Chapter 563 The First Step of the Three-Year Consecutive Championship
The first quarter was a crazy attack.
This is a duel that the audience especially loves.
In particular, the crazy rivalry between two extremely popular teams like the Bulls and Lakers are the favorites of the people.
The entire United Center and the scene were filled with waves of cheers from fans.
"Today's game was really enjoyable! I have a feeling that this finals will become one of the most perfect finals in recent years!" Fans discussed it on various online forums.
From the very beginning of the game, it was in a state of excitement.
The Bulls' impact on their opponents was like a torrent of steel, unstoppable.
Under the leadership of Kobe and Gasol, the Lakers' offense was like a beast descending from a mountain.
"When the game reaches this level, the offensive strength of the two teams is indeed evident! This year's finals are the best in recent years! The Lakers and Bulls both have luxurious lineups and powerful offenses... Such two teams
It’s natural for a matchup between two teams to be fun to watch.”
Indeed, it is natural that the matchup between the Lakers and Bulls will be good to watch.
These two teams have strong overall strength and have very popular superstars, especially the two strongest superstars in the league, Chen Jie and Kobe Bryant.
The fighting power that such a powerful showdown can bring is so exciting. It's really great to see the extreme.
Of course, in the eyes of some real fans, perhaps they prefer to watch the overall cooperation of the two teams rather than the brilliant individual performances of the stars.
But even if they wanted to see overall cooperation, the first quarter of the two teams did not disappoint them.
The Bulls and Lakers indeed played a very beautiful overall coordination.
Chen Jie and Chandler's dunks, one after another, were like meteorites falling from the sky, so cool!
However, naturally the best performer in the first quarter can only be Chen Jie.
"Damn... this guy is really too strong!" Gasol glanced at Chen Jie, who was talking to a few people behind him on the bench opposite, and secretly shook his head.
Kobe also took a sip of Gatorade. His eyes were full of solemnity - of course he wanted to win the championship in this finals. He slapped O'Neal and those reporters hard in the face.
Let them know that their original choice was not wrong.
But... from now on, the Bulls are so powerful that Kobe is completely unsure.
Facing a Bulls team like this, how can you beat them down without a doubt?
This was just the first game, and they encountered a lot of trouble.
The game has passed, and their top priority is to prepare for the second quarter... In today's game, they must be prepared for a difficult game.
Soon, the second quarter of the game began!
In the first quarter that just passed, the Bulls temporarily led their opponents with a super high score of 36-30. The first quarter was also a stage for the two teams to compete wildly.
How the game will be played. Many people don’t know.
However, according to everyone's guesses, the Lakers' bench will definitely not be a match for the Bulls' bench.
But now that it is the finals after all, the Lakers will not completely block their substitute lineup... Their substitute lineup is really a bit ineffective in front of the Bulls.
So, they kept Gasol and let them lead the bench in the game.
Kobe still needs to rest...the Lakers still need to let him compete with Chen Jie.
The competition has officially begun!
For the Lakers, Gasol has always stayed on the court, which ensures the Lakers' continuous firepower output inside. On the defensive end, the Lakers' defense this season has not been very good, so they need to ensure more
Continuous firepower output on the offensive end.
The Bulls just played a game and did very well on both offense and defense.
After six minutes of the second quarter, the score between the two sides became 47-42, with the Bulls still leading by five points... It can be said that both sides have their own winners and losers. There is nothing outstanding about the Lakers' bench, even
Compared with the luxury of their main lineup, it completely pales in comparison.
However, they are led by Gasol.
However, although it seems that the Lakers have recovered a one-point gap... But in the eyes of the audience, there are still many fans who are analyzing... It is generally believed that the situation of the Lakers today is very...
Oops.
An obvious thing!
The Lakers said they were playing from the bench, but in fact they were supported by the star Gasol.
The Bulls have a solid bench lineup.
Chen Jie hasn't even played yet and is recharging his energy on the bench! When this guy emerges from the jungle, what else will the Lakers have to resist?
