The hole the Bulls dug for themselves in the first quarter was big enough.

"What are you doing?" Rose returned to the bench with a rare flare.

Before that, even though he was the top pick with the Bulls, he was always able to stick to his duty as a rookie, and he generally tried to get along with his teammates.

But now he did have a little bit of a fire in his chest.

The Hornets crushed them in the first quarter...... What kind of routine is this?

Anyway, they're one of the teams in the West that can make the playoffs.

Wasp Gemini? What's the big deal!

――――

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! There was a continuous crash.

Paul clapped the palms of every Hornets player with both hands, drawing enthusiastic cheers from the crowd of more than 10,000 behind him.

In this scene, the Hornets have fully recovered!

It is about to unleash its most poisonous and sharp thorns, making it impossible for people to resist.

No matter how you look at it, the Hornets are now a bit of a 'family portrait', and they're back on their way with glory on their back.

With the Hornets in full swing, the second quarter of the game between them and the Bulls began.

Rose came on the court himself at the start of the second quarter, and he was a little worried about the performance of his benches. A Hornets team with all the main players back, and the bench lineup is also unfathomable, which makes many other teams in the league extremely jealous of them.

"Defend against their offense, and when necessary, Paco and Ariza switch defenses, and Ariza goes to defend Rose." Scott arranged a tactic: "Block this kid." ”

With Scott's advice. The Hornets' bench and Rose's Bulls bench collided.

The Hornets' bench was also full of morale today, and Paul's return gave them a lot of confidence, and the Hornets led the opponent by more than ten points in the first quarter, which made them gear up to continue their glory.

Rose's two consecutive breakaways after the start of the second quarter, including a violent dunk, gave the Bulls some confidence. The Bulls, led by Rose, also launched a counterattack against the Hornets.

It's just that the good times didn't last long.

Rose was quickly taken care of by the Hornets, and he was taken care of by the Hornets on the inside. Breakouts are often fruitless.

But if you shoot directly from the outside, Rose himself doesn't have that kind of courage.

His mid-to-long range shooting hasn't been too good so far.

Sealing the Rose point, the Bulls' combat effectiveness declined. The Hornets' benches also started their own good offense and defense. They weren't perfect, but they played decently, and the Bulls couldn't do anything about them.

As a result, the Bulls were forced to be the main team four minutes into the second quarter, and the Hornets did not replace the main team one after another until eight minutes after the second quarter.

"Well done!" Zhong Yu patted Devon, who had just come off the bench. Brown's ass stepped onto the pitch.

In today's Hornets, every player is doing a good job.

Now, there are 3 minutes and 48 seconds left. The score was 47-39, and the Hornets still led the Bulls by eight points.

The Hornets put all of their key players back on the court.

The first ball was possession of the Hornets, with Paul standing outside the three-point line, holding the ball with his left hand and pointing his right finger at the players inside. Several Bulls players stood in the area inside the free throw line. This kind of defense doesn't have much advantage over the Hornets' outside jumper, but it can be useful for defending the Hornets' breakaways.

Paul immediately passes the ball to Jongwook.

Zhong Yu was not polite to the Bulls' current defense, and he still put his body in the sky outside the three-point line, and the basketball was pushed out by him.

"Huh!" Just came on the court and hit a three-point shot! …,

Barnes, the commentator at the scene, explained: "Today did not appear as some people with ulterior motives imagined, Zhong Yu and Paul had a disagreement because of the distribution of the ball. Zhong Yu's score is even easier! ”

Today's Zhongyu's score is indeed easier.

It's a lot easier.

Because Paul basically took over the organization of the Hornets, there is no need for Zhong Yu to be a father and a mother at the same time, and the whole team is scoring. Jongwook doesn't have to use his own flesh to hit the opponent's inside Great Wall, he can safely run out of position on the outside to receive Paul's pass and jump shot to score.

Counting the three-pointer just now, so far, Zhong Yu has scored 15 points today, and Paul has also scored 8 points and 7 assists, and he has received so many assists before the end of the half, and Paul is in very good shape today.

Then, the Bulls missed the attack, the Hornets counterattacked, Paul broke through and distributed the ball to Chandler next to him, Chandler drew attention and passed the ball to West, who hit a jumper.

Immediately afterwards, when Rose passed the ball to Noah, he was stealed by Paul who suddenly jumped out, and after the steal, the Hornets did not launch a fast attack, but resumed the positional battle.

Paul broke through, West blocked him, after Paul broke through to the depth, Zhong Yu cut straight down, Paul dropped the ball to Zhong Yu, Zhong Yu received the ball and passed the ball backwards, West received the ball and hit it!

