All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Chapter 884 Goodbye, Xiao Yao!

Compared with ten years ago, while various technologies were becoming increasingly sophisticated, Su Feng's fuel tank had indeed shrunk a lot.

However, through reasonable allocation of physical energy, Su Feng could still make the young warriors feel intimidated by him.

In this series, except for the G1 game where he only scored 14 points due to poor touch, James performed well in the G2 game and the first quarter of the G3 game and was always able to regain the field under Su Feng's defense.

Online, after the G2 game, James fans who were rarely able to be arrogant in front of the maple fans began to promote James' abnormal breakthrough ability in major forums.

But......

Is this really true?

Admittedly...

Peak James, no one can completely lock him down.

But don't forget, to this day, Su Feng is also the best defensive player in the NBA in the past 19 seasons in the eyes of fans.

In fact, in this series with the Warriors, Su Feng never thought that he would defend James the way he defended Jordan.

Therefore, not only will he not waste physical energy to restrict James from catching the ball...

He would even deliberately sell some flaws to Xiao Zhanzhan.

Unlike most defensive players who would rather give him a shot than a burst when facing James Jr. .

In this round of the series, Su Feng's defensive strategy against James was precisely to give sudden shots and not to shoot.

This......

It was also in the G1 game between the two teams that when James wanted to use some relatively easy scoring methods to attack, he lost his reason.

In the G2 game, James adjusted the game in time.

He began to rush toward death desperately.

Although judging from the results of the game, the Lakers did lose the G2 game with the Warriors.

But James, who had injured one thousand enemies and lost ten thousand to himself, had completely reached a point of no return.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the future cavalry battle, the warrior used this method to exhaust James to death.

This has nothing to do with James' personal ability.

It just has to do with the way he plays.

And what's more...

In this series, James still has to bear the heavy responsibility of increasing Su Feng's cost?

However, after all, this warrior is not the knight in Su Feng's memory.

Because in the Warriors formation, the Splash Brothers, Xiao Yao, and Butler can all share James' offensive pressure...

So even if this Lakers is the best team Su Feng has ever led...

Su Feng must give everything he has to give this Lakers more chances of winning!

Emmm.

In other words...

We all reached the Western Conference Finals!

Still planning?

On the sidelines, after stroking his hair with his hands, Su Feng made Pierce feel what it means to be "a boy crazy" as soon as he came into the second quarter of the game!

On the court, the Lakers attack.

On the outside, after successfully catching the ball, Su Feng changed his left hand to his right hand, and Su Feng opened the gap between him and Pierce.

What kind of opponent are you facing?

Just use whatever strategy you want.

Pierce is as old as ever, but if he wants to eat him from a low position with his plump American butt, even Su Feng has to pay a certain price.

However, if you are on the outside...

Uh-huh!

33 to 39!

At the Staples Center, nearly 20,000 Hu honeys were already drunk under Maple Emperor's handsome performance.

Judging from the speed of movement, Su Feng's speed when launching Cossover just now was not very fast.

But its unpredictable rhythm changes make you sigh...

Watching him play is like appreciating a work of art.

On TNT TV, Barkley couldn't help praising Su Feng and said: "If Michael had half the strength of Su, then I would probably have chosen to retire in 1990."

ESPN Sports, Pippen also lamented: "This is why Michael needs Scottie Pippen, but Sue doesn't."

This season, even the most pious Komi has to admit that Kobe's strength is declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, the Lakers' strength remains unshakable.

Although in the opinion of many experts, this is because the rise of Middleton and others has made the Lakers no longer need Kobe as much as before.

But when the Lakers do meet a team that can beat them in the Western Conference Finals...

People discovered it.

The reason why the Lakers are strong...

Mainly because Su Feng can infinitely increase the upper limit of this Lakers.

On the Lakers bench.

At this moment, Kobe seemed somewhat lonely.

Because since Su Feng joined the Lakers.

This was the first time that Kobe felt that he couldn't help Su Feng like before.

And as time continues to move backward.

Kobe knows...

Next season and the next season, the distance between him and Su Feng is destined to only grow further.

"What are you thinking about?" In the second quarter of the game, when Coach Lu asked for a timeout at the technical desk to prepare for switching back to the main lineup after the timeout, Su Feng asked, looking at Kobe who looked unhappy.

"Do you think my brother is too strong and it's too boring to cling to my lap and win all the time?" Su Feng, who understood Kobe's thoughts in just an instant, laughed.

Kobe: "..."

"Actually, back then, when I was holding your thigh and winning all the time (in high school), I also had this thought." Su Feng said while hugging Kobe.

"Huh?" Kobe turned his head to Su Feng curiously.

"You know, this series is so far.

This is the most enjoyable series I've ever had with you. "After a pause, Su Feng continued.

hiss!

Su thief, you can talk, can't you say more at once?

