Chapter 340: The Last Moment

The Bulls attacked, Jordan personally advanced with the ball, and when he hit the three-point line on the right wing, he suddenly made an emergency stop, and when Zhou Quan also followed the emergency stop, he accelerated and changed direction and burst over, and when he reached the right waist position, he faced Matt Geiger, who was making up for the defense, and hit a shot.

"Michael is good, and if you defend one more goal, the score will be closer." On the sidelines, Barkley clapped loudly in encouragement.

Reggie Miller sarcastically said, "In your dreams, he might be able to defend against the Iron Fist." ”

"You?"

Barkley was extremely angry, clenched his fists and said angrily: "Boy, are you looking for a beating?" ”

Reggie Miller said disdainfully: "Flying Pig, you can beat me again after you beat the Iron Fist, otherwise you will be beaten to death by the Iron Fist." ”

"You provoked me, not him." Buckley is extremely angry.

"We are all a family at UCLA, and to provoke me is to provoke him, and to provoke him is to provoke me." Reggie Miller's face was indifferent.

"Do you think you're the only one who has alumni? I have that too. Barkley airway.

"Do you have alumni of top-notch heavyweight professional fighters? Can you challenge an alumnus of the World Champion level? Reggie Miller said dismissively.

“……”

Barkley had nothing to say, and was about to run out of breath.

"Haha......"

Bill Wharton and Jalba both laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.

"Bang!"

Under Jordan's defense, Zhou Quan conceded a goal.

"Brush!"

Turning around, Jordan threw in a three-pointer.

"14 points, the Bulls are pulling back." Magic Johnson said excitedly.

At 60:48, the Bulls trailed by 12 points at the end of the second quarter and pulled back four points.

Jordan scored 17 points in the first quarter and 30 points in the half, and his shooting percentage increased to 50%, and the supersonic bench lineup played in the second quarter, which was better than the first quarter.

Zhou Quan scored 10 points in the second quarter, 24 points in the half, and after shooting a three-pointer in the second quarter, his form declined, and his shooting percentage remained at 55%.

Bringing the margin to 12 points was a boost for the Bulls, and morale stabilized.

Although Zhou Quan wants to beat the water dog, sometimes the state is not good, if it comes, it will come, if it doesn't come, it won't come if it kneels and licks it.

"Jordan has 30 points, and he can't play 50+ tonight." Zhang Li exclaimed.

Xu Jiji said: "In this finals, he and Zhou Quan have not played 50+, and it is not easy, they both played the first half, the physical consumption is very large, and the state in the second half is not easy to say." ”

Zhang Reasonable nodded and said: "If they continue to do their best in the third quarter, the state of the last quarter is really hard to say, but this section should be okay, after all, they just rested for 15 minutes." ”

Xu Jicheng said: "Zhou Quan didn't steal for the second time, and only gave away 2 steals in the first half, one of which was a frontal steal of Jordan, and then Jordan was stealed, and he didn't take advantage.

Jordan's performance tonight was really strong, singled Zhou Quan, and was only stealed once, no wonder he didn't call it a block tonight. ”

"Victory! Victory ......"

Fifteen minutes later, at the beginning of the second half, the United Center was full of Bulls fans, and the home momentum was still very strong.

In the third quarter, the supersonic offense.

"Bang!"

At the top of the arc, Zhou Quan took the lead and shot again, but he missed.

Pippen just rushed in to grab the rebound, and Jordan in the high post turned to ask for the ball, and he immediately passed it.

"Smack!"

At this moment, Zhou Quan came out from behind Jordan, and at the moment when Jordan received the ball, he reached out and knocked the ball away, and then took a step forward, and reached out to pat the ball under the precise blow, pulling the ball up from the floor.

"Squeak!"

Pippen was anxious, and quickly moved a step sideways, blocking in front of Zhou Quan.

"Brush!"

Zhou Quan pulled the ball up and immediately closed the ball, three meters before the basket, Pippen jumped and threw a shot before one step before the basket, and hit a ball.

Jordan emerged from behind Zhou Quan and flew to seal it, half a foot behind.

"Okay, third steal! This should be Pippen's fourth mistake of the night. Zhang said excitedly.

'Pippen missed a couple of passes today, a lack of concentration. Xu Jicheng said with a smile.

"I can't see him, and you can't see him?" On the field, Jordan yelled at Pippen in anger.

Pippen was so depressed that he couldn't refute it, and he didn't dare to refute it in the face of Jordan in a rage.

"Scotty, come and help me, I won't blame you." Zhou Quan added fuel to the fire at this time.

Jordan's gaze stared at Zhou Quan fiercely, as if he was going to eat Zhou Quan.

"Why, do you still dare to do it to me? Who gave you the leopard gall to eat? Zhou Quan teased.

"Humph!"

Jordan hadn't lost his mind yet, so he turned around and ran to the front court with a cold snort.

The Bulls attacked, Jordan received the ball in the frontcourt, or singled Zhou Quan.

