker room, saw that the team had no morale. He knew that if he didn't find a way to boost the morale of the players, there would be no need to play the second half of the game and he would just surrender. Bar.
"Charles, Reggie, come on, I have something to say to you two." Lin Tian waved his hand and called the two most frustrated and lifeless team bosses to his side: " Do you want to hear what plans I have in mind?"
"Plan?" Buckley was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Lin Tian was talking about.
"It's a plan to make Michael fly into a rage and be so angry that he can't eat or sleep for three days." Lin Tian chuckled and said, "I promise that if we can win the game, I have a way to make Michael so angry that he goes crazy!"
"Is there such a good thing?" Miller asked curiously.
"It's just a game. Even if Michael would be unhappy if he lost, he wouldn't be able to sleep for three days." As one of Jordan's best friends, Barkley also said that Jordan would not be angry because of losing a game. Even though this game is quite important, it also has quite extraordinary significance.
After all, Jordan is not that fragile!
"Normally, Michael would not be that stupid, nor would he take the outcome of a regular season game too seriously, even if he just lost his All-Star starting spot a few hours before this game. "
Lin Tian smiled and said: "But what if after this game is over, I go to the media to add fuel to the fire? What if I go to break some shocking news to the media?"
Lin Tian lowered his voice as he spoke, and whispered in the ears of Buckley and Miller.
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, Barkley and Miller's eyes lit up!The slump just now disappeared magically, and the two of them changed their faces so fast that even Lin Tian himself was amazed.
At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh: How many people has this bastard Jordan offended?
Why is it that when everyone hears that it can embarrass Jordan, they immediately feel like they come home from playing and see thirty naked women waiting to have a silver party together? One is excited, the other is crazy!
"Don't worry, Lin! Everything is left to me!" Barkley patted his chest and said, "Tonight I tried my best to win the Bulls! If Dennis dares to come against me, I will kill him." Beat him to death!"
"What Charles said is right. If I don't win today's game, will I still have the nerve to play in the league in the future? Even if I have to break my leg, I will win the game! Isn't it just 9 points behind? There is still half a game. Here! In the second half, we will kill them!"
Lin Tian was very reassured that the team's two most important main players, other than Lin Tian, expressed their opinions at the same time.
He believes that this game must be stable!
Unless Pippen transformed into Jordan and scored 4 or 50 points in the second half, the Bulls would definitely be gone tonight!
Lin Tian, who was so proud, did not notice that less than three meters away from where he and Miller Barkley were plotting, Rose, who had performed well in the first half and scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, was looking very unhappy. Over here.
He doesn't understand.
Obviously he performed best in the first half, why didn't Lin Tian talk to him for a few words?Why didn't this small group, which looked like they were having a war meeting, not call me?
What's the use of calling these two old guys and mumbling endlessly?
If these two old guys were useful, they would not have scored in double figures in the first half, nor would they have ended the first half with the Bulls leading by 9 points!
"Jalen Rose's mood fluctuated and dropped 50 experience points!"
Lin Tian had just finished discussing with Miller and Barkley when he received a prompt from the system.
He curiously looked over Miller's shoulder and saw Rose who looked dissatisfied, with three parts resentment, three parts jealousy and four parts displeasure.
This kid doesn't want to cause trouble.
Lin Tian muttered and stopped paying attention to why Rose suddenly gave himself 50 experience points. That was not what he needed to worry about now.
What he wants to think about now is how to stimulate Jordan after the game!
Soon, the intermission ended, and Lin Tian was once again the only one left in the Pacers' locker room.
Then, Lin Tian calmly found something to eat and drink, and then turned on the TV. Even if he couldn't play, he still had to watch it!
As soon as Lin Tian turned on the TV, he saw Barkley playing in the low post and attracting double teams, and then passed directly to Miller.
"Shh!"
After catching the ball, Miller didn't hesitate or be polite. He just picked it up and threw it, and hit a 3-pointer!
This 3-point goal was not only the first goal of the second half for both sides, but it also seemed to open up the Pacers' second line, and their crazy attack began!
Barkley hit hard in the low post, Miller hit another shot from outside the 3-point line, Schmitz hit a mid-range jumper, and Dumars, who started in place of Lin Tian, also rarely got to the basket for a layup.
In the first 3 minutes, the Pacers blasted a 12-0 wave, taking the lead directly in one fell swoop!
In this wave of offense, the Pacers only had Rose, who didn't even touch the ball, let alone contribute on the offensive end. Then, Rose, whose mentality was a little unbalanced, was beaten by Pippen on the neck. After a 2+1, the Bulls tied the score again!
But in any case, the two sides will be on the same starting line for the next game. Although Jordan and Lin Tian are gone, although CBS’s viewership has dropped from a peak of nearly 2000 million to 7-800 million, But this game is still exciting!
The score between the two sides was entangled until the last minute of the game. The Pacers had a 1-point lead. Then Pippen hit the basket and failed to hit the layup. Then Miller turned around and chased for a 1-pointer to widen the difference to 3 points. , almost killed the game.
Then Cole's desperate 3-pointer bounced out of the frame. Barkley grabbed the rebound and found Dumas, who was about to leave, to assist him for a layup, widening the point difference to 6 points!
At this time, there was less than 20 seconds left in the game.
As Jackson called the final timeout and Kukoc missed a 3-pointer after catching the ball, the Bulls lost this crucial game.
Lin Tian in the locker room had already raised his arms and started cheering when Dumas widened the point difference to 6 points. When the whistle officially ended the game, Lin Tian knew that it was time to perform by himself!
