Chapter 277 The new season
After two days of training, the much-anticipated preseason began.
However, what makes Su Yi very regretful is that in order to compete for the championship, the Bulls dismissed everyone's beloved Vinnie DeNagro and invited the famous defensive expert Tom Thibodeau.
Su Yi cannot play a big role in the team's decisions, after all, he has not yet helped the team win a championship.
And, to be honest, rationally speaking, Tom Thibodeau is definitely better than DeNagro in terms of ability, which is also a good thing for Su Yi.
Therefore, the entire Bulls team held a grand farewell dinner for Denagro to thank him for his care and concern for everyone.
At the end of the banquet, DeNagro shed tears and said that his time with the Bulls was the most unforgettable time in his life, and he was grateful to every team member for their support.
Rose, Su Yi and other players also clinked glasses and hugged the old coach.
When Tom Thibodeau actually took office, the team's atmosphere immediately changed drastically.
The originally relaxed atmosphere disappeared, and the stern new coach made strict demands on every player, especially in terms of defensive training, which increased the training load.
However, Tom Thibodeau still has a good attitude towards Su Yi.
Thibodeau personally brought Su Yi and Rose to the office to discuss his views on the team.
To put it simply, the Bulls last season were basically a team with strong offense and weak defense.
Except for Su Yi, this strong point has largely made up for the team's defensive weakness, but after the start of the new season, Thibodeau hopes that the entire team will start to pay attention to the defensive end.
Su Yi and Rose nodded in agreement, expressing their unconditional support for the new coach's guidance and arrangements.
In this way, in a short period of time, the internal adjustments of the new Bulls team were officially over.
In several preseason games, neither Su Yi nor Rose asked to play. Thibodeau only paid them a lot of attention in training and hoped that they could be in better shape for the regular season.
The bench consists of point guard C.J. Watson, shooting guard Keith Bogans, small forward James Johnson, power forward Alian and center Carlos Boozer.
He also achieved good results in the competition.
However, none of this matters, because today is a special day.
It was the Bulls' first regular season game of the 2010-11 season.
Away game against the Golden State Warriors.
After a season of training, Meng Shen has begun to show his potential as a superstar, and his three-pointers are becoming more and more accurate.
Dayao was also successfully sold to the Golden State Warriors by Mosaic at a high price.
When Su Yi learned about this situation, Brother Yao comforted him with a meaningful saying: Never talk about morality and emotions with a pure businessman, because a pure businessman only sees US dollars in his eyes.
Chairman Yao is naturally not a stupid person, and he is naturally happy to leave the Mosaic team intellectually, but after all, after eight years of hard work in Houston, he still can't let go easily.
However, when Dayao came to Jinzhou with some trepidation, all his doubts disappeared.
The cute god welcomed Dayao's arrival with his greatest enthusiasm.
Nelson and the logo man also said sincerely that the starting center position in the new season will definitely be Yao.
This made Yao Ming extremely happy.
By the time of the first regular season game, Dayao had completely cheered up.
…
The lights shine inside Oracle Arena.
Su Yi couldn't wait to change his jersey, and as soon as he stepped out of the tunnel, he saw two very familiar figures.
"Su, your eldest brother belongs to us, and I feel that my touch is getting better and better during this period. I have been looking forward to today's game for a long time. Although you won the World Championships, I will definitely play today's game.
I will defeat you." Meng Shen smiled and walked up to Su Yi.
Su Yi hugged Curry, and then said to Curry: "Brother Yao will get rid of you. I look forward to you being my biggest obstacle to winning the championship in the new season. The Lakers' problems are getting bigger and bigger. I
I’m looking forward to meeting you in the Eastern Conference Finals.”
Curry turned back and smiled at Dayao, and then said cheerfully: "Su, you really worry too much. We all like Dayao very much. He is very humorous and a gentleman. Within a day, our whole team became his."
Friend. Now he is actively losing weight at the request of the coach, and I hope it won't be long before you can experience the new chemistry of our Warriors."
As for Dayao, he smiled and patted Su Yi on the shoulder.
A look between brothers is enough, there is really not much need to exchange pleasantries.
Soon, the starting lineups of the two teams were announced.
Bulls: Rose, Ronnie Brewer, Su Yi, A Lian, Arnold.
Warriors: Curry, Jeremy Lin, Dorell White, Brandon White, Dayao.
The second position has always been a shortcoming of the Bulls, and former Bulls player Kirk Hinrich is the representative of a bad contract.
Therefore, during the offseason, the Bulls dealt with Hinrich's matter quickly, and then recruited players such as Ronny Brewer, making the team even stronger.
Speaking of Ronnie Brewer, his sports genes are very good.
Cutting without the ball, weak side, and corner are Brewer's strengths. He is an athletic shooting guard who plays without the ball, and he also has good defensive abilities.
The Bulls' top perimeter defender in the new season is none other than Brewer.
"beep!"
The referee blew the whistle for the game.
The basketball was thrown high, and was undoubtedly grabbed by Dayao immediately.
Dayao, who is actively trying to lose weight, coupled with his rich experience, really leaves Noah, who has a height difference of 15 centimeters, helpless.
After a few days of training under Thibodeau, the Bulls already feel a little different.
As soon as Curry received the pass and passed half court, Rose fiercely defended him.
And Brewer was keeping an eye on Jeremy Lin nervously, not giving his opponent any chance to take advantage of him.
So Dayao glanced at Curry, then walked to the elementary school student's side, and then used his huge body to turn into a wall of flesh, successfully blocking Rose, who was guarding the cute god.
Curry stared at the basket in the distance with extremely serious eyes for a moment, and then shot the ball as fast as lightning.
Su Yi was stunned when he saw it not far away.
This cute guy with blue eyes has made great progress in shooting speed.
The aura of stopping people and killing people in the peak period of the future has begun to gradually develop.
The cute god Curry is a formidable opponent at heart.
"Whoa!"
The basketball splashed crisply onto the net.
Hollow into the net!
Su Yi shook his head. He knew that he was not the only one who had made progress.
But my heart became excited.
This game is starting to become more and more interesting.
Curry walked up to Su Yi with a smile, and laughed proudly, with a shaky look on his face. The concentration and murderous aura just now disappeared.
Su Yi grinned: "Man, haven't you suffered enough from the World Championships?"
Curry couldn't stop complaining, snorted and got back on defense.
Chapter completed!
