NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 224 The giant man-eating beast from the primitive forest!

In the second quarter of the game, the coaches of both sides did not choose to let all their main players continue to play. After all, everyone’s shooting rate tonight was low. A low shooting rate means that it is difficult to achieve climax and continuous scoring on the offensive end, which means that The fault tolerance rate is higher.

So at the beginning of the second quarter, Jordan, Lin Tian, ​​Miller, Rodman and others did not play.

The Pacers still use Barkley and Christie with the regular rotation of Big Ben, Dumars and Hoiberg.

The Bulls have a five-man regular rotation of Wennington, Kukoc, Pippen, Cole and Burrell.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Pacers didn't think much about it. They directly lobbed the ball to Barkley inside, hoping that he would make a strong hit. But after passing the ball, Dumas regretted it. He forgot to walk tonight. No one on the team was a shooting threat in the first quarter, so the Bulls' defense was so intensive! The shrinkage is an exaggeration!

The moment Barkley got the ball, three people rushed towards him, forming a double-team on him. Unfortunately, Barkley couldn't hold the basketball firmly, so he was slapped with several big slaps.

"Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!"

After a burst of noise, no one knew which hit was the ball and which hit the hand, but what they did know was that Barkley screamed and the basketball was broken by the Bulls!

The referee said: Since I don’t know who hit the hand this time, let’s talk about it next time! To avoid blowing it wrong, it will be embarrassing!

Pippen was holding the basketball and rushing all the way. Christie stood in front of him, trying to stop his advancement and fast break, while the others quickly recovered the basket!

During the break, Bird arranged a strategy for the players to shrink their defense. Outside the 3-point line, they can put it away appropriately! The point is not to let the Bulls break through and attack the basket!

Pippen glanced at the situation on the court, then made a quick choice and gave the ball to Cole, who had just followed up on the other side.

"Steve, vote!"

Cole, who did not appear in the first quarter, got the basketball. There was not a Pacers player 3 meters in front of him. How could Cole, who has always been extremely tough, let go of this opportunity? After taking aim for a moment, the 3-pointer was taken decisively!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the first 3-pointer of the night appeared!

"Nice shot Steve!"

Pippen rushed over excitedly and gave Cole a high-five!

The significance of this 3-pointer is much more important than adding 3 points to the top of the scoreboard!

A 3-pointer is scored, and a series of three-pointers may follow!

The Pacers' defense will inevitably change because of this!

"Joe, follow Cole, don't let him shoot open shots again!" Bird stood up and shouted to the players on the court from the sidelines.

It’s just a 3-pointer. Cole was originally the most accurate point for the Bulls. However, since the playoffs, although his 3-point shooting rate exceeded 45%, he averaged less than 2 3-pointers per game. He scored one , completely within the acceptable range! There is no need to drastically change today’s defensive strategy!

But what Bird didn't expect was that Cole's 3-pointer was like turning on some switch. The Bulls' feel came back all of a sudden. In less than 3 minutes, Pippen and Kukoc scored. Everyone scored a 3-pointer! Then Pippen took advantage of the fact that after he hit a 3-pointer, the Pacers players guarded him even more fiercely. He actually made a fake shot and went inside for a dunk to score another 2 points!

The Bulls suddenly found their offensive feel in the first half of the second quarter and scored 3 points in 11 minutes! As for the Pacers, Christie still continues his extremely poor touch in this series. In the eyes of the Bulls, his offensive threat is almost not as good as Ben's!

As long as Barkley gets the ball in the paint, he will immediately be double-teamed by at least two people!

In 3 minutes, the Pacers only relied on tip-ups and a mid-range shot by Dumas to score 4 points!

Bird quickly called a timeout, not daring to let this situation continue, and quickly replaced Lin Tian, ​​Miller and others to let them come on to stabilize the situation!

With the appearance of the main players, the Pacers did stabilize the situation and did not allow the Bulls to continue to score easily. However, the Bulls' scoring momentum was suppressed, and the Pacers still struggled to find their own offensive status. Not even there!

In this quarter, Christie, Lin Tian, ​​Dumars, and Miller shot 4-for-3 from the 6-point line, with no results! The Pacers did not hit even a 0-pointer throughout the first half.

Although the Bulls only hit 3, those 3 were in a row! The Bulls successfully hit a climax and took the lead!

But in addition to these 11 points, the Bulls only scored 9 more points in the remaining 6 minutes of the second quarter.

