All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Chapter 170 The biggest “rumor” in history

Just as Su Feng expected at halftime, he seemed to counterattack ferociously throughout the third quarter, but in reality, after Towns...

On this night, Minnesota's pack of wolves gave up their resistance to their owners rubbing their dogs' heads angrily, just like the wolves who had just demolished their house.

The team finally stopped the team's losing streak in freezing weather in Minnesota.

Smith's old car failed to score his second three-pointer in the game until the end.

However, considering that he was not completely beaten by Marbury when he came off the bench, Su Feng still gave him a high score of 10 points after the game.

Remember, Kenny, I'm giving you 10 points now!

If I participate in a dunk contest in the future and you dare to give me 9 points, then I won’t have to make friends in the future.

You know, Su Feng doesn't have to rely on 9 points to make money. Isn't the purpose of playing hard to prevent himself from becoming that boring person?

Iverson scored 30 points in this game, plus 7 assists, 4 rebounds, and 2 steals, and his performance improved;

Su Feng made 7 of 17 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 18 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals. He was the number one contributor to the 76ers' victory in this game.

Garnett is really tired.

This "little wolf king" really doesn't even have the strength to do push-ups after the game...

In this game, Garnett and Su Feng's statistics were almost identical.

In the third quarter, his physical fitness declined and he gradually lost his accuracy. He made 7 of 17 shots and 4 of 4 free throws in the game, scoring 18 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 steal.

The reason why Garnett failed to reach double figures in rebounds was because Su Feng kept keeping him on the outside.

On this night, Garnett, who could only watch his teammates being bullied and unable to strike hard, could not help but lift the 810-pound hammer and hit it on his chest. What to do?

That night, he was like the fat fish in Los Angeles, powerful, lonely, cruel but helpless.

Marbury's performance was also affected by his teammates. In this game, this social young man only scored 17 points and 6 assists, and was suppressed by Iverson in terms of statistics.

After the game against the Timberwolves, the fans' voices for "Ai Feng" to win the Rookie of the Year award became louder and louder.

Poor Marbury, his name was crossed out again.

However, it is worth mentioning that the more fans appealed, the more "naughty" Stern became.

Because in a recent interview, Stern said that the league's award selection has always been "fair, open and impartial."

Many Philadelphia fans regard Stern's words as the league does not want "Ai Feng" to win the Rookie of the Year award together, and wants to leave some regrets for the "golden guns"...

Therefore, more and more Philadelphia fans have begun to write and call the league. They strongly protest against the NBA's behavior of "discriminating" against Su Feng because he is a Chinese player.

By the way, when I saw these reports before, Su Feng was really not happy about this group of fans in the United States.

Brother, is your reading comprehension different from mine...

Su Feng believes that as long as the 76ers can reach the playoffs this year, Stern will definitely award the Rookie of the Year award to himself and Iverson.

Because if Stern "discriminated" against himself, would he still let himself win the All-Star Game MVP together with Jordan?

The more he talks about "fairness, openness, and impartiality," the more it means that he is going to start operating behind the scenes.

In fact, as long as you know Stern, you will know that in addition to "dismantling teams" and suppressing dynasty teams, he is also a person who particularly likes to play "reunion after breaking the mirror" and "people can't be dismantled". The little old man who grows "Qiong Yao Terrier".

In Su Feng's previous life, in 2009, in order to reconcile OK, Stern asked O'Neal and Kobe to team up to lift the All-Star Game MVP trophy.

The same was true when Malone and Stockton shared the All-Star Game MVP in 1993.

And Kidd shared the Rookie of the Year award with Hill.

In short, if Stern would miss the joint award-winning gimmick of "Flower Planter Hero Rabbit" and "Mi Li Family Eagle", then he would not be David Stern, but Adam Silver.

"Hmm... It seems that I have to practice my strength again in the summer. It's worth trying to be an NBA insider!"

After the game, Su Feng thought to himself silently as he looked at the nearly two and a half iron points he had obtained.

For the team's victory, Su Feng is no longer the same person as before.

Now, he is willing to shoulder the team's defense including the power forward position!

