This summer, the Bulls cleaned up Hinrich, who overlapped with Derrick Rose and had a similar function, and Rose finally got the opportunity to fully take charge of the team's backcourt role. For a rising point guard hopeful, it has always been important to be able to completely dominate a team, and if you look at the history of Chris Paul and Deron Williams, it is foreseeable that this will be a season in which Rose will be in a state blowout. Dare to turn down LeBron James this summer, and Rose is ready to lead the Bulls to a big game.

Last season, Rose's performance was like a roller coaster, making people worry about whether this unborn genius point guard will also go through a "wall period". Unexpectedly, at the end of the season, Rose not only performed better, but also practiced defensive kung fu by the way, which was impressive. Last season, Rose averaged 20.8 points and 6 assists per game, and his shooting average and shooting percentage per game increased, and the leadership trend became more and more obvious. In addition, similar to his predecessor Hinrich, Rose has also taken care of defense while attacking frantically, and has achieved good results.

The American media has always liked to compare Ross, Westbrook and Wu Huang, but to their regret, Wu Huang's statistics and team record are obviously much higher than these two. This summer, Wu Huang declined the invitation of the Dream Team, which once caused dissatisfaction among many American fans. It is no secret that he practiced hard in the summer, but for his own selfish interests and disregard for the honor of the country, this is a proof of a traitor in the eyes of many American fans.

Coach K really wants to recruit Wu Huang into the team and entrust him with a big responsibility, Wu Huang's technical style is more suitable for the national arena than Ross and Wei Shao, but he can't find the best one, this dream team can only retreat to the second, after recruiting the veteran Billups, and introduced the young Rose, Westbrook and Curry, which is preparing for the future.

Rose followed the U.S. men's basketball team to participate in the World Championships in Turkey, this time as the main point guard of the dream team, Rose's performance was very eye-catching, and Wei Shao also played his own style at the World Championships, so after the U.S. team won the championship, the American media agreed that Wu Huang has little advantage over these two, especially after a series of reinforcements for the Bulls this summer, Rose has the strength to defeat Wu Huang.

"It's good if you're happy, I'm really good, so don't expect too much from me, I might not get a double-digit score at any time." Wu Huang dismissed this argument at the pre-match press conference, and he has always been annoyed that the American media disgusted him when he was fine.

Are Rose and Westbrook strong? Wu Huang has never thought so, and the two men failed to score in double figures in at least ten games each last season, but this has not happened in his entire career, and those two men are a year or two older than him and entered the NBA a year earlier, but the media will take advantage of his mediocre games to make a big fuss when they have the chance.

Many Chinese fans are always upset about Wu Huang, who was a little shrunken in the second round of the playoffs last season compared to the first round, but even so, he was better than Westbrook's statistics in the first round, and the result was that the whole United States was gloating about him and satirizing his poor performance...... Even Wu Huang almost thought that he was really a superstar like James and Kobe, and if he couldn't get 20+5+5, he would be sprayed with blood.

In this game, the American media all want to see Rose lead the Bulls to beat the Knicks, Carlos Boozer is not as famous as Xiaosi, but he may not lose to the other party in actual combat, Boozer is also a real All-Star player who can guarantee 20+10 in the playoffs in recent years, and his defense is a little better than Xiaosi.

The Knicks are basically at home today, and Hong Kong fans also regard the Knicks as their home team, even if the Bulls were the favorite team of Hong Kong people back then, because Wu Huang's grandfather had been in Hong Kong for a long time, and they even felt that Wu Huang was closer to Hong Kong.

This is pure wishful thinking on their part, but it is a good thing that the Knicks get home treatment today, Wu Huang thinks that his team should not have a problem to kill the Bulls, and there is no reason why this team can wrestle with them with one more Boozer.

But he's missing someone, and the Bulls got not just Boozer this summer, but coaches who are more important to a team.

Thibodeau brought his defensive system to the Bulls, and the Bulls just got Boozer, Brewer and Korver who were trained by Sloan this summer, and the defense of Rohrdden and Gibson was also greatly underestimated, plus Rose and Noah, whose defensive ability has improved greatly, the overall strength of the Bulls is completely different from last season.

D'Antoni is obviously underprepared, and the Knicks seem to have made up for their shortcomings this summer, but their real flaw is the interior defense, which has not improved much, they have just made their interior offensive ability stronger, this is D'Antoni's philosophy, offense is always more important than defense.

Knicks starters today: Wu Huang, Tony Allen, Iguodala, Gallinari, Stoudemire.

D'Antoni didn't just think about it, he really sent such a lineup today that was all offensive and undefended on the inside. In this way, the result can be imagined, the Knicks' interior line has become a no-man's land on the defensive end, and the offensive end of Xiaosi is extremely passive under Noah's mad dog-style defense, and the Knicks were beaten 8:0 as soon as they came up.

