Chapter 440 Big News(2/4)
He began to take the initiative in singles, and he began to work hard to defend.
However, none of these can play a key role.
In the first half, Chen Jie did not slack off in his work.
What he needs now is to put all his energy on the court and concentrate on every detail, because the competition in basketball games is extremely fierce, and many small details will have a great impact. A little bit of absent-mindedness will affect the player's state.
However, Chen Jie could not achieve this no matter how hard he tried.
As the game time passed minute by minute, Chen Jie still couldn't find his form. His touch was gone, his breakthrough was gone...
He was like a beast trapped in a cage, roaring but unable to truly awaken.
If Chen Jiefa recovers, then the result of the game is doomed.
In the end, although Chen Jie worked hard until the last second, the Bulls still lost to the Cavaliers by 18 points, 102-120.
Chen Jie took 22 shots in the game and only hit six, scoring 18 points. His turnovers were a career-high eight.
LeBron James scored 36 points, seven rebounds, and eight assists. In this face-to-face confrontation with Chen Jie, he completely defeated Chen Jie.
Kwame Brown was the Bulls' leading scorer with 23 points and 12 rebounds. He was the Bulls' only bright spot today.
All of this was fixed there at the moment the game ended.
However, for the media, these things that they were most concerned about before the game - the game results and the personal data of Chen Jie and James, now seem not so important.
What they are most concerned about and want to know most now is why Chen Jie suddenly fell into such a slump!
This is their focus.
However, they wanted to interview Chen Jie face to face but failed.
In the locker room after the game, Chen Jie said nothing and did not answer any reporters' questions.
Even if he had to speak, he could not get any useful information from Chen Jie's mouth.
He just said that he would adjust well and that there was nothing wrong with him. But how could the media believe these clichés?
They wanted to get to the bottom of it, but Chen Jie's lack of cooperation left them unable to do anything.
They tried every method, including provocation and warmth, but they couldn't pry Chen Jie's mouth open.
Chen Jie didn't even attend the press conference after the game. He went directly back to the bus.
The reporters couldn't get the answer from Chen Jie's mouth, so they pointed their finger at Chicago's players and coach Scales!
This focused battle between the Cavaliers and Bulls ended with the Cavaliers' victory.
James also completely suppressed Chen Jie in terms of personal data.
In this face-to-face conversation between the two, LeBron James finally made a comeback.
In this contest, LeBron James won completely.
This was originally the question that everyone was most concerned about before the game. But now, the answer was revealed, but it seemed not so important.
Because of another question, everyone feels even more curious.
That is, in this game, Chen Jie has always seemed absent-minded and his mind has not been on the court. What is it that makes Chen Jie so distracted, and what is the reason that makes Chen Jie's state so sluggish today?
Since entering the league, it seems that this is the first time that Chen Jie has performed abnormally.
Such a rare thing suddenly happened today. Of course, many people want to break the casserole and ask the truth of the matter.
After the game, reporters from the media rushed to the visiting team's locker room at the Cleveland Credit Center and surrounded Chen Jie, trying to pry his mouth open.
However, Chen Jie's silence made them fail.
Seeing that the possibility of getting an answer from Chen Jie was slim, the reporters quickly turned their attention and targeted Chen Jie's teammate Chandler, Chris Duhon and others, as well as Chen Jie's coach, Skiles.
.
The reporters all felt that if Chen Jie had a problem, these people would definitely know about it.
But they really thought wrong this time. What happened to Chen Jie today? Everyone within the Bulls team was very curious about this question and wanted to know the answer.
Therefore, when faced with reporters' questions, it was impossible for them to betray Chen Jie unless they said so. Even if they wanted to, they had nothing to tell reporters.
However, these Bulls players all support Chen Jie.
The head coach of the Bulls, seeing Chen Jie in a sluggish state in this game, still insisted on trusting Chen Jie and put Chen Jie on the court. Skiles, who would definitely be criticized by the media for this choice, faced reporters' microphones.
, still stick to his attitude.
"I still believe in Jay. He is the best player on our team. I will never worry about what will happen to him? Today, today is just an accident. He will adjust quickly and come back soon."
Skiles' support can be said to be the support a coach must have for his star player.
However, none of the Bulls players complained about Chen Jie when it came to this issue. Instead, they still firmly supported Chen Jie. This shows Chen Jie's popularity within the Bulls.
Chris Duhong, who was Chen Jie's alumnus when he was at Duke University and played basketball with Chen Jie for three years, is now Chen Jie's second iron buddy - No. 1 is Lillard Brown Jr.
