NBA’s aging star system

Soon, the timeout ended and players from both sides took the field again.

Both sides have made lineup adjustments.

The Bulls took Noah and replaced him with Ty Gibson.

The Cavaliers replaced Thompson and replaced Irving.

Both sides have put on relatively short lineups, but the rotation speed of the help defense has become faster.

Su Tian was replaced and continued to play against Butler.

After just a few rounds against Rose, he was replaced. Su Tian also shook his head, but the restrictions were still limited.

Go back and practice hard.

On the first goal of the game, it was still Rose who found Gasol for the pick-and-roll.

Love also followed Gasol out of the paint.

Because the lineups of both sides have certain projections, once the two people are pulled out, the space inside becomes extremely empty.

As for the others, they were all stretched to the three-point line.

Su Tian also followed Butler to the bottom corner and squatted there.

Rose took advantage of the opening in the pick-and-roll and suddenly broke out, leaning forward and rushing inside.

Rose took the lead. Although Irving had sufficient physical strength, he was delayed by the pick-and-roll and failed to follow up in time.

As for Love, he can't even keep up. He just needs to follow Gasol.

The Cavaliers were scored by the Bulls again. James could no longer paddle. He took the basketball and prepared to take possession of the ball.

This time the Bulls arranged for Ty Gibson, who had just come on the court, to face off against James.

In fact, Butler is willing to face James, but Thibodeau thinks it is better for the forward to defend James.

For a swingman like Butler, it would be better to deal with the time bomb of Su Tian.

According to Thibodeau's research, Su Tian, ​​a seemingly inconspicuous rookie, is actually not easy to deal with at all.

Moreover, in every last quarter, Su Tian seemed to be in a state of vitality, almost comparable to Butler.

Thibodeau didn't quite understand Su Tian, ​​a rookie, so he asked Butler's defense to pay more attention to Su Tian.

As for James, he can only fight in a wheel battle.

When James faced Gibson's defense, it was no different than when he faced Dunleavy. He simply passed by.

For the Cavaliers, one of Love's advantages over Gasol is that he is more accurate in three-pointers, and Gasol dare not let go.

However, Love cannot be released, Irving cannot be released, and Su Tian cannot be released because Thibodeau has specially arranged it.

Who should I let go? I can only let Jr.

Dunleavy and Gibson formed a double-team and rushed toward LeBron.

However, Jr is not someone to be trifled with. Have you ever heard of a saying?

Jr is not crazy, he is an all-star every day!

Seeing that Dunleavy dared to let himself go, jr suddenly felt dissatisfied and moved from the wing to the top of the key, arriving outside the three-point line.

Just as Jr was in position, James' pass came.

Take the ball and shoot a three-pointer directly.

Bang——shua——

Jr-Smith hit the board with a three-pointer.

When Jr saw that he had made the shot, his expression instantly became arrogant, and he walked back to defense in groups of five and six.

On the surface, Jr was extremely arrogant, but in his heart: It was a very close call, but luckily I made it.

In the next few rounds, both sides contributed to an offensive battle, because neither side could defend it very well.

At the end of the second quarter, the two teams were tied at 55-55.

Su Tian's performance in the second quarter was pretty good.

上半场一共拿到12分2助攻1篮板。三分球4投2中。

But because the Bulls' defense is really good.

In addition, in the second half of the second quarter, Tyronn Lue entered the Cavaliers' fifth team, and Su Tian lost a lot of ball rights.

Judging from the data, it seems that Su Tian did not perform better than the previous round of the series.

Some basketball commentators and commentators even began to question Su Tian: Is this a rookie? Scored 40 points in the playoffs?

Some old fans: Is basketball like this now? Can someone like this also win Rookie of the Year?

The Emperor who understands the game: I told you a long time ago that Su Tian can’t do it. It’s a pity that you don’t believe me.

In fact, looking at Su Tian's data alone, even if it can't be said to be excellent, it definitely can't be said to be bad.

As for the comments of these people, Su Tianqi was actually a little too high-pitched in the first round.

As a result, everyone's requirements for Su Tian will always be higher involuntarily.

However, no matter how good Su Tian is, he is only a rookie with limited abilities.

What's more, this is just a normal state, no cheating.

But these basketball media are still targeting Su Tian tirelessly, and there is even a media at home.

We commonly call these media "little black men".

Soon, the inter-section break ended and the third quarter began.

Su Tian and Love were replaced, and Irving and James led the team.

Irving is now the main attacker on the court, and James takes a walk to recover his strength while collecting the bottom.

On the Bulls side, Butler and Rose led the team, with Butler taking the main offense and Rose, like James, holding the ball less to regain his strength.

The bosses on both sides were present, and the bosses on both sides didn't take action. They let the second-in-command take action.

However, the difference between the two sides is that the Cavaliers' third and fourth players are still resting off the court.

The Bulls don't have so many players who can play, and it has always been a tradition to beat the main players to death.

The two sides fought back and forth for several rounds, and the Bulls began to be unable to keep up with the Cavaliers' offensive rhythm.

After all, until now, Rose has only rested for two minutes plus timeouts and breaks between sections, while Butler has never been replaced.

Both of them were affected by lack of physical strength to varying degrees.

This resulted in the Cavaliers gradually widening the point gap with the Bulls.

Thibodeau called timeout again.

Tai Lun Lu also waved to Su Tian.

Su Tian ran over in a hurry.

"Su, when you come on the court, pay attention to open up space on the offensive end and defend well. Butler is not that simple."

"Good coach!"

Su Tian arranged his clothes and went on stage again.

Facing Butler, who had been the main player just now, Su Tian already had certain thoughts in his heart.

Su Tian had been off the court just now, observing Butler's playing style.

I think I have a certain understanding of Butler's playing style, so now I'll give it a try myself.

Su Tian also seemed eager to try.

When the Bulls attack, they still give the ball to Butler.

Butler faced Su Tian and glanced at Su Tian.

Before the game started, Thibodeau specifically told Butler to pay more attention to this Cavaliers rookie.

Said to Butler several times.

Who is Butler? The proud Lord!

Butler kept chattering when he saw the head coach, obviously he didn't trust himself!

Is this possible? No way!

Then, blow him up!

Butler started a three-threat test to mobilize Su Tian's defensive focus.

In fact, Butler's breakthroughs at this time have not changed much, they are mainly breakthroughs.

Rely on speed and strength, as well as your own hard body.

The lack of changes in breakthroughs is also one of Butler's shortcomings.

But considering Butler's offensive and defensive attributes, it doesn't matter. He is still a very good player.

So Butler started to break through directly, trying to surprise Su Tian.

Su Tian activated the death coil and pressed against Butler tightly, hoping to use his own power to cause delay to Butler.

But after all, Butler's body is stronger and stronger.

Su Tian was pushed all the way to the edge of the penalty area by Butler.

At this time, the Cavaliers' inside line has not had time to enter the penalty area to defend.

So Butler collected the ball and took three steps, trying to make a layup against Su Tian.

Su Tian watched Butler jump up and jumped up himself.

The two collided physically in the air.

For a moment, no one wanted to give in to the other, and there was a brief physical stalemate between the two.
