Due to Jordan's break, the Rockets began to dominate the court, and the Bulls' offense was gradually suppressed.

Looking at the situation on the field, Fair? Jackson was replaced by Kerr, hoping to use Kerr's shooting ability to open a winning path for the Bulls.

A three-pointer from Kerr gave hope to the Bulls.

However, rockets are not so easy to deal with, Ray? Allen immediately stepped up his defense, intending to block Cole.

Thunder? Aaron followed closely behind Cole, and his firm close defense made Cole very uncomfortable, Cole looked at the kid next to him, and said in a low voice: "Boy, are you a locust?" It's so tight. ”

Thunder? Aaron said expressionlessly: "What do I belong to, you can't control it, my task is to stick to you, stare at you, and make you unable to do anything." ”

Thunder? Aaron's words directly made Cole speechless, and Cole knew that the biggest headache he had now was the kid in front of him.

After Kerr hit a three-pointer, he began to fall silent, and the Rockets used the last 2 minutes of the first half to start a crazy offense, hitting all 4 shots, and a wave of 10:0 offense, allowing the Rockets to overtake the score in the final moments.

From 8 points behind, to 2 points at the end of the game.

At 52:50, everyone was stunned, and they chased 10 points in a row within 2 minutes, and the powerful attack power of the rocket made everyone's hearts palpitate.

All the players of the Rockets were very happy to be able to overtake the score at the last moment, after all, it is a happy thing to overtake the opponent at the last moment.

Lao Tang also returned to the locker room with a relaxed expression, but as soon as he entered the door of the locker room, Lao Tang's face sank, he didn't want the Rocket's boys to be too relaxed, so it wouldn't be good for them.

The players of the Rockets were shocked when they saw their head coach in the middle of the face sinking like water, everyone knows what Lao Tang's surname looks like, Lao Tang is usually a very kind person, and he is not so harsh on the player's coach, so the players still like Lao Tang very much.

Although, Lao Tang's face was very heavy, but his speech was still relatively gentle, so he heard Lao Tang say: "Guys, everyone performed very well in the last moment of the first half, and was able to overtake the score at the last moment, which is not something that any team can do, but you did it, I am very pleased and happy, but I want to remind you that Michael did not play at the last moment, and the Bulls had a huge hole in both offense and defense, and with the help of this situation, we overtook the opponent at the last moment, So that's not a reason for people to be proud, I hope we'll still have a good laugh after the game, that's true. ”

Lao Tang's words made the Rockets' players nervous, in fact, everyone knows what is going on, just to find some psychological comfort for themselves, don't look at the Rockets defeated the opponent twice on their home court, but as the league's hegemon for several years, the Bulls are still very deterrent.

While Lao Tang was preaching to the players with a straight face in the Rockets' locker room, a storm was already brewing in the Bulls' locker room.

The Bulls players all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Phil, whose face was already iron-blue? Jackson, I don't know what's going on in the last few games, Phil? Jackson is getting more and more out of control of his temper, which surprises everyone.

Phil? Jackson blushed and didn't speak for a long time, just kept looking around at the Bulls' players, and then said slowly: "I want to know what you guys are doing in the last moments of the first half, are you sleepwalking?" Look at how you guys played, in the last 2 minutes, the Rockets hit all 4 shots, scored 10 points in a row, 2 three-pointers, a mid-range shot, and a dunk, you guys are good, don't you play when Michael is off? Are you still a professional player, there is a professional player like you, who is loose and broken through, who is shot in the head by people who are directly involved, and you still have the face to mix in the league, you are still not a championship team. ”

Phil? Jackson's words pierced the hearts of the Bulls players like a knife, and a sense of shame rose in their hearts that they had never felt before.

The locker room fell silent again, only the heavy breathing of the Bulls players could be heard, and the occasional coughing sound, a depressing atmosphere, slowly formed in the Bulls locker room.

At this time, Jordan stood up and said loudly: "Guys, I apologize to you first, due to my personal reasons, I rushed to each other with Clyde's bastard in the second quarter of the game, which caused a huge physical drain, and for this reason I was replaced by the coach, and it was for this reason that everyone was equalized by the Rockets at the last moment, and I apologize to everyone." ”

Pippen, who was on the side, was a little reluctant, and said: "Michael, I know that you are not on the court, the Bulls will lack a lot of power, but we are not as you said, the final game of the first half has little to do with you, it is the situation where the players on the court are suppressed, and it is our responsibility that has nothing to do with you." ”

Rodman also said on the side: "Yes, Scott is right, it has nothing to do with you. ”

Jordan smiled faintly and said, "Okay, I didn't play at the beginning of the second half, and you guys are continuing to play for a few minutes to prove it." ”

Pippen and Rodman looked at each other, and Pippen said: "No problem, we'll prove that the last moments of the first half were the result of our lack of concentration. ”

Jordan nodded, not saying anything.

