Compared with the starters of the two teams, the difference in strength is very obvious.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the opening scrum, Tim Duncan beat George Murraysan to rack the ball back into his own half, and after the basketball bounced to the ground, Steve Nash easily got the ball.

With a sharp left foot, Steve Nash accelerated and quickly dribbled to the offensive frontcourt, which took less than three seconds before and after.

With the offensive triangle of Horace Grant, Scottie Pippen, and Michael Jordan, as well as Tim Duncan and Steve Nash, two top players who are good at team basketball, the Chicago Bulls' triangle offensive system has been sharpened into a half-court offensive system, making it more difficult for the defender to defend.

After an unbelievable and uncatchable interspersed run, the Chicago Bulls easily tore through the defense of the Washington Bullets, and Scottie Pippen assisted Michael Jordan to pull a layup, the ball went in, 2:0, and the Chicago Bulls successfully seized the first offensive opportunity.

As an unprecedented six-time champion in the NBA (90-91 season, 91-92 season, 92-93 season, 93-94 season, 94-95 season, 95-96 season), the Chicago Bulls' offense can't be limited at all, so it is not annoyed that it is beaten into offense.

After the Chicago Bulls scored, the Washington Bullets served the sideline quickly, and as a technical player, defense was not Steve Nash's strong point, and Rod Strickland, the point guard opposite him, controlled the basketball and quickly moved to the offensive frontcourt.

However, because of the huge gap in the strength of the players, the Bulls players at this time have already returned to the defense in place, and the tight defensive lineup does not give the opponent any space, and the Washington Bullets can only engage in hard-hitting positional battles.

In the center position, Tim Duncan defends George Muresan; In the power forward position, Horace Grant defends Juwan Howard; Small forward, Scottie Pippen defends Chris Webb; Shooting guard, Michael Jordan defends Long Zheng; In the point guard position, Steve Nash defends Rod Strickland.

Seeing Long Zheng stretching out his hand to ask for the ball, Rod Strickland did not hesitate and passed the ball decisively.

The broadcast camera switched, and the TV screen showed Long Zheng holding the ball and playing Michael Jordan alone, and the two attacked and defended, fighting happily.

The continuous feints did not shake Michael Jordan, and Long Zheng suddenly turned around and leaned against Michael Jordan.

"Audience friends, it's an outside back single!"

A sports channel in Huaguo, the volume of the host opposite the special guest suddenly increased.

"One is Long Zheng, who hasn't played since the Olympics, and the other is Michael Jordan, who has retired from professional basketball for three years. However, speaking of this, the host changed his words: "Even so, the two are still the most influential basketball players in the world." ”

While the host was speaking, Long Zheng had already launched a strong attack.

On the TV screen, Long Zheng swayed left and right, and made a very large backward jumper, successfully escaping Michael Jordan's strict defense. Because Long Zheng's movements were so fast, the TV audience didn't notice how Long Zheng attacked, and the basketball had already penetrated the Nets and hit a three-point shot. At 3:2, the Washington Bullets overtook the score.

"Hahaha, it seems that I haven't been in battle for a long time, but Long Zheng is in a better state." Next to the host, the special guest laughed and said.

Because of Long Zheng's Chinese identity, whether it is the host or a special guest, they all have a great impression of him.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Looking at Long Zheng, who quickly returned to defense after scoring a goal, Michael Jordan had mixed feelings in his heart. The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.

Although Long Zheng's goal just now is not fancy, it really reaches the level of Michael Jordan's peak moment, simple! Highly efficient!! But deadly!!

Unwilling, shocked, and most of all, high morale.

People don't know it, but Scottie Pippen, a teammate who knows Michael Jordan well, knows everything from his eyes.

The competition seems to have become more interesting.

Eyes swept over Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen thought to himself.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After Ryu-jung scored, it was the Chicago Bulls' turn to attack.

After a succession of quick passes, Scottie Pippen handed the ball to Michael Jordan, who reached for it.

When he meets the enemy, he will show his sword, proud as Jordan, and will never allow Long Zheng to stand out, not to mention that this game is the first official game he participated in after his comeback, and Michael Jordan cannot afford to lose, after all, this is his most confident basketball.

In a tentative step, Michael Jordan's feints successfully deceived Long Zheng. With his left foot straining, Jordan jumped to his feet and made a step-back jumper decisively. Successfully seizing the fleeting opportunity, Jordan threw the basketball in his hand hard under the gaze of Long Zheng.

Long Zheng looked back and saw the basketball slashing through the air and falling straight into the basket, hitting a three-point shot.

The basketball god, Michael Jordan, remains the most powerful basketball player on the planet.

At 5:3, with Jordan's three-pointer back, the game suddenly became intense.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The Chicago Bulls scored, and the Washington Bullets went on offense.

In the face of the Bulls' impregnable defense, center George Muressan, power forward Juwan Howard, small forward Chris Webb, and point guard Rod Strickland had no chance to shoot and could only pass the ball to Long Zheng.

Before participating in this game, Long Zheng had no intersection with his teammates on the Bullet team, let alone a team understanding. Lack of tacit understanding, it is impossible to play team basketball, and in this situation, Long Zheng can only continue to play the role of a lone hero.

Resisting Michael Jordan, Long Zheng forced his way to the basket with his physical fitness, and before the rest of the Bulls players came over to wrap up, he turned around and made a layup.

5:5, at the beginning of the game, the two teams came and went, and the atmosphere was extraordinarily warm.

"The perfect combination of power and technology!!"

On a sports channel in Huaguo, the host and special guests are chatting about the game in front of them.

"After the ball just now, Jordan can't accept his old age if he wants to."

In front of the host, the mood of the special guests was very high, and they praised Long Zheng's turn and layup just now.

"Interesting!" Looking at Long Zheng's quick back to defense, the corners of Michael Jordan's mouth hooked, and his fists couldn't help but clench.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The two teams have two consecutive offensive and defensive rounds, and the reality of the Washington Bullets has been completely exposed in front of the Bulls.

As a new member of the team, Ryu Zheng has no tacit understanding with center George Muressan, power forward Juwan Howard, small forward Chris Webber, and point guard Rod Strickland. For the Washington Bullets, the dragon is a veritable black hole of ball possession. Because Long Zheng's strength is the best in the whole team, and it is extremely difficult for other players of the Washington Bullets to break through the solid defense of the Chicago Bulls, as long as the basketball is passed to Long Zheng, there is no possibility of transmission.

Even if Long Zheng's shot success rate is extremely high, but in the high-intensity game of the playoffs, Long Zheng's physical strength can never support him to play the whole game.

The Chicago Bulls only need to wait for Ryuzheng's stamina to drop before they can take advantage of the opportunity to open up the gap with the Washington Bullets.

Compared to the starting line-ups of the two teams, the real difference between the two teams is actually above the bench.

At the center position, in addition to Tim Duncan, the Chicago Bulls also have Bill Cartwright as a backup;

In the power forward position, in addition to Horace Grant, the Chicago Bulls also have Rashid Wallace as a backup;

In the small forward position, in addition to Scottie Pippen, the Chicago Bulls also have Pete Meyers as a backup;

In addition to Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls also have two strong players as substitutes, Tony Kukoc and Kerry Kittels;

In addition to Steve Nash, the Chicago Bulls also have Jason Williams and alien Sam Cassel as substitutes.

It is precisely because of the strong bench lineup in the team that the players of the Chicago Bulls are very happy to see the black hole of Long Zheng in the opponent's lineup.

The Chicago Bulls have a strong bench lineup, while the Washington Bullets have a withered bench lineup, with two or three big cats and kittens.
