I'm really not a brush in basketball

Chapter 223
After losing to the Lakers, Chen Long's mood did not fluctuate in particular.

After all, the opponent is the peak Kobe, but the Bulls' habit of rebounding strongly after losing has not changed.

Therefore, the Wizards are in a panic now.

Only Nick Young and the general Arenas, who was unable to play, were very calm. One was that he forced him to be strong, and my father Nick Young, and the other didn't pay attention to the status quo of the team at all.

The Wizards without Arenas not only fell out of the playoffs, but also had a record of only 16 wins and 56 losses, which is simply a tragedy in capital letters.

Two days later, at the Verizon Center in Washington, the Wizards played against the Bulls at home.

Before the game, no one thought that the Wizards had the possibility of winning, and the strengths of the two teams were far apart.

Only Nick Yang still looks fearless.

Nick Yang, who replaced his big brother Arenas as the starter, happened to meet Chen Long.

Without any preparation, Chen Long shot a super long three-pointer in front of Nick Young at the beginning of the game, making the Washington fans shut up.

Nick Yang was just stunned for a moment, his heart fluctuated a bit, and then he held back his strength to prove himself and asked for the ball to single Chen Long.

I saw Nick Young step back and shoot after completing the three-point line. Because the shot felt very smooth, Nick Young turned around in advance to celebrate the goal.

But the basketball looks like it has entered, but it is actually an air ball.

There was no expected applause at the scene, and Nick Young turned around to see that Noah got the rebound, and then made a long pass to the Wizards basket.

Chen Long quickly rushed past Nick Young, caught up with the basketball, and succeeded in gliding and dunking!
Nick Young's expression was extremely embarrassed.

On the one hand, the offense was unfavorable, and the three-point shot was not good, and then the defense was unfavorable. I watched Chen Longchao hit a morale-boosting counterattack dunk.

Arenas was also silent, wondering whether his little brother's brain is not very good, and then changed his mind, it's right if it's not good, because my brain is not very good either...

Chen Long celebrated his goal with the overlord step.

There were already fans of Chen Long and the Bulls at the Verizon Center, so the cheers at the scene even overwhelmed the boos.

On the Wizards side, apart from Nick Young, only Antawn Jamison is still capable of fighting.

But Jamison's scoring ability is very unstable, so the Wizards only scored 11 points in the first quarter, while the Bulls scored 33 points.

After falling behind by 12 points in the first quarter, Washington fans were angry, but they thought it was normal. After all, the opponent was a super-strong team that had only lost 6 games so far this season.

In the second quarter, Chen Long, Rose and Sean Marion only played 6 minutes, and the three of them played a 9:0 offensive climax together, helping the Bulls lead by 20 points at halftime!
Because of the poor performance, mainly due to being beaten by Chen Long, Nick Young was abandoned early on, which made Arenas a little unhappy.

But there is no way, Arenas can't play by himself, the team is in a bad period, whether it is Nick Young, Jamison or others, there is no guarantee of playing time.

If you play too well, something is wrong, and if you play too poorly, it will not affect attendance.

For many weak teams, playing poorly is also a technical task.

In the third quarter, the Gemini came up in the middle of the period to harvest the game.

Washington fans left the field early, because this team now makes people see no hope.

The Bulls clocked in three quarters, and finally won the Wizards by 29 points, successfully continuing the horror tradition of breaking out after a loss.

At 109:80, the Bulls won their 66th victory of the season, not only securing a place in the playoffs ahead of schedule, but even securing the Central Division championship ten games ahead of schedule!
Even if the No. 2 Cavaliers win all the next ten games, the final record is 66 wins. With the record of the two sides fighting, the Bulls are still No. 1.

Now the only Boston Celtics team that can snatch No. [-] in the Eastern Conference from the Bulls, the premise is that the Celtics win all the remaining games, and the Bulls lose all the remaining games!
As for the team that can threaten the Bulls in the league, only the Los Angeles Lakers are required to win all the remaining games just like the Celtics, while the Bulls lose all.

Everyone knows that this is impossible. The Bulls have actually locked in the first place in the regular season in advance, and they also hold the initiative to break the record in their hands!
The next game against the 34-36 Detroit Pistons, the Bulls rested Sean Marion as usual.

The reason is simple. At this time, the Pistons have lost the original five tigers.

Although Richard Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace are still in the team, they couldn't play because of injuries.

Big Ben and Billups have already left the team.

In this Pistons team, only the 'Little Prince' Prince is left alone to guard the iron-blooded defense banner!
The current lineup of the Pistons is center Antonio Mike Dyess, power forward Kwame Brown, small forward Tayshaun Prince, shooting guard Aron Afflalo and point guard Rodney Stuckey.

Except for Prince, this lineup is basically defenseless.

The Bulls played a smooth offense, and Chen Long even sent out 6 assists in a single quarter, and got 16 assists in the game.

For Chris Paul, this is not good news, because Chen Long is only 0.3 away from winning the assists...

Rose easily scored 39 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and almost shot the Pistons into a sieve with a three-pointer. This situation would never have happened in previous years.

Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace, who were sitting on the bench, also felt that when they left the Pistons, there was no hope for such a team even if they continued to make the playoffs.

Chen Long led the Bulls to blow up the Pistons on both offense and defense.

100:79, the Bulls beat the Pistons by 21 points and won their 67th victory of the season.

So far, the Bulls have secured the first place in the league nine games ahead of schedule, surpassing the 72-win Bulls again in the same period.

Because Vinidnagro still has the power to rest the players, Pippen couldn't help feeling that the strength of the twin stars is too strong. In a few years, these two people will be able to challenge himself and Jordan's best combination in the NBA!
Of course, Chen Long and Rose have no intention of surpassing the combination of Jordan and Pippen, because they all know that the Bulls are Jordan's team and Pippen is the second leader, but the 72-win Bulls are definitely not dual-core!
Chen Long won the best of the month in February again, and Rose and Chen Long also won the third best of the week belonging to Gemini.

In their rookie season, Gemini has already achieved many achievements that rookies have never had the chance to achieve in their entire careers.

In addition, the Bulls are expected to break historical records, so the combination of Chen Long and Rose has begun to be compared with those great combinations that have created dynasties.

People will even discuss who is more terrifying in the dominance of Gemini and OK. After all, the OK combination is the creator of the only dynasty in the NBA since 2000.

But Chen Long and Rose never get involved in this kind of topic, because the task before them is to win the championship!
