Chapter 273 The five-game winning streak ends

Fortunately, within 3 minutes of the second quarter, the Pacers replaced Ye Xuan who had had enough rest time. After Ye Xuan came on the field, he was also very strong. They scored in every round, and within 1 minute, the point difference was pulled back to 8 points. In order not to give Ye Xuan too much room to play like this, the Bulls immediately replaced Jimmy Butler.

In fact, Jimmy Butler's physical fitness can indeed be described as a monster. In other words, the star players under Tom Thibodeau must have a durable body. There will always be at least one player who ranks in the top three in the average playing time per game in a single season. Thibodeau actually allowed him to average 38+ minutes per game last time when Rose played so hard. Now Jimmy Butler is also the same. Similarly, the average playing time is almost 40 minutes per game, which is exaggerated enough.

However, Thibodeau did not expect it, but replacing Jimmy Butler would not be able to pose too much threat to Ye Xuan. Relying on his own personal ability and the tacit cooperation between his teammates, although Ye Xuan faced Butler Defensively, but the offensive efficiency is still very impressive, so after another 2 minutes in the second quarter, the Bulls had to replace all their main players. Several of the main players were replaced, and Hibbert's position became Mahinmi.

The game is still the same, the offensive burden of the Pacers is basically on Ye Xuan alone, Ye Xuan's offensive pressure is too great, so he simply gave up on Rose's defense and turned to Shampoo Specially went to defend against Rose, and focused his energy on offense. In this way, although the offensive pressure on the Pacers team was much reduced, and Ye Xuan's physical pressure was also relieved, the Windy City Rose who had just returned was also defeated. let it out.

The second half of the second quarter basically turned into a crazy confrontation between Ye Xuan and Rose. Although Rose's state has not been particularly stable after returning from injury, and his offensive efficiency has also declined, but when no one double-teams Or when no one comes to specifically defend him, his offense is still very terrifying.

At the end of the second quarter, although the Pacers relied on Ye Xuan's 25 points on the offensive end to maintain the point difference at 6 points, but after this half of the game, the Pacers were already at a disadvantage. First of all, it is because of Ye Xuan's physical problems. This is a problem that the Pacers have always had. Although I don't know why Ye Xuan is so fierce in some games, he is so fierce in some games. Couldn't stand it for a minute.

Secondly, when Ye Xuan expended a lot of physical energy to attack the opponent's basket, the other players of the Bulls did not consume too much physical energy to supplement the defense. Basically, they let Jimmy Butler defend alone. Although Ye Xuan was given a chance to score, it also cut off Ye Xuan's passing route.Ye Xuan, who couldn't link up with his teammates, actually lost a little half of his power immediately.

Obviously, Coach Frank on the sidelines has also seen these problems, but what can they do, because he can basically only rely on Ye Xuan to drag the Pacers forward, and he has no other cards to play. up.

The halftime break ended soon, and the two sides began their second-half contest. The Bulls still let Jimmy Butler on the defensive end to contain Ye Xuan's performance, but on the offensive end, they were not going to let Rose continue to play. One-on-one, on the one hand, it is the distribution of the ball, which needs to take care of Butler's feelings. On the other hand, Rose has just returned, and it will not be good to be injured again.

So at the start of the second half, the Bulls changed their offensive strategy and focused their offense on Jimmy Butler and Pau Gasol. This style of play is actually quite similar to the Lakers back then. But Butler's shooting is really weak, so he can't support the role of 'Kobe', but apart from these two, the other positions of the Bulls are not weak, so although Ye Xuan played in the third quarter Throughout the quarter, they still didn't cause much trouble to the Bulls. The Bulls relied on their own multi-point drive, combined with internal and external, and still pulled the score to 11 points.

And for the Pacers, what makes them even more desperate is that Ye Xuan has exhausted a lot of energy after playing the third quarter. It is obviously not enough to want him to continue to help the team maintain the score. It's very possible, but it's not the same for the Bulls. Rose, who didn't show much in the third quarter, led a group of substitutes to grab points after Ye Xuan left the field. Although Ye Xuan found that something was wrong, he immediately applied to play , but was still led by Rose with a vote of substitutes and played an 8:2 small high, which directly opened the point difference to 17 points.

Afterwards, Ye Xuan returned to the court and led the team to play for a few more minutes. Seeing that there was no chance to catch up with the score, he simply gave up the game.

After Ye Xuan was replaced, the Pacers audience also seemed a little disappointed, but there was nothing they could do about it. Ye Xuan had already played very hard today, but there was nothing he could do alone.At the end of the game, the Pacers lost to the visiting Bulls at home. Ye Xuan played a total of 36 minutes in the game. In addition to the 25 points scored in the first half, Ye Xuan scored 49 points in the third quarter. They scored crazily from time to time. They scored 8 points and [-] assists in total. Unfortunately, the team still lost the game. Ye Xuan was forced to join the team again less than two months after successfully launching the team. Cut group.

After this game, doubts about whether the Pacers are a strong team sounded again, because the Pacers have basically never lost against these relatively strong teams. , although after losing this game, the Pacers can still rank third in the Eastern Conference, but the Bulls who just defeated them have now chased the victory to only one. The Dragons are also eyeing the Pacers' top four position in the East, which makes Coach Frank feel a burst of pressure.

Fortunately, the next few opponents are not particularly strong. The next opponent, the Heat, has now been reduced to a second-rate team after losing the thick leg of James, let alone their remaining two teams. Giants, Bosh and Wade both encountered injury problems.
