The Godfather of Basketball

Back from the timeout, the Cavaliers significantly strengthened their defense against Rose's personal offense.

But just as Tang Tian expected before, Rose is the core of the Bulls, whether it is personal offense or containment defense, he can open up the situation for the Bulls.

Rose scored down, Boozer and Deng scored up.

After the first three quarters, the Bulls led the Cavaliers 91-83.

Rose scored 26 points and 9 assists alone.

At home, Rose and his Bulls had their best performance since the series.

At the end of the third quarter, the reporters on the sidelines interviewed Tang Tian.

"Coach, the Cavaliers are in an unfavorable situation. Is there something wrong with the team?"

"No, there's no problem. My players are all playing well, but the Bulls are better at the front." Tang Tian didn't give the opponent a chance to boost their morale.

"This morning, some fans provoked Rose. Do you think the Bulls' performance tonight has something to do with that?"

"Is there such a thing? I don't know."

The reporter briefly explained what happened.

"That's not a good thing, but whatever it is, our focus is on the game, thank you."

After speaking, Tang Tian turned and walked back to the bench.

The thing about fans provoking Rose happened in the morning, and there were not many media reports, so he really didn't know.

But this also explains why the Bulls played so crazy in the first three quarters.

This is not the same as what happened to Foreman at the beginning. This is a positive provocation rather than a shady move. The effect must be to anger Rose and the Bulls.

If that's a Cavaliers fan, then it's a pig teammate.

"In every next round, I ask each of you to perform at your best. This will not be an easy game. We must go all out." Returning to the bench, Tang Tian turned to the players Said.

Back in the fourth quarter, both sides have a lineup with one main force and four substitutes.

The Cavaliers are led by James, Iverson, Stephenson, Anderson and Brown.

The Bulls led by Deng, Watson, Korver, Gibson and Asik.

Iverson took the ball to the frontcourt, Brown put up the pick-and-roll, he went to the basket and was double-teamed, and gave Anderson a three-pointer on the right.

Anderson made a three-pointer before Gibson made a save.

"Shua!"

The ball crashed into the net.

After entering the second round of the playoffs, Anderson changed from a starter to a substitute due to tactical needs, but his three-pointer feeling is still there.

But looking back, Korver also made a three-pointer after Gibson's pick-and-roll.

As Tang Tian said before, the Bulls are in hot form tonight, and this is by no means an easy game.

"More pressure, this is the Eastern Conference Finals!" Casey also shouted to remind the players at this time.

The Cavaliers' frontcourt pick-and-roll, Stephenson's breakthrough was blocked by Gibson, Brown squeezed Asik inside and struggled to grab the offensive rebound, and then made a shot that caused Gibson's thug foul.

One of two free throws, Asik received a defensive rebound.

Watson's breakthrough was interfered by Brown, and Anderson's chase missed a three-pointer.

Both sides are increasing their defensive intensity, and the two sides are in a bitter battle.

The game was deadlocked until three minutes before the end, and the Bulls still maintained a 9-point lead with 113 to 104.

The emotions of the audience were getting higher and higher, and some fans even reached out to pray and point to the sky, thanking the God of Basketball for his blessing.

They will finally be able to see victory tonight.

"We will never give up. Some of you must stand up now, hit the basket more, have a higher defensive intensity, play this game as the last game, win or go home! We must do our best! "

During the timeout, Tang Tian was still shouting loudly at the players.

On paper and under normal circumstances, the Cavaliers are better than the Bulls.

But the game is not about fighting these things, otherwise the so-called upset would not exist.

Under the influence of various comprehensive factors, the Bulls' performance tonight is 120%, which is an extraordinary performance.

At this time, the game will become very difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, as the head coach, he must instill self-confidence in the players.

This is also the link that this Cavaliers must go through to grow.

"Let me see what the limits of you guys are!"

Before going on the field, Tang Tian slammed the tactical board onto the bench after shouting, and then stretched out his hand.

"The Cavaliers!"

"come on!"

The team members were given a shot of chicken blood, and their tired faces glowed with high fighting spirit again.

Don't say that chicken soup coaches are useless, some occasions really depend on this.

Back from the timeout, the Cavaliers have the ball.

Paul dribbles downfield, finds James on a pick-and-roll, drives to the rim, an outpass fake out of Boozer, and a return pass around Noah's body.

Knowing that Paul passed first, Yao Ming already had a tacit understanding. After bending over to pick up the ball, he pushed up against Noah. His shot scored and caused a foul by Noah's thug.

A key 2+1!

"Tomato!"

After Yao Ming scored a goal, he waved his arms excitedly.

Yao Ming made a steady hit with an additional penalty, and the Cavaliers chased the point difference to 6 points.

"Come on! Bulls!"

The fans at the scene felt the pressure, and led by the DJ, they began to cheer loudly for the home team.

As long as they stick to the last two and a half minutes, the victory will belong to them!

At this time, Rose came to the frontcourt and began to press time. Now they must maintain the success rate as much as possible.

Noah pulled directly to the three-point line pick-and-roll.

Rose hit the nail on the head, suddenly accelerated and rushed to the basket, throwing away Paul and Yao Ming in an instant.

He reached the basket at a flying speed, and after he jumped up, he was a powerful slam dunk.

"Snapped!"

At the moment of his dunk, James rushed from the baseline and slapped the ball in his hand diagonally!

Artest catches the ball flying out of bounds.

The referee didn't blow his whistle!

Paul stretched out his hand as he ran toward the halfway line.

Artest's long pass, Paul hit the frontcourt is a quick layup.

The cheers at the scene stopped abruptly.

Only 4 points left in the blink of an eye.

Rose was a little anxious. When he broke through, he didn't notice Artest, who was changing defenses. The two knocked over and fell to the ground together.

Because the ball had been released before contact, the referee did not call a foul on either side.

James got the ball quickly with quick eyesight, turned around and went forward for a fast break.

The Bulls retreated in time this time, and Deng pressed James firmly.

Deng's size is very close to that of James, and it is difficult for James to have a comfortable shot.

At this moment, he noticed Paul who ran to the three-point line, and he shook his hand directly.

Paul caught the ball and shot a chasing three-pointer directly.

At this moment, Bogans came from the backcourt and blocked the shot.

"Snapped!"

Paul made a shot before Bogans could defend himself, and Bogans slapped Paul's hand, knocking Paul to the ground along the way.

"boom!"

After the ball was interfered, the shot was missed, but after wiping the backboard, it still went into the basket!

This is a 3+1!

118 to 119!

Only 1 point left!

Bogans put his head in his hands, looking annoyed.

Paul was pulled up by Green who drove over, and when he got up, he took off his braces and roared vigorously.

The Big Three stood up one after another.

They did that bowl of chicken soup when Tang Tian paused together!
