Chapter 835 Bulls' Resentment

Fortunately, after Stephen arrived in the next game, he didn't have the feeling of the second game. It took him three times to get the ball in for the first time, but he still missed the second shot. Stephen's expression on his face was a little strange, as if he didn't dare It looks like I believe it, thanks to the excellent video capture technology now, it is instantly enlarged to the big screen in the center of the venue.

A smile flashed across the faces of the fans in Chicago. Although the team was still behind the opponent, seeing Stephen like this still made people laugh. Unexpectedly, this brutal guy has such a human side, just like It's the same as Michael Jordan sticking out his tongue back then.

Just after many people thought that Stephen was going to give up his own shot, the third round of offense started again. Stephen chose to make his own shot, but it still missed. The camera captured Stephen's expression again and put it on the big screen , It can be seen that Stephen is a little angry.

No matter how good at shooting players are, they will encounter this situation of not making shots repeatedly, especially on the court, but there are many differences in how to solve them. Smart players will adjust themselves, rational players will pass the ball to teammates, and persistent players will Continue to shoot. For most players, if they fail to make many shots, they will choose other offensive methods, such as layups, such as dunks, and get closer to the basket.

What many people believe is that as long as they can throw the ball into the basket once, they will be able to transfer some luck, and then they will be much better if they continue to shoot. This is actually just a psychological suggestion, but it cannot be said that it is useless.

There are also some players who believe in their own shooting skills. If they don’t score, they will keep shooting until they score or the end of the game. There are actually a lot of such players. If this happens often, such players will be crowned. With the title of "tumor".

However, Stephen has never been this type of player, and he rarely wastes too many offensive opportunities, just to satisfy his personal desire to shoot. relationship, and he won most of the games where he scored more points, and no one used this reason to criticize him.

Every player has his own weakness. Stephen's weakness in the past was that he was not calm, but as he gradually matured and became the leader of the team, he no longer needed to do many things himself, but his younger brother did it for him. Stephen rarely acts irrationally.

But today I don’t know what’s going on with Stephen. Since he came on the court, he has made [-] of [-] shots. He still chose to shoot on his own for the fifth time, but the ball still missed. Go up and grab the rebound, then turn around and do a sliding dunk, smashing the ball into the basket hard.

At this time, everyone remembered that Stephen was only a 21-year-old player. It is normal to act impulsively like this occasionally. People can be very rational, but if they are too rational, they will give people a lifeless feeling. The performance is too mature, making people feel that he is getting farther and farther away from ordinary people. In the Sonics, except for Coupard and Yao Ming, most people have a feeling that they are not close.

Occasionally, it feels like being angry, but it gives people a feeling that they are finally a normal person. The teammates are also very happy watching it, and the Chicago fans are also very happy watching it. As for the Bulls players, they want to take this opportunity. The score is a little closer. After all, the more Stephen misses the shot, the better it is for them.

Stephen himself didn't feel anything unusual. The reason why he missed the shot and continued to shoot was because the Sonics had enough lead. Even if the Bulls caught up, he just had to work harder and put a little pressure on himself. On the contrary, it's better, otherwise it's really meaningless.

Stephen has always taken care of his teammates' emotions and tried his best to suppress his own desire to shoot, but today, Stephen doesn't plan to do this anymore. Although the hand feeling is not very good, it is nothing, can't he let himself relax for a while? , and Stephen believes that his hand feeling will not continue to be so bad, especially when the Bulls are catching up with the score.

Sometimes when my heart is relaxed, my hands are also relaxed. If I have the desire to advance, my body will naturally react very strongly. Stephen wants to relax, so naturally the feeling of hand also wants to relax. relax for a moment.

As for the emotions of my teammates, I've taken care of you for so long, so it's nothing if you take care of me once, and it's not like you have to endure me like this every day.

The teammates also understand this very well. The players on the field don't think they have no chance to make a move, and they are all doing their best to defend. As for the offense, Stephen doesn't play according to the tactics. They run by themselves or cooperate with Stephen. The players on the field all watched with a smile on their faces. Anyway, the team is leading, and it is rare to see Stephen show off his power like this. It is very rare, especially for the new players this season. Look, I want to meet you.

Stephen's score in the first half alone is enough to make people surprised. Even if he feels bad in the second half, he can set a new record with a random point. Who will stop this at this time? Even Carlesimo is very easy. Chatting with my colleagues, I occasionally glanced at the situation on the field and then turned my head away.

I have to say that no one can regret Stephen's current status in the team. Whether it is Carlesimo or Presti, the three can only be said to be called the Big Three together, and in terms of importance, perhaps Stephen still Ranked first, after all, there are a lot of good general managers in the league. Presti can only be regarded as excellent, and there are even a lot of good head coaches. Carlesimo can only be said to be relatively excellent, but Players like Stephen are not so easy to find in the league, especially as soon as the performance last season came out, Stephen's status as the top of the league was directly established.

