Chapter 74
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Bulls and Trail Blazers were both half-main + half-substitute lineups.

The Trail Blazers have Clifford and Malone on their side, still focusing on the one-star tactics.

Although without Sabonis, there will be problems of inadequate support, but it is not an unsolvable problem for Malone.

Sabonis has limited physical strength and should be used at more critical times.

For the Bulls, Jordan and Pippen continued to lead the team.

What is the end of letting Malone play in the second team? The three quarters of the preseason game were broken, which has proved everything.

Tired is a little tired, but there is no way but to go on.

The Blazers attack.

Malone hit the low post first.

Legler, Hubert, Clifford and others opened up at the three-point line.

Jordan and Pippen dare not let people go completely.

But he didn't dare to really give up the space to Malone.

If the inside space is completely given over to the little giant, it will not be a toothpick to stir the big tank, but the bull will be completely transformed into the shape of Malone!
Both Jordan and Pippen took two steps back, maintaining a position in which to defend the shot and interfere with the pass.

The defensive awareness and experience of the two of them are too strong, and their positions are just right.

Although it was expected, the Blazers really couldn't find a chance after playing like this, so they had to let Malone pull out from the low post.

Malone reached the free throw line, and Jordan + Pippen couldn't intercept the pass.

Malone received a pass from Legler and played Wennington with a back single.

Chiseling back, Wennington was unmoved.

But this confrontation was enough for Malone to turn over!

Malone turned over and shot a straight-arm jumper!

Wennington froze for a moment when Malone's elbow confronted him, but when he realized it, he was separated by Malone's knee, and there was no way to interfere.

His tonnage is enough, but his size is still a lot worse. There is no way to interfere with Malone's back-up turnaround jumper.

Ma Long is too big and too big to bear it, so it is very difficult.

duang~
The basketball hit the rim and went up and down twice before falling into the net bag.

29:33.

"Just relying on the bonus of the action package is still a bit unsafe. The main reason is that the pirated Golden Rooster's independent shooting skills are not enough, and the manual work is not hard enough. Otherwise, it should be very stable in this zero-interference state."

"After all, the new technology can be used now because it is a cheating relationship, and it is normal to practice for a season or two before it is fully mature."

Ma Long flicked his wrist, looked at Wennington's sluggish appearance, and changed his mind: "Although I am not good at breaking through, I can try to beat Wennington!"

Normally, players, especially core players, cannot change their style of play.

Playing is very about tactical rhythm.

As the core, if you suddenly change your style, it will easily affect the rhythm with your teammates and the tacit understanding of the team.

However, the Trail Blazers' second team is very special when they play one star and four shots. Malone has a very high degree of tactical freedom.

Anyway, the inside line was vacated for him.

He can build such a large space whatever he wants, and it will not affect the four shooters on the periphery.

In the transition between offense and defense, Kukoc got the rebound and was about to send a long pass to start a fast break, but was interrupted by Clifford.

The long passer was disturbed, and the fast break naturally couldn't be initiated, and the ball was passed to Pippen's position.

Facing Aaron McGee's defense, Pippen saw many flaws at a glance and chose to play directly.

Pippen took a tentative step and then dribbled behind his back, successfully passing Aaron McGee in one step!
After successfully breaking into the paint, Pippen, who was supposed to pass the ball, suddenly wanted to hit one in the face of Malone's supplementary defense!
Although it is not as good as Michael, it is still recognized as a super giant in the small forward position!
Why do the newspapers say Malone vs Jordan?Why don't you take Pippen seriously?
Pippen was jealous and wanted to avoid Ma Longxiu.

He has succeeded and failed.

Pippen jumped up and pulled the bar, and the ball was kept to his side and successfully avoided Malone's block.

But he misjudged Malone's width.

Although he escaped the block, Pippen didn't have much room to attack because of Malone's wide body.

Pippen forced a small throw, and the basketball hit the backboard hard and bounced off.

Before Pippen was upset, Jordan sneaked in at some point and grabbed an offensive rebound!
As soon as Ma Long landed, seeing Jordan about to dunk, he fouled decisively and directly!
beep!
The referee blows his whistle.

Jordan, who was so overwhelmed by Malone that he couldn't get up, slapped the basketball hard, then raised his head and glared at Malone.

Although angry, Gang Leader Qiao admired Ma Long's decisiveness in his heart.

As long as Malone hesitated just now, he could take off and complete the attack.

This consciousness is much stronger than the last fight.

The ball went up too fast!
"It feels like he's growing faster than Olajuwon."

"The talent is really visible to the naked eye!"

Jordan thought.

The number of fouls has accumulated to the threshold.

Jordan came to the free throw line and hit two free throws with ease.

31:33.

The Blazers attack.

Malone once again pulled to the free throw line to catch the ball with his back.

Wennington stuck tighter this time.

But when he was guarding against Malone's turnaround jumper, Malone suddenly passed the ball to Clifford, and then quickly turned around and rushed to the inside.

The change was so great that the Bulls' defense had no time to intercept, and only Wennington followed up instinctively.

Clifford reacted very quickly and immediately passed it to Malone.

The height is too high, and Jordan and Pippen can't intercept it.

Malone catches the ball and jumps at the front of the paint area. Through Wennington, who is trying his best to defend, he stretches out his arms and dunks the basketball in almost a 'flip' posture!

Malone dunks Wennington!
31 is better than 35!

Amidst the cheers erupting from the fans at the scene, Ma Long pulled the basket and landed, and he didn't even bother to make a quick return to defense even in celebration.

Wennington sensed that Malone didn't treat him as a human being.

He went into extreme rage!

When the Bulls were attacking, they took the initiative to cooperate with Pippen and wanted to make a cut inside, and Malone skillfully gave him a big cap.
Fortunately, Pippen also felt that Wennington was unreliable, so he lay in ambush beside him, seized the opportunity to point the basketball in, and the second attack was completed.

33:35.

Falling into positional warfare again, this time the Bulls were prepared.

However, Malone didn't cut in again, and after a pick-and-roll with Legler, he missed a straight-arm jumper on the right side of the free throw line.

Clifford failed to rush, but hindered the Bulls' fast break.

Pippen advanced to the frontcourt, observed the ball and passed the ball to Kukoc, who was raised to the top arc, and then also cut towards the inside, trying to contain the defense and give Jordan a chance.

But the Trail Blazers were unmoved, just staring at Jordan.

At most, Ma Long stood in front of him with open arms.

After learning the lesson just now, Pippen realized that even without Sabonis and only Malone protecting the rim, the strength surpassed most NBA teams.

He made a post-up fake from the waist and passed it to Jordan.

The Trail Blazers immediately double-teamed.

Jordan didn't give the Trail Blazers a chance, he caught the ball and knocked away Clifford, who had hurriedly changed defenses, turned over and made a steady jumper with a fadeaway.

35 is better than 35!

Tied by the Bulls!
But it didn't take long for the fans to worry. When the Trail Blazers were attacking, Malone stood up.

Malone still holds the ball with his back in the high position.

He swayed Wennington, and when Wennington's center of gravity changed, Ma Long quickly cut into the front of the paint with extremely flexible steps!

Facing Pippen who was attacking from the flank, Malone turned around and avoided Pi Erye, and forced the ball in against Wennington's pulling action behind him!

The referee blew his whistle for a foul on Wennington.

Malone easily hit a free throw at the free throw line, hit a 2+1, and pulled the lead back to 3 points.

This 3-point lead was maintained until the end of the first half.
