Chapter 50: Super Collision (5)
After the last 2 minutes and 24 seconds of the last game, the Rockets saved themselves on the edge of the cliff.
Although the Bulls sold for their mistakes, the Bulls gradually recognized the true strength of the Rockets.
Now it's time for the two sides to compete in willpower.
Let's see who can grit their teeth and make it to the end.
Whoever can stick to the end will be the final winner.
"Hakim, you were amazing yesterday, you acted like God in the last 2 minutes." The next day, Tiger said when he saw Olajuwon.
"Hehe, yesterday's last hit to that point can be said to be the limit, I feel that yesterday's Bulls seemed to be in a certain state in the last few minutes, almost like a fool, Michael's three attacks missed, gave them a big blow to their hearts, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to send 4 long passes at the last moment, you know, such a ratio is rare in the arena." Olajuwon said modestly.
"Hey, man, anyway, your performance yesterday was fantastic, the last 2 minutes of the 10:0 shockwave, I guess Chicagoans are crying right now. Wow, that's just amazing. Tiger was a little excited.
"Hehe, boss, I don't think you're excited about yesterday's game, aren't the two beauties sitting next to you yesterday very cool." Well, this is a slut who hasn't appeared in a long time.
"Kenny, you slut, one of those two is my own sister, and the other is my sister's roommate, you said you could be so cool." Tiger can't help this slut either.
"yes, you're unlucky, hehe." Kenny Smith, the slut, said nothing.
"Okay, guys, the Chicagoans aren't going to give up, we only have one game in Houston and we have to win it." Lao Tang walked over at this time and said.
"Okay, guys, you guys, you guys, you guys, you guys, you guys,
Tiger gave special instructions when he left.
"Okay, don't worry, boss, we can't forget it, we can definitely let you make a difference, but your sister's roommate is really good, boss, don't give up easily." To be able to say that, this can be some kind of slut.
Hearing this, Tiger stumbled and fell.
The crowd watching the rocket laughed in unison.
On June 12, at the Compaq Center, the fifth game between the Rockets and the Bulls began.
It can be said that the luck of the Rockets is still very good.
Jordan had a fever and diarrhea due to food poisoning from eating pizza before the game.
You can barely play before the game.
Zen master Phil Jackson said to Jordan with great concern: "If you can't succeed, don't force it, we still have a chance in Chicago." ”
Jordan replied, "No, Phil, I'm going to play, I can hold it." ”
After the game started, Jordan was really powerless and was broken through continuously.
Drexler looked at Jordan and said, "Michael, you better go down, if you continue to play like this, it will kill you." ”
"Don't worry, Clyde, you can't beat me the way I am." Jordan said in a very weak voice.
"Then I'm sorry, Michael, as long as you're standing on the court, you're my opponent." After saying that, an acceleration broke through Jordan's weak defense today.
Easy breakaway points, two points for the Rockets.
Jordan's weakness further deepened the Bulls' weakness.
In the first quarter of the game, the Rockets already led by 16 points.
But in the second verse, the situation changed abruptly.
Jordan held the ball, suddenly accelerated, and broke through Drexler's defense.
Relentlessly, he rushed to the basket and reached for two free throws under Garnett's block.
Looking at Jordan, who landed in the place and scored the ball weakly, Garnett's heart was full of admiration.
Although as an opponent, you have to fight on the field.
But as a basketball player, this kind of willpower and professionalism is well worth learning from Garnett.
"Michael, you're great, you deserve my respect." Garnett didn't talk any trash today.
"Do you still need to say that, second grader?" Jordan's tone was as haughty as ever.
"Hehe, you're right, I don't need to say it, you've proven it yourself." Garnett said with a smile.
Jordan looked at Garnett and didn't continue to speak, because he now felt like he was wasting his energy by talking.
It was in this situation that Jordan hit the inside line again and again, and scored free throws again and again.
Jordan scored 17 points in the first quarter, is this a patient's score?
