Chapter 41 Peyton was brutally beaten!Furious Jordan is unstoppable! "Don't worry, Michael! I will definitely fulfill your wish!" Peyton chewed gum, his face full of unruly and arrogant: "I will destroy your wish! No matter how many times, I will satisfy you!"
"You have the courage!" Jordan said with a thumbs up: "I hope you can still be this kind after three hours! Instead of crying and begging me to let you go."
After Jordan finished speaking, he no longer had any communication or nonsense with Payton, turned around and walked towards his own half!
"Michael is particularly murderous tonight!" CBS's Marcus happened to see this scene and said with some worry in the live broadcast room: "We all still remember that a month ago, Nick Anderson was killed by Jordan What a miserable fight! Can Payton break the league's iron rule of 'never provoke Jordan' tonight?"
"Honestly, if I were asked to choose a perimeter player who could embarrass Jordan with his defense, I would definitely choose Payton!" Marcus' partner Smith said: "But the premise is that he must not anger Jordan in advance! A Jordan in a peaceful state may be restricted."
"But a Jordan who was completely angry after being provoked? Sorry, you have to go to God to do that!"
Obviously, judging from the pre-game predictions, neither Marcus nor Smith are optimistic about the Sonics and Payton at all.
They all feel that tonight will be Good Friday for the Sonics! This is also the view of most fans and media!
The impression of oppression and invincibility that Jordan has brought to everyone is too strong!It's like an invisible ideological stamp that hits everyone's subconscious directly! Never piss off Jordan! This is definitely the first iron rule of the NBA in the 90s!
Perhaps the only ones who have confidence are the SuperSonics players!
No one knows what kind of ecstasy soup Payton and George Karl fed the players.
But in short, every Sonics player's face is full of confidence and desire at this time!
They have also decided to use all their energy to kill the Bulls tonight!
They also naturally sent out their strongest starting combination: point guard Gary Payton, shooting guard Jose Hawkins, small forward Detrev Schrempf, power forward Sean Kemp, center' magician'……
Well, an Earvin Johnson who has the same name and surname as Magic, but is not related in any way! This five-man combination, even in today's inside-first human shield alliance, can be regarded as tall!
The three frontcourt players are all over 208 centimeters tall, and Payton, who is 193 centimeters tall, is also a giant at point guard. Among the entire starting lineup, only Hawkins is smaller than players at the same position.
This lineup of three big and two small is the magic weapon for George Karl to lead his team to temporarily rank first in the Western Conference this season! Use height, hardness and huge size to take out most opponents! It was with this lineup that the SuperSonics defeated the Bulls at home. Now, they want to do it a second time!
The Bulls also did not change their starting lineup. The Iron Triangle was paired with Longley and Hubble, and the five of them walked onto the court together!With the referee's whistle, this summit showdown between the Eastern and Western Conferences has officially begun! 'Pirate Magic' Johnson relied on his super tall figure to easily get the first wave of the ball for the team. As soon as Payton got the basketball, Jordan had already rushed over without hesitation! The whole field leads the defense!
Start from the first turn!This is Jordan's attitude!
Risking your life starts from the first second of the game! Under Jordan's fierce defense, Payton looked a little embarrassed, but fortunately he was also the league's top point guard. After quickly adjusting his condition, he passed the ball.
After a series of conduct and cooperation, Kemp got the basketball in the paint! But just as he was about to take off and dunk with the ball, Rodman, who was opposite him, slapped him and knocked the basketball out of his hand!
Bulls fast break opportunity!
Jordan received the ball, took the initiative to find Payton, and advanced quickly against him. When he reached two steps inside the three-point line, Jordan suddenly said: "Are you ready? I'm going to shoot!"
After saying that, Jordan didn't give Payton a chance to prepare, so he just picked it up and threw it away!
Even though Payton is known as the 'glove', he didn't react in time at this time. He only had time to extend his hand symbolically before Jordan hit a 2-pointer and took the lead!
After Jordan scored, he didn't relax at all, but stuck tightly to Payton again! He came tonight just to embarrass Payton, make Payton regret, and give Payton nightmares!
Under Jordan's leadership, the defensive enthusiasm and ferocity of the rest of the Bulls have also increased, reaching their peak state! You know, the Bulls have three best defensive player-level super defenders in Jordan, Pippen and Rodman. In addition, Harper and Longley are also excellent defensive players. The Bulls' unique trick is actually Not Jordan Pippen Rodman at all.
Their real trick is this!
Increase your intensity, increase your defensive investment, and use life-threatening defense to kill the game! Faced with the Bulls' terrifying defensive intensity, Payton was actually barely able to catch up and withstand it, but other than Payton, it was really a bit reluctant. They never expected that the Bulls, who were putting out all their power, would It's so scary! With this mentality and style of play, the score difference between the two sides quickly widened! Jordan, on the other hand, took the ball in the low post and waist again and again, and then hit it again and again!
He is starting to fulfill his promise! Tonight, Jordan is going to beat Payton to death! 'Glove' Payton has guarded countless people, and he has also restricted Jordan's below-average performance several times.
But this night, facing the extremely furious Jordan, facing Jordan who completely released all his firepower and only had the thought of killing Payton, Payton suddenly discovered... that the defense he was proud of was so unsatisfactory. reliable!
11投8中，其中3分球1投1中，罚球4罚全中，乔丹首节比赛登场9分钟，就拿下了21分！率队以28：20，领先了超音速队8分！ 至于赛前和乔丹叫嚣的佩顿，打了5分钟就2次犯规被提前换下，3投1中只拿到了2分1助攻，还有2次失误！ It can be said that his performance was extremely bad!
The reason why the team was only 8 points behind had nothing to do with Payton. They all relied on the Sonics' tall frontcourt. Kemp and Johnson grabbed 4 offensive rebounds and relied on the second offense to win. At 6 points, this is the biggest reason why the Sonics have not been completely pulled away!