They scored a total of 17 points in this quarter!

Although it’s not much, it’s enough!

Because the Pacers only scored a total of 12 points in this quarter!

Their hit rate is still completely unrecoverable!

37: 31!

At the end of the first half, the Bulls still managed to gain a 6-point lead!

Although it's not much, judging from the scoring efficiency and offensive feel of both sides in the first half, the psychological pressure these 6 points put on the players is definitely huge!

For example, in the last game, the Bulls were more than 10 points behind, but it felt like that was all, and they could make it back in minutes!

But in this game, just these 6 points, I'm afraid it will take half a quarter to get them!

中场休息的时候，林天虽然拿到7分10篮板4助攻3抢断2盖帽的全面数据，但他的投篮命中率只有10投3中，3秒区之外的空间里，他是一个球都没能投进！

好在乔丹也一样是11投3中，只拿到8分9篮板2助攻2抢断2盖帽，显得林天的表现并没有那么的拉跨！

In addition to Jordan and Lin Tian, ​​the Pacers' Barkley scored 6 points and 15 rebounds, Miller had 4 points, Schmitz had 4 points, Ben had 1 point and 7 rebounds, Christie had 2 points, and Dumars had 4 points.

For the Bulls, Pippen scored a team-high 9 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. Rodman had already grabbed 17 rebounds. Kerr and Kukoc scored 5 points each, becoming tonight's surprise players. Three-pointers are the most direct reason why the Bulls can take the lead!

During the halftime break, Bird stood in the middle of the locker room. As usual, he did not lay out any tactics. Instead, he kept encouraging the players, asking them to defend harder and follow their opponents closer! After all, the point difference is only 6 points. As long as the Pacers perform normal offensive performance, it only takes 1 minute!

But the question is, can the Pacers still find a normal feeling tonight?

"Don't be too obsessed with shooting! But you must shoot directly if you have the opportunity!" Bird said helplessly something that sounded very ridiculous and contradictory. After saying it, he shook his head, and then continued: "Anyway , stabilize your mentality, stay confident, and then find a way to play the game we are best at!"

"Lin, in the second half of the game you..."

"I will kill them all!" After playing what was probably the worst first half since becoming famous, Lin Tian's eyes were filled with cold light! In the first half of the game, he was frustrated. It wasn't that the Bulls defended well, but he just couldn't make the shot!

"I'll beat the Bulls to pieces one ball at a time! Leave it to me, Larry!"

Lin Tian's statement made Bird stunned for a moment. He actually didn't mean it like this. He hoped that Lin Tian could stabilize the situation, look for fast break opportunities, and use faster speed and more offensive and defensive transitions to recover. The Pacers play at their own pace.

But now...well, that's pretty much it.

But when Bird couldn't help but look at Lin Tian, ​​he noticed his eyes.

Full of murderous intent, even though Bird himself was the best and top player in the league when he was playing, and in the 80s, he was a villain, a bastard and a vicious monster, but he was still Lin Tian was shocked by this look.

Compared with the look in Lin Tian's eyes at this time, Bird had faced off against the 'clothes pole' Laimbeer, the 'King of Villains' Ma Hong, the 'King of New York Villains' Anthony Mason Jr., and the 'Brain Assassin' Washington. The villains are really nothing compared to Lin Tian at this moment!

At least, Bird is not afraid of those guys at all, but now, he is really frightened by Lin Tian. It is a kind of murderous intention that is directly transmitted to the soul!

It was the kind of murderous aura that could only be exuded by the most ferocious and brutal carnivorous beasts in the most dangerous primeval forests.

"Smith, when do you think the Pacers will break their embarrassment of 3 0-pointers?" Marcus and Smith chatted again while waiting for the start of the second half.

"In short, the sooner the better! Compared to the Bulls, the Pacers are a team that relies more on offense and shooting. If they can't find the feeling in shooting, then the Pacers will be in trouble tonight! The later they find it, The more you feel and hit the shots, the better the Bulls’ chance of winning!”

Smith looked at the technical statistics in his hand and said: "In short, if the win-loss ratio between the two teams before this game starts is 5.5:4.5, and the Bulls only have a slight advantage, after the first half, I think the situation on the court is already 6:4!"

