Basketball Myth: Super Guard

United Center Arena.

A game is about to be staged, the Bulls vs. the 76ers.

This is a focus battle. Last season, the two sides fought in six games in the Eastern Conference Finals. The final scene of the 76ers defeating the Bulls to advance to the Finals is still vivid.

The Bulls lost all in the three-year Eastern Conference Finals, and they were also called the "Eastern Finals Curse". Some even claimed that they would never be able to pass this hurdle.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, the loss of the Eastern Conference finals last season put the Bulls under pressure.

There is no doubt that they have been forced to the edge of the cliff, no matter what the cause is, it is a fact that they have been defeated three times and defeated three times.

If they can't break the spell this season, then the team will definitely change a lot, or a big player deal, or the head coach will be laid off...

And this season they want to break the spell, the 76ers will be their enemy.

Therefore, this will be a focus battle. It will be another collision between opponents in the Eastern Conference finals last season. It will be a test of the Bulls’ current lineup. It will also be another strong match between the two geniuses Rose and Qin Hao. Duel...

The auditorium was already full of people.

Mainly Bulls fans. They hold various banners with the words "kill the 76ers" written on them. They look forward to the team's shame and defeat the 76ers.

"Can we win this game?"

"We will definitely win. With the addition of Redick, our main lineup has become more perfect and Rose has become stronger. This season we are stronger than last season and we will definitely be able to beat the 76ers."

"Well, this time, we must be ashamed. As long as we can win the 76ers this time, it proves that we are now enough to beat the 76ers and wait until the playoffs..."

For this game, fans have placed a lot of expectations.

This season the Bulls traded Hinrich and signed Redick, making the main lineup more perfect, but the 76ers are also improving.

So, are the Bulls stronger or the 76ers stronger now?

This can only be known after playing it.

As long as the Bulls can win, then the fans will have confidence.

At seven o'clock in the evening, players from both sides arrived.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became a bit solemn, and a tense atmosphere was permeating. Rose and Qin Hao just nodded in the air, and did not embrace.

The flat-headed brother did not show a flattering smile this time, but straightened his face and stood with his teammates, because this game is very meaningful.

Butler curled his lips, and made a threatening action of "You kid, be careful of me" at Brother Flathead, and turned to Qin Hao, "It's just a regular season. They don't need to be so serious, right? It's like we have hatred. ."

"It's all good." Qin Hao smiled: "If you face the Heat, the Bulls will be serious. Everyone has murderous in their eyes."

"Uh..." Butler was speechless.

But it’s not surprising to think about it. After all, the Bulls’ three-year spell, the 76ers only counted once. The first two defeats in the Eastern Conference finals, but they all lost to the Heat.

Players from both sides began to warm up.

Even during the warm-up, the fans in the audience booed at the 76ers, mixed with all kinds of verbal abuse.

But what makes the 76ers players very depressed is that those verbal abuses seem to deliberately avoid Qin Hao, Butler, and Xiaoka, and only target other players.

Because everyone knows that Qin Hao, Butler, Xiaoka and Rose are good brothers.

"That's a terrible thing, play differently."

"Why do you only spray us? If you have the ability to spray with Qin, you will cry out if he waits and doesn't fight."

Several players cursed in low voices and complained.

Qin Hao is also very helpless. Isn't the Bulls fans fanning the flames and splitting up? You are even scolding Jimmy and Xiaoka together. You are welcome, you can share the blessings and share the difficulties.

On the contrary, the Bulls players on the opposite side seemed very calm and didn't make any irritation, but the eyes were cold, and the pressure on people was stronger than those verbal abuses.

......

At 7:30 in the evening, the game officially started.

When the two sides came to the field, the 76ers were still a big and four juniors, and the Bulls started with Noah, Boozer, Roll Deng, Redick and Rose.

First jumped the ball and the Bulls got the ball. Rose didn’t worry about attacking after arriving on the frontcourt. He used the pick-and-roll to break through, then divided the ball and gave it to Roll Deng. Roll Deng took the ball to speed up and hit the inside and the arm. Hold high and score with a toss.

The 76ers fought back, but ended up in a fight. Butler shook his wrist and muttered to himself: "I still haven't rested, it feels a bit cold."

Turning around, the Bulls immediately scored another one, from Noah, who played singles against Nene, one back turned and put the ball in, which attracted the audience to applaud.

In the next few rounds, the Bulls' offensive efficiency was very high, scoring again and again, while the 76ers were fighting again and again.

This is the sequelae of the devil away game. Although they took a day off, their physical and mental states were not restored to a good state.

"Huh!"

With a soft noise, Rose scored the ball to Redick and Redick made a three-pointer.

This time, assistant Harry couldn't help himself, and said to Coach Luke: "Coach, do you want to call a timeout? We are already 8 points behind."

A few minutes before the first quarter, the 76ers are 8 points behind, which is obviously not a good start.

Another point is that the Bulls are really good. Roller Deng, Noah, Redick, and Rose all scored. Obviously they are in good shape today, and they have inside offense and outside shooting. This allows the 76ers to do this. The side's defense is a little overwhelming.

"Yeah." Coach Luke nodded and called a timeout.

As for the lack of offensive efficiency during this period, he can understand that the sequelae of the devil's away game, the state has not been adjusted, and it will take some time.

but......

"Compared to last season, the Bulls have indeed become stronger." Coach Luke frowned slightly and his eyes fell on a few Bulls players. "The addition of Redick makes the Bulls lineup more perfect offensively. As an offensive starting point, Rose can attract defenses and create opportunities for other players. Other players are very pragmatic players and do not need to occupy the ball, but when opportunities arise, they can be well grasped."

"Even if we focus on restricting Rose, the Bulls and Rolle Deng, the second offensive starting point, are very balanced whether it is inside or outside, or forward."

Coach Luke also had to sigh, the Bulls trade to Redick is really a good move.

The original Bulls' lineup was balanced enough, with Noah and Boozer on the inside, Roll Deng on the front line, and Rose on the outside line. It is difficult to improve.

Now that Redick has such a three-point shooter, it is a bit higher.
