Chapter 242 Shaking Jordan Down

Chapter 242 Shaking Jordan Down

At 12:10, the Knicks trailed by 2 points and the Bulls attacked.

Kidd made a fake pass from the top of the arc, shook Billups away, and then made a three-pointer, but missed. Ben protected the backcourt rebound and passed it to Billups immediately. The Knicks counterattacked .

Zhao Dong got off quickly, and after catching the ball, he carried Jordan into the basket, and the two flew together in the Knicks paint area.

Another offensive and defensive duel in the air, at this moment, the eyes of hundreds of millions of fans around the world focused on the two again.

"not enough!"

Flying on the right side of Zhao Dong, Jordan blocked the shot, but suddenly found out that his defensive height was not enough, and his fingertips barely reached Zhao Dong's wrist, which shocked him too much.

Even though Jordan was on the right side, Zhao Dong didn't change hands, he still held the ball in his right hand, jumped with all his strength and hit the basket with all his strength.

With the blessing of the Silver Devil, he is confident that his jumping height will never be weaker than the aging Jordan, and he still has the advantages of height and wingspan. He is confident that Jordan can't cover him.

"boom!"

At the moment when the strong sound of frying baskets sounded, Madison Square Garden was boiling.

"In the second aerial offensive and defensive duel, the flying dragon succeeded in dunking, and he won again!" Cook roared excitedly in the ABC live broadcast.

"When having the same ability to bounce and stay in the air at the same time, the dragon's inside physique has an advantage, which will put Jordan at a disadvantage in this kind of duel." Hubie Brown analyzed.

In the CCTV live broadcast booth, Zhang Lili yelled excitedly again: "Twelve draws, Feilong used a fast-break dunk to help the team equalize the score.

This is the second aerial offensive and defensive duel between him and Jordan after the start, and he won with one attack and one defense.Compared with Jordan, one is like the rising sun, and the other is like the setting sun that is about to end.

Now an old era is ending and a new era is rising. Every match between them is worth our cherishing. "

Sun Zhenping explained: "Zhao Dong made 7 of 6 shots and scored 12 points. He shot with all his strength at the beginning, and he scored all the Knicks' points.

On the other side, Jordan made 3 of 2 shots and scored 4 points and 1 assist. "

Zhang Lili went on to say: "Compared to the two teams, the Knicks' scoring is too concentrated. Zhao Dong should pay attention to this point. The physical distribution must be reasonable and his teammates must be mobilized.

The Bulls scored relatively average, Jordan 4 points, Ewing 2 2 shots 4 points, Tracy McGrady and Kidd each 2 points. "

Of course, Old Nelson also noticed the problem of too concentrated scoring, but Zhao Dong's efficiency was too high, so he didn't stop him, but yelled from the sidelines, telling Zhao Dong to pay attention to physical distribution.

He then replaced Billups and John Starks to strengthen the offense.

In the following time, due to the excessive physical consumption in the early stage, Zhao Dong reduced his personal attack and began to organize the attack.

At the end of the first quarter, at 26:26, the two teams tied.

赵东10投8中,1罚1中,轰下17分3篮板2助攻2盖帽1犯规的数据。

乔丹第一节只出手4次,命中了3球,加上2罚2中,拿到了8分1助攻3篮板1抢断的数据。

In the ABC live broadcast, Hubie Brown analyzed: "The Bulls played a different style of play today. Under Kidd's organization, everyone participated in the offense and scored very evenly. This is a very good side."

Cook nodded and said, "The Bulls grabbed 7 rebounds in a single quarter, while the Knicks had 10. Even though they were leading in rebounds, they tied. This shows that the Knicks' offensive efficiency is lower than that of the Bulls."

Hubie Brown said again: "Obviously, the most efficient person in the game is still the flying dragon. But we must note that the Bulls sent 7 assists in a single quarter, Kidd sent 4 assists alone, and the Knicks only sent 5 assists. , In terms of overall offensive efficiency, the Bulls have the upper hand.

The reason why the Knicks can maintain a tie is because of the efficiency of the dragon and the advantage of rebounding. "

During the live broadcast of CCTV, Zhang Lili was also analyzing, saying: "Ewing is very important, he actually played for 10 minutes in the first quarter, showing his strength.

He scored 7 points, 5 of 3 shots and 2 of 1 free throws. The efficiency is good. It is very difficult for Daben to defend him alone, and he is basically blown up.