But having said that, when mentioning a certain unit of measurement, Su Feng was both excited and...

A little uncomfortable.

The reason he felt uncomfortable was that after beating the Timberwolves, the 76ers had to fly to Chicago immediately to prepare to challenge the Bulls.

For the 76ers, who have just ended their losing streak, the difficulty of this back-to-back game can be imagined.

As for the reason for excitement and excitement...

That's naturally because Su Feng "misses" Qiao Pi.

Su Feng, who forged a "deep friendship" with Jordan at the All-Star Game, has been very concerned about Pippen, the senior.

for example:

Have you been offended by the recent reports that my defense is better than yours? How do you feel after Rodman's return? Have you paid back the $200,000 you owe Ewing and Uncle Mu...

Don't be surprised, as a young player who "respects the elderly and loves the young", Su Feng has always been concerned about the daily life and mental health of his seniors.

Back-to-back games with the Bulls were difficult to beat, but on the 14th, after the team flew to Chicago to rest for a night, Iverson and others were in better shape than Su Feng had imagined because they clocked out in the third quarter in Minnesota. Be good.

If Su Feng remembers correctly, in his previous life, in the next game against the Bulls, Iverson will once again prove to the world:

He, Allen Iverson, is the nemesis of this Bulls.

In Su Feng's previous life, if Mr. Pi hadn't come to the rescue in this game, the Bulls would have been killed by Iverson.

You know, Iverson was hit and scored 37 points, turning the Bulls' inside and outside circles upside down.

No way, just like the last time the 76ers defeated the Bulls, the Bulls' best weapon became a "self-destructing truck" when facing the 76ers.

Because the Bulls are trying to speed up, aren't they playing into the 76ers' hands?

A full-court press can restrain many teams, but it cannot restrain an attacker like Iverson.

Therefore, this is why Boss Joe hopes that the 76ers can secure seventh place in the Eastern Conference.

After all, in this era, there are only five games in the first round of the playoffs. If Jordan is not careful, the Bulls may really be dragged into a tough battle by the 76ers.

This is the most interesting thing about the "Beast Chess League". The 76ers have opponents they don't like to play, and the Bulls also have teams they don't want to meet in advance.

To put it bluntly, if the Bulls had a choice, Jordan would have kicked Rodman away...

In Su Feng's previous life, there were always people who boasted about how great the Bulls' bench was, but in fact, when playing against the 76ers, you asked Zen Master if he dared to let Steve Kerr stay on the court for a while.

There's also Longley and the Chief's group.

And speaking of this Bulls lineup, we have to mention the biggest rumor in Su Feng's previous NBA life, that is: Jordan's salary is not included in the Bulls' salary risk.

In Su Feng's previous life, there were many versions of this rumor. The most awesome version was spread by the first-generation Qiaobo:

Because the NBA is almost over, the owners of all teams in the league are begging Jordan to come back, and they have also guaranteed that after his comeback, his salary will not be included in the salary risk.

Wake up, where did the NBA come from with so many good people?

Feelings: Everyone joins forces to help you create a dynasty for the Bulls?

Apart from anything else, do you think people like Auerbach and Popovich will agree?

Believe it or not, if the team owner dared to agree, they would send the team owner to a mental hospital the next day.

In fact, there is only one truth.

That is, Jordan's salary has always been included in the Bulls' salary. Take this season as an example, the Bulls' total salary is as high as 58 million US dollars!

It is not difficult to crack this rumor. First, check Jordan's career salary and you will understand.

This season, Jordan's salary, which came back to play for less than half of the season, was US$3.85 million.

During the 1996 season with the Bulls, Jordan's salary was still $3.85 million.

So here comes the question.

When the Bulls fail to win the championship, do you think other teams will be kind enough to propose to the league not to include Jordan's salary in the salary cap to help the Bulls retain a championship-winning lineup?

It's possible for a team to be a jerk, but are all the other 28 NBA teams a jerk, hoping that Jordan will beat him to death?

You know, Jordan received "30 million+" annual salary in the last three consecutive seasons, which was in the last two seasons. As for Jordan's contract renewal in the last three consecutive seasons, it has been mentioned above, so I won't mention it for now.

