Chapter 105: Break Up the Magic Team! Let Orlando return to the lotto!

Compared with the tension in the Magic locker room, which could explode directly at any time, the Bulls' locker room is full of fun.

The team's big lead and strategic success in the first half couldn't help but make the Bulls players unhappy.

Not to mention, the faces of Hardaway and O'Neal don't hide their disgust for the other person very much, and Hardaway hates O'Neal for not covering him and letting him deal with Jordan and Pippen alone.

O'Neal hated Hardaway for not passing the ball to him.

Pippen and Jordan have both wrapped up you, so I'm not empty here, am I? Give it to me!

It wasn't until the last 5 minutes left before the start of the second half that Jackson slapped himself in the face and said with a smile: "Okay guys, the game is about to continue!" Let's continue with the defensive strategy of the first half! But there is a slight difference. ”

"Lin, you're the fastest, and if Hardaway starts trying to figure out how to get O'Neal the ball, then you're ready to shrink the inside and wrap O'Neal at any time! Fouls, direct dragging, or anything else is fine! There is only one purpose, to get O'Neal to go to the free throws! ”

"Let him make free throws, and when he misses, the Magic's offense will continue to stagnate, and everyone else will not find their rhythm, and then, Hardaway will continue to stop passing him! See what I mean? Jackson said this, clapped his hands excitedly again, and said, "This time, we don't just want to win!" We're not even just going to sweep! ”

"I'm going to break up the Magic! I'm going to let them start next season and never have any more Orlando duos! Do you have faith? ”

"Break them up?" Jordan was the first to stand up, twisted his neck and said, "Very good, what they said last year, I will never forget in my life!" What does it mean that Jordan is back, but the Flyer is forever gone? ”

"Then let them know this time that Orlando is still there, but the Magic are going to go to the lottery!"

"Hit them to the lotto!"

"Hit the lotto!"

"Break them up!"

With full pride and confidence to win, the Bulls returned to the court again.

In the second half, the Bulls did not change their starting lineup, still the first half of the five, while the Magic replaced Scott with Brian Shaw.

Compared to Scott, Brian Shaw's offensive ability and projection ability are far inferior, but Shaw's advantage is that he can be friends.

O'Neal and Hardaway have a good relationship with him, plus his basketball IQ and passing ability are also good, so he has an extra transfer fulcrum that can pass the ball on the court, and secondly, it can ease the situation between O'Neal and Hardaway, so as not to fall out directly on the court.

So, as soon as the second half of the game came back, the Magic team's offense really improved, with Xiao as a midlay, O'Neal was finally able to receive the ball!

In the first round of the opening game, O'Neal successfully got the basketball under the basket, and before the bag came up, he turned and hooked his hand to score 2 points!

"Pretty Brian!" After scoring, O'Neill shouted excitedly and gave a thumbs up to Shobi!

Hardaway next to him had a gloomy face, if he hadn't attracted a double bag with this ball, how could Xiao have such a good opportunity to easily hoist the ball into the inside?

This fat man just doesn't understand the ball!

At this time, Shaw showed that he is the most effective on the court, he first gave O'Neill a thumbs up, indicating that you hooked it beautifully, and then high-fived Hardaway, indicating that you are very timely to share the ball!

Next, the Bulls' offense didn't make it.

O'Neal grabbed the rebound and, after a little thought, gave the ball to Hardaway.

It can be regarded as O'Neill taking the initiative to show favor to Hardaway.

Either way, this game has to be played first!

When it came to the frontcourt, Hardaway reciprocated the favor and fed the ball to O'Neal on the inside again!

But this time, O'Neill didn't have such a good and easy chance! Not only did Rodman rush over to wrap him up as soon as possible, but Longley also hugged O'Neill directly when he was about to hook his hand!

Penalty Kicks Go You!

Hill, the head coach on the sidelines, bit his lip, the Bulls' defense made him feel very bad!

