On the right wing, noticing that everyone on the Bulls team had completed their defensive positions, Li You decelerated and quickly passed the ball to Alan Houston at the top of the arc.

Pulling Ewing to stand at the right elbow of the free throw line, Li You immediately went to the line and cut horizontally.

Steve Kerr could only follow in pursuit, but was caught by Ewing's screen and was a step behind.

Quickly moving to the left wing outside the three-point line, Li You caught the ball and drifted to the left outside the three-point line to shoot a jump shot!

"Whoa!" The three-pointer hit the net!

At 44:51, the point difference widened to 7 points. Steve Kerr stood beside Li You and could only watch Li You raise his arms and smile.

"These screens are fouls! You should see what they do!"

While requesting a timeout, Phil Jackson did not immediately arrange tactics. Instead, he approached the referee and complained loudly.

When the New York fans in the front row saw this scene, they began to spit out fragrance and jeer loudly.

Michael Jordan just walked back to the bench with a grimace, while Pippen was a little embarrassed. There were too many open shots tonight.

"Great job Lee! We're 7 points ahead!"

Assistant coach Thibodeau patted Li You on the shoulder. The coaching staff made the right bet.

Back on the bench, Li You and Oakley fist bumped. The Knicks' recently developed offensive mode, under "tough" cover, allowed Li You to get more opportunities.

This tactic also works with Alan Houston, but Michael Jordan's defense is too strong

Jeff Van Gundy excitedly sent out chicken soup, while on the other side, Phil Jackson quickly replaced Ron Harper.

When the game restarted, what the Bulls coaching staff was worried about still appeared. Pippen struck, Ron Harper did not attack in the first half, and the Knicks began to surround Michael Jordan with three players.

Li You and Larry Johnson caught the ball with their backs in the left block, and Jordan immediately passed the ball to Ron Harper in the left corner.

The latter caught the ball and made an open three-point jumper!

"Bang!" The basketball knocked out of the frame.

The rebound just bounced into Ewing's hands, Li You responded, and everyone in the Knicks team started running wildly forward.

On the right flank, Oakley's tough cover delayed Ron Harper, and Rodman immediately changed defense.

Li You, holding the ball in his right hand, simply accelerated in a straight line and approached the blocking area on the right side. He immediately made a large cross-step and pulled back. He paused slightly with his left hand and took advantage of Rodman's sliding step to quickly change direction with his hips!

Li You, who had lowered his center of gravity, was about to break through Rodman's defense, but a strong force came from his side, and Rodman, who had lost his defensive position, gave him a hard push.

Li You, who was accelerating with all his strength, immediately stumbled, lost his center of gravity, and almost fell directly onto the basketball stand.

Rodman was smiling and wanted to step forward to taunt him, but he didn't expect that Li You, who stood upright, twisted around and swung the ball hard.

"Pah! Ah!"

The basketball hit Rodman directly in the face, causing Hua Da Chong to cry out in pain, subconsciously covering his nose, and in a rage, he wanted to rush forward and punch him twice.

Charles Oakley reacted faster and locked Rodman. Players from both teams rushed forward, and the New York fans at the scene also began to shout excitedly!

"Fake Squid, next time it will be your bird that I hit!"

Li You, who was hugged by the referee, stared and cursed loudly. If he threw himself on the street, he might have a hole in his head!

Michael Jordan pulled the two of them away with a dark face, and Rodman, feeling humiliated, cursed and walked to the bench.

Charles Oakley looked unconcerned and patted Jordan with a smile:

"I swear, you are going to lose tonight!"

Phil Jackson was no longer in the mood to pretend, and told his players to calm down with a straight face.

Rodman had a gash on his lip. He wanted to continue cursing, but when he turned around and saw Michael Jordan with an ugly face, he suddenly became silent.

The two received a flagrant foul, and both sides exchanged free throws. At this time, Madison Square Garden was filled with shouts and curses. The fans could not hold back when they smelled the victory.

From this moment on, the game completely changed, and "iron-blooded" basketball began to come online.

This was the Knicks' favorite game rhythm in the past. Oakley, who only received one foul in the first half, let himself go.

Ron Harper didn't have a good outside touch, and his elbow hurt when he broke through to the basket.

