It's not the first time Shay has shaken Jordan, but the way he shook Jordan this time has shocked everyone.

A near-non-slowing change of direction, coupled with Shay's size. This simply does not conform to the fundamental laws of physics!

In fact, Shay's change of direction is still slowed down, after all, his non-deceleration change of direction badge is only bronze.

It's just that this process of deceleration and re-acceleration is very short and fast.

Even a formidable defender like Jordan couldn't react at all.

On the sidelines, Lakers bald team doctor Wetty was a little worried.

He was well aware of the cost of using a change of direction without deceleration.

But.

At this moment, there was no way he could stop Shay.

He knows very well that for the sake of the championship, in order to win, Shay is willing to block everything!

Michael. Jordan's expression at this time was as if he had eaten nine turns of the large intestine.

Shocked and angry.

Shay, did you mean it or accident!?

Danzi originally thought that the Lakers were already cavalrymen who had been cut off their horses and would be left to their own disposal.

Drexler was like this before, but whenever he encountered a little resistance, he softened.

But Shay, he dragged his bruised body to his feet and spat in Jordan's face!

He'd rather die than give in!

According to the temper of the year, Jordan will immediately enter the mode of "one person beats four people to watch".

He's sure to destroy Shay with extreme individual attacks.

What about four people watching themselves fight? What's there to be ashamed of here?

But at this moment, Jordan did not let desire penetrate his will, and he decided to endure it.

Because he wants to continue to play the triangle offense and continue to beat the Lakers in a full-fledged way.

Jordan doesn't need a triangle offense, that's a fact that the Zen master himself admits.

But the Bulls need a triangle offense.

The point of the triangle offense is to give Jordan's partners around him a chance not to stand stupidly like a stake.

The point of the triangle offense is not to let Jordan fight alone, and let others help Jordan too.

Jordan is well aware that he will benefit from this, so he will not easily break the system of triangle offense.

In the regular season, he may occasionally be willful and go it alone.

But in the Finals, Jordan won't take over easily unless he has to.

As a result, Jordan continued to attract Shay's bag after holding the ball from beyond the three-point line.

Shay immediately pinched the ball, and Jordan expertly played the ball to Pippen in the bottom corner.

Seeing this, Cleverd. Robinson immediately saved in the box to block the bottom line and helped Shay block Pippen.

Pippen wasn't stupid either, and although he had a good offensive performance in the first two games, he didn't take a strong shot against the defense.

Seeing Robinson block, Pippen passed the ball to Cartwright, who was under the basket.

When Cartwright received the basketball, it was temporarily empty.

He gripped the basketball tightly with his five fingers, as hard as he practiced ball control with his daughter-in-law.

After jumping, Cartwright smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

Although Cartwright is very good, there will be no problem with dunking baskets.

It seems that the Zen master's triangular attack has worked again.

The Bulls are starting to blossom more.

As long as there is a pinch, it will definitely leak people.

And the position and system of the triangle attack can always make the pinch attack pay the price.

But when the basketball was about to be smashed into the basket a few centimeters away, a large hand slapped the bottom of the basketball from the bottom up, and the huge force pushed the ball directly away from Cartwright's palm.

Shay, who rushed back to the penalty area, successfully blocked Cartwright's dunk!

The Zen master lifted his glasses, Shay when he was.

Just now, Shay leaked Pippen after pinching Jordan.

Robinson made up for Pippen and then leaked Cartwright.

Shay then went straight to Cartwright and perfectly complemented Robinson!

The Lakers' defensive position change was smooth and tight, leaving no gaps for the Bulls!

Cartwright thought he was dunking an empty basket, but he didn't know that the moment he received the ball, he had already become a prey!

An almost must-score goal was blocked by Shay, and Jordan was tired of watching.

It's no secret that Jordan has always disliked Cartwright.

He thinks Cartwright is too vegetable, not tough enough.

Now Cartwright's dunk has been blocked again, and Jordan is even more angry.

You rookie, don't you know to wait in the air first, and wait for Shay's body to fall before you make a move?

I really don't understand why your basketball IQ is so low!

Cartwright: Is this Nima a basketball IQ problem!?

This round of defense, the Lakers executed perfectly.

Robinson and Shay's complements were timely.

That's why Carlisle removed center today and used Robinson to play the number five position.

The big center looks like a bull, but in fact gives the bulls very limited damage.

