304: From today on, the status of the first person in basketball belongs only to himself!
Rodman's rebound, Shay's shot.
The Lakers' most murderous weapon!
Michael. Jordan watched Rodman put the crown on Shay in front of him.
At that moment, he knew that he could no longer return to Chicago with a 2-0 advantage.
In the final 20 seconds, the Bulls couldn't recover a four-point deficit.
In fact, they couldn't even get a point back.
After Shay hit Jordan's key mid-range shot to stretch the gap to four points, Jordan's quick three-pointer hit the iron.
Mutombo protected the rebound, and the desperate Sabonis had to commit another tactical foul on the African Mountains.
The African mountains are still one of the two penalties, as stable as an old dog. But even if one of the two free throws hits, the difference has reached 5 points.
In the end, the five-point difference was maintained until the end of the game.
109-104, the Los Angeles Lakers relied on Rodman's record 11 frontcourt rebounds and Shay's career-high 45 points in the Finals to tie the series at 1-1!
It turns out that as long as the Lakers play normally, it is impossible for the Bulls to win the game easily!
After the game, the Los Angeles fans in the stadium were shouting the word "champion".
Jordan walked off the stage dejected, his mind full of images of Rodman putting the crown on Shay in front of him.
Although the overall score is only 1-1, although the Bulls will usher in three consecutive home games.
But the pressure on Jordan instantly became much greater.
He really can't imagine what the consequences will be if he loses again in this year's finals.
Not to mention, Jordan will lose to the same person in the Finals for the third time.
There is a more serious problem that is.
If he loses again, he is afraid that he will not have a chance to win back!
Jordan clenched his fists, and the next three home games must all be won steadily.
Even if it's broken!
Shay put his hands on his knees after the game, gasping for air and not celebrating heavily.
Shay was too tired too.
It was again a game with little to no break.
Shay made it to the playoffs, averaging more than 43 minutes per game.
This is mainly due to the presence of garbage time in the first two rounds, which has lowered Shay's average playing time per game.
Otherwise, the number will only be more frightening.
With an average of more than 40 minutes per game, you can't talk about controlling basketball, even if you control other balls, it's tiring.
You can think back to the AI in the 01 Finals in the original history, he averaged 47.4 minutes per game, and on average, he couldn't even rest for a minute in a game.
Shay's situation is actually not much different from him, because the 76ers in the original history and the current Lakers are facing a problem - as soon as the star is off the court, the offense is over!
Shay was really tired, the first time in his career that he was so tired.
For six seasons in a row, Shay has never been injured, never taken an early vacation, has fought until he is exhausted every year, and has not been able to relax in training every summer.
For the first time, he felt that he was about to lose his life.
But this crown, Shay must not be taken away by Jordan again.
He must become the successor to Bill. After Russell, the first player to win three consecutive championships!
The process of three consecutive championships must not be interrupted by Jordan again!
Los Angeles fans also found that Shay doesn't seem to have any scandals with new female stars in recent times.
This speaks volumes about the seriousness of the matter.
As long as there is a little extra physical energy and energy, Shay, who likes to simply make friends, will not be so idle.
Tired as he was, Shay managed to straighten his back and raise his arms high to declare his victory.
This scene moved countless domestic fans.
As a result, a non-mainstream quotation that will be popular in 10 years was born from the mouth of Director Zhang:
"Yes, that's Shay. Don't look down, the crown will fall! ”
Series G2 ended with Rodman's Monster and Shay's Toughness.
At the post-match press conference, the old Zen master was quite unhappy with what Rodman did tonight:
"That bastard, he's just contemptuous of basketball!"
Can a Zen master not be angry? Although it was still Shay who gave the Bulls the final blow today.
But if it weren't for Rodman taking Winnington down and disrupting his deployment.
If it weren't for the disrupted deployment, Kukoc would have been too tired at the critical moment to get out of the picture.
The Bulls are expected to win the game safely.
Rodman only scored 6 points on the offensive end today, but the Zen master felt that Rodman was as bad as scoring 60 points in a single game!
