In the first quarter, Ben Wallace never got to face Chen Feng head-on. He replaced Roll Deng with Jefferson on the weak side, so the two had no direct conversations.

Even if two people sometimes meet together in order to control the rebound, there is no scene of one offense and one defense.

This is really not a fault with Wallace. He wanted to follow Chen Feng to the periphery, but Roll Deng was almost beaten by Jefferson. He wanted to leave the basket, so don't play this game.

Thanks to Wallace at the basket, Jefferson was not that crazy. If Roll Deng had defended Jefferson alone, he would have been beaten to death.

Skeles also realized this problem. He originally hoped that Roll Deng could be a scoring point in the inside and involve the opponent's inside energy, but unexpectedly it became the biggest scar on defense.

Not only could not withstand Jefferson, Wallace, who was also dragged down, could only take root at the basket and keep filling up for him, which also made Skeles give up the scoring point in the inside.

Giving up the plan to attack hard in the inside, because Skeles also saw that it was almost impossible for Roll Deng to fight against Jefferson, let alone him to fight against Chen Feng.

In the first quarter, Skeles also gave Roll Deng enough chance to hold the ball in the inside, but this guy either missed the shot or was held down by his opponent while behind his back.

This is not that Roll Deng doesn't want to play singles with the ball. He really can't squeeze out Jefferson behind him. And once again, when Chen Feng defended him alone, the treatment of this guy is even more tragic.

Originally, Du Hong passed him well, as long as he had a more flexible footstep, he could face the basket directly with just one turn. Luo Er Deng's mid-range distance was still a bit threatening.

But even Roll Deng couldn't do such a simple turn action. He wanted to lean on Chen Feng and use his feet to make a shaft, but Chen Feng pressed him tightly, and the tense muscles put pressure on him at all times.

After about a few seconds of stalemate, Roll Deng failed to win the space to take action without exerting force. In the end, there was no way, so he could only hand over the ball back to Du Hong to solve the problem.

This made Skeles watch on the sidelines and almost threw things away. An inside attacker who is usually very useful was actually suppressed, and he was pressed tightly by his opponent.

Not to mention the offensive efficiency, even scoring is a luxury. This is probably the most depressing quarter that Roll Deng has played this season. He has never gained any chance to play comfortably.

The offense is inefficient, the rebounds are not guaranteed, and the defense is even more accurate by the opponent. If Wallace had not made up for defense, Jefferson's score would have been in double digits long ago.

Skeles tried for a whole quarter, but didn't see how good Roll Deng had made, so he simply replaced him with PJ Brown. Since the attack was not smooth, he started to defend with all his strength.

Anyway, the Bulls' inside line has never been opened up in the whole first quarter, and the scoring is basically based on the firepower of the outside world. Roll Deng is like this grandma, and Skeles doesn't have much expectations.

Since you can't catch it, then defend it. Anyway, both sides have to take care of each other. You can't say that there is no score. The defense will be defeated by the opponent. Then Skeles has to open his suit and curse on the sidelines.

Replaced Roll Deng, although Skeles was a little angry when he looked at the guy's dejected expression, for the sake of the game and to ensure his home record, he could only let this kid go on the bench for a while.

PJ Brown is already an old man in the NBA league. His offensive ability is no longer as good as before, but his low-post ability can still create a certain amount of lethality.

Moreover, PJ Brown has been struggling in the league for so many years, and his other abilities may be average, but his basketball IQ has never been low. The word "old" is really appropriate to describe him.

After all, it's more useful than Roll Deng. If this guy wasn't too old, Skyles would have the idea to let him serve as the starter. After all, there is an old family, like a treasure.

Moreover, what Skyles valued PJ Brown the most was the old guy's defense, not only a matter of ability, but also an attitude. As a second-round pick that year, Brown was definitely considered conscientious.

I guess it was because of your second round pick that you didn’t work harder, and you wouldn’t be able to stand firm in NBA.

So when PJ Brown did not perform particularly surprisingly on the offense, he could be said to be very tough on the defensive end.

In addition to being a swinger in the center and power forward position, this guy also has a sense of courage. No matter who he faces, he dares to rush forward.

After escorting O'Neal and fighting against the "Admiral", anyway, the group of inside experts in the most golden age of the league have had face-to-face dealings.

In terms of experience, except for Wallace who can compare the advantages and disadvantages of experience with PJ Brown, the rest of the people must be from the younger generation.

Even after the "Big Ben" who has the best defense in the NBA, Skeles did not throw PJ Brown aside. At the critical moment, he trusted such a gate responsible for guarding the inside.

Before the start of the season, what he paid the most was not how much Simrich's scoring ability had increased, but whether PJ Brown's health could last the whole season.

PJ Brown is indeed no longer youthful, but his strong style is becoming more and more experienced. When there is a possibility of a collapse in the inside, Skeles needs this old guy to withstand Jefferson's increasingly fierce offensive momentum.

Moreover, the biggest purpose of Skeles' arrangement is to let Wallace be freed from the fact that he no longer has to make up the holes for Roll Deng, and he can concentrate on dealing with the bald wild boy.

