Chapter 262: Victory, Battle of Legends!
(More than 10,000 words big chapter, so the update is a little late, sorry)
"The final three minutes of the game are about to start, Larry, how do you think the Jazz will attack next? Originally, the Jazz team could not call a timeout before this, but to play a counterattack with an unstable foothold of the Rockets, although the Rockets' defensive intensity is very high, but the offensive efficiency of the Jazz and the Rockets in the past four minutes is extremely high, but after this timeout, it is really difficult for the Jazz to play a positional battle"
When the Jazz and Rockets returned to the court after calling the last official timeout with less than three minutes left in the fourth quarter, Collins on the sidelines looked at the two teams walking towards the court and said with some regret.
As the head coach of the Bulls and Jordan for a year, Collins is also a famous coach, if it were him, he would never call a timeout at the last moment of this game, although the Rockets played extremely combative at the last moment because of the excitement of Drexler's exit, but in Collins's view, the Jazz still have an advantage, although the score is temporarily behind, but the gap behind is not very large, as long as it persists until the end when Olajuwon can't, the Jazz will win, which is the safest approach, And Jerry Sloan's approach of calling a timeout when his team's fast attack and the opponent's inability to defend is not wise to look at.
At the very least, it is difficult for Collins to accept, after all, Olajuwon's defensive strength is too strong, and it is a bit difficult to capture the *long*wind* literary rocket in positional warfare!
And the way the Jazz and the Rockets ended up playing like this in this game, which was actually very surprising to him. From the beginning of the first quarter, the Jazz's slaughter looked like the Rockets were about to be swallowed, to the second quarter, when the Rockets fought back strongly, the game became full of suspense again, and when the Jazz played more decisively after the two teams adjusted after halftime. The Rockets are in trouble again, and this trouble has directly pushed the Rockets to the edge of the cliff, if it weren't for Drexler's sacrificing his style of play, this team would have been confessed a long time ago, and what no one expected was that Drexler, who was almost equivalent to committing suicide for the team, completed the suicide, and the shock from the Rockets guard actually brought the Rockets back to life. Even the team now sees hope of winning.
And the hope of winning like this seems not small, which makes Collins have an incredible feeling, he never thought that such a game would be played so magnificently, nor did he think that this game would be so intense between the two teams. Even this pizza seems to be the most important game of the playoffs of the season for both teams.
"If I were Jerry Sloan, I would call a timeout at this time, even if it would interrupt the team's counterattack"
After Larry Bird thought for a moment, Collins looked at his partner in disbelief.
It's not the same as Collins. Larry Bird is not a head coach. He has never been a head coach before, and although he has been moving closer to the thinking of an NBA head coach in recent times, trying to make himself aware of these 'nannies' in the NBA, it is clear that no matter how much Larry Bird tries to make himself understand the thinking of these head coaches, he is still a player, and he is still a player.
As a head coach, Collins can use tactical thinking to gauge the situation of the game. As long as the tactics of their own team are not ineffective, the execution of the players is still sufficient. Then there is no need to make changes, but Larry Bird knows that although the Jazz's tactics are still effective, the Jazz, who have been trying to take the initiative of the game into their own hands since the beginning of the second half, have lost the initiative in the game at the end of the game!
Why is it that when Olajuwon is exhausted and the game is long, why is the Jazz active, and when the time is short, why is the Jazz passive? A lot of people don't understand, but Larry Bird knows very well that if it's him, even if he really doesn't have any fitness in the last minute of a game that must be won, he can finally carry it, Larry Bird thinks he can do it, can Olajuwon do it? It's only three minutes, gritting his teeth and passing, and the Jazz can look at Olajuwon calmly for a long time, and when it's not long, he can't continue to watch Olajuwon and the Rockets do well.
"This is a timeout that can change the shape of the game!"
Although it has always been a Sloan black, but this time, Larry Bird actually gave Jerry Sloan a thumbs up, which made Collins a little incredible, in his opinion, it should be Jerry Sloan's mistake, but in the end it was appreciated by Larry Bird, which is indeed a bit incredible.
Of course, Collins and Larry Bird had some disagreements about Jerry Sloan's timeout at this timeout, but the Jazz players who returned to the court did not have any disagreements, and they had a complete understanding of how their team should play in the last three minutes of the game, Lin Han was responsible for offense and chasing points, while the rest of them needed to do a good job of the entire defense, and they definitely couldn't let the big man of the Rockets have any chances!
