Superstar Tyreke

Chapter 175 The Rose Withered
两队以57比53结束了上半场的较量，公牛队领先国王队4分，罗斯半场拿下18分2板6助，泰瑞克半场砍下17分3板3助，场面上完全是双星闪耀。

In the second half, the two teams gradually became familiar with each other's style of play. The scoring efficiency of both teams declined, and the Kings also changed their defensive strategies. Because Jimmy's single defense against Rose was not effective, Coach Westphal During the break, the personnel arrangement was re-made, Tyreke defended Ross, Jimmy defended Deng, and Garcia defended Hamilton.

Hamilton is a pitcher who constantly moves without the ball to find opportunities to catch the ball. As long as he has good physical strength and concentration, he can keep up with Hamilton. Since Rose is in full swing today, and Jimmy, who has the best outside single-defense ability, can't limit him. It's better to let Jimmy stare at the No. [-] scoring point of the Bulls. It is naturally best for Tyreke to affect Rose.

Rose was holding the ball in the frontcourt. Seeing that Tyreke was facing him, he couldn't help but startled, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"Terek, it was you who guarded me instead. You were too scared to face me in the first half. Since you guarded me, I will smash you into a sieve in full view!"

Tyreke bent down, clapped his hands between his hips, and motioned for Ross to come over.

"Hey, Stacy, look, Derek and Tyreke Evans are facing each other for the first time!"

"As you said, the core point guards of the two teams have not faced each other today. The defensive strategy of the two teams in the first half is to defend the opponent's arrow with the best outside defensive ability. At the beginning of the second half, the Kings defended. Derek's Jimmy Butler was pushed to defend Lore in the third position throughout the first half, and Tyreke Evans defended Derek. We all know that Tyreke Evans and Derek's Defensive ability is not bad, but due to the staying power to attack and the presence of defensive champions around them, neither of them can go all out on the defensive end. It seems that the Kings think that defending Derek alone is meaningless, rather than wasting it in vain Jimmy Butler’s defense, it’s better to let him stare at Lore, whose personal offensive ability is not so outstanding.”

The sideline commentator Stacy King said very well. The coaching staff of the Kings really think so, but Tyreke doesn't think so. Since he is facing the regular season MVP of last season, he should suffer a little bit no matter what. !

Ross looked at Tyreek's focused guarding expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sneer. He didn't think Tyreke's defense could pose any threat to him. He was teasing casually, Tyreke?Just focus on attacking.
As a young star with the same limelight as himself, Ross naturally wants to single out and knock him down when facing Tyreke!Rose signaled his teammates to pull away, he wants to play singles!
Under the command of Rose, his teammates created ample space for him to play singles. Rose leaned down and prepared to break through at a high speed.Tyreke knows that it is very difficult for him to defend against Rose's sudden start. Although he has an advantage in height and wingspan, Rose's instant explosive power is enough to open the distance between him and himself. Tyreke must make a prediction in advance!

Tyreke observes Rose's footsteps, Jimmy Butler defends Rose more by watching the video before the game to understand Rose's breakthrough habits and combine his own defensive skills, while Tyreke observes from the perspective of a breakthrough Rose is also a good breakthrough player himself. Although the two play differently, Tyreke believes that there must be commonalities between him and Rose.

Ross made a breakthrough from the right side of Tyreke. Ross's first step was really hard to guard against. If Tyreke didn't stand in advance, he thought he would never be able to keep up with Ross's speed. His footsteps would not lie, Tyreke Get stuck in Rose's position ahead of time!
Tyreke is directly attached to Rose, making Ross's speed completely impossible. Once slowed down, Tyreke's height and wingspan will have a huge advantage, allowing Tyreke to be able to beat Tyreke no matter what follow-up action the opponent makes. All grams can influence opponents with their long arms.

Ross didn't expect Tyreke to be able to prevent his first breakthrough. Although it was a bit unexpected, but as the youngest MVP in history, Ross naturally had a plan. The breakthrough line was stuck, and Ross did not choose to try the next breakthrough. Without any pause at all, Rose directly pulled the ball back, then clicked a step, and directly made a step-back jumper!

The action was done in one go, without giving Tyreke any time to think, decisive and confident!It feels like I can throw the ball in no matter what method I use!
Without any doubt, hit two points steadily!
"Beautiful goal! Derek gained the upper hand in the direct confrontation with Tyreke Evans!" Neil Fink said excitedly.

"However, Tyreke Evans did a good job in defending Derek in the first step. Generally speaking, in this kind of singles situation, Derek basically goes straight to the inside with one step."

Ross gave Tyreke a "Are you okay?" look, but then Tyreke played a fast break, and ended the fight with a beautiful pull bar, and the confrontation between the two continued!

But soon bad luck befalls the Bulls...

Korver missed a three-pointer from the bottom corner. Rose rushed to grab an offensive rebound. After being successfully grabbed by Rose, he unexpectedly fell to the floor without any interference after landing!

All the fans in the audience exclaimed, their hearts were in their throats at this moment...

After falling to the ground, Rose clutched his ankle and struggled on the ground in pain. The replay footage showed that the moment Rose landed, the sole of his left foot contacted the floor at an obvious angle. The outer sole of the foot touched the ground first, obviously hurting his ankle!
Fink and King in the commentary booth also covered their faces and shook their heads. Since winning the regular season MVP last season, Rose, who is jealous of talents this season, has continued to suffer from injuries, such as toe sprains, back spasms, groin sprains, and ankle injuries. Let Rose miss nearly half of the games this season. Although Rose can quickly recover every time he comes back, the vulnerability that Rose has shown this season makes everyone who supports him worry.

After the team doctor's examination, it was confirmed that Rose could not persist in the game. With the support of his teammates, Rose limped off the court. His personal data for this game was also fixed at 25 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists...

On the other side, Tyreke stood on the field with his hips akimbo, watching Rose leave the field, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although Rose was a little arrogant in his own performance, Tyreke still recognized Rose's strength. He knew that this was not the case. Rose's last injury, and the next more terrifying and devastating injury are still waiting for Rose. Reminiscent of his plantar fasciitis last season, injuries are really the enemy of professional athletes...
