NBA Dynasty Sniper

Chapter 166: Will the league want to kill us?

On the TNT live broadcast, Bill Walton sighed: "Feilong played too decisively and calmly at the critical moment. He was still in the mood to make a fake move."

"If it weren't for that fake action, Jordan and Pippen would probably prevent the ball, at least it can affect the hit rate." Matt said.

"Big heart, super big heart. So now, the Knicks are leading the Bulls by a big score of three to one. It's too difficult for the Bulls to get back." Bill Walton said.

Matt said: "Actually, the Knicks have the Wyvern, especially the Wyvern’s switch to organizing small forwards, giving the Knicks first-class organizational skills and stronger perimeter defense. Its lineup strength has surpassed that of the Bulls. The big score is actually a manifestation of strength."

"In the four games of the series, except for the G3 game that the Bulls won, the other three games have reached critical moments. This shows that the strength of the two teams is very close."

Bill Walton disagrees.

Matt said: "In other words, the strength of the coaches of the two teams is very different. One is the Dynasty coach and the other is the rookie coach. The reason why the Knicks are frequently dragged by the Bulls to the final critical moment is because of its paper. The face strength cannot be fully realized."

Bill Walton nodded and said: "This is indeed the problem. In terms of tactical response, the Knicks are very passive, react slowly, or do not respond at all. The two coaches are not at the same level."

At this time, on the CCTV live broadcast booth, Zhang Yangyi sorted out the data and read: "Jordan made 19 of 36 shots in 46 minutes and 52.8% of the field. This is very high. You must know that the Knicks are extremely defensive against him. Three-person double-teams, or even four-person double-teams.

In addition, he made 2 of 5 three-pointers, 15 of 16 free throws, 55 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks, 4 turnovers, and 4 fouls. Once again, he scored 50+ points in the playoffs. The offensive firepower was terrible. "

Sun Zhenping went on to say: "Feilong also played 46 minutes, 13 of 22 shots, close to a terrifying 60% of his field goals, 1 of 3 pointers, 15 of 17 free throws, 42 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists, 6 steals and 4 blocks. 3 turnovers and 4 fouls."

Zhang Liangxi said, "It's only 5*5 short of one block, and one assist is a triple-double. What a pity! If you score in overtime, both of these statistics may be played."

Sun Zhenping smiled: "However, Zhao Dong scored his highest postseason score with 42 points, which is only 8 points away from 50+, which is a pity. His highest score in the previous playoffs was 41 points. The Magic’s first round of the G3 series was played out."

Zhang Liangyi laughed and said: "Tonight, Zhao Dong played too well to change the dilemma of the previous game. It is precisely because the Knicks have increased the fast break and the defensive counterattack is also good. His efficiency is very high. The Bulls play against him. The ultimate defense is often impossible to form."

"It seems that Van Gundy still has a hand." Sun Zhenping smiled.

"He is good at defending and playing defensive counterattack tactics is his skill." Zhang Fangyi laughed.

"Today's score is too concentrated. The Bulls have only 88 points, but Jordan scored 55 points alone, accounting for 62.5% of the team. This is terrible."

Sun Zhenping looked shocked.

"This is still shot in a double team. His state tonight is really brave. He can't prevent it at all. The more he defends, the more accurate he is." Zhang Yangfang sighed and said with a smile:

"But Zhao Dong is not bad, scoring 46% of the team. It can be said that the defense of both sides was actually unsuccessful because they did not limit the scoring of Jordan and Zhao Dong. This shows how strong their offensive ability is. "

Zhao Dong accepted an interview at the scene.

"Flying dragon, win the G4 game. How many games do you think the Knicks need to solve the Bulls?" asked the team reporter Thomas.

Zhao Dongdao: "Okley doesn't know if we can come back after the game. We need to make some psychological preparations. This is very likely to happen. We will not talk about the issue of eliminating the Bulls now, because we are eliminating the Bulls is a foregone conclusion."

"That is to say, you can hit G6 at most?" Thomas asked.

