Chapter 1 Fighting the Bulls Again
After defeating the Pistons in an away game, Li Shihao flew to Washington with the team to play against the Wizards.
The Washington Wizards have completely lost all fantasy this season. Fans know that the Washington Wizards have completely entered the reconstruction period, and there is no suspense.
Since the "gun door" incident was exposed, the Wizards' Big 3 has completely disintegrated. The price of Arenas' reimbursement for the season and the consequences of ruining his reputation have made no team in the league dare to let such a time bomb Stay with the team.
Although the United States is a society where guns are legal, anyone who thinks that there is a teammate playing with you around him will raise his gun to you at a certain moment because of trivial matters such as gambling money, and when the gun is aimed at you At the moment of the head, I am afraid that even the best friendship will turn into a life-and-death enmity.
The bad impact of this incident was too great. The Pauline family, who was in charge of the Washington Wizards, even once had the idea of selling the team.
In today's Washington Wizards lineup, there is no star who can be a great player. The Washington Wizards have truly become the bottom team in the league and have no chance of turning around.
The Wizards are currently ranked second to last in the Eastern Conference, with a record of 17 wins and 37 losses, which is definitely the rhythm of going straight to the top three picks. Now, the management of the Wizards is already sending scouts to inspect the talented players in the NCAA.
Especially for John Wall, the main core of the University of Kentucky, this talented guard template is Derrick Rose. The outstanding performance of the Bulls' No. [-] pick has made John Wall's draft market soar.
The management of the Wizards has also set their sights on this young man who is very hot in the draft. With their worst record in the league, there is no accident that they will have a great chance of getting the top three picks in the draft, and even luckier, they will get the No. [-] pick Signing is also very possible.
Naturally, John Wall of the University of Kentucky has become the object of investigation for the Washington Wizards, and they are even considering the road to reconstruction with John Wall as the core of the team.
The Timberwolves played away against the Washington Wizards, and there was no suspense. The Timberwolves once again besieged the Washington Wizards and easily let the latter hand over their victory.
Li Shihao got off work after only three quarters of the game. After the "Gun Gate" incident was exposed, the Washington Wizards had no competitiveness. Many players were suspended by the league. Under such circumstances, the Washington Wizards did not fall to the bottom of the league. This is what surprised Li Shihao.
After staying overnight in Washington, the Timberwolves boys who played two consecutive away games finally took the team flight and returned to Minnesota.
Although Minnesota is still cold at this moment, and there is still snow in the city, it makes the Timberwolves boys feel extremely warm.
After playing many back-to-back away games, Li Shihao and the others understood how happy it is to play at home. The Timberwolves' boys have gotten used to everything in Minnesota.
This time, they will sit at home and face the Bulls from Chicago, once the undisputed invincible team in the league.
It's just that it was already the glory of Michael Jordan's time, and today's Bulls are still struggling to reach the semifinals!
Chicago fans found their future leader Derrick Rose. This young man gave Chicago fans all their fantasies. They were shocked by the amazing performance of this young point guard. Chicago fans thought they found the most suitable post-Jordan era Team leader!
A future superstar who can lead the Chicago Bulls back to the glory of the championship!
This year, if there is no Li Shihao's breakthrough, I am afraid that Derrick Rose will once again refresh people's impression of him.
This young man was selected to the All-Star Game for the first time this year and became another All-Star player for the Bulls since Jordan. Moreover, Derrick Rose, who did all this, was only 21 years old and 133 days old. The youngest All-Star player.
Refreshing the record of 21 years and 359 days held by Michael Jordan.
As the god of basketball, Michael Jordan, he has set many records, and the record broken by Rose may be the less dazzling one in a long list of records, but this record makes Rose's potential be optimistic by everyone.
This year's Bulls' record is not as good as last year's. With a winning rate of over [-]%, they barely maintain the eighth place in the Eastern Conference.
The result of the explosion of the collective record of a bunch of strong teams in the West is that more teams in the East have suffered from the fish pond.
The Cleveland Cavaliers led by the little emperor LeBron James relied on their strong strength not only not to be defeated by the strong collective strength of the West, but also to have the best record, far ahead of the rest of the 29 teams in the league.
These are the reasons for the decline in the record of the Eastern Conference teams compared to previous years, but this does not affect the popularity of Derrick Rose in the United States. The nickname of "Wind City Rose" is becoming more and more loud in the league. The fourth place in the league, surpassing a group of senior superstars, has entered the ranks of superstars.
It's a pity that there is an anomaly like Li Shihao in the West. His background identity is Chinese, and he has the same excellent leadership ability.
The same rookie season is about to lead the team into the playoffs, or in the brutally competitive Western environment, people want to know which of the two young guards of the new generation collides, which is better, and who will be the best one!
This season, the performance of the Timberwolves, the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Bucks has exceeded the expectations of the media and fans, especially the rise of the Timberwolves is too fast. There are not many rookies in the playoffs.
Counting the superstars of the Platinum Generation in 03, it seems that Carmelo Anthony and Flash Wade have done this, and the little emperor LeBron James is happily brushing up the data in his first season.
Therefore, for the rookies in the league, the fans and the basketball media are tolerant. As long as the rookie can lead the team to the playoffs in the first three seasons, it can prove the rookie's impressive ability.
However, this year Li Shihao and Brandon Jennings seem to be about to replicate this legendary feat!Just in their immature rookie season.
In contrast, Li Shihao's gold content is higher, and Brandon Jennings is not the only core. With Bogut as his helper, he is not fighting alone.
Both rookies have brought the team to the threshold of the playoffs and proved their potential.
And the Oklahoma City Thunder are not bad either. Kevin Durant is a rookie in 07, Westbrook is a rookie in 08, a junior and a sophomore. Not over.
