NBA: Miracle Workers
Chapter 108 "4 Guarantees 1"
Chapter 108 "Four Guarantees and One" (ten thousand word chapter)
On May 1998, 5, at the Charlotte Stadium, the Hornets fans present could only watch the atmosphere group of the Knicks jumping and jumping on the sidelines, shouting happily.
"Shhh!!"
Boos and shouts resounded throughout the arena, and the Hornets fans on the scene began to boo incompetently, and by the way, they also sent the boos to the home team. They didn't win a game, and it was really embarrassing!
At 100:84, the Hornets' offense was cut off in the second quarter. After the Knicks opened up the point difference, they didn't give their opponents any chance and won the game cleanly.
With a big score of 4:0, the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Knicks swept their opponents and reached the Eastern Conference Finals for two consecutive years!
In the NBC commentary on the spot, Bob Costas shook his head with a smile, and praised the performance of the Hornets:
"Glenn Rice gave everything for this game, played 48 minutes, made 21 of 13, and scored a game-high 30 points!"
"Mason also performed well, scoring 13 of 7 and contributing 16 points. The Hornets lost on rebounds. They gave the Knicks too many second-attack opportunities."
Coach Doug Collins, who broke up peacefully with the Pistons this season, was also on the commentary table, glanced at the technical statistics, and said with a smile:
"Patrick Ewing's offensive state has declined, but this may be a good thing for the Knicks!"
"I respect Ewing a lot, but he is 36 years old, and Lee is the core of the current team."
"Scorer and playmaker can switch seamlessly. In my opinion, Lee is the answer at the No. 1 position in the future."
"Only those who have played against him will truly understand his talent. His steady style of play is the key to the Knicks reaching the Eastern Conference Finals for two consecutive years."
出场39分钟,14中6,三分线外5中2,罚球6中6,20分3篮板14助攻2抢断3失误,今晚李佑再次砍下两双数据。
Jim Gray, another commentator in the commentary booth, was looking at Li You's technical statistics. Hearing such comments, he immediately asked with a smile:
"Solid play? We're talking about Lee! The New York media is calling him the next Magic Johnson."
"You can look at Li's turnover rate, the data truly reflects his playing style!"
"."
The three people in the commentary turned the topic unknowingly, but no one cared about it at this time. The Knicks became the first team to reach the conference finals this season!
Larry Johnson hugged everyone at this time, and felt enjoyable after hugging, and had to encourage the Hornets players a few words.
Li You didn't have such bad intentions. He was about to leave the field when he noticed a kid in the front row wearing the No. 1 Knicks away jersey waving to him, so he stopped.
He casually signed an autograph for this rebellious little guy. The arena was still very noisy, and the kid in front of him shouted excitedly:
"Cool! I want to play like you, I love the Knicks!"
After the two fist bumped, the rebellious kid happily hugged his mother who was wearing the Hornets No. 30 jersey beside him and yelled.
On the other side, Dell Curry, who basically played soy sauce in the series, turned black when he saw such a scene:
"There is a traitor in our family"
Back in the locker room, Li You saw that Jeff Van Gundy had already burst into laughter and reached the division finals. The bald young coach was extremely satisfied.
"We played a perfect performance! The Eastern Conference finals will not be the end, our goal is only the championship!"
"After returning to New York, give yourself a vacation, read less newspapers, adjust your state, and the next thing we have to do is to defend the home court."
Jeff Van Gundy began to send chicken soup for the soul, and the bald young marshal continued to draw cakes, and milked everyone full of vitality
After reaching the Eastern Conference finals, Ewing, who was passively turned into a tool man, was also in a good mood.
Several veterans know in their hearts that this year may be the best time for them to win the championship. As they grow older, their physical condition will inevitably decline.
Oakley is getting better and better after the return of the gorilla, and the old guy is also a little excited at this time:
"Our chance has come, no matter who the opponent is, the state will not be better than us!"
The atmosphere group immediately echoed, and soon everyone discussed the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals.
In another group of G4 games, the Bulls almost suppressed the Pacers.
But as Reggie Miller pushed away Michael Jordan at the last moment and hit a three-pointer from the right wing outside the three-point line, the Pacers finally succeeded in killing the Bulls.
At 94:96, two consecutive home games were protected, and then the two sides will have a battle of Tianwangshan.
Alan Houston is looking at the schedule and casually sending out blessings:
"I hope they can reach the tiebreaker 7, so that we can get a big physical advantage."
The Bulls and the Pacers were at loggerheads, and the situation was as he expected. Li You rubbed his chin, and said cheerfully at this time:
"The old guy should be tired too, this is indeed our perfect opportunity!"
"."
On May 5, the NBA announced the best rookie lineup for the 12-97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Tim Duncan, Zajunas Igleskas, Blevin Knight, Ron Mosser, Keith Van Horn;
The five members of the second team are:
Derek Anderson, Cedric Henderson, Bobby Jackson, Maurice Taylor, Tim Thomas.
Compared with the rookies of the previous class, except for Duncan and Van Horn, the members of the All-Rookie Team this year are a bit mediocre.
Tim Duncan was too late to be happy. In the Western Conference semifinals that night, 77:87, the Spurs lost again.
The big score in the series came to 4:1. In the end, the Jazz gentleman swept the Spurs and reached the Western Conference Finals again.
Another Western Conference semifinal, 110:95, relying on O'Neal's outstanding performance, the Lakers defeated the Sonics away, with a big score of 4:1, and entered the Western Conference Finals!
鲨鱼今晚发挥出色17中12,罚球12中7,七成命中率砍下31分9篮板4助攻8盖帽5失误的数据。
So far, the two teams in the Western Conference Finals have been officially announced:
Lakers VS Jazz.
The media in Los Angeles also followed the climax at this time, and fell into a state of self-indulgence. The Jazz's old man basketball can't stop the in-form O'Neal!
New York fans did not pay attention to these two teams, and everyone wanted to see the Bulls eliminated by the Pacers.
On May 5, the NBA announced the best defensive lineup for the 13-97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Gary Payton, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Karl Malone, Dikambe Mutombo;
The five members of the second team are:
Mookie Blaylock, Eddie Jones, Charles Oakley, David Robinson, Tim Duncan.
After seeing this list, the New York media felt comfortable. The All-Star Game felt that they were put on small shoes and selected to the best defensive team, which is considered to have regained face.
After the video class in the morning, everyone in the Knicks also congratulated Oakley, who was selected to the All-Defensive Team for the second time in his career, and the old guy was very happy.
"Come and relax at night, I'm in for a treat, it's been a perfect season!"
Oakley grinned and threw money directly, and the atmosphere group cheered, and it was time for the favorite eating and drinking session again.
Compared with the two teams still preparing for the Tianwangshan battle, the Knicks got a lot of rest time.
Li You still doesn't know whether Oakley has reached an extension with the Knicks, but if he enters the best defensive team, maybe the old guy has a chance to stay on the team.
Ewing and Starks also smiled and sent blessings. Larry Johnson on the side seemed to think of the follow-up best lineup, and said sourly in his heart:
"I feel like the media is ignoring me!"
As the team with the number one record in the regular season, the Knicks have won some honors, which is a matter of course, but the situation of "Auntie" is a bit embarrassing.
Neither the defensive core of the team nor the second scorer, Li You can only comfort "Auntie" at this time, and draw a cake by the way:
"As long as you win the championship, you will get a lot of attention. At least, the New York media will not forget you."
Alan Houston is not sour. Although he was not selected as an All-Star this year, there is a high probability that he will enter the best team.
Jeff Van Gundy was completely relieved to see the harmonious atmosphere in the team, but Thibodeau on the side suddenly reminded:
"We still have to let Pat find his status. Whether Houston is playing against Miller or Midu, it will consume a lot of energy on the defensive end."
Everyone in the coaching staff also discussed in a low voice. Jeff Van Gundy sighed secretly when he thought of the gorilla's shooting touch:
"The right to digest the ball has also become a problem"
Since only the Pacers and Bulls are left in the semifinals, the Tianwangshan battle in G5 has attracted a lot of attention.
It's just that the content of the game that night disappointed the fans.
At 87:106, the Bulls returned to the home court and led their opponents by 25 points at halftime, and finally won easily.
This result also made many mediocre media start to shout "Bulls championship" again.
The series seems to have no suspense, and everyone is waiting for the Bulls to advance.
On May 5th, the NBA once again announced the best lineup for the 14~97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Li You, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal;
The five members of the second team are:
Gary Payton, Alan Houston, Grant Hill, Vin Baker, David Robinson;
The five members of the third team are:
Tim Hardaway, Reggie Miller, Glenn Rice, Scottie Pippen, Dikembe Mutombo.
As soon as the best lineup was announced, the New York media had a collective climax, and the title of "the league's strongest backcourt combination" was thrown out again
Tim Duncan was selected for a team in his first year as a rookie. The Spurs fans were the happiest, and the future core was already in the team.
Li You was selected to the best team, and New York fans also followed suit. He achieved this achievement in his second year as a rookie, and the future belongs to the Knicks!
For a while, in addition to the two old guys, two new players appeared, which also made many sports media realize that the renewal of the league has begun!
Of course, there are some controversies about the results of this selection. Pippen only played 44 games, but was selected to the best team in the end. This is indeed unfair to some full-time players.
Li You didn't pay attention to the opponent's situation, and participated in training step by step every day. Compared with last season's playoffs, his physical condition this year is extremely good.
The opponent for the Eastern Conference Finals has not yet been determined, which also allows Li You to relax.
On the night of the 15th, Li You took Milinda with him to attend the premiere ceremony of "The Horse Whisperer".