"Anferne's pass just now is average, it seems that his best thing is to attack, pass the ball or something, that's it." Lin Tian suddenly was behind O'Neal and said to Jordan beside him: "If it were me, I guarantee that O'Neal would be able to get up and shoot directly when he gets the ball!" It's not like you have to dribble and attack so much. ”

"Lin! Don't be too arrogant! Anferne's vision and passing skills are the first in the league! When he wants to make a good pass, he can do better than more than 90% of the people in this league! If you want to keep improving, you have to watch him well, study and study his game! ”

"Got it, Michael!"

As the voice faded away, O'Neill couldn't help but glance back.

What these two guys said is very harsh!

What does it mean that if it were me, it would be better?

What's more, if Anfernee wants to pass, it's better than 90% of the league?

He didn't want to pass me the ball and deliberately put me at the free throw line?

Some things, like seeds, if they don't take root, then they won't be taken to heart by anyone if they say it casually, but once this seed takes root in the heart of the person concerned, even if he is illogical and has a lot of flaws, he will be put in his heart by this person and pondered carefully.

For example, the current O'Neal, after preconceived that Hardaway didn't want to pass the ball well to him, and wanted to be his own boss, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Hardaway was wrong.

This kid must have deliberately not passed the ball well to Lao Tzu, otherwise why would other people be able to pass it well, and you, a player in the league, known as the most talented genius, can't pass me a few good balls?

As for why don't you pass the ball to yourself?

Don't think about it, it must be for the status of the team! This kid has the support of the management, and he has long wanted to be the boss of the team!

He's banging me!

This bastard is banging me!

He wants me to feel like I'm nothing without him passing, and he wants me to feel like I'm relying on his passing!

This kid, on CPU me!

After convincing me that I wouldn't be able to attack properly without him, he would intensify and end up riding on my head completely!

“FUXX! Lao Tzu is the leader and boss of this team! No one wants to take this position away from me! O'Neill cursed in a low voice, then raised his hand.

"Boom!"

“FUXX! Damn it! Let me in! ”

After another foul word, O'Neill raised his hand to send the second ball out.

"Boom!"

O'Neal missed both of his first two free throws in the second half, which was obviously a terrible sign.

Add to that his poor first-half free-throw percentage.

Tonight's O'Neill, the wind is obviously not going well.

In the next round, the Bulls relied on Jordan's mid-range to score another 2 points, and when the basketball was given to O'Neal again, Longley didn't think about it this time, and directly took advantage of O'Neal's basketball before he shot, and held him in his arms!

That intimate look is like meeting the love of my life.

Keep the free throws!

"If it were me, the ball just now would definitely give O'Neill a look, he turned around and wiped the inside line, and jumping up was an aerial relay! Michael, I've said it all, Anferne, that's it! Lin Tian's voice once again came into O'Neill's ears.

This extremely deliberate sentence made O'Neal suddenly think that if he really turned around just now, he would definitely be able to easily resist Longley behind him, and then jump and dunk directly!

At that time, even if Longley fouls, it will be guaranteed to be a 2+0!

What a rookie can think of, how can this Hardaway not be able to do it, just can't pass this kind of ball?

"Boom! Boom! ”

O'Neill raised his hand while thinking about it!

His free throw percentage tonight was really terrible! In the past, he could actually have a shooting rate of around 50%, but today, especially in the second half, he really couldn't score any of them!

His free throw shooting percentage, not even 20% at this time, is outrageous!

"Get the damn ball in there!" Hardaway watched O'Neal squander two more chances at the free-throw line, and he was desperate.

What the hell is this? Even if you let an orangutan make free throws, he will score at least one of his four free throws!

This fat man, he really doesn't get any of them!

"Then you pass your damn ball better and faster! You can give me a couple of air relay passes! You see if I can catch it, can I score directly! "O'Neill, who is the wronged person? With his arms outstretched, he squirted back at Hardaway.

Just when the two of them were spraying directly on the court, the two of them were in front of each other at the same time!

It seems like... What big red rat flashed past the two of them?

"Huh!"

When the two of them reacted and looked at the frontcourt, they could only see that Lin Tian completed another fast-break layup, and easily scored another 2 points for the Bulls!

Then, when Hardaway dribbled to the front court again, he chose to ignore O'Neal!

