Chapter 155: 13 consecutive wins, All-Star vote leader!

The Christmas War has just come to an end, and the All-Star voting channel has officially opened.

Duan also has some thoughts about the All-Star Weekend in more than two months.

For this reason, I signed up for the skills challenge and the three-point contest early, hoping to achieve something by then.

By the way, not long after the Bulls and their team returned to Chicago from New York, they took a car to Milwaukee next door and had another fight with the Bucks.

Bulls fans are also really wealthy, almost turning the Bucks' home court into the Bulls' home court.

With the enthusiastic support of the fans, Du En once again led the team to a 20+ point difference, and with a score of 109 to 86, he once again started a winning streak.

On December 12, the Bulls faced the Nets at home, which had been in turmoil recently but had just completed reinforcements.

The Nets and Raptors just reached a deal on Christmas Eve, and Carter became a part of the Nets, and even directly became the boss of the Nets.

In order to win the championship, Kidd also had troubles. Knowing that his scoring ability was insufficient, he took the initiative to give up his position as the team's boss.

Let Carter attack the tough situation and serve as Carter's deputy. He is mainly responsible for connecting the team and the outside defense.

This is also the fundamental reason why after Carter joined the Nets, his statistics increased dramatically, he seemed to be back to his peak, and he was playing better than before his serious injury.

On the contrary, Kidd, once the second in charge, can only be the second in charge from now on, completely falling out of the star lineup.

By the way, it was also because Carter had just arrived at the Nets that Kidd truly transformed into a base player who didn't attack and didn't take any shots at all.

Carter is also preparing to integrate into the team in his own way, and because he needs to prove his strength as the new boss of the Nets in front of his new teammates, he is also more diligent in taking shots.

When Duan faced Carter, he didn't hesitate at all and was directly treated like he was facing Kobe.

卡特打得还算可以，23投9中，三分4投1中，罚球9投6中，砍下了25分6篮板3助攻。

不过杜恩凭借31投15中，三分7投3中，罚球6投5中，获得了38分8篮板11助攻的准三双数据。

In the end, Duan was superior and helped the Bulls defeat the Nets, who had not yet adjusted their lineup.

After beating the Nets, the Bulls also completely ended their 04 schedule.

Then, a new year entered.

On January 2005, 1, coinciding with the New Year's Day, the Bulls faced the Magic at home with 1 wins and 15 losses, seventh in the Eastern Conference.

No one expected that under McGrady's leadership last season, the Magic would still be a lottery team.

Because McGrady didn't want to train with Howard, he took the initiative to force Gong to leave. Instead, the Magic had the possibility of making the playoffs.

Of course, the more critical factor here is Grant Hill's return from injury.

The Magic's outside lineup is composed of Francis, Mobley, and Grant Hill, which is considered one of the best in the Eastern Conference.

However, for Duen, this lineup is still relatively easy to play.

Francis and Mobley are too short, and Grant Hill has just returned from injury and is not afraid to fight.

Duen doesn't even need to pick and roll his opponents. He only needs to use his backhand from a high position, and he can play whatever he wants.

It was also because he was considering playing against the Pistons in the next game after playing the Magic, so Duan did not use all his firepower, but focused on the series.

90比105，公牛主场大胜15分，杜恩也以22分13篮板15助攻的全能表现，狠狠的刷了一波数据。

There is no doubt that a stable Eastern Conference bonus like the Magic's is Durn's best opportunity to average a triple-double per game.

The members of the Bulls Youth Army are also very satisfied with Du En.

After all, scoring data is the most valuable!The cake that Doon was most happy to share with them was the score!
Such a good boss can't be found even with a lantern!
After winning four consecutive games, Dunn was still looking forward to whether he could win the Eastern Conference Player of the Month again.

However, all he has to wait for is another Eastern Conference Player of the Week honor.

场均23分5.9篮板7.7助攻1.5抢断0.8盖帽的韦德，凭借热火14胜1负，冲击到东部第一的战绩。

Defeating the competitor Duan, he won the honor of Player of the Month for the first time in his career.

As a good brother, Du En didn't feel any grudge when he saw this, but instead took the initiative to call Wade to congratulate him.

After Wade accepted Du En's compliment, he also said that when Du En arrives in Miami next time, he will definitely ask Du En to go out on a sea adventure.

You know, Chicago is freezing and snowy, but Miami is as warm as spring!
Miami's style is just like the Heat's team name, passionate!

Du En is quite looking forward to this, looking forward to what new tricks Wade can come up with for him.

However, it will still be two months until the next game against the Heat, which happens to be around the All-Star weekend.

Time soon came to January 1, when the Bulls played against the Detroit Pistons again.

This time the Bulls are playing at home, while the Pistons are playing back-to-back away games.

Last night, the Pistons' top five battled against the Celtics for four quarters!
Objectively speaking, this will undoubtedly help the Bulls players win tonight's game.

Duan also doesn't want the Bulls to only be able to take advantage of the Eastern Conference's dividends and not be able to touch a truly strong team like the Pistons.

You know, the Timberwolves, who have always been bad, can also win a victory from the 73-win Warriors.

