Chapter 863 Farewell to Fengcheng
The Timberwolves are still the No. [-] group in the Western Conference. They only lost three games in the first month of the new season and ranked first in the Western Conference, followed by the Lakers.

Bai Jidong and James were elected as the best players in the East and West in November.

Personal honors such as the best player of the month are like flying leaves on Bai Jidong's body, and it doesn't matter.

The really difficult thing is December, when the Timberwolves will usher in a devil's schedule.

During this period of the schedule, there are two games against the Spurs, and they will go to the West to challenge the Celtics and Cavaliers, and then go to Houston to meet the Rockets at the end of the month.

It is generally believed that the Timberwolves will expose a lot of flaws during this period of time, and that is exactly the case.

Bai Jidong is injured and unable to maintain a high level of state for a long time. Others need to stand up in due course.

What the Timberwolves lack most now is such a person.

Vashabek and Spanoulis are very characteristic, but their strength is after all worse.

Although Medved has made great progress, he is still familiar with the rhythm of the game. Needless to say, Zhao Li, his top priority now is to adapt to the confrontation in the NBA.

In the first game in December, the Timberwolves played against the Spurs at home.

Duncan showed his power and beat Medved to six fouls in the third quarter. The Timberwolves lost their barrier inside and suffered a crushing defeat.

This is just the beginning. Although there is no losing streak, the Timberwolves lost half of the games in December.

The ranking dropped directly from No. [-] in the West to No. [-] in the West.

"The Timberwolves seem to be facing the same situation as last season. They had the same bad start last season, but then they broke the regular season winning streak. Let's see what happens next."

Most Timberwolves supporters are still optimistic, after all, there are precedents.

Only Bai Jidong knows that this time is different.

The Timberwolves now lack the ambition to win the championship. They have won four championships, and they no longer desire the honor that everyone yearns for.

Bai Jidong gradually adjusted his mentality, and now he can't change the fate of the team, his back injury made him fall too much.

"The situation is more serious than before." The doctor advised Bai Jidong to truce.

Bai Jidong asked: "Why don't I feel anything?" "Are you a doctor?" The doctor asked seriously.

"The next match is Chicago, I can't miss it." Bai Jidong said
The doctor pondered how to find a balance between the two, "You can play, but the playing time should be controlled within 10 minutes."

Bai Jidong said: "Enough."

Chicago

Since 2004, every time Bai Jidong came to Fengcheng, he had some special feelings.

No matter how long it has passed, this is the place where his dream started. Here, there is beauty and sorrow.

The plane landed at the airport, under the cover of the security personnel, Bai Jidong avoided the journalists who were staring at him, and left in a special car.

Bai Jidong's destination is not a hotel, nor a training hall, but a mansion in the suburbs.

Jerry Krause spent his life here.

Krause is no longer the general manager of the Bulls. In recognition of him, Reinsdorf gave him the status of a lifelong consultant.

A consultant can't satisfy Klaus' ambition, but Klaus' body can no longer support him.

Therefore, Klaus accepted this arrangement, like an old man who is idle at home. The only companions with him all day long are TV, newspapers, a cat and a dog.

Times have changed, Bai Jidong has never held grudges against Klaus.

The NBA is a big business, and no one is untradeable.

Without Klaus, Bai Jidong would not be where he is today.

"Jerry, how is your health recently?" Bai Jidong asked.

Klaus sighed, "It's not good, I feel like I'm going to see God soon."

"I'm afraid God doesn't like to see such a fat person, you have to lose weight." Bai Jidong said half jokingly half seriously.

Klaus shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't. My joints have problems and I can't do much exercise."

Klaus's later life is simply a model of "how fat people are plagued by various diseases". He personally used his own experience to tell all fat people in the world: Lose weight while you are young.

"Maybe you need a nutritious meal." If you can't exercise, Bai Jidong can't think of a way to help Klaus lose weight.

Klaus joked: "If I can't eat wantonly, then I might as well die early."

"Alright, Jerry, let's not talk about it." Bai Jidong didn't want to talk about death with an elderly man.

"Meow!" A cat ran out and jumped onto Klaus' lap, begging to be hugged and stroked.

Klaus scratched its neck softly, "Old guys like me, only they are willing to accompany me."

Klaus was too tough as the Bulls general manager back then, and he belonged to the kind of person who didn't like him except the boss.

In his old age, his young friends alienated him one by one, and his colleagues couldn't say anything nice about him.

