Zhou Quan retreated beyond the top of the arc, received the ball from Rodman, and began to organize the attack again.

This time, he made a tactical gesture.

Rodman and Leitner started suddenly, entering the box from the left and right wings low respectively, and they were very fast.

When the two crossed in front of the basket, Leitner deliberately borrowed Rodman's body to get rid of Tony Kukoc behind him, and Rodman suddenly moved sideways very quickly to block Tony Kukoc.

In the next moment, Leitner picked up speed through the box and ran quickly to the left wing, while making a move to the top of the arc to ask for the ball.

Mutombo didn't dare to hesitate, he was afraid that the ball of Iron Fist would be passed to Leitner, so he immediately turned around and followed Leitner.

"Changed guards!" Zhang Li said loudly.

On the sidelines, George Karl nodded, the key point of this tactic is Rodman's cover, Rodman's lateral speed is very fast.

Leitner pulled straight to the bottom left corner, Mutombo stayed in the left blocking area, put two meters, one step away from the left touchline of the paint area, and Zhou Quan began to break through with the ball at the top of the arc.

This time, after seeing the gate under the basket being pulled out, Jordan's position did not dare to deviate, guarding the front, holding Zhou Quan's abdomen with his right hand and raising his left hand high.

"Bang!"

Zhou Quan dribbled from the right side, and Jordan stuck to the left side, directly on the strong confrontation.

Zhou Quan's weight at this time has reached 97 kilograms, Jordan is 98 kilograms, the tonnage difference between the two is very small, but Zhou Quan is 7 centimeters shorter than Jordan, the muscle content is more than Jordan, and the strength has reached an astonishing 90 levels.

In the previous games, Zhou Quan did not play at his best, especially in terms of strength, and rarely crushed his opponent with strength when breaking through with the ball.

But this time, under Jordan's strong confrontation, he also passively exerted his strength.

"Bang!"

Jordan's chest squeezed against Zhou Quan's left shoulder, and suddenly a strong reaction force pushed his feet and shook his upper body.

"What?"

He was very surprised.

Knowing that Zhou Quan was gaining weight, he didn't expect his strength to be so great?

Taking this opportunity, Zhou Quan rushed over, jumped up against Tony Kukoc under the basket, held the ball in his right hand, and under the tomahawk split, he only heard a "bang", and at the same time the basketball was smashed into the basket, Tony Kukoc was knocked down by him.

"Beautiful!"

Zhang Reasonable said excitedly: "Zhou Quan leaned over to break through, depressing the center of gravity, which is more conducive to exerting force. And with his current tonnage and strength, it is impossible for Jordan to block Zhou Quan when he is almost standing straight, even if he stands in front, it is difficult to block, and he may be directly knocked over. ”

"Damn pervert, this guy has gained at least a few kilograms of muscle, how is it that his ability to move hasn't decreased? It's too inconsistent with the laws of physics. ”

On the field, Michael Jordan looked at Zhou Quan's body, which was full of explosive muscles, which were significantly larger than last season, and couldn't help but curse.

Five kilograms is ten kilograms, so big one hangs, it really makes Zhou Quan bigger, otherwise his strength will not be increased by two levels.

Phil Jackson on the sidelines was thinking about the supersonic pull tactics just now, and if Mutombo continued to be pulled out, it would definitely not work.

"Oh, the bull called a timeout? This is just the beginning! Xu Jicheng shouted.

"Phil Jackson is this style, players don't call a timeout if they don't play well, and they call a timeout when there is a problem with the tactics." Zhang said reasonably.

"That guide, what went wrong with your analysis of the Bulls' tactics?" Xu Jicheng said.

"It should be the supersonic pull tactic, Mutombo was pulled out, which is the Bulls lost the big gate under the basket, and the defensive tactics didn't play." Zhang said reasonably.

"It should be." Xu Ji became a Taoist.

Zhang Li said: "If Mutombo is not under the basket and is pulled out, then his significance to the bulls is not much."

His biggest significance is to protect the basket and prevent Zhou Quan from breaking through to score, so that the Bulls don't have to go in and wrap up, so that the supersonic outside line can't get an empty space.

If there is no vacancy outside, Zhou Quan's pass will lose his threat, and half of his ability will be directly abolished, leaving only a strong attack with the ball, which will have to face Mutombo's defense.

So for the Bulls, Mutombo must not be pulled out, and if he is pulled out, as in the previous two seasons, the Bulls will definitely not be able to beat the SuperSonics. ”

"So the Bulls and the SuperSonics have to lay out their tactics around this key point, and success or failure lies in this." Xu Jicheng nodded.

On the Bulls bench, Phil Jackson said to Mutombo very seriously: "Dickon Bey, your position is under the basket, even if Leitner gets the vacancy, you don't want to follow, his vacancy is filled by the outside, understand?" ”

"Understood."

Mutombo was stunned, but immediately nodded.

