From today on is the king

Chapter 851. 850. A Leap in Defensive End
For the Bulls, Hinrich, Duhon, Luol Deng, Antonio Davis, and Eddie Curry made their debut.

After coming to the middle circle, Eddie Curry sprayed Kwame Brown: "Why are you so cool, parallel imports."

Eddy Curry was annoyed at Kwame Brown's dismissive look.

Sure enough, this guy asked, and he talked trash. Kwame Brown is now immune to the word "parallel import champion", especially to these few people in the same class, because he is now the best. He regards these people as jealousy because they can't eat grapes.

Kwame Brown remembered what Liu Mang said when he encountered this situation, leaned closer to Eddie Curry, and said, "Ace is very angry, and the consequences are serious."

"watt?"

"Calm down, both of you."

Eddie Curry also wanted to ask what this meant. The referee thought they were arguing. The scene was too noisy. Kwame Brown leaned closer to what Eddie Curry said. The referee next to him didn't hear what was said, but because the two teams were now being hyped by the media.

Eddie Curry saw the look on Kwame Brown's face, and couldn't help looking at Liu Mang, who happened to be looking at him too. Eddie Curry saw Liu Mang's eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.

"These guys..." Eddie Curry felt that palpitation again.

Liu Mang's goal has been achieved, giving the other party psychological hints is useless now, it may make the other party fear him even more, but if even the other party's fear of him has not won him, then the role of such psychological hints will be highlighted...

……

The referee saw that the two teams were in good positions, pointed to both sides, blew the whistle to start the game, and threw the ball into the air.

Kwame Brown wins the jumper over Eddie Curry by a clear margin.

"Get back and defend!" Very rarely, Eddie Curry shouted to his teammates to retreat, and ran back immediately after landing.

The rest of the Bulls saw that Eddie Curry was so active in defense, and felt that Eddie Curry was a different person when he met the Eagles. They sighed secretly that they really needed a strong opponent to make Eddie Curry "serious", which made them feel very excited-the fat guy can still be saved, but ordinary opponents can't make him "serious".

Serious Eddie Curry drove the enthusiasm of the Bulls and quickly retreated into place.

After receiving the ball, Liu Reck immediately passed it to McGrady. Liu recklessly rushed to the frontcourt. The Bulls adjusted their defense very quickly. Hinrich was in place. Breaking through a hundred, he went straight to the basket from next to Luol Deng.

McGrady passed the ball to Liu Mang in time.

Liu Mang cuts to the free throw line to catch the ball and goes straight to the basket. Eddie Curry actively defends him. Liu Mang grabs the ball with his right hand and jumps up to face Eddie Curry. He throws his right hand diagonally to the rear. Eddie Curry, who was already very active today and was made more active by Kwame Brown's words, rushed towards the rushing Kwame Brown, but he did not see the ball!

Liu Mang took the ball back in the air, switched to his left hand, lifted his left hand from bottom to top, and made an easy layup.

The ability to finish at the basket is getting stronger and stronger, and Eddie Curry, who is active but has never defended well and has no defensive experience, easily teased the opponent.

It is a bad thing for the opponent to become more motivated, but sometimes, they can be used well. What Liu Mang is best at is to take advantage of the opponent's loopholes in this aspect, mainly because their physical fitness is much better than the opponent.

In the transition between offense and defense, Liu Mang retreated quickly after scoring a goal. The rest of the Eagles had already retreated when Liu Mang threw the ball to the basket, very decisively.

After the Bulls came to the frontcourt, they were heavily marked by the Eagles' single defense. After Hinrich came over, Liu Mang stepped up to defend him and kept giving him physical contact. Hinrich played badly every time he met Liu Mang, but he protected the ball very well and did not panic.

Originally, Hinrich wanted to find a pick-and-roll. Seeing that Eddie Curry was very active in the inside position at the beginning of the game, with Kwame Brown stuck behind him, Hinrich was overjoyed and lobbed the ball to Eddie Curry.

