CHICAGO — The first time is always the hardest. It was always going to be
weird for Luol Deng to play at the United Center for the first time as a
member of the other team.
Deng was excellent in his return to Chicago with the Miami Heat, totaling 15
points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists as the Beat pulled out a 96-84 win over the
franchise Deng spent the first nine-plus seasons of his career with.
“It felt weird, really strange,” Deng said after the game. “Something that
I didn’t think would happen. I thought I would play here for my entire
career, but it didn’t work out that way. Just definitely strange. A lot of
emotion and I’m glad it’s over. For me it was a tough game.”
During a timeout break in the first quarter, the Bulls played a tribute video
and Deng received a standing ovation from the United Center crowd.
Luol Deng 回归芝加哥公牛主场，令人不习惯的是，Deng是以身为热火队的一员造访。
在热火对上公牛一役，主场对上老东家一战，Deng缴出15分10篮板4助攻不错成绩；
终场热火以96比上84击败公牛。
赛后Deng表示对上老东家公牛队:"这感觉奇怪，真奇怪，有些事情，我没有想到会发生。
我想我在这里(芝加哥)打球直到整个职业生涯结束都会在这里，但它并没有发生。
只是肯定奇怪。很多感慨，我很高兴一切都结束了。对我来说，这是一场艰苦的比赛。
在比赛第一节结束暂停时，公牛队拨放了一段影片向Deng致敬，并接受联合中心所有的
观众起立鼓掌。

(补充)
2013年Deng季后赛受到脑膜炎所苦，在接受脊椎穿刺治疗后反而感染一连串的并发症
让他缺席公牛季后赛第二轮赛事，最严重时Deng更曾经游走于死亡边缘。
