Forward to the basket

Chen Feng's convulsion-like vicious performance caused Skiles to keep pacing back and forth on the sidelines. He didn't expect that the Bulls had an opportunity to counterattack, but the kid took the lead.

Originally, Skiles had already explained it during the halftime break. When he comes up next time, he will use the cooperation of inside and outside lines to tear apart the opponent's defense line, and use the time at the beginning of the third quarter to attack the opponent violently.

The feeling of being firmly locked by the Celtics in the second quarter was simply too uncomfortable. Skiles didn't want to experience it again. He just wanted to take advantage of the short slack after the break to make time difference .

He has even thought about it, as long as the attack in the first two or three minutes can lead the score again, it doesn't need to be too much, just six or seven points, and he is sure to slowly fight the Celtics.

After all, this is the home court of the Bulls. Once they take the lead and gain momentum, those little calves will be excited again. They are a group of guys who play with passion, so maybe what they will do.

And this is their territory, if they always let their opponents lead them by the nose, let alone they are not happy, it is estimated that those fanatical fans will not agree.

Although the fans were cheering for them throughout the first half, if the Celtics were allowed to control the rhythm and drag themselves to death in the second half, who knows if the fans would turn back.

So in any case, Skiles wants to change, at least he needs to make the team's offense sharpen, put a certain amount of pressure on the opponent, let the Bostonians start to make mistakes, and the offense must be played out!

No matter how bad it is, it is still much better than the dry rhythm and slow offense in the second quarter. Skiles knows that that kind of slow rhythm and style of play is the last situation the Bulls want to encounter now. .

They are not afraid to compete with the Suns, but they are afraid to grind their basic skills against the Spurs. It's not that the Bulls haven't laid a good foundation, but it's just that it's a bit too embarrassing for that kid to play with a sophistication.

It is not so easy for a group of young calves who have just entered the league for more than two years to control their mood swings. Once they lose their psychological balance, something may happen.

The Bulls are still fighting you with passion. If it's a tit-for-tat score, like in the first quarter, they can play an unusual offense.

But once the rhythm enters the positional battle, or it is necessary to go through frequent physical contact to get an offensive opportunity, this makes Hinrich or Gordon a little bit at a loss and loses their shooting rhythm.

Especially Hinrich and Nocioni, as long as they are in the position and the speed drops, when they confront Rondo or Pierce, they can't find the touch, and the hit rate is all kinds of unreliable. Son.

Even the live DJ of the Bulls sighed helplessly on the sidelines, "If Kirk is accurate, he can shoot any ball, but if he is bad, even a junior high school student can beat him with shooting."

Originally, Hinrich, who had already shot 45% this season, always trembled involuntarily when facing Rondo's entanglement and Chen Feng's beast, not to mention his shooting percentage.

This guy didn't have the usual touch at all, and even the heroic state of the first quarter seemed to be drained in the second quarter, only an embarrassing one-for-six shooting. If there were no free throws, he would only score two points.

Hinrich is unstable, and Gordon basically can't expect to be much more stable. Compared with Hinrich, his shooting may be more erratic.

On the other hand, the Celtics will be able to stabilize and play against you, mainly because Auerbach laid a good foundation. According to the old man, to play for the Celtics, you must know how to execute tactics .

Whether it's a fast-break counterattack or a positional battle after being positioned, as long as the opportunity is not available, you can pass until the last second, as long as you make sure that you can cause damage to the opponent, Auerbach doesn't care if you use it for one second or 20 seconds.

The Celtics are able to hold their breath. Even if the scene is ugly, they can still be as stable as Mount Tai. This is the kind of coaching that Rivers followed Auerbach. He tried not to follow the rhythm of the opponent. .

Just like when Chen Feng was strangled at the basket in the second quarter, Rivers still allowed the players to stare at the opponent's scoring points, slowing down the entire rhythm, in order not to be killed by the opponent's attack .

When the tempo slows down, the Bulls' scoring will be weaker, and even in terms of shooting percentage, they will be a few percentage points behind the Celtics. This is probably not expected by most people, including Skiles. Own.

In order to prevent this embarrassing situation from recurring, the tactic Skiles specified during the intermission was to allow the players to rush up and get back the feeling of scoring high points.

Just like in the first quarter, use the score to make the opponent panic, and then wait for the opponent to make a mistake, especially those guys on the outside, they must put their sharp horns on the opponent's chest!

