I’m Really Playing Basketball

The Chicago Bulls are a very young team. In addition to the big Z, the core players of this team are young people such as Deron, Ben Gordon, and Lor Deng.

As a young person, the biggest characteristic is progress. Maybe you only saw them yesterday, but today is completely different.

The Bobcats lost the Bulls in two games last month. This must have given the Bulls players a lot of confidence.

Although the Bulls are now eighth in the Eastern Conference, they are not so far away from the Cavaliers, who are fourth in the Eastern Conference. One is 18 wins and 11 losses, and the other is 22 wins and 8 losses. The Bulls have a chance to reverse this season. The Raiders became the fourth in the East.

In this case, this game against the Bobcats, facing the Bobcats without Chris Paul, the Bulls are more confident.

Before the Bobcats could double kill the Bobcats when they had Paul. Now the Bobcats no longer have Paul. Isn't it a matter of minutes for them to play the Bobcats?

It should be that they have no reason to lose to the defending Bobcats in this game.

On January 2, 2008, the first game of the Bobcats in January was also the first game of the New Year, and it was also the first game after Xiaopao left.

Therefore, this game is still very much watched. Originally, this game was not broadcast live in the United States. Now this game is temporarily added to a game broadcast in the United States.

For fans and spectators in the United States, they want to know the current strength of the Bobcats without Paul.

As for the NBA's expert media, without Paul, what would the Bobcats lineup look like.

In fact, it is not only the media experts of the NBA. In fact, all NBA teams aiming at championships and playoffs are very curious about how the Bobcats lineup this season.

The value of Paul's tactical position in the Bobcats is very great.

And Paul's departure did make Jordan think more about the Bobcats this season.

After Paul left, Jordan had thought about who would replace Paul.

The first option is to change the point guard and replace Paul with Jack.

But thinking about it a little bit, Jordan gave up. Jack's defense is a very big problem.

The Bobcats' Bynum and Aldridge's inside defense is not very stable. If Jack is added, this will collapse.

Another option is to let Chen Xiao play the point guard, and at the same time mention Battier as the shooting guard. In this case, the Bobcats' lineup will have no problem in terms of offensive and defensive or height.

Moreover, Jordan has never tried it, knowing that this is definitely the best choice for the Bobcats.

The other choice is naturally the one that Jordan wants to make the most, and that is to take the opportunity to mention Roy, whom he admires very much.

Let Roy fight, this has always been a dream choice in Jordan's heart.

It's just that he has been worrying about Roy's physical problems and Paul's problems.

Now that Paul is gone, Roy's knee seems to be fine for the past two seasons, which makes Jordan feel a little bit more quiet.

And Roy himself doesn't matter, whether he is on the bench or off the bench, he has a high tactical position in the team.

It is said that Roy is the team’s fifth head. In fact, he has always been the team’s second head in tactics. This is also one of Xiao Pao’s dissatisfaction with Jordan. In Jordan’s mind, the nominal second head of the team does not have Roy’s status. high.

As long as Chen Xiao is not on the court, he is the absolute core on the court, so for him, playing on the bench really doesn't matter.

Maybe because he has been partnering with Chen Xiao for a long time, he has less tactical freedom.

Therefore, after Paul left, Jordan has been entangled in Roy playing point guard and Chen Xiao playing point guard.

Of course, in this game against the Bulls, Jordan used Chen Xiao to play the point guard.

Although Jordan is headstrong, he is selfish and small towards Roy.

But Jordan also knew that after Paul left, Chen Xiao lost the game as soon as he came up. This must be a bad influence from public opinion.

In this case, let Chen Xiao play the point guard more safely.

So in this game against the Bulls, the Bobcats lined up with Bynum, Aldridge, Granger, Shane and Chen Xiao.

Roy is still playing as a substitute to maintain the team's rotation advantage.

In this game between the Bulls and the Bobcats, the Bulls originally wanted to take the cannon to leave, take advantage of the victory, and give the Bobcats a heavy blow. In this game, the Bulls only wanted to win, but did not think about losing.

