Chapter 292 It seems that he can't catch up with Lu Yu
When Lu Yu won his first game against the Magic and was about to go home to celebrate with Annie.
Annie told him bad news: she was going out to film a movie.
After her first drama was broadcast, she became famous and became a famous little girl in the United States. Before, she only played a supporting role in "Princess Diaries". This time, "Princess Diaries 2" started filming, and the director decided
Let her play the heroine.
The main reason is that after the first "Princess Diaries" was broadcast, Scarlett Johansson's performance was not good. Many fans did not buy it and felt that she was not suitable to play the heroine.
After Anne Hathaway became famous, many people discovered Anne in "The Princess Diaries". Everyone thought that if Anne played the heroine, she would be more suitable than Scarlett.
This also became an opportunity for Anne to star in "Princess Diaries 2".
Anne Hathaway was very frustrated. She felt that it was too sudden and she didn't even have a long rest. Mainly, she had to leave without being with Lu Yu for a long time. She felt that the news was too bad.
Lu Yu comforted her: "Go, I can bear the pain of loneliness alone!"
Annie's heart softened and she was about to refuse the crew's request. Lu Yu was so frightened that he quickly said: "It just so happens that I have to play in the playoffs during this period and I don't have time to accompany you. You can just go to filming and wait until I play this year."
After the game, I will go to the set to see you."
Anne Hathaway reluctantly agreed.
For Anne Hathaway, leaving Lu Yu is bad news, but for Lu Yu, this is great news.
After Annie left the next day, Lu Yu felt liberated.
He looks very much like a man who behaves wildly at home after his wife returns to her parents' home.
After resting for a day, Lu Yu lay on the bed, opened his system panel and took a look.
[Host: Lu Yu]
[Water breathing method: 90%]
[Thunder Breathing Technique: 90%]
[Fire Breathing Method: 81%]
[Wind breathing method: 60%]
[Rock breathing method: 20%]
Breathing of Water and Breathing of Thunder stopped growing after they both stopped at 90%, and Breathing of Wind also stayed at 60%. This made all the confrontation in the playoffs wasted, and only Breathing of Fire could grow.
The Breathing Technique of Law and Rock, and the Breathing Technique of Flame are estimated to stop increasing after they increase to 90%.
And the Rock Breathing Technique... is still growing slowly.
It seems like we need to find a way to play power forward.
The confrontations that the small forward can face are too limited. In the regular season, he can sneak in and switch defenses with Boozer. In the playoffs, Cartwright will never allow himself to mess around.
The opportunities to increase Rock Breathing by defending inside are becoming less and less.
Suddenly, Lu Yu's cell phone rang.
Lu Yu glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Jessica Alba. He suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Jessica, what's wrong?" Lu Yu asked cautiously.
Jessica couldn't hold back the joy in her heart: "Lu, I have completed all the courses this year and took an early vacation. It just so happens that you are playing in the playoffs. I am going to fly to Chicago to be with you."
Lu Yu: "..."
An aunt just left, and now another one has arrived, making it difficult for people to be clean.
"What's wrong, you don't want me to go?" Jessica Alba asked with a pout.
"No."
Lu Yu cheered up: "Of course I welcome it, but my recent schedule is quite tight, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you."
"It's okay. You have to play in the playoffs for a long time. It's okay for me to be alone in Spokane. As for work, I can work remotely from Chicago."
"Okay, then when will you come over?"
Lu Yu couldn't find a reason to refuse.
"Tomorrow, I'll fly to Chicago tomorrow." Jessica didn't want to wait a day longer: "I know you have a game against the Magic tomorrow, so you don't have to pick me up. Snoopy will arrange for someone to take me there, and I'll go directly
Just go to the arena and watch your game."
"Okay, see you tomorrow then."
Lu Yu hung up the phone and sighed secretly, forget it, leaving Jessica alone in Spokane for so long.
It's time to stay with her.
…
On April 24, the Bulls and Magic played their second game.
Prior to this, the Spurs and the Suns in the Western Conference had already tied with a 1-1 score. In the second game, the Mavericks easily won the Warriors again, with the score reaching 2-0. The Warriors had no choice but to return to their home court and play again.
Think of ways to.
The other two teams in the Western Conference, like the Bulls, only played one game. The Timberwolves lost to the Lakers by a huge score in the first game.
98 to 117
The Lakers, who had been weak for a season, finally showed their fangs in the playoffs. During this period, O'Neal, who had been scolded miserably, wreaked havoc on the basket inside the Timberwolves, spreading all his anger on the Timberwolves.
Garnett was speechless. It was Lu Yu who caused you to be scolded. Why are you venting your anger on me?
There is also no suspense in the other game between the Kings and Jazz.
The Jazz's Xuan Ming is really old. Although they have been able to make the playoffs in the past few years, they have always struggled in the first round. Malone's iron elbow has not been able to stop the cooperation of Divac and Webber.
The score of 96 to 90 confirmed this.
The Kings took the lead in the first game.