By this time, the Bulls had also changed out their main lineup.
The fans at the scene were waving flags and shouting, and their excitement was palpable.
As long as they see Chen Jie on the court, they are happy. As long as Chen Jie comes on the court, in their hearts, they feel that their opponents will be finished in minutes.
Chen Jie is indeed the eternal spiritual belief in their hearts.
Today's Chinese fans do feel an indescribable joy when they come to this United Center.
To be honest, except for the upper-class elites, the Chinese in the United States are highly discriminated against, especially the lower-class Chinese, whose status is far inferior to that of blacks.
But in Chicago, especially at the United Center, Chinese people are respected by all other fans... just because of Chen Jie's identity, he is also Chinese.
Chinese fans came to the United Center. All they heard were cheers for Chen Jie, as well as the stars who came specially to watch the game...a feeling of being taken seriously arose spontaneously.
The pride of having the same skin color as Chen Jie also arises spontaneously.
Chen Jie enjoyed the cheers from the audience, but of course he also knew that behind such cheers, he needed the protection of his own hard work.
Let the fans see victory. Let them see brilliant victories one after another.
Kobe Bryant of the Lakers is also here...Today Kobe Bryant must strangle Chen Jie to death! This is also his responsibility and burden.
There is no way around this... Ariza's defense against Chen has proven to be a failure. At this time, Kobe can only do it himself! Kobe is no stranger to such a plot!
Kobe's speed and power are much worse than Chen Jie's... However, this gap is not irreparable.
Moreover, Kobe's defense is no joke... He is also 5 centimeters taller than Chen Jie.
In this way, Kobe is certainly the best person to defend Chen Jie...
The first ball belongs to the Bulls.
Amidst the roaring roar of the scene, more than 20,000 fans in the audience burst into roars, giving the Lakers players the illusion that they were in the midst of a huge wave.
There were overwhelming shouts and shouts everywhere... They were like a helpless boat on the sea.
The road ahead is bleak!
However, they still have to bite the bullet, they must go on!
Hinrich controlled the ball for half the court, and then passed the basketball to Chen Jie outside the three-point line, and Chen Jie faced Kobe.
The drama between No. 1 and No. 8 begins immediately.
Chen Jie handed the basketball to his right, moved his left foot forward, and tapped it several times like a dragonfly exploring water. Kobe didn't know what Chen Jie wanted to do. He could only keep his eyes on Chen Jie as much as possible.
Facing Kobe's defense, Chen Jie felt calm...
After three consecutive trial steps!
He suddenly jumped high!
The whole person soared into the air. A pull-up jumper came directly in front of Kobe.
For many players, pulling up and shooting in front of Kobe is an act of seeking death. Kobe's jumping and his keen judgment of basketball can make players who try to challenge Kobe's dignity fall into the abyss.
.
but!
Chen Jie is different!
His ability to seize opportunities is at its peak.
In the blink of an eye, Kobe had no time to react!
In such an electric moment.
His body rose into the air, missing Kobe's best reaction time.
At this moment, Chen Jie had already taken off into the air.
Lean back slightly!
This made it impossible for Kobe to find Chen Jie's position, so he could only stretch out his right hand randomly... but Chen Jie's basketball had left his hands, and after a long flight, it crashed directly into the net flowers.
"Whoa!" The three-pointer was hit!
50-42!
Chen Jie's three-pointer widened the score gap to 8 points.
"Fight back!" Kobe said simply and neatly. He personally controlled the ball for half the court and challenged Chen Jie.
The fans at the scene were shouting for defense crazily.
Kobe's offensive ability is still very strong!
Now, it was Gasol who came up to help Kobe in the pick-and-roll and fended off Chen Jie's intrusion.
Kobe took advantage of the golden space that Gasol blocked for him, rushed directly into the paint, and finally opened up a gap for a successful layup.
Two point shot!
The Bulls attack again.
In the arena, all the fans were cheering for Chen Jie.
