With a 107-84 victory, the Bulls defeated their opponents by 23 points on the Heat's home court, delivering a crushing blow to the newly formed Heat Big Three. Throughout the game, Heat fans were left stunned. The two teams were clearly not on the same level in terms of strength. The Bulls are a perfectly balanced team. Each player fulfills their role, with a clear division of labor, and every player fights hard. In stark contrast, the Heat's disorganized play was glaringly obvious.

Even in terms of individual skills, the performance of the Heat's Big Three in this game was unsatisfactory.

In Bosh's debut with the Heat, he scored only 8 points and grabbed 8 rebounds on 3 of 11 shooting, leaving him completely impressed by Garnett's defense.

James and Wade also scored only 21 and 17 points respectively. Both their scoring efficiency and shooting percentages were much lower than their usual standards. While James scored a bit more, he committed 8 turnovers, more than half of which were caused by traveling violations.

As the commentator said at the end of the game, the Heat's Big Three still have a long way to go before they can become a true team. Whether the Heat can pose a threat to the Bulls in the playoffs will depend entirely on their adaptability during the regular season and their ability to learn.

After the Bulls crushed the Heat's Big Three and won their season opener, many anxious Chicago fans let out a sigh of relief.

This is the Bulls' domain, and no group of misfits can shake it!

The Bulls had a strong start and then went on a winning streak.

On October 30th, after returning home, they defeated the Detroit Pistons 110-91.

By the 2010-11 season, the Pistons had completely become a weak team. Although Hamilton and Prince were still on the roster, and Ben Wallace had returned to the Pistons this season, the era of the Pistons' "Fab Five" was over.

The Bulls' home court was also packed for this game, not because the Pistons' strength attracted the Bulls' fans, but simply because it was the first game at the Bulls' home court, and the team would be celebrating the official delivery of last season's championship rings before the game.

Although this scene had become a tradition for the Bulls in the past two years, many fans still eagerly anticipated witnessing this moment firsthand. After all, the three consecutive championship dynasties still hold a special kind of gold content, something different from their previous two championships.

The Bulls defeated the Pistons and then went on to beat the Portland Trail Blazers and New York Knicks.

After several games, the match between the Bulls and Knicks turned out to be the closest one in terms of score, with the Bulls winning 120-114 in a 6-point victory on the road.

The Knicks, in the new season, are much stronger than before. The main reason for this is the addition of the "Little Lord," Amar'e Stoudemire.

With Derrick Rose already on the team, adding Stoudemire greatly increased their strength.

In this game, both Stoudemire and Rose caused significant problems for the Bulls' defense, especially Rose. The 2010-11 season was Rose's year. He averaged 25 points, 4 rebounds, and 7.7 assists per game, and was named the MVP of the regular season, becoming the youngest MVP in NBA history. His future looked incredibly bright.

Rose had a clear speed advantage over Curry, whose defensive ability was average at best, and Curry simply couldn't keep up with Rose. He had no trouble handling any burst of acceleration from him.

Rose's aggressive style of play, daring to drive hard, attack the paint, and leap into the crowd for the dunk, also made things difficult for Garnett. As the saying goes, even if the master strikes with random shots, Garnett's defensive experience couldn't prevent him from committing fouls, especially when dealing with another strong opponent like Stoudemire.

Of course, it's undeniable that the Knicks' ability to compete with the Bulls up until this point wasn't due to their strength being so overwhelming that even the Bulls couldn't handle them. After all, in recent years, the Knicks had always been the losers in the Eastern Conference and a strong contender for the league's top draft pick. Even with Stoudemire's addition, they still weren't fully taken seriously.

This game with the Bulls could be seen as a signal for the Knicks, making many realize that with Rose and Stoudemire, the New York Knicks could already be considered a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference.

However, compared to the opponent the Bulls would face in the fifth game of the regular season, the Knicks were not as strong, because the Bulls' opponent in the fifth game was the Boston Celtics.