The Zen master originally wanted to deliberately mention Rodman and make the referee pay more attention to the guy who had been messing around on the basketball court.
At the same time, it is also a warning to Rodman: "Now the referees are staring at you, be careful!" ”
But the Zen master's accusation had the opposite effect, and instead of reining in, Hua Da Worm was inspired by the Zen master to have a stronger fighting spirit.
He turned off his phone that night, Madonna, Carmen, Rodman, all of them could not be reached.
Rodman was also very intimate, sending them a simulated big slinger endorsed by himself, and attached a message:
"My dear, I'm busy with official business right now. If necessary, please do it yourself! ”
Shay also politely declined the request of the three young models to go to Chicago with him:
"Little girl, it will only distract me!"
In this way, in the third game of the series, Rodman "defied" basketball again.
Shay, on the other hand, once again scored a higher individual score than Jordan!
In the first half of the third game, the two sides were actually very anxious.
At halftime, the Bulls led by two points, 53-51.
But in the third quarter, Rodman started to push hard, and he grabbed five frontcourt rebounds in a single quarter, and Shay converted those frontcourt rebounds into points.
Jordan, on the other hand, felt cold in the second half, making only 2 of 11 shots in the third and fourth quarters, and even missed 7 consecutive shots at one point.
The Lakers then seized the opportunity and stretched the difference to double digits in one go, and the Bulls could only watch the Lakers' backs go farther and farther.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Pippen and Kukoc began to hit four three-pointers.
However, due to Jordan's slow recovery, the Bulls finally lost to the Lakers 87-108.
Shay scored 42 points from the field, Jordan scored 29 points but shot just over 40 percent, shooting 9-of-22.
Jordan was also very efficient in the first half, and if he played normally in the second half, his individual score would not necessarily be lower than Shay's.
But the problem is that Shay can play consistently, while Jordan is a little struggling with this.
Also, after Jordan's shot missed, the Bulls' offense completely failed. But after Shay's missed shot, there was Rodman!
Pippen had 21 points and Kukoczy 18, but their efforts were insignificant in the face of Shay's solid 42 points.
2-1, the Lakers won an away game and overtook in the total score!
By the end of the game, the Chicago fans had fear on their faces.
No one thought that the Bulls' first game back in Chicago would be like this, and they would lose to the Lakers by a full 21 points!
Buckley, who is a guest commentator in the NBC studio, doesn't think it's surprising:
"Everyone knows that Shay is a stingy guy. Have you forgotten that the G1 Bulls won by 10 points on the Lakers' home court? Shay just doubled down.
That bastard, he's always looking back. ”
This battle shocked the whole of Chicago.
Because this is the biggest difference in points since the three finals meetings between the two sides!
You must know that in the previous two finals, the score difference between the two sides was often in single digits.
Win or lose, one side will not be defeated.
But this time, the Lakers actually won the Bulls by 21 points in one go!
That's not a good sign, the Lakers won by double digits over the Bulls in the regular season this year, and the Finals came again.
This is no coincidence!
The Zen master didn't dare to comment on Rodman anymore, he was really a little scared of the 91 who averaged single digits per game.
Last summer, after learning that the Lakers were hungry to sign Rodman, the Zen master also gloated that the Lakers were expected to collapse from the inside, and Rodman would disturb the Lakers' locker room.
On the day of preseason training camp, when there were media reports that Shay went to the hotel in a huff to grab Rodman out of bed, the Zen master felt that the Lakers were going to be finished.
But for now.
It can only be said that he was happy too soon.
And what made the Zen master even more desperate was that the reason for Jordan G3's sudden inaccuracy in the second half was found.
It turned out that Jordan strained his hamstring during the game and has been enduring the pain of playing.
Playing with an injury is nothing new for Jordan.
Although Jordan has experienced major injuries in the second year of his career, he has actually been suffering from minor injuries.
For example, in the 1989 playoffs, the Cavaliers shot the classic "The shot", which he actually did when he had knee and back injuries.
Another example is Jordan's strong return to the top in '95, when he actually struggled with a back injury.
In fact, in the 85-86 season, Jordan also returned early with an injured injury.
