Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Away Battle in Chicago

Chicago, USA, over the United Center arena, six NBA championship flags are held high, this is the glory of the city of Chicago, and the person who created this glory is named Michael Jordan!

"The god of basketball has created the glory of the Chicago Bulls in the annals of history, and now, the current players of the Chicago Bulls will do their best for this former honor!"

In the arena of the United Center, the commentator introduced the glorious record of Michael Jordan's time as he shifted the conversation to this season: "However, the current Bulls definitely haven't done that very well. โ€

"The Chicago Bulls had just tasted three straight defeats in Indiana before today's game, and they won't let their visiting opponents taste anything good when they return home."

"But the team that came to Chicago today has been very strong lately." Another commentator also gushed: "The Orlando Magic, who just won three in a row at home, will never want their winning streak to end at the hands of a losing team!" โ€

"Yes, so in today's game, both teams will give it their all, it's an absolutely exciting battle!"

Two commentators on the sidelines added attention to the game, and on the other side, ESPN also sent reporters to the home team to interview the Bulls players while the players were still warming up before the game.

And this is the biggest addition of the Chicago Bulls in the free agent market this year, the Most Valuable Player of the 06 Finals who played for the Miami Heat and helped the Heat win three championships - Dwyane Wade!

"Hey, Dwyan, you're in good shape today."

ESPN's courtside reporter walked slowly to Wade, who was shooting training, and saw the Flash's consecutive mid-range shots hitting one after another, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that you are running for 30+ today?" โ€

"Oh, of course, I think every NBA player is going to fight for scoring as long as they get on the court."

Seeing that a reporter interviewed him, Wade also temporarily stopped shooting training, and then had the opportunity to rest for a while and be interviewed by the way.

"That's right, but Dwyan, there's a lot of controversy about the team right now." Wade didn't seem to be in a bad mood, and the reporter quickly got the topic into the conversation: "The Bulls signed you and Rajon Rondo this summer, and you also won three straight games at the start of the season, which proved the strength of the team. โ€

"But since you left Brooklyn and haven't won so far, we're all wondering what happened during that time that caused the Bulls to suffer so much?"

"What happened? No, no, no, nothing happened. The reporter's words were very guided, but Wade had not seen any problems, and a few words would solve the problem that could cause big news: "We just haven't adjusted to the best, and the team is a little lax after a winning streak." โ€

"Also, Rajan and I just joined the team this summer, and we didn't have enough time to settle in with Jimmy, and some turmoil was expected by everyone on the team." Wade said, and pointed to Jimmy Butler, another Bulls arrowhead figure behind him who was seriously warming up: "Look at Jimmy's state, today we will let the losing streak end, and all problems will be solved." โ€

"All we need is time."

Wade is full of confidence in the team, even though they have lost three in a row, but with him and Rajon Rondo, plus Jimmy Butler, an All-Star who was already with the Bulls, the Flash feels that as long as they are given enough time to run, they will definitely make a difference in the East.

The same rhetoric was repeated on the bench of their opponents today, with Frank Vogel instilling his winning philosophy in his players during the pre-match warm-up.

"Guys, look up and see what's hanging over this arena!" While urging the players to warm up, Coach Vogel pointed to the six championship flags over the United Center arena, and just wanted to continue, but another person spoke first.

"That's their honor!" On the edge of the court, Wu Rui, who had been stretching, continued: "There is no Michael Jordan in Chicago now, and there is no Scottie Pippen, they are a team that has lost three in a row, and their losing streak will continue today. โ€

Wu Rui said, looking up at Vogel: "Coach, you have already said this passage three times, and I will memorize it." โ€

"Hahaha, Michael has a good back!"

Wu Rui's words also made the warm-up Magic players on the side laugh from ear to ear, and Biyongbo even joked: "Although there is no Michael Jordan in Chicago today, there is another Michael on this court!" โ€

"That's right, Michael Wu!"

After saying this, Bi Yongbo whistled at Wu Rui with great interest, and it could be seen that Orlando was very relaxed when he came to Chicago with three consecutive wins.

Indeed, the opposite side has lost three times in a row, and he has won three times in a row, not to mention the difference in strength between the two, even the gap in recent state is also very different.

"Coach, what do you seem to be worried about?"

After stretching, Wu Rui, who was resting on the bench, was keenly aware of Coach Vogel's serious expression and couldn't help asking.

"Michael, I think you can learn a lot of useful things today." Wu Rui's question, Coach Vogel did not answer directly, but sighed helplessly.

How many useful things can I learn?

Hearing Coach Vogel's sighing words, Wu Rui was a little confused, in some previous games, he did learn a lot under the guidance of Coach Vogel, intentionally or unintentionally, but what can he learn in today's game?

As Wu Rui thought about it, the game between the Chicago Bulls and the Orlando Magic was about to begin, and the starters of both sides appeared in turn.

On the Magic side, there is no change, it is still Payton Jr. and Fournier who partner in the backcourt, Gordon and Ibaka form a frontline, and Vucevic guards the basket.

On the other hand, the Bulls' side is also the starting line-up, with Rajon Rondo, who signed strongly in the summer, playing side by side with Flash Wade, followed by Jimmy Butler, and two big players on the inside, Robin Lopez and Ty Gibson, walked onto the court one after the other.

Then, Lopes and Vucevic stood in the center circle, and after the referee signaled to both sides, he threw the ball high and the game officially began!

The ball was taken by Lรณpez, Rajon Rondo firmly controlled the ball, this championship-level point guard, has a very good control over the team's rhythm, and when everyone in the team has reached the position of tactical arrangement, Rondo started decisively!