Before 19 o'clock at the Loilaus Theater in the West Side of Midtown Manhattan, a large number of media gathered around here.
The two mainly came to watch movies. Milinda liked western romance movies very much, and Li You would accompany Miss Dabo to the movie theater to relax when she had time.
Li You has participated in this kind of premiere ceremony many times, it is a way to make superficial friends.
The story of the movie was a bit clichéd, but Milinda watched it with gusto, and after the end, the audience applauded the leading actors.
"Kristen is really beautiful, she is a classy lady!"
Milinda deliberately dressed a little more formally tonight, but the light blue shirt was still bulging, and instead, she wore a different kind of temptation.
Christine Stott was indeed beautiful when she was young, but now she has become an aunt. Li You put her arms around Miss Dabo, whispered in her ear:
"You're still more beautiful! We'll go back soon!"
Every time he attends such a party, what makes Li You feel helpless is that he is not yet of legal drinking age.
Although the laws of each state are different, in this kind of public place, Li You has to follow the rules.
The follow-up celebration party was the time for everyone to move freely. Many big stars came that night, and the director and starring Robert Redford was all-round. In this kind of social occasion, Li You was not forgotten.
"Li, help us take care of this little angel, remember not to drink secretly!"
Robert Redford in formal attire looked handsome, winked at Li You, and then led the big brown-haired loli here.
Scarlett Johansson, who was dressed as a lady, watched helplessly as the adults exchanged glasses.
It's rare to be in a decent movie, and I would have liked to socialize, but she was a little girl, and no one would have a drink with her on an occasion like this.
Scarlett, who has a washboard figure, looked very pure. After receiving the juice from Milinda, she noticed the big sister in front of her with an explosive figure.
"Thank you, you are really beautiful! Li, my brother likes you very much!"
Acting like a good girl, Scarlett tried to make herself look more mature, and began to chat about the latest gossip news in New York.
Li You looked at the big loli in front of him, and he really couldn't fit into the grown-up image:
"Thank him for me, and of course, text me if you want to come to Madison Square Garden."
It seemed that Li You didn't treat her as a child, and the big brown-haired loli also showed a smile, feeling that she had found a peer, and started chatting about the crew gossip.
That night, in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Reggie Miller played a stretch, scoring 13 of 2 and only scoring 8 points.
But the Pacers are obstinately protecting the home court under the tenacious protection, and the two sides will enter the tie-breaker.
The New York fans were ecstatic. When it came time to grab the seventh game, anything was possible. At this moment, they were all Pacers fans!
Jeff Van Gundy and the coaching staff were also happy. No matter who wins in the end, the Knicks who are waiting for work will have a huge physical advantage!
The Lakers' disastrous defeat to the Jazz in the Western Conference Finals on the 16th also lost the enthusiasm. As long as they think that Michael may be eliminated, all the sports media will follow suit.
On May 5th, the Eastern Conference Semifinals' Game 17 was heated up. Many fun fans who followed this game were expecting the Pacers to knock out the Bulls.
In such a critical game, Pippen scored 12 of 3 and scored 11 points in the first half.
After halftime, the Bulls only led by 3 points relying on excellent rebounds. This situation almost caused the collective climax of the major sports media.
In the third quarter of the game, they made 3 of 5 deductions and only scored 1 points. The Pacers once again narrowed the gap.
In the last quarter of the game, Mikou was still hitting the iron, but the consecutive breakthroughs required free throws, coupled with the Bulls' tough rebounds, and finally won the game with difficulty.
83:88, the big score came to 4:3, and the Bulls reached the Eastern Conference Finals again!
Reggie Miller performed very well, but in the last quarter of the game, he failed to respond.
At 34:50, the Bulls, who were slamming the iron, grabbed 22 offensive rebounds. They watched the game specially, and Li You, who saw this statistic, was secretly speechless:
"The old guys really worked hard!"
再次出场42分钟,迈扣25中9,罚球15中10,拿到28分9篮板8助攻2失误;
皮蓬18中6,三分线外5中0,罚球9中5,砍下17分12篮板3助攻2抢断1盖帽3失误的数据。
After 7 fierce battles, the dual-core almost couldn't stand it anymore.
After a short rest for a day, everyone in the Bulls flew to New York non-stop.
On the afternoon of the 18th, as soon as the Bulls got off the plane, they were surrounded by enthusiastic New York media.
Phil Jackson stopped the media reporters who wanted to interview the players. At this point, what the players needed was more rest time.
Michael Jordan looked tired in his red Bulls practice uniform.
The most conscientious second player in the league has not shot more than [-]% in a few games, which makes him have to do his best.
But Michael never complained about this, he knew that his teammates had done their best.
The Lakers lost again that night, but most of the sports media was more concerned about the physical condition of the Bulls players.
By the 19th, the Eastern Conference Finals hadn’t even started that night, and many sports media had followed the climax:
"The Bulls are overdrawn!"
At 20 o'clock in the evening, G1 in the Eastern Conference officially started. In the Knicks locker room before the game, Patrick Ewing felt that the championship seemed to be within reach.
The gorilla didn't say chicken soup, and the veterans all did the same, silently crossing themselves, praying for God's blessing
Losing to the Bulls for many years in a row has already made the old guy lose the confidence to brag about X. Li You doesn't care about this. In this round of the series, the Knicks will implement "four guarantees and one".
In the first two rounds, Li You actively passed the ball to his teammates. In the Eastern Conference finals, the roles were reversed, and Alan Houston and the others would be reduced to defensive engineers most of the time.
After Jeff Van Gundy entered the locker room, he looked at everyone with a serious expression, and finally said simply:
"Win all the home games and we'll make it to the Finals again!"
"."
Before the game officially started, the Madison Square Garden Arena was already boiling:
"Number 23, Michael Jordan"
As soon as the DJ at home uttered the name in a low voice, nearly 2 fans booed loudly.
Michael Joe did not chew gum, but finished his appearance after high-fiving his teammates with a serious expression.
As everyone on the Knicks came out one by one, the cheers grew louder, and the fans in New York were extraordinarily involved tonight.
Li You looked calm. This season, from the beginning of the regular season, he has made his best efforts to amplify the advantage of the Knicks.
Concentrating on moving his body, in the final warm-up stage, Li You hit shots again and again, which made the scene burst into cheers.
In the MSG commentary booth, Mike Breen quickly introduced the Bulls' starting lineup:
"Rodman still didn't start tonight, with Ron Harper and Michael Jordan at guard, Scottie Pippen and Tony Kukic at front, and Luke Longley at center."
"Continuing the start of the semifinals, the Bulls did not take the initiative to change in tonight's game."
Walter Fraser had already done his homework by this time, and the legend added confidently:
"This season, the Bulls' three-pointers have experienced a serious decline. During the regular season, they only shot 32.3%. In the playoffs, the outside line was also weak and did not perform well."
"Do a good job of defense and protect the rebounds. Tonight we will successfully protect the home court!"
During the regular season, the Knicks averaged 22.4 shots per game from beyond the three-point line, the number of shots ranked first in the league, and the 37.3% three-point shooting percentage was fourth in the league.
Although it has declined in the playoffs, it is also related to Li You reducing his production.
After the league returned the three-point line to its normal distance, the proportion of three-pointers shot by each team has declined, and the Knicks have bucked the trend.
"Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks!"
The New York fans present began to cheer loudly for the home team, and Ewing, who came to the center circle, was particularly focused.
As the referee tossed the basketball high, the gorilla jumped up and turned the ball towards his own half.
There were no pleasantries before the game, and there was no communication between the players on both sides. Michael Jordan knew that the Knicks on the opposite side might be the team most eager to win him.
Harper led the defense at the first time, and Longley, who retreated quickly, shouted for his teammates to make a defensive matchup.
After making a tactical gesture, Li You held the ball in his right hand and quickly dribbled across the half court against the defense.
Coming to the left flank, Li You lowered his center of gravity and protected the ball sideways. Harper did not choose to cut the ball, but just supported his waist to defend.
Ewing quickly came to the left flank to perform a high pick-and-roll, and the other three all opened up on the other side, partial two-on-two, the usual opening routine of the Knicks.
Before Ewing could stand still, Harper began to move forward, sticking to Li You's side, ready to squeeze through the cover.
Without too much shaking, Li You just blasted the ball vigorously on the spot, then quickly turned his body around, and while catching the ball with his left hand, Ewing stood still.
Harper was delayed for a while, and then Ewing quickly slid down. Langley saw the gorilla rushing fast, and quickly retreated.
The left flank was close to the sideline, and Harper chased him again. Li You, holding the ball in his left hand, raised his center of gravity slightly, quickly completed the dribble under his crotch, swayed his body to the right to mislead the defense, and then retreated in the opposite direction.
Shaking out the shooting space, Li You immediately combined the ball and then quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!
Harper was stuck in place, unable to even react defensively, and loud cheers rang out in his ears.
Simple and rude offense, the moment Li You made a shot, Ewing and Oakley had already squeezed to the basket, and the opening game was to shoot and grab, there was no complicated tactics at all.
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Everyone in the Knicks retreated quickly, the Bulls kicked the baseline, and the defensive cheers became louder and louder.
Li You also did not choose to lead the defense, but Harper's advance speed was not fast, and it took almost 8 seconds to pass halftime.
Although it is a one-on-one defense, but the Knicks here, standing on the right wing Larry - Johnson put Pippen a step.
Michael Jordan asked for the ball with his back in the left block, and Alan Houston immediately went behind him and gave a confrontation.
