Burrell did pass the ball to Longley.

Since Jordan drew the attention of three Knicks players and Rodman blocked it for Longley, Longley had a very good shot.

He didn't pass the ball, he threw it himself.

The Australian center forward has a good mid-range shooting ability, and the ball fell into the net with a "swish", 2:2!

In the eyes of fans, the Bulls' offense is no different from their previous offenses, they are all small forward organizations, but Li Wei understands in his heart that the tactics of others have only run half of them, and the real core is Langley.

Because of the change in the situation on the field, it is common for the playmaker to fail to organize the attack and directly become a scoring point.

Li Wei wanted to call a timeout, if Longley acted as the first playmaking point of the Bulls today, he really caught the Knicks off guard, and the tactics had to be adjusted.

Chuck Daley saw Li Wei's thoughts, and chuckled: "Don't worry, let's wait for two rounds." ”

Li Wei nodded.

The Knicks attack.

Before the ball was brought to the frontcourt, the Bulls players looked at Phil Jackson out of the corner of their eyes. They had a hunch that the Knicks would continue to bully Burrell with Garnett.

Phil Jackson certainly understood this, and he shouted, "Dennis, change the guard!" ”

Dennis Rodman, the big flower worm, dyed his hair white today, but the top of his head was an irregular red, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a big aunt towel thrown away by others.

Hearing Phil Jackson's words, he reluctantly switched places with Burrell.

Rodman is reluctant to defend Garnett, not because he is afraid of Garnett, but because Garnett is now playing small forward and is too far away from the basket.

The goal of the big worm is now to grab more than two dozen rebounds per game, and there is nothing else to ask for, if you are not under the basket, how can you grab this rebound?

However, Rodman changed the defense of Garnett, and the effect was immediate.

Although he is only 2.01 meters tall, half a head shorter than Garnett, Rodman's endless interference and small movements can't even stand O'Neal, let alone the thin Garnett.

Ranbir went to the Knicks to give a lecture, and the Knicks' players benefited a lot, and Rodman and Ranbier were teammates for seven years, and together they forged the legend of the Bad Boy Army, do you think how terrible he is?

If it weren't for two brushes, he wouldn't have won the Defensive Player of the Year award twice and made the league's All-Defensive Team eight times, seven of which were first-team players. As for winning the rebounding king seven times with a height of 2.01 meters and exploding the four major centers, it is an irreproducible myth in the NBA!

Compared with Rodman, whether it is Garnett, Big Ben, or Bowen, they are still too tender!

Under the defense of the big bug, Garnett hit a shot angrily, but Oakley grabbed a frontcourt rebound under the basket.

Rodman defended out, and it was Burrell who was in the position with Oaklica. Don't look at Burrell's height and Rodman's sameness, but his rebounding ability and Rodman are completely two worlds.

Although Oakley is not as good as Rodman, he is also a rebounding maniac, and he takes the rebound directly from Burrell's head into his arms!

The Knicks reorganized their offense, run tactics.

Alan Houston relied on cover to get rid of Jordan, but under the defense of Ron Harper, who came from the defense, he hit a shot angrily.

Later generations of fans know that this Bulls team is strong, but they may not know that its strongest thing is defense.

Needless to say, Jordan, who has been in the All-Defensive Team 9 times and has won the Best Defensive Player award, is the strongest in history. Scottie Pippen has been in the defensive ten times, one more than Joe. In addition, their playmaking guard Ron Harper is also a rare outside defensive gate!

Jordan, Pippen, and Harbour make up the league's most intimidating outside defensive lineup, and there's a Rodman inside!

In this era, only a few teams such as the Knicks under Van Gundy and the Heat in the hands of Riley dare to compete with the Bulls on defense!

Although Pippen is not here today, there are Jordan and Harbour, and the Knicks' outside life is also very sad.

After Houston hit the iron, Oakley grabbed another frontcourt rebound!

Rodman was so happy to see Oakley's rebounds snatched, and his whole face was unhappy.

If he's under the basket, there's nothing wrong with Oakley!

When this game is over, those who only look at the data and don't look at the ball will definitely say that he was blown up by Oakley!

The ball came out, and the Knicks organized the offense for the third time, and Big Z scored the ball against Longley's defense!

2:4, the Bulls trailed by two points!

The two teams went back and forth, and after three more rounds, the score became 6:6.

Li Wei silently observed that in these three rounds, although the Bulls did enough camouflage, the organizational core of two of the rounds must be Langley!

Ming repairs the plank road, secretly crosses Chen Cang, they are engaged in the organization of the center!

He called a timeout and then assisted Chuck Daley in resetting the defense!

"Play the No. 15 defense plan for a while, pay attention to their center's response to the ball, and the point is to cut off Longley from the rest of the Bulls." Chuck Daley Dao.

"What about Jordan?" Garnett asked.

Li Wei said: "If Jordan holds the ball, he must be the first to cover it, but if he doesn't hold the ball, he must pay more attention to Langley, and he can't let him revitalize the Bulls' offense." ”

For the remainder of the timeout, Daley brushed up on the four defensive tactics of the No. 15 defensive plan for his players so they didn't remember it clearly.

On the commentary bench, Mike Brin said with some confusion: "Why did Coach Li call a timeout so early, the Knicks started well!" ”

Fraser said: "It's true that our two teams have been in contact with each other, and neither of us has taken advantage. I guess with Kukic out today, the Bulls are playing differently than usual, and Coach Lee wants to do some targeted arrangements. ”

After all, he was the former core of the Knicks' backcourt, the commander of the team, and Fraser's conjecture was infinitely close to the truth!

After the timeout, the game restarted, and the audience was surprised to find that the Knicks replaced Big Z with Ben Wallace!

Mike Brin shouted, "Oh my God, Coach Lee actually replaced Big Z so early? This is too capricious, the point of big Z is our advantage point, as we all know, the weakness of the Bulls is on the inside, and hitting the small ball is hitting people's hands! ”

Fraser smiled slightly: "Coach Li's substitutions have always been unpredictable, let's observe and talk about it." ”

Phil Jackson saw Li Wei replace Big Z, and his eyes were fixed.

Big Ben for Big Z can only mean one thing - the Knicks want to have a wave of running and bombing to disrupt the rhythm of the Bulls!

However, the Bulls do not have a strong scoring inside, they rely on the outside, and they are the best team in the league at playing small ball, and they must take advantage of playing small ball!

Why did the Knicks take the shortness and the strength of others?

Phil Jackson felt that there was only one answer, that is, Li Wei or Daley saw through his arrangement, so they used a small-ball lineup to target Longley!

That's right, the Knicks can only target this lineup, and only Longley. The 2.18-meter Australian center forward is fat and slow, he really can't run!