"Why can't it be a G5 battle?" Zhao Dong smiled.

"Flying Dragon, you scored a record 47 points in the playoffs tonight. Free throws accounted for 34%, fast break points accounted for 36, and positional scoring only accounted for 30%, while your positional scoring in previous playoffs accounted for 60%. % Above, is this the reason for winning the Bulls tonight?" An Agence France-Presse reporter asked.

"Of course, we have developed good offensive tactics. This is the basis for us to win the game." Zhao Dong nodded and laughed.

Van Gundy has limited abilities, but the defensive counterattack tactics are still good and right. He still recognizes the G4 offensive tactics.

Without this tactic, under the extreme defense of the Bulls, he would never have such a good performance tonight.

Thinking of this, he also admires Jordan very much, that guy can actually score 55 points under extreme defense, and his shooting percentage is not much lower than his.

If the Bulls' inside line is stronger, or the Knicks do not have Ewing, the Knicks should not be able to beat the Bulls. His current offensive firepower still can't match Jordan.

"Flying dragon, tonight is your third lore of the Bulls, and the second lore of the Bulls in the Eastern Conference Finals series. What do you most want to say to Jordan?" a New York reporter asked.

"Jordan, I will kill you again." Zhao Dong said.

"furious!

Amid the strange cries of New York and neutral reporters, local reporters yelled in dissatisfaction.

After finishing the on-site interview, Zhao Dong and his teammates sent away Lindsay and his wife first.

Lindsay and his wife returned to the hotel together, a car arranged by the Knicks management.

From before and after getting in the car, more than a dozen wives and girlfriends have been talking about the game enthusiastically.

Lindsay was listening all the time, very quiet, and did not speak much.

These wives are of course very curious about Lindsay, but Lindsay’s temperament and appearance make them feel a great sense of distance, not very close, so they rarely talk to her, and no one sits with her. .

But behind them, they didn't talk about Lindsay less. After all, this is Zhao Dong's girlfriend. As for whether it is not, they think so anyway.

Oakley's wife Matali couldn't hold back this time. She sat on the opposite side of the aisle and said with a grin: "Miss Lindsay, the flying dragon played so well today!"

"Martaly, thank you for your appreciation. Flying Dragon is indeed the best, he will be stronger than Jordan in the future." Lindsay smiled.

After catching up with the conversation, Matari wanted to ask the gossip she had always wanted to know, and that was whether Lindsay was Feilong's girlfriend or not.

Because up to now, the media has not photographed any intimacy between two people, at most holding hands, so the media believes that the two have not yet reached that point.

But looking at Lindsay like a princess, the calm and pure look in her eyes made her speak to her lips and swallowed again.

At the Bulls press conference, reporters surged, and one question after another was thrown out.

The Bulls are one to three behind, and elimination is imminent. Whether it is the management, the coaching team, or Jordan, the pressure is very high.

From last season's 72 regular season victories, winning the championship, and now the elimination is imminent, the finals may not be able to make it, a team with the same lineup, the contrast is too strong.

"Coach Jackson, is the team still confident to pull it back?" a reporter asked.

Phil Jackson was silent for a while and then said: "We are still confident of getting back to the situation. In history, 4 teams have comebacks five times after falling behind by one to three. Among them, the Celtics played twice. In this case, a turnaround was achieved.

In 1968, the Celtics fell behind the Philadelphia numbers one to three in the Eastern Conference finals, but in the end Bill Russell led the team to defeat Wilt Chamberlain in the tie-breaker.

In 1979, the Bullets made a big comeback in the Eastern Conference Finals, defeating the Spurs (then in the Eastern Conference).

In the 1981 Eastern Conference, the second-year Larry Bird led the Celtics and achieved a major comeback in a one-to-three situation.

Five major comebacks were achieved in a one-to-three situation, and three of them occurred in the Eastern Conference. Then I believe that there will be a fourth major comeback after the Eastern Conference.