However, Skiles' wishful thinking hadn't started yet, and he was confused by Chen Feng's wild blow. The kid didn't wait for the Bulls to charge up, but took the first step.

It would have been fine if it was just a block against Hinrich, but as soon as Chen Feng made a move, the Bulls, who were directly disturbed, started to panic again, because that guy's destructive power was really too strong.

If it was said that in the second quarter, Chen Feng was fighting Wallace on the inside, then in the third quarter, he didn't care who was behind him, and started to attack the Bulls' outside scoring points without hesitation.

Regardless of whether it was Hinrich who was slapped on the floor by him just now, or Gordon, or Nocioni, as long as these guys are going to rush inside with the ball, they will definitely bump into Chen Feng head-on.

Rondo, Pierce, and Tony Allen are stationed on the perimeter. If the opponent throws a three-pointer, they will open their hands to interfere and try not to let them have a chance to make a comfortable shot.

If the goal is scored, then they are considered lucky, if not, Chen Feng and Jefferson will naturally compete with PJ Brown and Wallace for rebounds.

Although Wallace didn't get a few chances to score in the second quarter when Chen Feng was sleepy, but Chen Feng was still not suppressed by him in the offensive and defensive rebound competition, and the two of them fought equally.

Wallace has experience, precise positioning, and full of strength, but Chen Feng's jumping ability is amazing, and he is also vigorous enough. Even if the positioning is not so precise sometimes, he can use his long arms to recover from disadvantages.

In general, the rebounds on both sides are evenly divided. On the defensive end, they can control the rebounds. On the offensive end, whoever is lucky enough will win.

With Jefferson and Chen Feng at the basket, Pierce and the others can safely defend on the outside, but this time their only change is that once the opponent breaks through and enters, they will definitely chase to the end.

In the first two quarters of the game, if the opponent breaks through and goes in, the Celtics may directly choose to switch positions to defend. The big man comes out to block, and then the player who is out of position retreats to the side to help defend.

But this time is completely different, no matter how they are passed by the opponent, they will choose to turn around and chase desperately.

Because these guys all know that as long as they catch up, even if they can't be stopped immediately, Chen Feng will come out inside to intercept the opponent's breakthrough.

As long as the speed of the opponent can be contained, there will be a double-team defense. This kind of well-structured defense makes Hinrich and the others a little miserable.

Moreover, Chen Feng rushed very hard, and Jefferson was behind him to defend. Another most important point is that Wallace's offensive ability is almost equal to zero. As long as he is not allowed to slam dunk or rebound, it is almost useless. Chen Feng dared to shoot his mid-range jumper casually. As long as there was a little interference, "Big Ben" would often be unable to make a shot. This made Skiles stand on the sidelines and could only fight with both hands.

No way!It doesn't matter whoever becomes the head coach. Wallace's scoring ability is not good, and it hasn't been a day or two. Since the day he entered the league, he has been a standard blue-collar, and scoring has always been a weakness.

And if someone interfered, the old guy wouldn't even talk about scoring. Jefferson wasn't a vegetarian in the first place, so if he defended against such a No. [-] insider with a negative scoring ability, he would be handy anyway.

Chen Feng just jumped out like that, not only because his movement speed could guarantee the retreat and defense, but also because he knew that Jefferson could fill him up and completely strangle Wallace to death.

Even if Wallace can pass the ball to PJ Brown, Chen Feng still has enough time to retreat to the basket to defend. It may be a bit tiring to single out Wallace, but if he kills the old guy Brown, Chen Feng still has a certain degree of confidence.

Like that steal, PJ Brown obviously suffered from low-post movement, he never thought that Chen Feng could sneak over so fast, and Chen Feng sent the racket flying when he was inattentive.

The Bulls' inside offense was not intended to be the main point of attack, but this time, let alone, how to focus on it, Wallace's shooting percentage, Brown's low post moves, unless Skiles is crazy.

The perimeter that had placed high hopes, plus Chen Feng's meddling, Skiles' tactical arrangement, now all fell through. With Chen Feng double-teaming inside, unless he stopped immediately for a jump shot after breaking through, he would be caught by two people. Direct pinching, and the pass may be interrupted, which makes Hinrich and his group quite depressed.