Let O'Neal's brains in the interior position be pushed out, Hardaway just turned a blind eye, and finally chose to force a breakthrough and scored 2 points on a layup!

"You give me a big man! Don't get in the way of the inside line! My breakthrough efficiency will drop because of you! Even if you don't block it, find a place to stay farther away! After Hardaway scored, he looked at O'Neill's gaze without hesitation.

Well, without the slightest hesitation, it was all unhappiness and anger.

This dead fat man is really annoying!

It seems that the team's management asked me, do you want Shaq to get a bigger contract than mine?

FUXX! Lao Tzu doesn't want to! Lao Tzu didn't want it at all!

"What do you say? You let me out of the 3-second zone? O'Neill's eyes widened as he looked at Hardaway as if he had just heard some kind of sneering joke that was not at all ridiculous.

"Yes, you leave the 3-second zone, don't hinder me from breaking through!" Hardaway continued to say to O'Neill while quickly returning to the defense: "If you still want to win, then open up space for me instead of watching the show on the side!" ”

"I won't!"

O'Neill's eyes widened and he said to Hardaway, "Lao Tzu will live in the 3-second zone tonight!" If you have the ability, you can pull me out! ”

"Huh!"

Just when these two people were busy bickering, Lin Tian had already given the ball to Pippen, who was empty on the wing, and assisted him to score another 2 points!

The score difference between the two sides has become more and more uncontrollable, and the magic team is not far from being completely destroyed!

At this time, Hill had no choice but to call a timeout again, hoping to help Hardaway and O'Neal find their tacit understanding again, and he hoped that the two could play well together.

"Shaq! What happened to you? You're not feeling good at the free throws tonight, and the Bulls are clearly trying to defend with the goal of making you make free throws, so you give Anfernee some space to go out and maybe we'll be able to come back and win. ”

"Why should I cooperate with him? I feel like I'm on the inside and can mess up the Bulls' defense, do you think it's easier for me to beat Longley or for him to beat Pippen and Jordan? Why do I always give in? Why should I accommodate him? Lao Tzu is the number one and the core of this team! ”

"I'm the boss of the team, I don't have to accommodate anyone! I'm going to be on the inside, I'm going to use my under-the-basket deterrent to destroy the Bulls! ”

"Shaq! Now is not the time to be willful! The question between you and Anferne, we can talk about it after the game! ”

"Enough instructor! That's enough! I don't want to hear anything, there's nothing wrong with me and Anferne, I just don't want to leave the 3 seconds zone, I don't care how he plays, I'm not interested! After O'Neill finished speaking, he turned his head and didn't look at Hill anymore.

Hill, who had eaten a soft nail, had no choice but to turn around and go to Hardaway again.

But as soon as Hardaway saw Hill coming, he directly stretched out a hand and took the lead and said, "Coach, unless you can convince that fat man to play in the right way, I won't listen to anything!" My style of play is the right one, and I won't change my style of play for anyone! ”

Hill, who ate two soft nails in a row, looked at Hardaway, and looked at O'Neill.

He's really helpless!

At this moment, he really admired Phil Jackson from the bottom of his heart, how did this guy alleviate the contradictions in the team? How did you make the team's large group of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods obedient and obedient, and not engage in those who had and didn't?

What Pippen and Jordan have a bad relationship and never speak in private, what is the league's top thorn Rodman, what rookie trash talk king Lin Tian......

It's just such a group of birds and beasts, why is he like a good baby on the Bulls? How can one O'Neal and one Hardaway here be incompatible at the scene of the Eastern Conference Finals?

For the rest of the game, Hill didn't make any more game set-ups and tactical changes, and he didn't have much to change.

He really didn't have much to do but look at Jackson blankly, his eyes full of curiosity and envy, but unfortunately, even if he asked Jackson how he did all this now, Jackson probably wouldn't give him anything but the middle finger.

The suspense of this game quickly disappeared amid the mutual complaints between O'Neal and Hardaway.

83:121!

In the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls won with a 38-point blood, and the wind swept away the leaves to tell everyone: Last year's Jordan was not in the best state, and last year's Bulls were not complete!

