Compared with the Lakers' easy preparation, the Bulls are more rigorous, Phil Jackson is facing a very unfavorable situation, with the Bulls' current lineup, there is indeed a gap with the Lakers in some aspects, but the most exciting thing about competitive sports is its uncertainty, and the story of the weak man slaying the dragon is respected in any historical context.

In view of the fact that the Bulls' role players are slightly worse than the Lakers, Phil Jackson can only let Michael Jordan and Scott Pippen play more in the next game, but fortunately, these two are in good physical condition, and it is difficult for a player close to 35 years old to play 40 minutes per game.

However, Phil Jackson also has a difficult problem with Tony Kukoc, who was hit hard in the last game. After the last match, the Turk who returned to the station even received psychological counseling from the team doctor, and Liu Han's "death button" that crossed his "death button" was too big a blow to Kukoc. Although Tony Kukoczy, who has been coached, seems to be feeling some better, Phil Jackson has no belief that he will be able to recover in the next game.

After a day of rest, the two teams faced off in the second match of the finals.

The Lakers' mentality is quite relaxed, after all, they are the leading side, while the Bulls' side is a little dignified, Jordan has been silent since he entered the Great Western Forum arena, and he didn't even pay attention to his friend Scott Pippen's accosting.

"Hello viewers, this is the second game of the NBA Finals in the 97-98 season that CCTV is broadcasting live for you. The guests who came to our studio today are Director Zhang and Director Xu, good two. ”

"Hello host, hello audience friends." After setting up a sports channel, CCTV will broadcast an NBA game live on the sports channel every week, but after Liu Han joined the NBA and quickly became famous, the number of CCTV live broadcasts has increased greatly, and basically most of the games are Lakers games, which is of course related to Liu Han's super high popularity in China, and part of the reason is that it is said that Liu Han's uncle is the minister in charge of the cultural department in China, which has been confirmed by authoritative sources within CCTV, there is such a big man sitting in the background, How dare the domestic media report Liu Han's negative news, not to mention that there is no negative news at all.

"In the last game, the Los Angeles Lakers easily beat the Bulls by 18 points, Coach Zhang, what do you think of the last game?" The young newcomer sports channel host asked Zhang Lili.

"The last game can be said to be the perfect embodiment of the strength of the Lakers, first of all, the Lakers are more reasonable than the Bulls in terms of tactics, although the Bulls' triangle offense is very famous, but this tactic relies more on the personal ability of the core players, which is not very reasonable from a purely tactical point of view, the Lakers have such an outstanding player as Liu Han, which restricts Jordan's play very well, so that the Bulls' tactics have no way to play at all, and the Lakers' role players are also more reasonable, So the victory in the last game is also logical. "Zhang Lili knew that he analyzed the last game from a tactical and reasonable point of view.

"Well, yes, Director Zhang is right, in fact, the NBA has always underestimated Liu Han's defensive ability, from the time he entered the NBA, he was known for his defense and three-pointers, at that time his physical fitness was not developed at all, and he only relied on physical strength and defensive spirit to entangle the opponent, but now through the last game, we found that Liu Han's defense is not inferior to the NBA's top outside defenders." Director Xu, who is tall and tall, also focused the topic on Liu Han.

"Thank you two for your wonderful comments, so let's connect with our reporter Zhao Chengkai in Los Angeles to see what the scene is like now."

"Hello Cheng Kai, can you tell us what the atmosphere is like?"

"Hello host, I'm at the Great Western Forum Arena in Los Angeles, and the stadium is now full, and the fans in Los Angeles are eagerly waiting for the game to start." The tall and handsome Zhao Chengkai appeared in the picture of the TV. Since he met Liu Han, although he has not been in touch much, he is his relative after all, so Zhao Chengkai has become a reporter in charge of Liu Han on the sports channel, because he can get first-hand information from Liu Han.

"It just so happened that I invited Liu Han for everyone, come, Liu Han, say hello to the audience in front of the TV." Zhao Chengkai actually lived in Liu Han's house directly as soon as he arrived in the United States, so he was basically around Liu Han during this time, and it was very easy to invite Liu Han, who was warming up.

"Good evening, audience friends, I'm Liu Han." Although it was not the first time that Liu Han had greeted a domestic live broadcast like this, he was still a little cautious, and he looked at Zhao Chengkai immediately after he finished speaking, hoping that the other party would tell him whether he was right.

After Liu Han finished speaking, Zhao Chengkai couldn't help but want to touch his head, this guy, it's morning in China, and he is here to say good evening.

"Because the live time is 8 o'clock local time in Los Angeles, so Liu Han said good evening, Liu Han, for this game, do you have the confidence to win it?" Zhao Chengkai hurriedly explained to the audience in front of the TV.

"Of course I have confidence, I wouldn't have come to the tournament without confidence, I play every game with the confidence that I will win, and I will give my best for the game." Liu Han just said his determination like a big star.

"Okay, thank you, Liu Han, I wish you the best of luck in this game, host." Zhao Chengkai briefly reported the atmosphere of the scene, and now CCTV has not yet set up a broadcasting station in the United States.

"Thank you Cheng Kai for sending us back the on-site situation, take a short break and let us enter the official game."

On June 5, 98 local time in Los Angeles, the second game of the finals officially began.

The Lakers are sitting at home, and the starting list is no different from the last game, Nash has been on the bench since he entered the Finals, because if he starts, he will meet Ron Harper of the Bulls, although the opponent's desire to attack is not strong, but he can beat Nash in terms of height and weight, so George Krent tried to let Nash avoid Ron Harper after entering the Finals.

The Bulls made some adjustments today, Tony Kukoc did not get the start again, Dennis Rodman started as a power forward, Ron Harper unexpectedly did not start, but replaced Steve Kerr on the field, Phil Jackson made such a rare big adjustment, Jordan seemed to be the starting point guard, and Liu Han was opposed.

The Bulls' starters caught the attention of the audience as soon as they came out, and it seems that the 23rd will continue to be entangled with the 24th in this game. (To be continued.) )