When Harper came to the left flank, Kukci had already come to the top of the arc to act as a contact point, and by the way took Oakley out of the paint.
On the Bulls side, only Longley was at the bottom right of the basket, and everyone else was on the outside.
Li You saw that Michael Jordan had Alan Houston stuck behind him, and immediately knew that Harper would definitely send the pass.
On the left flank, the moment Harper threw the ball to Michael Jordan, Li You followed to double-team.
Alan Houston blocked the offline, while Li You blocked the online.
Before the two of them actually closed in to catch the ball, Michael Jordan immediately released the ball with his left hand, then took two big strides to the left near the baseline, and then rose from the ground, making an emergency stop jump shot!
"state"
The basketball came out of the basket, and Alan Houston, Larry Johnson, and Oakley were all retreating.
Ewing at the basket firmly stuck Langley behind him and grabbed the rebound. There was no chance to rush to grab the rebound, and the Bulls quickly retreated at this time.
The fans cheered loudly after the dunk hit the iron. Li You, who caught the ball again, began to accelerate along the right sideline.
Just after half court, Li You gave the ball to Larry Johnson at the top of the arc. The right flank was close to the three-point line.
Ewing and Oakley just ran across the half court, and took advantage of the opportunity to stand in the left and right elbows of the free throw line. Li You used the cover of the two to quickly reach the left flank.
Harper was delayed twice, but the old guy was still trying to catch up. Li You had just received a cross pass from Larry Johnson, and Harper was about to rush to his side.
After catching the ball, Li You didn't make too many adjustments. Li You turned around and stood still, raised the ball and threw it!
Harper, who was chasing up, hurriedly jumped up from the side to block the block, but Li You shot too fast, and could only watch the three-pointer fall into the basket again.
"Wow!"
At 0:6, Li You hit two consecutive three-pointers, which immediately ignited the atmosphere of the scene.
His physical fitness has not returned to the best condition, and even his reaction speed has declined. Harper looked at the coaching staff helplessly, but Phil Jackson didn't say anything.
After sending the baseline ball, the Bulls' offensive rhythm is still very slow.
A deeper position requires the ball, which can avoid some double-teams on the line. Michael Jordan slipped to the bottom line this time and then went to the low position on the right, and asked for the ball with his back.
But Alan Houston suddenly circled forward to defend, and Mikou immediately turned around and accelerated to the basket, but the expected pass did not come.
Li You didn't give Harper a chance to pass the ball at all, and kept cutting the ball to interfere.
It was too tight, and Harper finally chose to attack by himself. The ball in his left hand suddenly accelerated, and after dribbling past the three-point line, he suddenly stopped and shot a jumper!
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily.
"Shh!"
When the Bulls scored, there were boos everywhere, but for the Knicks and everyone, such a goal is acceptable.
The Knicks' offense showed no sign of slowing down. After halftime, Li You quickly handed over the ball, changed direction, and still cut horizontally from the upper line.
Harper tried his best to chase and defend this time, and finally he did not lose his position. After Li You received the pass from Larry Johnson, he immediately maintained a three-threat posture.
At this time, Ewing, who had completed the screen, suddenly cut into the paint at the elbow on the left side of the free throw line, and quickly came to the bottom right of the basket. Longley had no time to defend, and Li You threw the ball to Ewing.
Get close to the basket, and after Ewing catches the ball, he hangs on the Langley basket and puts the basket. Under the interference, the basketball still falls into the basket after hitting the rebound.
Successfully ate the pie, but the shooting feel was not good, Ewing consciously caught the ball at a deeper position, the strategy worked, and the gorilla celebrated with a punch.
At 2:8, the cheers at Madison Square Garden grew louder.
In the MSG commentary seat, Walter Fraser was also in high spirits and said loudly:
"The Bulls are not in shape yet, this is a great opportunity for us!"
The Bulls attacked, Michael Jordan received the ball from the left elbow, and when Pippen moved to the left wing, Larry Johnson immediately gave up the matchup and double-teamed quickly.
Michael Jordan quickly threw the ball to Pippen who was open on the left wing. The latter caught the ball and immediately shot a jumper without hesitation!
"state!"
The basketball came out of the basket, and the rebound was received by Oakley who retracted into the paint. The Bulls quickly retreated, and Li You caught the ball and chased his butt across the half court.
On the left flank, approaching the three-point line, Li You, who holds the ball in his left hand, suddenly stopped, quickly dribbled the ball under his crotch, looked up at the frame and pretended to join the ball.
Harper was shaken slightly, Li You took the opportunity to lower his center of gravity, and went straight to the basket with the ball in his right hand.
As soon as the Bulls got a firm foothold, they saw that Li You had broken into the paint, and Kukchi, who was near the baseline on the right, subconsciously moved to the basket, ready to help defend.
Li You, who was on the move, took advantage of the situation and gave the ball to Oakley who was unguarded and cut to the basket.
Kukchi wanted to turn around to complete the block again, but Oakley took the initiative to use his body to carry the defense away, hit the rebound and put the basket successfully.
At 2:10, the Knicks were on the bench, and the atmosphere group shouted excitedly and stood up to celebrate with punches.
The commentator Mike Breen also let out a sigh of relief at this time, and said briskly:
"After the opening, I was still worried about the team's defensive strategy, but judging from the few minutes of the game, our defense worked!"
Phil Jackson next to him saw that the Knicks defense was circling the paint area, and felt a little helpless for a while.
It's no different than the Pacers, keep a big man in the paint all the time
No timeout was called, and over the next few minutes, the Bulls' role players began to help the team score. Pippen and Kukic hit open long twos one after another.
But this did not change the offensive rhythm of the Knicks. After taking a breath, Li You started to attack with the ball again.
Langley, who had just retreated, followed Ewing to the top of the arc. Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, quickly circled the ball behind his back, switched to his left hand, and made a breakthrough on the left.
Quickly in and out on the three-point line, Li You suddenly accelerated after shaking.
Langley subconsciously moved backwards, took the opportunity to quickly change direction, and came to the free throw line. He just got rid of Harper who was chasing him, and immediately stopped and shot a jumper!
"Shua!" A steady hit in the middle distance.
Michael Jordan, who was double-teamed for several consecutive rounds, stopped passing the ball. He received the ball at the right elbow and immediately put the ball with his right hand and dribbled a big step.
Before waiting for the double-team from the line to come up, Michael Jordan made an emergency stop and made a jump shot!
Alan-Houston's blocking was slow and didn't have much effect, and Michael pulled his face and retreated quickly.
The Bulls' defense has always been half a beat slow, and Rodman was replaced after Phil Jackson's timeout, and Longley was replaced, but this situation did not change.
During the positional attack, Li You broke through the middle and faced Harper's defense. He missed a throw in the paint and the basketball bounced twice on the rim before falling out of the rim.
At this time, the basket was already crowded together. Ewing, Oakley, and Larry Johnson rushed desperately, but they didn't see who actually touched the basketball. The fans only saw that the ball was stabbed into the basket as soon as it fell out. basket.
8:18,在第1节比赛还剩5分12秒时,尼克斯队获得了双位数的领先优势。
"Oh!!"
The sound of the scene is getting louder and louder. As long as the Bulls hit the iron, the fans will cheer loudly.
Pippen just broke through to the inside and scored two points with difficulty. Looking back, Michael Jordan was a step slower in chasing and defending. Alan Houston got rid of the defense and received a pass from Li Youheng on the right elbow to make a mid-range jumper!
Michael Jordan forced his way to the basket on the right side of the block and attracted a three-man defense. On the left wing, Kukic received the pass and hit the iron with a wide-open jumper.
The long rebound just happened to be accepted by Li You, and he accelerated and dashed in the middle with the ball in his right hand.
At the top of the arc, Li You quickly circled the ball behind his back. After switching to his left hand, Li You grabbed half of his body and went straight to the basket against Harper's defense.
Pippen, who retreated quickly, rushed to the paint and took off with Li You, but found that the basketball flew to the rear right. Larry Johnson, who followed up, easily caught the ball and put it down!
At 10:22, Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines couldn't help throwing his fists in celebration, and then loudly reminded the players to retreat quickly.
The hardcore Michael Jordan hit another jumper from the free throw line in the second half of the first quarter.
Kukchi's several vacancies were all hit.
Seeing that the point difference did not shrink, Midu began to force his way to the basket again.
In the last few minutes of the first quarter, Li You also stood on the free throw line. Harper couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and when he switched offense and came to the paint area, he made a clean foul.
At 17:30, at the end of the first quarter, Madison Square Garden cheered again.
"We perfectly controlled the game! Before the Bulls had fully entered the state, we had a double-digit lead."
"Lee's performance must be praised, and he responded in time when the team needed to score!"
Watching such a game, Walter Fraser was so excited that he couldn't stop blowing.
The commentator Mike Brin saw the Bulls were 3 for 0 from outside the three-point line, and added with a smile:
"Coach Jeff Van Gundy's defensive strategy is very successful, the team's execution is also very good, this is a victory for the team!"
Although the game only played one quarter, the New York fans at the scene were already in high spirits, and the Bulls had no power to fight back!
打满首节,7中4,三分线外3中2,罚球2中2,李佑单节砍下12分2篮板3助攻。
As soon as he returned to his seat, Ben Davis of the atmosphere group handed the water bottle and towel to Li You, and said excitedly:
"Cool, Lee! We're going to win tonight! The Bulls are done!"
Everyone in the atmosphere group also booed loudly. When the Knicks led by double digits this season, they never lost a game!
