Chapter 308: The Last Dance, God's Inheritance!
But the fans soon found themselves cheering when Jordan ...... Not even reaching out to them.
He took Yao Ming's arm around him, and the little bird leaned there like a human.
It's not that Jordan's orientation has suddenly changed, it's that he's too tired.
He now felt like he couldn't lift his knees heavily.
If it weren't for Yao Ming, he would probably be able to sit on the ground.
This is the consequence of a 40-year-old basketball god forcibly opening the gods to the earth.
You can do what you can, but the years will also warn you.
Yao Ming also found out, he hugged Jordan and waved to the fans while walking to the bench and sitting down.
After resting for a while, Jordan gritted his teeth and stood up when it was time for the two sides to shake hands.
Probably, he may not be able to play in the next game.
But soon, he took a deep breath and went to shake hands with the Mavericks.
The members of the Mavericks are all paying tribute to Jordan.
Jordan enjoyed it.
"Next game, I'll end the series."
But there is always something special, Sun Hao said in a firm tone after paying tribute to Jordan.
Jordan's performance tonight proved why he can be so great, that kind of mental power and willpower, Sun Hao felt the most as an opponent.
But that also gave him a fighting spirit, and all he wanted to do now was start the next fight right away and win it back.
"I'll wait."
Jordan replied with a smile.
He felt that Sun Hao was a little like himself.
Even at this moment, he suddenly felt that his knees had become light again.
……
2 to 3.
When the Mavericks won three games in a row and took a 3-0 lead, I am afraid no one would have thought that the Wizards would be able to win two games in a row.
But that's what happened right now.
Q: Are Dallas fans panicking?
Most people are still a little panicked.
Although there has never been a 0-3 comeback in the history of the NBA, what if you are history?
Before history was made, no one felt that it would be their turn.
Q: Are the Mavericks players panicking?
Actually, I didn't panic that much.
This is the difference between the mentality of watching and playing.
As opponents, they revere Jordan's last game, and are even willing to call it a "miracle."
But in fact, they can also feel that Jordan has reached the end of his strong crossbow.
No matter how strong a person's spiritual power is, he can't bear such a toss.
After that kind of hard work, Jordan is lucky not to be reimbursed for the same season as last season.
Of course, the experience of the last game has already sounded the alarm bell for the Mavericks players.
Maybe Jordan will run out of energy in the next game, but maybe he can still play well with willpower?
Or, what about Yao Ming's career night again?
After being chased from 3-0 to 3-2, they could not afford to make any more mistakes.
During the three-day break, the Mavericks practiced almost the entire time.
And what you see in their faces is not panic, but energy.
They didn't rely on luck to reach the finals, they made it all the way, and their self-confidence was very strong.
Even optimistically, wouldn't it be better to lift the first championship trophy in team history at home?
On June 15, after a five-game battle, the Wizards and Mavericks moved to Dallas once again to face off.
This is the penultimate game of the Finals, which can also be understood as the Mavericks' last match point.
Because if the game is really dragged into a tie-break, then the two sides are actually equivalent to being on the same starting line again, and there is no match point.
Or to put it another way, it's the Mavericks' final dominant game.
There were rumors before the game that Jordan might miss the game due to a knee injury, but Jordan appeared on the scene in a game uniform before the game, and the rumors were self-defeating.
At the scene, there are still many celebrities and celebrities.
And as in the past two games, Stern, as well as the league staff, were there.
Since the Mavericks took a 3-0 lead, they've had to be ready for a championship ceremony every game.
It's just that they have been "no-show" twice.
Scarlett also came to the scene.
I heard that Sun Hao's finals had not been going well recently, so she put her work aside first.
The pre-game warm-up was over, and the starters on both sides appeared one after another.
Sharp-eyed fans noticed that Jordan was wearing thick knee pads on both of his knees.
It seems that the pre-game rumors are not entirely groundless, and Jordan's knee situation is not good.
"Toot!"
The game started quickly, and fans quickly turned their attention from Jordan's knee to the game.
This time, Dampier jumped first to bring the ball back to half-court, which was also his first jump win over Yao Ming in the finals.
As soon as the game began, the Mavericks sent a different signal than the previous game.
And soon, this signal was strengthened.
After Sun Hao and Nowitzki blocked and dismantled, Nowitzki went out and missed a three-point shot after receiving the ball.