Eddie Curry is very confident, very confident. After defeating the Eagles last time, he got the news from his agent that the Bulls and his team are more active in negotiating a contract extension. Now Ace Curry wants to speed up the contract renewal negotiations, so the Eagles played very seriously and actively. They were targeted like Kwame Brown and Liu Mang, and they were more aggressive in getting the ball.

Kwame Brown tried his best to fight against Eddie Curry, making it more difficult for the opponent to position, but he was still not stuck, and was asked by Eddie Curry to receive the ball.

When Eddie Curry received the ball, Rasheed Wallace let go of Antonio Davis to double-team, and Eddie Curry immediately distributed the ball to Antonio Davis in the middle distance on the left. This guy has a mid-range shot!
As soon as Antonio Davis received the ball, Liu Mang was already in place to supplement the defense. Antonio Davis was taken aback. The opponent's defensive rotation was too fast today!
Fortunately, Antonio Davis responded in a timely manner. He raised the ball without being caught by Liu Mang's hand, and quickly passed it to the top arc.

As soon as Hinrich received the ball, McGrady blocked it. Hinrich immediately passed it to Duhon. Rasheed Wallace has already expanded from the inside to defend Duhon!

Everything went as expected, and in fact, this was exactly the defensive rotation the Hawks had expected.

Having played against the Bulls once, the Eagles have already had an impression of the Bulls' internal and external passing and receiving. In addition, they have played against the Bulls and the Mavericks once in a row. The Eagles themselves have also learned something, and the defensive rotation has become more organized. Unlike before, they are slowly groping, learning from teams that already have a very mature defensive rotation, and improving faster!

Being so oppressed by the Eagles, the Bulls had less than 10 seconds left to attack. Luol Deng ran out to ask for the ball, and Hinrich immediately passed to Luol Deng, the starting outside single point.

Facing Prince, Luol Deng feinted twice to no avail. Prince was too calm, so calm that Luol Deng wanted to pass the ball, but he was the strongest single player in the starting lineup besides Eddie Curry. He had no chance to shoot directly. Luol Deng bit the bullet and rushed inside.

It actually rushed from the bottom line to the position close to the bottom line quite smoothly!Luol Deng himself was surprised. At the middle distance of the baseline, Luol Deng turned over and shot a jumper!
This is what he does best...

As soon as he jumped, he grabbed the ball to his chest, and before it reached his neck, he was pressed on the ball by a hand protruding diagonally from behind!

Prince deliberately let Luol Deng break to the bottom line, forming a pincer attack with Liu Mang!

The two have been partners for so long, and Liu Mang and Prince's defensive tacit understanding is very good. Without any hint, Liu Mang knew the other party's intentions, and when Luol Deng rushed to the bottom line with his back turned to him, Liu Mang stretched out his evil big hand and accurately blocked the shot when Luol Deng turned around!

Prince grabbed the ball and immediately passed it to McGrady who ran back to the free throw line to catch up. Liu Mang was almost down.

The Bulls retreated quickly and chased after Liu Mang.

After rushing to the frontcourt, Liu Mang received a lob from McGrady. After entering the three-point line, he immediately took three big steps, grabbed the ball and threw it to the right.

Hinrich and Du Hong, who came back from the chase, were "not fooled" and felt that Liu Mang was going to play a fake fax shot again, but Liu Mang really passed the ball this time and threw the ball to the rear right. Kwame Brown who rushed over received the ball and took off immediately, gliding one step inside the free throw line and dunking with both hands!

too fast!This is not the point, the point is that I can dance too much!

The reason why Du Hong and Hinrich felt that Liu Mang was trying to play tricks on them by playing fake fax shots was because Kwame Brown had just entered the three-point line. Even if Kwame Brown was fast, he would at most go to the free throw line.

But I didn't expect Kwame Brown's physical fitness to be too irritable, almost a flying dunk with his heel on the free throw line!