So if there is a conflict between the three of them, there is no doubt who Chris Hans will choose. The three of them are not close to him, nor have any confidantes, so it is naturally a choice most capable.

Stephen still continued his own cancerous performance, but fortunately his touch has recovered, not as bad as before, but Stephen still tries his best to shoot from the outside. Today he seems to be deliberately trying to make trouble with his own shooting, and he can't make a shot Still have to vote, vote in and then vote.

Stephen's performance naturally affected the team's offense. Although there was no change in defense, the Bulls still slowly approached the score step by step. When two-thirds of the third quarter passed, the Bulls unconsciously , The Bulls have chased the score to only six points left.

The Bulls seemed to see the hope of victory, and launched a wave of offensives, but Stephen suddenly felt better, and made three consecutive shots. Not only did the score gap not narrow as they hoped

Instead, it expanded to eight points.

No one knows how to describe how miraculous the change in Stephen's touch is. Just now he missed consecutively, but as soon as he got close to the score, he suddenly improved. He made three shots and made three shots. It's like teasing the Bulls, coaxing you to catch up first, and then suppressing you back, which is a bit like a cat catching a mouse.

This made the Bulls players very angry. Even if our strength is low, you can’t tease us like this. For opponents, at least you should maintain a certain amount of respect. What are you, let alone, with this resentment , The Bulls' offense has become sharper, especially Derrick Rose, who has used his physical advantages to the extreme, constantly hitting the Sonics basket, scoring goals, or making fouls.

As soon as Watson came on the court, he was fouled by him again. Depressed, he went to rest and replaced Russell Westbrook. The effect was also not very good. If it wasn't for Stephen's scoring, the score gap would have been widened. It's close, but even so, the score gap has been fluctuating between five and ten.

Since Stephen has been on the court, the Sonics have no chance to set up a double point guard lineup. Naturally, Jarrett Jack has never had the opportunity to play, but he is not idle sitting off the court, but has been watching the game on the court. , especially the duel between Watson and Westbrook and Derrick Rose.

One of the two is a stream of consciousness and the other is a stream of body, but the effect of defending Derrick Rose is not good. , but too little experience, as the defensive side is always at a disadvantage, you can't predict the opponent's behavior in advance, you have to react faster than the opponent, but Russell Westbrook can't do it at all.

This is why he suffered. Jarrett Jack was watching from below, thinking about how to defend the opponent if the same situation was replaced by himself, and at the same time summarizing the offensive characteristics of Derrick Rose.

Sure enough, after seeing Russell Westbrook suffer again and again, and even develop into the team's biggest loophole, which greatly reduced Stephen's hard work on the offensive end, Carlesimo finally couldn't forgive him. It was replaced by Jarrett Jack, but when Westbrook was off the court, Carlesimo still warned: "Look carefully from below."

Carlesimo doesn't think that Jarrett Jack can prevent Derrick Rose. In his opinion, unless Stephen makes a shot, as he did with Dwyane Wade back then, otherwise there is no one in the Sonics. People can prevent Derrick Rose, but this does not mean that Westbrook cannot learn something from the confrontation between Jarrett Jack and Derrick Rose.

As soon as he played, Jarrett Jack faced Derrick Rose. Seeing that the Sonics had replaced an unknown person, Derrick Rose flashed a smile, and it was indeed the same as Earl Watson and Russell Compared with Westbrook, Jarrett Jack is indeed less famous.

Earl Watson has always been the starting point guard of a strong team. Even if his performance is tepid, any team must study him when studying tactics. Naturally, no one does not know him, but Although Russell Westbrook was the team's backup point guard when he was in school, he was able to be selected for the Sonics at the fifth position, and the Sonics chose him through a trade, which is also very eye-catching.

And Jarrett Jack was very late in the draft, and he didn't have any dazzling performances in the Portland Trail Blazers. Coupled with his unremarkable appearance, Derrick Rose really noticed him for the first time, and it is obvious that a ball The team's third point guard should be the weakest, otherwise, why wouldn't he be the first and second.

The proud Derrick Rose didn't even pay attention to Watson and Westbrook, how could he pay attention to Jarrett Jack, but as soon as he took a step, Jarrett Jack stood up to him one step ahead of time. In the position he moved to, he was forced to change direction and move away from the basket. When he tried to approach the basket again by changing direction, Jarrett Jack happened to stand in his most accustomed position.

It might be a coincidence if it was said once, but Derrick Rose did not dare to underestimate it twice, but he still twisted his body like a twist again through his super direction-changing ability, and then sent the ball in with a backhand. basket.

Although Jarrett Jack's defense was unsuccessful, he successfully forced Derrick Rose to use his maximum ability to score the ball, and this kind of offensive method cannot be played like this throughout the game no matter who it is, and this This kind of forced large-scale change of direction is a huge injury to the entire upper limb above the ankle.

