Chapter 701: One Will Succeed and Ten Thousand Bones Will Wither

'They won't be in this form for four quarters, we'll defend first and keep the box. In addition, when they shoot, we have to put enough pressure on them, and their shooting percentage will definitely go down. "Thibodeau took a timeout with a main focus on defense, and with Rose and Kobe Bryant on the offensive side, he didn't need to worry too much. As long as they defend the Clippers, the Bulls can chase points, and everything is built on a successful defense.

The Clippers know this better than the Bulls, and the Clippers started so smoothly today that the chances of the Clippers winning have greatly increased. In the next bench matchup, the Bulls are no match for them.

Maddie and Hill really came off in the second quarter, especially Hill Sr., who has been in terrible form this season.

Clippers fans have been fantasizing about what it would be like if the team had Maddy and Hill at their peak. However, they know that even Maddie and Hill, who are in the twilight of their careers, are not something that the rotation lineup of ordinary teams can handle.

Maddy's current flaw is that his finishing ability has dropped significantly, and he has a much better grasp of the timing and rhythm of the breakthrough than the younger players, but the decline in explosiveness makes him catch up with the defenders after two steps, and the interior assistant defenders can also catch up with the basket to make up for it, at this time, if Maddie forces his shot, it will be difficult to hit, and he can only choose to pass.

Hill has the same embarrassment as Maddie, but the two veterans can complement each other perfectly.

Maddie did the first half of the breakaway with the ball perfectly, and the second half was left to the elder Hill to complete, a combination that no one expected before the start of the season.

The elder Hill shoots 50 percent from mid-range and 40 percent from three-point range. Whenever Maddie breaks through, Old Hill starts to run, and most of the team's bench lineups struggle to deal with both old monsters at the same time.

Bench lineups for NBA teams. Generally either young players or veterans, the former is athletic but inexperienced; The latter has experience, but is not as athletic as the Clippers' two former superstars.

The Bulls lost the lead today and are losing all the games at the moment.

Hill scored eight points in just five minutes and hit 100 shots.

The veteran's outburst changed the tide of the battle, and Thibodeau simply didn't have time to adjust. The Bulls are already 20 points behind.

In this case, it is useless to have any tricks, and it is only possible to catch up with the score by relying on the explosion of stars.

That's the helplessness of NBA coaches. A lot of times they have to rely on the stars, and the rules here are too good for the stars, and the individual abilities of those stars are too strong.

The team is in jeopardy, and Kobe Bryant naturally deserves it.

Section II. The red number 24 began to take over possession. But under the curse of nearly 10,000 Lakers fans in the Staples arena, the red-dyed No. 24 in a Bulls jersey was doomed to be damned.

"Bang", "bang", "dang"......

The ridicule of the Lakers fans grew louder with the sound of the iron slamming, which had not sounded so good before.

Kobe Bryant's shooting touch is very poor, he wants to win so much, and the mentality at this moment is similar to when James returned to Cleveland, they don't have the slightest guilt, but want to prove that they have done nothing wrong. Winning is the only way, but basketball just can't be shot.

In the NBA, both teams and players. I don't like to say the word "loyalty".

Over the years, it's not that there hasn't been such a stupid hat, but the team is too good to the players, and in the end all they get is betrayal; Conversely, players who are loyal to the team often get what they get is also abandoned. None of these positive teams and players ended well, and there are too few examples like Duncan and Nowitzki.

Rose saw Kobe Bryant's consecutive misses, and immediately had an excuse not to pass.

Don't look at this guy who changed direction and didn't slow down, he lost the core war, but he never convinced Kobe. Rose felt that Bryant was only winning by experience, and this season he has greatly improved in all aspects, and is in the explosive period of potential, and will soon be able to regain his core position.

This game is Rose's chance to prove himself, so what about being 25 points behind? Rose felt that he was good enough to recoup the points he had lost.

Ji Guozhi didn't know Ross's thoughts, otherwise he would definitely laugh at him for not being able to do anything. Dare to talk about turning the tables in front of him, the "scoring king" who can score an average of 36 points per game, he must not know how to write the word "death".

In the second quarter, after the main players of the two teams came on the court, Ji Guoyi faced Noah again.