Turn around and play back, arch into the three-point line, and then turn and shoot a step-back jumper.

Zhou Quan can't seal the ball, so he directly seals his eyes, and the blind Jordan may be able to shoot a few balls, but the hit rate is absolutely not guaranteed.

"Bang!"

Sure enough, the ball missed.

"Let's fight one."

Rodman grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, and Zhou Quan shouted as he advanced with the ball.

"Hit one!"

After the shouts of him, Rodman and others reached the audience, the 2,000 away fans chanted.

Gilliam asked for the ball in the low post on the left flank, while Luke Longley defended.

Zhou Quan pulled to the left wing, passed the ball with one hand, and passed the ball down.

Gilliam caught the ball and flicked up, shook Luke Longley and immediately turned down to slip to the bottom, took a step into the paint area and then stepped to the basket and hit a ball.

Larry Bird said, "Pretty! In terms of low-post offense, Gilliam is stronger than Luke Longley and Wilperdo, and his low-post offense is very ferocious. ”

The magic nodded: "After all, it is the 87-year-old star show, and so far in his career, he has averaged 14 points and 7 rebounds per game, which is not on the same level as the Bulls' two centers." ”

Larry Bird smiled: "Gilliam, known as the Hammers, loves basketball very much, not only has a good low-post offense, but also a good mid-range shot, 14 points and 7 rebounds, which is still controlled in 29 minutes of playing time, if he can average 35 minutes per game, the data is likely to accept 20+10." ”

Magic said: "In the finals last year, the SuperSonics lost on the inside and didn't attack in the low post, which was a serious lineup flaw.

This season has strengthened Gilliam, he can provide a stable low-post offense, and the biggest role is to keep the Bulls' interior defense in the low post, so this Finals, the SuperSonics are better than the Bulls. ”

At the end of the third quarter, the two teams tied in this quarter, scoring 25 points each, 85:73, and the SuperSonics still led by 12 points.

"Now Jordan has 40 points in the third quarter, Pippen's form has improved, and BJ and Steve Kerr have each hit a three-pointer.

Zhou Quan scored 30 points and scored six points in the third quarter, but dished out four assists and has already handed out 11 assists in the third quarter. In terms of defensive statistics, it was still one block, three steals, and only one steal in the third quarter. ”

Xu Jicheng said: "The Bulls still stabilized their position in the second and third quarters, and did not collapse, Jordan's leadership is really good, and this can be carried out." The first quarter was like that, and I thought it was going to collapse from the second quarter. ”

Zhang Li laughed and said: "In terms of psychological quality and leadership ability, Jordan and Zhou Quan are among the best in the league, their teams will basically not collapse, and the lower limit of the teams they lead is very high." ”

At this point, the time of the final quarter is up, and the players are on the court.

"Overall Champion! Overall Winner ......"

Some of the away fans who had come from afar shouted loudly.

Kendall Gill, Gilliam, and Schramf, who are desperate to win the championship, are also excited, and there is only one quarter left, and they are still 12 points ahead, and the championship is in sight!

"Victory!"

Jordan snarled.

"Victory! Victory! Victory ......"

A loud shout suddenly sounded from the United Center, extinguishing the momentum of supersonic speed.

"Brush!"

The Bulls attacked, BJ held the ball, borrowed Jordan's blocking, and shot a three-point shot at the top of the arc one step to the right, and hit.

Zhou Quan and Kendall Gill both made a mistake in prediction, they thought that Jordan would catch the ball and shoot, and they were ready to wrap Jordan, but they were wrong.

"Oh roar!"

The momentum of the United Center soared, and the cheers were earth-shattering.

"Ahh

After the victory, BJ roared with excitement.

"BJ, good job!"

Jordan yelled at BJ.

"85:76, now there are only 9 points left, don't be careless with supersound!" Zhang Li shouted nervously.

"The momentum of the bull is up, you have to suppress it!" Xu Jicheng said urgently.

"At the critical moment, Zhou Quan has to stand up." Zhang Li said after wiping a handful of sweat.

Supersonic offense.

Zhou Quan held the ball from the middle to the frontcourt, Kendall Gill asked for the ball on the right wing three-point line, he stuck Jordan with his left elbow in front of the top, pulled the ball up with his right hand, and pushed the ball to the right wing The moment he pulled it back, then turned right and dribbled past people, and dribbled with his left hand to take the top of the arc.

Jordan was deceived by Zhou Quan's passing action, and was suddenly clean, and when he turned to chase after him, he was already one step behind.

"Suddenly beautiful!" Zhang Li praised it.

"Squeak!"

Zhou Quan stopped at the top of the arc, shook upward, and Jordan, who pounced on him, flew over, and then got up for the second time and shot with three points.

"Brush!"

"Oh roar!"

By the time the water splashed, the cheers of the 2,000 away fans had already resounded throughout the United Center.

