Unstoppable Manu Ginobili

"That high a score?" Magic Johnson, watching from the sidelines, found it unbelievable!

Pippen's defense had already reached an all-time level! Magic Johnson had experienced it firsthand!

It was Pippen's defense that brought Showtime's final glory to an end!

Countless elite forwards and guards had been buried by his hands, from Showtime's James Worthy and Magic Johnson!

To Mark Aguirre, who had averaged 29.8 points per game in a single season during the Pistons era.

Countless superstars had faced Pippen's defense in the playoffs and put up terrible performances!

"An isolation at the top of the arc! Kobe used O'Neal's screen, turned sideways, and tossed the ball up! Kobe's signature fading three-pointer made an appearance!"

Then they would take over the game!

"Mm!" Mobley looked at