"Although the Bulls don't lead by much, the game is indeed the rhythm they prefer and the style they are better at! Can't the Bulls score? No problem! They have many examples of relying on defense to win the game, but the Pacers' shooting Not scoring? That’s really bad! The core of all their tactics and results is offense and shooting!”

Marcus continued: "The jump shooting team cannot win the championship! If this year's Pacers, a shooting team that has taken their shooting to the extreme and is even one level ahead of other teams in the league today, cannot surpass the Bulls, I think This statement will become true and no one will question it anymore.”

If they can't find the touch, are the Pacers really doomed?

At least, that's what the fans, commentators, and other players watching the game think. They all believe that the Pacers' top priority is to regain their shooting touch first! Even if the whole team doesn't regain the feeling, at least one of Lin Tian, ​​Miller, Christie, and Dumars starts hitting 3-pointers, which can save the team!

Lin Tian doesn't know about these doubts and disapproval from the outside world, but he actually knows very well what the outside world thinks and discusses about him and the Pacers.

Jump shots cannot win the championship. Scoring inside and from mid-range is king. After all, 3-pointers are just leftovers. The Pacers' lineup is too deformed and lacks a real big man's human shield...

Lin Tian didn't need to think about or listen to these questions. He could just guess at anything.

Of course, Lin Tian knows better that the best way to respond to these doubts is to win the tiebreaker and advance to the finals!

There’s no better way to respond than this!

So, in the first attack of the second half of the game, Lin Tian gave his attitude!

And it doesn't rely on shooting at all.

3 0-pointers in the half? Can’t the team score a goal if they don’t have the touch?

Is it difficult to find the feel?

If it’s difficult to do, then don’t do it!

I won’t vote anymore!

Lin Tian faces Hubble at the top of the arc. In front of him, in addition to Hubble, there is a vast but almost completely empty mid-range area, as well as a 4-second area under the basket where four people are already standing.

Today's Bulls defense is so extreme! At least until the Pacers find their way, they will never change their defensive strategy.

Lin Tian kept dribbling the basketball, and then once again used the old method of dealing with Hubble.

Don’t do anything extra, just speed up!

"FUXX!" Lin Tian heard clearly that Hubble cursed, because Hubble had been defeated by Lin Tian's simple move countless times in this series!

But he just has no choice. The speed difference is too far, and the basic skills and footsteps on the defensive end are far inferior to Jordan. There is no way to make up for the absolute gap in speed.

But fortunately, Hubble also knows that Lin Tian has no shooting touch at all tonight. Even if he makes a mid-range jumper, he has no confidence. If he rushes to the basket...

He can charge whatever he wants!

Didn’t you see that meetings can be held even if there are many people in the 3-second zone?

But Lin Tian seemed to not be able to see how many people were in the 3-second zone. He just rushed forward and rushed towards the basket!

Langley and Rodman immediately stood under the basket, one on the left and one on the right, blocking the basket tightly, almost airtight!

But Lin Tian just rushed over, but there was no emergency stop, no rhythm changes or fake moves.

Then, Lin Tian rose from the ground and flew towards Langley!

"Oh!"

There was a muffled sound, and Lin Tian and Langley collided completely in the air. Then Lin Tian held the basketball with one hand, used all his strength, and smashed the ball into the basket through Langley!

"boom!"

After the explosion, Longley took three or four steps back helplessly. The only thing he could do was to prevent himself from sitting on the ground and being dunked over.

But that's about it.

Lin Tian's head-to-head dunk will definitely make this round a famous scene and a poster that will be hung on the walls of countless people.

As for whether Longley fell to the ground or not, it doesn't matter at all!

After landing, Lin Tian did not talk trash, show off his muscles, or do any celebrations. Instead, he tightened his face, bared his teeth, and stared at Langley with fierce eyes.

Lin Tian's look made Langley couldn't help but take another step back.

Even though this is a stadium, even though Longley is surrounded by more than a dozen teammates and 2 fans who support him, Longley still feels like he is in the primeval forest of Australia!

Lin Tian's eyes reminded Langley of the feeling he had when he went to the zoo in fourth grade and looked at the tiger through the glass.

Wild and murderous! Full of beastly scent!

Langley swallowed, and forcibly dispelled the thought in his mind that he wanted to turn around and run away. Then he turned around and used the matter of finding the ball to avoid the extremely terrifying thing of continuing to look at Lin Tian. thing, and at the same time Langley also realized another thing——

He and Lin Tian have been teammates for two years, but it seems that Langley just met Lin Tian for the first time today.

