Chapter 431 Peak Rose? Knicks lineup changes!

Chapter 431

Sure enough, the starting lineups of both sides were announced.

The Bulls' starting five.

Rose, Luol Deng, Tabgison, Boozer, Noah.

These five people must have three points and three points, and they must defend and defend.

It can be said to be the lineup composition that every coach dreams of.

As for the Knicks.

Deron, Beverley, Su Ye, Randolph, DeAndre Jordan.

A lineup with stronger perimeter defense was activated to counter the Bulls' more powerful perimeter.

After the fans have been waiting for a long time, the game is finally about to begin.

The referee's whistle sounded.

DeAndre Jordan and Noah started jumping the ball.

In terms of high jump, Jordan undoubtedly crushes most conventional centers.

After the Knicks won the opening ball, they quickly settled into position.

You Delong and Su Ye each stand at a 45 degree angle.

Beverley went straight to the bottom, Jordan was in the paint, and Randolph came out for a pick-and-roll.

This most popular position is the Knicks' most frequently used opening tactic this season.

After Deron made a perfect assist and Randolph scored two points inside, the Knicks also came out on top.

Everyone in the Knicks also returned to their own half while talking and laughing, preparing to defend next.

When it was the Bulls' turn to attack, everyone in the Knicks suddenly changed their expressions.

Generally, each team starts the game very easily.

Players from both sides will try to warm up and then start the onslaught.

But tonight's Bulls clearly don't look like an ordinary team.

After it was their turn to get the ball, the whole team exuded a chilling atmosphere that belongs to a strong team.

Every step this group of people took made people feel a strong sense of oppression.

Judging from the expressions of the five Bulls opposite, this group of people is very serious.

This also allowed everyone in the Knicks to adjust quickly and not dare to relax even a little bit.

Rose controlled the ball and walked through half the court, looking at Beverley who was dying in front of him, his eyes did not stay on the opponent for too long.

After looking at it for a while, Ross, who was still slightly relaxed, suddenly increased his speed.

Beverley reacted and was about to catch up and block the opponent's offensive line.

Turning around, he hit a back wall head on.

Luol Deng, who had a stubble on his face and a dark face, groaned, his body motionless, and his eyes glanced at Beverly coldly.

Beverly couldn't help but cursed.

"Fake!!!"

Luol Deng, who is 2.06 meters tall, screens for Rose at points.

When facing him, he is like an eagle catching a chicken, being manipulated by his opponent at will.

The range of this pick-and-roll alone is beyond what a little dwarf like Beverley can handle.

Rose, who entered the paint, looked directly at the basket.

Faced with Randolph, who came to defend him, he did not slow down the entire process. It was an anti-human disguise, and his knees almost touched the ground.

The next second, Rose jumped high from the side of Randolph's body and pulled the stick directly in the air to avoid Jordan's backhand block.

Rose, who completed a one-on-two in the penalty area and made a layup, received an additional penalty from the referee.

Not far away, the referee made a wrist-slapping gesture towards the technical table.

"Defensive foul on Knicks No. 18."

"The goal stands."

"Bulls No. 1 takes free throws."

The entire Bulls home court instantly became agitated.

"Fuck! This is 2+1!!!"

"Oh my god, what kind of core strength does he have, people are twisting into twists in the air."

"Can you enter here? That's outrageous!"

"No, the main thing is when you look at the speed when he hits the basket."

"Stop talking, my knees are already sore just looking at it."

On the court, Jordan did not complain and took the foul.

After making the free throw, Randolph stood next to Jordan and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looking at Rose's back with a bit of horror.

"Is this kid risking his life by playing basketball?"

Little Jordan also spread his hands helplessly.

"The devil knows."

He is also a very physically demanding player.

DeAndre Jordan knew very well that after playing a game very hard, his knees would be sore for several days.

In severe cases, even walking feels uncomfortable.

