Chapter 359 Raiding Chicago United Center

Chapter 148 Raiding the Chicago United Center

The referee gave a scrimmage!

Jack and Hinrich are positioned at the free throw line, ready to execute the scrimmage.

Jack and Hinrich jumped the ball, watching the posture of both sides, you will feel amused.

Whether it's in height or in jumping, Jack beat Hinrich by more than just one.

Jack easily patted the ball to the frontcourt.

Mason flew towards the basketball and chased after it. He handled the ball, and faced the empty basket, he drove at a high speed.

The Hornets' fast break was launched successfully!

Mason rushed to the basket quickly, and Mason jumped up from the ground directly, with a loud "boom" and a one-handed dunk under the basket.

Bulls possession of the ball!

The Bulls followed Skiles' important instructions about crushing opponents in a short period of time, the former Hornets center PJ Brown who had just been replaced inside, and the team's mid-range jumper near the free throw line.

With a "bang", the basketball hit the front of the basket hard and was bounced high.

The Bulls scored, and the Hornets players did not stay too long, and directly retreated back, leaving Mason alone to catch the ball.

After Mason Gaga dribbled the ball halfway through, he saw rows of eyeballs in the front row, circling around the basketball in his hand.Just when everyone thought that the rookie point guard of the Hornets would not be able to withstand the pressure on the Bulls' back line and pass the ball.

No one knew that this time Mason decided to go it alone. He used two consecutive dribbles under the crotch, then shook his left shoulder, then kicked his right leg hard, and blocked Hinrich with Jack's cover. At that time, he had already rushed in quickly towards the inside line.

Ben Gordon stepped up to defend, but when he came near the free throw line, Mason made a fake pass that made Gordon lose his defensive position. Mason took the opportunity to shoot, and the inside Lol Deng casually stretched out his slender right arm Shaking.

Immediately, Mason's shooting rhythm was seriously disturbed by this right arm, and the basketball rolled out of the basket with bumps.

The audience at the scene looked at the basketball that was about to roll out, and they couldn't help the excitement in their hearts. They just wanted to shout loudly to vent their passionate emotions.

However, the moment the orange-red basketball left the basket, it was about to fall out.

A blue figure seemed to have escaped gravity, appearing at the front of the basket like a pack of dynamite, a pair of big hands grabbing the basketball and trying to fall out with a powerful slam dunk, with a bang!
The basket buzzed and trembled, like a moaning sound from a girl who had been fucked to death on the bed.

The big number 33 was reflected in everyone's eye sockets, it was Jack!

Big Ben "Wallace", known as the patron saint of the Bulls inside, could only watch helplessly as he violently ravaged the basket with his hands. The fans who had cheered just now were choked again by such a slam dunk.

After Jack finished the slam dunk and landed, he looked at the guy in front of him who made frequent small movements with a contemptuous expression on his face, and a disdainful sarcasm in his eyes.

"What are petty tricks? What I disdain the most are petty tricks!"

The words that floated out of Jack's mouth stimulated Da Ben's nerves. The shame that Jack was playing with just now can be said to be nakedly shown in front of so many people.

Humiliation, a merciless humiliation, Jack has always believed that within the rules of the game, no matter what method can be used, as long as it can hit the opponent, and it is necessary to defeat the opponent's will in both attack and defense. Never liked it, and he's more than happy to embarrass him in front of everyone, especially where that guy Michael Jordan used to be.

There is also a more important point: Ben Wallace, who has dirty defensive methods in front of him, really deserves to die!
It was the Bulls' turn to attack, and Hinrich, who had received Skiles' lesson during the timeout, played quite reasonably now. He made a pick-and-roll with Luol Deng on the outside. Ricky's ball was immediately in the hands of Luol Deng, and it was a big three-step when Luol Deng received the ball. Luol Deng just wanted to dunk and score.

Luol Deng wanted to score inside.I want to return to thinking, but there is a very big gap between reality and ideal.

I saw a black shadow covering the sky, completely covering the back of Lu Erdeng's head.Lu Er Deng wants to dunk, Jack will never allow Lu Er Deng to do so.

The dignity of the Hornets penalty area cannot allow others to trample on it casually.

I saw that Jack completely stretched his body in the air, and pressed a pair of big hands towards the basketball in Lou Erden's hand.

With a sound of 'snap', the basketball received a huge impact, and the basketball was slapped directly to the second row of auditorium, and the audience exclaimed.

Jack's cover is very clean, never sloppy, without the slightest blemish.Jack's block was definitely the top ten shot of the day.

Blocking is really a good thing. Jack's wonderful blocking directly raised the morale of the Hornets by more than just a grade.

It may be that he was deflated by Jack just now, and the Bulls' titan Lu Erdeng was very upset.After Lu Erdeng received Hinrich's serve, Lu Erdeng began to speed up crazily, and broke through directly towards the Hornets' penalty area.

