Chapter 523 3-1
Game [-] of the Eastern Conference Finals arrives.

The entire Bulls had a sense of determination in the warm-up activities before the start of this game-they were already 2-1 behind. If they lose this game tonight, the Knicks will get the match point, and even more so. The important thing is that no one in history has been able to pull three games in a row when they are behind 1-3 on the stage of the playoffs. No one can do it, which means that if the Bulls fall into this situation , they are no different from being eliminated!

So this game must be won tonight!
Kenny Smith: "I think not many people imagined this before the start of this round of the series. The Knicks will lead the entire series 2-1. After all, the Bulls beat the Knicks in the regular season. For the team, before the start of this round of the series, more people thought that if the Bulls eliminated the Knicks 4-0, it was almost the Bulls eliminated the Knicks 4-1. Not many people would think that the Knicks can Win this round of the series, but judging from the current situation, the Knicks have become the team that may get out of the series! But if you think about it carefully, this is really no big deal, this is the NBA, this is the A miracle NBA playoffs!"

Kenny Smith talked eloquently, while his partner Charles Barkley gave a smirk: "Kenny, I don't think what you said is accurate. There are still many people who are optimistic about the Knicks. At least Yi's fans must believe that he can." We won the final victory! What’s worth mentioning is that Yi is the top voter for this year’s All-Star, with more than 5 million votes! Let’s make a slight discount, so there are at least 300 million fans who support Yi!”

"The numbers are scary, and Yi did what we fans believed he could do, and now the Knicks are ahead, and they're only one game away from taking more of the initiative. I believe that the result of this game will not change much, Yi will win the Bulls in the third consecutive game, get the third victory in the series, and rewrite the big score to 1-3!"

Barkley is now completely overwhelmed by Yi Jianlian, and he said that he feeds Yi Jianlian's fans without opening his mouth, which is rare in his entire commentary career.

He admired Yi Jianlian to the extent that he admired Michael Jordan back then!

Soon the competition will really begin!

In the fourth game of the series, Thibodeau obviously prepared a lot of different things in order to win this time. The target he took out at the beginning was the target against Dragic who made a big splash in the previous game. He let Hamilton, who is at the second position of the Bulls, constantly use confrontation to interfere with Dragic.

The sudden enhancement of the defensive lineup made Dragic very uncomfortable for a while!

The Bulls took the initiative on the court during the time when the Knicks' No. 12 position was sluggish. Derrick Rose was fully fired, and the Bulls led 9 to 3 by [-] points.

"The momentum of the entire Bulls today is obviously different from the previous game. Their game is obviously more organized and calm. Now they are like the Eastern Conference that stood at the top of the Eastern Conference for half a season in the regular season. Overlord!" ESPN commentator Bill Walton was full of praise for the Bulls' state at the start today, but at the end, Bill Walton changed the subject: "It's just that if they don't give Yi enough defensive pressure, then Their lead really isn't much of an advantage!"

"Shh!"

As soon as Bill Wharton finished speaking, Yi Jianlian suddenly pulled up the ball at this moment and scored 3 points from outside the three-point line, directly smoothing out the 3-point difference behind!
There was a huge cheer at the scene!
Superstar moments like this are what all fans look forward to. They like this kind of key goal, especially when such a goal is particularly unexpected, they are even more satisfied!
"Sure enough! If you don't put pressure on Yi's defense, but just focus on defending a main player who is not the core, then this Knicks team can always find a way to score, and this kind of goal will not be accidental , let alone a goal that took a lot of effort to score. No matter how much Yi Jianlian scored just now, I am afraid that Yi Jianlian just spent so much effort to score the goal. On the contrary, Yi Jianlian scored this goal. It's so easy!"

Thibodeau looked at what happened on the field with a heavy face. He didn't know what the commentators were talking about now. If he knew, he would definitely run away and yell at the commentators: "I don't know Should Yi be defended? I don’t know if Yi Jianlian is the core of the Knicks? But what did you think of him in the last game? Didn’t he still not be able to stop him from scoring in the end? Didn’t the Knicks still win the same game? ?"

Thibodeau believes, or all the media believes that the key to the New York Knicks winning a game lies in Dragic. Might have reversed the Bulls so easily!

Since everyone said that Dragic was the key player in the last game, Thibodeau naturally wanted to find a breakthrough from him!
The result...Obviously whether Dragic can score or not, and whether he can organize the offense well is not the key to the Knicks winning or losing. The person who can really decide whether to win or lose this game is Yi Jianlian!

That's the end of the first quarter!
Yi Jianlian worked hard and led the Knicks to establish a 28-point advantage after the first quarter 22 to 6!

This point difference can be regarded as the widest point difference between the two teams after so many games before!

"The Bulls are losing!"

Almost all experts have come to such a conclusion in their hearts.

No way, the Bulls can't take care of the tail now. Dragic is still Yi Jianlian. They can only choose to target one, and they can't target two points at the same time.

The Bulls really had nothing to do, and the next game flow was unexpectedly calm. The Knicks led by 6 points in the first quarter and led by 8 points after the first half.

Seeing that this point difference is going towards double digits!
Judging from the worse state of the Bulls in the second quarter, the arrival of a double-digit point difference is sooner or later!

But no one expected that Derrick Rose would break out in the third quarter of the game. He made 7 of 5 shots, 5 of 5 free throws, and scored 17 points in a single quarter.

Even Yi Jianlian only scored 11 points in this quarter, which made him lose.

His display of power also stopped the Bulls' continued decline. Unfortunately, he only managed to stop the decline, and the Bulls were still 8 points behind.

