Foster only blew two controversial fouls in the first quarter, with the exception of the one that blew Adams in the opening stanza and Butler's second personal foul with three minutes left in the first quarter.

But it was these two blows that had a significant impact on the situation on the court, the first blow made Adams unable to exert his full strength on the defensive end, and the second allowed Butler, who should have been a substitute, to go off the court early, and the Cavaliers took the opportunity to narrow the difference.

That's Foster's ability to control the field, and blindly deflecting the whistle will eventually lead to clashes on the field, and such precise and crucial blows only bring controversy.

Then this kind of loose blowing scale with uniform standards allowed the two teams to play retro basketball in the 90s of the last century in the first quarter, and the confrontation on the court was full.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 23-21, with the Bulls leading by two points.

Xu Yong was substituted for the rest with two minutes left in the first quarter, scoring 14 points and two assists.

In the two minutes on the bench, Xu Yong understood why Paul was so pinched by Foster.

Without the ability to turn the sky and the position sufficient, you are powerless to stand up to the power lackeys who carry out the judgments.

The good thing is that he is better than Paul in every aspect now, and Foster only dares to take advantage of other people, and he does not dare to target him.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Butler came on the court and continued to lead the bench to the bridging period, and then less than two minutes later, he received his third personal foul, and the dissatisfied Thibodeau rushed to Foster and sprayed the opponent's face with a spittle, and was whistled for a technical foul.

This kind of operation is something that even some fans in Cleveland can't stand anymore.

Most fans are ordinary people who are not brainless fans, and ordinary people have a moral bottom line, and they feel embarrassed to win the game in this way.

Xu Yong felt a wave of nausea at this time, not only to Fortes, but also to Xiao Hua.

Someone else lets a dog bite you, if you only target a dog, it will seem too simple.

It was also at this moment that Xu Yong had a trace of extreme thoughts in his heart, he wanted to find a way to get Xiao Hua out of power.

Because this disgusting way is the same as cheating, there will be countless times with the first time.

However, it is not easy to get rid of the president of a league, he must have a good enough strategy and long-term plan.

But the moment you can see the bamboo shoot sprouting, one day it will pierce the sky.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 80-83, and the Bulls trailed by three points into the final quarter.

Xu Yong scored 42 points in the third quarter, Butler and Adams were both in foul crisis, and their playing time was fragmented, and if it weren't for Vallejo and Holiday stepping up, the Bulls would have fallen behind even more.

But even so, it won't be a big deal for the Bulls to win tonight in Cleveland.

Xu Yong played the third quarter, and after gasping for breath, he looked up at the score displayed on the LED screen, and there were bloodshots in his eyes.

Don't look at tonight's game, some fans at the scene, the Bulls, and even many fans in front of the TV are angry, and it is even expected that the media and fans will also condemn it on a large scale after the game.

But just as the phrase "history may or may not be obscured" expresses, these things that are happening today are only a drop in the ocean in the long river of history, and only the final victor can be remembered.

To give a vivid example, in the 2002 Western Conference match between the Lakers and the Kings, Tim Donathy, the NBA referee on duty many years later, admitted that it was a black whistle game, because the league wanted a tie-break, and the Kings could have eliminated the Lakers 4-2.

What has happened to the end now?

What Old Man Time is best at is erasing people's memories.

Of course, there are some things that will always be remembered by fans, such as Antetokounmpo stepping on Irving, James stepping on Granger, and Pachulia stepping on Leonard, which is like a stain that will never be erased on the championship trophy.

So the best way to face this situation is to defeat them, in a way that they can't resist.

Xu Yong's breathing gradually became smoother, but with each point of smoothness, his eyes became more determined.

Finally, he stood up.

Thibodeau was setting up his tactics, and because Xu Yong was physically exerted, he had to replace Butler, who had already committed five fouls, on the court.

