Chapter 583
Chapter 583
"Didi..." At the same time that Petrovic scored, the referee blew the whistle and called Perdo for a foul. Petrovic scored two plus one.
This made it even more difficult for the Bulls to accept, and the referee kept arguing. On the contrary, the Warriors were already boiling.
"Good work, Drazen!" As Petrovic's good brother, Divac is especially happy for Petrovic. He is the closest to Petrovic at the basket, and he walks directly in front of him in two steps. , pulled it up, and praised it.
The two sailed across the ocean together last year with longing, and came to Auckland from Yugoslavia, but suffered a heavy blow because of the reality.
Different from his own contentment, Divac knew that Petrovic had always been high-spirited, so he was hit harder.
In addition, unlike my own side, because of Moses Malone's injury, I have a lack of center forwards, so that he can ensure a certain amount of playing time no matter whether he plays well or not, and it also relieves Divac from worrying about playing time.
But Petrovic is much more difficult. Even if the Warriors suffer from a wave of injuries, there are too many players on the inside of the team who can play. Even Rodman and Schramf can play as small forwards. , so as long as you don't play well in one game, it is very likely that your playing time in the next game will be reduced.
In Petrovic's previous career, he has never experienced such fierce competition. After all, as the favorite of heaven, he has played since he was a child and grew up. In most cases, he plays the core role of the team. As it is now, they have to compete for playing time.
Of course, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Although he has suffered a lot since he came to the Warriors this year, at the same time, his strength has also improved rapidly.
At this time, the European basketball world has a big gap with the NBA in terms of training level and training philosophy, and the Warriors are the best in the league in this regard.
Therefore, after Petrovic came to the Warriors, even though he played less time on the court, he could still clearly feel that his strength was improving in normal training.
And tonight, for Petrovich, it was more like an exam, and at the same time, he completely vented all the anger that had been accumulated for a whole year. As for this goal, it was just the beginning.
After the extra penalty hit, the Warriors completely set off a counterattack.
The activeness of Petrovic forced Pippen to focus on him and let him defend. There was no way. Can't guard Petrovic.
On the Warriors' side, Hornacek and Lewis also got a lot of opportunities because the only defensive pioneer on the outside of the Bulls was attracted away.
Although Petrovic doesn't average many assists per game, it doesn't mean that his passing ability is not good. In fact, none of the Warriors' European players can't pass the ball!
As a result, the entire Warriors' bench was like this, because Petrovic was active alone, and was revitalized.
Not only that, but what's more terrible is that due to entering the rhythm of the Warriors, the Bulls also had problems with their offense when they couldn't defend.
Suddenly, the whole situation was reversed. In just a few minutes, the Warriors beat the Bulls 8-0, narrowing the point difference to less than 5 points.
Even the mixed lineup couldn't resist the Warriors' backup lineup chasing points, which made the Bulls extremely passive, and Jackson had an embarrassing situation with no cards available at this time.
In fact, Jackson also knew in his heart that if the Bulls had a poor lineup, there were not many teams with good lineups in the league. But even so, when facing the Warriors, the Bulls were still stretched in rotation.
This makes Jackson sometimes can't help feeling, where did the Warriors find such a group of good players?Could it really be the buff given by Li Weisi?
Regardless of the reason, the question facing Jackson now is how to interrupt the momentum of the Warriors chasing the score?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Jordan, hesitating in his heart.
Not long after, when the Warriors were dead, the Bulls made a substitution, replacing Jordan, Pippen, and Paxson, obviously to deal with the Warriors' chasing points, and at the same time let Pippen rest for a while. During this period, For Petrovic's defense, Pippen really consumed a lot of energy and physical strength.
Soon after Jordan came back, he caused a foul by Lewis and went to the free throw line, finally breaking the Bulls' scoring drought in the second quarter.
Unexpectedly, when Jordan made a free throw, the Warriors also made substitutions and adjustments, and the Warriors returned to the court starting five times.
Of course, such a substitution is risky. After all, the Warriors are playing well off the bench at this time, but the performance of the starters in the first quarter is somewhat unsatisfactory. Therefore, it is also worrying that it will break the good situation of chasing points at this time.
However, what everyone was worried about did not happen. The Warriors' starting lineup not only continued the good state of the bench, but also successfully limited the Bulls' scoring.
Facing the familiar and no longer familiar Richmond, Jordan made a sudden stop for a jumper during the breakthrough. Although he got rid of Richmond, he missed the shot.
After scoring 53 points like a god in the last game, Jordan's state has finally dropped in this game. Although the score is still the highest in the team, it is gone. Heart fluttering feeling.
The basketball bounced off the neck of the basket, and Rodman overpowered Grant and grabbed the rebound.
Rodman's rebounding statistics have soared this season. In the playoffs, the rebounding statistics did not drop but rose. He almost relied on his own strength to support the rebounds of the entire team. He often grabbed 15, 20 rebounds are like picking things out of the bag.
Especially in the finals, facing the Bulls without a superstar insider, it is even more comfortable, becoming the most present insider of the two teams.This also made many teams have a strong interest in Rodman.
Unfortunately, to their disappointment, Rodman has already completed the contract extension with the Warriors ahead of schedule. The attempts of these teams to let them go bankrupt before they are implemented. They can only watch Rodman with drool in the finals. Performance.
After receiving Rodman's pass, Li Weisi quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt, facing Jordan's defense, and hit a chasing three-pointer.
Unlike Jordan, Li Weisi's performance in this game was comparable to that of Jordan in the previous game. In the first quarter, it was Li Weisi's scoring that kept the team from being beaten by the Bulls in the first quarter.
And in this quarter, it was Li Weisi who took the lead in firing the first counterattack shot for the Warriors. With this three-pointer, the Bulls' lead has become very precarious.
