Chapter 245 New hatred and old hatred
"Let's invite—the greatest player in history—! Regular season MVP—Michael Jordan—!" In the middle of the court, the host dragged his voice out, and the cheers in the United Center seemed to be real able to completely cover his voice.

The Bulls fans have gone crazy, some of them yelled, some laughed wildly, and some even shed tears silently.

"This is Michael Jordan's last season. He once again won the regular season MVP. He deserves to be the greatest player in history!"

"Great Michael, another regular season MVP!"

"Oh! Michael's last season, this is such a disappointment!"

Even those neutral commentators began to sing praises for Michael Jordan, or regret that Michael Jordan is about to retire.

But all of them seem to have forgotten one person, and that is Jonny Lee.

This is the scene of the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the United Center Arena in Chicago, Johnny is standing in front of the visiting team's bench, watching Michael Jordan slightly excitedly take over from David Stern. That MVP trophy, Jonny immediately had a feeling that he wanted to go berserk, that trophy should belong to him!

He averaged 37.8 points, 9.6 assists and 3.2 steals per game but lost to Michael Jordan, who averaged 28.7 points per game. Obviously Jordan's retirement tragedy card played a role.But Jonny can't control so much. The Celtics record is not bad, and his statistics are better, but the regular season MVP is still not his own. No matter what, this is unreasonable.

Johnny felt that he and Michael Jordan had a deep hatred. From the previous confrontation again and again, they had forged a bridge, and now, there was a new hatred. Johnny felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, and he wanted to make everyone You know, Michael Jordan is just relying on the old to sell the old, he stole his MVP trophy, but Johnny will still win Michael Jordan!
Originally, this game against the Bulls was a game that Jonny had to win, but now that the old and new enemies have gathered together, Jonny wants to win this game even more.

"We must win this game." Johnny said with a cold face, standing beside the team's main players.

Derek Coleman and the others also knew what Jonny was thinking, so they all nodded silently. In this game, they really had to work hard.

After the regular season MVP award ceremony, the game began.

The Celtics are still playing with the main lineup, and the Bulls have not changed much. Luke Langley and Ben Wallace jump the ball. Ben Wallace, who has too much height difference, naturally loses the jump ball.

The Aussie grabbed the basketball with absolute dominance, and the Bulls started their first play.

"The first game between the Bulls and the Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals has officially begun! I am your old friend Mike Breen, and this is my old partner, Groom Albert."

"The Bulls took the ball for the first wave of offense, and Ron Harper has already brought the ball to the frontcourt. As we said just now, this season is Michael Jordan's last season. The three consecutive championships are only short of the last championship. Presumably Michael Jordan I won’t let myself lose this championship. But the Celtics definitely don’t want to see the Bulls just step over them, so this round of matchup will definitely be a wonderful series!”

"That's right, what Mike said is right, but you still missed something, didn't you think of Jonny Lee? He was snatched away by Michael Jordan as the MVP of the regular season!" After finishing speaking, groom Albert laughed stand up.Mike Breen was reminded, too, and laughed as well.

They just expected this round of the series to be more exciting, so now that the Bulls and the Celtics have so many connections, the game will definitely be very exciting, and they are naturally happy.

On the court, Michael Jordan has already started to provoke Jonny: "Hey, Johnny, isn't my MVP trophy beautiful?"

Jonny was about to get angry immediately, and wanted to punch Michael Jordan in the face. Damn, this guy is so good at taking advantage of it!Johnny couldn't bear it, and made more defensive moves, pushing and shoving with Michael Jordan, which directly attracted the attention of the referee. After Scott Pippen made a breakthrough layup, the referee came over and warned Joe Ni and Michael Jordan.

And then, Johnny is going to let Michael Jordan know how good he is.

In the Celtics' first offense, Jonny took the ball without hesitation, stood outside the three-point line, and encountered Michael Jordan's defense.

Johnny took the ball directly, rushed into the three-point line in three steps and two steps, regardless of the defense that Michael Jordan had been following, made a layup in three steps and made a hit!The Celtics also hit a two-pointer, and the two sides tied at the beginning.

