Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 276 If you fail to break the record, then break another one? [Second update, ask for a monthly pass! 】

The Christmas War begins.

The finals repeat.

Zhang Weiping commented when the two-ball player appeared: "Lu Yu's rise is too fast. If you told Michael Jordan that Lu Yu would have grown to this level during the draft last year, it is estimated that Jordan would not choose Brown if he killed him. Of course , You told Jordan last summer that Jordan wouldn't believe that Lu Yu became the top player in the league in just one season."

Sun Yiping added: "Lu Yu's strength reminds me of the top five players in history, Jordan and Magic, whose careers are also full of miracles. Now for Lu Yu and the Bulls, What they have to cross is the mountain of the Lakers."

In the finals last season, the Bulls lost to the Lakers. Anyone can see that the Bulls have no opponents in the East this season, and only a few teams in the West can cause trouble for them.

The most likely one is the Lakers.

Don't look at the Lakers' record now, but everyone understands that when O'Neal returns to health, it will be a matter of minutes for them to make the playoffs.

After the game started, the Lakers used their familiar triangle tactics, and O'Neal kept hitting the basket.

The Lakers last season used O'Neal's dominance to defeat the Bulls' inside line. The two teams are old rivals and both understand each other's play style. It's just that the Lakers are still the same Lakers, but the Bulls are no longer the Bulls of last season. .

O'Neal was constantly attacked by the young Boozer, and Boozer, who was well versed in the dark sciences, often stepped on O'Neal's toes intentionally or unintentionally, making O'Neal shoot the mouse.

After three quarters, the game entered garbage time, and the Bulls won 113-91 easily.

Kobe Bryant had almost no possession of the ball in the audience. O'Neal had just come back, and he was used to asking for the ball numerous times for singles in the interior when he was the boss.

O'Neal's overall data looked good, with 27 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists, but the shooting percentage was only 53%. For an inside player, the shooting percentage was pitifully low.

Cartwright didn't even use shark slashing tactics.

Kobe Bryant only scored 16 points and 5 rebounds. Lu Yu felt a little distressed when he looked at him with a depressed expression. The little blacksmith was not tough in this game, but his tactical position on the team was not as high as Lu Yu, and he had no chance to make a shot.

On the other hand, the Bulls.

陆余外线手感一般，12投5中，三分球5中2，罚球8中8，拿到20分7篮板7助攻的数据。

Hamilton played well, scoring 17 points and 4 assists. Richardson made a three-pointer, made all 5 shots, no mid-range, no free throws, and scored 15 points and 8 assists.

The regular performance of the three is enough to win the underperforming Lakers. The key is that the bench lineup has performed well. There are three people in the bench lineup alone who scored in double figures.

Brad Miller now feels like he's on the verge of becoming the No. [-] man on the team.

But he didn't care so much. After all, his salary in the team is high, and the statistics of each game are not bad. He averaged 15 points and 12 rebounds per game, and the double-double data can guarantee whether it is to renew the contract or become free in the future. Players get a good salary.

After the game, the slogan of "Bull Championship" has already been proposed on the Internet, which has caused discussions among many fans.

"The Bulls' record is definitely the first in the league now. After all, the 30-game winning streak is here, but is it a little early to say the championship?"

"In the East, the Bulls can be called the only one, but in the West, they can't really be the strongest team."

"Eastern teams and Western teams play less often, and the Bulls have few Western teams to win now. Let's talk about when they win all of the Western teams."

On the Internet, fans who support the Western team unceremoniously hit back at Bulls fans.

But more and more fans believe that the Bulls this season is unstoppable.

On December 12, the Bulls beat the Timberwolves away and won 28 consecutive victories.

Garnett is tough and has a good record this season. At least it looks like the playoffs are okay, and it feels better than last year. Coach Saunders even said it was the best opening season in their history.

The combination of Garnett and Billups looks like a low-profile version of OK, but the Lakers' OK combination is a combination of a shooting guard and a center, while the Timberwolves are a combination of a point guard and a power forward.

比卢普斯这场比赛拿到了19分8次助攻5个篮板的数据，加内特更是拿到33分14个篮板的大号两双。

At first glance, the two of them thought the Timberwolves had won the game. In fact, they were in a state of chasing points throughout the game. The reason why Garnett played well is because Boozer is short and defends his type. Players suffer the most.

It stands to reason that Cartwright should let Chandler play, but in the regular season, it is necessary to let Boozer suffer a little loss, so he didn't change it at all.

Therefore, the combination of the low-profile version is a low-profile after all.

The high-profile ones all lost to the Bulls, and the low-profile ones could only hate the Northwest.

117 to 90, the Bulls won.

Immediately after, the Bulls defeated the Nets again. Last season, the Nets could still create some difficulties for the Bulls. This season, the Nets did not have the slightest chance to fight back against the Bulls.

