Welcome to Chicago!
Chen Jie's words actually contained a very obvious provocation. It was a kind of demonstration, just like many veterans like to say to the rookies who have just entered the league against them, "Welcome to the NBA."
Of course, before they say this, they will give the rookie a small lesson.
However, Chen Jie did not want to learn from them on this point. When he said this, he was already preparing to welcome James with victory in this game.
This is a quite crazy attitude. But James is not angry at all. Because he is also the pride of heaven and the darling of the fans, and he understands Chen Jie's mood. And because he is the same.
If he were not at the United Center in Chicago, but at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, James knew that he would be even more outrageous than Chen Jie.
Young and energetic, that's how it should be.
Not only is he not angry, but he actually appreciates it. If Chen Jie plays deep in front of him, he will not like it.
Such a flamboyant confrontation is what I want! James thought in his mind.
That's right, Zhang Yang, that's what Chen Jie wants!
This is a contest that belongs to young people, a contest that belongs to the new forces of the NBA. Representatives of two generations of drafts, when they met for the first time, tacitly reached an agreement, that is, to show the league and the fans.
A new confrontation.
At least, if it lives up to that advertising slogan, who will be the next master?
"The game started. Ilgauskas still had a height advantage over Chandler. This time he won the jump ball easily. Let's see, Mo Williams dribbled the ball past half-court.
, handed the ball to LeBron James. LeBron James is nicknamed the Little Emperor. Chinese fans should be familiar with him. He was the top pick in last year's draft. In fact, there is another interesting point in today's game.
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, three of the starting lineup are from the 2003 generation. Mo Williams, who just took the ball, Pavlovich, who is now facing our Chen Jie, and LeBron, who is holding the ball now.
James, they all entered the league last year. As for the Bulls, in the starting lineup, Chen Jie and Luer Deng were all drafted into the league this year. There is Chris Duhon sitting on the bench.
, and we have been with them for a year. But today's game is also a confrontation between the 03 generation and the 04 generation." In the CCTV live broadcast room, Zhang Weiping also talked about it. This game was not only broadcast live across the United States, but also CCTV.
Will miss it.
What Zhang Weiping said seemed uncoordinated, but in fact, it revealed a central idea. That is, the two teams we faced today, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls, are now particularly young. It can be said that
There are two typical Home Alone teams in the league today.
The starting perimeters of both teams are all first-year and second-year rookies, which is rare in the NBA.
Hinrich, James, Williams, and Pavlovic are four rookies in 2003. Chen Jie and Luer Deng are two rookies in 2004.
They represent the power of the new generation in today's NBA league.
This argument is now very popular not only in China, but also in the United States.
Of course, the representatives of this are LeBron James and Chen Jie.
The confrontation between the two is undoubtedly the focus of today.
James took the initiative to attack on the first ball. Facing Luol Deng's defense, he changed direction and broke into the inside. Although Luol Deng was not thrown away, after the confrontation, he obviously lost his defensive focus. James directly hit the ball.
Hit the shot.
It seems that he feels very good today.
After the ball was scored, James did not immediately return to defense. Instead, he called on his teammates to put pressure on the Bulls' baseline ball, trying to prevent the Bulls from easily launching the baseline ball.
The Cavaliers seemed to pick up the intensity as soon as they started the game.
This is actually because the Bulls' fast-playing whirlwind some time ago was too shocking. Although Skiles has rarely used this tactic in recent games, no team will underestimate the Bulls' trump card.
Hinrich finally caught the ball, then stared at Mo Williams and took six seconds to dribble past half court.
The Bulls' first offense went to Eddie Curry inside.
Chen Jie generally didn't make too many offensive attempts in the first quarter.
This is not because he enters the state at a slow pace, but because Scales deliberately tries to combine inside and outside lines. Therefore, at the beginning, the inside line is basically allowed to find the state first.
Although the two players on the inside have more experience than the three outside players combined, Skiles still trusts the outside players more.
The reasons are, firstly, that Chandler's offensive ability is not strong, and secondly, naturally, Curry is somewhat unreliable.
On the outside, although Hinrich has only played for one year, he is already very calm, organizing and controlling the ball with a general demeanor. Needless to say, Chen Jie is now the number one star of the Bulls and the head of the family.
And Luer Deng, although he was promoted to the starting lineup not long ago, his performance is quite satisfactory.
These three people, in Skiles' view, are the hope and cornerstone of the Bulls' future.
There is no doubt that his current team building mentality is Home Alone!
Maybe it's because the Bulls rested for too long before this game and relaxed a little. The Cavaliers had just finished their game against the Celtics and entered a very fast rhythm.
In the first half of the quarter, the Cavaliers kept suppressing the Bulls.
James's breakthrough and Mo Williams' jump shot blossomed one after another. When the first timeout came, the Cavaliers went on an 8-2 run.
The cheers of the United Center fans were not affected at all. They firmly believed that their team would not admit defeat so easily.
Skiles, on the other hand, did not put too much pressure on these players. He only asked them to adjust during the timeout.
He didn't say anything unnecessary.
In Skiles' view, the Bulls still didn't get nervous.
When the game time slowly passes, the Bulls will enter the state.
There is no need to worry too much. After all, the score difference is not too big, and the game time is still sufficient.
Chen Jie was not too depressed. He looked at the scoreboard, took a sip of his drink, wiped his sweat, and sat calmly on the bench, listening to Scales encouraging the starters.
At this time, next to the female fan who displayed the slogan "Jie, I love you", an oriental woman with picturesque features sat down quietly, her eyes always fixed on Chen Jie on the court.
This is Li Ming'er's first time coming to watch a game.
Because she knows that this game is very important to Chen Jie!
