0764:The Raging Bull
133:91。
The Chicagoans, led by the Duke Jr., told the league with practical actions: this is the gap between first and ninth in the East.
This is undoubtedly a huge setback for the Knicks, who have just reaped hope through a trade.
And the current situation predicts that the New Yorkers will face an even bigger setback: if they can do their best to get their final playoff ticket, they will meet the Bulls again in the first round.
It's not hard to see from tonight's game that there is little doubt about the four massacres.
"I'm just focusing on the regular season now and making the chemistry a little bit better. I didn't keep an eye on the team's standings and I didn't plan for the opponents I'm going to face in the playoffs. ”
Snu, who scored 27 points, 9 assists, 8 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks in this game, replied calmly in an interview after the game: "As for the regular season MVP, after the season, there will definitely be a very clear name." ”
The Little Duke gracefully completed the interview with the New York press.
Then the next night, the Bulls crossed the Hudson River to New Jersey and tested the 10th place in the East with a 135-88 win at the Nets' home court.
Although the new owner of the Nets had a cordial meeting with Vice President Isaiah Thomas and Snoopy before the game, the three of them had a great conversation.
However, in the next game, the little duke did not give any face.
Snoopy, who ran to the No. 2 position, faced Travis Outlaw's defense, continuing his heads-up efficiency at Madison Garden. Although he is not known for his kaleidoscopic attacks, he is overwhelmed by his deft feints, sharp breakaways and occasional quick projectiles.
The Nets must arrange for wing additions by Oterlo's side.
And once the bag is formed, the speed of the ball will make the Nets players doubt their lives.
His assists easily led to Rose's assault, Carlos Boozer's mid-range shot, and Kevin Korver's three-point shot.
When the Duke was a point guard, the Bulls' offensive firepower quickly engulfed the Nets.
Deron Williams worked very hard to string up his new teammates and tried to play the pick-and-roll tactics of the Utah Jazz. But the effect is extremely bad, and it hardly succeeds once.
After all... This isn't Utah anymore.
He struggled to break free from old Sloane's control, but when he went to the outside world, he found that life was not so good.
Rumble!
In the fifth minute of the second half, Snoopy landed a thunderous dunk on his head.
This inhumane dunk made him feel the cruelty of the first place in the East, and at the same time declared the game hopeless.
Coach Frank replaced all the main players and took the initiative to raise the white flag.
They have done their best.
It's really inferior to people.
……
With back-to-back victories on both sides of the Hudson River, the Chicago Bulls once again sit at the top of ESPN's all-league power rankings.
Snoopy's name has finally crossed LeBron James and Kevin Durant to the top of the regular season MVP list.
Halfway through the season, many of the doubts and criticisms at the beginning of the season have disappeared. For example, at the beginning of the season, there were always people who said that it would be unfair to rank Snoopy's name third in the league.
Now, he averages a triple-double per game plus leads the team to the first place.
Who can disagree?
As for the question of who is better than Snoopy or Kevin Durant, it is gradually becoming clear. Although Durant is currently at the top of the scoring charts.
However, in front of the average triple-double per game and the first record in the East. The scoring champion has to be a little bit further back.
In Barkley's words: There is a scoring champion every year, and a triple-double per game may not be able to produce one in 20 years. As strong as Magic Johnson, he didn't achieve this feat. Since statistics began in the NBA, there are only two of them, Dugg and Robert.
After taking away two wins from New York, the Bulls returned home to take out the incoming Orlando Magic.
And then again... LeBron James' Miami Heat.
Although, Dwyane Wade didn't play because he twisted his knee in the All-Star Game and was on the daily watch list. But the 111-95 win also proved that the Bulls are the only team in the East that has a chance to beat the Heat in a series.
That night, Snoopy started at the No. 2 position. But he couldn't bargain in front of James, and with the offensive efficiency not high, he moved to the No. 5 position.
He teamed up with Joakina Noah to destroy Miami's weak interior line.
The Bulls built up a lead.
"That's what's terrible about Chicago. Snoopy is able to switch between five roles in a single game, and he can attack from the No.1 position or dominate the box as a central striker. ”
Reggie Miller, who commented on the game, said bluntly: "In terms of all-round skills, I think Snoopy is the first in the league. If he had scored more and had a higher shooting percentage, I could even give him the title of all-time No. 1. ”
17 points, 15 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals.
