Chapter 319 Break the record! The last thing I am afraid of is the suspension!
As Lu Yu led the Bulls to start the offense, the Bulls not only overtook the score in one fell swoop, but also gradually widened the point difference.
Seeing that the game had stabilized the situation, Cartwright felt relieved again in his throat.
The Bulls now have the confidence that no matter how many points they are behind, as long as their players can perform normally, they can get back the score.
The premise is that there must be enough time.
The current team's lineup is actually great. Although the players at each position are not all-star level, they are the most suitable for this Bulls.
Of course, Artest and Brad Miller have been selected to the All-Star reserve team. This is because of the Bulls' record bonus. In terms of their strength alone, there is still a gap between them and real All-Star players.
Let's talk about the bench. As the strongest firepower on the bench, Crawford can often lead the bench gangsters to kill the opponent's bench players in the second quarter.
Ever since Lu Yu started playing power forward, Boozer has become Lu Yu's regular substitute. He gave his opponents a headache every time he was in the rotation.
The most important thing is that it is cheap. Like Lu Yu, he is a child laborer.
The only thing that worries Cartwright is Artest. Artest's performance this season is getting better and better. Even in Artest's limited playing time when he was on the bench last season, he can still guarantee a high enough level.
s efficiency.
This is inseparable from Artest's hard training on weekdays. Even though he is usually idle and a bit silly sometimes, and he also likes to hang out in nightclubs, when training, Artest will never show any signs of laziness.
But, he is just too diligent.
Cartwright should have a headache. Artest's performance has attracted the attention of many teams. In fact, not only Artest, but also the agents of many players on the team will find ways to help them when their values soar.
He is busy signing bigger contracts.
Maybe, next season, many people will leave?
Like the Bulls, the lineup was not dismantled after winning the championship. The main reason is because most of the players are within the contract period. However, many players' contracts will expire next year, and the possibility of keeping all of them if they want to renew their contracts is very small.
.
"Ron, well done!"
The cheers from the players behind him interrupted Cartwright's thoughts. He looked up and saw that Artest shot his opponent in the face from outside the three-point line.
Cartwright looked up at the replay on the big screen above his head.
After Lu Yu broke through, he attracted defensive players to shrink. The Suns' formation was basically compressed to near the three-second zone. Only the basketball could be seen being thrown out from the gap. I don't know how Lu Yu was able to find Artest's position.
, anyway, the basketball fell into Artest’s hands impartially.
Artest made it easy.
Three point hit.
The cooperation between the two of them is really tacit, Cartwright said with emotion.
No, Artest is going to keep Artest no matter what this summer. He is already thinking about how to convince General Manager Krause.
Theoretically, it is possible. At least in the current team, Lu Yu and Boozer are still under child labor contracts.
After Artest scored a three-pointer, the camera was focused on him and Lu Yu, especially the domestic fans, who applauded Lu Yu's pass.
This is the best player in Chinese basketball. Now there are five Chinese players playing in the NBA. It can be predicted that Chinese basketball is developing in a better direction.
As Lu Yu's training camp plan unfolds, more and more outstanding young players will be exposed to the culture of American basketball earlier, which is a good thing for the growth of domestic young players.
In the future, there will be more Chinese faces appearing in NBA games.
Cartwright glanced at the score, then looked at D'Antoni's dark face not far away, and estimated that time was almost up, so he immediately made the decision to make a substitution.
Lu Yu was replaced by Boozer, and Hamilton was replaced by Crawford.
After the substitution, Cartwright sat on the sidelines again and took a break. The players on the court had already found the rhythm of the game, and the Suns' changes were really lackluster. In theory, he did not need to make too many arrangements.
The Suns' offense looks fast, but with only a few players coming and going, it's easy to figure it out.
If it weren't for Stoudemire, this Suns team would actually be nothing to worry about.
But the Bulls have Brad Miller, and Miller can't do anything else. There are ways to deal with this jumping man, even if Miller can't jump high.
Therefore, Cartwright's defensive tactics were not specially arranged.
Stoudemire played very frustrated in this game. It was obvious that his opponent had played very poorly, but the score was still so far behind.
Stoudemire thought he would be the Rookie of the Year last season, but ultimately lost to Yao Ming.
He knows that Lu Yu is the best among Chinese players.
He wanted to prove himself in front of this Chinese player, so as to prove that he was not inferior to Yao Ming.
I have to say that his brain circuit is very novel.
But the result made him feel helpless.
By the fourth quarter, despite the fierce play on the court, it could be seen from the fans starting to leave that the Suns had already lost this game.
"It seems like the Suns can't stop the Bulls."