Chen Jie once again controlled the ball and stood outside the three-point line, and Kobe approached him again. Chen Jie leaned on Kobe on his shoulder, and then suddenly made two turns, left and right!
Speed surge!
Chen Jie's speed was so fast that he was as fast as lightning. In an instant, he had penetrated the inside line. However, his ability to grasp the deepest gap in the inside line was extremely strong.
Then, Chen Jie had already arrived under the basket!
Chen Jie jumped up high, his whole body in the sky. After making a fake move, his whole body got past the deepest defense inside. Then, his whole body was in the sky, almost stopped abruptly!
At the moment when the audience was watching this miracle, Chen Jie's body suddenly turned around!
Holding the basketball in his right hand, he swung it heavily in the air!
The basketball hit the basket hard!
"Boom!"
The basket made a loud bang!
The whole arena heard it!
The aftermath of this loud noise was quickly suppressed by the crazy roars of the fans at the scene.
This ball is so beautiful.
The audience at the scene had all stood up and cheered.
Kobe frowned - from the current point of view, it is impossible for him to guard against this lunatic Chen Jie.
This madman's scoring ability is unbelievable. Even though he tried his best, he still couldn't guard against this birdie.
For such a powerful guy, Kobe has indeed been shaken...
He doesn't know how to deal with such a person.
However, the game must continue.
Chen Jie used a beautiful three-pointer, plus an extremely domineering dunk after rushing to the inside. This combination of punches kicked off their return to the court.
52-44!
The Bulls still have an eight-point lead.
Then, the Lakers continued to counterattack. Gasol in the inside shot a two-pointer. On the Bulls side, Hinrich passed the ball to the outside. When Chen Jie was about to make a jump shot, Kobe Bryant rushed up.
Chen Jie threw the basketball to Hinrich again.
Hinrich also took advantage of the Lakers' defensive loopholes at this time and threw the basketball heavily into the sky!
Suddenly, Chandler next to him rushed up, grabbed the basketball, and blasted it directly into the basket!
This was a very violent dunk. The roars of the scene continued to echo with the soul-stirring dunk.
The whole stadium was echoing crazily.
The entire arena was filled with praise for Chandler.
Everyone on the Bulls today performed very well. After all, although they are young, they are no longer new to the finals!
After Chandler's dunk, the Bulls' morale improved to a higher level.
In the following second quarter of the game, Chen Jie continued to kill on the offensive end! The rest of the Bulls team also played a soul-stirring offense under the leadership of Chen Jie.
Chandler's dunks came one after another, Chen Jie's breakthroughs and shots were elegant and precise, and Chen Jie's own scores continued to rise.
The Lakers also have their own backs and forths. Their offense is equally sharp. The offensive combination of Gasol and Kobe is something that many people in the league cannot crack.
The cooperation between the two people has become more and more tacit, to the point where they follow each other step by step.
At the end of the first half, the Bulls used a score of 63-51 and a 12-point scoring gap to temporarily lead the Lakers!
It can be said that many Bulls fans find this result to be unexpected...
In their minds, the Lakers can never be the Bulls' opponent.
Trailing their opponents by 12 points at halftime... This is definitely not a very small point difference, especially for the Lakers versus the Bulls.
The Lakers shouldn't have been opened up by so many points.
Although the Lakers are far from gloomy, their mood is indeed not good.
In this game, no one comes with the confidence to win.
Everyone is afraid of Chen Jie, but there is no reason. Super strong players such as Kobe and Gasol are also afraid of him... Therefore, before the game started, generally speaking, they thought that they had a great hope of winning this game.
However, they didn't expect that things would turn out the way they did now.
The Bulls got worse and worse as they fought.
At this time, the second half of the game began.
"Chen Jie! Chen Jie! Chen Jie!"
All the fans at the scene were shouting this name!
There were constant roars and crazy sounds.
And in the middle of the stadium!
The two superstars of this era once again stood on the court.
The fighting in the second half has officially begun!
