Chapter 213 Justifying Thibodeau's Name
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Rose ran across the center line with the ball and raised his hand to signal that the tactics would start from the left half.

Bogans took off immediately and dashed across the free throw line, moving wide from the right elbow to the left wing.

Upon seeing this, Rose raised his hand to the ball, followed by striding into the paint area, and unabashedly rushed to the right wing position.Noah received the pass at the top of the arc at the same time, and turned to the right without observation, while Luol Deng ran to Rose who circled out, and the two played off-ball screens for each other.

But although the movement method was a cover, the degree of physical contact was zero, and it did not delay Durant and Westbrook.

The Bulls spent 10 seconds in that way, and finally created a better chance for Rose to catch the ball.

Noah threw the ball over quickly, then strode to the free throw line and set a screen for Luol Deng.

In the same period of time, Boozer also used the interference provided by Luol Deng to transfer the short corner from the left to the right.

At first glance, the Bulls have two more opportunities.

It's a pity that the two Bulls players didn't get rid of the defense. Let alone scoring the ball, even connecting the ball is risky.

Su Yang is too familiar with Thibodeau's little routines. He arranged Westbrook to stalk Rose early, and other people's zone defensive strategies. When Luol Deng and Boozer were covering each other, Durant and Ibaka directly switched defenses and bullied him. Those two like COSCO.

Rose, who took the ball, hesitated for a while, and didn't pass to Luol Deng at the top of the arc, nor did he pass to Boozer who moved to the short corner on the right.

Rose calmly turned to face Westbrook, slumped his shoulders and accelerated, and after one step, he turned to Qianba to shoot two points.

The shot was quite sudden, with a high arc and a very fast bullet speed, as if it was pulled by some kind of force, and it was completed in an instant.

Westbrook twists and jumps fast enough and has the advantage of height and wingspan, but he still lets the basketball fly over his fingers.

bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.

The Bulls' bench applauded excitedly, and Thibodeau also heaved a sigh of relief, and his entire belly slowly contracted.

"Amazing, it's amazing not to slow down and change direction..."

Su Yang sighed in his heart, the Thunder had already defended the Bulls very badly just now, and it was Rose who broke it violently.

However, Rose's violent cracking is an inefficient scoring method compared to the Thunder's previous two dunks, which is acceptable.

Between sighs, Thunder launched its first offensive.

Su Yang got up and gestured tactical gestures at the five people in the field, instructing to play a Chicago routine to pay tribute to Thibodeau.

The main thing is that Thibodeau's net worth is tens of millions, and he didn't squander it on girls, and he didn't even start a family. He loved basketball all his life, and he can be called a ball idiot.

In addition, many people mistakenly think that Thibodeau's offensive guidance is terrible, but Thibodeau was an offensive genius in college, and he didn't do shit defense at all. After becoming a coach, he also has a very deep understanding of pass and cut tactics, but overemphasizes defense.

Strictly speaking, Thibodeau's transformation is a bit like Pat Riley. With the unparalleled offensive Lakers, they were swept by Chuck Daly's Pistons defensively in the Finals and failed to achieve three consecutive championships. Then they copied the Pistons' fierce defensive routines. Also various emphasis.

The famous Chicago cover routine was first promoted by Thibodeau in the Bulls, and he can be called the inventor.

Su Yang used it for three seasons for nothing, and even used it in the All-Star Rookie Challenge, and received many compliments.

Therefore, consciously, we must salute both public and private.

As his gesture fell, the Thunder started with a five-out formation. Westbrook ran across the center line, raised his hand and threw the ball to the top of the arc.

Chandler received the ball with both hands raised high, while Westbrook ran to the right wing simultaneously and set a wide screen for Durant.

Durant took the opportunity to rush to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, and formed a hand-to-hand cooperation with the oncoming Chandler. After receiving the basketball, he took advantage of the screen to get rid of Luol Deng, and rushed to the free throw line in a big stride. Emergency stop and take-off mid-range shot.

Luol Deng encountered two screens in a row, and it was too late to catch up, and Noah had to stay in the waist area on the right side to prevent Chandler and Westbrook from cutting inside, and did not dare to risk switching defenses. , The Thunder started with 6 points in a row.