Therefore, when the Jazz team finished the baseline ball, Stockton advanced to the front court under Kenny Smith's close defense, and handed the ball to Lin Han at the top of the arc with almost no hesitation, and did not try to block and dismantle with Malone, and at this time Malone, he did not have any intention of cooperating with Stockton, after half time, Malone, ran directly to the basket and waist, and Polynis took Olajuwon directly to the basket, As for Stockton and Russell, they all stood a little higher on the two baseline three-point lines!
The four players of the Jazz team on the court all pulled away, and the Jazz players did not have any cooperation, and directly put a singles posture for Lin Han!
When seeing this scene, even the Rockets fans on the sidelines were exclaimed, after all, at this time of the game, every offense is extremely important, for the Jazz team, which is 4 points behind, if this goal cannot be scored, the next goal will be scored if Olajuwon scores. Then this team is in danger, and it is clear that even Tomjanovic did not think that the Jazz would not cooperate at all when attacking in the final moments, and Kenny Smith, who originally thought that Stockton would play with other players, chased Stockton to the bottom corner of the three. After seeing Stockton standing there directly, Kenny Smith was stunned for a while, and then ran directly to the top of the arc, but after being stunned for a while, when he saw Lin Han leaning in front of Maxwell and doing a sideways one-handed ball movement, the Rockets point guard quickly calmed down.
He almost forgot about it, although Lin Han's passing was not very good, and his ability to break the bag was simply simple and rude, but this guy's horizontal pass and jump pass were quite accurate. If he goes to help defend, after Lin Han directly passes to Stockton, Stoke and I are unguarded. Directly facing Olajuwon under the basket, if this small point guard rushes directly to the basket, Olajuwon will face Malone even if the defense is strong. Polinice and Stockton. It's very difficult for him to do, after all, Robert Holly's helper is almost negligible, because before Robert Holly helped him, I'm afraid he would have been dealt with by Malone, if it wasn't for Olajuwon wiping Robert Holly's ass, he would have been violently killed by Malone in this series, which is not to say that Robert Holly is not strong, as a sophomore rookie. He's good enough, it's just that Malone's rank is too high. For Robert Hawley, who has only made a cameo appearance for half a season, if he can really withstand Ma Long, then either Ma Long is a fool, then he is a god, a god like Lin Han, it is obvious that Ma Long is not a fool, and Robert Hawley is not a god.
So the experienced Kenny Smith did not let go of his defender Stockton, but directly beckoned Cassel from one bottom line to the other bottom line not to stand in front of Russell, and to quickly go up and pinch Lin Han.
It's just that the rookie of the Rockets was stunned for a moment after being shouted by Kenny Smith, and then reacted immediately and killed directly to the top of the arc, and just when Cassel was killing at the top of the arc and preparing to wrap Lin Han, at this time Lin Han had already sat on Maxwell step by step to the free throw line!
And when Maxwell was crushed by Lin Han step by step from the three-point line all the way to the free throw line, the Rockets guard looked extremely ugly, when Drexler defended Lin Han, Lin Han could not push Drexler, and although he had worked extremely hard, he was like a child in front of Lin Han, really like a child!
In fact, if you say that in the position of a scoring guard, Maxwell is actually not short, and his height of 1.93 meters is actually not bad, but such a good height is a little ineffective in the face of Lin Han, especially Lin Han is not only taller than him, but also his strength, in this case, when Cassel was almost about to rush to the defensive position, Lin Han was sitting on Maxwell directly, and the Rockets' scoring guard directly withdrew more than one step inside. And when he felt that Maxwell on his body had disappeared, Lin Han threw the basketball in his hand with an unguarded back jumper at the free throw line at the moment when Kassel arrived!
And at this time, when Lin Han was flying in the air, Cassel could only stand aside and look at Lin Han dumbfounded, he had worked hard to come up and attack, but it was still slow, and when Lin Han threw the ball out, he directly brushed it into the net with a hollow sound, and the scene was originally seen that Jazz directly made Lin Han singles a little uproar The Rocket fans were all silent at this time!
1oo to 1o2, Lin Han relied on his body element that was one grade higher than all the outside lines of the Rockets, and scored directly singles to narrow the difference between the two sides to two points!
