This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 418 Challenge the League's No. [-] Bulls!
New York's huge investment, but in the first 12 games, it only won 4 games.

After losing to the Charlotte Bobcats, the New York Knicks lost to the Chicago Bulls, who were in the limelight.

Ironically, Wade scored 35 points in front of his hometown team and still lost, dropping the Knicks to 13th in the East and watching the Chicago Bulls climb to the top of the East.

The poor record is undoubtedly a headache for the management of the New York Knicks, and Mike D'Antoni has also become a scapegoat. Whip, on November 12, head coach Kenny Atkinson took office as the head coach, acting as the team's transitional head coach.

Interestingly, after Kenny Atkinson took office, the New York Knicks won three consecutive victories.

Of course, they won victories from the underdogs in the West, the Phoenix Suns, New Orleans Hornets, and the poor Washington Wizards.

But in any case, victory can cover up all the gossip.

It can also breed conspiracy theories. Mike D'Antoni and LeBron James are not suitable. The two had a gap early. James played Mike D'Antoni in the first 12 games.

The New Yorkers won less than half of the first 15 games, while the Charlotte Bobcats only won 7 games in the first [-] games.

However, in this season, the Charlotte Bobcats once again have the title of giant killer.

In 7 victories, they defeated the mighty New Jersey Nets and another Big Three New York Knicks. They also defeated the two powerful players in the Northwest Division during their road trip in the West. They won the first 14 games. The Oklahoma City Thunder in the next 10 and the Denver Nuggets, now ranked fifth in the West, lost two games.

The strong tenacity shown by the Charlotte Bobcats also gradually showed hope to the fans. After three days of rest, they will start a four-game trip in the Eastern Conference. The first game is to overtake the Boston Celtics. The Chicago Bulls ranked No. 8 in the league, followed by the Detroit Pistons, Indiana Pacers, and after the Orlando Magic, there will be [-] consecutive home games, including the Christmas game against the Golden State Warriors .

The first 20 games are difficult, but after this period, the Charlotte Bobcats should be able to have a small rebound, and the joy is that Brandon Roy has started individual training.

According to the comeback plan, from individual training, to small-scale three-on-three, five-on-team, and then the schedule for the comeback. Ideally, Brandon Roy has a chance to come back before the All-Star Game.

Chicago's United Center arena, because the opponent is the defending champion, once again ushered in a full situation.

This season, in the first 16 games, only lost 3 games. Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah were selected as the best of the week respectively, and Derry, who averaged 26.3 points and 7.1 assists per game, hit 56% + 38%. K. Rose is also expected to be elected the best of the month.

In the first round of last year's playoffs, the Charlotte Bobcats ruthlessly eliminated the Chicago Bulls 4-1. After Zhou Lin came back, he won three games in a row and almost dominated that round of the series. The fans probably hated it. Zhou Lin is dead.

But this season, Derrick Rose has risen a lot. The arrival of Boozer has made the original weak Bulls' inside offense have the same difference, ranking first in the league, but what about the Charlotte Bobcats? , currently ranked 10th in the East, and there is still a gap of 1.5 wins from the playoff threshold.

Strong and weak, it seems to be written upside down.

Zhou Lin, who is supporting the team, is very normal to be booed in the away game. Some fans even played the slogan "Zhou Ruandan", thinking that there will be no suspense in this game.

This is another nationally televised game.

"They probably forgot the fear of being dominated by Zhou Lin!"

But Charles Barkley thinks that this may anger Zhou Lin. It would be a big mistake to simply regard Charlotte as a team beyond the threshold of the playoffs.

However, in this game, for the Charlotte Bobcats, Jrue Holiday asked for leave, while David Lee suffered a back sprain, and this was the second game of the break.

Although I don't like rookies very much, in this game, Jeremy Lin, No. 17, was ordered to start in the starting position. Everyone knows that it is impossible for Derek Fisher to face Derek Rose. This kind of hot little sports car.

