I vaguely remember that the last time the two teams met at the United Center in Chicago, the opening situation seemed to be an unusual coincidence.
At that time, the two teams were also very cautious in the opening and kept testing. When the first official timeout was taken in the opening, neither team had really exerted its strength.
After the timeout, it was Chen Jie's steal. When he was about to leave, it was destroyed by Bruce Bowen, and the basketball flew out of the baseline.
But, is it really just a coincidence?
Skiles and Jacqueline looked at each other. At this moment, both of them seemed to understand each other's thoughts.
Yes, in the last game and this one, both teams started very cautiously.
But that time, the Bulls were cautious because they faced the Spurs, a super strong team in the league, and the Spurs were cautious because the Bulls' fast-playing whirlwind was sweeping the league at that time, and they did not dare to take it lightly.
But now, the reasons for all this are different.
In this game, the reason why the two teams still tried cautiously was because of one person.
This person is undoubtedly Mr. 62 Points, Chen Jie!
The Bulls were not sure what kind of defense the Spurs used against Chen Jie, whether it was a pressing defense, a defense that cut him off from his teammates, or even a dirty foul defense. Therefore, Skiles did not dare to use force.
, he needs to test out the defensive strategy adopted by the Spurs before he can decide whether to let Chen Jie mainly attack or feint.
The Spurs, on the other hand, adopted a cautious attitude because they were afraid of Chen Jie. The name Mr. 62 Points was really shocking. The last time the Bulls' fast-playing whirlwind swept the league, the Spurs even
I have never been so scared.
But today, because Chen Jie was alone, the Spurs team didn't say anything, but it was obvious from their performance on the court that they were a little scared.
They don't know what Chen Jie's condition is today, how he feels today, and what his physical strength is today. They don't dare to exert force until they determine what level Chen Jie is today.
They were afraid that once they exerted their strength, their trump card would be exposed. Then, facing Chen Jie's madness, there would be no way to deal with it.
Never before has a certain player made the Spurs so fearful.
Oh, no, it should be said that after Vicki and Duncan came to this team, there has never been a player that this team regarded as a major enemy.
Because before that, there was once a man in Chicago who was feared by all teams in the league.
That man's name is Michael Jordan.
And now, it seems that this player named Jayshawn is repeating what Jordan did.
Even the old and strong Spurs did not dare to take the Bulls' treatment of Chen Jie lightly.
After all, Chen Jie's performance last night was really shocking.
The league has not seen such a shocking performance in many years.
Ever since the pair of generals Duncan and Timovich took over in San Antonio, the Spurs still won't be afraid and dare to fight even if they face Shaq who is at his peak or the Pistons' top five.
But now, they are actually a little afraid of Chen Jie.
**Vicci looked at Scales with envy in her eyes.
Any team or any coach would be happy and enviable to have such a player.
Just as **Vicci said to his assistant last night, Chen Jie's breakthrough is sharp, Chen Jie's shooting is accurate, and Chen Jie seems to have no shortcomings on the offensive end.
More importantly, this player not only scores a lot, but also his assists often allow his teammates to score easily. You know, Chen Jie originally played a point guard, so passing the ball is not a problem.
Of course, what matters most to **Vicci is Chen Jie's age.
You know, he is only a first-year rookie, and he still has a long, long future. What will his peak be like? **Vicci cannot imagine.
Sometimes, **Vic even thinks about how great it would be if the Spurs failed last year. In that case, the Spurs would have great hope of getting the No. 1 pick, and then they would never make the same decision as Orlando and Summer.
If the Lott people are so stupid, they will definitely choose Chen Jie without hesitation.
**Veach is sure that if such a thing really happens, then in the future, many, many years later, when people record the history of the Spurs, they will definitely mention two things.
The two No. 1 picks changed the Spurs team.
The two No. 1 picks made the Spurs great.
The first No. 1 pick was naturally Tim Duncan in 1997.
Yes, **Vitch believes that the significance of selecting Chen Jie is completely comparable to the significance of selecting Duncan to reshape the Spurs team.
However, there are not so many ifs in the world, and there are not so many ifs in this alliance.
Although the Spurs have outstanding players like Parker, Ginobili, Bruce Bowen and Duncan, they still can't get Chen Jie. They just stand on the court and watch Chen Jie standing opposite wearing jerseys of different colors, and then
Afraid of him, fearful of him, and envious of his team!
Then, the night before the game, I stayed up all night trying to figure out how to deal with him and limit him.
Yes, **Vicci didn't sleep last night. He vowed to tell his stopper Yuduka that he would be able to find Chen Jie's shortcomings and find a way to deal with Chen Jie.
But one night, after thinking about it all night, **Vicci couldn't find any way to limit Chen Jie on the offensive end.
Chen Jie does have shortcomings, such as his poor post-up play. After entering the league, he basically did not score in post-up singles. His physical confrontation is far from as good as LeBron or even Cameron.
But the problem is that these shortcomings cannot limit Chen Jie at all. He has breakthroughs and shooting, which is enough on the offensive end. One person cannot guard Chen Jie at all. However, double teams or triple teams
?Is it really possible?
Don't forget, Chen Jie also passes the ball!
Don't treat the rest of the Bulls as decorations. Players who can enter this league don't have two skills. If they can't score without anyone to defend them, then they can just go home and feed their children. Don't be embarrassed here.
Now it's time to see. **Vitch doesn't think the other Bulls players are so useless.
If you can't restrict Chen Jie on the offensive end, then find another way and think about restricting Chen Jie from another angle. For example, Chen Jie's defense.
Okay, although Chen Jie's defense is not bad, compared with his offense, this is definitely his shortcoming. To defeat him on the defensive end and then make him have no energy to attack?
It seems like a good idea. But could it be that Scales couldn't think of such a simple thing?
No, he thought about it. Not only did he think about it, he also thought about how to protect Chen Jie. The Bulls have Griffin, and Griffin can replace Chen Jie to defend the opponent's key figures.
In this way, Chen Jie doesn't have to waste too much energy on the defensive end.
Let the second key player beat Chen Jie? Get rid of it. Chen Jie's defense is just a shortcoming, not a weakness. Such key players must be the league's top outside scorers. If a team really has this
If there are two people, do you still need to consider restricting Chen Jie? Just do it with open swords and guns!
After thinking about it all night, **Vic's final answer was that unless the superstars team up, they can't defeat the crazy Chen Jie!
**Vicci could only resort to some old tricks in the end, such as making small movements to interfere. Fortunately, Bruce Bowen is very good at this and usually won't get fouled.
That ball just now is an excellent example!
However, this is definitely not a long-term solution. Now, everyone knows that if Chen Jie is angered, he will transform into Crazy Jie. That kind of him is the most terrifying!
**Vicci racked her brains for Chen Jie.
He felt again that having Chen Jie was really a happy thing!
Chen Jie is definitely a player that every team wants to get.
Although sometimes, what newspapers and media say is a little biased.
But this time, **Vicci felt that they were right.
Just today, after Chen Jie's performance last night shocked the league, the media and newspapers were overwhelmingly praising Chen Jie.
Not only was Mr. 62’s praise resounding throughout the league, there were also many expectations for Chen Jie’s future development.
The New York Times even reported Chen Jie's performance. They said that Chen Jie is definitely the player that all head coaches want to have.