The Green Army didn't make any standout moves in recruiting this summer, but they successfully renewed Pierce's contract and kept the team's original lineup, which was already a big success in itself.

The Celtics themselves are a younger team. Among the starting five, only Pierce is older. The other four—Durant, Rondo, Millsap, and center Al Jefferson—are all under 25 and have plenty of room for growth and potential.

While many of these players have not yet reached their peak, the Celtics are already strong enough, and it's easy to imagine how powerful this team will become in the future.

The game between the Green Army and the Bulls was a classic showdown between Wang Chong and Durant.

Although both the basic skill values and defensive badges were already quite high, Wang Chong still found that using defense to suppress Durant, as he had done in previous seasons, was becoming increasingly less effective.

As one of the top scorers in NBA history, Durant not only has excellent offensive skills but also a high basketball IQ. After clearly realizing that Wang Chong's static talent was not inferior to his, Durant learned to use other methods, including pick-and-roll screens from his teammates and some offensive strategies that didn't require height or wingspan to score.

In this game, Wang Chong scored 37 points, the highest in the game, while Durant, not wanting to fall behind, scored 35 points, almost matching him.

Of course, this had something to do with Wang Chong not being fully serious. There are two more significant differences between Wang Chong and Durant in terms of individual skills. One is physical strength. As a top scorer, Durant's biggest problem is his lack of physical fitness. This results in him lacking the explosive scoring power compared to players like Kobe and James.

The second is three-point shooting ability.

Although Durant has a career three-point shooting percentage close to 40%, which is quite accurate for an outside player, there's still a significant gap when compared to the best three-point shooters like Curry, Thompson, and Ray Allen. Specifically, it should be the difference between a three-point shooting ability value of 92 and 99.98.

Wang Chong successfully passed the enhancement module and boosted his three-point shooting ability to 98, which is much more accurate than Durant's three-point shooting.

In these two aspects, Wang Chong is destined to surpass Durant in terms of explosiveness and durability.

As for the reason why Wang Chong didn't need to take Durant seriously in their matchup, it's due to the Bulls' strong lineup.

Across five positions, the Bulls have the advantage in four of them: Curry vs. Rondo, Wang Chong vs. Durant, Garnett vs. Millsap, Gasol vs. Jefferson. All are favorable matchups, and even on the bench, the Bulls have a huge advantage.

At the same time, the Celtics' head coach is still Doc Rivers, known as the "Chicken Soup Coach."

This doesn't mean that the "Chicken Soup Coach" isn't a good coach. A truly powerful coach should be like Rivers, someone who can convince players to run as hard as they can with an inspirational speech.

But it has to be said that Rivers' tactical ability and in-game adaptability are not very good. As a coach who has lost more series deciders in NBA history, Rivers' level of coaching is truly worrying.

Therefore, it's almost impossible to expect the Celtics, with their disadvantageous lineup, to come up with powerful tactics to reverse the situation.

The Bulls also won the game 112-105.

Unknowingly, the Bulls had earned five consecutive victories to start the new season. They were in excellent form and were deserving of being a dynasty team that had won three consecutive championships. Furthermore, unlike other dynasty teams, the Bulls were alternating between old and new players. Garnett and Billups, with their veteran experience, and the younger generation—Wang Chong, Curry, and Gasol—were full of energy and had great potential for growth.

At least in Wang Chong's opinion, the current Bulls team was almost perfect. If there was any flaw, it was that both starting point guards were point guards, even though both Curry and Billups were standard combo guards. Wang Chong could play point guard or shooting guard, but his height of 1.91 meters was a bit short for the shooting guard position.

Additionally, Curry had not fully grown yet, which was another deficiency. Curry hadn't suffered an ankle injury, which was good news, but he still hadn't shown his peak form, not even as the second offensive option on the team. He could contribute over 20 points per game, but Wang Chong knew very well that Curry's future achievements would be much greater than that.

