Chapter 210 Shocking Buzzer
Chicago Bulls head coach Tom Taberdeau originally hoped that his substitute players could more or less recover some points for the team, so Coach Tom Taberdeau let the five substitute players play on the court. There was a full half of the game, and the result of this was: the Chicago Bulls trailed by four points at the beginning of the second quarter to seven points behind the Indiana Pacers with 24:31.
Mr. Barack ***, President of the United States of America, who came to watch the game at the Chicago United Center Arena, home of the Chicago Bulls, couldn't help but be moved when he saw that his beloved hometown team was still behind in the middle of the second quarter. He shook his head helplessly.
"It's impossible to fight like this," Mr. President Barack *** said to himself.
Sitting next to Mr. President Barack ***, the man in black who seemed to be a staff member of the White House raised his head high, staring at a certain point of nothingness directly in front of him without moving to pick up Barack *** *Mr. President's words.Mr. President Barack *** shook his head self-indulgently, and continued to watch the game.
After being led by the Indiana Pacers with a score of 31:24, Chicago Bulls head coach Tom Tebodeau had to request a timeout again and rearrange the tactics.After this timeout, Xu Nuo, who had been on the court for about 13 minutes, could finally take a rest. The replacement for Xu Nuo was the team's original starting point guard Darren Collison. When the data is seven points and seven assists plus three steals.
"Darren looked quite unhappy." The backup small forward Paul George who went off with Xu Xu said to Xu Nuo.
"His starting position was taken by Irvington, of course he won't be happy." Xu Nuo said with a slight frown.
"But the starting players are all arranged by Coach Larry Brown." Paul George continued.
"It is true, but no matter who it is, it will not be very happy when it loses its starting position." Xu Nuo said impatiently, "Have you heard of any player who will be very happy to his teammates? Say, 'Come on, come on, you're going to be the starter,' unless he's used to being a backup."
Paul George nodded slowly.
"However, even Mr. President Barack *** came to watch the game in person tonight, so there is no reason for everyone to be unhappy." Xu Nuo continued.
Paul George shrugged, then glanced at President Barack *** sitting across the court.
After the timeout period, the Chicago Bulls began to replace the main players in a large area, with point guard Derrick Rose, small forward Luol Deng and center Joakim Noah all returning to the court.On the side of the Indiana Pacers, except for the Spaniard Rudy Fernandez who appeared at the shooting guard position, the other four players were completely changed. The point guard was Darren Collison, and the small forward was Danny Granger, David West at power forward, and Roy Hibbert at center are almost all the main players.
"This way the game will become more and more beautiful." Xu Nuo said to himself.
After returning from the timeout, the Chicago Bulls attacked first.When Derrick Rose saw that his opponent had changed from a promise to Darren Collison, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, because in this way he could show his prowess on the court.And the other players of the Chicago Bulls seem to know that the point guard has become the biggest weakness of the Indiana Pacers now, and they spare no effort to create scoring opportunities for Derrick Rose.Derrick Rose drove into the Indiana Pacers paint and drew a defensive foul on Roy Hibbert while scoring a layup.
"Three-pointer!" The Chicago Bulls' bench was boiling, and even Mr. Barack ***, who was sitting in the audience beside the court, was applauding for Derrick Rose.
"How did Darren defend this ball, and Derrick Rose broke in so easily." Paul George shook his head and said.
"Derrick Rose's breakthrough is too sharp to blame." Xu Nuo said.
"Are you trying to say that you are the only one on the team who can defend against Derrick Rose?" Paul George pouted and said, but Xu Nuo didn't answer him.
On the court, Derrick Rose, who was standing on the free throw line, missed an extra free throw. David West immediately put the defensive rebound in his arms.
"Hurry up and attack!" Xu Nuo who was sitting on the bench said eagerly, "If we can seize this rare opportunity to complete this attack, it will be a big blow to the morale of the Chicago Bulls!"
Darren Collison on the court also seemed to realize this, and quickly advanced the ball to the frontcourt, and then handed the ball to Danny Granger.At this time, the Chicago Bulls once again resorted to the double-team defense they had used at the beginning of the game, and Derrick Rose once again participated in the double-team of Danny Granger.
"Looks like the Chicago Bulls once again see our point guard position as our weakest link," said Paul George, who sat next to Promise, and Promise nodded.