Noticing that Xu Yong was coming, Xibodu vaguely guessed what he wanted to do, he stopped talking, and originally wanted to speak to Xu Yong, but when he saw Xu Yong's eyes, the words that came to his mouth were stuck there again.

"I'll be on the show." Xu Yong said calmly.

'You need a few minutes of rest and the team needs your last physical.' After hearing Xu Yong's words, Thibodeau showed an unsurprising expression, although he could feel the firmness in Xu Yong's eyes, he still fulfilled his duties as a head coach.

"I'm fine." Xu Yong's answer was crisp.

No problem? Thibodeau was stunned for a moment, Xu Yong's consumption in the past two games in Chicago was so big, and he hadn't rested in the second half, how could it be okay!

"Tom, you should know the 'flying pig' quote." But before he could speak, Xu Yong continued.

Fliggy, Barkley's most well-known nickname when he was a player, Xu Yong's famous quote here is what Barkley said when he played against the Trail Blazers in the 1993 Western Conference finals, head coach Paul Westphaal wanted to replace him: Don't replace me to rest, what I have after death is time.

Of course, Thibodeau also knew that sentence, and after hesitating for a while, he still nodded, this was a kind of trust and understanding between the two, and he knew very well that Xu Yong was not the kind of person who messed around.

After the break, the players from both sides returned to the court one after another, and at this time, the two sides were on the court, the Bulls: Stephenson, Holiday , Xu Yong, West, Vallejo;

Cavaliers: Mo Williams, JR, Shampert, James, Tristan Thompson.

Coming up for the Cavaliers to attack first, James took advantage of Thompson's blocking to break through Vallejo, and obviously made a ruthless move, which was to treat Vallejo as a backstab himself.

Vallejo is also very smart, seeing James's energy, he stood directly outside the reasonable collision zone in advance, put up a posture and waited for James, and when he came into contact with James, he fell down directly.

Compared with Stephenson's previous performances, he is much more realistic, worthy of his nickname [actor].

It's just that Foster didn't blow the whistle, obviously, in such a game, no matter how good his acting skills are, in Foster's eyes, it is equivalent to nothing, and he didn't blow Vallejo's foul because James was still able to finish at this time.

The corners of James' mouth rose after knocking over Vallejo, and he was in a good mood with a basket.

It's just that his smile hasn't been fully revealed, Xu Yong has already slashed out on the side, and the goshawk pounced on the rabbit, slapping his shot to the rebound.

After so many years of fighting, Xu Yong is too familiar with James's staggered style of play, which is to cover James in the way that James is best at.

The ball was covered cleanly, and Foster bit the whistle and didn't blow it.

Xu Yong's judgment was right, and Foster's opening attitude also showed that he did not dare to target Xu Yong.

And Xu Yong stayed in the air for a long time, and after the ball was blocked, he directly grabbed the basketball in the glide and took the rebound.

This caused a burst of exclamations at the scene.

Xu Yong didn't stop after taking the rebound, shook his hand to Stephenson, and then quickly followed up.

The Bulls quickly played a 3-on-2 situation on the fast break, and they were still a team that focused on defensive counterattacks in the end, and they advanced quickly.

James aimed at Stephenson, who was bouncing forward with the ball, and Xu Yong covered his hat, and he must find the court.

Stephenson didn't seem to notice James behind him, he looked at the basket and made a three-step flying layup.

James jumped up, but the next second he found himself being shaken by Stephenson.

This guy who used to blow into his ears is even more fancy than horse urine in spring.

I saw him turn his head and smile at James, and at the same time he ran out of the bottom line and stuffed the ball directly to Xu Yong, who followed up in the middle.

Xu Yong followed up, and a gliding basket put the ball lightly into the basket.

He's clearly conserving stamina right now, and the blue who can go up won't dunk easily.

But the focus of this ball is Stephenson, after blowing on James's ear and successfully angering James, his self-confidence is so inflated that he dares to play the king.

Xu Yong took the initiative to high-five Stephenson in the retreat, and the referee's scale tonight is to need some unconventional play.