"Bang!" Kobe broke through and passed the basketball to Gasol. Gasol threw the basketball into the sky! Kobe had already jumped up, grabbed the basketball in the sky, and slammed it into the basket.
.
The two guys, with this kind of cooperation, are indeed familiar with each other. Such a big alley-oop dunk suddenly caused constant boos from the fans at the scene.
Then, Hinrich controlled the ball for half the court and handed the basketball to Chen Jie.
Chen Jie listened to the roar of the audience and controlled the basketball. Kobe once again defended Chen Jie...
Chen Jie stayed close to Kobe and pressed his left shoulder against his chest. Then, he suddenly took a step back and the basketball instantly passed through his crotch and came to the left side.
Kobe quickly followed up, but within a short moment, the basketball in Chen Jie's left hand was swatted by his left hand through his back and into his right hand.
Chen Jie then jumped!
This jump was like a phantom. The whole person instantly jumped to the forty-five-degree angle of the three-point line. Kobe just missed it. There was no time to catch up with Chen Jie...
The basketball in Chen Jie's hand has been thrown out.
"Whoa!" The basketball hit the net!
What followed was wild cheers from the entire audience.
Then, for the Lakers, Gasol hit a mid-range shot.
The Bulls side! Chen Jie once again penetrated the inside. His figure was indeed too erratic, and the opponent had a hard time defending him. Chen Jie once again came to the deep inside, and then jumped high and along the line.
Gliding in the direction of the backboard.
"Damn it! This ball will definitely knock you down!" Gasol thought viciously as he jumped high in the sky. He felt that he had grasped Chen Jie's route - that is, gliding to the basket.
One side then looks back at the moon!
Kobe does that all the time!
Seeing that Chen Jie was about to be blocked by Gasol... the basketball in his hand disappeared like a magic trick... until people saw the trace of the basketball again.
I only saw the basketball bounce back from Chen Jie's hand, bounce on the floor, and bounce into the hands of Chandler who jumped in from behind!
Then!
"Boom!" Another earth-shattering and beautiful chop!
Chandler took off, like a majestic march, which would be wiped out in front of him despite strong obstacles.
Chen Jie and Chandler high-fived. The Lakers' offense missed and the Bulls grabbed the rebound.
After Chen Jie received the pass, he took two steps inside. Then he jumped up against Kobe!
Kobe was afraid of being touched by Chen Jie, so he had no choice but to relax his defense... Chen Jie easily threw the basketball into the basket.
"Whoa!" Two points again!
Chen Jie scored 46 points alone.
Then, Gasol of the Lakers broke through and made a layup.
In Chen Jie's case, he still holds the ball, breaks through the paint, and gets out on the baseline. Chandler blocks Kobe, and Gasol comes up to defend Chen Jie.
Facing Gasol, Chen Jie was about to take control of the ball and walk out of the three-point line, but he suddenly turned around and wanted to beat Gasol with a time difference. This caught him off guard and had to fly back quickly to defend Chen Jie's possible breakthrough.
…
However, at this time, Chen Jie used his crotch to change his hand, and the basketball came to his left hand again. He flew back again. Gasol was directly thrown to the ground by Chen Jie's successive fake moves.
And Chen Jie threw the basketball into the basket with ease...
Two point shot!
48 points!
On the Lakers' side, there was no scoring again. On the Bulls' side, Chen Jie once again passed Kobe Bryant, brushed Gasol's defense and made a throw, and the basketball hit again!
50 points...
Chen Jie's scoring efficiency is terrifying.
The shooting percentage is also scary. At the beginning of the third quarter, Chen Jie scored 9 points in a row, and his total score in a single game exceeded 50 points.
Scored more than 50 points again in the finals.
He scored nine points in a row, which also widened the Lakers' score gap a lot.
After Chen Jie hit the throw, he also waved his fist!
Indeed, it felt so good to hit the ball.
His touch was so good today, he could shoot almost as well as he wanted. As long as he exerted a little force, his opponent couldn't resist, and he could only win the game amidst a sad cry.