At the same time, I also believe that Michael Jordan should also be able to lead our Bulls to achieve a super comeback. "

"Michael, are you confident of achieving a big turnaround?" The reporter immediately asked Jordan's head.

"No doubt." Jordan replied very briefly.

Compared with the dull and tense atmosphere here, the Knicks press conference has a very good atmosphere and a pleasant atmosphere.

On the morning of the 27th, the New York media began to hype the victory.

"Jordan, I will still kill you!"

The New York Times made a big headline report with this headline.

But today, many people's minds are not on the media, because at nine o'clock, the league officially announced a number of personal honors.

The best rookie team, Zhao Dong ranked first team, the other four are Marbury, Iverson, Raheem, Antoine Walker.

The second team is Kobe and Ray Allen, Corey, Knight, and Maloney.

In addition, Knicks substitute player John Starks won the honor of best sixth man.

The rookie coach Van Gundy took the **** luck and won the honor of the best coach.

But this is not a hard honor, and the best lineup announced at the same time is the most important honor that really attracts attention.

However, the official announcement today only announced the list of the best defensive team two and the best two and three teams, the best team and the best defensive team were not announced.

Best Defensive Second Team: Mucci Blaylock, Jr. Anthony Mason, Hakim Olajuwon, John Stockton, Zhao Dong.

"Wape, really got me into the second round?"

Zhao Dong saw his name in the second best defensive team and wanted to tear the newspaper in his hand.

"Feilong, you are Chinese, and the media reporters will not favor you. It will not be easy to enter a rookie season," Oakley said.

"It's not against me, it's against me. I should enter the double one." Zhao Dongqi said.

Oakley chuckled twice and pointed to the newspaper: "Here, the best second team also has you. Be contented, the rookie season has entered the double second team."

"I entered the losing draft of the All-Star starting in my first rookie season. What's so rare about the double second team?" Zhao Dong said proudly.

He took a look, and the remaining four of the best second team were Big Dream, Glen Rice, Payton, and Mickey Richmond.

The best three teams are Pippen, O'Neal, Karl Malone, Anfini Hardaway and Stockton.

"Charles, Patrick is sure for a while." Zhao Dong smiled.

"Of course. Let's go, let's find him, and enter again for a while. This is a treat. He should also enter for the last time, and he needs a treat." Oakley laughed.

When Ewing used to be there, the room was full of people. Van Gundy and Thibodeau were both here to congratulate him.

Ewing laughed so much that he couldn't close his mouth together. For the second time in his life, he entered the best round. With the prospect of winning this year, he was so happy.

But at this time received a bad news, the league officially announced that Oakley banned one game and could not participate in the G5 battle.

"I think the league is balancing, weakening our strength, and not letting us eliminate the Bulls so quickly." John Starks dissatisfied.

"Not only Charles is suspended, I think we definitely have no home whistle in the G5 game, maybe we will be biased towards the Bulls." Larry Johnson said.

"Knocked out the Bulls, without Jordan, the league has lost a lot." Alan Houston said.

"You see, will the league want to kill us and let the Bulls enter the finals?" John Starks guessed.

"Sheet, it's really possible." Oakley scolded.

When everyone thought about it, they thought it was possible.

Jordan is the face of the league. It depends on him that the league can develop to this day. If the Bulls can't make the finals, how much will the ratings of the finals decline? How much will the alliance lose?

Zhao Dong didn't think it was possible, but very possible, but he saw that the emotions of his teammates were affected. This was not possible, so he immediately shouted:

"Everything is just our guess, this is not true. What we have to do now is to prepare for the G5 battle and defeat the Bulls with our hard power. Even if the league wants to kill us, we have to fight with all our strength and let their The plan is frustrated, we have the strength to eliminate the Bulls."

"Yes, you can't let them do what they want." John Stackton roared.

"Flying Dragon is right, we do ours, don't be affected by these..." Van Gundy shouted at this time.

With the efforts of the coaching staff and Zhao Dong, the mood of the Knicks players has not been greatly affected.

