All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

"I really just want to hit the iron ()"

tired!

tired!

tired!

In the Airline Center Arena, looking at the timer that has reached zero, the final score of 102 to 103, and the [Nirvana] badge shining in my mind...

While enjoying the cheers of nearly 20,000 fans at the scene, Su Feng was in a daze and could hardly remember the last time he felt like his body was being hollowed out like this.

Oh yes...

It seems like it was still a month ago when I was studying English with Britney all night long.

It is said that those who change the world line without authorization will inevitably suffer punishment from the world line...

There is no doubt that on the night of May 21, Su Feng, who changed the entire NBA beyond recognition, had tasted the "evil consequences" planted by himself for the first time.

However, for Su Feng, who has rich experience in being beaten...

Such "evil consequences"...

Don't tell me, he quite likes Cha.

At the scene, after Su Feng gave the Celtics that fatal blow, the Celtic players who failed to create a miracle that night were in low spirits.

Including Duncan, most Celtics players chose to quietly exit the game.

On the Raptors bench, when the coaches of the two teams shook hands and hugged after the game, after Celtics coach Miller Carr squeezed his hands red in "retaliation", David shook his fat face. Si is more relaxed than ever before.

Especially after looking at each other and smiling at Su Feng, who had just celebrated the victory with his teammates.

"Now, we're invincible in this series."

Holding his fists and looking at the dome of the Airline Center Arena with the 9899 championship flag hanging in the distance, Davis thought silently to himself.

There is something to say...

That is to say, Davis was just thinking in his heart at this time. Otherwise, once his words were heard by others, everyone would inevitably think that he was crazy.

After all, the Raptors at this time had just won the G1 game with difficulty, but at this moment, Davis seemed to have determined that the Raptors had locked in a ticket to this year's finals.

…

After the game between the Celtics and the Raptors, at the press conference, Duncan, who scored 39 points, and 20 rebounds, and Su Feng, who scored 44 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 assists, became the first reporters to interview. Object.

And Duncan also made some wise words during the interview.

"Sue has overturned everything I learned about physics in the textbooks, and I think we can only hire witches to deal with him now."

Many years later, Duncan's comments to Su Feng were translated by many Rabbit netizens as only magic can fight against magic.

In an interview, Su Feng said that compared to a certain MVP player who only canvasses votes all day long, Duncan is the best inside player in the NBA in his mind.

Tsk...

To be honest, O'Neal feels quite aggrieved about the fact that he has been taking the blame lately.

However, no matter how aggrieved he was, O'Neal had to lead his Lakers over the Trail Blazers first.

On May 22, just as people were talking about Su Feng's great buzzer beater the day before, the Lakers also encountered a tenacious blocker from the Trail Blazers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

In Su Feng's previous life, many people said that if it weren't for Stern's favoritism, the OK dynasty would probably have ended before it even started.

And although there is no if in history, it has to be said that the Trail Blazers, who have accumulated a large number of human shields in the interior, are indeed one of the few teams in the current league that can drive O'Neal crazy, except for the Raptors who have found a different approach.

In Su Feng's original time and space, in seven games with the Trail Blazers, O'Neal averaged only 25.3 points, 12.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.

His overall numbers were far lower than his previous and subsequent performances in the Finals.

The Blazers' interior players, led by Sabonis, used their broad chests and arms to prove to the world that Paul Allen's burning of a lot of money was not without reward.

Because judging from the entire OK Dynasty period, even the future Kings who will use offense to attack have never restricted O'Neal as well as the Trail Blazers in the 9900 season.

ha?

You said O'Neal's average of "25+12" per game is not a good restriction?

Ugh...

Being able to prevent the top sharks from averaging only 17.4 shots per game and only scoring 25 points per game. If this is not a good restriction, then take a look at those "corpses" that O'Neal hammered. ?

In this life, because in the PY trade with the Trail Blazers, the Raptors sent two inside players with rich experience in cutting sharks to Portland, so in the G1 game with the Trail Blazers, O'Neal hardly played well. Depressed.

No way...

Because the Blazers have so many people inside, the Blazers really don't care about sending O'Neal to the free throw line a few more times.

In addition, in this life, Mr. Pi did not experience the serious injury at the end of his career, which resulted in his current state being maintained quite well...

As a result, the little brother O'Neal has always trusted the most...

Kobe also struggled in this game.

The game between the two teams lasted until double overtime before the winner was decided.

In the end, Jerry West's masterstroke in the draft that year, Lewis, became the X factor that determined the outcome.