"Jony Lee's form is very good, even though Michael Jordan has tried his best to defend, this goal is still scored!"

Although the goal was scored, Jonny felt that the situation seemed a bit grim, because the goal that Jonny scored just now had cost him countless energy.Not only is Michael Jordan defending himself with all his strength, but Dennis Rodman and Scottie Pippen are also watching.It seems that in the playoffs, the Bulls' defense is instantly different.

This gives Jonny the feeling that the Bulls' defense is more than one level stronger than the regular season!
Johnny couldn't help sighing inwardly. Sure enough, the Bulls won two consecutive championships, and now they can rush to three consecutive championships. They didn't rely on their stars. Their defense was unexpectedly strong!
Phil Jackson is a head coach famous for the triangle offense. It stands to reason that the Bulls would not have such a strong defense. The Bulls should be strong in their offense. Just like it has always been, Michael Jordan and Scott Pippen are in the triangle offense A perfect fit in general.But now, the Bulls' defense makes Jonny feel as if he has met a team coached by Larry Brown. The suffocating defense can only be felt when facing Larry Brown's team.

Soon, the Bulls' triangle offense made Jonny feel another kind of trickiness. The various small cooperations of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen on the offensive end easily tore through the Celtics' fragile defense line, and then or Michael Jordan scored, or Scottie Pippen scored, and the linkage between the two of them, plus Luke Langley inside, the Bulls' offense was running at full capacity.

Naturally, the Celtics' weak defense could not withstand the bull's mad attack.

But fortunately, the Celtics' own offense was not bad. Xu Yi tried his best and finally drew with the Bulls.

After Michael Jordan turned around and scored a goal, Jonny turned around and made a three-pointer, which was successful!

5:4, Jonny scored 5 points in a row.

Then, Michael Jordan tore through the Celtics' defense by running, and then hit the ground and passed the ball to Luke Langley inside. Luke Langley dunked on the spot and scored 2 points, 6:5!

But then, Jonny gritted his teeth and scored another three-pointer!Actually entered again!When the crisp sound of the basketball passing through the net came, Jonny jumped up high, ignoring the boos of the Bulls fans!The celebration begins!

With two three-pointers in a row, only Johnny knew how hard he had worked, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was that Johnny's state exploded. In fact, only Johnny knew how many skills he had just used up!
At 8:6, the Celtics led the Bulls by 2 points with Jonny's two three-pointers.

Then, Phil Jackson, who has always been calm, called a timeout directly!

This is unbelievable to Johnny. You must know that Phil Jackson is notoriously calm during the game. He would not move at all if he could not move. He would just sit on the bench and chew his gum. Less than 2 minutes into the game, Phil Jackson used up the first timeout!
In fact, this is the reason why Jonny doesn't know Phil Jackson very well. If he knows Phil Jackson, he will know that Phil Jackson can become the most successful head coach in nba. Jackson's adjustments are always very timely.

And this timeout is actually the timeout that Phil Jackson called out in order to disrupt Jonny's rhythm when he felt that Jonny was about to go berserk.

The Bulls paused, and they quickly deployed tactics to guard against Johnny, but when they re-entered the court, they found that Johnny was actually replaced by Rick Pitino.

"What is this? Is Rick Pitino crazy? He actually replaced Johnny directly?!"

In fact, Rick Pitino was also a little helpless. He didn't want to replace Johnny. It was because Johnny twisted his foot when he was off the court, and he got a bruise directly, so Johnny needed a short treatment. Capitino then replaced Johnny.But he didn't expect that because of this substitution, the Bulls' arrangement would be disrupted.

Then, although the Celtics without Jonny fell into a disadvantage on the court, fortunately, Derek Coleman scored consecutively to help the team stabilize the situation.

On the sidelines, Jonny stood up: "Hey, Rick, I'm fine, let me play."

Johnny asked to play. During his absence, the Celtics stabilized the situation on the field, but the advantage accumulated by Johnny's rampage before was gone.He doesn't want to stay on the court and watch his teammates gradually let the Bulls widen the gap.

