Skiles felt that finding a substitute for Chen Jie could be put on the agenda.
But now, it is not the time to consider this issue.
The first thing Skiles should consider now is how to stop the Bulls' decline on the court at this moment.
Just when Skiles was thinking about countermeasures, LeBron James once again broke through and scored a layup. At the same time, he also caused a foul on Chandler. James also made the extra free throw.
He expanded the Cavaliers' lead by three points again.
Now, the Bulls are 13 points behind the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers lead 25 to 12. The cheers of the Credit Center fans are very harsh to Scales' ears.
The only solution Skiles could think of at this moment was to substitute someone.
But there are only these few players on the bench, who else can be used?
Skiles frowned and thought for a moment, and his eyes fell on a player at this moment.[
This player is Kwame Brown, who has just transferred to the Bulls.
Seeing him, Scales thought of a not very good idea, but at this time, he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
He decided to replace Noccioni with Kwame Brown.
What Skiles is thinking is that since the offense can no longer be opened, and there is no one who can replace Chen Jie to revitalize the Bulls' offense.
Well, why not adjust the Bulls' offense instead of ensuring the Bulls' defense first.
Although the Bulls' current defense is weak, to a certain extent it still has something to do with the inability to open up the offense.
However, Scales really can't think of a way to treat the fundamental problem right now. Therefore, he can only use this temporary method instead of the root cause.
Kwame Brown comes on the court. He has height, body, and jump. Together with Chandler, he forms the Bulls' twin towers inside. At least, it won't make LeBron James and others' breakthroughs so crazy.
Let's temporarily curb the Cavaliers' crazy offense, and then think of other ways to chase points.
Maybe by that time, Chen Jie's condition will be better.
Now, that's all Scales can do.
Thinking this, Skiles shouted: "Kwame!"
Kwame Brown, who was watching the game on the court and worried about the situation of the Bulls, stood up quickly when he heard Skiles' call.
He understood that this was Skiles wanting to play himself.
Kwame Brown has actually been waiting for a long time. Seeing that the team's situation on the field is not good, Kwame Brown has long been eager to go on the court and help the team.[
He quickly stood up, took off his clothes, and jogged to Scales' side.
"After you play, protect the rebounds and guard the paint. Understand?" Skiles' explanation was concise and concise. He didn't know if Kwame Brown could understand it, but he didn't have much time to explain.
Because on the court, the Bulls happened to be attacking. Chris Duhon took the ball and controlled it. He originally planned to pass the ball to his teammates, but after watching it for a while, he found that none of his teammates were able to get out of a good position. In fact, now on the court
The movement of the Bulls' players was very chaotic.
Seeing that his teammates had no chance, Du Hongnai had no choice but to break through on his own.
But the Cavaliers were already prepared. How could they give Duhong a chance to break through?
Halfway through Duhong's forced breakthrough, the ball was destroyed by Mo Williams.
Before the basketball went out of bounds, it hit Pavlovic's toe. The Bulls got the ball in the frontcourt and avoided another offensive error.
Seeing the dead ball opportunity coming, Skiles had no time to say anything more to Kwame Brown. He quickly patted Kwame Brown on the back and signaled Kwame Brown to come on.
Kwame Brown looked very excited. He jumped to the technical table and then came on, replacing Noccioni.
After coming on the field, Kwame Brown did not convey Skiles' command to his teammates. In fact, at this time, Skiles could not do anything other than replace him with Kwame Brown to strengthen the defense inside.
Changed.
Kwame Brown walked directly to the inside and stood with Ilgauskas.
Seeing Kwame Brown taking the initiative to stand by Ilgauskas, Chandler walked to Gooden's side.
To be honest, playing against Gooden is definitely easier than playing against Ilgauskas, and Chandler feels a little more relaxed.
When Kwame Brown comes on the court, Chandler is actually liberated the most.
He can relieve Chandler a lot of pressure.
Griffin served a baseline ball, and Chris Duhon moved to ask for the ball. Griffin threw it high and gave the ball to Chris Duhon.
Chris Duhon caught the ball a little shaky, but Chris Duhon quickly controlled the basketball.
Although the Bulls seem to be in a mess now, Chris Duhon's ability will not be lost because of this.
After controlling the basketball, the attack time was only ten seconds. After Chris Duhon was ready to dribble the ball, he found a chance to shoot to end the attack.
But just as he was dribbling the ball near the three-point line, he suddenly saw Kwame Brown on the inside, who had just come on the court. He had already taken a position, and Kwame Brown was still reaching for the ball.