This time, Noah no longer has the decisiveness of the first quarter, although Ji Guozhi can't make a foul, but it is much easier to score, so Noah doesn't care if he can make a foul, isn't it better to score?

With 4 minutes and 30 seconds left in the second quarter, Rose scored five points in a row to narrow the gap to 18 points, and Ji Guoyi made another foul on Noah on the offensive end.

Noah has been beaten by Ji Guosha today, and the latter did not deliberately make a foul in the second quarter, but the unlucky Noah still ate the feint of his fox brother and got the third foul to rest again.

When Ji Guoyi saw Noah's fate, his eyes were fixed on Boozer again.

In the second quarter, this anti-bone boy attacked Jordan Jr. three times on the inside, and Ji Guoyi felt the need to get him down.

A bad feeling suddenly rose in Boozer's heart. His presence is very low this season, but this guy has picked up a lot of leaks under the basket with the iron of Rose and Kobe, and the average points per game have not decreased much, and many Bulls fans feel that Boozer is much better than Bosh.

This voice makes Chris. Bosh is depressed, the Bulls are two superstars striking iron on the outside, and the Heat team is two superstars striking iron on the inside, can this be the same? He and Boozer were destined to be in opposite directions.

Ji Guozhi smiled in his heart, he is now a dominant family, and all the internal and external lines are contracted by him, and if he wants to strike iron, he will also play iron all over the field, and no one can snatch the right to play with him. Today, however, his mission is not to strike iron, but to cause damage. Since the Bulls have a lot of stars, he is ready to fight all these stars, and won't the numerical disadvantage be equalized when the time comes?

"Toot!" A minute later, the referee blew the whistle on Boozer, and Ji's European step layup finally deceived Boozer's foul, and the Bulls' starting interior combination all committed three fouls.

3 minutes and 15 seconds in the third quarter. With a score of 50-33, the Bulls narrowed the deficit to 17 points, but they had two three-fouls on their four insides. There are also two 2 criminals, and they are about to be wiped out.

The Lakers fans at the scene originally came to deal with Kobe, but now after witnessing the fox brother, they found out for the first time that this fox is so powerful? Ji Guoyan is almost alone against the Chicago Five, and he can still have the upper hand? Then think about his points per game, his elbow in Los Angeles, and his sister-in-law...... Lakers fans have discovered that they already have a new idol.

This shift also happened among Lakers fans in front of the television, where Lakers fans sat in front of the TV to watch the game for the same purpose as the fans in the field. And when they saw Ji Guosha in such a state, and then thought of the current Lakers team, many Lakers fans began to try to find new idols.

The Clippers players want to be dogs! The eyes of the fans are on Ji Guoyi. Because he is the core of the team, the protagonist. But today is not the only one who plays alone, Iguodala is tired of defending Kobe Bryant over there, and Billups is silently connecting the team. Ray Allen tirelessly pulled the Bulls' defense through his runs. O'Neal also attracted firepower for Ji Guosha on the inside, and the Clippers benches not only did not delay, but helped the main team fill a lot of holes...... The sacrifice of so many people was exchanged for Ji Guoyi's super performance, but in the end, there was nothing to do with them, no wonder the dead fox was not there, and these people would explode into the small universe together.

After the Bulls' two main players went down the court, everyone on the Clippers knew what to do, and Billups and Iguodala began to break through to the interior to create damage.

However, it soon happened that the Clippers players wanted to be dogs again. Asik and Gibson guarded the basket, and the effect was no worse than before!

The Bulls are two of the lesser-known bench insiders. Successive breakaways from Clippers players came to naught. In particular, Asik's interference caused Billups and Iguodala to miss the layups, and the Bulls took the opportunity to play a 6-0 mini-surge to close the gap to 11 points with the final minute of the first half.

"What a piece of rubbish!" Lakers and Clippers fans have scolded Billups and Iguodala CBA, what a good situation the Clippers were originally, but in the blink of an eye, they were ruined by these two fools!

Ji Guozhi showed his value at this time, Billups and Iguodala's breakthrough was not bad, but the two of them did not have the height and arm span of Ji Guoyi, even if the speed and confrontation ability were outstanding, but the anti-interference ability of the final shot was still much worse than Ji Guoyi.

