Chapter Seventy-Five: Windy City Roses

At the beginning of the game, the Bulls' players looked indifferent, without any expression on their faces, and the Spurs began to wonder how to make it seem like they had a grudge?

Jumping ball, Joaquin Noah tried his best to grab the ball from the basketball and the Bulls. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Derrick Rose quickly reached the front court with the ball, and after a pick-and-roll screen, a very fast change of direction broke through, and scored two points on a layup.

The Bulls didn't communicate during the whole process, and they ended this wave of offense with a sullen head, and when it came to the defensive end, the Bulls were even more serious, they strictly implemented their tactics, and the oppressive defense, quick changes and flexible rotation defense directly made the Spurs' offense sluggish.

In the first wave of the Spurs' offense, Tony Parker chose to cooperate with Tim Duncan, thinking that the cooperation of the two veterans could easily tear apart the Bulls' defense, but the Spurs continued to cover and pull and did not find an opportunity for them, but Danny Green found an open opportunity in a pile-around run, but Danny Green's opening hand was not very good, and the three-point shot hit the basket and failed to shoot.

Back on the defensive end, it was still Derrick Rose who took the ball, he dribbled on the outside for a while, walked directly forward, rushed to the inside line, attracted the bag and quickly distributed the ball, and the run-up Richard Hamilton received the ball and shot, hit the shot, and the Bulls scored two more points.

Windy City Roses dominated the first two offensive and defensive rounds, and the Spurs were already feeling the tough of the game.

On the offensive end, Tony Parker chose to cooperate with Tim Duncan again, he directly chose to cut in, rushed to the inside line with the ball, but Ruer Deng, who came over to make up the defense, bumped into Tony Parker, Tony Parker frowned, this confrontation seems to be a bit too much.

However, the referee did not blow the whistle, and the Spurs had to continue their offense, Tony Parker steadied his body and passed the ball directly to the ground, the left side was close to the basket, Tim Duncan received the basketball, he dribbled to the side, and in the face of Carlos Boozer's defense, Tim Duncan directly chose to shoot.

The close-range shot was an easy hit and scored two points, but the two points did not make the Spurs happy, and Greg Popovich, who was watching the game with his chest on the sidelines, frowned instead.

In this game, the Bulls seemed to behave strangely.

"The Bulls seem to be playing this game with playoff intensity, right?" Mike Budenholzer walked up to the front and whispered into Popovich's ear.

Greg Popovich nodded: "Well, it seems that yes, it seems that Tom Thibodeau said something before the game, this game, either we will show playoff level intensity, or we can only find a way to bite the score, and then counterattack when they can't hold it in the second half." ”

Greg Popovich felt that it was impossible for the Bulls to hold on to this intensity until the end, and it was only the regular season, and it was basically impossible for the Bulls to use this playoff intensity until the end of the game, unless the Bulls didn't want to play the next few games.

Especially in the shortened season, when a playoff-intensive game is played, the physical exertion is equivalent to two or three regular season games, and Popovich doesn't believe the Bulls will make this choice.

The game continued, Derrick Rose still dominated the Bulls' offense, and his breakthrough alone made the Spurs' defense scattered, at this time Derrick Rose was in peak condition, and he over-speed to break through with one hand, so that the entire league could not find a good way to deal with him, since last season, Derrick Rose has been a bit of a superstar.

Last season, if it weren't for LeBron James' decisive change of defense, perhaps the Finals would have turned into a double-bull battle.

So, thinking of the success story of the Heat, Popovich decisively made adjustments, Kawhi Leonard switched to Derrick Rose, Popovich hoped to take advantage of Kawaii's height and arm length, lock Derrick Rose's point, and slowly drag the game down.

"It's the Bulls' offense again, they've completely dominated the game, but we've seen that the Spurs have adjusted, and Kawhi Leonard has switched to Derrick Rose, and it seems that Popovich understands that as long as Derrick Rose is choked, the Bulls' offense will be extinguished. ”

With a wave of Popovich's hand, Kawhi Leonard had no choice but to push in front of Derrick Rose.

Seeing that the Spurs changed defensive players, Derrick Rose still did not change his expression, he continued to dribble the ball steadily outside the three-point line, and so far in the first quarter, he has 8 points and 4 assists, and the Bulls have easily suppressed the Spurs because of his activity on the court.

"In this game, the Bulls must win, because the Bulls have me - Derrick Rose!"

Derrick Rose didn't look at Kawhi Leonard, he started directly, the first step was fast, he broke through the Kowhi Leonard encirclement and interception, and rushed directly to the penalty area!

"Derrick Rose, another change of direction breakthrough! Kawhi Leonard simply can't resist!"

"Derrick Rose scored two more points!"

Seeing that Kawhi Leonard still failed to defend against Rose, Popovich's heart sank, if the game continued like this, the Spurs would definitely fall behind before halftime, Popovich didn't expect the Bulls to be so difficult to deal with, of course, it is not that the strength of the Bulls is too strong, strong to the point of being a grade higher than the Spurs, but the fighting spirit of the Bulls in this game is too strong, and the state of coming out is also the best.

Popovich had no choice but to keep watching, the Spurs' offense had been stagnant under the Bulls' high-pressure defense, and Tony Parker's layup was missed, and the Bulls could get another chance to widen the difference.

Back on the defensive end, Popovich began shouting, "Kawaii, keep an eye on him, keep an eye on him, your job is just to keep an eye on him!"

Popovich was afraid that Kawhi Leonard would focus on other places, in fact, Popovich felt that among the three major outside single defense players in the Spurs - Anxi, Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green, among the three, the strongest single defense ability is Kowhi Leonard, so Popovich believes that Kowhi Leonard is the Spurs' most promising candidate to guard against Derrick Rose.

I don't know why, Derrick Rose felt that he was full of physical strength, and after attacking for almost a quarter, the hands holding the ball still couldn't help but want to move.

Seeing Kawhi Leonard stick up again, Derrick Rose felt a bigger defensive move.

However, he was unmoved, turned sideways to protect the ball, and observed the situation in the penalty area for a while, Derrick Rose suddenly turned quickly, always breaking through one step faster and directly throwing off Kawhi Leonard, in the face of Danny Green's supplemental defense, Derrick Rose even passed Danny Green with a very fast change of direction, rushed all the way to the penalty area, and gently jumped up to complete a dunk!

"Get two more points, Windy City Rose has broken the defense of the Holy City, this battle between the Windy City and the Holy City, maybe the winner has been decided! No one in the Spurs can solve Derrick Rose, he is already superb!"