The Cavaliers' offense, Williams and Thompson played pick-and-rolls, and the mid-range shots were made from a quick stop.

The quality of the block given by Thompson was very hard, but at the moment when Williams shot, a figure was killed from the oblique side, and it was Xu Yong!

After Xu Yong came on the court in the fourth quarter, his presence on the defensive end was full.

Williams' shot deflected wide of the basket with interference, and the rebound was protected by Vallejo.

His passing ability is not as good as Jokic's, but as a master of playmaking, his hand work is not bad, and that is something that injuries can't take away.

The ball quickly reached the hands of Xu Yong, who landed on the ground, and at this time he was only one step away from the three-point line, and this time he directly held the ball himself after receiving the ball to launch a fast attack.

On the Cavaliers' side, only Shampert reacted, and Shampert was in front of Xu Yong.

Shampert's attempt to interfere with Xu Yong's advance was unsuccessful, and when Xu Yong advanced to the front court, his defensive movements began to grow.

This is inevitable, tonight's penalty scale is loose, and it is obviously biased towards the Cavaliers, as a defensive player, this sense of smell must be there.

It's just that Xu Yong's reaction next was completely unexpected by him.

With Shampert obviously holding his arm, Xu Yong jumped up directly, and flew to the basket with half of Shampert's body.

"Bang!"

Xu Yong hangs Shampert and smashes the ball into the basket!

A dull voice came out through the loudspeaker, and the figure of Shampert's body in the air was thrown off the bottom line by inertia.

Foster clenched the whistle in his mouth, but didn't blow it.

As shown before, it was true that he wanted to favor the Knights, but Xu Yong was violated first, and because the person who was violated first was Xu Yong, he didn't dare to blow it at this time.

There was a burst of exclamations, as well as some sporadic cheers.

The visual impact of this ball is too explosive, and it is better than James in the Cavaliers 1.0 period.

And more importantly, Xu Yong's physical energy consumption in the first three quarters was intense, and he was able to make such an incredible action at this time.

The Bulls' bench, everyone jumped up from the bench in excitement.

84 to 83.

Under Xu Yong's excellent play at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, the Bulls directly overtook the score!

Xu Yong gasped after landing on the ground.

His physical fitness is bound to be insufficient, but as a physical monster who was brutalized by Thibodeau in the early stage of his career, his physical red line is lower than others, which means that he can last longer on the court.

However, it took a lot of his physical strength just now, but it was worth it, because the morale of the Bulls obviously went up all at once.

And his style of play after coming up in the fourth quarter is very targeted, if he plays position, according to tonight's penalty scale, he needs to pay double the physical strength, but if he puts his physical strength into the defensive end and plays a defensive counterattack, it is a more energy-saving and efficient way of playing.

It turned out that he was right.

And Lu's inferiority to Blatter is also reflected, he keeps contributing memes on the sidelines, but he doesn't call a timeout to adjust.

waited until more than four minutes of the quarter, when the Bulls had reversed a wave of 10-2 to lead the Cavaliers by five points, James couldn't stand it and reminded Lue, and the game entered a timeout.

The Bulls bench was extremely excited at this time, and the eyes that looked at Xu Yong were all undisguised admiration.

That's right, all the points in the Bulls' climax came from Xu Yong, who alone blew up the Cavaliers' rotation.

Staggered travel? Your king will not only Satan will, but also blow you up a few streets!

The LED screen at the scene was playing back Xu Yong's performance just now, and many fans couldn't help but stretch out their hands to applaud when they watched it.

Xu Yong's performance of real offense and defense can really only be described by the gods descending to earth.

On the Bulls bench, Thibodeau was arranging tactics, the players were in a circle inside and outside, and Jokic, who was still wearing a training uniform in the outer circle, couldn't help but look back after hearing the reaction on the spot.

How did he vaguely feel that Xu Yong was going to play the small probability event of "playing the away game as the home field" discussed on the bus before?

