Chapter 317 I'M BACK!

Jordan took a deep look at D'Antoni.

"No! This is definitely not a choice that D'Antoni can make." Jordan still has a certain understanding of D'Antoni's character. He knows that in such a critical game, D'Antoni would never dare to risk the world's disgrace and put O'Neal, the absolute core of the team, off the court.

His gaze scanned the Magic team's bench, and finally landed on Anna.

Anna clearly showed her nervousness. She crossed her hands together and looked at the team members who were preparing for the game with a nervous expression.

"It seems that today's opponent is replaced by you, Anna." A smile appeared on the corner of Jordan's mouth. He chewed the gum in his mouth, feeling that today's game will become more interesting.

However, soon after the game started, the smile on Jordan's face disappeared.

"Why is this kid so annoying!" He looked at the expressionless No. 11 of the Magic.

Clay is like a tarsal maggot, no matter where Jordan goes, he will follow him, even if the pick-and-roll switch reveals a big open.

Although this does not prevent Jordan from scoring points on his head, as the saying goes, a toad lies on his feet, and he is disgusting if he doesn't bite. . .

Besides, Clay is not a toad, his defensive ability is much stronger than Nick Van Exel.

What's more, this kid's running ability is very strong. Often, when Jordan doesn't pay attention, he slips into an open position and shoots when he raises his hand.

And that wasn't the only problem the Bulls had.

It can be said that the Bulls are in trouble at all five positions.

Mason, who played as a guest center, stood firmly outside the three-point line, like a dealer.

And his organizational skills are not worse than some point guards at all, and his passing is fast and accurate.

Grant could only follow Mason out. In this way, only Rodman and Kemp were left on the inside of the two teams.

What is the center doing?

Scoring and rebounding.

If there is no need for a center to score and the Magic has Rodman standing under the basket, then it doesn't matter to the Magic whether Mason stands inside or not.

But the Magic don't care, the Bulls do. . . .

In terms of rebounding skills, there is a whole era of difference between Kemp and Rodman. . .

Grant couldn't shrink back, because Mason had the basket.

Rarely, when the Bulls faced the Magic without O'Neal, they played a [-]-[-] with the Magic.

When O'Neal stood on the court in the second quarter, surrounded by four shooters, Jordan finally understood the disgusting aspect of Anna's tactics.

Although Jordan stayed on the court in the second quarter, the others still had to go down and take a break. After all, you can't let all the starters play the full 48 minutes.

As for Jordan, he can defend alone. Even with Armstrong and Kukoc coming off the bench, their perimeter defense is much worse than in the first quarter.

So, O'Neill opened up the second quarter completely.

O'Neal, who can't double-team inside, is a bug. If you dare to double-team him, you dare to pass. The four players on the outside all have the ability to shoot three-pointers. A very common scene in the second quarter is that eight people stand near the three-point line, watching O'Neal ravage the Bulls' backup center Langley inside.

Langley's current mood is similar to that of Nick Van Exel in the previous game, and he is almost on the verge of autism.

Although his height and weight are not much different from O'Neal, but in terms of strength and agility, he is far behind.

O'Neal just scored 12 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in the second quarter.

His five assists turned into five three-pointers.

At halftime, the Magic unexpectedly led the Bulls on the road.

D'Antoni has to admit that Anna is indeed more talented than himself in commanding the team.

She accurately found the shortcomings of the Bulls that are not considered shortcomings, and firmly grasped this point, creating a chance for the Magic to win.

Phil Jackson is not the kind of coach who is good at directing on the spot. Facing Anna's formation similar to Dugu Nine Swords, he can't think of any good way, so he can only hand over everything on the field to Jordan.

Although Jordan is known as the god of basketball, let him shoulder the responsibilities of Phil Jackson. . . .

This is too difficult for the old hooligan.

The Magic finally won the first victory of the series with difficulty.

While watching Anna calmly arranging troops on the sidelines, D'Antoni had the illusion of "I can do it myself".

After going back, D'Antoni watched the video of the game for a whole day, and all of Anna's on-the-spot arrangements were squeezed in his heart.

"I've learned it!" D'Antoni turned off the TV complacently, feeling that he had learned Anna's style of play against the Bulls.

The next day, the Western Conference Finals continued. The Rockets still did not give Hill and Hardaway any chance. Even though the two strengthened their outside shots, they have never been good at shooting.

The Rockets won the Mavericks away game and took the lead in winning the match point.

After Anna asked D'Antoni, she unexpectedly got the information that D'Antoni wanted to come by herself.

To show respect for the head coach, Anna nodded.

D'Antoni confidently lined up the same starting lineup as the previous game.

But in the first quarter, things went wrong.

The Bulls strengthened the shots of open players, which put the Magic in a dilemma.

Clay's way of defending Jordan is destined to give the Bulls a lot of open shots. After replacing Grant, replacing Kukoc as a power forward, and bringing Kemp to the center, the Bulls' outside shooting ability has also risen to a higher level.

The Bulls' frequent pick-and-roll screens created a lot of shooting opportunities for them.

After D'Antoni asked Clay not to chase Jordan with a tangled face, the situation of the Magic took a turn for the worse.

Because it means the Magic let go of Jordan.

Jordan can hit whoever he wants, and like the previous two games, he started scoring crazy points.

Although O'Neal played quite well on the bench, he obviously couldn't win the game by himself when Jordan could not be restricted.

The Bulls took the match point of the series.

When Anna came home, she saw Davis sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face.

"Honey, why do you want to hand over the command to Mike, you have to know that your on-the-spot command is our last chance for this round of the series."

Anna murmured, not knowing what to say.

On the second day, the Western Conference finals were the first to have results. The Rockets swept the Mavericks, the dark horse that almost performed a miracle, and got close to the finals.

On the second day, everyone was eagerly waiting to see if the Bulls could become the team that met the Rockets in the final.

However, the appearance of a person made the result of this match full of suspense again.

Davis walked into the locker room calmly, and said a word under the surprised eyes of his teammates.

"I am back."

　Four more and four more. .It's almost 12 o'clock. . .