As a result, he performed the miracle of 63 points in that playoffs, as well as Bird's "God is playing in the No. 23 jersey."
All in all, playing with injuries was nothing new for players in the 90s.
But this hamstring strain made the Zen master very worried.
If Jordan can still only show the performance of the second half of G3, then even if he plays with an injury, he will not be able to save the Bulls!
Trailing 2-1, Jordan's injury to the Bulls is in dire straits.
The Red Army, which was with the Lakers in the 90s, the feared Chicago team, seems to have really come to a point of falling apart.
But Jordan burst out with surprising power in Series G4.
G4's Jordan dragged a broken leg and played 44 minutes and scored 38 points.
Throughout the game, Michael was still frantically breaking through and fighting Shay hand-to-hand.
He's doing his best to force the Bulls to postpone their rebuild, forcing the old guys who have been in the wind and rain to continue to move forward.
He desperately took over the game and worked hard with Shay to drag the bull forward a little more, and a little more!
Even though he bared his teeth in pain every time he fell, he would immediately get up and continue fighting.
Michael. Jordan's desire to win can be felt strongly even if you only watch one round.
In the words of the magician, "Michael has put everything aside and entered something we don't know about." Now, he just wants to win! ”
Such a Jordan definitely deserves a victory.
But, the person opposite Jordan is, after all, Shay!
In the final moments of the fourth quarter, the '90s, nay, perhaps the greatest outside defensive big man in history, made Jordan's two breakaways in a row.
Jordan's speed slowed down, and perhaps even Jordan himself didn't notice it.
But Shay is pretty sure that he can now easily bypass the pick-and-roll and catch up with Jordan.
Under Shay's active defense, Jordan missed twice in a row at critical moments,
Pippen failed to stand up, and at the same critical moment, he let Shay succeed in a row on his head!
In the end, the score was 96-92. Shay scored 40 points and Jordan 38 points.
3 to 1!
Fat Klaus held his chin with one hand in the stands, as if pondering something.
Maybe it's a deal, maybe it's a rebuild.
Maybe he's wondering if there is Michael in the Bulls' rebuilding plan. Jordan!
Jordan put his hands on his knees, and the scene was silent.
Chicagoans, lost two of their three home games!
3-1, this situation is something that the Bulls and Lakers have never met in the past two Finals meetings!
Chicago Bulls, are they really going to be swept by the Gentlemen in the Finals!?
After all, no team that has fallen behind 1-3 in the finals has been able to win in a reversal!
Jordan tilted his head unwillingly, but saw Shay on the other side of the midfield line, also holding on to the technical table, gasping for air.
Shay has also been pushed to the limit by Jordan.
Jordan dragged a broken leg and still scored 38 points, which Shay didn't expect.
He thought it would be easier, but it didn't get any easier.
At this time, Shay did not have the joy after getting the match point at all.
Because Michael. Jordan is the kind of guy who won't surrender until you completely defeat him.
As long as you haven't lost the game, you don't know what he's going to do.
So, it's a little bit closer.
It's still a little bit away from killing the bull completely!
Shay must hold on until the last moment and let this great Chicago Bulls completely reduce to the dust of history!
After this game, people couldn't believe how miserable Chicago's last home game would be.
The whole world knows that Michael. Jordan couldn't have accepted the humiliation of being swept by a gentleman in the finals.
Even if he drags his injured leg, he will do his best!
The game entered the final and most brutal stage.
To be precise, it was the years-long war between Jordan and Shay that entered the most brutal stage.
As the Zen master said at the press conference:
"Maikou's injuries are severe, and he is enduring unimaginable pain. But when the game got to this point, there were no secrets on either side.
There are no tricks, no secrets, now, it's just ball after ball! ”
The words of the Zen master have already hinted at what the series G5 will be: the fifth, the collision of blood and sweat, the duel that blocks everything. Game 5, the Bulls will do whatever it takes!
With the Bulls having to fight their backs, Jordan's fifth game with Shay began at the Chicago Union Center.
Before the game started, everyone knew that Jordan was going to be in great shape.
