Super Lord of the Rings

Many of the younger generation of players imitate Wang Jun's playing style and like to watch his high-scoring games. They look forward to and envy him at the same time.

The Kings won easily at the Bulls' home court, and it was a pity that Warren didn't get the chance to face off against Wang Jun. Today Wang Jun continued to attack hard. He had opportunities but lost confidence.

With a height of 203cm and a weight of 104kg, Warren has the body to become a top defensive player, but his defense in the team is not as good as Antetokounmpo, and he still needs time to practice.

When the Bulls attacked, Collison and Splitter avoided Curry in a pick-and-roll, attracting Covington to switch defense, and the ball was distributed to the baseline to David Lee.

David Lee caught the ball and stepped back, attracting Gobert to defend him. He passed the ball inside to Split, who was cutting. Curry quickly fouled and sent the opponent to a free throw.

Split made two free throws. 16 to 12.

The Bulls mainly attacked the inside in the opening game, and the outside players played an equally obvious role. Dunleavy and Warren attracted the defense from outside the three-point line.

Curry brought it to the frontcourt and passed it to Wang Jun, pulling away to prepare for the show. Gobert did not go out and stood in the low post on the right side, attracting the Split defense.

Wang Jun dribbled the ball into the three-point line. He was followed by Warren on the right. He leaned back, held the ball in his left hand and turned to the center. He took off with his left foot as a pivot and made a "Golden Rooster Independence" fadeaway jumper. Warren jumped up and closed his eyes. The reaction was not slow, but the jump was a little slow. Wang Jun relied on his rhythm to throw the ball and hit the net.

18 to 12, personal 15th point.

With no one double-teaming him, he scored easily.

Jackson frowned deeply, unable to think of any way to limit Wang Jun's attack.

Double team? The Kings have so many pitchers, plus an inside man with the advantage of height and wingspan, there will definitely be a big gap. No double-teaming? In this state, Wang Jun will score unimaginable super high scores.

No matter what, the Bulls are going to lose.

Wang Jun was very satisfied with his performance today. During training, he had a premonition of having a seizure. It used to be once in seven games. In recent years, his shooting feels not just a muscle memory, but has been integrated into his bones. It seems that he is inaccurate only once in seven games.

The Bulls attacked, Warren was left open and missed a three-pointer from the left. He was always thinking about how to defend Wang Jun in the next round and was a little distracted.

Gobert grabbed the rebound and passed it to Wang Jun. He quickly brought it to the frontcourt from the right, giving people the impression that he was going to rush to the basket in one breath. Warren retreated quickly.

Wang Jun suddenly stopped in front of the three-point line, stepped back slightly with his right foot, held the ball with his right hand, and moved closer with his left hand.

Warren hurriedly stopped and took a step forward, raising his arm to interfere with the shot. Wang Jun made a fake move of "worshiping to Buddha" and changed direction to the middle, successfully passing the pass.

Once a player loses his center of gravity, he cannot defend him. Warren watched Wang Jun pass by.

David Lee returned to defense quickly and stepped forward to cover the defense. When Wang Jun was about to get close to him, he pulled the ball and jumped with both feet. He turned 360 degrees clockwise and bypassed David Lee. He turned to the right basket and picked it up with a low hand. Basket, hit the board to score.

20 to 12, personal 17th point.

ESPN's Van Gundy yelled: "He does that layup again. I love this sport."

McBrin said with a smile: "Wang Jun now regards himself as a member of the Harlem basketball team, making random moves. I don't know what words to use to describe him. It doesn't matter whether the opponent is too close or too far. You can't think of it." What he will do next is impossible to prevent without double-teaming him."

Dunleavy ran from the bottom line, relied on Split to get rid of Carroll, caught the ball and made a three-pointer, 20-15.

Wang Jun caught the ball, and Warren and Dunleavy double-teamed him from the outside. Wang Jun passed to Carroll, who missed a three-point shot.

Zhang Liang said: "The Bulls used Jordan's rules to guard against Wang Jun. If others made the shot, they would admit it. Most teams dealt with the Kings this way, otherwise Wang Jun would definitely have higher points per game."

