The new season that everyone was looking forward to had begun.
The team made two deals in the summer. In addition to sending the injury-ridden MVP to New York in exchange for Robin Lobecz and the other inside players, they also sent the main fourth position, Ty gibson, in exchange for the two substitutes of the Knicks and an unknown player.
The Bulls fans complained and objected to sending the youngest MVP, Ross, away. After all, Ross had led the Bulls to the Eastern Conference finals and brought the team back to its peak. Therefore, even if he was no longer at his peak and his competitive form was getting worse year by year, they still liked him.
However, the trade had happened, and it was irreversible. For the sake of the team's future, it was understandable for the management to make such a choice. They could only protest on the official website. What else could they do?
Later, they even changed the team's lineup from the previous season and brought out Darron. They could only groan weakly and stop.
To their relief, Wade and Rondo were here. One of them was the awe-inspiring Flash, who had three championship rings. Even though he was also a veteran who had many injuries and was no longer at his peak, he still welcomed the arrival of his local players as long as he still had some strength.
The other was the Celtics 'former champion point guard. Although he had just passed his peak, he could still contribute to the team.
With that, they could still look forward to the new lineup formed by the two famous defenders and the newly established core Butler.
The only thing they were unhappy about was that the player who traded for Darron, Lu Yi, actually took the number 1 jersey after Ross left. This made countless fans who used to like Ross furious.
How did you get to wear the jersey of our former MVP core?
What strength do you have to be worthy of it?
In their hearts, with Ross 'departure, the number 1 jersey had been retired. No one was worthy of it.
At one point on the official website, they strongly requested the management to order Lu Yi to change his number. As long as it was not this number or the god-like number 23, they could accept it. However, it was useless.
There were even some who went to the training center to stop him and angrily requested to change his number in front of Lu Yi, but it was to no avail.
They were frustrated, grumbling, and even cursing Lu Yi in their hearts. Even some fans who had watched the latter's outstanding performance in the summer league could not accept this fact.
In particular, in the seven preseason games, Lu Yi, who was wearing the Bulls 'number one jersey but only got a few minutes of playing time, was like a player guarding the water dispenser. Their dissatisfaction deepened and intensified, almost to the point of demonstrating on the streets.
In the preseason games, Hoyberg had practiced a few sets of tactics with the new main lineup as the main point. For someone like Lu Yi who clearly wanted to start his career as a substitute, he could only run a few times during the time when the main lineup was off, score a few points, and then go off again to replace another batch of substitutes.
The ironclad main force and the flowing substitutes. Lu Yi had never been given more than ten minutes of playing time in every match.
October 27th, 8 PM.
In the first regular season game between the Boston Celtics and the Boston Bulls, many people came together. They still had their love for the number 1 jersey and their dissatisfaction with Lu Yi. They were ready to make their voices heard in the game.
As a result, during the warm-up period, every time Lu Yi appeared and shot, he was booed. The treatment he received was worse than his opponent, the Bucks.
He was indifferent to life and death. If he was not convinced, he would fight!
Lu Yi was confused, innocent, and angry at the same time. He did not quite understand. It was just a number that could not be retired, but these fans did not differentiate between primary and secondary, and did not distinguish between friend and foe. They were all booing a member of the team like him.
When he was angry, it was easy for him to do some stubborn things, especially under the instigation of the system. His face was full of anger.
"Host, the fans of the team are booing you at home. As a future superstar, how can you tolerate this? Now, please make one of the following choices…"
"Option 1: Use your performance to convince them. In your first match, get the first stats of your career that surpass Derrick Rose's, and you'll be rewarded with-10 injuries. In addition, he had surpassed Ross 'first-season average average and was rewarded with Jordan's fadeaway basket!”
"Option 2: Ignore these boos and do what you should do. Let nature take its course. There will be no reward!”
The last time, because of the Tengxun NBA players, the system had given him the task of breaking the three-point record in a single season. Today, the system had added another task on top of that. It seemed like it would be difficult to complete this task during his reserve time.
What was Rose's average in his rookie season?
Lu Yi knew it very well because he had specially checked before choosing the number 1 jersey.
In his first season, Ross played 81 games and started 80 games. He was average at 16.8 points, 3.9 rebounding, 6.3 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.2 blocked shots, 2.5 turnovers, and 1.5 fouls.
His two-point field goal percentage was 47.8%, and his three-point field goal percentage was 22.2%.
In his first game, he scored 11 points and 9 assists!
With Butler, the core player in the starting lineup, it was difficult for him to achieve such an average in the time he was on the bench.
If it was the first mission to break the three-point record, it would be fine. He would just throw three points on the field. It didn't matter how many minutes the substitutes played, as long as they scored five three-pointers in every game, it would be over.
Of course, this kind of paranoid play could only be done when the shooting rate was stable and the team allowed it.
But now, there was another rule. He even had to get 3.9 rebound and 6.3 assist per game. This was simply killing him. After he scored a basketball, he pondered for a moment and looked at Butler, who was standing in the corner shooting. He thought maliciously,
Should I break this guy's leg?
He believed that he would only fulfill those requirements if he could beat the Butler until he was hospitalized and scrapped for a season.