But I didn't expect it to be that good.
In the first quarter, Jordan played his eighteen martial arts skills and scored 12 points.
In the second quarter, Jordan played again after a short one-minute break, scoring 15 points.
After halftime, Jordan limped to the players' tunnel, with 27 points in the half!
However, Shay also scored 24 points in the half, and combined with the Lakers' continued strong control of rebounding, the Bulls still entered the second half with a four-point deficit.
The Union Center is as quiet as if no one is in the stands.
The performance of the cheerleading girls could not make the scene lively at all.
Because fans all over Chicago know that if the situation is irreparable, this is most likely the final half of the legendary Bulls.
In the locker room, the Bulls team doctor asked Jordan to put on a leg brace to ease some of the pain.
Less than a minute after Jordan put on the protective gear, he took it off again:
"It affects how I feel running and jumpers!"
With or without protective gear, Jordan's leg would not have healed.
The only difference: Jordan gave up the opportunity to alleviate the pain for the sake of the feeling of running and shooting.
In the third quarter, the tragic game continued.
Pippen's waist is about to start to ache, and on the Lakers' side, Rodman's small injuries are starting to kick in, and you can clearly see that his continuous bounce is not as good as before.
And Jordan, he's still scoring like crazy, defending.
It's only when you see him limping as he retreats that you remember that he's dragging an injured leg.
Shay and Jordan are still evenly matched, and the difference between the two teams has not been widened.
It wasn't until the end of the third quarter that an event occurred that could have changed the course of the Finals.
Shay's layup after breaking through Pippen was blocked by a rough foul on Sabonis.
He fell to the ground completely unbalanced, and the soles of his feet hit the ground first.
Under normal circumstances, Shay would use the strength of his legs and feet to prop up his body, but this time because of the unstable center of gravity and Shay's legs, all the weight was pressed on his ankle, which made his ankle twist hard.
Rodman was excitedly preparing to pull up his big brother, who had already scored 39 points.
Lakers fans in front of the TV also cheered as they waited for Shay to hit the free-throw line.
But Rodman and all Lakers fans found out that Shay didn't get back up.
He slapped the floor hard, frowning.
On the sidelines, Waiti, the Lakers' chief team doctor, stood up in horror.
He had known for a long time that Shay's tired body was a ticking time bomb.
Normally, everything is fine, but I don't know when it will explode.
He also instructed Carlisle to give Shaydo a rest.
But it's simply impossible, just like your mother told you to take an early break and don't work too hard, you can't achieve it at all.
Similarly, Shay won't be able to rest much unless the Lakers are going to give up the championship.
Mike. Brin and Marvin. Albert's two live commentators stood up:
"Shay went down under the basket and I don't know what happened. Shay tried to stand up, looking in pain.
It looks like an ankle, and Shay's ankle looks like it's sprained!
At this critical moment, Shay sprained his ankle! ”
Although it is somewhat unkind, but.
Some Chicago fans laughed!
There is no end to the road!
Taking advantage of Shay's injury, he won the fifth game to tie the series at 2-3, and there was still hope for everything!
Rodman looked at Shay, who was limping, and only had one sentence in his heart: "Fuck it!" ”
Nine years ago, in the 1988 NBA Finals G6, when the Pistons led the Showtime Lakers 3-2, they only needed to win the G6 battle to lift the championship trophy.
Results in the third quarter, Isaiah. Thomas sprained his ankle.
Although Thomas dragged his injured ankle in the end, miraculously scored 25 points in a single quarter that no one has been able to break so far. But in the last minute, the Pistons were about to win the championship, but they were still won by two free throws from Tiangou.
The Pistons still lost G6, and this directly led to the tie-break, Thomas could no longer support his broken body, and only shot 4 of 12 in the game.
In the midst of his grief, the Assassin watched as the magician took the O'Brien Cup. Rodman, who was in the second grade at the time, also tried the bitter taste for the first time.
Without that injury, the Pistons would have won the '88 championship and then created their first three-game winning dynasty after the 1966 Green Kai!
But there are no ifs in this world, and the 88 Finals can only be the regret of that Pistons after all.