The Bulls youth team, inspired by Du En, also went all out for tonight's game.As a result, with Duen leading the charge, the iron wall built by the Pistons' five tigers showed some signs of collapse early in the first quarter.

The Pistons were in poor condition in the first quarter and only scored 18 points, while the Bulls scored 24 points.

In the second quarter, the Pistons recovered and scored 23 points, but they still lost to the Bulls, who had more success from the outside and scored 25 points.

In order to maintain the 8-point lead achieved in the first half and to win tonight, Doan went directly to guard Billups after entering the third quarter.

Because of this, Hamilton had to increase the number of shots he took.

Although, Andres Nocioni's defense did not interfere much with Hamilton's shooting.

But Hamilton's mid-range shooting wasn't particularly bad. He just shot 7 of 4 in the third quarter. His shooting percentage was high, but it couldn't kill the game.

64 to 74, after the third quarter, the Bulls just took a 10-point lead.

Seeing that he had the hope of winning, Du En naturally had no need to conserve his physical strength.

In the fourth quarter, Du En continued to start. After playing for 5 minutes, the point difference widened to 15 points, and then he went down to rest for a while.

Perhaps also because of the back-to-back, Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace were obviously unable to play in the fourth quarter.

After Duan came off the court, the Pistons did not quickly narrow the point difference, basically maintaining it at around 15 points.

When Duane returned to the court with more than 4 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Pistons basically had no possibility of turning defeat into victory.

With a 13-point difference, the Bulls still had the ball, and the Pistons kept their money on the court.

The Bulls adopted the most correct way to win. Duan took the initiative to control the ball and slow down the rhythm of the game. Ben Gordon acted as a killer and helped Duan share some of the offensive pressure.

The others are all blue-collar workers who do the dirty work. They are only responsible for setting screens on the outside, defending, protecting rebounds, and implementing shark-cutting tactics against Ben.

83 to 99, under the leadership of Duan, the Bulls once again defeated the league's best team by a big score!
Also with this 5-game winning streak, the Bulls have officially reached the top of the playoffs and temporarily won the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference!
However, this is just the beginning.

On January 1, the Bulls visited New Orleans to face the Hornets, who had 5 wins and 2 losses and were last in the Western Conference.

For a team that pursues the No. [-] pick in advance, the Bulls will naturally win without any effort at all.

Duan once again posted a triple-double of 21 points, 16 rebounds and 14 assists, making it more possible to average a triple-double per game this season.

After returning to Chicago after beating the Hornets, the Bulls continue to have a sweet schedule of five consecutive home games.

On January 1, the Bulls faced the Jazz, who was injured and absent.

With Boozer leading the team alone, it would be impossible for the Jazz to win at the Bulls' home court.

On January 1, the Bulls faced the Celtics back-to-back at home.

In this game, Duan not only restricted Pierce, the Celtics' strongest offensive player, on the defensive end, but also defeated Tony Allen, the Celtics' strongest single defender on the offensive end.

In back-to-back games, Duan's stability on both offense and defense made many media exclaim that it was incredible.

Coincidentally, due to the Bulls' continuous winning streak, Duan's statistics were also very explosive, and he once again won the honor of Eastern Conference Player of the Week.

And the first-round voting results for the Eastern Conference All-Stars have just been released. Duane, who is also the dunk king, has surpassed Carter and temporarily became the Eastern Conference All-Star voting leader.

For a time, Duan was in the limelight, and his personal performance was catching up with Tracy McGrady in the 02-03 season.

Pippen, who was unhappy with his life, frequently compared Dunn with Jordan in interviews with major media outlets in Chicago.

However, Rodman, who also played for the Bulls in another court and played in another way, supported Jordan and said that Jordan could not be surpassed.

After hearing this news, Du En didn't care.

However, the interested Chicago media, as well as Nike behind Duan, continued to use Duan to hype up with great fanfare, and received a huge wave of traffic.

Although Duan filmed some commercials and accepted some interviews, which took up some training and rest time, fortunately, the Bulls' record was not affected.

After beating the Celtics, the Bulls defeated weak teams in the East and West such as the Warriors and the 76ers at the United Center.

On January 1th, he faced the Knicks led by Anthony again, and Duan showed no mercy at all.

Let Anthony once again understand what team basketball is and what the correct way to win is.

Anthony didn't wake up so quickly, he just felt that he was not strong enough yet, and he would challenge Du En next time when he became stronger.

The Bulls' winning streak continued. On the 19th, they visited Boston and defeated the Celtics again. On the 21st, Atlanta defeated the Hawks in an away game.

It wasn't until the back-to-back games on the 22nd that the Auburn Hills Palace Arena faced the Pistons again, and the 13-game winning streak came to an end.

However, over the past month, with the help of a record of 13 wins and 1 loss, the Bulls have gone crazy, rushing directly from fourth place in the Eastern Conference to second place in the Eastern Conference.

Now there is only one win away from the Heat, which ranks first in the Eastern Conference!

And within this month, Duan still remains far ahead in the Eastern Conference All-Star voting.

Even the late comers overtook Kobe Bryant, the Western Conference voting leader, and became the All-Star voting leader!

With the enthusiasm and strength of domestic fans and Chicago fans, it is not difficult for Duan to maintain his reputation as the All-Star vote king...
