Chapter 555 In this world, there is no one worthy of my calling
"Di!"
The referee's whistle blew, pointed at Fox, and blew a personal foul.
Jordan took the opportunity to play and replaced the backup guard with minimum salary veteran Terry Porter, while the minimum salary veteran Kersey also replaced Ellis.
When Jordan stood on the scoreboard, the Lakers were ready, Kobe was on the court, Richmond was on the court, and Mark Price stayed on the court.
The Knicks served the ball from the right line in the frontcourt. Jordan received the ball on the right wing. A forward change of direction got rid of Kobe, and made a pull-up jumper on the three-point line to make a three-pointer.
Jordan wanted to try his hand with a three-pointer. If it wasn't good, he could only continue to play the tactic to help O'Neal score.
"brush!"
The water splashed and the three-pointer hit.
The shot felt very good, like the silkiest skin of a woman, and his eyes lit up.
In addition to the intermission, he rested for at least 18 minutes, his physical strength has recovered, and his hand feels good. He decided to play a wave.
59:57, the Lakers attack.
Mark Price advanced with the ball and came to the frontcourt. Seeing Jordan defending Kobe, he handed the ball to Richmond, who responded outside the left-wing three-point line.
Richmond felt pretty good today. The opponent was veteran Corsey. He was confident in singles. After a false shot and a real shot, Akira backed Corsey and threw a three-pointer.
"boom!"
was a little shorter, and the rebound was taken by O'Neal.
Knicks offense.
Ward handed the ball to Jordan on the right wing after halftime. Jordan beat Kobe Bryant with his back, arched a step inside the three-point line, and suddenly turned around and made a pullback jumper.
"brush!"
The water splashed and hit two points from far.
"There is no way to defend such a ball." Zhang Lili shook his head.
Suqun said: "Now Jordan is 6-of-12 from the field, and the hit rate is back. The Lakers should be careful. Now that it is tied at 59, you can't be careless!"
Pharaoh came to the low post on the left wing and wanted the ball.
Jordan made two of two shots when he came up. He was very motivated to attack, and he also hit a three-pointer, so he had to take over the attack and couldn't sit and watch his teammates work outside.
Next, he started to shoot with all his strength.
played for more than four minutes. In the half quarter, the two sides tied at 67, and O'Neal was replaced.
Pharaoh made 4 of 6 shots and scored 8 points in the third half of the third quarter.
Jordan made 2 of 4 shots after making the first two shots. He played 4 of 6 shots in less than 5 minutes in the third quarter, all of which were outside jumpers, and scored 9 points.
Phil Jackson saw that Jordan had a blast, so he let O'Neal, who had no offense in the half quarter, take a rest.
Pharaoh gave up the close-range attack, and when O'Neal was not on the court, he went all out to attack the basket.
"boom!"
At the basket, he directly carried the Knicks backup center Buck Williams and backup power forward Cummings to receive the ball. It was an unreasonable dunk immediately. Cummings foul.
"Coach Phil Jackson's decision to replace O'Neal was wrong. Although Old K's close-range attack is strong, it will not add to the Knicks' life. But replacing O'Neal and Old K directly attacking the basket can really Killed the Knicks," Barkley said.
"boom!"
Pharaoh missed the penalty.
When the basketball rebounded, Tyron Hill hit the ball out. He rushed down to catch the ball and immediately burst into the air. Holding the ball in both hands, facing Old Buck and Cummings was a ferocious dunk.
"boom!"
When the basket exploded, Buck Williams and Cummings were all knocked over and slipped out of the bottom line.
"Oh!"
Madison Square Garden, in the exclamations, countless home fans looked away, and many people closed their eyes unconsciously.
"Old K is too cruel, can these two veterans still get up? I'm worried that their old bones will be broken by old K."
The bad guy Buckley wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh.
On the court at this time, the Knicks were already busy, because Barkley guessed right, Buck Williams and Cummings could not get up, and the Knicks were busy making substitutions.
Bill Wharton shook his head and said: "These two veterans need height but not height, and they need tonnage but not tonnage. Although they are All-Stars in the 1980s, one second and one third, but they are too old, they can't stand the old K's like this. Cruel tossed."
"O'Neal got up. Old K turned over two insider substitutes at one time. He couldn't remember it." Kenny Smith said.
After the substitution, the game continued. Just now, Williams and Cummings did not take off in the reasonable collision zone. The referee gave Cummings a blocking foul, and Pharaoh continued to make free throws.
"brush!"
This time, Pharaoh made 2 of 2 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 5 points within 17 seconds.
Knicks offense.
Jordan asked O'Neal to defend and rebound, and he wanted to take advantage of the explosive touch.
"brush!"
Under the tentative step, he punched Kobe Bryant in one step, and he really hit another two-pointer.
72:69, the Knicks trailed by 3 points and the Lakers attacked.
After O'Neal came up, Pharaoh didn't attack the basket any more, and still focused on close-range hooks.