Too scary!

In the Bulls' offense, Jordan continued to ask for the ball in the low post. The Pacers' defensive strategy was very similar to that of the Bulls. The moment Jordan got the ball, Christie rushed towards Jordan. They wanted to double-team him immediately!

It's not just the Pacers who can't score tonight, the Bulls can't score either! So the Pacers' defense, like the Bulls', wants to shrink to within the 3-second zone!

Facing a double team, Jordan quickly distributed the ball and found Hubble on the outside. Hubble took the ball and faked a shot to shake the rushing Miller. Then he quickly broke through with the ball and went straight into the inside. He also wanted to End the offense with a layup.

"Snapped!"

In the first half, it was Barkley who showed an unparalleled defensive attitude, but in the second half, it was the Dutchman Schmitz's turn!

He blocked Hubble's layup again and quickly shot the ball to Lin Tian. When Lin Tian got the basketball, he didn't think or observe at all. Instead, he lowered his center of gravity and went crazy towards the frontcourt. Galloping forward!

In the first half today, he played too rationally! The rational result is that the Pacers' fast break score in the first half was actually 0!

Now, it’s time to stop being so rational.

The Bulls' retreat was obviously a result of targeted special training. Jordan and Hubble took the lead in blocking Lin Tian and slowing him down as much as possible. Pippen was in the center to provide support and observe the actions of the rest of the Pacers. Running position, ready to check for leaks and fill in gaps at any time, Rodman and Longley quickly ran towards the basket, preparing to protect the basket.

Lin Tian's speed was indeed slowed down a lot by the double-teaming of Jordan and Hubble. By the time he rushed to the frontcourt, all five Bulls players had returned to their defensive positions, and at this moment the Pacers No one has rushed into the Bulls' paint yet.

Normally, Lin Tian should slow down no matter what and steadily attack from a position.

But Lin Tian had no intention of stopping. He just paused slightly outside the 3-point line, giving Jordan and Hubble the illusion that he was going to stabilize his organization. Then his speed exploded again, and the basketball was dribbled to the right. , forcing a breakthrough from Jordan!

Then at the moment when Jordan and Hubble's defense moved to the right, Lin Tian changed direction again and came to the left. Hubble, who had just moved to the right, was not as quick as Jordan and Pippen in terms of their tacit understanding and defensive ability. Not as strong as these two people.

Not only did he fail to keep up and react quickly, he also provided a 'cover' for Lin Tian, ​​blocking Jordan's pursuit of Lin Tian.

"FUXX!" Jordan roared angrily, but it was of no avail. He could no longer keep up with Lin Tian and could only watch Lin Tian rush into the inside line!

It's still Longley and Rodman, still moving forward fearlessly, just like Zhao Zilong charging into the formation on Changban Slope, killing Lin Tian on the inside!

The three people jumped up almost at the same time. Rodman and Longley raised their four long arms high, completely sealing the distance between the entire basket and Lin Tian, ​​which was absolutely blocking the sky. !

But this time, Lin Tian did not choose to force a head-on confrontation with the two. Instead, before he jumped to the highest point, the basketball in his hand was suddenly thrown high, drawing a perfect parabola that passed through the tops of their fingers.

"Boom!"

Although this almost perfect arc of the throw escaped the block, it still failed to score. The feel tonight was really very bad!

But he had a premonition that he might miss the throw. As soon as he landed after taking the shot, Lin Tian had already dodged and inserted himself between Rodman and Longley, and then quickly took off again, his fingers just popping out of the rim. A slight tap on the basketball. This time, the basketball finally hits the hoop!

"Backboard! Backboard! Backboard!" Jackson suddenly stood up from the bench and shouted at Rodman and Longley: "Stuck! What are you two doing? Are you embarrassed to attack your former teammates? Are you kidding me? Their elbows are raised when they step on the horse!"

"Fuck Lin to death! If Lin rushes in again, kill him!" Jackson, who was elegant and calm, could no longer sit still. Not only was he full of swear words, but he also stood up from the bench. It is extremely rare to stand on the sidelines and give orders to the players.

The determination and ferocity shown by Lin Tian in these two attacks really made Jackson feel some bad feelings in his heart!

Then the Bulls finally scored their first goal of the second half. After Jordan also missed a mid-range jumper, Longley grabbed the rebound and tipped the ball in for 2 points.

