"It's normal to have disputes over penalty decisions. Referees are also human beings, and their view of the game will be affected by subjective factors.

Sometimes, it may be our players' fault, and the referee's judgment is correct.

We will have different thoughts and behave differently because of our own interests.

Of course, sometimes referees make mistakes, fail to see clearly what happened at that moment, and are confused by some diving behavior. "

During the post-match interview, many reporters brought up the conflict between Dunn and the referee at the beginning of the game.

The Bulls played away from home tonight and won the game by more than double digits even though the referee was clearly biased. So the game didn't seem that important.

Reporters are more concerned about whether Dunn will launch a new round of battle against the referee after the game, or whether he has any thoughts about James, who recently won the regular season MVP?

However, after winning G1, Du En had no intention of continuing to provoke the referee.

Whatever happens in the game will be left to be resolved in the game. Now that the game is over, just let the matter end normally.

Besides, there was no need for Du En to make enemies with others. They were just following orders.

To take a step back, even if the referee has selfish motives and hates Du En, he can only suffer a loss first and then find an opportunity to get revenge.

It is easy for NBA referees to use chicken feathers as arrows to accept tasks from the league or do some dirty work in private.

As the saying goes, those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. People who often do bad things can easily become villains.

And if you encounter such people, unless you can kill them at once, it is best to avoid them as much as possible.

As the saying goes - the king of hell is easy to see, but the devil is difficult to deal with!

Duan plays in the NBA and will definitely have to deal with referees in the future.

If you hire a private detective but still fail to catch the referee, or if you send the person to jail, you can only turn the conflict into friendship in advance.

For now, the next G2 game is also an away game. If the referees are offended, it will be even more difficult to play.

What's more, it will be more difficult to play back at home.

Of course, Du En cannot hold back forever. If there is a referee who keeps looking for trouble, Du En can also use the energy behind him.

However, the time is not yet ripe. If Nike dominates the NBA, maybe it won't matter if Duan beats the referee to blood.

But now that Stern is still in charge of the NBA, and Nike is still developing and growing, Dunn can only calm down, hide his capabilities and bide his time.

Fortunately, Duan is now also one of the faces of the NBA. With three consecutive championships and an Olympic gold medal, he has achieved some historical status and star influence.

From tonight's game, the referees did not dare to add technical fouls and walked around Du En. It can be seen that the referees did not dare to use their rights to target Du En excessively.

This means that even if Duane suffers unfair treatment on the court, he can still put pressure on the referee on the court.

Duen's knee is relatively hard and he has not been injured so far. In addition, the team's strength is not bad, and it is not yet at the point where he needs to kneel for support.

Getting back to business, tonight's post-game interview came to a successful conclusion as Duan responded to the regular season MVP battle with James.

The reporters returned home excited and worked all night to catch up on the story.

Du En also followed Bull and his party and quickly returned to the hotel.

However, there is a bit of a security problem in Cleveland these days. Although it is better than Detroit, I still heard the sound of "fireworks and firecrackers" on the way.

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with wanting to move the family to the South Coast or Los Angeles where the security environment is better. For the sake of the family, it is not a bad thing.

After spending a day in the hotel, time quickly came to May 5, and G20 of the Eastern Conference Finals continued to be played at the Quicken Loans Center.

After the G1 defeat, the Cavaliers coaching staff learned from the experience and quickly came up with some winning strategies.

As soon as the game started, Duen also noticed that the Cavaliers' defensive method had been adjusted tonight. They no longer played zone defense, but focused on man-marking.

In other words, the Cavaliers no longer frequently double-team Duen who is holding the ball. In this game, Duen will have a lot of opportunities to attack in isolation.

However, after Duen took the ball and hit it a few times, Duen finally understood the knight's true intention.

The main thing is to cut off Duan's connection with other teammates, forcing the Bulls to fight independently and only rely on singles to score.

When Du En lets go, scoring 40 or 50 points in a game is not a big problem, but Du En's scoring alone is not enough to win the game.

Judging from the game situation in G1, if the Bulls want to defeat the Cavaliers, other players need to score or points.

This means that if the Bulls want to win, they must not only see how many points Duan scores, but also how many points other players can score if they step up.

