Chapter 248

In the ABC live broadcast, Hubie Brown finally explained: "The Knicks complained before the game that they were harassed last night. Looking at their touch today, their shooting percentage is just in the early 3s. It should be true. If the Dragons are not too efficient tonight. Gao, if it wasn't for the strong rebounding, they should have lost in G[-]."

Cook read: "In this game, the Dragons scored 20 points in the first quarter and 23 points in the final quarter, including 11 points on 5-for-10 shooting in two quarters.

In the first and last two quarters, his scoring was basically the way to hit the basket.The Bulls are too old inside and can't stop it, allowing Feilong to hit a super high shooting percentage in these two quarters.

整体上,他一共27投20中,命中率达到了恐怖的74%,三分球1投1中,17罚12中,轰下53分15篮板7助攻3抢断5盖帽3失误5犯规的数据。他再一次打破了他的季后赛个人单场得分记录。”

Hubie Brown said with a smile: "Jordan also scored 44 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, with a shooting percentage of 53.9%. Although it is very high, there is a big gap between him and the Dragon. Today's victory belongs to the younger Dragon.

Feilong relied on his strong physical advantage and constantly hit the basket, so that he could play super efficient and win this victory when he didn't feel good. "

Zhao Dong was interviewed on the spot, but he was too tired, he only answered two questions and ended the interview.

An hour later, he showed up at the post-match press conference, already in much better shape.

"Flying Dragon, now that the Knicks are leading [-]-[-], how many more games do you think the team needs to win the Eastern Conference Finals?"

The team reporter Thomas asked.

"We didn't have a good rest last night. We still have two away games. I think this problem needs to be solved properly, otherwise we will have a very difficult time in the next two away games."

Zhao Dong's answer was not authentic to the question.

"Who do you think ordered those harassing girls?" Thomas asked immediately.

"Who else? Our opponent." Zhao Dong said coldly.

His physical fitness is not as good as in G1 tonight, but he played harder than in G1. He put in more energy on defense and rebounding, and this was the most important reason for him to win. Have a good rest, and your teammates are out of shape.

If the teammates are in normal condition and the shooting rate can reach more than 40%, tonight's game cannot be dragged to the end, and at least they can win by more than 15 points.

In fact, in addition to offense, in terms of defense and rebounding, his teammates performed very well tonight, and he does not complain about his teammates.

Zhao Dong's answer at the press conference was interpreted by the media the next day as an accusation against the Bulls.

The Bulls official responded immediately, claiming that the hotel had nothing to do with the Bulls.

This matter can only be left alone, but this night, Knicks finally got a good night's sleep.

That night, in the G4 game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Jazz lost again and tied the Lakers for two.

This was beyond the expectations of the media. The original speculation of the media was that the Jazz had a clear advantage.

In the end, the media believed that the Jazz consumed too much energy in the series against the Sonics.

The media dug up Zhao Dong's words and believed that the Jazz would be eliminated by the Lakers due to physical reasons in the next series.

Excited, O'Neal ran out to accept an interview with the media, saying: "The Jazz can't deal with the Knicks at all, and it's useless for them to reach the finals. The Flying Dragons let the postman go, otherwise the Jazz would not be able to pass the Sonics, so we still have to rely on the Lakers to have the hope of winning the Western Conference.”

Shark's words angered two groups of people at the same time, the Jazz and the Bulls.

"That boy O'Neill is a fool. I will score 50 points on him next time we meet." Jordan only said this to the media.

But it was not the postman Malone who came out of the Jazz. Malone refused the media interview, but John Stockton accepted the media interview.

Facing the media, he said angrily: "That idiot O'Neill is talking nonsense. Carl and I are not afraid of anyone. It was him who saw the dragon and his legs went weak. The dragon dunked him, and then he was beaten. He was scared out of his wits." gone."

"I didn't. I was hit by some people from the Knicks." O'Neill responded aggrievedly.

Under the deliberate instigation of the media, the Jazz and the Lakers fought across the air, and more and more players from the two teams stood up and accused each other.

On the 26th, the Eastern Conference Finals G4 battle.

This morning, a local media reported that Ewing had gone to the hospital for an examination.

