Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 84 Gorgeous Rose

The Bulls, which ranks second in the league, are the team that the Nets want to win but can't do anything this season. Thibodeau released the energy of Derrick Rose to the maximum, helping the third-year student firmly occupy the first place in the MVP list, and at the same time, it also let the fans of the United Center Arena in Chicago see another "king" after Jordan. Chicago has risen, and Ross is a native of Chicago. The glory of the local is more exciting than that of outsiders.

This season has been extremely successful for the Bulls, Rose, Luol Deng, and Noah, but for Boozer who came at a high price, it can only be said that you can't have both.

An average of 16+9 per game, here is the average data of Boozer with an annual salary of 19 million, it doesn't look that bad? Anyway, from the media to the fans, they expressed dissatisfaction with the team's signing. After all, a five-year fully guaranteed contract has a far-reaching impact.

In other words, it was a lose-lose decision for the Bulls to forcefully intercept Hubzel from the Nets. The Nets' summer team building plan was destroyed, and the supplementary players at the power forward position could not fill Boozer's vacancy. The Bulls wasted a lot of money and lost Rose at the same time. Noah was in the benefits of his rookie period. It also leaves a huge burden for the team's future salary space.

Speaking of Boozer himself, from an economic point of view, of course he made a profit. After all, there is a difference of 30 million US dollars, but from a basketball point of view, does the team's No. 1 in the Eastern Conference have much to do with him?

Any player has his own shortcomings. Boozer still averaged 24+10 per game in the Jazz last year, and he will never fall to this point in a year. And this problem lies with the entire coaching staff and management of the Bulls.

For an All-Star player to join a team with a complete lineup, there must be discomfort and running-in. The seamless cut-in between Gasol and the Lakers is just a special case, such as Kidd joining the Mavericks, Carter joining the Magic, and Anthony joining the Knicks. It took a while to get in touch with the team, sadly like Brand and Richard Jefferson who are out of tune with the new club. The key is that the coaching team has to reconcile and find a point where both parties can adapt. The Bulls did not give Boozer enough time to adjust. After the start of the new season, they found that the combination of Rose and Boozer did not achieve the desired effect, and immediately changed their tactical focus, returning to the idea that Rose alone dominated the team's offense. model. Of course, the team will give Boozer a certain singles opportunity. But Boozer is not Duncan, not Randolph, he needs the cooperation of his teammates.

Of course, based on the current positions of Jiang Mingliang and Stevens, judging the Bulls' mistakes is somewhat overreaching. The two of them are just emerging, and the Bulls rank first in the Eastern Conference.

From the beginning of the game between the two sides, it was full of confrontation. In the eyes of James' controversial behavior in the summer, and the loss of the Heat's Big Three lineup, James withdrew from the MNVP competition in the 10-11 season early, and the younger Rose, Howard, and Durant led this year's MVP competition. , and Rose is the most favored so far, mainly because of his own record advantage.

After seeing the shadow of the MVP, Rose became more serious about the game, or entered a somewhat extreme state, reflected in the offensive end, that is, he dominated most of the Bulls' offense. It can be said that Rose at this stage is not like Rose in the previous two years, but more like Iverson at his peak. He obviously has good teammates, but he feels like a lonely hero.

Whether it's Bledsoe or George, the defensive strategy adopted today is to prevent breakthroughs and not prevent shots, giving you two-step space, and if you are capable, you can shoot me to death outside the penalty area.

Most teams will choose this defensive method when facing Rose, but the strength and firmness of the implementation are not as firm as the Nets. Defense is really difficult.

However, in Rose's first four mid-range and long-range shots, none of them hit! The game was played a little out of Rose's rhythm.

Fortunately, although the Bulls' offense was not smooth, Thibodeau's defensive master's housekeeping skills were not lost. After 6 minutes in the first quarter, the score between the two sides was only 8:6.

At the moment of stalemate, Hamilton, who was given up by the Pistons and signed by the Bulls after buying out his contract, stood up and opened up the situation. Although Mask Man is known for his off-ball running and mid-range shooting, he is really not without the ability to play singles with the ball. Especially during the turbulent two years of the Pistons, Hamilton gave way to Iverson and Stuckey, and also served as the sixth man for a while.

In the Bulls, Hamilton, Boozer, and Luol Deng all have certain singles ability, and they can arrange a variety of offensive tactics if they are carefully crafted. On the offensive end, Rose really played the role of a lone hero.

Hamilton succeeded in two consecutive singles and assisted Luol Deng to hit a mid-range jumper, helping the Bulls slowly gain a certain advantage.

The Bulls' change to improve the team's offense is Hamilton, while the Nets are veteran Carter. After replacing Korver, Carter's role began to become prominent.

From the record point of view, before Carter joined the team and after Carter joined the Nets, the winning percentage of the Nets did not change much. As the sixth man, he averaged 11.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game for the team. A top-notch sixth-man stat, but not at the level of the best sixth-man. But people who really understand the ball, after watching the Nets game, it is not difficult to see Carter's great role.

The Nets, who play strictly according to the tactics set by the coach, will encounter a team with a tight defensive system to block the team's offense, and will encounter opponents such as James, Garnett, and Howard with abnormal defense capabilities. , In this kind of game, the Nets need Carter to support the court. Carter on the bench will use his brain to observe, and will try to improve the team's offense in different ways after appearing on the court.

If you want to say that Carter did not meet the expectations of Jiang Mingliang and Stevens after joining the team, but they mistakenly thought that Carter could play a role in the team. However, in fact, Korver did a better job for the Nets in this area.

Of course, individuals have their own personalities, as long as they can help the team, it is good in all aspects.

After the downturn in the first quarter of the game, Rose recovered his form in the second quarter. His domineering breakthrough made the Nets' defense miserable. Stevens, who kept changing directions without slowing down, shook his head repeatedly. This playing habit, Simply!

In the middle of the second quarter, he even copied the operation that Iverson swayed to Daniels twice in a row against the Wizards. The realistic fake moves and the anti-anatomical joint distortion completely swayed George's center of gravity, and then he went up easily. basket score.

The colleague who was applauded by the audience, Stevens called a timeout, not only to interrupt the momentum of the scene, but also to check whether George had twisted his knee.

Just now, George was shaken twice in a row, and he was indeed in danger.
