Chapter 770 [First in the strength list, the first battle with the old club]
The 2010-2011 schedule has been announced, and espn invited an expert team to analyze the strength of each team.∷∷,
In the official strength list released in the first issue, the Kings ranked first, second was the Lakers, followed by the Spurs, Celtics, Mavericks, Bucks, etc.
The Bulls were once again underestimated, only ranked 16th, barely reaching the playoffs level in the Eastern Conference.
The Bulls' lineup has not changed much. Xia Tian only renewed his contract with David Lee and Lowry, who introduced the Jazz, Ronnie Brewer, and Bogans of the Magic, are all blue-collar players. Lewis's condition has been very strong, Oden's return is average after he is reimbursed, and Thibodeau began to train Lowry as the core.
The Kings ranked first, and the defending champion Lakers were the first to dissatisfied.
Kobe was confident after two championships and said in an interview: "If the Kings want to win the championship, they must pass the Lakers level. I don't think they are invincible."
Wang Jun was even more arrogant when facing reporters. "Defend the Lakers? No, no, that's not my goal. We will sweep the Lakers in the playoffs, and losing a game will be my failure."
Both sides are in the Pacific region and will play four games in the regular season, which is full of gunpowder.
The defending champion Lakers made their debut first. This year's game started early, and October 26th was the first game.
The opening game was unpopular, and the Lakers lost to the Rockets 106-110 at home.
Kaman returns and partner with Scola in the inside, and Ariza, Gordon, and Brooks can all shoot three-pointers on the outside. Substitutes Badinger, Hayes, Bathir, Staggie, Jordan Hill and others are also very strong.
The new coach Mike Hale gave Rockets fans a surprise in the first game, trailing 17 points in the first half and completing the reversal in the second half.
The Lakers' lineup has not changed much this season. After leaving Vujasic and Famal, they introduced Steve Blake, veteran Starkhouse, and Ebanks, they are not weak.
In the focus match of the Eastern Conference, the Celtics defeated the Heat, whose lineup was upgraded at home. New player Martin made 5 of 8 three-pointers, made 7 of 13 shots in the game, 1 of 1 free throws, and scored 20 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
This made the Celtics fans very happy, thinking that Martin could perfectly replace Ray Allen, younger and promising.
The Kings and the Bulls were put on the second day, with a full gimmick. Should Wang Jun win the game against his old club? Or was he defeated by the Bulls?
Stern is very bad, and he doesn't forget to disgust Wang Jun when making money, James will do it.
It is certain that Wang Jun was booed. The Kings' opponent in the second game was the Cavaliers, and fans would also booed James. The Kings' third game was still away, and the opponent was the Nets.
If Wang Jun leads the team to slaughter the Bulls, it will definitely attract attention and will be on the headlines. Regardless of the result, the league will be the biggest winner.
Stern hopes that the NBA will attract fans to the greatest extent, attract fans, and attract the attention of the world. Because after the end of this season, it is time for the agreement to expire again. Labor-management negotiations will cause headaches for everyone every time. If the negotiations cannot be reached, the suspension of 1998 may occur.
Many players are dissatisfied with their salaries, and their bosses say they are not making money. There are more and more bosses selling teams, and the economic crisis has not yet passed. The league needs stars to stand up and perform, attract fans, and overcome difficulties.
Three days before the game began, the whole United States was building momentum.
Wang Jun's former teammates were interviewed, and what made the Bulls management depressed was that even if Wang Jun left, his old teammates did not say bad things about him.
Lewis said: "You can't refuse Wang Jun. He can fight the victory or defeat on his shoulders. Sometimes he wins the game with his personal ability. The Bulls can establish a dynasty for three consecutive championships. Everyone knows that he is the only core, and it won't be possible without him."
"I'm sorry for being teammates with him for only a few months, if he stays with the Bulls, we'll win the championship," Lowry said.
David Lee just renewed his contract with a salary of tens of millions, and he seemed very unconfident. "It's hard for us to win this game. I just hope he will show mercy and never score five or sixty points at our home court. Wang, we are good brothers, right? If you are brothers, don't forget what I said."
The Chicago reporter was speechless about this guy and surrendered directly. Does it feel like he won't kill him if he surrenders?
Do you dare to be less confident?
You are the number one attack point in the inside, and you were the All-Star last season!
No wonder David Li. The year when Wang Jun came to the Bulls was the same as the year when he entered the league. Wang Jun often asked David Li to fight him one-sidedly, just to torture him unilaterally. When fighting in groups, David Li was misplaced by Wang Jun.
His psychological shadow area when facing Wang Jun is 100 times that of Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian and Wang Juncai are teammates, but they have not had many single-handed matches, and they have begun to doubt their lives.
Now Yi Jianlian no longer considers becoming a superstar, nor does he want to play low posts, so he positioned himself as a player like Fry, Villanueva, pulling out pick-and-roll, and waiting for the opportunity to shoot.
In the evening, the stadium was full. As soon as Wang Jun appeared, he was greeted with a shocking boo.
tn*t Barkley smiled and said, "Many fans suggested erecting a bronze statue for Wang Jun, but now there is no hope. He disappointed Bulls fans."
Smith smiled and said, "The one who is even more disappointed must be the boss. Wang Junke is better than Jordan."
Wang Jun left directly and didn't get anything for the team, which was a bit unimpressive. For three MVPs, no matter which team they traded with, they could exchange half of the team. The boss Reinsdorf hated him to the core.
Wang Jun greeted his old teammates.
David Lee hugged him and whispered: "Don't get too much on my head, give me some face."
Wang Jun smiled and said, "That's hard to say. You know that I like to listen to boo. If I'm so powerful, I can't finish it."
"..." David Lee had a black line.
"Just kidding, with James as his teammate, I won't be so selfless, and I've never been selfless." Wang Jun patted his back.
CCTV5 Zhang said with a reasonable understanding: "My audience, the game is about to begin. Chicago home fans have been booing, not only against Wang Jun, James, Ray Allen and others, they have also been booed. They have become public enemies as predicted before the game. Wang Jun's expression is very relaxed, and he was joking with his Bulls teammates just now."
Yu Jia smiled and said, "Wang Jun played very well in the preseason, even better than before retirement. I think it's useless to just swear at him. His best teammates in the Nets were Martin, Carter, Kidd. His best teammates in the Bulls were Chandler, Lewis, and Hinrich. Now he is by his side, so the Kings are definitely stronger."
Both sides appeared, the five kings: Curry, Wang Jun, James, Gibson, and Yi Jianlian.
The Bulls Five: Lowry, Brewer, Barnes, Lewis, Chandler.
The coaching staff took advantage of Gibson's fighting spirit and wanted to train him, but despite his poor shooting ability, he still did.
Chandler jumped and won the game.
Lowry and David Lee played pick-and-roll in the middle, and Gibson replaced defense. The King's tactic was joint defense, and he did not keep an eye on people. Gibson and Yi Jianlian were on both sides of the low post, and Wang Jun was in the center.
Lowry passed the ball to the middle, and Wang Jun interfered with David Lee closely, forcing him to pass the ball.
The Bulls player passed back and forth, and it was almost 24 seconds. Lewis missed the jump shot against Curry, and the rebound was obtained by James, which reduced the speed and positional battle.
Zhang Heli smiled and said, "This round, the King's defense doesn't seem to be too bad."
Yu Jia shook her head: "I think the Bulls' offense is too bad. They don't have a super scorer."
Curry transported it to the frontcourt for James to organize in the middle, and the players were all pulled away.
Chapter completed!