Rick Pitino naturally wished for Jonny's request to play again. He quickly asked Jonny to go to the technical table to change players, and then waited for the dead ball.

"Just now, Johnny suffered a slight injury, but it only took two or three minutes. He was ready to play again. It seems that there is nothing serious." Mike Breen noticed the situation on the sidelines and said a few words.

"Jony's importance to the Celtics is beyond doubt, so Rick Pitino chose to replace him immediately."

Johnny came out and the game continued.

After returning to the field, Johnny saw Derek Coleman, who seemed to be in good condition, and he was ready to play the role of organizer again.

On the first ball, Jonny chose to pass the ball.

After he took the ball, he chose to rush into the penalty area, which directly attracted Dennis Rodman's double-team. In this case, Jonny did not choose to force himself, but chose to pass the ball, a somewhat gorgeous pass behind the head, It directly allowed Derek Coleman to get a mid-range unmarked shot!
There were exclamations in the United Center, and amidst the exclamations, Derek Coleman raised his hand and hit this undoubted mid-range shot.

Then, the Bulls did not show any weakness, Scottie Pippen forced Bruce Bowen and dunked successfully!
In this way, the two teams drew a tie in the first quarter, but in fact, at the end of the first quarter, the Celtics were already behind by 5 points, and they fell behind the Bulls by a score of 23:28.

At the beginning of the second quarter, everything was similar to the first quarter. There were very few turnovers on both sides, and the offensive success rate was relatively high.And Jonny slightly turned on some personal modes in the second quarter, coupled with the good state shown by Derek Coleman, the Celtics barely allowed the Bulls to widen the point difference, and even narrowed the point gap a little bit. .

At the end of the second quarter, the Celtics were only 2 points behind.

The game was very difficult, but for Johnny, the first half of the game was unexpectedly easy. He originally thought that he would start a whole game of individual mode, but Derek Coleman really played out. His role, scoring again and again.

Throughout the first half, Jonny scored 16 points and 6 assists, plus 3 rebounds and 2 steals. Derek Coleman, who helped the Celtics stabilize the situation today, also scored 14 points and 11 rebounds in the first half. Gorgeous data, it can be said that if it wasn't for Derek Coleman's explosion, then Jonny would have been exhausted in the first half.

After halftime, in the locker room of the visiting team, there were only the footsteps of the Celtics players back and forth. Jonny applied an ice pack to the side, and then waited for Rick Pitino to make arrangements for the second half.

"In the second half, Johnny continued to play, and we made other substitutions. Dana replaced Chauncey, Mark Blunt replaced Ben, Anthony Parker replaced Bruce Bowen, and the rest remained unchanged."

Johnny was not surprised when he heard the personnel arrangement for the second half. He will continue to play in this game. Of course, Derek Coleman, who is in good form, will also continue to play, which is a bit unexpected.

However, Derek Coleman, who is not in good physical condition, will still get a rest time, but that will be when Derek Coleman is out of good form.As for himself, Jonny has long been prepared for the entire game without rest.

According to Rick Pitino's plan, the Celtics need to completely chase the Bulls' score in the first three quarters and cannot be opened up by the Bulls.Facing such a strong team, the Celtics obviously can't think about leading the Bulls by a big score. All they can think about is to fight the Bulls to the last moment!
At the last moment, the victory of the game has nothing to do with the strength of the team. At that time, luck is the most important thing, and Rick Pitino also believes that the younger Celtics will hand over a better team at the last moment of the game. good answer sheet.

The game restarted in the second half. Johnny, standing in the tunnel, took a deep breath. He knew that the real test would be in the second half, especially the beginning of the third and fourth quarters. At that time, the Bulls would definitely Will make a sudden effort, trying to widen the point difference.

　This book has been updated, because the editor said that the outline ending cannot be used, so Yiwen will give a relatively normal ending. Starting from today, every day, write about 10,000+ words, and you can give a not-so-eunuch ending. It's over.

　　In addition, several author friends persuaded me to try writing a new book. They asked me to try the coaching article again. Yi Wen also wrote it. The title of the book "The Strongest Coach in History" has been released. I hope everyone can support it one time.
