At halftime, Thibodeau did not deliberately arrange any tactics, mainly focusing on psychological massage.

"The Grizzlies are a good team, and Coach Hollins has a mature and well-developed defensive system, but it's not invulnerable. Because we're better. Thibodeau paused and took a sip of water.

"The Grizzlies don't have a famous shooter like Gallinari, so they're bound to have a problem shooting percentage when their stamina drops in the second half, so let's rest and let our muscles relax and adapt."

On the other side, Hollins said less, he just told the players to rest as much as possible and drink more water, in fact, he also knew that words were the most useless at this time, and the players in the second half of the opponent's biting defense would definitely be affected.

What can be done now is to try to keep them from stressing too much psychologically.

"After this fight, I'm going to watch a movie with Leco." Li Ming hugged the towel with a longing look, and Guy on the side looked confused.

Soon, the short fifteen-minute break ended and the players were back on the pitch.

In the second half, Thibodeau put Belinelli back into the starting line-up, Noah rested, leaving Boozer alone, with Hamilton, Radmanovic and Tayi Gibson coming on.

On the Grizzlies side, Conley rested off the court, Arthur played with Gay, Allen, Li Ming, and Bayless, and Coach Hollins did not play Randolph.

The coaches on both sides are not simple, and there is no problem with such an arrangement. Belinelli was attacking and defending, and Tayi Gibson playing with him was a good way to cover up the problem.

At the same time, with a big three-point player Radmanovic outside the three-point line, the space is further opened.

The Bulls serve first, and Belinelli holds the ball on the line and on the left and right cycles.

Boozer mentioned the high post as a cover, and after a few simple combinations, the ball was in Boozer's hands again, and in the face of the slightly immature Arthur, Boozer raised his hand to be a long-distance two-pointer.

“Bi

go!!”

Hehe, this kid is much better fooled than Rudy Guy and Randolph, he can only stand on the pile and defend, and fly at one point. Boozer was already thinking about how to beat Arthur in the next round.

Bayless dribbled the ball while looking at the coach on the sidelines, who had no special instructions.

The ball was given to Guy on the line, and Guy faced Gibson's defense and began to play with his back to the single.

One time, two times...... The sound of muscles colliding can be heard.

"Tayi has a lot of strength in his lower body, so he can get almost 20 minutes of playing time under the demanding coach Thibodeau, almost every night." Larry Bird apparently did his research.

Although he doesn't play now, he is a competitive man, and the pride of the league's top press force him to do a lot of preparation before the commentary every night, and the player's technical characteristics are naturally listed.

Guy turned around with difficulty to hit the board, although the ball went in, but he himself was sweating, and his waist seemed to be poked by this Gibson with secret force, a little uncomfortable, faint pain.

The Bulls served quickly, and the ball was in Boozer's hands again, and this time Arthur learned quickly and immediately reached forward to block his shooting sight.

However, Boozer only made a fake shot, and the man was already in the middle of Arthur's pounce.

"It's not good, this stupid guy is too easy to jump, why doesn't he grow up, he learns so slowly." In desperation, Guy had to reach out and grab the empty Boozer in front of him.

Two free throws, but fortunately, Boozer missed a goal and picked up a point for nothing.

Guy whispered a few words in Arthur's ear.

"Ya, you also go to educate others, you dance more ferociously than anyone else, and you always gamble on defense." Li Ming and Bayless despised Guy at the same time.

I suspect that Hollins on the sidelines should have had the same mental activity at the same time.

Li Ming dribbled through the half court by himself and found Guy outside the three-point line, there was no one in front of him to defend, and he shot calmly - hit the iron!! The rebound was picked up by Gibson.

He himself was embarrassed to stick out his tongue at Li Ming, meaning: Dude, I don't want to, you know, brother, my crooked machine gun on the outside line is here and there.

"Oh yes, I can't see it, this is the Bulls' defensive strategy, instead of trying to chase others, it is better to set a trap and pass the ball to Guy, who is only 34% on the outside." Li Ming shook his head.

The Bulls gave the ball to Boozer again, and then the Grizzlies players realized that the guy had never been in the basket at all in the second half, and the Bulls only had a two-meter-and-six-meter fake center Gibson under the basket.

Boozer, who was almost two meters and a zero, kept floating on the outside, which made Arthur's defense very difficult.

Just before the commentator finished speaking, Boozer shot again, again, this time he didn't even feint, just glanced up at the basket, Arthur didn't dare to pounce, and shot directly.

65-59, the Bulls scored five points in three straight games, all scored by Boozer, and only missed one free throw in the middle.

Li Ming looked at Arthur and motioned for Guy to go with him to change guards, and Arthur went to stare at Gibson, who was not a threat on the outside.

Guy received a look and understood.

On the offensive end, Guy held the ball quickly and made a jump pass to Bayless outside the three-point line on the right, and Hamilton stepped forward to defend.

Hamilton's role now is mainly to use his containment to create opportunities for his team-mates.

On the defensive end, I can only try my best not to be penetrated, after all, where is the age, and I can't outrun those young men in their early 20s on two legs.

Bayless stretched out his right foot and probed, Hamilton did not react, although he is old, but after all, the experience of the core players of the championship is there, and there is still a legend in the rivers and lakes.

It's not like Arthur's stunned youth. Bayless saw that he was unmoved, and could only accelerate to break through, and the first step was very large, just when Bayless felt that he had passed him.

Hamilton unknowingly cut off the ball from behind, not sticking to it at all, and flicked it across the front court.

Belinelli received a stance from outside the three-point line, and Guy was on his feet and had already arrived in front of him, and a pair of big hands covered him.

Belinelli smirked and gave the ball to Boozer, who took three steps and two steps into the box, and a slam dunk ignited the excitement of the home fans.

"Wow, how's that? I've said it, it's worth it, I can't see Derek, but it's the same with Carlos, you've seen any big man with his touch. A fan excitedly gestured to his female companion next to him.

So, are you really ignorant or deliberately pretending to be this fan, have you forgotten the summer rain lotus on the shore of Daming Lake? Don't you remember Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks?

At the beginning of the second half, Boozer scored seven points in a row to ignite the momentum of the home team, and the eyes of the players on the court were on fire, as if they wanted to eat the Grizzlies players in front of them.

On the defensive end, they were bold in their predictions and moves, and those over-the-top physical reactions did not take their physical strength as much as they were depleted by the adrenaline rush, but were much more flexible.

How can Li Ming watch others pretending to be forced, or Carlos Boozer, after all, in Li Ming's era, this man was the enemy of the whole people, of course, there is no derogatory meaning, because his all-round skills once made Yao Ming very embarrassed.

Therefore, anyone can score, but Boozer can't, Li Ming gritted his teeth, and had to think of a way to beat him down.

While thinking about it, Bayless's pass was already in front of him, Li Ming strode into the penalty area, an Iguodala-style fire to the sky, and Gibson kept up with him, but he was still half a beat slower.

I could only watch him dunk the ball into the basket.

"Wow, this shot is timely, I think if the Grizzlies still can't score points this round, Coach Hollins will call a timeout." Reggie Miller said with his mouth covered, apparently also shocked by the dunk.

After all, in their eyes, the physical fitness of yellow-skinned players is simply not worth mentioning among black players, and violent dunks like this are very rare.