Seeing the basketball hit the net, Su Yang turned to face the Bulls bench, beating his chest to Thibodeau from a distance.

It's a pity that Thibodeau didn't look at him, but yelled at Luol Deng on the court, angrily reprimanding him for not focusing enough on defense.

The two teams switched offense and defense. Rose ran the ball across the center line, threw it to Bogans on the left as usual, and strode towards the paint.

The Bulls continued to implement the previous tactics of "continuously stacking screens in the paint". The intention to pass to the left midfielder Boozer was as obvious as black and white mixed in a group of white cats. any chance.

Bogans had to throw the ball to the top of the arc, and Rose, who inserted into the paint, once again used the cover of Luol Deng to circle out.

Except for Boozer's attempt to catch the ball, the Bulls' tactical movement was exactly the same as in the previous round, which seemed unbelievable.

After tossing around, Rose still got the ball on the right wing, and Boozer used Noah's cover to catch the ball.

Instead, the Thunder took the initiative to change. Cook followed Su Yang's routine and gave up marking Bogans, who was lacking in shooting. He shrank the left elbow to help double-team the delay. After Ibaka returned to his position, he quickly turned around and re-marked Bogans. s.

The Bulls' offense stagnated, and Boozer had no chance to find Noah as a cover, so he had to turn around and throw the ball to the top of the arc.

With only 8 seconds left on the offensive clock, Rose caught the ball with both hands, ignored Boozer's screen, and rushed to shoot a three-pointer against Westbrook.

bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.

Everyone on the Bulls bench applauded, and even Thibodeau, who has always been serious, smiled a little.

"Grass!"

Su Yangwen sighed in Chinese, thinking that Ross was just giving the Bulls the best of both worlds. Thibodeau drew one set of tactics off the field. After the game started, he played the same inefficient tactical routine three times in a short period of time, making the fans scold him for not being able to guide him. The offense is not wronged either.

The two teams switched offense and defense, and the Thunder still started with a five-out formation.

Seeing that the Bulls are strictly man-to-man, Su Yang gestures to remind him to cover with double flanks, which makes it difficult to catch up with dense positions.

Westbrook immediately threw the ball to the right wing, and then strode to the right 45-degree three-point wall to cover.Chandler followed closely, and the two suddenly formed a double-screen formation. Durant, who had the ball, easily moved to the top of the arc, while the center was wide open.

Noah stayed in the paint to defend against breakthroughs, but Durant didn't rush to make a shot, but rushed to the basket with Chandler.

The two advanced in parallel, Noah was forced to choose to look after Chandler, and Durant slowly made a layup and hit the rebound.

Cheers erupted in the arena, Rose dribbled the ball across the center line and passed it to Bogans on the left.

Boozer also ran to try to catch the ball, but failed as before, and Noah took the ball and turned to the right again.

As if performing a while loop, Rose appeared on the right wing on time and raised his hand to catch the basketball.

Maybe because he felt that it was a waste to do other operations, Rose took the ball and turned around to take off, rushing to shoot for two points.

bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.

The Bulls bench stood up and applauded, and Thibodeau also cheered, without feeling any impact.

The two teams switched offense and defense, and the Thunder started with the horns.

Westbrook passed the ball to Ibaka on the left elbow, took advantage of his cover to cut in, and went straight to the left waist to stand still.

The back screen suddenly formed, Durant started from the left sideline, got rid of Luol Deng and went straight to the basket.Ibaka made a high-lobed pass at the same time, and Rose, who was trying to switch defenses, was difficult to interfere. Durant easily caught the ball and scored with a backhand.

The Thunder hit 10% of their first five goals and temporarily led the Bulls 7-[-]. The audience cheered.

ESPN commentary seat, Mike Brin said: "Kevin Durant has scored 8 points in a row, and Derrick Rose has scored 7 points in a row. There is no doubt that this game is the beginning of the regular season MVP battle. We are witnessing history. .”

Van Gundy laughed: "Compared with two players, I am more willing to observe two coaches. After Chicago's five offenses after the opening, four of them use the exact same tactics, while Oklahoma has five offenses after the opening, and each of them uses the same tactics. no the same…"