In the November schedule, the Bulls maintained a strong level of competition, winning 14 out of 15 games and achieving a 14-1 record, leading the league.

The Bulls' record remained at the top of the league, which was no surprise. As long as they stayed healthy, they were extremely

strong on the court.

In 15 games, Wang Chong averaged 29 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists per game, and was undoubtedly named Eastern Conference Player of the Month for November.

It's worth mentioning that this was the first time in recent years that Wang Chong had averaged less than 30 points per game in the first month of the new season.

But this doesn't mean Wang Chong's scoring ability had diminished. The main reason for his reduced average was that the Bulls had too many offensive weapons.

Not to mention Billups, the former Big Three member of the Bulls, who had also reduced his scoring average to 15 points and 5 assists per game. Garnett's stats for the new season so far were only 12.8 points and 8.6 rebounds.

However, as a result, the personal stats of Curry and Gasol had improved.

Curry, who averaged 20 points per game last season, averaged 21.4 points per game in November, while Gasol contributed 14 points and 9 rebounds.

This doesn't even count the strength of the Bulls' bench.

Many people thought O'Neal joined the Bulls with a minimum salary to win a championship. They never expected that O'Neal, who had been relegated to the bench, could still exert strong dominance.

With only about 15 minutes of play, O'Neal could contribute 8 points and 4 rebounds, shooting nearly 70%, making him the most stable and powerful scorer on the Bulls' bench.

Along with Marcus Thornton and Danny Green, the Bulls' bench had become a true force in the league.

The Bulls were clearly strong and, with no shortage of scoring, Garnett had basically given up on the offensive side, dedicating himself entirely to defense. This allowed Garnett, whose explosive power had diminished after the injury, to still reach a defensive level that hadn't significantly dropped after the serious injury.

As for Garnett, he still averaged around 13 points per game despite not focusing on offense. After all, the base was there, and the Bulls' current tactics were primarily pick-and-roll strategies. Garnett was the player who helped Curry and Wang Chong the most in pick-and-roll situations, so he had plenty of opportunities to pass and smoothly score the ball.

The Bulls, with three consecutive championships, continued to dominate in the new season, just as many had expected.

However, before the season started, the Miami Heat, which had openly challenged the Bulls and was considered the most likely team to stop the Bulls' dynasty, clearly encountered some minor problems in the first month of the new season.

The Heat's main issue still lies in the distribution of ball control among the Big Three.

Before the Big Three came together, whether it was James, Wade, or Bosh, each of them was the absolute number one core of their respective teams and the focal point of their offensive strategies. Now that the three of them had suddenly joined forces, it became a matter of who was the number one player, and that question could be debated for a long time.

Bosh was clearly the worst among the three, so he undoubtedly was the weakest player. He was averaging only 16 points and 8 rebounds per game, compared to the 24+10 he averaged last season. His performance was vastly different.

Although James and Wade chose to share the ball equally, with a tacit understanding to resolve the ball distribution problem, they still felt like they were playing independently on the court. The offense was completely separated from the team's overall tactics, and the team's tactics were entirely disorganized.

This led to the Heat losing many games they shouldn't have lost.

By the end of November, the Heat's record was only 9 wins and 8 losses, with a winning percentage of 53%. This was barely over half, and much lower than competing with the Bulls. This record placed them fifth in the Eastern Conference, behind the Bulls, Magic, Celtics, and Knicks.

"It's disappointing. If the Heat had been in such a competitive state, they wouldn't need the Bulls. The best teams in the Eastern Conference could easily handle them in the playoffs. James and Wade need to find a way to resolve their tactical issues. As for winning purely with individual skills, it definitely won't take them far."

"Now I can understand the dismissive expression Wang Chong had when he was interviewed earlier. In fact, at least the Heat are not even worthy of being the Bulls' opponents."