In the critical fourth quarter, Derrick Rose and Yi Jianlian, who had fought for the entire third quarter, continued to play at the beginning of the fourth quarter, only resting for a few minutes during the intermission.

But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, D'Antoni also double-teamed Derrick Rose. Derrick Rose obviously didn't expect that D'Antoni would suddenly use double-team tactics against him at this time, and his offensive performance suddenly changed. struggled.

"Shameless!"

Thibodeau looked at the Knicks players who were always by Derrick Rose's side, and couldn't help cursing inwardly.

The Knicks are too shameless, actually double-teaming the whole process!

He completely forgot that he treated Yi Jianlian in the same way in the last game!

In the double-team, Derrick Rose lost himself, and his firepower declined at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Later, due to physical problems, his efficiency dropped to the extreme, and he missed all the last 4 shots.

Derrick Rose is the toughest spear of the Bulls. If this spear is broken, the offensive firepower of the entire Bulls will drop by a notch.

Struggling, barely retaining the suspense, the Bulls were pulled by the Knicks to a 4-point gap in the last 10 minutes of the fourth quarter.

And after Yi Jianlian hit a three-pointer at 2 minutes and 20 seconds of the fourth quarter, the game completely lost suspense!
In the end, the Knicks once again defeated the Bulls at home 108 to 97, and they extended the big score of the series to 3-1!

The Knicks are still one game away from continuing their final victory!
Yi Jianlian scored a triple-double of 31 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds in this game, and scored a 33-double again after a game.

He actually played this game very easily. Except for a few times in the third quarter in order to restrain Derrick Rose's scoring momentum, he basically stepped forward at critical moments. In the rest of the game, he More is delivering shells for his teammates.

Dragic got two assists from him in this game, scoring 9 points, 4 assists and 2 rebounds.

It has to be said that in the case of being targeted in the playoffs, it is indeed difficult for the current Dragic to take on the core role of the offensive end.

But it's also because he attracts the defense, and other Knicks players benefit from it.

For example, Felton, he scored 18 points in this game!
When the Bulls focused more on Yi Jianlian and Dragic, as the only point left on the perimeter, he got a lot of good shots in this game!

Stoudemire also scored 21 points and 14 rebounds in this game.

The "four cores" of the Knicks still performed their duties in this game and completed their tasks well.

In the Bulls who lost the game again, Derrick Rose's data is still superstar: 37 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.

There are not many players in the entire league who can get this kind of data in the playoffs, and even fewer players can get this kind of data in several consecutive games.

It's just a pity that Derrick Rose also had problems in today's game. He also lost himself in the sudden double-teaming of the Knicks. If it wasn't for his poor performance in the fourth quarter of the game, this game The Bulls have a chance to win the game!
Of course, if Derrick Rose is the reason for the Bulls' defeat, it would be too unfair!

After all, no matter what, today's game would have been gone without Derrick Rose's sudden outburst in the third quarter. He stood up when his teammates couldn't stand up, but his teammates didn't stand up when he needed help. Come out!
Derrick Rose tried his best, but his teammates were a little bit worse.

Derrick Rose, who lost tonight's game, was obviously in a bad mood when he went to the locker room through the visiting team's tunnel.

What does a big score of 3-1 mean? I want to know with my ass!

Although it is good news that they can return to the home court for the next game, it is only the only good news!
And in this case, a home field advantage really doesn't affect anything, the Bulls' fifth game is really difficult to play!
***
"Yi, tomorrow you will go to Chicago to play the fifth game of the series. Are you confident that you can win this game?"

"Of course, our performance tonight is enough to prove that we have become more and more relaxed in the confrontation with them. We have found a way to defeat them, and they are obviously very difficult to adapt to this change. I believe that even if the first The fifth game is in Chicago, and we can still win!"

"Moreover!" Yi Jianlian's expression became mysterious, "Moreover, we still have a tactic that we haven't used before. I believe this tactic can ensure our victory!"

Ok?
D'Antoni looked at Yi Jianlian in bewilderment, me, what tactics do we have yet to come up with?Are there really any tactics that have not been brought out?

His expression was captured by the media sitting below, and a reporter immediately asked D'Antoni: "Then Coach Mike, I don't know what tactic Yi is talking about, can you tell us about it?"

"cannot!"

D'Antoni simply refused!
Although he doesn't know what the specific tactics are, but he has been the head coach for so many years, so he must know what to say: "The fifth game of the series is a very critical game. If we win, we can If we advance to the finals, we will be in an embarrassing situation if we lose, so we can't say the final tactics, even if it's just a hint, I hope everyone can understand!"

I believe you a ghost, you bad old man is very bad!

A group of reporters listened to D'Antoni's calm expression to the end, and they all slandered in their hearts. They obviously didn't know what Yi Jianlian was talking about, and they pretended to be serious!Why are you so thick-skinned?

Yi Jianlian also looked at D'Antoni bragging with a strange expression. D'Antoni seemed to have noticed that Yi Jianlian was looking at him.

Yi Jianlian must know that he doesn't know tactics!
Being looked at by Yi Jianlian, D'Antoni finally blushed.

"Anyway, just wait and see! I believe that our final tactics will ensure that we win the fifth game!" Yi Jianlian made the final finish very confidently.

……

"Really? I'm looking forward to the final tactic that Yi said, but it's not easy to eliminate us in the fifth game. We will definitely win a round at home!"

A reporter brought Yi Jianlian's words to Derrick Rose. The latter had calmed down and became confident again.

In the fifth game, he will try his best to keep it!
