Chapter 313
At the beginning of the third quarter, the two sides sent all the main players again, preparing to lay a good foundation for the fourth quarter.

The Bulls took the lead in getting the ball, Harper came to control the ball near the top of the arc, and Jordan and Pippen played without the ball.

I saw that Harper suddenly changed direction and accelerated, dodged Van Exel, and rushed straight to the penalty area. When Zhou Yu and O'Neal were not in place, he made a lightning-fast backhand layup and sent the ball to the penalty area. into the basket.

For this ball, Harper noticed in time that Zhou Yu and O'Neal were a little far from the penalty area, because they seized the opportunity to win in one fell swoop.

I have to admit that the Bulls' ability to read the game is still better than that of the Lakers.

"46:45", the Bulls chased the point difference to only one point, and the game became extremely anxious.

To be on the safe side, Kobe dribbled the ball a few times from the outside, and then passed the ball to the inside. After O'Neal got the ball, he attacked Longley again.

After a few hard pushes from the back, O'Neal made a fake turn up the line, then turned around swiftly, slipped smoothly to the bottom line, and came to the basket.

It's just that it doesn't seem so easy for him to force a slam dunk. Rodman has formed a zone defense with Longley.

In desperation, O'Neal passed the ball to Zhou Yu who was not far away. After Zhou Yu got the ball, he suddenly felt someone screaming behind him, probably either Jordan or Pippen.

He didn't make a forced shot, but passed the ball quickly to the "madman" who came in from the other side. The "madman" made a handsome "horseback archery" shot and scored the ball!

"48:45", the Lakers led the Bulls by three points. In this round, the Lakers played very patiently, and the cooperation between the players became more and more tacit.

In the subsequent round, Jordan finally started to shoot and hit the iron. O'Neal overpowered Longley and grabbed a rebound. The Lakers had a chance to expand the point difference.

It's a pity that the Bulls returned to defense too fast, and it was basically impossible to play fast breaks. They could only grind their positions patiently and meticulously.

Because it was very uncomfortable being squeezed by Rodman on the inside, Zhou Yu once again mentioned receiving the ball from a high position, and after getting the ball, he played a better face-up attack.

After a few false steps in a row, Zhou Yu quickly cut to the center of the Bulls with the ball in his left hand. Rodman naturally played his life's top defense, which can be described as using both hands and feet.

Because Zhou Yu's threat was too great, the breakthrough with the ball also attracted the attention of other Bulls players. The defense quickly retracted, and the Lakers had opportunities outside.

Zhou Yu took the opportunity to pass the ball to Van Exel in the corner without hesitation. Although Van Exel's shooting rate is not good, the brother's most important thing is that he dares to shoot and dare to show his sword. He shoots immediately after getting the ball Shoot threes.

The basketball crossed a high parabola and entered the net with a crisp sound!

"51:45", the Lakers extended their lead to six points with Fan's three-pointer.

Although the Bulls were behind, they couldn't see much despair from the faces of the players, because they had Jordan, and Jordan was the guarantee of victory.

In fact, even though Jordan looked calm and full of confidence, he was a little shaken deep in his heart. The young Lakers team in front of him was not only full of drive, but also full of talent. Strong opponent.

In any case, he has to carry the team forward, because they want to achieve the second three consecutive championships.

In order to improve his shooting rate, Jordan began to go inside. His height of 1.98 meters combined with his extraordinary stagnation and jumping was enough to keep him from falling behind when facing big players inside.

It was another cool "one-step pass", Jordan flashed past Kobe in one fell swoop, and rushed straight to the Lakers penalty area.

In the face of Zhou Yu and O'Neal's two-man defense, Jordan did not choose to pass the ball, but faced up to the difficulties, using his super airborne ability to continuously change hands in mid-air, dodging Zhou Yu and O'Neal's two shots one after another. With only a big hand, he hooked the ball into the basket smoothly!