This year, the full version of the bull is here!

The gap between them and the Magic team is so big!

In the whole game, the Bulls scored 8 double-doubles, Jordan 27 points, Pippen 21 points, Lin Tian 19 points, Longley 10 points, Hubble 11 points, and the bench Kukoc and Kerr also scored 12 and 14 points respectively!

On the Magic side, although O'Neal only made 3 of 12 free throws, he still scored a double-double of 27 points and 13 rebounds, and Hardaway also scored 38 points by relying on a slam in garbage time in the fourth quarter and crazy bullying of the Bulls bench players!

However, apart from these two, no one from the Magic team scored a double-double! Not even a third person scored more than 5 points!

The third highest score was actually Brian Shaw with 5 points!

In this game, the Bulls completely beat the Magic team from various aspects such as star ability, teamwork, team atmosphere, tactical layout, psychological pressure resistance, bench thickness, etc.!

An absolute defeat!

And the Magic's defeat didn't even stop at the court.

In the post-match press conference, Hardaway said angrily: "I need more support, I was caught by Jordan and Pippen all night tonight, I need to have teammates to pick me up when I'm packed, teammates to help me cover!" Then we can defeat the bulls! ”

"I don't want my teammates to be in their comfort zone, I don't want my teammates to just stand where they like to stand! You're the players, not the spectators who bought VIP tickets! I think everybody can see that when Jordan and Pippen aren't targeting me, when my teammates are giving me plenty of support......"

"It took me less than six minutes at the end of the third quarter to the beginning of the fourth quarter to score 17 or 19 points? That's my level! We have to play more like a team than five people standing on the pitch! ”

Hardaway's statement, as long as he is not stupid, can be seen that he is targeting O'Neill!

He didn't even hide it, because his eyes were always on O'Neill while he was talking!

Therefore, at the moment when Hardaway finished speaking, there was no need for the reporter to ask questions, O'Neill grabbed the microphone and said to the media: "Anferneh is right!" We really need to play more like a whole rather than thinking about what personal data and scores. ”

"We need to be more selfless, and each of us needs to focus more on our teammates and not just think about playing ourselves! Especially, let me put it this way, my grandma was able to score 15 points in a single quarter against Steve Kerr's defense! There's nothing to brag about! The real powerhouse has to go to Jordan and Pippen! Go blast them! ”

"Lead the team to bite the score and then win the game, that's what you can be proud of, not wasting your energy in garbage time and playing a good-looking statistic! That's why I didn't play in the fourth quarter! ”

"In the end, as the leader of the team, I will take full responsibility for tonight's defeat! It's that I didn't play well enough, and the responsibility for losing is mine, and I know my free throws are terrible tonight, and I'll go back and practice my free throws! I won't be punished this badly again! Let's wait and see for the next game! ”

There is basically no difference between O'Neal and Hardaway's speeches and pointing at each other's noses and scolding each other, and the infighting of the Magic team can be regarded as a complete hammer.

Everyone can see that this set of Eastern Conference Finals is full of hope before the start of the game, there are endless possibilities, and even the two people who are considered to be the next dynasty team and ace combination are not far from separation.

This round of the series is likely to be the last time the two of them will play a series together!

Perhaps, the final suspense about this Magic team is whether the management will choose the fierce and brutal Optimus Prime O'Neal, or the dashing and versatile all-round guard Hardaway.

What O'Neal and Hardaway absolutely didn't know was that in the Bulls' locker room at this time, they were already laughing!

They turned on the TV in the locker room and watched the live broadcast of the post-game press conference, and Rodman clutched his stomach on the ground and laughed: "Lin! You're really bad! If I were you, I would never go to Orlando in my life! I'm afraid you'll be beaten to death by their fans! ”

"If these two of them are still playing together next year, I'll give Pippen to Disneyland as a brand new game to play!" Pippen also smiled lightly, he thought that their psychological warfare would be successful, but he could never have imagined that it could be so successful!