"Very good shooting options, Lin Han did not choose to pull out outside the three-point line under Maxwell's close defense, but directly sat on Maxwell and then shot backwards and jumpers! Lin Han showed his physical talent and unparalleled shooting skills very perfectly, turning his back to the back jumper, when Lin Han was at the most critical time of the game, he chose to end the attack with the attack he is famous for, and this is already Lin Han's 4o point in this game, he and Olajuwon only scored 8 points in the first half, and both of them have scored 4o points in the second half! ”
When Lin Han hit the key shot with his trademark Jordan-style back-to-back turn-back jumper, former Bulls head coach Collins on the sidelines jumped up excitedly at this time. The pressure of Lin Han's result this time is quite large, although it is not a lore ball, nor is it a quasi-lore. But in terms of the impact of this goal, it is definitely a winning or losing goal that affects the outcome of this game!
In this case, when Lin Han, a player who originally gave people a reckless feeling, was able to shoot the basketball into the basket so calmly with the most reasonable offensive way when he had so many offensive methods, not to mention that Collins was shocked, even Tomjanovic was about the same at this time!
"Sam. Don't be stunned, get ready to attack! ”
When Lin Han pushed Maxwell away and completed perhaps the most critical offense of the Jazz in this game under Kassel's nose. Cassel was a little stunned by Lin Han's momentum, and at this time, Olajuwon, who also looked a little ugly, had already shouted at the rookie, and after being sobered up by Olajuwon's shouting, the Rockets' taste quickly took over the baseline ball from Olajuwon's hands. Straight forward with the ball.
Originally, Cassel was still waiting for the Jazz to come forward and press. But to the surprise of Cassel and all the players of the Rockets, the Jazz team did not press them tightly after completing this offense, not only did they not press them in the backcourt, but they did not press them in the frontcourt!
And what surprised all the players of the Rockets was that when they were advancing the ball to the offensive position, when Cassel looked up, Russell, who was defending him at this time, didn't care about him at all at this time and went directly to the inside to pinch Olajuwon, not only Russell went to the inside to pinch Olajuwon. Even Malone was standing not far from Olajuwon at this time, ready to go up and attack at any time. In this case, Kassel was almost stunned.
As a rookie who was entrusted with important tasks by the team, of course he hopes that he can complete the key attack at critical moments like Lin Han, but Lin Han has such rights and abilities, but he does not have such rights and abilities, even if he looks like no one is defending one step away now, he can't really pull himself up and attack, he needs to see Olajuwon's instructions, only Olajuwon signals him to attack at this time, he can attack!
Is it just that Olajuwon will let him attack? When he looked up and saw that Olajuwon, who was about to fall into the three-man bag, had already leaned on Polinis, he knew that he could not have the offensive opportunities and rights that Lin Han did.
"Sam, pass the ball!"
When Olajuwon shouted again, Kassel quickly burst into a burst of excitement, and hung the basketball in his hand into the hand of Olajuwon on the inside without any hesitation, and when he saw the moment Olajuwon passed the ball, neither Malone nor Russell did not hesitate to Olajuwon's place, at this time they could not throw any hesitation, if Kassel threw it himself just now, maybe this can also prove that Olajuwon did not want to come completely by himself, and they still have scruples when defending.
But now, Olajuwon is ready to come by himself, and he has made it clear that even if his teammates have a good chance, he will come by himself to play the 'cancer' mode, so it is really stupid for the Jazz to hesitate about the origin!
"Hakim, don't be too arrogant, you're not young now, I don't believe you still have enough physical strength to complete such an attack in the last few minutes!"
The moment Olajuwon received the ball on the inside, Malone and Russell arrived!
And at this time, Olajuwon is facing a three-person attack!
Lin Han, who saw this scene on the outside, was also a little surprised at this time, although he knew that Olajuwon was a veteran cancer player before him, but Olajuwon rarely really played such a cancer attack method in the game now, obviously there are two teammates on the periphery who can pass the ball, and a pass is an empty teammate, and he himself also has the ability to pass, but he just doesn't pass the ball, but prepares to go on his own.