Lu Erdeng's goal was directed at the Bulls' basket. He wanted to use this attack to justify himself. He wanted to use this attack to end the nightmare in the heart of Jack, a Bulls player. He wanted to crush all failures. Everything gets in the way.

"Rebound, tremble!"

Looking at the basket so close, Luol Deng roared in his heart. He wanted to rush away from all the blockers in front of him, and he wanted to put the ball directly into the Hornets' basket to vent his anger.

The British grabbed the basketball with both hands and smashed it into the hoop. He was waiting for the trembling sound of the hoop in response, and he wanted to hear the pleasant roar.

The "bang" didn't come as expected, Lol Deng only heard a "snap" slapping in his ears, and when he landed, he turned around and saw a tall figure hanging over his head, The waving palm slapped the basketball he shot away. At this moment, he seemed to see the hope of victory being slapped away by this palm. The basketball flying far away seemed to have taken away their possibility of victory. The No. 33 Nightmare turned into God, impossible to conquer forever.

This cap has no blemishes, a crisp and clean seal.A 24-second attack was less than time, and the Bulls were blocked twice in a row.How can you call the players of the Bulls to bear it.

The fans in Chicago's United Center arena seem to smell a hint of failure from this defense.They clenched their hands and almost forgot how to cheer for their team.

"Drip..." The referee's whistle did not sound.However, the 24-second offensive whistle sounded at the right time!
Jack's morale was directly boosted by Jack's continuous blocks.

Jack directly gave the Bulls an 8-0 spurt in the second half of the first quarter.

In this way, the Hornets ended the first quarter, and the point difference between the two sides came to 23 to 35 points. The Hornets entered the second quarter with a 12-point lead.

The game of basketball is about something called rhythm.As long as you find the rhythm of the game, it will become relatively simple.

During the rotation time of the second quarter, due to the absence of Chris Paul and Tyson Chandler one after another, the Hornets were severely weakened both in their starting lineup and their substitute lineup.

The Bulls took advantage of this period of time to narrow the point difference to only 6 points left.Byron Scott saw that the Hornets' substitutes were unreliable, so he had no choice but to ask for a timeout, and replaced Jack and other main players one after another.

As soon as Jack came up, he wanted the ball in the low post for low post singles.

Jack squeezed his thick back directly into Ben Wallace's hands, and the squeezing force from Jack had already exceeded the limit that Ben could bear.

Although he had been in contact with Jack before, Da Ben suffered a big loss in the three-second zone for the first time. The moment the two sides came into contact, he had to take a step back with his right foot, and put his hands on Jack's back as hard as he could. superior.But even so, he still didn't stop the opponent's progress. Jack used his advantage in strength to squeeze enough space in the first place, and he dunked directly with both hands without any gorgeous movements. The simple violence showed The value of violent aesthetics, but as a defender, Big Ben can only watch Jack score. After being squeezed away by Jack's body, he doesn't even have a chance to take off and block the shot.

"Oh, a very beautiful offense at the basket. Jack's advantage in strength has completely suppressed Da Ben." The on-site ball commentators roared loudly from the commentary booth.

Jack's performance was truly astounding.

Looking at the situation on the field, Skiles could only shake his head. It seemed that this was Jack's real power. Ben's power could not stop Jack at all, and he could only let him use the Bulls inside as his own backyard to do whatever he wanted.

The Bulls' offense didn't score!

Jack grabbed the rebound and came back and Jack acted as a pivot in the paint.The basketball was handed over to Butler who cut directly to the basket.

After Butler's one-handed dunk score after the air cut, the Hornets relied on Jack's one attack, one rebound and one assist in the interior to help the Hornets widen the point difference to double-digit 10 points.

Once Jack and other main players returned to the field, the Hornets began to firmly control the initiative in their own hands.

The Bulls' offense doesn't make it!

Jack rebounds!
Jack bowled a long pass throughout the court, the basketball was handed over to Butler who had already rushed to the basket, and the Hornets made a fast break.

Jack encountered double-team defense inside, Jack directly scored the ball, and Peja Stockovic from the bottom corner of the three-point line made a three-pointer!

"rinse"

…………

The basketball directly aroused a layer of gorgeous waves on the basket!

Jack, who had already made wedding dresses for his teammates in the interior countless times, had 13 seconds left before the end of the first half.Jack came to the outside with the ball for the first time.

The Hornets put the final shot of the first half directly into Jack's hands.Let Jack figure things out on his own.

Jack mentioned outside the three-point line. As the player who defended Jack, Ben Wallace, who also defended Jack, was also pulled to the outside by Jack.

Facing Ben Wallace who was defending him, Jack did not have the slightest feint. He turned sideways, reached his shoulders, dribbled the ball directly, and broke through to the basket. Jack completely relied on his own pure speed to send Ben Wallace to throw off.

The muscles of Jack's calf were tied like a tight hemp rope, and the explosive force erupted directly from Jack's calf. Jack was like an extremely swift cheetah, rushing towards the basket like lightning.