Jeff Van Gundy greeted a few people in the rotation lineup and exhorted excitedly:
"Don't relax, continue to maintain this rhythm of the game, they can't run anymore!"
Starks is also in high spirits at this time, and he will punch hard every time there is a tailwind.
The Knicks rotated step by step, with Chris Childs, Starks, Chris Mills, Larry Johnson and Dudley appearing.
The Bulls also carried out a personnel rotation, with Steve Kerr, Scott Burrell, Buichler, Rodman, and Longley appearing.
Harper, Michael Jordan, and Pippen all played the first quarter, and they are currently sitting on the bench.
The director frequently gave the camera to Maidu, who scored 6 of 2 in the first quarter, 3 of 2 free throws, and scored 6 points. Pippen scored 6 of 2 and also scored 6 points.
The Bulls' rotation lasted less than 3 minutes, and the main lineup returned one after another.
Jeff Van Gundy was the first to get Ewing back, and only got Li You with 2 minutes and 6 seconds left in the second quarter.
At 25:39, the Knicks still led by 14 points.
After resting for half a quarter of the game, Li You took over the ball again after he came on the court, and Michael Jordan, who gradually found his shooting touch, also began to score consecutive points.
Allan Houston can only stalk at this time, moving back and forth with Michael Jordan.
For several consecutive rounds, he ran away from the defense by running without the ball, and hit the shot after receiving the ball. Michael Jordan was playing smoothly at this time.
In this attack, Michael Jordan moved diagonally on the right side near the baseline, and with the help of Kukic's cover, he came to the left elbow of the free throw line.
Kerr on the right wing starts to move early, ready to pass the ball to Mikko.
It's just that the intention of passing the ball was too obvious. After being blocked by Li You, Cole failed to send the ball immediately.
Alan Houston chased up again, and Michael Jordan moved sideways again at this time, and simply came to the top of the arc to respond.
Cole has been guarded by Li You. Seeing that the boss is about to catch the ball at the top of the arc, Cole immediately turns around, protects the ball sideways, and sends a cross pass with his right hand.
Before the basketball was out of his hands, Li You stretched out his left hand and slapped it off.
Although Michael Jordan is in poor physical condition, he is also speeding up behind Li You with his eyes wide open!
In the blink of an eye, the two had already crossed the half court. Seeing that Li You showed no signs of slowing down, they took three big strides in the paint and wanted to dunk the dunk behind them to speed up again.
Then vacated in the paint, jumped high, and Michael Jordan was about to send a big hat!
Grabbing the ball with one hand with his right hand, Li You, who was in the air, made a fake pass and moved the ball behind his back, throwing it to Alan Houston who was following up.
The latter received the ball, completely unguarded, and directly hit a one-handed dunk!
"Wow!!"
The dunk ignited the atmosphere in the arena again, and the cheers grew louder.
After landing, with a smile on his face, Li You nodded his head lightly with his right hand, immediately angering Michael Jordan in front of him.
Michael Jordan, who took a breath, kept shooting in the second quarter, but after taking the initiative to speed up the offensive rhythm, the Knicks' defensive actions became bigger and bigger.
In the offensive round, Michael Jordan originally planned to use the cover to get rid of the defense, but was pulled by Oakley in the paint area, and was quickly chased by Alan Houston.
Breaking through to the inside, Michael Jordan was blocked by Ewing before he had time to put the basket.
The whistle gradually sounded, and Michael Jordan, who had just found some offensive rhythm in the first half of the game, soon began to strike iron again.
Li You was unaffected. Although Cole tried hard to defend, the aggressive screens of Ewing and Oakley always allowed him to easily get rid of the defense.
In the pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, Cole failed to squeeze through the screen in time, and watched Li You make a three-pointer before making an emergency stop.
Kukchi's delay was slow, and Phil Jackson on the sidelines was a little impatient, but at this time he could only encourage loudly
Rodman was blocked by Ewing when he ate a cake under the basket. The Bulls retreated slowly. Li You, who was about to get off, rushed into the paint area, carried Cole and tilted his body with his left hand to pick the basket and succeeded!
Pippen hit a two-pointer, and the Bulls had just retreated to the half court. Ewing succeeded in getting a position at the bottom left of the basket. After receiving the ball, Kukci caused a thug foul.
Jeff Van Gundy didn't take the initiative to ask for a timeout. Seeing that the Knicks' offensive rhythm was getting faster and faster, he simply returned to the bench with a smug smile.
Michael Jordan took a few deep breaths as he hit the free throw, trying to regain some energy.
But in the last few minutes, several shots were banged up
Seeing the Knicks rushing faster and faster, the Bulls couldn't hold back, and in desperation began to make tactical fouls.
"Shhh!!"
Several consecutive rounds were free throws, and the New York fans who felt that they had a chance to win still booed the Bulls wildly.
At the last moment of the half, Li You missed a long three-pointer, and Cole, who was sprinting back and forth desperately to defend, also began to pant.
At 38:54, the Knicks entered the second half with a 16-point lead.
At halftime, in the Knicks locker room, Jeff Van Gundy was still loudly reminding everyone:
"In the second quarter, Michael Jordan scored 4 for 4 and then scored 5 for 1. Our defense worked!"
"Keep this defensive strength and don't give the opponent any chance!"
In the second quarter, Michael, who made consecutive shots, tossed the Knicks' defense again. Fortunately, they led by a big score and everyone was full of energy.
Ewing made 7 of 3 in the half, scored 10 points and 7 rebounds. Although they were all eating cakes and free throws, the gorilla didn't care anymore, and encouraged everyone excitedly:
"There are still two quarters of the game, we can win G1, the opponent can no longer keep up with our rhythm!"
Li You clapped his hands, and everyone cheered, victory was close at hand.
The halftime break did not allow the Bulls to find their hands.
Perhaps it was because of the real overdraft of physical fitness, Michael Jordan still hit the iron in the third quarter.
Under continuous double-teaming, Mikou was forced to complete the shot from beyond the three-point line
The appearance of such a scene made the Knicks fans shout wildly, Michael Jordan couldn't move!
The Knicks had more and more transition attacks, Li You continued to speed up the game, and the Bulls' defense finally collapsed completely.
Pippen, who was emptied, failed to respond from beyond the three-point line. The Bulls' bench was silent, and the atmosphere team also stopped.
19:24 in a single quarter, 57:78 in three quarters, and the last quarter entered garbage time.
Going 7 of 2 in a single quarter and scoring 5 points, Michael Jordan returned to the bench with a straight face, replenished his water, and kept panting.
Phil Jackson wanted to give up the fourth quarter, but Michael Jordan played another 6 minutes and 42 seconds. Seeing that the point difference had not narrowed, he took the atmosphere group.
At Madison Square Garden, the New York fans at the scene began to celebrate the victory of the game. The noise became louder and louder. Walter Fraser in the commentary was completely comfortable and praised loudly:
"Perfect victory, we completely controlled the rhythm of the game!"
"Excellent performances on both ends of the offense and defense. Coach Van Gundy is very well prepared for this game!"
Winning so easily, the commentator Mike Breen also drifted at this time:
"Keep it like this, I believe the Knicks will win the series eventually!"
Fortunately, the two of them were still calm, they didn't have a loan for the championship, they just couldn't stop bragging in the commentary booth.
Li You also breathed a sigh of relief when he was substituted. Without a rain of one point, the Bulls were powerless to chase points.
The Knicks are on the bench, and the atmosphere group has entered a self-satisfied state again. It is also a rare achievement to be able to throw the towel in the conference finals
The last 5 minutes or so passed quickly, and the final buzz sounded. 80:102, the Knicks beat the Bulls and successfully protected the home court!
In the Madison Square Garden arena, the happy New York fans did not intend to let Michael go, and there were endless shouts and curses.
Wearing a towel, Michael Jordan ignored the voices around him and walked towards the player tunnel with a blank expression.
25中10,三分线外2中1,罚球7中6,27分3篮板2助攻1失误,身体状况一般,迈扣依旧拿到了全队的最高分。
The Bulls exited quickly, and MSG interviewed Li You for the first time. The commentator Mike Breen asked with a smile:
"Big victory over the opponent by 22 points, Li, did you expect such a game situation before the game?"
出场36分钟,23中11,三分线外9中5,罚球7中6,33分4篮板7助攻2抢断1失误,李佑拿到全场的最高分。
Having already changed into his training clothes, Li You didn't show a trace of fatigue on his face at this time, and responded with a relaxed expression:
"The opponent has just experienced a 7-game tie-breaker. A big victory is naturally within our expectations."
"The Bulls will definitely make adjustments in the follow-up games, but we are ready."
Walter Fred noticed that Ewing was still throwing his fist in celebration, and seemed very excited, he couldn't help laughing and sighing:
"This is indeed the best opportunity for the Knicks. Everyone doesn't want to miss the championship again."
"."
At the post-match press conference, Li You and Ewing didn't have to answer any questions, and the New York media in the audience turned into idiots and crazily praised their performance.
13 of 6, 6 of 4 free throws, 16 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers. The gorilla didn't score many points. Most of them were free throws from the basket, but no one cared about this.
It seems that recalling the scene of reaching the finals that year, Ewing was in high spirits, but at the same time, he did not let down his vigilance to make random loans, until the ESPN reporter asked:
"Pat! Congratulations on winning G1. After returning from injury, we all noticed that your role in the team has changed. Are you satisfied with your current role?"
The New York media in the audience immediately glared at the bald reporter, Li You on the stage was still smiling, and Ewing replied calmly:
"I never cared about this, and no one in the Knicks cared about it!"
"Now I just want to win the championship. I am very satisfied with the state of the team."

