In the game on the same day, the Jazz defeated the Warriors 117-99 on the road, the Trident attack was super strong, and Kirilenko was reduced from the core to the bench.The Rockets beat the Lakers 95-93 on the road.Bryant scored 45 points, including 18 in the fourth quarter, but made just 18 of 27 free throws on 13-of-32 shooting.If he had made a good free throw, the Lakers would have won.As a result, the Rockets narrowly outscored by two points thanks to Battier's three-point shot in the final 25 seconds.Another tidbit in this game is that Kobe Bryant has been asking to be traded in the summer of 2007, and when he played, he was booed by the fans in Los Angeles, and although he didn't make it in the end, he still offended some fans.The next day, other teams appeared one after another, and there were many upsets.The Cavaliers were brutalized by the Mavericks 98-74 in the first game at home, and Terry, Crawford, and Nowitzki cut 20.James was in a slump all overall, shooting just 2-of-11 from the field and 6-of-10 from the free-throw line, finishing with 10 points, five rebounds, five assists and five turnovers.Bibby was also terrible, shooting 3-of-13, 1-of-4 from three-point range, and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, finishing with nine points and four assists.He lost the battle against Terry.And Josh Howard didn't play this time, James was guarded by Kidd, who had just joined, and Nowitzki, the "German tank".No one has ever praised Nowitzki's defense, but he has been able to break through every time in this game, and his height and reach cover James in time, making it impossible for him to easily rush to the basket.James' mid-to-long-range shooting problem has not improved, which is his biggest weakness.This year's schedule was a bit odd, with the Celtics not making their debut until the fourth day, beating the Wizards 103-83 at home.The Big Three combined for 67 points.The Bulls beat the 76ers at home to snap a two-game winning streak.Wang Jun scored 24 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, which was not too much, but the defensive Iguodala only scored 11 points.After Iverson left, Iguodala became the team's boss.But he's not qualified yet, hasn't adapted to the transition from role player to core, and doesn't have a strong offensive ability with the ball.The Bulls also exposed some problems, such as Calderon's defense, and 76ers point guard Andre Miller had 25 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.Multiple breakthroughs through Calderón.There was also a bit of unhappiness within the Bulls team.Chandler was unhappy that he had been relegated to the bench.The coaching staff started Oden.When training in the team, he showed that he was stronger than Oden.In the past, Chandler was honestly a blue-collar worker, won two championships, and after his defensive role was affirmed, he felt that he was underestimated and should be an All-Star.Chandler is really efficient, as long as he plays more than 30 minutes.He could well be a double-double.But Skels always told him to play for about 25 minutes and then rest.Although Oden was a starter, he played less than 20 minutes per game, scoring 76 points, 71 rebounds and 17 blocks.He didn't ask for the ball, he worked hard.Many fans complained that Oden had too few opportunities to perform, so he might not be able to develop him into a star.Skels has a headache, he mainly plays offensive basketball, he is not good at arranging defense, and he doesn't know how to use this kind of center.Personally, he's better at using an interior player who can shoot.After covering, wait for an opportunity to shoot on the perimeter.Therefore, David Lee can still have a lot of opportunities to perform in every game.The same goes for Lewis.These two interior players who can open up space are the key to Skyles' tactical system.In Game 3, the Bulls defeated the Bucks 85-78 on the road.After three consecutive wins, bad luck happened.Chandler came off the bench after only four minutes of coming off the bench and went off the court with an injury to his right ankle, when he was hit by Gazuric while grabbing a frontcourt rebound, and he was injured on the ground.Chandler has been out for three to four weeks after the game.Trying to get back into the starting line-up and being injured, Chandler was depressed.He was worried that by the time he got better, Oden had already secured his starting position, after all, the newcomer was physically stronger than him.After a six-game winning streak, the Bulls lost 97-101 at home against the Raptors.Calderon was blown up by TJ Ford without any suspense.Wang Jun's main defense Ford is not to prevent shooting, which is slightly restricted, but the Raptors have a lot of pitchers and can still ensure offense.The turning point of the game came in the third quarter, when Lewis was aggressive defensively and was unfortunately injured during an attempt to block Bosh, leaving the court immediately and returning to the locker room.After examination, Lewis suffered a torn ligament in his right hand and will be sidelined for at least two months, which is undoubtedly worse for the Bulls, who are already without Chandler.The Bulls officially stated that Lewis's injury situation is not optimistic and he must undergo an operation, so he has to be sidelined for a long time.Fortunately, Lewis is a left-hander, and an injury to his right hand will not affect his shooting touch, otherwise he has just renewed his contract and is likely to become a bad contract.After losing Lewis, the Bulls' tactical fit was forced to change, and David Lee entered the starting lineup.David Lee and Calderon had two defensive weaknesses, and Oden was also inexperienced, with the Bulls losing first to the Spurs and then to the Suns, suffering a three-game losing streak.Skels couldn't help but criticize the defence of several players after the game, and it was terrible to be always easily passed.Oden still plays about 20 minutes per game and needs to be trained, he is good at the defensive end and good at the low post.When encountering an inside line that can pull out the mid-range shot, it will be deflated, and the defense and dismantling are easy to be passed by the guard.The veteran J Brown couldn't keep up with the rhythm anymore and could only play for a while.Howard's mid-range shooting ability has deteriorated, and he has defended a black hole, and Skyles is reluctant to let him play.Amondsen defends hard enough and plays on the offensive end with less men.Wang Jun also realized that if he injured two people, he would not be able to win as easily as last year.Lewis and Chandler's ability to switch picks and rolls is key, and when these two positions become David Lee, who is weak in offense and defense, and Oden, an inexperienced rookie, everything is different.Stars can provide consistent scoring firepower on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, no matter how strong a player is, it is impossible to solve the problem alone, and must rely on the whole.After losing to the Suns at home, the Bulls flew to Los Angeles for an away trip.This time, Abby didn't follow.Some people within ESN feel that it is very unfair for Abby to steal the opportunity to show his face, and in several big city teams, ESN arranges reporters to accompany the team, and if Abby also interviews in Los Angeles, it is robbing her colleagues' jobs.Therefore, Abby can stay in Chicago for the holidays, even if she goes to Los Angeles with her, and is not responsible for the interview.She can watch the game at the hotel or support Wang Jun from the audience.After the showdown with Theron in the summer, Abby didn't want to go to Los Angeles to meet Theron and simply stayed at home.The Bulls played the Clippers away first, an easy game."
Captain" Brand suffered a ruptured left Achilles tendon due to an injury in training and is likely to be out for the season.Point guard Livingston has been injured and has not yet returned.Cassel is old, and the Clippers don't even have a decent starting point guard.Substitute guard Dandy Kaw, unorganized, break-through dribbling, poor defense.The Clippers lineup is seriously untidy, and Tim Thomas, the Bulls' abandoned player that year, can start, and this one can definitely be won.Theron was too busy filming, and it was still a night scene, saying that he wouldn't see each other during the day.Wang Jun had a holiday the next day after arriving in Los Angeles, and wanted to relax, so he went out alone early in the morning.s:
