Bulls coach Vinnie DeNagro saw that something was wrong and asked for a timeout, and the opening time was less than 2 minutes, and the Bulls were forced to ask for a timeout to readjust the rhythm.

It was a terrible start for the Bulls.

When the timeout was over, the Bulls were clearly finding a little bit of confidence when they got back on the court as Roel Deng latched on to Noah's pass and hit a mid-range jumper.

6:2。

However, even so, it is still difficult for the Bulls to stop the Knicks' offense, and the Knicks are really smooth sailing on the offensive end under the leadership of Chen Jiyuan.

Before he met Thibodeau, Rohr Deng's defense was not at the top level, but at an elite level. This is the benefit of Thibodeau, a defensive maniac, a coach who values defense more than the sky, and the disciples brought out by his subordinates will naturally do a good job on the defensive end. This is one of the reasons why rookies will grow into different people on different teams after entering the league.

Not to mention Noah on the inside, although he played very iron-blooded, he did his best when defending Chen Jiyuan, or he tried his best, but it still had no effect, which can't be blamed on Noah, although the current Noah has a good sense of defense and defensive enthusiasm, but the "knowledge" on the defensive end is still lacking, which is also the consequence of Thibodeau's failure to go to the Bulls.

In the first quarter of the game, the duel between Chen Jiyuan and Noah is often the result of this.

Chen Jiyuan is attacking with the ball, Noah is defending, and Noah's hands are swaying back and forth, just to be able to interfere when Chen Jiyuan jumps and shoots.

However, even if he did this, Chen Jiyuan had countless moves that could create enough space for him to shoot, and in the first game today, Chen Jiyuan felt how hot his hand was.

And when encountering Chen Jiyuan, who has a hot hand, then, no matter who the defensive player is, the effect is the same, which is basically the consequence of GG Smecta.

The Bulls had a very unfortunate day, and this misfortune was carried out from beginning to end in the Bulls' game.

In the first half of the game, Chen Jiyuan easily scored 16 points, almost effortlessly, and Chen Jiyuan, who felt so hot, scored 16 points in the first half of the game or said that he was playing in the first half, many times, Chen Jiyuan created opportunities for the opponent.

Chen Jiyuan also knows that in the playoffs, if you want to win, you can't rely only on yourself. The team has to have more blossoms so that the chances of winning will be greater.

Therefore, when the hand of his teammates is not absolutely cold, Chen Jiyuan is of course willing to pass the ball to his teammates.

The Bulls, who didn't find how to defend Chen Jiyuan in the first half, still carried forward their attitude in the second half, even if they were tired and tired, they were determined not to change their attitude, and continued to defend Chen Jiyuan without knowing how to defend, and continued to let Chen Jiyuan play a fairly simple and easy game.

Although the third quarter of the game passed, Chen Jiyuan scored 19 points, and only scored 3 points in the entire third quarter of the game, but Chen Jiyuan sent a full 6 assists, a center, and sent 6 assists in a single quarter of the game, what is this concept?

In other words, Chen Jiyuan didn't even have the desire to score, not because the opponent's defense was too strong, on the contrary, because the opponent's defense was too weak, and the weak Chen Jiyuan couldn't raise his momentum at all.

At the end of the third quarter, the game was already a bit of garbage time.

The score was 81:59.

When the Knicks really broke out on the offensive end, it was not uncommon for them to score more than 100 points in the third quarter, but that had to be when Chen Jiyuan and other scoring players broke out collectively. Still want to score over 100?

However, whether the score is over 100 depends on the performance of the players, and Thibodeau will not interfere too much, but under this premise, whether the opponent's score can be suppressed to a certain extent is what Thibodeau is concerned about.

Defense, that's what Thibodeau wants.

If the Knicks' opponent scores 95 points, even if the Knicks score 105 points, Thibodeau won't be happy. Although everything is about winning, such a score is unacceptable to Thibodeau's heart, and he can't use this score to face his work attitude and hard work. The defense that she has worked so hard to train is like this grandma, and it would be strange if she could be happy.

