The Chicago Bulls tried to win a basketball game on Tuesday. Their hopes of doing so, however, were wiped out fairly quickly.
They welcomed the Strait pistons at the United Center for a confrontation of the central division which turned out to be a gap in a few minutes. Detroit scored the first three baskets of the match and it took less than seven minutes for the ball to be two figures. The pistons led by 16 after the first quarter, then opened the second on an absurd round of 33-4 to push this mentioned at 45 points.
Chicago scored a few token points in the last minutes of the frame, but the damage was more than made. The pistons won the first half by 42 points, 71-29, in what ended up being a 132-92 victory.
If you assumed that the margin of half-time was historic, you would be right. He is now tied for the seventh largest half-time deficit in Nba history. And if the pistons have kept their race a little longer, the Nba Record – Dallas Mavericks 77-27’s advance on the Los Angeles clippers on December 27, 2020 – was at hand. However, the pistons were able to establish a record for the biggest half-time advance.
On the other hand, he was tied for the biggest half-time deficit in the history of the Bulls, and the individual figures were just as surprising. The five most scores in first half were pistons, and the six most scores of the game as a whole also played for the pistons. It was, obviously, among the most embarrassing stretching of two quarters that the NBA has ever seen.
The horrible game of the Bulls has been postponed from the previous loss
Anyone can play badly for two quarters. And four?
Let’s go back on Saturday, when the Bulls, still at home, played against the Golden State Warriors. They led this match at halftime by 14 points, then opened the third quarter on an 8-0 race to push their advance to 22. However, when the final buzzer sounded, the Bulls lost 21, 132-111.
This means that they lost half of the 35-point basketball and immediately followed by losing the next half that they played by 42. Four of consecutive neighborhoods, the Chicago Bulls were therefore preceded by 77 points.
Although this four-quarter section represents two separate games, it would represent a more important score margin that any team has ever won in a single match, because this record belongs to the Grizzlies of Memphis 2020-20 Thunder of 73 points.
If you zoom even more, it gets worse for the Bulls. From the end of the 8-0 race of Chicago to open the third quarter against Golden State and ending at the time the round of the second trimester of Detroit struck on Tuesday 31-4, the Bulls had a section of basketball Uninterrupted ball in which they were dominated 144-56. Yikes.
What do the Bulls do? Another deadline for trade passes with Chicago who does not undertake to rebuild a complete reconstruction
Jasmine Wimbish
One of the worst stretching four -quarters of all time?
Bulls has worsened on the deadline for trade When they treated The top scorer Zach Lavine to the Kings of Sacramento, but they were in fact criticized for not having done enough to relaunch a reconstruction. Veterans like Coby White, Nikola Vacevic and Ayo Dosunmu, who were in variable frequency commercial rumors, were all kept and played in both losses. This was not a case of a reconstruction team sacrificing their bench at the altar of a few contenders either. Warriors and pistons have a combined file of 55-52.
It was, to put it simply, one of the worst four-quarter sections of basketball that any team has ever played. So how did it happen? There is no unique culprit. Bulls have had more difficulty everywhere.
The Bulls pull a lot of 3 points, and they missed them almost all in this section by going 7 for 41 from Deep. It is not as if their opponents had done all their own triplets. The pistons pulled only 7 out of 18 out of 3 in the first half on Tuesday. The Warriors were better at 11 out of 23 in the second period on Saturday, but it’s not even 50%. The Warriors and the pistons exceeded them from 61 to 35 in this section, while the Bulls committed six additional reversals. Surprisingly, the whistles were almost uniform of these four quarters. The Bulls took 25 free throws. The pistons and the Warriors combined for 26. Both, together, simply managed to surpass the Bulls of almost all the imaginable tracks through 48 minutes divided into two over three days.
The cherry on top for the bulls? They have to host the pistons again on Wednesday, so they can’t even escape their executioners. Fortunately, they will have the stars break to regroup after that.