"Perhaps, the great basketball god Su Feng does not need insignificant helpers like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, or even Shaquille O'Neal.

but......

No Kobe Bryant.

There's no way he could have won five of the championships in the past six years. "Patting Kobe's shoulder, Su Feng said word by word.

At this moment, Su Feng did not lie to Kobe.

Because it's different from other people.

In this league, only Kobe can unleash Su Feng's full potential.

certainly.

The same is.

In this league, only Su Feng can tap into more of Kobe's potential.

Take this series with the Warriors as an example.

Kobe's scoring is indeed not as good as before.

But he is still 3 months away from turning 37, but he is helping the Lakers in a very un-Kobe way.

On TNT TV station, Barkley and O'Neal collapsed in tears in the studio almost at the same time.

Because to this day, Barkley still can't figure out why he only won one championship in the three years he held Su Feng's thigh.

But O'Neal can't understand...

Why was this Kobe not as willing to be a green leaf when he cooperated with him in the early years?

On the court, after the timeout, the game continues.

Putting on the bayonet and gritting his teeth, James scored another 9 points for the Warriors in the second half of the quarter.

Moreover, due to his unremitting defense, Su Feng, who scored 8 points for the Lakers in the first half of the second quarter, only scored 2 points in the second half of the quarter.

However, after halftime...

James felt that his body had been hollowed out.

Staples Center, the first half score of the two teams was 67 to 69.

Middleton and Bledsoe became the key players for the Lakers in the second half of the second quarter.

The former made 4 of 5 shots in the second quarter and scored 11 points including free throws.

The latter completed the exchange with Curry.

It's impossible for Curry to bow his head every game at the Staples Center.

This night, in the second quarter, Stephen Curry scored a total of 10 points for the Warriors.

But for the Lakers, Bledsoe also contributed 9 points to the Lakers in the second quarter.

In Su Feng's previous life, even if the defense was no longer a black hole, Curry was still afraid of players with strong individual breakthrough abilities.

And as for the reason...

Mainly because of Curry's wingspan that is almost as tall as his height.

As we all know, defensive players with longer wingspan not only have a wider defensive zone when defending frontally.

In addition, when the opponent forces you to hit or shoot against you, you can also use your wingspan to effectively interfere with offensive players.

But......

As for Curry’s wingspan of about 191 centimeters...

Not to mention frontal defense...

Even when he barely dunks, he is often blocked by the basket.

This night, when Curry was feeling good, Lue changed his game thinking and increased Bledsoe's playing time.

Because in Oracle's first two games, Curry, who is at the peak of his career, has proven that even the experienced Rondo can't completely restrict him.

Therefore, instead of thinking about how to guard Curry, in Coach Lu's opinion, why not send Bledsoe to compete with him?

You see, Curry scored 10 points.

But, looking back, didn't Bledsoe also score 9 points?

On the court, in the second half of the game, Coach Lu simply left Bledsoe on the court.

But this time, Curry was disgusted.

Because the Lakers' wings are too strong, Curry cannot always get a fill-in from his teammates like he does in normal games...

So throughout the third quarter, Curry had to rely on his own efforts to deal with Bledsoe, who suddenly wanted to poke 10,000 transparent holes in the Warriors.

On the sidelines, Van Gundy expressed strong condemnation for the Lakers' behavior of blatantly bullying elementary school students!

However, compared to the back and forth between Curry and Bledsoe on the court...

What worries Van Gundy even more is James' physical fitness.

In the third quarter, no matter which forward player James faces on the Lakers side.

The latter will lead James around on the court.

In desperation, in order to reduce the pressure on Zhanzhan's inside attack, Van Gundy had to increase Yao's playing time in the third quarter.

However, Yao Ming's situation is also not optimistic.

Because Xiaojia, in addition to defending desperately...

On the offensive end, he didn't give Yao Ming a chance to regain blood through defensive positioning and experience on the inside.

Someone may ask...

With Marc Gasol's weight, wouldn't beating him like this get tiring?

Um......

Of course you will be tired!

However, if García is tired, don’t the Lakers still have Jokic and Adams?

No bragging, no blackmail.

In the third quarter, if it weren't for Klay and Butler, the Warriors would have been able to survive.

The Lakers are even likely to seal the victory directly after the first three quarters.

no way.

After all, Universe Yong was not just blown away.

On the court, after the first three quarters, the score between the two teams was 93 to 98.

In the final quarter of the game, Van Gundy was filled with grief and anger when he saw James lying down and no longer wanting to stand up.

Because in this quarter, when James is no longer facing off against Su Feng...

Su Feng didn't even bother to move.

Often just find a corner and stand, and it will directly start the offensive mode of OB teammates.

And as long as James comes to defend himself...

Then Su Feng would show off and move around like crazy.