Ben Wallace, who was defending in front of Jack, hadn't had time to react at all, and Jack had already rushed straight towards the basket.Jack left him with nothing but his back.

Not to mention the old Ben Wallace, but LeBron James, who is very hot in today's league.Faced with Jack's swift attack, LeBron James dared not say that he could defend.

Jack was facing the empty basket, and Jack jumped up from the ground like a spring. Jack pressed the ball into the basket with both hands, and the basket made a loud "boom" sound. There was a loud noise, and the basketball hoop kept shaking because of Jack's strong pull.

"Beep..." The long whistle for the end of the first half of the game sounded!
"Oh God, why is this, is this really Chicago? I feel like this is New Orleans..."

The ball critics who were stimulated by Jack's performance will also go completely crazy.

After halftime, the Hornets widened the point difference to 20 points.After halftime the score came to 49 to 69.
20 points, this gap is like a galaxy, the Bulls have completely lost the chance of victory, the Hornets have been hit by such a big point difference in the first half of the game, and their comeback in the fourth quarter is basically useless.

The entire fourth quarter almost became the performance time of the two teams' substitutes. These guys who usually don't have much playing time can be considered to have caught a performance opportunity. Their attacks may sometimes appear frizzy, but they are more aggressive.

The Bulls fans at the scene had shut their noisy mouths and chose to leave the Chicago United Center Arena in silence. Every Bulls fan hoped that this was just a terrible nightmare, but unfortunately it was not.

In the fourth quarter, Skiles could only choose to replace all his main players. He didn't want the courage of all his main players to be destroyed in this battle. Is it worse for a basketball team with a broken lineup to play helplessly?

In today's game, Jack directly chopped all the dignity of the Bulls with devastating attacks and blocks.

The game wasn't quite over yet, however, as Bulls fans were on hand with the final minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.It's almost gone.

It's really uncomfortable to spend money to see your own team and be abused in your own territory.

杰克在本场比赛一共是登场了32分钟，杰克全场砍下了36分外加20篮板球7次助攻，外加技惊四座的4次封盖。唯一的瑕疵就是杰克的犯规的树木达到了5次。

This game can really be said: Jack alone involved all the attention of the Hornets.

and also

No wonder Aldridge deliberately complained off the court that with the presence of Jack, his only task is to put the ball passed by Jack into the basket, and Jack has already taken care of the rest.

The performance on the court has left a deep impression on all the players and fans of the Chicago Bulls.

Jack may become a new target of hatred for the Chicagoans in future games. The power of resentment is endless. What will happen next time they meet.

Who would know?However, the only thing that is certain is that the Chicago fans will never let Jack have a very easy life.

At the press conference after the game, Byron Scott unabashedly praised Jack's performance.

"Jack is definitely our wealth. I am very glad that he chose our team. Of course, I am also very glad that the Hornets kept him. Choosing him is choosing the future of the Hornets. I firmly believe that in the We can definitely do better under Jack."

And Skiles' deep voice hints at how depressed he is at the moment.

"The opposing team performed very well tonight. It can be said that they are perfect. Not only do they have a sharp shooter from the outside, Peja Stockovic, but their Jack on the inside is perfect. We have sent three big men to take turns to defend. He, but still can't stop his continuous threat to our basket. We lost due to lack of preparation and didn't realize Jack's true strength. This is my responsibility, and I hope we can cheer up in future games.

The flickering lights and countless microphones of the media became Jack's nightmare after the game. He was even stuck in the bathroom of the locker room. Poor Jack had nothing but a large towel around his waist. Even so, he had to smile and face the media's questioning.

"Jack, can you tell me how it feels to play here?"

"Is it because people in Chicago don't know you well. That's why you behave so well?"

"Big Ben seems to have been tricked by you! What is your purpose in doing this?"

…………

After the battle with Chicago, the Hornets ended their three-game winning streak with a three-game winning streak.

After ending this wave of consecutive three-way trips, the exhausted Hornets finally ushered in a rare three-day vacation.

For the successive absences of Tyson Chandler and Chris Paul, however, facing such a tight schedule, the Hornets have achieved a record of three consecutive away games.

This is really a blessing among misfortunes for the Hornets.

The Hornets also firmly held their fourth position in the Western Conference because of their three-game winning streak in away games. They have already reached 3 wins ahead of the Memphis Grizzlies behind them.Therefore, it is not difficult for the Hornets to keep the fourth place in the Western Conference.

However, if the Hornets want to go further and surpass the Phoenix Suns in front, it will be a bit more difficult.

The Hornets are still 1.5 games away from the Phoenix Suns. Do the Hornets want to go further or do they need to make enough efforts?

Maybe because of the continuous schedule, or something else, Byron Scott gave the players 2 days off.

The Hornets players, who hadn't had a good rest for half a month, couldn't help screaming.