After Longley scored, Jordan quickly yelled: "Lin! I'll follow Lin! Others are optimistic about their own people! Hurry!"

Jordan thought that the Pacers would definitely continue to force counterattacks and use fast-paced offensive and defensive transitions, but he really didn't expect it to be so fast!

And this time it was not Lin Tianlai who promoted it!

Christie!

This guy, who had not shown any shooting threat in the entire series and had completely degenerated into an ice shooter, took advantage of the Bulls' lack of tight defense against him, received the baseline ball, and then quickly started to advance!

It wasn't until he ran outside the 3-point line that Pippen finally caught up with Lin Tian from the side.

"Doug!" Before Christie had time to observe the situation, a very familiar voice came from beside her.

The tacit understanding developed over the past few months made Christie not observe the specific form at all. His trust in Lin Tian allowed him to pass the ball directly over there.

After the basketball hit the floor, Lin Tian grabbed the basketball with both hands, and then accelerated again. In one step, he left behind his Hubble, who had been following him just now, and rushed inside again!

Rodman, who had been beaten twice by Lin Tian, ​​had already begun to take advantage of him. Even if protecting the basket was not Rodman's forte, he would not allow someone to chase him and keep beating him.

"Come on, Lin! If you're not afraid of death, come on, Lin!" Rodman's eyes flashed fiercely: "Let's see if I'm serious about following you!"

Lin Tian seemed not to hear Rodman's threat at all. He didn't take it to heart at all, but continued to attack towards the basket!

Seeing that Lin Tian was about to rush to the basket, he collected the ball with both hands and suddenly swung in the direction of Schmitz, who was missed on the left. Longley, who was highly nervous, immediately moved a step there, but Lin Tian then He took back the basketball in his hand and rushed toward the basket again!

Longley, who was shaken away, had no time to return to the defensive position, and Rodman was the only one left under the basket, baring his teeth!

Lin Tian rushed towards the space provided by Longley. After jumping towards Rodman, Lin Tian turned around in the air and turned sideways towards Rodman and the basket, using his body to knock Rodman away. Block it, and at the same time reach out to the other side of the basket with both hands, draw an arc in the air, and then want to end the round with a layup.

Rodman would definitely not be able to touch this ball unless his wingspan could reach 3 meters!

But just when Lin Tian felt that this ball was a sure shot, a huge force suddenly came from behind him, and then his body inevitably lost its center of gravity and fell towards the ground!

Before his body completely lost his balance, Lin Tian hugged the basketball that was almost out of hand again, then quickly readjusted his posture, used his feel to find the basket, and threw the basketball in the direction of the basket.

"Shh!"

There was a crisp sound, and the basketball fell into the basket accurately as if it had eyes!

"Oh!"

Then there was a muffled sound, and Lin Tian, ​​who lost his center of gravity, almost hit the floor hard, and the fall was so painful!

"FUXX!" Barkley, who was nearest, yelled angrily, his eyes turned red, and he rushed towards Rodman: "Damn bug, are you looking for death!"

"Charles!" Lin Tian, ​​who was lying on the floor, yelled: "Calm down! You have a technical foul!"

Lin Tian's words seemed to have some kind of magic spell, causing Barkley to suddenly stop in his tracks, but he was still aggressive and staring at Rodman with a fierce look in his eyes.

"The thug fouled, 2 points are valid, and 1 free throw is added!" Salvador quickly blew the whistle and gave Rodman a common foul.

"Thugs' foul? Thugs' foul?" Even Miller couldn't bear it this time. He opened his eyes wide and spat, "Did your eyes eat shit? Or did Dennis lick you until you separated in bed last night? Is this Is it a common foul for you to step on the ball?"

"My grandma knows, this is a damn flagrant foul! Flagrant foul!"

"Shut up Reggie!" Salvador looked at Miller and said: "If it were another game, I would definitely give you a technical foul immediately! But even now, I won't give you too many opportunities, shut up immediately Mouth!"

"Reggie!" Lin Tian had already climbed up from the floor. He seemed to have fallen very hard just now, but in fact, Lin Tian adjusted his posture before landing, and did a very good job of protecting himself when he landed. In place, he actually had nothing wrong with him.

So, he stood up immediately. At this time of the game, the Pacers cannot lack anyone from Miller or Barkley!

