Chapter 225: Finals Opening


The seventh game of the Western Conference Finals was No. 5, and the first game of the Finals was set at No. 9.
The Jazz returned from the triumph had a few days to repair in the base camp, and the final battle that was about to start was already full of storms.
On one side is the Jazz Regiment with a sudden rise and strong momentum, and on the other side is Jordan's heaviest bull with two consecutive championships. Whether the Jazz is crowned or the Bulls are defending, no one can say.
However...After the victory in the Western Conference, Li Shengli's relationship with the two older brothers Malone and Stockton rose sharply. Coupled with Li Shengli's loyal supporter Croti and the tyrannical Tyrone Corbin, the entire Jazz Legion Cooperate with the increasingly stable.
You need to know that getting along with each other always requires time to be polished. Once you are too enthusiastic, you will always feel a sense of discomfort, and the time of half a season is just good enough for teammates. Become a friend!
Although Limas’ relationship was good before, it was not good enough to wear a pair of trousers. Prior to this, Malone and Stockton wore a pair of trousers, and now... Li Shengli joined them. A little, but the victory is warm.
...
"After the finals, what are you going to do?"
On the afternoon of the 7th, the Jazz rushed to Chicago, rented a venue to train and prepare for the battle, and while taking a break, Malone lay on the sidelines and asked Li Shengli and Stockton next to him.
"Take a vacation, it's hard to wait until the offseason!" Stockton also lay on the floor.
This season, Malone and Stockton have played 82 games, with an average of 38 minutes per game and an average of 35 minutes per game. It can be said that every moment... either on the road to the away game, or training at home. Prepare for war.
Success is not accidental. Efforts are equally critical. And finally, after a long season, it is also appropriate to relax on vacation, because the body is the basis for these players to eat mixed meals.
But for now, the most important thing is for the Jazz to win the championship, and the offseason is like a summer vacation for students... There are three good student summer vacations and a summer vacation without a certificate. That would be two concepts.
"Li, how about you?"
"Me?" Li Shengli also lay down together and replied: "I am different from you. I want to go back to my country and go home. Seriously, I haven't been back for a long time!"
I thought that when Li Shengli couldn't even eat a meal, the air ticket back to China was a luxury. Now, although he has made a lot of money, the tight schedule makes it difficult for him to get out. Of course, he joined the NBA in the first offseason. There will be the idea of ​​returning home.
"Don't talk about this. The finals haven't been played yet. We'll discuss the offseason arrangements here. Are you planning to be swept by the Bulls 4:0 and get off work early?" Li Shengli quipped.
Get off work early?
How can it be!
Malone immediately sat up: "Fart, John and I finally made a finals. How could we be swept? If we swept, we swept the Bulls. I swear... I won't wash my feet without taking the championship!"
Don't take the championship without washing feet?
Are you punishing yourself or poisoning your teammates?
Stockton listened crazy, and really wanted an old punch to turn the goods over, and Li Shengli was already accustomed to Ma Long's rumors, and gradually entered a relationship circle... The more familiar the more the more the more, the more the more the more familiar!
"Don't be too enemies, you still think about Michael Jordan, this guy..." Stockton shook his head.
Speaking of it, it's not just the Jazz, but for any team that comes across the Bulls, Jordan's existence will never be an issue that can't be circumvented.
"Relax, we must be afraid of this guy before, but now we have this kid, what else do you need to worry about?" Ma Long mouthed at Li Shengli, "The outside line locked him, the inside line could not come in, I After smashing Pippen's ass, the bull is half!"
"Just so easy?"
"Not as complicated as you think!"
Brother San glanced at each other, although Ma Long said a little rough, but it is indeed the truth.
However... the ideal is full, the reality is skinny, there is no stupid team in the league, everyone knows against Jordan, but one-on-one can defend him alone, let alone the Jazz can not find a few people in the league. .
"Don't talk about this, hurry up and train!"
...
Two days passed quickly.
The training intensity of the Jazz is relatively low. The final battle is coming, mainly to maintain the competitive state. On the 9th night, the first game of the finals of the season finally opened.
According to the home and away arrangements for the finals, 7 wins and 4 wins to win, according to 2-3-2, and the Bulls' regular season record is better than the Jazz, so the first two home are the Bulls.
Before the competition, the Chicago Stadium was full of people. Although the United Center Stadium was built, it was not put into use, so the game was still placed on the old home of the Bulls.
...
Bulls starting lineup: center Bill Cartwright, power forward Scotty Pippen, power forward Horeth Grant, point guard B.J. Armstrong, shooting guard Michael Jordan.
Speaking of which, the Bulls are the weakest in the center position.
Starting center Bill Cartwright, although it was the scoring of the 79-year draft, is a senior player. The competitive state is no longer the same. The average 5.6 points +3.7 rebounds is a bit chilly, and the victory against Lee is really a bull. The helplessness of coach Phil Jackson.
What kind of monster is Li Shengli?
After a season of hard work, the entire league has a clear understanding, but Phil Jackson is not a move. Fortunately, the Bulls’ offense is not in the center position. I can only hope that veteran Bill can play a trace of waste heat to create some victory for Li Shengli. trouble.
It is worth mentioning that the Bulls' triangle offense system.
Everyone knows that the Bulls play a triangle offense, and the essence of the triangle offense is to... help Jordan, a superstar, to create a one-on-one singles opportunity and maximize his personal strength.
To put it simply, it is 122, Jordan is holding the ball at the top of the arc, and the two sides stand, pulling away from each other to form a triangle. When finishing, they rely on three corners to attack, and the other two swim away. Split the ball to the weak side of the defense, play more and play less, and leave it to Jordan to kill all without choosing a double.
Simple and crude, eating superstars!
The super giant without solution singles is the basis for the existence of the triangle offense system.
Just watch this scene...
On the Bulls side, Jordan has a lot of room to play. Similarly, Pippen also does not contain the existence of immortality. The play of two people is crucial.
In contrast, Jazz~EbookFREE.me~ Li Shengli's inside advantage is basically established, Malone can also have the upper hand against Grant, plus assists Stockton...
The Big Three of the Jazz face the Bull Triangle, and no one dares to guess the win or lose.
As for the Jazz coach Jerry Sloan, the goal set early in the morning is to let Li Shengli's inside nuclear bomb attack, plus rebound suppression, as long as the Bulls' offensive efficiency does not reach the level of perversion, there is no defense in each position. Big problem, the first victory is not difficult!
The really difficult thing is how to reduce the offensive efficiency of the Bulls, how to limit Jordan's offense?
This is an old question that is hard to solve. Think about the original Pistons... omnipotent, catching Jordan are all criminals, and all the moves are to hit the life gate to block the Bulls repeatedly.
However, the Pistons' bad boy team is the only one in the league, and the Jazz disdain to turn the game into a murder scene.
Fortunately, Jerry Sloan held the three trump cards of Limas.
The inside is strong and weak, and Limas teamed up enough to hit the opponent to death immediately, which is simpler and more rude than the triangle attack of the Bulls.
