The nightclub incident passed quickly, and Lu Yu just regarded it as a minor incident in Los Angeles.
Next they will fly to Houston to play the Rockets away.
Two days before playing the Rockets, Lu Yu locked himself in the training hall and did not have any contact with the outside world. When all the Bulls players saw Lu Yu so curled up, they could only continue to accompany Lu Yu.
The focus of Lu Yu's training is how to break out of double teams.
After the Lakers' tactic came out, other teams will definitely imitate it. In the future, the defenses Lu Yu will face will definitely have such scenes frequently, so Lu Yu must learn how to break double teams.
First of all, we need to make it clear that we should not stop the ball easily. There is no road ahead, so Lu Yu can just walk to the left, right, or even back, but do not stop the ball.
Secondly, try not to go to some places.
For example, the four bottom corners of the court, the sideline and the bottom line will form an angle, which is equivalent to a natural defensive trap and an excellent double-teaming area for the defender.
Also, when you are at the midline, you cannot be in the sideline area of the court. Although there is no bottom line, the offensive team cannot dribble back to the court, otherwise it will lose the ball.
In order to expand the defensive area, there will be some gaps between the defenders. "Sneaking through the gaps" will be a good breakthrough. Lu Yu will use this trick when facing double teams in the NCAA. The main purpose of this trick is not to be afraid of mistakes and dare to When the ball breaks through, if the opponent makes a move, a foul may be required to regain the opportunity to organize the offense.
But the NBA is not the NCAA, and the defense here is stronger.
Therefore, Lu Yu needs to predict the opponent's defensive intentions in advance, call on his teammates to come over for pick-and-roll cooperation, and use the screen to create mismatches to disrupt the opponent's defensive deployment.
After Lu Yu finished practicing, he felt he had improved.
Although playing the game this way will consume more energy, there is no way. The Bulls only have Lu Yu as their core. Fortunately, the last game against the Lakers and two days of training improved his wind breathing method by 2%.
[Host: Lu Yu]
[Water breathing method: 75%]
[Thunder Breathing Technique: 70%]
[Fire Breathing Method: 60%]
[Wind breathing method: 34%]
Lu Yu looked at the system panel and sighed helplessly, when will everything be 100%?
He really wanted to be invincible in the NBA, and then pretend to touch Kobe's head and say: "How lonely it is to be invincible."
But this stupid system actually made me work hard. Aren’t other people’s systems always a win-win situation? Aren’t they always getting something for nothing? Why do you have to work hard when you come to me?
wipe!
Complaints are complaints and training cannot stop.
In the last fight, O'Neal was suspended by the league for three games and fined $15,000, while Miller was suspended for one game and fined $7,500.
NBA regulations stipulate that any act of punching an opponent on the court will automatically result in a one-game suspension. However, NBA senior vice president Stu Jackson said that because O'Neal has been harassed by smaller players for many years, he has no feelings for this tall player. The 7-foot-2, 350-pound center is a free agent.
Therefore, O'Neal was eventually punished and suspended for two games.
What depresses him the most is that he lost to Miller after drinking, and now he has to pay Miller's fine and the income from the suspended game.
Also, Miller became famous because of this fight.
O'Neal became the target of ridicule by the fans. He felt aggrieved, but he had reconciled with Miller and could not continue to scold him.
In the end, O'Neal thought of a move. In an interview, he said: "Miller told me that because I punched him and he fought back, he was fined a lot of money. This money may come to me."
It was nothing, but it was a big expense for him, so I decided to pay all the fines for him."
Miller was undrafted. Although he has performed well, this is actually only his third year in the league.
This made O'Neal's reputation significantly improve.
But soon, this news was quickly overwhelmed by another news...
On December 5, the Bulls and Rockets played a game in Houston. As Lu Yu expected, Lu Yu was surrounded by Francis and Mobley from the beginning of the third quarter.
In the third quarter, the Bulls held on for a while. After all, they had a nearly 20-point lead in the first half, but in the fourth quarter, the Bulls could no longer hold on.
A thousand miles away.
In the end, the Rockets won the game with a slight advantage of 3 points.
At the end of the game, Cartwright sighed helplessly. Fortunately, Brad Miller was suspended for one game. Miller will be able to return in the next home game against the Magic. By then, even if Lu Yu faces Bao
Clamp, the pressure will not be so great.
During the post-match interview, Lu Yu thought that reporters would ask some harsh questions, and he was already prepared to take all the responsibility for the loss.
This time, we can’t let our teammates and coaches take responsibility for anything we say.
The reporter's first question: "Lu, regarding the rescue incident at the entrance of the Los Angeles bar, was it really you and Kobe who did it?"
"For the loss of this game..."
Lu Yu was suddenly startled: "Wait a minute, could you please repeat the question just now?"
