Chapter 269 Imperfect Year 00

John Lucas also said at the post-match press conference that the Cavaliers played their own blood and character, and they just lost to the referee. If those few sentences were fair, the Bulls would definitely not win. This argument would have to be more brainless than IQ. Fortunately, John Lucas did not play in S's godfather's era. If he were there, this guy would definitely be suspended and lost after playing a few games. A basketball star? No. 1 pick in the draft? Haha.

If Miller's attempts were not that small in this game, the Cavaliers would not necessarily lose. In this game, except for Li Lei, the performance of the Bulls can only be described as ordinary, but the Cavaliers are even more ordinary, so the Bulls won.

This game did not cause any major public opinion. Although John Lucas was the No. 1 pick in the draft in 1976, after him, Robert Parish, Adrian Dantley and others, no one was better than him. Those people had championships and All-Stars, unlike him who had nothing but the best team in a rookie season. This guy was the earliest No. 1 pick. Of course, his water was caused by himself.

After playing against the Cavaliers, the Bulls can rest for a day and then face the last opponent of the Bucks in 2000 at home. Ray Allen was unable to play in the duel with the Bulls due to injury, which made many fans feel that winning the Bucks is not a big problem. After all, the opponent lacks a super scorer.

But facts often develop contrary to imagination, and this game gives a full interpretation.

Without Ray Allen's ball rights, Big Dogs and Kassel played very comfortably. In addition to them, Reed actually played miraculously as Ray Allen's substitute.

Facing Richardson, a three-nothing player, Reed became the most stable point on the Bucks' outside. He is better than Ray Allen without the ball, and Ray Allen can also play without the ball. However, in the Bucks' career over the years, this guy prefers to play with the ball. This is why Big Dogs have been working with him for so long for so long, except for last season, all other failures are the reasons.

As a substitute, Reed is naturally not as big as Ray Allen. Basically, his goals are back-running, empty cuts, etc., and rarely attack with the ball, which makes the Bulls' outside defense very uncomfortable. It is impossible for them to double-team Reed because the threat of Cassel and the Big Dog is too great.

Li Lei's performance was still very stable. Brand and Richardson started sleepwalking in this game, especially Brand, who took 6 shots in the first half and scored only 2 points. This 1999 No. 1 pick has been worse than the other game recently.

Could it be that this guy is playing himself? Li Lei was watching Brand in the lounge at the halftime, and there was no reason. What are the benefits of his acting? If there is good data, it becomes a fantasy to get a big contract.

Brand did not explain, he was not a guy who likes to talk, which made the situation even more difficult. Li Lei breathed a sigh of relief. This is the NBA. Compared to NCAA, the people here are not as pure as the latter, because their every move is linked to the US dollar. Li Lei asked the masseur to massage, and the others didn't say much.

Tim Floyd was on the side, just like no one, he knew that the Bulls would not execute their contracts, and other teams in the league had never given olive branches. Even if the Bulls have a current record as the league, it would be useless. Everyone knows what the Bulls can achieve such a transformation.

The second half of the game began in this silence. Li Lei faced Sam Kassel and broke through the opponent with Parker. However, Big Dog came to Li Lei's scoring position in time. Li Lei cursed in his heart and could only pass the ball out. Big Dog usually does not defend, but it does not mean that he cannot defend. This guy has the conditions and awareness of defense. He just likes to score points more than defense. Now without Lei Allen, he assumes the responsibility of the team, which is something George Carl did not expect.

Li Lei passed the ball to Brand. Facing Elvin Johnson's backup defense, Brand still chose to dunk hard. As a result, the ball dunked to the basket's neck, and the strength was too high. The rebound was grabbed by the Bucks, and they launched a fast attack. Fortunately, the Bulls retreated and defended in time to resolve the attack.

Without Ray Allen, the Bucks are more holistic, which is something that fans have not expected. Basketball is not as simple as imagined. It is difficult to determine the outcome based on things on paper alone, because many irresistible objective factors will occur during the game.

The Bulls played very passively. Brand played diarrhea, which made the Bulls suffer greatly. Although he replaced him and replaced Miller, Miller could not make up for Brand's shortcomings in some aspects. Chandler could play at the power forward position, but it was not comfortable to play. Whether it was Tim Thomas or Anthony Mason Jr., Chandler could not keep up with Chandler in the footsteps, but Miller's footsteps were slower, so Chandler could only hold on.

Anthony Mason made a high-profile ball at the top of the arc, and Alston, who cut to the inside, got the score. The Bucks played very relaxedly and had all the fun came out. The Bulls could only passively get beaten. Li Lei was double-teamed by the Bucks. Miller's cover was resolved by the Bucks. They just stopped Miller and refused to let him cover. Chandler could not get out at all. Without cover, Li Lei was a toothless tiger.

Moreover, the Bucks are not just defense. They are constantly consuming Li Lei's physical strength. Physical strength has always been a shortcoming that he has not improved. George Carl obviously did his homework in this game. Li Lei, who played the guest coach, obviously could not think so much. After all, he is a player, and the first thing he thinks about is his own performance.

Without physical strength, no matter what skill is released, its power will be greatly reduced, which is simply a worse problem for the bull.

Brand was wandering around the bench, and no one knew what he was thinking. Jerry Klaus and Reinsdorf didn't know what he was saying. Both of them saw Brand's performance.
