Chapter 145 Player of the Month, Karl Malone’s template!

After defeating the Cavaliers in an away game, the Bulls and Devils' seven-game away schedule has come to an end.

Under Duan's leadership, the Bulls had a seven-game away record of 4 wins and 3 losses.

As an Eastern Conference lottery team still in the process of rebuilding, it is not easy to achieve such results.

Before the Bulls and their team returned to Chicago, the local Chicago media began to publicize and report on it.

Chicago Daily News - Duane, the light of Chicago!Under the leadership of Dunn, the Chicago Bulls ended the Devils' seven-game losing streak with 4 wins and 3 losses. They currently rank sixth in the Eastern Conference and are in sight of the playoffs.

"NBC Chicago" - Who is the best player in the Eastern Conference this season in your opinion?Duane or Dwyane Wade or LeBron James or Shaquille O’Neal or Jermaine O’Neal or Allen Iverson…

"Chicago Tribune" - The battle for the best rookie has come to an end. Duan scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists, leading the team to an easy victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers in three quarters!
"Chicago Sun" - Duan delivered a perfect answer in the first month of the new season, leading the team to 7 wins and 5 losses, helping the Chicago Bulls squeeze into the top eight in the Eastern Conference.The best man is already in the lineup, and the Chicago Bulls are about to usher in a renaissance.

"Fox News" - Scottie Pippen claimed in an interview that Duane is an extremely good leader and that if he were ten years younger, he would be willing to fight alongside Duane.

The Bulls' next game is on the 1st of next month, which means that this month's game is completely over.

In the first month of the regular season, the Bulls posted a good record of 7 wins and 5 losses, ranking sixth in the Eastern Conference!
To Chicago fans, Duane is definitely the best player in the East.

Judging from the Player of the Week for the four weeks of this month, they are Duane, Wade, James, and O'Neal, who was just announced this week.

Basically, the league's official Player of the Month for November will only be selected from these four players.

Duane's advantage in competing for the Eastern Conference Player of the Month is his data, averaging 25+ triple-doubles per game. Looking at the data alone, no one in the Eastern Conference can compare with Duan.

However, the criteria for selecting Player of the Month are the same as Player of the Week and regular season MVP. They not only look at data, but also at team performance.

These days, a brush can produce a scoring champion, but it cannot produce a regular season MVP.

The team's record was poor, the statistics were astronomical, and they could only make the best lineup.

From the perspective of team record, Wade and O'Neal of the Miami Heat, currently second in the Eastern Conference, have more advantages than Duane and James.

However, sometimes public opinion can still influence award selection.

As the third largest city in North America, Chicago has rich media resources, which are not available in Cleveland and Miami.

The Chicago media went silent for many years after Jordan left.

Now that they have finally found a popular superstar like Du En who has great potential and is very young, and can also bring his own topics and traffic, which is enough to support them for more than ten years, naturally he will continue to fight for Du En. blow.

Of course, sometimes if you want to flatter someone, you shouldn't be too blatant. Instead, you need to use some stepping stones to step on it and attract more people to participate in the discussion.

Who is the No. 03 rookie in 1?
Who is the best perimeter player in the East?

Who is the best playmaker in the East?

Who has the best chance to win the Eastern Conference Player of the Month?
What do Dunn and Jordan have in common and what are the differences?

What did Pippen say about Duane and Jordan?

It can only be said that the Chicago media understands the fans' mentality very well and knows how to build momentum for Duen!
They didn't openly brag about Duan, they just raised topic after topic to attract the attention of fans from other parts of the United States and let outside fans participate in discussions on these topics.

When there are enough topics, and Dunn often discusses them with Kidd, Iverson, and even Jordan, people will naturally gradually develop the illusion that Dunn is indeed on the same level as them.

And with this illusion, if Duen is compared with the 03 rookies, he will naturally become the No. 1 without much controversy.

When people sit at home, their joy comes from the sky.

Originally, Duan himself didn't think he had a chance to win the Eastern Conference Player of the Month award in November.

Who would have thought that through the spontaneous operation of the Chicago media, Dunn would stand out from the many stars in the Eastern Conference.

On the afternoon of December 12st, Duan was still actively warming up, making plans in advance to play against Kobe Bryant again, and preparing to win tonight's battle with greater certainty.Suddenly, a system prompt sounded in my ears.

[Congratulations on winning the Eastern Conference Player of the Month during the NBA 04-05 regular season and achieving the Player of the Month achievement.Get the chance to win the best player of the month template lottery, do you want to win the lottery? 】

"Pull, you have to smoke!"

Even though I was cramming, the newly drawn template couldn't bring much help to tonight's battle.

However, before the war begins, it is also good to taste some sweetness first.

[Congratulations on getting the Karl Malone template! 】

"Fuck, I know all Master Ma's moves!"

I learned a lot about pick-and-rolls, elbows to clear the way, transition attacks, and even small moves.

However, I have to admit that Malone's body is extremely durable, he is constantly fighting inside, and he can ensure full attendance for several consecutive years.

It is worth mentioning that those who missed one or two games in the season also had to "rest" because they were suspended by the league.

In addition, as a good mid-range shooter, Malone can presumably make up for Duane's lack of mid-range shooting ability and ensure the stability of the playoffs.

There is no doubt that Duan's configuration has been improved to a certain extent.

However, this will take some time to level up again.

"Duen, I haven't seen you for a month, and you're already the best player of the month! I almost don't recognize you!"

In the evening, the Bulls and Lakers were warming up at the United Center. As a former teammate, Kobe stepped forward to congratulate Dunn at the right time.

Of course, for Kobe, it is a pity that he failed to win the Western Conference Player of the Month in November.

But if you can defeat the Eastern Conference Player of the Month with your own hands, I'm afraid it will be more fulfilling.

"Don't worry, I will entertain you well tonight, and you will definitely remember me well!" Du En said with a hidden smile.

Kobe also smiled when he heard this: "Very good, I'll wait and see!"

In the opening game, Kobe failed to find the right way to lead the team, but after a month of running-in, Kobe has basically mastered the right to speak in the Lakers locker room.

Recently, the Lakers have been on a winning streak, beating the top teams in the Western Conference.

Although the overall record was only 6 wins and 6 losses, the main reason was the team's lack of cooperation at the beginning of the regular season, and Kobe himself also had many problems, which dragged down the record.

Under the support and guidance of Tang Shuai, especially after losing to Doon, Kobe also began to slowly change and slowly face the strength of other teammates in the team.

Although Kobe's desire to attack has not weakened much, he will also pass many good balls to his teammates inside and help the Lakers go further.

It was Kobe who set an example and took the initiative to lower his attitude and accept other teammates. Now the Lakers' momentum to win is also very good.

Nowadays, the Eastern Conference has a consecutive away schedule. For a championship team like the Lakers, isn't coming to the Eastern Conference just to improve their record?

Having already lost once in the previous opening game, Kobe was also more concerned about Duan and the Bulls.

Therefore, before coming here, I had already studied the Bulls' overall strength very thoroughly.

"Duen, I hope you won't disappoint me!"

After throwing away the harsh words, Kobe also went back to warm up. Even though the Lakers were stronger overall, Kobe showed no signs of relaxing.