And the Celtics are not only so defensive, but after a successful steal or pinch, they will either play a fast-break counterattack, or slowly grind against you after being positioned.

Chen Feng made Skiles scratch his head even more, because the little beast put Wallace on the defensive end, but he was on the offensive end, and this kid just rushed to the basket with all his strength.

Regardless of whether there was a chance or not, Chen Feng just rushed forward, even if he felt like he couldn't get in with the ball, he would still charge.

If the opportunity is not in place, he will not make a shot. Even if he is squeezed to the basket, he will find an opportunity to pass the ball, but he will not stop at all in physical contact and confrontation. He is completely forcing Wallace to carry himself hard.

Skiles wasn't an idiot. It wasn't that he couldn't see Feng Chen's intentions. That kid was playing a war of attrition with the Bulls. On the defensive end, as long as he wasn't competing for rebounds, he would try not to fight Wallace.

But his interference with the outside line has become a serious problem for the Bulls, even a threat!

And on the offensive end, he tried his best to rush Wallace, first to cause Wallace's foul, and second, to pursue confrontation purely head-on, relying on his body to fight against "Big Ben".

That's right, Wallace is the best defensive player in the nba, but this guy is 32 years old. Although his physique is still extremely strong, it is impossible to beat a great guy who is not yet 20 years old. opponent.

Originally, the physical fitness of the two of you has to fight, if one party risked his life to fight you to the death, as long as the other side evades a little bit, it may be defeated by the opponent.

So Wallace didn't dare to relax, so he could only forcefully carry Chen Feng to the outside, but this old guy certainly didn't know the old Chinese saying that punches are afraid of the young.

And when he confronted Chen Feng, most of them were in a defensive stance, the offensive side took the initiative, and the referee couldn't always call Chen Feng offensive fouls.

If these two tough guys meet, it's normal to have fierce physical contact, which is very detrimental to the defensive side, not to mention that Wallace has already committed two fouls in the second quarter.

When the referee gestured at Wallace for a thug foul for the fourth time, not only the tough Wallace was yelling at the referee to express his dissatisfaction, but Skiles over there was also complaining loudly.

"Damn it! That's not a foul!", but Skiles' complaint didn't get any response, and Wallace's roar also got the referee's warning.

If you express dissatisfaction like this again, the referee doesn't mind counting a technical foul on "Big Ben". Although this is the Bulls' home court, Wallace's toughness will also have negative effects in the confrontation at the basket.

Non-stop physical contact, the entire third quarter except for a timeout, for the entire 9 minutes, Chen Feng didn't go down to rest at all, he just played with Wallace on his shoulders.

Although the wild boy was panting all the time, after all, this kind of physical contact was too exhausting. Two equally strong beasts collided under the basket for almost 10 minutes just relying on their muscles.

But even so, Chen Feng managed to snatch 5 rebounds and 6 points from Wallace. By the way, he made the opponent pay the price of two fouls, which made Skiles scratch his head and beat Wallace. replace it.

When Wallace was replaced, the Bulls were still six points behind the Celtics, and the 4-point advantage after the start of the third quarter has been maintained leisurely, which made Skiles Distraught on the sidelines.

Chen Feng made two free throws and made one, but the advantage of seven points gave them enough confidence to deal with their opponents, not to mention that the Bulls came up to replace Wallace with Luol Deng.

This guy who has been on the bench for a long time, not only his hands are cold, but his heart is even colder, making him fight Jefferson and Feng Chen to death?Uh, just thinking about it makes me want to die.

When Skiles replaced Wallace again when he was behind by 50 points, there were more than [-] seconds left in the third quarter, and the tragic Luol Deng was equivalent to giving the Celtics three points for nothing. .

His two fouls allowed Jefferson to make three of four free throws steadily. When the point difference became double digits, the entire United Center Arena was also fried.

I am the home court, and there is a stronger lineup than the opponent, so why the fuck should I be like this?Is this still the third child in the East?Your uncle!Can you play the game more seriously!

Hearing the dissatisfied boos from the fans, Skiles almost hit his head on the floor, "This is a fucking war of attrition! We were exhausted by the Bostonians!"

War of attrition, if someone tells Skiles before the game that your team will be dragged to death by the Celtics, no one will believe this, and they will even laugh at the person who said this.

But now, this is the truth, the brutal truth...
