Chapter 497: The Glove vs. the Steal-Cutting Demon!
One day later.
This battle, anticipated by the entire nation, watched by all, and broadcast across America... arrived.
8:00 PM.
United Center.
It was an hour before the game, but the arena was already packed to capacity.
In the stands.
Lakers legends, "Skyhook" Jabbar and "Magic" Johnson, came to watch.
Bulls legends, "God of Basketball" Jordan and "The Worm" Rodman, came to watch.
At the commentary desk.
Mike Breen looked spirited, "After the 'God of Basketball' Jordan, this era has a place for the 'Four Great Shooting Guards'."
But as of now.
No one is truly the strongest guard; the "Four Great Shooting Guards" share the name as the league's four strongest guards.
Now.
The emergence of Su Yan gives him the hope of rising above the "Four Great Shooting Guards" and becoming the "strongest active shooting guard" alone.
Everything rests on tonight."
"That's right."
Mark Jackson also said excitedly, "Today, the Bulls are first in the East, and the Timberwolves' record has slipped somewhat after the 'Madman' season suspension.
The Lakers, who were already close in gap, surged up to take the top spot in the West.
So.
Tonight is also a great battle between the first in the East and the first in the West.
Furthermore... this is the first official matchup between the two sides this season with complete rosters; a clash of titans, with suspense maxed out.
Just how spectacular will this game be? Let us wait and see together."
The two commentators spoke with passion.
"Boom!"
The atmosphere in the arena surged like a tide, and the thunderous cheers made the atmosphere fiery even before the game began.
On the Bulls' warm-up half-court.
Big brother Pippen gathered everyone and said in a deep voice: "The Lakers are the biggest hurdle we are likely to encounter on our road to the championship this year.
If we break into the Finals.
Then... there is a high probability we will meet the Lakers, so cherish this matchup and properly feel the strength of the Lakers' luxurious Four Giants.
Strive to adapt early.
Then, before meeting in the Finals, find a strategy to deal with them and win the game, so we can have more confidence in winning the series.
Do you understand?"
"Oh!"
Hinrich was the first to nod heavily.
"The Finals!" ===== CHAPTER 499 =====