At this time, Jordan and Jackson, who had participated in the press conference, also swaggered into the locker room, Jordan looked at a group of people laughing like this, and asked curiously: "What are you doing?" Laughing so happily? ”

"Look at this Michael, look at this!" Lin Tian had already recorded this wonderful picture, and after pressing the replay button on the TV, the press conference of the magic team just now was played again in the locker room from beginning to end.

After watching this whole video of the two of them protecting each other, Jordan sneered: "Then I really hope that they won't watch what we just said after the game." ”

"What did you say?" Rodman looked at Jordan curiously.

Michael said he was glad the Magic didn't have a good guard to feed O'Neal, otherwise it wouldn't have been so easy tonight. Jackson shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "As for me, I praised Hardaway for about five minutes, saying that he was talented, that he was unparalleled, that he was the first person in the future. ”

"But he hasn't found a way to maximize his abilities! He also needed a team and partner that was more complete and suitable for him. ”

"You two, you're much worse than me!" Lin Tian gave a thumbs up to the two of them and said, "Your hearts are too dirty!" Much dirtier than me! ”

"A rising dynasty team, destroyed by you, you have to accept the wrath of the Orlando fans!"

Lin Tian's thumb quickly turned into a middle finger, then stood up and ran out of the locker room with a puff of smoke, without giving the two of them any chance to fight back.

"Michael." Jackson narrowed his eyes and said with his signature cunning fox-like expression: "How about a round of 100-point heads-up with Lin before and after training tomorrow?" ”

"No problem, but maybe Scott wants to participate too, the two of us, we can play Lin for a round by ourselves!" Jordan patted his chest and said that I understand your needs, coach, and I promise to satisfy you!

……

Such a huge gap between these two teams in terms of mentality and atmosphere directly translates into the quality they showed in the game.

Obviously, the contradictions of the Magic team cannot disappear because of two days of rest, and O'Neal and Hardaway, who openly crush each other, cannot get back together so quickly.

Therefore, the second game of the series between the two sides once again ended with the Bulls winning without any suspense!

This game was almost a repeat of the first game, and the Bulls firmly held the initiative on the court from the first minute of the game, and the score led all the way.

They continued the Game 1 strategy, dividing and isolating Hardaway and O'Neal, letting the rest of the Magic attack, and letting the Magic's role players shoot!

Obviously, when the two big brothers of the team do not get along, and it is an away game, it is difficult for the role players of the Magic team to play any reliable strength!

And the two stars were frantically targeted by the Bulls, and the Magic team played no different from headless flies in this game, and was once again crushed by the Bulls in all directions!

In the end, the Bulls beat the Magic by 19 points again 100-81 in this game!

They have won more than 50 points in their two home games combined! These two teams, by any measure, are not at the same level at all, and even less like teams that met in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The gap in strength is too big, and this huge gap in strength has not been able to narrow or weaken even until the home court of the Magic team.

In the third game of the series, the two sides moved to Orlando to continue the bloody battle!

Truth be told, before returning to Orlando, Magic fans still have some confidence, after all, the team has only lost two away games, and their home court is still there!

As long as you can protect the two home stadiums, won't the two sides draw?

Half a month ago, the Knicks just did it!

Not to mention that after returning to the home field, whether it is the referee's penalty scale or the morale and state of the players, there will definitely be a drastic change!

Magic fans believe that their team will definitely be able to pull back a city and make the game full of suspense again!

But...... The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.

The hopes of Magic fans were almost completely shattered at the end of the first quarter!

Back at home, the Magic team still didn't find any feeling, and there was no way to put the ball in the basket! Whether it's O'Neal or Hardaway, or the team's Anderson, Scott and others, it's like they've hit a Gu that can't shoot the ball into the hoop 100% of the time, no matter how hard they try, but the damn basketball just doesn't want to get into the hoop!

In the first quarter of the game, the Magic team shot an exaggerated 5-of-19 shooting, and only scored 12 points in the entire quarter!

And what about the Bulls? They were on fire in the first quarter, constantly impacting the Magic's defense!

Lin Tian, Jordan, Pippen, the three main scorers of the starters are bombarding in turns, constantly scoring, and under their leadership, the role players of the Bulls have also found confidence and played a good performance!

12:27!