This point of his supported the low-post offense that the Bulls did not have before, shared the offensive pressure for Jordan, and prevented the Knicks from double-teaming Jordan unscrupulously. He played a great role.

What the Knicks have to solve now is to strengthen the defense against Ewing on the weak side, and at the same time strengthen the defense against Kidd. Don't let him pass as he wants.

Billups is still too good, can't guard Kidd, and the organization is not good. He made two turnovers in just a few minutes in the first quarter.

In addition, the Knicks' bench is stronger than the Bulls'. The strength of the Bulls lies in the main lineup. The Knicks should make good use of this and beat the Bulls with the bench lineup.

In fact, the Knicks' main force can carry the Bulls' main force, which is already very good. "

On the Knicks bench, Nelson Sr. is mobilizing troops.

At the critical moment, Zhao Dong played the whole court, and still led his team to play in the second quarter, controlling the ball.

Then there is Danny Fortson on the inside, coupled with Larry Johnson who is attacking in the low post, and Hu Weidong and John Starks on the outside.

All five players are capable of attacking, averaging more than [-] points per game. Fortson's offense is slightly weaker, but he also averaged nearly [-] points per game in the regular season, which is better than Daben.

Among them, Hu Weidong and John Starks are both guards who can shoot inside and outside, and their defense is not weak.

It can be said that with Zhao Dong, this lineup is no worse than the main lineup.

In the second quarter, Zhao Dong focused on organization and defense, supplemented by offense.

For the Bulls, Jordan also played, plus Kidd, Cole, Scott Burrell and Bill Wennington inside, two main players with three substitutes.

次节,赵东单节送出6次助攻,在进攻端也打了几个,全部是冲击篮下,次节4投3中,4罚4中,半场14投11中,5罚5中,轰下27分7篮板8助攻1抢断4盖帽1失误3犯规的数据。

But the Knicks failed to lead by many points. At the end of the half, 51:54, they only led by 3 points.

Because the substitute lineup was not good, Jordan, who didn't play much in the first quarter, controlled the offense in the second quarter and fired with all his strength. Under the double-teaming of Zhao Dong and his teammates, he made 12 of 6 shots and 4 of 3 free throws, scoring 15 points. , Helping the team bite the score.

"Although the Bulls' main lineup is extremely strong, the substitutes are too poor. This is a test for Jordan. I hope his physical fitness can last until the fourth quarter." Hubie Brown said.

"He didn't play much in the first quarter, and with a 15-minute half-time rest, I think his physical condition should be able to handle it." Cook said.

"Well, Feilong doesn't attack much in the second quarter, which is just the opposite of Jordan. But physically, he must be much better than Jordan, and the advantage of being young is too great." Hubie Brown said.

Back in the locker room, Jordan lay directly on the massage table and asked the physical therapist to massage him to help him recover from physical fatigue faster.

"How is it?" Phil Jackson asked while bowing.

"My fitness is fine." Jordan said.

Nodding his head, Jackson said, "Patrick came on in the third quarter. We played like the first quarter. We bloomed a few points and tried to hold the score. You can save some energy, and we will give full play in the fourth quarter."

Nodding his head, Jordan didn't speak any more.

In the locker room of the home team, Zhao Dong took the data sheet from Thibodeau and looked at the data of the Bulls.

"Ewing will definitely play in the third quarter. Our defensive energy will be divided. The Bulls are likely to be like the first quarter. Jordan's shots should not be many, which is conducive to preserving his physical energy. Phil Jackson is likely to be in the fourth quarter. Let’s start a decisive battle.”

Old Nelson analyzed: "I mean, Feilong, we are the same in the third quarter as in the second quarter. You focus on organization, supplemented by offense, and we also have a decisive battle in the fourth quarter. Ewing's physical fitness will definitely not work in the fourth quarter. Now, you and Jordan will have a showdown in the final quarter."

"Yes." Zhao Dong said.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the two sides were still half main force and half substitute.

After this quarter, 75:75, the two teams tied.

Ewing was old and strong, making 7 of 4 shots in a single quarter, blowing up Big Ben.

"Ben Wallace's height is not enough. Ewing is so old, and he is quite easy to play. The Knicks have been training him this season. I don't know if he can grow up. If he can't play, it will be in vain and a waste of time. .”