"So what you mean." Lin Tian turned to look at Salvador and said: "We can also defend in this way next, right? Can we knock people down directly in the air and only get a common foul?"

Even an experienced man like Salvador was speechless by Lin Tian's question and didn't know how to answer.

This ball, from any angle, is an absolute flagrant foul!

But Rodman already had a technical foul before. He couldn't blow Rodman off at this time. This was not in line with the requirements of Stern and the league.

"You'd better be careful!" Salvador hesitated for a long time. After all, he knew that his penalty was not correct. In addition, the three guys in front of him were more senior than the other. In addition to saying a harsh word, He really couldn't say anything else.

"You'd better be careful." Lin Tian shrugged and said to Salvador: "We all just hope that the situation will be stable and the game can continue without any violence or other unpleasant scenes on the court, right?"

"Are you threatening me?" Salvador's eyes widened. He had never been threatened by a player in his life!

"I'm just reminding you." Lin Tian said in a cold tone: "A very kind reminder, you must know what criminal record I have, right? I don't want to be suspended, and I believe you don't want to suspend me either."

"I can understand your desire to keep star players on the court, but you'd better understand that my anger can't be suppressed at all times, and I can't stay calm at all times."

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he didn't wait for Salvador's response. Instead, he turned around and pulled Barkley and Miller to the free throw line.

"We don't stir up trouble, we just fight the Bulls and Michael to death!" After saying that, Lin Tian patted Miller and Barkley on the shoulders, turned to look at Schmitz and Christie and said, "All of us are the same. , aboveboard, kill them! Reach the finals!"

"Yes! Kill them!" The remaining four Pacers roared together, then took their positions and prepared to shoot free throws.

"Lin, I..." Jordan came over and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he only said two words, then shook his head and walked towards the Pacers' half.

They are enemies, and he wants to support Rodman!

If there is, I can say what I want to say, but I cannot say it.

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, Lin Tian's extra penalty was also hit!

Then, influenced by Rodman's flagrant foul and Lin Tian's words about killing Chicagoans, the Pacers' defensive confrontation and defensive intensity once again rose to a new level. Everyone showed Rodman's former Two games of that defensive attitude against Barkley.

Everyone on the Pacers is eager to bump the elbows of Bulls players with their heads, and is willing to confront players who dare to fight the Bulls.

If just now Lin Tian was the only one on the Pacers who looked like a violent behemoth, now, everyone on the Pacers is a ferocious behemoth from ancient times!

This sudden defensive intensity made the Bulls completely unable to react. In this round, they were directly prevented from a 24-second offensive violation by the Pacers!

Then, Lin Tian dribbled to the frontcourt again.

"I am still preparing to break through this goal!" Facing Jordan who finally started to face off against him, Lin Tian said in a calm voice: "Then I will continue to charge at Dennis! Do you want to tell him to be careful?"

"You want to scare us with this?" Jordan opened his hands and stared at Lin Tiandao: "Have you forgotten that we are not afraid of anything?"

"Isn't it because I was here before and you weren't afraid of fighting with anyone? Now, you don't have me anymore!" After Lin Tian finished saying this, he stopped talking to Jordan because Schmitz's cover was already there. He lifted it up and blocked Jordan's side.

Lin Tian did not choose to break through from the direction covered by Schmitz. Instead, he changed direction and accelerated, and instead forced a breakthrough from the other side!

Jordan, who originally wanted to bypass the screen, failed to react in time, and Schmitz also pulled his arm, so Jordan was beaten cleanly by Lin Tian again!

Lin Tian didn't pay attention to Jordan, and his target was not Jordan!

Dennis Rodman!

You disregarded the feelings of your former teammates and did something evil to me, right?

Then I will beat you down!

"Charles, get out of the way!" Lin Tian yelled, asking Barkley, who was originally under the basket, to give him a gap, and then rushed towards Rodman with great ferocity!

A fool like Rodman has never been afraid of him in the NBA! He took a step sideways and stood in front of Lin Tian. He stood firmly on the ground with both feet and then remained motionless!

In this round, he changed his strategy and wanted to cause Lin Tian to commit an offensive foul!

"Oh!"

There was a violent muffled sound, and Lin Tian and Rodman collided head-on!

For this ball, Lin Tian definitely had enough space and ability to use a European step, a jump step and other technical moves to get past Rodman and score easily, but he didn't.

No need! It’s a head-on confrontation!