After the third quarter, 81:81, the two teams tied again.
Su Qun wiped his sweat and said, "Old K made 7 of 10 shots and 2 of 4 free throws in the third quarter, scored 16 points in a single quarter, made 17 of 25 shots and 8 of 12 free throws in the first three quarters. 42 points.
O'Neal didn't attack much in the third quarter. He made 2 of 4 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, 6 points in a single quarter, 13 of 19 shots in the first three quarters, 4 of 7 free throws, and scored 30 points in three quarters. Jordan mainly made jumpers, which also affected O'Neal's offensive quality.
Jordan made a crazy shot in the third quarter, making 7 of 12 shots, including one 3-pointer, plus 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 17 points in a single quarter. In the first three quarters, he made 11 of 22 shots, including two three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws. Hit 29 points.
Guide Zhang, O’Neal and Jordan broke out in turns today. They scored 59 points together, and the efficiency was good. Old K’s performance today was already strong enough, but if it weren’t for the performance of his teammates, he might even fall behind! "
Zhang Lili was also very nervous and said: "In the crucial G5 battle, both sides are desperately fighting, I guess the fourth quarter will definitely be more intense.
In terms of Tiejun, although he made 25 shots in three quarters, I think he still has more power, because most of his shots today were hooks, and he rarely attacked the basket.
O'Neal played less in the third quarter. In the first half, he benefited from Jordan's sudden-point tactics, and there were few confrontations. His physical fitness should be better now. He must make more shots in the final quarter, and even focus on him.
Only Jordan, who made a crazy breakthrough in the first half, made a crazy shot in the third quarter, and consumed the most physical energy. He was really working hard. "
Su Qun said with emotion: "Jordan has to work hard. I think even if he wins this game, he will not be in good shape in the next game. Even if the Lakers lose match point, they still have a good chance of reaching the tiebreaker. ."
"Xiaosu, you must not crow mouth!" Zhang Lili shook his head with a wry smile.
Soon after, the last quarter ended.
Knicks offense.
After a full quarter, Jordan was already tired. His jumpers were all accompanied by breakthrough moves, which consumed a lot of physical energy. Although he still played at the end of the quarter, at the beginning, he couldn’t move, and only used his movement to attract others. defense.
O'Neal took over the offense, and the shark turned around and completed a dunk.
After succeeded, he glanced at Pharaoh, gnawed his teeth like a shark, completed his provocative action, and then immediately returned to defense.
Pharaoh ignored O'Neal's provocation. Like Jordan, he played a lot in the third quarter. He had to recover blood first and attack from the outside.
"brush!"
Richmond makes a pull-up jumper and hits the ball.
"Snapped!"
Looking back, Pharaoh slapped O'Neal's small toss to cap after the shark turned, Richmond grabbed the ball, and the Lakers attacked.
"boom!"
Kobe failed to single out Jordan and missed a jumper. Oakley got the rebound and the Knicks attacked.
played three minutes, 86:85, and the Lakers got the ball.
At this time, the Lakers called a timeout, mainly to buy a little time for Pharaoh to return to the blood again and prepare for the next contest.
The timeout ended, Pharaoh missed a ball, and the Knicks attacked.
O'Neal placed low on the left wing, and Pharaoh put a half-step top defense.
Oakley, who has always been pulled out on the offensive end, made a different move this time. Instead, he ran behind Pharaoh and stopped.
"Pick-and-roll!?"
Pharaoh felt that there was someone behind him and was startled. When he was about to react, O'Neal in front had already moved.
"Squeak!"
O'Neal suddenly turned around and slipped. Pharaoh was about to retreat, but was blocked by Oakley, and a giant beast swept past.
"boom!"
The big shark took a step and smashed the ball in his right hand.
"Oh, this offensive cover was well done, but the Tiejun didn't react." Zhang Lili said in surprise.
"The Lakers can also play like this." Su Qun said immediately.
On the field, O'Neal opened his mouth again, gnawed his teeth at Pharaoh, chewed a few times, and then stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, as if he was going to swallow Pharaoh alive.
Old Wang snorted: "Silly fish, do you think it's a shark after a few teeth? There is a one-on-one match against me."
"This is called tactics. As a primary school student, you don't understand." O'Neal sprayed back.
"What's so special!"
ridiculed him with his academic qualifications, and Lao Wang felt that he had to teach this little fish a lesson.
Came to the frontcourt of the Lakers. Pharaoh moved directly to the basket. In order to save his physical strength, O'Neal did not have a top defense and took a detour.
Pharaoh arrived at the reasonable collision zone, suddenly turned around, stuck O'Neal with his left elbow, faced the left front of the basket, and asked for the ball with his right hand.
Kobe, who was holding the ball, had been paying attention for a long time. After Pharaoh finished taking the position, he immediately pulled the ball horizontally and then passed the ball in. Jordan, who was in the opposite position, was not able to block his pass in time.