If there is no interference from the referee, then it is not a problem for the other Bulls players to score 40 or 50 points in a game, and it is even possible to score 80 or 90 points.

The problem is, after this year's playoffs, how can the Bulls players not understand the league's attitude?

Not to mention the G1 game, the double standards in the penalty scale have seriously affected the result of the game.

He was also deeply impressed by this. Duen realized early on how harmful the Cavaliers' defensive adjustments would be.

If other Bulls play alone with the ball, they will definitely encounter some trouble.

In order to reduce the troubles encountered in the game and at the same time increase the shooting percentage, the Bulls need someone to connect the team and create simple ball scoring opportunities for other teammates.

The problem is that in today's Bulls, the only two people who can connect the team are Duane and Cassell.

Ben Gordon and John Salmons are both half-assed.

It is worth mentioning that compared to last year, Cassel is one year older, and because he has been bringing in substitutes, his abilities in all aspects have declined.

It is impossible for Du En to rely on Cassel alone.

If Cassel is not in good condition, fails to score offensively, gets called out on defense, and fails to help his teammates score effectively through organization alone, then this game may be over for the Bulls.

In order to ensure victory in this game, and also to activate his teammates as soon as possible, Du En kept holding the ball to the inside as early as the first quarter, and took the initiative to challenge the height of the Cavaliers inside.

Du En's main purpose when he went to the inside was to find his teammates inside and feed them cakes.

However, with the intervention of the referee, feeding the cake has not become so easy.

In addition to alley-oops, most of the Bulls' offenses that require re-attacking the basket after receiving the ball will be subject to relatively large defensive actions.

Basically, the Bulls' interior players were violated seven or eight times before they got a chance to stand on the free throw line.

If it's a two plus one opportunity, then it's basically impossible to blow the whistle.

It was also because the referee turned a blind eye and Duen was saving energy to help his teammates score first, so the Bulls did not establish much of a point lead in the first quarter.

After more than eight minutes of the first quarter, when Duan came off the court to rest, the score was 19 to 15, and the Bulls only had a 4-point lead. When Duane came off the court and Cassell came on, the effect of connecting the team was not good, and the Bulls' scoring speed also dropped a bit.

And because the Bulls had done a lot of routine defense before and were called for off-ball fouls, the Bulls quickly accumulated the number of fouls, and the Cavaliers almost tied the point difference with free throws.

After the first quarter, the score on the field reached 24 to 22, and the point difference was narrowed to 2 points.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, Duan returned to the court and finally started to exert force.

The Cavaliers are indeed good this season, but their forward players are not very good except for James.

Although James failed to guard Duen in the first quarter, with his personal physical talent, he did not let Duen get what he asked for.

But at the beginning of the second quarter, James was still resting off the court, so Duan naturally began to travel at staggered times.

Duan plays very simply, just three-pointers from the outside and a transition attack.

Although due to the penalty scale, the Bulls had to give up some rebounds.

But Du En was indeed in good shape at the beginning of the second quarter. Even if he hit the ball, he relied on his height and wingspan to basically ignore interference and take shots. Almost everyone looked like he could score.

In the end, at the beginning of the second quarter, Duan made 5 of 3 three-pointers, plus 3 assists to his teammates in transition. The Bulls beat the Cavaliers 15 to 6, and the point difference suddenly widened to two points. number of digits.

However, in the second half, the Cavaliers players' defensive actions became bigger and worse in order to win.

The on-site referee naturally continued to pretend not to see the Cavaliers players' actions, making the game ugly.

Originally, the Bulls players were just disgusted.

But what I didn't expect was that the situation suddenly escalated quickly.

Delonte West was in poor form tonight, hitting three consecutive goals in the third quarter.

Facing Dunn's defense and Garnett's inside defense, James was also restricted in scoring, so he had to worry.

The Cavaliers' strategy tonight is to use defense to limit the Bulls' scoring, but if they want to win, someone still needs to step up and score.

However, in the third quarter, Duan maintained his condition well and continued to help the Bulls seize the score at critical moments.

As the Cavaliers' own scoring ability has declined and they have begun to strike frequently, the possibility of the Bulls continuing to win 5-on-8 games has become more and more likely. The Cavaliers can only change their style of play.