And the small artillery in front of the TV is actually quite worried about Chen Xiao and Bobcat.

After all, the Bulls have really been their nemesis in the past few seasons. Before this season, they also killed them both at home and away.

In this case, the Bobcats in this game did feel a bit fierce before the game.

If Chen Xiao and the Bobcats lose in this game, Paul knows how much public opinion pressure Chen Xiao will have even if he imagines it.

However, when the game started, the small artillery in front of the TV and many expert fans were stunned.

From the beginning of this game, the Bobcats have maintained the lead in the score, and even throughout the game, the Bulls did not lead once.

"Where is the bull and the lynx? It is obviously the lynx and the bull!"

Even the TNT commentator Kenny Smith couldn't help but exclaimed.

Indeed, the Bobcats played the Bulls very easily in this game.

Chen Xiao completely suppressed Deron Williams, who had always played a god-level performance in the Bobcats before.

Battier's defense against Ben Gordon is also very good.

At the same time, Lor Deng, who was very experienced in playing the Bobcats before Randolph, is very mobile and talented when encountering, as if another Aldridge of his own, he is not so handy.

In fact, the Bulls double-killed the Bobcats this season, not only Deron's advantage over the small guns, but also Lordon's restraint against Randolph, and Big Z's suppression of Bynum.

Three of the five people are fully restrained, and it is not easy for the Bobcats to win.

But the Bobcats in this game are completely different.

All the restraint is not only gone, but also turned over.

So in the end, under the witness of a national audience, the Bobcats without the team's second master seemed to become stronger.

109 to 97, the Bobcats easily defeated the Chicago Bulls, the eighth in the East at home.

At the end of the game, watching the big score on the TV, Chris Cannon outside the TV was a bit suspicious of life.

"I suspect that the Bulls did not restrain the Bobcats before, but simply restrained me!"

I have to say that the small artillery is quite clever.

Not smart. In this game, the Bulls point guard Deron Williams faced Chen Xiao with 6, 13 points, 9 assists and 8 turnovers in the face of Chen Xiao.

Positive data is good, but negative data is explosive.

Let's put it this way, Xiao Pao has been with Deron for so many years, and he has never seen Deron played such a top and bad game.

Deron's feeling in front of Chen Xiao in this game is the same as his feeling in front of Deron.

On the Bobcats' side, Chen Xiao, who played a point guard for the first time this season, was 14 of 21. He scored 32 points, 8 assists and 13 rebounds in the game.

Although the assists didn't seem to be many, the non-assist passing of Chen Xiao in response to the ball in this game was very magical, and he felt like a magician.

Yes, Chen Xiao in this game feels like a magician with an enhanced version of offense.

Excellent shooting, excellent rebounding, excellent passing, high, and excellent vision.

Under Chen Xiao's organization, the Bobcats scored in double figures with six players.

It can be said that Chen Xiao playing point guard and Xiao Pao playing point guard are completely different game feelings.

But to say which kind of feeling is stronger, it must be Chen Xiao's feeling of playing a point guard.

Magician, and it feels like an enhanced magician, this one is too beautiful!

So after the game, the Bobcats coach Jordan really praised Chen Xiao.

"Before, if you asked me who the strongest shooting guard in NBA history was, I would say it was Chen.

Now, if you want to ask me who is the strongest point guard in NBA history, I will still say Chen.

Chen is an epoch-making team in a true sense, his strength is unparalleled! "

And after Jordan praised me, when the reporter took Jordan's words and asked the Bulls coach Skyles, the Bulls coach actually said...

"I think Michael is right. Chen is the most special player I have ever met. I have played against a magician. I know how powerful a magician is. I never thought that one day I would see a stronger control than a magician in the NBA. Wei, now, I can say, I saw it."

It has to be said that after Chen Xiao succeeded in leaving Xiaopao as a point guard, public opinion in the entire NBA had something to do.

The contrast between Chen Xiao and Magician also replaced the contrast between Chen Xiao and Jordan, becoming the main contradiction of the NBA.

And the performance of the Bobcats throughout January seems to prove this point.