And at this moment, in Rodman's view, it is almost a reappearance of the scene of 9 years ago.
The team was also about to win the championship, but in the damn third quarter, the damn ankle, it found the star again!
Rodman knew exactly how Shay was feeling at this point, and his ankles couldn't bear weight at all, let alone run and jump.
Shay temporarily walked off the court, and in the last minute of the third quarter, the Bulls seized the opportunity to overtake the difference by 3 points without Shay!
The United Center, which had been silent for a long time, burst into sporadic cheers again.
Everyone knows that the Lakers without Shay are lambs to the slaughter!
But even if Shay comes on with an injury, can he guarantee that he can win the game?
Jordan was also injured, but Jordan proved his form today.
What about Shay?
No one knows what else he's going to do.
On the sidelines, Victi looked at Shay's swollen ankle and suspected that Shay couldn't wear shoes at all.
If the swelling is like this, even if there is no structural damage, it is a severe sprain.
Victi certainly knew what the moment was, but he nevertheless gave Carlisle a doctor's diagnosis:
"In this case, at least a week or two of rest!"
In other words, during the finals, Shay's injury was not well healed.
Either play with an injury or pray that your teammates can nibble on the Bulls, choose one of the two.
But I don't know why, Shay relaxed a lot after listening to "at least a week or two of rest".
Since it's not good to recuperate, don't you have no choice?
So, Rodman saw Shay close his eyes, stomp his feet, and then look like Isaiah. Thomas, like that, seems to have entered a whole new world:
"It's okay, I can still fight. Viti, just wrap my ankle around the strap for me. ”
Everyone looked at Shay's swollen ankle and swallowed.
At the same time, Marven. Albert and Mike. Brin is nervously watching Shay and Jordan's injuries:
"Both of them gave it their all, it was the worst final!
We don't know if Shay will play in the fourth quarter, and we don't know if Michael will be able to hold on in the fourth quarter.
All I know is that these two have really gambled on everything!
Okay, now the fourth quarter begins, and Michael. Jordan walked on, as always, on the Lakers' side
Shey, on the Lakers' side, also continued to play!
Shay had a bandage around his ankle, but he's back!
With his team trailing by 3 points, Shay is back!
These two men, to continue their unfinished war! ”
Marvin. Albert and Mike. Brin couldn't believe what Shay and Jordan were doing.
A hamstring strain, walking pain.
An ankle sprain, ordinary people estimate that their feet can't fall to the ground.
However, Shay and Jordan actually have to play the most intense finals in this situation!
Chicago fans were a little disappointed with Shay him.
Why this guy just won't let Jordan go!
It can't be helped, both Shay and Jordan have reasons why they can't lose.
Shay needs to win three in a row, so there can be no more surprises in between.
There are many examples of ankle sprains on the pitch, but few cases that lead to more serious injuries.
To put it bluntly, whether you can fight or not, and to what extent, is purely to see how well Shay can endure the pain.
Shay felt that his endurance was still good, after all, they were all people who started in forty minutes.
Stick to it for just 12 minutes and it should be fine!
And Jordan, if he loses, the Bulls are gone.
Therefore, two people can now endure anything as long as they can win!
However, there is still a question about whether Jordan and Shay can still perform at the god level in the fourth quarter.
Although Jordan played three good quarters today, in the G3 game, Jordan didn't also play a good ball in the half, but suddenly pulled Curry in the second half.
Shay's state is even more unpredictable.
But then, something happened that the on-site commentators and fans couldn't explain.
As soon as the fourth quarter began, Shay broke through the interior and was knocked over by the tall Sabonis in the air. Before he could lose his balance completely, though, Shay tossed the ball softly towards the basket.
Basketball goes into the net, the referee's whistle blows, 2+1!
The audience was agitated, and Chicagoans couldn't believe what they saw.
The guy. Isn't your ankle sprained?
Why can he still jump up and play 2+1!?
Shay did have a sprain, and it took him a moment to slow down as he lay on the ground before he slowly picked himself up.
Then, limp to the free throw line and make a steady shot!
