The Basketball Court Swordsman

"In the first half of the game, the two sides played very fiercely. The Bulls used their firm defense to contain the Pacers' offense. But I have to say that Derrick Rose's performance was a bit disappointing."

During the intermission, although the Pacers cheerleaders had just finished their performance. But at the scene, most people didn't miss the girls Miaoman's figure, but were looking back at the halftime game that had just ended.

Therefore, although the second half of the game has not yet started, Reggie Miller and Chris Webber can't wait to chat.

"I think it's not just you, Reggie. Everyone is eager to see Rose rebirth in the Bankers Life Arena, but everyone is disappointed. I hope that in the second half of the game, Derrick Rose can adjust. I believe that the Rose of Windy City will not wither so easily."

Yes, if Rose could play a little bit in the first half, the Bulls might not be behind now.

It's not just the fans who think this way, but also Derrick Rose himself.

"In the second half of the game, we need to maintain this momentum! Drag them into the mud and make them hurt! Everyone thinks that the defending champions are invincible, and we have to prove that they are no different from mortals!"

Thibodeau was boosting the morale of the players in the locker room, but Rose couldn't hear a word.

In the first half of the game, he shot 6 times and only hit 1 goal. Although his teammates have no complaints against him, Rose himself can't see his performance a bit.

He once frightened all the fans in this arena, but now he is like a funny clown.

His teammates have expectations of him, and fans have expectations of him. But after three games, he has broken people's expectations again and again.

Rose doesn't want this, he is the Rose of Windy City, he wants to be as strong as his team!

He is trying to tell himself that he can't be afraid of breakthroughs and physical confrontation. He must be tough, he must play harder! Use the breakthrough that once possessed bullet-like penetration to help the team and also help yourself out of the haze!

"The time is almost up, let's all go on the court! Remember, no matter what, we can't give up ourselves! If we give up ourselves, the enemy can easily knock us down! Understand!?" Xibodu looked at Table, finished the last sentence during the intermission.

"Understood!" This time, Derek Rose was the loudest answer of all.

On the other hand, Henson did not make too many tactical changes during the intermission. Just before the players came out, Henson stopped Antetokounmpo and told him softly.

"Get ready, you may be on the stage in the second half."

It seems that the head coaches of the two teams are not satisfied with the current anxious situation.

In the second half, Henson did not let Antetokounmpo go on the court. Because Henson hasn't considered clearly where he wants to play in this game.

Although Antetokounmpo can play five positions, but that is in terms of low-level leagues. To say this in the NBA, the premise is that Antetokounmpo can grow to Henson's expectations.

Obviously, Antetokounmpo does not yet have the ability to play full five positions. With his current shooting ability, playing the third position will be very disadvantaged. Playing in the 4th position... He looked at Boozer's arms that were thicker than Antetokounmpo's legs, and Henson was a little worried.

As Henson struggled, Derrick Rose scored the first goal of the second half for the Bulls. Moreover, in a breakthrough way!

"Nice layup, do you see how wonderful his breakthrough was just now!? Derek Rose, he seems to be back again!"

Reggie Miller's praise of Rose is no exaggeration, and Paul still defended well in the attack just now. However, Paul was caught off guard by the speed at which Rose suddenly "ejected" through the cover!

After the breakthrough, the first thing the Pacers players thought about was not to cover up, but to cut off Rose's passing route. Rose made 8 turnovers in the last game, most of which came from this. What Henson took advantage of was that Rose didn't dare to really get into this mentality.

However, in the face of David West who made up the defense, Rose did not fear this time and took off suddenly in the three-second zone and completed a layup against West!

Break through the line of defense like a bullet. Then burst himself and score for the team. This attack is a typical "Ross" attack!

"This guy..." Henson had a bad hunch in his heart. It is difficult to go from 0 to 1, but it is very easy to go from 1 to 2, from 2 to 3.

Once Rose takes the first step, he will definitely go on unswervingly!

Sure enough, after more than 20 seconds, Rose scored again! And this time, scoring is more difficult than before!

I saw Rose made a few very confusing crotch changes after receiving the ball from the bottom corner, and suddenly accelerated when Paul's center of gravity was shaken!