QAQ is even later, tomorrow is still 12 o'clock, and it is still [-]D~
(End of this chapter)
On May 1998, 5, at the Charlotte Stadium, the Hornets fans present could only watch the atmosphere group of the Knicks jumping and jumping on the sidelines, shouting happily.
"Shhh!!"
Boos and shouts resounded throughout the arena, and the Hornets fans on the scene began to boo incompetently, and by the way, they also sent the boos to the home team. They didn't win a game, and it was really embarrassing!
At 100:84, the Hornets' offense was cut off in the second quarter. After the Knicks opened up the point difference, they didn't give their opponents any chance and won the game cleanly.
With a big score of 4:0, the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Knicks swept their opponents and reached the Eastern Conference Finals for two consecutive years!
In the NBC commentary on the spot, Bob Costas shook his head with a smile, and praised the performance of the Hornets:
"Glenn Rice gave everything for this game, played 48 minutes, made 21 of 13, and scored a game-high 30 points!"
"Mason also performed well, scoring 13 of 7 and contributing 16 points. The Hornets lost on rebounds. They gave the Knicks too many second-attack opportunities."
Coach Doug Collins, who broke up peacefully with the Pistons this season, was also on the commentary table, glanced at the technical statistics, and said with a smile:
"Patrick Ewing's offensive state has declined, but this may be a good thing for the Knicks!"
"I respect Ewing a lot, but he is 36 years old, and Lee is the core of the current team."
"Scorer and playmaker can switch seamlessly. In my opinion, Lee is the answer at the No. 1 position in the future."
"Only those who have played against him will truly understand his talent. His steady style of play is the key to the Knicks reaching the Eastern Conference Finals for two consecutive years."
出场39分钟,14中6,三分线外5中2,罚球6中6,20分3篮板14助攻2抢断3失误,今晚李佑再次砍下两双数据。
Jim Gray, another commentator in the commentary booth, was looking at Li You's technical statistics. Hearing such comments, he immediately asked with a smile:
"Solid play? We're talking about Lee! The New York media is calling him the next Magic Johnson."
"You can look at Li's turnover rate, the data truly reflects his playing style!"
"."
The three people in the commentary turned the topic unknowingly, but no one cared about it at this time. The Knicks became the first team to reach the conference finals this season!
Larry Johnson hugged everyone at this time, and felt enjoyable after hugging, and had to encourage the Hornets players a few words.
Li You didn't have such bad intentions. He was about to leave the field when he noticed a kid in the front row wearing the No. 1 Knicks away jersey waving to him, so he stopped.
He casually signed an autograph for this rebellious little guy. The arena was still very noisy, and the kid in front of him shouted excitedly:
"Cool! I want to play like you, I love the Knicks!"
After the two fist bumped, the rebellious kid happily hugged his mother who was wearing the Hornets No. 30 jersey beside him and yelled.
On the other side, Dell Curry, who basically played soy sauce in the series, turned black when he saw such a scene:
"There is a traitor in our family"
Back in the locker room, Li You saw that Jeff Van Gundy had already burst into laughter and reached the division finals. The bald young coach was extremely satisfied.
"We played a perfect performance! The Eastern Conference finals will not be the end, our goal is only the championship!"
"After returning to New York, give yourself a vacation, read less newspapers, adjust your state, and the next thing we have to do is to defend the home court."
Jeff Van Gundy began to send chicken soup for the soul, and the bald young marshal continued to draw cakes, and milked everyone full of vitality
After reaching the Eastern Conference finals, Ewing, who was passively turned into a tool man, was also in a good mood.
Several veterans know in their hearts that this year may be the best time for them to win the championship. As they grow older, their physical condition will inevitably decline.
Oakley is getting better and better after the return of the gorilla, and the old guy is also a little excited at this time:
"Our chance has come, no matter who the opponent is, the state will not be better than us!"
The atmosphere group immediately echoed, and soon everyone discussed the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals.
In another group of G4 games, the Bulls almost suppressed the Pacers.
But as Reggie Miller pushed away Michael Jordan at the last moment and hit a three-pointer from the right wing outside the three-point line, the Pacers finally succeeded in killing the Bulls.
At 94:96, two consecutive home games were protected, and then the two sides will have a battle of Tianwangshan.
Alan Houston is looking at the schedule and casually sending out blessings:
"I hope they can reach the tiebreaker 7, so that we can get a big physical advantage."
The Bulls and the Pacers were at loggerheads, and the situation was as he expected. Li You rubbed his chin, and said cheerfully at this time:
"The old guy should be tired too, this is indeed our perfect opportunity!"
"."
On May 5, the NBA announced the best rookie lineup for the 12-97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Tim Duncan, Zajunas Igleskas, Blevin Knight, Ron Mosser, Keith Van Horn;
The five members of the second team are:
Derek Anderson, Cedric Henderson, Bobby Jackson, Maurice Taylor, Tim Thomas.
Compared with the rookies of the previous class, except for Duncan and Van Horn, the members of the All-Rookie Team this year are a bit mediocre.
Tim Duncan was too late to be happy. In the Western Conference semifinals that night, 77:87, the Spurs lost again.
The big score in the series came to 4:1. In the end, the Jazz gentleman swept the Spurs and reached the Western Conference Finals again.
Another Western Conference semifinal, 110:95, relying on O'Neal's outstanding performance, the Lakers defeated the Sonics away, with a big score of 4:1, and entered the Western Conference Finals!
鲨鱼今晚发挥出色17中12,罚球12中7,七成命中率砍下31分9篮板4助攻8盖帽5失误的数据。
So far, the two teams in the Western Conference Finals have been officially announced:
Lakers VS Jazz.
The media in Los Angeles also followed the climax at this time, and fell into a state of self-indulgence. The Jazz's old man basketball can't stop the in-form O'Neal!
New York fans did not pay attention to these two teams, and everyone wanted to see the Bulls eliminated by the Pacers.
On May 5, the NBA announced the best defensive lineup for the 13-97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Gary Payton, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Karl Malone, Dikambe Mutombo;
The five members of the second team are:
Mookie Blaylock, Eddie Jones, Charles Oakley, David Robinson, Tim Duncan.
After seeing this list, the New York media felt comfortable. The All-Star Game felt that they were put on small shoes and selected to the best defensive team, which is considered to have regained face.
After the video class in the morning, everyone in the Knicks also congratulated Oakley, who was selected to the All-Defensive Team for the second time in his career, and the old guy was very happy.
"Come and relax at night, I'm in for a treat, it's been a perfect season!"
Oakley grinned and threw money directly, and the atmosphere group cheered, and it was time for the favorite eating and drinking session again.
Compared with the two teams still preparing for the Tianwangshan battle, the Knicks got a lot of rest time.
Li You still doesn't know whether Oakley has reached an extension with the Knicks, but if he enters the best defensive team, maybe the old guy has a chance to stay on the team.
Ewing and Starks also smiled and sent blessings. Larry Johnson on the side seemed to think of the follow-up best lineup, and said sourly in his heart:
"I feel like the media is ignoring me!"
As the team with the number one record in the regular season, the Knicks have won some honors, which is a matter of course, but the situation of "Auntie" is a bit embarrassing.
Neither the defensive core of the team nor the second scorer, Li You can only comfort "Auntie" at this time, and draw a cake by the way:
"As long as you win the championship, you will get a lot of attention. At least, the New York media will not forget you."
Alan Houston is not sour. Although he was not selected as an All-Star this year, there is a high probability that he will enter the best team.
Jeff Van Gundy was completely relieved to see the harmonious atmosphere in the team, but Thibodeau on the side suddenly reminded:
"We still have to let Pat find his status. Whether Houston is playing against Miller or Midu, it will consume a lot of energy on the defensive end."
Everyone in the coaching staff also discussed in a low voice. Jeff Van Gundy sighed secretly when he thought of the gorilla's shooting touch:
"The right to digest the ball has also become a problem"
Since only the Pacers and Bulls are left in the semifinals, the Tianwangshan battle in G5 has attracted a lot of attention.
It's just that the content of the game that night disappointed the fans.
At 87:106, the Bulls returned to the home court and led their opponents by 25 points at halftime, and finally won easily.
This result also made many mediocre media start to shout "Bulls championship" again.
The series seems to have no suspense, and everyone is waiting for the Bulls to advance.
On May 5th, the NBA once again announced the best lineup for the 14~97 season:
The five members of the first team are:
Li You, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal;
The five members of the second team are:
Gary Payton, Alan Houston, Grant Hill, Vin Baker, David Robinson;
The five members of the third team are:
Tim Hardaway, Reggie Miller, Glenn Rice, Scottie Pippen, Dikembe Mutombo.
As soon as the best lineup was announced, the New York media had a collective climax, and the title of "the league's strongest backcourt combination" was thrown out again
Tim Duncan was selected for a team in his first year as a rookie. The Spurs fans were the happiest, and the future core was already in the team.
Li You was selected to the best team, and New York fans also followed suit. He achieved this achievement in his second year as a rookie, and the future belongs to the Knicks!
For a while, in addition to the two old guys, two new players appeared, which also made many sports media realize that the renewal of the league has begun!
Of course, there are some controversies about the results of this selection. Pippen only played 44 games, but was selected to the best team in the end. This is indeed unfair to some full-time players.
Li You didn't pay attention to the opponent's situation, and participated in training step by step every day. Compared with last season's playoffs, his physical condition this year is extremely good.
The opponent for the Eastern Conference Finals has not yet been determined, which also allows Li You to relax.
On the night of the 15th, Li You took Milinda with him to attend the premiere ceremony of "The Horse Whisperer".