"Ewing's injury relapsed, and a generation of super centers officially fell!"

"The bull is about to collapse!"

"Jordan is retiring!"

This news immediately triggered a stir in the media, and all kinds of news rushed out.

After receiving the news, the Knicks were very happy.

"[-] to [-] after this match, we will take out the Bulls at the United Center." Zhao Dong said firmly and authentically when facing the media before the game.

In the adaptive training in the afternoon, his teammates were in normal condition, and he was full of confidence. As long as he played again in G3, the team would have no problem beating the Bulls.

As for Ewing's question, he didn't care.

On the defensive end, he can defend against Ewing who can't jump. On the offensive end, Ewing dare not block his impact. He doesn't care about Ewing at all.

He firmly believes that with the strength of the Knicks, as long as he plays well, plays normally without any problems, he can win this series.

At eight o'clock, with only half an hour left before the game, the starting lineup was announced.

Knicks: Zhao Dong, Ben Wallace, Oakley, Alan Houston, John Starks.

Bulls: Ewing, Rodman, McGrady, Jordan, Kidd.

"Oh, Ewing is not injured and still starts?"

"The bull dumped us?"

"No, the Bulls are trying to dump the Knicks."

"Are the Knicks ready?"

After getting the list, the media began to speculate.

"Never mind their little tricks, with Ewing, we also won the Bulls two games, and we will also win this time."

In the locker room of the visiting team, after hearing the news, Zhao Dong stood up and began to mobilize.

In the locker room of the home team, Phil Jackson finished arranging tactics and began to ask the players to meditate with him.

Ewing's knees were tied with ice packs, and he did have a problem. Both left and right knees were swollen, and there was water in them. Some of them were removed, but the fundamental problem was not solved.

The reoccurrence of injuries made him very disappointed. He thought that if he stayed strong in the regular season, he would be able to explode in the playoffs and make Zhao Dong and the Knicks look good, but now?It's just that he didn't want to lose the Eastern Conference finals, so he insisted on playing with injuries.

The game started, Big Ben won the jump ball, and the Knicks attacked.

Zhao Dong held the ball on the outside of the left wing and broke through to a position below the dotted line of the free throw line, attracting double-teams from Rodman and Jordan.

Alan Houston caught the ball and made a layup. Ewing under the basket didn't jump very much. He jumped half a foot at most and slapped him down.

"Damn it, sprained my ankle!" Zhao Dong scolded.

The referee gave Ewing a thug foul, and Alan Houston couldn't play anymore and was helped off the court.

Old Nelson replaced Hu Weidong, and the game started.

Hu Weidong made a free throw instead of Houston, made two free throws, and the Bulls attacked.

But this foul was a signal. In the subsequent game, Ewing made a big move against the Knicks players who entered the basket. Even Oakley was turned over by an elbow.

As for Zhao Dong, he rushed in three times, hit him twice, and was knocked down by Ewing once.

As a super center, the super giant of the league, the whistle is a bit soft on him. In the 5th minute of the first quarter, the referee's whistle did not blow on him for the second time.

Everyone knew that Ewing was desperately making a last-ditch effort.

But the Bulls didn't take advantage of it. In terms of iron blood and defense, the Knicks are one of the best teams in the league.

The Bulls showed a rough defense, and the Knicks immediately strengthened their defense, using almost foul actions, so that the Bulls could not break through from outside.

Even Jordan was brought down from the air twice by Zhao Dong and Oakley, and the fall was terrible.

In the 6th minute, Hu Weidong cut to the basket and collided with Ewing who returned to the basket, and the two fell to the basket together.

"Oh, it's not good, Hu Weidong couldn't get up because he was clutching his knees." Zhang Lili lost his voice.

"How about it?"

Zhao Dong hurried over.

He just saw that when Hu Weidong fell to the ground, his left knee hit the floor.

"I am afraid……"

Hu Weidong's face wrinkled from the pain, and he couldn't speak fluently.

"Horse's!"

Zhao Dong gave Ewing a hard look.

Just now Ewing obviously lost his defensive position, but forcibly ran into Hu Weidong when he returned to the defense. This f*ck is aimed at people.