After Shay, who had an ankle injury, came on the court, he directly smoothed out the 3-point difference!
Mike. Brin felt creepy:
"Every time Shay starts, every jump, comes with intense pain! Honestly, I don't know how he did it! ”
But Shay had just scored a 2+1 for Michael. Jordan responded immediately.
Perhaps because of the injury, Shay didn't defend Jordan again.
Shay is already very good if he can stick to the court, and it is impossible to fight on both offensive and defensive ends.
So, the guy who defended Jordan became Finley for the time being.
So, Jordan scored with a beautiful back single to help the Bulls exceed again!
Moreover, Jordan used the injured leg to jump, and the result was still perfect in the air and height.
It turns out that Shay and Jordan can still perform better than others even if they are injured!
This is the strength of the two rulers of the 90s!
In the next round, Pippen's defensive stance was mainly stuck on Shay's left side.
Because Shay has a sprained left ankle, Shay's breakthrough to the right will definitely be affected. After all, breaking to the right requires a push with your left foot.
In that case, then defend the left side!
Pippen thought he had found a way to contain Shay's ID, but in the next second, Shay was stunned to use his swollen ankle to exert force, and he was stunned to burst towards Pippen's right side, and then directly drifted to shoot and hit!
44th point in a single game!
Pippen froze in place, a little incredulous.
Shay, you're honest, didn't you come on a spaceship from Vegeta and smash your brain and lose your memory!
You're not human at all!
Pippen is not convinced, the defense can't be prevented, then attack! Did Shay give up defending Jordan, he just wanted to rest on the defensive end. Okay, then I'm going to keep you busy on the defensive end!
So, this time attacking Pippen's off-ball run was very aggressive, with Shay's half-time gallop.
But
Pippen finds himself unable to shake off Shay's defense!
Shay also seemed to see through Pippen's intentions, so he whispered in Pippen's ear in a playful tone:
"Don't waste your efforts, Scott, I just let you have one foot, and you are also a level behind me!"
Pippen was furious, grabbed the basketball from beyond the three-point line, and then immediately broke through.
But as soon as they stepped forward, Pippen's ball was cut off by Shay's scalpel-like hand!
Pippen couldn't break through Shay's defense!
At that moment, Pippen was desperate to find a hole to get into.
He didn't even get an injured version of Shay!
Shay and Jordan, the state of these two people may have been affected a little.
But they are still gods!
For the remainder of the fourth quarter, this unexplainable continued to happen.
Shay and Jordan, these two perverted guys, instead came up with more firepower than in the first three quarters!
Their human side disappears and they fight only with their beastly instincts!
The only thing that is certain is that neither Shay nor Jordan can afford the team to lose this game.
They bite each other like beasts, they want to win, they want to win!
Every time they start, every time they jump, it seems incredible to the audience.
But this is the state of Shay and Jordan at this time, the state of trying to win, and it can really make people forget the pain for a while.
As a few months ago, when the smiling assassin appeared on a TV show and talked about the legendary story of his 25 points in a single quarter with an injury, he replied:
"You're not going to understand that state. That passion. That feeling can only be experienced when you get to that point, you really, really just chase the championship, pursue it wholeheartedly, and pursue the championship without giving it all!
That feeling...... You won't understand! ”
That's right, it's only when you're really in that state of going all out that you can do something incredible.
Jordan's famous battle for food poisoning in the original history.
In the 11th Finals G4 in the original history, Nowitzki scored 10 points and 5 rebounds in the final quarter with a broken finger and a high fever, and forced Haslem to score the winning layup in the final moment.
'70 Finals Steal Seven, Willis. Reed returned as the king, limping to defend the data harvester Chamberlain, and finally led the team to defeat the Lakers composed of the three giants of Chamberlain, Baylor and West, and won the championship.
History has proven one thing again and again - as long as the heart is decided!
At this time, Jordan and Shay have undoubtedly entered this state.
This state of being in a state where you can't feel anything else for the sake of victory!
In the last 43 seconds of the fourth quarter, Michael. Jordan dragged his injured leg, flashed and moved in the air, avoided Shay's pursuit and the obstruction of the African mountains, and got his second single-game 60+ in the finals!
