"The Knicks backcourt held up!"

Dick Stockton boasted about the Knicks' performance. Seeing that his partner next to him still had something to say, he immediately spoke again:

"We can first predict how the second half of the game will go."

"Note that the Bulls have grabbed 29 rebounds at halftime, including 8 offensive rebounds! The Knicks must solve the rebounding problem."

"."

In the locker room, Jeff Van Gundy didn't even mention tactical arrangements at this time, and kept giving out chicken soup.

Of course he knew that the veteran Buck Williams couldn't stand it anymore, but on the bench, there was only the older Herb Williams. As for the newbie McCarty, he had long been forgotten by the bald young coach.

"If we persist for another 24 minutes, we can gain a valuable away victory!"

"Think about it, if we win this game and return to New York, we can protect our home court and get the match point!"

Jeff Van Gundy took off his jacket and encouraged everyone loudly, and the atmosphere team also followed suit:

"Michael Jordan missed the mark, our defense worked!"

The pie he drew still worked, Oakley cheered up completely, and the old guy also started to cheer himself up:

"We will win the game!"

Li You watched his teammates regain their strength and felt the effect of chicken soup.

Sometimes it is useless to talk about tactics. At this time, you have to "Let's go!"

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the United Center went wild. Bulls fans could not bear the home team falling behind, and they booed wildly at the beginning of the game.

The Knicks took the lead in attacking, and Li You was not polite. He quickly moved across the half court, and at the top of the arc, Buck Williams faked a screen and passed down.

Langley cooperated with Harper to delay Li You, who was holding the ball with his left hand to accelerate the breakthrough. The two were surrounded, and Li You made a drifting fadeaway jumper in the left block.

At this time, Larry Johnson, Oakley, and Buck Williams all rushed into the paint area, plus Pippen and Rodman. The basketball knocked out of the basket, and everyone below rushed to grab it!

In the end, Rodman grabbed two, protected the backboard, and posed for a photo, causing the fans in the front row to cheer loudly.

The Knicks' tactics are getting simpler and simpler, shoot and grab!

In the defensive round, several players on the outside began to double-team Michael Jordan. As long as he caught the ball in the blocking area, he would be directly surrounded within 2 seconds.

Michael Jordan continued to hit the ball and protected the rebound, and the Knicks launched a transition attack. After halftime, Li You was guarded by Harper and converted to a three-pointer.

The pace of the game became faster and faster, and the scores of both sides began to rise slowly. In less than three minutes, Phil Jackson immediately requested a timeout.

Bringing on Bison Dele, taking the initiative to lower the height, and replacing Longley, who couldn't keep up with the rhythm, the Bulls relied on highly mobile defense to slow down the pace of the game.

Jeff Van Gundy naturally saw that something was wrong, and the double team paid the price. Pippen scored two three-pointers in a row, causing the United Center to explode in an instant, and the Knicks were forced to request a timeout.

"oh!!"

The Bulls fans at the scene cheered loudly. After the timeout, the Knicks began to lose rebounds again, and the transition offense was completely gone.

Buck Williams was forced to leave the game and was replaced by veteran Herb Williams. The situation still did not improve, and Jeff Van Gundy jumped in a hurry.

With 4 minutes and 46 seconds left in the third quarter, Pippen's cross pass was intercepted by Li You. The Knicks once again launched a transition attack. Li You quickly counterattacked and succeeded in an easy layup.

As the game progressed, Rodman also made a mistake, and then the Knicks turned into a transition attack. Alan Houston stood on the free throw line.

Two easy scores finally relieved some of the scoring pressure, but as Michael Jordan frequently hit the basket, the Knicks were still able to recover some points difference from the Bulls.

At 17:23 in a single quarter, after three quarters, it was 65:61, and the point difference was only 4 points.

Li You, like Michael Jordan, was substituted with one minute left in the third quarter:

"Mai Dun is tired and has missed free throws. He can't stand it anymore. Just hold on for a while longer!"

After hearing Li You's words, Alan Houston nodded with eyes wide open. He put in a lot of energy on the defensive end. In the third quarter of the game, he became more and more aggressive. At this time, he could only use the mental victory method.

In the last quarter of the game, the Knicks were not allowed to change the backcourt, and Li You and Alan Houston had to rest.

Michael Jordan didn't come on the court right away. We are all human beings and our physical abilities have limits.

Seeing the hope of reversing the game, the Bulls fans at the United Center began to shout loudly again.

Jeff Van Gundy finally made the right choice. With the team leading, Starks, who was full of energy, helped the Knicks score consecutive points in the last quarter.

With 9 minutes and 01 seconds left in the game, Michael Jordan returned to the court and helped the Bulls score points.

With Longley at the free throw line, Jeff Van Gundy also returned to the lineup.

Phil Jackson took advantage of this opportunity and replaced Longley, who made two free throws, and brought on Kuchi, once again taking the initiative to make the lineup smaller.

72:68, the point difference is still 4 points.

In the last quarter of the game, both sides slowed down. For several consecutive rounds, it was hard to beat again. Seeing that his teammates really couldn't make a shot, Michael Jordan, who had slowed down for a few minutes, started to turn his back for the ball again.