Jefferson was very strong in the first quarter, but what Skeles cared about the most was the No. 99 who ran in and out, the bald wild boy who just made trouble for others just because he had nothing to do.

The Bulls played very smoothly in the first quarter, but this wild boy suddenly came out, which directly disrupted the rhythm of the Chicago people, and indirectly made the Bulls lose the sense of rhythm they should have.

If we look at the previous home games, if the Bulls play crazy in the opening stage, then the outcome of the game will begin to tilt towards them.

But it was just such a fool who came out of the stalker that disrupted the Bulls' momentum of continuing offensive firepower. With his cover, Rondo also had a rise in killing.

Originally, Skeles never regarded Rondo as a fixed scoring point for the Celtics, but because Chen Feng made a wall for him, not only curbed Du Hong's harassment, but also allowed Rondo to successfully cut in continuously.

Let that kid get so many points! This made Skeles very annoyed. The Celtics were able to chase points like this because Rondo had fought so hard, so the Bulls began to be passive.

Skeles has been thinking about how to nail the guy who suddenly came out to make trouble. He doesn't want to be messed up by the wild boy who is out of this situation.

The Bulls can lose to strong teams such as the Suns or the Heat, but if they can't even handle the Celtics who just squeezed into the top eight, and they are still at home, then he doesn't have to expect to be the king of the playoffs.

People like Skeles are just thinking of the truth. As long as he thinks that the situation is bad, he must find a way to get it back, otherwise this guy will definitely be unable to sleep or eat.

"Stay at him! Don't let him mess up our defense and offense!" This is the important task that Skeles gave Wallace before the start of the second quarter.

With PJ Brown at the basket, Wallace, finally freed up his hand. The "Big Ben" who has experienced two finals baptisms is not only experienced, but also quite strong.

Now Skeles is going to use this best defensive inside to curb the bald wild boy.

But Rivers and Chen Feng didn't know that Skeles had already targeted him, but Chen Feng hadn't noticed it until the first time he collided head-on.

Originally, Chen Feng had just pulled him to the outside and wanted to be a mobile shield for Rondo again, but Wallace had already pushed him behind him. The strong guy was pursuing close-fitting fighting, which caught Chen Feng off guard.

He didn't meet the whole first quarter, which made Chen Feng a little careless. As a result, he was at a disadvantage in such a close-fitting fight. If Rondo wanted to go around, then wait to hit Wallace's big body.

Rondo, who was just about to speed up, was forced to brake this time, and the pick-and-roll that Chen Feng made for him was also squeezed away by Wallace. The big guy opened his hands and blocked Rondo's way.

Thanks to Rondo's reaction was fast enough, he didn't plunge into Wallace's arms, but Sinrich's reaction was a beat slower, and he failed to block Rondo's passing route in time, allowing the guy to calmly send it.

Tony Allen, who was waiting in the empty space at the baseline, received the ball and took the action. Ben Gordon, who rushed over to block the shot, could only passively listen to the sound of the basketball wiping the net.

Three-pointer! At the beginning of the second quarter, the Celtics surpassed the score on the field in this way.

The Celtics made a three-pointer, which was the first time the Celtics took the lead after the opening. Although there were not many, at least they reversed the previous unfavorable situation.

However, Rivers was always staring at Wallace on the sidelines. He frowned slightly. It was a bit unexpected that a big guy came over like this.

I thought the Bulls replaced PJ Brown to increase the defensive intensity of the inside, but I didn't expect that Skeles planned to use Wallace to mark Chen Feng.

This was not only Rivers didn't expect, but Thibodeau was also a little surprised. After all, in terms of defensive efficiency alone, Wallace must be more effective at standing at the basket than PJ Brown.

But Skeles played against the Celtics. It cannot be said that he valued Chen Feng, but he didn't want people to disrupt the Bulls' tactical arrangements.

Instead of giving Chen Feng the opportunity to move freely, it would be better to go out and Wallace and press the kid firmly to death on the field, so that he would not move easily.

The Celtics led by two points, but soon Sinrich responded with a mid-range jump shot from Rondo's head, and he steadily sent the ball into the basket.

In fact, Sinrich's phone is a bit risky. Rondo had posted it at that time, but just as Rondo tried to interfere with the other side, Wallace blocked him from the other side.

With such a vacant move, Hinrich naturally would not let him go. He felt hot from the beginning. Now, even though he played the temporary guest point guard, this guy's score was still the highest among the Bulls.

The opponent was not stuck and Hinrich scored in the middle distance, which made Rondo a little annoyed, but he was not the one who frowned. Chen Feng, who was standing behind Wallace, was actually even more depressed.

Originally, Rondo had faced Sinrich, but he didn't plan to save him and help, but was just guarding against his opponent not to deceive Rondo with fake moves, and then cut in from the outside.

But Chen Feng didn't make any moves, but Wallace moved. A simple cover caused Sinrich's score. The two of them actually had no communication during the offense, and it was completely instinct.