Li You and Larry Johnson cooperated with Alan Houston to constantly block Jordan. The Bulls coaching staff could only watch Ron Harper and Pippen play in the open space.

During the transition attack, Li You also showed off the hidden flying knee he learned from Stockton. As a result, Rodman, who was switching defense in the pick-and-roll, was already on guard, and the two fell to the floor again.

The scene began to get out of control, and the excited Ewing also began to join the melee. Li You was dragged out by Alan Houston, and the two sides twisted into a ball again on the other side.

"Crazy game! We showed great defense and the Bulls started to get angry!"

In the live commentary box, commentator Marv Albert also opened his eyes and told lies, and Spike Lee on the edge of the court even made a chokehold gesture to everyone on the Bulls team.

By the end of the long third quarter, Li You, Oakley, and Larry Johnson all had four fouls, and all the fouls reserved for the first half were used.

At 22:30 in a single quarter and 64:72 after three quarters, the Knicks finally led by 8 points.

"This is the outside attack we are looking forward to, 3 of 7 and 3 of 3 free throws. Lee scored 12 points in this quarter. The consecutive three-pointers are so crucial!"

Commentator John Andaris was affected by the atmosphere and raised his voice.

Under the siege, Michael Jordan shot 4 of 9 and scored 10 points in a single quarter, while Ron Harper made 0 of 3 and Pippen scored 1 of 5. The two scored 4 points together.

In the fourth quarter of the game, there was no trash talk between the two sides and they continued to attack each other.

Under this high-pressure defense, the game turned into a chocolate bar, but the New York fans at the scene became more and more happy, and their cheers resounded throughout the arena.

Ron Harper was replaced again, Steve Kerr came on, and after Pippen continued to play, Michael Jordan stopped passing the ball.

As the game time passed, Michael Jordan also began to shoot three-pointers. On the Knicks' side, Li You began to hold the ball a lot. Ewing continued to pick and roll and completed mid-range jumpers near the paint area.

With 2 minutes and 22 seconds left in the game, Ewing reached the paint area from the low post on the left, against Luke Longley's block, and scored two points!

Madison Square Garden completely exploded, 84:92, and the Bulls were suppressed.

Michael Jordan faced a three-man defense and hesitantly scored 2 points in the paint. Looking back, he simply picked and rolled at the top of the arc. Li You got rid of the defense and successfully shot in the paint while moving!

Li You punched Rodman and roared. The referee hurriedly stepped forward again and separated the two sides immediately.

At the last moment of the game, Michael Jordan still didn't give up, but time was running out.

The final buzzer sounded, 90:98, and the Knicks won the game with difficulty.

Ewing stood on the sidelines, pumping his fists and roaring excitedly. He had once again proved himself.

The sound of sarcasm and abuse resounded throughout the arena. Michael Jordan walked quickly towards the tunnel with his head held high and his face expressionless.

Phil Jackson shook hands with a grinning Jeff Van Gundy.

"Crazy competition, we can definitely challenge the defending champion this year!"

"With 20 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists, 1 steal and 4 turnovers, Lee once again showed his ability as an All-Star point guard!"

"I believe that after this game, no one will question it! Look at the defense he faced, it's unbelievable, he is only 19 years old!"

Commentator Marv Albert looked at Li You who was celebrating with his team and couldn't help but start bragging.

Commentator John Andaris looked at the fans who had been reluctant to leave the field for a long time and said with emotion:

"After losing in the finals, I saw hope again"

When the Knicks returned to the locker room, the adrenaline wore off and fatigue began to set in.

Li You felt sore in many parts of his body. He made 6 of 15 shots, 3 of 8 from beyond the three-point line, and 5 of 6 free throws. Looking at the technical shooting rate of 40%, he rubbed his forehead helplessly.

"McKunk must have been furious. He made 14 of 32 and scored 36 points. Oh! He lost in the end!"

"I can't wait to see what he has to say at the press conference!"

Charles Oakley seemed completely unaffected by this intensity of competition, happily mocking his friends like a normal person.

Ewing was grinning widely, and the atmosphere team was cheering loudly. Seeing such a scene, Li You could only murmur in a low voice:

"MVP? It's indeed a good thing."