When the season ends, whether the Oklahoma City Thunder can get the final playoff ticket is the biggest topic of this year!
The stars of the new generation are blooming their brilliance. They are not willing to hide their light and heat under the light of the stars of the Mesozoic generation. Derrick Rose, Li Shihao, and Durant are the leaders of the new generation of stars. Then hit the superstar.
The Minnesota Target Center was full of media and fans, all of whom were waiting for the game between the Timberwolves and the Chicago Bulls to start.
Bruce Lee, a Chinese boy, is facing off against "The Rose of the Windy City" Derrick Rose. In a strong dialogue between the two, who can win the final victory?
Although Derrick Rose has not yet won the league's scoring title and other honors, most players in the league understand the kid's strength, and even Li Shihao is well aware of Rose's offensive ability.
Rose's breakthrough was terrifying, to the point of being monstrous, and he could not slow down during the change of direction. Such a breakthrough put too much pressure on the knee load, but Derrick Rose was able to bear it without changing his face, and Such wonderful breakthrough moves can be performed basically every night.
Li Shihao knows very well that once Derrick Rose goes all out to attack, there are not many players in the league who can stop him.
It is too difficult to put down an All-Star player like Derrick Rose in a one-on-one matchup.
There are many teams in the league that can beat the Chicago Bulls, but there are very few teams that can beat the Chicago Bulls with the strength of their stars. Most of them rely on the overall strength of the team to crush and defeat Derrick Rose.
In terms of offensive strength, Derrick Rose is undoubtedly much better than Li Shihao. If the two were to fight one-on-one, Li Shihao would not be Derrick Rose's opponent, and he would probably be blown up. miserable.
Rose can't solve it just by making a sharp breakthrough. Many defensive experts in the league are helpless, and what can Li Shihao do to limit it?
However, basketball is a five-person game, far from being as simple as a one-on-one bullfight. At least the Timberwolves are better than the Chicago Bulls in terms of overall strength.
Li Shihao is not as good as Derrick Rose in terms of offensive ability, but in terms of comprehensiveness, Li Shihao has won too much, especially in the aspect of organizing offense.
This season, Li Shihao has made the greatest improvement in this area. After the guidance of passing masters such as Steve Nash and Jason Kidd, Li Shihao's passing skills are not only perfect, but at least slightly accomplished.
With the weapon of passing in his hands, Li Shihao will not be too inferior when facing Derrick Rose. At least when he falls behind on the offensive end, he can rely on passing assists to recover his performance.
In this year's All-Star Game, Derrick Rose only scored 8 points, 4 assists and 3 steals. As a rookie, Derrick Rose did not get enough playing time. Take control.
Such encounters naturally aroused collective dissatisfaction among Chicago Bulls fans, who were outraged that their future leader had been treated unfairly.
However, Li Shihao frantically swiped his statistics in the first half of the Western Conference, which changed the impression of head coach George Karl and increased his playing time.
Comparing the two, Li Shihao once again became the fan's outlet, and countless sunspots flooded the Internet, starting the "anti-Li" trend.
It's a pity that there are not many Chinese Americans in the United States. After all, this incident did not cause much repercussions and was forcibly suppressed by the alliance.
The league is counting on the fight between the two young people to earn more ratings and topicality. How could it allow some remarks that destroy the match to mess it up.
Today's Chicago Bulls are somewhat similar to the Cavaliers where the little emperor LeBron James is.
Unlike the Cleveland Cavaliers in previous years, the current Bulls lineup is much more reasonable than the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the depth of the lineup is also much deeper and more solid.
Noah and the others are not comparable to the CBA teammates of the Cavaliers!
Moreover, today's Derrick Rose has not reached the dominance of the little emperor LeBron James in previous years.
Tonight's game will depend on who is better at leading the team between the two stars of the Timberwolves and the Chicago Bulls.
Neither the Timberwolves nor the Chicago Bulls have outstanding defensive capabilities. Compared with the Celtics, Spurs, and Orlando Magic, which are famous for their defense, the Timberwolves and the Chicago Bulls seem a bit mediocre.
When the two teams fight against each other, no one can completely restrain the opponent's rhythm.
The real test is the star's ability to lead the rhythm, whether he can control the game in his own hands, this is the most critical factor affecting the outcome of the game.
Today's Timberwolves have a lot of offensive points, and the distribution is even. Marc Gasol can score. Although Kevin Love's three-pointers are not accurate enough, they can still have a certain threat in the game by virtue of the advantage of high shots and difficult to defend. Sex, no one dares to ignore the firepower of the high fort.
Brewer's cutting ability is also becoming more and more proficient. He is like a sharp knife, entering the enemy's formation can easily disrupt the opponent's defense layout.
Ryan Gomez is the last offensive firepower point. This young guy is transforming into a shooter. He can get a stable shooting rate per game, and his shooting percentage is gradually improving. He can provide the team with a lot of offensive firepower .
It can be said that the current Timberwolves are not a team that relies solely on Li Shihao to score. Li Shihao is more responsible for the team's offensive organization and providing lethal firepower at critical moments.
Compared with Derrick Rose, Li Shihao's heavy responsibility is much easier.
??Derrick Rose knows exactly what Li Shihao wants tonight. What the Minnesota Timberwolves need most at the moment is victory. One game at a time can allow them to get rid of the pursuit of the Oklahoma City Thunder and secure their ticket to the playoffs!
However, Derrick Rose will not allow Li Shihao to easily fulfill his wish. Rose, who was suffocated in the All-Star Game, has obviously reached the limit of his patience.
He has been looking for an opportunity to compete with Li Shihao, but accidents always occur.
However, it will not happen tonight, Li Shihao has no way out, Derek Rose believes that no one will help Li Shihao win this victory, Li Shihao can only rely on himself!