Originally, Chris Duhon would not be able to find another good opportunity in this attack. At this moment, seeing Kwame Brown asking for the ball, Chris Duhon naturally gave the ball directly to Kwame Brown.
Kwame Brown's catch was very stable. He successfully blocked Ilgauskas behind him and caught the basketball steadily. Then, Kwame Brown arched his butt and knocked Ilgauskas away.
Si poked his head back.
Ilgauskas has height, but to be honest, his physical fitness is really not as good as Kwame Brown.
With Kwame Brown firmly behind him, Ilgauskas could only rely on his height and long arms to affect Kwame Brown's shooting.
LeBron and other Cavaliers outside players still had some disdain for Kwame Brown, the former parallel draft pick, so they didn't come to help defend at all.
This gives Kwame Brown a lot of room.
Under the basket, everyone watched Kwame Brown play Ilgauskas in isolation.
After Kwame Brown poked his butt, he started dribbling. He squeezed in, trying to get closer to the basket.
I have to say that he is indeed stronger than Ilgauskas. After dribbling three times, he really had an effect and actually got much closer to the basket.
Seeing that the shooting distance was approaching, Kwame Brown stopped dribbling, hugged the basketball, and made a half-turn.
It looked like he was about to take a hook shot.
Ilgauskas understood that his opportunity had come. He gently stretched his body and didn't even take off. He just raised his center of gravity. He felt that this was enough to defend Kwame Brown's attack.
But unexpectedly, Kwame Brown's move turned out to be a fake move. Seeing Ilgauskas raise his body's center of gravity, Kwame Brown quickly turned around again and shot from the other side.
At this time, Ilgauskas had no time to react.
Kwame Brown made a small hook, the basketball wiped the board and entered the basket.
Kwame Brown actually succeeded in beating Ilgauskas in a single.
Many people find it a bit incredible.
The players in the credit center couldn't even believe their eyes.
Dare not immediately, they were relieved.
Maybe, this was just an accident, and Ilgauskas was a little underestimating the enemy.
Later, Kwame Brown will not have such an opportunity again. His performance may only be this one goal.
The Cavaliers' players on the court thought the same way, so they didn't take the ball seriously at all.
After all, even if the goal was scored, they still led by 11 points.
Moreover, the next ball is their opportunity to attack.
Momo dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, and Kwame Brown and Chandler stood guarding the basket.
Frank Williams, the Bulls player on the outside who was guarding Mo, knew that Mo was characterized by his excellent shooting. Although Mo had several successful layups just now, he still stubbornly defended Mo's shots.
, give Xiao Mo a chance to break through.
Of course, he also noticed that the Bulls' interior defense had increased in height and intensity at this moment, so Frank Williams was even more determined in his choice.
Xiao Mo actually still likes shooting.
However, seeing Frank Williams letting himself break through, Xiao Mo would not just shoot the ball competitively.
After all, as long as you score, shooting and breakthrough are so-called.
Xiao Mo dribbled the ball and used a fake shot to activate Frank, and then he dribbled the ball and broke through to the Bulls' interior.
He thought he would make easy layups like the previous times.
Imagining that his score would soon increase again, Xiao Mo felt very happy.
But this time, Xiao Mo miscalculated. He didn't expect that the Bulls' interior defense suddenly became stronger.
After all, he still somewhat ignored Kwame Brown's ability.
In fact, before Kwame Brown came to the Bulls, his interior defensive ability should not be underestimated.
It's so easy to play in the Bulls now, the atmosphere is so harmonious, and off the court, Kwame Brown has been holding it in for so long. How can he not release it when he's on the court?
Xiao Mo casually made a layup and was slapped out by Kwame Brown.
As soon as he came on the field, Kwame Brown hit a hook and blocked a shot. I have to say, his appearance was amazing.
The Cavaliers seemed a bit fooled by the changes made by Bulls coach Skiles.
The ball blocked by Mo Mo did not go out of bounds, but no one from the Cavaliers fought for the basketball. They watched helplessly as Duhong took the basketball that Kwame Brown fanned out, and then dribbled the ball up the court on a fast break.
Basket score.
The score difference suddenly reached nine points.
Skellsner's changes actually had a miraculous effect.
Paul Silas saw that the Cavaliers were fooled by a former parallel import No. 1 pick, and quickly called a timeout!

I'm going to take the eighth-level exam tomorrow, and I'm not feeling well and have a stomachache.