As long as you know that the salary system of this era is completely different from that of the future, you can understand why the Bulls were able to sign Jordan for 30 million.

Before the labor negotiations of the season, there was no luxury tax or maximum salary in the NBA.

In the absence of luxury tax and maximum salary, in this era, bird rights can play a terrible role.

There is no luxury tax and no maximum salary. You can simply understand that as long as Leinsdorf wants to pay Jordan 50 million, it is his own business.

Because there are no restrictions, the Bird Rights can ignore the salary and help the Bulls complete the over-cap contract extension.

Behind Jordan's "30 million+" annual salary, in fact, in addition to Bulls owner Leinsdorf's stupid behavior of not accepting Jordan's two-year, 50 million contract extension, another major reason is the pressure from James Dolan.

Because when Jordan was negotiating with the Bulls, Dolan offered Jordan an annual salary of 27 million to recruit Jordan to New York.

Of course, because the Knicks' lineup was too luxurious at the time, Dolan's offer to Jordan was actually an offer consisting of an annual salary of 12 million and a commercial endorsement contract of 15 million.

Before the NBA improved its salary system, you couldn't judge many contracts in the 1990s from a future perspective.

Otherwise, Glenn Robinson signed a super-large contract in his rookie season. Wouldn't Robinson's salary be included in the Bucks' salary risk?

Ewing will receive a salary of US$20 million next season. Isn't it possible that Ewing's salary will not be included in the Knicks' salary?

If Jordan's salary really does not count towards the Bulls' salary cap, then Jordan would really kick Rodman away.

Because if you deduct Jordan's salary and Rodman's $9 million, the Bulls have room to sign a super center.

In Su Feng's previous life, after many people blew up this rumor, coupled with the misleading of some marketing accounts, many people believed in this rumor.

But in fact, the Bulls' last three consecutive lineups are far worse than you think.

Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman, the Bulls would not be able to play without any of these three.

Therefore, during the season, Jordan will once again demonstrate his emotional intelligence that he borrowed from God and will pay back later.

He first threatened the team to renew Phil Jackson's contract, then resolved the conflict between Rodman and the team, and then blocked the Bulls' plan to trade Pippen for McGrady.

And it is precisely for this reason that Jackson gave every Bulls player a tactical manual on the first day of the team's training camp during the season, and that manual said:

"The Last Dance".

Literal translation in Chinese: The last dance.

Therefore, this is also the reason why people generally believe that the Bulls in the first three consecutive games are stronger, but the Bulls in the last three consecutive games are greater.

Because the Bulls in the last three games can even make you forget Jordan's terrible character and Rodman's sordid private life... and cheer for the Bulls' victory.

Of course, because of Su Feng's appearance in this life, the trajectory of history has already quietly deviated from its trajectory...

On the 14th, when the 76ers were ready to go again, they came to the United Center. Now, no one dares to underestimate them anymore.

After more than half of the season, the reputation of Philadelphia's gangsters has already made the United States fearful.

As much as those "championship teams" love the 76ers, how much "pseudo-powerful teams" like the Bulls, Knicks, SuperSonics, and Jazz hate them.

It is worth mentioning that before the start of this game, Jordan repeatedly told Rodman to stop making those little moves that he shouldn't have.

Because NBC TV has temporarily adjusted its broadcast plan, this game between the Bulls and the 76ers at home will be broadcast live in most of North America.

Jordan, who finally got back on track, didn't want the Bulls to fall into a crisis of public opinion again because of Rodman.

"Pretend" must also "pretend" to be like a senior, and what I'm talking about is people like the great Michael Jordan.

You may not believe it, but if it weren't for the fact that the Bulls lost two more games in this life, which may have led to them being robbed of the top spot in the league by the Jazz, Jordan would have really wanted to give the 76ers a chance.

After all, letting the 76ers rank seventh in the Eastern Conference to help the Bulls defeat the Heat, in the eyes of the "old gangster", is the most beneficial playoff matchup for the Bulls.

rule? Win or lose?

For the strong, Michael Jordan only has championships in his eyes.

