Legendary basketball manager

There are two games in total today.

The first to start is the game between the Bulls and the Eagles.

In the first game two days ago, the Bulls easily won 102:89.

Fighting again in this campaign, the Bulls players naturally hope to make another victory in the United Center arena!

At the same time, the Rockets in Houston gathered together to watch the game together.

"Today we mainly watch the second game between the Heat and the Celtics. But to be on the safe side, we also need to know about the Bulls and the Eagles."

Mark Jackson said while turning on the TV.

The Heat are undoubtedly the biggest favorites for the Eastern Conference Championship, but the Bulls should not be underestimated, and they still need to know in advance.

"Ross' style of play is similar to Westbrook on some levels! We can also take a look at what strategy the Eagles use to defend Rose today. There may be something worth learning from."

Ben Wallace added.

The rocket generals nodded upon hearing this.

As one of the few veterans in the team with championship experience, everyone is very convinced by Daben's words.

"You said... Will Rose become Curry's biggest competitor on the mvp road in the next few years?"

Lowry asked with a smile.

Curry was taken aback when he heard the words, not knowing why the topic suddenly fell on him.

He quickly waved his hand, indicating that he was still far away.

But the Rockets generals only felt that Curry was being humble.

After all, after more than half a season of close observation, everyone was impressed by his skills.

Even Tracy McGrady once said in private that there is a high probability that Curry's achievements will surpass him in the future!

And this was said after t-mac got the mvp.

In other words, McGrady feels that Curry's potential is not just as simple as winning an mvp.

And Rose is the second in this year's MVP list, and his strength is beyond doubt!

Coupled with the fact that they are similar in age to Curry, it is not difficult to understand when they are compared together.

"Both of you were born in 88, and Rose is only half a year younger than you. You may really compete for many years in the future!"

Yao Ming said while checking the information on his mobile phone.

When Griffin and George on the side heard this, a trace of war flashed in their eyes at the same time.

Both are talented and ambitious players.

Maybe Curry is the better one right now, but that doesn't mean they're left behind.

Griffin and George have even agreed to train together at the end of the season, determined to spend a fulfilling and rewarding offseason!

............

"Okay, let's stop chatting, the game will start immediately; the famous ESPN commentator-a-Smith."

"I just got the starters on both sides, and I'll read it to you."

"The Bulls are: Rose, Bogans, Luol Deng, Boozer, and Noah."

"The Hawks, Jeff Teague, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Al Horford and Pachulia."

Mark Jackson said.

"If you just look at the lineup on paper, the Eagles seem to be more balanced."

"But Rose, no one in their team should be able to limit him."

"In the final analysis, the playoffs are still a stage for stars. Rose alone is enough to crush the Eagles to death!"

Tony Allen analyzed.

"It depends on whether iso.joe (single player Joe) can stand up and explode with Ross."

Griffin spoke.

"The strongest part of the Bulls team is actually the defense."

"Under Thibodeau, the Bulls' overall defense is one of the best in the league."

"If the Eagles want to break the game, someone must stand up and defeat the Bulls' defense point by point! And Joe Johnson is probably the only one in their team who has this ability."

Maddie talked eloquently.

Everyone nodded after listening.

Just as he was talking, as the referee threw the ball high, the game began!

Pachulia and Noah take off at the same time.

Noah is young and strong, and his jumping ability is even better.

He jumped high, waved his hand, and slapped the ball back to his own half.

Bulls go first!

Rose advanced with the ball to a 45-degree angle to the left.

In the first round, he didn't rush to attack, but passed the ball to Boozer inside.

Carlos Boozer - former All-Star player, averaged close to 20+10 per game!

Back then, the Jazz insider formed by Okur left an indelible memory for many Rockets fans.

The way he set up a crooked machine gun and shot with that weird posture is the "childhood shadow" of many Rockets fans!

A simple summary is... Boozer's shooting is ugly or ugly, and there are shots!

In the offseason last year, he transferred from the Jazz to the Bulls.

With a super giant teammate like Rose, Boozer's role on the offensive end has decreased this season, but his efficiency has improved!

After receiving the ball this time, facing Horford's defense, Boozer assumed a three-threat posture, and then took two short and powerful tentative steps in a row.

Horford was unimpressed.

Seeing this, Boozer pulled up decisively on the spot, and made a shot from the mid-range shot...