Throughout January, the Bobcats played a total of 17 games, and in these 17 games, the Bobcats only lost 4 of them.

One was lost to the Bucks on January 6, one was lost to the Magic on January 16, one was lost to the Spurs on January 21, and the other was lost to the Mavericks on January 23. .

13 wins and 4 losses throughout January, this record is the best record since the start of the Bobcats this season.

And not only the record is excellent, but also in the strong dialogue, the Bobcats are also very good.

Throughout January, the Bobcats beat the eighth Bulls in the East twice and the Nets fifth in the East twice. The Nets ranked third in the East before losing two to the Bobcats.

In addition, the Bobcats also defeated the Cavaliers, Nuggets, Grizzlies, Pistons and other strong teams in the East and West.

To be honest, the January schedule is actually quite unfriendly to the Bobcats. Paul is new, the team needs a new run-in, and the schedule is so difficult when it comes up, which makes many people predict that the Bobcats will collapse in January. .

Unexpectedly, the Bobcats not only did not crash, but Chen Xiao averaged 33 points, 9.2 rebounds, 9.6 assists, 2.4 steals and 2.1 blocks per game throughout January, and achieved such a good result.

This also allowed Chen Xiaoli to overpower the Heat's Yao Ming, who averaged 26 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks, and the Raptors' Nash, to become the Eastern Conference's best players in January.

In short, after Xiaopao left, Jordan made Chen Xiao a successful point guard adjustment.

Unexpected success.

However, under the success, the current Bobcats also hide some problems.

That's the problem that will definitely arise when Chen Xiao becomes a point guard.

At the beginning, Chen Xiao also played point guard in the Cavaliers. When Chen Xiao or Xiao Zhan played point guard, when they faced small guards such as Nash, the defensive problems of Chen Xiao and Xiao Zhan would be magnified.

And now the Bobcats do the same.

Chen Xiao's flexibility was not so outstanding, coupled with his height, his agility is definitely incomparable to those small guards.

Kobe used this in the Finals last season to continue to play against Chen Xiao. In fact, this season, many teams and many people are taking advantage of this.

Now that Chen Xiao becomes a point guard, he will definitely be targeted even more.

The Bobcats' loss to the Bucks and Mavericks in January is typical of this problem.

Take the stag as an example. Logically speaking, the Bobcats were very restrained in the past.

However, after the small gun left, Chen Xiao played the point guard, and the Bobcats' lineup became larger, the Bucks' agility and speed beat the Bobcats through.

The lynx, which should have restrained the stag, appeared to be restrained by the stag after the cannon left.

The same is true for the Mavericks. The Mavericks' back line is very fast. At the same time, there are excellent helpers like Tyson Chandler who have been opened up by Chen Xiao in the inside.

This offense and one defense made the Bobcats very uncomfortable.

The loss of these games is where the importance of the small artillery is most reflected.

The small artillery has a very strong role in defending the small guards like Nash and Curry.

In any case, although Chen Xiao has the same problem as the Magic in playing the point guard, the big point guard will never be able to solve the problem, but in any case, the Bobcats are still successful.

After the game in January, not only Chen Xiao won the best of the month, but also the best of the month in six consecutive seasons of his career to become the first person after Jordan. Moreover, the Bobcats' record also improved to 33 wins and 14 losses. The ranking is also ranked sixth in the East.

By the way, Jordan won the monthly best for seven consecutive seasons, and it was not until the two seasons that he quit.

If you don’t count the two seasons of retirement, Joe’s boss was the best month for 10 consecutive seasons. You know, at that time, there was really only one month best every month, and he was a real ‘little MVP’.

Therefore, no matter how many consecutive seasons Chen Xiao will be on this record in the future, Chen Xiao feels that Jordan is the eternal **** in this record.

Chen Xiao doesn't think that he can get at least one vote every season in the best vote of only one month, and for ten consecutive years, Chen Xiao does not have that much confidence.

While Chen Xiao won the best of the month, the league also announced the 2008 New Orleans All-Star and substitute roster.

