Chapter 331: Unveiling the Christmas War, a Good Start!

On December 25, the opening game of the NBA's 11-12 regular season, which is also the annual Christmas War, finally began.

Among them, the United Center in Chicago is one of the battlefields of this year's NBA opener.

With the Celtics' starting five Tigers, and the Bulls' Evans, Curry, Milicic, Ibaka, and Doon on the court, the big battle is on the verge of breaking out.

In the jumping stage, although Milicic did not practice hard in the summer, and now he has become a piece of walking pork belly, but it is still not a big problem to eat the old book with talent alone.

The Bulls relied on Milicic to get the ball back to the backcourt and get the first attack.

Curry dribbled across half court and handed the ball to Doane at the top of the arc.

The Celtics didn't get on the outside, or Pierce's plan to defend Doane alone, and of course Garnett was on the inside.

In order to reduce Doon's offensive pressure, the Bulls did not let Ibaka go up as a cover, but let Evans, who was at a 45-degree angle on the wing, run to Doon's side and play a cross cover with Doon.

Doon hands the ball to Evans, who takes the ball and swoops it straight to the basket.

In other teams, Evans used explosiveness to directly force the basket, and the score in this round was eight or nine.

However, tonight's opponent was the Celtics, and as Garnett stepped forward, Evans could only stop early and play a breakthrough point instead.

With limited passing vision, Evans couldn't find the right opportunity to pass the ball to Ibaka in the open basket.

Considering that Ray Allen was in pursuit and the rest of the Celtics shrank to the basket, Evans looked back at the moon and passed the ball to Curry, who ran to a 45-degree angle on the left.

Curry didn't hesitate after getting the ball, and immediately made a one-off three-point shot without waiting for Rondo to fly.

Curry's three-point shooting was already accurate, but now it's another open opportunity, plus he's been practicing for so long in the summer, and he's in excellent shape.

Brush –

Three-pointer scored!

"Curry, Curry, Curry!"

Some of the home fans also began chanting Curry's name.

Curry played for the Bulls for two years, and many Chicago fans still have a good impression of this baby-faced three-point shooter.

It's just that most of the fans at the scene were impressed by Doon during the four consecutive championships.

Watching Doon play and cheering for Doon is what they came to the United Center for.

Then again, Celtic played well tonight as well.

In the second year of the reorganization of the senior triumvirate, the cooperation between the main forces of the Celtics is still quite tacit.

Rondo forced Curry with the ball, then burst to the basket to attract the bag and feed Garnett a pie.

In the Bulls' offensive round, Doane did not rush to attack and continued to play Curry and Evans first.

Doon stands on the perimeter, and with Curry as a two-shooter, he can create a lot of room for Evans to break through.

Evans' breakthrough can also attract a certain amount of defense, and cooperate with two corner interior players to better cut into the basket to score.

Or split the ball so that the duo of Doon and Curry can shoot three-pointers with more confidence.

Because Curry has the ability to play off the ball, plus two years of magic ball, the Bulls let Evans control the ball.

Evans also knows that he has the ball and can find an opportunity to score at any time, so he is not in a hurry to score this piece.

Soon, Evans passed the ball out again and into Doon's hands.

Doon drew Rondo's help and immediately passed the ball to Curry.

Curry once again caught the ball and shot, felt good, scored twice, and hit a three-pointer with a steady shot.

I saw that Curry, who was triumphant at this time, shook his shoulders.

6 points in 1 minute, this scoring efficiency, 48 minutes in the game, so what?

Seeing that Curry was feeling hot, the Bulls were also passing the ball to Curry vigorously, asking him to show more and have more fun.

However, Rondo is worthy of Rondo's guidance, the ball quotient is very high, and he knows the starting lineup of the Bulls, and the worst defense is Curry.

Even if Evans and Curry switch defenses, Evans goes to lead Rondo and asks Curry to chase Ray Allen, Rondo will give the ball to Ray Allen and let Ray Allen teach Curry a lesson with a three-point shot.

Ray Allen was originally the league's No. 1 sharpshooter, and his off-ball ability was the best in the NBA.

Curry's height is much worse than Ray Allen, and his arm span is even more crippled in the NBA, where long hands and feet are everywhere.

As Ray Allen jumped high after receiving the ball, Curry tried his best to block it, but was still hit by a three-pointer by Ray Allen.

Even because he was too defense, he high-fived Ray Allen in the air.

Ray Allen fell to the ground, the whistle blew, 3+1!

Garnett noticed that Ray Allen responded with a three-pointer, at which point he was fouled and fell to the ground, and immediately ran to Ray Allen, pulled Ray Allen up, and slapped him on the ass.

And Curry watched Ray Allen stand on the free throw line, and he could only come to the three-point line to bite his teeth.

It's cool to abuse vegetables for a while, and it's always cool to abuse vegetables.

The Celtics focused on naming Curry, and Ray Allen also turned into a teacher at every opportunity, using all his might to teach Curry, an elementary student, a lesson.

To put it aside, Ray Allen isn't the NBA's most talented shooter, but he's definitely the hardest trained shooter.

Ray Allen's most perverted training method is to sit on the ground and get up, retreat to the three-point line to catch the ball and shoot.

With hard work day after day, Ray Allen is like a shooting machine, and every shot feels like a template carved out.

Especially in the two bottom corners, even if Ray Allen receives the ball and retreats to the bottom corner without looking at the floor, and then closes his eyes to shoot, he will not step on the line, and he can still shoot the ball into the basket steadily.

For Curry at this stage, there is no doubt that it is - can you stop this ball after 20 years of hard work?

In order to avoid Curry's heartbreak, Scott Skeles replaced Curry early and let Bradley come up to limit Rondo's breakthrough and passing.

Because Bradley's three-point shooting is not accurate, he is coming up to be a blue-collar worker, and Doon and Evans have more offense.

Of course, because he is ready to win the championship this season, Doon doesn't care about the statistics, but cares more about cultivating the rookies with the help of the regular season.

So, after Doon got the ball, he went to the basket more often, and by attracting the defense, he drove other teammates to let them run tactically, gave them passes, and helped them play one simple ball after another.

In the previous summer league, the Bulls' rookies played without a problem.

It's just that tonight is both the opening game and the Christmas battle, and it is inevitable that the mentality will be a little more excited, and then the performance will be rougher.

Fortunately, the problem is not very big, 97-103, under the leadership of Doane's 18 points, 12 rebounds, 16 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, the Bulls still have a 6-point advantage and have made a good start to the opening game.
