Chapter 1178 The Ultimate Speed

Knicks starting lineup: Zuo Li, David Lee, Battier, Danny Green and Curry.

This starting lineup only slightly suppresses the Bulls in terms of height, mainly due to Zuo Li. However, overall, because of the presence of Luol Deng, a defensive hero, and the construction of Thibodeau, a defensive master, the Bulls should

They are one of the few teams in the league that can face the Knicks' defense head-on.

In fact, it is generally believed that there are only three, the Grizzlies in the Western Conference, the Spurs and the Bulls in the Eastern Conference. The defense of other teams cannot face the Knicks head-on, not even the Heat. The Heat must rely on offense to get involved, and defense alone will certainly not be able to limit the Knicks.

Damn it, after all, they don't have a big center, which can't limit Zuo Li's performance at all.

Therefore, before the game started, the outside world generally believed that whether the Bulls' defense was effective was the key to whether they could defeat or defeat in this series.

“COME ON!!!”

Just as the fans were listening to various commentators analyzing the game, a roar suddenly came from the sidelines.

The fans at the scene looked around and saw the "artist" Noah who had just stood on the court at a glance.

He was beating his chest to cheer himself up.

Zuo Lidu laughed. It had been two months since they had met. Noah's appearance was becoming more and more artistic. With this look, there was no problem at all wearing black-rimmed glasses and pretending to be a melancholy artist.

The Bulls players understand Noah's behavior very well, and they really need to boost their morale against the left winger.

And tonight Thibodeau also gave Noah a very important task, which is to keep up with Zuo Li no matter what.

"As long as they fight fast, you must keep up. If we fall into position, I will ask Luol Deng to help you defend. Remember, keep up!"

Thibodeau patted Noah on the shoulder and gave him solemn instructions before the game.

Yes, Thibodeau believes that their lineup is capable of playing, whether starting or coming off the bench, the only problem is Zuo Li.

They have a lot of insiders, including Noah, Boozer, Gibson and two big white men.

But in one-on-one, no one can match Zuoli, Noah is too slow, and Boozer and Gibson are too short.

Even because Noah and Gibson's personal offensive power was too weak, Zuo Li was unable to invest more energy on the defensive end, causing Zuo Li to become more explosive on the offensive end.

This is what Thibodeau is most worried about.

So Noah - this guy who's a great defensive player.

"I'm sorry, buddy, I'll sacrifice you and everyone will be happy."

There is nothing Thibodeau can do, this is a sacrifice that must be made.

Of course, Thibodeau will do his best to drag the Knicks into position. This is the rhythm the Bulls are familiar with.

So when the Knicks' starting lineup came out, he was quite happy. Battier was already old and his speed was obviously not enough. Although David Lee was not slow, there was no situation where he could not keep up. He only relied on left to make peace.

Curry, playing fast is unrealistic!

And Curry definitely can't guard Rose, which also allows the Bulls to launch smoothly on the offensive end.

This is indeed the case.

Although the jump ball still didn't work, even though Zuoli completed a flying dunk on the first ball.

But landing in position was really the Bulls' strength. In the next six minutes, the two sides fought 50-50.

Zuo Li made shots inside and outside to provide support. He scored 5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, which was very cool.

But Bulls Rose was not bad either, with 6 points, 1 assist and 1 steal, and he also restricted Curry. Curry didn't score a point in six minutes.

14-14, both sides entered the first official timeout.

Bulls fans felt relieved. Although they dreamed of beating the Knicks, the Knicks felt like they were too dominant this season.

Look at the stag, the mother who was beaten doesn’t even recognize it.

So Bulls fans are afraid that they will follow in the footsteps of the Bucks.

But now, it seems pretty good.

"We can, we can win! Stronger and better defense, fight for every ball!" Boozer roared on the bench, this is his role.

Although Ross did not speak, his expression showed agreement with Boozer's words.

He didn't even talk to Zuo Li at the beginning of today, he just wanted to hold his breath and win the Knicks in Madison!

But before the Bulls could continue their efforts, the Knicks had already changed their formation.

"Okay, guys, it's time to go out. Remember our plan, there is no speed, only faster."

After the timeout, Zuo Li stood up first and said.

Then I saw the other four people: Dream Green, Danny Green, Klay Thompson and Curry.

"Wow, one against four! The Knicks suddenly changed their formation!" Yu Jia exclaimed on the sidelines.

This is the first time the Knicks have come up with this lineup. Generally speaking, the Knicks will play Beverley in a one-on-four game. It is also a purely defensive lineup, and the inside will not play Dream Chaser.

Shane tops.

This is actually a brand new combination!

"Hey, Ultimate Warrior, have you seen it before? Let me show you what real run and gun is!"

Zuo Li moved his hands and feet, he couldn't wait any longer.

Serve!

too fast!

Zuo Li moved forward to take away the defense, slipped out of the baseline and continued the pick-and-roll.

Then it’s Curry’s performance time!

Curry's dribbling rhythm changes are simply superb. From outside the three-point line, facing the attack of Rose and Hamilton, he toyed with the entire Bulls' defense in a leisurely manner.

Three points!

Curry takes the lead in turning on the Knicks' clarion call!

Before the fans at Madison Square Garden could shout out, the Knicks are here again!

Stand left!

Rose dribbled into the frontcourt and was double-teamed. He jumped to pass the ball and was intercepted by the left winger!

Then with a ground pass, Curry and Klay, who had just double-teamed the left winger, rushed down from left to right.

Rose tried his best to defend, but Curry didn't force it, but easily turned around and dug out!

"Sorry Derek!"

Bang!

Following up, he caught the ball inside the left free throw line and took off for a two-handed slam dunk!

Rose turned around and blocked the sky. Unfortunately, Rose was dunked by the left winger.

"It's so cruel. With this height and strength, no one can stop it!" Director Zhang praised.

Two consecutive goals, Madison was ignited, and so were the Bulls.

Especially this dunk made them feel dazed and eager to catch up.

Thibodeau made a substitution, and Belinelli and Gibson came on the scene to strengthen outside shooting and put pressure on the left winger.

But with this change, perimeter defense is no longer guaranteed.

Rose scored, but he couldn't be happy because he turned around and the Knicks passed the frontcourt in 2 seconds. In 3 seconds, he pulled out to the left to catch the ball. Next door, Green gave Clay a pick-and-roll and scored the ball in the left wing.

brush!

Clay scored another 3 points!

Gibson turned around to catch the ball inside but was rejected by Zuo Li. Danny Green got the ball and assisted Curry. Curry made a fast break layup and scored two more points!

…

Horrible torrent!

In less than 6 minutes, the Knicks scored 28 points and hit a 28-10 climax, leading by 18 points at the end of the first quarter!

Bulls fans were all numb. They never dreamed that the pace would become so fast!

The Bulls never expected that this lineup would be so strong!

"The speed is too fast, the rhythm is too good, the Bulls can't hold it anymore!" Barkley said!