It is better to use the forward line and pull the team's defensive flexibility to the highest value.

After Shay blocked Cartwright, Robinson grabbed the rebound.

The Lakers have another chance to fight back!

Barkley ran as hard as if he saw a doughnut and walked to the basket.

Pippen was stuck in the passing lane, not giving Fliggy any space to catch the ball at all.

No matter how brilliant Shay's passing is, it can't get the basketball through the body, right?

Barkley is a little annoyed, Pippen, you are pestering me like this, aren't you afraid that Danzi will misunderstand!?

Danzi: It's okay, my eldest son is always pestering his daughter-in-law, it's just pure friendship.

Shay saw that Barkley under the basket was being held by Pippen, so he jumped up the moment he burst into the box.

But instead of throwing a shot, he reached out in the air and sent the ball to Curry, who ran outside the three-point line on the left.

The whole Bulls turned their heads to look at Curry, but Shay pulled the ball back in the air, and then smashed it to the ground, and there was a bang!

The basketball struck past Pippen, who had let his guard down, and fell into the hands of Barkley, and Shay's air passes were fake, and even Pippen couldn't react.

By the time Pippen turned around, Fliggy had already smashed the buckle with both hands, wreaking havoc in the restricted area!

Not to mention Pippen, Shay's ball shook the camera.

The camera was originally biased towards Curry outside the three-point line, but Shay suddenly changed the direction of the pass, and the fans in front of the TV could clearly feel the camera suddenly pulling under the basket.

Although the ball was scored by Barkley, everyone was amazed at the subtlety of Shay's pass.

"How much can this Shay do in the air!?"

"It's outrageous, you have to take care of your wife when you are neighbors with Shay, because Shay's kid is simply pervasive!"

"Shay can assist Barkley, his passing is better than that of a magician!"

6-0, the Lakers got off to a pretty strong start today.

I thought that the Lakers would definitely be demoralized and self-defeating today.

But the Lakers, who are still fighting away from 0-2, are incredibly tenacious!

Jordan decided not to keep the ball in possession, he originally wanted to motivate his teammates in the opening game, but it didn't work well.

Jordan then wanted to get into attack mode early.

This time he did the shaft in the low post with his back to Sprewell.

While sitting back, Jordan tortured Sprewell's nerves with trash talk:

"What are you doing? That's all you can do? If you're going to do that, I'm going to catch the ball and shoot! ”

Most rookies would have collapsed if they had led Jordan in three consecutive games.

But Sprewell, who was behind Jordan, just didn't say a word, silently pushing Jordan hard.

Pippen hoisted the ball to Jordan, who rolled over and prepared a jumper the moment he received the ball.

Danzi's offense is very concise and unobtrusive.

But when Jordan turned over and jumped and lifted the basketball, one hand "slammed" Jordan's ball off!

It's Sprewell!

Sprewell wasn't affected by Jordan's trash talk, he remained calm.

Defending requires thinking, judgment and patience, which are often the things that rookies lack the most.

But Sprewell is different, he is used to being looked down upon, used to being abused by the outside world.

So Jordan's trash talk doesn't work at all for Sprewell!

Humiliate me however you want, I'm used to it!

Throughout this defensive round, Sprewell was calmly watching Jordan's movements.

He's only a first-year player, but the Mad Guys are averaging 1.6 steals per game this season.

He's always focused on the defensive end.

Therefore, at the moment when Jordan showed a trace of flaws, he successfully cut the ball!

The basketball was cut, and Chicago fans were really starting to feel that something was wrong.

Michael. Jordan was actually blocked by a first-year player!?

And what's even more annoying is that after Sprewell cut the ball, he suddenly said to Danzi coldly:

“Nice try。”

Jordan:???

No

Shay sprays Lao Tzu forget it, even a rookie dares to pretend to beep in front of me!?

The Lakers team, Nima is all backbones!

Sprewell is a former second-year defender, and while he can't contain Jordan like Shay, he can still cause some trouble for Jordan once in a while.

Shay grabbed the ball with his long arm and got the cut ball in his hand before Pi Er.

Pippen wanted to continue to pounce and snatch from Shay, even if he couldn't grab it, he could still fight for a scrum.

Seeing this, Shay squeezed the basketball with both hands, then raised his elbow and swung it in Pippen's direction!

Pippen braked suddenly, leaning back.

