Chapter 478 A crushing defeat

Jordan's 'Three Idiots' and Li Shengli's 'Four Kneeling Fights'?

The voices of the two kings are not small, but both the Bulls and the Mavericks are very powerful at the same time, but the Bulls are on the sidelines... Pippen, who was on the bench, sat next to Phil Jackson, looked at Jordan, and Looked at Li Shengli.

"Coach, I shouldn't be among the four people Li mentioned... I shouldn't be there, right?"

"What do you think?" Phil Jackson glanced at Pippen, annoyed.

"I said no, I didn't even play, and this kid has a good relationship with me, he won't..."

"Well, I really appreciate your cheerfulness and self-comfort!" Phil Jackson looked more and more at Pippen and became more and more angry. "Okay, your hand feeling is not good today, otherwise the Mavericks would not even be qualified to breathe in front of us."

"Hey, can you blame me? It's normal for the feel to fluctuate. Anyway, the Mavericks will lose no matter what they fight. Look at Kukoc and Cole. Someone will always have the feel." Pippen shook his hands. The towel on it looks like a fool, but this relaxed look is indeed terrifyingly confident.

"Yeah, the game has never been so easy. This quarter is the time to say goodbye to the Mavericks. Rodman is so easy to use. You should treat him better in the future." Phil Jackson just glanced at the field However, the direction of the next game is already clear, because Jordan has indeed brought people to implement his arrangement.

……

Bulls attack.

Substitute point guard Cole advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. After handing over to Jordan, Rodman made a high cover, and Jordan stepped aside. At this time, the Mavericks' double-team team rushed up. Nate ran to the edge of the penalty area on the right, Sely was also actively running inside, and the Bulls' positions... Sely + Kukoc on the left, Rodman + Cole on the right.

"The pass, Jordan passed to Rodman."

"Okay, it looks like Rodman is about to make a shot. Garnett rushed at him. The speed is really fast."

"No, there was a leak in the back. The Mavericks' double-teamers couldn't catch up. Rodman passed the pass to Cole. It was Cole who made the three-pointer."

In the live broadcast room, the three hosts of CCTV saw that they were worried, and the effect of the Bulls' attack was really good. Cole was originally on the three-point line, but no one around him could guard him, so he simply retreated to the three-point line and shot. Three points with one hand.

Swish!

The Bulls scored three points.

"This situation is no longer good. If Cole really wants to make a long-range shot at this point, the Mavericks' defense will not be able to press the bottom corner at all."

"Either give up double-teaming Jordan, but the problem of releasing Jordan is even bigger, or give up the defense of the corners on both sides, but Li Shengli and Garnett have played for two quarters, and the short-distance speed is not as fast as before, but this Corla It's still far away."

"It's not just Cole, look at Kukoc on the left, if the pass was from Sely just now, and Sely then turns to Kukoc, Kukoc's position is the same as Cole's position this time, no one can interfere at all Whether they get in or not depends on how they feel."

"This... Mavericks are hard to beat."

……

The clues can be seen in one round of offense. Phil Jackson’s main rotation point is the pitchers on both sides. As long as one of Kukoc and Cole can reach the regular touch, it is enough to be fatal. If both of them are hot, The calf really didn't even have the right to breathe.

Just as the three guessed, the bull's routine is still simple and crude.

Jordan was double-teamed, and it was still a bit difficult to pass directly to teammates on both sides, but from the center to the side, let Sely and Rodman in the center first pull Li Shengli and Garnett over, and then pass back to the side. In the bottom corner, this effect is even better than the direct pass. Kukoc's touch is not so good, but the terrible thing is... Cole is like taking an aphrodisiac, and he keeps shooting.

The entire third quarter.

For the Bulls, Jordan's shots were compressed again, and most of the reduced shots were transferred to Cole, who felt hot. The rhythm took off, and Li Shengli and Garnett were so exhausted that they almost ran a marathon, and their physical energy was exhausted.

As for the calf...

Although Kidd's organization can occasionally send out wonderful passes and assists, most of the time Li Shengli is used as the starting point of the attack. When Sely resists first and Rodman cooperates with double-teaming, the effect of Li Shengli's strong play is not outstanding. But the connection with Garnett was cut off by the Bulls. In many cases, Kidd could only run to receive the pass and transfer it to Curry on the outside, and Curry's shot against Jordan... the result was not good. good.

To be honest, this situation happened to the Mavericks in the second quarter.

It's just that the Bulls didn't feel good in the second quarter, which allowed the Mavericks to take a 6-point lead in a single quarter. After Phil Jackson made a substitution, the Bulls took off immediately in the third quarter, and they couldn't hold back.

