Chen Jie stretched out, glanced at the sunlight shining into the room, and sighed happily.
The bed under him was very soft, and the sunshine outside was bright. Chen Jie liked days like this very much.
At this time, the door was opened, and the beautiful woman who walked in looked at Chen Jie and opened his eyes, and said with a smile: "Wake up, let's drink a glass of water first!"
This woman is naturally Li Ming'er.
Today is the second day after Chen Jie returned to Chicago from Dallas.
Last night, at the Chicago airport, Chen Jie was so moved by the Chicago fans that he even secretly shed tears.
Listening to those fans who still refused to leave in the cold winter and shouted their names, Chen Jie also followed Skiles' example and bowed deeply to the fans.
In his heart, Chen Jie also swore silently that as long as Chicago did not forgive him, he would never be the first to apologize to Chicago.[
For a professional player, it is normal to go through several transfers in his career. The so-called loyalty has long become an outdated thing in the NBA where everything is business.
How many fans can remain loyal to the league several times?
Chen Jie, who comes from later generations, knows that even Garnett, who has said many times now that he will stay in Minnesota for the rest of his life, didn't he go to the Celtics in the end for the championship?
But last night, Chen Jie really made up his mind. As long as the Chicago Bulls still need him, he will not leave even if there is no championship.
Of course, Chen Jie didn't say this.
Scales was the only one who spoke at the airport from beginning to end.
He thanked the fans for their enthusiasm and assured that Chicago's current record is definitely not a flash in the pan.
Hearing Skiles's assurance, the fans were obviously very excited, and the atmosphere became even more lively.
After struggling until three o'clock in the morning, Chen Jie finally returned home.
Because she had already told Li Ming'er on the phone that she would be back tonight. Therefore, when Chen Jie came home, Li Ming'er still did not sleep, but was waiting in the living room like a virtuous wife.
When Chen Jie saw the lights in the living room, his heart was filled with warmth.
For wanderers, sometimes a light is the destination.
Last night, Chen Jie deeply felt the meaning of this sentence.
Even though he had just fought a fierce match, looking at Li Ming'er, Chen Jie still didn't take a break, but worked hard on Li Ming'er's body all night long.
Of course. This is also what Chen Jie likes to do.[
After a fierce battle, Li Ming'er and Chen Jie were both satisfied before they fell asleep.
Then, Chen Jie opened his eyes and saw the sunshine outside the house.
"What time is it?" Chen Jie asked casually after receiving the water handed over by Li Ming'er.
"It's eleven o'clock, you can really sleep!" Li Ming'er joked with a smile.
"It's eleven o'clock, it's already eleven o'clock!" Chen Jie was shocked and immediately shook his head.
When I was in school and college in my previous life, I often slept until two o'clock in the afternoon. It was very common at that time.
But now, when I get up at eleven o'clock, I feel a little weird.
You know, since entering the league, Chen Jie has gotten up at almost six o'clock every day, practiced by himself first, and then went to train with the team.
Chen Jie has become accustomed to repeating such days every day.
Chen Jie feels a little uncomfortable sleeping in every once in a while.
But simply, Skiles just returned from the away game and gave the team another day off. Let's rest today.
With this in mind, Chen Jie drank the glass of water and said to Li Ming'er: "Where's the newspaper? What's the news today?"
Li Ming'er knew that Chen Jie had the habit of reading newspapers, especially the sports section, so he would put that newspaper by his bedside every day.
At this moment, after hearing Chen Jie's question, Li Ming'er casually picked up a newspaper and handed it to Chen Jie.
"Watch it for yourself. I'm going to prepare breakfast. It's almost ready. Come out and eat it after you finish it!" Li Ming'er stood up with a smile and said to Chen Jie as she walked out.
Chen Jie blew a kiss to Li Ming'er, making Li Ming'er smile shyly. After watching Li Ming'er walk out of the room, Chen Jie opened the newspaper.
The eye-catching headline on the front page of the newspaper contains three words.
"Wolf is coming!"
After reading the content, Chen Jie realized that this was the sentence Nelson used to describe himself.
He shook his head, gave a wry smile, and continued reading. He found that almost all the newspapers were reporting on himself or the Bulls.
Chen Jie actually wanted to know information about other teams, but he didn't expect that all he saw was about his own team.
However, seeing the media praising himself so much, Chen Jie felt very happy.
In fact, after last night, the media reported only one thing today, and that was the rise of Chicago.
Before, Chicago had a good record and had been going smoothly in the Eastern Conference. But at that time, not many people thought Chicago was great, because after all, at that time, Chicago had not experienced the devil's schedule and had not withstood the test.
But things are different now. Each of the four away games in the Western Conference is a strong team, but Chicago actually won four consecutive victories.
This is something no Eastern Conference team has done in recent years.
And in these games, except for the one against the Spurs, the Bulls won with absolute advantage and absolute strength, not by coincidence.
This can't help but make other teams in the league start to pay attention to the Bulls.
Now, the Bulls are tied with the Pistons for first place in the Eastern Conference.
The media's argument that the Chicago dynasty has revived can be seen everywhere.
Many media are even analyzing the reasons for the Bulls' rise.
Of course, the first and most important reason is that Chicago took advantage of this year's draft and selected Chen Jie.
At this time, of course, the media routinely teased the people of Orlando and Charlotte.
The owners and managers of the two teams have long been accustomed to such teasing. They just smiled bitterly.
However, fans in the two cities, once the media reports on Chicago's greatness, and every time the media reports on Chen Jie's greatness, they will march on the streets and demand that the manager be fired.
This is no longer news.
As for other reasons, some say it is because of the maturity of Skiles as a coach, while others say it is Patterson's success because several of the rookies he selected have great potential.
There are various opinions, but everyone agrees that the Bulls have risen.
When all the media were reporting on this matter, few people noticed that a reporter named Smith from the Dallas Daily News wrote an article about Ivanka Trump watching the game. (To be continued...)