Lately, Pippen felt that Shay's elbow was only 0.01 centimeters away from his face.

This is also the distance between him and heaven.

Pippen swallowed after dodging Shay's elbow and then.

Honestly start to retreat!

Slip away, Shay's ball is not something anyone can grab!

Even if he were to die, Pippen wanted to die under Hey's high-heeled crotch, not under Shay's iron elbow.

Shay persuaded Pippen to retreat with virtue and held the ball firmly.

Since the start of today's game, the Bulls have not played a decent offense!

Carlisle's fast-rotation strategy has paid off!

This time, after Shay attacked, he carried Armstrong to break through the inside line as always.

Cartwright raised his arms in despair under the basket, and Jordan chased down the box, threatening to be disgraced.

But after Shay burst to the basket, he calmly passed without looking at anyone.

Distributed the ball to Clifford who was ambushed in the bottom corner on the right side. Robinson!

Carlisle uses Robinson to play center, in addition to providing better mobility on the defensive end, but also to completely open up space!

These days, NBA teams don't pay attention to space.

But Carlisle is not the kind of coach who follows the crowd, he only sees whether the on-field strategy is effective.

It's like people didn't believe in shooting to win a championship in the original history, but Carlisle just won the championship with the Mavericks' jump shooting team.

People think that big men should fight for the board on the inside, but Carlisle doesn't follow the crowd, so why can't big men pull out and shoot?

Robinson received the basketball steadily, and then calmly took the shot.

He, Shay, Perkins and Sprewell are the four hardest working men for the Lakers this season.

For what?

For the sake of fighting for breath!

To crush the bulls!

One mention of Clifford. Robinson, the first thing that comes to mind is the backdrop of Jordan's spread.

To others it was a joke, but to Robinson it was a shame.

Every time he saw that shot on television, Robinson felt as if a needle was pricking his heart.

So against the Bulls, Robinson will never waste any chances.

With Drexler leading the way, he doesn't see any hope of beating the Bulls.

But now, under Shay's leadership, Robinson is convinced that he can do miracles!

Basketball goes into the net, Clifford. Robinson's three-point hollow shot!

The whistle blew and the Zen master asked for a timeout.

9-0, the Lakers stopped the Bulls directly as soon as they started!

The Lakers' new defensive strategy makes it difficult for the Bulls' triangle offense to move an inch!

Shay also came up and scored 4 points, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in the all-around data.

He's going to fight Jordan hard steel to the end today!

After the timeout came back, the Bulls' offense was still stuck.

The most exaggerated time, the ball turned in the hands of everyone in the Bulls, but there was still no chance!

In that attack, Shay first wrapped Jordan, and Jordan passed to Pippen.

Barkley added to Pippen, who gave the ball to Grant.

Robinson complements Grant, who gives the ball to Cartwright on the inside.

As soon as Cartwright received the basketball, he was slapped by the old Curry.

Fortunately, Cartwright reacted quickly and regained the ball as soon as possible and passed it to Armstrong.

Armstrong lifted the ball and shot, but was sideways by Shay, who flew from the side.

Perfectly complementing each other, the Lakers used their extreme defensive flexibility to completely curb the play of the triangle offense!

Shay, in particular, is amazing in his ability to help defend.

The bulls thought there was a gap several times, but Shay always showed up in time to block the gun's hole!

Phil. Jackson was furious, why did the Lakers rotate so quickly?

Because they always leave their defenders early and run to the next ball carrier!

This is a complete illegal defense!

Carlisle: Don't talk nonsense, we're just rubbing the edges~

There is still a big difference between rubbing the edge and directly engaging in yellowness~

In the past, it was Riley and Daley's dad who liked to play this kind of side-rubbing illegal defense.

But now, Carlisle, with the help of Thibodeau, is also gone on the sidelines, and the Lakers have been playing more and more illegal defenses in the playoffs.

The Lakers' defense today is fierce but meticulous, tough but calm, and the whole team is united and enthusiastic.

This group of tough guys also has a leader Shay who can always finish off the opponent's attack once and for all.

In the last 30 seconds of the first quarter, he chose to break through before Shay came up.

Sure enough, the entire Bulls contracted instantly, and Shay also let go of Pippen and followed Jordan into the restricted area.

Seeing this, Danzi jumped up and used a back pass to prepare to find Pippen.