A flurry of passes!

This is the current Hornets, with a Paul's tandem, once the blocking and pick-and-roll tactics are revitalized, it will be more difficult for other teams to defend them.

Pick-and-roll is a basic tactic that every team will have, but a good point guard is rare, and some good players who can strictly enforce the tactics are also rare.

Players who can really block and dismantle are not easy to find, and the people of the Hornets basically have some of their own understanding of blocking and dismantling, and the offense can be kneaded into a whole.

With 16 seconds left in the first half, the Hornets' main team came on the court and went on a 10-4 run to make the score 57-43, and the Bulls were already trailing by as many as 14 points!

The pit was getting bigger and bigger, and Rose was getting more and more worried...... The current situation of the Bulls and the strength of the Hornets, how can this be broken?

However, the most important thing for them at the moment is to defend the last goal of the first half.

If the Hornets still have this ball. The Bulls are going to have a terrifying margin of at least 16 points in the first half, so how are they going to play in the second half?

"Defend this ball...... We had chances in the second half! Rose yelled at his teammates, and he himself was hunched over defending Paul as he approached step by step.

Paul passed the ball to Jongwook.

He wanted to see what Jongwook did with the ball.

Zhong Yu smiled slightly, after receiving this ball, he planned to come by himself.

"Zhong Yu! Zhong Yu! "Voices on both sides of the pitch. They are all cheering for Zhongyu, and they have enjoyed a lot of Zhongyu's games, just like this one.

Just like this ball. It is believed that he can always put the ball in the basket at the most accurate time and place.

Gomez was nervous to come up and defend, and he was really nervous because he was worried that Jongwook would hit a buzzer-kick on his head.

"Pull away!" Zhong Yu shouted. The teammates spontaneously dispersed and ran away in both directions.

Although Paul is back, his position with the Hornets is still unshakable.

Gomez was even more nervous...... Pulling apart means that Zhong Yu is going to break through alone, but can he prevent Zhong Yu?

It's just that the Bulls players didn't follow out because the Hornets pulled away, but the remaining four people used a trapezoidal way to block the inside line.

There is no doubt that once someone wants to fight inside, they have to wait for the four of them to join forces to block. …,

Such a formation. With the individual strength of one player, it's hard to break!

But Zhong Yu kept his shoulders calm, and the basketball kept bounced between his left and right hands, and then, when he saw that there were still 4 seconds left in the clock. Zhong Yu moved!

Quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit!

As soon as he moved, his entire body instantly raised to the top speed.

Gomez hurriedly flew back to prevent Jongwook from breaking through himself, and Chung forced him to the free throw line, where he was. He and Ross were on the same line.

Zhong Yu came here, suddenly put away the basketball, jumped up from the middle of the defense line formed by Gomez and Ross, and passed it!

The second step of the three-step basket launch.

The basic skills of basketball were unpretentious, and at Jongwook's feet, he passed between Gomez and Rose, so fast that the two of them could only look at his back.

Root. Gordon wanted to come up and block immediately, but the other player was too late to come. Gordon still has his own defensive position.

It's just that Zhong Yu has already risen in the air, and he is sideways, and the whole person floats towards the basket, because of his sideways, he almost completely dodges Ben. Gordon, the whole person floated under the basket, and when no one else could come over to block it, the basketball was pushed up with his right hand.

Push it to the rebound, flick it lightly, and fly down to the Nets!

"Toot!" I have to say that Zhong Yu's ability to pinch time is also very profound, and he just pinched the time until the whistle sounded.

Everything was just right!

Gomez's face changed, and sure enough, Jongwook broke through him and hit him on the head, pushing him into a very humiliating situation.

"Damn it!" He could only mumble a sentence and leave immediately.

Thus, at the end of the first half, the Hornets led the Bulls in the first half with a score of 59-43 and a 16-point margin.

The halftime loss to the Hornets was 16 points, and the Bulls had no face on their faces.

Back in the locker room, the reporter quickly came to ask Paul: "Chris, how did you feel you performed in the first half?" Is your body back to the level you want? ”

Paul smiled and said, "It's not bad, I think I'm in a good situation now, I'm a qualified NBA player again!" ”

"Can you comment on the cooperation between you and Zhong Yu after your comeback? Is it still the same tacit understanding as before? ”

"Of course! Zhong Yu is a very good player, we have the same feeling about basketball, we can also find a point of fit, our tacit understanding is still there! You can see that from the very beginning of the game. ”

These reporters tried in every possible way to capture some evidence of the conflict between Paul and Jongwook, but alas, they could not find it.

It could be that they are too good at acting, or maybe they really don't have any problems. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
