Chapter 85 Death Coil
The leading star selected by the Bulls is Wu Xun, which surprised many people.

In this game, the playing time of Butler and Wade, who have just come back, will inevitably be restricted. Coupled with Wu Xun's recent prosperity and the crazy pursuit of domestic fans, such an arrangement in the live broadcast room can be regarded as catering to the market. .

In China, the number of people following this game can be compared with the Rockets, Warriors and other teams.

Popovich called a timeout, constantly emphasizing defense and moving the ball. No team can beat the Spurs in this regard.

The speed with which the Spurs have rebuilt the team in just one offseason in the post-Duncan era is amazing.

Because their most important system has not changed. After the defensive system supported by Duncan collapsed, Leonard's excellent personal defense will fill everything.

And the Spurs have never been alone on offense.

For the Bulls, choosing a tactic has become very difficult. Wu Xun's recent defense has improved because of Curry's defensive ability, but he is a bit vulnerable in front of the Spurs.

The only breakthrough is to attack!

Wu Xun knows the familiar Chinese saying - offense is the best defense.

And his favorite Sun Tzu's art of war also has the art of war routine of using offense instead of defense.

Hoiberg finally decided on the tactics. On the defensive end, Butler's single defense and assisted defense are the core, and he will double-team Leonard when necessary.

After playing again, Wu Xun's offense is obviously much sharper. The core of the Spurs' perimeter defense lies in Leonard and Danny Green. Although Wu Xun is under pressure from Ginobili, he still believes in his ability.

McAway's speed made Ginobili somewhat reluctant, and Wu Xun broke through easily, but soon, Gasol rushed over from the inside, covering the sky in front of Wu Xun.

The scary thing is that after Gasol came out, the Spurs still kept Aldridge inside to ensure rebounds.

This is also Popovich's strategy today, guaranteeing rebounds.

Wu Xun turned around and jumped up, with his back to Gasol, using the professor's back-to-the-basket shooting skill package, the ball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and the ball fell into the basket.

In the live broadcast room, Wu Xun's fans shouted in amazement, this is Wu Xun, who always uses incredible defense to make very difficult shots.

Although the action is not picturesque, but that kind of embarrassing style has won him a large number of fans.

Now, as long as Wu Xun opens his Chinese social platform, people who trust him privately will keep trembling, so Wu Xun has no choice but to hand over the information to his agent for screening and processing.

Popovich crossed his hands, and Wu Xun's performance caused great waves in his heart.

The Spurs' home court was silent, and the styles of the Spurs and Wu Xun's Bulls at this time formed a sharp contrast.

The calmness of the Spurs and the embarrassment of Wu Xun, the style is very different, but it is enjoyable.

Danny Green missed the shot after his early three-pointer, and his good state cannot last forever. There will always be times when he is lazy and inaccurate, but this time, Butler launched the main attack.

Leonard interfered with his long arm, almost blocking Butler's passing lane.

This made Butler very uncomfortable, it was too difficult to break through, and Leonard's tight defense made him almost lose the ball many times.

Leonard, the league's best defender for two consecutive times, used his signature defensive death coil at this time to limit Butler.

In desperation, Butler made a mid-range shot after a cross-step feint.

This time, Leonard did not interfere with the trajectory of the ball, and the basketball was about to enter the basket.

Aldridge and Gasol had the best positions around the rim, ready to grab the rebound.

Mirotic is obviously at a disadvantage against these two old fritters.

Swish!
But this time, the ball went in.

Butler breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that the Bulls scored again, but he knew very well that such a bad ball is difficult to come a second time.

Therefore, this requires him to do better on the defensive end!
Butler is also one of the best defensive players in the league. At this time, Leonard also tried his best to defend.

The defensive contest between the two defenders is imminent.

After many passes, the ball reached Leonard's hands. This time, Leonard made a precise mid-range shot, also against Butler's defense.

The home court is boiling.

Leonard has brought too many surprises to the Spurs, and he has played at the MVP level this season.

In the previous Spurs with Duncan and a large number of veteran players, Leonard needed to take on more of the defensive tasks, and he did a very good job.

Relying on the death entanglement to perfectly restrict James to help the Spurs win the championship, this is the glory of Kawhi, and he also won the FMVP that year, breaking the record of the youngest finals MVP held by Duncan.

And this season, Leonard's energy is not only on the defensive end, but more importantly, he has also played a terrifying offensive performance this season.

In the Spurs, he has scored 30+ performances many times, and 20+ in a row is commonplace. In the past, Popovich, who emphasized team basketball, would have yelled at him, but now Leonard has done it inadvertently. All of this, team basketball is still running very smoothly.

But then, the scene became dramatic.

The ball controlled by Butler was directly intercepted by Leonard, and he rushed to the backcourt.

However, behind him, a black shadow drifted past, and Wu Xun used Ariza's stealing skills to rush over.

With a bang, Wu Xun took the basketball into his hands.

Wu Xun passed the basketball back to Butler before losing his balance.

At this time, Butler, who got rid of Leonard's defense, rushed towards the basket like a fish entering the ocean.

Aldridge tried to block the shot, but was dunked by Butler's arm directly facing him.

As strong as Aldridge, he didn't block Butler and was dunked by Butler.

Butler roared angrily, venting his joy, and was about to give Wu Xun a high-five to celebrate.

But what came into view at this time made Butler dumbfounded.

This guy Wu Xun was hugging Ginobili next to him and fell together. What's interesting is that Wu Xun didn't realize that Ginobili's Mediterranean Sea was facing him.

The damn steal skill, every time you use it, you will lose your balance, and if there are people around, you will subconsciously hug each other.

The scene was very embarrassing for a while, Butler scratched his head, Wade was silent, Leonard twitched the corners of his mouth rarely, as if he was smiling.

Then, he seemed to think of something, looked at Popovich, and quickly stopped smiling.

It seems that the scene where Duncan was called a foul because of his smirk is still vivid.