As a result, Shay stretched out his hands and hugged the ball directly almost at the moment when Jordan made a passing move!

Jordan couldn't believe why Shay always reacted so quickly!

Because Shay's reaction to this goal was too fast, so in the eyes of the fans. Jordan felt like he was sending the ball straight to Shay!

Sure enough, Jordan and Shay are true love, and Pippen and Barkley are just their cover.

Series G1, the Bulls cut Shay and Barkley off the line.

And today, the Lakers cut off Jordan from all of the Bulls!

Shay won the basket and made a long pass to AC Green, who came off the bench, and the abstinent old boy ran to the court at great speed, and scored the ball in the confrontation under the defense of Scott Williams, the Bulls' substitute No. 4.

The man who hasn't tried it yet is really fast!

At this point, the Lakers turned the score into 31-23, leading the Bulls by 8 points!

Because there are a lot of mistakes and irons, the Lakers also have a lot of counterattacks.

Today's game completely fell into the rhythm of the Lakers.

Shay took 2 risks and 3 steals in a single quarter, which directly made the triangle offense unable to work!

and also forced the Bulls to make 6 mistakes in the first quarter of the game, of which Jordan alone accounted for half of the turnovers!

Looking at Jordan who gritted his teeth, Shay smiled slightly:

"Aren't you much better than Drexler?"

Shay's trash talk is a response to Jordan's previous taunt of Barkley and Shay's "I thought you were stronger than Drexler".

Drexler, the NBA's unified unit of measurement of strength.

and Pippen, a monetary unit of measurement, collectively known as the NBA unit of measurement duo.

The system with Shay, the point guard, at the core of the defense, has once again proved its worth!

Shay can prevent Jordan from not making it, but it is clear that Shay can smash the Zen Master's triangle attack to pieces!

Just as Jordan was about to respond, the Zen master who was holding a timeout used up a timeout and replaced Jordan.

When Danzi walked off the court, Shay also made a "bye-bye" gesture to Jordan.

Jordan clenched his fists and sat back on the bench.

Although I don't want to admit it, but.

He lost the first quarter to Shay!

Because the Zen master replaced Jordan, the 8-point difference was maintained until the end of the first quarter.

Bulls fans and on-site commentators were shocked that the Lakers were playing completely differently today than they expected.

In the face of adversity, the Lakers seem to be even more difficult to deal with!

This increasingly frustrated team has also impressed all neutral fans.

At the intermission, Jordan sat on the bench and looked at the data of his three turnovers in a single quarter and gritted his teeth.

This violent No. 23 has already begun to get impatient, what bullshit triangle offense, it doesn't work at all!

If I concentrate on scoring, Shay's beep will be able to scream in front of me?

!

The old Zen master looked calm and walked up to Jordan.

Carlisle solved the offensive problem in Game 2, but the Lakers still lost to the Bulls.

And today, he solved the defensive problem again.

The Triangle offense was completely curbed with the illegal defense of the edge and the terrifying resilience of the Lakers.

The old Zen master knew very well that his triangular trick had failed.

Carlisle's rookie was a little slower to react, but

It's amazing!

Zen masters are not the kind of people who don't know how to be flexible, or the phrase, the system exists to allow role players to participate.

Keep your role players feeling hot and the game will be easier to win.

But if the tactics are understood and the system is dismembered, the Zen master doesn't mind using that ultimate tactic:

Give the ball to the strongest!

That's what happened to Jordan, and it's the same with Kobe Bryant in the future.

Zen masters always find that balance between team basketball and individual heroism.

Now that the triangular attack had failed, the Zen master was ready to lift the last shackles from the monster in front of him.

He knocked on the tactics board and looked at Jordan, who was glaring angrily as if he was about to blow up the arena: "Mai Buckle, next you take over the game." ”

Jordan didn't speak, just gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and gasped for air.

There is nowhere to put his anger but to vent it all!

The old Zen master shook his head, the triangle attack was to make Jordan play easier.

But it's also a bind to Jordan.

And when this layer of bondage is gone.

Even the Zen master didn't know how much damage this monster could cause.

The Los Angeles Lakers can only win this section.

Next, you're all going to die!

However, the Lakers have long been prepared for this.

Next, it's time for Carlisle's strategy to enter the second stage!

The Bulls want to win at home?

It's going to be a lot harder than they think!

Thank you for the tips from Taipingshan monks and other bigwigs, thank you!