Barkley next to him could not help but gasp at this moment. Listening to the sound, he was even worried that some of Rodman's ribs would be broken by Lin Tian!

Rodman didn't even let out a scream. He fell backwards and flew out of the baseline.

But Lin Tian seemed to be completely unaffected. He raised his hand and made an easy underhand layup, hitting 2 points!

Then, Lin Tian turned his head and looked at Salvador, who was standing on the baseline.

"Blocking foul! 2 points valid, plus one free throw!"

El Salvador didn't know whether he wanted to regain the balance of not expelling Rodman in the last round, or he was a little scared by Lin Tian's glare. No matter how you look at it, this round was more like an offensive foul. He called Rodman's call. block.

After landing, Lin Tian didn't say much and walked to the free throw line again.

The reason why he charged so resolutely and fiercely for this ball was that, in addition to showing his toughness, the most important reason was because he knew that El Salvador would definitely give him a favorable whistle in this round!

This is the NBA arena, not just about fouls or not, but also about human nature.

The flagrant foul just now became a common foul, and now the offensive foul became a blocking foul. Rodman didn't say much. He was also very aware of these balance whistles.

"Shh!"

As Lin Tian made another free throw, the Pacers finally overtook the score! Relying on Lin Tian's continuous impact and crazy style of play, they did not even try to see if their touch was back in the third quarter. Instead, they used continuous impact play to successfully overtake the score!

Lin Tian's frightening style of play and this almost bloodthirsty crazy attitude not only allowed the Pacers to overtake the score, but also made everyone in the team play fiercely. Regardless of offense or defense, the Pacers are now They are almost risking their lives!

Their intensity is completely unsuitable for appearing on the basketball court. Even if you put them on the football field, their confrontation will seem a bit too fierce.

Relying on such a fierce gangster temperament, even if the Pacers still failed to find their own touch in the third quarter, their shooting percentage was still not high.

Lin Tian completely took over the team's offense in this quarter. He kept breaking through, constantly causing damage, hitting the inside again and again, and then throwing himself into the air, and then looking for confrontation and the basket.

This constant impact style of play, as the game progressed and the Bulls became more determined to shrink their tactics, the fouls became more and more severe, and the efficiency began to decline.

Although Lin Tian started to score continuously in this quarter, his overall shooting rate was still not high, only 14 of 5 from the field. However, with his excellent performance of 7 of 7 from the free throw line, Lin Tian still scored in this quarter. 17 points and 5 rebounds, 3 of which were offensive rebounds!

Although except for Lin Tian, ​​the rest of the Pacers only scored 7 points in total, but this is enough!

Because the Bulls only scored 12 points in this quarter.

No matter it is Jordan, Pippen or Kukoc, in the face of the Pacers' crazy and fierce play style, they can't guarantee their shooting percentage at all. They can only make mistakes and make mistakes again and again, and then return without success on the offensive end. .

When the third quarter ended, the score between the two sides had been successfully reversed. The Pacers won by 12 points in this quarter, leading the Bulls by 6 points!

49: 55!

When the two sides entered a timeout, Lin Tian almost sat on the bench and kept breathing.

No matter how full of physical strength he has, no matter how S+ he is, in the third quarter he has a style of play where he puts the team on his shoulders, sprinting at full speed and colliding violently, and finally manages to take a shot again and again under the close defense of his opponent. , it still cost Lin Tian a huge amount of money!

In fact, this style of play is actually the most energy-consuming of all the styles of play, the one that can quickly tire players out and drain them of energy.

Lin Tian, ​​on the other hand, spent almost the entire quarter playing with the self-destructing truck style of play that consumes the most energy!

He successfully allowed the Pacers to overtake the score, but it also made his physical strength, which almost never has problems, a bit overdrawn.

"It's impossible for Lin to play like that throughout the second half! He is also a human being! There will definitely be problems with his physical strength!" Jackson foamed at the mouth. His previous elegance had completely disappeared. He clapped his hands and said: "Continue Our defensive strategy! Keep going, we can win, this is Chicago!"

"No one can win the tiebreaker here! The three consecutive championships belong to us!"

"Michael, haven't you had enough rest? Are you just going to watch Lin beat the shit out of us all by himself?"

"Don't say that to me Phil. I don't need this." Jordan wiped the sweat off his head with a towel and said calmly: "The only ones who can win the game tonight will be us!"
