I'm not a basketball bully

Chapter 432

After Prosser's timeout, the first solution was to change the lineup.

Originally, Beverley was on the court, and although the effect of defending Rose was quite good, the Knicks' offense was still too limited.

Beverley is still not good at beating Rose.

If you want to be like Rose, you must have the ability to attack independently and bring some defense.

Even if you can't defend him one-on-one, you can still force your opponent to the inside and leave it to Jordan to deal with it.

We don't pursue the goal of completely restricting Rose, as long as we can do it and guide Rose in a breakthrough direction.

After thinking about it, Prosser chose the only answer.

Dragic.

As a player who can rotate with Beverley, Dragic has the ability to attack independently and can also promote transitions. He should be the most suitable candidate.

Dragic himself never thought that the coach would believe him at this time.

The Knicks completed the change and returned to the game.

The Bulls also noticed the changes in the Knicks.

Rose stood in his own half with his hands on his hips, lowering his voice and asking Korver beside him.

"Kyle, what do you think the Knicks' substitution means?"

Korver, who had been teammates with Su Ye before and won a championship, naturally knew that Su Ye's explosive power was beyond ordinary people in the last few minutes.

He looked at Dragic who was still warming up after coming on the field from a distance, and frowned.

"It should be to give Su Ye some space."

"But we don't rule out new tactics."

"No matter what, it should be much easier for you without Beverly."

Rose pondered for a moment after hearing this.

As the team's main controller, he also patted Korver on the shoulder and gave instructions.

"I'll notify Qiao Jin later and ask him to be careful."

After finishing speaking, Rose's eyes stayed on Jordan for a moment.

"It's okay."

"Two more times and he won't dare to spend so much money."

"I'll look for an opportunity later."

Korver nodded solemnly, his eyes glancing at Rose's knees from time to time, showing a little distress.

Bulls tactics This season's tactics are very simple.

With Rose as the main point guard, he constantly attacks the opponent's inside line, promotes fast breaks, and wins by speed.

It can be said that every team in the league knows what the Bulls are going to do, but they can't prevent it.

Other main point positions like to pick short players to play, or players who are not strong defensively to score.

Bulls are the complete opposite.

They often let Rose attack the opponent's strongest defensive player inside to draw fouls.

Once or twice makes no difference.

But no center can resist calling his name every time.

Once you get three or four fouls, every player will be timid.

And this just caters to Rose's strong finishing ability.

Relying on the opponent not daring to let him go rashly, Rose can attack the opponent's penalty area unscrupulously.

After the Knicks failed to succeed in this attack, Jordan followed Su Ye and trotted back to defend.

As he walked, he was still complaining to Su Ye.

"Boss, this kid is a little crazy. I committed the third offense."

"When I see them like this, they want to stab me."

"This kid Qiao Jin is not a human being. He always wants to squeeze me into Ross."

Su Ye couldn't help but frowned after hearing this.

After the first three quarters, Jordan has calmed down.

If it were another center, I'm afraid the fourth offender would be trembling by now.

Fortunately, NBA referees are very strict with five fouls. Unless there is something too outrageous, they generally will not give five fouls at will.

But the problem is, Rose is desperate for his life.

Even if you restrain yourself a little, he doesn't even want to hide from you and bumps into you forcefully.

Su Ye also gave Xiao Qiaodan a sure message.

"Hide if you can."

"I'll disturb him a little."

"Be careful."

After saying that, the two people went back to position themselves defensively.

And just as Jordan expected.

Rose clearly wanted to take a stab at him.

Next to him, Noah kept changing his position, trying to stand beside him, trying to give himself a position where he could try to block shots but not completely interfere.

To put it bluntly, the goal is to wait for Rose to get inside and let him deceive himself into committing a foul.

DeAndre Jordan learned a lot of inside skills from Hayes' side.

As soon as he saw Noah looking for a position to attack himself, he immediately settled down and did not give the opponent any chance to get close to him.

