Chapter 175: Chicago, Here We Come (4)

With a pounding dunk from Drexler, the Rockets are telling Chicagoans that we're not that easy to deal with, and if you want to take us down, you guys get something.

Looking at Drexler's explosive dunk, Jordan was also on fire for a while, and said to Pippen: "Give me the ball, I'll do this ball." ”

Pippen nodded and served Jordan directly from the baseline, and Jordan, who controlled the ball, advanced to the outside of the Rockets' three-point line, observing the Rockets' defensive holes.

Jordan looked at Drexler, who was defending him, and said, "Clyde, that dunk you just got was beautiful." ”

Drexler nodded and said, "I know, thank you for the compliment, I know that." ”

Jordan was stunned, he didn't expect Drexler to say such a thing, and then Jordan said with a smile: "How did you learn so much trash talk in the Rockets in the past few years." ”

Drexler said lightly: "Don't say so much, Michael, we're in a game, not drinking coffee." ”

Jordan shook his head helplessly and stopped talking.

Jordan, who controlled the ball on the outside, changed direction with a cross-step, shook Drexler's center of gravity, and quickly broke through the Rockets' outside defense in disguise and entered the paint area.

Looking at Jordan's breakthrough, the twin towers on the inside of the Rockets began to shrink inward, ready to block Jordan. However, Jordan is Jordan, and once again he twisted his body to the basket and jumped up to dunk.

What was a little surprising was that Garnett didn't shake up, followed with a sidewalk, and jumped up to block Jordan's layup.

Jordan, who was in the air, secretly sneered in his heart: My ball is so easy to cover.

Thinking of this, Jordan put the ball back and played a hand-to-hand layup in the air, which showed Jordan's perverted physicality and ability to stay in the air.

After completing this miraculous layup, Jordan roared to the sky after landing.

At this moment, Jordan seemed to want to vent his anger at the first two defeats to the Rockets.

Pippen ran up to Jordan and excitedly said, "Michael, you're amazing." ”

Holding Jordan's bald head with both hands, he kissed him fiercely.

Jordan immediately pushed Pippen away and scolded with a smile: "Go aside, Scott, you didn't brush your teeth today, you have bad breath." ”

A rather morale-boosting goal, the mood of the Bulls players began to run high at this moment.

Harper tried hard to defend Bodi Roga, and Harper secretly thought in his heart: This European is really difficult to deal with, he has height, his shooting is accurate, and the breakthrough is the most uncomfortable, I don't know if I can complete the task given to me by the coach today.

Before the game, Phil? Jackson talked to Harper about whether he could defend Bodi Roga if he could defend it.

In the first two games, Bodi Roga averaged 17.5 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists per game and became the third person after Rocket Olajuwon and Garnett.

This guy must be the starter next year, Harper thought to himself.

Bodi Roga was equally active in this game, and in the substitute Mark? After Jackson came on the court, he sorted out the Rockets' offense well, and also used his height to constantly impact the Bulls' interior.

Let the bull's inside line be noisy, not everyone has such a ability.

At this moment, Bodiroga began to break through, and he wanted to continue to kill the Bulls' inside line, and after dodging Harper, Bodi Roga took a big step into the inside line.

But as soon as Bodiroga looked up, he found that the Bulls' interior had prepared a trap for him.

Jordan and Pippen have blocked his breakthrough route, looking at this situation, Bodi Roga did not panic, just smiled indifferently, a ground pass passed through the middle of Pippen and Jordan, Drexler, who had no ball, threw off everyone, caught the basketball and burst into flames, Longley and Rodman had been pressed behind by the bus and Garnett, giving Drexler's attack, dodging the attack channel.

Another tomahawk-style slam dunk, and Drexler staged an adrenaline-pumping dunk.

Drexler, who fell from the basket, roared very rarely.

In the last few races of his career, this ever-elegant 'glider' began to bloom with his inner wild.

These wonderful offenses from both sides at the beginning of the second quarter of the game made the Bulls home fans addicted, this is the peak duel they want to see, the explosive dunk, the superstar duel, this is the finals they want to see.

Lao Tang and Tiger on the sidelines were also very excited, it was so exciting, Tiger shouted loudly: "Rudy, I really didn't expect that Clyde could play such a strong attack, I'm so surprised." ”

Lao Tang also said with excitement on his face: "Yes, now Clyde is simply possessed by a demon god. ”

Tiger also nodded wildly and agreed: "Yes, yes, it's too exciting." ”

The two of them don't seem to be the head coach and boss anymore, as if they are two ordinary fans, cheering for their idols there.

Jordan, who was stimulated, began to compete with Drexler, and the two of them seemed to be 10 years younger, wreaking havoc on each other's baskets.

Although it is very exciting, but Phil off the field? Both Jackson and Lao Tang saw the essence of the confrontation.

Old soup is a surprise, Phil? Jackson was horrified.

Because, this is a war that Drexler deliberately provoked, yes, deliberately provoked.