The reporter repeated: "Lu, regarding the rescue incident at the entrance of the Los Angeles bar, was it really you and Kobe who did it?"
Lu Yu was stunned. He didn't know that during the two days he was training in seclusion, the outside world had already spread the news about the fight to save people that day.
The fight to save someone caused an uproar in the United States, because the person who was beaten was Kristen Stewart, a child star who starred in the fantasy TV movie "The Little Mermaid" and the movie "Fetish", and the person who saved the person was an NBA player.
Stars Kobe Bryant and Lu Yu.
Originally, it was just Stewart's parents who stood up to denounce school violence. Their daughter was popular among her classmates at school because of her appearance in the movie, which also aroused some jealousy.
So a little girl called her friends whom she met in society and gave Stewart a severe lesson.
If two people hadn't come to the rescue at that time, it's hard to imagine how Stewart would have been beaten that day.
And everyone immediately discovered that the two people who saved the life were Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers and Lu Yu of the Chicago Bulls.
Lu Yu was also confused.
He was clearly saving a little boy, so why did he turn into a "human spanner" who was just eleven years old?
Wrench was a tomboy growing up?
Lu Yu didn't know that at this time, Stewart had just played a tomboy who caused a lot of trouble for a single mother in the independent film "Fetishism".
Her hairstyle and many behavioral habits have not yet emerged from the drama.
Lu Yu answered the reporter's questions perfunctorily. He still learned these things from the reporter. He was still confused, but he did say a few words about the school bullying mentioned by the reporter.
Because campus bullying existed not only in the United States, but also in his memory.
He was still young at the time, and if it wasn't for school bullying, his parents would not have sent him to boxing, but he never expected that he would become a professional boxer as soon as he started practicing.
"If children encounter bullying, they must stay calm and adopt roundabout tactics to delay as much time as possible."
"When necessary, call for help from passers-by and use abnormal actions to attract the attention of people around you."
"Personal safety always comes first, don't anger the other person."
"Speak according to what the other person says, find topics that can be inserted into their words, lighten the atmosphere, distract the other person's attention, gain trust at the same time, and buy time for yourself."
"Children who have had this kind of experience should go to and from school together as much as possible."
Finally, Lu Yu sighed and said:
"If, by any chance, bullying occurs, parents must provide psychological counseling to their children in time, because for the children, bullying may be a lifelong shadow."
Lu Yu's words did not arouse applause in the room, and all the reporters fell silent.
They are reporters, but they may also be the parents of their children, or they may be the parents of their children in the future, or they may have had such an experience when they were young, but they were not as lucky as Stewart to meet Kobe and Lu Yu.
Such a courageous person.
The reporter's silence represents silent thinking.
And their actions will become a tangible force. Whether it is sports media, politics, people's livelihood, or even entertainment media across the United States, they will speak out for this matter.
Scarlett Johansson said in an interview: "I hope bullying will stay away from all children. Lu Yu has done a great job. Lu Yu will be my idol from now on. I like you, Lu Yu."
Damn, I didn’t forget to confess my love at this time.
Charlize Theron also said to reporters: "Let these bullies accept punishment!"
She didn't express her love, but just sent a text message to Lu Yu. The text message was very simple, with only two words: "Great!"
Jessica wrote a report about bullying directly in "Sport" magazine. It was not only about Stewart, but also many bullying incidents that had not been exposed. They were also disclosed one by one. The cruel facts were shocking.
But Anne Hathaway just stared at the newspaper blankly.
Her eyes were filled with tears.
It wasn't until the director called her to film that she wiped away her tears, stood up, straightened her back and walked into the set.
…
Naturally, NBA officials would not let go of such a great opportunity to build the NBA's image. Many stars who had nothing to do with Lu Yu came forward to support Lu Yu and Kobe.
Among them is Jordan.
Boss Qiao even publicly apologized to Lu Yu, saying that he had misunderstood Lu Yu before. He admired Lu Yu's performance in this matter and hoped to have the opportunity to apologize to Lu Yu in person in the future.
It's impossible to apologize in person, it's just a show of words.
But Lu Yu's image was suddenly reversed.
Wang Zhizhi and his Mavericks teammates also supported Lu Yu's behavior. Now Wang Zhizhi has established a firm foothold in the Mavericks, averaging 9 points and 7 rebounds per game.
Subsequently, Anta's sales in the United States skyrocketed, leaving Ding Shizhong, who still had not heard the news in China, a little confused.
The Bulls players returned to Chicago. As soon as they got off the plane, Lu Yu received a call. When he saw the name on the caller ID, he couldn't help but smile bitterly——
It's Kobe.
"Lu Yu, there was a little trouble about the fight that day." Kobe's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Yu was stunned. There was good news in the past two days, how could there be trouble?
What Kobe said next made Lu Yu completely confused.
"It's an invitation from the Anti-Bullying Motorcycle Alliance."