Thibodeau got the team serious in the preseason, which made the Knicks unable to cope, especially the Bulls' defense of Smalls was very successful, as long as he received the basketball from mid-range, the Bulls' perimeter players would try to wrap him up when he started.

Smalls will pass the ball when he receives the ball, but he has a habit that as long as he controls the ball, it will be 99.9% not passed again, which is a habit that Stoudemire cannot improve again, and the Bulls take advantage of his habit, and the wingers can wrap him up at any time, and the effect is very good.

In the first half of the first quarter, Wu Huang's heart was dark again, and when he saw that the Bulls were clearly prepared, he passed the ball to Xiao Si at every opportunity, which seemed to be letting Xiao Si hold the ball to break the Bulls' defense, but the result was that Xiao Si played a 4-shot 0 in the opening game and completely fell into the defensive trap prepared for him by the Bulls.

It wasn't until D'Antoni couldn't bear this situation anymore and asked for a timeout, and Wu Huang began to play outside according to the coach's arrangement.

Wu Huang is too bad, in the past, he liked to make his own decisions, and often gave orders to his teammates without D'Antoni's orders, but this time his reaction was much slower. However, he did this kind of thing very secretly, and even D'Antoni only thought it was strange, and it was impossible to think that Emperor Wu was playing this kind of trick.

Even if you lose this kind of preseason, it doesn't matter, although his methods are not glorious, but he is too bright and upright, and he can only suffer in the end.

Wu Huang returned to the game with his thoughts, with D'Antoni temporarily replacing Gallinari and O'Neal on again.

He enjoyed playing pick-and-rolls with O'Neal, the fat man's ass was too big, and the quality of the cover was the best player he'd ever seen. Xiao Si always gives him a cover that stops on point, and he can't wait to cut into the basket as soon as he finishes the action, or pull down the wings and other opportunities to shoot, and often can't block people for him.

O'Neal is different, the ****** of the fat shark can block the players who defend Wu Huang strongly, and the blocking and dismantling cooperation of the two can easily cause a misplaced defensive situation, many times Wu Huang can directly get the opportunity to dribble into the hinterland with the help of a cover, or shoot directly.

This is the case with the pick-and-roll, Rose has never been able to defend the pick-and-roll, and was directly bounced off by O'Neal's ******.

Wu Huang easily dribbled the ball into the inside, Noah's footsteps were already fast, but Wu Huang's speed was faster, and he rushed to the restricted area in a few strides to jump up to complete a hand-to-hand layup, and when the basketball hit the rebound, Gibson's weak-side help defense was late.

Xiao Si's previous performance has caused many Knicks fans to complain, so at this moment, Wu Huang's score is particularly critical in their minds, and many people have the idea of "still watching Hugo", which is Wu Huang's purpose.

However, he didn't expect that the Bulls' defense was surprisingly good, especially after Boozer went off, Wu Huang even felt that his old teammate Gibson was more suitable for the Bulls' defensive system than Boozer.

Thibodeau's defensive hierarchy is excellent, even if the three outside lines are broken through, they will not easily lose their positions, and their chasing and secondary defense capabilities are very strong, so they need to be filled in time by interior players, he knows that the captain of this college has excellent mobility on the defensive end, although he is a little shorter, but his arm span can completely make up for the lack of height, so he is more suitable for the Bulls' system than Boozer.

D'Antoni didn't set up much of the game in the first quarter, and although Wu Huang and O'Neal's blocking and pick-and-roll worked, after the Bulls strengthened his help defense, Wu Huang could only shoot near the free throw line more often, and went deep into the basket and was easily stopped by Noah and Gibson.

"This kid's defensive ability has improved so much?" After Wu Huang broke through, if it was a heads-up with Noah or Gibson, he was still sure of it, but Rose's chasing ability was much better than last season, and in the first quarter when Wu Huang was not prepared, he was chased by Rose from behind at the beginning, and this block made him lose a lot of face.

The score was 18:25, the Knicks were suppressed by the Bulls to score within 20 points in the first quarter, and the Bulls' offense did not improve much, but Thibodeau's transformation of the Bulls' defense was impressive.

"Can't play like this!" Wu Huang knew why his team was suppressed, in the first half of the first quarter, Xiao Si attacked alone, and in the second half, he kept blocking and dismantling, and they were not connected inside and outside, and they couldn't play the real attack power of the two All-Stars.

In the second quarter, the Knicks were much more serious, they didn't expect the Bulls to be so serious before the game, this was just a preseason game, but looking at the momentum of the Bulls, it was obviously playing as a regular season.