People didn't believe it, but Jordan's sweaty head and weak eyes showed that it was true.
As he was helped into the locker room by his teammates, there was applause at the Compaq Center.
It's a conquest of one man over a group of people, and that's that great Jordan, a great paranoia.
The 15 minutes of halftime didn't help Jordan much.
Jordan in the third quarter was almost like he was overwhelmed.
Under the watchful eye of the rockets, Jordan is like a small boat sailing in the sea ravaged by a typhoon.
From time to time, there is no way.
He scored only 2 points in the first quarter.
The rocket side is already celebrating the victory.
Because they've taken the advantage back.
The final moment came.
No one thought of it.
The invincible guy is back.
Breakthrough after break, jump shot after jumper.
Make the rocket man very powerless.
Look at the really active Jordan.
Drexler asked Jordan suspiciously, "Man, are you really sick?" ”
Jordan glanced at Drexler and said, "Clyde, you have to know that this is the finals, the highest level competition in the world, will I pretend to be sick?" ”
"However, I think I'm skeptical that there's an alien monster under your skin, and you can still hold on at such a moment, is this TMD a myth?" The glider couldn't help but burst into foul language.
Jordan smiled silently.
With a flick of the wrist, the ball went to the basket, and Pippen hit a backhand layup.
The best moment starts with the last 46 seconds.
The Bulls trailed by one point at 84:85.
Jordan's shot is violated.
Jordan stepped to the free-throw line and hit the first free throw.
The Bulls leveled the score.
The second penalty missed, and the ball bounced out of the basket.
A group of big men hula stepped forward to grab the rebound.
But the ball was taken by Jordan.
The Bulls patiently organized the offense.
Pippen held the ball and singled Horry, and Pippen pushed in step by step.
As a last resort, Drexler stepped forward to help.
So Jordan was left empty.
Pippen, who was quick with his hands, saw that Jordan appeared vacant, and his wrist flipped sideways.
Jordan lifted the ball from beyond the three-point line.
Mark Jackson doesn't care if his posture looks good or not.
The vicious one pounced on him.
However, the ball went in.
88:85.
Jordan roared.
Who can stop such a guy.
The Rockets were a little discouraged
"Smack" "Slap" "Slap"
There was a clapping of hands.
"Look at what, we still have time, isn't it just three points, we can come back completely." It was Olajuwon who spoke.
The leader of the rocket.
At such a moment, Big Dream stood up.
"We still have a chance, what are we afraid of, even if we lose this game, we still have two games to play." Big Dream continued to encourage his teammates, implying that we would have to play at least seven games.
Seeing that their captain did not lose confidence, everyone cheered up and continued to fight.
Rocket offensive.
After a quick pass through the midfield.
The ball man is inside, and it is in the hands of Olajuwon.
At this time, Olajuwon thought to himself: "Michael, you lead the team to victory in your way, and I also have my way." ”
The big dream of holding the ball, the attention is already highly concentrated.
Looking at Rodman, who had already made up for the defense, Olajuwon picked his wrist unhurriedly.
passed the ball, and Garnett, who was already vacant, was stunned when he saw the ball in his hands.
Then the voice of the big dream came out.
"Hurry up."
Garnett, who heard the words, reacted immediately, his legs were strained, his waist and abdomen were straightened, and his neck and arms were bruised, and he was about to dunk.
At this time, Rodman under the basket didn't care about that, and directly hugged Garnett in the air.
Garnett, who was in the air, saw that he couldn't dunk anymore, turned his arm slightly, shook his wrist and changed the dunk to a layup, and gently sent the basketball out.
He was roughly pulled down by Rodman in the air.
However, Garnett's eyes never took off the basketball.
I saw the basketball gently toss twice on the basket and gently fall into the basket.
In an instant, the cheers of the audience erupted, and the cheers were as loud as the take-off and landing of supersonic fighter jets, which was suffocating.