As for the Eastern side, the Pistons finally defeated the Bucks in the second game. Reed was an indispensable player. The Pistons made special defensive arrangements for him this time. Reed's magic was no longer there. In the end, the Pistons beat 89 to 77.
Achieve victory.
The super low score also caused the ratings of this series to plummet.
NBA Commissioner David Stern scratched his head when he saw such a game. If the Pistons were allowed to reach the Finals, the NBA would probably go bankrupt within a few years.
The Nets also defeated the Celtics, bringing the score to 2-0. The score of 104-95 also let fans know the disparity in strength between the two teams.
Another group of 76ers also played only one game against the Hornets.
The 76ers defeated the Hornets 98-90.
The Hornets are still young, their player configuration is good, and Baron Davis also has enough strength. He was an All-Star last year, and now he has not grown a beard.
Davis' performance this season is mediocre, averaging only 17.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game.
It looks good, but when it comes to the boss of a team, it seems a bit not good enough. Fortunately, with the help of David West, their record in the regular season is pretty good.
But when it comes to the playoffs, the disadvantage of insufficient star quality is revealed.
Iverson is far more powerful than Baron Davis and plays a more aggressive game.
However, this is only the first game of the series. The two teams are evenly matched in strength, and it is still unclear who will win and who will lose.
But in the second game between the Bulls and the Magic, who loses and who wins, the fans are like Mirror.
No matter in terms of tactics or player abilities, even if the Magic steal a victory from the Bulls, their season will not be in vain.
There is no shame in being swept, after all, this is the Bulls with 77 wins.
Jordan led the Bulls with Pippen and Rodman to 72 wins in the regular season, and both won championships. What's more, Lu Yu led... Forget it, the Bulls' current lineup is actually pretty good.
They may not be famous enough, compared to the old guys like Payton, Malone, and Stockton, but they are younger and have strength.
Their style of play may not attract fans, but it is practical.
For example, when fans watch Hamilton running around the field, they always feel like they are watching a long-distance race. However, when he scores a mediocre goal, fans will be surprised to find that such a goal can actually win the team.
Key ball.
There is also Richardson. Many fans say that he is not a competent point guard. His passing is far worse than Kidd, but few people see him never being sloppy after halftime.
After the court, he threw the ball to Lu Yu, then lurked at the three-point point where he was good at, waiting for the ball to be received, and then threw the ball into the damn basket.
And Boozer, a rookie.
But he became a starter in a team like the Bulls. He didn't look like a rookie at all, but more like a veteran who had been working hard in the league for many years. This made many teams regret it. You have to know how such a player could be in the second team.
Round selected?
Not to mention Brad Miller, he has always been the most stable point of this team. He may not be as dominant as O'Neal, but he is... enough.
All-star level strength, but his reputation is far lower than his strength.
It has to be said that although such a Bulls team is not as luxurious as the 72-win Bulls, in terms of strength, it will definitely not be inferior.
In the second game between the Bulls and the Magic, when Lu Yu looked to the sidelines, he saw Jessica, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Also, Yi Jianlian?
Lu Yu suddenly remembered that Yi Jianlian should be here for a tryout. During this period, his attention was focused on the Bulls' 77 wins. It was only a while ago that he learned that Yi Jianlian had ended his NCAA trip this year.
In March Madness, Yi Jianlian led Gonzaga to the semifinals.
Although he finally lost to Syracuse led by Carmelo Anthony, this year's NCAA allowed Yi Jianlian to grow a lot.
This year's NCAA not only has Melo, who will be the leader in the future, but also Wade, who quietly went to the NBA to win the championship at Marquette University. Yi Jianlian also got their recognition in the game with them, and even more
Carmelo Anthony has developed a frenemy-frenemy relationship.
Yi Jianlian, who led Gonzaga to the semi-finals, also attracted the attention of NBA teams. Many teams invited him for trial training, and the Bulls were the first one Yi Jianlian agreed to.
Of course, with the draft picks in the Bulls' hands, it seems a bit fanciful to select Yi Jianlian.
But Yi Jianlian still came. He mainly wanted to see Lu Yu and watch Lu Yu's games. He always wanted to follow in Lu Yu's footsteps, but Lu Yu improved too fast. In his first year in the NBA, he led the Bulls to a
He reached the finals and led the Bulls to a record-breaking 77 wins this year.
Lu Yu performed well in this game, scoring a triple-double of 37 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. Not only that, but McGrady was defended and only scored 21 points. When McGrady played like this, it would be difficult for the Magic not to lose.
.
At the end of the game, the Bulls defeated the Magic with a score of 121 to 96.
Another victory at home also brought the score of this series to 2-0. Although McGrady didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that even if they returned to the Magic's home court, it would be difficult for the Magic to win against the Bulls. The strength of both sides
The difference is really too big.
Jessica applauded Lu Yu excitedly, her hands were swollen, and the sound of snapping could not be heard.
Yi Jianlian was also applauding, but while applauding, he gradually felt a little disappointed.