Michael. Finley had done his best, but he realized that Jordan, who had strained his hamstring, was still out of reach.
60 points, Jordan didn't miss as inaccurate today as G3.
He kept himself in shape until the very end!
But even so, the Bulls are still 2 points behind!
Because Shay's personal score is 3 points more than Jordan's!
63 points!
In the fourth quarter, Shay scored 24 points in a single quarter under Pippen's defense!
Because Jordan and Shay were injured, Carlisle and Zen Master were betting on the state of the two.
So in the fourth quarter, both teams were very tacit and resolute. With both Shay and Jordan dragging their hands to the game, avoid a second man stepping up and changing the game.
Then, it's Shay and Jordan who fight for perseverance. So in the fourth quarter, where there were a lot of one-on-one opportunities, the two men almost all took the majority of the team's scores.
But it turns out that the younger Shay is still a little more stable!
Chicago fans felt unfair, because Shay played a full 5 times 2+1 in the fourth quarter!
11 free throws in a single quarter!
Shay scored 11 points from free throws alone!
But from a really objective point of view, Shay made so many free throws in the fourth quarter because Shay increased the number of strong bursts in the fourth quarter.
Shay knows that his mid-range consistency will definitely deteriorate after an ankle injury.
So, the only way to do that is to hit the basket without a damn blow and rely on muscle memory to shoot the free throws steadily.
In this way, Shay has 24 points in a single quarter.
Rodman pinched his face to make sure he wasn't dreaming.
Nine years ago, the Smiling Assassin scored 25 points in a single quarter of the finals with an injured ankle, which was the greatest and most incredible performance in Rodman's heart!
But.
Shay is one goal away from breaking this incredible record!
The smiling assassin of 9 years ago was ruined by injuries when the situation was good.
Nine years later, Shay refuses to follow the path of the smiling assassin!
He's going to win!
At 43 seconds, the Lakers took a timeout, but Shay didn't sit down to rest.
He told Carlisle: "I can't stand up when I sit down!" ”
Jordan gulped down water, he was sweating profusely, and his body was about to become dehydrated.
When the game restarted, both Shay and Jordan were the first to step onto the court.
23vs23, fans secretly feel that the story of these two men has come to an end.
Shay and Jordan, both limping to their designated positions, not saying a word.
Jordan would never have imagined that he would encounter such an opponent who was as inexplicable and tenacious as himself.
Shay didn't expect that the thunderous basketball god in the original history was several times more powerful than in the news and highlights!
The finals were 60+ twice, which was never done by Jordan in the original history.
Now Shay knows that it's not that Jordan can't do it, it's that no one can force him to that point!
However, he forced out a Jordan with more brilliant data, and he also had to defeat such a Jordan with his own hands.
At the start of the race, Shay faced Pippen, stalled for time, and then broke through in the final six seconds.
The only difference was that this time Shay burst inside and took off after he found .
I can't fly by myself!
The injured ankle has reached the point that Shay can't ignore even if he grits his teeth and insists.
The pain was so severe that Shay couldn't get enough of it, and he didn't jump high enough.
Pippen struck from behind, and the roof of the world was already reaching out in front of the basket.
Shay, who couldn't jump enough, couldn't dodge Pippen and Sabonis's five fingers at all.
When Shay glides to the side of the basket, he has no choice but to go to the basket or the whole person will fly behind the rebound and fall off the baseline.
Pippen and Sabonis also waved their arms to block the ball.
But in the end, Shay still chose. Put the ball back on your waist!
The audience was dumbfounded, what did Shay want to do?
Pippen and Sabonis pounced, but Shay also held the basketball and flew behind the rebound.
But at this moment, Shay, who was holding the ball in his right hand, switched the ball to his left hand, then turned to the side of the basket in the air, lifted the basketball with his left hand, stretched out to the front of the rebound, and picked up his wrist softly.
Shay landed, fell, and fell between the reporters near the bottom line.
