At 6:12, the Bulls attacked.

Pippen held the ball and hit the basket, the momentum was pressing, and he was about to fly to dunk John Sely, but Celi didn't give up half a step and got up to block it toughly.

"Bang!"

The two collided in the air and fell to the ground at the same time.

"Tick!"

The referee's whistle blows, and the offense is fouled.

"Iron Fist, you can rest assured that no one will be able to get in from me." Sailly got up and yelled at Zhou Quan.

"Just do it, every time we defend, we have to make them feel pain."

Zhou Quan, who gave a thumbs up to Sailly and no longer smiled, only tenacity and toughness remained on his face, and he encouraged sharply.

His words made the Bulls' players change color.

Encouraged by a rookie, Sailly immediately became fierce and yelled at Pippen, who was getting up:

"Remember, bull cubs, this is the piston, and here we are God!"

Pippen, who had cracked his teeth, was discolored, and he really didn't have the courage to be tough with John Sailly, a bad boy, so he hurriedly lowered his head and walked away.

"These bad boys!"

Jordan scolded angrily and spewed angrily at Zhou Quan: "Aren't you not a bad boy?" ”

Zhou Quan snorted coldly: "Idiot, is this called bad?" This is tough defense, where did John get the black hand? You figured it out, now it's your offensive fouls. ”

“……”

Jordan choked, if this is our home field, it is your defensive foul.

But he also had to admit that the defense just now could only be called fierce and tough, and it was indeed not black.

"Michael, be careful with the pick-and-roll." Phil Jackson reminded loudly from the sidelines.

Next, Jordan obviously strengthened his defense against Zhou Quan again, his anti-blocking ability is top-notch, Zhou Quan's physical consumption in the first half was very large, and in the second half, under the opponent's extreme defense, the performance was not as good as the first half.

After the end of the first quarter, on the ESPN commentary bench, Howard analyzed: "In the first quarter, the Pistons played a devastating offense, on the contrary, the champion defender Bulls did not play as well as they should, 28:35, the Pistons led by 7 points in a single quarter. ”

Winston said: "He made Phil Jackson very tangled up in the first quarter because no one on the Bulls' bench could stand up against him, so he had to let Michael Jordan change the defense.

Fortunately, Jordan was indeed too strong, and he did a good job of cracking the Pistons' pick-and-roll tactics in the second half of the quarter and suppressing the offense of Iron Fist. ”

Howard said: "Iron Fist shot 5 of 5 in the front, 0 of 2 in the back, 5 of 7 in the quarter, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 12 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists and 1 foul.

The offensive state in the first half was indeed very good, and the second half was limited by Jordan's defense, and the offense was not as good as the first half, but in terms of assists, he also had a good performance, and he was the most important factor in the Pistons' first-quarter score lead over the Bulls. ”

Winston nodded and said: "Jordan played the first quarter, needless to say, today's desire to attack is very strong, 5 of 9 shots in the first quarter, 0 of 1 three-point shots, 3 of 3 free throws, and 13 points."

However, I noticed that Michael was dominated by sharp jumpers today and barely scored under the basket, which is a problem and once the feel drops, the efficiency will suffer.

It stands to reason that even when Ranbir was there, he dared to score under the basket, not to mention that now that Ranbir is gone, John Sailly and Rodman can't scare him. ”

Howard said thoughtfully: "In the first half of the first quarter, the iron fist scored consecutive breakthroughs, and the physical consumption was great, and in the second half Jordan strengthened his defense, he rested, so I think Michael Jordan is the same, he will find opportunities to exert his strength in the back." ”

"That's how it should be." Winston nodded.

In the second quarter, the Pistons came off the bench, and the smiling assassins teamed up with Mark Aguirre, while on the Bulls' side, Jordan didn't plan to rest and play again.

"This guy is a physical monster." Jo Dumas sighed.

"I wonder how Isaiah is doing?" Zhou Quan was a little worried.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Bulls attacked.

"Bang!"

teammates pulled away, let Jordan single Darnell Walker, fake the shot, and hit the basket is a violent dunk.

Howard immediately analyzed: "John Cely and Rodman are not there, the Pistons don't have a tough defense inside now, and Jordan's chance to score under the basket has come." ”

At this time, Isaiah Thomas had already pushed forward quickly, Jordan personally defended him, came to the top of the arc, was blocked, and immediately turned his back to prevent the ball from being broken.

Jordan immediately gave his foot to the body to defend the small, his knee directly against the base of the smiling assassin's thigh, his hands stretched horizontally around the ball carrier, ignoring the ball carrier's feint to turn left and right, and at the same time squeezed forward hard to force the opponent to make a mistake.

"Brush!"

At this moment, Thomas suddenly forced a turn and stepped back to make a jumper, and Jordan, who was close to the defense, had no chance to block and hit a ball.

"Jordan boy, Iron Fist is right, our piston is still the sky above your head, and you can't turn it over."

After succeeding, the smiling assassin's self-confidence instantly increased a lot, and the trash talk came.

"Humph!"

Jordan snorted angrily, his eyes glazed to the extreme.

"Brush!"

Ten seconds later, he responded with a pinpoint pull-up jumper that greeted the smiling assassin.

The smiling assassin was anxious to return the favor, and was accidentally cut off by Jordan for a while, and the Bulls counterattacked, Jordan scored another goal, scoring six points in a row in one minute.

Two minutes later, at 40:40, Jordan made 4 of 6 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 10 points in a row, and played a wave of 12:5 attacks, leading the bench to equalize the score and stop the Pistons at the same time.

After the timeout, the Pistons replaced Zhou Quan and Rodman, replaced Darnell Walker and substitute Cyrus on the inside.

On the ESPN commentary bench, Winston immediately analyzed: "The two point guards of the smiling assassin and the iron fist are on the court at the same time, the ball should be controlled by the iron fist, and the more offensive Thomas should be responsible for the offense." ”

Howard shook his head and said, "I think yes, Jordan defends whoever the other will be in charge of the offense." ”

Winston was stunned and quickly nodded yes.

On the court, the Pistons attacked.

As soon as Zhou Quan received the ball in the backcourt, Jordan immediately ran over, and then the former immediately transferred the ball to Thomas.

"Brush!"

Thomas received the ball and immediately rushed to the frontcourt, and after two people rushed to the basket, he made a successful layup.

"Sure enough."

Howard laughed and said, "Now the Bulls need to react, the outside defense is insufficient, let alone the inside, Pippen should be on the court." ”

A minute later, with a dead ball and, as Howard said, Phil Jackson brought Pippen on the field.

"Boy, let Second Master Pi take care of you."

Zhou Quan advanced to the front, and Pippen was in front.

"Isn't the second Bull Grant?"

Dropping a trash word, Zhou Quan went around to the left wing, away from Jordan on the right wing, and the distance between him and Thomas also widened.

"Who said that?"

Pippen followed and said angrily.

"Bang!"

Zhou Quan turned around, and under a ferocious back blow, Pippen, who is 203 cm and currently weighs 99 kilograms, retreated in response to the sound and did not carry it.

In the next moment, Zhou Quan turned around and struck into the left wing, and the prancing horse whipped straight to the left elbow area.

"Beautiful!"

Seeing Zhou Quan hit star small forward Pippen with his back and successfully burst in, Chuck Daly couldn't help but applaud.
