Chapter 844 The Role of Superstars

"Playing Chicago, it seems that the frequency of helping to defend the inside line is much higher!" Greg Sager sighed.

"Yes, because Chicago's outside threat is not high enough! Except for Nikola and Jimmy, the rest of the starting three can shoot. Even Nikola and Jimmy, the 3-point shot is not stable. In this era, there are no 3-pointers If the ball is thrown, the opponent will shrink wantonly, whether it is a sudden score or an air cut, it is very difficult to hit." Mark Jackson explained.

The game continues.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball across half court and organized an offense at the top of the arc.

Ying Xiong's left-wing waist position is back, and Jimmy Butler is fighting for the position with him.

"It seems that we should plan to attack by ourselves!" Greg Sager said with a smile.

"Is he finally showing his fangs?" Mark Jackson laughed.

There is still some gap between Jimmy Butler and Ying Xiong in terms of physical confrontation and strength, and he has not been able to grab the position.

Jeremy Lin passed the ball to Ying Xiong smoothly.

Ying Xiong held the ball with his back, leaned on his back, and looked around to see if other opponents came to attack.

"Greg, how sure do you think Jimmy's defensive back is?" This time it was Mark Jackson's turn to ask the question.

"It's hard to say, Jimmy is a member of the best defensive team, and his confrontational strength is not weak, but compared with his opponent, his wingspan is still too far behind. If he should shoot a jumper, it is difficult for him to limit it." Greg Sager Er said so.

While the two were talking, Ying Xiong turned forward and then turned back and forth, then walked up the line with the ball, pulled it up—jump shot—and entered the frame!
The whole set of actions is done in one go and is very coherent, which makes the audience feel very comfortable watching.

But for the Bulls, the beauty of this action is not so beautiful in their eyes.

"As you said, Jimmy really can't give a strong interference when responding to jump shots." Mark Jackson said.

At 28:26, the Raptors led by 2 points!The fans of the home team at the scene cheered Yingxiong's back hit. They knew that their Hero would take over the game sooner or later, and they never doubted this.

For the Bulls, Jimmy Butler made a pass error!

Ying Xiong steals the ball and counterattacks, and makes a series of thrusts at the top of the arc, PJ Tucker who splits the bottom corner!
Tucker shot a 3-pointer-but no!
But it doesn't matter, Ying Xiong has offensive rebounds!
Ying Xiong grabbed an offensive rebound and didn't attack immediately. Facing Jimmy Butler's defense, he held the ball in his left hand, turned his crotch and walked to the right, trying to break through to the baseline.

Jimmy Butler has very rich defensive experience and stuck the bottom line early.

Ying Xiong dribbled the ball behind his back to his left hand, made a fake bow to Buddha, and then changed direction to his right hand under his crotch. With the help of the opponent's momentary increase in the center of gravity, he instantly lowered the center of gravity and broke through from the bottom line.

Robin Lopez came to help defend, but Yingxiong made a fake fax shot, fooled the opponent, and hit a layup-score!
"Beautiful, one attack deceived two people, it's amazing!" Greg Sager didn't spare his praise at all.

"Greg, you used to say that I was too partial to Ying, but now it seems that you praise him more than me!" Mark Jackson said with a smile in his eyes.

"Mark, don't say that, it's normal to praise if you play well!" Greg Sager said.

For the Bulls, Wade made an emergency stop for a jumper——Ibaka received the rebound!

The Raptors attacked, Ying Xiong was at a 45-degree position on the left wing, turned around and made a fallback jumper-continue!

Ying Xiong scored 6 points in a row and stopped the game!

The scene was filled with jubilation, and the game has been very anxious and depressing.The two sides have been hammering iron, and finally Ying Xiong hit consecutive hits, which is like a clear stream, moistening the dry land.

Pause back, the game continues.

On the Bulls side, Wade's sudden inside caused a foul by Patterson.

Wade stood on the free throw line and made two free throws, which solved the urgent need for the team.

Ying Xiong missed a fallback jumper!

Wade accepted the rebound, pushed forward by himself, and made a second pass to Mirotic for a 3-pointer!
The difference of 6 points instantly became 1 point!
This timeout comes from the Raptors!The interval between the two timeouts was very short, which made the fans feel inexplicably embarrassed.

"Dwyane is really amazing, he abruptly brought the situation back!" Greg Sager laughed.

"No matter how old Dwyane is, he is still a superstar. In the playoffs, his role was reflected." Mark Jackson said seriously.

"Yeah, the game is starting to get anxious again!" Greg Sager laughed.

After the timeout, DeRozan came on to replace Tucker, and Lowry came on to replace Jeremy Lin.

Lowry dribbled the ball across half court and organized the offense at the top of the arc.

Ibaka came up to cover and Lowry broke through with the ball.

DeRozan on the left came over to respond, and Lowry passed the ball.

DeRozan received the ball to face Wade, changed direction and went to the left hand, but couldn't get rid of the opponent, turned over and made a jump shot-was blocked by the opponent!

Rondo got the ball and pushed back, but the Raptors returned to the defense very quickly, and he didn't find a suitable opportunity to play the ball.

The two sides sank down to play positions, and the ball went to Wade.

Wade breaks through the screen, drives to the hoop, and gives Robin Lopez a hook -- hit!
The Bulls overtook it!

The Raptors fans at the scene couldn't imagine that the team had a tendency to open the score just now, and it fell behind in a blink of an eye.Moreover, this lag occurred after the team suspended.This is really not easy to accept.

"Mark, this game is getting more and more exciting!" Greg Sager said.

"Yeah, I didn't expect Chicago to be so tenacious. Dwyane is really amazing!" Mark Jackson also said.

The Raptors attack.Lowry received DeRozan's baseline serve and passed the ball to Yingxiong.

Ying Xiong slowly dribbled the ball across the half court.The fans of the home team at the scene pinned their hopes on him. As long as he holds the ball, the fans feel very at ease and at ease.DeRozan and Lowry, who performed well in the regular season, always have a match in the playoffs. The state fluctuates so much, which makes people feel somewhat disappointed.Fortunately, the team still has the best players in the league, which is the team's biggest advantage.

Ying Xiong held the ball to the top of the arc and faced Jimmy Butler's defense.

Ibaka tried to come up to pick and roll, Ying Xiong shook his head slightly.The teammates who were familiar with him consciously pulled away.Obviously, the head star is coming by himself!

Jimmy Butler lowered his center of gravity and clapped his hands, not knowing whether he was cheering himself up or trying to disrupt Yingxiong's offensive rhythm.

Jimmy Butler's position is actually a bit outside. He knows how terrifying the opponent's jumper is, and he also knows that he cannot interfere with the opponent.He has already prepared for the worst - being broken by his opponent.But he is not afraid of such a bad situation, because Robin, a big center, sits on the inside and can protect the basket very well.