Duane actually didn't notice what happened on the court. He only saw John Salmons fall to the ground after shooting.

When Duan noticed this scene, James happened to walk towards the referee with his hands spread out.

It is worth mentioning that the referee did not call James a foul...

In order to understand the situation, and at the same time put pressure on the referee as soon as possible to seek justice for John Salmons, Dunn had to find other teammates to understand the situation.

I just learned the truth. It was someone who deliberately stretched out his foot and stepped on John Salmons.

But at this moment, the Cavaliers players on the field were still arguing: "Did you see it? Didn't you see any qualifications to say it was a stepping stone?"

Because the referee didn't say it was James' foul, so after arguing with the referee for a few words, Dunn had no choice but to accept the result in front of him - John Salmons was attacked by Cleveland's Shadowless Kick and was carried off. .

Considering that the referee could not see the moves or stepping, in order to ensure the victory of this series, Duen still gave a warning to other teammates on the scene.

Not everyone has Kobe's experience in guarding against missteps, and of course even Kobe can stumble.

Therefore, in order to avoid the attack of the shadowless kick as much as possible, the Bulls reduced the number of jump shots from the outside and focused more on attacking the basket with the ball. If they could no longer score suddenly, let teammates in the wide open space on the outside take shots.

James' defensive energy is mainly focused on Duan, and it is impossible to chase and attack other Bulls players on a large scale.

The Bulls also continued to consolidate their scoring advantage due to changes in play style and their own caution.

Although the Cavaliers have strengthened their defense, they have been unable to find touch on the outside.

James' best offensive method was also blocked by Duane and Garnett. The Cavaliers could only try to score more points in the paint.

However, the pace of the game tonight was not slow. The Bulls kept trying to switch offenses. Big Z also did not perform well offensively under the basket in the second half due to physical problems.

The Bulls once again had the last laugh thanks to their stable performance on both offense and defense.

93 to 88, the Bulls once again won the Eastern Conference Finals with a 5-point advantage.

It's 2-0 in the away game, so in the next home game, we can't keep up our efforts and directly take away the Cavaliers?

Although the Bulls management is still looking for opportunities to sell more tickets, the problem is that John Salmons was injured in G2 of the Eastern Conference Finals due to human factors.

John Salmons' performance in this year's playoffs is remarkable. Even if he is not the main player, he is still an extremely important rotation player.

After the news that John Salmons was eliminated for the season and the playoffs ended early came back to Chicago, the Bulls management did not dare to say anything more.

Who knows what will happen in the next game?

In order for the Bulls to retain enough strength to win the finals, they can only make a quick decision for now.

However, the Bulls still underestimated the determination of the league, or Stern did not want to be slapped in the face so soon.

After Duan and his team returned to Chicago, they found that there was not much difference in penalty standards between home and away games.

Fortunately, Bulls players are still more familiar with playing at the United Center.

After returning to the United Center, the Bulls players' scoring efficiency is much higher than before at the Quicken Loans Center.

In addition, the fans at the scene were constantly putting pressure on the referees and Cavaliers players, and the Cavaliers' own offensive level was really limited.

These multiple factors were entangled together, causing the Cavaliers to once again find themselves in a situation where the mud could not support the wall.

The Bulls once again completed three kills against the Cavaliers in a 5-on-8 game witnessed by all the fans.

102 to 90, the Bulls once again hit a double-digit point difference and won the game.

At this point, the Eastern Conference finals series has reached 3-0, and it is basically impossible for the Cavaliers to turn defeat into victory.

It can only be said that the configuration of Morris and Delonte West is still a bit poor.

It's okay to play in the regular season, but it's a bit reluctant in the playoffs.

Not to mention that against a strong defending champion like the Bulls, once the offense fails to produce results, the Bulls will turn it into a cash machine.

There is no doubt that if the Cavaliers want to go further, they must continue to recruit All-Star players.

However, this is the internal view of the Cavaliers, while most outside media have shouted: "It is difficult for the Cleveland Cavaliers to win, and LeBron James must show MVP standards!"

Of course, there are also those who are just watching the excitement and saying that James is not worthy of MVP, and he is not even qualified to be ranked second in MVP. (End of chapter)