After returning from a timeout, the Cavaliers scored a goal through Irving to stabilize the situation on the court.

In this round, the Cavaliers finally began to pay attention to Xu Yong's defensive positioning, and Adams returned to the court with five fouls, and the defense was still fearful.

90-87, a 3-point difference, the two sides are still deadlocked.

However, when the Bulls attacked in the next round, Xu Yong's strong attack after receiving the ball was directly dragged down by Jefferson, and the foul action was much bigger than before.

Xu Yong was not as good as his physical strength because of the physical exertion, and when his control over his body was not as good as his physical strength, he was pulled to the ground and fell to the ground.

Foster immediately whistled when he saw this, signaling for a defensive foul on Jefferson.

But what is a little surprising is that Xu Yong, who was originally pushed by James and beat James to the ground, sat on the ground and watched Jefferson laughing.

That smile gave Jefferson goosebumps all over his body, and he couldn't help but glance back at James.

How is it different from what was planned?

Butler and Adams came over and pulled Xu up, Xu glanced at Foster, and then walked to the free throw line.

Not to mention Jefferson at this time, Foster couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

Xu Yong went to the free throw line and hit two free throws to help the Bulls maintain a five-point lead.

Then, when he stepped back to the defensive end, he said a man's name to Thibodeau as he passed him.

Thibodeau nodded and turned around, and then a man stood up at the end of the Bulls bench.

Foster also arrived at the front court at this time, and when he saw the person standing up, he thought back to the set of combos after Xu Yong was fouled, and he suddenly panicked.

Because the one who stood up was Artest.

Artest passed him by, walked to the technical table, and waited on the sidelines to play.

Rao is Foster's business ability is excellent, and he was also a little sweaty at this time, and subconsciously reached out to wipe his sweat.

Referees do have unrivalled rights on the field, but they are certainly punished if there is a vicious brawl in the game they are officiating.

Xu Yong really didn't have the impulse to beat Foster, he just put the knife on Foster's neck very sensibly.

Then, when the Cavaliers' next wave of offense, when James' breakaway hit Anderson, Foster directly whistled for James' offensive foul.

James threw the ball directly, took out his braces and looked at Foster excitedly, his expression seemed to say: Brother, aren't you blowing so much in front of you? You have to keep the scale of the blowing penalty the whole game consistent!

Foster didn't explain much, just reached out and gestured to the ball in the backcourt.

Not to mention that Artest made him like a thorn on the sidelines, as far as James's current background of Adi was concerned, if it wasn't for Xiao Hua's instructions, he wouldn't have bothered to take care of it.

Then in the next round, Butler burst to Xu Yong, and when Xu Yong was violated when he penetrated into the Cavaliers' interior and shot, Foster's whistle continued to sound, and Xu Yong got two free throws.

After two rounds in a row, the people of both teams have already felt that the scale of the penalty on the field has changed.

Generally speaking, it is common for the penalty scale to change from game to game, but it is rare to change within a game as it can lead to dissatisfaction.

But because it is Foster, this person has long been notorious in the rivers and lakes, and the Cavaliers dare not show their dissatisfaction, because everyone knows that there is no way to offend this guy and be rectified.

On the other hand, after Sibodeau noticed this, he had Artest called back from the technical table.

The knife has already been revealed, there is no need to really kill, as long as the threat is given, even if it is put away, the effect will always be there.

And the impact of this change continues, and after the offense and defense switch back to the defensive end, the defensive intensity on the Bulls' side starts to come up.

It sounds a little strange because theoretically the penalty scale should be tightened and the defensive intensity should be reduced, but on top of that, the Bulls players are aware of another point, which is that the bias is no longer there, which will take a lot of worry out of them.

James broke through and met Adams who couldn't get in, stopped the ball and turned back to Irving outside, Irving grabbed the shot against Dravendova's defense, and the rebound was protected by Adams.

