Chapter 951 Unfavorable Start
I've "died" countless times, and when I've been challenged, I've been born again.When I'm not challenged, my soul rots with it.This is the most important challenge of my life, and now I still have time to make this story great. ——Written by Bai Jidong on the evening of May 2017, 5.

Location: United Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Background: In the first four games of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls and Cavaliers were tied.

Normally, Bai Jidong would wake up between six and seven o'clock, but today, he slept until eight o'clock.

"It's been a long time since I slept so full." Bai Jidong rubbed his eyes, saying goodbye was playing ball under the bed.

Bai Jidong got up from the bed, folded the quilt, put on slippers and walked to the bathroom.

After simply washing up, looking back, Bai Jidong saw the breakfast that Chu Meng had prepared for him.

On closer inspection, there was a note for breakfast.

"Go out after eating, and we will go to the scene to cheer for you at night."

Bai Jidong put away the note, and then enjoyed the breakfast left by Chu Meng.

That night, the United Center was flooded with countless spectators, and they wanted to witness the result of the battle together.

The Bulls and the Cavaliers have always been sworn enemies. Jordan shot the famous "The Shot" on their heads back then, and wrote a legendary chapter on this.

It can be said that the Cavaliers are the first NBA team to witness Jordan's greatness.

The grievances between the two teams have continued since then, and this irresolvable grievance will never disappear because of the retirement of the players at that time. It has been passed down from generation to generation and has been passed down to this day.

Now it is the playoffs again, the two teams are fighting fiercely in front of the finals for the only ticket to the finals, the grievances of the year have been brought to the fore, and the first four confrontations each added new scars to each other.

The Bulls have an advantage inside, and the opening jump ball is another chance for Robin Lopez to win the first attack for the Bulls.

Bai Jidong first saw James' position, and then it was Butu's pick-and-roll.

The pick-and-roll cooperation between the two has played a lot in the previous four games, and the Cavaliers have long been prepared for this. Even if the space is squeezed, let alone passing, it is difficult for Butu to go inside.

"If you think we will continue to let you play like that, then you underestimate us." James said confidently.

Bai Jidong said: "Underestimate? I have never underestimated you."

As soon as the words fell, Jimmy Butler ran out from nowhere. JR Smith, who was supposed to be defending him, was caught by Lopez's screen and lost his heel. Bai Jidong passed the ball.

The first ball in the opening game had a good chance. Butler jumped up and shot, but the touch didn't come. Such a good chance only got a good iron.

The Cavaliers put away the rebounds and launched a quick counterattack.

James is in the front, and the rest are distributed around, participating in the counterattack together.

The timely recovery of Bai Jidong and Vashabek prevented the knight's counterattack from being successful.

If the counterattack fails, the two sides can only fight on the ground.

James was calm and relaxed, as if the development of the situation was under his control, and no matter what happened, he could not escape his grasp.

Bai Jidong just stood there, controlled his breath, and planned how the knight would attack next.

The two games the Cavaliers won before were nothing more than breaking down their penalty area. If James' breakthrough can be restricted, the penalty area will have no worries.

Although the Cavaliers have a strong lineup, only James has the ability to attack the penalty area and cause continuous damage. Others, such as Irving, have a strong finishing ability.

Bai Jidong noticed that Loew took a high position to cover for others, while James controlled the scene, but remained on the sidelines.

"It seems that you dare not attack in front of me."

Bai Jidong took the initiative to provoke James.

James ignored Bai Jidong, as if he was waiting for something.

Suddenly, outside the arc top three-point line, Love got a wide open, which is terrible, Love's three-point shooting ability is comparable to a shooter.

Just as Bai Jidong was about to sound a reminder, James had already passed the ball, Love made a three-pointer, and the goal was scored.

"It's not that I don't dare, it's that I don't need it, I don't need it, if my teammates can knock you down, why should I do it?" James said proudly.

"The Cavaliers played at ease. They didn't have the urgency of the Tianwangshan battle in the conference finals. But the Bulls were a bit tight, even the White Wolf. They need to adjust their mentality. Now is not the time to be nervous." The commentator sent by ESPN is Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy.

The two have one thing in common, that is, they both have NBA coaching experience, and Jackson was also a very good player in his player era.

Van Gundy's explanation for this is: "The feeling is different after all. This is not Minnesota, not the experienced team. Although the White Wolf has played here, he needs time to find that feeling."

As soon as Van Gundy's words fell, Bai Jidong suddenly launched a fast break. With only one face-to-face, James was broken through, and the Cavaliers' defense line was narrowed.In order to restrain Bai Jidong, they dispatched three people.

"Ponu!"

Bai Jidong yelled and passed the ball.

Vashabek waited for a long time, and as soon as he got the ball, he made a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

"LeBron, I don't need to shoot anymore." Bai Jidong said.

