Super Lord of the Rings

PS. Here’s today’s update, and by the way, let’s vote for the "Starting Point" 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 tickets. Voting will also give you starting point coins. I beg everyone to support and appreciate it!

Oden directly contacted the Bulls' medical team, and the attending team doctor Brian Cole is a well-known local expert in Chicago.

After learning about Auden's situation, Brian thought over and over again, and the only suggestion was to put insoles. Oden may release exclusive sneakers in the future, but we can't let Nike design one taller and one shorter?

If the management does not announce this matter to the public, Oden's image will not be affected. It's just that when he is arranged to play in the new season, Skiles must be careful not to make him too tired.

With Chandler, David Lee and others sharing playing time, Oden must not be tired.

Skiles didn't want to give him too much possession at all, and it will take a while to observe. He must be used as a blue-collar in the early stage.

On September 28, the Bulls held a media day, and the players came together.

When taking promotional photos, it can be seen that the Bulls management attaches great importance to Oden. The core four people take pictures are Oden, Chandler, Lewis and Wang Jun.

The four laughed very happily, the three were happy for winning the championship before, and Oden was because he was able to join the Bulls. The Bulls are still the biggest favorite to win the championship this season, and he may get a ring just after entering the league.

The players were all interviewed by reporters.

The reporter asked about Wang Jun's vacation. Known as a training maniac, he stayed away from basketball for two months. Some people worried that he could not guarantee his state.

"Don't worry, I am in good health. Although I haven't played much, my physical fitness has reached a new level in all aspects. I have also practiced with LeBron and the others for two weeks. Everyone has improved in the masters. Compared with myself Practicing alone is effective."

The reporter asked: "Are you confident to defend your title again in the new season?"

"Of course, all the players in our team are very talented. We have only one goal in the new season, which is to win the third championship and build a dynasty."

Wang Jun also commented on several new aids, mainly praising Hill, thinking that Hill will help the team a lot.

Oden is a talented player who still needs to work out.

Calderon Wang Jun is also more optimistic. The two have fought many times in both the NBA and the international arena. This kind of stable guard is hard to find.

The reporter interviewed Lewis and asked: "In the summer, you gave up the maximum salary offered by the Magic to stay with the team. Did you win the championship?"

"Yeah, I'm having fun with the Bulls, I'm playing well with my teammates. I've talked to the manager. I want to stay. Although the max salary is good, I'd rather be on a super team. It must be wonderful to retire."

Lewis is very smart. He doesn't want to be traded out after staying in the team, so he shows his loyalty first.

When he gets old and cuts his salary to renew his contract, if he gets a few more rings, he might be able to retire his jersey.

Oden is also the focus of the media day, as a rookie performance is very humble.

The reporter asked: "What height do you expect yourself to reach in the future?"

Oden said: "I have just entered the league. There are many things to learn. I will work hard to integrate into the team. Help the team."

The No. 1 pick is low-key to such an extent that there is no news to dig. If Oden said a few more words, the media might hype him competing with Chandler. Looking at it now, he is likely to start as a role player.

The next day was a public training session, Oden was assigned to the bench side, the newly joined veteran Hill replaced Luol Deng at small forward, and Duhon became the point guard.

Barnes tried his best to defend Wang Jun, but the effect was mediocre. Wang Jun showed his progress to the people. After the pick-and-roll, he broke through and dunked many times, and he abused David Lee and Oden.

Oden has seen the level of NBA stars, and he defended well in the NCAA. It doesn't mean he can dominate in the NBA. He doesn't have many ways to deal with Wang Jun's level of outside line, and he lacks defensive experience.

On the offensive end, Oden played fairly eye-catching, showing off his hooks on both sides, and also had two air cut dunks after the pick-and-roll. On the defensive end, he has no problem defending alone, but the opponent is Chandler, and ordinary blue-collars can also defend.

There is no contract. Players who signed preseason agreements with the Bulls showed up one after another and performed hard, but none of them were particularly brilliant.

Calderon was the only point guard who played well. His organization was very stable, he passed the ball at close range, waited for an opportunity on the outside, and scored two three-pointers.

On the defensive end, Calderon is not useless. He is not afraid of misplacement, and his body is not inferior to Kidd, but he is not good at defending against speed guards, and he is easy to be passed by.

Hill does not attack with the ball, but runs without the ball. He has a high percentage of mid-range shots. On the defensive end, his height and wingspan can interfere with shooting. It is not a weakness, and it perfectly replaces Luol Deng's position.

After the public training, the fans are relieved that the Bulls have not weakened.

After a few days of training, the coaching staff decided to let Oden play and Chandler come off the bench, so as to better build self-confidence.

Oden's defensive awareness is outstanding in college, but it is still not as good as Chandler, who made the All-Defensive Team.

Oden, like many young players, likes jumping too much. When he sees his opponent rushing in, his first thought is to block the shot instead of raising his arms to interfere.

"Champion" defends better, and in the second quarter, partnering with David Lee with a substitute can complement each other.

Chandler's average of less than 2 blocks per game in a single season is caused by his style. As a spring man, he will not jump around.

On the offensive end, Oden is a little better than Chandler. He has a certain level of hook and can score the ball in the low post with his height and wingspan. However, the Bulls' offense is mainly from the outside, and the screen is the primary task of the inside.

Skiles wouldn't arrange for Oden to play lob singles from the outside just because he was the No.

The positional three-point tactic is the foundation of the Bulls' two championships. It is meaningless if you can't use your martial arts to score two points.

Therefore, Oden's position in the Bulls is also a bit embarrassing. He is used as a blue-collar player on the court, and he will definitely not take too many shots in the new season.

David Lee was better offensively than Oden, and he didn't have many shots in a game. Oden could only change his college life for the overall change.

After the start of the preseason, Oden did not perform particularly well. He only played 20 minutes per game, and his efficiency was not low. Easy dunk in case.

Wang Jun wants to get in touch with a few new teammates, and he also wants to practice breakthrough skills. He volunteered to not miss the preseason game, and the playing time is not short, with an average of 30 minutes per game.

Calderon also played for a long time, dribbling the ball across half court, passing the ball to Wang Jun and waiting for an opportunity on the outside. The coaching staff decided to let him, and Du Hong continued to substitute.

Calderon is 191cm tall, and he also has advantages in defense and passing. He can easily pass air cuts to his teammates, and the ball protection is not easy to be cut off.

Skiles thinks he picked up a treasure this time. Except for defense, Calderon is no worse than Hinrich in other aspects. He is an underrated guard. He was suppressed by TJ Ford in the Raptors. He didn't play good numbers because of his short playing time. .

Hill, Barnes, and Lewis didn't play for a long time, and the Bulls still won the preseason.

Oden suddenly felt that it was easy to win the game, and the pressure was greatly reduced. As a role player in the Bulls system, he hardly has to work hard. He just needs to help Wang Jun take a pass, make an air cut and wait for the pass.