……

27: 35!

In the third quarter, the Mavericks' rhythm broke down. They were beaten by 8 points in a single quarter and fell behind by 6 points in the total score.

Jordan's data is 29 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists, which is not amazing, but the role of high positions in attracting double teams is irreplaceable.

Li Shengli's data is 39 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 blocks. Sely and Rodman did play on their knees, but the problem is...Li Shengli's shot ratio is too high, Sely's physical fitness and fouls are too sufficient, and he gave Li Shengli four free throws for fouls in one quarter, plus a shoulder injury The resulting hits dropped, and 39 of 8 free throws were made.

……

Being behind by 6 points doesn't seem like much, but the situation turned around in the third quarter, and Li Shengli felt a deep sense of powerlessness and despair in the third quarter, and Li Shengli felt a deep sense of powerlessness and despair. Essentially...it's the difference in hard power between the two teams.

Fight again in the fourth quarter.

The Bulls have already entered into a frenzied offensive rhythm. The Mavericks double-teaming team slowed down the speed of double-teaming Jordan because they were afraid of the corners on both sides. What can be seen is... Jordan has become a game bug again. Yang's hit was astonishing, and after the Mavericks' double-teaming became decisive again, Cole and Kukoc, two temporary shooters, also became brave immediately.

In contrast to the Mavericks.

Li Shengli seems to be struggling, because Phil Jackson's substitutions at the center position are too casual, and regardless of whether the confrontation ability is high enough, the only threshold requirement is a sufficient number of fouls, so even if Li Shengli crushed the Bulls' inside line, it will not work. , If you want to shoot at the basket, you will be actively fouled... Even if you hold your breath and concentrate on improving some free throws, it is far from the efficiency of stably scoring at the basket.

……

Until the last 3 minutes of the final quarter.

The Mavericks were completely defeated. It was just Cole. Since the second half, he has achieved an amazing efficiency of 6 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 2 two-pointers. This is not counting the shots of Kukoc and Jordan. The Bulls led by 8 points in the third quarter, and the last quarter was even more exaggerated...the Bulls have led by 12 points so far in the single quarter, plus the previous lead in the total score, the total lead is 18 points.

The Bulls attacked, and Jordan took a step-back jumper, leading by 18 points. The shot was extremely random, but the more casual the shot, the more he could hit. After hitting the net, he maintained a shooting posture and shouted to Li Shengli inside, "Li, how can you still hit the ball?" Do you want to play, we are all ahead by 20 points?"

Leading by 20 points?

Why did it suddenly collapse?

Since the downfall in the second half, Li Shengli's stiff face has not been better. Although he doesn't want to admit it, the facts have proved that this game is hopeless. He glanced at Jordan, turned his head and glanced at the shooters on both sides of the Bulls. I could hardly cry.

"Don't look, this is not the regular season. As long as you don't play, I won't play. You have no chance at all." After finishing speaking, Jordan withdrew to half court defense, and the Mavericks'... morale was completely sluggish.

It's not that the Mavericks have no chance of a comeback, but as long as Jordan is on the court, the entire defense will have to stretch their hips. Even if Jordan is not there, chasing 3 points in 20 minutes is too dreamy, and this makes Gordon also desperate. The main force was replaced and the game was abandoned.

It’s not nice to say give up, but the problem is that the Mavericks really have nothing to fight for except Li Shengli, and when Li Shengli and his teammates got off the court, there was a roar in the United Center Arena, because everyone knows... the first game is over. .

……

"Li, you've worked hard!" Gordon's face turned bitter.

"Hard work? If I can win, I will be exhausted, and I am willing, but the problem is... I still can't beat it!" Li Shengli panted heavily.

"It's not your problem, you've played very well." Gordon patted Li Shengli on the shoulder and lowered his voice, "Get ready for the next game, don't be affected by your mentality, listen to me, you are the core of the team , you can't mess up, absolutely can't mess up, everyone is watching you."

"Okay, I'm fine." Li Shengli waved his hand and signaled Gordon to talk to other people. At this time, Garnett and Kidd looked serious, even Curry was the same. The always active team atmosphere instantly The beating was serious and depressing.

It's not that the Mavericks have never lost, but they have never lost so simply and so desperately in the entire playoffs.

I took a look at the Bulls... Jordan and several main players also went down. Although the victory was in sight, they didn't seem very excited because of it. On the contrary, it was very normal, and this is the most annoying thing, even though this is the finals , It also seems that the Mavericks are not regarded as a decent opponent at all.

Lost!

A crushing defeat!
