Chapter 843 When to Take Over the Game
Rondo came over with the ball and gave it to Wade in the waist.

Wade faced DeRozan's defense with his back, sat in with the ball, and suddenly turned around and made a jumper-the ball crashed into the net!

The Bulls scored first!
"DeMar's strength and back defense really need to be strengthened! Dwyane is much shorter than DeMar in terms of height!" Greg Sager said.

"Dwyane has a lot of experience. DeMar didn't fully expect him to shoot just now. Most players defending him prioritize his breakthroughs. Of course, DeMar's confrontation and strength really don't have any advantages. "Mark Jackson also said.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball across the half court unhurriedly, and he didn't get impatient or flustered because his opponent scored first.In the past four seasons, he and his Raptors have encountered all kinds of complicated situations, and he has become flattered and not worried about a little imperfection.

Rondo's defense is very good. He is less than 190cm tall, but his wingspan is outstanding, especially those big hands, which are very useful on the defensive end and are a great threat to the opposing No. 1 position.

Jeremy Lin hung a screen at the top of the arc, took the ball to his right hand, and played Ibaka extraordinarily.

Facing Robin Lopez, who didn't make a jump, Ibaka directly shot a 3-pointer-the ball missed!

But Ying Xiong grabbed the offensive rebound!He carried Jimmy Butler in the penalty area, hit the board with his left hand-hit!
The two sides draw!

"Good shot! This offensive rebound is beautiful!" Greg Sager praised.

"Serge and Patrick are both outside the 3-point line, and Chicago's inside line dare not not expand, so the protection of the backcourt rebounds will not be in place!" Mark Jackson explained.

For the Bulls, Jimmy Butler made an air cut and passed the ball to Robin Lopez near the penalty area, who hooked - no!
Ibaka grabbed the backcourt rebound and handed it to Ying Xiong to advance.

Ying Xiong pushed forward with the ball, and the Bulls returned to the defense very quickly. Whoever interfered with the ball holder and who quickly returned to the defense were very organized.

Ying Xiong didn't find a good opportunity to attack, so he gave Jeremy Lin a half-court position.

"Chicago's defense is really fast! They don't want to let the other side go up!" Greg Sager said.

"Chicago has no choice. Ever since Sergey started, Toronto's fast break has been so terrifying. They can do all five players to play fast break. If the opponent speeds up, the rhythm of the game will not be affected at all. They took control," Mark Jackson said.

Jeremy Lin looked for someone at the top of the arc and assigned it to Ying Xiong who came out without the ball.

Ying Xiong used the pick-and-roll on the left wing and turned to go in, splitting up DeRozan who was open in the bottom corner.

DeRozan was not very confident in his 3-pointer. He dribbled a step, attracted the defense, and then scored Jeremy Lin at the top of the arc.

Jeremy Lin made a 3-point shot-no!
Robin Lopez received the rebound and handed it to Wade to advance.

"It seems that the current game is completely developing in the direction that Chicago expects!" Greg Sager said.

"Well, Toronto has a lot of good opportunities on the outside, but it doesn't feel good. This is really the result Chicago wants to see. Chicago is also very difficult. Toronto's outside and breakthroughs, they can't limit them all, they have to put one end. Okay Now the opponent can't shoot outside, so they don't have to worry about the point difference being opened." Mark Jackson said.

The first half of the game was played, and the combined scores of both sides did not exceed 20.The Raptors fans at the scene felt that this was the home team's strongest start of the season.

Ying Xiong didn't take a lot of shots, and his outside touch was not good, and it seemed that he didn't have the intention of holding the ball very urgently.

The fans naturally hope that the leading star can stand up quickly and end the suspense of the game.But the reality is that Ying Xiong didn't intend to exert his strength in advance.

"Mark, why don't you think you should go early and set the tone for the game?" Greg Sager asked.

"You should have your own plans, and his state is not at its best. He is adjusting now, and he will definitely work hard. There is no doubt about it. He has never disappointed those who support him." Mark Jackson said.

"Mark, are you one of his supporters?" Greg Sager said slyly.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm a commentator! I hope this round of the series will be more exciting, I should appreciate it, and I also appreciate Dwyane!" Mark Jackson explained.

Ying Xiong really has no plan to forcefully take over the game. This is only the first quarter.In his opinion, it may not be a bad thing to let the team experience the anxious situation in the first game of the first round of the playoffs.

Of course, if the team is really behind, Ying Xiong will definitely take over the game. He has the ability and confidence.

At the end of the first quarter, the Raptors only led the Bulls by 22 point at 21:1.

"In the regular season, that's just half a quarter for Toronto, hahaha..." Greg Sager laughed.

"Yes, but this is the playoffs. Whether it is the level of confrontation or the number of rounds, there is a big difference from the regular season." Mark Jackson said.

"Ying still didn't work hard! Hahaha..." Greg Sager said with a smile.

"Toronto is still ahead and the game is only in the first quarter. I think this is the reason why he didn't fully exert his strength!" Mark Jackson said.

Ying Xiong returned to the court at 2 minutes and 8 seconds into the second quarter.Coach Casey did not extend his playing time because the team did not have a score advantage.The two have worked together for so many years, and there is no need to say much about the tacit understanding between them.

At this time, the Raptors tied with the Bulls at 26:26.

The game continues.

Rondo came over with the ball, used the pick-and-roll in the high post, walked in with the ball, and split the air-cut Jimmy Butler.

Jimmy Butler faced Ibaka's defense and gave the ball to Robin Lopez who followed up.

Robin Lopez held high and hit high, and shot with a hook——Ying Xiong's big hat is presented!

Jimmy Butler got the ball and continued to shoot-Ibaka's big hat!

Robin Lopez continued to get the ball and shot again-Ying Xiong's big cap was presented!

The ball went far, and neither Jimmy Butler nor Robin Lopez could get the ball.

Jeremy Lin got the ball cleverly and played a transition with the ball, but was destroyed by Rondo's tactical foul!
"My God, Mark, 3 blocks in a row! Is Toronto going to stun Chicago?" Greg Sager said in surprise.

"Toronto's lineup does not have a big man over 210cm tall, but both Serge and Ying are masters in assisting defense and blocking shots!" Mark Jackson explained.
