Chapter 144 The Bulls' Targeted Defense

Phil Jackson found that his Bulls seem to be unable to arrange for the Magic lineup. They can lock Anfernee Hardaway through marking and double-teaming, but if they have to find a way to lock Darry If Al Armstrong, it is obviously impossible to do it, after all, their manpower is limited.And when the Magic offered such a strategy, the Bulls had no choice but to think of a way in another direction.

The Magic played very hard in the opening game, coupled with the recovery of the offensive end, they beat the Bulls 10:2 in the opening game, and the Bulls just hit a bottom line layup at the beginning of the game, and Jonny got it alone on the Magic side. 8 points, including two three-pointers.

Jonny hit three out of four shots, and every shot was a catch-and-shoot, which made Phil Jackson anxious. Phil Jackson, who had studied Jonny in detail, knew that if he could shoot with Jonny's touch Open, what kind of ending will it be? In the previous few games, the Bulls locked Anfernee Hardaway and did not allow Jonny to catch the ball and shoot, so the continuity of Jonny's touch became not very good. Easy to guard against.

But if Jonny can find opportunities to catch and shoot, Jonny's touch continuity will be greatly improved, which will inevitably pose a threat to the Bulls.

So, after Michael Jordan's shot bounced out of the frame and the rebound was picked off by Dennis Rodman, the Bulls decisively called a timeout.

"Michael, you are too relaxed on Johnny's defense, put some pressure on him! Understand? Pressure. In addition, you double-team Johnny Lee so that he has no room to shoot, understand?" Phil Jackson was also helpless He had no choice but to use this trick to directly lock Jonny, so that Jonny would not have room to shoot, and he would not even let Jonny catch the ball.

This is a tactic used by the Heat in the Eastern Conference semifinals, but it failed in the end, but Phil Jackson doesn't think the Bulls will fail with this tactic, because the Bulls have some of the best single-defense players in the league, and the Heat's perimeter Only a bunch of [-]-point shooters are different.

The Bulls came back on the court, their offensive clock was reset because they grabbed a rebound, so there was still a lot of time, Michael Jordan dribbled the ball and looked for a while, but the Magic really tried their best in this game, their defense It was done quite seamlessly. Michael Jordan searched around but couldn't find even a single vacancy.

Seeing this, Michael Jordan had to forcefully come. He punched Johnny with his back a few times, took a few steps inside the three-point line, and then turned around. It was a signature fadeaway jumper, but Jordan was so simple and direct. Of course, Johnny saw through the fadeaway jumper. The ball was completely interfered by Johnny. Of course he failed to score. The rebound was taken by Marcus Camby, but it took a lot of effort. He and Dennis Rodman stuck hard for a few seconds before finally getting stuck.

After the Magic got the rebound, they passed the half court slowly, and then continued to start tactical running, but at this moment, Johnny realized something was wrong, and Michael Jordan followed him every step of the way. This is normal, but what is abnormal is , Every time Johnny ran to a position, another Bulls player nearby would always approach him vaguely.

It wasn't until Johnny felt that he had thrown off Jordan and turned to receive the ball from Daryl Armstrong that Johnny discovered the real intention of the Bulls. Michael Jordan quickly followed, but Scott Pippen was even faster , this guy surrounded Johnny almost as soon as he got into position, and Johnny was double-teamed at that moment.

"Oh! Johnny is double-teamed, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, they surrounded Johnny to death!" Mike Tyreek shouted, and the reporters on the sidelines also quickly took pictures .

After a few clicks, the picture of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen surrounding Johnny holding the ball was captured. No one would have thought that this scene would later be regarded as a classic.In the words of Adrian Wojnarowski, an expert reporter on NBA aces in later generations: "At that moment, Michael Jordan and Scott Pippen surrounded Jonny Lee together. This is the most classic scene in the NBA. It is a legend. handover."

While the reporters were taking photos, the game was still going on. Johnny was completely surrounded by Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. There was no room for a shot. Even passing the ball was a bit difficult. Johnny Suddenly, I felt a little regretful, regretting not using my own attribute points to fill up the attribute of ball possession, otherwise at this time, Jonny could use full ball possession to break through the double-teaming of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen.

After struggling for a circle, Jonny suddenly jumped up, and then saw Anfernee Hardaway who was almost unguarded. He jumped out and Anfernee Hardaway rushed into the inside after receiving the ball, and then caused Dennis Rodman's foul and went to the free throw line.

Johnny watched Anfernee Hardaway hit the first free throw steadily, then glanced at Michael Jordan standing next to him, and Scottie Pippen standing around the free throw line, thoughtfully.

Anfernee Hardaway hit the second free throw, and the Magic expanded their lead. The gap of 12:2 and 10 points made Phil Jackson, who has always been known for his calm coaching style, unable to calm down. After all, the game had just begun. His team was 10 points behind. This 10 points is not a small gap, it is completely equivalent to 20 points in the last quarter.Although Phil Jackson didn't stand on the sidelines and yell like other coaches, when he stood on the sidelines, it meant that he was getting angry.

