Chapter 522 Halftime break, the Bulls' countermeasures!

"You don't have to worry too much. Although the intensity shown by the Heat in the past few minutes is indeed surprising, this kind of high-position pressing may not be useful to us."

Seeing everyone's serious expressions, Yao Ming spoke out to ease the atmosphere.

"It is true. The Bulls' outside firepower is seriously insufficient, so the Heat dared to double-team Rose so recklessly."

"If the opponent is us, would the Heat still dare to let Janeway go forward and press like this?"

Ben Wallace asked.

"With our lineup configuration, even if the Heat use a high press, it will only be in certain periods of time."

"Stephen can pass the ball as soon as halftime, and don't give them a chance to double-team the top of the arc."

"If the ball was in the hands of T-Mac, with his size and vision, it would never be as difficult as Rose."

Tony Allen shook his head and offered a solution.

"But it is this kind of sudden pincer attack that is the most effective."

"Stephen may not face a black 3 minutes like Rose, but in such a sudden attack, there may be mistakes."

Lowry reminded.

After all, everyone turned their attention to Curry.

"em... I will do targeted training these days, how to get out the ball in time before double-teaming and so on."

"There are still two quarters in the second half. The Bulls will definitely not give up. I can also see how Rose responds next."

Curry thought for a moment, then replied.

"I don't think you need to be too nervous. If you really meet the Heat in the finals, the outside players will always have a string in their heads-'the opponent may pinch at any time, I have to be prepared', and the possibility of making mistakes will be greatly reduced. .”

Yao Ming remains optimistic.

While the Rockets will be discussing, the Bulls players are also thinking about countermeasures in the locker room.

After a round of brainstorming, they also got some plans.

For example, Rose reduced the frequency of pick-and-rolls and used one-on-one singles to tear apart the Heat's defense.

In this way, it is not easy for James to step forward and attack.

After all, Boozer is an insider with good shooting ability.

If you just let him go, he will punish the opponent with a steady shot.

Of course, whether this plan will work or not depends on Rose's success rate in singles against Wade.

If he can't single-point blast Wade's defense, the Bulls' offense will be greatly reduced.

The second plan, similar to the idea that the Rockets players thought of, is to let Rose release the ball.

Give Luol Deng the work of organizing the ball, or let Noah mention the free throw line as the axis.

Rose, on the other hand, looks for easier offensive opportunities by running without the ball.

This plan seems okay at first glance, but the Bulls have rarely adopted such an offensive method throughout the season.

Now it is suddenly used in the Eastern Conference finals, and the effect is unknown.

What's more, the Bulls are now behind by a big score. If they can't quickly narrow the gap in the second half, this game will be dangerous.

Coach Thibodeau gave a point-chasing plan-reducing the point difference to single digits before the end of the third quarter, and reducing the point difference to 5-5 points in the first 6 minutes of the fourth quarter.

Regarding the coach's request, although the Bulls generals had no idea, they still complied.

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

Soon, the timeout ends and the game continues.

The Bulls serve from the baseline.

Rose holds the ball across half court and dribbles to the top of the arc.

Wade's toes were on the three-point line, his center of gravity sank, and he assumed a standard defensive posture.

On the inside, James also paid attention to the movements of Noah and Boozer.

If either of the two stepped forward to cover, Lao Zhan would follow and defend.

But the strange thing is that neither Noah nor Boozer intends to leave this time.

Noah was in the low post and Howard was trying to get in, and Boozer fell to a position near the right corner.

Although Boozer does not have the ability to shoot three-pointers, he has a high percentage of long two-pointers.

James did not dare to relax, and kept a step or so away from Boozer at all times.

The camera turns and returns to the top position of the arc.

Rose saw Wade put a step away, and other teammates didn't have a good chance to run.

Ever since, he directly chose to shoot at a position one step outside the three-point line.

Such an offensive choice obviously exceeded Wade's expectations.

When he reacted, Rose had already collected the ball and jumped up, making a shooting action.

The basketball left his fingertips and flew towards the hoop with a high-speed spin.

The ball draws a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

Wade's take-off interference did not have any impact on Rose.

57:36, the Bulls recovered a three-pointer!

After the ball was scored, Rose, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help but clenched his fists to cheer himself up.

Wade didn't respond.

In his opinion, there is no problem with his defense on this ball.

Just like at the beginning of the first quarter, although Rose can score three points, his output is not high and he lacks stability.

These three points can be given!

But 20 seconds later, Wade thinks otherwise.

After James missed a mid-range shot, Rose took the ball to the Heat's half again.

It's just that the Heat's retreat speed is very fast.

When Rose dribbles through the half court, everyone but Howard returns to the defensive position.

Wade, on the other hand, maintained the same defensive position as in the previous round - with his toes on the three-point line, leaving room for Rose to take a step.

Rose didn't hesitate, pulled the green onions in the dry land, and directly shot a three-pointer...

This time, Wade's reaction was obviously much faster, taking off and blocking the shot immediately.

With excellent explosive power and wingspan, although Wade did not directly block the shot, but his hand completely blocked Rose's line of sight.

In order to avoid being taken off, Rose deliberately increased the arc.

At this moment, the basketball crossed a super high arc and flew towards the basket.

"Off!"

Wade looked at the trajectory of the ball and immediately shouted inside, intending to remind Howard to grab the rebound.

The trajectory of this ball is indeed a bit wrong, but...

The ball didn't go straight to the hoop, it hit the backboard and bounced into the net.

57: 39!

After two three-pointers, the point difference was narrowed by the Bulls to 18 points!

This ball is an obvious lucky ball.

But on the basketball court, luck has always been part of strength.

After Rose made the three-pointer, Wade immediately raised his right hand, indicating that the ball was his problem.

After the offensive and defensive transition, Wade took the initiative to ask for the ball.

As one of the main players of the team, the opposing player scored two consecutive goals on his head, and Wade must respond at this time.

And the fans at the scene rekindled their enthusiasm for watching the game after Rose scored two three-pointers in a row.

"defense!!!"

"defense!!!"

"defense!!!"

......

The cheers for the team sounded again.

And Wade launched an attack amidst the noise all over the sky!