Noah was also anxious.

He also didn't expect that Jordan would confront him.

Seeing Rose on the outside getting rid of Dragic's defense, he will drive to the basket.

Noah rolled his eyes and thought of a perfect solution.

He retracted his front foot, pushed back with his hind foot, and retreated directly.

I'm not stuck anymore!

Xiao Qiaodan was also confused when he saw this scene.

But it was imminent for Rose to enter the inside, and he also remembered Su Ye's words, asking him to avoid Rose.

Just when Jordan was about to retreat and try to interfere rather than block shots, Noah stepped forward again and firmly blocked his position.

This time Little Jordan couldn't move.

Moving forward, Ross is coming at full speed.

Retreating, Noah blocked the retreat.

Sometimes, it's not that he wants to find Rose, but Rose will take the initiative to find him.

These two old Bulls partners can be said to have a good understanding of each other, and their tacit understanding is perfect.

Seeing that Jordan couldn't move, Rose jumped into the air and rushed over to the opponent's head.

Obviously, Jordan, who raised his hands high, could only leave this situation at the mercy of the opponent.

After completing the pull-up in the air, Rose lost his balance and fell heavily to the floor.

The whistle sounded.

Even if Jordan wanted to explain to the referee in this situation, it would be difficult to explain.

One fell to the ground and the other was helpless.

This is a foul when rushing to the frame, leaving any center with no choice but to curse.

When the commentators saw what happened to Jordan, they also sighed.

"Oh, what can I say? It depends on whether the referee will give the decision or not."

"This is not good news for the Knicks. Jordan is going to commit four fouls."

"The referee is still watching the video replay, so we'll take a look too."

"Ouch! Rose's fall was really heavy. Jordan had a tendency to press forward while standing still. It must have been a foul."

"Hey, don't tell me. Most people really don't notice it. I guess the referee didn't see it either. Look at Noah."

"I'll take a look."

"Hey, this Noah, he played a card position and got stuck by Jordan. He lost his focus."

"I really have to say, Rose and Noah are really good partners in the Bulls. Who is not confused between these two."

"What should I say? Look at the referee's result."

"Give it, give it, Jordan committed four crimes!"

"There's nothing you can do about it. Noah is just blocked. There is no foul. But you can't press forward without standing firm."

"It's hard for the Knicks now."

"Jordan is still too young and too innocent. People who play inside in the NBA have a dirty heart."

……

On the court, during the foul period, Jordan was also full of grievances.

He didn't even think that Noah wouldn't be stuck.

Even when he stood still, the opponent suddenly came up to block his position without any pulling movements.

But blocking shots, blocking, and interference under the basket are three different focuses.

Blocking shots while blocking, and interfering while blocking are two completely different things.

Jordan had just stood up and was about to try to interfere, but Noah directly destroyed his center of gravity, causing his upper body to shake a little.

It was during this swaying moment that Rose took off and ended it forcefully.

The two of them cooperated so well that they directly got themselves fouled.

Su Ye didn't expect that Jordan would get his fourth foul so quickly.

There are still six minutes left before the end of the game. If Jordan is really fouled five times in the next six minutes, he will not be far from being expelled.

But after Su Ye watched the replay, he felt relieved.

This trick can only be used once, and the referee will not give a penalty next time.

"It's okay."

"Just play normally."

"come on! Come on!"

Su Ye cheered up his teammates.

Rose made two free throws and made both of them.

After making the free throw, Su Ye also took the initiative to take the ball from Deron.

After holding the ball through half the court, he faced Luol Deng's defense, and Su Ye's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The next second, a quick change of appearance shook Luo Erdeng to fear.

Although it was Su Ye who had been facing him in the previous few quarters.

But now Su Ye is obviously more lethal than the previous three quarters.

The change of dribbling rhythm is so flexible that he doesn't look like a guy who was born in the inside.

Especially when one transformation is followed by a second transformation.

