Chapter 622: True combat power overflow
For the sake of letting a player play, fans going to the streets to protest—such a thing had never happened in NBA history.
There was no way.
Su Yan's popularity was too high.
In addition... if the boring Finals continued like this, this entire season would be destroyed.
But.
Even if fans held protests on the streets, even if the momentum was a bit grand, even if they gave the league a lot of pressure.
Commissioner David Stern still wouldn't agree to let Su Yan play early.
Why?
Because this happened before 【The Su Yan Rule】 was introduced; if Su Yan were allowed to play early now, many fans would definitely be dissatisfied.
Although without Su Yan, the Bulls might be swept by the Lakers, and the excitement of the Finals would plummet.
Fans would also feel it was a great pity.
Even Commissioner David Stern himself felt it was a pity; this was originally a series with explosive heat that was destined to make a fortune.
Now that it had reached this point, he didn't want to see it either.
But there was no way.
That fan behavior of pulling banners and marching on the streets, although it couldn't let Su Yan play early, indirectly caused his popularity to skyrocket.
This was something that had never happened before.
This was an unprecedented crazy thing.
The protest failed.
Su Yan still had to be suspended.
Su Yan and the entire Bulls team were still very moved to see the fans doing this for them.
Everyone unanimously decided.
Even if they lost the Finals, it didn't matter, but every matchup had to be fought with everything they had to tell the Bulls fans that they had never given up.
One day later.
Bulls vs. Lakers, the Finals G2 matchup arrived.
The first attack of the game.
Yao left the restricted area due to help defense, forming a mismatch of O'Neal against Pippen under the basket.
This was a completely free-point mismatch.
As long as the ball was passed to O'Neal, it would definitely be successful, and it might even be a 2+1.
However.
Facing O'Neal reaching out for the ball, Kobe, who was holding the ball on the perimeter, turned a deaf ear.
Facing Antonio's defensive rush, he accelerated one step, stopped one step, and forced a mid-range fadeaway jumper.
The difficulty was very high.
A beautiful fadeaway.
This was Kobe's offense.
But if he had passed the ball, the efficiency would have been higher.
"Clang!"
Missed.
From the very first attack of the game, everyone could see that the conflict between the OK duo still hadn't been resolved.
Did the Bulls have a chance?
The Bulls might have had a chance, but if the Bulls still couldn't win while the OK duo was having conflicts.
Then the blow to the Bulls was really too big.
"Bastard!"
Pippen cursed, "If we can't win even like this, are we too weak?!"
"Really so angry!"
Hinrich was also very frantic.
"Sigh..."
Yao sighed, "It's true that without Su Yan, our combat power is much weaker.
But.
The Lakers' combat power is truly overflowing."
That's right.
Facing the Bulls without Su Yan, the Lakers' "Luxurious Four Giants" lineup.
Allowed them to play better than the Bulls even if the "OK duo" had constant conflicts, didn't pass to each other, didn't cooperate, targeted each other, and played their own games.
Still able to play better than the Bulls. **CHAPTER 624**