See, what is conspiracy that can often make your opponent feel emotionally broken more than conspiracy?

Staples Center, in the final quarter, Su Feng still didn't rest.

On CCTV, Director Zhang saw this scene and said in surprise: "Oh! Su Feng is going to play the whole game today!"

Then you have to play the whole game, Coach Zhang!

Otherwise, how can we force the Warriors to get James back?

In the final quarter, Yao Ming really had to rest.

Because in the third quarter of the game, Yao Ming was always overloaded on both offense and defense.

Therefore, Van Gundy cannot take the risk that Yao may fall at any time and send him to play.

However, as the physical fitness of the players from both teams continues to decline...

Once the Warriors lose offensive points on the court...

Under the Lakers' insane perimeter defense...

What should they do?

Be reasonable...

In today's league, only the Lakers dare to play like this when facing the Warriors.

Because besides the fact that there are so many people playing ball...

The worst thing about the Lakers is that they have Su Feng.

On the sidelines, Van Gundy finally saw it.

Faced with the Lakers' rogue style of play that is almost like a hooligan...

The only thing the Warriors can do is to pray that Su Feng can strike as hard as he did in the G2 game.

However......

Uh-huh!

Uh-huh!

Uh-huh!

In the final quarter of the game, after looking at Su Feng who felt like cheating, Van Gundy had to replace James in advance after sighing.

On the sidelines, he patted James on the back. Before James came on the court, Van Gundy couldn't even bear to look at James.

On the court, fortunately, Curry and Clay stepped forward at critical moments and hit difficult three-pointers for the Warriors.

On the Warriors' bench, when Curry and Klay hit three-pointers...

This is definitely Van Gundy's most relieved moment in this game so far!

But......

You Warriors have pitchers who can explode.

Don't the Lakers have no pitchers and can't explode?

Who do you look down on?

Uh-huh!

Uh-huh!

In the final quarter, Green, who replaced Kobe, used his strength to explain what a big heart is!

After hitting two consecutive three-pointers for the Lakers, Danny Green, whose real name was Zhang Tielin, became the last straw for the Warriors that night.

In the end, 119 to 128.

In the first game of the Western Conference Finals back to Staples with the Warriors, the Lakers had the last laugh.

In the whole game, Su Feng scored a total of 45 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Kobe scored 13 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 1 block.

Bledsoe scored the team's second-highest 29 points.

At the same time, it also set a new record for his highest score in a single game in his playoff career.

In addition, Middleton and Green also scored 18 points and 12 points respectively.

For the Warriors, James, who drained the last drop of blood for the team, scored 33 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

Xiao Yao, Clay, and Butler scored 16, 18, and 15 points respectively.

This night, as depressed as James was Stephen Curry.

In the game, he scored 30 points for the Warriors. Not only did he successfully assist Bledsoe to score the highest score in a single game of his playoff career, but he also assisted Bledsoe when the Warriors closed the gap between the two teams several times. Repeatedly contributing to the Lakers valuable transition attack opportunities due to mistakes.

The playing style of primary school students is simply high risk and high reward.

Regardless of past or present life, you cannot ask Curry not to make mistakes on the court.

Because rather than making mistakes, once he loses his personal rhythm in the game...

That would make him not know how to fight.

One thing to say.

After the G3 war.

Curry really misses Rondo.

Because although Coach Long will always use various methods to disgust him on the defensive end.

But at least, when defending Rondo, Curry doesn't have to be as miserable as defending Bledsoe!

All right!

In the G3 game, Rondo's main task indeed changed from defending Curry to waving the towel with Sacre.

Tsk!

Look at the depth of this Lakers lineup!

You can have a star guard in his prime serve as a water cooler keeper and still win...

It’s outrageous to mention Nima!

After G3, Van Gundy has realized the serious situation of this series.

Two days later, at the Staples Center, the G4 game of the Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and the Warriors officially began.

As a result, inspired by the G3 game, Director Lu simply placed Bledsoe in the starting lineup for this game.

On the court, Bledsoe was still vigorous in this game.

In Su Feng's previous life, in his 23 career matches with Stephen Curry, Bledsoe averaged only 12 points per game...

But if you exclude Bledsoe's early career games, you will find that Bledsoe often played explosive games with Curry in his peak period.

Just like Iverson versus Nash.

Neither of the two of them can try to guard against the other.

And compared with Su Feng's memory...

Curry hasn't been able to get Klay to help him guard Bledsoe.

After all, on the Lakers side, Su Feng, Kobe, Middleton...

None of them are good.

So, that's it.

After making very bold changes to the Lakers' lineup in G3, Director Lu was surprised to find...

The Lakers don't even need Su Feng to set the tone for the Lakers through a strong attack at the beginning of the game.

Because wouldn’t it be enough to catch Curry and beat him to death?