If you erase the assists, Snoopy's stats are simply top defensive centers. Erase rebounds, also a top-notch point guard.
If he really does what Reggie Miller said, he is also outstanding in scoring.
That.......
"LeBron James should sigh about his ill-fated fate!!" McBrin shrugged his shoulders, and what he said meant a lot.
After winning this high-profile battle to lock up the first place in the East, Snoopy did not appear in the post-game interview session. He gave all his exposure to Derrick Rose, who had 33 points and five assists tonight.
Since Snoopy moved from the No. 1 to No. 2 position, Rose has played more handy, and he even had two direct violent dunks tonight.
This makes his team very happy, and they love this kind of performance.
The more flashy the picture, the more it stimulates the adrenaline of the fans.
But in reality, Snoopy is against Derrick Rose's kind of flamboyant performance. He thinks Rose should be more secure, relying on physical talent to play can easily lead to injury.
Although this sentence is not very convincing for him to come out.
But the little duke knew in his heart that he and Rose were very different constructs.
"I have a very good understanding with Snoopy. We're all constantly improving, and he's improving a little bit faster. He's now able to be a shooter and shoot from beyond the three-point line. ”
Ross was full of praise for Snoopy's remarks in front of the media. He didn't intend to promote himself at all, although he could talk about the image of him slamming Joel Anthony's head.
But he is like a shy wife, who always praises her husband's bravery and dedication on the outside: "If we can go further in our projection on the outside, the cooperation between us will be more powerful." ”
Derrick Rose's words were echoed by many.
That's true. If these two top-five breakaways in the league both have perimeter shots, then their combined offensive power is unbeatable. Especially the little duke is so good at assisting tandems.
"The future is really Chicago Bulls'."
After the San Antonio Spurs lost by two points at the Union Center, Tim Duncan said to the Chicago media with great seriousness: "I don't want to criticize the referee's omission, the ball Snoopy stole me was a foul. But he was able to force the ball with only five seconds left in the game and hit the whistle, which is already a rare noble quality! ”
"They have a bright future!"
Popovich also gave his approval.
With the Bulls beating the Spurs, they have gone from first in the East to first in the league.
If it weren't for the fact that they lost too many games last December, some even thought that the Bulls would have broken the all-time best record.
Little by little, time passed.
February's tail is fast slipping away, followed by March, then into April, and the playoffs are getting closer.
In late February and March, the Bulls won a total of 16 games.
The two games they lost, one against the Dallas Mavericks and the other against the Charlotte Bobcats.
The loss to the Mavericks was due to the fact that the Dallas people were extremely tenacious indeed, and their sophistication and projection forced the young Bulls under control, and finally sealed the victory with two consecutive three-pointers from Nowitzki.
The loss to Charlotte Bobcats was hilarious.
Snoopy was absent for the home game that day.
He was then photographed with his agent at the March Madness Grand Finale. The game between Connecticut and Butler University that night was enough to be exciting, and Kemba Walker, a third-year point guard at UConncut, was in control from the beginning of the game, and even directed a 19-2 surge in the third quarter. This puts Butler University as the runner-up for the second year in a row.
Miss Daphne, who has become the most famous scout and agent in the NCAA, was mobbed by reporters after the game.
People want to get the names of the stars she likes from her.
Since Snoopy, who she signed in '08, has entered the league, she's been able to endure an elite star almost every year, and even became the agent of champion John Wall last year.
"Now that the NBA league is becoming fast-moving, the point guard is coming. That's why I'm going to sign top guards like Snoopy, Westbrook, James Harden, Stephen Curry, John Wall. ”
"Kemba Walker is my next customer. I think he's going to be the best No. 1 in the 2011 draft!! ”
Ms. Daphne said in a conclusive manner that her words were equivalent to announcing her candidacy on behalf of junior Kemba Walker.
Snoopy, who was standing on the sidelines, was immediately asked what he thought of Kemba Walker.
What else can the little duke say? A lot of praise piled up. What a combination of Westbrook, Derrick Rose, John Wall, Stephen Curry and so on and so forth.
Merely... It's weird.
As the two left the arena and entered the Lincoln RV, the reporter clearly heard an argument coming from inside.
Could it be that the little duke disagrees with Daphne's statement? He also thinks that Kyrie Irving, the Duke point guard who has announced his candidacy, is the best point guard this year?
