In the fifth game, the Nets challenged the Bulls away.At noon, Wang Jun left the hotel and went to a famous restaurant in Chicago to eat a deep dish pizza with barbecue sauce and chicken, and he fell in love with this special food after the last time he came to taste it with Abby.The food made his mood a little better, and when he was eating, he found a corner where no one was around, and quietly thought about how to play the game at night.Last season, the Bulls had the lowest record, including injuries, and now the "little shark" Eddie Curry continues to be absent due to injury, and the Bulls are tight inside, not the strongest lineup.Guard Jamal Crawford was sent to the Knicks, and the Bulls are currently the youngest team in the league and a rookie.Only blue-collar power forward Osella Harrington joined the NBA in '96, and the other two veterans, Adrian Griffin and Piakowski, are role players.Apart from these three, Chandler was the 2001 No. 1 and sophomore on the team, and everyone else was a first- and second-year rookie.At the heart of the Bulls is Hinrich, who is at the same level as Wang Jun, who didn't make the All-Rookie team last season.This time, he said that he couldn't afford to lose.Whether it's a three-game losing streak or a loss to Hinrich, it will make him unhappy.In the previous four games, the atmosphere in the Nets locker room was very strange, and the players were busy with each other and rarely communicated, only Wang Jun, Korver, Collins and a few others chatted a lot, and Jefferson rarely spoke.There is no leader, Kidd is not there, the old players have just arrived, Wang Jun does not open his mouth to boost morale because of his young age, and the two captains of the team are Kidd and Jefferson, not him.Today, after entering the locker room, seeing that his teammates were still scattered, Wang Jun finally couldn't help but speak."
Guys, there's still some time before the game, please listen to me."
Wang Jun stood in the center of the locker room, clapped his hands and said loudly.Everyone's attention was drawn to it, because it was the young player of the team who spoke.Everyone wants to hear what he has to say.Because he's the heart of the pitch, no one thinks it's abrupt."
Everybody's older than me, so in the first two games I waited for someone to come forward and speak, but no, Kidd wasn't there.I think I have to say a few words.If there is something wrong.I can point it out, I hope you understand, I have a very straight personality, and some words are not spit out and unhappy. ”No one opened their mouths, and the two coaches, Larry Drew and Lawrence, happened to arrive at the door, and they didn't enter the door very tacitly, listening to Wang Jun outside.Wang Jun looked around.Shouted: "We have lost two in a row."
This one can't afford to lose again.I know it's tough at the moment, it's not the best team, but the first two games we lost were so easy, I don't think it's terrible to lose, it's the relaxation that is terrible, and if we play with a desperate attitude, we won't lose so badly. ”Still no one interjected, and everyone felt that Wang Jun was like what Eric Williams said at the press conference.His eyes are like a tiger, and if he has the word "king" on his head, it will be even more like.Wang Jun continued: "Our first two games were too soft.There are very few fouls, especially against the Suns, they cut in the air, they are very sharp on the break, yes, but we have to watch them go to the basket with ease, we can foul, foul hard, play like the Pistons, the Pacers.They can shoot from the perimeter, but if you want to get into the box, you have to be prepared to be pulled down. ”No one was dissatisfied, because what Wang Jun said was reasonable, and they didn't foul much.Wang Jun took a deep breath and said: "Maybe someone wants to ask, you don't have many fouls, I want to foul, but the team needs me to attack, I must control the number of fouls and stay on the court."
If anyone thinks that they are more suitable to take on offensive responsibilities than me, I can pass the ball mainly this time, look for opportunities on the periphery, give up the right to shoot, and focus more on the defensive end, is anyone willing to stand up" This question is very acute, and if it is not done well, it may cause conflicts in the locker room, Wang Jun speaks in too hard tone, not very good.The players are a little bit careful.Some people think that Wang Jun is too crazy, why should a Chinese shout here but not say it, because they are not qualified to speak, this is a place that pays attention to strength.Don't say it, just wait on the side to watch the excitement.There is also someone who hesitates to speak, and that is Jefferson.He wanted to open his mouth in his heart, whether it was to support Wang Jun's statement, or to let people understand that this team is now a double core, and he should say something.But now he is like his first love who doesn't know how to ask a girl out, and he can't say anything.Image does not represent character, no matter how strong the muscles are, it cannot change Jefferson's introverted personality, and when he first arrived at the Nets, he was shy to introduce himself.In the NBA, introversion sometimes equals weakness.Even without Wang Jun, Kidd leaves the Nets one day, leaving only Jefferson as a veteran player, and he will not be a qualified leader.There are also people who have a sense of admiration for Wang Jun, and this is the case with Korwall.Korver is self-aware and hasn't wanted to be the core of a team, so he's not jealous.He felt that Wang Jun was cool, and when he was in college, he was the top scorer and didn't dare to shout so much to his teammates.Not to mention that when he was a rookie, he was afraid of being beaten.Wang Jun's momentum makes people can't hold a group to beat him at all, and it looks like he will be beaten by him when he opposes him alone.After a pause for a few seconds, seeing that no one answered, Wang Jun made a concluding speech.'
We have to win this game, we're the defending champions, and even if we lose at the end, we can't lose to the team who finished bottom last season.Everyone has to fight, fight together, I'm not the captain, it's a little embarrassing, Richard, are you taking the lead in shouting slogans" Jefferson then stood up and said loudly: "Everyone shout with me: win" "win" Larry whispered to Lawrence outside the door: "I think the king is more suitable to be the captain." ”Lawrence nodded."
I think so."
The captain can't just look at the time in the team, originally the two coaches thought it was a trivial matter, and there were only two candidates, Jefferson and Collins.Needless to say, Jefferson is introverted, Collins doesn't look at playing as a "black and hard", he usually has a sissy performance, and he directly said that he quit this election and didn't want to fight.NBA captains are not so easy to be called, a team can have up to two captains but it can also be one.The captain may discuss the interpretation of a penalty with the referee during a regular timeout or a 20-second timeout, but cannot discuss or challenge the decision.This is the main right or duty of the captain.Jefferson doesn't open his mouth on the court.The captain can be assigned to anyone on the team's activation roster, even if that person is on the bench for the entire match.If the assigned captain is absent from the game, the coach may designate one person to be the captain of the match.Now, the coaching staff is starting to think about Wang Jun.It took a while for Lawrence and Larry Drew to enter the locker room, as if they hadn't heard it.The task of arranging tactics, natural blocking and dismantling and attacking with the ball is still Wang Jun's, which gives him privileges.Lawrence also deliberately observed the expressions of the players, no one was unconvinced, and Wang Jun's words had a positive effect.He pushed the boat down the river and proposed a strict prevention of the forbidden area, and he had to foul fiercely if he was passed, which made it even more obvious that Wang Jun's idea was correct.When the time came, the players came out.S: It's a mistake here, Curry went to the Knicks in 2005, corrected
