Chapter 253 The Home Fight Against Tit for Tat Six

The second quarter of the game is coming to an end, and the Lakers still lead the Bulls by nine points. After some friction, the core players of the two teams started to compete again, but this situation is beneficial to the Lakers.

In the rest of the second quarter, Liu Han and Jordan began to explode each other. They were able to get rid of each other's entanglement with the help of their teammates, and then began a confrontation between technology and will in offense and defense. Among them, whoever relaxes first means failure. Liu Han's persecution made Jordan explode. He was also torn again and again.

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers still led by 59 points 50-9.

"If the first 8 minutes of the second quarter were the opening act of an opera, then the remaining 4 minutes are the climax of the opera, with two arguably the most powerful forwards in the league at the moment showing us all kinds of offense And defensive skills, I have to say that these two players have a perfect combination of physical fitness and football skills. Neither side can limit the performance of the other side very well, but I think Liu should have more advantages. After all, his age is much higher. Much younger than Jordan, to have such skills at such an age, one must admit that he is an out-and-out genius.” Reg Sagel did not forget to continue to praise Liu Han during the intermission.

"The current situation of the game is not good for the Bulls. Jordan and Liu Han formed a mutual explosion. Although the Bulls are slightly better than the Lakers in the starting lineup, the Lakers still have O'Neal inside, and the Lakers' substitutes also played better than the Lakers. The Bulls are even better, and their role players are much worse than those of the Lakers." The only commentator who can analyze the game from the overall perspective is Myrph Albert.

"You're right, Myrph. The Bulls' salary this season has reached $6133 million, of which Jordan's salary will exceed $3000 million. It's obvious what it means to a team. They don't There is no way to attract suitable role players, and the Bulls mean sitting on the bench for young players. Like Michael, he plays more than 40 minutes per game. It is difficult for the Bulls to cultivate suitable young players. On the contrary, the Lakers In terms of performance, he has done even better. Mr. Jerry West deserves to be the best manager. His vision is very unique. Needless to say, Liu Han is the soul of the 96-level draft and the most underrated MOP in the NCAA finals. , Kobe Bryant, who left the Lakers before, is also playing very well in the Nets, and these young people who joined the Lakers this season have very good potential." Isaiah Thomas's commentary this time is purely Cameo, his job is the executive vice chairman of the basketball department of the Toronto Raptors, responsible for the transfer and draft of the Raptors. In 95, the Raptors selected "Little Flying Mouse" Damon Stoudemire to be Isaiah Thomas handwriting.He analyzed the difference between the Bulls and the Lakers from the perspective of a manager. Only then did he completely vent his grievances with Jordan and attack the Bulls.

During the intermission, Phil Jackson decided that the Bulls must strengthen their offense in the second half. Now that the team is behind, and the defense can hardly limit the performance of the Lakers, we can only hope that the Bulls can have a better offense in the second half up.

After the start of the second half, Rodman was replaced again, and Toni Kukoc, who played poorly in the first quarter, played again.

The Lakers returned to the starting lineup again after the start of the second half, and Liu Han began to control the ball and control the rhythm of the game.

Just when everyone on the sidelines thought that Liu Han and Jordan would continue to stage a confrontation in the second half, the Lakers made a change. They began to attack inside. O'Neal frequently took the ball inside and attacked the basket when he had the opportunity. , There is no chance to pass to the outside to let the outside players shoot. Although the tactic is simple, it is very effective.

The change of the Lakers made the Bulls a little uncomfortable. The hurricane rush in the second quarter made the Bulls try to bring up the rhythm of the game at the beginning, but the Lakers suddenly slowed down. With Rodman's end, O'Neal dominated Inside, the rebounding Lakers began to regain control of the advantage.

In addition to continuing to entangle Jordan in defense, Liu Han focused more on organizing offense. A series of wonderful cooperation with O'Neal made the Bulls a little overwhelmed.

As the Bulls took the initiative to bring up the rhythm of the game, their shooting percentage has declined. The Bulls have never been a team that focuses on three-point shooting. If they want to make a name for themselves on the outside, they can only rely on Jordan and Pippen. Let's play, now Jordan is entangled by Liu Han, and Pippen is in a state of being alone.

Less than 5 minutes into the third quarter, the Lakers extended their lead to 14 points. Phil Jackson had no choice but to call a timeout again.

The Lakers often play a wave to take away their opponents in the third quarter. This is what the Bulls have paid special attention to before the game. They specially arranged defensive tactics to counter the strong offense of the Lakers in the third quarter. As a result, what Mayfair Jackson didn't expect was that the Lakers took the initiative to slow down their offensive speed in the third quarter today and began to play inside.

As the game progressed, these young people of the Lakers gradually found the feeling of the game, and many outside shooters were no longer nervous. In addition, the Lakers had an advantage inside, and the Bulls were bound to devote more attention to defense. And there is also Liu Han, a selfless point guard, on the court, so although the Bulls strengthened their offense in the third quarter, the gap in the score was still widened.

"I don't know if anyone has counted it. Is this the game that Phil Jackson took the initiative to call for the most timeouts? But judging from the current scene of the Bulls, they are indeed in trouble. In the first NBA Finals, he posed a difficult problem for Mayfair Jackson." Myrph Albert felt that the Lakers' tactical arrangement was very reasonable, and George Crent's tactical thinking was very good.

"Actually, the Lakers would like to thank Coach Del Harris who brought us the championship last season. Although he won the championship last season, he still decided to take a break. After that, he was like the management recommended Coach George. , Now it seems that his vision is very accurate. The tactics that George created for the Lakers are very satisfying to the fans and the management.” Magic Johnson has been trying to join the management of the Lakers. There should be no problem with his reputation. But the team's owner, Jerry Buss, seems to be preparing to let his sons and daughters join the Lakers' management.

"Good job, guys, they're going to be uncomfortable for a while, haha, Liu, after the game restarts, you need to increase your shots from the outside. The Bulls are likely to strengthen their defense against other players next, and Jordan will also make more shots. The focus is on the offense, so I need you to suppress them with three points, no problem?" George Crent first praised the players' performance during the timeout. In his opinion, these have not passed the finals The young players are not slow to adapt.

"No problem, George, he's a 'machine'." Before Liu Han could answer, O'Neal, who played well in the third quarter, answered first. It seemed that he had great confidence in Liu Han. The team's state is as good as O'Neal's mood.
