NBA: James wants to team up with me

Chapter 294 Defender Talent Replenishment Plan Jeremy Lin! (page 12)

In the final analysis, even if it is a combination of Wang Chong + twilight Garnett + young Gasol, looking at the league, the only ones that can really compete with it are the two Big Three teams of the East and West Heat and Lakers, and the Celtics Celtics, Spurs and a few other teams.

Those teams that are hovering on the edge of the playoffs or even at the bottom of the league can easily win as long as Wang Chong works hard and goes all out.

On February 2, the Bulls went to Boston to challenge the Celtics in their last away game of nine consecutive away games. In the end, they lost to the Celtics 12:91, and the winning streak came to an end.

In this game, Wang Chong and Durant scored the same score throughout the game. Wang Chong, who scored 42 points, was slightly better than Durant, who scored 36 points. However, Pierce also scored 24 points for the Green Army, plus Rondo's 14 points. With 9 rebounds and 11 assists, a near triple-double, the Bulls were ultimately defeated.

The reason for the loss was the team's lack of offensive firepower. Thomas Jr. performed very well in the previous games. His various breakthroughs and scoring points at the basket once became Wang Chong's most effective helper.

But in this game, Thomas faded instantly against Rondo.

Rondo is 1 meters tall. He is also a flexible and small point guard. Although he is not inferior to Thomas Jr. in terms of speed, Rondo's body is far stronger than Thomas Jr., and his height and wingspan are even more crushing.

Thomas, who was originally a first-year rookie and relied on his reckless play, was easily manipulated by Rondo. He only scored 9 points on 3 of 8 shots and made 5 turnovers.

There is no way around it. As a surprise player, Thomas is definitely qualified, but as the team's long-term main force, he is obviously far from it.

"This can't continue like this. Even if we can maintain enough dominance against weak teams in the regular season, it doesn't make any sense if we can't win against strong teams."

Wang Chong knows very well that several of the Bulls' main opponents are teams that are not afraid of flexible guards like Thomas.

The Heat have Wade, the Lakers have Paul, and the Celtics have Rondo. These are all defenders who have been selected to the All-Defensive Team all year round. They can easily take advantage of Thomas, who has almost nothing except speed and flexibility.

If they want to make a difference in the playoffs, the Bulls still need a point guard to step up.

At this time, Wang Chong suddenly thought of a suitable candidate.

Originally, he didn't consider it at all, but now it seems that it is really suitable for the current Bulls players.

-

In a hotel in New Orleans, Jeremy Lin, who had been waiting eagerly for a call from the Rockets, finally got the call.

But the content on the phone immediately dimmed the light in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Lin. The management has been discussing that your playing style does not match the Hornets' tactics, so..."

Jeremy Lin hung up the phone in disappointment, but couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Style doesn’t match the team?

If nothing else, the Hornets management's wording of rejection was relatively tactful.

After being waived by the Warriors last season, Jeremy Lin successfully signed a short-term contract with the Rockets in the summer. He thought he could stay with the Rockets, but he never thought that before the start of the new season, the Rockets chose to waive him in order to free up salary space. Lose.

The unemployed Jeremy Lin started looking for a job around the league. However, unlike the original time and space, the New York Knicks, which already owned Rose, had no idea of ​​signing a point guard. The butterfly effect resulted in Jeremy Lin not being able to sign a point guard until February. Get a job.

After hanging up the phone in disappointment, Jeremy Lin muttered to himself as if to convince himself.

"It can't go on like this. I really have no choice but to leave the NBA and go play overseas... China's CBA has always wanted me to play there, and the offer they gave is not low, so I can only go there first. Find a job and wait for the opportunity to return to the NBA.”

Although he said this, Jeremy Lin also knew that once he left the NBA, it would be basically impossible to come back.

In order to be able to play in the NBA, he has put in so much sweat and effort and endured so much hardship, and he is not willing to give up no matter what.

"Dingling, ringing, ringing..."

At this moment, Jeremy Lin's phone rang again.

He quickly picked up the phone and took a look at it, then shook his head in disappointment. He thought it was the Hornets management who changed their mind and called back, but it turned out to be an unfamiliar number.

"Hello."

Jeremy Lin answered the phone and said.

However, the voice from the other side of the phone made Jeremy Lin feel like he was in a dream.

"Hello, are you Mr. Jeremy Lin? I am a staff member of the Bulls management. Now, on behalf of the Chicago Bulls, I invite you to come to Chicago for a team trial. If the trial results are satisfactory, we will consider signing a short-term contract with you. contract."

Chicago Bulls invite themselves?

Jeremy Lin was stunned for a moment. Who knew Wang Chong's name?

As a former Chinese-American compatriot, Jeremy Lin has always regarded Wang Chong as his idol since he started playing basketball. To put it a bit exaggerated, the reason why he firmly believes that he can make a difference in the NBA is entirely because of Wang Chong. The jade beads are in front.

Although Wang Chong has now returned to Chinese nationality and his identity is different, Jeremy Lin knows very well that when he first entered the NBA in 03, Wang Chong must have encountered no less difficulties than he did.

Of course, what is more important than these is why the Bulls invited themselves to participate in trial training.

Jeremy Lin knows very well that the Bulls are currently losing two main point guards, and the guard position is already stretched, and they really need to supplement the point guard strength.

He immediately realized how important this opportunity was to him, as it would most likely determine his future career and destiny!

-

To be honest, when Curry was injured at first, Wang Chong really didn't think about Jeremy Lin.

After all, it has been nearly nine years since time travel, and many of Wang Chong's memories have become ambiguous. In order to ensure that he does not forget some important players and major NBA events, he even wrote a secret diary to record the records. Some key information, including Jeremy Lin’s deeds, is actually included.

In the 11-12 season, the most phenomenal thing in the NBA was undoubtedly the storm Jeremy Lin caused in the New York Knicks.

Starting from February 2, when Jeremy Lin came off the bench and scored 4 points, 25 rebounds and 5 assists for the Knicks, Jeremy Lin was promoted to the starting position at the speed of light. In the first four starting games of his career, he averaged 7 points, 27 assists and 8 steals per game, and was elected to the Eastern Conference Weekly. The best player, and led the Knicks to a hearty 2-game winning streak.

You must know that before this, the Knicks' regular season record was only 8 wins and 15 losses. With two major stars, Anthony and Stoudemire, their performance was so bad that coach Mike D'Antoni once lost his job.

But just when D'Antoni was about to be kicked out, Jeremy Lin came out of nowhere. A wave of 7 consecutive victories brought the Knicks' record back to nearly 50%, which also directly saved D'Antoni's coaching career in the Knicks.

During the time when Jeremy Lin played Lin Storm, the United States and even the world were discussing this magical kid. Based on his performance in just a few games, Jeremy Lin was directly listed in Time Magazine, which shows his influence.

And his most classic game was before the game against the Lakers. When a reporter asked Kobe if he knew Jeremy Lin, Kobe said arrogantly that I had never heard of Jeremy Lin.