Zhang Lili was a little worried.

Sun Zhenping said with a smile: "However, Zhao Dong played well. In the third quarter, he sent out 5 assists again, and he has already hit a triple-double."

"Yes, we scored 35 points in three quarters. Tonight's 40+ is stable. But the game is still not good. The Bulls are really strong. The main reason is that Ewing didn't kill him at this point. He exploded tonight. I have been working hard all season, just to break out in the playoffs." Zhang Lili said.

"4000 million? Not bad."

Stern received the report, because the game was very anxious, so the ratings rose again and again, reaching a high point that has never been reached in history.

"It would be great if it was the finals."

But he still has some pity. Zhao Dong and Jordan are both in the Eastern Conference. Once they reach the Finals, the Western Conference teams, whether it is the Jazz or the Lakers, may not be the opponents of these two teams. The ratings of the Finals may be low. Not as good as the Eastern Conference.

Especially after the Spurs grow up, once they reach the finals, he is even more worried that the ratings will plummet.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Nelson Sr. replaced Zhao Dong, Da Ben, and Fortson's inside and striker combination, and the outside line was Alan Houston and Hu Weidong.

In the second quarter plus the third quarter, Hu Weidong has played 6 minutes tonight and made 5 of 3 shots, including two dunks after catching the ball after an inside cut. He made 3 of 1 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws. Scoring 9 points, the efficiency is very good, and has won the trust of the old Nelson.

On the Bulls side, all the main players played in the fourth quarter.

The Knicks took the lead in attacking, and Zhao Dong played the No. [-] position and advanced with the ball himself.

Jordan matched up, defended and retreated.

When he came to the frontcourt, Zhao Dong made a tactical gesture before approaching the top of the arc, and the others started to move.

Big Ben and Fortson are in the low post on the left and right wings.

Hu Weidong and Alan Houston are active on the left and right wings respectively, because Zhao Dong holds the ball in a high position, limited by the law, they cannot sink, and must stay above the free throw line and its dotted line.

"Bang bang bang..."

Zhao Dong leaned over to dribble and approached the top of the arc.

At this time, he suddenly changed direction in front of his body, and with his extremely fast first step, Jordan was suddenly caught.

Entering the paint area, the Bulls immediately shrunk their defense. Ewing, Rodman, and Jordan surrounded and suppressed Zhao Dong.

While Zhao Dong broke through with the ball, Hu Weidong on the left suddenly moved towards the top of the arc, and Alan Houston on the right moved towards the bottom right corner. Both of them got rid of their defenders and got a small open space.

Zhao Dong just broke through Jordan, and after a further step, he suddenly joined the ball and jumped up.

At this time Ewing and Rodman also jumped up, and the four arms formed a barrier in front of him.

And Jordan also jumped up behind him, ready to put his hat on Zhao Dong.

"Split the ball!"

Zhang Lili shouted loudly.

At this moment, Zhao Dong's breakthrough attracted three people to double-team, plus the outside running position, the other four people got open opportunities, which was the best pass opportunity.

At this moment, Zhao Dong flicked his left hand back, and the ball flew to the top of the arc.

"One-handed back pass! Don't look at the pass!" The live commentator shouted loudly.

Just as Hu Weidong ran to the top of the arc, the ball just arrived. At this time, McGrady was still one step away. He caught the ball and took a three-pointer.

McGrady flew to block, the ball slipped from his fingertips, and then he flew past Hu Weidong.

"Shh!"

Splashes appeared and a three-pointer was hit.

"ah!"

After hitting a three-pointer again, Hu Weidong shouted excitedly.

This season, he has added training on positioning three-pointers and shooting speed to increase his strength as a role player, and now he is seeing results.

"Clap clap clap..."

For this ball, Old Nelson clapped his hands.

Bulls attack.

Zhao Dong faced Jordan on the right wing, and the latter kept running.

He has better physical fitness than Jordan, and he follows very closely.

The Bulls' two insiders, whether it is Ewing or Rodman, are not as big as him in terms of tonnage and strength. There are ten players on the court, and his tonnage is considered the largest. No one can make a wall.

Jordan ran for four or five seconds, did not get an open space, and immediately passed a reverse run, pulled outside the three-point line, and then received the ball.

Zhao Dong caught up to the three-point line and sprayed: "You don't shoot three-pointers this season, is it because you can't make it?"

