如果说扎克·拉文在芝加哥公牛队4-0季前赛后学到了一件事,那就是他们有潜力成为一支“极其可怕”的球队。
在周五以118-105击败孟菲斯灰熊队以保持其完美记录后,拉文对他的球队和公牛队的队友给予了高度赞扬,尽管在休赛期进行了大规模的改造,但他们表现出了良好的化学反应。
对于拉文来说,公牛队已经证明了他们有能力在NBA最好的球队中竞争,特别是当他们像他们在四场季前赛中所表现的那样被防守所束缚的时候。
不过,扎克·拉文完全有理由对公牛队大肆宣传。毕竟,他们确实不仅锁定了对手,还将他们击退。在与克利夫兰骑士队和新奥尔良鹈鹕队的前两场比赛中,他们将两队的得分限制在100分以下,同时以36分的优势击败了他们。
他们唯一的近距离交锋是对阵克利夫兰骑士队,最终以102-101结束。
虽然这只是季前赛,并不能真正反映公牛队将面临的比赛和竞争水平,但看到芝加哥队再次繁荣起来,球迷们肯定感觉很棒。对球队来说,没有比连胜更能增强信心的了。
如果公牛队在球场两端都保持同样的爆发力,拉文和他的队友们将成为2021-2022年最激动人心的球队之一。

Zach LaVine’s ‘extremely scary’ Bulls realization that should worry the NBA
原文:
If there’s one thing Zach LaVine has learned about the Chicago Bulls following their 4-0 preseason, it’s that they have the potential to be an “extremely scary” team.
After taking down the Memphis Grizzlies 118-105 on Friday to maintain their immaculate record, LaVine had nothing but high praises for his team and Bulls teammates who have shown great chemistry despite a massive revamp during the offseason.
For LaVine, the Bulls have proven they have the ability to contend among the best in the NBA, especially when they are locked-in defensively like what they have shown in their four preseason outings.
Zach LaVine has every reason to be hyped about the Bulls, though. After all, it is true that they did not only locked down their opponents but also blew them away. In their first two games against the Cleveland Cavaliers and New Orleans Pelicans, they limited both teams below 100 points while beating them by a margin of 36 points each.
Their only close encounter was against Cleveland Cavaliers that ended 102-101.
While it is only the preseason and it doesn’t really reflect the level of play and competition that the Bulls will be facing, it certainly feels great for fans to see the Chicago franchise thriving again. There’s also no better confidence-booster for the team than an unbeaten streak.
If the Bulls maintain the same explosiveness they showed on both ends of the court, LaVine and Co. figure to be one of the most exciting teams in 2021-22.