He didn't know what was happening, all he heard was a desperate sigh from the Chicagoans:
"Shay! He made a pull-up layup from behind the rebound!
God, 26th point in a single quarter! 65th point of the game!
Isaiah. Thomas's legendary 25-point record in a single quarter of the finals is a thing of the past!
Shay, a new miracle has been created!
Moreover, the Lakers led the Bulls by 6 points by one goal!
If even this goal can't save the Los Angeles Lakers, then it's useless for God to come!
The greatest player in the world, from today onwards, is just one person! ”
Live in addition to Mike. Brin shouted, and no other sound could be heard.
On the Bulls bench, the bus only heard a "pop".
It turned out to be Phil standing on the sidelines. Jackson let go of his hand in despair, and the tactical board fell to the ground.
At that moment, Jackson knew, it was over.
The strife of the 90s is over.
The Bulls used up the last timeout, and the Zen master, with a trembling hand, drew a quick three-point strategy for Jordan.
Jordan was still calm at this desperate moment: "Guys, we haven't lost yet!" ”
Then he squeezed his injured leg and walked onto the court.
When Jordan came on the court, he found that Shay was back and back to himself ready to defend himself!
23vs23, this could be their final matchup!
Jordan glanced at Shay's ankle and shook his head, "Seriously? Let's change someone. ”
Shay also smiled: "No, I'll send you on the road with my own hands, Mai Buckle." ”
At this point, Shay found himself and Jordan being screened close-up on the big screen.
The whole stadium, all the ugly, the fans all over the world, are watching this picture.
The whole world is discussing whether Shay, who is injured, can prevent Jordan, who has 60 points in a single game.
Seeing this, Shay faced the camera, opened his mouth arrogantly, and then barred his tongue viciously, fully revealing his bloodthirsty beastly nature. He wordlessly told the world that Lao Tzu was going to devour Jordan!
The two of them had fought to the point of being covered in blood, but this was the scene they longed for!
This is the endgame they all desire!
The referee blew the whistle and gave the ball to Sabonis.
Shay and Jordan's final outlaw showdown has finally begun!
Jordan dangled, reversed, got rid of it, and was ready to catch the ball.
According to the Zen master's tactics, Jordan must shoot a three-pointer immediately after receiving the ball, and throw it in, so that the game can be hopeful.
The roof of the world saw Jordan and immediately passed the ball out.
The basketball flew to Jordan, and Jordan was ready to catch and shoot.
But soon, a huge force squeezed Jordan away, ruined his position, and stood in front of Jordan.
Jordan's eyes widened, he didn't expect Shay to be able to catch up with his injured ankle!
Just now, Shay obviously couldn't jump anymore!?
Actually, Shay didn't know why.
Perhaps, as the smiling assassin said:
"That passion. That feeling can only be experienced when you get to that point yourself, you really are chasing the championship, pursuing it with all your heart, chasing it with all your heart! ”
Shay steals the Bulls' throw-in, and he goes down quickly. Michael. Jordan tried to grab Shay's jersey, but he was one step slower and fell to the ground! Michael, he's at his limit!
Shay went to the basket, went to the basket, and went in!
67 points, a new record for single-game scoring in the finals!
Shay took Jordan's MVP, Jordan's 72 wins, Jordan's scoring title, and now Jordan's Finals record of 66 points.
He ruthlessly took everything from Jordan!
It's over, the Bulls-Lakers war is over! ”
Jordan lay on the ground, stunned for a second, then buried his head on the floor.
He still vividly remembers the final moments of the final battle of the '93 Finals, when Shay, who was only a sophomore at the time, passed Jordan with a non-slowing change of direction. Jordan reached out to grab it, but couldn't catch anything, missing out on three consecutive championships.
Now, four years later, Jordan once again reached for Shay, but still didn't catch anything.
He never caught the guy's back, and never again.
Shay lays up, lands on the ground, and falls.
He sat on the floor, looked at the 8-point difference, and roared excitedly.
It's over, it's all over!
From now on, only the 23rd of the 90s will be remembered forever.
And this man is no longer Michael. Jordan!
From today on, the status of the first person in basketball belongs only to himself!
