As far as the first half is concerned, the Bulls' bull horn tactics didn't work very well. The Grizzlies did a good job of limiting Thibodeau's tactical intent by speeding up the rotation, while they also put a lot of pressure on the Bulls' defense by using the black and white Bears' interior crushing and high-low post coordination.

Although Sun Xiaotian's performance in the first half was quite passable, although the shooting rate was not very ideal. However, he has always been very demanding of himself, and he thought the performance in the first half was still terrible.

"There were a few balls that I should have scored, but they were just a little bit off, and they were all counted on me." At half-time he took the initiative to review.

"It's not your fault, the Grizzlies are a very balanced team offensively and defensively, especially their ability to limit offense, it's just getting better and better." "For the second half we need to be the first to make changes, and in the second half I want to speed up the tempo because we are killing ourselves and we have to get them into our rhythm. Thibodeau continued.

……

Back on the court, in response to Coach Thibodeau's arrangement, the Bulls temporarily abandoned the bull horn tactic.

Several times, the Bulls tried to entice opponents to speed up the offensive tempo, but the Grizzlies' leading point guard, Conley, was firmly in control of the game.

As one of the league's most underrated point guards, Conley's excellent on-court nose has always been loved by Collins. As the controller of the team, in a team with Guy on the outside and black and white on the inside, Conley's role is not lost at all.

Despite averaging only 14.6 points and 6.4 assists per game this season, he averaged less than two turnovers per game, making Conley a worthy commander on that basis.

Conley held the pace of the game steadily, and the ball was handed over to the black and white bears again and again, and the Grizzlies were like this, like cutting meat, devouring the Bulls little by little.

By the time the third quarter came to the official timeout, the Grizzlies had a 15-point lead over the Bulls 77-62.

When he came back from the timeout, I don't know if it was the coach's arrangement, or what, Collins actually arranged for Conley and Randolph to take a break.

It's no wonder, because the Grizzlies will play two consecutive back-to-back games next, and both of them are injured, seeing that the team has taken the lead so much, quickly replace them to rest.

Bayless and Arthur came on in place of Conley and Randolph.

Thibodeau suddenly smelled something, and with a wave of his hand, he removed Boozer and replaced him with Jimmy. Butler, the Bulls played a big four small lineup, and this lineup was clearly a bombardment with the Grizzlies.

Hinrich dribbled past the midfield, Sun Xiaotian and Ruhr Deng crossed the bottom line and went around the left and right sides respectively, and Hinrich saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Sun Xiaotian.

At the moment when Sun Xiaotian received the ball, Noah had already come out to cover for him. Sun Xiaotian took advantage of the cover and took advantage of the momentum to accelerate and burst into the paint area of the Grizzlies.

At this time, Guy Arthur made up for it in time, raised a pair of long arms, and blocked Sun Xiaotian's view of the layup.

Sun Xiaotian was not in a hurry, he made a leisurely jump pass and passed the ball to Jimmy, who was ambushed on the baseline early. Butler. At this time, I looked at Butler's side, and there was no one, the ball fell in his hand, and the three points fell into the pocket.

Coming back, Bayless wanted a quick baseball. When he was like a rabbit, he dribbled the ball to the Bulls' half, and even passed several in a row, and the Bulls' entire defense was disrupted by him. But at the moment when he made a layup, there was a "snap", and a big hat was awarded to Bayless.

There was a huge boo from the audience, and it turned out to be Sun Xiaotian's chasing hat again. Sun Xiaotian has actually been following him firmly all along, and he has studied Bayless. Bayless, like Mo Buchuan and JR Smith, is a tendon player who only has a basket in their eyes. So, it's very easy to grasp their movement with the ball.

After receiving the rebound, the Bulls launched a quick move at the first time, and they didn't want to give up such a good opportunity.

Ruhr Deng passed far and went straight to Hinrich in the bottom corner. Hinrich dribbled out as he observed the form on the court.

"Here!"

Xin Li Qi hurriedly looked, only to see that Sun Xiaotian had already inserted it in the middle, and Xin Li Qi hurriedly passed the ball over.

Sun Xiaotian received the ball, didn't look at it, and threw it directly to the back, and pushed away the defender Tony next to him. Alan. Looking again, it turns out that Jimmy. Butler appeared behind Sun Xiaotian, and when he received the ball, he exploded and smashed the ball directly into the basket.

"Toot!"

The referee's whistle also sounded, "2+1!!! ”

The key part of this ball is that Sun Xiaotian opened Tony. Allen, despite the suspicion of fouls, but as long as the referee doesn't blow it, so what? It was this push that made Butler have such a beautiful button.

Either Bayless is worse than Conley in controlling the team's tempo, but he still has his own strengths. Players who can establish themselves in the NBA generally have their own unique side, and Bayless is no exception.

Bayless forced shots against Hinrich's defense through several pick-and-rolls with Gasol Jr., and also threw the ball in. Like most Nerveknife, once he finds his shooting touch, Bayless will be difficult to defend.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Thibodeau hurriedly called a timeout. Replaced Hinrich and brought on Belineri. The Bulls didn't have a point guard for a while, and Sun Xiaotian temporarily played point guard.

Against Bayless, Sun Xiaotian has an advantage on the defensive end. However, Bayless had already found his touch after all. In an offense, Bayless held the ball alone, perhaps because Sun Xiaotian was a rookie, Bayless was unrelenting, and faced Sun Xiaotian is a three-pointer.

The arc of this three-point shot was very high, and when he heard a "bang", he actually hit the board and entered the net.

The fans at the scene were excited, and in the third quarter, Bayless scored 8 points alone, expanding the score gap between the two sides to 15 points.

Bayless opened his hands, stirring up the atmosphere of the fans, signaling for the noise to come a little louder.

Once a crazy player finds a feeling, there will really be someone who blocks and kills people, and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha. Bayless is copied today, which is also considered bad luck for the Bulls! You must know that Bayless only scored a total of 2 points in the last game.

Bayless is in a position to set a new career high! At this time, as the leader of the team, Sun Xiaotian must respond in a timely manner, if he can't stop it in time, the Bulls' breath may be vented, and it is possible to clock out early.
