Four hundred and thirtieth chapters [too far too much, pen and mouth]
In December, the Bulls finally lost...??`
After defeating the Celtics away and achieving 12 consecutive wins, they lost to the Pistons away.
The Pistons are recognized as the Eastern Conference powerful force. Not only is the strong lineup, but the Auburn Mountain Palace is also a famous home court of the Devil, and the fans have a particularly loud voice.
Whenever you visit Auburn Mountain as a visiting team, the number of decibels around the players will be more than one order of magnitude higher. Fans sitting behind the bench will constantly destroy their opponents with their voices throughout the game, and use this method to help the home team.
Players can only listen to the fans' shouts, and have nowhere to hide. Sometimes they can even get out of control. The noise will mess up. Of course, players hope that they can perform well on the court, but in such an environment, things often go against their wishes and many people can't stand it.
When Wang Jun came here to play the playoffs on behalf of the Nets, he inevitably accepted the hostile provocations of the fans again and again. This time he represented the Bulls, he heard the booing of the whole game as soon as he appeared, as if the fans would rush out of the field to beat him up at any time.
Pistons fans hate Wang Jun. There is a argument that the Lakers collapsed in the finals and if the Pistons break through in the East, they can easily win the championship.
Wang Jun broke their dream of winning the championship, and this hatred was too great.
In this game, the Pistons played a terrifying defense, and Wang Jun, who was defending, only scored 22 points. He made 8 of 25 shots, 2 of 8 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws.
There were gaps in other positions, and Pistons players could also make up for it by changing positions in the fast round. The score stalemate reached the last quarter. Other Bulls could not stand up and score at the critical moment. Wang Jun made four consecutive shots and lost the game...?`
After a day off, the Bulls lost to the Dallas Mavericks at home.
The Mavericks have always been Wang Jun's miserable. Since joining the NBA, his team has not been more cautious than Nowitzki's inside line.
David Lee was easily beaten against Nowitzki in this game. Chandler was also struggling to defend because Nowitzki was just playing on the outside and pulled out to shoot.
As soon as Chandler defended, he only needed a pick-and-roll and the inside line would be out of protection.
The Mavericks are not weak on the outside. Terry is a drawer, and it is terrible to draw three points. Harris is very fast and good at surpassing one step.
The Mavericks' lineup this year does not look strong, far worse than the five-player combination in the 2oo3-2oo4 season. However, their configuration is reasonable and the division of labor is clear, which is similar to the Bulls.
The offense mainly depends on Terry, Nowitzki, Josh Howard, and others defend.
In the summer, the Mavericks introduced Adrian Griffin, an outside blue-collar worker from the Bulls. He was often responsible for defense at the No. 2 position and was often responsible for the offensive end and was waiting for an opportunity to take action. Howard is also a good defender, and has made significant progress on both offense and defense this season.
The substitutes include Starkhouse, Devin Harris, Daniels, and Van Horn, who is responsible for the points, and Diop, a strong inside blue-collar, is responsible for the defense.
No matter whether it is a substitute, who makes the meat shield or who holds the ball to attack, it is very clear.
Wang Jun played for 43 minutes, made 12 of 28 shots, 4 of 12 of 3-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 3o points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists, and Lol Deng scored 26 points and 7 rebounds. The Bulls still lost 11 points and were completely beaten in the interior.
After two consecutive losses, many American sports media immediately started a new round of criticism and verbal punishment against Wang Jun.
"Wang Jun couldn't stand up when the team needed him to score high scores. He just scored points when playing weak teams."
"Two consecutive games, Wang Jun missed the shooting in the final quarter at a critical moment, and his swing in the last quarter was not as good as the first three quarters."
Online, American fans "anti-king" posts listed on data, striving to prove that Wang Jun is not as good as Kobe, Iverson, Arenas, James and others.
The important evidence listed by fans is that Wang Jun didn't score much in the fourth quarter, far inferior to several other players at the top of the scoring list.
However, Wang Jun's fourth quarter appearance time was much less than those of those players, and the weak players always played until the last moment.
Whenever the American media turns the gun to Wang Jun, he gloats about his poor performance in a game he plays poorly, but he doesn't mention the good game he plays. Wang Jun will feel racial discrimination in this country.
This is inevitable, racial discrimination in NBA has a long history.
This kind of discrimination has always existed since black player Earl Loyd made it to the NBA arena.
On Halloween in 1950, Loyd was about to debut in the NBA, which caused a strong response at that time. Before the game began, someone told him that the 3KK party would take ropes to the game site. However, in the end, there was no unexpected situation in the game.
After that, the issue of racial discrimination did not disappear in the league, and Mutombo had a dispute over the racist insulting him on the scene.
Afterwards, Mutombo said that he did not provoke fans, but someone insulted his personality, nationality and race.
In recent years, many black players have even believed that the league’s issuance of a “dressing order” is also intended to target black people’s dressing habits and is a manifestation of racial discrimination.
Asians are also discriminated against in the United States. If they are just ordinary stars, like Yao Ming, the media will praise him to attract the attention of Chinese fans and use him to enhance the commercial value of the NBA.
When players like Wang Jun appear, the media's tone becomes unanimous to the outside world.
Because Wang Jun's performance was "too much". Too much is not as good as too much, he seemed to have to step on all the local NBA players before he could stop.
As long as he could make money, President Stern had no expression, nor did he ask the referee to whistle Wang Jun and tried to suppress him with a black whistle, but the media did not want to see Wang Jun rule the league.
After flying to Orlando, Wang Jun received a call from his agent Ryan Hughes.
Hughes reminded: "Wang, in the next interview, don't say you want to win the championship or compete for the score leader. If you don't say these things, the media will not pick your faults like this, which is very abnormal."
Wang Jun smiled slightly. "So if I become low-key next and the team fails to win, will the media say that I have been defeated and cannot become arrogant?"
Hughes immediately thought that there was indeed such a possibility. As long as the media wanted to target someone, white could be said to be black.
"No matter what, I hope you can try to establish a good relationship with the media. NBA history has never had an international player with the same style as you, so I can't find an example to analyze what will happen next. Please pay more attention." Hughes could only persuade him and could not order Wang Jun to do things.
"As long as I can lead the team to win, what can the media do to me? It's not them who decide the winner." Wang Jun said disdainfully: "I'm going out for a meal, and my new teammate said he would treat me to thank me."
"The Hayes you recommended?"
"Well. He is now recognized by the coaching staff and plays well in every game. I don't think the veteran's experience is accurate every time. If he goes to the online team to find a job, no player will recommend him, so he can only go elsewhere. I'm willing to say a few more words and do something good for the team." Wang Jun was very proud, and he had a sense of accomplishment with a keen eye to recognize gold.
"You are lucky. You have a talented person. Don't meddle in other people's business in the future." Hughes sighed: "You're dead. If you have any questions that are not accurate, remember to notify me of what is difficult to make decisions. I can give you some ideas."
"Thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Hughes felt that all these words were in vain.
Wang Jun likes to make decisions by himself and is not afraid of saying the wrong things. If he didn't have this kind of personality, he would not be as strong as he is today. He is too confident.
