7 points, 2 assists, 1 rebound, no turnovers, this is Derrick. Rose's score in the first quarter of the game.

After that negative angle drifting shot, Rose assisted Siakam for a dunk and then made two free throws for a foul himself.

That's all Rose did in the first quarter, it looked tepid, but it actually showed his excellent form.

Scoring while scrambling on the bench, Rose had no intention of satisfying Henson's needs for him today. If it continues to develop normally, Rose should have no problem cutting a dozen points today. But this bouquet of "roses" does not seem to be satisfied with this.

At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led the Bulls by four points. The Bulls are still in a magical state, and all kinds of fairy balls are frequent, so they bite the score. But Henson believes the Bulls can't rely on luck to last a whole game!

Therefore, Henson's order to the players in the second quarter was also very clear: "Give me a complete score!" ”

After the start of the second quarter, Henson did not play Rose for the time being, but continued to use Brogdon. Antetokounmpo sent the ball to Brogdon from beyond the three-point line twice in the face of the Bulls' shrinking defense, but the rookie of the year failed to grasp it.

While two missed shots don't mean anything, the offensive firepower can't match the requirements for pulling away from the score.

So, just over three minutes into the second quarter, Henson made a substitution.

"Your job is to score, like you did in the first quarter! Give them a heavy blow to their defense, got it!? ”

Taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity, Henson walked up to Rose and prepared to continue to take the in-form "Rose" on the field.

Rose looked at the Chinese coach in front of him and clenched his fists. He didn't say "I know" or "promise to get the job done", but just looked into Henson's eyes and said slowly.

"Thank you."

Thank you, and Rose thanks Henson for being willing to give himself this opportunity. At a time when the whole world had almost abandoned him, this Chinese coach was the only one who remembered and met him personally.

He thanked Henson for not giving up on himself, and then this bouquet of roses stepped onto the court again with the spirit of mission and MVP!

"Derek. Rose came on, and he came on for Brogdon! It seems that Coach Henson still wants to increase the offensive firepower. Truth be told, though, Rose wasn't a great shooter. His shooting consistency can't be compared to Brogdon's. Does bringing Rose to this roster really make a difference? ”

Commentators remain skeptical of Rose, after all, a player's performance in just one quarter of the game doesn't mean anything. Not to mention 7 points in a single quarter, it is a dozen points in a single quarter, and there are many examples of poor performance after the result.

They don't know what they're going through yet. Or rather, they all forgot how much energy Ross has.

Rose's first offense after coming on the court, he just passed the ball a few times in a decent way and didn't intend to score. In the end, it was George's breakaway layup that scored two points for the Pacers.

Although he didn't make a shot, Rose also found that playing next to George and Antetokounmpo instantly put a lot less defensive pressure on him.

Once an MVP-caliber athlete, Rose was always the target of the target. Not to mention anything else, Henson used to make targeted arrangements for Ross. So, Ross is actually used to high-intensity defense.

And just now, because it is rotation time, Rose is still under a lot of pressure, and the Bulls' second team does focus on Rose's defense.

But now, everything is different. With George and Antetokounmpo attracting firepower, Rose felt like he was suddenly at ease! Accustomed to being targeted by the other party, he suddenly became a "little transparent", which opened the door to a new world for Rose.

He had a hunch about what he could do today!

While Ross was thinking, Paul. George taught Payne a good lesson with a big risk. If it weren't for the Bulls' serious injury problems, Chris. Dunn and the others are unavailable, and Cameron. Payne is unlikely to be a starter. After all, before this season, Payne's career starters combined for just 15 games.

This is what happens when a person does something that is beyond his means. In George's opinion, his shot was no different from sending off.

"The Bulls didn't score on two straight games, and they didn't look as energetic as they did in the first quarter."

As he spoke, the Pacers' offense went up. The Bulls' defense was still messy, but at least they sealed the box. Therefore, George, who was holding the ball inside, split the ball and passed it to Rose.

Rose picked up the ball and looked ahead, and there was nothing but Justin in front of him. Outside of Holiday there aren't any other defensive players. No one made up for it and didn't lag behind, in other words, as long as you get past Holiday this level, Rose can score!

This No. 25 smiled slightly, he liked this rhythm the most!

Rose did two crotch dribbles from beyond the three-point line, then suddenly changed direction and accelerated! His pace wasn't as fast as he used to, but the change in pace was very abrupt.

