After a 5-game losing streak, the in-form Hornets regained their momentum at home and ushered in the Challenge of the Bulls during their 2-game losing streak.
For the Hornets, Hayward was sidelined with an injury and Oubre was given the opportunity to start the game and try to help three goals + Bridges defend the home court and end the losing streak.
On the Bulls side, head coach Donovan made adjustments, Kobe White played the starting point guard, and the Bulls were also ready to win and do a lot on the road!
Finally, after four quarters of fighting, with a wave of 13-0 scoring climax, the Bulls, who were dominated by the guests, overpowered the Hornets in the first half and achieved a double-digit lead.
Although after returning from the second half, Bridges + three goals Ramello Ball felt hot in the third quarter, leading the Hornets to play several waves of counter-attack attacks, all the way to the score.
But at the end of the final showdown, DeRozan + Lavin began to exert strength, and the Bulls took advantage of the momentum, and a wave of streams took away the game, ending the Hornets' idea of trying to fight back.
In the end, the Bulls also won 121-109 on the road to the Hornets, which was worth the trip to win a 12-point victory at the same time, but also gave the opponent Hornets six consecutive losses!
In this game, the Bulls swept away the decline during the losing streak, playing a team performance with 4 people scoring in double figures and multi-point blossoming.
In the case of Kobe White + Green + Brown and other main players, each performing their duties, the joint cut of 63 + 12 DeRozan + Lavin, as well as the play of the interior gate Vucevic, is particularly critical!
DeRozan was very efficient in this game, starting 36 minutes, shooting nearly 70% of the 13-of-19 shooting, and even bombed a game-high 36 points, plus 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
Among them, in the second quarter, his brave performance of scoring 12 points in a single quarter not only helped the Bulls and smoothly opened the score gap, but also became an invincible presence for the Hornets!
In addition, in the case of DeRozan's outbreak, Lavin's play in this game is also indispensable.
In this campaign, Lavine fired 5 three-pointers and handed over 27 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, providing the Bulls with strong outside firepower and containment!
Of course, the Bulls were able to win big in this game, and the performance of the inside pillar Vucevic also played a crucial role.
In this game, Vucevic dominated the inside line, debuted 35 minutes, shot nearly 70% of the 13 shots, and contributed 18 points+ 15 rebounds + 8 assists + 3 blocks.
Rationally speaking, in this game with the Hornets' High Tabramli, Vucevic can be said to have completely defeated the opponent at both ends of the attack and defense, successfully affecting the trend of the game!
On the other hand, on the Hornets side, the team was completely suppressed in this game, and finally swallowed a 12-point defeat + 6 consecutive losses, which obviously needs to be examined.
But for the Hornets, this game, the team is not completely without highlights.
After all, in the case of the main players such as Bridges + Oubre + Rozier, the performance of The three-goal Lamelo Bauer in this game is indeed remarkable!
Lamelo Ball played well, starting 37 minutes, shooting 12 of 25 from the middle and outside lines and hitting five three-pointers, scoring a team-high 33 points, plus 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals.
Although it failed to help the Hornets guard the home court, there was a one-way, three-goal performance throughout the second half, and the heroic performance of single-handedly breaking through the level to score 24 points did bring great pressure and trouble to the Bulls!
Just in the face of the fiery state of the big three Lavin + DeRozan + Vucevic, as well as the huge gap in the strength and depth of the lineup, this campaign worked hard for a whole game, but the three goals that were difficult to support alone seemed to have no choice but to admit it.
