Chapter 283: Three consecutive wins in the regular season! Unstoppable!
Intermission.

In the home team's locker room.

Bulls head coach Thibodeau tried his best to suppress his anger and said to everyone calmly: "I'll say it again!"

"I am very dissatisfied with your performance in the first half!"

"No player was able to score under the interference of the Cavaliers!"

“This is not a normal thing!”

After saying this, Thibodeau glanced at the expressions on the faces of the Bulls players in the locker room.

then.

He said even more angrily: "Cheer up!"

"We're going to fight for the game!"

"We have to play for the fans. Our opponent is really strong. They have won the NBA championship for three consecutive seasons!"

"But! We're not bad either!"

"Derrick! You have only one mission in the second half, and that is to score! Show your scoring talent as much as possible!"

In the opinion of the Bulls head coach, if the Bulls want to go head-to-head with the Cavaliers at the moment, perhaps they can only fully rely on Rose's personal ability.

……

Fifteen minutes later, the second half of the game officially kicked off! !

At the beginning of the third quarter, Derrick Rose was very active. He personally carried the basketball to the frontcourt and was on the left side of the three-point line.

Derrick Rose stopped attacking.

He dribbled the ball with his left hand and observed the position of his teammates with his right hand. In a moment, Derrick Rose suddenly made a shooting motion.

This made it difficult for guard Jimmy Butler to defend him.

In the blink of an eye, the basketball flew into the basket.

The Bulls' star player successfully withstood the pressure at this moment!

Three point hit!

However, the Bulls fans in the stands of the United Center did not get too excited because they knew very well that the most important thing was the team's defense.

If the Bulls players cannot stop the Cavaliers from scoring in the next twenty-four seconds, then this shot will be meaningless.

When Kyrie Irving brought the basketball to the frontcourt, head coach Thibodeau's expression on the Bulls' bench was also full of panic.

"Focus! I emphasize again! You must pay attention to Wang Yan's position!"

The voice just fell.

Kyrie Irving took action.

Perhaps because the Bulls players were too afraid of Wang Yan during this defense, in addition to the two inside players Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah, Derrick Rose also moved to the inside.

This makes the Bulls' entire perimeter defense lack manpower!

This also gave Irving an opportunity invisibly.

The latter resolutely made a shooting motion, and in an instant, the basketball flew heavily into the basket! !
Swish!
Three point hit!

This will undoubtedly cause the opponent to lose their mentality.

Even after Kyrie Irving made this shot, more and more fans began to slowly leave the stadium.

Obviously.

Quite a number of Bulls fans have completely lost confidence in the team.

Courtside.

Bulls head coach Thibodeau also sat down in his chair helplessly, constantly complaining to his assistant coach about the team's defensive problems.

A few minutes later, the mentality of the Bulls players completely collapsed, and the score difference between the two teams even reached 30 points at one point! !
Everyone knew that the suspense of this game was over.

Sure enough, after entering the fourth quarter, Bulls head coach Thibodeau made a large-scale substitution adjustment, and the Bulls' rotation lineup came on the court!
It is clear!
The Bulls have now chosen to give up the game early.

After seeing this scene, the Cavaliers coach made substitutions and main players like Wang Yan and Kelly Irving returned to the bench to rest.

The final score of this game was 121:102.
The Cavaliers defeated the Bulls on the road.

In terms of post-match statistics, the player with the highest score was naturally Wang Yan.

He scored 45 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists in this game!
On the Bulls side, the highest scoring player was Derrick Rose. Although the Bulls' star player tried his best, he only scored 26 points.

After the game.

Bulls head coach Thibodeau was extremely depressed when he was interviewed by reporters: "Our players were unable to find the rhythm in the game tonight. In my opinion, this is the biggest reason for the loss."

"It is undeniable that the Cavaliers are strong, but they are not invincible!"

……

after one day.

The Cavaliers finally returned to the Quicken Loans Arena. In the first two games of the new season, the Cavaliers played away.

And in the next game, the Cavaliers can finally play at their home court.

The opponent in the third round of the NBA regular season is the Trail Blazers!
The Trail Blazers' current record is 2 wins and 1 loss.

The status can only be described as average.

11 month 5 day.

The stands at the Quicken Loans Center were packed with people.

Under the cheers of the DJ on the scene, the starting players of both teams came on stage one after another.

On the Trail Blazers side.

Coach Nate McMillan sent out the strongest lineup, including Damian Lillard on the outside and Nicolas Batum on the front line.

These two offensive powerhouses of the team are all on the field!

just.

After the game started, the Trail Blazers immediately encountered restrictions from the Cavaliers.

Perhaps it is because this game is the Cavaliers' first home game of the new season, which makes every player have a strong desire to perform!
From the first minute, Kyrie Irving and Jimmy Butler frequently demonstrated their offensive talents on the outside!

Of course, on the Trail Blazers side, Damian Lillard also has certain shooting abilities, but in comparison, Lillard's shooting percentage is still slightly inferior to Irving and Butler!

The most important thing is that the Trail Blazers' inside defense has absolutely no way to deal with Wang Yan!
Under the basket.

Wang Yan was not polite at all to the Trail Blazers players!
Complete dunks one after another!
After the first quarter, the home team Cavaliers have successfully expanded their lead to 15 points!
In the second quarter, the Cavaliers' scoring efficiency was significantly improved!

Especially Wang Yan.

In addition to frequently completing dunks in the paint, his shooting ability from the outside is also quite accurate.

All kinds of unreasonable three-pointers made the defensive players mentally collapse.

Ever since.

At the end of the second quarter, the away Trail Blazers players had completely lost their fighting spirit.

The Cavaliers lead their opponents by 30 points...

In the third and fourth quarters, although the Trail Blazers tried hard, they were unable to narrow the gap.

Four quarters of battle are over.

The Cavaliers defeated their opponents 109:82.

Won three consecutive wins in the new regular season!
