Today's McGrady, the McGrady in the 2004-05 season, is definitely the most powerful McGrady!
The season that created McGrady's moment was also the pinnacle of McGrady's entire career.
If there are four words to describe Tracy McGrady's performance this season, then Chen Jie can think of only, omnipotent!
Yes, he can do anything. Chen Jie still vaguely remembers that at this time in his previous life, when he was watching NBA with a few classmates, he watched Tracy McGrady on the TV. He scored as if he were trying to get something out of a million soldiers. Watching Tracy McGrady rebound, steal and assist.
When we were shoulder-to-shoulder, they once said something, that is, with Tracy McGrady on the court, we are very solid.
Because as long as McGrady is willing, he can do anything!
Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, you can imagine what kind of strength McGrady has at this time.
And facing such a McGrady, how much pressure is on Chen Jie at this moment.
If McGrady didn't want to waste too much energy on the defensive end, Chen Jie knew that his game would be the most ugly game in the entire season.
Fortunately, McGrady did not put too much energy into defending Chen Jie.
However, not investing too much experience does not mean that Tracy McGrady will not guard against him.
He just didn't try his best to prevent Chen Jie from dying. In his opinion, a few restrictions would be enough.
With those long arms spread out, McGrady was able to block almost all of Chen Jie's breakthrough routes. Coupled with the constant body contact, Chen Jie had no way to break through McGrady's defense, which was not fully committed.
For the first time, Chen Jie finally saw what the power of a superstar is. Although he once had the experience of fighting against Kobe and Iverson, after all, at that time, Chen Jie, Kobe and Iverson were not matched up.
The only star that Chen Jie has ever played against is James, but the current James has actually not reached his peak period yet.
Therefore, facing Tracy McGrady this time, it was the first time that Chen Jie faced off one-on-one with a superstar at his peak. Under such a challenge, Chen Jie's first initiative to break through had no effect.
During the entire offensive process, Chen Jie did not pass the ball, but only focused on the physical contact with McGrady and the change of direction. However, in the end, Chen Jie failed to break through McGrady's defense, and could only use McGrady's interference to make a pass.
A hurried mid-range jumper to end the drive.
Chen Jie's failed attempt made him very upset.
However, he has no regrets. Such is Chen Jie's character. It seems that Chen Jie's performance is actually worthy of being called a superstar.
But the reason why people still call Chen Jie now a new star instead of a superstar is actually because of Chen Jie’s character who is easily stimulated.
To put it bluntly, Chen Jie is not mature enough now. Maybe his performance on the court is enough to be called a superstar. But many times, basketball is not only about the performance on the court, but also many things outside the court.
It also determines a player's strength.
For example, some psychological tactics, such as the attitude towards the media, such as private life and so on, all determine a player's final positioning.
One of Chen Jie's current shortcomings is that he is easily defeated by the opponent's psychological tactics and then falls into the trap created by the opponent.
Countless examples have proven this, and there is no need to list them all now.
And today, this ball was actually because of what McGrady said to Chen Jie before the game, which once again hit Chen Jie's breaking point and gave Chen Jie the idea of competing with McGrady. This ball was played extremely badly.
reasonable.
Skiles started scratching his head along with Van Gundy. He had just told Duhong to pass the ball more and lead the ball more. Unexpectedly, less than a minute after he finished explaining, Chen Jie, the team's number one star, didn't even have the ball.
Pass, the ball has been in his hands for twenty-four seconds, dribbling, dribbling, and finally he made a jump shot.
But Chen Jie and Du Hong are different. Chen Jie now has a high and stable status in the Bulls, and Skiles has no way to threaten Chen Jie.
Even though Scales said one or two things about Chen Jie and scolded Chen Jie once or twice, with Chen Jie's temper, he would definitely not refute it.
In this respect, Chen Jie's approach has been very satisfactory to Scales.
But can Scales be scolded?
Not to mention that scolding Chen Jie may make Chen Jie feel bad. Given Chen Jie's current status, Scales cannot scold him.
There are some things that I can only talk to Chen Jie privately and explain.
Again, he is different from Duhong. Duhong is only a starter, and he only got the chance to start because of Hinrich's suspension. Skiles scolded him. Fans, reporters, including people on the team,
They all thought it was nothing.
But if Chen Jie is scolded, first of all, the fans at the scene will definitely boo, which will have a bad impact on the Bulls' momentum. Then the reporters will repay the favor in a large space. There will be overwhelming rumors about the rift between the generals. Skiles is very
I believe in their ability, and the team has always been centered around Chen Jie. Now that the coach has scolded Chen Jie, everything will definitely be in chaos.
For various reasons, plus Chen Jie is also a very independent person with his own ideas, how could Scales just scold him casually?
Therefore, although he had no choice but to endure it this time, Scales could only endure it.
The three people in the CCTV broadcast room were still speaking for Chen Jie.
"Although Chen Jie played this ball unreasonably, there is nothing wrong with trying his hand at the beginning!" Yu Jia said, obviously trying to excuse Chen Jie.
Next to him, Yang Yi also nodded and continued: "Chen Jie's attack is a bit too unique, but as the leader of the team and as the core, there is nothing wrong with playing like this. In an away game, in the first few minutes,
It is still very critical. Chen Jie needs to use a beautiful goal at this time to give a signal to the other players on the team, a signal that we will not give in today! Although the goal was not scored, the goal was still achieved!
"
Neither of these two people are fans of Chen Jie, let's put it that way, let alone Chen Jie's idiot fan Zhang Weiping.
Not only did he not feel that Chen Jie had done anything wrong, but he was very dissatisfied with Chen Jie being guarded by Tracy McGrady, and was also very dissatisfied with Chen Jie's teammates.
Zhang Weiping said angrily: "In fact, you can't blame Chen Jie for this ball. McGrady's defense has never been good. The reason why he was able to defend this ball is that Chen Jie has not adapted to McGrady's slender wingspan. However, let's see.
In this offense, other Bulls players obviously did not support Chen Jie enough. People like Chandler and Curry should pull out to set a pick-and-roll for Chen Jie! Now, everyone is watching the game.
It’s not just Chen Jie!”
Yu Jia and Yang Yi nodded. They still have to create a good image of Chen Jie in front of Chinese fans. In fact, this tone has been explained above.
This can't help but make a few people feel curious and awed about Chen Jie's back! In the past, Yao Ming did not receive such treatment! (To be continued...)
ps: Thanks to Sanyang Zhuzhu and Qiyuexuexianren for their rewards!