Both transformations made Luo Erdeng feel his ankles were sore and he almost lost his center of gravity.

But fortunately, this guy's arms were long enough and he still blocked Su Ye's offensive line a little.

When he saw Su Ye was about to break through him, Luo Deng stretched out his long arms, trying to block Su Ye half of his body.

Unfortunately, experience misled him.

If you are an outside player, your blocking like this will be effective.

But the other party was Su Ye.

It's not something you can stop with just a little bit of force.

Like a charging rhinoceros, Su Ye knocked Luo Deng's arm away and drove straight towards the basket.

This breakthrough method that combines skill and brutality also caught the Bulls off guard.

Do you think he's going to use tricks to get past you?

wrong!

He can just run over!

Just when you thought Su Ye was going to open the way with brute strength, his skillful dribbling dazzled you again.

Su Ye, who has two completely different breakthrough methods, is unmatched in his dominance on the back line.

"pass!"

"Oh my God! Su Ye, he ran into the restricted area!"

"The Bulls didn't expect Luol Deng to be broken through so easily."

"Can you make up for it?"

"Noah made up for it!"

"Su Ye!!!"

In the CCTV studio, the two commentators, Su Qun and Yang Jian, had already stood up.

on the screen.

Su Ye jumped high under the basket, his head almost level with the frame.

Noah, who was rushing to make up for his defense, was completely confused when he saw the height of his jump.

This was the first time he faced Su Ye in this way in today's game.

And Su Ye also mercilessly smashed the basketball in his right hand into the basket.

Noah, who was trying to block the shot under the basket, collided head-on with Su Ye.

With the strength of the two confronting each other, Noah could only cover his head and retreat continuously, receiving a full set of dunks.

Faced with such an obvious collision, the referee obviously issued a defensive foul.

Noah defended himself to the referee with a look of disbelief on his face, while people in the commentary box also exclaimed again and again.

"Ouch! This is a foul! Then Noah also commits four fouls!"

"I didn't expect that Ross just hit a ball, and Su Ye returned it right away."

"Su Ye is venting his anger on Xiao Qiaodan this time. He is so loyal."

"Who would have thought that Su Ye would stand up at this time."

"This goal is really a stimulant. Look at the Knicks bench, they are jumping for joy."

On the stage, Su Ye, who completed the dunk, clapped his hands leisurely and looked around.

The teammates around him didn't expect that Su Ye wanted the ball to stand up for Jordan.

Little Jordan's eyes turned red, and he slapped his chest with his big hand and made two muffled sounds.

"Boss."

"No more."

"Today I said I was going to be ejected, and I couldn't let the Knicks take a point off my head."

As soon as he said this, Su Ye also showed a satisfied smile.

There is no doubt that when the team's momentum was at its lowest, Su Ye once again stepped up to help the team.

After regrouping, the Knicks clearly have more momentum than in the previous quarters.

After hitting the extra penalty, he faced the Bulls' offense.

Jordan jumped up on the spot without any fear of death and gave Rose a solid hot pot.

Rose, who was in the air, had no chance to take action, and was directly pinned to death by Jordan in a wave of attacks.

Although he said that, the situation on the field did not improve at all.

The Knicks' defense has improved a lot, but the Bulls' defense is also not bad.

One minute on both sides, there is still one for you and one for me, and there is always a one-point gap.

The Knicks' new formation, using Dragic, does have a certain effect.

In terms of offense, the Knicks have more space, and Su Ye, Randolph, and Deron all have room to perform.

But on the other hand, Dragic's defense is not at the same level as Beverley's.

The reason why Jordan didn't commit four fouls until the fourth quarter was largely due to Beverley's good defense.

Rose was rarely given the opportunity to face DeAndre Jordan.

But now it's Dragic, and the two are still at the same level defensively.

In the second half of the fourth quarter, Rose obviously hit the basket more frequently.

On the Knicks bench.

