Zhang Hao of the 1995, Duncan of the 1999, Kobe of the 1991, Yao Ming of the 2001... This statement has been very popular with a super star in odd years.

On the one hand, the media is saying that the "the most anticipated rookie is not an American" is a shame for American basketball, and on the other hand, it is saying that "Yao Ming is a genius cultivated by American basketball", and is also using Yao Ming to increase the popularity of this year's draft...

In terms of public opinion, Zhang Hao can just watch it. In the past two years, even if Yao Ming finished his first thought last year, there is a great chance that he would be selected first.

In this situation this year, American college students have no one expected to enter the top three rankings, and all Americans who are expected to enter the top three rankings are high school students.

What surprised Zhang Hao was that the high school students' leagues in each state were almost over, but Kwame Brown was not the biggest draft hottest in the American high school basketball industry this year, but Tyson Chandler!

Kwame Brown's voice is not low, mainly because of Kwame Brown's physical condition, which looks like Olajuwon's body + Garnett's athletic ability + Kobe's hands.

But after winning the Georgia Basketball Master for two consecutive years, Mit Walton, head coach of Atlanta Green College High School where Kwame Brown is located, said in an interview that Kwame Brown's psychological quality is not strong enough. If he enters the NBA, he may have doubts about himself because he directly enters a field with an excessively high level.

However, Mitt Walton did not stop Kwame Brown from skipping college to participate in the NBA draft. Kwame Brown's family is not well off, and even when he doesn't go out to make money early, his younger brothers and sisters will go hungry.

Judging from high school performance, Kwame Brown will most likely win the award in the next "Best High School Student in America" ​​selection in late March.

But as far as Zhang Hao learned, Kwamei Brown is not the most favored among the three high school students...

‘Why did Boss Qiao choose Kwame Brown as the No. 1 pick? What’s the point? If you want a fighter who can win immediately, choose Gasol!

Garnett, Kobe, McGrady, and James can't count on him.'

Zhang Hao was watching Kwamei Brown in the TV screen...

‘It looks a bit like Boss Qiao, who is nearly 40 years old now...’

...

The Supersonics attach great importance to this year's draft market.

Because they have two first-round picks, even if the Nets' pick is not much higher, it is a lottery pick at least.

In the first and second rounds, should we use it as a bargaining chip for trading reinforcement or choose the right combat power? This needs to be planned according to the actual situation.

These things are very important to ensure the continuity of the team's strength in the next few years.

However, the situation in the NCAA has not yet been determined. For example, Yao Ming's average playing time has increased from 30 minutes to 34 minutes after the Christmas holiday, and the team's role has been adjusted.

At 6:40 pm on February 8, Seattle Key Stadium, the Bulls players who played away were entering the field.

"Bryant Bryant, 22 years old, 198 cm, 95 kg, ability evaluation 97... Average playing time of 42 minutes, averaging 31.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.2 steals... A shooting percentage of 46.5%, a three-point shooting percentage of 36.7%, and averaging 1.9 three-point shooting percentage of 1.9 times..."

"Trecy McGrady, 21 years old, 203 cm, 94 kg, ability evaluation 96... Average playing time of 39.1 minutes, averaged 20.6 points, 7.5 rebounds, 9 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks... shooting percentage is 45.1%, three-point shooting percentage is 35.5%, and 2.3 three-point shooting percentage is 2.3 times per game..."

"Brad Miller, 24 years old, 211 cm, 110 kg, ability evaluation 81, offense 74, defense 83, pass 88... Average 10.4 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.8 blocks..."

"Fred Hoyberg, 28 years old, 193 cm, 92 kg, ability evaluation 74... Average 9.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.3 steals..."

"The Chicago Bulls, 34 wins and 17 losses in the 2000-2001 season, second in the Eastern Conference, averaging 93.1 points per game, averaging 89.7 points per game, shooting percentage of 44.7%, limiting the opponent's shooting percentage of 42.8%..."

When Zhang Hao appeared on the opposite side, he looked at the player detection report on the opposite side and said, "Good guy."

Let’s look at the other Bulls players again, and it’s another saying ‘good guy’.

Let's take a look at the Bulls' overall report...'How did this team win so many games?'

Finally, I went back and looked at the playing time between Kobe and McGrady, and I could understand...'Larry Brown is awesome!'

I looked at the three-point shooting between McGrady and Kobe...

‘Larry Brown probably has a hard time with the Bulls. With Kobe’s personality, he probably uses Larry Brown as a defensive assistant.’

In addition to Kobe and McGrady, the best player of the Bulls is a 98-year undraft pick, Brad Miller.

Except for Kobe, McGrady, and Brad Miller, the Bulls cannot find the third player with a 75 ability evaluation. Not to mention 75, there are not many players with a 70-plus ability evaluation. Rookie Desmond Mason, 69's ability evaluation, all averaged 20 minutes per game, scoring 6 points and 3 rebounds.

The Bulls have five rookie players this year, Dalypole Baglish and Jack Wozkul in the first round, averaged less than two points per game, and have long been abandoned by Larry Brown.

AJ Gaiton, 178 cm in the second round, and Kharid Amin, 185 cm in the NBA point guards, played well at one time, and both averaged 6 points and 2 assists per game for a while.

Then, the two of them have been reimbursed until now.

In addition to Desmond Mason, who was selected for his own draft pick, the Bulls cleared the draft picks that were exchanged for "Jordan Remnants" in the summer of 1998 and 1999, and were wiped out.

Although in the team meeting, video and scout report, Zhang Hao has learned that the Bulls are second in the Eastern Conference, supported by Kobe and McGrady.

During the team's tactical meeting, the coaching staff also analyzed that the Bulls were basically Kobe, McGrady, and Brad Miller, and the rest were similar no matter who they played. Anyone had an open shot, and as long as they had playing time, the role players could get a few points in a game.