At noon, the Knicks returned to New York and were warmly welcomed by Knicks fans.

Zhao Dong paid attention to it. At least half of the fans wearing his No. 46 jersey accounted for more than half. His position in New York has been completely stabilized. As long as he wins this year's championship, he will become the most famous in the history of the Knicks. One of the stars.

Almost at the same time, the Bull's special plane also arrived in New York.

Zhao Dong did not take the team's bus to leave, but waited at the airport for Lindsay's plane, and then the two left together.

Being with Lindsay gave him the same feeling as his family, especially relaxed. In the fierce playoffs, it is very important to relax yourself, so the two made an appointment to cook dinner together and watch the game.

"Flying dragon, do you want the Jazz to enter the finals or Mosaic to the finals?"

After dinner, the two lay on the sofa and watched the Western Conference G5 match, Lindsay asked.

"Well, they are all strong, but I hope it's a mosaic." Zhao Dong smiled.

"why?"

"Because I don't want to see that guy Karl Malone enter the Western Conference Finals."

"Puff!"

"Avel, do you think I can win the championship this year?"

"Sure!"

"I think so. What about the Most Valuable Player of the Finals, is that also me?"

"Uh-huh."

"By the way, Ringo Wells has received invitations from some fashion magazines. They want us to shoot the covers of the magazines. Do you want to do it? They are all first-class fashion magazines."

Lindsay tilted his head and looked at Zhao Dong and asked, "Do you want me to take pictures with you?"

Zhao Dong knew that Lindsay didn't want to be famous, so he smiled and said, "If you don't want to shoot, then don't shoot."

"Um."

...

In the end, the result of this game was the Jazz's victory, leading Mosaic with a big score of three to two.

May 28, the day of the Eastern Finals G5 battle.

In the morning, Zhao Dong came to the team and participated in the team's tactical meeting.

Van Gundy still advocates defensive counterattack + fast break tactics, and other people have no better way, so it is settled.

On the other side, the bull also held a tactical meeting in the hotel.

Phil Jackson's tactical basis is the superstar tactics, which is also the basis of the triangle system.

But he knows that the Bulls lineup actually lacks a corner on the offensive end, that is, the low post does not have the ability to attract double-teams.

Although Rodman is good, he has little offensive ability.

In the series, Rodman is often emptied by Oakley and then double-teamed Jordan.

In other words, facing the extreme defense of the Knicks, it is difficult for the Bulls to use the triangle tactics to create singles opportunities for Jordan.

However, Jordan's high-efficiency performance in the G4 game made him feel relieved. The lineup was flawed, but the offensive end was okay. The focus is on the defensive end and how to limit Zhao Dong's problem.

"First, when switching between offense and defense, we must stop the Knicks from sending fast."

"Second, after the Knicks grabbed the backcourt rebound, they must stop the quick pass."

"Third, Pippen must keep up with the Flying Dragon, don't let him receive the ball in the fast break, and create opportunities for teammates to return to defense. Then we will continue to double-team the Flying Dragon in the positional battle."

"Fourth ~www.novelmt.com~ If we can't limit the Flying Dragon, then we limit his teammates. He has a dislocation advantage in the third position, but his teammates do not have any other positions. We can defend against this. ."

"Fifth, strengthen the defense against Ewing. Although we don't have extra strength to double-team him, we try to cut off the connection between him and the dragon..."

"Sixth, Oakley is suspended. Their defense and rebounding are going to drop by a notch. We have to seize this opportunity."

"Seventh, we are likely to get some extra treatment in the away game. The league will not want to see us eliminated in the G5 game. Playing seven games in the Eastern Conference finals and entering the finals is what the league wants to see most. Benefits This is the priority of the alliance."

"Eighth, continue to strengthen the defense against the flying dragon. Don't be afraid of fouls. If you lose the G5 game, there will be no future. If you want to foul, there will be no chance."

...

Even Jordan’s Law was used, and Phil Jackson had no other good way to defend Zhao Dong, he could only dig out the details, not letting go of every detail.