Before 19 o'clock at the Loilaus Theater in the West Side of Midtown Manhattan, a large number of media gathered around here.
The two mainly came to watch movies. Milinda liked western romance movies very much, and Li You would accompany Miss Dabo to the movie theater to relax when she had time.
Li You has participated in this kind of premiere ceremony many times, it is a way to make superficial friends.
The story of the movie was a bit clichéd, but Milinda watched it with gusto, and after the end, the audience applauded the leading actors.
"Kristen is really beautiful, she is a classy lady!"
Milinda deliberately dressed a little more formally tonight, but the light blue shirt was still bulging, and instead, she wore a different kind of temptation.
Christine Stott was indeed beautiful when she was young, but now she has become an aunt. Li You put her arms around Miss Dabo, whispered in her ear:
"You're still more beautiful! We'll go back soon!"
Every time he attends such a party, what makes Li You feel helpless is that he is not yet of legal drinking age.
Although the laws of each state are different, in this kind of public place, Li You has to follow the rules.
The follow-up celebration party was the time for everyone to move freely. Many big stars came that night, and the director and starring Robert Redford was all-round. In this kind of social occasion, Li You was not forgotten.
"Li, help us take care of this little angel, remember not to drink secretly!"
Robert Redford in formal attire looked handsome, winked at Li You, and then led the big brown-haired loli here.
Scarlett Johansson, who was dressed as a lady, watched helplessly as the adults exchanged glasses.
It's rare to be in a decent movie, and I would have liked to socialize, but she was a little girl, and no one would have a drink with her on an occasion like this.
Scarlett, who has a washboard figure, looked very pure. After receiving the juice from Milinda, she noticed the big sister in front of her with an explosive figure.
"Thank you, you are really beautiful! Li, my brother likes you very much!"
Acting like a good girl, Scarlett tried to make herself look more mature, and began to chat about the latest gossip news in New York.
Li You looked at the big loli in front of him, and he really couldn't fit into the grown-up image:
"Thank him for me, and of course, text me if you want to come to Madison Square Garden."
It seemed that Li You didn't treat her as a child, and the big brown-haired loli also showed a smile, feeling that she had found a peer, and started chatting about the crew gossip.
That night, in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Reggie Miller played a stretch, scoring 13 of 2 and only scoring 8 points.
But the Pacers are obstinately protecting the home court under the tenacious protection, and the two sides will enter the tie-breaker.
The New York fans were ecstatic. When it came time to grab the seventh game, anything was possible. At this moment, they were all Pacers fans!
Jeff Van Gundy and the coaching staff were also happy. No matter who wins in the end, the Knicks who are waiting for work will have a huge physical advantage!
The Lakers' disastrous defeat to the Jazz in the Western Conference Finals on the 16th also lost the enthusiasm. As long as they think that Michael may be eliminated, all the sports media will follow suit.
On May 5th, the Eastern Conference Semifinals' Game 17 was heated up. Many fun fans who followed this game were expecting the Pacers to knock out the Bulls.
In such a critical game, Pippen scored 12 of 3 and scored 11 points in the first half.
After halftime, the Bulls only led by 3 points relying on excellent rebounds. This situation almost caused the collective climax of the major sports media.
In the third quarter of the game, they made 3 of 5 deductions and only scored 1 points. The Pacers once again narrowed the gap.
In the last quarter of the game, Mikou was still hitting the iron, but the consecutive breakthroughs required free throws, coupled with the Bulls' tough rebounds, and finally won the game with difficulty.
83:88, the big score came to 4:3, and the Bulls reached the Eastern Conference Finals again!
Reggie Miller performed very well, but in the last quarter of the game, he failed to respond.
At 34:50, the Bulls, who were slamming the iron, grabbed 22 offensive rebounds. They watched the game specially, and Li You, who saw this statistic, was secretly speechless:
"The old guys really worked hard!"
再次出场42分钟,迈扣25中9,罚球15中10,拿到28分9篮板8助攻2失误;
皮蓬18中6,三分线外5中0,罚球9中5,砍下17分12篮板3助攻2抢断1盖帽3失误的数据。
After 7 fierce battles, the dual-core almost couldn't stand it anymore.
After a short rest for a day, everyone in the Bulls flew to New York non-stop.
On the afternoon of the 18th, as soon as the Bulls got off the plane, they were surrounded by enthusiastic New York media.
Phil Jackson stopped the media reporters who wanted to interview the players. At this point, what the players needed was more rest time.
Michael Jordan looked tired in his red Bulls practice uniform.
The most conscientious second player in the league has not shot more than [-]% in a few games, which makes him have to do his best.
But Michael never complained about this, he knew that his teammates had done their best.
The Lakers lost again that night, but most of the sports media was more concerned about the physical condition of the Bulls players.
By the 19th, the Eastern Conference Finals hadn’t even started that night, and many sports media had followed the climax:
"The Bulls are overdrawn!"
At 20 o'clock in the evening, G1 in the Eastern Conference officially started. In the Knicks locker room before the game, Patrick Ewing felt that the championship seemed to be within reach.
The gorilla didn't say chicken soup, and the veterans all did the same, silently crossing themselves, praying for God's blessing
Losing to the Bulls for many years in a row has already made the old guy lose the confidence to brag about X. Li You doesn't care about this. In this round of the series, the Knicks will implement "four guarantees and one".
In the first two rounds, Li You actively passed the ball to his teammates. In the Eastern Conference finals, the roles were reversed, and Alan Houston and the others would be reduced to defensive engineers most of the time.
After Jeff Van Gundy entered the locker room, he looked at everyone with a serious expression, and finally said simply:
"Win all the home games and we'll make it to the Finals again!"
"."
Before the game officially started, the Madison Square Garden Arena was already boiling:
"Number 23, Michael Jordan"
As soon as the DJ at home uttered the name in a low voice, nearly 2 fans booed loudly.
Michael Joe did not chew gum, but finished his appearance after high-fiving his teammates with a serious expression.
As everyone on the Knicks came out one by one, the cheers grew louder, and the fans in New York were extraordinarily involved tonight.
Li You looked calm. This season, from the beginning of the regular season, he has made his best efforts to amplify the advantage of the Knicks.
Concentrating on moving his body, in the final warm-up stage, Li You hit shots again and again, which made the scene burst into cheers.
In the MSG commentary booth, Mike Breen quickly introduced the Bulls' starting lineup:
"Rodman still didn't start tonight, with Ron Harper and Michael Jordan at guard, Scottie Pippen and Tony Kukic at front, and Luke Longley at center."
"Continuing the start of the semifinals, the Bulls did not take the initiative to change in tonight's game."
Walter Fraser had already done his homework by this time, and the legend added confidently:
"This season, the Bulls' three-pointers have experienced a serious decline. During the regular season, they only shot 32.3%. In the playoffs, the outside line was also weak and did not perform well."
"Do a good job of defense and protect the rebounds. Tonight we will successfully protect the home court!"
During the regular season, the Knicks averaged 22.4 shots per game from beyond the three-point line, the number of shots ranked first in the league, and the 37.3% three-point shooting percentage was fourth in the league.
Although it has declined in the playoffs, it is also related to Li You reducing his production.
After the league returned the three-point line to its normal distance, the proportion of three-pointers shot by each team has declined, and the Knicks have bucked the trend.
"Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks!"
The New York fans present began to cheer loudly for the home team, and Ewing, who came to the center circle, was particularly focused.
As the referee tossed the basketball high, the gorilla jumped up and turned the ball towards his own half.
There were no pleasantries before the game, and there was no communication between the players on both sides. Michael Jordan knew that the Knicks on the opposite side might be the team most eager to win him.
Harper led the defense at the first time, and Longley, who retreated quickly, shouted for his teammates to make a defensive matchup.
After making a tactical gesture, Li You held the ball in his right hand and quickly dribbled across the half court against the defense.
Coming to the left flank, Li You lowered his center of gravity and protected the ball sideways. Harper did not choose to cut the ball, but just supported his waist to defend.
Ewing quickly came to the left flank to perform a high pick-and-roll, and the other three all opened up on the other side, partial two-on-two, the usual opening routine of the Knicks.
Before Ewing could stand still, Harper began to move forward, sticking to Li You's side, ready to squeeze through the cover.
Without too much shaking, Li You just blasted the ball vigorously on the spot, then quickly turned his body around, and while catching the ball with his left hand, Ewing stood still.
Harper was delayed for a while, and then Ewing quickly slid down. Langley saw the gorilla rushing fast, and quickly retreated.
The left flank was close to the sideline, and Harper chased him again. Li You, holding the ball in his left hand, raised his center of gravity slightly, quickly completed the dribble under his crotch, swayed his body to the right to mislead the defense, and then retreated in the opposite direction.
Shaking out the shooting space, Li You immediately combined the ball and then quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!
Harper was stuck in place, unable to even react defensively, and loud cheers rang out in his ears.
Simple and rude offense, the moment Li You made a shot, Ewing and Oakley had already squeezed to the basket, and the opening game was to shoot and grab, there was no complicated tactics at all.
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Everyone in the Knicks retreated quickly, the Bulls kicked the baseline, and the defensive cheers became louder and louder.
Li You also did not choose to lead the defense, but Harper's advance speed was not fast, and it took almost 8 seconds to pass halftime.
Although it is a one-on-one defense, but the Knicks here, standing on the right wing Larry - Johnson put Pippen a step.
Michael Jordan asked for the ball with his back in the left block, and Alan Houston immediately went behind him and gave a confrontation.