For a player like Rose who started and finished so explosively, he would probably have to use ice packs to cool down halfway through the game.

If nothing else, the temperature of this guy's meniscus friction every day is probably higher than the human body temperature.

Little Jordan felt scared when he saw Rose being so desperate.

With this goal, the Bulls also showed their attitude.

They came here to risk their lives tonight.

On the Knicks bench.

Coach Prosser frowned.

Rose was in better shape tonight than he expected.

Beverley was sent in this game just to let him limit Rose, thereby freeing Deron and saving Deron his energy.

As a result, the Bulls were immediately fooled at the beginning.

This game is definitely going to be tough.

Sure enough, after this game, the Bulls focused on stability every game.

Either pick and roll, or give the inside a chance to try.

Putting aside the problem of Rose on the outside, Boozer on the inside is not a fuel-efficient light either.

As the power forward who is most often compared together in the league.

Boozer is nicknamed Malone's second generation by fans.

His solid low-post footsteps, excellent rebounding sense, and super high basketball IQ have made him favored by many teams in the league.

The same is true for Randolph, the big black bear.

Even his back-up skills are better than Boozer's.

His super weight also makes him extremely lethal inside. Any power forward who touches him will be skinned.

In the first quarter of the game, apart from Rose on the outside, the biggest attraction is these two people.

The two men were dressed very closely.

From the beginning, the two people got together and fought fiercely.

Boozer and Randolph are like internal meat grinders.

As long as they receive the ball in the penalty area, waves of loneliness will inevitably come from the basket.

Two fat guys, one white and one black, refused to obey the other. They fought against each other whenever they saw them. They dueled purely on strength.

Jordan and Noah tried to cover up the defense twice more, but both of them chose to get out of the way, not wanting to suffer an unreasonable disaster.

In the studio of cctv5.

Su Qun and Yang Jian also exclaimed again and again.

"Oh, oh, this Boozer, this elbow was given by Randolph, so far away."

"Hey, hey, Randolph is in a hurry, why did he push him?"

"These two are quite competitive."

"Don't look at Randolph, the little black fat guy, who is not as smart as Boozer in the pick-and-roll."

"But he has long arms!"

"A few rebounds were pulled from Boozer's head, and Boozer was also angry."

"It's obviously my fault, why did you pick my back?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. Randolph also figured it out. He can't hold it, and he can't let you hold it."

"Today's game was great to watch. This inside matchup has the flavor of the 90s."

"Indeed, the main focus of the inside today is a physical fight."

"Here we go again! Here we go again!"

……

Another offensive turn.

Boozer received the pass coming in from the outside.

He stole a glance at the time on the sidelines.

This section ends in 10 seconds.

The two teams scored "22:21".

If he scores this goal, the Bulls will lead by one point entering the second quarter.

Faced with this opportunity, Boozer was also prepared to try his best to find a way to throw the ball into the basket.

Randolph naturally noticed this.

But at this moment, Rose's outside movement caught Randolph's attention.

Boozer suddenly exerted force in front of him.

This top shot just created a perfect passing route for Boozer to cut inside.

Randolph looked at the proud smile on Boozer's face and suddenly realized something was wrong.

This guy is cheating on me!

Boozer reacted quickly and passed the ball when he got the chance.

Just when everyone in the Bulls thought the ball was going to happen.

A hand suddenly blocks the passing lane.

Su Ye saw through the bull's intentions at a glance from the blind spot on the side.

Quickly made up for it from the bottom corner and directly completed the steal.

The basketball flew toward the midfield. Su Ye ran with all his strength and launched a fast break alone.

Ross reacted at the back, lowered his head and pursued with all his strength.

Su Ye, who originally ran first, should have the distance advantage.

But Ross was too fast, and he caught up with Su Ye in just a few breaths.

After Su Ye tried to finish at the basket, Rose jumped directly to try to chase the shot.

Su Ye was also shocked by this life-threatening method.

If it falls in the air, something will happen.