Phil? Jackson gave Jordan a deep look, and then said, "Okay, when the third quarter starts, I won't let Michael play, I still want to see what kind of game you guys can play." ”

The Bulls players, who were doubly stimulated, nodded with red eyes one by one.

At this time, the Rockets did not realize that the Rockets would face a bull in the second half.

The half-time break was over quickly, and the players from both sides stepped onto the pitch again, waiting for the second half to begin.

After the start of the second half, people were very surprised to find that Jordan did not play, what happened.

Everyone is wondering about this question, including the Rockets' players, coaches, and their owners.

Tiger was very strange and asked Lao Tang and said, "Rudy, why didn't the Bulls let Jordan play, did they give up the game?" ”

Lao Tang shook his head and said: "I don't know what's going on, why didn't the Bulls let Michael play at this time, maybe they have some new tactical arrangements, or Michael's physical consumption in the first half was too great and he hasn't recovered yet, it's hard to say." ”

Tiger nodded, didn't continue to say anything, and turned his attention to the court, but when he saw the state on the court, Tiger was startled, and now the Bulls players are like life and death enemies with the Rockets, biting together with the Rockets' players.

Thunder? Allen's shot was slapped directly on the arm by Cole, and the sound was very crisp, and Ray? Aaron's arm quickly became red and swollen.

Garnett and Rodman are almost mixed up on the inside, two people like conjoined babies, you go there, and the other person follows there.

Bodi Roga looked at Harper, who was opposite him, and looked at him with a murderous face at this time.

The Rockets' offense came to a standstill, and while the Rockets were in a trance, the Bulls began to fight back.

First, Pippen's one-stop layup also caused a foul on Saulius, which made people play '2+1' successfully.

Later, it was Kerr who faced a mid-range shot that had been sealed in his eyes, and Kukoc used his height advantage to make a successful layup under the basket.

Looking at the bull that suddenly turned into a wild bull, Lao Tang hurriedly called a timeout.

Lao Tang looked at some of the Rocket players who were not very focused and said loudly: "What are you doing, it's the time of the game, what kind of mess are you thinking, if anyone hasn't woken up yet, I'll let him come down and sober up, now the Bulls are starting to fight back, but you have to know that Michael hasn't played yet, and now if you lose, what kind of consequences do you have to bear, once that person is on the court, your hard work for the whole game will be in vain, understand, cheer up and strengthen defense, Strengthen your defense, you can't let your opponent score like that when you don't score, you know. ”

The players of the Rockets are nodding desperately, and everyone knows that the current Bulls have begun to play with their lives.

However, who wouldn't play with this thing, you can play it, and I will play it too.

The Rockets players also appeared again with red eyes, and the two sides almost had an ugly foul battle at the beginning of the third quarter.

When Garnett made a layup, he was picked up directly in the air by Rodman.

Pippen's breakthrough was knocked down by Saulius with an elbow, and he lay on the ground for a long time before getting up, and almost caused a group fight.

When Cole was dribbling, he was directly knocked out of the baseline by Bodi Roga.

The two teams, like two wrestlers, are desperately entangled with their opponents.

The anger of both sides is getting bigger and bigger, and the action is getting bigger and bigger.

Now the state of both sides seems to be like a powder keg, and it is on the verge of exploding.

In such a situation, the rocket decisively began to make substitutions.

Olajuwon, Drexler and Mark? Jackson was replaced, and Lao Tang consciously wanted to suppress his anger, after all, if a conflict broke out, it would not be beneficial to either side.

And the Bulls also replaced Jordan to control the fire on the Bulls' field.

Under the suppression of the leaders of the two teams, the two sides finally did not break out into any fierce conflict.

However, the score of the two sides of the Rockets continued to be anxious, and the Rockets still had a one-point advantage, a slight lead.

Looking at the score on the court, Jordan looked at Drexler, who was opposite him, and said in a low voice: "Clyde, you are very smart, but I won't be the second time." ”

Drexler smiled and said, "If I can fool you once, it is a victory, then there are so many schemes to calculate you." ”

Jordan looked at Drexler and didn't say anything.

Then, a sudden acceleration change of direction got rid of Drexler and went straight into the inside of the rocket, very fast, very sharp.

Olajuwon and Garnett quickly stepped forward to flank the ball, with Olajuwon in front and Garnett in the back to intercept Jordan's pass.

A very perfect pinching appeared.

This would have been a success for an ordinary player, but Jordan quickly sent his hands in front of him, and Garnett, who had been attracted to Rodman's attention, did not see Kukic slipping up from the other side.

Kukoc, who received the ball, did not hesitate to dunk with both hands, adding two points to the Bulls and overtaking the score.

When Jordan walked past Drexler, he whispered, "I can beat you even if I don't score." ”

The cold light in Drexler's eyes flashed, a sneer leaked from the corner of his mouth, and he replied indifferently, and heard Drexler say, "Yes, then let's see." ”
