NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 73 Move to Chicago

Butler received a pass from Rose and first made a three-threat start.

Tested jr's defensive center of gravity.

Although jr is old, he doesn't have much playing time and has enough energy. It is not a big problem to defend Butler, who is half health at this time.

Butler couldn't see jr's defensive center of gravity, so he directly launched a hard attack.

Relying on his younger body, he pushed jr all the way to the basket.

After the two went all the way to the basket, Butler forced a layup, and Smith stretched out his hand to interfere.

boom--

The basketball strikes the iron and fails to hit.

Thompson took the rebound and gave it to Su Tian.

Su Tian slowly stabilized his rhythm and advanced to the frontcourt.

Su Tian knew that the fast attack could not be played, so he advanced slowly to stabilize the rhythm.

In fact, the feeling of cutting flesh with a blunt knife is like Ling Chi to a bull.

After Su Tian came to the frontcourt, he continued to play pick and roll with Love.

With the help of the pick-and-roll to continue to break through to the inside, Ross was unable to do what he wanted. Seeing that he was going to be unable to catch up and defend, he was about to be scored by Su Tian.

Gasol had no choice but to let go of Love and go to block Su Tian.

Seeing Gasol coming to block him, Su Tian passed the ball directly to Love.

Love catches the ball and shoots with open hand, making a steady two-pointer.

In the first two rounds of the fourth quarter, the point difference has reached 26 points.

Thibodeau jumped anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.

Here the Bulls serve quickly and give it to Rose.

Rose quickly advanced with the ball, and directly broke through Su Tian when he came to the frontcourt.

Su Tian was full of energy, and cooperated with his own death coil to block Rose's breakthrough.

Rose can't break through to the free throw line again.

Had to give the ball to Butler on the wing.

Butler also had a headache, but he didn't expect this old jr to be so difficult to mess with.

After Butler received the ball, he made a three-pointer directly after the three threats.

Butler thought, anyway, it's all about chasing points, and if you hit a three-pointer, you earn it.

Swah——

Butler's three-pointer was a lucky hit.

The point difference came to 23 points

Su Tian didn't panic when he saw Butler hit a three-pointer.

After receiving Love's serve, he slowly held the ball and came to the frontcourt.

A score difference of more than 20 points is not so easy to chase, not to mention that there is only less than one quarter left.

This point difference is placed in the regular season, and I have given up a long time ago, that is, the playoffs. I don't want to give up easily.

Su Tian came to the frontcourt and continued to play pick and roll with Love.

It's not that there's a lack of change, it's that the trick really works, so there's no need to change.

Rose still couldn't catch up and defend, and this time he directly switched defenses with Gasol to deal with it.

Seeing Gasol switch defenses, Su Tian holds the ball and pulls Gasol out.

Su Tian retreated to the three-point line with the ball.

Gasol also had no choice but to follow to the three-point line defense.

Love took Rose to a low position.

Seeing that Love was in a good position, Su Tian dropped the ball in and gave it to Love on the inside.

Love turned on the post-up mode, easily back-up Rose, and hit a layup.

The point difference came to 25 points again.

Thibodeau wanted to surrender, but Rose obviously didn't want to give up, and Butler didn't want to give up either.

The two are still struggling to support, but it doesn't help.

Thibodeau called a timeout with 2 minutes left in the game.

There are 2 minutes left in the end, but the point difference is still maintained at about [-] points, Thibodeau doesn't want to struggle anymore.

Rose sat on the court dripping with sweat, watching the score on the court unwillingly.

Butler also looked helpless.

Tai Lunlue is also relieved, if the opponent continues to fight, in order to ensure victory.

Tyronn Lue must also let Su Tian and Love continue to play, but this will increase the risk of injury, and the gain outweighs the gain.

Now that Thibodeau has replaced and surrendered, Tyronn Lue can also breathe a sigh of relief and replace Su Tian and Love.

In the end, the game ended and the Cavaliers beat the Bulls 116-97.

The point difference is close to [-] points. From the beginning of the game, the Bulls have been pressing until the end of the game
It can also be seen from this game that there is a certain gap between the Bulls and the Cavaliers.

Not only in terms of players, but also in terms of tactical flexibility, there is also a certain gap.

Many basketball media and basketball commentators have been criticizing Thibodeau's coaching, saying that Thibodeau has changed too little.

And many people have suggested that Thibodeau does not have a good solution when the team falls behind.

Obviously, Thibodeau, who is good at defense, has his own understanding of how to chase points.

It's just that Thibodeau didn't succeed in the end.

Thibodeau was under tremendous pressure, and so was Rose.

The voice of questioning Ross became louder.

But Rose was a taciturn person, he didn't give any response, he was just training constantly.

On May 5, the Clippers and Rockets will also play against the Cavaliers.

The Clippers lost to the Rockets 109-115.

Griffin scored 34 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists.

But the main reason for the Clippers' defeat was Paul's injury and retirement.

If the chain is lost at a critical moment, it still depends on Paul.

The Rockets' modern combination scored a total of 56 points and led the team to victory.

On May 5, Su Tian followed the team to Chicago.

Ready to play the first away game against the Bulls.

Chicago is known as the capital of crime, so Su Tian didn't dare to go out to feel uncomfortable.

It would be so uncomfortable if I encountered some bloody plot of a hero saving the beauty again.

Anyway, Su Tian is a life-saving person. He honestly went back and forth between the hotel and the arena, and did not go out at will.

On the 8th, because the Cavaliers had just arrived in Chicago, Tyronn Lue did not arrange any particularly heavy training tasks.

The main reason is that the first two games gave Tyronn Lue a lot of confidence, and Tyronn Lue is also bound to win the third game.

On May 5, the team came to the United Center Arena in Chicago.

Facing a sea of ​​red, Su Tian couldn't help but think of a hot man.

Su Tian looked at the number 23 next to him, and then at the number 1 on the bull's side.Sigh the wonder of fate.

With time running out, the game begins.

Noah got angry, jumped high, and dialed the ball.

Rose stepped forward to grab the ball and stabilized it.

Steadily advancing to the frontcourt, facing Irving's defense, Rose did not hesitate and directly started a breakthrough.

Owen didn't expect Rose, who was slow just now, to suddenly become so fast.

He didn't keep up all of a sudden, and was pulled away by a body distance by Ross.

Love and Mozgov on the inside didn't react either.

Rose scored a layup.

Rose scored one at the beginning, which hurt morale a bit, and Owen was going to return one by himself.

Su Tian looked at the status of the Bulls from the sidelines and felt something was wrong.

The fighting spirit is too high!
It is understandable to be high-spirited, but it is too high-spirited.

Su Tian didn't understand why, but he vaguely felt that this was not good for the knights.

It's just that Su Tian is still a little transparent, obviously he can't say much.

Here Irving singled Rose, was interfered by Noah's help defense inside, and missed the basketball.

Turning around, Rose singled Irving again and made an extreme layup.

The Bulls led 4-0 at the start.

Tyronn Lue stood up from the bench, feeling something was wrong.