The pass was very timely, which made Oakley's double-team a beat slower. When Pharaoh received the ball, no one from the Knicks completed the double-team in advance.
Hearing the screeching sound of sneakers rubbing on the right wing behind him, Jordan, who was in the high position, also pounced. At this moment, the attack of Pharaoh, who had just received the ball, also began.
"Boom!"
Under a brutal back arch, O'Neal, who wanted to create a double-team opportunity for his teammates, just groaned, leaned back, and fell backwards.
"boom!"
The next moment, when the big shark hit the floor, Pharaoh hung above the basket.
Whether it was Jordan or Oakley, when he rushed to the basket, it was all over.
Seeing his brother crushing his opponent, Barkley roared with excitement: "This is a war between giant beasts! It turned out that Old K ate O'Neal, and he was using the cruelest and most violent way to destroy him in the low post. the only opponent."
Bill Wharton shook his head and said with emotion: "In the age of giants, there is destined to have only one protagonist, and the other will definitely become a supporting role."
Kenny Smith said immediately: "All along, the protagonist is the old K."
"This guy…"
Jordan looked up at Pharaoh above, a huge invisible pressure was pressing on his head, almost overwhelming him.
Old Wang let go of his hands, fell to the ground, looked down at O'Neal with extremely ferocious eyes, and roared sharply: "Little sardine, I'm fighting, and I never need anyone to help me. That's the difference between me and you."
"Hoohooho..."
O'Neal was breathing heavily. First, he was hit, and his chest was almost shattered. Second, he was angry.
Pharaoh turned around, the overbearing eyes swept the bottom line, and the media reporters who were frantically waving their shutters shouted: "There is no one in this world who is worthy of my attacking cover."
"click, click..."
The media reporters pressed their fingers faster, almost cramping, and still kept pressing.
Several Japanese reporters were so excited that they were almost in tears. They were from East Asia. Next time, old K Japan, he must let him leave more seeds, so that they can improve their genes.
Several Korean reporters were equally excited. Old K was from He*bei. That land should have belonged to Korea 5,000 years ago?
"Hahaha…"
In the CCTV live broadcast, Zhang Lili laughed when he saw Pharaoh crushing O'Neal, and Su Qun was too excited to speak.
Fengshen Street, the atmosphere is already burning, Chao*yang District Public Security Bureau temporarily decided to increase the police force to maintain order again.
88:87, the Lakers lead, the Knicks attack.
Jordan smashed the Lakers' two defenses with the ball, entered the paint area, and after attracting Pharaoh's defense, he suddenly scored the ball to O'Neal.
At this time, O'Neal's dunks were about to come out, and the cheers from Madison Square Garden had reached his lips, and they would burst out in the next moment.
But also at this moment, Pharaoh started the withdrawal method at the fastest speed, jumped backwards, and turned around in the air. pressed on the ball.
"Snapped!"
The side cover, when Pharaoh's big hand pressed on the ball, the cheers of countless Knicks fans were also stuck in the throat.
O'Neal, who had not had time to exert his force, was directly pressed back to the floor, with the ball still in his hand, he took two steps before he stopped.
"Di!"
The referee's whistle rang, and he pointed at O'Neal and made a walking gesture.
"yeah!"
Three thousand away fans instantly burst into great cheers.
Kobe Bryant and the other four players jumped to the basket cheering, and the Lakers' bench was also cheering, waving white towels constantly.
"drink!"
Old Wang roared and excitedly raised his fist at O'Neal.
He has done this kind of defense dozens of times, and he may not be able to succeed once, but just once, it can greatly damage the morale of the opponent.
Not to mention O'Neal, even Jordan was hit hard.
Just now on the defensive end, O'Neal was crushed by the old K. Now on the offensive end, the goals that must be scored under the dual-core cooperation are capped. The morale of the Knicks, especially O'Neal, is like being slashed directly, and his eyes are blank.
Phil Jackson asked the assistant to call a timeout in advance.
The Lakers attacked, Pharaoh moved directly to the basket, and O'Neal nervously followed to one side.
"Little sardine, are you going to be called a double team again this time?" Old Wang said while spraying.
"Boom!"
O'Neal angrily gave Pharaoh an elbow.
Pharaoh curled his lips indifferently, and patted the middle of his elbow, like a slap in the ashes, and then suddenly swung O'Neal onto his body.
O'Neal struggled and wanted to go around again. Pharaoh suddenly started the withdrawal method and moved a step to the left of the basket.
At this time, the ball was in the hands of Richmond on the left wing. There was no chance to pass the through ball in a hurry, and the ball could only be hoisted in.
"Bounce!"
Phil Jackson's roar sounded from the sidelines, like setting off an alarm.
O'Neal followed a step and put his head on Pharaoh's body.
"Bouble-team?"
Old Wang snorted disdainfully, his words stabbed into O'Neal's heart like a knife.
