Chapter 212 My Championship Ring Will Be More Than Yours
After the preseason, the Suns let all the guys who got the training camp contract pack up.

On October 10th, the opening game of the 29-2008 NBA regular season is scheduled to start on this day. There is no game for the Suns on this day, and the opening game of the Suns will not be until the next day.

On October 10, the league arranged three games,
Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers,
Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks,
The Los Angeles Lakers host the Portland Trail Blazers.

Among them, the first game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers is the highlight. There is James, who the league intends to support as the league's top card, and the Big Three of the Celtics who have just won the championship. This appeal is absolutely full.

In the 2006-2007 season, James led the Cavaliers all the way through the Pistons' iron barrels and into the finals. They were ruthlessly swept by the Spurs and got the famous motto of Dumb Duncan: "The future is yours. "

Although this sentence has been ridiculed countless times, James, who was only 23 years old at the time, undoubtedly let the league see the future. People firmly believe that James will rule the league sooner or later and officially take the throne.

In the second year, James and the Cavaliers were ambitious and regrouped, planning to charge towards the O'Brien Cup again.

However, three old guys who are over 30 years old, and three old guys who have never been involved in a championship, got together for their feelings and their dreams. The biggest obstacle on the way to the championship.And this also largely contributed to James' decision to bring his talents to Miami in the future.

Therefore, it took a lot of thought for the league to beat the drums of the regular season with such a game.

It's just that this has nothing to do with Qian Duoduo, it has nothing to do with the Suns, their focus is on the Spurs,
For the Suns, this game is not just the first game of the regular season. They have just changed the team coach. Of course, Terry Porter attaches great importance to the first game he leads the team. He wants to start A good start, to prove my coaching ability, to prove that I can lead the team to victory, and to prove that I am at least better than my predecessor.

Learn about the previous Raiders.

Falling at the feet of the Spurs in the playoffs for two consecutive years, it was really aggrieved for the old players of the Suns, especially once, they were really close to defeating each other, but the goddess of luck still Standing on the other side.There are as many as 82 games in the regular season, and the season is long. For the players, as long as they can guarantee to enter the playoffs and qualify for the playoffs, a game is really just a game, which is not what the fans imagined. in so important.But against the Spurs, it really has special meaning.

It's like two children fighting. After being beaten several times, they would dream of hitting each other back once. Even if they can't do it head-on, it would be nice if they could hit each other with a stone from behind.

For Qian Duoduo, this is his first NBA game in the true sense. Compared with the regular season, the preseason is more or less like a child's play house, and the regular season is a game for adults.Children only share the fruits, and adults often win or lose in rounds.

He is a bit like a candidate who walks into the college entrance examination room and is about to face a big test that will determine his life. The previous NCAA games, Olympic games, and preseason games are just mock tests.

Anyway, he has never taken the college entrance examination, so he doesn't know what the college entrance examination is like. No, he took the college entrance examination in his previous life. The distant memories and the unbearable past, the anxiety of sitting in the examination room and the loss after walking out of the examination room, he Don't want to experience it again.But this time he has seriously reviewed and trained seriously, and he can be regarded as one of the most diligent students. He is about to step into the NBA examination room. He is calm in his heart. He thinks he can pass the test score.

Without him, because he opened the cheating device, he can steal the paper.This can't get a high score, who can get a high score?Is it possible that someone has opened a more powerful hook?
The day before the game against the Spurs, the Suns arrived in San Antonio. The team only arranged some simple defensive training. Terry Porter showed some defensive videos to everyone, emphasizing the importance of defense again.

"Last season, the reason why the Celtics won the championship was because their defense was good enough and their players played bloody enough on the court. I hope we can also inject defensive genes this season. Play hard on defense effort."

"In this league, we have to be good defensively. We don't necessarily need to be the best defensive team, but I think to win the championship, we have to have a top-five defense in the league. That's our team right now. What’s missing, what we need to change is to be successful.”

"I don't want to deliberately slow down our game and play a low-scoring game. We can still run and shoot, we can still play beautiful basketball, but we have to find some balance, so that the team is more balanced offensively and defensively. Some."

"Unless there is a very suitable opportunity, don't blindly make fast breaks or rush shots. We can switch to positional offense. Now we have players who are good at playing positional offense. Whether it is fast break or positional warfare, we will not lose to the league. The other teams are right. We can stop worrying about having to score 110 points in a game, and we don’t need to worry about having to complete an offense in 7 seconds."

"We have to add our defense to our offense. This is what we have been doing in training camp. We are building a complete defensive system. Although I haven't seen the effect yet, I have great confidence in it. .”

Terry Porter's voice echoed in the air, like a lecturer who was instilling chicken soup for the soul, waving his hands excitedly on the podium and spraying wildly flying saliva.

"Is everyone confident about this?" he growled.

"Have!"

The Suns players responded sparsely.

Terry Porter was obviously not satisfied with this, and he shouted again, "Do you have confidence in this?"

"Have!"

This time everyone's voices were a little more orderly and louder.

"Yes or no?" Terry Porter yelled again.

"Yes!" Well, everyone cooperated a little this time, and Potter reluctantly accepted the goods.

After watching the tape, the team watched the Celtics-Cavs game together.

There will be a grand awards ceremony before the game. NBA President David Stern handed over the O'Brien Cup, the league's highest honor, to Paul Pierce, the MVP of last season's finals. The championship banner was slowly raised again in the North Shore Garden Arena after 22 years.

"Hey, Duoduo, do you see that? This is the NBA championship ring." O'Neal stretched out his right hand to Qian Duoduo who was sitting beside him, flipping it triumphantly in front of his eyes, wearing a championship ring on it.

"I know you only have four championship rings, but..." Qian Duoduo said, he held back the last sentence and insisted on not saying, "But Kobe will have five championship rings, more than you." One is He didn't want to say, the second is that Kobe has not yet won the next two championships, and he still wants to grab the first one, maybe those two championships are his own.

So he changed his tune and said, "I will have more championship rings than you."

"Hahaha..." O'Neal patted Qian Duoduo on the shoulder, put his arms around him and said, "Yes, Duoduo, I appreciate you."
