Chapter 276: Under the God of War
About 5 minutes into the second quarter of the game, relying on Liu Han's performance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends like a god of war, the Lakers once again extended their lead to 7 points. Jordan, who was continuously humiliated by Liu Han www.biquge.info was almost alone during this period of the second quarter, as long as the ball was in his hands, he must have tried to shoot, which gave Liu Han a good opportunity.
"I have to say that Liu's performance in less than five minutes is absolutely dominant, but I doubt that he can persist like this, and running like him will deplete his physical strength quickly." Larry Bird, who has also been a legend in his playing career, expressed his admiration for Liu Han's performance during this period, but at the same time he also felt that a game like Liu Han was likely to put him in a slump in the second half of the game.
Phil Jackson called a timeout again after the Lakers extended their lead to more than five points, and he had to call that if it went on, he was afraid that the Bulls players would be beaten by Liu Han alone until they lost confidence.
"Michael, I know you really want to deal with that kid very badly, seriously, if there is a gun now, I will not hesitate to shoot that kid, but this is the game, this is the finals, nothing is more important than the glory of the championship, as long as you win the championship, all the comments after the game will be that Jordan is still the king, Liu still needs time, but if we lose the game in the end, then we will all be a laughing stock, it will mean the complete defeat of the Bulls, I hope you can understand that." Phil Jackson didn't speak to the other players, just said to Jordan.
"Phil, we've been working together for almost ten years, you know my character, I think that's how I won, and only by beating that kid head-on can the team win, that's the only way." Jordan, who was completely controlled by paranoia, has lost his former peace, after winning three consecutive championships, he fell into a daze, chose to leave, and became the king again after returning, Jordan's heart can no longer tolerate too many suggestions, he only believes in his own ability. It can be said that it was such an extremely paranoid character that made Jordan go to the altar, and it was also such a paranoid personality that made him even more crazy when he was hit.
Looking at Jordan with a resolute face and bloodshot eyes, Phil Jackson stopped his persuasion, he knew how stubborn this guy in front of him was, and at the same time, he also silently began to think about his future path in his heart, the Bulls are likely to collapse after this season, and their general manager Jerry Claus will no longer tolerate Jordan, who has not won a championship for two years, and still pointing fingers at himself, this is the most vague idea in Phil Jackson's heart.
The Bulls had some altercations with the coach on the bench, and the same was true for the Lakers.
"Liu, I told you before, don't wantonly attack the inside of the Bulls, and don't ignore your body to make up for defense, nothing is more important than your body, even if we lose this game, we still have a chance to win again. Even if we lose this finals, we still have a future, you are all young, and I believe that the future must be our dynasty. George Krent criticized Liu Han's unscrupulous performance on the court, and he asked Liu Han to stop playing alone for the opposite reason of the Bulls, George now only wants to protect Liu Han's body, and in his opinion, Liu Han, who is only in his early twenties, has a lot of opportunities to set one magical record after another for the league.
"George, I'll be careful with myself, we've been together for a long time, I haven't asked you anything since the Bruins, please let me be presumptuous today, I have to win." Like Jordan's stubbornness, Liu Han showed the most primitive character in his heart.
Looking at Liu Han with a sincere face, George shook his head helplessly.
"Okay, but I want you to protect yourself as much as possible and reduce unnecessary conflicts, not only for your good, but also for the team's good." George still agreed to Liu Han's request.
The timeout ended soon and the two teams returned to the court, with the Lakers replacing Dell Curry with Michael Finley, Brent Barry also being replaced with Robert Horry, who was better defensively, and George hoped that this would take some of the pressure off Liu Han on defense and allow him to better engage in offense.
The game continued, Jordan directly received the ball on the baseline and attacked, and Ron Harper looked like he was directly ignored by Jordan although he was still on the court.
Jordan, who was carrying the ball, met Liu Han's defense at the first time, and Liu Han spared no effort to press Jordan all over the court again.
Jordan used his experience to dribble the ball to the front court smoothly, but under Liu Han's intense defense, their offensive time had been consumed for nearly eight seconds.
After halftime, Jordan waited for his teammates to pull away, and now he only wanted to teach the kid in front of him a good lesson.
The rest of the Bulls are pulling out of the line to create good conditions for Jordan's next offense, something that happened so often during the Bulls' first three-game winning streak, and they're used to that.
Jordan dribbled and did not break through directly, but slowly leaned towards Liu Han, trying to attract Liu Han closely, and then he could use his speed to throw Liu Han away, but Liu Han did not do what he wanted, but also followed the rhythm of Jordan's progress and slowly retreated, but always maintained this one and a half steps.
Seeing Liu Han Jordan, who was impeccable in defense, had a headache, this kid's physical fitness is not inferior to his peak at all, although his body weight is lighter than Jordan's, but his speed is more than a lot.
Faced with such a situation, Jordan habitually began to turn his back, since the first retirement and return, Jordan's weight has increased a little, and he has gradually changed his previous style of play, more on back attack, and now he still intends to do so in the face of Liu Han's defense.
Seeing Jordan with his back on his back, Liu Han deliberately took a step forward, and Jordan immediately turned around and prepared to break through. In fact, Jordan's back just now was intended to attract Liu Han to be close, as long as Liu Han was close, Jordan would have the opportunity to use his strength to completely squeeze Liu Han away, but his plan was completely guessed by Liu Han.
Since he was a child, Liu Han has been able to detect the other party's feelings about him from other people's eyes, and now he also uses this ability to detect his intentions from Jordan's eyes.
Just as Jordan turned to break through, Liu Han stopped moving forward, then suddenly dodged, and then his right hand went around Jordan's back and stabbed the ball that Jordan was slapping.
After the ball was poked out by Liu Han, Horry of the Lakers' interior got the ball as soon as possible, and then threw the ball to the front court hard, and Liu Han had already begun to run towards the Bulls halfcourt. (To be continued.) )