Perhaps, Jeremy Lin's speed can restrain Derrick Rose's impact.

In this game, the Charlotte Bobcats will have three Chinese faces.

Yi Jianlian and Roy Hibbert started together, waiting for Derek Rose inside.

In the second position, Tony Allen is still good at defense.

For the Chicago Bulls, Derrick Rose and Keith Bogans paired up in the backcourt.

Luol Deng, Carlos Boozer as the striker, Joakim Noah at the fifth position.

This lineup can be said to be both offensive and defensive, and the mix of new generation and Mesozoic players makes this team full of combat effectiveness.

Just like the Charlotte Bobcats reached the top, the Chicago Bulls also relied on the selection of Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah to develop themselves, and finally it is the season of harvest.

At the beginning of the game, the Charlotte Bobcats took the lead. In the first round when they got the ball, Zhou Lin hit the first goal at the top of the arc against Ruhr Deng's block.

This also means that Zhou Lin feels good in this game.

And Derrick Rose also quickly went to eat Jeremy Lin. Although Jeremy Lin is more flexible than Fisher, after all, he spent most of this season's games on the bench, with an average playing time of less than 6 minutes per game. Minutes, I don't feel good about the game, or I still need to adapt to the starting level of confrontation in NBA games.

Derrick Rose's cross-step was extraordinary. Although Jeremy Lin didn't completely pass Jeremy Lin, he not only hit the staggered layup, but was also tricked into a foul by Derrick Rose.

"Jeremy Lin must make fewer mistakes. This is his first start this season, and he is facing an outstanding player in the first position."

Jeremy Lin also has a bitter face, but how can the referee pay attention to a nobody like you.

Enjoying the shouts of MVP, Derrick Rose completed 2+1!

"Don't mind!"

Zhou Lin patted Jeremy Lin on the shoulder to express his comfort.

Holiday and David Lee are not here today, so Zhou Lin needs to start his offensive firepower early. As long as the Chicago Bulls choose single defense, Zhou Lin will definitely carry out the singles to the end.

The precise middle distance once again reminded Ruhr Deng of the fear of being dominated in the playoffs last year.

"Zhou Lin was fully fired from the very beginning, but with this lineup, the offensive end also depends entirely on Zhou Lin."

"If the Bobcats want to win today, they still have to make a fuss about defense!"

Fighting to attack, the lack of manpower of the Charlotte Bobcats seems to be far from enough. If Zhou Lin continues to play like this, the Bulls will definitely strengthen their defensive pressure on Zhou Lin.

Fortunately, the Charlotte Bobcats defended the impact in the first 4 minutes, while Zhou Lin continued to punish the opponent with medium and long distances. In the first 11 points of the Charlotte Bobcats, Zhou Lin took 9 of them. point.

However, the Lynx team's already weak back line today is in crisis because of Jeremy Lin's blocking foul. This is an ambiguous foul with a 50% probability. Offensive fouls can also be called Jeremy Lin's defensive fouls, but Jeremy Lin is a guy, and this is Chicago's home court, so Jeremy Lin received his second personal foul at 4 minutes and 02 seconds after his debut.

职业生涯首次首发登场的前4分钟，堪称狼狈，1中0，1个篮板1次失误2个犯规。

This is also the strategy of the Chicago Bulls today. Derrick Rose just bullies you and has no one in the first position. If Holiday is still playing today, then the game may not be like this.

"If, if it weren't for saving $600 million this summer, maybe the Bobcats' guard line would not be so embarrassed now!"

The narrator said with some regret.

Of course, if you are not in charge, you don’t know how expensive you are. As a team in a small market, even if you win the championship, even if there are Chinese players like Zhou Lin as a living sign in the team, the financial situation of the team is still not optimistic. Yes, it is absolutely impossible to spend every penny and pay the luxury tax. If possible, they even hope to play games at a level just above the poor line.