Almost at the same time, the referee's whistle sounded suddenly, and O'Neal was sentenced to a defensive foul. Jordan's goal counted, and an additional free throw was required!
God is God, needless to say, Jordan is so domineering and arrogant, let you blow the wind and waves.

With Jordan's free throws steadily hitting, the score between the two sides became "51:48", and the Bulls narrowed the point difference to three points. With Jordan, the Lakers want to open the score, which is hard to beat.

In the next round, Kobe started to go crazy, using continuous dribbles from his crotch to catch the ball, then turned around and faked, shook Jordan away, and then pulled out a fadeaway jumper.

It's a pity that the basketball dangled a few times in the basket, and then jumped out playfully.

With a roar, Rodman used his continuous jumping skills to grab the rebound, and the Bulls immediately started to counterattack with a fast break.

Up to now, because the positional battle can't take advantage of it, the Bulls cherish the opportunity of fast break, so the speed of advancement can be described as extremely fast.

Jordan and Pippen formed a "two-point connection" in the rapid advancement. Pippen received Jordan's lob pass and smashed the ball into the basket in midair.

"51:50", the Bulls narrowed the point difference to one point. Under the leadership of Jordan, the counter-offensive momentum became stronger and stronger.

Zhou Yu had a premonition that the situation was not good. The Bulls are a team with excellent tactical skills. Once the opponent seizes an opportunity, they will not let it go easily. The most important thing for the Lakers at present is to reduce mistakes and increase the success rate.

Therefore, the power of the "Twin Towers of the Lakers" must be brought into full play in order to compete with the "God of Basketball".

In the subsequent offense of the Lakers, although Zhou Yu was uncomfortable being defended by Rodman, he still tried his best to get deep in order to form a greater threat to the Bulls inside.

Kobe probably also saw the urgency of the situation. After dribbling the ball a few times from the outside, he didn't take a shot rashly, but transferred the ball to Zhou Yu's hands.

After Zhou Yu got the ball, he first made a fake move of shaking his shoulders and shaking his head, and then used Duncan's turning and cutting technique to quickly slip to the bottom line.

Just when Longley and Rodman were encircling him, they passed the ball to O'Neal who was not far away in time. After O'Neal got the ball, he took advantage of the opportunity to dunk the ball like a mountain with both hands, and smashed the ball into the basket. The backboard is crumbling.

"53:50", the Lakers led the Bulls by three points, which stabilized the situation slightly.

"Wang, it would be great for you to pass this kind of ball to me more, why do I play so hard."

After O'Neill scored a goal, he complained to Zhou Yu incessantly.

"Brother Shark, can you show some face, why haven't I seen you pass me any good balls?"

Zhou Yu snorted coldly and replied.

"Wang, you can't blame me, my IQ is not as high as yours."

O'Neill scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed.

"Low IQ will affect the next generation. I'll tell Xiaoya right away and persuade her to break up with you so as not to affect the IQ of the future baby."

Zhou Yu said with a half-smile.

"Don't, don't, Wang, it's okay if I'm wrong, I promise to feed you a few more good shots."

O'Neill hurriedly dissuaded him with dancing.

Unknowingly, halfway through the third quarter, and in a few minutes, it is estimated that the substitute players will be on the field.

Zhou Yu didn't dare to neglect, and hoped to keep or even expand the lead before coming off the bench. The Bulls naturally had the same idea. Therefore, the competition between the two sides became more fierce, and the defensive intensity reached a suffocating level.

Pippen mentioned high ball possession, and Jordan continued to play off the ball. For Jordan, reducing ball possession can save some energy. His goal is only one, and that is to score goals.

After a sudden reverse run and lateral movement, Jordan shook off Kobe and successfully received a pass from Pippen.

After getting the ball, he didn't make a jump shot immediately, but a fake shot, shaking Kobe who was chasing after him, and then quickly rushed to the Lakers penalty area with the ball.

The Lakers' inside line immediately became turbulent, Jordan's impact was simply too strong, and there were many ways to get the basket.