Now I really saw the player detection report, which is even more exaggerated than what Zhang Hao thought!

After entering the court, the Bulls players actively went to greet Jordan, the first player in the team history, especially McGrady, who had played with Jordan for a year, and knew how strong Jordan was back then... Of course, he is also very strong now. If he fights one-on-one, McGrady doesn't have much confidence to win.

However, even his playing style was imitating Jordan. Everyone knew that Kobe, who was a loyal fan of Jordan, did not talk to Jordan, but ran to Zhang Hao, preparing to provoke!

Before Kobe could speak, Zhang Hao, who saw Kobe running over, spoke first: "Kobe, your teammates are so weak..."

This sentence has suffocated all the trash talks that Kobe has been brewing before the season to the present!

I wonder if I don’t have a good talk?

After holding it in for a while, Kobe only said one sentence: "I know your teammate is strong!"

After saying that, Kobe turned around and left. He couldn't criticize Zhang Hao's teammates for being so strong!

Even when his teammates are not that strong, Zhang Hao's team performance is better than him...'I will never give you gifts when your next son is born!'

Thinking about the fact that when Zhang Hao's second son was born, he gave him a customized three-wheeler for children and added a bunch of gifts to Zhang Hao's eldest son and daughter, Kobe regretted it!

On the other side, Zhang Hao watched Kobe come and wander around, affirmed that he was Zhang's teammate was powerful, and then left, a little confused.

‘This little blacksmith ran over with a fierce momentum and said this? No wonder one record sold 800 copies…’

Zhang Hao remembered O'Neal's rap record written by him, Zhang, sold more than 60,000 copies, and sold gold records, and earned more than 200,000 US dollars in copyright fees.

Kobe released records at his own expense of US$150,000 and sold more than 800 copies, which basically means how much money he invested and how much he lost.

A small number of people who buy records are bought by Mr. Zhang, who sells face. It is said that more than 300 copies were bought by Kobe himself and given to fans.

But... the song is really bad. I used all the English words and used gorgeous words, and didn't write any stories. I was writing about the moral character of being a human being. It felt like I was copying the "Divine Comedy"...

...

At 7 p.m., the Supersonics' home game against the Bulls started.

The Supersonics sent a combination of Kassel, Jordan, Artest, Zhang Hao, and Ben Wallace.

The Bulls sent a combination of Fred Hoyberg, Kobe, McGrady, Eric Williams and Gerald Miller.

Just looking at the lineup, the gap between the two teams is very big. After the game begins, the Supersonics quickly took the initiative.

But don’t say that the Bulls’ lineup, single defense and team defense, are all very good!

Kobe, first defense level, McGrady focuses on organizing offense and defense, and is also selected as the best defense team. Brad Miller looks slow, but the defense is tough at the basket, the ball quotient is high, and the defense is excellent.

Eric Williams' defensive movement, remedial and assisted defense are above the level.

Fred Hoyberg, the second round of the 1995th round, had a bleak first four years of his career, but later last season, Larry Brown was highly valued after becoming the Bulls coach, and averaged more than 1+ per game. Although he was a white man, his defense was tough and he could shoot and pass.

The point is that McGrady is doing a good job in defending Jordan based on her height and wingspan.

When the score difference was the largest in the first quarter, the Supersonics once led by 9 points 21-12, but in the end, they only led by 4 points 27-23.

Larry Brown's coaching is to build defense well and use the main force on the offensive end to death.

It was not very obvious last season. This season, the Bulls' defense has changed a lot.

Larry Brown is really good at building a defensive system. According to the opponent's height, Kobe and McGrady have one main defense and the other auxiliary, and the other high-intensity confrontation of oppressive defense are very powerful.

Kobe's super physical strength, coupled with McGrady's assistance, and Brad Miller's excellent mid-range shots and setters...

The Bulls’ style of playing is to endure!

After a while, the opponent's main force was tired first, he was replaced and rested first, and Kobe then led the team to counterattack.

From a certain perspective, Larry Brown is really suitable for Kobe to polish his skills to the extreme early in his career.

With McGrady's offensive support and a defensive system, Kobe can always lead the team to counterattack when the start is unfavorable.

...

After playing for a quarter of the game, the Supersonics learned why the Bulls had a record of 34 wins and 17 losses with such a bad lineup.

Although the Bulls have poor strength except for dual-core and center, most of the athletic ability and confrontation are good. Larry Brown has done a good job in building team defense.

This reflects the importance of an excellent coach. Larry Brown has been criticized in many aspects, but it may be difficult for anyone in the entire league to be able to compete with the defense.

In the second quarter, the Bulls dragged the situation down. The two teams scored 22-21 in a single quarter. The Bulls chased the score to 45-48 after halftime, only 3 points behind.

Jordan and Kobe had a fight once last year, and at that time he called him "I'm Yingguo".

But now, Jordan feels that Kobe is even more sexy than him!

He threw 19 times in the half, made 8 of 19 shots, including 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws, so he scored 23 points in the half.

The shooting rate is not high, but the other Bulls' shooting rate is not much better. At this time, Kobe dared to throw it, shoot high, and score high goals!

If it was Jordan last year, he would have started playing with Kobe, even if he met McGrady, who was suitable for defending him.

But this time, Jordan chose to wait patiently and listen to the coaching staff's arrangements... Zhang Hao, the "Mattfighter", was not in a hurry, why did he beg his old club?

Although it was unhappy to break up with the Bulls, it was not as much hated as Zhang Hao and the Nets as before.

Zhang Hao and the Lakers... Jordan didn't see how much Zhang Hao hated the Lakers. He won the championship in a team more than once. The relationship is always subtle and cannot be simply described as grudges.
To be continued...
