Chapter 850 849. This Time, It's Chicago's Turn
"Thank you to Chicago: The Chicago Bulls have entered the post-Jordan era. The management continues the magic of the draft, but is unable to enjoy the magical magic of the draft. The host became the Bulls in their first encounter after the Bulls rose again. The souls killed by the team have become the stepping stones for the Bulls to become famous. In order to thank the Bulls, the host needs to send the most perfect thank you gift. One time is not enough, and it needs to leave a long-lasting and deep impression on the Bulls.
Mission goal: Starting from this game against the Chicago Bulls, for each win, 1,000 superstar points will be awarded. Starting from the second game, the superstar value will be the number of consecutive wins multiplied by 1,000. Mission end conditions: Chicago Bulls this time ZTE failed, the Bulls disintegrated; the winning streak ended.
Special reward: If the host remains undefeated against the Bulls from the beginning of this game until the disintegration of this Bulls team, and becomes one of the key reasons for the collapse of the Bulls, the host will receive the title: Brother Ace, and then the host will lead the team. When encountering the Bulls, they have an absolute psychological advantage over the Bulls. When the Bulls players encounter the host, the morale of the team collapses. "
After defeating Detroit, is it Chicago's turn this time?
Brother Esjia... doesn't seem to sound very good either...
However, the effect satisfied Liu Mang very much!
Moreover, the superstar value of the winning streak also makes him envious.
The first few times are not that much, but if they play four times in the regular season and at least four times in the playoffs, by the beginning of the second season, it will be a lot!
The Bulls were so lucky. As soon as the team was founded, they got Bob Love, a water fountain keeper from the Cincinnati Royals, the predecessor of the Kings. Who knew that changing teams was like changing lives? Made the second team and second defense All-Star, became the first Bulls player to have his jersey retired, a member of the Hall of Fame, and suddenly became a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference. The season after Bob Love retired, he was ranked fourth in the league. At that time, there were only 18 teams in the league. The team relied on the 15th pick to select Artis Gilmore, first team, first defense, All-Star, MVP...
By the end of the 1970s, after three or four years of poor performance, Jordan was chosen...
After Jordan retired in 1998, it took him six years to form the current lineup that is bursting with talent. Among the eight or nine core players, Hinrich, the oldest, is only 24 years old. He looks like he will dominate in three or four years. Alliance posture.
The Bulls have a magical power, always rising up unexpectedly without anyone noticing, but perhaps because of Jordan, all their luck has been spent, and they have that kind of accumulation. The magic power rises towards the sky, but there is no life to enjoy the results.
Just like now, Liu Mang doesn't think the Bulls have a chance to become a stumbling block for his future. Their most talented player is Eddie Curry...
…
…
"Will the Bulls replace the Hawks?" 》This is the game preview title produced by T.N.T.
"Can the Bulls recreate the magic when they face the Hawks again? Can the Hawks get revenge?" "This is the title of ESPN. Even ESPN, which has a friendly relationship with Liu Mang, chose this more topical game preview.
"The rise of the dual dynasty Bulls, the peak of the new dynasty Eagles, the battle of the century!" 》The game preview of Imperial Sports Station is much more exaggerated...
The Chaoting Channel and the Imperial Sports Channel were originally nicknamed the Rocket Channel, but now they have become the Eagle Channel. If it weren’t for the fact that the Eagles had many games too early, the Imperial Channel and the Imperial Channel would have been on Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. , broadcast whenever the Eagles have a game...
The Bulls are hot right now!
After beating the Eagles, they were on fire for days.
Visible talent, an extremely young lineup, almost all core players are on rookie contracts, only Tyson Chandler and Eddy Curry are due to renew their contracts, except for Antonio Davis' 1,200 In the last year of the contract, the highest salary was the 4.8 million contract of Chandler, the second overall pick in 2001. As long as Antonio Davis' contract expires, they can choose to renew Chandler or Eddie Curry. One, and there is still 15 million in salary space to sign a maximum-salary player.
This is almost a contemporary version of the SpaceX model, and it looks like the future is bright.
The Bulls were originally remembered by many fans because of Jordan. Now that they have risen, fans immediately focused their attention on the Bulls. Only then did they realize that the Bulls already have such talent. They are not the same players who have been competing for the top pick every year in the past six years. The bad team suddenly became popular.
A week later, on December 15th, the Bulls will play against the Hawks again, which suddenly attracted a lot of attention.
Compared with the last time, the Bulls were treated as weak chickens and used as a stage for the showdown between Liu Mang and Iverson. This time the Bulls relied on their strength and became the "Eagle Snipers."
In comparison, the Bulls are like the Hawks in the previous three years, with explosive talent and young talent. However, the Hawks have "self-destructed their future" and traded away several key players. Many fans and media are looking forward to the Bulls. The team can replicate the magic of the Eagles last season.
