Healthy basketball, starting from eating the old Lakers F4

The deceased is like this, not giving up day and night.

NBA is like a long-flowing river. Every once in a while, new streams flow into it, while at the same time, soil, mud and sand are stranded on the shore.

Some were washed ashore by the waves, forming a small mound, unknown to the public.

Some rely on their own accumulation and the help of luck to form a mountain where people can climb up and look far, and be remembered by people.

There are also famous mountains that have risen from the ground over time, changing with each passing day, and are so high that they are inaccessible that people are afraid of them.

In short, this is a process of filtering out the good and the bad.

To date, the NBA has been around for more than 70 years, and most of the players who entered the NBA in the early 21st century have already left the NBA.

The recent podcast by Wade and the other two has made NBA fans realize that the 03 Platinum Generation of players and stars, who were once the mainstay of the league, are about to retire and bid farewell to the NBA stage.

As for the few remaining players from the 03 Platinum Generation, it is unknown how many more years they can play in the league.

What everyone knows is the honors that the stars have accumulated in the past.

Some people are the uncrowned kings who are ridiculed by everyone.

Some people have won ten NBA championships early on, and even if they retire now, they have already secured the throne of the number one player in NBA history.

After all, the championships won by Duane are of great value.

Whether considering it from the perspective of opponents, teammates, technology, era, environment and many other aspects, there is enough evidence to prove the value of Dunn's championship.

After all, Duane's career spanned the 00s and 10s. He has felt the afterglow of the four great centers, fought to the end with swingmen and guards, and is the leader of today's small ball era.

In terms of skills, Duane is no worse than the stars of the 1980s and 1990s. It can be said that he stood on the shoulders of giants and made further progress.

In terms of defense, the defensive treatment Duane encountered was not as disgusting as that of the Pistons' Bad Boys.

However, in the era when double-team defense was legalized, the team remained strong despite numerous setbacks and won one championship after another.

In terms of game pace, shooting range, and shooting ability, the overall level of this era is obviously better than that of the 1980s, 1990s, when veteran stars talked about the battles between gods.

What's more, Duane came from the 21st century when defense was king, and now he has won championship rings by relying on offense.

In two completely different eras, Dunn played to his own level and style, and achieved the most brilliant and dazzling achievements.

To be honest, the only thing that can defeat Dune is time.

Just like Wade who is about to leave the NBA stage.

It's not that Wade can't play. If he gets a veteran minimum salary contract, he will have no problem playing for another two or three years.

It is also because of his brilliant achievements in the league in the past. He is one of the few stars in the 03 Platinum Generation who won FMVP and the championship. Wade has his own pride.

Therefore, they could not tolerate the fact that their strength was declining and they were constantly bullied and abused by the young people in the league.

Duan can still fight now, but in a few years, he will have to admit that he is old. After all, old people can no longer rely on their muscles and bones!

To play in the NBA, it is far from enough to rely solely on skills to gain a foothold.

The body is the first factor!

So, Duane is almost at the age to consider retirement.

Of course, compared with the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, there have been many improvements in today's era.

If Duane wants to continue his dominance for a few more years and wants to be both the tallest mountain and the longest river in the league, he can fully rely on technology, maintain a good competitive form, and strive to win a few more championships in the league.

The problem is, doing so doesn't make a lot of sense for Dunn.

Unlike other stars of the same period who have no championships, or only one or two championships, Duane has become numb to winning games and championships. Perhaps except for the finals and the championship parade, when he holds the championship trophy, he will be happy for a while, but the victory of other games cannot make Duane happy or excited.

To put it bluntly, he has won too many championships and his threshold is too high. Ordinary victories cannot stimulate Dunn's emotions.

Therefore, Duane is not very interested in staying in the league to play, seek fame, accumulate historical data, and block the way for future generations.

Others changed tracks because they couldn't compete, but Duane had already run the longest distance on the current track, a level that is almost unmatched.

With enough strength and confidence, Duan can relax and stop worrying about such things.

After getting a little understanding of the outside public opinion, Duane, like his other Bulls teammates, just had fun for two days and then quickly got into preparations for the playoffs.

This year, the Bulls' first-round opponent, the Wizards, is of average strength, but the Bulls did not take it lightly.

On April 4, the first round G15 will start at the United Center.

Curry scored 16 points in a single quarter right at the start, suppressing the Wizards with his crazy offensive firepower.

Although the Wizards have paid more attention to Curry and strengthened their defense against him, Curry can still score through off-ball three-pointers with the help of screens from Duane, Horford and Jokic.

As for the points scored by holding the ball, it was mainly scored by Duane.

Of course, Jokic also shared some of the responsibility.

However, because Duane's passing level is higher and he can feed Jokic comfortably, Jokic doesn't have to keep running high to compete with Duane for the ball.

92 to 104. Overall, the Bulls played without much pressure in Game 1.

On the surface, the score difference was not big, but in fact, the Wizards were suppressed by the Bulls throughout the game.

Perhaps it is because the regular season is the same as the playoffs, and the Bulls are used to unfair and extremely double-standard penalties.

So even though the Bulls still suffered losses in terms of penalties in the playoffs, they were still able to quickly adapt to the rhythm of the game and then perform at their normal level.

On the contrary, the Wizards did not grasp the scale of the playoffs so accurately, and were not so adaptable after the game started, so they could not find a chance to overtake the score and counterattack the Bulls.

After the trial in G1, the Bulls were no longer polite.

In G2, the Bulls scored 121 points and defeated the Wizards again with a huge difference of 31 points.

This is mainly because G1 is testing the scale and then considering giving rookies some opportunities.

In G2, it was a pure starting lineup, plus a veteran substitute lineup.

The Bulls' overall strength was clearly demonstrated as they defeated the Wizards, another playoff team, in just three quarters.

In the fourth quarter, the Bulls gave the rookies some time and opportunity to practice more, and even Murray, who started the game, was no exception.

However, the confidence of the Wizards' main players had been shattered, and they also sent in substitutes in the fourth quarter, resulting in little change in the score difference. The Bulls still won the game with a score difference of 30+.

The Bulls won two consecutive games at home, including a 31-point victory in the second game, which is enough to illustrate the gap between the two teams in this round of playoffs.

The same thing will happen when we move to Washington. There is not much difference between playing away and playing at home.

It's just that the Bulls, as they have done in the past, gave the Wizards some face out of courtesy.

Of course, it is reasonable to let team owners make more money.

After all, the Bulls' salary will explode next season. If the team is not given more money in this year's playoffs, the team management may break up the team during the offseason.

4 to 1, the Bulls, like in previous years, once again swept their opponents in the first round of the playoffs and successfully advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals. (End of this chapter)