In the first quarter of the game, the Bulls led the Magic by 15 points!

In the second quarter of the game, the Magic's situation did not improve at all, even if Hill has begun to stagger the playing time of O'Neal and Hardaway, but the Bulls, who have completed the separation plan, are no longer as comfortable as in the first game, allowing O'Neal to score points when he is alone on the court.

Whether it's O'Neal or Hardaway, they have suffered from the Bulls' crazy packs and high-intensity targeted defense!

With the abilities of other role players really not worth mentioning, the Bulls have completely lost these two leading stars of the Magic team!

The second quarter of the Magic's game, which was slightly better than the first quarter, they hit 7 shots in this quarter, plus free throws to score a total of 18 points, but the Bulls scored 31 points again!

At the end of the half, this game, which was widely watched by the outside world and thought would become the most critical, exciting and anxious game of this round of the series, was directly spent by the crazy Bulls!

30:58!

At the end of the first half, the Bulls were almost 30 points ahead!

And in the second half of the game, the entire Magic home court was much quieter!

Because at the end of the half, many fans have already chosen to leave!

The team's performance disappointed them too much, and they really couldn't stand it, as you can see from the live broadcast screen, the seats at the Magic home stadium are at least 4/1 empty!

A large number of Magic fans can't bear to see their team being abused anymore.

In this game, the Magic team was completely defeated! All their pre-game arrangements and adjustments were not played, it was still the same formula, it was still the same result, there was no resistance, and they were completely beaten by the Bulls!

In the end, the score of this game was fixed at 101:60!

The Bulls scored another crazy 41-point win! The Magic team has not played any effective resistance in this series!

And in this game, Hardaway and O'Neal, who could still play well in the first two games, were also completely dumb!

O'Neal shot 8 of 19 shots inefficiently, and only made 1 of 9 free throws, scoring only 17 points and 12 rebounds in the game, as for Hardaway, he was even more inefficient than O'Neal, making 24 shots in the game but also hitting only 8 shots, compared to O'Neal, his only good thing is that he didn't miss a free throw.

But Hardaway's problem was that he didn't make a single free throw in this game!

A superstar who is known for his breakthrough and physicality, but in a home game with 0 free throws, there is only one possibility for him to play like this: Hardaway is already confused! He was so entangled by the Bulls that he had a nervous breakdown, and he even forgot how to play.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have missed a single free throw!

With the two leading stars having a very poor shooting percentage and extremely poor performance, it is completely reasonable for the Magic team to lose this extremely critical life-and-death battle.

3:0!

The Magic are swept away, and there is only one game left!

Judging from the performance of the first three games and the spirit of both sides, the fourth game is basically a passing scene, no one will think that the Magic team can return to the glory and win one game at this time, and no one believes that the Bulls, who shouted the sweeping slogan, will suddenly let the Magic team go at this time.

It's not Jordan's style, and it's not the Bulls' style!

The Bulls have always beaten people to death, leaving no mercy and no strength to fight back!

That's why they were able to dominate the league, the most important thing!

Vicious! Watch out! Surely you will repay!

This is actually the biggest reason why the Bulls are really scary and dare not provoke them!

Hardaway and the Magic, who eliminated the Bulls in the playoffs last year and unleashed harsh words after taking out the Bulls, are the latest victims of the Bulls' iron rule.

What makes Orlando even more annoyed and painful is that they have lost, most likely more than just a series.

What they lose is likely to be a whole bright future!

Even though the series isn't over yet, the whole of Orlando is in a really bad mood.

The pair of 'Shark' and 'Penny' gave them infinite reverie and hope, hoping that they could bring the first championship or even a dynasty combination in team history, but maybe it has come to an end!

Or to be more accurate: the pair will play the match two days later, and their last game together will be over!

This summer, the Magic team is going to disintegrate!

And for the Bulls, they will not think about anything but to speed up the disintegration of their opponents with all their might!

In Game 4 of the series between the two sides, the Bulls continued their strength and ferocity in the first three games! They still haven't given the Magic a chance!

They still had the lead from the very beginning of the race!