Zhang Li said excitedly: "Beautiful! Another three-pointer. He shot 3-of-5 from three-point range in the first half, 1-of-3 from the third quarter, and now he's 5-of-9 shooting. ”

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "At 88:76, Zhou Quan repaid the Bulls with a three-pointer at the critical moment, and now the difference has widened to 12 points." ”

Bulls attack.

Jordan and BJ repeated their old tricks, trying to find an open opportunity to shoot again through blocking and pick-and-roll.

But Jordan seems to have forgotten that the most likely opportunity for the SuperSonics to wrap him up on the outside is when he calls for pick-and-roll.

This time, Zhou Quan and Kendall Gil were right at the same time.

When Jordan and Jordan were unpacked, Zhou Quan and the two pounced on BJ who was holding the ball at the same time, and BJ hurriedly passed the ball from the gap, but at this time he and Jordan were only one step away, and Zhou Quan and Jordan immediately pounced back, and as soon as Jordan received the ball, he was caught in the bag.

"Smack!"

With a precise strike, Zhou Quan knocked the ball out of Jordan's hand, and then Kendall Gill grabbed the ball from the floor and threw it to Zhou Quan, who started to go fast.

"Bang!"

Zhou Quan launched a swift fast break, Jordan and BJ both fell behind him, and he smashed to the basket and ended the fast break with a ferocious one-handed slam dunk.

"Haha, 90:76, 14 points, Zhou Quan sent the fourth steal of the game, 35 points." Xu Jicheng smiled excitedly.

Zhang Li said with a smile: "His performance has always been better in the last quarter, and it is the same at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. ”

"If you keep fighting like this, the bull will be finished." Larry Bird shook his head.

"The defensive end didn't prevent it, but I made mistakes, and if I continue to play like this, it's really not good, and the Bulls have to improve their state." The magician said with some regret.

The Bulls serve, and Phil Jackson calls the first timeout of the quarter.

He said to Jordan and BJ: "When blocking and dismantling, that is, when they are packed, you must pay attention, pass the ball after it is completely disassembled, don't let them have a chance to return to defense, you just pass the ball immediately after dismantling, play like this, don't you let them wrap it?"

Okay, Michael, you and Tony go to the pick-and-roll, his pick-and-roll quality is better, BJ is too small, the pick-and-roll quality is not good. ”

Jordan nodded, he thought the same thing.

The timeout ends, and the Bulls attack.

"Brush!"

Jordan came to the low post on the left wing, singled Zhou Quan, and hit a mid-range shot.

"42 points. It also depends on Jordan's low-post singles, which is his strongest skill in the league, forcing the league to introduce an anti-isolation singles rule. Magic Johnson exclaimed.

"Bang!"

Schramf throws a mid-range shot from a small open spot.

"Brush!"

BJ played a fast break and hit a goal.

At 90:80, the Bulls trailed by 10 points.

Next, Gilliam made a mistake and was caught by Tony Kukoc after receiving the ball in the low post and was cut off.

"Brush!"

The Bulls hit the fast break again, and Pippen hit a three-pointer from the left wing after a quick layoff.

"90:83, 7 minutes." The magician said excitedly.

"The superSonics failed to attack twice in a row, and the Bulls scored 7 points in a row, and if the superSonics continue to be careless, the score advantage is likely to be pulled away by a wave." Larry Bird reminded with a grin.

Magic Johnson said with a smile: "Maybe they think the championship is decided, but now everything is still undecided, any outcome may occur, and the difference of 7 points is nothing." ”

Larry Bird said indifferently: "At the critical moment, someone has to stand up. ”

George Karl rolled up his sleeves, his back was already soaked, he looked at Zhou Quan, Zhou Quan shook his head, and motioned for his teammates to serve.

"Didn't call a timeout." Zhang said reasonably.

Zhou Quan carried the ball to the front court, approached the top of the arc, made a tactical gesture, and then began to break through with the ball.

"Beware of the pick-and-roll!"

Pippen on the left reminded loudly.

Jordan's heart moved, and at this time Gilliam stood on his right hand, and Zhou Quan began to break through from the left side, he immediately took a step back, and then moved sideways, to bypass Gilliam, to block Zhou Quan.

But Zhou Quan didn't break through, just pulled behind Gilliam, Tony Kukoc was in the way, and Jordan was moving sideways, if he continued to break through, he would only rush into the bag.

Instead, he went back to the right, where he was in the middle of the space, and then made a three-pointer.

"Damn it!"

Jordan knew that he had been fooled, and when he looked back, he saw the orange ball brushing down the basket.

"Oh roar!"

The 2,000 away fans cheered instantly.

"Great! That's great! 38 points, Zhou Quan scored 8 points in a row. 6 of 10 three-point shots, Zhou Quan really wanted to shoot crazy three-pointers tonight, and the shooting rate was higher than that of two-point shots. Xu Jicheng shouted very excitedly.

"Hehehe......" Zhang Lili couldn't stop laughing.

93:83, Bulls attack.