"Shu~"

Basketball hollow into the net.

2: 0.

The Bulls are the first to win!

In an offensive and defensive transition, Teague passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize.

Joe Johnson took out the cover and received the ball smoothly.

The "British Jordan" who defended him - Luol Deng followed closely and blocked in front of the Eagle King in time.

Seeing that there was no chance to make a phone call, Joe Johnson signaled his teammates to pull away.

Then he took a stance and dribbled the ball continuously under the crotch against Luol Deng.

Luol Deng moved in small steps, always maintaining a defensive position.

Seeing this, Joe Johnson immediately changed his tactics!

I saw him blasting the ball vigorously with his left hand, causing the ball to bounce high and suspend in mid-air.

Then, he mobilized his whole body to make a huge crossover.

Luol Deng was deceived by this realistic change of direction, and his center of gravity shifted slightly to the right.

But he reacted quickly, kicked his right foot hard, and rushed to Joe Johnson again.

At this time, singles Joe just collected the ball and was about to shoot.

Luol Deng jumped and sealed it on his fingertips.

"duang!"

Joe Johnson was interfered, the shot hit the front of the basket, and bounced out of the basket.

Noah jumped high, received the rebound, and passed the ball to Rose beside him.

The next moment, the rose turned into a flash of red lightning and charged toward the eagle's hinterland.

Ross is so fast!

When he first started, Teague was about three meters in front of him.

But two seconds later, Ross has passed Teague!

Seeing the rose fading away, Teague stopped in despair and watched the former rush to the basket and leap high...

"bang!"

Rose dunked with a pair of heavy hands, and instantly set the United Center on fire.

"mvp!!!"

"mvp!!!"

"mvp!!!"

The fans shouted in unison.

It is worth mentioning that the current game has only started for 1 minute.

After playing for so long, the fans started shouting mvp...

From this small detail, it can be seen how much Bulls fans prefer Rose!

............

In the next round, the Bulls defended successfully again.

Under Noah's interference, Teague's throw went wide.

Boozer grabbed the rebound and handed the ball to Luol Deng.

During the fast break, Jordan of the United Kingdom made an in&out feint on the move and passed the "Eagle King"-Josh Smith.

Luol Deng continued to advance, and when he came to the free throw line, he suddenly threw the ball into the sky...

The next moment, the rose bloomed again!

I saw Rose leaping high, catching the basketball with one hand with his right hand, and then smashing the ball into the basket.

He even hit the backboard with the top of his head from jumping so high!

After landing, Ross touched his flat head in pain.

6:0, the Bulls made a perfect start!

Hawks coach - Larry - Drew see the situation is not good, decisively sacrificed a timeout.

During the timeout, the Rockets generals in Houston also discussed the opening situation.

"The Eagles' defense is not good! There is no one to restrict Rose, so that he plays too comfortably."

Lowry sighed.

"Teague's defense is terrible... Leaving aside the gap in physical fitness, his defensive enthusiasm is not good!"

"You can't let an mvp-level player play so easily and calmly! I don't even think Rose is under any defensive threat!"

"He at least has to defend like Stephen defends Westbrook?"

Tony Allen commented.

"Hey, hey! What you said, it seems that Curry is very poor in defense."

Birdman Anderson, who had never spoken much, spoke at this time.

He admires a humble and powerful young man like Curry very much.

So when Tony Allen talks about Curry's defense, Anderson automatically lends a hand.

"You misunderstood, Chris. Steph defended pretty well, at least with a positive defensive attitude."

"I'm just judging Teague's defense by my own standards, and I mentioned Steph in passing."

Tony Allen explained.

"By your standards, there are only a handful of people in the league who can defend."

Yao Ming said jokingly.

As soon as this remark came out, the conference room suddenly burst into laughter.

This is the role of Dayao in the locker room.

He can often use a humorous way of speaking to adjust the team atmosphere.

"From the current point of view, Derek is better than Russell."

"If Russell is replaced by Derek, the Thunder will not be easy to deal with."

Lowry touched his chin and said.

"But it won't be so in two years."

"Russell's physical fitness is also abnormal, and his upper limit is not necessarily lower than Rose. Of course, the premise here is that Russell can practice shooting."

Griffin spoke eloquently.

"Who knows what the future holds."

"Have you noticed that just after Rose dunked on the flat frame, he didn't grab the frame and landed directly."