He hit the basket several times just now, and actually wanted to get Ewing down, but Ewing was too cunning, he either dodged to the side, or withdrew from the basket. He didn't find a chance, and he himself was knocked over once.

Now without Hu Weidong and Alan Houston, the back line can only be played by Charlie Ward and Chris Childs, two guys who lack offensive ability. With John Starks, the nerve knife, the game will be smooth. It's not easy to fight.

Next, the old Nelson replaced Charlie Ward. Anyway, there was no offense, so he strengthened the defense on the back line.

For the Bulls, Ewing was replaced first, and Bill Wennington was replaced on the bench.

This guy came on the court with a mission on his back. Like Ewing, he used rough movements to attack the Knicks' breakthrough offense from the outside.

Except for Zhao Dong who continued to attack the rim and injured two guards in a row under the bull's rough defense, the rest of the Knicks had stopped attacking the paint.

The offensive ability itself is not much, and he is still shooting outside, so the efficiency can be seen.

At the end of the first quarter, at 23:21, the Knicks led by only two points.

The reason why they took the lead was Zhao Dong's breakthrough, which did a lot of damage to the Knicks.

他单节打满,6投5中,8罚7中,拿到17分5篮板1助攻1抢断2盖帽1失误1犯规的数据。

With a strong breakthrough ability, the Bulls lost five fouls on the inside in a single quarter.

In the second quarter, the old Nelson adjusted the lineup and tactics, played Chris Childs, replaced Da Ben, let Zhao Dong serve as the center forward, and played the wide-open tactics and fast break.

This is an absolutely small lineup, the slowest is Oakley, and the other four, including Zhao Dong, are all at the guard level.

Opening up the offensive points can reduce the obstacles for Zhao Dong to break through, and the fast break can disrupt the opponent's rhythm and prevent the opponent's defense line from being established in time.

The players came on the field, and Zhang Lili analyzed at this time: "From the perspective of this lineup, the Knicks gave up Danny Fortson, which means that the team wasted a season on him, and Billups was also abandoned by the old Nelson. , and replaced Ben Wallace, the current lineup is basically the lineup of last season, and there is still a lack of Ewing and Alan Houston, very difficult!"

Sun Zhenping said: "Zhao Dong is playing center. The Knicks have no one to use the third position. They have two point guards and one shooting guard. They are all small."

Bulls attack.

Jordan didn't dare to rush in at this time. In the early days and even at his peak, he played mainly on breakthroughs. After his comeback, he mainly focused on mid-range shots. Today, in such a fierce situation inside, he was also worried about getting injured, so Reduced penetration and increased mid-range jumpers.

Oakley sits at the basket, facing Bill Wennington.

Zhao Dong's position was a little outside, and he didn't care much about Rodman.

On the right wing, Jordan and Kerr suddenly played a pick-and-roll tactic when they were running, the former cut inside and the latter cut outside.

John Starks and Childs switched defenses, and Jordan misplaced Childs.

When the pick-and-roll tactic happened, Zhao Dong immediately moved closer to the right wing. After seeing his teammates switch defenses, he immediately accelerated his movement.

At this time, he had been paying attention to the top of the arc, Kidd passed the ball, and he immediately accelerated and rushed towards Jordan.

"what?"

When Jordan was about to catch the ball with one hand in his left hand, he suddenly saw a big hand cut into the pass and catch line, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Dong intercepted the ball with one palm, swept past Jordan in front of him, circled an arc, rushed out of the three-point line, and started to go down quickly.

Kobe moved quickly in front, staring at Zhao Dong who was rushing over, his heart was trembling due to the powerful momentum, but he still stood there, mentally prepared to be hit and fly.

But at this moment, Zhao Dong suddenly changed direction slightly and rushed past him. He pulled instinctively, and then was brought down by a huge force.

"Oh, the flying dragon intercepted the ball, Cole blocked... changed direction, Cole was turned over, and the whistle was not blown, the flying dragon crossed the center line, Michael caught up..."

The on-site commentator exclaimed and began to explain loudly.

Thanks to Cole's blocking, Zhao Dong's advance was slowed down, and Jordan caught up.

But at this time, both Charles and Charlie Ward rushed in front of Zhao Dong and Jordan. Zhao Dong immediately passed to Ward who was in the middle. Ward took the ball and rushed to the basket. Jordan had to chase Ward.

