When DeRozan played back-to-back games, two consecutive days of whistle-pressing three-point kills, he helped the Bulls win 7 consecutive games, continue to push the Nets to lead the East, the Pacers and Wizards have become DeRozan's "knife ghosts". DeRough favored being the first player in NBA history to do so, and Bulls acting coach Chris Fleming revealed the details of DeRozan's magical whistle-pressing three-point kill, that is, DeRozan had shot a three-point total in the past, and today he looked down to make sure he didn't step on the line before shooting a key three-point kill.
The victor not only allowed the Bulls to extend their current winning streak to seven games, but also improved their season record to 24 wins and 10 losses to finish first in the East, which also marked the first time in NBA history that a player completed a whistle-blowing three-point kill in back-to-back games.
Big Bird Larry Bird has done this in two consecutive games, but there are time intervals between those two games. Only DeRozan did it in two days of back-to-back.
"I don't know, I don't know if I'm dreaming or if it's real now. But it's something you work, and you understand that when you're in these positions, you're trying to do it in the best possible way. Because you're going to have some races, you're going to miss some races, but you're willing to step up and be ready for it when you need to, and that's all you can do. DeRozan said so.
Bulls acting head coach Chris Fleming was also a bit incredulous. "DeRozan hit a three-point shot again, which is unbelievable," Fleming said. "It's kind of funny, I always say he's a better three-point shooter than people think, but oddly enough, he's always cautious and he's always stepped on the line when shooting three-point shots in the past."
But tonight was different, Fleming said, "with three seconds left in the game, everyone else was keeping a tight eye on him, and he still had the heart to look at the floor to see where his foot should be shooting to make sure he didn't step on the line, which was an incredible fatal blow." ”
For DeRozan, this is just the latest in a series of heroic deeds, he is ahead of the NBA in scoring in the fourth quarter of the season (he is fifth in the NBA in points per game), and now that his three-point shooting rate is at a career-high 37.3%, there is no doubt that he should be in the discussion of the regular season MVP.