Thibodeau also has no way, his defensive system needs a lot of actual combat drills to improve the team's execution and tacit understanding, and the more outstanding the opponent's offensive power, the more they can exercise their defensive tacit understanding, the Knicks This offensive team is the best whetstone for the Bulls, and he wishes that the New Yorkers will release all their firepower today, so as to test the results of their training for more than a month.

The Knicks' bench strength has improved significantly compared to last season, the second echelon: Alstom, Tony Allen, Danny Green, Ronnie Turiaf, Greg Monroe, these five are currently the team's main rotation lineup, more than defense, and at the same time have a certain amount of offensive power, even if compared with the starters of the weak team, it is not without the power of a fight, if you add one or two main mixes, it is really similar to the starters of some fish belly teams.

Thibodeau watched his team's bench lose a full 10 points in the first half of the game, and could only sigh that there is still a long way to go to build a strong team, but there is no way to solve the problem of the rotation lineup is not as good as the opponent, and increasing the playing time of the main team is the best way, but it is not necessary to do this in the preseason.

Wu Huang and Xiao Si were substituted midway through the second quarter, and the team had already taken a three-point lead, but Monroe was dumb again under Asik's defense. The Knicks' No. 6 pick did not meet people's expectations in the preseason, and he couldn't beat Hayes against the Rockets before, and now he can't handle the little-known Asik, so it seems a bit watery!

After the Knicks' starters returned to the court, Wu Huang consciously strengthened his cooperation with Xiao Si, but under the defense of the Bulls, the two made a lot of mistakes.

In fact, this kind of game is also good for the Knicks, in the last game they complained that the opponent was too weak to have the effect of training, and now they meet the Bulls with strong defense, which is just the right time for them to hone their offense.

In the first game against the Rockets, Yao Ming's movement was too slow, Hayes was too short, and Hill was too inexperienced, so Wu Huang and Xiao Si played well together, and today encountered the Bulls' excellent interior defense, and the shortcomings of the tacit understanding between the two were exposed, especially Xiao Si's lack of ability to respond after breaking through with the ball is a thorny problem.

However, there are two sides to everything, and the Bulls also find that they often get into foul trouble in the face of Xiao Si and Wu Huang's pick-and-roll, as long as the two don't make mistakes in passing, even if they successfully wrap up Stoudemire, it will be difficult to block the opponent's layup in the end.

After receiving the ball, Xiao Si is too lethal to the penalty area, and he can also jump and impact the basket in the face of a double defense, causing the defender to foul.

Wu Huang is more difficult, if you don't pay attention, you may be deceived by his passing feints, this guy is not like Xiao Si can't pass the ball, as long as he is given enough space, he has so many options that he can barely defend. But to use two people to defend him, Xiao Si can't control it again, and at the same time, the outside line will also be exposed.

In the first half, the two teams finally played 45:46, and the Knicks looked dominant, but Wu Huang and Xiao Si made too many mistakes in coordination, and they fell behind the Bulls in points.

The Knicks had a full 13 turnovers in the first half, which was obviously too high, while the Bulls were just 2-of-9 three-pointers, didn't shoot many three-pointers, and didn't have much shooting, and both teams found some problems with each other.

In the second half, the Bulls promoted Korver to the starter, which was Thibodeau's solution to the lack of outside three-point shooting, but the effect was not good, although Korver's defense was honed in the Jazz, but it was still not excellent defensively, at most he learned to use his height to defend, but lateral movement and foot movement were not enough to defend Iguodala and Gallinari.

D'Antoni gave up the inside combination of Gallinari + Xiaosi, this kind of interior defense is so bad that he can't bear it, and this naïve idea has been completely abandoned by him.

The Knicks switched to another starting lineup in the second half: Wu Huang, Iguodala, Gallinari, Ronnie Turiaf, and Stoudemire.

D'Antoni feels that although his team has many interior lines, they are all very flawed, O'Neal is too old, Monroe is too young, Evans is too short, and Turiaf and Collins are too mediocre, and almost none of them can satisfy him.

Ronny Turiaf is a very active player, but his talent is really limited, about 205cm tall, his athleticism can only be described as mediocre, his arm span is not good, and his strength is good, but the price he paid is that his movement speed has slowed down.

Carlos beat Turyaf as soon as he came up in the second half, and the physical fitness of the anti-bone boy was almost better than Turyaf in more aspects, and he didn't know how much stronger he was technically, if the Knicks didn't wrap up, Boozer alone could cut forty points on Turyaf.