But it was Rose's forced block that successfully destroyed Su Ye's balance in the air.

The referee's whistle sounded on the sidelines.

Su Ye was also unable to finish the game. When he was about to fall to the ground, he let go of the basketball and supported Rose, preventing the opponent from falling over.

Ross quickly thanked him.

"Thank you."

"It's okay, just be careful."

Although the two had a friendly exchange, the foul was still obvious.

Su Ye went to the free throw line and made a free throw.

The first one was not very lucky.

The basketball was too deep and hit the inside of the basket and bounced out.

For the second shot, Su Ye made adjustments at the free throw line.

Before taking action, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

There are 4.6 seconds left in the game, why do the Bulls look like they are ready to go.

Su Ye took the basketball away and made the second free throw.

The score came to "23:21".

After the basketball landed, Boozer anxiously walked to the baseline and took the ball from the referee.

Seeing the opponent's anxious look, Su Ye, who had just completed the free throw, realized something was wrong.

"Return to defense!"

This sound of returning to defense became the clarion call for the Bulls' offense.

Boozer gave Rose the ball directly and decisively.

After Rose received the ball, he turned into a red lightning and ran directly towards the Knicks basket.

And this sudden fast break caught the Knicks off guard.

Su Ye was the first to react and tried to block it.

It's a pity that Luol Deng had anticipated this step and blocked Su Ye without the ball one step ahead of time.

Not only that, Noah also relied on his positioning to help Rose open a perfect channel for him to drive straight in.

Beverley, who was specifically responsible for guarding Rose, was also taken aback.

He was about to reach the halfway point and turned around to catch up.

But this guy is Ross.

Others' dribbling is a combination of man and ball.

This guy gets up at full speed, with the ball running in front and people chasing after him.

In less than two seconds, this guy went from the baseline to half court.

In just a blink of an eye, everyone has already reached the opposite free throw line.

When he reacted, Rose jumped directly on the spot and completed a dunk.

After completing this attack, time just ran out.

When the scoreboard jumped from "21" to "23", all Bulls fans in the audience were excited and kept shouting.

"rose!"

"rose!"

"rose!"

Rose, the Rose of the Windy City, also smiled and waved to the audience, enjoying the praise from the fans.

in the crowd.

Beverley held his knees and breathed greedily on the court.

Randolph also smiled bitterly and walked over to help his teammates.

Beverley returned to the bench and the first thing he said was.

"What a monster this guy is!"

It's not like he didn't try to chase Rose just now.

It’s okay not to try.

After trying it out, Beverley suffered a serious blow.

Chasing is possible.

The further we chase, the farther we go. How can we play this game?

The surrounding teammates also looked at each other in confusion.

They didn't expect the Bulls to play such a trick on you in the end.

Head coach Prosser was silent for a moment and determined the lineup for the next quarter.

The first quarter perfectly mirrored the second quarter.

Although the Knicks can score points offensively, the Bulls are not bad at all.

The Bulls use Rose's fast break tactics from time to time, which can directly change the rhythm of the game.

At the end of the second quarter, the score was 44:46, and the score difference could not be widened.

During the halftime break, Prosser couldn't help but frown.

Going to Beverly does have a limiting effect.

But the Knicks offense also has certain limitations.

The Bulls also showed their strength tonight.

Directly let the two strikers target Su Ye, and let Boozer specifically target Randolph. Although Deron can exert force from time to time, it does not quench his thirst.

After thinking about it again, the Knicks decided to maintain the status quo and not change the formation to break the balance.

After all, the scores are tight now.

Any change in formation may affect the team directly into a disadvantage.

But the same was true in the third quarter.

The Bulls didn't give the Knicks any chance, and the two sides were never able to create a point difference.

The commentators are discussing this anxious situation.

"It's the fourth quarter. It depends on who on both sides can't hold it back first."

"Indeed, today's game is indeed more anxious than we imagined."

