Chapter 248
"Jeremy, how does it feel to play against Ross?" Zhang Yu looked at Jeremy Lin who came off the court and asked with a smile.

"Huh——" Jeremy Lin's breathing was a little short. He glanced back at Rose on the court and said with lingering fear, "He is terrible. I can hardly believe that he has only played in the NBA for three years!"

Zhang Yu smiled and said:

"How is it compared to Stephen?"

Jeremy Lin thought for a while, then shook his head and said:

"He and Stephen are completely two types of players. When guarding Stephen, I don't know whether he is going to shoot, pass or break through. I will be a little nervous, but I always feel that as long as I work harder, I can defend. He's gone... against Ross, I know he's likely to break through, and he will, but I'm still going to get passed by him, and it's going to be very frustrating... Oh, yes, Rossby Stephen The defense is much better."

Zhang Yu quietly listened to what Jeremy Lin said, and patted him on the shoulder:

"Very well, this is the first time you have played against a top point guard in an official game. It is a rare experience. After you go back, take a good look at this video. Your technical characteristics and Rose have some imagination. Speed, finishing at the basket and handling the ball in the pick-and-roll, although his speed is unmatched by you, and the threat of breakthrough is much greater than yours, but there are still many things worth learning."

"I get it, coach...but Rose wasn't even in the third team last season. Can he be considered a top point guard?" Jeremy Lin wondered.

Zhang Yu smiled slightly and looked at Rose who was holding the ball and making a breakthrough:
"He will be soon."

Under Zhang Yu's gaze, facing Tony Allen's defense, Rose first made a cross step, handed the ball from his crotch to his left hand, and quickly took a big step to the left front, causing Tony Allen to change his center of gravity, and then slammed on his left foot. In the process of stepping up, he made a large forward change of direction without slowing down, handed the ball to his right hand, and wanted to rush past Tony Allen on the left.

And Tony Allen is worthy of being a top defensive champion. In this case, he can still slide to the left in time, barely blocking Rose's breakthrough path, and behind him, Green has already stood in the defense position, and he is determined not to give Rose an easy time. Opportunity to rush into the Warriors' restricted area.

But after the change of direction, Rose immediately followed up with a large left turn, the speed also did not decrease at all, like a whirlwind, spinning into the inside line from the right of Tony Allen, completely getting rid of the pincer attack of Tony Allen and Green .

He rushed to the penalty area, Chandler had to come up to defend, unable to take into account Noah behind him, but Rose did not choose to pass the ball, but flew into the air with a jump, swung the basketball back with both hands, and flashed in the air Chandler's block, after he landed, dunked the basketball heavily into the basket!

At 91:87, the Bulls led by 4 points.

"My God! Rose tore through the Warriors' three strongest defenders and humiliated the Warriors' second-ranked defense in the league with a two-handed dunk!" Mike Breen shouted.

Cole exclaimed:
"Ross may be the most gorgeous player in the history of the NBA dunking with both hands. His body is so light that it is not human, and his movements are very stretched. Mike, you know, I really want to see his performance in the slam dunk contest now!"

"Rose! Rose!"

"Rose, you are Jordan in position 1!"

"MVP! MVP!"

The United Center was also excited because of Rose's wonderful goal. The fans stood up one after another, raised their hands high, and gave the warmest cheers to the new Chicago king.

On the contrary, it was Rose himself, who quickly retreated to the backcourt after landing, his expression didn't change much, as if he didn't break through the Warriors' defense by himself just now, but just completed a simple and unpretentious commoner in training. Layup.

Mike Brin once again exclaimed:
"Gentlemen, don't be fooled by the calm appearance of this rose, the sharpest thorns lie beneath its gorgeous petals!"

The morale of the Warriors was also hit. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't know what to say. They seemed to be shocked by Rose's heavy dunk.

Tony Allen sensed something was wrong with the atmosphere, and shouted loudly:
"It's our turn, cheer up, we're going to fight back!"

Only then did the others come to their senses, Chandler came to the bottom line and sent the ball to Curry.

Curry dribbled the ball forward and looked to the sidelines. Zhang Yu patted the top of his head, and Curry turned his gaze straight ahead.

After he came to the frontcourt, instead of Rose, who was facing up in singles, he beckoned for a cover, and Chandler immediately brought it up.

With the help of his cover, Curry temporarily got rid of Rose's defense. Noah, like before, stepped forward to make a big delay, blocking Curry's breakthrough space at the first time, and then returned to his position, wanting Rose to change back .

But at the moment when Noah turned around and chased Chandler, and Rose squeezed through the screen and rushed towards Curry, Curry seized the fleeting gap and raised his hand to throw a three-pointer!

Snapped!
When he made the shot, Rose panicked, pounced on Kui Zuo, and raised his hand to interfere with his shooting, but Curry shot too fast, Rose did not interfere successfully, but hit Curry's arm hard, sending out A crisp sound hit Curry at the same time, causing him to stagger a few steps to one side after landing.