When Harper came to the left flank, Kukci had already come to the top of the arc to act as a contact point, and by the way took Oakley out of the paint.
On the Bulls side, only Longley was at the bottom right of the basket, and everyone else was on the outside.
Li You saw that Michael Jordan had Alan Houston stuck behind him, and immediately knew that Harper would definitely send the pass.
On the left flank, the moment Harper threw the ball to Michael Jordan, Li You followed to double-team.
Alan Houston blocked the offline, while Li You blocked the online.
Before the two of them actually closed in to catch the ball, Michael Jordan immediately released the ball with his left hand, then took two big strides to the left near the baseline, and then rose from the ground, making an emergency stop jump shot!
"state"
The basketball came out of the basket, and Alan Houston, Larry Johnson, and Oakley were all retreating.
Ewing at the basket firmly stuck Langley behind him and grabbed the rebound. There was no chance to rush to grab the rebound, and the Bulls quickly retreated at this time.
The fans cheered loudly after the dunk hit the iron. Li You, who caught the ball again, began to accelerate along the right sideline.
Just after half court, Li You gave the ball to Larry Johnson at the top of the arc. The right flank was close to the three-point line.
Ewing and Oakley just ran across the half court, and took advantage of the opportunity to stand in the left and right elbows of the free throw line. Li You used the cover of the two to quickly reach the left flank.
Harper was delayed twice, but the old guy was still trying to catch up. Li You had just received a cross pass from Larry Johnson, and Harper was about to rush to his side.
After catching the ball, Li You didn't make too many adjustments. Li You turned around and stood still, raised the ball and threw it!
Harper, who was chasing up, hurriedly jumped up from the side to block the block, but Li You shot too fast, and could only watch the three-pointer fall into the basket again.
"Wow!"
At 0:6, Li You hit two consecutive three-pointers, which immediately ignited the atmosphere of the scene.
His physical fitness has not returned to the best condition, and even his reaction speed has declined. Harper looked at the coaching staff helplessly, but Phil Jackson didn't say anything.
After sending the baseline ball, the Bulls' offensive rhythm is still very slow.
A deeper position requires the ball, which can avoid some double-teams on the line. Michael Jordan slipped to the bottom line this time and then went to the low position on the right, and asked for the ball with his back.
But Alan Houston suddenly circled forward to defend, and Mikou immediately turned around and accelerated to the basket, but the expected pass did not come.
Li You didn't give Harper a chance to pass the ball at all, and kept cutting the ball to interfere.
It was too tight, and Harper finally chose to attack by himself. The ball in his left hand suddenly accelerated, and after dribbling past the three-point line, he suddenly stopped and shot a jumper!
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily.
"Shh!"
When the Bulls scored, there were boos everywhere, but for the Knicks and everyone, such a goal is acceptable.
The Knicks' offense showed no sign of slowing down. After halftime, Li You quickly handed over the ball, changed direction, and still cut horizontally from the upper line.
Harper tried his best to chase and defend this time, and finally he did not lose his position. After Li You received the pass from Larry Johnson, he immediately maintained a three-threat posture.
At this time, Ewing, who had completed the screen, suddenly cut into the paint at the elbow on the left side of the free throw line, and quickly came to the bottom right of the basket. Longley had no time to defend, and Li You threw the ball to Ewing.
Get close to the basket, and after Ewing catches the ball, he hangs on the Langley basket and puts the basket. Under the interference, the basketball still falls into the basket after hitting the rebound.
Successfully ate the pie, but the shooting feel was not good, Ewing consciously caught the ball at a deeper position, the strategy worked, and the gorilla celebrated with a punch.
At 2:8, the cheers at Madison Square Garden grew louder.
In the MSG commentary seat, Walter Fraser was also in high spirits and said loudly:
"The Bulls are not in shape yet, this is a great opportunity for us!"
The Bulls attacked, Michael Jordan received the ball from the left elbow, and when Pippen moved to the left wing, Larry Johnson immediately gave up the matchup and double-teamed quickly.
Michael Jordan quickly threw the ball to Pippen who was open on the left wing. The latter caught the ball and immediately shot a jumper without hesitation!
"state!"
The basketball came out of the basket, and the rebound was received by Oakley who retracted into the paint. The Bulls quickly retreated, and Li You caught the ball and chased his butt across the half court.
On the left flank, approaching the three-point line, Li You, who holds the ball in his left hand, suddenly stopped, quickly dribbled the ball under his crotch, looked up at the frame and pretended to join the ball.
Harper was shaken slightly, Li You took the opportunity to lower his center of gravity, and went straight to the basket with the ball in his right hand.
As soon as the Bulls got a firm foothold, they saw that Li You had broken into the paint, and Kukchi, who was near the baseline on the right, subconsciously moved to the basket, ready to help defend.
Li You, who was on the move, took advantage of the situation and gave the ball to Oakley who was unguarded and cut to the basket.
Kukchi wanted to turn around to complete the block again, but Oakley took the initiative to use his body to carry the defense away, hit the rebound and put the basket successfully.
At 2:10, the Knicks were on the bench, and the atmosphere group shouted excitedly and stood up to celebrate with punches.
The commentator Mike Breen also let out a sigh of relief at this time, and said briskly:
"After the opening, I was still worried about the team's defensive strategy, but judging from the few minutes of the game, our defense worked!"
Phil Jackson next to him saw that the Knicks defense was circling the paint area, and felt a little helpless for a while.
It's no different than the Pacers, keep a big man in the paint all the time
No timeout was called, and over the next few minutes, the Bulls' role players began to help the team score. Pippen and Kukic hit open long twos one after another.
But this did not change the offensive rhythm of the Knicks. After taking a breath, Li You started to attack with the ball again.
Langley, who had just retreated, followed Ewing to the top of the arc. Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, quickly circled the ball behind his back, switched to his left hand, and made a breakthrough on the left.
Quickly in and out on the three-point line, Li You suddenly accelerated after shaking.
Langley subconsciously moved backwards, took the opportunity to quickly change direction, and came to the free throw line. He just got rid of Harper who was chasing him, and immediately stopped and shot a jumper!
"Shua!" A steady hit in the middle distance.
Michael Jordan, who was double-teamed for several consecutive rounds, stopped passing the ball. He received the ball at the right elbow and immediately put the ball with his right hand and dribbled a big step.
Before waiting for the double-team from the line to come up, Michael Jordan made an emergency stop and made a jump shot!
Alan-Houston's blocking was slow and didn't have much effect, and Michael pulled his face and retreated quickly.
The Bulls' defense has always been half a beat slow, and Rodman was replaced after Phil Jackson's timeout, and Longley was replaced, but this situation did not change.
During the positional attack, Li You broke through the middle and faced Harper's defense. He missed a throw in the paint and the basketball bounced twice on the rim before falling out of the rim.
At this time, the basket was already crowded together. Ewing, Oakley, and Larry Johnson rushed desperately, but they didn't see who actually touched the basketball. The fans only saw that the ball was stabbed into the basket as soon as it fell out. basket.
8:18,在第1节比赛还剩5分12秒时,尼克斯队获得了双位数的领先优势。
"Oh!!"
The sound of the scene is getting louder and louder. As long as the Bulls hit the iron, the fans will cheer loudly.
Pippen just broke through to the inside and scored two points with difficulty. Looking back, Michael Jordan was a step slower in chasing and defending. Alan Houston got rid of the defense and received a pass from Li Youheng on the right elbow to make a mid-range jumper!
Michael Jordan forced his way to the basket on the right side of the block and attracted a three-man defense. On the left wing, Kukic received the pass and hit the iron with a wide-open jumper.
The long rebound just happened to be accepted by Li You, and he accelerated and dashed in the middle with the ball in his right hand.
At the top of the arc, Li You quickly circled the ball behind his back. After switching to his left hand, Li You grabbed half of his body and went straight to the basket against Harper's defense.
Pippen, who retreated quickly, rushed to the paint and took off with Li You, but found that the basketball flew to the rear right. Larry Johnson, who followed up, easily caught the ball and put it down!
At 10:22, Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines couldn't help throwing his fists in celebration, and then loudly reminded the players to retreat quickly.
The hardcore Michael Jordan hit another jumper from the free throw line in the second half of the first quarter.
Kukchi's several vacancies were all hit.
Seeing that the point difference did not shrink, Midu began to force his way to the basket again.
In the last few minutes of the first quarter, Li You also stood on the free throw line. Harper couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and when he switched offense and came to the paint area, he made a clean foul.
At 17:30, at the end of the first quarter, Madison Square Garden cheered again.
"We perfectly controlled the game! Before the Bulls had fully entered the state, we had a double-digit lead."
"Lee's performance must be praised, and he responded in time when the team needed to score!"
Watching such a game, Walter Fraser was so excited that he couldn't stop blowing.
The commentator Mike Brin saw the Bulls were 3 for 0 from outside the three-point line, and added with a smile:
"Coach Jeff Van Gundy's defensive strategy is very successful, the team's execution is also very good, this is a victory for the team!"
Although the game only played one quarter, the New York fans at the scene were already in high spirits, and the Bulls had no power to fight back!
打满首节,7中4,三分线外3中2,罚球2中2,李佑单节砍下12分2篮板3助攻。
As soon as he returned to his seat, Ben Davis of the atmosphere group handed the water bottle and towel to Li You, and said excitedly:
"Cool, Lee! We're going to win tonight! The Bulls are done!"
Everyone in the atmosphere group also booed loudly. When the Knicks led by double digits this season, they never lost a game!