Among them, Chen Xiao once again won the All-Star vote and led the Eastern Conference. In addition to Chen Xiao, the other four Eastern Conferences are center, Yao Ming, forward James and Carter, and the guard is Wade. .

MVP Heat Nash lost to Wade.

In the West, the center is Dwight Howard, the forwards are Garnett and Ron Howard, and the guards are Kobe and Iverson.

Iverson was Arenas who took the lead at the last minute.

In addition to 10, the other 14 substitutes are.

East here, Nash, O'Neal, Duncan, Ray Allen, Durant, Deron Williams, Tracy McGrady

On the west side, there are Pau Gasol, Arenas, Kidd, Anthony, Nowitzki, Stoudemire, and Chris Paul.

For the media and fans, the biggest controversy for the East and West All-Star list this time is of course the greatest player in NBA history. Now the Suns’ Chinese Shaker O’Neill is actually absent from the All-Star.

O'Neal lost to Howard by 1 million votes in the Western Conference center vote this time, ranking second in the Western Conference.

When O'Neal failed to enter the All-Star position, many people had a hunch that O'Neal might be absent.

And now, it really was absent.

This has a great impact in the United States and the NBA.

On the other side, Chen Xiao is of course most concerned about his two former teammates, Paul and Randolph.

Paul finally thrilled to defeat Pierce and Byron Davis and other players to be selected for the All-Star. Cannon has been named to the All-Star for two consecutive years in the Eastern Conference. He has always been the player most admired by the NBA coach, and he has been in the Bobcats. The protagonist of that month and the month of leading the Clippers gave him a lot of extra points. Can you imagine that the Cannon arrived in the Clippers and brought the Clippers to a record of 11 wins and 4 losses?

You know, after the Clippers sent away the boss Brand and Al Thornton, Maggette, Kaman, Kassel, Mobley and other veterans were left.

Not to mention, it's really good that the small artillery organizes this group of old NBA fritters.

The strength of these old fritters is actually very good. At least, Maggette is still averaging 22 points per game. Kaman can also average 15+13 per game, plus a small cannon averaging 20+10 per game. The combat effectiveness of the ship is indeed very good in the west.

Maybe the Clippers can make the playoffs this season.

If the Clippers do enter the playoffs this season, the value of the first-round pick that the Bobcats received from the Clippers will be greatly reduced.

However, Xiao Pao did so well in the Clippers, and his team leadership was recognized so quickly. Chen Xiao was very happy for him. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Obviously, after Xiao Pao left the Bobcats, he has already taken the first step to prove himself. More and more people have begun to believe that he can become a superstar in the future.

After all, the team leader of the small artillery is really the best.

Compared with the small gun, Randolph, who left first, regretted not entering the All-Star again.

This time Randolph lost to Gasol of the Lakers.

The Lakers are now No. 1 in the West, and Gasol has a great advantage as the Lakers second.

Not to mention Randolph, even Boozer, the boss of the host team Hornets, lost to Gasol.

Boozer has averaged 22+10 per game this season, coupled with the host advantage, logically speaking, there is a chance.

But in the end, I regretted losing the election.

So this year's All-Star, Gasol double-killed two of Chen Xiao's former teammates.

"Do you think that if Zach doesn't go this season, maybe he can make the All-Star in the Eastern Conference?"

"..."

Like Chen Xiao, there are certainly other Bobcats who care about Randolph.

Hearing the words of Bynum, who was so gloating, and looking at the complex expressions on the faces of other Bobcats players, Chen Xiao was somewhat silent.

Chen Xiao can understand Randolph's selfish behavior this season.

But the other Bobcats teammates may not be able to understand.

Many Bobcats are actually dissatisfied with Randolph's behavior at the beginning of the season.

Now that Randolph failed to hit the All-Stars, some of them must be gloating.

At least the kid Bynum thinks that if Randolph plays seriously this season, the Bobcats can be ranked in the top three, not to mention that O'Neal, Duncan, and Durant, who are just a small group, should be stable, right?

can only say…

"Time and fate."