He didn't want to go out, he couldn't match Leitner's speed, and it was hard to go out.

Phil Jackson said to Jordan again: "Do you hear, if they try to pull Deacon Bell out again, I'm sure they will continue to do that, and you will make up for it when the time comes, and the rotation must be fast, you can give him a small vacancy, but you can't let him get a big vacancy." ”

"Understood."

“OK。”

Jordan, Pippen, and Harper all nodded.

On the other side, George Karl only emphasizes defensive tactics, and offensive tactics are controlled by Zhou Quan on the court, and he rarely worries about it.

The timeout ends, and the Bulls attack.

Tony Kukocchi pulled into the bottom right corner and Rodman followed, with Leitner defending Mutombo.

The outside trio pulled away, Jordan moved on the right wing, Ron Harper carried the ball to the front court and handed it to Pippen on the left wing, and then ran to the top of the arc himself.

At this time, Jordan ran from the right wing to the top of the arc and covered Harper, and Zhou Quan bypassed Harper from the inside and caught up with Jordan, Jordan had already received a pass from Pippen at the top of the left arc.

"Catch-and-shoot jumper?" Zhang Li shouted.

"Fallback on the three-point line?" Xu Jicheng shouted at the same time.

"Bang!"

Zhou Quan jumped in time, but he couldn't block Jordan's backward jumper, just like Jordan couldn't block his backward jumper just now, but the ball didn't hit either, and the basketball smashed into the basket.

Under the basket, Leitner is defending Mutombo in front of him, he is 7 centimeters shorter and weighs at least 10 kilograms, and the top defense is unbearable.

But going around the front is not conducive to grabbing backcourt rebounds, because people are in the back, closer to the basket, so the SuperSonics, like the Bulls just now, also lost this backcourt rebound.

Pippen cut to the basket immediately after passing the ball, Perkins was one step behind, and Mutopom grabbed the offensive rebound and immediately passed it to Pippen.

"Bang!"

Pippen received the ball in the left midfield, and the cushion stepped up, which was a flying slam dunk, which directly separated Leitner and Mutombo together.

"Oh roar!"

The United Center arena immediately burst into a very enthusiastic cheer, and Pippen himself jumped and jumped with excitement.

"Damn hillbilly!"

Leitner's temper was not good, and even though Pippen was his teammate on the Dream Team, he still exploded at Pippen.

"Damn bastard!"

was scolded by a junior and former national team teammate, Pippen was so angry that his face turned red, but Zhou Quan was next to him, and he didn't dare to be rude, so he only sprayed back.

"Just at the beginning, they both lost a backcourt rebound, and they all dunked each other, and today's game should be very tangled, and both sides will definitely have to test their tactics repeatedly to prepare for the finals in the future." Zhang Li said with a smile.

2:2, supersonic offense.

At the top of the arc, Jordan defended with all his might, and tried to press closely, not allowing Zhou Quan to have a chance to pass.

In the past, the Bulls were worried about Zhou Quan's breakthrough, but now they are not afraid of Zhou Quan's breakthrough, because Mutombo is inside, so Jordan dares to force closely.

Leitner and Rodman did the same trick again, but this time Mutombo did not switch to Leitner, and when Leitner ran to the right flank, he got an open space.

At this time, there were two closest defenders to Leitner, the first was Tony Kukoc, who was catching up with Rodman, who was two steps away, and the second was Ron Harper, who was defending Hawkins one step from the three-point line, and Harper moved one step down, two steps away from him.

When Lightner and Rodman were running, Zhou Quan didn't stand there and watch, when Jordan forced him, he immediately began to break through with the ball, first elbow Jordan to the left, take a strong step to the right, use strong power and tonnage to hit Jordan's center of gravity, and then immediately turned around and passed, rushed in from the top of the arc, and turned to chase Jordan one step behind.

And at this time, it happened that Leitner ran to the right flank and got a big vacancy, whether it was Tony Kukocz in the back or Ron Harper above, they were two steps and three meters away from him.

So this is the best passing opportunity at this time, otherwise in the next second, this big empty space will become a small empty space with Kukoc's pursuit or Harper's supplemental defense, or it will be completely gone.

Zhou Quan's full-level panoramic vision has been locked on the entire half court, just burst Jordan, when he pulled the ball up with his left hand, he waved his hand, and the basketball flew straight to Leitner.

Lightner ran two steps from the right touchline of the paint to catch the ball, then turned to the basket for a jumper that Kukoc and Harper pounced on at the same time, a full shot slow.

"Brush!"

The water splashed and the two hits.

"Well done!"

George Carr raised his fist excitedly.

"Beautiful! Mutombo didn't change the defense, allowing Leitner to get a big opening, and then Zhou Quan's pass didn't disappoint either, seizing the big opening. Zhang said excitedly.

