() Seeing Scales calling a timeout, Barkley and Kenny Smith in the TNT live broadcast room first looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
The Deterrence Alliance had been fighting a whirlwind for more than half a month, and it was actually cracked by **Vicci?!
After being shocked, Kenny Smith suddenly laughed heartily: "Haha, Charles, the Bulls can't beat the Tornadoes now, and your Jay may not be able to score 30 points. I won the bet this time!"
"Huh, old guy, don't be happy too early!" Barkley refused to admit defeat, but he also knew that if he fell into a position next, the Spurs would definitely defend Chen Jie tightly, hoping to score 16 points in the next time.
Easier said than done? What's more, in a positional battle, Chen Jie's right to take action is not as much as when fighting a whirlwind.
Should we let this old guy win back a victory?
Barkley glanced at Smith, feeling unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it.
At this moment, what else can he do? He can only hope that Chen Jie's positional battle will still be against the odds.
On the field, the timeout had just ended, and several Bulls starting players were preparing to walk back to the field. Scales suddenly pulled Chen Jie, and Chen Jie turned his head and was stunned for a moment.
Scales looked at him and then said calmly: "Jie, fight well."
These four simple words made Chen Jie's heart move and he nodded heavily.
At this moment, the eyes of the fans in the stands of the United Center were all fixed on the player carrying the No. 1 jersey.
Although some of them are experts and some are outsiders, they have all seen it now. The Bulls' fast play, which has been racing around the league for half a month, has been restrained by the Spurs. Next, it is time for a head-on confrontation. There is no fast play.
A whirlwind, what can we do?
When everyone felt a little desperate, they thought of the No. 1 who had created many miracles and now had the highest hopes for almost all Chicagoans.
This is also the reason why they looked at Chen Jie.
Those eyes were full of expectation.
Chen Jie naturally felt this feeling of being watched by tens of thousands of people, and he was also aware of their eager expectations.
Carrying the hopes of so many people, Chen Jie felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. However, he also knew that he could not let them down.
Watching the five Spurs players wearing white jerseys walking back to the court step by step, Chen Jie was curious. What about positional battles? Am I still afraid of you?
The game restarted. After the Bulls served from the sideline, Hinrich took the ball to organize the attack.
Because there was no need to play fast, Skiles replaced Duhon, who was not slow, with Hinrich, who had better organizational skills and experience.
Luer Deng, however, has not been replaced. He is still on the court at this moment. Chandler and Curry are still on the inside. This is basically the strongest lineup the Bulls can field.
Over time, this lineup will definitely be able to dominate the league, as long as they do not separate. This is a truth recognized by everyone, but now, facing the powerful Spurs, can they do it?
Are they okay?
Everyone who paid attention to this game silently asked this question in their hearts.
The Bulls told them with practical actions.
Hinrich dribbled the ball and looked for an opportunity at the top of the three-point arc. Curry had already asked for the ball inside, but Hinrich did not pass the ball to him. The position he wanted was not deep enough. Facing Duncan, in this position,
His success rate is very low, and Hinrich will naturally not let him play singles easily.
Chen Jie, another scoring tool of the Bulls, did not rashly mention going to the line to catch the ball. At this moment, he was looking at the direction of Hinrich's dribbling while constantly pushing and shoving Bruce Bowen.
Since you have a lot of little moves, don't blame me for having a lot of little moves. You are rich in experience. In my previous life, I met so many old basketball hooligans on the cement floor. I have more experience than you. Who is afraid of whom?
Just as the two were fighting, Chen Jie suddenly ran in the opposite direction and ran towards the three-point line. When Bowen saw this action, he thought that Chen Jie was going out to catch the ball, so naturally he did not dare to neglect and moved his center of gravity quickly.
Follow Chen Jie soon.
But just as Chen Jie took two steps out, he suddenly turned around and ran in the opposite direction. That direction was the basket.
Bruce Bowen was anxious, and quickly adjusted his focus to chase back, but just as he turned around, he suddenly felt that he had hit a wall hard.
That's right, it was Chandler. Chandler seized the opportunity and came up to cover Chen Jie inside. The two of them had practiced this tactic many times in training, and this time, they finally succeeded in the game.
Used it.
Bowen, who was blocked, could only watch as Chen Jie soared into the air, while Hinrich threw the basketball high into the air.
Nesterovich had no time to make an impact and dunked in an alley-oop!
The entire audience was instantly excited!
"Haha, this kid!" Barkley smiled from ear to ear when he saw this ball. This is really a good tactic. Bruce Bowen was at his wits end now.
"Huh, it's just a fluke!" Smith said disdainfully.
Little did the two of them know that this was just the beginning. Although Chen Jie was also complaining that it was really tiring to get rid of Bruce Bowen's defense. However, he had plenty of physical strength. Although it was a little troublesome, it wasn't...
Do you want to run back and forth a few more steps? Now is the time to show the results of your physical training these days.
Hum hum, Bowen, I can’t run away from you!
Chen Jie sneered in his heart.
In the next few attacks, the Spurs' success rate remained above 80%, but they still failed to increase the score because their opponent was Chen Jie, who was not afraid of trouble and had excellent physical fitness.
He spares the entire half-court run to find an open three-point opportunity at the bottom line, uses a double block to reach the top of the arc to catch the ball and directly breaks through for a layup, or directly posts up to Bruce Bowen for a turn-over jump shot.
Chen Jie proved that even in a positional battle, he is still a scoring weapon!
In just the eight minutes remaining in the second half, Chen Jie scored 12 points. His score also reached 26 points. It seemed easy to score 30 points.
The Bulls, at the end of the third quarter, stabilized the score at 67-71, only trailing by four points. There was still hope of victory in the fourth quarter.
In the TNT live broadcast room, Smith's face was already livid because Barkley next to him was constantly teasing him!
Barkley felt happy in his heart. His vision was indeed right. This Jay Sean was a genius. Even without this set of tactics, he was still a genius and a superstar. Now, those who kept nagging had nothing to say.
Haha, Shaq, can you shut up?
And just when Barkley was having a good time with himself, the fans at the Bulls' United Center were also cheering. Although they were still lagging behind, they were still full of hope.
Because, even if there is no Kuaishou Tornado, they still have Jay Sean!
We have Jay Sean. This sentence has become a favorite sentence among Bulls fans and fans of other teams in the future.
This sentence is full of pride!
