Super Lord of the Rings

On the 5th, the Bulls lost 101 to 118 away to the Jazz.

The Jazz's internal strength can probably be ranked among the top three in the league. Okur, Boozer, and Millsap can all shoot after the pick-and-roll, maximizing the space, which allows Deron Williams to fully display his personal ability .

Kirilenko and Brewer defended on the outside. The Jazz also traded with the 76ers and traded Girisek for Wang Jun's friend Kyle Korver, adding an outside shooting point.

After strengthening the lineup, the Jazz have a lot of ambitions, and they also want to hit the championship this season.

Korver played well in this game, running and catching the ball, shooting well in the middle and long range, scoring 27 points and 3 assists.

Although the winning streak was ended, Wang Jun played as stable as ever, scoring 40 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.

At the press conference, the reporter interviewed Wang Jun and asked two questions about the game, and then brought the topic to the Lakers deal.

"The Lakers got Pau Gasol through a trade, and they have a terrifying inside depth. How do you evaluate the trade? Do you think the Lakers are likely to win the championship?"

Wang Jun thought for a while and replied: "Of course they may win the championship. The Lakers' lineup is very scary. There are excellent players in every position, but no matter who the opponent is, we must work hard to beat it."

The reporter asked: "Do you think the Lakers still have weaknesses?"

"Even if I know they have weaknesses, I won't tell them. Should I remind them to make up for them before the trade deadline?" Wang Jun answered easily with a smile on his face.

He didn't complain directly like many people, calling out shady, which didn't make any sense.

The emergence of the Celtics Big Three is destined to have more and more stars team up to compete for the championship in the future. The owner of the Lakers is rich and has the best location. Are they willing to be abused year after year?

Just like poaching O'Neal back then, the Lakers will definitely poach more stars in the future. Rather than just relying on drafts and training. There is no rule in the league that star groups are not allowed.

The Bulls' road trip to the West went very smoothly. They defeated the Supersonics, Warriors, and Trail Blazers one after another, and returned to the home court with three consecutive victories. Because it was too easy to win against the Sonics, Wang Jun only scored 25 points, ending the 35+ consecutive record. It was fixed at 19 games.

Bulls have three days to adjust. Then against the Hornets led by Chris Paul.

The Hornets are the biggest dark horse this season,

35 wins and 14 losses temporarily ranked first in the Western Conference. However, this is generally related to the strength of the Western Conference teams in the early stage, and the record is not very ideal. The Lakers lost 17 games and ranked third in the West.

The Bulls are 33 wins and 17 losses. After Novak joined, they overtook the Magic with 20 losses. They ranked third in the Eastern Conference, 4 games behind the Pistons, and 8 and a half games behind the Celtics.

Wang Jun spent the Chinese New Year away. No family reunion. Just chatted for a while via online video.

He used to care about the Chinese New Year, he could rest at home and eat some good food. In the past few years in the United States, he feels that he has almost become an American. The pace of life is getting faster and faster, and his feeling for festivals is getting weaker and weaker.

He misses the simple little happiness in the past very much, but he can't go back to the past. After this season, he still has to play in the Olympics and has no time to spend with his family.

11th. The Bulls officially announced that Rashard Lewis will return in the game against the Hornets on the 12th, making fans wait for a long time.

Lewis at position 4 is a cameo. Defense is much more reliable than Novak. He has been training for a period of time. He obeyed the team doctor's arrangement and did not participate in this wave of away games. His injury has fully healed. He doesn't need to sit on the bench to reduce his playing time to find a feeling, he can just play directly.

Two days in advance, the national media are building momentum for the game.

Back then, Byron Scott was not pleasing to Wang Jun, which was a famous black history. After leaving the Nets, Scott was still not convinced. He told the media that he was not optimistic about Wang Jun, but he was slapped in the face and slapped. That is four years.

Seeing that Wang Jun won three championships and double MVP, Scott did not reflect, only resentment.

With his stubbornness, if he stayed in the Nets back then, it is estimated that Wang Jun would have one less champion. Kidd and Martin haven't realized their dreams yet.

Just three days ago, the Hornets and Rockets completed a three-way deal. The Hornets sent Bobby Jackson, Adam Halushka and a 2008 second-round pick to the Rockets for Bunch Wells and Mike James.

The Grizzlies, who were involved in the transaction, sent Sergey Lishock's signing rights to the Rockets, getting Hornets forward Marcus Vinicius, and the Rockets' Malik Badian and some cash.

In this game, Wells and James can represent the Hornets.

James is an addition, with high salary and low ability, and Wells will definitely get a lot of playing opportunities to strengthen the Hornets' weakest No. 2 position.

After adapting to the training, Scott summoned everyone to boost their morale and said seriously: "We must win this game. The Bulls came in in a good state, but I think the Hornets are stronger, better than the Celtics, better than the Lakers. We There is only one goal this season, and that is to win the championship, do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" Hornets players shouted together.

Scott shouted slogans, and the Hornets players could only respond, otherwise they would be regarded as boring people by him and hated by him. JR Smith was sent away because of his free and lazy personality.

The Hornets lineup is not weak. Paul has played super data, ranking third in efficiency this season, second only to Wang Jun and James, averaging 21 points, 4 rebounds, 11.2 assists and 2.7 steals per game.

This is the highest efficiency in NBA point guard history, surpassing Magic Johnson and Thomas the Assassin.

The strikers include Peja Stojakovic and David West, one is a two-time three-pointer, and the other is a recognized insider mid-range shot.

Stojakovic averaged 16.4 points per game after his comeback, which is not too high, and his shooting is still stable, with a 44.3% three-point shooting percentage.

West averaged 20.6 points, 9 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game and also played star data. This season is likely to be selected as an All-Star.

The outside world began to advocate the Big Three. The Celtics and the Lakers have at least three strongmen.

The Hornets are slightly worse and are known as the offensive trident. It's a pity that the center is Ben Wallace, with a high salary and low ability. If they are replaced by an equivalent insider, even if they don't beat the league like the Bulls did last season, they can still compete for the top spot in the regular season.

Ben Wallace hadn't wanted to be the champion for a day or two, and it was his heart disease that he had never been to the final.

Paul and West, who haven't made the playoffs for two years, are also holding back their energy. Stojakovic almost succeeded when he was in the Kings, and he also hopes to realize his dream in the Hornets.

Scott said to Paul alone: ​​"Chris, I don't think you are worse than Wang Jun, come on, beat him."

"I will prove myself." Paul said deeply.

He added a sentence in his heart, as long as it is not a one-on-one match.

They trained together in Miami for two weeks in the summer, and Paul was abused by Wang Jun in a one-on-one match. Because of the difference in size, he couldn't guard against Wang Jun at all.

Now he wants to prove that he can carry the team, and he is the best in team basketball.

Paul also has ambitions. He not only wants to win, but also wants to win the regular season MVP.

The current record is the Celtics, and the data of the three is relatively average, so they will not be selected for the MVP. If you don't look at the best record, then Paul has a chance.

Although James' efficiency is also high, the team's record is mediocre. Paul's record is better than Wang Jun's is the key.
