The Zen master's idea was simple, and Richard saw through it at a glance.

That is to let Luke Longley come on the court, enhance his rebounding ability and interior defense, and not give Xiao Ao a chance to play a second offense!

……

"Jermaine, Jordan!"

Luke Longley had just come on the pitch when Richard immediately shouted loudly off the pitch.

Let Xiao Ao go to cover Jordan, as for Rodman, whose offensive ability is basically negligible, even if he gets the ball under the basket, he can't shoot at all.

And Luke Longlee's offensive ability is not very good, Big Ben only needs to take care of Luke Longley!

This is almost Richard's way of treating others with his own way!

In the last game, the Zen master was constantly using tactics to wear down the Trail Blazers' advantage points, but in this game, Richard took the lead and let the Zen master follow his own pace.

……

The game went on, and the managers of both sides fought in a variety of ways.

Jordan is naturally quite strong, but the overall strength gap between the two sides is not too big, and the head coach plays a very important role in this.

Due to the fact that the opening shooting percentage was quite good, the Trail Blazers players were playing more and more smoothly on the court.

Especially Kobe Bryant, he is not like Jordan, who can play face-to-face singles, he is more of a teammate's defense to shoot shots with the help of teammates' blocking......

The shooting percentage was quite good, and by the end of the half, Kobe Bryant had already made 4 of 7 three-pointers, and he had two two-pointers in the basket, scoring 16 points!

At halftime, the Trail Blazers led by seven points!

In the second half, Kobe Bryant's hand felt cold, but Robinson's point was powerful, and the three-point shot hit like a cannon!

Three-point feel this thing, will be contagious......

In the future of those three-point teams, once a player has a hot three-point hand, it is likely to drive the three-point feeling of other players.

Obviously, this is the situation of the Trail Blazers at the moment, Robinson, the scoring champion of the Trail Blazers, inherited Kobe's hot three-point touch!

The Bulls' offense is dominated by mid-range shots, while the Trail Blazers' side is dominated by three-point shooting.

This can be seen as a collision of styles between traditional basketball and post-modern basketball!

Some experts have made statistics that among the three main offensive weapons of NBA players, breakthrough layups, mid-range shots and three-point shooting, mid-range shots can create the lowest value......

The reason is that the offensive method of going to the basket is undoubtedly the highest hitting rate, and the vast majority of players can reach at least 50% of the shooting rate under the basket, and even some non-"eye-catching" players can reach more than 60% of the shooting rate under the basket.

For example, Curry in later generations, his best season with a shooting percentage under the basket was 69.6%, infinitely close to a 70% shooting rate, even if it was a poor season, it was maintained at more than 60%.

As for a tank-like player like James, the shooting percentage under the basket is even higher, and the highest level can reach nearly 80%.

And making fouls under the basket is also the easiest, much easier than shooting......

As for the three-point shooting, the shooting percentage is naturally the lowest among the three offensive methods, but it can't stand him from hitting a three-point shooter who can get a three-point score, and a three-point shooter with a 40% shooting rate is equivalent to a mid-range shooter with a 60% shooting rate......

Forty percent of three-point shooters, a big handful, NBA history can find dozens of them.

And a 60% hit percentage of mid-range shots? Even if he is a king of mid-pitch like Jordan, his mid-pitch is not up to the level of sixty percent.

Quite simply, it can be seen that of the three types of offense, a single shot is likely to create the least value.

This is also why basketball in later generations gradually began to play with a "combination of inside and outside", that is, a combination of basket and three-point play, the proportion of mid-range shooting is getting less and less, and those traditional quarterbacks who rely on mid-range shooting to eat are becoming less and less popular......

There is no doubt that the style of play that the Trailblazers are showing now is basically the same as that of basketball in later generations.

When Rashid didn't feel well in the second half, Richard brought on Bowen to play Pippen.

As a result, after Bowen came on the court, the three-point shot also blossomed, and in one and a half quarters of the game, he scored four three-pointers!

The fans in the stadium were completely crazy, such a three-point rain was unbelievable!

"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the entire Rose Garden Arena was completely boiling, and they won!

Won a ...... at the hands of the league's hegemon, the Bulls.

The Bulls can be said to have been completely stunned by the Trail Blazers' three-point shooting, Robinson scored a total of five three-pointers in the game, Kobe Bryant also had five, Bowen four, Curry Sr. had two, Martial Saints two, and Rashid one!

In a single game, the Trail Blazers scored nineteen three-pointers!

These 19 three-pointers alone gave the Trail Blazers a whopping 57 points!

Maybe in the eyes of future fans, a team scored 19 three-pointers in a single game, Mao doesn't count, you must know that the Rockets have the feat of averaging 15+ three-pointers per game in a single season, and I am afraid that there are at least 20 games this season that have hit 19 three-pointers.

And that's just one season for the Rockets......

So the Trail Blazers' 19 three-pointers in a single game is really nothing.

But in the current era, 19 three-pointers in a single game in the finals are enough to call it a miracle!

This is the grand final......

……

The Zen master also didn't expect the Trailblazers to be so crazy in this game, three points are really daring to shoot, really dare to score!

The shooting percentage is not particularly exaggerated, with 19 three-pointers consumed 47 shots, less than 41 percent three-point shooting.

But that was enough to give the unsuspecting Bulls a heavy blow and let them lose away!

……

After the game, the head coaches of the two sides started the commercial blowing mode again, and it didn't cost money to promote each other anyway, although it was casually blown.

Zen master Jackson praised Richard for playing a historic game tonight that could change the league's landscape for the rest of the day.

Richard, on the other hand, praised the Zen master for using soldiers like a god and building the Bulls into the most powerful team in NBA history.

……

After playing their first two home games, the Trail Blazers will start their next road trip with two consecutive road trips.

In the finals G3, what shocked the entire basketball circle was that Richard once again led the Trail Blazers to win a game, although in the end it was a narrow victory of 2 points, but in any case, the Blazers are now holding a 2:1 lead!

Before the finals began, no one could have predicted the current situation!

What they expected more was that the Trail Blazers would hold on to one of their home courts at most, and then lose two of the Bulls' home games in a row to lose 4-1 to the Bulls.

Even after the first game, countless people felt that the Trail Blazers were likely to be swept by the Bulls, because the performance of the two sides really looked like there was a bit of a gap.