And coach Larry Brown, who was standing on the sidelines supervising the battle, also thought so in his heart.
Danny Granger, who was double-teamed, had to choose to pass the ball, and the ball came to Darren Collison.However, Darren Collison did not choose to attack by himself, but passed the ball to Rudy Fernandez outside the three-point line.
"Pretty!" Xu Nuo nodded slightly.
However, Rudy Fernandez's long three-pointer from the outside missed the basket. The ball hit the basket hard and bounced high.
"Rebound!" Danny Granger yelled, but the rebound was stolen by Chicago Bulls backup power forward Taj Gibson, and the Indiana Pacers had to retreat quickly.
Derrick Rose handed the ball to center Joakim Noah inside, and Joakim Noah singled Roy Hibbert with the ball, but Joakim Noah's hook shot after the breakthrough was missed by Roy Hibbert. Hibbert sealed it with the tip of a finger.After that, Danny Granger forced a shot from beyond the three-point line and missed. After one round, the score was still 26:31. The Chicago Bulls at home were still five points behind the Indiana Pacers who were playing away.
"I really didn't expect that when I sneaked out of my busy schedule to watch a game live, I actually saw a defensive battle between the tip of the needle and the wheat." Mr. President Barack ***, who was sitting by the side of the court, said to himself with a little disappointment.
Mr. President Barack *** said so, David West received a pass from Danny Granger and easily scored two points on the court to help the Indiana Pacers widen the point difference again to seven points.One round later, Derrick Rose assisted Kyler Korver and hit Kyler Korver's third outside three-pointer in the game. At 29:33, the point difference on the field finally returned to five. within minutes.
"This way the game will be a bit interesting." Mr. President Barack *** said to himself, and the man in black sitting next to him was still staring at a certain point of nothingness directly in front of his eyes. , turning a deaf ear to the words of Mr. President Barack ***.
On the next play, Darren Collison was fouled by Derrick Rose.At this moment, the buzzer in the United Center in Chicago rang, promising to appear again, replacing the depressed Darren Collison.Meanwhile, Rudy Fernandez was replaced by DeMar DeRozan, and the Chicago Bulls replaced Taj Gibson with Carlos Boozer.
"Damn it, it's just such a pitiful playing time!" Darren Collison, who was replaced, was obviously quite angry, sitting on the team's bench and staring at the floor in front of him angrily.
Derrick Rose scored another driving layup after causing an offensive foul on Darren Collison, finally helping the team narrow the gap to just two points.However, due to the promised re-appearance, the Chicago Bulls did not dare to continue to double-team Danny Granger unscrupulously, which gave Danny Granger more room to shoot.After the breakthrough, Xu Nuo gave the ball to Danny Granger. Danny Granger made a shot from outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle. The ball "swiped" like a sharp arrow and passed through the net.
"It's been a long time since I scored such a clean shot, thanks to your pass!" Danny Granger patted Xu Nuo on the back and said, Xu Nuo smiled, and then continued to face Derrick Rose's offense .
The defensive battle between the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers continued into the closing seconds of the first half.The Chicago Bulls trailed the Indiana Pacers by just one point with 37:38 to go after Carlos Boozer made a strong drive to the rim with four seconds remaining in the clock.
"It shouldn't be possible to complete an attack in four seconds." President Barack *** on the sidelines said to himself.
To everyone's surprise, however, after receiving the ball from DeMar DeRozan, Nuo threw the ball from just one step away from the baseline and directly towards the Chicago Bulls' hoop. .In fact, such a goal is not surprising. It will almost always appear at the end of each quarter, but the chance of such a goal is very small.However, Xu Nuo threw the ball across the entire court in the air. During the whistle at the end of the first half, while the red light on the backboard was on, the ball "swiped" through the net!
The Chicago United Center Arena was silent for about two seconds, and suddenly became noisy.
"That place is 28 meters away from the basket on the opposite side of the field, and he threw the ball directly!" A fan said loudly in surprise.
Mr. President Barack *** looked at Xu Nuo's back, and shook his head in surprise and helplessness.Relying on the promised buzzer-beater, the Indiana Pacers entered the intermission with a 41:37 lead over the Chicago Bulls by four points.
