()(I am at home recently and only come back once every six months, which is not easy. So I waste a lot of time with my family. I will go back on August 1st. I will make up for the updates by then. In addition, because the Internet speed is very slow recently,
The updates are all done at night. I hope you will forgive me for the inconvenience caused. I will go back in four days.)
Buckley, who fell in love with Chen Jie more and more because of the betting incident, did not hesitate to praise him, but at least Chen Jie still couldn't hear these praises. At this moment, he was still sitting on the bench recovering, because what happened next
During the game, you still can’t relax.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, both sides still sent in substitute lineups.
Luer Deng and Du Hong, who are famous in the league for playing fast tornadoes, actually have the biggest gain is confidence. Now they have quite the style of generals on the court. In just half a month, they have transformed from rookies to rookies.
It has evolved into what it is now. Scales is also very satisfied and can't help but feel a little proud.
In the opening game, these two kids were quite unconfident when facing the league's elders, and even showed a little restrained in their performance. Although the fast-playing whirlwind they came up with is now somewhat ineffective in front of the Spurs, it will still be regarded as the Bulls in the future.
One of the team's tactics. Of course, what he is more satisfied with is that this tactic has given this group of young people the confidence they need most. Now, they will not be afraid even if they face the league's powerful players like the Spurs. It should have been
They took at least half a season to train, and now they are gradually beginning to adapt to this league, which makes Skiles happy!
He even has an idea now that he wants Luol Deng to become the starter. In his opinion, Luol Deng is fully qualified for this.
If he becomes the starter, Griffin will have to be taken down.
Griffin was originally a shooting guard and was not good at scoring. On the contrary, his main task on the court was to defend the opponent's scorer. He has always been considered an engineering player. Such a player can be used as a team member, but
Being the main starter is a bit far-fetched.
What's more, he is a bit old and has at most two or three seasons left in his career. Compared with him, Luol and Deng Sheng are still young. If he is given the starting position, the core lineup of the Bulls will be in trouble in the next few years.
No changes are needed, just a little training is enough to compete for the championship.
At the beginning of the season, because Luer, Deng, Chenjie, and Duhong all had no NBA experience, Skiles chose to use Griffin as the starter, which was considered a transition. Now it seems that his mission has been completed.
Through this series of training and games, Skiles has a very good understanding of Luer Deng. In terms of offense, Luer Deng is extremely talented.
Like Grant Hill, Luer Deng has an unusual family background, elegant manners, and gorgeous playing style. Now he is even hailed as the "Second Generation of Devil Mountain" by many fans. Both are intelligent players with a strong sense of the overall situation.
, with various offensive methods. Moreover, Luer Deng has accurate shooting and back-to-the-basket skills. He can definitely share a large part of the scoring pressure for Chen Jie in the future. Moreover, he is very good at handling fast breaks. In the fast break a while ago,
This characteristic was fully exposed in the whirlwind. The only drawback is that he lacks the speed and explosive power necessary for a breakthrough small forward. Luer Deng's understanding of basketball surpasses most players of his age. In Skiles' view, he is more like a dark-skinned man.
Larry Bird. Such a player has great potential and space for development. On the defensive end, Luer Deng was despised because of his thin body. The ones he was most afraid of were Paul Pierce and Bonzie Wells.
This type of strong small forward is good at low-post singles. But after all, he has a 7-foot-1 wingspan, positive attitude and superb basketball iq. I believe that his defensive strength will increase significantly as his body matures.
Thinking of this, Skiles touched his chin and felt a little moved. He was considering whether to make some changes in the next game.
Promote Luol Deng to become the starter and remove Griffin to enrich the bench lineup. Skiles knows that once this decision is made, many people will oppose it. After all, Griffin's efforts and experience are there.
After all, Luer Deng is just a rookie. No one will compare him with Chen Jie.
Chen Jie became the starter in the first game, and no one had any different opinions, because everyone knew that he would be the key player for the Bulls to train for many years to come. Not to mention becoming the starter, even if this season was dedicated to Chen Jie
I'm afraid Chicago fans and Bulls management will also be happy to train.
But Luer Deng is different. Although he is also high in the draft, he does not have the same status as Chen Jie in the Bulls. Now the Bulls have a good momentum and obviously have a chance to hit the playoffs. If it is because of such a change
As a result of the Bulls' decline in performance, many people will stand up and make irresponsible remarks.
Just because they allowed Chen Jie to waste a season training doesn't mean they also allowed Luer Deng to do the same.
After all, Chen Jie will be the star player in the future, while Luer Deng will be the second player at best. How do they compare?
But Skiles had to make this decision. He felt that Luer Deng was now ready to start the game. He now needs more time and more opportunities.
To change or not to change?
Scales hesitated.
On the court, the bench lineups of the Spurs and Bulls were also inseparable.
Under the leadership of Ginobili, the Spurs' substitute lineup is obviously playing very fast in terms of rhythm, and their offensive performance is not inferior to that of the main lineup. As for the Bulls, Duhong and Luer Deng are considered the first and third.
The second offensive point is, and Duhong's offensive ability is very average, so it is basically Luer Deng who scores.
His shot selection is very appropriate, and his shooting percentage is also very good. And his distribution and assists after the breakthrough are very good.
Basketball wisdom.
Skiles off the court saw these four words from Luer Deng.
When Michael Jordan created a dynasty in Chicago, wasn't Scottie Pippen helping him?
I can work hard to be another Zen Master Phil Jackson. Chen Jie can definitely become the next Michael Jordan. Tyson Chandler's rebounding and defense are a bit inferior to Rodman's, but they are definitely enough to cope with the game.
.
So, now, isn’t what we are missing just a Scottie Pippen?
What a coincidence, Michael was the shooting guard and Scott was the small forward.
Now, Chen Jie is also a shooting guard, so shouldn't his Scottie Pippen also be a small forward?
Looking at the entire Bulls team, besides Luol Deng, who else has the potential to become Scottie Pippen at the small forward position?
Besides Luer Deng, who else?
Scales asked himself this question again in his mind, and his somewhat hesitant eyes finally became firm.
I want to build the next Bulls dynasty, so Luol Deng, be my Scottie Pippen.
In the next game, you will be the starter for the Bulls!
Scales finally made up his mind!
At this time, with nine minutes left in the game, the Spurs led 86 to 78 by eight points. Skiles called the first timeout of the fourth quarter!