Although Olajuwon did not start to attack at this time, but as a cancer to a tumor, Lin Han judged that this guy would never pass the ball, and just like Lin Han imagined, when Olajuwon leaned against Polinis, his hands were tightly holding the basketball, and his body began to rotate between left and right under the basket, Lin Han knew that this guy was ready to attack!
And when Olajuwon did not dribble the ball under the basket against the three-man bag, but constantly shook his shoulders and body on the spot, and directly flew Malone and Russell who came up to help the defense, and then, after leaning on Polinis's dribble, he picked up the ball again and made two extremely wonderful basket shakes to shake Polinis's away again. When he jumped up and dunked successfully, Lin Han outside was directly stunned, really stunned!
Don't say that Lin Han was stunned. Even at this time, the fans of the Rockets were stunned at this time, what kind of shocking action is this? Dream Steps? No, dribbling feints? What's more, it's just a few virtual shakings, that's right, just a few virtual shakings, whether it's Marlon or Russell or Polynes all of them are shaken away!
"One person in front of him. One person behind him, one person on his side, when an inside player is caught between three people. When he can't dribble, he simply uses his own dribbling to shake all the players around him, and among these three, there is an MVP in the league who defends for a while, and a defensive warrior who is above the level of the league's outside. A center in the league with the title of beast. In the entire league, only Olajuwon can do this, and even in the entire history of the NBA, there are only a few two or three people who can do this! ”
After a brief silence at the Compaq Center, when the Rockets fans at the scene woke up again, the scene almost seemed to boil and burst, and the whole stadium was shouting Olajuwon's name, and at this time, Larry Bird on the sidelines was also full of shock, which reminded him of his former teammate McHale. The greatest basket foot-type interior in league history, although McHale and Olajuwon are called the two strongest footsteps in league history. But there is still a difference, Olajuwon's footsteps with the ball and dribbling are better, his dream footsteps are like this, because it is more complicated and easy to walk, so many times it takes some dribbling, and McHale's steps under the basket are more simple, which is also McHale is almost full of play, any part of the body can play the opponent to death, to talk about this kind of virtual shaking under the basket, if McHale thinks that he is second, no one dares to be first, even Olajuwon is the same.
It's just that what shocked Larry Bird was that Olajuwon's non-dribbling under the basket just now was no worse than McHale, really no worse than McHale, and with the fact that this guy was already stronger than McHale's footsteps under the basket with the ball and dribbling, when he thought of this, Larry Bird shook his head with a wry smile.
As McHale's teammate, he began to think that Olajuwon's basket footwork was better than McHale's, which surprised him to the fullest.
"It's amazing, it's amazing, 1o4 to 1oo, Olajuwon scored a dunk under the basket, and the difference between the two sides came to 4 points again, and there are only 2 minutes and 2o seconds left in this game!"
When Larry Bird compared McHale and Olajuwon in his heart, Collins next to him had already stood up directly at this time, especially after seeing Lin Han's backward jumper hit, Olajuwon immediately returned one, which reminded the former Bulls head coach of the first time the Rockets and Jazz teams met, and the last moment was also a big battle between Lin Han and Olajuwon, that time, Olajuwon lost, and this time, what will be the result? !
When he thought about this, Collins felt like he couldn't stop at all!
"Boy, I will never allow defeat in this game!"
When Collins was thinking about what the score between Lin Han and Olajuwon would be this time, Olajuwon, who came down from the basket, walked back directly in the face of the somewhat shocked gazes of Malone and Polinis, and came to Lin Han, the Rocket center with a sinister face directly found Lin Han.
In the face of Olajuwon's provocation, Lin Han gritted his teeth a little, he was not afraid to score points with Olajuwon, although he was on the outside Olajuwon is the inside line, and Olajuwon was born with a better success rate, but although Lin Han was not afraid to score points with Olajuwon, but seeing the four-point difference on the sideline scoreboard, Lin Han gritted his teeth and finally made that decision!
"He's such a nuisance, but I can't afford to lose this game!"
Looking at Olajuwon's back, Lin Han thought fiercely in his heart.
"Lin, are you alright?"
Seeing that Lin Han had been looking at Olajuwon with some concern, Stockton asked with some concern, he was really worried about Lin Han at this time, because Olajuwon's appearance on the offensive end just now was too strong, so strong that even he had a worry in his heart about whether he could beat the Rockets in this game.
