Chapter 279: Get off to a good start and fight against the Bulls for the second time!
When Wang Yan came on the court, he began to change his playing style. If in the first quarter, Wang Yan was a scoring maniac, then in the second quarter, Wang Yan was a passer.
He constantly delivers shots to his teammates inside or outside! !
With the help of Wang Yan, players like Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler and TT in the interior all got a lot of scoring opportunities.
In addition, the Knicks' star player Carmelo Anthony has been unable to find his shooting form, which has led to a wider gap between the two teams! !
At the end of the second quarter, the Cavaliers were already leading the Knicks by 27 points.
In the stands of Madison Square Garden, many Knicks fans have begun to leave one after another.
So much so that by the start of the third quarter, the originally packed stands were now sparsely populated.
When the Knicks lost the support of their fans, the mentality of the team basically collapsed.
In the end, after four quarters of fierce competition, the score between the two teams was fixed at 119:87.
The Cavaliers beat their opponents by 32 points.
The team successfully got off to a good start in the new season, and in this game, the player in the best condition was naturally Wang Yan, who scored 30 points, 48 assists and 13 rebounds in 17 minutes.
Wang Yan's explosive performance declared that he will continue to dominate the NBA league.
As for the scoring of other Cavaliers players, Kyrie Irving scored 18 points and 11 assists, and Jimmy Butler scored 21 points and 4 steals.
The highest scoring player for the Knicks was naturally Carmelo Anthony, who scored 28 points and 7 rebounds in the game.
This is basically a normal performance from Carmelo Anthony, but unfortunately, if the Knicks want to beat the defending champions at home, Carmelo Anthony, as the team's top scorer, needs to perform better.
……
After the game, Knicks head coach Fisher also talked about his views on Wang Yan in an interview with ESPN reporter.
"He's like a scoring monster. Our two inside players, Stoudemire and Aldridge, guarded Wang Yan almost the entire time during the game, but he still scored nearly 50 points!"
"No one! In the current NBA league, there is no team that can stop Wang Yan from scoring. If nothing unexpected happens, this season's NBA championship will still belong to Wang Yan!"
There is no doubt that this is absolutely what Fisher really thinks.
After finishing the first round of the regular season game with the Knicks, the Cavaliers quickly took a flight to Cleveland that night. In the next game, the Cavaliers will go to the Windy City to challenge the Bulls.
The Chicago Bulls have also won the first round of the game. In the Bulls' lineup, the biggest star is naturally the 2008 No. pick Derrick Rose.
In addition, the Bulls also have Pau Gasol in the interior.
This will be a difficult game for the Cavaliers.
The Bulls are clearly stronger than the Knicks.
In a blink of an eye, the time came to July 11th.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Chicago Bulls home court - United Center.
The war officially started.
In this game, more than 20,000 fans poured into the stadium. Chicago fans were looking forward to their team defeating the invincible Cavaliers in this stadium.
You know, the current Cavaliers have won three consecutive championships, which makes other teams in the entire NBA league regard them as their biggest enemy.
The same was true for the Bulls fans. In the Tianchao Sports studio, commentator Yu Jia also began to announce the starting lineups of the two teams.
"The Cavaliers sent out their starting five tonight and did not make any changes compared to the last game against the Knicks. On the Bulls side, Coach Thibodeau's starting lineup is as follows:"
"No. 1 Mike Dunleavy, No. 2 Derrick Rose, No. 3 Kirk Hinrich, No. 4 Pau Gasol, No. 5 Joakim Noah!"
"This is basically the strongest lineup of the Chicago Bulls right now!"
"It looks like Coach Thibodeau wants to win this game tonight!"
soon.
The starting players of both teams are already standing on the playing field.
Wang Yan and Pau Gasol stood around the referee, ready to fight for the ball at any time!
The moment the referee threw the basketball into the air, the battle officially began.
Wang Yan relied on his unstoppable jumping ability and outstanding physical fitness to forcibly snatch the basketball from Pau Gasol's hands!
In the Tianchao studio, commentator Yu Jia quickly said, "No surprise! Wang Yan got the ball again! The Cavaliers got a chance to attack!"
In the stands of the United Center, more than 20,000 Bulls fans were shouting defense slogans in unison.
After Wang Yan took the basketball, he did not choose to take the initiative to attack, but passed the basketball in his hand to Irving.
At this time, the Bulls' outside player Mike Dunleavy also arrived immediately!
In addition, Derrick Rose is also moving closer to Irving.
Seeing that he was about to be double-teamed, at this moment, Kyrie Irving almost decisively chose to pass the ball!
In an instant, the basketball fell into Jimmy Butler's hands.
The latter shot decisively from outside the three-point line! !
The basketball drew a perfect arc in the air and flew quickly towards the basket.
But unfortunately, Jimmy Butler's shot did not fall accurately into the basket, but bounced out of the basket...
Fortunately, Wang Yan had already taken off into the air at this time!
Although there were two Bulls inside players, Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah, competing for rebounds around him!
But in terms of absolute strength and jumping ability, Wang Yan still has a huge advantage over these two players.
Wang Yan grabbed the basketball firmly in the air with both hands!
Without any surprise, Wang Yan grabbed the rebound.
When Joakim Noah and Pau Gasol were about to land, Wang Yan immediately took off into the air.
He held the basketball tightly with both hands and completed a slam dunk!
buzzing.
The sound of a huge dunk once again echoed throughout the United Center.
This is Wang Yan. From the first minute of the game, he began to show his unstoppable dunking ability!
When Wang Yan completed the slam dunk, the broadcast camera immediately found the Bulls head coach Thibodeau on the sidelines.
It can be seen that the latter's face is filled with traces of fear and dread.
At the same time, the cheers from the stands of the United Center came to an abrupt end!
The pressure came to every Bulls player at this moment! !
After the ball was exchanged, the basketball came to Derrick Rose again. As the son of the wind in Chicago, Rose needed to stand up and score.