For the current three-quarter game for the Bulls to score only 59 points, although Thibodeau is not very satisfied, but at least it is acceptable, plus his own team has almost played the game to garbage time, so Thibodeau is not too demanding.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Knicks replaced almost all the main players. The five men on the court were Curry, Matt Barnes, Thornton and Serge Ibaka and Ty Gibson.

Those five people are on the court and playing around with the Bulls.

Although the difference in the score is a bit big, the Bulls did not give up the game directly, they want the world to see their tenacity, however, the Knicks are not the kind of team that will give away the victory in hand, especially the Knicks are actually a team that pays a lot of attention to defense.

Everyone knows that Thibodeau is a master of defense. However, many people don't see Thibodeau's shadow in the Knicks, after all, the Knicks don't look like a super defensive team.

But that's just the Knicks' tough offense that overshadows that.

If you want to say that the Knicks are strong on the offensive end, in fact, there are shortcomings, that is, the Knicks do rely more on individual singles, especially Chen Jiyuan's personal singles. In the playoffs, this can be easily exploited by opponents. But fortunately, this season, the overall strength of the Knicks has improved considerably, and the starting lineup of five people, whether it is Sessions or Love or Iguodala and Stephen Jackson, the offensive power is not weak.

Stephen Jackson and Iguodala are both of those kinds, as long as they are given enough shots, then the average points per game can definitely be 20+. And now at the Knicks, the two are averaging 13.1 and 12.1 points per game, respectively.

Iguodala came to the Knicks from Philadelphia, and in terms of scoring data, it can be said that he really made a very big sacrifice, but this sacrifice is what Iguodala likes, originally, Iguodala wants to be Penny Hardaway and Batman Pippen, not the flying Jordan.

As for Stephen Jackson, he originally wanted to leave because the relationship between the two of them was not very harmonious, but now that Starkey is gone, there is a little bit of growth in the addition of the right to shoot, not to mention, the most important thing is that no one doesn't want to win the championship, this temptation is really incomparable.

Sessions on the outside is a super surprising existence, and the rise of this guy is something that everyone, including Chen Jiyuan, did not expect. No one knows how the guy who was originally sullen and unwilling to speak suddenly began to explode, becoming as omnipotent as Kidd, and becoming more and more worthy of Kidd's nickname. It's getting better and better for the team.

And the inner Lefu, after a season of polishing, has gradually developed his own offensive skills, it is said that Lefu has this strength, but because Chen Jiyuan of the inner line suppressed Lefu's right to shoot. Or that Chen Jiyuan deliberately suppressed Lefu, which is also a comprehensive consideration. If you give Lefu too many privileges in the first season, you will spoil the children. What's more, in front of Chen Jiyuan, a person who has a greater grasp of the offensive end, I really can't think of any reason to let Lefu go to the main attack.

Sessions' scoring ability has improved dramatically this season, averaging 16-4 points, 8.4 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game this season. With this data, after the playoffs, the Knicks will obediently dedicate a 10 million-level contract.

Otherwise, there will be countless teams willing to give Sessions this contract.

At that time, it was not 2015 later, in 2015, a contract of 10 million was embarrassed to speak, and it was an individual who opened his mouth and closed his mouth, and he had to pay a maximum salary if he played some data. That, NBA masters, no one dares to go out without a maximum salary.

Lefou's data has also become an average of two doubles per game this season, which is not much different from last season's data, but in terms of details, if you look carefully, you will still find that this season's Lefu is much stronger than last season. Both offensively and defensively. What's more, this season's Lefu has been plagued by injuries, and we have reason to believe that next season, a healthy Lefu will explode with greater energy.

The Bulls wanted to pull off a miracle in the fourth quarter, but that was clearly unrealistic.

The Knicks' bench lineup didn't give the Bulls the slightest chance.

Although the Bulls recovered a little loss in the fourth quarter against the Knicks' bench lineup, the pace was too slow.

Half a quarter passed, but the difference between the two teams was still 17 points.

Both Curry and Thorton fought back deeply from the outside.

Speaking of Curry, the final decision has not yet been made on this season's Rookie of the Year, and it is almost certain that it is one of the two people, Curry and Tyrick Evans.

As for who it is, it's really hard to say.
