0733:[The Chosen One Arrives]
"I've always been a point guard."
The Duke raised an eyebrow at the Black Mamba before he walked over to Lakers point guard Steve Blake.
The white guard, who joined the Lakers this summer, is a solid and diligent white traditional point guard who lacks breakthrough ability and lacks power and speed. But he sees the big picture well, can hit three-pointers, and is also an extremely reliable passer, his passing is simple, direct and efficient.
During his time with the Trail Blazers, he averaged 10 points and 5 assists per game, which complemented Huang Mamba's partner Brandon Roy, and once set a record of 14 assists in a single quarter.
When he joined the Lakers, he immediately formed a seamless integration with the tactical system, and although he did not become a de facto starting point guard, he has surpassed Derrick Fisher in playing time.
When the little duke quickly ran to Blake, Blake immediately passed the basketball to Kobe Bryant, who pulled away the singles on the strong side, and the non-sticky ball was one of the reasons why the Black Mamba appreciated him.
Kobe Bryant immediately went on offense against Rohr Deng when he got the basketball, and he used a series of deft tentative moves to deceive the defense, and immediately jumped to the top of his hand after getting a hint of opportunity...... Bang!
The basketball didn't hit, and the black mamba didn't feel very good tonight.
After Joakinoah picked up the rebound strongly, he quickly made a long pass to Duge, who held the ball quickly and was as fast as lightning. Blake was able to keep up at first, but when Dugg rushed into the front three-point line to collect the ball, he immediately fell to the downside, and in desperation, he quickly reached for Ladug. But after all, he was a beat slower, and he couldn't hold Duge, but just reached out and pulled the little duke's jersey...... But as soon as he pinched it, he broke free.
As soon as Snoopy stepped into the free throw line, he immediately jumped up violently, slammed his right hand into the basket, and the black mamba who rushed from the diagonal side immediately jumped up and rounded his arm straight towards the basketball, seeing that he was about to complete the block from the side. But in mid-air, Duge only straightened slightly, turned his right hand to support, and shook slightly, and the basketball was thrown out of the palm of his hand...... His wrists are now very flexible.
The low-handed layup brought tears to the eyes of many Bulls fans in front of the TV, who clearly saw Scott Pippen's shadow from Snoopy's layup.
Swish!
The basketball was caught.
The beautiful goal made Kobe Bryant's defense useless.
At 100:99, the Chicago Bulls trailed by only one point.
"The referee missed an extra penalty." Charles Barkley emphasized during the slow-motion replay: "Steve had a clear pull foul at the free throw line. ”
But it doesn't really matter anymore.
Earl Johnson was already over there praising Snoopy's soft low-handed layup, and he was even more of a crazy Duke fan tonight than Barkley.
Because Snoopy had so many surprises to bring him tonight.
If Snoopy's first 10 games were just a strengthened version of last season, tonight, Snoopy's talent completely conquered his critical eye. Resolute dunks, silky smooth layups.
If this were some rookie's rookie season, the American media would definitely be chanting for the arrival of the 'Chosen One'.
Still, even though this is Snoopy's third season, it's still exciting.
Because Snoopy has blatantically taken a completely different path, other superstars generally show their talent before entering the NBA, and then slowly redeem it over time.
Snoopy, on the other hand, showed obvious flaws in his talent at the beginning.
But he overredeemed his limited talent. Become a superstar.
Now, in the third season of his career, he's suddenly blossoming into one of the NBA's top talents, though still not quite delivered. But the shock to the commentators was unparalleled.
Because, their previous pickiness of Snoopy, thinking that he did not have a high ceiling, was all shattered. Even, they have to put Snoopy in the unborn genius level of 'LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Shaq O'Neal'.
The game continues.
Kobe Bryant came back to the half and was still trying to shoot the jumper, and he's the kind of player who 'if I miss 100 shots, I'll keep throwing 101st.'"
There are pros and cons to this type of player, and if he finds his touch, he can easily take out any opponent.
And if he doesn't have a touch and the opponent maintains a consistent output, he can easily drag the home team into hell.
Tonight, apparently, the second scenario.
When Snoopy returned to half-time, he took advantage of Joaquin Noah's block to cut straight into the box and attract Korver, who had passed the ball into the bottom corner.
Korver hit a three-pointer with a knife.
And this three-point also announced that the Bulls started the quick counterattack mode.
Snoopy led the Bulls to strictly enforce the tactics on Tom Thibodeau's board, which even surprised Thibodeau: because Snoopy was seamlessly embedded in Rose's DDM system.
Even when he was in possession of the ball, the team's attack was noticeably smoother. Defensively, he hasn't lost his position either: it has something to do with Blake's lack of expertise.
Anyway.
After Rose was gone, the Bulls' offense became extraordinarily smooth. The Snubi team seized the opportunity of Kobe Bryant's poor hand and continued to complete decapitation-style defensive counterattacks, and the margin widened to double digits as they entered the countdown count.
Phil Jackson blew his whistle and replaced the main man.
For the defending champions, it seems that they have lost their form of active pursuit in the regular season.
When he got off the field, he could even see Ramal Odom greeting his sister-in-law and sister-in-law on the sidelines with a smile on his face, and he didn't forget to hug Kim Kardashian twice to show his intimacy.
Backbite!
The final whistle blew.
121:109!
The Bulls won the win with a last-ditch offensive run.
The biggest significance of this game for Bulls fans is not even revenge, but they see infinite possibilities in the little duke. Snoopy's opening dunk showed his top talent, and his last-minute role as point guard was a testament to his quality at the No. 1 position.
"The first task for the Chicago club right now is to find an attacking coach who can create an open attacking system for Snoopy and Derrick Rose." Earl Johnson said seriously in the commentary box: "You can't let Snoopy swing in various positions all the time. Although he is very versatile, but... That's not the way a superstar with super talent should be treated. ”
Earl Johnson was very candid.
Previously, he didn't think Snoopy had a problem swinging in various positions as a 'screw'. But as Snoopy's talent showed. So... You have to give him the ball.
How was Kevin Durant trained?
How was LeBron James trained?
It's all fed with the ball and the right to shoot.
"Now, the Bulls Club is facing happy troubles. Derrick Rose looks like the kind of player who can become a superstar, and he deserves to be nurtured across the board. Snoopy had already been a league superstar before, and now he's showing the potential of an all-time superstar. ”
Kenny Smith said, "Potential is something that needs to be cultivated to be unleashed, but there's only one basketball on the court. What will they do? ”
"yes." For the first time, Charles Barkley agreed with Kenny Smith.
"I think the talent of these two players on the Bulls has surpassed the Thunder in the West. They may even surpass the duo of Dwyane Wade and LeBron James. Right now... It's up to Chicagoans to claim their prizes!! ”
While Charles Barkley said this, the Bulls fans in front of the TV were both happy and worried. The joy is that the team's ceiling is getting higher and higher, and the worry is: if they don't exchange all the talents of the two, but cause unnecessary internal friction, wouldn't they enter Baoshan but return empty-handed.