James ran straight across the half court, and just as he was about to get stuck, Bai Jidong's trash talk came over again: "It's been so many years, and your style is still the same as back then."

"You really are getting more and more verbose as you get older." James replied to Bai Jidong.

The confrontation between the two is in full swing, and Owen first decides how the ball will be played.

Loew and Butu have a fierce relationship, and the two have formed a relationship since the beginning of the series. At this time, there is an inexplicable smell of gunpowder surrounding them.

"I can't see that you have such a manly side. I thought you could only shoot a fucking three-pointer and block shots with your eyes." Butu's words were very aimed at Loew.

Love really wants to be kind to others, but this guy is too annoying, and he has exceeded the limit of his tolerance for bastards, so the only way is to confront him head-on and let him know how powerful he is.

Butu didn't expect Loew to be so tough this time, to confront him head-on.

As the saying goes, a dog jumps over a wall in a hurry, and the power of Loew's collision knocked Butu away.

To get into a favorable offensive position, turn over and straighten your arms to hook your hands and hit the cricket.

"If no one teaches you what respect is, then let me teach you well." Lu Fu has a bodhisattva heart and thinks that Butu can still be saved.

Unexpectedly, Butu not only didn't appreciate it, but looked at him with extreme disgust: "You teach me?"

This look, as if heard the most disgusting thing in the world.

Love doesn't understand this. He is also a strange man who scored 30+30 in a single game. What's so great about you, how dare you look down on me?You claim to be good at rebounding, can you hit 30+30?
"If one day I need you to teach me something, I will definitely find a wall and crash it to death before it happens." Butu said this without leaving any room, and Loew's face was swollen with anger.

Bai Jidong looked at Butu angrily, what about this kid?Is Love just falsely reporting his height, mediocre physical fitness, mediocre athletic ability, poor defense, and likes to let the opponent shoot and shrink the basket to pick up rebounds?Why are you so bitter and bitter?

The Bulls' offense has stagnated, and the outside transfer of the ball is smooth, but there is no touch on the outside.

Except for Vashabek's three-pointer in the opening game, the Bulls ushered in an embarrassing period of zero points in 3 minutes.

Bai Jidong, Butler, and Vashabek showed "one hundred ways to crook the basket" in public.

"Duang!"

Bai Jidong raised his hand to score a three-pointer, and hit the iron again. This was the third time he hit the iron in a row.

James grabbed the long rebound and launched a fast break in a hurry, with amazing speed.

Even though Bai Jidong was able to keep up with him, it was difficult to stop him from going deep into the penalty area. The referee caught the last shot, the whistle blew first, and then James scored the ball again, a standard three-pointer.

"White Wolf, are you trying to break the basket tonight?"

James is in a good mood. The quarter is not over. They have already led by 12 points. If they make additional penalties, it will be 13 points.

There are 4 minutes left in the first quarter. Although the situation is critical, Hoiberg still adjusted his personnel according to the regular rotation.

Bai Jidong and Butler rested, and Wade Carter played at the same time.

When playing, Wade and James exchanged a few words.

Bai alreadydong took the towel from his teammates, adjusted his breathing, and thought about the upcoming game.

"White Wolf looks sullen," Jackson said.

Van Gundy also glanced at Bai Jidong who was on the bench, "It's normal, he got off to a bad start, if this goes on, Cleveland will turn the tables."

Wade and Carter showed the role of veterans.

As the veterans who hold the lineup, Wade and Carter performed well on the court.

Carter first, a purely tactical three-point opportunity appeared to him, he took the ball and shot, and hit a three-pointer.

"Strike!" Butu yelled.

Carter waved his hand and signaled his teammates not to get excited, and better balls were ahead.

Then there is Wade, if there is no Bai Jidong, his strength can be used as a starter.

Bai Jidong shortened his playing time, but it also made him play more efficiently.

James and Wade are like brothers and have worked together for four years. Naturally, he knows what state Wade is in now.

Wade and Carter recovered 5 points for the Bulls, but they also have unsolvable flaws, that is, defense.

No matter how strong the experience and awareness are, vitality is needed, and what the old man lacks most is vitality.

The Cavaliers saw through Wade and Carter, and started a targeted attack. On both sides, you had one ball and the other. The point difference was stuck at 8 points, and it was not narrowed or expanded until the end of the first quarter.

"Good fight!"

Bai Weidong got up to greet his teammates who were taking a break, and stood beside Hoiberg to listen to his orders.

In the second quarter, Hoiberg continued to let Bai Jidong rest, and resolutely waited until the rotation time was up before changing players.

Bai Jidong repeatedly reiterated that there is no problem with his physical fitness, but Hoiberg just refused to listen.

Too conservative, Bai Jidong sighed secretly.

Seeing that the team is 8 points behind but can only sit and watch from the sidelines, Bai Jidong has not experienced such an experience for a long time. Hoiberg is the most conservative coach he has met in more than ten years.
