In 1992, 1呖分甾胗8,676 Chicago United Center fans were lucky 髫潋啜缅enough to witness a classic decisive battle on Christmas night when the Bulls, the overlord of the league, took on their rival new york Knicks, who had fought seven bloody matches in the semi-finals of the Eastern Conference last year.
The iron defense advocated by Pat Riley has always been a big headache for phil jackson. Unlike the dirty playing style of Detroit's "bad boys", proud new york people never disdain to win in a way contrary to sports ethics.
They emphasize physical confrontation almost abnormally and attach great importance to position competition. The rotation and coordination between the five can be called perfect, which can greatly block the flow of the ball path most emphasized by the Bulls' triangle offense and limit Jordan's individual singles.
1992年，芝加哥联合中心的18676名球迷有幸在圣诞之夜目睹一场经典决战，由联盟霸主公牛队迎战上年东部半决赛中血战7场的对手纽约尼克斯队。
帕特·莱利所提倡的铁血防守历来令菲尔·杰克逊大感头痛，和过去底特律那群“坏孩子”的肮脏球风不同，骄傲的纽约人从来不屑采用有悖运动道德的方式获取胜利。
他们近乎变态地强调身体对抗，非常重视位置的争夺，五人之间的轮转换位和协防补位堪称完美，能极大限度地阻断公牛队三角进攻最强调的球路流动，并限制乔丹的个人单打。