During the season when Pippen was away, in order to compete for the top spot in the league and ensure that the Bulls would get a favorable matchup in the playoffs, even if they beat the Spurs 27 times in the previous game, In the latter game against the Magic, Jordan still took 25 shots without changing his expression.

Since they are all "old gangsters", why do these trivial details matter to Jordan?

At the United Center, as the 76ers and Bulls finished warming up, under the watchful eyes of more than 20,000 Chicago fans, the big screen showed the starting lineups of the two teams tonight.

Bulls: Longley, Rodman, Pippen, Jordan, Harper.

76ers: Ratliff, Big Ben, Su Feng, Harris, Iverson.

When Longley and Ratliff jumped the ball in the center circle to start the game, the entire arena reached a climax in an instant.

The 76ers, who had successfully slaughtered the Wolves in Minnesota yesterday, had Ratliff take the lead in the team's first attack.

Iverson, with his gutter hair, passed the half court with a brisk pace.

The difference from the previous mutual traps is that neither Jordan nor Pippen tonight had any intention of making fun of the two 76ers rookies.

Harper faced off against Iverson. The defensive expert gritted his teeth and looked at the "183" in front of him. Inexplicably, before Iverson started to break through, Harper felt a little pain in his ankle... ..

On the flank, Pi Erye was even more miserable than Harper.

Because in order to give Pippen the motivation to kill himself (in fact, it was to further consume Pippen), Su Feng asked about Pi Er Ye's debt problem with concern before the game started.

then......

At this moment, perhaps the one in the better mood among the Bulls is Boss Joe, who won $13,000 last night.

Don't ask, the God of Basketball is also played by a human being.

The Bulls have been winning games in a row recently, so why don't they allow Jordan to have some fun off the court?

Iverson's attack broke through Harper's defense without using a cover.

Longley was too slow to make the save, and had no choice but to let Iverson make a jump shot one step ahead of the free throw line.

Swish——!

2 to 0!

Kenny Smith's refueling effect has become more and more obvious. This "answer" is regaining his style at the beginning of the season!

Although before the game, Su Feng predicted that the situation of this game would be 9-1, but now, it seems that the situation has become 8-2.

When retreating, Su Feng fist bumped with Iverson and said, "Allen, do you know why I am less and less afraid of this bull now?"

Iverson shook his head, looking confused.

"Because we have the "answer"!" Su Feng said with a smile.

Bang, bang!

After elbowing Su Feng twice on the waist, Iverson's motivation increased again on the court!

It was the Bulls' turn to attack. Looking at the 76ers' defensive posture, Jordan, who was tightly entangled by Su Feng, waved to his teammates. He was empty again...

Seeing this scene, "Zen Master" calmly nodded to Harper on the court. Being willful is the privilege "Zen Master" gave Jordan.

Triangle offense?

As long as Jordan is willing, "Zen Master" doesn't mind letting him play alone all night.

On the court, the defense that made Hardaway and his team uncomfortable was like a piece of tissue in front of Jordan.

Jordan in the last three games, even with his body hair, has his own fake moves.

Look, kid, this is how basketball is played.

After shaking Su Feng away in a cool way, Jordan completed a picturesque jump shot. UU read www.uukkanshu.net

When——!

Jordan: "..."

no......

F**K, the rim is poisonous, right?

Ben protected the rebound, and the 76ers immediately launched a transition attack.

Um......

The most annoying thing about the 76ers is that once they successfully defend you, they will run with you like crazy.

From the "golden double guns", Su Feng cut into the heart of the Bulls with lightning speed, and Iverson's pass was just right. In desperation, Pippen had no choice but to foul Su Feng with the ball. Feng immediately "hugged" him down.

Tonight, the second master is still working hard.

In Su Feng's previous life, Pippen this season was definitely one of the best seasons in his career.

It's a pity that in this life, because of Su Feng's appearance, this season has become one of the seasons that Pippen least wants to remember in the future.

Especially when I think of what Su Feng said to himself before the game, "If you don't have money to give to Patrick and Dikembe, I can lend it to you, I have more money"...

Pippen really wanted to kick Rodman to death.

Pippen felt bitter, Pippen didn't want to say...