In Lu Yu's previous life, the Nets entered the finals for the second time this season, but unfortunately they finally lost to the Spurs.

It can only be said that the hard power is indeed a little worse.

After the Bulls beat the Nets, the winning streak has come to 32 consecutive victories, just one game away from tying the Lakers' 33-game winning streak.

After playing the Nets, Lu Yu won the Eastern Conference Player of the Month again.

The Bulls' record ranks first in the Eastern Conference, and Lu Yu is the core of the Bulls. With his single-core leadership, all teams in the league are envious.

The 33rd battle is also the first day of 2003, on January 1st, the Bulls at home against the Spurs!

Because it is a home game, the media are ready to directly announce that the Bulls have tied the Lakers' winning streak, because the Bulls have not lost at home in the regular season for a long time.

The Bulls' United Center Arena is also the most devilish away game in the entire league.

No one expected that the Bulls fell behind at the beginning, trailing by 19 points at halftime, Hamilton and Richardson became blacksmiths, the role players played abnormally, and Lu Yu was alone.

Everyone in the Spurs wants to win. Parker has always regarded Lu Yu as a competitor. Popovich even said that Lu Yu is the player he should learn from. Manu Ginobili has no chance to play in the World Championships. Argentina lost Given to the Chinese men's basketball team, he has always wanted to pull back a game, but he has no chance.

This time, he finally got a chance, but it's a pity that Lu Yu is playing a small forward, and there are very few opportunities for the two to face each other.

It was Bowen who was defending Lu Yu.

Although Lu Yu was not afraid of Bo Wen, he also scored 33 points, but the Spurs players were too accurate, and Duncan was also very aggressive inside. Lu Yu made a three-pointer in the last minute of the game to drag the game into overtime .

Boozer left the game with six fouls in overtime, and he could only replace the old Oakley. Chandler was inexperienced in dealing with Duncan, and it was this substitution that made the Bulls lose the game.

Oakley can't stop Duncan!
Duncan scored 7 points in a row and ended the game directly.

The final 113 to 116, the Bulls lost the game, but also lost the opportunity to tie the historical record.

Although it failed to tie the historical record, the Bulls were not discouraged. They found the reason for losing the game from this loss.

Although they got Boozer through the draft this season, they strengthened the position of power forward.

But Boozer is not an All-Star after all.

It is still very difficult to withstand the top power forwards in the league.

Whether it's Garnett or Duncan, his defense is very poor, especially after the win over the Timberwolves, the Bulls took it lightly.

Thought that only Garnett played out, can not beat the Bulls.

But there are times when other Bulls players fail. Just like in this game, when other players fail and the power forward is broken again, then Lu Yu alone cannot win the game.

Most importantly, the Bulls did not pay attention to the phenomenon of the power forward being attacked.

They didn't keep flanking O'Neal like they did with the Lakers to relieve the pressure on the inside, and finally caused Boozer to leave the field with six fouls.

This is the biggest reason why the Bulls lost this game.

In the next game in January, the Bulls will continue to revise their mistakes. In January, the Bulls' opponents were not strong, and they were basically the underdogs. The loss of this game also made the Bulls put down their burdens. , you can face the next game with a more relaxed mind.

Breaking records is both motivation and pressure.

When there is no such pressure, the Bulls play stronger.

The opponents in January are the Cavaliers, Wizards, Knicks, Bucks, Heat, Hawks, Rockets, Clippers, all underdogs, and the Bulls are not afraid.

At this time, a fan asked: "Although the Bulls cannot break the Lakers' 33-game winning streak, can the Bulls break Jordan's 72-win regular season record this season?"

If you were to ask the greatest team in NBA history, the answer would most likely be the 1996 Chicago Bulls.

Even in Lu Yu's previous life, their regular-season record of 2016 wins and 72 losses in 10 was broken by the Golden State Warriors, but you must know that they won the championship this year, but the Warriors missed it.

The '95-96 Bulls showed the world what true dominance is.

33岁的迈克尔·乔丹打出了场均30.4分、6.6个篮板、4.3次助攻、2.2次抢断的顶级表现，再次获得了常规赛MVP。

Pippen returned to his status as the strongest second-in-command, averaging 19.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game. Both of them were selected for the best first team.

In addition, they recruited the king of trouble Dennis Rodman, in this team, he once again played the role of rebounding king, averaging 5.5 points, 14.9 rebounds.

The "Iron Triangle" was selected for the best defensive team together, which was definitely the strongest combination at the time.

The question was asked after the Bulls beat the Blazers on Jan. 1.

On January 1th, the Bulls played the Wizards away, and the opponent they faced was Michael Jordan, who created a record of 5 wins that year!
