He scored 53 points in the first game and 34 points in the second, totaling 87 points in the two games while shooting 48 percent from the field. However, such an almost god-level play failed to bring the Bulls a victory.

After the first two games, in addition to discussing Thibodeau's coaching, the media also analyzed the relationship between Sun Xiaotian and the entire Bulls!

ESPN organized a specialist consultation to take the pulse of the Bulls.

Yahoo Sports reporter Jonathan Giwani said, "It's fun! When the Heat team defends the Bulls' offense, the strategy they adopt is actually to isolate Sun Xiaotian, and in many cases, the Heat team is nominally encircling Sun Xiaotian, but in fact it is a cover, and the Heat team is really defending the other four people. If you look at the scores of the other players, you can see that Boozer's shooting percentage can be described as miserable, Hinrich shooting only 18% from three-point range, and Ruhr Deng shooting just over 40% from the field......

To sum up Giwani's words, it is the "Jordan's Law"

Jordan's rule is simply a strategy of the Pistons against the Bulls back then: use various methods to defend Jordan, do everything, and when you can't prevent Jordan, you will "let Jordan go" and defend the other 4 people, even if Jordan scores more points, the other 4 people score very low and the Bulls still lose. Of course, the Pistons said that they would "let Jordan go", but in fact, they let a person use "all means" to complete the defense against Jordan, that is, to disrupt Jordan's offensive rhythm at all costs or even fouls, so that Jordan could not score well and attack.

Many people know that Jordan in the six-crown period was alone in the martial arts, but the early Jordan was not a person who relied on mid-range shooting to win the world.

In Jordan's rookie season in the NBA in 1984, his shooting range was limited, and he only shot 17.1 percent before the arc. Jordan's early days were mainly based on breakthroughs, because his physical fitness and explosiveness were super-first-class, so dunks and layups were a must, and early mid-range shooting was also a conventional weapon, mainly based on breakthrough emergency stop jump shots. By the late 80s, Jordan's mid-range jumpers became more and more stable, and his shooting posture was gradually set, and his back-to-back singles began to become more numerous.

As Jordan's arsenal grew, he began to be invincible in the league, whether it was one-on-one or one-on-many, and Jordan was unbeatable in scoring.

Even so, the early Jordan still couldn't break through in the East, which was mostly due to the Jordan's rule invented by the Pistons!

Jordan's rule claims to have more than 100 rules, each of which is not to compete with Jordan openly, but to push, pull, pull, pull and other irregular actions to prevent Jordan from scoring. Ranbier and Mahon are faithful enforcers of Jordan's Rule.

Pistons president Joe Dumas was the most important pawn in the "Jordan's Rule" of the year, and it was because of his presence that the Pistons did not have to use two or three players to contain Jordan like other teams.

However, the Pistons often had to take turns defending Jordan in some particularly tough games, with Rodman, Sully, Bill Lambier, Rick Mahon and Vinnie Johnson often having to take turns defending Jordan.

For the Pistons back then, Jordan, who was extremely strong in offense and enough to lead the team to victory with one hand, was not enough to do it if he didn't sacrifice an extraordinary method. In this way, Chuck Daley, the head of the sect, developed the "Jordan Law" that was passed down to future generations.

The Pistons' defense of Jordan is based on the best defensive player Joe Dumas as the first line, and the big bug Rodman and others are the second line, so it can be said that the defensive strategy of the whole team revolves around Jordan. Their idea is simple, they'd rather let someone else beat them than Jordan!

Dumas, on the other hand, understands that he has the support of his teammates behind him, but defensively has the mentality that he must defend Jordan alone. He himself described that it was the attitude that there was only Jordan in his heart for 48 minutes, regardless of offense or defense.

It is with this attitude, without the slightest reverence for Jordan, that the "Bad Boy Army" can defeat Jordan repeatedly and finally win the championship twice.

The three main reasons for the success of the "Jordan Rule" are: first, Thomas's leadership skills and his wisdom to skillfully play the edge ball and use illegal defense (i.e., today's joint defense); The second is that the Pistons have a group of fighters led by Ranbier, who broke his teammate's ribs in practice, and more importantly, they have three excellent defensive players: Dumas, Rodman and John Sully. Finally, at that time, the Bulls had not yet practiced the triangle offense (there is a theory that the Zen master carried forward the triangle offense after he came to power, and it was originally intended to deal with the shameless "Jordan's rule").

………

Today, Sun Xiaotian can't be compared with Jordan, but the Heat's strategy against the Bulls does have a bit of a shadow of Jordan's law.

When defending Sun Xiaotian, the Heat used a wheel battle, with James, Wade, Battier, and Ray Allen taking turns to play, while defending others was mainly to cut off their connection with Sun Xiaotian, and the effect was obvious.

In the first two games, Sun Xiaotian scored explosively, but there were only 7 assists in total, which compared with the first two rounds of assists and double-doubles, Sun Xiaotian's connection with other players is weakening.

Back at home, if the Bulls want to turn the tide, the other players must step up first, at least to help Sun Xiaotian share the pressure in the offensive segment. Only by dispersing the scoring points and letting the Heat take care of one or the other, Sun Xiaotian can play the basketball that is most beneficial to the Bulls, and this style of play is the magic weapon that the previous team relied on to survive.

Of course, as the "Jordan" of this team, Sun Xiaotian is also trying to change, he doesn't want to be like this every game, high scoring can suddenly bring more exposure, but if the team can win, it doesn't matter if he can't do it.

In the third game, Sun Xiaotian told the media that the team will definitely change differently, the series is far from over, and the meaningless statistics of the Bulls' promotion rate of only 15% can't say anything at all!

Jordan said: I can accept failure, but I can't accept giving up.

It was his persistence that Jordan had the great cause of breaking through the Pistons to dominate the East!

This year is Sun Xiaotian's rookie season, and James is in the most mature period of his career, which is also in the next few years, James will be a big mountain in front of Sun Xiaotian, one day Sun Xiaotian can adapt to the ups and downs on the way to mountaineering, and Sun Xiaotian will not be far away to dominate the east.

These are still too far away, and what Sun Xiaotian has to solve now is the benign mutual dissolution of the team as a whole and individually.

On top of that, there are some rumours about the team that have affected the team's unity, and the good news is that the team owner has made it public that "Thibodeau still has control of the team and we will continue to believe in him!" ”

At least that's good news!! (To be continued.) )