The Jazz's defense of Olajuwon just now is a three-man defense that has reached the top! Malone, Polinis. Russell, no one can be regarded as a defensive giant, but these three giants were broken through so easily in front of Olajuwon. In this case, Lin Han is indeed prone to wavering confidence.
It's like facing the Jazz's pressing before, Olajuwon scored a goal, and Lin Han immediately hit a shot back, such a continuous cycle of cycles, even if Olajuwon's success rate is high, it is useless. The same can't pull the score, the current Jazz is like this, the strong Olajuwon can give the Jazz the illusion that no matter how they chase the score, they can't catch up. This delusion can be very hurtful.
Even a veteran like him is a little lacking in confidence, not to mention a young man like Lin Han, but to Stockton's great surprise, he originally thought that Lin Han was a little scared because Olajuwon was too strong. Unexpectedly, the Jazz shooting guard actually laughed.
"John. If you want to believe that I can lead the team to catch up with the score in this game, then I will definitely make you make the team reverse the score! ”
When Lin Han finished saying to Stockton with a smile, Ma Long, who was not far away, heard Lin Han's words, his body shook a little, and his eyes looked at Lin Han a little complicated.
"John, give me the ball when it's halftime."
When Lin Han finished saying with a smile, he got up and walked to the front, and at this time, Stockton was affected by the kind of confidence in Lin Han, and nodded almost subconsciously.
This is after Lin Han came to the team. For the first time, he overpowered Stockton in terms of love and momentum, and let Stockton be influenced by himself!
This also means: For the first time, Linham's influence on the pitch overshadowed Stockton as the leader of the team!
This also means that Lin Han at this time not only replaced the position of the core of Malone attack at the last moment, but also replaced the position of the leader of the Stockton team!
"I said, if you can win this game, you must win, no matter what the price is!"
After coming to the front court alone, when Lin Han stood at the three-point line at the top of the arc, this time was different from the last offense, when Lin Han stood at the top of the arc, not only did there be more players defending him, but also one more Cassel!
And when Stockton dribbled the ball across the half court, when he quickly handed the ball to Lin Han as agreed, at this time Kassel and Maxwell wrapped Lin Han just like Malone and Russell wrapped Olajuwon just now, Lin Han at the same time was the same as Olajuwon just now, teammates obviously have vacant positions, and Lin Han also has the ability to pass the ball horizontally, but Lin Han is not ready to choose to pass, but directly under the bag of Maxwell and Kassel, At the top of the arc, he was extremely chic sideways, holding the ball in one hand and lifting the basketball in his hand high!
And at this time, Lin Han made Maxwell and Kassel extremely embarrassed that the Jazz scoring guard didn't even look at these two people, as if these two people didn't exist, but looked at the big center of the Rockets on the inside, Olajuwon, and when Olajuwon on the inside noticed Lin Han, especially when he saw Lin Han actually smiling at him, the look on the center of the Rockets team was even more terrifying at this time.
"Larry, how do you think Lin Han will attack, according to the current shape of the Jazz team, Lin Han needs to play more reasonably like the last offense?"
At this time, Lin Han stood there with the ball in one hand and seemed to be thinking about the way to attack, and many people thought so, including the fans on the scene and Collins on the sidelines.
It's just that when everyone was thinking about how Lin Han would attack this ball, in the face of the defense of the two people, at this time, under the extremely shocked eyes of the Rocket fans in the audience, Lin Han actually pulled up directly in place, ready to throw three points directly!
And when Lin Han directly faced Maxwell and Kassel like this, Collins, who was still thinking about how Lin Han would attack, had already covered his mouth at this time, and he was afraid that if he didn't cover his mouth, Lin Han's offensive choice would make him directly scold the United States in front of the audience all over the world!
Although Kassel and Maxwell are indeed inferior to Lin Han in terms of height, Lin Han's offensive choice of treating the bag as nothing is still reasonable for the last attack!
"Start Maddie's Moment!"
Collins wanted to curse at this time, but at this time, Lin Han had already jumped up directly. And he had already thrown the basketball in his hand directly under the defense of Kassel and Maxwell, who were jumping up behind!
