Chapter Twenty-Six: The Soaring Lakers! Bulls vs Magic
Jazz, King, Knicks!
Three games, three wins!
Won the first game by 33 points, the second by 57 points, and the third by 45 points!
A whopping 135 net points in three games!
Great! The Lakers' performances in these three games have been nothing short of great!
It's not as simple as winning three games! The strength and technical and tactical level revealed by the Lakers players in the game are completely different from last year!
All-round upgrade!
Last year's team was already a super team that could fight the Bulls for 7 games, and this year's fully promoted Lakers are completely rare teams in history. Many celebrities know in their hearts that such a Laker is not worth playing against any championship team in the past!
And the Lakers haven't reached their peak yet, their two core players are still young, and there's still room for improvement!
That's what people are looking forward to!
"The Lakers are coming! That epic team, once again revived. —Doug Collins
"This Lakers team will be the number one opponent of any team that aspires to win the championship." —Larry Bird
"It can be transformed like this in one season, what kind of magic did Kobe Bryant put on this team?" —Malfoy Albert
"Shaq has the domineering spirit of my youth." —Big Dipper, Wilt Chamberlain.
.......
All basketball commentators are optimistic about the Lakers. Winning by 135 points in three games, such a historic start is simply the opening chapter of a legendary team.
A dynasty team has been formed, whether it is the foundation of the team, the state of the players, the tactics of the coach are enough to build a dynasty in any era.
The Lakers winning the championship is almost a certainty, and all other teams in the league can do now is to press the Lakers again! While they're not experienced enough, grab a championship or two.
If it were another 2 or 3 years, the Lakers at that time would have problems except for themselves, otherwise there would really be no team to stop them!
The Lakers' side is soaring, but the Bulls in the East have ushered in many big battles.
On November 3, the Bulls host the Spurs!
The third battle of the new champion, Tim Duncan!
Although the Spurs won the first two games, Duncan, who had a mediocre performance, finally played the performance that a historical superstar should have in this game!
scored 19 points, 22 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 blocks, 2 steals and 1 turnover, and together with the Admiral who scored 23+12+5, the Bulls ruled the restricted area!
In the fourth quarter, Jordan, the god of basketball, went down to earth and equalized the score like crazy and went into overtime.
One overtime, two overtime!
In the end, Jordan scored 8 points in a row in the second overtime! In the end, he turned to single-handedly fight the Admiral and killed the game in front of David Robinson with a mid-range shot!
He made 39 shots in the game, hit 17 shots, and scored 47 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists, 5 steals, 1 block and 3 turnovers!
Roar to the sky!
Jordan had a rare post-game gaffe during the regular season!
It's tough! This game is too tough to win!
Then they take on the 93 Gemini Magic on November 5th!
The run-in between Penny Hardaway and Webb has already begun to take shape, with two players who are happy to share the ball, led by championship coach Chuck Daley, playing crazy team offensive basketball.
Prior to this game, the Magic had won all three of their games!
Win the Eagles! Win the Celtics! Win the Bucks!
The Magic Twins vs. the Green Army were a classic game, with five talented players on the court putting their talents to the fullest.
But Ginger is still old and spicy, Penny Hardaway smashed Maddy's defense and won 27+4+9, Webb toyed with the fat head and blew down 24+11+6, and finally took away the game.
So the Magic and the Bulls, who are also 2-1, the two most championship-looking teams in the East, have encountered!
It's almost a rehearsal for the Eastern Conference Finals.
Jordan vs the first generation of Jordan's successor, Penny Hardaway.
The Bulls have one less Pippen than three years ago, and the Magic have one less O'Neal, but they have one more gorgeous power forward, and all the top Chris Webber skills are the same.
The result?
The Bulls' players, motivated by the Zen master and Jordan's lead, are in better shape one game at a time.
This game against the Magic, although it didn't quite find the invincible feeling of last season, was still much better than the first few games of the season.
In the first half of the game, the Magic played team basketball under the leadership of Penny Hardaway and Webb. The star acts as the initiator of the attack, allowing the rest of his teammates to complete the attack as much as possible.
On the Bulls' side, Jordan also handed over the ball to his teammates, and he only took 11 shots in the half, scoring 14 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.
Bull 47:51 Magic.
In the second half, Jordan personally led the penny!
Penny still played under Jordan's defense, and the speed of Penny Jordan was no longer pinched.
But Rodman stepped up, locked Webb to death, and dominated the board at the same time!
In the case of Jordan's consecutive misses, he frantically grabbed offensive rebounds and let Jordan continue to find his form.
At the end of the third quarter, the Bulls 73:77 Magic.
It looks like the Bulls are on the downside, and you don't think that way when you face Jordan.
The god of critical moments!
In the last quarter, Jordan turned the tide again!
Under the pence marking, he ignored the defense and threw 5 mid-range shots in a row!
5 mid-pitchers have pennies in the face of purple!
It's just ignoring the defense!
It's just catch the ball and shoot! There is simply no offensive means to put pennies in your eyes, pennies just can't be prevented!
The Magic still had a chance to kill in the last attack, Webb held the ball with his back and was about to pass to the penny, but was stealed by Jordan!
Throw the ball high into the sky and harvest this key card battle for the first and second in the East! Won in the rehearsal of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Bulls 92:91 comeback and defeat Magic!
Jordan finished with 35 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 1 block and 0 turnovers.
Rodman had 17 points and 18 rebounds in the game, including 9 frontcourt rebounds, which blew up the interior of the Michigan Five Tigers!
Rodman's outburst became Jordan's most reliable helper.
Penny had 27 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 5 turnovers.
Webb was stalked by Rodman all over the court, scoring only 18 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block and 4 turnovers.
Blood boil! Jordan's greatness is being able to stand up and accomplish incredible tasks in such difficult times. Lead by example and lead the team to victory.
After watching this game, Kobe Bryant knew that the Bulls had already gained momentum, and after Rodman found his form, other players would follow one by one. Even if Pippen doesn't return, their regular season record won't be too bad.
"This season may be a very difficult season, but there is only one winner, and that is me!"
Jordan spoke domineeringly at the media conference.