After the game restarted, Ji Guozhi broke through with the cover of his teammates, although he was finally caught by Asik under the basket, but Ji Guoyi's arm was too long, Asik couldn't reach it when he stretched out his arm, and the basketball hit the board into the basket, and the referee's whistle sounded.

Asik held his head and looked at the referee, who made a gesture of foul by the thug, and this goal was not only scored, but also beaten into two plus one by Ji Guoyi.

The 20,000 fans in Staples Arena all raised their hands in the air and erupted in a deafening cheer!

At this moment, all the focus on the field is focused on the fox brother who is boiling the style, which is why he can be the core - what others can do, he can do. What others can't do, he can do, it's as simple as that.

Asik came off the court, and the Bulls were embarrassed to find that they didn't seem to have a qualified interior bench?

Before this, Thibodeau had been worried about how to allocate the playing time of his own interior line, so there were generally only four interior players in the game, and today was the first embarrassing situation that the interior line was not enough. But fortunately, today's game against the Clippers with Ji Guoyi and O'Neal was Thibodeau's hesitation before the game, but he still brought Cotter. Thomas, now it's finally not like he can't really send an inside bench.

But Cotter. Thomas is 39 years old, and since Mutombo retired this season, this guy has become the oldest player in the league with O'Neal, Hill and others, should he be asked to defend O'Neal of the same age?

With only the last minute left in the first half, Thibodeau thought about it for a long time and finally didn't bring on Cotter. Thomas, he will be Rohr. Deng was temporarily transferred to the fourth position to deal with it.

Rohr. Deng's height and strength are not as good as Ji Guosha's, the last two attacks of the little fox in the first half showed off his back attack, and as a result, something that made the bull's egg hurt a lot, and Luo Er Deng was also made a foul by Ji Guosha's turn and breakthrough, and also got the third foul.

"How can this be fought!" Thibodeau was also helpless on the sidelines.

The Bulls fans in front of the TV sighed even more, they were crippled in the first half, what should they do in the second half?

At the end of the first half, the score was 69-55, and the Clippers held the lead at 14 points before halftime, but where they really dominated was the number of fouls the Bulls took. Noaa, Asik, Boozer, Rohr. Deng all committed three fouls, and as long as any of these four got another foul in the third quarter, they had to return to the bench for a quarter, which was a big bad thing for the Bulls.

Thibodeau turned white at halftime, he didn't know how this game could be like this, and he didn't see what arrangement old Dunleavy had? How did they get so many fouls?

Old Dunleavy smiled at halftime, he didn't know how this game could be like this, and he didn't have any tactics? How did you make so many fouls on the other side?

The head coaches of both teams each entered the second half with a confused head, and Ji Guoyi once again caused another foul on the nervous Bulls of the whole team.

Thibodeau immediately threw the tactical board and ran to the sidelines to protest loudly!

Boozer stared at the referee with wide eyes on the field, why didn't he expect that he was the first to be beaten down in the second half?

Ji Guosha didn't take the anti-bone boy as a target, he originally wanted to get Noah down, but this kid was shrunk by his beating, and he actually let him break through at the critical moment, and the unlucky one became Boozer.

Boozer is the only interior line that the Bulls can attack in the low post, don't look at him as inconspicuous on this team, but the Bulls' two outside lines to play, Boozer is indispensable to the containment of Boozer on the inside. So from the perspective of the overall effect, Boozer is more important than Noah.

O'Neal then beat Asik on the inside, taking advantage of the tonnage advantage to score 4 points in a row, and then learned from Ji Guoyi to make a foul on the Turks, and then Thibodeau could only be replaced by Cotter. Thomas too.

Bulls fans can't stand it at all, their outside line has been scoring, but it is still difficult to win like this, and I am afraid that the four inside lines will be punished in a while, how to play this game?

Bryant recovered in the second half and made several mid-range shots in a row. But this kind of offensive lethality is really much worse than the Clippers, and this is where the inside stars are awesome, who can not only score, but also create damage.

Rose then used the breakthrough to kill the Clippers' interior line, which was a ploy to save Zhao from Wei Wei. It's a pity that although this idea is good, Ji Guozhi is too cunning, and the defensive end uses his height and reach advantage to interfere with the shot, but does not ask for a block, such a defense makes Rose fail to score on several breaks, and the difference between the two teams is 20 points.
