Chapter 767
"Beep!"
The 76ers hurriedly call a timeout.
As a strong team second in the East.
They are also very eager to win tonight, to beat the defending champion, the Eastern Conference leader this season, and the Bulls who have won 29 games in a row.
The starters come up early.
"We'll put the starters in too, don't give the 76ers any chance!"
On the Bulls' bench.
Su Yan says.
He rarely speaks up like this, basically listening to the coach's arrangements.
So saying this means... Su Yan is really very eager for victory.
"Okay!"
Yao is the first to agree.
"Must take it tonight!"
Pippen also responds with a grave expression.
"Good."
Coach Skiles also nods heavily, "A 30-game winning streak is very rare for any team.
Tonight is a perfect opportunity, we cannot miss such a good opportunity.
We must win the game.
After returning from the timeout, the starters go back, and the decisive moment sounds early.
However... if anyone feels they haven't rested enough or their condition isn't good, let me know in time, and I will replace you immediately to give you rest time.
After all.
Only with good rest can you play the best offense on the court."
"Understood."
"Yes, coach!"
The players' fighting spirit is extremely high.
Su Yan's desire to win and the 11-point lead make the entire Bulls team full of confidence in winning the game.
Of course.
Confidence alone is not enough.
It also requires absolute strength to support this confidence, to realistically beat the Philadelphia 76ers, who have the "double four great shooting guards."
In the CCTV-5 studio.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Wang Meng clicks his tongue in marvel, "This game is too good to watch, it really is just like what Teacher Zhang said.
An ordinary regular-season game is played like an All-Star exhibition game.
It makes people's hearts surge, and they can't help but applaud.
However... the game comes to the final quarter.
I believe both teams will bring out the strongest offense and defense to win the game, to win this Eastern Conference Finals preview that both sides are extremely eager to win."
"That's right."
Teacher Zhang nods with a smile, then says, "Now the deficit is 11 points, and the 76ers have considerable score pressure.
And when the final moment arrives.
When Su Yan follows up with defense and brings out "Full-Power Su" mode, the offensive efficiency of the 76ers' backcourt duo will definitely be affected.
Under such circumstances, how the 76ers maximize the offense of the backcourt duo is a problem.
Uh...
To put it more bluntly.
The two must avoid Su Yan to attack.
And cannot willfully attack against Su Yan, otherwise... even if they are one of the four great shooting guards with both strength and popularity.
Su Yan will definitely lock them down firmly.
Then the 76ers' defeat is destined."
Teacher Zhang's analysis is very correct.
Returning from the timeout.
After the decisive moment begins.
Su Yan's defensive intensity rises sharply; whether facing Iverson or McGrady, he presents his DPOY-level defense.
Whether it's Iverson's crossover or McGrady's pull-up, these are all under the insight of Su Yan's Eye of the Heavenly Emperor.
All have nowhere to hide.
1-on-1.
Both have a hard time scoring on Su Yan.
However... after a few possessions, Iverson and McGrady, knowing they can't attack Su Yan, all take the advice.
Both avoid Su Yan to attack.
Although they don't attack as smoothly as at the beginning, at least they can get offensive opportunities.
Because they are attacking Bulls players other than Su Yan, even if the offensive opportunity isn't particularly good.
Maybe the timing of the catch isn't exquisite enough.
But fortunately, they can attack.
The efficiency is also okay.
And on the Bulls' side, because of the transformation of the role players, the 76ers don't dare to double-team Su Yan too crazily.
Besides.
The two simply can't limit Su Yan's offense.
This also means that while Su Yan is exerting effort on the defensive end, he is also showing his talent and ability on the offensive end.
Can't stop him.
The 76ers can't stop Su Yan, nor can they limit Su Yan's role on the team.
Su Yan always possesses the ability to influence the game.
Then under such circumstances.
The two teams still look like they are exploding offensively, and the watchability of the game is still very strong and exciting.
However.
The deficit is widening bit by bit.
Not much, one point, two points, three points; after playing for several minutes, the deficit only increased by three points.
Little?!
Theoretically, it is little.
But you have to know that the Bulls had an 11-point lead at the beginning, so adding those three points makes it a full 14 points.
There is less than half a quarter left.
Philadelphia's pressure is greater.
At this time, a superstar needs to stand up and score to save the team from deep water.
This means... under such circumstances.
Iverson and McGrady must play more aggressively, must force an attack even when facing Su Yan's defense, and finish the offense as much as possible.
To revitalize the team's morale.
Next is the superstar's time.
As a result... when Su Yan defends Iverson, he steals his crossover head-on.
Immediately after... when facing McGrady, he first strips his pull-up.
Then the next possession, when McGrady drives to the basket, he chases him down and delivers a chase-down block, sealing his layup.
Philadelphia's "double four great shooting guards," when facing Su Yan's defense, always feel like a ruthless big hand is always hovering over their heads.
Making them feel suffocated, making them unable to attack.
This is the powerful defense under Su Yan's "Eye of the Heavenly Emperor."