The game continued. In the offensive round of the Bulls, Michael Jordan was attacking with the ball, but it was still Johnny's one-on-one defense. Michael Jordan has now found a point. The Magic are very relieved of Johnny's one-on-one defense. The Magic will almost never double-team him. Yes, the game has been played for 3 minutes, and the Magic has not double-teamed him once.

However, after Michael Jordan observed it, coupled with the fact that Johnny stared at him very hard, Michael Jordan really couldn't find any opportunities. He rushed into the inside with the ball. Now, for the Bulls or Jordan The only way to score is to hit the basket.And when Phil Jackson was in a hurry, Michael Jordan also had to do his best to rush.

"Michael, rushed inside, completed a dunk on Marcus Camby's head, a very beautiful goal, Michael showed his personal ability on this ball, when the team fell into a scoring drought He stood up."

Mike Thirick said a lot, but the Magic's subsequent fast offense, Anfernee Hardaway quickly advanced and then passed the ball to Daryl Armstrong, Daryl Armstrong directly hit a three-pointer, this back and forth offense , the point difference not only did not shrink, it actually increased by one point.

The Magic led by 15:4, and at this time many commentators began to express their surprise and doubts: "The Magic played the Bulls 15:4 in the opening game. Did the Magic really win this game? Did the Magic win the game? The Bulls The state of affairs is worrying.”

The Bulls failed to find a way to defend Johnny, and Phil Jackson’s urgent idea was quickly cracked by the Magic. On the field, the game had gone on for 8 minutes, and the Magic continued to lead by 25 points with 14:11. On the field, the Magic After getting used to the Bulls' defense for a period of time, Jonny only slightly increased his running speed and shooting speed, and he broke the Bulls' defense. .

And Jonny's ultra-fast shooting also affected a certain amount of touch at the beginning, but after a long period of adjustment, he still adjusted it back.

"Jony Lee's shot, the ball scored, Michael Jordan's defense was long overdue, Jonny found his sight again, and the Magic led by 13 points. The Bulls are really dangerous in this game."

"The Bulls' offense, Michael Jordan's fadeaway jumper, missed again! Michael has missed 4 shots in a row. In this game, Johnny suppressed Michael Jordan on both offense and defense."

Michael Jordan watched the basketball bounce off the hoop again, and he shook his hand a little angrily. After 8 minutes of the game, he only hit a layup that slipped the bottom line in the opening game, and then a split dunk that rushed into the inside lane , The other few shots all missed. In this game, he was already 7 of 2 shots, and he was in a very bad state. A large part of the reason why the Bulls fell behind by 13 points was his poor state.

Michael Jordan's shot missed again, and the rebound was caught by Anfernee Hardaway, but the Bulls returned to defense very quickly. After the Magic reached the frontcourt, they had to slow down and continue to attack.

However, the Magic's attack on this position also failed to complete. It showed that Daryl Armstrong transferred the ball to Jonny, and then Jonny rushed a few steps, making a gesture to make a shot, and then made a concealed pass to Anfernee Hardaway, Scottie Pippen, who was just preparing to defend Johnny, hurried back to defend, but was lucky enough to block the ball passed by Anfernee Hardaway to Ronnie Secali, causing a steal, and Scottie Pippen was stunned. I got the basketball in between and started a fast break.

The one who reacted faster was Michael Jordan. He rushed to the backcourt frantically, then received a pass from Scottie Pippen, jumped up suddenly, jumped high, and poured the basketball into the basket with a bang. The frame, and even the entire arena was shaken by this dunk.

"Boom!" Following Michael Jordan's violent slam dunk, a slam dunk that vented his depression, the United Center gave out huge cheers. Although the Bulls were still 11 points behind, this shot seemed to be Some raised the bull's momentum.

Michael Jordan waved his fist excitedly, as if announcing to the Magic that the real Bull, the real Michael Jordan is coming back!

Johnny looked at Michael Jordan, who was a little overexcited, and didn't make fun of it. As a player who has been in the league for a season, Johnny has also learned a lot of trash talk. In this game, Michael Jordan, the trash A good talker, of course, did not stop talking trash, but now Johnny is not going to use trash talk to mock Jordan, he wants to use a three-pointer to extinguish the excited bull.

The Magic quickly delivered the ball, but at this time the Bulls were still immersed in the dunk by Michael Jordan just now, the defense had not yet fully settled down, and after receiving the ball, Johnny ran to the frontcourt quickly, under Michael Jordan's careless defense Next, he scored a three-pointer directly!
Swish!The United Center, which was still in the hustle and bustle just now, was silent, leaving only Jonny arrogantly raising his hands high and raising three fingers.
