King of the Point Guard Era

Chapter 142 Great Victory over the Bulls
Lost by 12 points in the first half. For the Bulls who are currently number one in the league, if they are facing some playoffs or marginal teams in the playoffs when they are in good form, then these 20 points are not a big problem. However, the reality is that in the back-to-back situation, the main force scored more than 45 points in the first half and still fell behind by 57 points 12:[-]. The opponent was the top five teams in the league in terms of offensive power.

Thibodeau touched his double chin and looked at Rose. He was still regretting the last attack in the first half. The three points of the logo position.Open your eyes and the team will enter the second half with only a 7-point disadvantage.

"5 minutes, boys, I only give you 5 minutes in the second half. If you still can't turn the situation around at this time, then we will prepare for the next game earlier. Our goal is to be number one in the league. There are still three away games." Thibodeau's words stopped short, obviously he didn't want to spend too much energy on this game.

When Rose heard this sentence, he hesitated, hesitant to speak, obviously he didn't want to lose this game, but after thinking about it, he just sighed slightly, then sat down decisively, and quickly regaining strength.

At this time, Barkley no longer said that he firmly supports the Bulls. Of course, he will not change his words to support the Kings. This is his dignity as a TNT commentator.He had to keep his mouth shut again, expecting the Bulls to surprise him in the second half.

After returning from the second half, this Bulls still performed tough, not at all like a back-to-back team that fell behind by 12 points at halftime.With the first ball on the court, Rose returned to the field in the first half. He directly supported He Yixiang's body at the top of the arc and wanted to break through to the right. Then he turned back to the left near the free throw line and made a wonderful layup with his left hand.I have to say that Rose's ability to finish after a breakthrough is really strong. Both the left hand and the right hand can put the ball in. I am indeed inferior to him in this regard.

The king's offense here is running very smoothly. After several passes, Iguodala on the baseline has an open space and makes a three-pointer. Unfortunately, he hit the frame, but the ball flew very far, obviously a long rebound. , this rebound flew towards Casspi, and when Casspi received the basketball and was about to shoot a mid-range shot with joy, Ross had already appeared beside him, and while Casspi was not getting a firm footing, Cut off the ball directly from the bottom up.This action is not to mention the Kings fans in the stadium, even the Bulls fans who have never lost a game rarely see such a set of operations by Rose.

After cutting off the ball, Rose ended the attack with a layup, and the point difference was reduced to 8 points. At this time, it was only 5 minute past the 1 minutes agreed with Thibodeau, and there was still time. Rose He waved his fist, he really didn't want to lose in this battle between the alumni of the University of Memphis!Barkley, who was in the commentary booth, also had his eyes glowing at this time, as if he saw hope.

It's a pity that the Kings didn't get knocked out after receiving Rose's three-handed attack. They ran smoothly again. This time it was He Yixiang who ran out of the open space. After he passed the ball to Iguodala After the organization, he bypassed two pick-and-rolls and received the pass in the bottom corner. He Yixiang looked very calm when he saw Rose rushing towards him. Rose's height and bounce had no pressure on him who had already taken off. The ball was accurate. He got into the net again, and this was He Yixiang's seventh three-pointer in this game, and the point difference once again came to double digits.At this moment, Rose had an urge to practice his three-pointer well that he had never had before.

Rose's heart is still ferocious, but his body is telling him that he will soon be unable to hold on.Once again, he hit the inside line and got a chance for a layup. However, when he took off with the last kick, he felt that the cells of his entire arm were rejecting the completion of this layup. As a result, this layup that was close at hand was missed. Cousins ​​took off the rebound and passed it directly to He Yixiang. He Yixiang's physical strength is much richer than Rose, who has played nearly 30 minutes.Facing the empty basket, he dedicated a super lever back button.

"Beautiful, if this is a slam dunk contest, I think I will give at least 45 points." Smith praised this beautiful dunk excitedly, completely ignoring Barkley whose face was completely dark enough.

After this deduction, the Bulls not only failed to narrow the point difference in 5 minutes.Instead, the point difference was widened to 16 points.Thibodeau decisively replaced all the main players. This set of operations undoubtedly made Barkley, who was already very depressed, even more depressed: "This guy Thibodeau still wants to be the best coach this year? There are still games left." No. [-] in the league who gave up the game in one and a half quarters?" The angry Barkley vented all his anger on Thibodeau that the Bulls were about to lose, and that he was about to prove his position as the leader of the cult once again.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Barkley directly changed the topic, and talked with Smith about the current trend of the league and the upcoming playoffs. However, these things involuntarily touched the Bulls who are now the number one in the league. Of course, Barkley was embarrassed to continue boasting at this time, but Smith did not intend to let him go: "Charles, who do you think is the Eastern Conference champion? The current Bulls?"

As soon as he heard the name Bull, Barkley was instantly unhappy: "Bull, how is it possible, although he has the first record, but he is definitely not as strong as the Heat, absolutely." Barkley has now become a diehard fan of the Heat. The reason is simple. The Heat double-killed the Kings in the regular season this season.The Bulls fans breathed a sigh of relief, and the Heat fans began to feel anxious.

This game lost its suspense. The Kings beat the Bulls by 108 points 91:17 at home. This was the consequence of the two sides withdrawing all their main players at the end of the third quarter.Of course, the Kings themselves know that this is not the first in the league in full form, but they are still excited about it.After this victory, the Kings have successfully surpassed the Nuggets who traded Anthony to the Knicks after the All-Star break and came to fifth place in the West.

The fans are very excited, but it is a little difficult for them to overtake the Thunder. According to the NBA's game system, the number one in the small division must be among the top four in the division, so the Kings must surpass the current third in the small division if they want to gain home court advantage. Bulls, but the Mavericks are nearly three games ahead of the Kings.When there are less than twenty games left in the game, there is basically no hope.