However, after scoring 9 consecutive points at the beginning of the third quarter, Chen Jie also needed to slow down a little.
After all, those few shots he just made were very technical, especially the shot that knocked Gasol down. The series of changes in direction and speed made Chen Jie himself a little bit overwhelmed.
"Damn!" Kobe cursed bitterly when he saw the point difference widening. In the next attack, he fired a cannonball directly from outside the three-point line!
"Whoa!" The basketball hit!
Kobe clenched his fists and shouted yes. The Bulls continued to attack and the basketball was given to Chandler. Chandler turned around and hit a layup.
In today's game, after the second half, both sides were back and forth. The shooting percentage was unimaginably high.
…………
This state lasted for a long time, and Chen Jie also got a lot of rest. Kobe also took the opportunity to score continuously and draw chestnuts from the fire. Under his explosion, the score gap finally narrowed step by step. When there were 4 minutes left on the clock, the score was
86-78, the Bulls only led by 8 points.
Compared with the previous largest point difference of 16 points, the Lakers have already caught up with the Lakers by 8 points.
But at this moment, this guy Chen Jie made a three-pointer and the point difference instantly returned to double digits.
At this moment, they realized that no matter how arrogant they were to Chen Jie before the game... no matter how vulnerable they thought the Bulls would be before the game...
But practice brings true knowledge!
At this time, they knew what kind of threat Chen Jie's existence was to the Lakers.
What kind of terrorist threat.
The basketball is back in the hands of the Lakers. At this time, the Lakers must stabilize and stabilize the momentum of their counterattack in the previous game...
It's a pity that this is just the fans' wishful thinking... The Lakers' basketball bounced high from the basket! Chen Jie rushed into the paint and grabbed the rebound.
After grabbing the rebound, Chen Jie slowed down his speed and controlled the ball for half the court. Then he suppressed the offensive speed of the entire Bulls team and started a positional battle with the Lakers in an orderly manner.
The two teams are no strangers to the positional warfare style of play, and both teams have their own offensive personnel.
Chen Jie controlled the basketball and patrolled the perimeter. Kobe stared at Chen Jie's every move, not daring to relax at all. Chen Jie stepped on the steps, and every sound seemed to step on Kobe's heart. Kobe's head was faintly
Yueyue was sweating a little... Today, facing this Chen Jie, he really felt that he couldn't handle it.
"Bang! Bang!" Chen Jie suddenly changed his hands and changed direction. Suddenly, Kobe was a little moved and swayed with Chen Jie's body... Chen Jie suddenly took the ball and took a step back.
, and then changed the direction of retreat the moment Kobe caught up with him, accelerating forward.
This series of changes of direction and speed made it impossible for Kobe to resist. It took a lot of effort for Kobe to restrain his body from being almost knocked down by Chen Jie, but this also caused Kobe to completely lose his ability to defend Chen Jie.
Chen Jie accelerated directly and rushed into the paint. In an instant, all the Lakers players came up to block him. Chen Jie faced the difficulty and made a layup over Gasol!
Gasol had no choice but to commit another foul...and after this foul, Chen Jie's basketball still flew into the net!
"Well done!" The fans at the scene cheered excitedly again.
Chen Jie also got a chance to add a penalty.
The basketball came into Chen Jie's hands. He stood on the free throw line and took a deep breath!
Then!
"Whoa!"
Free throw shot!
60 points!
Chen Jie scored 60 points in three quarters!
Tonight, Chen Jie added another significant touch to the glorious history of United.
Sixty points in these three quarters really made people feel Chen Jie's terror.
Moreover, Chen Jie's three-pointer and three-pointer made the score 92-78... The Bulls were already leading by 14 points!
Just now, the Lakers were approaching the Bulls' scoring situation step by step, but now, they have been successfully defeated by the Bulls again.
This quarter of the game ended with 108-94.
The Bulls still led the Lakers by 14 points entering the final quarter. (To be continued..)