Although, in this game, whether it was O'Neill or Hardaway, for their dignity and for their face, they all played a high level and ferocity that were not available in the first three venues, and even O'Neal ran to the outside to cover Hardaway.

They didn't want to be swept away, they didn't want to lose so facelessly, so they started a crazy counterattack!

In this game, O'Neal shot 11 of 13, and even made 7 of 9 free throws, and he scored 29 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks!

And Hardaway also put away his arrogance and self-righteousness, although he only shot 9 of 21 in the whole game, and his 28 points were not the highest in this series, he handed out a series-high 11 assists, and under his passing and command, the Magic team finally played like a team in this game!

In addition to the 57 points scored by the two stars combined, Scott, who was very sluggish in the first few games, hit three 3-pointers to score a total of 14 points, and Brooks Thompson on the bench also stepped up to the incarnation of the wonder man and the X-factor, scoring a career-high 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting.

However, all of this adds up to nothing compared to Jordan who is finally on fire, you know, in the first three games of this series, Jordan is almost in a state of health, he only played 33 minutes per game, and scored 26 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists with a 57% shooting rate.

It's all about paddling and winning the ball!

And in this game, when the Magic team finally made a little resistance, the omnipotent Jordan finally woke up!

He shot 16-of-23, including 3-of-4 from three-point range and 10-of-14 from the free-throw line, scoring 45 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists!

In addition to Jordan's 45 points, Lin Tian, who did not score more than 20 points in the first three games, also fully released his speed and impact in this game.

Lin Tian also easily won the Bulls' second-highest score and highest assists!

With 23 points and 11 assists, Lin Tian used a 20+10 as the final gift for this round of the series!

106:101!

The Bulls only won by 5 points in the final battle of this series, but throughout the game, the Bulls did not fall behind even for a second, they always maintained a 5-10 point lead, so that the Magic team chasing behind them was exhausted, and several times saw the hope of tying or overtaking, but each time they were ruthlessly kicked over by the Bulls!

4:0!

The Bulls have completed their pre-series rhetoric by really sweeping the Magic and sweeping the top team with 60 wins in the regular season!

And when the whistle blew at the end of this game, the two teams on the field appeared in a very wonderful state.

The Bulls weren't too excited, and the Magic weren't too upset.

The players on both sides shook hands, hugged each other, and greeted each other in a friendly manner, as if they had just played not the Eastern Conference Finals, but a preseason game!

This situation is actually very understandable.

The Magic knew they were going to lose, and the Bulls were confident from before the series began!

Win completely, lose simply.

The players of these two teams, on the contrary, became familiar and enthusiastic at this time.

"Lin, you played so well, if I can have a teammate like you, I will definitely be able to play even better!" O'Neal immediately leaked out his big white teeth after the game, and said with a heartless smile: "How about it, I have a big ladder tonight, do you want to come?" ”

"Your teammates are great, too! You're going to play well today, you just need to cover up for Anfernee and do some support work, and you'll still be strong next year! There's still a chance to hit the championship! Lin Tian let out a harmless smile and innocently gave the magic duo the last shot.

"Just like we have here, we all have Michael as the boss, so we can win all the time, and if you can also identify a leader and start playing this way early, this series will definitely go through seven games!"

"Why did I cover him up, not him to open up space for me?" O'Neal rolled his eyes and said, "I know you're good for me, but which super center have you ever seen that plays for the guard?" Abdul-Jabbar? Olajuwon? Robinson? They never do! ”

"I would never do anything like that!"

"Shaq, I'm more straightforward, but I really treat you as my friend, so there are some things I still have to say, even if you're angry." Lin Tian leaked an actor-level hesitation and deliberate expression, and then said slowly: "Do you think your fans and management prefer you or Anferne?" ”

"Yes, of course...... Be...... It's me! O'Neill originally opened his mouth to give Lin Tian an answer, but as he spoke, he hesitated, and finally said that it was him, but his tone was extremely weak.

Obviously, O'Neal is well aware of who Orlando's fans prefer, and who the Magic's management prefers.

Hardaway is the one who can attract fans to buy tickets more and make more money for management!