In the second quarter of the game, 5 minutes into the game, the Bulls replaced Jordan, there was no way, and Drexler was too energetic, and the physical consumption was very large.

The Rockets also replaced Drexler, but the new Ray? Aaron wasn't that good either.

Off the field, Phil? Jackson said to Jordan with some seriousness: "Michael, what's wrong with you, don't you know that you are the core of the whole team now, you actually ran to fight against others, if you are 25 years old, it doesn't matter, but you are 35 years old now, don't you have the consciousness of a core player." ”

Jordan nodded a little embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, coach, it's my fault, it's a little out of control today." ”

Phil? Jackson looked at Jordan, who had already apologized, and didn't say anything, after all, Jordan is 35 years old and is still the core of the team.

And the old soup on the Rockets smiled and said to Drexler: "Clyde, when did you become so cunning and remember the idea of fighting Jordan." ”

Drexler smiled and said, "Coach, this is given to me by the boss, how about it, this trick is good." ”

Lao Tang smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's a pity that you can only use such a trick once, Michael has been fooled once, but he won't be fooled." ”

Tiger stuck his head out behind him and said, "Yes, this trick can only be used as a surprise soldier, and it can only be used once, and it won't work if you use it." ”

Lao Tang looked at his boss and said with a smile: "Boss, you are really a cunning guy, now I guess Phil must be scolding me, but it has nothing to do with you." ”

Tiger also smiled, and said a little slyly: "Aren't soldiers tired of cheating, this is something that China summed up thousands of years ago, and I just borrowed it for use." ”

Old Tang also nodded and said: "Yes, the Chinese are a smart nation, you look at the bus on the field, now more and more able to play their own advantages, avoid their own shortcomings, not simple." ”

Tiger also nodded, and turned his attention to the field again.

With Jordan's departure, the Bulls' offensive power suddenly dropped a lot, and Kukoc, who came on the bench, didn't do much under Bodi Roga's defense.

And the Lithuanian brand dog skin plaster on Pippen's body is still sticking to his body, and his attack power is also greatly reduced.

And the players of the Rockets on the field, or full of attacking power, Saulus, Bodi Roga, Ray? Allen's backcourt combination turned on their attacking mode, with the three constantly switching positions in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions.

This kind of offense made the Bulls' backcourt scattered, and several people in the Bulls' backcourt complained bitterly.

Looking at the situation on the field, Phil? Jackson is also very anxious, he knows that Jordan's departure has caused a huge flaw in the Bulls' defensive chain on the outside, and now the Rockets are seizing on this huge shortcoming to beat the Bulls.

Coupled with the strong pressure maintained by the Rockets on the inside, the Bulls fell into passivity for a while.

Phil? Jackson's only thought now is that I need someone to break the passive situation on the court, think for a moment, Phil? Jackson beckoned to Cole and said, "Man, I need you alone now to turn the tide on the court, can I trust you?" ”

Cole nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, coach, I know what to do." ”

Phil? Jackson nodded and said, "You go on the court and say to Dennis, pay attention to the rebound, you go on the court and let go of the attack, you have to give Scott and Tony them room to attack." ”

Cole just nodded heavily this time.

With more than 3 minutes left in the game, the Bulls replaced Longley with Kerr, and now the Bulls are purely small lineups.

When Kerr came on the court, he walked up to Rodman and said, "Dennis, the coach told you to pay attention to the rebound. ”

Rodman nodded, not saying anything.

After getting on the field, Cole quickly led Ray? Allen was running laps, looking for a weak spot in the rocket.

Suddenly, Kukocz turned around and blocked, and Ray was following behind Cole. Alan.

Kerr jumped and ran out of the three-point line, Pippen's eyes were already looking at him, seeing that he was out of position, and the basketball was like a missile, passed to Cole's hands.

Kerr, who received the ball, did not hesitate and made a direct three-point shot.

The basketball didn't spin much in the air and went straight into the rocket's basket.

"Huh"

The sound is very crisp and very pleasant, and the white flowers raised by the friction between the basketball and the basketball are also so beautiful.

However, such beauty is very fatal for rockets.

Lao Tang, who was on the sidelines, made a gesture and signaled the Rockets' players to increase their defense.

Yes, Kerr is a player who deserves to be toughened defensively, Ray? Aaron saw Lao Tang's gesture and nodded.

The Rockets attacked with the ball, and Kerr stuck to Ray like a plaster? Aaron's body, Bodi Roga looked at Ray? After Aaron was targeted, he gestured to the inside bus to cover.

The bus was raised to cover Bodi Roga, the bus blocked Harper like a wall, Bodi Roga strode into the inside line and went straight to the basket, Rodman and Pippen under the basket quickly sandwiched, and Harper behind him also bypassed the bus and chased up.

The three of them were guarded, and just when everyone thought Bodi Roga was going to lose the ball, Bodi Roga threw the ball behind him, and the bus, which had been emptied, received a solid shot from the basketball to add two more points to the Rockets.

It was less than two minutes before the end of the game.