, faced reporters’ questions, he said: “I don’t know what’s wrong with Jie. However, no matter what the problem is, I will stand by his side. As for today’s performance, yes, Jie did not perform well.
.But don’t forget that he has been outstanding for three consecutive months. It is understandable to take a break occasionally. Moreover, I believe that he will come back soon. This is just a small problem for him! No.
Wrong, it’s a very, very small problem!”
Because of Chen Jie, Nocchioni got the opportunity to play and then became famous with a goal in his debut. Although when he was on the court today, after seeing Chen Jie's poor condition, he tried to play singles by himself instead of playing with Du.
Hong also chose to pass the ball to Chen Jie, but his support for Chen Jie was no less than that of Du Hong.
"I think your question is very interesting. Jay still scored more than 20 points today. Does this kind of scoring count as a bad performance? In your opinion, he must score 40 or 50 points every night to be considered.
Is it normal? Okay, I admit, Jay has always behaved like this before. But he can't play Superman every night, and he also has vacations. Besides, I don't think anyone will doubt that after vacations, Jay is still the same.
Will Superman Returns?"
Noccioni didn't even comment on Chen Jie, saying that he was out of shape and in a sluggish state. He directly used the metaphor of a vacation to describe Chen Jie's performance tonight.
These remarks remind people of the classic words Jordan said in Malone's ear about the postman not working on weekends.
Nozzioni's sentence: Superman also needs to take a vacation is really similar to this sentence.
However, few reporters really doubted Noccioni's words.
Chen Jie has created too many incredible things in the past. Therefore, even if he did not perform well this time, the media did not dare to criticize Chen Jie casually. They just wanted to know the reason for Chen Jie's poor performance.
They know Chen Jie's character very well. If Chen Jie recovers in the next game, then today's criticism may become a slap in the face for Chen Jie in the future!
Journalists don't want to be Chen Jie's target again.
And, indeed, these media reporters really felt that Chen Jie's abnormality in this game was just an accident, and he would be back soon.
Chandler, the Bulls' oldest player on the court, who has actually only played in the NBA for four years, said this when answering reporters' questions.
"I don't know what happened to Jayshawn. Obviously, his performance was affected by off-court factors today. However, I believe that Jay will solve these problems well and come back quickly. In fact, I
The Jie I know is such a professional player. I have always admired his dedication and hard work, and I have no worries about him at all!"
Chandler's evaluation was quite satisfactory, but his support for Chen Jie was also very obvious in his words.
Afterwards, Luol Duncinrich, who did not play, Antonio Davis, the boss of the Bulls locker room, Kwame Brown, who had just transferred, and all the Bulls players were asked about Chen Jie by reporters.
, all expressed their confidence unabashedly. They all agreed that what happened today was just an accident. Chen Jie would not stay in such a sluggish state forever, and he would be back soon.
However, although each of these Bulls players expressed their support for Chen Jie, they still did not answer the reporters' doubts.
Chen Jie's performance was sluggish today, what happened? What happened to him?
The reporters couldn't get the answer, but they had to write tomorrow's report.
Because today Chen Jie is in a sluggish state and his performance is not good, it must be the biggest news in the past few days, and tens of thousands of fans must want to know the answer.
Even if these reporters don't know the truth, they still have to report it.
So now, they have no choice but to use their imagination.
They thought a lot of people on the Bulls team mentioned off-court factors.
Since it is an off-field factor, and seeing how supportive the Bulls' head coach and players are of Chen Jie, it must not be a locker room issue.
Could it be that something happened in the family?
As Chen Jie became famous, his life experience had long been dug up by American reporters.
A basketball genius who came to the United States with his parents, both of whom died, and wandered to Duke.
This is the news dug up by American reporters.
Well, it is impossible for them to think of such an incredible thing as time travel, so the so-called things like coming to the United States with their parents and having both their parents die are just their imagination.
However, from the time Chen Jie became famous until now, his parents have never appeared in the public eye, which shows that the media's speculation is quite reasonable.
His parents are gone, which means that he will not be distracted by things at home.
Then, there is only one person who can distract Chen Jie.
Li Ming'er, Chen Jie's current girlfriend!
If Chen Jie is distracted by Li Ming'er's affairs, there is only one explanation, and that is that there is a relationship problem between Li Ming'er and Chen Jie.
This is easy to understand. The two people may have broken up or had a quarrel, and then Chen Jie would be absent-minded during the game and his performance was so sluggish.