Derek Fisher was replaced here. Of course, even if Larry Brown was stupid, it was impossible for Derek Fisher to chase Rose. Instead, he chose to replace the defense of the players in the first and second positions. , Tony Allen went to defend Derrick Rose.

Tony Allen is indeed a very good defensive player. Under his pressure, Derrick Rose's offensive momentum stagnated. Even in one round, Tony Allen completed a frontal attack on Derrick Rose Steal.

But the Chicago Bulls are not the only one who can attack Derrick Rose. Carlos Boozer also hit Yi Jianlian twice in a row. Although he is not particularly experienced, Boozer still likes to match five. For players of height.

In addition, after Jeremy Lin left the field and Tony Allen took on the burden of defending Derrick Rose, the Chicago Bulls started to move again.

After not implementing double-teaming in the first half, the Bulls began to double-team ruthlessly in the second half, because Tony Allen was too scumbag on the offensive end. If it wasn’t like this, the Boston Celtics would Tony Allen will not be thrown away casually.

After missing two open shots, Tony Allen also shook his head, dissatisfied with his shots. One of them hit the rim too hard, and the other made an adjustment and made a three-point shot.

"Looks like he needs a good shooting coach to help him."

"As much as I admire Allen, his shooting is just too funny."

At the end of the first quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats struggled in the first half, but the second half stretched a bit.

31-25, 6 points behind~
The fact that the back line has almost no attack power also makes Bobcats fans miss Brandon Roy immensely.

During the substitute period, Jeremy Lin was sent up again.

During the break in the first quarter, Zhou Lin also gave Jeremy Lin a lot of psychological counseling. Although this high-achieving student from Harvard has his own unique insights in fighting against adversity, Zhou Lin's counseling still gave him a certain amount of support. the power of.

And compared to the starting confrontation, he couldn't get the ball, and he was completely used as a defensive player, which really limited his performance. In the second team, he and McGrady shared the ball equally, and McGrady today I also support this little brother and encourage him to fight more.

Although the opponent Derrick Rose was completely beaten, Jeremy Lin still played his due role in the face of CJ Watson. When the opponent didn't pay attention, he completely regarded him as a nobody At this time, Jeremy Lin exerted his strength.

When CJ Watson thought he had passed Jeremy Lin for a layup, Jeremy Lin behind him directly gave him a top hat. There is no doubt that Jeremy Lin's physical fitness without injury is definitely the ceiling of a yellow guard. And he is taller than CJ. Watson.

After Jeremy Lin blocked the ball, the Charlotte Bobcats' bench was all excited, and Zhou Lin even stood up and waved a towel for him.

After Jeremy Lin passed the ball to McGrady, McGrady hesitated for a moment, passed it back to Jeremy Lin, and said, "Little brother, come by yourself and let them see what you are capable of."

The players of the Charlotte Bobcats are also booing for Jeremy Lin to play one.

Still the right hand, Jeremy Lin's usual route.

His speed is much faster than CJ. Watson thought, and he pulls the bar for a layup.

"Jeremy Lin also scored, and there will be an additional penalty."

"You must know that Jeremy Lin averaged only 2.3 points per game. If he scored this goal, he would directly get the season average. His painstaking efforts paid off!"

Taking a deep breath, Jeremy Lin did not lose points at the free throw line.

It was also time for McGrady to show off in front of the New Yorkers, and completed a one-arm dunk in a quick down.

Although the height is not as good as the peak, although there is almost no gliding distance, this is also McGrady's first dunk this season!
He yelled at the opposing James Johnson, and seemed to be telling others: I can still fight!

And this dunk also made Zhou Lin shake the towel frantically on the bench.

The bench of the Charlotte Bobcats is very active today. Although Jeremy Lin missed all of the next two shots, he and Tracy McGrady completed a layup after a stop-and-go.

McGrady also completed a dunk under the basket again!

And tonight, Jeremy Lin is expected to break his career-high 8-point record.

And McGrady seems to have regained his youth.