Although Lin Han's offensive choice is so bad that many people who support Lin Han's popularity in supporting the Jazz team want to scold their mothers, but with Lin Han's deeds in the NBA scoring world, even if it is a bad choice. It can also make people look forward to it, so although many people want to scold at this time, and many people have already cheered, but before the result of this ball comes out, no one dares to say anything, and almost everyone has their eyes on the basketball that was thrown out by Lin Han, including Olajuwon, who is already in the inside card position and is ready to grab the rebound!
And when Olajuwon stuck Malone and Polinis, he was ready to grab the rebound. When the extremely unreasonable three-point shot thrown out by Lin Han flew directly into the net, Lin Han's three-point shot was like a hammer smashed into Olajuwon's heart, and it also smashed into the hearts of Rocket fans. And at this time, Collins, who was covering his mouth on the sidelines, had already shouted a word that made the game still in front of the TV extremely exciting!
"A miracle moment?! Miracle moment?! Is Lin Han going to stage a miracle moment?! ”
When Collins, who was originally covering his mouth, shouted this word, even Larry Bird on the sidelines was excited, a miracle moment?!
"How is this possible?"
Thinking of this, Larry Bird looked at the scoreboard on the sideline almost in horror. Until the time when the Rockets only had two fouls in the fourth quarter. That's when Larry Bird breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that miracles need to match foul tactics at all times, and now naturally there are no such conditions, this should be an ordinary three-point shot by Lin Han, and Larry Bird breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of this.
Although he is a die-hard fan of Lin Han, Lin Han has staged miracle moments in the regular season and All-Star games, if it is in the playoffs. Especially in the playoffs, there can be a miracle moment, so this miracle moment should not be called a miracle moment. It should be called 'Lin Han's moment', which is a performance moment dedicated to Lin Han.
It's just that what made Larry Bird extremely shocked was that when Lin Han hit a three-point shot and dressed up the score as 1o3 to 1o4, the table of the next two teams, or the table of Lin Han and Olajuwon, was really completely out of his imagination!
With 2:O3 left in the game, Olajuwon scored another brilliant layup in the face of Russell, Malone and Polinis's bag after Linhan's three-point shot, and it also caused a foul on Polinis, Olajuwonga hit a free throw, and the score became 1o3-1o7
With 1 minute and 56 seconds left in the game, after receiving a pass from Malone's baseline, Lin Han quickly counterattacked, and under the siege and interception of the Rockets' three outside players, the Jazz shooting guard directly pulled up a three-point shot two steps away from the three-point line, and chased the score to 1o6 to 1o7 again
With 1 minute and 43 seconds left in the game, Olajuwon won the ball again on the inside, and before facing Malone's bag, he forced a layup in the face of Russell and Polinis, and the difference between the two sides became 1o6 to 1o9 three points again
And when there was 1 minute and 38 seconds left in the game, when Lin Han was still facing the Rockets' outside players outside the three-point line again, this time he pulled out his hand directly from three steps outside the three-point line, and when the basketball thrown out by Lin Han hit again in 1 minute and 35 seconds, the difference between the two sides was miraculously equalized!
And in just 35 seconds from 2 minutes 13 seconds to 1 minute 38 seconds, Lin Han scored 9 points on three three-pointers, and from 2 minutes 2o seconds to 1 minute 43 seconds, in just 37 seconds, Olajuwon scored 7 points on 3 of 2 points!
"It's terrible, it's terrible, these two are terrible!"
When Lin Han scored 11 points on 4-of-4 shooting and Olajuwon scored 9 points on 4-of-4 shooting in the past minute, Collins on the sidelines almost trembled and roared at this time.
Although Olajuwon is indeed a huge advantage over the Jazz's interior, and he is in excellent form now, and the same is true for Linham, but when the two of them once again devastated the other players on the court like the two met for the first time in the regular season, all the Rockets fans on the sidelines were already a little crazy at this time, and Collins was also like that.
Especially the way these two play at this time, they only have each other in their eyes. There was no one else, no tactical concept, no time rush. How to come, no matter how far it is, how many people defend, these two people are like a cancer, regardless of the impact of the basket!
And what makes people have nothing to say is that even if these two people are cancerous at this time, the coaches of the two teams on the sidelines. Or maybe the players of both teams on the field didn't think about interrupting the two, because everyone could see that the two were already in the groove!
