Chapter 362 The sunken galaxy battleship, the departing Michael Jordan!
In the end, the score between the two sides was fixed at 107:75.
The Knicks only scored 30 points in the second half and never scored more than 15 points in two consecutive quarters!
When this level of offense meets the Celtics' explosive feel, it's no wonder they lost so thoroughly!
In the whole game, Lin Long played 32 minutes, made 12 of 16 shots, made 25 free throws, and scored 49 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 9 blocks and 6 steals. Quasi-5 double data!
All fans are curious, if Lin Long continues to finish the fourth quarter, will they be able to see the birth of the first 5-double in NBA history.
It's a pity that Lin Long came off early again and failed to fulfill the fans' desire.
In addition to Lin Long's quasi-5-double, the Celtics did not have another person scoring more than 15 points, but 4 people scored in double figures. Big Ben also scored 2 points and 22 rebounds. Sri Lanka had an affordable double-double with 10 points and 10 assists.
This is the characteristic of this Celtic team, they have the most extreme individual, but also have the most extreme team!
These two completely different styles appear in them at the same time.
And it's not awkward, and it's not uncomfortable.
In the fourth and 31st quarter of the game, Jordan did not walk on the court again. The former king firmly covered his head with a towel. No one could see what Jordan looked like under the towel, and no one dared to At this time, go chat with Jordan and enlighten him.
That's no different from courting death.
When the game was about to end and the camera swept to Jordan, Smith couldn't help but sigh:
"I think the end of this season means the real end of an era. The era that belongs to Jordan, Olajuwon, and a group of legends in the 1980s has officially ended."
"I don't know what Jordan is thinking now, is he unwilling, resigned, or confused? After two consecutive years of failure, two consecutive years of losing to the same person, 36-year-old Jordan, and a 2-year contract, what will he do? go down?"
"This Celtics team is too strong! The Knicks formed a seemingly invincible galaxy battleship in the offseason, but in the collision with the Celtics, they were almost powerless to fight back. They didn't even win a single game and they sank."
"This ending is beyond everyone's expectations, and it also makes all New York City feel desperate. If even such a lineup can't beat the Celtics, what else can they come up with to deal with it? What about the Celtics? Do they really have to wait until the Celtics disintegrate before they can win the championship again? This question
I think it's not just New Yorkers who are thinking. "
"All teams whose goal is to win the championship must think about this question, how to beat the Celtics, how to combine the teams to beat them? Maybe in the finals, the Spurs or the lakers can give us the answer, maybe in the finals, will Get another team to think about this!
When the whistle of the game finally sounded, the players on both sides got up and left the bench to hug their friendly opponents and chat a few more words with each other.
With a score of 4:0, the two teams that were the most promising and most likely to meet in the Eastern Conference finals before the game did not have a real fire. One won without any risk, and the other lost without complaint.
Lin Long didn't think much, he got up and walked towards Jordan.
The king of the 1990s, who was once the first player in the league, has not stood up from the bench for a long time.
It was not until Lin Long came to his side and sat directly beside him that Jordan took off the towel on his head and looked at Lin Long.
There is no imagined malice, no imagined anger, or even any kind of tearful or earth-moving expression.
Jordan's expression was surprisingly calm.
He looked at Lin Long and said, "The alliance belongs to your generation."
Lin Long felt a wave of indifference and loneliness from Jordan, he guessed something, and then couldn't help asking: "Are you leaving?"
"Yes, I'm leaving, I just decided." Jordan shrugged indifferently and said, "I originally wanted to play in New York for a few more years, but now it seems that there is no need or need.
"I found that no matter how hard I play, I can't beat you guys. If I fight for another year, the gap between us will only get bigger and bigger. I can only sit on the bench again and wait for failure. It feels so bad, it makes me want to go crazy! 35
"Since I can no longer control the game, and I can no longer decide the victory or defeat, then I should leave early." Jordan paused and said: "While I still have some ability, I don't want to be embarrassed in the end. drive away.
After Jordan finished speaking, he showed a rare smile and said, "Maybe I will buy a team to play with and try to build a team by myself. You can consider joining my team at that time!
Lin Long thought to himself: Come on, with your vision, the management hasn't lost all their pants? Only an idiot would cooperate with you like this!
But after thinking about it, Lin Long couldn't directly say what was in his heart. He patted Jordan and changed the subject: "Why don't I ask all my guys to sign for basketball as your retirement battle? souvenir?""
Jordan laughed and said: "Fuck you! A lost game, what is there to commemorate? I'm only interested in winning! That's it, boy, I'm going to announce my decision to the world! 95
This side said goodbye to Jordan and watched him speak at the press conference that shocked the whole world.
Retire!
Although the team lost the Eastern Conference finals and was swept out without any suspense, everyone thought that the Knicks would usher in great changes again in the summer, but Jordan's decision was still surprising.
You know, even if he lost the Eastern Conference finals, Jordan is still a member of the first team of the league this year, and his average points per game still remain in the top 3 in the league.
In the playoffs, he also has a terrifying efficiency and shooting percentage, and can provide the top output! Not to mention that in the Eastern Conference finals, it was Jordan who responded to Lin Long with a mid-range shot, making the game full of suspense.
But is such a Jordan, actually retired like this?
Amid the exclamations of the world, Jordan waved his hand dashingly and walked off the podium.
Jordan's departure is destined to be the number one traffic and sports headline for the next few days.
Everyone knew that Jordan could leave at any time, but when 520 finally came, there were still a large number of fans who couldn't accept it and were unwilling to accept it.
Countless people voluntarily marched, expressing their hope that Jordan would come for another year so they could say goodbye.
There are also countless people, looking at their Jordan jerseys, lost in thought.
The entire United States was caught in a huge discussion because of the news of Jordan's retirement.
And when Jordan's fans fell into pain and reluctance, praying for Jordan to come again for another year, the Western Conference finals have also entered the heat.
Unlike the sweep in the East, the Los Angeles Lakers, who swept their opponents in the first two rounds, finally met a close opponent in the Western Conference finals.
The San Antonio Spurs led by Duncan and David Robinson!
The four superstars of the Lakers and the twin towers of the Spurs fought to the death in the Western Conference finals.
In the first four games, the two sides each defended their own home court, and it was a 2:2 draw.
The fifth game, also the most important battle of Tianwang Mountain in the series, started at the home of the Lakers.
In this game, both sides used their strength to fight for their lives. O'Neal and Malone's twin towers and Duncan Robinson's combination fought back and forth, and neither of them was able to gain the upper hand. Very high-spirited, never easily waste the open space opportunities from teammates, and the grasp of open shots is great!
The scores of the two sides were intertwined all the way, indistinguishable, and the entanglement of the score continued until the second half of the fourth quarter.