"This way of landing, the impact on the knee is too great!"

Roy said worriedly.

As a player who has had two menisci removed, he knows the horror of injuries!

No matter how talented you are, a serious injury is enough to "destroy" your entire career.

"Actually, I noticed that too."

"Derek is young and healthy. But I'm a little concerned about whether his knees will be able to withstand such an impact for a long time."

McGrady is also a person who has suffered serious injuries, so he naturally empathizes with Roy's worries.

"Sometimes, tolerance is also a talent..."

"All we can do is wish him good health."

Yao Ming said.

"Okay, don't think about it so much."

"The game is about to start, let's see if the Eagles can restore the decline."

Mark Jackson said with a smile.

Everyone nodded and turned their attention back to the TV screen.

............

The timeout ends and the game restarts.

As soon as the Eagles came up, they played their best team offense.

Horford mentioned the support at the top of the arc and dealt cards online.

Joe Johnson used Pachulia's screen on the baseline to get rid of Luol Deng's defense.

Horford's pass man to the ball.

Joe Johnson made a decisive catch&shoot after receiving the ball.

After the basketball left his fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

6:3, the Eagles finally broke the deadlock!

Easy to fight again.

Rose and Noah played pick-and-roll tactics in the high post.

With the help of a screen, the Bulls No. 1 smoothly rushed to the free throw line.

After attracting the defense, Rose flicked his wrist and distributed the ball to the outside.

Luol Deng raised the knife and hit a three-pointer.

answerball!

At 9:3, the Bulls continued to lead.

Eagles attack.

Eagle King Josh - Smith broke into the inside, forced up caused Noah's foul.

He walked to the free throw line and made one of two free throws.

9: 4!

Offensive and defensive transition, Rose sent another assist.

This time, it was Boozer who received the wonderful pass.

He rolls immediately after the pick-and-roll with Rose.

The latter sent the ball to Boozer with a touchdown pass while being double-teamed.

Boozer tilted his machine gun and made a steady mid-range shot.

11: 4.

One minute later, Rose made a comeback and continued to play pick-and-roll tactics at the top of the arc.

This time, he pretended to go around the pick-and-roll, but suddenly changed direction and passed between two defenders.

In an instant, the Eagles' seemingly impenetrable defense was torn open by Rose!

Rose went straight in, took off with both feet after a step, and sent another gorgeous dunk!

13: 4.

The Bulls further extended their lead.

In the following games, the Eagles have been chasing points.

But every time they narrow the point difference to about 5 points, Rose will stand up and use his unsolvable breakthrough to help the Bulls stabilize the situation. (Why did he stand up in time every time? Because Rose stayed on the court.)

Until the end of the third quarter, the Bulls still led the Hawks by 80 points at 70:10.

In the last quarter of the game, Bulls coach Thibodeau continued to let Rose, Luol Deng, and Noah make their debut together.

With the presence of three generals, the Bulls' advantage is as solid as Mount Tai.

Until the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter, the Hawks finally gave up resistance and replaced the main players.

Only then did Thibodeau remove the three of Ross.

When they left the field, all three looked exhausted.

Fortunately, the fruits of victory made their faces still full of smiles.

It was a game, and Luol Deng played for 1 minutes without resting for 44 minute.

Rose took a 2-minute break and played a total of 42 minutes.

Noah was slightly better, "only" playing 38 minutes.

In the end, the Bulls defeated the Eagles 105:91 at home and won the second game of the series.

The total score of the two teams has also become 2:0!

............

After watching the game, the Rockets players are full of confidence.

There is no disrespect to the Bulls and Eagles, but the shortcomings of these two teams are too obvious.

In the words of Ben Wallace-"The Eagles don't have super giants. They seem to be strong and strong, but in fact they are defeated in one blow; the Bulls are tough, and Rose has strong personal ability, but the bench is too thin. The consumption of core players is too high."

All in all, whether it is the Bulls or the Eagles, it is difficult to pose a substantial threat to the Rockets in the 7 games with 4 wins.

In other words, it is difficult for these two teams to break through the Heat and become the Rockets' opponents.

"Well, since everyone's attitude is so unified, let's focus on studying the Heat's game."

Seeing that the soldiers did not have the enthusiasm to continue the discussion, Mark Jackson smiled and guided the players to focus on the next game.

Soon, the rematch between the Heat and the Celtics will begin!
