Chapter 304 303: Rodman's strategy, Shay will never be absent(4/5)
Seeing that Shay was about to stop for a jumper, Pippen immediately raised his hand to interfere.
But Shay just made a fake move to pray to Buddha. Instead of joining the ball, he slapped the ball to the right and passed Pippen!
Harper stepped up to defend, and Shea took off directly with his luck. Against Harper's defense, he hit a drift shot.
"Go ahead!
Shay would never let go of this opportunity, he would never let go of this opportunity!
In the last 1 minute and 10 seconds of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers, under the leadership of Shea, took the lead!
He will never let anyone stop him from becoming a god!"
The magician's adrenaline was soaring, and Shay really did not waste Kukoc's efforts!
Zen Master immediately paused the game. He hated this feeling.
This feeling of winning a whole game, only to be overtaken at the last moment.
During this timeout, Jackson did not spend much time on the offensive end.
Instead, he talked a lot about the defensive end.
If the next attack fails, then the next defense must be done well.
That will be the Bulls' last hope.
As a result, during the attack after returning from the timeout, Jordan actually missed!
This time, Shea defended Jordan so much that he couldn't get rid of the defense and couldn't open up any space.
breakthrough?
Rodman was waiting with a smile.
Pass the ball?
Damn the Europeans just missed a great opportunity!
Therefore, Jordan chose to believe in himself.
But under Shea's tight defense, Jordan missed the fateful shot.
In front of Shay, God seemed to have become a mortal.
In front of Shay, Jordan no longer seems to be omnipotent at critical moments.
Mutombo firmly grabbed the rebound, and Ewing on the bench jumped with excitement.
The game is now completely under the control of the Lakers!
"Michael Jordan also missed! The Bulls' fatal two shots!
Shay, he walked towards the Bulls half court unhurriedly. Coach Rick Carlisle, as always, did not pause at critical moments, and he did not intend to give Jackson a chance to defend!"
After the magician finished speaking, he looked at the Zen master.
You can't set up a defense now, can you?
But the Zen master was confident.
He knew that Carlisle would not take timeouts at critical moments. If the unused timeouts could be sold to other coaches, Carlisle's annual salary would probably surpass Shay's.
Therefore, he just chose to arrange defensive tactics in advance.
Shay faced Pippen, this veteran sandbag, with an extremely calm attitude.
They were doing it as calmly as an old couple who had been married for ten years, and it was hard to even feel any disturbance in their hearts.
Shay controls time and consumes as much as possible.
In the last 6 seconds of the 24-second attack time, Shay took a step to the left, but disappeared in the next second.
Jordan was also very helpless when he saw this scene.
Let alone Pippen, even he himself might not be able to defend against it.
Because Shay used that damn thing again, changing direction without slowing down as if cheating!
Shay completely shook Pippen away, stopped suddenly, and prepared for an open jumper.
What is the probability of scoring this goal? Not to say 100%, but at least 90%.
Everyone around the world knows that Shay, the key killer, never shows mercy when faced with such opportunities.
He is terrifyingly cold-blooded!
The Zen Master was also shocked, but when he had just deployed his defense, he was ready for the worst.
The team can handle this situation!
So, just when Shea was about to take action, the referee suddenly blew the whistle.
Looking closely, Mutombo was knocked to the ground by Sabonis.
Bulls defensive foul, Mutombo will make two free throws!
That's right, Mutombo made a free throw!
Shay immediately realized what was happening. This was a fucking shark-killing tactic!
It's 1997 now, and the shark-killing tactic is not yet popular, so the league has not modified the rules specifically for this.
According to the current rules, if there is a foul against a player without the ball in the last 2 minutes, the player without the ball will only receive two ordinary free throws, and will not receive the treatment of two free throws and one throw in the future.
Just saw Shea get a chance, the Bulls would rather foul Mutombo on purpose and let Mutombo take a free throw than let Shea shoot!
Zen Master's move caught the Lakers off guard!
Although the foul will send Mutombo to the free throw line, does Shea have a higher hit rate in the open mid-range shot, or does Mutombo have a higher probability of hitting two free throws?
Shay is indeed a key killer, and the best way to deal with such a person is to prevent him from taking action at critical moments!
All the Lakers fans in the audience booed, and Master Zen breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had just arranged everything in advance.
Now, even if Mutombo makes two free throws, the Bulls still have time to implement a three-point strategy.
If Mutombo makes one of two free throws, the Bulls can either choose to score two points to save their life, or they can choose to score a three-pointer to kill the game.
And if Mutombo misses two free throws directly.
Then this foul is so worth it!
Mutombo also cursed and walked to the free throw line. He made the first free throw steadily and the Lakers led to 2 points.
But the Zen master doesn’t feel at a loss, the Bulls still have a chance!
During the second penalty, Mutombo felt that his palms were all sweaty and the ball seemed to have become slippery.
This defensive idiot didn't expect that he would be pushed to the offensive end at the critical moment.
Of course he knows the weight of this game and what this free throw means.
For a time, all the pressure was on Mutombo. Under the heavy pressure, Africa Mountain's second free throw hit the neck of the basket directly and missed the target!
"Fuck" Mutombo cursed secretly. If he loses today's game, he will undoubtedly be the sinner!
Jackson proudly waited for the player to grab the rebound so he could immediately call a timeout.
Jordan also breathed a sigh of relief, allowing the Lakers to turn two points into one. This time the defense was relatively successful, and the team once again saw the hope of winning.
But!
Chicagoans just saw a glimmer of victory, but it was ruthlessly blocked by a big hand!
At the moment when the basketball bounced off the rim, Dennis Rodman pushed away the exhausted European magician and got stuck in a favorable position. Then, he jumped up hard and steadily took off the backboard with both hands!
Rodman got his 20th rebound of the game! And, he got his 11th offensive rebound in a Finals record!
Seeing this scene, countless Lakers fans and Ewing on the bench were deeply moved.
There were several critical moments last season because Ewing was exhausted and Clifford Robinson was not good at protecting rebounds.
Therefore, let the Bulls rely on offensive rebounds and secondary attacks to take advantage again and again.
But this season.
Damn those Chicago bastards, it’s time for you to experience losing rebounds at critical moments!
The moment he caught the rebound, Rodman didn't think about anything else.
He just remembered the happy times in Detroit and the Pistons falling apart after being defeated by Jordan.
The Pistons were a big family to Rodman, and Jordan destroyed his family.
Rodman has been holding his breath from the early 1990s to the late 1990s now.
At this moment, there is no need to hold it back anymore!
Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Now, it’s time for the Bulls to disband!
Michael Jordan, die!
After grabbing the rebound, Rodman immediately found his big brother, the No. 23 wearing the gold jersey.