"Boy. You're great, you're really good, and no one in the whole league can force me like that, and no one can force Clyde like that. But I said it. The winner of this game must be me! ”
When Olajuwon equalized the score with Lin Han's three-point shot, the Rockets player pinched Malone and Polynis under the basket, and once again shook Malone and Polynis ruthlessly dizzy, and when he went directly to the basket, when he walked past Lin Han to return to defense, the Rockets player almost roared and shouted his own declaration of victory to Lin Han!
At 1 minute and 12 seconds, with Olajuwon's 11th consecutive score, the Rockets scored again. 111 to 1o9!
"As I said, I won this game. It has to be me! ”
There are 5o seconds left in the game, when Lin Han was almost surrounded by three people from the Rockets without the ball, one person ran closely, and one person surrounded the defense, and finally got a pass in Stockton's hand, at this time Lin Han did not have any hesitation, and opened the Maddie moment twice in a game for the first time!
And when the three-point shot thrown by Lin Han hit again, and finally the Jazz finally scored again in the fourth quarter, 112-111, at this time, almost all the Rockets fans on the sidelines were already crazy by Lin Han and Olajuwon.
Not to mention that these fans are going crazy, even the players on both sides of the field and the two head coaches on the sidelines are about the same, who can stand such an alternating increase in the score?!
So with 38 seconds left in the game, when Olajuwon finally dragged his tired pace, turned around and scored the ball with difficulty in the last turn, scoring 13 points in a row, and once again turning the score into 113-112
Then, with 3o seconds left in the game, when Lin Han hit another three-point shot, hitting five three-pointers in a row, and turning the final score into 115-113, the Rockets players on the court were already a little collapsed.
It's not just that Olajuwon has been dragged down a little by Lin Han, but more importantly, when Olajuwon hits every two-point shot, and Lin Han comes back with a three-point shot, it's simply trembling.
Olajuwon's two-point can't be defended, while Linham's three-pointer can't be defended?
In this case, when Lin Han hit a three-point shot with 3o seconds left in the game, there were only 28 seconds left for the Rockets!
At this time, Tomjanovic, who had already been frightened by Lin Han's three-point shots, especially looking at the rocket players who had collapsed a little, finally called a timeout at this time, and this timeout also interrupted Olajuwon and Lin Han's almost crazy state!
"The Rockets lost this game!"
When Tomjanovic watched that Olajuwon had been a little exhausted and the Rockets players had collapsed, and finally called a timeout when the score was 2 points behind, Larry Bird on the sidelines said with a sigh after being shocked.
This game is like this, this is no longer a game of strength, Lin Han's consecutive three-point hits, and Olajuwon's consecutive baskets, these two people's state can not even be described as hot, maybe for these two people, they may not have such a will in their lives to support such a state, this game to this time, the fight is no longer strength but will.
Especially when the will of other players is almost about to collapse, Lin Han and Olajuwon can lead the team to victory, and in the end, when the Rockets' Tomjanovic called off the Rockets' offense, it means that he no longer believes that Olajuwon, who is almost unable to walk, can still score.
If the Rockets can't even trust Olajuwon at this time, who else can they trust? Those players who have almost collapsed? If Drexler is here at this time, then there is still a player on this team who can be trusted, but Drexler is no longer there!
And after the Rockets took a timeout, when Olajuwon dragged his tired body in continuous turns and failed to get rid of the defense of PJ Brown and Malone, Russell and Stockton, and helplessly distributed the ball to Kenny Smith on the outside, and Kenny Smith actually shot a three-point shot with 12 seconds left in the game, not only the interior Olajuwon was like ashes, even Kenny Smith was the same at this time!
And the Rockets fans on the sidelines were all stunned and in disbelief at this time!
A shooter, a marksman actually threw a three-stick on his best skill?!
How much psychological pressure does it take for a shooter to throw such a shot?!
And when Kenny Smith missed a three-point shot, and finally the Rockets used foul tactics Stockton hit both free throws, and the Jazz defeated the Rockets 117-113 on the road.
In the locker room of the Rockets, Drexler, who watched the entire last half of the fourth quarter, saw Olajuwon's isolated loss to Lin Han again, and Olajuwon's lonely back after the game, the Rockets shooting guard has been hiding his face in the locker room and crying.
"Although this game was won and lost, it was the best Western Conference Finals I have ever seen, and it was destined to be a legendary battle!"
This is the only sentence from Larry Bird after this game! (To be continued......)