"It just depends on whether the two sides will make some changes in the fourth quarter and seek some new opportunities."

Just as the voice of the commentator fell.

On the Knicks bench, Korver took off his jacket and began to warm up on the sidelines.

I noticed that the voice of the commentator in this scene was slightly raised.

"Oh? Is Korver going to play here?"

"Look at the Knicks."

"We are still discussing tactics. Will they not change the formation?"

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Knicks did not change their strategy.

But the Bulls took the lead in changing their formation.

Rose, Korver, Luol Deng, Boozer, and Noah formed a new system.

Compared with that one, this lineup weakened the attack on Su Ye, but improved the team's offense.

There is offense and there is defense.

Thibodeau also decided to give it a try in the fourth quarter.

As soon as the game started, the Knicks fans had ugly expressions.

Originally, the Knicks' existing defense was more than enough to deal with the Bulls.

But after the Bulls changed their lineup, Thibodeau directly switched the core of the offense from Rose and Boozer to Korver and Boozer.

Rose has become the team's blaster, always ready to help the team solve the ball that it cannot handle.

Such a tactical change will be painful for Delong.

Originally, in the first three quarters, he didn't have much defensive pressure and could just focus on connecting the entire team.

As a result, when Korver came on in the fourth quarter, the situation changed.

Boozer and Noah used crazy pick-and-rolls for Korver, leaving Korver off the ball.

And Korver led Deron all over the court, which made Deron very tired.

But Deron has to chase, because as soon as he stops, his opponent will definitely score a three-pointer.

The score is so tight now, every point is crucial.

The same problem also occurs inside.

Boozer and Randolph were on a 50-50 basis, and they fought back and forth.

Now with the addition of Korver, Boozer has several more offensive options than Randolph.

And in the position of the inside line.

Jordan and Noah are both defensive heroes, and the two of them are basically in a 50-50 situation.

But Noah should be better than Jordan.

With Korver running, Noah is more active inside and outside.

It can be said that Korver became the key point to change the situation.

However, the absence of a striker means that Su Ye has a chance to perform.

In the first three minutes, Su Ye had a smell of being able to attack and open up the score.

A wave of fast breaks first helped the Knicks score two points, and then two consecutive key singles helped the team gain a greater score advantage.

The last wave of putback dunks hitting the basket.

The Knicks successfully hit an "8:0" climax.

Knicks fans are excited.

The commentators exclaimed after seeing it.

"Could it be that!"

"Could it be that!"

"Could it be that the results are about to come out!"

Knicks fans were not given a chance to be happy for long.

Korver hit two three-pointers and recovered six points.

Rose broke through and dunked, scoring two more points.

The score difference was once again narrowed, and the fans' hearts were high. There was no sign of victory for either team.

In this game, both teams attacked well and defended well.

Within the next two minutes, the Knicks were prevented from scoring, and the Bulls also didn't score for a long time.

After the two teams reached a deadlock, Prosser couldn't help but call a timeout.

Returning to the bench, Su Ye adjusted his breathing and took two gulps of water.

Now he could feel the strong smell of blood in his throat.

He looked at the Bulls in the distance and wiped the sweat from his face with a towel.

Su Ye remembered it very clearly.

This is the year the Bulls rise.

The Bulls, coached by Thibodeau and led by Rose, reached first place in the league, and Rose won the youngest MVP award with perfect attendance.

This season the Bulls are both offensive and defensive, and they are very brave on the court.

Rose's impact in the mvp season is indeed very powerful.

This year's Bulls are indeed very capable.

Su Ye didn't expect that they would have such a difficult time facing this peak bull.

At least judging from the previous games, the Bulls are no worse than them on both offense and defense.

As for star ball.

If you perform well yourself, Rose will surely perform as well.

It's this back and forth that makes the scores on both sides so anxious.

If you want to change the situation now, only one of the teams cannot hold on first, otherwise it will definitely enter overtime.
