Chapter 426 [Unhappy to win the underdog]
Wang Jun made 11 of 17 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 31 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal.↖
Fans all hope he can play for a while, and that will likely win his first triple-double in his career.
The Lakers did not give up on the game. Just look at the lineup and know that they want to reverse, even if the hope is slim.
The Bulls' five players Du Hong, Christie, Lorden, Sangela, Marik Allen, vujasic, Kobe, Devin George, Cook, and Odom.
Vujasic and Cook are both players who can shoot three-pointers. Odom can pull to the perimeter as the center. The Lakers want to speed up the pace and fight for offense to recover their disadvantages.
The Bulls Pier Christie and Lol Deng double-team Kobe, and the others switched to defend, lowering the pace a little bit and trying to fight the Lakers.
The Bulls' biggest advantage is physical fitness. Except for Luo Er Deng, everyone else has very short playing time. Since Wang Jun arrived, Du Hong has only played about 15 minutes per game. He is very strong and has no place to use it.
After playing for 8 minutes, the Lakers were still 17 points behind. Kobe's touch was reduced and he played three-iron players, and he was not sure about free throws. He missed two free throws. Seeing this, Jackson finally gave up the game and replaced the main player.
The Bulls had the last laugh at the end of the game 112 to 95.
Kobe played for 44 minutes, made 17 of 37 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 8 of 12 free throws, and scored 43 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals in the whole game.
Although the data is beautiful, Kobe's shooting rate and efficiency are much worse than Wang Jun. Wang Jun went down to rest early, and he was facing a group of substitutes.
Wang Jun was also depressed when watching the game off the court. He wanted to go up and play for a while. How powerful would it be if he played a triple-double data such as 30+15+10?
Unfortunately, he lost to "trash time" again.
After the game, "Zen Master" said: "This is just an ordinary regular season, nothing to say. The Lakers need some time to get started in the new season."
Most of the Lakers players were silent. Kobe did not comment on Wang Jun. He said a few perfunctory words with a dark face. If he was asked to open the conversation, he would not help but want to criticize his teammates.
The reporter interviewed Wang Jun and asked: "You hardly shot in front of Kobe today. You all rely on pick-and-roll misplaced attacks and sent 8 assists. Is this the coach's arrangement?"
"Of course, the coaches emphasize the problem of misalignment in every game. This is the most basic thing to play, and the teammates cover it well."
Wang Jun paused and smiled and said, "Actually, I really hope the coach will make this arrangement: 'Wang, you must attack Kobe this, don't pass the ball, just hit him, because he is the best defense in the Lakers. As long as you score under the strict defense of super defensive players throughout the game, it doesn't matter if you hit more irons. Then you are a fearless hero. Well, this is what I think, so people on the Internet always say that I am a cancer and they can read my brain."
Everyone at the press conference laughed. There were very few people who didn’t understand football. If Wang Jun really did this whole game, he would probably have been replaced long ago. He would not be able to achieve his current achievements.
Wang Jun wanted to take the opportunity to mock those "ball blind" who often criticize him as a cancer.
He has 8 assists in this game, but he doesn't make many shots. His shooting percentage is high. He wants to see how the counter-kings will be criticized?
David Lee scored another double-double with 26 points and 10 rebounds. He was in a good mood and said a lot.
He first thanked Wang Jun for his passing and defensive attraction, and then attributed his explosion to his teammates' cooperation and coach's trust.
He said: "I'm honored to join the Bulls. It's the luckiest thing I have ever lived. I like the atmosphere of the team, the fans here, and everything in Chicago."
The happier David Lee smiled in front of the camera, the more uncomfortable the Knicks manager Thomas was.
Thomas is optimistic about the Knicks super lineup, which has played poorly since the start of the game. The inside players Curry, Sweetney, Channing Fry and others have performed very mediocrely, and none of them have better data than David Lee.
Moreover, David Lee was forced to the Bulls. What the opponent wanted was Svetney. This short and fat inside player could do nothing except mid-range shots. Once he encountered a pick-and-roll on the defensive end, he would be killed by the defender in one step.
The next day, the news commented on the Lakers, believing that they still have difficulty in making the playoffs this season, and the Bulls can win the Eastern Conference championship as long as they remain in shape.
Wang Jun became a popular candidate for MVP. As soon as he joined, the team's record improved significantly, just like Nash last season.
MVP selection has always been a combination of data and record, and Wang Jun’s data is definitely not bad.
The discussions on China are very fierce online. This is only Wang Jun’s third season. If he wins MVP, it will be awesome whether he can lead the Bulls to win the championship in the future.
"Komie" and "Prince" started a war of words.
The prince believed that Wang Jun's game was more powerful than usual, and was the absolute core and dominated the game.
Komi laughed at "Wang Jun didn't dare to play against Kobe at all." "Kobe defended Wang Jun to death, and his score was not obtained in front of Kobe." "I only know what the ability to hit the inside line is? I have the ability to shoot under Kobe's defense."
Few people watch press conferences, and only a few people know what Wang Jun said at the press conference.
As expected, there are fewer moves and many assists, and there are still people who are still not bad.
Kobe's poor offensive choices led to his fans' most treacherous remarks: "It's not a skill to throw the ball into the opponent's defense strong point."
So winning is not a skill. Kobe was too capable of leading the team to the bottom of the West last season. In this game, Kobe scored 40+, which was so tired that he was not as tired as Wang Jun in the third quarter, but it did not hinder the fans' love for him.
In fact, Kobe is not the "epic idiot" described by Komi at all. He doesn't deliberately shoot against the defense, and he wants to face defenders of David Lee, Nash, and Iverson every night.
Unfortunately, the opponent's tactics will never be arranged like this. He passed on his teammates and was too bad to seize the opportunity, which led to Kobe's poor choice.
If he doesn't make a shot, he has to watch the fun on the court, watching his teammates play a clumsy fight.
Can you win that way?
Then he will not be Kobe.
After a day off, the Bulls defeated the Magic 103-76 at home on the 22nd, and the winning streak expanded to 8 games.
The 2004 No. 1 pick Dwight Howard performed well this season. Tkoglu and Nelson were able to make breakthroughs and shoot and became his good helper, but the Magic's record was not good because the starting point guard was still Steve Francis.
This person who was pitched as an All-Star starter by Chinese fans and affectionately called "Boss Fu" has almost all the qualities of a cancer, high mistakes, low shooting rate, poor shooting choices, poor organizational ability, defense depends on the body, and average consciousness.
In this game, Francis could not play his breakthrough ability. He was defended by Sinrich, made 2 of 9 shots, 5 of 7 free throws, and scored 9 points and 8 assists. He seemed to have many assists, but he still made 6 mistakes. He gave many passes directly to his opponent, making people happy to fight back.
Wang Jun got off work again in the third quarter, with 27 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.
Wang Jun began to feel depressed. This was not the game he wanted. His playing time decreased and his data became worse.
The Bulls are second only to the Pistons, with 9 wins and 1 loss, and are ranked second in the Eastern Conference like the Cavaliers. The Heat, who has made great efforts to sign up for a lot of money in the summer, ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.
The Bulls got a break and challenged the Spurs away three days later and entered the Texas away journey.
Wang Jun is not afraid, the challenge is coming.