In the second overtime between the two teams, Lewis hit three key three-pointers for the Lakers, successfully helping the Lakers win the G1 game of the Western Conference Finals with a 4-point advantage.

But after the game, just when Kobe wanted to share with Su Feng that they successfully won the Western Conference Finals G1 and were one step closer to successfully meeting Lower Merion...

"Look at this guy! I remember how many three-and-done shots someone made when they first played in the playoffs?"

"Beep, beep, beep!"

In Los Angeles, after Kobe returned home angrily, looking at her fiancé, Vanessa almost thought Kobe had been robbed on his way home.

On the other side, after successfully piercing Kobe's glass heart, Su Feng looked back at Xiao Yao who was playing PS with him and said: "Allen told me today that he will come to Toronto tomorrow."

Allen?

Allen Iverson?

For the young Yao, although he has seen Brother Feng's terrible connections more than once, when he learned that his teammate next season, the current boss of the 76ers Iverson, was coming to Toronto, the young Yao Yao was still a little nervous.

"He treated me to dinner when I was training in Philadelphia." Xiao Yao said while controlling the controller to beat Su Feng's character on the TV screen.

"Well, he said that when he came to Toronto this time, he also wanted to see you again." Su Feng said after being knocked out by Xiao Yao again.

If Su Feng remembers correctly, in the original world line, Yao Ming and Iverson had always had a good personal relationship.

Since both of them belong to the Reebok camp, when Yao Ming participated in the All-Star Game in the future, there were famous scenes of Kobe giving Yao Ming a shoulder squeeze, Iverson cheering Yao Ming, and Duncan asking Yao Ming to jump the ball.

In addition, when Yao Ming was elected to the Hall of Fame, he complained about Iverson, which also shows that the relationship between the two is extraordinary.

However, in this life, the reason why Iverson has a good impression of young Yao...

Then Su Feng really had to stand up and "get beaten".

Because of the friendship he had with Su Feng in his early years, Iverson was particularly concerned about Yao, who was about to join the Philadelphia Gang (Note 1) next season.

Coupled with Xiao Yao's honest and honest face and tall body, Iverson felt an unprecedented sense of security when he first met him...

Therefore, Su Feng has not been too worried about whether Xiao Yao can successfully integrate into the Philadelphia gang.

Even now that little Yao has not played in an NBA game, the image of "Boss Ai" has automatically appeared in Su Feng's mind.

Well, wouldn't Iverson go to Toronto to visit his lovely giant partner in person?

However, in the view of young Yao, Iverson's visit to Toronto was not just to visit him.

Because as early as the last time he had dinner with Iverson, Xiao Yao discovered from Iverson's words and deeds the brotherhood between Iverson and Su Feng that transcended national boundaries.

…

On the 23rd, according to the Eastern Conference Finals schedule, the Raptors will face the Celtics in a second match tonight.

In the morning, during a combat meeting within the coaching staff, the young D'Antoni was taught another lesson by Davis.

At that time, D'Antoni gave Davis a 33-page report on the problems exposed by the Raptors in the G1 game.

However, who would have thought that Davis not only understood everything before D'Antoni...

And he also boldly put forward the conjecture that the Raptors have basically secured victory in this round of Eastern Conference finals.

"John, I don't mean to offend you, but..." Looking at Davis who looked confident, D'Antoni always felt that Davis was a little too optimistic.

"But? No big but, Mike.

Barring the end of the world, we will win this series. "Patting D'Antoni on the shoulder, Davis said confidently.

As the saying goes, pay attention to your opponents tactically and despise them strategically.

In fact, as the controller of this Raptors, after the difficult G1 battle with the Celtics, Davis didn't know that this year's Celtics' overall strength is not inferior to the Raptors?

First of all, after the G1 game, the Celtics paid more attention to three-pointers than last year. They not only made full use of Ray Allen's ability to stretch space for players such as Duncan and Marbury during the game;

Secondly, Duncan's absolute advantage when facing O'Neal Jr. and Big Ben was also fully demonstrated.

In the regular season, McGrady, who was selected to the second team of the All-Defensive Team this year, has exposed his weakness of having a too high center of gravity when facing defenders like Francis who are good at breakthroughs.

Therefore, it can be said that throughout the G1 game, tactically, the Raptors were suppressed by the Celtics.

As a famous coach who grew up under Su Feng's painstaking cultivation, Davis's greatest advantage is that he is good at learning.

So shortly after the G1 game, Davis had already found a good way to break the game from the problems exposed by the Raptors.

Moreover, in Davis' view, the Raptors' tactics in the G1 game were not without merit.