"Anyway, if Mutombo doesn't change his defense, Leitner will get the vacant position, and it depends on whether Zhou Quan can pass the ball in time." Xu Jicheng said with a smile.

"Harper's defense and Kukoc's pursuit were also quite fast, but neither was faster than Zhou Quan's pass. Zhou Quan's pass is really like a scalpel, and he can pass to his teammates in the open position when he needs it most and when it is most appropriate. Zhang Li said with a smile.

"And it was passed when Jordan was pressing." Xu Ji became a Taoist.

"Zhou Quan just broke through with the ball when Jordan was close to him, just to prepare for the pass, if Mutombo changed the defense and went out, he could just go in, otherwise he would pass the ball." Zhang Li said with a smile.

On the sidelines, Phil Jackson was forming a trumpet with both hands, shouting loudly: "Tony, chase faster, pay attention to the anti-pick-and-roll." Michael, step up your Iron Fist defense and don't let him get out of the ball. ”

Jordan's eyes were even more fierce, at least half of the responsibility for this goal was his, and he still couldn't prevent the breakthrough of the iron fist, which annoyed him.

Next up the Bulls attacked.

Jordan's tactics were still running off the ball, getting an open space through a teammate's cover, and then immediately catching the ball and making a jumper.

He doesn't need much space, even if the defender is Zhou Quan, he only needs a small space to complete the catch.

But this time, Zhou Quan didn't give him a chance to catch the ball.

Toni Kukoc came out of the box to make a pick-and-roll cover, and Zhou Quan quickly bypassed Kukoc, and when he caught up with Jordan, his vision had already seen Pippen's pass on the strong side of the left wing.

The force under his feet accelerated to grab a step further, grabbed Jordan's side, and directly went up to the strong confrontation.

"Oops!"

Jordan noticed Zhou Quan, and when the ball came, he was about to take a step forward to catch the ball, but at this moment, Zhou Quan had a strong confrontation with him, and his center of gravity was squeezed.

"Smack!"

The next moment, Zhou Quan squeezed Jordan with more powerful power, so that the opponent lost the opportunity to catch the ball, and he successfully broke the ball, and then immediately held the ball quickly.

"Damn it!"

Jordan's face turned black with anger, and he chased after him.

"This is power, Zhou Quan's current confrontation ability can eat the entire outside line, and there are probably few who can compete with him in the small forward position." Zhang Li said with a smile.

At this time, Zhou Quan held the ball to the left elbow area, Jordan fell two steps behind and couldn't catch up with him, but Ron Harper, who returned from the top of the arc, had already reached the free throw line, and Hawkins was one step behind.

"Whoosh!"

Zhou Quan didn't come by himself, he went to the basket to attract Jordan and Harper's defense, and then passed back to Hawkins, who followed up.

It's just the regular season, he doesn't need to do everything by himself, as long as his teammates have an open space, his first choice is to pass.

Playing teams like the Bulls and Mosaic, only by giving full play to everyone's strength, can he have a chance to win, he alone can't win, and his physical strength is limited.

"Hawkins?" Zhang Li shouted.

"Bang!"

The next moment, Hawkins received the ball and burst out behind Harper, separating Harper and Zhou Quan.

"Beautiful!" Xu Jicheng said happily.

Bulls attack.

Pippen held the ball on the left flank and singled Perkins and hit a ball.

When the offense and defense were switching, Leitner quickly picked up the ball and retreated to the back of the baseline, flashed Mutombo's block and quickly sent it to Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan carried Jordan with one hand, and then quickly passed to Hawkins, who was fast down on the right wing, Hawkins received the ball and killed the halfway, and Ron Harper, who had a serious knee injury, couldn't catch up with him.

"Attack!" Zhang Li shouted.

"It's done!" Xu Jicheng said excitedly.

"Brush!"

Hawkins went from the right elbow to the paint and hit a layup.

Zhang Li said with a smile: "Under the coaching of George Carr, the supersonic team was very fast in attack and defense during the Peyton and Sean Kemp periods, and the fast offensive ability was very strong.

Later, after Zhou Quan joined the SuperSonics, he retained this style, and Zhou Quan's passing ability was stronger than Payton's. ”

Xu Jicheng nodded and said: "The fast-paced offense and defense can make Mutombo unable to return to defense in time, which should become one of the main tactics of the supersonic Bulls." ”

Zhang said: "And it is very effective, because Zhou Quan is the fastest person in the game, and no one in the Bulls can keep up with him."

Hawkins is also faster than Ron Harper, he has not been seriously injured, Harper has been seriously injured, and his speed is not as fast as before. ”

Xu Jicheng said: "Mutombo's role is only in positional warfare, he can't fight fast attacks, and he can't defend against the opponent's fast attacks, which is one of his weaknesses." ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "No one is perfect!" The SuperSonics also thought about bringing in Mutombo in the offseason, but it didn't come to fruition in the end, so they should have thought it through. ”