D'Antoni quickly replaced Turiaf with Collins, who had a set of defensive Howard, and the Knicks signed him to deal with the Monsters. However, Collins may be able to resist Howard, but it is not very smart in the face of other interior lines, and Xiaosi does not defend Boozer, and the result is that Collins is still beaten by the anti-bone boy!

Wu Huang began to go head-to-head with Rose in the second half, and the league's defensive evaluation of Rose last season was: slow lateral movement, inaccurate defensive judgment and timing, easy to eat feints and fouls, and especially poor anti-blocking and dismantling ability!

Rose should not have been idle this summer, and his defense looks a lot better, but after Wu Huang played in the first half, he found that this guy is good at second pursuit, but he is still not good in other aspects, at most the average level of the league.

The Bulls didn't wrap up on Wu Huang on the line today, they generally let Rose go to single defense, Wu Huang also knew that a star like Rose would definitely not be able to pull his face in the regular season, and let his teammates help him wrap the opposite player, and the star and the star are generally one-on-one, of course, the playoffs may be exceptional.

Rose soon found it difficult to judge whether Wu Huang's movements were true or false, as long as his center of gravity was slightly unstable, Wu Huang's first step could easily throw him away, Rose could feel that this Chinese was almost the same as his own breakthrough speed, he was not so fast last season!

Wu Huang played eight minutes in the third quarter, scored 10 points in a single quarter, and increased his statistics to 18 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting 6 of 11, leading Rose in terms of personal data and shooting percentage.

Rose's mentality has been unstable since this session, although he is a player with a steady mentality, but his competitive spirit is also strong, today he played about the same time as Wu Huang, but only got 12 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, and the shooting rate was only 5 of 13 shots, both personal data and shooting rate were inferior to Wu Huang, which made it difficult for Rose to stay calm all the time.

The Bulls played well today, and Thibodeau was happy with his players' performance in the first three quarters, but he didn't expect the final quarter to be a problem with Rose.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, Wu Huang and Rose played almost at the same time, and the Bulls were 2 points behind at this time.

Rose naturally wanted to fight back on the offensive end, but Wu Huang's defensive ability was obviously more than a step higher than him, and Rose was used to using his explosive power to break through, and in the face of Wu Huang, whose athleticism was not inferior to his own, such a breakthrough was easy to fall into the front and back attack.

Wu Huang continued to use his teammates' help to defend Rose, which may allow the opponent to play a wonderful goal in a certain round, but the offensive efficiency will definitely decline, and no matter how wonderful the goal is, it will not be able to score 4 points.

Thibodeau suffered from the biggest headache of any NBA coach at this time, that is, the core players were bent on going head-to-head with their opponents, but they couldn't pick others.

Although Rose's personal data has increased rapidly in consecutive singles, the Knicks' lead is also increasing, and Wu Huang's personal data has not stood still, and in the heads-up between the two, it is still Wu Huang who has the advantage.

With 2 minutes and 15 seconds in the fourth quarter and a score of 88:79, the Knicks unknowingly had a nine-point lead.

Rose's cerebral congestion is still continuing, and it is impossible for him to calm down suddenly, but the more unfavorable the situation is for him, the hotter his head will be, unless the coach replaces him, but Thibodeau can't do this, and replacing Rose at this time is prone to more serious incidents of discord between the generals.

"I didn't lose, I can turn defeat into victory." At this time, Rose will definitely think like this in his head, once Thibodeau replaces him, Rose will throw the responsibility for losing this game and heads-up on the coach, and he will not think that he is worse than Wu Huang.

Wu Huang was naturally awake at this time, and when Xiao Si received his score and used a two-handed slam dunk to pull the difference to 11 points, the game completely lost its suspense.

Rose's second-half performance disappointed American journalists, and this battle not only did not make Wu Huang lose face, but made him more beautiful.

In the final quarter, in the head-to-head duel between the two, Wu Huang defeated Rose by an overwhelming margin, unlike Rose, who still relied on physical talent, Wu Huang perfectly integrated his athleticism and technique as soon as he entered the league, especially in the defensive end, he was obviously superior to Rose.

The final score was 96:86, and although the Knicks scored less than 100, they still won this fierce preseason game.

Wu Huang played 28 minutes today, scoring 25 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, shooting 9-of-15 from the field and 4-of-7 from three-point range.

Rose played 29 minutes and had 22 points, five rebounds and four assists on 6-of-18 shooting from the field and 2-of-6 from three-point range.

The comparison of the core data of the two teams is clear at a glance, Wu Huang is ahead of Rose in all aspects, and the Asian media has always called him "the leader of young players", which is not an exaggeration, even if it is Durant, who entered the league two years earlier than him, his performance at this time is on par with Wu Huang, and if you look for it further, it is not the younger generation, and you can't compare Paul with Wu Huang as a young player, right?