Jeff Van Gundy greeted a few people in the rotation lineup and exhorted excitedly:
"Don't relax, continue to maintain this rhythm of the game, they can't run anymore!"
Starks is also in high spirits at this time, and he will punch hard every time there is a tailwind.
The Knicks rotated step by step, with Chris Childs, Starks, Chris Mills, Larry Johnson and Dudley appearing.
The Bulls also carried out a personnel rotation, with Steve Kerr, Scott Burrell, Buichler, Rodman, and Longley appearing.
Harper, Michael Jordan, and Pippen all played the first quarter, and they are currently sitting on the bench.
The director frequently gave the camera to Maidu, who scored 6 of 2 in the first quarter, 3 of 2 free throws, and scored 6 points. Pippen scored 6 of 2 and also scored 6 points.
The Bulls' rotation lasted less than 3 minutes, and the main lineup returned one after another.
Jeff Van Gundy was the first to get Ewing back, and only got Li You with 2 minutes and 6 seconds left in the second quarter.
At 25:39, the Knicks still led by 14 points.
After resting for half a quarter of the game, Li You took over the ball again after he came on the court, and Michael Jordan, who gradually found his shooting touch, also began to score consecutive points.
Allan Houston can only stalk at this time, moving back and forth with Michael Jordan.
For several consecutive rounds, he ran away from the defense by running without the ball, and hit the shot after receiving the ball. Michael Jordan was playing smoothly at this time.
In this attack, Michael Jordan moved diagonally on the right side near the baseline, and with the help of Kukic's cover, he came to the left elbow of the free throw line.
Kerr on the right wing starts to move early, ready to pass the ball to Mikko.
It's just that the intention of passing the ball was too obvious. After being blocked by Li You, Cole failed to send the ball immediately.
Alan Houston chased up again, and Michael Jordan moved sideways again at this time, and simply came to the top of the arc to respond.
Cole has been guarded by Li You. Seeing that the boss is about to catch the ball at the top of the arc, Cole immediately turns around, protects the ball sideways, and sends a cross pass with his right hand.
Before the basketball was out of his hands, Li You stretched out his left hand and slapped it off.
Although Michael Jordan is in poor physical condition, he is also speeding up behind Li You with his eyes wide open!
In the blink of an eye, the two had already crossed the half court. Seeing that Li You showed no signs of slowing down, they took three big strides in the paint and wanted to dunk the dunk behind them to speed up again.
Then vacated in the paint, jumped high, and Michael Jordan was about to send a big hat!
Grabbing the ball with one hand with his right hand, Li You, who was in the air, made a fake pass and moved the ball behind his back, throwing it to Alan Houston who was following up.
The latter received the ball, completely unguarded, and directly hit a one-handed dunk!
"Wow!!"
The dunk ignited the atmosphere in the arena again, and the cheers grew louder.
After landing, with a smile on his face, Li You nodded his head lightly with his right hand, immediately angering Michael Jordan in front of him.
Michael Jordan, who took a breath, kept shooting in the second quarter, but after taking the initiative to speed up the offensive rhythm, the Knicks' defensive actions became bigger and bigger.
In the offensive round, Michael Jordan originally planned to use the cover to get rid of the defense, but was pulled by Oakley in the paint area, and was quickly chased by Alan Houston.
Breaking through to the inside, Michael Jordan was blocked by Ewing before he had time to put the basket.
The whistle gradually sounded, and Michael Jordan, who had just found some offensive rhythm in the first half of the game, soon began to strike iron again.
Li You was unaffected. Although Cole tried hard to defend, the aggressive screens of Ewing and Oakley always allowed him to easily get rid of the defense.
In the pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, Cole failed to squeeze through the screen in time, and watched Li You make a three-pointer before making an emergency stop.
Kukchi's delay was slow, and Phil Jackson on the sidelines was a little impatient, but at this time he could only encourage loudly
Rodman was blocked by Ewing when he ate a cake under the basket. The Bulls retreated slowly. Li You, who was about to get off, rushed into the paint area, carried Cole and tilted his body with his left hand to pick the basket and succeeded!
Pippen hit a two-pointer, and the Bulls had just retreated to the half court. Ewing succeeded in getting a position at the bottom left of the basket. After receiving the ball, Kukci caused a thug foul.
Jeff Van Gundy didn't take the initiative to ask for a timeout. Seeing that the Knicks' offensive rhythm was getting faster and faster, he simply returned to the bench with a smug smile.
Michael Jordan took a few deep breaths as he hit the free throw, trying to regain some energy.
But in the last few minutes, several shots were banged up
Seeing the Knicks rushing faster and faster, the Bulls couldn't hold back, and in desperation began to make tactical fouls.
"Shhh!!"
Several consecutive rounds were free throws, and the New York fans who felt that they had a chance to win still booed the Bulls wildly.
At the last moment of the half, Li You missed a long three-pointer, and Cole, who was sprinting back and forth desperately to defend, also began to pant.
At 38:54, the Knicks entered the second half with a 16-point lead.
At halftime, in the Knicks locker room, Jeff Van Gundy was still loudly reminding everyone:
"In the second quarter, Michael Jordan scored 4 for 4 and then scored 5 for 1. Our defense worked!"
"Keep this defensive strength and don't give the opponent any chance!"
In the second quarter, Michael, who made consecutive shots, tossed the Knicks' defense again. Fortunately, they led by a big score and everyone was full of energy.
Ewing made 7 of 3 in the half, scored 10 points and 7 rebounds. Although they were all eating cakes and free throws, the gorilla didn't care anymore, and encouraged everyone excitedly:
"There are still two quarters of the game, we can win G1, the opponent can no longer keep up with our rhythm!"
Li You clapped his hands, and everyone cheered, victory was close at hand.
The halftime break did not allow the Bulls to find their hands.
Perhaps it was because of the real overdraft of physical fitness, Michael Jordan still hit the iron in the third quarter.
Under continuous double-teaming, Mikou was forced to complete the shot from beyond the three-point line
The appearance of such a scene made the Knicks fans shout wildly, Michael Jordan couldn't move!
The Knicks had more and more transition attacks, Li You continued to speed up the game, and the Bulls' defense finally collapsed completely.
Pippen, who was emptied, failed to respond from beyond the three-point line. The Bulls' bench was silent, and the atmosphere team also stopped.
19:24 in a single quarter, 57:78 in three quarters, and the last quarter entered garbage time.
Going 7 of 2 in a single quarter and scoring 5 points, Michael Jordan returned to the bench with a straight face, replenished his water, and kept panting.
Phil Jackson wanted to give up the fourth quarter, but Michael Jordan played another 6 minutes and 42 seconds. Seeing that the point difference had not narrowed, he took the atmosphere group.
At Madison Square Garden, the New York fans at the scene began to celebrate the victory of the game. The noise became louder and louder. Walter Fraser in the commentary was completely comfortable and praised loudly:
"Perfect victory, we completely controlled the rhythm of the game!"
"Excellent performances on both ends of the offense and defense. Coach Van Gundy is very well prepared for this game!"
Winning so easily, the commentator Mike Breen also drifted at this time:
"Keep it like this, I believe the Knicks will win the series eventually!"
Fortunately, the two of them were still calm, they didn't have a loan for the championship, they just couldn't stop bragging in the commentary booth.
Li You also breathed a sigh of relief when he was substituted. Without a rain of one point, the Bulls were powerless to chase points.
The Knicks are on the bench, and the atmosphere group has entered a self-satisfied state again. It is also a rare achievement to be able to throw the towel in the conference finals
The last 5 minutes or so passed quickly, and the final buzz sounded. 80:102, the Knicks beat the Bulls and successfully protected the home court!
In the Madison Square Garden arena, the happy New York fans did not intend to let Michael go, and there were endless shouts and curses.
Wearing a towel, Michael Jordan ignored the voices around him and walked towards the player tunnel with a blank expression.
25中10,三分线外2中1,罚球7中6,27分3篮板2助攻1失误,身体状况一般,迈扣依旧拿到了全队的最高分。
The Bulls exited quickly, and MSG interviewed Li You for the first time. The commentator Mike Breen asked with a smile:
"Big victory over the opponent by 22 points, Li, did you expect such a game situation before the game?"
出场36分钟,23中11,三分线外9中5,罚球7中6,33分4篮板7助攻2抢断1失误,李佑拿到全场的最高分。
Having already changed into his training clothes, Li You didn't show a trace of fatigue on his face at this time, and responded with a relaxed expression:
"The opponent has just experienced a 7-game tie-breaker. A big victory is naturally within our expectations."
"The Bulls will definitely make adjustments in the follow-up games, but we are ready."
Walter Fred noticed that Ewing was still throwing his fist in celebration, and seemed very excited, he couldn't help laughing and sighing:
"This is indeed the best opportunity for the Knicks. Everyone doesn't want to miss the championship again."
"."
At the post-match press conference, Li You and Ewing didn't have to answer any questions, and the New York media in the audience turned into idiots and crazily praised their performance.
13 of 6, 6 of 4 free throws, 16 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers. The gorilla didn't score many points. Most of them were free throws from the basket, but no one cared about this.
It seems that recalling the scene of reaching the finals that year, Ewing was in high spirits, but at the same time, he did not let down his vigilance to make random loans, until the ESPN reporter asked:
"Pat! Congratulations on winning G1. After returning from injury, we all noticed that your role in the team has changed. Are you satisfied with your current role?"
The New York media in the audience immediately glared at the bald reporter, Li You on the stage was still smiling, and Ewing replied calmly:
"I never cared about this, and no one in the Knicks cared about it!"
"Now I just want to win the championship. I am very satisfied with the state of the team."