"In the years Wallace's years with the Pistons, in addition to being the best defensive player, his understanding of tactics was much better than before. I have to say that Larry Brown is definitely a great guy."

Looking at Wallace's successful cover, Rivers whispered a few words to Thibodeau. He didn't yell at his players because Rivers knew what kind of player Wallace was.

"That little guy has met an opponent. This is not the same type as the opponent he has encountered before."

Thibodeau obviously cared more. After all, Chen Feng was trained by him. The strong big guy on the opposite side had taken the initiative in front of that wild boy twice in a row.

The first time was to destroy the pick-and-roll cover between Rondo and Chen Feng. It was purely to squeeze a gap with force, and then cut off their cooperation that had been playing very smoothly before.

Then this shook Chen Feng away from the offensive end and made a beautiful cover. Although it was not as violent as Chen Feng had done before, this kind of cover was enough.

Rivers and Thibodeau could feel that although Chen Feng did not show any special emotions, the kid must be holding on to his energy now.

Chen Feng has never suffered such a loss. He has attacked and defended one after another. In both opportunities, Wallace made an attempt to interfere with him.

It is obvious that the kid will definitely have to hit the opponent one by one. Although Rivers wanted to remind Chen Feng on the sidelines, that guy's action was obviously faster than Rivers's idea.

"Give it to me!" When Rondo had just passed halfway through the ball, Chen Feng had signaled him to pass the ball. At this moment, he was competing for the position with Wallace near the three-second zone.

Chen Feng has few friends who can compete with him for pure power, but today he meets someone who is like himself, with no fancy moves, just pure physical confrontation.

Rondo also watched Chen Feng ask for the ball with his hand, and also saw Wallace pushing his arm behind him.

This is not like Rondo usually transports shells to Chen Feng. If it were normal, Chen Feng would probably have squeezed out the opponent and occupied a favorable position. As long as he sent it over, he would have a chance to score.

But this time Chen Feng did not get a good position. The confrontation between him and Wallace was like a bull, with a stalemate near the three-second zone.

However, with Sinrich around him staring at him like a fly, Gordon also stuck to Pierce like a plaster. Rondo had no choice but to hand the ball to Chen Feng when he failed to make a breakthrough.

This is not a good offensive opportunity, but after Chen Feng received the ball, he seemed to have no concern about the same strong guy behind him. He turned his steps and was about to turn around and get on.

Even Chen Feng didn't wait for him to completely face the basket, and his hand holding the ball was already raised high, as if he was ready to press down on Wallace.

Stepping on the line in the three-second zone, just at this distance, Chen Feng was about to force Wallace. It was a kind of indomitable momentum, and many people were waiting to hear a "clang".

But after a second, the roar did not sound, only the basket was swaying very rippling, and everyone watched the basketball smash hard on the basket and flew far away.

Chen Feng's right hand was holding the basket, but this time he only held the basket down. The ball was thrown by Gordon, who was running forward at high speed, and Nosioni was slammed at the basket.

The Argentinian's slam dunk was not beautiful, but it was enough to overtake the score again, and this guy's score made the short-silent United Center burst into tsunami-like shouts again.

Of course, most of the roars here were not given to Nosioni, but to another person.

"Ben!!! Wallace!!!", this roar almost made people feel deaf.

But no one was tired of the roar of DJ on the scene, and the fans responded to this roar, and the entire United Center Arena burst into pieces in an instant.

Even Skeles stood on the sidelines very rarely, slapped Wallace's palm, and patted the opponent's thick big body, indicating that the opponent would do it beautifully this time!

Since the day Wallace came to Chicago, he has not been worshipped by so many people, but at the moment just now, he filled the entire Union Center with cheers for himself.

It was really good. Many people watched Chen Feng take a step and grab the basketball and go to the basket. Bulls supporters thought that the bald boy would get one.

As a result, just as Chen Feng rose to the ground, his hand was almost grabbing the basketball and pressing it into the basket, but suddenly a big hand appeared behind him, pulling it hard from behind on the basketball!

The original downward movement of the powerful force of Qianjun was pulled away. Chen Feng grabbed the basketball hand and deviated from the course. Although he did not fly out, he did not fill it in, but instead smashed it hard on the basket.

The basketball was knocked out by Chen Feng's hand and the power exerted by Wallace, which directly caused a counterattack from the Bulls and overtook the score that had just tied.

The score was not what Skyles valued the most. What he cared more about was Wallace's defense. The fierce chasing hat directly interrupted the boy's tyrannical blow.

Wallace did not beat his chest and roared, but just tightened the muscles on his arms and waved at Chen Feng, "Come on again, I know you must be unwilling to accept it now."

A dull voice sounded beside Chen Feng's ears. As soon as this sentence came out, Chen Feng had no expression on the other side. After hearing this sentence, he directly tilted his head and looked at Wallace.

Chen Feng knew very well how powerful the big guy in front of him was, just like the fierce chasing hat just now, this was an encounter.
Chapter completed!