Without a screen, Rose Shengsheng used his fake moves and speed to break through Paul, the best defensive point guard in the league!

After breaking through the bottom line to the basket, Al Horford had already arrived. But Rose was still not afraid. He jumped from behind the rebound and avoided Horford's block with a folding lever in the air. Only after the body glides on the other side, did he get to the basket!

His stagnation, his gliding, his folding in the air, this set of actions undoubtedly does not remind people of the omnipotent Bull No. 1 back then!

In an instant, the Pacers' lead was only 1 point left! And Rose's two consecutive goals also made the Bulls defense stronger than before! As if the momentum on the court was reversed in an instant!

Sure enough, never underestimate any stubborn heart!

"A beautiful drawbar layup. In fact, the Pacers have done a very timely defense and assisting defense. But Rose used his own personal ability to overcome the danger and successfully scored. Now there is only one point difference between the two sides. Coach Henson stood up. He seemed to be discussing something with Frank Vogel."

Drake Rose resolutely opened his arms to start the defense, and he used his own actions to get the Bulls back on track.

Bulls meat grinder-like defense coupled with Rose's burst breakthrough? Well, maybe the Bulls can really upset the defending champion! ?

In the subsequent attacks, the Pacers were still not smooth. Thibodeau knows the Pacers too well, which is beneficial to his defensive arrangement.

Although Rose didn't score any more goals, because he was able to score independently, Rose's breakthrough points became more efficient.

Five minutes after playing in the third quarter, the Pacers still led the Bulls by one point. But this 1 point gap is really precarious. In the past 5 minutes, the Bulls had many opportunities to overtake the score, but they could not grasp it. But this does not mean that they will always miss.

At this time, Henson called the referee to stop the game. In an instant, all cameras on the scene were aimed at Rose. On the commentary stage, even the Pacers' support Reggie Miller had to admit the magic of Rose.

"He rose in the second half, and it turns out that as long as Rose can rise, the Bulls can still cause huge problems for the Pacers! Let's see how Coach Henson will deploy."

After calling to stop the game, Henson walked to Antetokounmpo, who was sitting at the end of the bench. Seeing Henson approaching, the Greek boy snapped up like a spring on his hips. In an instant, Henson had to look up at him.

"I told you to be prepared."

"Well, I'm ready, boss, I'm excited!"

"Bend down."

"what?"

"If you don't bend down, it's hard for me to talk to you."

"Oh...oh..."

On the sidelines, Antetokounmpo put his hands on his knees. Henson stood beside him, put his arm around Antetokounmpo's shoulder, and then his mouth was close to his ear.

The audience was in an uproar. The Pacers fans hadn't seen this rookie appear yet, so they were naturally looking forward to it!

"It looks like," Henson smiled in the commentary. "Coach Henson also prepared surprises for his old friend Thibodeau."

"After playing, I want you to play the fourth position. Don't be nervous. Although Boozer is physically stronger than you, his offensive performance today is really bad. All you have to do is try to contain him on the defensive end. Then, let's focus on Now, on the offensive end, break through him with the ball! Boozer is not as fast as you, and he never thought you would attack with the ball. Breaking through him, bravely attacking the basket, broke the Bulls defense for me! It's your task, your time has come, Yang Nis."

"Boss."

"anymore question?"

"Thank you for driving me this morning."

Henson smiled, and then led Antetokounmpo into the crowd, telling the others his thoughts.

Antetokounmpo removed his training uniform, revealing the big number 33 behind him. Originally, Antetokounmpo wanted to wear size 34, but because Ray Allen was size 34, he reduced the number by one.

But Ray Allen once joked that I will retire soon anyway, and the 34th will be yours sooner or later.

Finally, a few cameras moved away from Rose and shot on Antetokounmpo. The mysterious rookie was finally brought to the court by Henson.

After the timeout was over, Henson patted Antetokounmpo on the **** and let him walk onto the court.

Reggie Miller yelled excitedly, the game started to become more and more interesting.

"Audience friends, keep your eyes open! The Greek monster, ushered in his first appearance!" Miller's voice also conveyed this anticipation to the hearts of every fan.
