217: I will lead you forward (asking for monthly tickets!)_4

But Big Ben's strong and swift interception prevented Malone from breaking through.

Just as Malone was preparing to pull up for a jump shot, Pippen stepped up again!

At the sight of Pippen, Malone felt annoyed; in this playoff series, Pippen had already caused him too many turnovers.

Malone suppressed the urge to shoot and quickly passed the ball to Bryon Russell, who had been left open by Pippen.

Russell raised the basketball to shoot, but Stevie Smith came over to help on defense.

Having no choice, Russell continued to pass, delivering the ball to the man with the big heart, Stockton.

But the moment Stockton caught the ball, Roger was already in position.

However, Stockton was after all the player best at knowing how to assist his teammates in the world.

He anticipated Roger's rotation, so as soon as he received the ball, he didn't let it linger in his hands for even 0.1 seconds.