Zhang Weiping, who was in charge of the commentary, said with a smile: "I don't know any other team in the league that can stop the Bulls. At least the current Suns can't. They have good talent, but they lack an organizer."
"Let us congratulate the Bulls, who are about to win a record-breaking 34th consecutive victory!"
Following his words, the camera turned and focused on Lu Yu who was sitting on the bench. Lu Yu was holding his chin with his right hand in boredom, resting his elbow on his knees. He could only watch today's game because the opponent
The Suns landed a group of players he didn't even know.
No one is paying attention to the Suns' performance now.
More people have begun discussing the Bulls' 34-game winning streak.
Stoudemire, who was sitting not far away, looked at Lu Yu with some envy.
Lu Yu doesn't seem to be much older than him, but he is only a second-year rookie now, and Lu Yu has become the ruler of the league. How did this gap like a chasm come about?
So what was the reason that caused the Suns to lose even their pants? Stoudemire looked at their new head coach D'Antoni.
D'Antoni's tactics were good, running and gunning, but no one passed the ball to me. I just ran and didn't hit the ball at all.
In the final game, the Bulls won the game 115-83.
Won a record-breaking 34 consecutive victories!
After that, every time the Bulls win a game, they will set a new NBA winning streak record. All fans are looking forward to what kind of miracle they can create.
On January 8, the Bulls defeated the Heat again and won 35 consecutive games.
Wade no longer had the excitement he felt when he saw Lu Yu for the first time. After losing the last game, he felt that he was embarrassed in front of Lu Yu. Otherwise, how could Lu Yu only be with Caron Butler after the game?
Embrace.
Lu Yu never thought that Wade was jealous.
He didn't talk to Wade that day, just because firstly, the two players are not in the same position and rarely play against each other, and secondly, Wade didn't mean to say hello.
In fact, Lu Yu wrongly blamed Wade. He didn't mean to say hello, he was just embarrassed.
After all, Wade is just a rookie now, and he is not yet the all-powerful NBA player.
The Heat's interior defense was extremely weak. Lu Yu and Miller played casually in the interior. Lu Yu played 32 minutes and made 9 of 13 shots, 2 of 2 three-pointers, and 6 of 6 free throws. He scored 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists.
Triple-double data.
Odom, who was just traded to the Heat this summer, has tried his best to defend Lu Yu. He and Lu Yu have very similar playing styles. They are both organizational forwards and both are big men. But compared with Lu Yu,
Whether it is his physical qualities such as speed, explosiveness, bounce, or skills such as breakthrough shooting, he is far behind.
What's more, the current Odom is far from the person Lu Yu was when he was at the peak of the Lakers in his previous life. He is too immature.
The Bulls' best performer in this game was not Lu Yu, but Richardson. He threw 7 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 39 points in the game. Artest was envious watching this.
Richardson is becoming more confident as he plays more and more, and he can perform excellent defense and offense without even having to be tempted by Lu Yu before the game.
On January 14, the Bulls defeated the Detroit Pistons 92-80.
Won 38 consecutive wins this season.
Before winning this game against the Pistons, the Bulls also defeated the Trail Blazers and Hornets.
The game against the Pistons was the Bulls' lowest score this season. Lu Yu also had a head-on confrontation with Ben Wallace in the paint for the first time. This feeling was different from the collision between Duncan and Nowitzki. They were
He can attack and defend, but Ben Wallace only focuses on defense. All his attention is focused on Lu Yu, as if Lu Yu has slept with his woman.
Lu Yu played very hard and only scored 17 points, which was also Lu Yu's lowest score of the season.
But the Bulls still won, thanks to the outstanding performance of the role players. Hamilton scored 23 points and 3 assists. This made Lu Yu couldn't help but feel lucky. If Hamilton still came to the Pistons according to the trajectory of his previous life, then it would be the Bulls who lost the game.
.
On January 16, the Bulls played away to Memphis and lost to the Grizzlies, and their winning streak stopped at 38 games.
This is the Bulls' first game against the Grizzlies this season. The Grizzlies, who were still a weak team last season, have undergone a transformation, but no one would have thought that they would end the Bulls' winning streak.
In fact, this incident was foreshadowed.
The Grizzlies started this season with a gorgeous record of 7-1, and this momentum has not stopped at all. They are currently ranked sixth in the Western Conference and have become a hot team in the league.
The key to the Grizzlies' historic breakthrough was that they turned the Pyramid Arena into the most terrifying road game in the league.
Head coach Hubie Brown's 10-man rotation has become a hot topic around the league as his team continues to win.
