Chapter 217: Fake Fall?
According to the development of the first three quarters, Sun Xiaotian is estimated to be going to 35+ again today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the fourth quarter, Thibodeau had to let Sun Xiaotian rest anyway, after all, there was still a whole quarter to tear up with the Spurs.
However, one of the conunidrums that Thibodeau needs to face is the issue of substitutions. Now it is not an exaggeration to say that the team has Sun Xiaotian dependency. Sun Xiaotian is on the field or not, the team is in two states at all.
The Bulls' bench is not much worse than the Spurs on paper, and even hesitant in some ways to the Spurs. However, the Bulls' weakest link is precisely the best of the Spurs, and that is that they have more players on the bench to instigate offense.
Not to mention that the Spurs have good players such as Dio and Ginobili on the bench, even Mills is better than any one of the Bulls bench. Counting on Nate? It's just a joke.
Regardless of the final outcome of the Finals, the Bulls will have to add a lot of things next season to play guard and forward positions.
There is a data comparison, Sun Xiaotian led the substitute to play and let the substitute play by himself, and the efficiency value between the two was nearly 60%. This is also why Thibodeau used Sun Xiaotian for so long to let him stay on the field, do you think this is what he wants to see? I'm sorry! His brain wasn't broken.
------
In the fourth quarter, Sun Xiaotian's rest can only be 2 minutes, and it is impossible to have a little more.
Xibodu looked at the bench and felt that he was a little embarrassed, but Sun Xiaotian immediately understood that it was time for him to rest.
2 minutes, a second is not much, a second is not a lot.
At this point, the score was 76-83 and the Spurs led the Bulls by seven points.
From the last two minutes of the third quarter to the first two minutes of the fourth quarter, the Spurs' bench simply played the Bulls bench players in the palm of their hands, especially when it came to defending Mills, the Bulls had nothing to do.
Although Mills only scored 5.1 points in the regular season this season, mainly because of injuries in these two seasons, he may have ushered in his explosive year last season, but the sudden injury is still a bit of a pity. Although he only played in 10 games last season, he was able to score 10.1 points in 16 minutes of playing time and shoot nearly 49 percent from the field, giving people a glimpse of Parker's successor.
Although his contribution in the regular season was limited, since entering the playoffs, especially in the Finals, Mills has averaged 12 points and 3.4 assists per game, and what is even more incredible is that he has a 47% three-point shooting rate.
Up to now, Mills has scored 15 points in this game, and it is precisely because of his presence that Thibodeau has to let Sun Xiaotian play as soon as possible.
"Let's go up and score as much as you want! Let's play this game as if it were the last! Xibodu Lin came on the scene and told Sun Xiaotian.
Sun Xiaotian is Sun Xiaotian, and now he is a god-like existence. As soon as I got on the court, I touched the ball for the first time in the fourth quarter and hit a three-pointer, which felt like an understatement.
With such a scoring efficiency, at least in this series, Sun Xiaotian really surpassed anyone.
"It's not an exaggeration that Sun is the best scorer in the league right now, and I don't think the first percentile in the league will run in the future." O'Neill preached.
"He's still tender!" Barkley didn't know how to reply to O'Neill, but just said this stupidly.
It's a miracle to just enter the league and get such an opportunity to shine in your first year.
Popovich has always been conflicted, he actually despises the Bulls from the bottom of his heart, and he is not willing to passively make substitutions or adjust the lineup, but he has to do so.
Because the Spurs' bench was about to cry.
Sun Xiaotian seemed to be crazy, and there seemed to be only a basket in his eyes.
Whether it is a defense or a bag, Sun Xiaotian is like a dragon jumping into the sea, free and free, giving what he wants.
The difference was reduced to 3 points in an instant.
In Popovich's view, it is no longer what tactics are decisive now, but whether Sun Xiaotian will always score on the court.
With Sun Xiaotian on the court, the Bulls' counterattack began, and the substitute who was beaten by the Spurs before had a backbone this time, and he wanted something.
With a three-pointer from Luhrdeng, the Spurs and Bulls were tied.
Popovich could no longer sit still and hurriedly called a timeout.
"Fight, today I'm going to be more uncomfortable than ever, he made the things I value the most fall to pieces, I don't care, we fight! Right! Fight! "Popovich is a bit incoherent.
The Spurs players were also really surprised, and they haven't seen Bo Shuai do this before.
The Spurs sent all the main players back, and Thibodeau did the same, and the decisive battle between the two sides was coming ahead of schedule.
……
Facing Green, who was entangled with himself throughout the game, although he also caused some trouble to himself, compared to Leonard, Green's sense of oppression on himself was relatively small. Fortunately, Leonard's task in this game is to score, which also gives himself some time to relax.
Green was sweating profusely, but Sun Xiaotian's breakthrough had just begun, and he thought it was very good, Sun Xiaotian's several changes of direction, Green showed what a good defender should do. However, as everyone knows, Sun Xiaotian has been looking for his defensive hesitation, when Sun Xiaotian turned around and lowered his left hand from Green, Green instinctively followed, but he just touched Sun Xiaotian's shoulder, and suddenly found that Sun Xiaotian fell back, and it looked too realistic. Green chuckled in his heart.
I thought to myself, "! Fooled again! ”
I saw Sun Xiaotian fall to the ground at the same time, and he didn't forget to throw the ball out.
"Toot!"
The referee blew Green for a foul without hesitation.
"I didn't move him at all, he faked a fall! You should warn him, not! Green was a little angry.
However, fans at the scene responded with boos in response to Green's defense.
"Please, this is a fake fall! There is no doubt that his reaction is too big! "Barkley didn't give up.
Slow-motion reality does have physical contact between the two people, but to say that Green can knock Sun Xiaotian into the air? You can guess from the camera capturing Sun Xiaotian's smile.
However, the scene looks. The visual effect of Sun Xiaotian falling on his back is also very shocking, and many people think that he should fall badly, including the referee.
Popovich was also full of anger, although he already knew that Sun Xiaotian was definitely not a simple character, but he didn't expect that he would not learn well at a young age, and he would not learn well, but he would have to learn a little "demon", which is unimaginable if it takes time.
"Can you beat us by legitimate means, can you not fake it like this!" Popovich shouted at Sun Xiaotian from the sidelines.
Sun Xiaotian smiled, pointed to Ginobili on the Spurs bench, and said, "He's my idol!" ”
"****! Waiting for me here!" Popovich touched his head. (To be continued.) )