The Bulls played a fast break, and it was Xu Yong, who received a long pass from Adams' quarterback, broke through to the frontcourt three-point line to shake off Jefferson, and smashed the ball into the basket with a gliding split.

This time his movements looked very light.

After landing, Xu Yong just adjusted his breath, and then began to walk back.

The change in the scale of punishment also made his whole person relaxed, as if he had new strength in his body.

96 to 87.

After Xu Yong completed this fast break and scored the 14th point of the fourth quarter, the Bulls stretched the gap to 9 points.

There's one more round of defensive counter-attack, and the Bulls are going to stretch the margin to double digits.

If they lose this game, they will fall behind the Bulls 0-3 in a big score, and they will be the same as the national football team, leaving only the theoretical possibility of qualifying.

They had one foot on the cliff.

At the critical moment, Irving showed his big heart ability, he ignored James's ball, directly singled out Dellavedova on the outside, and shook off the three-point shot.

The scene instantly erupted in cheers from the Cavaliers fans, and Irving's ball was a real fairy ball, which forcibly pulled the Cavaliers back from the edge of the cliff and continued his life.

It's just that their cheers didn't last long, because after Xu Yong relaxed in the front court, after a feint of falling step breakthrough forced Jefferson back, he directly pulled up the outside line and returned a three-point answerball!

What is that basin of cold water that falls from the sky, instantly making people cold from head to toe.

Lou opened his mouth wide in disbelief when he saw the ball on the sidelines.

Jefferson's expression was a little helpless at this time, because Xu Yong basically hit every ball in front of him, and he suddenly came to a three-pointer, which he didn't expect at all.

Owen went back and wanted to make another one, but this time Ravendova defended it well and his shot didn't hit.

The ball was a long rebound, and it was picked up by Xu Yong after jumping, and then, he turned around and played a fast break again.

Everyone at the scene felt a flash of lightning pass in front of their eyes, and when they opened their eyes again, Xu Yong had already reached the front court and scored a gliding basket.

Then, at this moment, Xu Yong's score tonight was given on the LED screen at the scene.

After scoring his 19th point in the fourth quarter, his personal score has come to 61 points!

When that data was typed out, the scene was agitated.

58,42 points, and now 61 points, Xu Yong's fight is simply outrageous, and it's outrageous, outrageous!

No, more than 61 points, because there are still a full 5 minutes left until the end of the game!

At this time, some fans began to instinctively have an idea in their hearts: The next time Xu Yong said, is it tonight?

However, it was less than half a month apart!

Although Kobe Bryant also had the experience of not playing in the fourth quarter of 62 points in the third quarter, and then scoring 81 points later, there was a month in between, and it was the regular season, and the strength and intensity of the opponent were not at all the same as the East Finals in front of him.

If what Kobe Bryant did back then was shocking, then Xu Yong did it in only two words to describe: miracle!

The game continued, and after the change in the scale of the blowing penalty and Xu Yong's sudden state, the morale of the Cavaliers had plummeted to the bottom, and the point difference was widened little by little.

With one minute left before the end of the game, the margin on the court was already 13 points.

At this time, Xu Yong's score had come to 69 points.

When Lu saw this, he quickly replaced the main force.

It's clear that no one wants to be a backdrop, and it's such a shining gold backdrop.

But this time, Xu Yong didn't end up right away.

He stayed on the court and fired another three-pointer from the outside against Shampert, who came off the bench.

"Huh!"

When the crisp sound of entering the network came out through the loudspeaker, the Quickloan Arena instantly fell into a boil.

Xu Yong scored his 30th point in this quarter, won the second single quarter 30+ in his career, and at the same time, broke the record of 69 points in a single playoff game he had just set a week ago and increased to 72 points!

The small probability that Jokic said it happened eventually.

At this time, Cleveland Center seemed to have become the home of the Bulls because of Xu Yong's crazy performance.

Xu Yong, with his crazy performance, set up a divine residence for himself in [Luoyang]!
