The best way to break the joint defense is to shoot three-point shots from a distance, because the biggest goal of the three-two joint defense is to limit the transfer of the ball within the three-point line, but when the Wizards have two three-point shooters, and the three other main players have projection capabilities, few teams dare to take the initiative to do this, but why does Jackson want to defend like this?

But the Lakers also have a new problem...... Jordan stood in front of Kobe Bryant again, and for the first time he was 100% focused on defending Kobe Bryant - this was the old man's order before the game, yes, it was an order, to defend Kobe Bryant alone, and no one was allowed to come over to help defend or give any assistance.

When Jackson saw Jordan standing in front of Kobe, showing that expression that was extremely silent and focused to a certain extent, he was taken aback again, but soon, Jackson sighed deeply and closed his eyes.

If there are people in this world who understand Jordan, Jackson can definitely be ranked among the top five, and if there are people who understand the concept of what Jordan's fighting state represents at all times, Jackson is definitely among the top three.

But even if you do, what if you do?

Can Jackson take the initiative to back down at this time? This game must be won in the final so that the Lakers' beast can pick up sooner rather than later.

"Jordan, you're old!" For the first time, Jackson said silently without any expression in his heart when he closed his eyes.

However, Jackson also admitted that Jordan was the hero of the half, especially in the first half for only 2 minutes, to find the state to play, all for the present of the second half.

In short, Kobe Bryant is sure to be in trouble.

Collins' support for this tactic seems to be 100% in favor, and even changed the defensive tactics that the Wizards are good at, using a rare one-four formation on the basketball court, that is, leaving Jordan alone to face Kobe, and everyone else is helping to defend Kobe's possible passing route, of course, the focus is on defending O'Neal, and Kwame has already used the tactic of going around the front at this time.

No matter how surprised the Lakers were at the Wizards' tactical change, the fans at the Wizards' home court had already let out an exclamation at this time, and the fans watching the game in front of the TV immediately stopped after a burst of exclamations and watched the showdown in front of them with bated breath!

Maybe people will never see a duel again in their lives!

Kobe Bryant faced Jordan's defense, his eyes were stunned but immediately became serious, and the momentum of his whole body was retracted, like a snake before hunting prey, tightening the muscles of his whole body and becoming unusually quiet...... A man who calls himself a poisonous snake is most in danger only when he is at his quietest.

But Kobe, who didn't know what to remember, had a slight change in his eyes, but he didn't attack at the first time.

It's just that when Kobe Bryant saw the current state of the other players and the Wizards' extremely obvious defensive strategy, he immediately adjusted his state to the best.

Many people will imagine such a group of players facing each other against each other, right? Kobe Bryant at his peak and Jordan at his peak when he is ready for everything.

I always feel that human imagination is infinite, but when I really encounter this moment when I need to imagine infinity, I don't know what to write...... In the fifth game of the finals, which can be described as the most critical game, two generations of superstars, two generations of the league's most representative superstars, and two people representing the inheritance, face to face, one-on-one, no player will interfere with the duel......

And the final result of these two superstars - the final result will also determine the outcome of this match.

In short, this game, after this matchup, the ratings increased by 6 percentage points again, reaching a set of numbers that the league never dreamed of, and it made Stern, the god of the gods, remember the names of all the main players present.

In short, Kobe's offense was seriously hindered for the first time, and two consecutive high-intensity games, especially Kobe, who was deliberately consumed by the Wizards in the first half, did not take advantage of the slightest advantage in this second-half matchup.

In short, after this game, even after the end of this year's finals, no reporter dared to mention words such as Jordan's aging in the report, and no one dared to mention Kobe, who stepped on the peak Jordan and won 52 points.

Before this showdown between the two stars, Jordan had never defended Kobe Bryant one-on-one again, even if Kobe Bryant played the last game, it was only a hasty decision made as a leader! But it was an unequal duel, Kobe Bryant was at his best and in the best condition, and what about Jordan? It can only be said that he rushed into battle to do what a leader should do at that time.

Prior to this, Collins would never send Jordan to defend Kobe when choosing a player to defend Kobe...... It's a respect!

The '02 Grand Final was a great Grand Final, with the most duels in history...... No words can describe what is happening, and any words have lost their unique charm under such a duel.

It was also a lose-lose game...... Although the Lakers lost the game, after the end of the game, Jordan was helped out of the arena, the stadium where everyone gave a standing ovation and everyone's blessings, and was diagnosed with muscle tremors and convulsions after the game...... Inability to play the remainder of the game......

In other words, Jordan's seventh journey to the Finals has come to an end at the moment of the end of this game. Jordan fulfilled his promise to Collins and everyone in the Wizards, single-handedly won a must-win game for the Wizards, and led the hard-hitting Wizards players to a tough victory over the Lakers.

Although the Lakers lost the most crucial fifth game, no one thinks that the Lakers have lost this round of the Finals, especially the Wizards' victory in the fifth game, which is completely dependent on Jordan to win the game.

This Finals was really unexpected by many people, and absolutely no one would think that the Wizards would really push the Lakers into a corner.

If Kobe Bryant became a god with his strength in the fourth game, then the second half of the fifth game was the second time of God's arrival.

But Phil? Jackson's mood at this time is quite comfortable, and it is extremely complicated and difficult to describe, especially when he sees Jordan standing on his opposite side and doing everything for other teams and winning, it is even more complicated Jackson's mood at this time......

"It seems like I'll be entangled with you for the rest of my life, and you're my opponent in this last trip to the finals? Hehe, God really played a big joke on us! ”

No one thinks Jackson's statement is nonsense, but what is special is that Jordan's contract is two years, and the Wizards can at least keep their main roster intact for next year, and even strengthen their roster in the summer free market......

But in such a situation, why would Jackson say that this was Jordan's last Finals......

The good news for the Lakers is that the beast that has been unleashed has once again reined in its ambitions, its ambition to occupy existing territory, its fangs, and its silence for the first time after the game.

Especially at the moment when he learned that Jordan had finished the season, the superstar sat alone in his villa in Los Angeles for two hours, and no one knew what Kobe Bryant was thinking at this time.

……

Collins was seen in the hospital room after the game, and the post-game Q&A ended very hastily when Jordan was not in attendance.

No one will ask anything at this time, and there is no need to say anything more in this game, everything is a true portrayal and has attracted everyone's attention, but the Lakers, who have made corresponding arrangements for this, really can't imagine that Jordan will choose to explode all his own in this game.

When Jordan saw Collins, when he saw the complicated look on Collins' face, he smiled first, "Didn't you bring my cigar?" Smoking a victory cigar at this time is a supreme pleasure, isn't it? ”