And the most important point is that Liu Wei did not shoot directly when his teammates were following up and the defenders were two small guards. Liu Wei's playing style has been understood by many people. With such a little chance, he must shoot the kind, especially when he has the advantage of rebounding.

The Bulls were so confident before, because their impression of the last game against the Eagles was that they chased the 18-point difference in the second half and dragged the game into overtime. That kind of halftime brought confidence.

The impression of Liu Mang is also the impression that Liu Mang played very alone in the second half of the last game.

But now, they remembered that there was more than half a game in that game, and when the Eagles were serious in the first half, they led them by 18 points at halftime!
In this game, the Eagles were more serious than in the first half of the previous match. In the last match, the Eagles still had a "play" mentality in it. The Bulls were overshadowed at the beginning of the game, making them think that Liu Mang was going to score points and quickly gained the lead. Then the mentality relaxed. So during the intermission, McGrady relaxed and smiled so that Liu Mang could play easily in the second half.

It is mainly because of this that the Bulls have the prerequisites for a comeback.

The Eagles' defense is already good, but because of the new offensive tactics, new defensive strategies are needed, so they are still adjusting. After having such a good defensive "model team" like the Bulls and Mavericks, Mike Woodson has found a feeling. Defense is not only about enthusiasm and defensive awareness. Sometimes experience and "predicting" the opponent's offensive passing route in advance will also play a big role.

Since the Hawks' starters are all players with good defensive awareness, they are very suitable for quick rotation defense. With new things, the defense has been improved a lot at once.

The game was tested at the beginning, and the effect was very good, and then the players played more firmly.

But the Bulls can't stand it!

They were beaten 4-0 at the beginning of the game, and then they missed 4 consecutive shots. Eddie Curry was double-teamed when he received the ball, and was pressed by the Eagles' fast-rotating defense when he passed it out, consuming the Bulls' offensive time.

This was originally the Bulls' best defense, but it was learned by the Eagles!
Finally, in the new tactical system, the Eagles have also integrated the most important part of the previous tactical system-returning the other's way to the other's body!
This is a qualitative improvement for the Eagles!
The Bulls' defensive strategy is very powerful. Coach Skiles is a very good coach. They don't need to think about how to deal with their own defense. The Eagles are better than them in physical fitness and have faster defensive rotation. Unlike the Bulls, most of them are first-, second-, and at most fourth-year players. With experienced players like McGrady and Rasheed Wallace, they are better than the Bulls' own team defense!
It’s true that the Bulls are talented and strong, but they are a young team after all. In the first half of the last game, the Eagles had an absolute advantage. It was only in the second half that they killed themselves and Eddie Curry’s outburst defeated the Eagles in an upset.

In the last game against the Bulls, the reason why the Hawks were turned in the second half was that apart from Eddie Curry and Ben Gordon running wild, there was another key reason. The Eagles gave up their good rhythm in the first half in the third quarter. Liu Mang started playing singles in the second half, and the rhythm suddenly slowed down, allowing the Bulls, who were already good at controlling the rhythm and balancing offense and defense, to take the lead. Taking advantage of Eddie Curry's rampage, Ben Gordon also got to play, dragging the game into overtime in one fell swoop and a dramatic danger win.

But this time, the Eagles were very focused from the beginning, and on the defensive end, Mike Woodson learned two styles of fast-rotation defense from the Bulls and Mavericks, which significantly improved the Eagles' fast-rotation defense.

This time the Eagles' defense has improved significantly. After a 4-0 start, they prevented the opponent from missing four shots in a row. The Eagles played a 12-0 start!Forced the Bulls to call a timeout.

But the timeout didn't help much either. The Eagles played a wave of 3-12 in 0 minutes. In the next 9 minutes, the Bulls only scored 12 points. Although after the timeout, the Bulls defensively retreated faster and the defensive pressure became stronger. The enthusiasm of the Bulls prevented the Eagles from scoring only 9 points in the next 18 minutes of the first quarter.
The Eagles scored 30 to 12 in a single quarter!