Ward went to the basket, Jordan was right behind him, he didn't push hard, knowing that Zhao Dong must be behind him, he slowed down and pulled to the left, flicked the ball with one hand with his left hand, and passed it to Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong rushed in from the left elbow, took a step forward after receiving the ball, and flew up four meters away from the basket.

At the basket, Jordan saw Zhao Dong's crazy charge, so he had to retreat quickly and get out of the basket.

"boom!"

The extremely violent sound of exploding baskets silenced the United Center arena, followed by the wild cheers of [-] away fans.

On the ABC live broadcast, Cook roared excitedly: "The one-armed tomahawk dunk after the long-distance gliding, the perfect fusion and display of gorgeousness and violence, this is the charm of the New York Dragon, he can make countless fans excited."

"Feilong, that's it, come again a few times and overthrow them!" Oakley rushed to Zhao Dong's side and shouted excitedly.

"Tonight, we're going to slaughter a cow!" Zhao Dong yelled at his teammates.

"Cow slaughter! Butcher..."

In the United Center arena, the voice of the Knicks sounded.

"Shh!"

The Bulls fans reacted and booed angrily.

Bulls attack.

Because Zhao Dong stood forward, a little below the free throw line, the Bulls' backup center Bill Wennington saw an opportunity, and immediately entered the basket from the low post on the left wing, stuck Oakley behind him and asked for the ball at the top of the arc.

Wennington is 211 cm tall and weighs 115 bulls. Playing Oakley is an absolute dislocation advantage. Kidd saw him enter the basket and immediately lobbed the ball in.

Wennington received the ball, and Zhao Dong had returned to the defense. He wanted to jump up and dunk, but was pulled by Oakley behind him. He didn't jump up, so he had to quickly throw the ball to the basket.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Dongfei stood up, pressed the ball directly on the backboard with one palm, and then grabbed it.

"Beautiful, Zhao Dong sent a peg board hat!" Sun Zhenping shouted excitedly.

"Is Kidd dizzy? Zhao Dong and Oakley are two top defenders guarding the paint and dare to pass the ball to a role player?" Zhang Reasonable laughed.

Knicks frontcourt, Charles holds the ball.

Pulling all the way, Oakley pulled Rodman to the right wing, and Zhao Dong held the ball outside the three-point line on the left wing, leaving no one in the low post.

But in this way, the Bulls were very difficult to defend and could only switch defenses. Jordan came to defend Zhao Dong and asked backup center Bill Wennington to switch to John Starks on the three-point line.

It was an absolute dislocation, as John Starks easily dropped Wennington and quickly cut inside to the basket.

Then Zhao Dong passed the ball, Starks caught the ball for a layup and easily scored a goal.

The Bulls attacked and called a timeout.

"Small lineup, on the offensive end, Dragons and Oakley belong to the outside line. After they are all pulled apart, the Bulls are very passive and have no way to defend." Cook yelled.

Hubie Brown immediately analyzed: "The Bulls must switch to a smaller lineup, otherwise they can only play a certain distance. They can't defend against penetration, and they are betting on the Knicks' touch."

After the timeout ended, the Bulls really replaced Bill Wennington with Tracy McGrady. They also played a small lineup, Rodman was an insider, and the other four were all outsiders.

The Bulls served in the frontcourt, Rodman had no offensive ability, Oakley defended the basket, and Zhao Dong played against Jordan.

Jordan is better at attacking from the right wing, leading Zhao Dong to move constantly on the right wing.

At this time, Kidd held the ball and broke through the paint from the top of the arc, changing directions twice in a row.

Oakley took a step up to defend, and Kidd pulled to the right, attracting Oakley to defend, and at the same time, his dribbling hand shook back, and under a back pass, he flew to the left wing.

"Be careful of cutting back!" Zhang Lili yelled anxiously when he saw it.

"Damn!"

Oakley quickly looked to the left, and saw that McGrady was behind him, and he flew up after receiving the ball, and he had no time to defend.

At this moment, Zhao Dong returned to the defense from the right wing, flew up, and pressed the basketball that McGrady smashed through the basket.