Alan Houston quickly returned to defense after hitting the ball. At this time, he could no longer withstand Michael Jordan's post-up play. He caught the ball and hit him directly, and was directly passed.

Seeing Michael Jordan rush into the paint, Oakley immediately rushed forward and hit a big block in the face.

The ball didn't hit the ball at all. After the dunk hit the ground, he covered his nose and slapped his face all over.

"Shhh!!"

Seeing the referee whistle two free throws, the boos immediately turned into yelling.

Seeing Michael Jordan hit one of two free throws, the Knicks bench was about to cheer, but the rebound was tipped into the basket by Rodman.

At 72:71, the United Center was erupting again. Bulls fans watched Rodman raise his hands under the basket and immediately cheered loudly.

If he lost another rebound, Jeff Van Gundy could only loudly remind his players to focus.

Li You was playing hard in the third quarter, and returned to the court in the fourth quarter, but his touch was not as good as before. Harper was still hanging by his side, and the old guy was basically the same as him.

Quickly receiving the baseline ball, Harper continued to lead the defense. Li You quickly circled the ball behind his back, switched to his right hand and accelerated with all his strength.

"Defense!Defense!Defense!"

The Bulls fans at the scene were shouting more and more energetically, and the team was about to take the lead.

Arriving at the top of the arc, Harper took a small step back, while Li You waved his hand, signaling everyone to pull away and sink to the bottom line.

At the final moment of the game, there was no need for any complicated tactics. Li You, holding the ball in his right hand, jumped and dribbled, and then suddenly lowered his center of gravity. While his body swayed to the right, he drastically changed direction in front of him.

After switching to his left hand, he immediately accelerated with all his strength. Harper was already prepared and followed Li You by quickly sliding to the right and back. The old guy had one step left in defense, waiting for Li You to break through.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them reached the right elbow area of ​​the free throw line. Li You suddenly stopped and quickly changed direction.

He switched to his right hand and immediately dribbled the ball behind his back. While Harper was still sliding backwards, Li You immediately put the ball together and quickly shot a jump shot from the free throw line!

"Whoa!" A solid hit from mid-range!

"Unreasonable goal! Lee once again helped the Knicks widen the point difference!"

The defensive cheers stopped abruptly, and Dick Stockton shouted excitedly in the commentary box.

"Shhh!!"

Seeing Li You, who was back on defense, raising his index finger with his left hand, the fans at the scene booed and vomited the fragrance.

74:71, everyone in the Knicks team knows that in the next round, it will definitely be Michael Jordan who responds.

Sure enough, Pippen sent a pass from the left block, and Larry Johnson just slipped to catch up. Michael Jordan leaned on Alan Houston, turned around immediately after receiving the ball, and completed a fadeaway jumper!

"Shua!" The response ball was scored!

74:73, the Bulls responded quickly.

He took a lot of shots and finally evoked Michael Jordan's touch. After scoring the goal, McDuck glared at the roaring atmosphere on the Knicks bench.

The Bulls once again strengthened their defense, and Harper stuck to the defense. Li You quickly handed over the ball after halftime, and Larry Johnson connected at the top of the arc. Afterwards, he tried several screens but failed to get rid of the defense.

Oakley simply waved his hand, signaling for everyone to throw it away and grab it again. As a result, in this attack, Li You broke through to the left side near the baseline and made an emergency stop jump shot.

There was another fierce grab under the basket, and Kukchi finally protected the rebound.

With such a simple and crude tactic, the Bulls had no idea what to do. Li You shot from a position close to the basket, and when the iron was struck, the rebound would not bounce too far.

This leaves the Bulls with no choice but to scramble mindlessly. At the critical moment, as long as Li You doesn't make mistakes, the Knicks will not make mistakes and the ball is in one person's hands.

Surrounded by three people, Michael Jordan's response ball failed to score. Phil Jackson also stood on the sidelines at this time, shouting loudly, indicating that tactics should be used.

In the final minutes, it became increasingly difficult for the Knicks to score, relying on Oakley and Larry Johnson's free throws to slowly increase their points.

The old guy worked hard to grab offensive rebounds, and the defensive end also spared no effort to protect the rebounds.

But Kukic's tip-in and Pippen's breakthrough still allowed the Bulls to hold on to the score.

78:77, with 56 seconds left in the game, the fans in the front row stood up, and the Bulls fans at the scene shouted in unison:

"Defense!Defense!Defense!"

Quickly dribbling the ball past halftime, Li You did not attack, but continued to control the time. The crowd on the sidelines covered their mouths nervously. After scoring, the Knicks might win the game.

In the last few rounds, Harper did not lead the defense. At halftime, Michael Jordan took the initiative to switch defenses. At the end of the game, Michael Jordan was about to strike hard.

As the game time passed, everyone on the field spread out, the fans shouted excitedly, and Michael Jordan lowered his body weight and stared at Li You's movements.

There were 13 seconds left in the attack time. Li You, who was holding the ball in his left hand, suddenly leaned forward and accelerated, approaching the three-point line. He quickly crossed and pulled back. The moment he switched to his right hand, he dribbled the ball behind his back twice very quickly.

Michael Jordan was shaken and moved away. Li You, who had finished dribbling the ball behind his back, suddenly blasted the ball on the spot, retrieved the ball with his right hand, and immediately turned around and accelerated.
