Chapter 165 The Nightmare Schedule Ends
On March 3, the Hornets challenged the Bulls away. At this time, the Bulls were No. 7 in the Eastern Conference. Thibodeau's iron-blooded defensive system can limit opponents to 91.3 points, ranking among the top three in the league.
At the beginning of the game, the Bulls showed super aggressiveness. Rose passed Jeremy Lin in one step and went to the inside, facing Whiteside's defense and scored 2+1.
After that, Bull Boozer missed a throw, Jeremy Lin and Whiteside went through the pick-and-roll, scoring 4 points in a row, and the Hornets led by 10 points!
Bulls pause!

, After returning, Rose scored 2+1 again, Noah scored two points, the Bulls narrowed the point difference, Boozer and Noah teamed up to score again at the end of the quarter, and after the first quarter, the Hornets only led by 2 points.

In the second quarter, the Hornets and the Bulls played very stalemate. Rose's three-pointer helped the Bulls overtake the score, but the Hornets ended the first half with a 3-point lead by David West and Jeremy Lin's four free throws.

At the beginning of the second half, Rose scored two points, Boozer scored four points in a row, Luol Deng made another three-pointer, and the Bulls took a 4-9 lead.

In the final quarter, Gordon and Paul George succeeded in layups. The Hornets overtook the score and came back from a timeout. Paul George made another jumper. Bradley also had a three-pointer. The Hornets led by 6 points, but Luol Deng made a three-pointer. Rose scored 2+1.

Presti was not upset about this game. It was indeed a lack of strength. At this time, Rose’s tearing ability was too strong, and the Hornets’ back line could not be defended. The Hornets’ superior bench lineup was basically useless in front of the Bulls.Use the main force to die.

Another advantage of the Hornets, rebounding, is also at a disadvantage in front of the Bulls' Boozer and Noah's twin towers.

In short, the defeat is not wronged.

On March 3th, the Hornets played away at the Mavericks. The game ended with Gordon's three consecutive three-pointers to kill the game. With 9 minutes left in the game, Presti knew that it would be difficult to win in a normal state, so he had no choice but to use the system!

Nowitzki is really a bug, no matter how he shoots, and Presti dare not double-team, because Jason Terry, Stojakovic, and Kidd on the outside are already ready to catch the ball!

Card position battle, must win, can only cheat.

On March 3th, they challenged the Lakers in an away game. Kobe, his Lakers players, and even the fans have long been looking forward to Presti's return.Although Presti took the rankings very seriously and targeted the Lakers' weaknesses, he still lost in the end.

Without Paul, the Hornets can be said to be at a disadvantage in all positions. Paul George, who had performed bravely in the previous few games, was stalked by Artest in this game, and he directly scored 13 of 3.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Hornets 107:94. Needless to say, at the end of the game, the center of Sputnik was boiling. When Presti left, there were boos.

So, in an interview, Presti said: "Although the Hornets lost today, I want to say that the Hornets will go further in the playoffs!"

When the reporters heard this, they snapped wildly and asked why, but Presti only said, "We'll find out when the regular season ends."

Because the Presti Lakers are currently ranked third, while the Mavericks are sixth,
In the previous playoffs, the Lakers were blown away by the Mavericks!

In this case, Presti will definitely get the Mavericks stuck in sixth!

On March 3, the Hornets finally returned to the home court and will face the Spurs. When Presti struggled with how to win the Spurs, Popovich announced that Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker had a tight buttock rest.

Presti really wanted to hug the old man Bobo and kiss him. Without these three people, the Spurs could be said to be vulnerable to the Hornets. The Hornets had already led the Spurs by 22 points in the third quarter, and the Hornets eventually defeated the Spurs 106:92.

The Hornets played against the Thunder at home on March 3. After this game, the rest of March will be lottery teams or fringe playoff teams. Therefore, Presti encouraged the players in the locker room: Be sure to go all out. After the past, there will be a smooth road ahead.

On the court, Curry, Westbrook, Harden, and the players ran up to Presti and said cheaply: "Coach, shall we put some water for you?"

"Go, go, go." Presti waved his hand, and continued: "I don't even bother to talk about your current style of play. I want an All-Star in my team, and I will beat you up."

"Haha, don't you?" Curry smiled, and at the same time, he was thinking, how much he wishes Presti could continue to coach them. Although they are now No. [-] in the Western Conference, they are playing very uncomfortable, especially him, who can't play to his advantage at all.

The Thunder became a heads-up team. They singled out one, Westbrook played one, Durant played one, and when he was on the bench, Harden took the ball again.

Westbrook asked: "Coach my contract..."

Presti slapped his head. By the way, when this summer is over, the contract can be re-signed. As an agent, he must maximize the interests of the players.
Presti patted Westbrook's arm and said, "I remember, don't worry!"

"The relationship between Presti and the former players is really good," David Wesley envied.

Barkley smiled contemptuously: "Don't pay the money, do you know that Presti is their agent, I have never seen a team's owner be the agent of another team's player! I don't understand why the league doesn't stop it!"

"Haha, Curry, Harden is willing to do this, so trust Presti." David Wesley laughed, then turned to look at Barkley: "You are envious again."

Barkley turned his head away, indicating that the two guys didn't know each other.

The game will start soon!

From the beginning of the game, don't be one-sided!Although Presti thought about it before, he didn't expect it to be so thorough. Talented people can really do whatever they want!

The Thunder's offense is very simple, Curry picks and rolls, Westbrook kills the inside, and Durant singles out a jumper!

But the Hornets just can't prevent it!

Conversely, when the Hornets attacked, they were very uncomfortable being defended by the Thunder!

The Thunder also don't have any system on the defensive end, they just rely on their strong physical talent to defend one against one!

It was a surprise that the Hornets scored less than 95 points!
Ibaka is simply a nightmare for breakthrough guards like Jeremy Lin and Gordon!
In the end, the Hornets lost to the Thunder at home!The Western Conference ranking dropped to sixth in the Western Conference.

Although the Thunder dropped to sixth in the Western Conference, Presti didn't worry too much, because the nightmare schedule has passed, and Presti is sure to win the remaining opponents and regain the initiative.