It's as if there is no Klaus in this world at all, except for his relatives, the world has forgotten him.

"How is the team doing recently?" Bai Jidong casually chatted about the Bulls.

When talking about the team, other colors appeared on Krause's face, as if he had become the founder of the Bulls dynasty again, the wily Jerry Krause.

"It's improving, Derek is a very good young man, you have to be careful tonight." Klaus praised Rose.

Ross?Bai Jidong thought of the young man in the draft again.

"How does he compare to me when I was a rookie?" Bai Jidong asked shamelessly.

The Americans don't say polite words, but Klaus told the truth: "Derek is better than you when you were a rookie. At that time, you could only follow Michael and the others as a green leaf, and Derek can already affect the outcome of the game."

"If you say that, I'll give him a lesson tonight." Bai Jidong called himself "Rising Star Grave", and bullied rookies from all walks of life.

Klaus smiled: "Then I am looking forward to tonight's game."

"Welcome to tonight's NBA Night with Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley."

"Kenny, do you think there is anything interesting about tonight's game?"

"What to watch, maybe what will the White Wolf do against the Bulls for the first time this season?"

"Yes, we all know the White Wolves will give their best performance against the Bulls."

"We all like that, like when Chuck gets dumped by Beyoncé, you're definitely going to go out of your way to prove 'you shouldn't fucking dump me! ""

The talk show of the two sluts can go on until tomorrow morning, but the audience wants to watch the game more than listen to the bragging of two retired players.

What you need to know about Derrick Rose is that he is the first No. [-] guard after "Magic" Johnson.

There is another interesting record.

In the past 30 years or even longer, none of the guards who were selected with the previous third overall picks were parallel imports.

People like Chauncey Billups and Mike Bibby are considered "mediocre" representatives.

This shows how many people's hopes Rose carries.

"The Chicago sun has been extinguished several times, and now it is ushering in a ray of dawn."

"We can see talent in Derrick Rose, but is he really the guy Chicago was waiting for?"

Zhao Li seriously prepared for the battle.

Rose's rookie season has fulfilled the expectations of the outside world, while Zhao Li is still adapting.

Since the start of the season, Zhao Li has had highs and lows. The summary can be summed up in three words: unstable.

Now it's time to face No.1 among the students in the same grade, so it's inevitable that I'm nervous.

"The confrontation between Chicago's second guard and Chicago's first guard is very interesting, isn't it?" Bai Jidong saw that he was so nervous that he couldn't even make an open shot.

The game is about to start, and the Bulls' youth team headed by Rose are all on the stage.

Bai Jidong looked up at the championship flag on the roof.

1996
1997
1998
Time flies so fast, ten years have passed in a flash.

Bai Jidong looked at his teammates, "Don't dawdle, get ready to play."

Teammates from both sides played together and stood on both sides. Medved stood in front of Joakim Noah, staring wide-eyed.

"Your hairstyle is not cool at all." Medved has developed a habit of spamming before starting the fight.

Noah gave him a cold look, "There are a lot of idiots like you in Paris."

"It's true that I'm not smart, but people with ugly hair like yours and no self-knowledge are probably one of the few existences of all the people on the planet." Medved's trash talk hit Noah critically, and the game Before it even started, the smell of gunpowder was very strong.

Bai Jidong has brought so many rookies, and Medved is the one who resembles him the most. (in terms of trash talk)
"This kid can really talk." Bai Jidong finally knew what his teammates thought when he spat.

I was so worried that Noah lost control of his emotions and raised his hand to punch Medved to death...

"Your name is Sabo, right?" Bai Jidong looked at Sefolosha.

Sefolosha made up his mind from the very beginning not to speak to Bai Jidong at all, but now he is a little hesitant.

Wouldn't it be a bad idea to ignore it at all?
"Yes." Sefoloza nodded.

"Actually, I don't care what your name is." After Bai Jidong finished speaking, Medved had already won the opening ball for the Timberwolves.

The ball was patted into Bai Jidong's hand.

Bai Jidong passed it on to Zhao Li and let him handle it himself.

Zhao Li dribbled the ball against Rose, both of whom were high school stars in Chicago. They had faced each other many times, and Rose had the upper hand every time.

"Derek, long time no see." Zhao Li said.

Rose said flatly: "If I were you, I would pass the ball quickly."

"good idea."

After all, Zhao Li threw the ball into the air with one hand, and Medved, who was under the basket, jumped up to catch the ball and slam dunk.