Now fans and media are looking forward to the Bulls holding on to fifth place in the Eastern Conference. It would be even better if they could meet the Hawks in the playoffs.
While it's exciting to see back-to-back championships, there's always that expectation of an upset.
Just like now, since the Hawks came to Chicago yesterday, a voting post appeared on the Internet, who thinks the Hawks have a better chance of winning against the Bulls for the second time this season.
Regardless of whether it is China or the United States, the Bulls are more optimistic, and their support rate crushes the Eagles...
Liu Mang had a little expectation when he saw this post appeared, but he didn't expect it. Compared with the vote rate of 73 to 27, Liu Mang didn't expect that he was so unpopular...
With new grudges, old grudges, and missions, Liu Mang's fighting spirit has exploded!
…
…
After ten years of being cold and no one asked, he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop.
This is what Hinrich feels now.
In the last game against the Hawks, he successfully made a name for himself... Although it was the entire team that made a name for himself, as the team commander, he received more praise than Ben Gordon and Eddie Curry. many!
Hinrich's control of rhythm has become the object of praise.
Now Hinrich is bursting with confidence, and so are the rest of the Bulls.
No matter how mature and stable they are, the Bulls are still a team composed of players in their early 20s. When I see the Eagles, I am not afraid at all. I feel that the media is now advocating that they are the next Eagles. it is true!
…
At 7:40 pm, Liu Mang and his teammates walked into the Chicago United Center after warming up.
Before he even entered the stadium, Liu Mang heard the noise. When he was the last one to enter the stadium, he was greeted by overwhelming boos.
When the Bulls players came on the field, the cheers on the scene were like dreaming back to the time when Jordan came back after his first retirement nine years ago. The Bulls fans also took it seriously, feeling that the Bulls' dynasty was about to begin again!
Hearing the cheers of the fans at the scene, the Bulls players, who now have 12 wins and 10 losses and have secured the fifth place in the Eastern Conference, were very excited, and then showed a confident posture...
"Ace, they seem very excited! Are they really planning to kill us and win the championship? I'm a little scared." Jason Terry made a scared expression.
"Yes, they are too powerful, what should we do?" Liu Mang cooperated and looked scared.
"Then we have to fight hard, otherwise we won't be able to give them such enthusiastic cheers..." Jason Terry became addicted to drama.
"Okay, okay, stop playing, warm up, win, and go to Indiana." Tracy McGrady came up to ask his teammates to calm down. His tempered glass heart is getting stronger and stronger, and he is quite prepared for this kind of thing. of indifference.
Seeing McGrady who had no innocence at all, Liu Mang and Jason Terry looked at each other. When McGrady went to discuss with the referee to deflate the ball a little bit, the two made faces at McGrady's back.
After all the fun, everyone has calmed down and the battle of revenge is coming!
…
The scene of the Eagles playing around drew bursts of boos from the audience, and the commentators from T.N.T. and ESPN, the two major TV stations who were competing for ratings on the live broadcast, didn't know what to say.
It was stated in the live broadcast promotion that the Hawks will definitely take it very seriously and they don't dare to be careless for fear of the rise of the Bulls.
Does this look like fear?
Why does it look more and more like a team of "adults" playing with a team of "children"?
You clearly don’t take the other party seriously!
The commentators on the two major North American TV stations could only laugh. They were both people who had boasted about the Bulls' talent.
The Bulls' talent is being blown to the sky these days.
However, the words of Imperial Sports Station sounded much better.
"Ace and McGrady are showing their kingly attitude. Although the Bulls have risen, they are too young. Ace and McGrady just treat them as children and just play around. Although the Bulls were once a dynasty, team, but the Hawks are the current dominant team in the NBA..."
In the past, when the two-level team was together, the fans would often watch the live broadcasts of the Imperial TV station with no sound. Now there are a new generation of commentators like Yu Jia, plus professional commentators from the middle and old generations such as Director Zhang, Xu Jicheng, and Su Qun. Together with the guests, the ratings of the live broadcast on Chaoting Channel are getting higher and higher, and fewer and fewer people are muting their voices.
But this time when watching the live broadcast of Imperial Sports Channel, people once again banned the sound...
At eight o'clock in the evening, the game was about to begin.
The Bulls players came to the court with immense confidence, ready to kill the Hawks again and start the "Road to the Dynasty."
But... I saw Liu Mang had no expression after applying the magnesium powder, and his eyes came up without any emotion...
Seeing Maddie tilting her head, her dead eyes opened slightly. She also had no expression, and you couldn't even see any psychological fluctuations...
Eddie Curry didn't even have the slightest expression when he saw Kwame Brown. He no longer had the ferocious expression he had in the past when he saw the top four pick in the same draft...
Rasheed Wallace and Prince both had cold expressions, and the Bulls players felt inexplicably frightened...
