Yang Yi, a well-known basketball commentator, once told a joke that there are three teams in the NBA that are household names in China, even the janitor and the grocery shopping aunt. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After Yao Ming entered the NBA and joined the Rockets, the Rockets were of course counted as one.

What are the other two?

According to the aunts and uncles, one is the "Red Bull Team" and the other is the "Yellow Team", as for which city it is in and which stars it has, it is not very clear.

Only the Houston Rockets, uncles and aunts will know that the city is Houston, and the team name is also correct.

Of course, the "Red Bulls" do not exist, in fact, they are talking about the Bulls in a red jersey, because of the influence of the "Flyer" Jordan, they have a high reputation all over the world, and the uncles and aunts know it, and it is reasonable.

And the "Yellow People" refers to the Lakers, the yellow jersey! This is due to the three consecutive championships of the OK combination, O'Neal's domineering and Kobe's elegantness, which are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Of course, in this life, because of Lu Xiaofeng's influence, there may be no uncle and aunt who call the Lakers "Yellow Team" anymore.

Originally, in the minds of the Chinese people, the NBA was a three-legged stand, but now it has become the "two dragons grabbing the pearl" of the Rockets and the Lakers, and other teams, whether it is the Mavericks where Wang Zhizhi once played, or the Spurs who followed Battle to win the championship, can only stand aside.

As for the bulls who used to be outstanding, they are all old yellow calendars, and perhaps only the old fans who once chased the "Flyer" still miss the red.

Since the old flyer retired in 1998 with the second triple championship, the trees have fallen and scattered, and the heroes of the dynasty have retreated and walked, and the Bulls have fallen from the peak to the trough, flourishing and declining, which can be described as "the down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken", and has completely become the belly of the NBA.

In the six seasons that began in the '98-'99 season, the Bulls finished first in the East with five finishes, but only got the '99 No. 1 pick, which was lucky.

The only year that did not take the first place in the East coincided with the draft year of 2003, when the Bulls, who were at the bottom every year, let the Cavaliers grab the position of vice president, and failed to complete the counterattack in the draft draw, and finally got a No. 7 pick, missing James, Wade, Anthony, and Bosh.

On the whole, the Bulls' draft vision is actually okay, although they don't have the ability to find treasures in the second round, those who were selected in the first round are still reasonable, and the "parallel import rate" is very low.

In 1999, Brand and Artest were drafted, both future star players.

2000 was a small year for the draft, and the Bulls drafted Fetzer with the No. 4 pick, although he did not become a star, he also worked in the league for many years, and scored double-doubles in consecutive seasons.

In 2001, he drafted "Little Shark" Curry with the No. 4 pick, which is also reasonable, after all, Curry still has a hand on the offensive end.

In 2002, Jay Williams, a Duke-honored student and All-American player of the year, was selected, and that doesn't have to be said.

2003 was a recognized draft year, and while the Bulls missed out on short forward David West, the No. 7 pick for Hinrich was understandable for the Bulls who lacked playmaking guards.

In 2004, he drafted Ben Gordon with the No. 3 pick and Rohr Deng with the No. 7 pick from the Suns, both of whom are talented potential newcomers.

Of course, I missed Lu Xiaofeng, but I can't blame them.

However, Brand, the champion who played 20+10 data for two consecutive seasons as soon as he entered the NBA, could not be retained, and traded him to the Clippers in 2001, but only exchanged for the year's top star Tyson Chandler.

In fact, Chandler is also a good player, a very good basket protector, but he is not reused in the Bulls and often plays off the bench.

Jay Williams was undoubtedly a talented point guard, but he only played one season before dying in a car accident, so in 2003, they drafted another excellent point guard, Hinrich.

In 2002, they traded Artest as a defensive stalwart, plus the team's scoring champion Ron Mercer, and potential interior Brad Miller from the Pacers for Jalen Rose.

The idea is good, Jalen Rose just played the best season of his career, the data is 20+5+6, and the Bulls want to use a bunch of iron rods for a titanium alloy spear.

But who would have thought that Jalen Rose only played a highlight season with the Bulls before he was reduced to mediocrity, and the Bulls had to admit defeat and replace him.

I don't know if the Bulls dynasty lost all their character in those years, the Bulls in the post-Jordan era not only had bad luck, but also died by themselves, even if they changed one coach after another, the performance still did not improve.

Since the start of the season, they have not won a single game and have lost seven in a row.

After playing the Lakers tonight, they will go to Phoenix tomorrow night to challenge the Suns, and if nothing else, their losing streak will continue.

Looking at the current lineup of the Bulls, Lu Xiaofeng really doesn't know what to say.

Their two interior players are Eddie Curry and Tyson Chandler, one on offense and one on defense, and former star Antonio Davis on the bench.

The starting small forward is Lu Xiaofeng's old acquaintance, Argentine Nocioni, and the substitute is Luo Erde.

The starting shooting guard was veteran Piakowski, a white shooter with a three-point accuracy, and Ben Gordon was off the bench.

The starting point guard is, of course, Hinrich, and below him sits potential newcomer Chris Duhon.

"What a extravagance! It's a Nova concentration camp! ”

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but complain.

The Bulls have so many good players, but they have a seven-win and zero-loss record.

However, the problem with the bulls is also obvious, in addition to being too young, that is, there is no real leader, an undisputed, convincing leader.

Eddie Curry is the team's scoring champion, but he only averages more than a dozen points per game, and the defensive end often drags the team back, can't control his weight, and his attendance is not high.

The Bulls management wanted to support Hinrich as the boss, but he was only in his second season, and he did not have the dazzling performance of James and Anthony, and his prestige was obviously lacking.

Ben Gordon and Luo Erdeng are still newcomers, and the matter of the team boss can only be thought about in my heart.

Therefore, the players of the Bulls, individually, are full of talent and envy, but when they form a team, they are a mess of sand and have little combat effectiveness.

This is also a common problem for young teams.

What Lu Xiaofeng didn't know was that in the original history, this season, Hinrich successfully became the boss of the team, and finally led the team to a 47-35 record and entered the playoffs with the fourth place in the East.

If it weren't for the Suns' record being too dazzling, I'm afraid Bulls coach Skels would be the coach of the year.

And now the bull is seeking a victory but can't, who would have thought?

Needless to say, for this game, the Lakers will certainly be full of confidence.

Perhaps as rookies in the same class, Ben Gordon and Luo Erdeng, who were sitting on the Bulls bench, both regarded Lu Xiaofeng as their biggest opponents, and they were probably holding back!

But Lu Xiaofeng didn't take them seriously, and even the media didn't have the heart to hype.

It was Chandler, who danced with Mime, who attracted Lu Xiaofeng's attention.

This arm span, this jump, such a good physical talent, how good would it be if it were in the Lakers?

Think about it, after Chandler arrived at the Hornets, he cooperated with Paul's air connections, which is really eye-catching!
