bull

Chapter 889
In the battle between the Timberwolves and the Bulls, the performance of Bai Jidong and Rose is the focus of attention.

The two finally presented a classic duel. The suspense of the game was stalemate until the last few seconds. Bai Jidong first made a three-pointer to kill. In the remaining few seconds, the Bulls made a foul and Ross counted down the buzzer to kill.

"Derrick Rose's ball seemed to say to the white wolf, "Dude, it's 2010, this is my era!" ""

"Even if you are a white wolf, you have to bow your head in the face of changes in the world."

Bai Jidong was about to leave the stage when Ross ran towards him, "White Wolf."

"That shot was great." Bai Jidong laughed.

Rose said: "I have been a Bulls fan since I was a child, and you and Tracy represent my youth."

"I'm very honored." Bai Jidong didn't know how to feel when the young man who had just led the team to beat his own game said these words.

Rose said: "I hope I can make you proud. I will lead Chicago to rebuild its glory."

"Your time is coming soon." Bai Jidong hoped that he could correctly predict Rose's future like the general manager of the Pistons predicted Jordan.

However, he is not a prophet who predicts the future, this is just a good wish, who knows what will happen in the future.

The Timberwolves have ended their winning streak, but the season will continue, and they cannot stop here.

The third away game of the six-game winning streak is Toronto. Bai Jidong likes this place. The fans here are very noisy. When Bosh brought his talent to the South Coast, it became even more noisy here.

Raptors fans are stubborn, even if they lose the core of the team, they are still hostile to all invading enemies.

"Interesting, let's have a good fight with them." Bai Jidong showed extremely strong fighting spirit at the beginning.

The Timberwolves, who had just experienced a narrow defeat, did not want to suffer a two-game losing streak, so they didn't spare any effort.

Hang the Raptors up and flatten them madly in front of the fans.

When Bosh was still around, the fans here always called themselves the Northern Army, but now that their King of the North has abandoned them, they have to support a new king.

This person must have the same strength as Bosh, where is such a person?I can't see it now.

Under the leadership of Bai Jidong, the Timberwolves knocked out the Raptors at the beginning of the game, and the continuous attack defeated the Raptors.

At the end of the first quarter, Eust Ziegler heard Rambis' call.

After a long-lost call, Ziegler stood up and listened to Rambis' instructions.

"Coach, what do you need me to do?" Ziegler sensed that this might be his last chance.

He has a non-guaranteed contract, and the team can cut him at any time. If he can't perform to the satisfaction of Rambis this time, his time in the Timberwolves will be over.

"Defense and rebounding, let Toronto people know who owns the penalty area!"

Defense and rebounding, that's something Ziegler hasn't been showing.

Under the Timberwolves system, a backup center does not need too many skills, only defense and rebounding.

These two requirements seem simple, but it is not something that can be done by just finding one person.

The restricted area is the cruelest place to fight, fight!Damn confrontation!

If the NBA doesn't pay attention to confrontation, Ziegler can even start in the middle and lower reaches of the team, and confrontation limits his development.

Ziegler took a few deep breaths, stood on the sidelines, and waited for dead ball time.

Playing with Ziegler was Stevenson. Even though he was a rookie like him, Stevenson was always full of energy.

"Big man, relax, you're too nervous." Stevenson gently pressed Ziegler's shoulder.

Ziegler said gratefully, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, wait a minute we need your defense and rebounding, especially rebounding, you have to catch those damn rebounds, or the coach may not let you play again." Fellow rookies, Stevenson and Ziger Le is closer.

Ziegler naturally knew what he said.

At this time, Milicic made a defensive foul and sent the 06 champion Lang Andrea Bargnani to the free throw line.

The first free throw was hit, the sound of the technical table sounded from the sidelines, and the Timberwolves made a substitution.

Bai Jidong and Milicic are off.

Bai Weidong and the two rookies who replaced him high-fived, Ziegler was suspicious, and patted Bai Weidong's hand out of his mind.

Bai Jidong stopped in his tracks and called out to him, "Youst."

Ziegler looked back at him, Bai Jidong said: "You think too much, things are not as complicated as you think."

"Thank you." Ziegler said gratefully.

Bargnani also hit the second free throw. This European insider with Dirk Nowitzki as a template has an outstanding touch.

"It's okay, we'll call back right away." Zhao Li clapped his hands to encourage his teammates.

The Raptors lost Bosh, but they already have the core players of the future.

The second-year DeMar DeRozan is currently averaging 18 points per game and is the most reliable scoring point for the Raptors outside.

Zhao Li controlled the ball from the outside, and his opponent was Barbosa, known as the Brazilian Lightning.

After leaving the sun, Barbosa started a new journey.

In Toronto, he could use his talent to his fullest, just not as many wins.

"Chinaman, you are far worse than the white wolf!" Barbosa couldn't get Bai Jidong, so he could only get Zhao Li.

