In this season's NBA league, the Chicago Bulls once topped the Eastern Conference standings with excellent overall performance, and were also regarded by many fans as the biggest spoiler of the playoffs, but as the season deepened, they exposed a very big problem, that is, they performed too poorly against strong opponents, which is also the reason for their decline in rankings, and for the current Bulls, if they can't stop the decline in time, It's even possible to have to compete for a playoff spot in the playoffs after the regular season is over, which is obviously an outcome they don't want to see!
In this regular season, the Bulls encountered the Clippers, who had just welcomed back the big general Paul George in the last game, and staged a reversal of the game in the case of a big score behind, once again let the fans see the strength of the king of the league reversal, but in this game, the Clippers showed a strong fighting force at the beginning, and established a double-digit advantage early, the Bulls launched a strong counterattack under the leadership of DeRozan, although the regular season time penalty was not able to kill the Clippers, In extra time, Cedrozan scored 10 points and led the team to a thrilling reversal of the opponent 135-130!
DeRozan, who joined the team in the new season, has become the Bulls' most reliant star on the offensive end, this campaign against the Clippers, Azan still maintained his consistent stable play, in the 43.2 minutes of his appearance, 26 shots hit 17 goals, including even the not very good three-pointers also shot 2 of 2 highlight performance, the whole game cut 50 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, the fourth quarter final moments to create a three-point foul, and in the overtime play, led the team to seal the win.
However, the poor performance of the other two core Lavin and Vucevic made DeRo approve of the recent poor performance of LaVine for the lone hero, this campaign is still not in the best state, only 5 of 17 shots scored 21 points, and Vucevic although cut 22 points, 14 rebounds and 1 assist double-double data, but his personal offensive efficiency is not high, 19 shots only hit 9 goals, the two of them are not offensively efficient, but also the reason why the team won very difficult.
Paul George, who scored 34 points in the first game of the return game, did not feel good about shooting, played in 32 minutes and hit 7 goals in 20 shots, only got 22 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals, and also made 5 mistakes, but in the final moments of the fourth quarter, Paul George's foul buried the team's almost victory.
In addition to Paul George, the Clippers had six players scored in double figures, of which King Gigi became the knife guard next to the General, shooting 6 of 9 from outside the three-point line in the whole game, cutting a team-high 34 points, in addition to 2 rebounds and 7 assists of the personal data, and Morris Jr. also found a long-lost feel, 7 of 12 shots with 20 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, which is also the key to their ability to maintain the suspense of the game to the end.
Although the king of this game reversal was reversed tragically, but before the return of Paul George, the Clippers' outstanding performance has won the recognition of fans, the huge progress of role players, but also the reason why their prospects for the championship are optimistic, now the fans are most concerned about when Leonard can return to the field, I believe that after the combination of Pepper, the Clippers will become the biggest favorite of the championship!