The whistle blew and Garnett made it 2+1.
Looking at the kid sitting on the ground, looking up to the sky and roaring, Rodman also shook his head weakly.
Garnett jumped up from the ground, confidently took the ball, and stood at the free throw line.
At this moment, Rodman walked over and whispered, "Boy, do you know how to shoot?" ”
Garnett glanced at him and said, "Old man, my shot is better than yours." ”
After speaking, he scored the ball steadily, and then glanced at Rodman indifferently.
This situation did not Rodman to death.
If you can't provoke others, you will be provoked.
I secretly thought to myself: "How can young people nowadays not know how to respect the old and love the young." (Just like you, respect the old and love the young, go die)
88:88
The two sides drew at the time.
Bulls attack.
Pippen dribbled the ball quickly through the midfield.
After a series of foot changes, Pippen has broken through to the three-point line.
When facing a big dream, it's time to pass the ball.
At this time, Dameng has already committed 5 fouls, and if he is shooting, he will be out.
Whether to foul or not to foul, this thought instantly went back and forth in Da Meng's mind.
There is no room for hesitation.
Raise your hand and grab Pippen.
Sent Pippen to the free-throw line.
Sent himself off the field.
Olajuwon walked off the field slowly.
Look at the bus that came up on the substitute. (Big Bus's free throws are much better than Big Ben.) )
whispered in his ear: "Man, the inside line is up to you." ”
The bus nodded lightly and went on the field.
Pippen was very competitive.
Hit both free throws.
90:88 two-point lead over the Rockets.
Now there is only 10.2 seconds left for the rocket.
In the face of the Bulls' pressing defense, the Rockets calmly passed the ball across the halfcourt.
The Rockets were outside the three-point line, and the two blocks that were connected did not appear to be open.
Time is running out.
The ball arrived at once, in Garnett's hand.
Garnett faced a rotation over Haber.
Raised hands, straight arms, jump shots with a step back.
The hand shape is good and the ball is flat.
The power is not very great.
Unfortunately, the ball bounced off the basket and flew out.
The hearts of the rocket people are like ashes.
Just when everyone was desperate, a yellow arm tapped lightly on the ball.
"Huh"
The ball is scored, 90:90.
The rocket once again pulled himself back from the line of death.
The commentator at the rocket scene shouted hysterically: "Who is this, who is this TMD, who is our hero in Houston." ”
A pair of big yellow hands, raised high, just raised silently.
The Rockets' players are almost all crazy.
Because the time is only 1.1 seconds.
Jordan couldn't hold on anymore.
In overtime, they have an 80% chance of winning.
That would give them a 3-2 lead to Chicago.
The bus was smiling innocently.
He knows that this may be the most beautiful moment of his life, and his basket may be forever engraved in basketball history.
The Rockets' players were just laughing like that.
At the urging of the referee, the Rockets players returned to the court to prepare for the final 1.1 seconds.
The Bulls serve on the sideline and they only have one chance.
Catch the ball and shoot.
All the people were holding their breath and waiting.
See if the bull can still have a miracle.
The Bulls' players ran to Jackson's tactics.
Suddenly, Jordan moved, moving 30 degrees to the right with a brisk step.
At the same time, Pippen's ball was also passed.
However, Drexler, who was defending Jordan, was blocked by Rodman.
Watch Jordan catch the ball and shoot.
The basketball arcs beautifully under the dome of the Compaq Centre.
It's really beautiful and the arc is perfect.
"Whew" basketball hit.
At the same time, the whistle blew for the end of the game.
The Rockets' players couldn't believe it when they looked at the final shot.
The last 1.1 seconds to rewrite fate.
And in the end, the scene of Jordan holding his left hand high and being helped off the court by Pippen and Rodman became a timeless classic in the history of the NBA Finals.
The trapeze proves that he is the best with his incredible behavior.
It's an epic and legendary race.
This one will be remembered by all the fans.