Prosser frowned.

He looked at Dragic in front of him, and in his heart he determined this player's final position in the new season's lineup.

The sixth person!

There is no doubt that Dragic has the ability to organize offense, and the effect on the field is pretty good now.

If he were to start the game directly, it would be a bit of a disgrace to his talents.

What's more, now that the Knicks are so short of people, the number of people available is limited.

Let Dragic be Deron's substitute and be responsible for leading the team's second team.

If he plays well this season, this guy is likely to compete for the best sixth man award this season.

Prosser was also assessing Dragic's future position in his mind, but he did not dare to take his eyes off the game for a moment.

Just as many fans feared.

The Knicks and Bulls were so close that they couldn't tell the difference.

Seeing the game coming to an end, this game is a kind of torture for players, coaches or fans.

On the other hand, Su Ye's touch rate within the team gradually increased, and he began to help the Knicks find scoring opportunities one after another.

On the one hand, Rose and his teammates cooperated more and more tacitly, attacking the Knicks' penalty area again and again, trying to knock Jordan into five fouls.

In the final four minutes of the game, Rose finally did it.

Jordan blocked a shot and collided with Rose, and both of them fell to the ground.

The teammates helped up the two people who had fallen badly, and the referee had no choice but to give Jordan his fifth foul of the game.

And having five fouls in hand also means that if Jordan commits one more foul, he will be directly ejected from the game.

At this critical moment, Prosser and Thibodeau thought together.

Call a timeout.

Thibodeau wanted to give Rose a break to prepare for the final three-minute showdown.

But in just one minute, Prosser chose to change his formation.

At critical moments, traditional defenders still don't work.

Beverley can't play because he will affect the Knicks' offense, and now the Knicks need to score.

And apart from Beverley, there are only big players left.

Now the big man has to keep an eye on Rose's position and cause more interference to him.

Otherwise, if this situation continues, Jordan will definitely get his sixth foul in this game.

The first Thibodeau timeout.

Prosser decisively replaced the most trusted Wilson Chandler.

He felt that this guy's height advantage should cause some trouble for Rose.

But Prosser overlooked another issue.

Wilson Chandler is too slow on his feet.

Rose made several consecutive dribbling moves that made Wilson Chandler unable to find his way.

It was easier for him to pass Wilson Chandler than it was to pass Dragic.

Fortunately, Su Ye immediately made up the defense, broke the Bulls' attack, and successfully changed the ball.

The moment he got the ball, Prosser called his timeout.

During the timeout, Wilson Chandler looked apologetic.

He also knew that the task he had now was very heavy, and that he was being passed over in one step. This was something he had not even thought of.

The teammates around him also noticed that something was wrong with him, and they all stepped forward to comfort him.

Su Ye took a sip of water, looked around, focused on the Bulls, and asked Prosser softly.

"How about we let that kid try again?"

Prosser was slightly startled.

He obviously knew who "that boy" Su Ye was talking about.

Without Wilson Chandler, the only big man on the team who can step up is Stephenson.

Stephenson's performance tonight is beyond words.

In the round of regular rotation, this guy took 4 shots and didn't hit one.

Fortunately, he helped the team grab two key offensive rebounds to make up for it.

Otherwise, this guy's performance today was purely 0.

Prosser glanced at Stephenson, who was full of expectations, and frowned.

He knew it too.

This guy is a double-edged sword. If he doesn't use it well, the Knicks will lose.

After thinking again and again, Prosser waved his hand to the assistant coach beside him.

The assistant coach turned to Stephenson behind him and shouted.

"Substitute."

"Stephenson, you're ready to play."

Stephenson, who couldn't wait any longer, pulled off his coat.

"I'm coming!"

He didn't even take off his training pants. As he spoke, he ran towards the technical stage to prepare for the handover.

This joyful look made the fans at the scene burst into laughter.

The originally depressing atmosphere in the arena was slightly relieved.
