Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

The big score has become 3:2. If the Bulls win on the road, it will inspire the strongest confidence. Returning to home in the seventh game, it is very likely to win again and reach the finals.

If the series is won, Michael Jordan's sixth championship ring will be unstoppable and directly canonized. Last season, he got rid of Byron Russell and made a classic mid-range shot, which became a legend.

He also mobilized the whole team before the game.

"Guys, this is the last game, we have to win. If we can't win this game, our career will be over." Jordan was passionate and roared at his teammates, "We have to fight for our dreams. And work hard.”

Jordan's passion, Jordan's desire to win, are in sharp contrast to the slogan "It only takes one championship" on the wall.

Luke Longley, Kukoc and others listened to Jordan's lectures and looked at the slogans on the field. Are they pursuing a better contract? They already have a few championships under their belt and it's time to think about themselves.

"Damn it, don't believe the bullshit on the wall. If we don't have a championship, how can we be remembered in history?"

Seeing his teammates looking at the slogans on the wall, Jordan felt very unhappy and scolded him directly, "Now, don't think about anything. Just do what you have to do, and I will take care of the rest."

He looked at the slogan on the wall dejectedly and cursed, "Gan, this useless team just has no ambition."

In the other locker room, there was no such sign at all. And only before the game against the Bulls, the Nets posted this slogan to affect the mentality of the Bulls players.

Carter was also mobilizing before the game, "Guys, don't be afraid of the Bulls, we are still ahead. The team management has said that even if the players are injured after fighting hard, the team will give them better contracts."

Let your teammates put down their psychological baggage. Many players in the team are in contract years. Without the commitment given by the team, they will inevitably make mistakes.

"This game is the last game of this series. If we lose at home, do you think we can still dominate the Bulls' home court? Jordan will not give us a chance. Pippen, Kukoc, Luke Longley, Ron Harper won't give us a chance either."

"Fight, I'm going to kill the entire Bulls team." Jason Williams' whole body was boiling. He had already defeated Rodman and had to defeat more people before he could get a multi-million contract.

This season is the best opportunity. He ranks second in rebounding and averages a double-double per game, which is definitely a hit. Similarly, he hopes that his contract will be larger than that of Rashid and others, which is in line with his positioning as the core of the team's interior.

McDaniel was equally passionate, "I'm going to fight to the last drop of my blood."

"No, dying on the field is terrible." Robert Pike still had the heart to joke, he was ready. He doesn't worry about the Bulls' bench, he just needs to hold the ball and rush forward.

Game start.

Rasheed bats the ball to Cassel. Cassell dribbled the ball across half court and then passed it to Rasheed in the high post.

Luke Longley followed immediately, denying him an opportunity to pass the ball easily. Pippen was nearby, ready to steal the ball. Rashid saw the right moment and gave it to Kendall.

Kendall Gill caught the ball on the run, cleared half his body, and immediately took the shot. It was a little short and didn't go in.

Unexpectedly, Carter had appeared. He knew Kendall Gill's shooting habit. He grabbed the rebound in the air and pushed the ball into the net without landing.

Jordan pursed his lips, "Vince, this guy, has a strong desire to fight. It will be difficult to deal with him today."

He asked for the ball, ready to destroy Carter's confidence. Unexpectedly, it was Kendall Gill who was marking Jordan today.

"Huh? Vince doesn't dare to guard against me?"

"I'm next to you, Michael, you are too strong, I have to help defend you." Carter responded quickly. Don't let Jordan get crazy at this time. If Jordan goes berserk at the beginning of the game, this game will be difficult to play.

"Gan..." Jordan had already reacted and cut inside.

Throughout the series, Carter confounded Jordan. Even though there is a gap in strength, Carter has always used Jordan's lover's respect for his small weakness to quietly suppress Jordan's performance.

Kendall was no match and watched Jordan score.

Cassel was in control again, slowly going through the half, he had good rhythm and had experience in the finals. This kind of experience will be very beneficial to him, and he is the most experienced player on the Nets court.

"Don't be anxious, take your time." Cassell directed the team to run.

Calipari also stood nervously on the sidelines, in stark contrast to Phil Jackson's calm look. Phil Jackson has 5 championships, and Calipari is actually just a new recruit in the NBA, who arrived on the team slightly earlier than Carter.

Still giving it to the inside, Jason Williams carried Luke Longley and played a post-up single, with no chance. After receiving the ball, Carter immediately passed the ball. Cassel received the ball again and went to the bottom corner.

Ron Harper followed very closely and didn't give him a chance. Carter cruised out wide and missed the ball, allowing Kendall Gill to pick up the ball.

Once again, he found a little space and shot hard, but this time he got it.

Pippen was a little depressed because he dared to hit his defensive point in the opening game. Don’t the Nets want to mess around?

Looking back, Pippen provided support from the outside, and his great role was to be the team's metronome, giving it to the inside. Kukoc leaned on Rashid to shoot, but missed this time.

Rashid made a lot of small moves, interfering with Kukoc's shooting. Jason Williams grabbed the rebound and sent it forward.

The third line is coming soon!

The Bulls returned to defense very quickly and followed up very closely. Kendall passed the ball to Cassel. Cassel saw that the Bulls players had entered the three-point line and did not pass it rashly to Carter inside. Instead, he made a shooting posture from outside the three-point line.

Seeing that he was about to shoot, Ron Harper immediately pounced on him. Unexpectedly, Carter used Kendall's screen to sneak to the bottom corner. When the ball arrives, Cassel is ready to pass the ball.

"Whoosh!"

Jordan took action immediately after catching the ball, and Jordan didn't have time to react. Watching the basketball hit the net, I felt even more depressed.

Phil Jackson frowned. The Nets players are indeed more energetic than the Bulls. The biggest problem for the Bulls players is their physical fitness. They are all veterans. Their bodies are aging and their recovery is definitely not as good as that of young people.

Rasheed and Jason Williams watched Carter hit a three-pointer in their own half, and then quickly returned to the basket to defend.

"I knew Carter would score, so it wasn't even past halftime." Jason Williams comforted himself. His speed was not his strong point, and he was not as good as Rasheed. "The speed just now was really fast."

In the VIP seats, John Nash and Joe Taub sat together, worried. The team performed so well, and their tasks in the offseason are much heavier. Carter may break out of the contract, and he will only be able to receive an annual salary of tens of millions, and Jason Williams also demands an annual salary of tens of millions, which will be difficult for the team to support. There are also contract extensions for Rasheed and Robert Pike. If the contract is too small, they may leave.

"As long as they beat the Bulls, the team management is willing to pay the luxury tax." Joe Taub thought for a while and gave John Nash reassurance.