Zhao Li knew that Barbosa was Bai Jidong's defeated opponent, "Are all Brazilians as verbose as you?"

At this time, Yi Lian ran up to cooperate with Zhao Li in a pick-and-roll.

Zhao Li's speed was so fast that Barbossa lost him in a trance.

"Wolf Zhao looks more like Lightning than Barbossa!"

Bai Weidong stood up and applauded, the ball was played extremely beautifully.

Barbosa didn't say that he lost someone, but also let Zhao Li rush to the basket, relying on Bargnani to score a layup.

Fortunately, it was Bargnani...Bai Jidong helped Zhao Li sweat.

Bargnani used Nowitzki as a template, the offense was six-point similar, and the defense was 100% restored to Nowitzki.

Especially the defensive breakthrough is simply Nowitzki possessed.

This kind of defense is a disaster for the inside line. As far as Bai Jidong knows, there is only one Dirk Nowitzki who eventually becomes a superstar.

And Nowitzki is recognized as one of the strongest offensive players in history at the power forward position. His offense is enough for the team to tolerate his defense.

In order to cover Nowitzki's defense, how many inside and outside blue collars did the Mavericks find?

The embarrassing thing about Bargnani is that his defense is on par with Nowitzki, but his offense is not even half of Nowitzki's skill. This positioning is really embarrassing.

Bai Jidong sat and watched the lions and tigers fight. Although Rambis had little coaching experience, he found a very good opponent for Ziegler.

Bargnani is already considered a soft player in the league. If Ziegler can't show a little toughness in front of him, then there is no need to try again, just lay off and choose someone else.

Bargnani knew that Ziegler was a rookie and intended to take him to the fore.

For a player of his stature, Bargnani is fast and quick on his feet, especially the first step when breaking through.

Ziegler watched Bargnani's every move nervously.

Bargnani's start-up speed was astonishing. Even though he had been vaccinated by the team's video analyst before the game, he was still shocked when he saw it on the spot.

Bargnani rushed to the basket and made a layup.

"Defense! Yost, how could you let him break through you so easily?" Rambis yelled.

Ziegler is under tremendous pressure. If he cannot prove himself in this game, he will be greeted with a ruthless layoff notice.

"Kevin, in your opinion, how about Yost?" Bai Jidong asked Old Willis.

Old Willis said: "This kid has skills and brains. He should be able to gain a foothold in the NBA, as long as he has the courage to compete with others."

"The courage to fight against others?"

It is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do.

"There is no shortage of players like him in the development league. If he can't, those who wait for the opportunity will rush to take his position."

"Maybe he has the ability to gain a foothold in the NBA, but he won't get another chance to prove himself."

"For a player like him, every opportunity should be doubled."

Old Willis's words were not nice, but they were the truth.

Ziegler also understands this truth, this is his best chance, no one can help him, no one can rely on, if he can't prove himself, he will be greeted with a contract termination letter.

There is an abyss behind him, and Ziegler will never back down.

Zhao Li played a pick-and-roll with Yi Lian again.

Zhao Li passed the ball to Yi Lian in the high position, who received the ball and made a jump shot.

Missing the strike, Bargnani's first reaction was to jam Ziegler.

He did, and Ziegler turned around and took the initiative to fight.

"Rookie, do you think you can beat me?" Bargnani said with a hideous face.

Ziegler didn't reply, and used all his strength to confront.

This is the first time Bai Jidong has seen such a tough Ziegler, even though the opponent is only a well-known soft guy in the alliance, it can be regarded as an improvement.

"If he can maintain this performance until the end, maybe the coach can give him a little more patience." Bai Jidong said.

Old Willis smiled and said nothing. He thought that such a performance might not satisfy Rambis.

What Rambis wants is Medved's substitute, not the water dispenser who dares to fight hard during garbage time.

There is an essential difference between rotation and garbage time rotation.

The main substitute rotation is rare, and there are a lot of garbage time rotations.

If the main substitute rotation is used as the standard, Ziegler is still far behind.

The game continued, and Ziegler showed a completely different appearance from the usual, whether it was unintentional or intentional.

Trash talk on every defense like never before.

The protection of the defense is also tough, even if you can't grab it, you have to shoot the ball outside.

His confrontation is still very problematic, but he is changing.

The problem of confrontation can be solved through training. It is important to have a heart that dares to confront.

It seemed that Ziegler had finally found it.

If you dare to fight, you have the potential to become a blue-collar worker.

He has a net height of seven feet. Although his wingspan is not long and his physical fitness is average, if he is willing to work hard, the coaching staff will not give up on him easily.

This is his chance.

At the end of the first quarter, when Ziegler left the field, he saw Rambis smiling.

He didn't know if Rambis was satisfied with his performance, he only knew that he had tried his best.