Stephen chose to take a shot again, facing Nocioni's defense, but the ball hit the basket and bounced back far away. Stephen wanted to fight for the offensive rebound. Just as he was about to start his steps, he saw a jersey of the same color The guy who snatched the ball down was Jarrett Jack.

However, after getting the ball, Jarrett Jack did not pass the ball back to Stephen, but took off directly on the spot, and threw the ball into the basket with a very common jumper.

Stephen didn't care, instead he gave Jarrett Jack a thumbs up, turned his head and ran back. For a player like Jarrett Jack who has little playing time, he wants to score by himself when he seizes the opportunity. Stephen understands this mentality very well. Because he came here from that time.

Unlike those players who entered the league with halos, Stephen never thought of being able to reach the current level from the very beginning. At that time, he thought that being able to play with the ball was not a bad thing. He thought that he would become a team The boss, become the league's top star.

So although Stephen is famous now, he has never forgotten his previous experience, so he never looks down on role players like some players. Although he will not get close to them, Stephen never despises them, whether it is his teammates or opponents .

Turning back, Jarrett Kejie continued to defend Derrick Rose. This time Derrick Rose easily reached the basket, but he did not choose to shoot himself, but planned to pass the ball to Luol Deng outside, but Jarrett Jack suddenly reached out from the side and destroyed his pass.

This was a very successful defense, because Luol Deng just ran out of the open space, and Westbrook sitting below seemed to see something, but he didn't seem to catch it, but he mentioned a little bit about Jarrett Jack Interest, it seems that this guy still has certain abilities and needs to learn.

After Jarrett took Jack on the court, he restricted Derrick Rose's performance to a certain extent. At this time, although Stephen's touch has recovered, he began to share the ball with his teammates. In this way, the score was slowly lost. Pulled away, until the end of the third quarter, the Sonics led the Bulls by 86 points 74 to [-].

Stephen scored 61 points in this quarter, and his personal score has reached 10 points, and the game has only lasted three quarters. In this quarter, Stephen was still able to score 70 points even though he didn't feel good, and he only played for a while. In [-] minutes, let him play another game, wouldn't he have to score more than [-] points.

Obviously, this is very possible. Although this may not be able to break Stephen's highest record, but for the Bulls, this is a very shameful record. No one has ever scored such a high score in the United Center Arena , Wilt Chamberlain scored 73 points against the Bulls, but that was at his own home court.

Michael Jordan once scored 69 points in this arena, but that was his own player. It is unreasonable to be scored so many points by the opponent's player at his own home court. Therefore, during the break during the festival, the Bulls The whole team reached a goal, that is, they must not allow Stephen to set records in his own arena, at least not to break Michael Jordan's scoring records.

But as soon as the game started, Stephen made a three-pointer, which has allowed him to surpass Michael Jordan's second scoring record, which is also 63 points in this arena. Stephen's shot is too unexpected , There was no pause at all, and as soon as the dribble was close to the three-point line, he jumped up and shot, so that Nocioni and Luol Deng, who were defending him, did not react at all.

The Bulls sent two players to defend Stephen, and Joakim Noah inside was ready to defend at any time. They would rather let the other players of the Sonics take shots than let Stephen continue to score. As for the victory of the game, they already felt that There is no hope. Anyway, if you continue to let Stephen score like this, you will still lose. It is better to defend him with all your strength.

Under their full defense, Stephen did encounter certain difficulties in scoring, but at this time, Stephen did not insist on shooting himself like in the third quarter, but passed the ball to his teammates when the opportunity was not good. Anyway, their Focus on yourself.

But I don’t know what’s going on today. The perimeter players of the Supersonics all encountered hand feeling problems. They couldn’t make shots in a row, so Stephen had to come by himself. But at this time, Yao Ming gave Stephen a great help. The next attack is still guaranteed, Stephen did not insist on his own shots, but kept passing the ball inside.

This made the Bulls hesitate to stick to Stephen's defense, but as soon as they relaxed, Stephen immediately slipped from the baseline to the basket, scored two points again with a layup, nothing to say, continue to defend Stephen.

As their defensive strength increased, Stephen no longer insisted on shooting himself, but tried to pass it to his teammates as much as possible, but as soon as they relaxed, Stephen went up by himself.

Even if they were teasing them, it was natural that they couldn't keep calm. Finally, Stephen passed the ball again, but Nocioni still ruthlessly knocked Stephen into the stands. When Stephen got up from the crowd , Yao Ming was already in front of him, and Kurt Thomas had stepped forward to push Nocioni aside. The referee was concentrating on how to make a penalty, so the game could not continue.

In the end, the two sides each played 68 rebounds, each gave a technical foul, and then gave Stephen two free throw opportunities. Stephen also easily scored the ball. His personal score came to 18 points, which is far behind Michael Jordan's scoring record. There is only one point left, and there are six minutes and [-] seconds left in the game.
