Coming back from the timeout, the Cavaliers significantly tightened up their defense against Rose's individual offense.

But just as Tang Tian expected before, Rose is the core of the Bulls, whether it is individual offense or containment defense, it can make the Bulls open up the situation.

Rose scored, Boozer and Deng scored.

After the first three quarters, the Bulls led the Cavaliers 91-83.

Rose alone had 26 points and nine assists.

On their home court, Rose and his Bulls played their strongest game of the series.

At the end of the third quarter, reporters on the sidelines interviewed Tang Tian.

"Coach, the Cavaliers are in a bad situation on the field, is there something wrong with the team?"

"No, no problem, my guys are playing well, but the Bulls feel better in the front." Tang Tian didn't give the other party a chance to boost morale.

"This morning, some fans challenged Rose, do you think the Bulls' play tonight has something to do with that?"

"Is there such a thing? I do not know. ”

The reporter briefly explained what happened.

"That's not a good thing, but whatever the reason, our focus is still on the game, thank you."

After speaking, Tang Tian turned around and walked back to the bench.

The incident of the fans provoking Rose, which happened in the morning, has not been reported in the media much, and he really does not know.

But that explains why the Bulls played so crazy in the first three quarters.

It's not quite the same as what happened to Foreman back then, it's a head-on provocation rather than a sinister move, and the effect is sure to anger Rose and the Bulls.

If that's a Cavaliers fan, it's a pig teammate.

'Every round for the next round, I ask every one of you to be at your best, it's not going to be an easy game, we have to give it our all.' Back on the bench, Tang Tian said to the players.

Back in the fourth quarter, both sides were a lineup with one main player and four substitutes.

On the Cavaliers' side, James leads the team, with Iverson, Stephenson, Anderson and Brown.

On the Bulls' side, Deng led the team, with Watson, Korver, Gibson and Asik.

Iverson carried the ball to the frontcourt, Brown went up to block and he hit the basket and was caught in the bag, and gave the right three-point to Anderson.

Anderson made a three-pointer before Gibson could make a save.

"Huh!"

The ball goes into the net.

After entering the second round of the playoffs, Anderson changed from a starter to a bench due to tactical needs, but his three-point touch is still there.

But looking back, Korver also scored a three-pointer after Gibson's block.

As Tang Tian said before, the Bulls are in hot form tonight, and this is by no means an easy game.

"More pressing, it's the Eastern Conference Finals!" Casey also shouted at this time to remind the team.

The Cavaliers' frontcourt blocking, Stephenson's breakthrough was blocked by Gibson, Brown squeezed Asik on the inside and struggled to grab the rebound in the frontcourt, and then shot to cause Gibson's beating foul.

One of two free throws was made for Asik to pick up a defensive rebound.

Watson's breakaway was interfered with by Brown, and Anderson's follow-up missed a three-pointer.

Both sides are increasing their defensive intensity, and both sides are locked in a bitter battle.

The game was deadlocked until three minutes before the break, and the Bulls still maintained a nine-point lead at 113-104.

The emotions of the audience at the scene became more and more high, and some fans even stretched out their hands to pray to the sky, thanking the god of basketball for his favor.

They can finally see victory tonight.

"We're not going to give up, you have to have someone step up now, more impact on the basket, more defensive intensity, play this game like the last game, win or go home! We have to do our best! ”

During the pause, Tang Tian was still shouting loudly at the team members.

On paper and under normal circumstances, the Cavaliers are stronger than the Bulls.

But the game is not about fighting, otherwise the so-called upset would not exist.

Under the influence of various factors, the Bulls' performance tonight was 120%, which was extraordinary.

At times like these, the game can get tough.

But no matter how tough it is, as a manager, he has to instill confidence in his players.

This is also the part that this Cavaliers team must go through to grow.

"Let me see what the limits of you guys are!"

Before going on the court, Tang Tian shouted and threw the tactical board directly to the bench, and then stretched out his hand.

"Cavaliers!"

"Come on!"

The team members were given a shot of chicken blood, and their tired faces regained their high morale.

Don't say that chicken soup type coaches are useless, some occasions really rely on this.

The timeout came back to the Cavaliers' possession.

Paul dribbled to the frontcourt, found James' pick-and-roll and then broke through to the basket, a feint of an outward pass fooled Boozer, and then a return pass around Noah's body.

Yao Ming knew that Paul passed the ball first, and he already had a tacit understanding, and after bending down to pick up the ball, he stood up against Noah, and scored and caused Noah's beater to foul.

A key 2+1!

“Tomato！”

Yao Ming waved his arms excitedly after scoring the goal.

Yao Mingjia hit a solid free throw, and the Cavaliers chased the difference to 6 points.

"Come on! Bulls! ”

The fans felt the pressure and began to cheer loudly for the home team under the guidance of the DJ.

Just hold on to the last two and a half minutes, and the victory will be theirs!

Rose is up front and starting to press the clock and they now have to keep up as success as possible.

Noah pulled directly to the three-point line to block the pick-and-roll.

Seeing the stitches, Rose suddenly accelerated and rushed to the basket, instantly shaking off Paul and Yao Ming.

Flying like a speed to the basket, he jumped up and immediately hit a strong slam dunk.

"Smack!"

At the moment when he dunked, James rushed over from the baseline and slapped the ball in his hand diagonally!

Artest catches the ball that flies out of bounds.

The referee didn't blow the whistle!

Paul reached out as he ran towards the halfway line.

Artest's long pass, Paul hit the front court is a quick layup score.

The cheers at the scene came to an abrupt halt in an instant.

There are only 4 points left in the blink of an eye.

Rose was a little anxious, and when he broke through, he didn't notice Artest, who was switching defenses, and the two of them knocked over and fell to the ground together.

Because the ball was out of his hand before contact, the referee did not blow for a foul on either side.

James quickly got the ball, turned around and went forward.

The Bulls retreated in a timely manner this time, and Deng pressed James to death.

Deng's size is very similar to James, and it is difficult for James to have a comfortable shot.

At this moment, he noticed Paul who ran to the three-point line and threw his hand directly.

Paul received the ball and shot straight for a three-pointer.

It was at this moment that Bogans struck from the backfield and flew up the block.

"Smack!"

Paul made a move before Bogans could defend in place, and Bogans slapped Paul on the hand, knocking Paul to the ground with him.

"Bang!"

The ball was distracted and missed, but it still went to the basket after grazing the rebound!

It's a 3+1!

118 to 119!

There is only 1 point left in the difference!

Bogans held his head in his hands, his face annoyed.

Paul was picked up by Green, who was rushing over, and when he got up, he took off his braces and roared vigorously.

The Big Three came out one after another.

The bowl of chicken soup when Tang Tian paused, they did it together!