On the Warriors' side, it's not like Van Gundy didn't think of a way.

For example, replacing Chandler to increase the team's interior mobility.

Use Chandler's movement speed to wipe Curry's butt.

Then......

Van Gundy was dumbfounded.

Because Director Lu, who is becoming more and more bold in lineup adjustments, directly moved Su Feng to the fifth position after the Warriors changed their lineup, and replaced Kevin Garnett with Dinwiddie.

At this point in this series, Coach Lu has figured it out.

Anyway, as long as you, James, burst in, ordinary people can't stop you.

In addition, the Lakers' grand strategy is originally to consume James.

Therefore, it doesn't matter who the Lakers use to play center.

Because as long as James can pay the toll at the first pass on the outside, it will be fine.

But after the Lakers changed into the Death Five.

On the Warriors' side, Curry has to make a choice no matter what.

That is......

Or be broken into a sieve by Bledsoe.

Or they will be beaten to pieces by Su Feng, Kobe, Middleton, and Dinwiddie.

From the results.

Dinwiddie was the gentlest to Curry in the first quarter.

Because his skills are still relatively immature at the moment, Van Gundy asked Curry to face off against Dinwiddie most of the time after the Lakers changed their lineup.

But in the face of the Lakers' five dying players...

Van Gundy couldn't come up with the best response for a while.

In the first quarter of the game, the score between the two teams was 35 to 38.

On the court, Su Feng, who served as center, was able to defeat the Warriors.

Because the Lakers' offensive space is extremely wide, the Warriors' defensive players simply cannot effectively protect each other.

In the second quarter of the game, the Warriors who replaced Xiaoyao successfully forced the Lakers to replace Xiaojia.

After all, Mingdi’s face still needs to be given.

but......

After Yao Ming left the game.

The Lakers immediately got back the five dead players.

The Warriors couldn't suppress the Lakers' offense.

But......

To win, they must play a more efficient offense than the Lakers.

However, the premise of such high efficiency is often based on the fact that James' physical fitness is still OK.

Someone may ask.

Can't Jimmy Butler serve as a reliable offensive point to help James?

Is it because Van Gundy doesn't trust Butler?

Emmm!

This is a good question.

the answer is......

Since Teacher Yue and Middleton on the Lakers side have to abide by the "Basic Law of Player Growth"...

So why does Butler not have to abide by the "Basic Law of Player Development"?

In this life, Butler is definitely one of Van Gundy's favorite players after coaching the Warriors.

But in a magical game like Hu Yong...

Jiba obviously still needs time to grow.

In this series, Middleton's performance is not as good as before for the same reason.

In the first half of the Staples Center game, the only thing that could make Van Gundy feel gratified may be that Clay went berserk in the second quarter.

On the court, in less than 8 minutes of playing time in the second quarter, Clay scored a total of 19 points for the Warriors.

However, the reason why the Immortal Bureau is the Immortal Bureau.

Precisely because you have gods, I also have Da Luo Jinxian.

In the third quarter of the game, Su Feng, the king of 20+ points in a single quarter in the regular season and playoffs in NBA history, responded to the Warriors with a wave of 23 points in a single quarter.

In the final quarter, James ran out of physical energy.

Although the Warriors' outside players have brought back the suspense of the game many times...

However, the Lakers, who scored more efficiently, relied on their more stable scoring to win the G4 game.

In the whole game, the finishing score of the two teams was 124 to 129.

Su Feng scored a total of 51 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists for the Lakers, and once again set a new record for the oldest player with 50+ points in the NBA playoffs.

Two days later, as the Lakers defeated the Warriors 119-110 in Oakland...

This round of the Western Conference Finals has come to an end.

Although this series only played 5 games.

But this is definitely one of the most valuable playoff games in NBA history.

Unfortunately.

If the warriors hadn't fought so aggressively before, they would have eliminated the king as soon as possible...

Then maybe, in this series, they won't be so passive.

but......

History does not exist if.

Oakland, Oracle Arena.

Looking at Su Feng who had already put on the hat that symbolized the Western Conference champion.

After accepting the interview with some disappointment, Yao Ming was the last one to leave the court on a night when the Lakers successfully advanced to the Finals.

This is Xiao Yao's last interview as a player.

At the end of the interview, the Oriental giant forced his lips to smile and said: "The most glorious day in a person's life is not the day when he achieves success and fame.

It is the day when the challenge of life arises out of lamentation and despair, and one bravely steps towards will.

Compared to most people, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net I have been lucky enough in my career.

I have no regrets about not being successful this season.

Now, I have to go spend time with my family! "

From 00/01 to 14/15.

The legend of a generation has come to an end.

Fifteen long years are enough to change some people and things.

But some things cannot be changed, such as people's memories of the glorious days of the Great Wall of China.

Goodbye, my old friend...

Yao Ming!
