When it comes to the league's favorite team to rob the rich and the poor today, I believe everyone will want to dallas lone rangers. After losing consecutive games to the Orlando Magic and Oklahoma Thunder, fans were very disappointed with the Lone Rangers. As a result, they rebounded without warning, defeating the Philadelphia 76ers and Atlanta Hawks in succession, and winning quite a few, and it can only be said that the Lone Rangers are really a magical team.
This game to beat the Eagles, in fact, most of the game, both sides are in a stalemate, but the lone ranger in the last quarter suddenly exerted force to pull the point difference apart, and finally won two consecutive wins. Luca Doncic, who once again cut the triple-double data, is certainly the biggest contributor to the Lone Ranger, but his teammates around him also provide strong support to make the opponent invincible. Among them, Reggie Bullock shot 8 of 14, including 6 three-pointers, 22 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals, and when it came to the decisive moment of the game, Bullock also had a key three-pointer to help the Lone Ranger seal the victory. It should be known that Reggie Bullock hit 4 three-pointers against the 76ers and scored 20 points and 4 rebounds; the game against the Thunder, with a 50% shooting rate, cut 23 points, 8 rebounds and 3 steals, including 5 three-pointers. In other words, in the past three games, Reggie Bullock has scored 20+ points, and against the Magic he is slightly out of order, but the big victory over the Pacers, Bullock also scored 23 points, the last 5 times for the Lone Ranger, Reggie Bullock has scored 20+ in 4 games, which is really excellent.
As the 2013 first-round No. 25 rookie, Reggie Bullock was adrift early in his career, playing for the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns, but neither of them was reused. Reggie Bullock then moved to the Detroit Pistons, where he was average at first, until the 17-18 season, when Reggie Bullock got a chance to succeed, with accurate outside projection and tough defense, Reggie Bullock became a member of the starting lineup and averaged double figures per game for two consecutive years. However, in the second half of the 18-19 season, Reggie Bullock was sent to the Lakers, due to the absence of leBron James and other main players, Reggie Bullock did not get too many empty shooting opportunities, coupled with the lack of integration into the Lakers' tactical system, so the overall performance is relatively general.
Over the past two seasons, Reggie Bullock has moved to the New York Knicks, and he's clearly better. Last season, Reggie Bullock averaged 10.9 points and 3.4 rebounds per game, shooting more than 40 percent from the field and shooting more than 40 percent from three-point range. Coupled with his ability to be the Knicks' number one sapper on the defensive end, this excellent 3D player is self-evident about the Knicks' role and contribution. So last season, in the case of not being optimistic, the Knicks were able to reach the playoffs with a fourth-place result in the East, and it is clear that Reggie Bullock is also a big contributor.
So after the contract expired last summer, Reggie Bullock attracted a lot of interest from the team, and eventually he joined the Dallas Mavericks, and the two sides signed a three-year, $30 million contract. The lone ranger's thinking is very clear, the 30-year-old Reggie Bullock is in the current year, in this contract period, he should not have a significant decline, and Luka Doncic is the best ball-holding core in the entire league, with his attraction to the other side of the restraint, the teammates around him will not get less empty shooting opportunities. So it's not just Reggie Bullock, the Lone Ranger's offseason signing Sterling Brown and the successful contract extension of Hardaway Jr., all of whom are players with a steady projection threat.
However, at the beginning of the season, Reggie Bullock's performance was a bit disappointing, he did not find the rhythm and form at all, and he could not even shoot the empty three-pointer. To know that this period of time is so brave, but Reggie Bullock can only average 7.8 points and 3.4 rebounds per game this season, and the three-point shooting rate is just over 35%, which shows how bad his start is. Fortunately, since entering 2022, Reggie Bullock seems to have opened the second vein of Ren Dou, compared with the beginning of the season, it is almost like two people, many times it is called the real thigh of the team, the offensive and defensive ends are extremely reliable, the lone ranger record is also stable and rising, not only firmly occupies the fifth position in the West, the gap with the top four is not so large.
The outbreak of Reggie Bullock is still very helpful to the Lone Ranger. First of all, a number of the team's data related to three points are ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the league, especially after the long-term absence of Hardaway Jr. due to injury, which is even worse. At the critical moment, Reggie Bullock stood up, so that the opponent would not dare to rush to pack Doncic, and the lone ranger line had three points of rain, and the opponent would also be very difficult to deal with. On the other hand, Bullock's defense is really reliable, the Lone Ranger basically arranged for him to limit the opponent's main breakup, and the effect is quite good, in the past month, the Lone Ranger's defensive performance and efficiency can be the top of the league, which is unimaginable in the past. Reggie Bullock is really the Lone Ranger's heaviest signing in the offseason, and this is no longer a joke, his value is obvious to everyone.