But Sun Hao aimed at the landing point of the long rebound, grabbed the offensive rebound and went directly to the inside, causing Yao Ming's defensive foul!
Sun Hao adjusted his breathing and hit both free throws.
The Mavericks came out on top.
The Wizards' offense, the ball was in Yao Ming's hands, and Jordan fell into the distance to contain it.
Yao Ming turned to attack the basket, and Nowitzki quickly contracted to help the defense.
Yao Ming passes the ball to Leitner on the baseline.
"Smack!"
However, the ball didn't arrive, and Bodi Loga came out from behind and broke the ball directly!
The Mavericks even turned their heads and ran fast offense, except for Dampier, the remaining four people turned almost synchronously.
Sun Hao received a pass from Bodi Loga, and the fast break attracted the defense and then gave it to Bale, who received the ball and flew to the layup to score 2 points.
4 to 0!
The audience burst into cheers.
It was only then that the fans realized what that signal was.
Whether it's Sun Hao's frontcourt rebounds or Bodi Loga's steals, the Mavericks showed 100% concentration tonight!
The person who said to Jordan that he wanted to win was Sun Hao, but it was everyone on the Mavericks who made up his mind to win tonight!
Yao Ming chose to attack the basket by himself, but the Mavericks still contracted in advance.
This is the same way that O'Neal and Duncan were dealt with him.
Yao Ming was only in the second grade at this time, and his performance under this level of defense was greatly limited.
He chose to turn and lean back, but it was too difficult, the ball bounced off the front of the basket, and the rebound was also collected by Dampier.
After almost two minutes of play, the Wizards had yet to score.
By the time it was five minutes old, the score on the field was already 11-2!
The Mavericks were on offense, but the Wizards only scored 2 points with Yao Ming's free throws!
In fact, the past few games have shown the difference in strength between the two teams.
Stern has a wave, Jordan has a wave, and it was forcibly renewed two waves before.
But this thing is like the o'clock, the time will always come.
Coupled with the Mavericks' concentration tonight, the Wizards, like the first three games, didn't have much to parry.
Van Gundy called a timeout.
Although his on-the-spot response is average, the situation is so collapsed that everyone can see it.
Coming back from the timeout, Jordan was on the ball.
Some fans watching the game in front of the TV were excited.
In the face of adversity, only Jordan can save the Wizards.
Just like the tie-break in the East Finals and the fifth game of the Finals, they are looking forward to Jordan's "miracle" again.
In fact, not only the fans, Van Gundy also pinned his hopes on Jordan.
Jordan singled out Bell, and the footsteps shook continuously.
But it's this attempt that allows people to see the difference between him and the past few games.
The reason why basketball players' knees are prone to injury is that they jump more suddenly.
On the contrary, if you want to jump high suddenly, you have to have a good knee.
Jordan clearly doesn't have that right now.
In the end, he couldn't get rid of Bell, and forcibly turned around and leaned back to shoot, which was not good in terms of timing or effect.
Bell interfered and his shot ended up smashing into the frame and the rebound was picked up by Dampier.
Jordan's singles, failed!
The fans at the scene sighed.
Although it was just a ball, everyone realized that Jordan's knee pad was not tied to watch.
The god of heaven in the last game has hollowed out the body of the 40-year-old basketball god.
And at this time, fans also saw that Jordan's opening containment was different from the past few games.
In the past, it was a tactical requirement, but tonight it was a last resort.
The Mavericks played a fast break, and Nowitzki dunked after receiving the ball, reproducing the "I'm super fierce" picture.
13 to 2!
The score difference has been stretched to double digits!
"It's time."
On the commentary bench, Kenny Smith has already made up his mind.
Although the game has only started for a short time, the difference in state and strength shown by the two teams has made the game not much suspenseful.
Cole didn't speak, but basically acquiesced.
After being boarded twice, the Mavericks' focus on the game reached the highest point of the series.
The Wizards can't win against a Maverick like this.
The ball is still in Jordan's hands with the Wizards.
However, this time Jordan did not attack Bell directly, but signaled Yao Ming to pull to the right high post to block the demolition.
Yao Ming's flexibility was very strong, Bell didn't go around, and after taking it apart, Jordan misplaced and faced Dampier.