"Di-"

The referee whistled and raised his right hand at the same time to indicate that the ball was valid, but Curry didn't pay attention to everything that happened around him, just staring at the basketball gliding in the air.

brush!
The crisp sound of brushing the net sounded, and the basketball went into the net hollow, 3+1!

The United Center arena, which was still raging against Yingtian just now, fell silent in an instant. The Bulls fans watched Curry dance happily on the court, gritted their teeth with anger, but had nowhere to vent. It's too obvious, and the referee's whistle is no problem.

After Curry stood on the free throw line, the audience booed him all over the place to interfere with his free throw, but Curry ignored it, lowered his head, measured the free throw line with his left foot, patted the ball casually, and scored easily. .

91: 91.

"Curry helped the Warriors tie the score in one round. This is the most powerful counterattack to Rose's goal!" Mike Breen said.

Cole shook his head:
"I must admit that Curry is the most incredible shooter I have ever seen, but I still don't agree with his shot selection. This three-point shot is a bit sloppy. What the Warriors want now is the success rate. Such a choice is still too risky. .”

Just as Cole was speaking, the Bulls completed the offense. With the help of Noah's screen, Rose dribbled the ball to the mid-range position and made a stop jumper.

The Warriors mainly defended him against breakthroughs and took the initiative to give him some shooting space. This time he took advantage of the space and scored calmly.

91: 93.

On the sidelines, Thibodeau's frowning brows gradually relaxed. Rose's fiery state made him very relieved of the Bulls' offense.

Looking back, Curry also called a screen and played a pick-and-roll. Because Curry's 3+1 deterrence just now was too powerful, the Bulls chose to switch defenses this time. Rose was brought inside by Chandler, leaving Noah in the arc The top faces Curry.

Facing Noah's defense, Curry slowly dribbled the ball, and suddenly pulled up to shoot a three-pointer. Noah couldn't interfere and could only watch the basketball fly over his head.

Bang!

Under the watchful eyes of nearly 2 people in the arena, the basketball hit the front of the rim, bounced out, and the rim immediately scrambled.

Mike Breen narrowed his eyes, staring at the Bulls' penalty area, and said in a hurry:
"Curry missed a three-pointer - Chandler grabbed the offensive rebound in the crowd and made a tip-up! 93:93, the two teams tied again, with 4 minutes and 23 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the game was getting more and more anxious Already!"

Cole said:

"Curry's three-point shot is very smart. He knows that Noah was transferred to the outside. The Warriors have an advantage inside. The shot is very bold. In the end, Chandler also grabbed the offensive rebound and scored. This is the same as Curry. The decisiveness here is inseparable."

On the sidelines, Thibodeau frowned again. He has a very keen sense of smell in defense, and he can also see the problems that Cole can see.

Of course he knew that if Noah expanded to defend Curry, the Bulls would suffer a lot in the interior, but just now Noah's strategy of delaying and returning was severely punished by Curry. He didn't want to give Curry even the slightest space.

Just when Thibodeau was hesitating, the Bulls completed the offense. Rose faced Tony Allen, slowly dribbled the ball at the top of the arc, shot a cold arrow, and hit a three-pointer.

93: 96.

This 3-point advantage made Thibodeau make a decision. He wants to pursue the victory and kill the game!
He took two quick steps and shouted to Noah who was retreating:

"Jokin, put pressure on the ball handler!"

Noah nodded to understand, and then focused on defense.

The Warriors' offense still played Curry and Chandler's pick-and-roll. This time, Noah chose to step forward to delay Curry as much as possible, emptied Chandler appropriately, and returned to his position after Rose bypassed the screen.

In response to this situation, Curry naturally gave the ball to Chandler who was running down immediately, but the defensive tactics that the Bulls dared to implement have been practiced countless times. When Noah delayed Curry, Gibson and Korver fell Immediately shrink the basket, cooperate with the protective frame, and block Chandler's route.

Chandler, who lacked the ability to attack independently, was blocked outside the penalty area and could only pass the ball to Green who was emptied at 45 degrees. Green hesitated after receiving the ball, but no one turned to him, and the Bulls completely emptied He, Green could only make some adjustments and hit a three-pointer.

Bang!

Facts have proved that hesitant shots usually do not have good results. Green smashed an iron, the rebound was recovered to the basket by Noah, and the Bulls took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Rose started the first time, turned around to catch Noah's pass, and rode away, first throwing off Curry who was chasing him, and then entangled with Tony Allen to the basket, a delicate little lever in the air Dodged Tony Allen's interference and scored on the basketball.

93: 98.

"The Bulls led the Warriors by 3 points with 5 minutes left, and they took the initiative in this game!" Mike Breen said loudly.

"Di-"

On the sidelines, Zhang Yu called a timeout as soon as the Bulls scored.
