Well, let's take a brief look at Chicago. Chicago is located in Illinois in the midwest of the United States, facing Lake Michigan, one of the magnificent five lakes in North America. It is one of the famous international financial centers and the third most populous city in the United States (after new york and LA). Common nicknames of Chicago are "windy city" and "Chicago city", which is a world-famous tourist attraction.
Anyway, those things in the history of the team, let's go.
1966-67 season, Chicago Bulls set up a team. Because the animal husbandry in Chicago is very developed, the professional football team and the professional baseball team in the city have their own teams named after animals, so "Bull" has become the team name of the Chicago professional basketball team. Chicago Bulls, who just joined the NBA, defeated the St. Louis Hawks in June 1966+ 10/5, and won the first victory in the team's history. This season, Coach Cole won the Coach Award of the Year in NBA, and Guy Rogers won the NBA Assistant King with 1 1.2 assists per game, ranking first in the team with 18.0 points per game. Then Guy Rogers will be traded for Flynn Robinson and two future draft picks for next season. Ironically, at the beginning of the season, he will be traded 1 win 15, and finally barely enter the playoffs.
In the following seasons (1968- 1975), the performance of the team has been improving, just because there are two mountains in front of it: the Lakers and the Bucks. In the 75-76 season after the retirement of several generals, the team played the worst record of 24 wins and 58 losses. After that, I was in an awkward position. 1980-8 1 during the season, the bulls moved to the central region, making room for the expansion team Dallas Mavericks in the central and western regions. Although there are benefits after changing the division of labor, the team has not achieved ideal results.
Fortunately, in the draft of 1984, with the help of the pioneers, they got the strongest patriarch in the history of the team. Since then, the Bulls have become ceo, married Bai and reached the peak of their lives.
1984-85 season, Michael Jordan entered the starting lineup of the Bulls as soon as he joined the team, and began to rewrite the record of the Bulls, and the team's record increased to 38 wins and 44 losses. 1985 February 12, Jordan scored 49 points against the pistons and won the rookie of the year award at the end of the season. Jordan averaged 28.2 points per game throughout the season, ranking third in the league after Bernard King of Knicks averaged 32.9 points per game and Larry Bird of Celtics averaged 28.7 points per game. Jordan helped the Bulls return to the playoffs for the first time since 198 1, but the Bulls lost to the Bucks in the first series.
However, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and the old man has to wait for his own Robin. In the NBA draft of 1987, the Bulls selected Auden Bolinis with the No.8 draft pick, Horace Grant with the No.0 draft pick, and then exchanged Auden Porini and the draft pick for Scott Pippen from seattle supersonics. Then in the 1989-90 season, Phil Jackson replaced Collins as the head coach of the Bulls. Under Jackson's command, the bulls began to run in and easily achieved a record of 55 wins and 27 losses. From 1989 to 1 1, the Bulls won 15 consecutive home games, setting a club record, and the team also won the highest eight-game winning streak in the team's history. The Bulls performed steadily in the middle of the season, and Jordan and Pippen were selected for the All-Star team together. After the All-Star Game, the Bulls played an impressive 27-8 outcome, including two nine-game winning streak. In the first two rounds of the playoffs, they passed easily and eliminated the Bucks and the 76ers. However, in the Eastern Conference finals, he lost to the Pistons for 7 games and missed the finals. Although the legacy, but the lineup is complete, the next story is known to everyone.
Team history is the sixth champion, the best team history record that has been refreshed countless times, and almost all personal records of the team are inseparable from the old man.
However, all things must come to an end.
1998, the famous Jordan bravely retired and bid farewell to basketball for the second time. Scott Pippen, dennis rodman, Luc Longley, Tony kukoc and other senior officials also left the Bulls one after another, and the Bull Dynasty began to decline, and the NBA entered the post-Bull era. After 1998, the Bulls began to rebuild on a large scale, and successively welcomed the top draft signings Elton Brand, Jalen Rose, jay williams and Danny Marchal. But elton brand was the only one of these players who became a star and switched to another team. Everyone else became nobody. However, with the growth of young players such as Ben Gordon and Kirk Hinrich, and the joining of Ben Wallace, the Bulls revived in 2005.
In the 2004-05 season, the Bulls won the fourth seed with 45 wins and 37 losses and advanced to the playoffs. Although the Bulls won the first two games with 103-94 and13-103, they were eliminated 2-4 by the Washington Wizards. In the 2005-06 season, the Bulls reached the playoffs again with a winning percentage of 4 1 and a loss of 4 1, and were finally eliminated by Miami Heat 2-4 again. In the 2006-07 season, the Bulls won 49 and lost 33 in the regular season, and advanced to the playoffs for three consecutive years. In the first round of the playoffs, he met the defending Miami Heat and finally advanced with a straight sweep. The second round was eliminated by Detroit Pistons 2-4, stopping the Eastern Conference semifinals. In 2008, the Bulls traded Ben Wallace for Dean Gooden and Larry Hughes, and were lucky enough to win the No.1 pick Derek Ross. On June 26th, 2008, Chicago Bulls got the signing right of rookie Omar Acic from Portland Trailblazers through a tripartite transaction.
Next is the rose moment.
Leading the team to the first place in the regular season twice, an MVP and an Eastern Conference decision, all these are the achievements of a 22-year-old child. Bulls fans began to go crazy, and they believed that the second savior was coming. However, contrary to expectations, he fell, and repeated injuries made the team give up on him. No matter where Ross is next season, I hope he can bloom again. Then his younger brother took the lead, but it seems that this younger brother is not in the future map of the team. He was sent away this summer and replaced by several potential newcomers.
No matter what the future bull is, it is now one of the most brilliant teams in the history of the league.