Jordan's continuous shaking, although it was not fast because of his knees as just now, and the amplitude was not large.
But Dampier was much slower to react than Bell, and Dampier couldn't keep up with Jordan's stop-and-go mid-range after a breakaway.
"Huh!"
With a crisp sound, Jordan's mid-distance, in!
The god of basketball has given everyone another big surprise!
And the surprise wasn't over yet, back on the defensive end, he suddenly made a diagonal save and cut off Bodiloga's pass!
He rushed to the front court one by one and flew ...... Score a layup.
A misplaced single, a steal and a fast-break layup.
Although you can see the changes in Jordan due to the impact of his knee on both balls, you can also feel his strong willpower!
God, still God!
13 to 6!
Jordan's 4 points were life-saving 4 points.
And being infected by his spirit, Yao Ming gave Nowitzki a big risk on the defensive end.
Back on the offensive end, he received a pass from Jordan again, turned around and scored 2+1 under the bag of Dampier and Nowitzki!
After the goal, Yao Ming waved his fist and shouted, at this moment he made people feel what a little giant is.
Yao Ming's additional punishment is also available.
13 to 9!
The Wizards, led by Jordan, launched a wave of 7-0 offensive and narrowed the gap to 4 points!
On the commentary bench, Smith and Cole looked at each other, they were ...... Milk the Wizards?
Sun Hao held the ball in the front court and motioned to Bodi Loga to block it for him.
After taking it apart, he fell in love with Jordan.
There are many people who hack Jordan's EQ, but no one hacks Jordan's ball quotient.
The former is not black, and the latter is not black.
Jordan's past performances have confirmed this.
However, what Sun Hao could see was that Jordan was indeed at the end of his crossbow as they thought.
The NBA is like a battlefield, and sympathy for opponents is cruelty to oneself.
So the best option at this time is to beat Jordan down.
Continuous cross-step shaking, plus a crotch pull-back after the first step of breakout.
After a series of finishing moves by Sun Hao, Jordan ...... It was shaken away!
His knees affect him not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end.
Sun Hao's three-point shot.
But at this moment, Jordan, who was shaken away, pounced again!
Strong personal willpower allowed Jordan to burst out with amazing strength.
Sun Hao made a three-point shot against Jordan's defense.
With the wide eyes of the fans at the scene, the ball flew past Jordan's fingertips and swirled through a perfect parabola in the air.
"Huh!"
Sun Hao, still threw the ball in!
“sun!”
With the shouts of the host on the spot, the National Route Center Arena fell into boiling again.
After the Wizards played a wave of chasing points, Sun Hao stood up! And it's a one-on-one goal against Jordan!
The momentum of the Mavericks rose all at once!
The Wizards' offense, Yao Ming attacked the basket and met the bag again, and he didn't turn around and shoot.
The one-on-two like that in the last round was exciting, but Yao Ming's current strength is not enough for him to be like that all the time.
If he could, he would already be on the same level as Duncan and O'Neal.
Looking back, Sun Hao continued to play Jordan in a misplaced position, this time he shook off Jordan's three-point feints, and after Jordan pounced, he accelerated and squeezed through.
Jordan couldn't keep up if he wanted to follow anymore, so he could only watch Sun Hao burst into the free throw line.
18 to 9!
The Wizards worked hard to chase the score, and Sun Hao's personal 5-0 offensive opened the score difference again!
Jordan's eyes fell on Sun Hao's body at this time, and his expression was a little complicated.
Sun Hao's personal score is equivalent to extinguishing the flame of hope ignited by the Wizards, which makes him complain a little about Sun Hao.
However, Sun Hao's performance and the temperament of the game he showed made him feel very pleased.
Jordan also had a mid-range shot after a cover in the frontcourt.
He didn't play as hard tonight as he did in the previous games, but he played really smart.
But looking back, it was Sun Hao again, and it was the misplaced single Jordan again, and the three-point shot after shaking it off...... Again!
21 to 11!
He personally scored 8 points in a row to stretch the difference to double digits!
And this scoring pattern of three consecutive rounds tells the Wizards bluntly: if you don't replace Jordan, he will play to the end!
Jordan, looking at Sun Hao's eyes, was not angry, but full of love.
He can finally retire from the league with peace of mind.
Because of this alliance, there are already successors. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