Yu Jia laughed and said: "Using this tactic against the Kings can be called the suicide rule. Those teams were killed by role players' three-pointers. Wang Jun is not Jordan, he is more terrifying. The double-team must be outside the three-point line." Just do it, otherwise he can easily find space to shoot."

Zhang Liyi nodded and said: "Some fans left a message asking, has Wang Jun surpassed Jordan now? It's hard to say. Wang Jun's personal honors and dominance are not inferior to those of retired NBA stars, but he still needs to win more personal honors."

Yu Jia added: "Some fans asked, can Wang Jun surpass Russell in terms of the number of championships he has won in his career? It mainly depends on whether he can maintain a good competitive state, and also whether he has good teammates in the future. Russell's 11 rings are among the hand."

Yu Jia asked and answered himself: "I think he can do it. If he plays until the age of 40, he still has many years to create miracles."

The Bulls played very patiently on offense, using up almost 24 seconds in positional battles, slowing down the pace and trying to prevent counterattacks.

Wang Jun also changed his playing style, from with the ball to without the ball.

James, Kobe, Wade and others are not as good as Wang Jun because they are much worse at playing without the ball. Even without the ball, they mainly score by cutting to the basket. Wang Jun can run around, catch the ball and shoot from various positions without any blind spots.

In this case, the zone defense cannot double-team, nor can man-to-man double-team. Following Wang Jun without the ball, there may be gaps everywhere. The Bulls are man-to-man, and they cannot do this. They must directly leave one open. people.

Covington quickly got a three-point opportunity and hit a three-pointer from the right corner. Curry also received a pass from Wang Jun during the counterattack and hit a three-pointer.

Wang Jun not only scored, but also had two assists, declaring the Bulls' defense to have failed.

He used a stray step in the counterattack, passed Split with his speed, caused a pulling foul, and pushed the ball to the basket with one hand from outside the three-point line. The referee awarded three free throws.

Wang Jun made all three free throws steadily.

Split took a break after two fouls, Taj Gibson came on, and the Kings also made substitutions. Patterson came on to replace Covington, and the tactic became a double pick-and-roll.

After that, Gobert scored 4 points. He once caught Wang Jun to attract the defense and then misplaced the ball and hit hard. He once grabbed an offensive rebound and made a second attack.

Near the end of the first quarter, two insiders provided Wang Jun with cover. Wang Jun received the ball from the left and took one step towards the three-point line. He turned around and made a three-pointer without interference.

In the first quarter, he scored 23 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists, leading the Kings to a 35-23 lead.

In the second quarter, the Kings sent Brooks, Courtney Lee, Aminu, Patterson, and Whiteside. The Bulls drafted Augustin, Hinrich, Antetokounmpo, Mirotic, and Taj Gibson.

Mirotic was in trouble and hit two three-pointers from the outside. He was also able to break through and score with the ball. He played very flexibly. Hinrich hit a three-pointer from the outside and assisted Taj Gibson to pass through Pat. Sen successfully dunked and quickly caught up with the score.

Wang Jun came on the court after only 4 minutes of rest, replacing Brooks as a guest point guard to strengthen defense.

This arrangement caught the Bulls off guard. Wang Jun caught the ball in the backcourt, brought it to the frontcourt, and launched an attack directly. The Bulls didn't know how to double-team him.

On the defensive end, Aminu guarded Antetokounmpo to death. The two had similar styles, and Antetokounmpo's style of play was useless to him.

Relying on Mirotic's heroic personal performance, the Bulls stubbornly held on to the score. The Kings led 65 to 57 at halftime.

In the last 7 games, Mirotic has had 20+ points in a row and 30+ points in one game. He is expected to compete for the best sixth man this season.

Wang Jun scored another 16 points in a single quarter and 39 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists in the half. People were surprised to find that he could still reach double figures in assists despite scoring super high scores.

He still has plenty of energy and is ready to continue the offensive in the second half.