Jordan didn't talk back, and the offensive clock was running out.

He grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, swept it back, blocked Zhao Dong with his left hand, suddenly started, and broke through to the right.

Zhao Dong quickly moved to the defense, but at this moment, Jordan suddenly braked with one foot, was unlucky, controlled the ball with his left hand, and rushed to the left.

Zhao Dong reacted in time, turned around and chased after him. After two steps, he chased to Jordan's right rear.

At this moment, Jordan braked again and made a sudden stop for a jumper.

And Zhao Dong also jumped up and blocked the shot from the side.

"The third offensive and defensive duel in the air!" This thought flashed through everyone's mind.

Thanks to his height and wingspan, after Zhao Dong jumped up, his defensive height was higher than Jordan's shot height, but just when his left hand was about to touch the ball, Jordan's body lay back, and at the same time the ball quickly contacted him. His left hand is pulled away.

"No, a fadeaway jumper?"

His heart skipped a beat, and the next moment he saw Jordan release the ball, the ball slid over his fingertips and headed for the hoop, and he flew past Jordan and landed on the ground.

"Shh!"

Splashes appeared and two points were hit.

"Boy, did my shooting make you feel good? I have to thank you, you let it have its own soul." After succeeding, Jordan immediately sprayed at Zhao Dong.

"Riding on a horse."

Zhao Dong cursed secretly.

"Congratulations Jordan, you won the third aerial duel." Hubie Brown laughed.

Back on the offensive end, Zhao Dong held the ball outside the three-point line on the left wing, and Jordan defended alone.

"Do you know how I practice the first step?" Zhao Dong said.

"No, I don't want to know at all."

Jordan wanted to know because Zhao Dong's first step was faster than him, but he would rather lose a million dollars than lose his mouth.

"squeak!"

At this moment, Zhao Dong exerted force on his feet, took a step forward, and broke through.

This step was too fast, and Jordan turned around instinctively, but the moment he turned around, Zhao Dong braked.

"not good!"

He jumped to zero in an instant, and his feet instinctively followed the brakes, but his upper body couldn't stop, and he lost his balance up and down.

"Oh yeah, Jordan was knocked down by the flying dragon!" The on-site commentator shouted excitedly.

Zhao Dong watched Jordan fall, and was not in a hurry to make a move. He gave Jordan a cold look, opened his mouth and smiled, and then took off calmly.

"asshole!"

After being humiliated continuously, Jordan on the floor swears directly.

"Shh!"

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then pierced through the net, splashing a white water splash, and there were cheers from all over the court.

"This is the second time Zhao Dong has knocked Jordan down, it's incredible!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

"Mr. Jordan, do I count this as an open three-pointer? It's a pity, but it has no soul." After succeeding, Zhao Dong blew up.

"Step aside!"

Jordan said angrily.

"Haha..." Zhao Dong laughed triumphantly.

Next, Zhao Dong stepped up his attack on the inside. His physical fitness was still sufficient, and he didn't play much in the second and third quarters.

Ewing scored a lot of points today. He estimated that Ewing's physical fitness must not be very good. It is time to suppress the Bulls' inside line through impact.

The measures he took were to play without the ball first, so as to avoid being double-teamed, to catch the ball below the free throw line and its dotted line, so as to avoid the restrictions of the 138th rule, and to use the tyrannical strength and tonnage to break through the defense Jordan, and then hit the paint.

This method is not bad. His current mobility is no worse than that of Jordan. With continuous reverse running and irregular running, there are many opportunities to drop Jordan.

With Zhao Dong's powerful impact, Ewing and Rodman, who had no ability to face it head-on, were in a panic.

However, Zhao Dong was once brought down under the basket by the two of them, and he fell hard.

With Zhao Dong's crazy impact, the Knicks' offensive efficiency rose rapidly.

Jordan is also trying his best to attack the Knicks inside to improve the offensive efficiency. With Zhao Dong defending him alone, he went to the basket several times, causing fouls by Daben and Fortson, but the overall offensive efficiency is still not as good as that of the Knicks. Zhao Dong.

It's just that Ewing continued to exert force on the offensive end, helping the Bulls to bite the score.

In the 10th minute of the final quarter, with 98 seconds left, at 99:93, the Knicks led by 6 points, and the Bulls called a timeout.
