Guard With a Knife

"I've always been a point guard."

The Duke raised an eyebrow at the Black Mamba before he walked over to Lakers point guard Steve Blake.

The white guard joined the Lakers this summer. He is a steady and hardworking white traditional point guard. Although his breakthrough ability is lacking, he lacks strength and speed. But the big picture is good, he can hit the three-pointer, and he is also an extremely reliable passer. His passing is simple, direct and efficient.

During the Trail Blazers period, he averaged 10 points and 5 assists per game, which complemented the yellow Mamba Brandon Roy's partner, and once created a record of 14 assists in a single quarter.

When he joined the Lakers, he immediately formed a seamless connection with the tactical system. Although he did not become the actual starting point guard, he has surpassed Derek Fisher in playing time.

When the little Duke quickly ran to Blake, Blake immediately passed the basketball to Kobe Bryant who opened the singles on the strong side. The non-stick ball is also one of the reasons why the Black Mamba appreciates him.

Kobe Bryant got the basketball and immediately launched an offensive against Luol Deng. He used a series of dexterous tentative steps to deceive the defense, and immediately took off after getting a chance to make a shot... Bang!

The basketball missed, and the Black Mamba didn't feel very good tonight.

After Joakim Noah took off the rebound strongly, he quickly passed a long pass to Doug, and Doug took the ball and went down quickly, as fast as lightning. Blake was able to keep up with the pace at first, but when Doug rushed into the frontcourt three-point line to collect the ball and sprinted, he immediately fell into a disadvantage. In desperation, he quickly reached out to pull Doug. But after all, he was a beat too late, he couldn't hold Doug, he just stretched out his hand and pulled the little Duke's jersey...but he broke free just as he grabbed it.

After Snoopy took a step inside the free throw line, he jumped up vigorously and slammed his right hand hard at the basket. The black mamba, who was rushing from the side, immediately jumped up and ran straight to the basketball with rounded arms. Seeing that he was about to Finish the cover from the side. But in mid-air, Duge just straightened up slightly, turned his right hand to support it, and flicked lightly, and the basketball was thrown out of his palm... His wrist is very flexible now.

This low-handed layup made many Bulls fans in front of the TV burst into tears. They clearly saw the shadow of Scottie Pippen from Snoopy's layup.

Swish!

The basketball fell into the net.

The beautiful goal made Kobe Bryant's supplementary defense useless.

100:99, the Chicago Bulls are only 1 point behind.

"The referee missed an extra penalty," Charles Barkley emphasized in the slow-motion replay: "Steve had an obvious pull foul at the free throw line.

"

But it doesn't really matter anymore.

Earl Johnson was already there praising Snoopy for his soft low layup, and he was even more of a Mad Duke fan than Barkley tonight.

Because Snoopy brought him too many surprises tonight.

If Snoopy in the first ten games was just an enhanced version of last season, then tonight, the talent shown by Snoopy completely conquered his critical eyes. Resolute dunks and silky layups.

If this is a rookie's rookie season, the American media will definitely shout the arrival of the "son of the chosen one".

Still, even this is Snoopy's third season, and it's still exciting.

Because Snoopy blatantly took a completely different path, other superstars generally showed their talents before entering the NBA, and then slowly redeemed them over time.

Unlike Snoopy, the talent he showed at the beginning was obviously flawed.

But he overexchanged his limited talent. Become a superstar.

Now, entering his third season as a pro, he's bursting with top-notch talent in the NBA, though not quite yet. But the shock to commentators was unparalleled.

Because, before they were critical of Snoopy, all the arguments that his upper limit was not high were all shattered. Even, they have to place Snoopy in the ranks of unborn talents like 'LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Shaq O'Neal'.

The game is still going on.

Kobe Bryant came back to the half court and was still trying to shoot a jumper. He was the type of player who said, "If I miss 100 times, I will continue to throw the 101st time."

This kind of player has advantages and disadvantages. If he finds the touch, he can easily kill any opponent.

And if he has no touch and the opponent maintains a stable output, he can easily drag the home team into hell.

Tonight, it was clearly the second case.

After Snoopy returned to halftime, he used Jokinoah's pick-and-roll to cut straight into the penalty area, attracting Korver who double-teamed and passed the ball to ambush the bottom corner.

Korver raised the knife and made a precise three-pointer.

And this three-pointer also announced that the Bulls have started a quick counterattack mode.

Snoopy led the Bulls to strictly implement the tactics on Tom Thibodeau's tactical board, which even surprised Thibodeau: because Snoopy seamlessly embedded Rose's ddm system as the initiator.

Even when he has the ball, the team's offense is noticeably smoother. On the defensive end, he hasn't lost his position either: it has something to do with Blake's inability to do so.

Anyway.

After the Bulls left the field, the offense became exceptionally smooth. The Snoopy team seized the opportunity of Kobe Bryant's poor touch and continued to complete beheading defensive counterattacks. The point difference expanded to double digits when the countdown entered.

Phil Jackson blew the whistle and replaced the main force.

For the defending champions, they seem to have lost their active pursuit of the regular season.

At the end of the game, you can even see Lamar Odom smiling and saying hello to the aunts and sisters-in-law on the sidelines, and did not forget to hug Kim Kardashian twice to express her emotional intimacy.

beep!

The final whistle blows.

121:109!

The Bulls won the victory with the last wave of offensive.

The biggest significance of this game to Bulls fans is not even revenge, but that they see infinite possibilities from the young Duke. Snoopy's dunks at the beginning of the game showed his top talent, and his ability to drive the team forward as a point guard at the last moment proved his level at the 1st position.

"The first task of the Chicago Club is to find an offensive coach and let him create an open offensive system for Snoopy and Derrick Rose." Earl Johnson said seriously in the commentary: "We can't let Snoopy has been swinging in various positions. Although he is very versatile, but ... this is not the way to treat a superstar with super talent."

Earl Johnson is very candid.

Previously, he thought that there was no problem with Snoopy swinging in various positions as a "screw". However, as Snoopy's talent showed. Then...you must give him the ball.

How did Kevin Durant develop?

How did LeBron James develop?

It is completely fed by ball rights and shooting rights.

"Right now, the Bulls are facing troubles of happiness. Derrick Rose is the kind of player who can become a superstar at first glance, and he should be fully cultivated. Snoopy was already a top star in the league before, and now he shows What comes out is the potential of a historical superstar."

Kenny Smith said leisurely: "The potential needs to be carefully cultivated to be stimulated, but there is only one basketball on the court. What will they do?"

"Yeah." Charles Barkley agreed with Kenny Smith for the first time.

"I think the talents of these two players of the Bulls have already surpassed the Thunder three in the West. They may even surpass the duo of Dwyane Wade and LeBron James. Now...it depends on how the Chicagoans redeem their prizes!!"

While Charles Barkley said this, the Bulls fans in front of the TV were both happy and worried. The joy is that the upper limit of the team is getting higher and higher, but the worry is: if all the talents of the two are not exchanged, and unnecessary internal friction is caused instead, wouldn't it be that they enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed.
