Chapter 24 Battle Piston
At the end of the morning training, Noah stopped Gu Fei when he walked out of the training hall.
"Gu, today's table is really good, you are much stronger than Gordon."
"Hehe, you're not bad today, 21 rebounds, and you'll be the team's interior core in the future."
"Hey," Noah smiled a little shyly, and then said, "If I can be the core of the inside, then I hope you will be the leader of the team, and if you can be Jordan, I will try to be Pippen." ”
Looking at Noah's firm eyes, Gu Fei didn't know what to say, he didn't expect Noah to believe in himself so much, and he was willing to assist him.
"Thank you brother, I will work hard and together we will bring more championships to the team."
The two walked out of the arena together, maybe their words today will be the same as the prophecy, or the same sentence: Who will know the future?
On Nov. 9, the Bulls faced the incoming Pistons at home.
When it comes to the Pistons, fans of different ages may think differently, fans who have come from the Jordan era should think of the "Bad Boy Army", and fans as big as Gu Fei may think of the Pistons Five Tigers (or the new Bad Boy Army) to return to the top, and maybe add the "Auburn Hills Palace Incident".
This Auburn Hills palace incident can be said to be "famous" in the entire basketball world.
On November 19, 2004, the Pistons lost to the Indiana Pacers at home at Auburn Hills Palace, resulting in a violent clashes. Toward the end of the Pistons' game with the Walkers, Pistons player Ben Wallace was fouled by Ron Artest for a layup. Wallace then nudged Artest. Artest lay on the scoring table, waiting to be processed. At this time, the fans in the stands threw a water glass and hit Artest on the head. Artest then burst into the stands and beat up some fans. Another Pacers player, Jermaine O'Neal, also scuffled with fans who walked onto the court. A week later, five Pacers players and seven fans were punished in different ways, with Artest being suspended for the rest of the season.
This brawl incident is the largest, heaviest punishment, and worst group brawl incident in NBA history, so Gu Fei, one of the protagonists who caused this incident, has some expectations.
Before the game started, the players of both sides were warming up in their respective places, but this time the warm-up was a little different from the past.
Big Ben unexpectedly walked to the Pistons' area of activity, and the rest of the Bulls players took it for granted.
Seeing Big Ben walking towards them, the Pistons stopped what they were doing, and Rashid Wallace himself walked up and gave Big Ben a bear hug.
"Brother, how are you doing at Bull?"
"Very good, you know, I'm the defensive leader of the team, haha."
Rashid laughed along with Big Ben, and Big Ben greeted the Pistons one by one, greeting each other, until Big Ben left when Scott told him to go back and set up something.
"The Pistons are very strong, I don't ask you to win this game, but at least we should play at the level we should have, as we said before, we have to play the ball fast, the Pistons' defense is very good, but they are not fast, we must play on the defensive counterattack, don't fall down and play with them, you know?"
"Got it"
"Gordon, you're a starter, okay?"
"Good coach, I will definitely do well."
The referee urged the players of both teams to come on the field immediately, and the game began immediately.
"Gordon, the Bulls' original sixth man, and this year's nine rookies are in the starting lineup, Charles, what do you think?"
"What's there to discuss, isn't it just a change of formation? It's a daily occurrence in the NBA, okay? ”
This time, the competition sent out their comic ace combination, and the two faced each other again before the game even started.
"Mr. Flying Pig, you must know that your job is to explain, be careful that you will not have a salary to maintain your excess weight after I sue the boss."
"Alright Kenny, since you've begged me, I'll tell you about it." It seems that our Mr. Jazz not only has a big mouth, but also a thick face.
Kenny Smith just shook his head, looking like I didn't know you.
After a moment of pretended thought, Mr. Jazz spoke, "I think Scott wants the team's speed to increase and enhance the team's offensive power in sports battles, so he brought Gordon up, as for the rookie, it should be to improve the team's interior height, and Rashid is too familiar with Ben, Ben may not have a good effect on Rashid, plus this rookie's athleticism is also good, and the ability to run and jump also meets the requirements of speed." ”
Don't say it, although Barkley's big mouth has offended many people and made a lot of trouble for himself, he is still very professional as a former superstar in the NBA and a current commentator, at least this time he accurately saw Scott's intentions.
After listening to Barkley's words, Smith didn't go against it this time, and it seems that the Rockets' meritorious guard also understands the reason.
At the same time as the whistle blew, the referee threw the ball in his hand into the air, and Noah and Rashid swooped upwards as if there were springs under their feet.
In the end, Noah won the opening opening attack for the Bulls with a narrow margin of half a palm.
There are two flowers, one on each branch. Let's take a look at Gu Fei who is still sitting on the sidelines.
Gu Fei is a little complicated now, just now Gordon glanced at him before he came on the court, like a demonstration, Gu Fei originally thought that his appearance yesterday should have left a good impression on the coach, at least the coach should not think that I am weaker than Gordon, why did I put Gordon in the starting line today.
"Gu, what you lack now is game experience, this thing is not something that you will be able to have for a while, now you have to see more how Gordon plays, your defense is not good, so you learn how Gordon helps the team with offense, you will be the team's sixth man today, there will be a lot of playing time, and then the team needs your firepower to maintain the second facelift."
After listening to Scott's words, Gu Fei understood, "The coach thinks that he still lacks experience, and he will put himself in the position of the sixth man to learn the game, it seems that the coach still values himself very much, and now he should be protecting me."
In the same situation, Gu Fei's mood is beautiful, he knows that the sixth man of a team has a lot of playing time, and he has a lot of starters, and he is the offensive core of the second team and has a lot of shooting rights.
Now that he has figured out why this is the case, Gu Fei can watch the game with peace of mind, in fact, the reason why Scott explained it was because Gu Fei was a little absent-minded.
The score is now 18-10, and after 8 minutes of the first quarter, the Bulls are 8 points behind, and Scott's tactics have not played a big role.
Then Scott called a timeout, replacing Gordon, Luol Deng and Noah, and replacing Gu Fei, Big Ben and Griffin.
The Pistons also made changes accordingly, with Rashid, Chauncey "Flounder" Chauncey and mid-pitcher Hamilton also replaced......
Gu Fei once again stepped on this floor full of honor.
