Chapter 59: 【Blood wash】


In the last quarter, Jordan continued to play and tried to use his personal ability to reverse the game. This was a futile effort. The Knicks did not relax at all.
   Van Gundy's employment is still relatively conservative, leading the big score and arranging two defensive players to follow Jordan on the spot. No matter how much he leads, Van Gundy can't tolerate his players' defensive efforts, otherwise he will be uncomfortable.
  Under the Knicks players, Jordan's scoring efficiency has not been high, and he only shot two points. After 6 minutes, the Knicks also led by 27 points and locked the victory.
  Both sides sent in substitutes, and Jordan's face was horrible when he came off the court.
   He can't accept this way of losing. The two teams don't seem to be the same grade at all. If the Knicks can play this kind of game intensity in the playoffs, even if the Bulls have Pippen, it is difficult to win.
  Not even the "God of Basketball" is optimistic about the Bulls' prospects, not to mention the fans? The Knicks have a warm atmosphere at home as if they are already championships, completely forgetting the first game lost to the Bulls.
  After Larry Johnson's comeback, the Knicks and the last confrontation were judged to be two teams, and the offense was unstoppable.
  In terms of fame, Rodman beats Johnson, but in terms of tactics, Rodman is too far behind. Rodman didn't play much on this defensive end. The Knicks only found the weak side of the offense. If Rodman changed to a pick-and-roll, Johnson would be the one to pass.
  Johnson of 198CM broke the 218CM of Langley with ease and joy. Johnson's barefoot height is actually 195CM, and the gap between the two's mobility is very obvious.
   When Langley took a break, the replacement Winnington was worse. He couldn't improve his defense, he couldn't open up space, and he played against the Knicks. It was a dead end if he couldn't go out inside.
  The Knicks' bench is not vegetarian. Substitute point guard Atkins, guest power forward Stephen Jackson and swingman Mills can also make three-pointers, leaving a Ben Wallace inside.
  Oakley took a break during garbage time, the Knicks' offense became stronger, and the point difference widened to 35 points. "Zen Master" did not call a timeout. He quietly waited for the end of the game on the sidelines.
  Unwinnable games, there is no need to let the star consume physical strength, in case of injury will be miserable.
  Albert said excitedly: "The newcomers of the Knicks let everyone see hope, especially Ben Wallace, he is very tough, and has excellent rebounding and blocking ability. This blue collar is amazing!"
  Glickman said: "Bowen is also very good. He has been a starter in the new season. He plays hard defensively and can shoot three points."
Albert laughed: "Jordan's career was not blood-washed. The most impressive thing is the 1995-96 season where the Knicks defeated the game. I am afraid today I want to create a bigger difference between the two teams. ."
In the 1995-96 season, the unbeatable Bulls visited New York with a record of 54 wins and 6 losses. All the points lost in the previous six games were within 10 points, and the Bulls scored first in the league and lost the game. First in the league, the league average is the best in the league.
   Then, the Bulls with a full lineup were slaughtered by 32 points in New York.
  The Knicks are good at pseudo-defense. The player's retraction to the penalty area has always been the most feared tactic for the Bulls because the Bulls lacked three-point shooting points in the starting lineup.
   Previously, the Knicks had a poor offense, and both sides had a win or lose. This season strengthened the offense, and the Knicks began to have the upper hand. At the end of the game, the Knicks 116-79 victory over 37 points.
  The Bulls only scored 16 points in the last quarter. After Jordan went off the Bulls were difficult to score. Without Jordan and Pippen’s Bulls, this is a bad team with the lowest strength.
   Jordan also played a nightmare game, 13 of 31 shots, 4 of 1 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, scored 36 points 4 rebounds 2 assists 3 steals, the data is good, the shooting rate is a bit miserable, 18 iron.
  The Knicks trio scored 20+. Ewing made 8 of 13 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, 20 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and Langley with 12 points and 5 rebounds.
   Johnson scored 24 points and 8 rebounds better than Rodman with 6 points and 13 rebounds.
  Houston scored 27. Once Jordan was separated by cover, there was no way to take him.
   At the press conference, Phil Jackson and Jordan were all blackfaced and did not want to say a word.
  The Knicks players all answered the reporter's questions with pride. They did not clearly state their goals, but they all saw the champion hope.
  Fan Gandi smiled and kept his usual low profile. "The players played well in this game, but the Bulls star Pippen didn't come back. We can't be complacent because of a regular season. The playoffs are the key."
  Yang Rui did not go to the press conference and went home early to rest.
   If he faces the high profile of the media, Van Gundy will be under great pressure as a coach. Van Gundy will also be deducted points when he is selected as the best coach in the regular season.
   On the contrary, he did not fight for honor, only to discuss tactics within the team, it would be much easier to persuade Van Gundy, as for the press conference to say nothing about Yang Rui's good words, it depends on Van Gundy's conscience.
   This victory, Yang Rui's greatest impression is that on the basketball court, no matter how strong the star, it is impossible to solve all problems with his personal ability. There must be good teammates and a reasonable lineup configuration.
  The Bulls are not reasonable, and the main Rodman offense is too bad. If the "Bug" can shoot, the Bulls may have more than 72 wins in 1996.
  As for those legendary stars who will lead the team independently to win the championship, independent leading the team to the finals is all nonsense.
   The next day ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The major media praised the Knicks, the team consolidated the top position in the league, 29 wins and 5 losses, the official strength list ranked first.
  The Bulls have 23 wins and 12 losses, a lot behind the Knicks. It is difficult to catch up unless there is a long streak in the back. They have to compete second with the Heat 22-22. If the regular season record is not as good as the Heat, there is no home advantage in the second round.
   The New York Times didn't mention Yang Rui, but just exaggerated Van Gundy. Thomas Bentley was not happy after reading the newspaper.
   "Are these people having brain problems? Fans know that the Knicks played well this year, and you have the most credit. Recently, you haven't mentioned your thing. The big score beat the Bulls. The offense is so beautiful. Should I say something?"
   Yang Rui ate a bun and smiled: "I am not afraid that no one will know when I get a result. Maybe there are many teams now inspecting me."
   was too late, and the New York media did not promote Yang Rui's credit.
   A Chinese coach is a good gimmick and can attract eyeballs, but arrogant Americans do not want foreigners to steal the limelight of their natives, especially Van Gundy is a white man.
  Thomas asked: "Do you really think there will be a team looking for you as the head coach in the summer?"
   "Tom, if I went out of the field, would you go with me or stay in New York?" Yang Rui asked.
  Thomas has a job on Wall Street now. If he goes to a small city, what can he do? But if they don't develop together, it is against his original intention to go to New York.
  Yang Rui smiled and said: "During this time, I suggest that you carefully study the matter of starting an investment company. I borrowed a book from the library and went to a field to start a company. It must be better than what analyst you are."
   "As long as you are not afraid of losing money, I will be with you." Thomas made up his mind.
   "It can't be compensated."