Because after this G1 game with the Celtics, it can even be said that even if the Raptors lose the G1 game, they have won the most critical and most valuable part of this series... ..

——Physical fitness.

In the entire G1 game, except for Su Feng who played 48 minutes, Kamben and others all played about 30 minutes.

In contrast, the Celtics, who had just fought the Pacers for six games, in order to maintain pressure on the Raptors during the game, the playing time of major players such as Duncan, Marbury, and Ray Allen was evenly increased. More than 40 minutes.

Although Auerbach has learned from last year's failure, as Davis said to D'Antoni in Game 1...

Su Feng is the Raptors' real advantage when facing the Celtics.

Therefore, the further this series goes, the more favorable the result will be to the Raptors.

And this was the safest way that Davis could think of to get tickets to the finals shortly after watching the first quarter of the G1 game.

In Su Feng's previous life, whether in the series with the Thunder or the series with the Mosaic, Steve Kerr never wavered in his belief in nine-to-ten-man rotation. This is because Kerr knows that physical fitness is the key to a round. importance in the series.

Unlike the NCAA, since the NBA series is a long contest, the losses and passivity in one or two games will not affect the final outcome of the series to a large extent.

Compared with the Philadelphia gang that needed to be defeated, today's Raptors have long since transformed from dragon slayers to evil dragons.

Therefore, avoiding surprises in this series is the key that Davis needs to consider when playing against Auerbach.

"In the G2 game, I plan to start Steve and Vince on the bench. Do you have any objections?"

In the war conference room, looking at his "Wolong" and "Fengxiao", Davis said calmly.

After hearing this, after looking at Rivers for a few seconds, neither D'Antoni nor Rivers raised any objection.

“Vince’s defensive efficiency against Ray is not as high as Tracy’s.

In addition, in the G1 battle, neither Tracy nor Steve could restrict Stephen's performance.

Therefore, in my opinion, letting Vince go on the bench can not only further increase our offensive firepower on the bench, but also limit the Celtics' personnel rotation. "

Although neither "Wolong" nor "Fengchu" questioned their formation, as a wise "lord", Davis still explained his tactical intentions to them.

After listening to Davis's intentions, both D'Antoni and Rivers felt that letting Carter go as a substitute was a quick move.

Because in the G1 game, Ray Allen's ghostly movement made the Raptors extremely annoyed when dealing with him.

But there is only one Su Feng.

Therefore, it is indeed wonderful to let McGrady, who has a better defense, take care of Ray Allen.

"That's great. In this way, when Carter is responsible for leading the bench, we can let Su return to the bench to rest. I have to say, John, your small personnel change has made our situation brighter at once. Get up."

In the strategy conference room, after listening to Davis' game-breaking strategy, Rivers also flattered him immediately.

However, Rivers' flattery is destined to be slapped on the horse's head.

because......

Who said that Davis was considering letting Su Feng rest?

This morning, after meeting Su Feng, Davis was convinced that Su Feng's physical strength had recovered to at least 99%.

So let Su Feng rest?

Doesn't exist...

"But if Su is not allowed to rest, I'm worried..." Looking at Davis who kept shaking his head, Rivers, who was trying to prove himself in front of D'Antoni, gave his own point of view.

However, before he could finish speaking, Davis interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"I know what you are worried about, but that won't happen anymore because the playoffs are not a one-game system."

For Davis, who relied on Su Feng's physical ability to complete the great achievements of the Black Eight Bulls, he knows very well that in terms of the speed of physical recovery, in the current league, only the No. 8 in Los Angeles can barely compete with Su Feng. war.

Therefore, after the G1 game, Davis did not intend to change his thinking on using Su Feng.

In addition, in Davis' view, one Carter is not enough to make Auerbach change his personnel rotation like he did in the G1 game.

However, adding Su Feng...

Then the situation would be completely different.

And this is why Davis firmly believes that the Raptors have booked tickets to the finals in advance.

Because if this round of playoffs continues, it is destined to be a trade-off.

However, after Davis said all his thoughts, D'Antoni and Rivers felt that Davis seemed to have missed something...

"Don't worry, Tim in the G1 game is just an exception.

No matter how good a player is, he can't perform like that every game. "Looking at D'Antoni and Rivers, Davis smiled.

"Besides, they have Tim, don't we also have Su?" Davis added after a pause.

But this time, D'Antoni and Rivers completely knelt down in front of Davis' tactical board.

But......

Will everything really go as smoothly as Davis expected?

…

On the evening of the 23rd, Toronto’s Airline Center Arena.

Looking at his cousin appearing in the starting lineup tonight, on the Raptors' bench, Carter never expected that as the Maple King's right hand, he would be assigned to be the water dispenser keeper one day.

