487 Jagged Bull! The triple-double record is broken!
"I'm not forcing you to express your position. You can continue to listen to my analysis."
Jordan was not aggressive, but said calmly:
"First of all, my Hornets are not strong, so you can challenge yourself every night, shine and stand in the center of the world!
Secondly, my Hornets are not weak, and you still have a chance to win the championship!
Moreover, such a single-core championship win will win more praise and more gold than if you lead the Trail Blazers to win the championship!
Finally, Portland's market is close to saturation, but we in Charlotte have great potential and can add a lot of fans to you.
Also, if you come to Charlotte, I can promise that you will get all the benefits you get in the Trail Blazers!
Even more!"
Jordan made no secret of his recruiting intentions.
"However, I just renewed my contract with the Trail Blazers for two years, and there are at least three more seasons before the contract expires."
Zhou Si did not agree or refuse, but asked his doubts.
Jordan was not afraid that Zhou Si would have problems, but he was afraid that Zhou Si would directly refuse or not speak.
After casually taking the cigar handed by the maid and taking a puff, Jordan replied seriously:
"When you reach your position, those are not problems..."
Zhou Si thought about it for a while and it was the same. In his previous life, even Pickled Pepper and Thick Eyebrows could directly ask the team to trade him and designate the next team, so he could naturally do it.
To be honest, Zhou Si was still a little interested in Jordan's proposal, but it was a little different from his original plan.
"I need to think hard."
Jordan did not force Zhou Si to express his position, but naturally changed the topic.
Now the season has just begun, and Jordan also knows that this kind of thing cannot be negotiated directly, but at least he planted a seed and waited for it to take root and sprout!
…
Seemingly influenced by Boss Joe, Zhou Si was a little out of shape in the second night of the game and only scored a small triple-double of 22 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists.
But the Trail Blazers still beat the Hornets 145:122 by 23 points!
In front of Jordan, an old hooligan, the young hooligan Lillard played very hard, scoring a game-high 43 points without any ambiguity even with his sudden shots!
Jordan didn't care at all about this, and was even a little happy!
The less the Trail Blazers need Zhou Si, the more the other players shine, the better!
In this way, Zhou Si's chances of leaving the Trail Blazers and joining his team will be greater!
Moreover, Mr. Joe is quite satisfied with his current team.
Although knowing that the team is ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference and has a schedule advantage, there is still no hope of reaching the championship this season, but being able to rush from the playoff goalkeeper to the top half of the Eastern Conference is also a success.
Zhou Si was paddling during the game, but instead of thinking about forcing the team to trade him to the Hornets like Jordan thought, he was thinking about the reasons for the Hornets' rise this season!
Taking the essence and discarding the dross has been what Zhou Si has been doing in the past few seasons!
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Only by adjusting your playing style according to the league situation can you ensure the suppression of other teams!
In Zhou Si's view, the Hornets' progress stems from changes in their playing style——
On the offensive end, the post-classical inside style has changed to a spatial three-point small ball style that speeds up the attack;
On the defensive end, a large number of regional flanking attacks and fierce rotating assist defense were added.
This style of pursuing space, transition, and three-pointers while taking into account the inside has allowed the Hornets to rise strongly this season.
Walker's outbreak was entirely due to tactics and he followed the trend!
The media only glanced at the results of this game, and only briefly reported on Zhou Si's fourteen triple-doubles, which continued to break the record!
They are a little used to being shocked by the Trail Blazers or Zhou Si at the beginning of the season!
The next day, the Trail Blazers played the Bulls back-to-back games again attracting the attention of fans around the world!
Whether Zhou Si can extend his triple-double record to fifteen games will be interesting to watch, and the bigger point to watch is because this game is likely to be a preview of the finals!
In the past three seasons, the Bulls have won one championship and the Trail Blazers have won two championships. They can be regarded as the two most successful teams in the past three seasons!
Moreover, in the past three seasons, the Bulls have always been able to play back and forth with the Trail Blazers. They have the highest winning rate against the Trail Blazers in the league, and are jokingly called the "Blazers' nemesis" by many fans.
In fact, unlike the Portland Trail Blazers, the Bulls have struggled in the past two seasons. First, Ross was injured, and then Butler was injured. Coach Thibodeau's practice of beating players to death and causing injuries to players has been questioned by many Bulls fans.
!
In the eyes of many Bulls fans, their home team doesn't need to work so hard in the regular season. Wouldn't it be nice to learn from the Trail Blazers and Spurs about taking turns and then work hard in the playoffs?
Thibodeau is still going his own way this season, implementing iron-blooded defense throughout the Bulls.
Thibodeau, who has devoted his whole life to basketball and even gave up marrying a wife and having children, said that the Bulls' success two years ago showed that his idea of building the team was right!
What kind of rest do you want?
That's it for Iron-Blooded!
Even if the management puts pressure on Thibodeau, he turns a blind eye!
For the championship, what is a trivial injury?
This season, the Bulls continued their iron-blooded style. Although they sometimes lost games very hard, they also won the Cavaliers and Spurs very passionately!
Zhou Si's previous prediction was correct. Sauway, who returned to his hometown, fully integrated into the Bulls. The defense of the Bulls' starting five also frightened all the major teams!
The game tonight was exciting, with both teams going head-to-head!
The Trail Blazers sent out perimeter guard Oladipo to defend the Storm Rose, while the Bulls asked the experienced Sauway to lock down the little hooligan Lillard;
The Bulls let Noah stalk Jokic, while the Trail Blazers let Siakam beat bald tough guy Taj Gibson;
As for Zhou Si, he took the initiative to exchange money with Bulls wing player Jimmy Butler on this night of rest!
After the game started, the Trail Blazers and Bulls attacked and defended. The two sides fought evenly, and the score kept rising alternately.
At the end of the first quarter, the Bulls had a habitual power outage. The Trail Blazers relied on Courtney Lee's three three-pointers to launch a 15-0 spurt to take the lead.
In the second quarter, the Bulls relied on the fiery touch of the substitutes led by Lu Wei, Ye Ze and Mirotic to slightly narrow the score gap.
In the third quarter, Sao Wei touched his knee with a smile and began to lick the blood. He led the Bulls to a 27:21 victory, bringing both sides back to the same starting line.
In the final quarter, facing the Bulls' iron-blooded defense, Zhou Si stood up and carried a wave. The powerful Trail Blazers led the Bulls to a 112-104 victory.
For the Bulls, Rose had 27 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, Wade had 16 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, Butler had 15 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals, Noah had 5 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists, and Gibson had 8 points and 11
With 3 assists, Lu Wei scored 12 points, Ye Ze scored 8 points, and Mirotic scored 7 points.
For the Trail Blazers, Lillard had 17 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Oladipo had 13 points and 2 rebounds, Siakam had 11 points and 6 rebounds, Jokic had 12 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, and Courtney Lee had 17 points.
Zhou Si, 35 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists!
The Blazers' fifteen-game winning streak is uninterrupted.
However, Zhou Si's consecutive triple-double record was interrupted!
Chapter completed!