This time, Rose surpassed Holiday by half a position. However, due to the deterioration of speed, Rose could not continue to distance the distance between the two, and if it was so hard, he would definitely be attacked. Don't forget, Justin. Holiday is a very good 1-on-1 defender.

But there is also an old style of play, and Rose can't dunk headlong into the box now, so he suddenly jumps after breaking into the three-second zone, lifts the basketball high, and then throws his shot.

Henson smiled, a smart, more than just physically playing, Rose would make people reacquaint themselves with him.

"Derek. Rose's throw, will it be a little too reluctant? Bang！ In, Rose can score as soon as he gets on the field! 9 points, which is already Derek. Rose scored his ninth point today. Justin. Holiday was so taken lightly that he didn't expect Rose to choose to throw. ”

The point difference continued to widen, but Rose did not celebrate after the goal, but gritted his teeth and began to retreat!

When he broke through, the wind passed by his ears. When he jumped to the basket, he could clearly see the defender's stunned expression.

He loved it so much, he hadn't found it on the basketball court in a long time. Ross was excited, but his excitement was no longer superficial. This 30-year-old defender, who still looks calm on the outside, has actually begun to churn in his body!

So, Ross started his performance without saying a word.

Thirty seconds later, Rose broke through with Antetokounmpo's cover. The Bulls' defense focused on Antetokounmpo who went down after the screen, but Rose suddenly started shooting halfway through.

A mid-range pull-up jumper, that's not the way Rose used to score. People have the impression that Ross is still the monster who only bombs baskets.

But he has already spurred himself desperately in the corners that people can't see, and has completed the transformation.

Rose got up and down, and the Nets were blown up into a "splash". Although his scoring was not as wonderful as the violent dunk of the year, this soft jump shot revealed an elegant beauty.

If the former Ross was a special soldier, he vigorously blew up the opponent's defense. Now Ross is more like a sniper, and to put it mildly, he ended the other party's life.

Rose scored 11th points of the game and the show continued.

In the fifth minute of the second quarter, George's breakaway allowed Rose to be empty from the three-point line again. "The Great General of India" selflessly handed the ball to the number 25, Justin. Holiday was still a little hesitant to make up for it, but he still didn't believe in evil.

As a result, Rose educated him with his second three-pointer of the night. The 14th personal point of the game! Moreover, the half-time game is far from over!

At the sixth minute and 20 seconds, Rose advanced beyond the three-point line and suddenly accelerated, then stepped back and made a jumper.

The step-back jumper, another technical move that shouldn't have been on Rose.

This time, Holiday sealed it in time. But it's a pity that Rose has already played a hand, and this mid-range shot once again hollowed into the net, and in less than half time, Rose scored his 16th point!

"Derek. Ross! Another goal! God, who is going to stop him! And the commentators who were dismissive of Ross before the game also fell into a frenzy at this time.

They seem to see the same Ross they once were, only this time, the United Center is no longer his home turf!

In the eighth minute of the game, Rose played a fake cover with substitute Siakam before breaking into the box.

This time, the Bulls finally began to make up for the defense inside, and they didn't dare to indulge Rose to continue scoring.

But when Robin. When Lopez jumped to block, he noticed that Rose's layup angle was tricky. You always think you can cover a basketball, but it's always a little bit off.

And just like that, Lopez watched as Rose's layup crashed into the net. With 18 points at halftime, Rose has no intention of stopping!

When Rose's layup trailed the Bulls by 10 points, Hojberg couldn't sit still any longer. He called a halt to the game, and he knew he had to do some targeted defensive setups for Rose. Otherwise, his team will be killed by Rose!

Well, Chicago Bulls, Derrick. Rose killed. How unbelievable that sounds.

Henson stood up with goosebumps all over his body, because he had to admit that even he didn't expect Rose to play so well.

Henson looked around as if he had traveled back in time to eight years ago, to the season when Rose was omnipotent. But as soon as he saw the corn-yellow player on Rose, Henson knew that this was indeed 2018!

Rose came off the court, still with no joy on his face. He gave his teammates a soft high-five, then hugged Henson.

I still remember the dream of my youth, like a bouquet of flowers that never wither.

Henson intends to give him more playing time and more shots...... He thinks that this is Derek. Rose deserves the opportunity. After all, before the half of the game was over, he had already scored nearly 20 points!

Instead of replacing him, Henson told him to keep attacking. Tonight, it is destined to belong to Derek. Rose's Night.

Keep blooming, Windy City Rose.
