NBA’s aging star system

After being scored by Rose, Tyronn Lue did not panic at all.

There is still a 7-point difference, and Irving has not yet played. At the same time, the opponent's main force has consumed too much, and the advantage is mine.

The game continued on the court. This time Su Tian took the initiative to give the ball to James, hoping to let James hit it.

James broke through with the ball and then passed the ball back. Su Tian received the ball and had an open opportunity.

Direct three-point shot,

Swah——

Su Tian hit another three-pointer.

The score difference came to 10 points.

Thibodeau couldn't help it and called a timeout.

Tyronn Lue also took this opportunity to replace Irving and prepare to play the Cavaliers version of the fifth grade.

The timeout ends and the game begins.

The Bulls served, and Rose continued to hold the ball, but instead of playing singles by himself, he started to organize the offense.

With the help of the screen, he broke through two steps and passed to Butler who was cutting.

At this time, Su Tian was also following Butler closely. Butler couldn't find any space to take a shot and passed it back to Gasol in the high position.

Gasol hesitated when he got the ball and did not take a direct shot. Love caught the opportunity and followed up in time.

Gasol had no choice but to pass the ball again to Dunleavy in the bottom corner.

Dunleavy ran out of time when he received the ball. Despite James' interference, he shot a three-pointer directly.

boom--

Basketball was an unexpected hit, and Love turned around and grabbed the rebound.

When Irving saw Love get the rebound, he turned around and ran forward, hoping for a fast break.

But Rose successfully blocked it, and Love had no choice but to give the ball to James.

Rose had just been scolded by Thibodeau, and Rose didn't want to lose a ball just after being scolded.

James held the ball steadily and came to the frontcourt. The Bulls had completely retreated and their defense was in place, making it impossible to attack quickly.

James called Jr. to pick and roll, switching to Dunleavy.

In fact, whether it is Dunleavy or Taj Gibson, the difference is not very big, because they can't guard against them.

It's just that Dunleavy looks thinner.

James' pick-and-roll was not all about switching defenses, but also to break the Bulls' defensive deployment.

James stood at the top of the arc and gestured to the rest of the Cavaliers to move away.

Su Tian and the other three people quickly pulled away from the three-point line.

Seeing that everyone was almost stretched, James started to break through Dunleavy with the ball.

Dunleavy is tall enough, but his stature is incomparable to that of James, and he was crushed all the way to the basket by James.

Others can only watch and worry. Irving, Love, and Su Tian cannot be let go.

There is only one Jr. I can put there to check the situation, but right now, Jr. is the furthest away.

James hit Dunleavy for a layup.

Thibodeau looked at it, frowned, and gestured to everyone on the Bulls team.

Everyone nodded when they saw it, and Su Tian felt a little bad.

It was the Bulls' turn to attack, and Rose started playing singles directly with the ball.

He immediately put the car into gear and started, successfully catching up with Irving.

Inside, Love failed to defend and was scored by Rose for a layup.

The point difference returned to 10 points.

When the Cavaliers attack, James still holds the ball against Dunleavy.

Still starting the breakthrough, Dunleavy was pushed all the way to the basket by James.

After Dunleavy's defense was breached, Butler directly double-teamed him, completely ignoring Su Tian who was being defended in the air.

James saw Butler double-teaming him out of the corner of his eye, preparing to pass the ball to Su Tian who was left open.

But just when he was about to pass the ball, Rose switched defense and blocked Su Tian's receiving space.

James urgently changed the direction of the pass and passed it in the direction of Irving.

Just when Irving received the ball, Butler's defense also came to Irving.

Quick defense change!

The Bulls' defense worked.

James had no choice but to pull back to the three-point line.

Irving faces Butler and prepares to hit a single with the ball.

But Butler's defensive strength is indeed strong enough. Irving failed to hit a pull-up jumper.

Su Tian looked at the Bulls' defense and imagined the Warriors' infinite defense changes in his mind.

I have to say that Thibodeau has a good defense.

Use Butler's strong defense and quick rotation to induce James to pass the ball.

Let others play singles. It is obvious that the singles ability of others is not as threatening as James.

It was the Bulls' turn to attack, and Rose still singled out Irving.

This time Love arrived in time and blocked Rose's shooting space.

But Rose passed the ball with his little hand and passed it to Gasol under the basket. Gasol caught the ball and hit it directly.

Rose assists +1.

The two sides returned to an 8-point difference.

The Cavaliers don't seem so stable anymore.

James continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc and broke through Dunleavy in singles.

This time, Rose came to double-team, James made a fake pass, and Butler was deceived and ran in the direction of Irving.

James flicked his wrist and the basketball was passed in the direction of Su Tian, ​​who Butler had just left.

Butler has just changed his focus and arrived at Irving's position. It is unrealistic to rush back.

Ross had no choice but to run in the direction of Su Tian urgently.

Su Tian received the ball without stopping and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Su Tian hit a three-pointer.

The point difference returned to 11 points.

James and his four pitchers cracked the Bulls' defensive tactics in just one round.

The two teams played until there was one minute left, and the score difference was still around 10 points.

Thibodeau had no choice but to call a timeout, replaced the main player, and was ready to accept defeat.

Tyronn Lue also replaced the Cavaliers' main team and replaced him on the bench.

Soon, the game is over.

The Cavaliers defeated the Bulls 110-101.

Su Tian had 23 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal.

James scored 31 points, 11 assists and 7 rebounds, a near triple-double.

Rose finished with 25 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds.

The Cavaliers successfully won the first game against the Bulls.

After this game, the outside world also gave some comments about the game.

"Derrick is no longer the MVP he was before. He can't stop James at all."

"Really? I don't believe it."

"..."

"Although I admit LeBron's greatness, Derrick is not that easy to beat. I feel like they have to play a tiebreaker to determine the winner."

No matter what the outside world thinks, at least the Cavaliers won this game.

As for the next one, let’s leave it to the next one.

The next day, Su Tian slept until noon.

In the afternoon, I came to the arena for training.

Tyronn Lue led everyone to review the last game and pointed out several issues.

Finally, the focus was on the Bulls' final defensive tactics.

During training, Tyronn Lue also made special arrangements for the Bulls' defensive tactics.

The solution is probably similar to the "James and his four pitchers" approach that appeared in the last game.

But now after the drill, it has become smoother and the response is more timely.

The day after the Cavaliers ended the game, on May 5, there was a game between the Hawks and the Wizards.

The Hawks defeated the Wizards 106-90, but Wall was affected by injuries and failed to play.

Someone finally scored 20 points on the Hawks side. Carroll scored 22 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

On May 5, the second game between the Cavaliers and Bulls is here.