On the sidelines, Iverson, who was chatting happily with Yao, also became the scene that the cameramen actively captured.

After all, many American experts are now questioning whether Philadelphia dares to use their No. 1 pick to bet on the Chinese giant.

In front of the TV, because the G1 game between the Celtics and Raptors attracted huge attention, many fans are looking forward to this G2 game being as exciting as the G1 game.

As soon as the first quarter of the game started, the two teams fought for every inch of ground, which immediately reminded people of the classic battle on the 21st.

In the second quarter of the game, with Carter's appearance, the situation quietly changed completely from the G1 game.

Compared with the first game, in the second quarter, Su Feng, who was heavily attacked by the Celtics, left the stage he carefully set up to his right hand.

In the first six minutes of the second quarter, Carter scored 12 points and 4 rebounds.

And although Auerbach regained the Celtics' main force at a critical moment, just as Davis predicted, the Celtics' main force was soon consumed by the Raptors in the G1 game. The players have already shown their fatigue.

For the playoffs where the amount of exercise and consumption is greater, if a team wants to return to peak condition, authoritative sports experts have estimated that it will take at least 3 to 4 days.

Therefore, in both the first and second games, the Raptors, who used a mix of main players and substitutes, may lose one or two games in this series because of their decision, but, in contrast, they have also gained far more. Physical advantage over the Celtics.

At the end of the first half, to the despair of Celtic fans, the Raptors had extended their lead to more than 10 points.

After half-time, the score between the two teams was 45-57.

On TNT TV, Smith also said when reviewing the first half of the game: "In fact, the Raptors just played their normal level."

In the third quarter of the game, due to the decline in physical fitness, the Celtics' speed when retreating from defense further dropped.

The Raptors also seized the opportunity and took the opportunity to play a wave, scoring 18-30 in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Celtics withdrew their main force early.

The veteran Auerbach knows that the Celtics' pre-game policy of trying to regain home court advantage in Toronto has completely failed.

Rather than being further tortured by the Raptors, it is better to retain the Celtics' last hope.

In the end, it was 89 to 112. To the disappointment of neutral fans, the Celtics failed to play the same level as in G1 in this game, but to the joy of Raptors fans, they now lead 2-0. .

In the whole game, Su Feng and Duncan scored 22 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 21 points and 11 rebounds respectively.

Carter, who came off the bench, played his best game since the playoffs this year.

After the game, before being interviewed, Carter looked at his cousin, who scored 34 points, 11 rebounds, and 2 assists, and said with confusion: "Trish, am I more suitable to be a substitute?"

And looking at my cute cousin...

Maddie always felt that Carter would definitely be fooled to death by Su Feng in the future.

Oh, my dear cousin, this is the difference between you and me.

After all, they are all migrant workers working for the capitalists...

After this season, I'm going to set up a new job and be the number one worker.

As for you?

Let’s just be honest and work as a tool for Maple Emperor!

In Toronto, after the Raptors took a 2-0 lead, at the end of the G1 game, North American experts who thought the Celtics had a chance to defeat the Raptors all changed their minds.

In the words of this group of experts, it is only a matter of time before the Raptors advance to the finals.

And just when Rivers and D'Antoni were about to flatter Davis...

Compared with the self-confidence before the game, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net After the game, Davis said worriedly: "We should be ready to play seven games with the Celtics!"

Rivers, D'Antoni: "..."

Ah no...

Mr. Coach, how can you be so unpredictable?

To put it bluntly, is it really faster than flipping through a book?

"What? You want me to buy you champagne? I'll tell you Allen, don't even think about it!"

On the other hand, after the game, when Su Feng heard Iverson asking him to treat him to a drink of champagne, Su Feng immediately became anxious.

What an international joke!

The Raptors were almost eliminated by the Celtics...

You actually want to celebrate in advance?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

As a loyal reader of "The Stable Words Classic", Su Feng would never let the story of Istanbul happen to him even if he died.

But there was no champagne. In Su Feng's opinion, it was still possible to have a late night snack.

Touching Iverson's head, feeling the feeling that I haven't felt in a long time...

At this moment, the picture of the former Philadelphia Twins in the same frame seemed like a huge irony.

Fortunately, beside these two people, young Yao also gave Pennsylvanians in desperate situations hope for the coming year.

The NBA playoffs continue.

In Philadelphia, on the morning of the 24th, after some careful consideration, Pat Kraus also picked up the phone in his hand.

"Mr. Rick, if possible, could you please consider us before renewing your contract with Detroit?"