The Grizzlies also began to be called the "Comeback Boys," as they won 14 games after trailing at the end of the third quarter.
Hubie Brown has also become the most popular candidate for the best head coach this season.
Their general manager, the logo man, Jerry West also has a chance to be elected the best general manager.
Another reason is that the Bulls have been winning, and the players' mentality has been tense. After losing this game, the players' tense emotions can be relaxed.
The Grizzlies were like the final saw that broke the tight string.
There was also an episode during the game, which was one of the reasons why the Bulls lost the game.
Lu Yu originally played against Gasol. When he didn't play against Gasol before, he thought that Gasol was just a big player. After playing against him, he realized that Gasol was a big man this season.
Growing up too fast.
Therefore, for a lot of time during the game, Lu Yu would resume his small forward style of play, trying to recover the lagging score.
But Lu Yu met Bunky Wells, a great guy!
To be honest, the Grizzlies' team building idea is a bit imitated by the Bulls. It's not that the player configuration is similar, but that there are many thorns in the team.
For example, Bunky Wells, James Posey, Mike Miller.
Lu Yu's impression of Bunky Wells was from when he was with the Rockets in his previous life. At that time, he only knew that he was a bitch, but he didn't expect him to be such a jerk.
When playing small forward, Lu Yu does not ask for the ball in the low post to support his teammates like he does when playing power forward. He returns to the small forward position and prefers to break through with the ball from the outside. His playing style is somewhere between a shooting guard and a small forward.
As soon as Bunky Wells saw Lu Yu's breakthrough, he suddenly stretched out his leg and tripped Lu Yu down. Lu Yu rolled twice on the floor before he could stand up.
After the game, many fans scolded Bunch Wells for being shameless and doing something dirty to prevent Lu Yu.
Many Chinese fans among them took screenshots of videos of Chinese players being unfairly treated on the court in the past two seasons. In addition to Lu Yu being tripped by stretching his foot, there were also cases where Bowen tried to step on Lu Yu and Wang Zhizhi in last year's playoffs.
He was elbowed by O'Neal, Yao Ming was slapped in the face by his opponent when he dunked, and even Yi Jianlian was deliberately kicked in the calf by Lewis during team training.
For a time, posts about whether yellow players were discriminated against in the NBA exploded on the Internet.
Of course, Lu Yu's magazines and sports websites are among the contributors. When he has the weapon of public opinion, he naturally has to use it to defend himself.
However, Lu Yu did not suffer any loss during the game. He stood up and rushed directly to Wells, but was hugged tightly by Richardson.
Shane Battier of the Grizzlies frowned. He and Lu Yu had some friendship. The key was that he knew that Lu Yu was very good at playing. Even though Bunchy Wells was so strong, he really couldn't beat Lu Yu.
Perhaps Lu Yu has not taken action for too long, and many players in the league have forgotten that Lu Yu can fight.
Richardson hugged Lu Yu because Lu Yu had been suspended for fighting before. It was wrong for Bunchy Wells to interfere, but there would definitely be penalties from the league afterwards.
But when Lu Yu went up to take action, things became serious.
It's a pity that Richardson hugged Lu Yu, but forgot that there was Artest. He had been focusing on Lu Yu to prevent Lu Yu from going up to fuck him. Bunch Wells suddenly felt a punch
The wind howled, and immediately I felt a sharp pain in my jaw.
"ah!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and a tooth fell out.
When Richardson saw that the fight was about to begin, he didn't stop Lu Yu. He went up to hold Wells down and shouted, "Don't fight, stop fighting." He was obviously off guard.
The Grizzlies were originally a bunch of pricks, but when it comes to the Bulls, are their pricks still a problem?
Lu Yu raised his fist and punched Wells in the face with a "bang".
"You think I don't dare to fight back because I'm afraid of being suspended? Let me tell you, the thing I'm not afraid of the most is suspension!"
In the eyes of Bonzi Wells, players like Lu Yu who hold child labor contracts are most afraid of being suspended because they will lose a lot of money due to suspension. But how did he know that the most important thing for Lu Yu is money.
After the game, some fans began to discuss whether Lu Yu's beating was right or not, and whether he needed to be suspended.
Discussions on the issue of discrimination against yellow players in the NBA began to ferment online, leading to discussions like the ones above.
When NBA President David Stern saw that something was wrong with this situation, if the discussion continued, it would not just be discrimination on the court. What was the point of making such a fuss?
So he gave Lu Yu a one-game suspension without any pain, but then suspended Bonzi Wells for two games, and fined Wells a large amount of money.
As for the reason, is that action unsportsmanlike enough?
