I really just want to strike

Speaking of it, as a "Humanoid Kemai Encyclopedia", Su Feng remembered that Kobe and McGrady traveled to Europe for more than a month during the suspension holiday, and left a lot of affectionate photos.

It's a pity that after Kobe met Vanessa in the future, even McGrady will never watch soap operas or ride roller coasters with Kobe again.

Oh man.

Heh, bro.

Oh, Kobe.

……

Chapter 263 Castle in the Sky: Toronto

During this 15-day trip to Europe, the Steel Six Brothers had a blast.

As the saying goes, come out to play, it doesn't matter what you play.

The key depends on who you are playing with.

Just like Su Feng's previous life, when he was in college, a few roommates who had a good relationship made an appointment to go to an Internet cafe for a night out, and they could have a good time.

Originally, Su Feng planned to invite Iverson to join him this time, so as to be bound by the "Four Iron Kings".

It's a pity that Iverson, who has a family, was taking his family on vacation in Hawaii, so this "Answer" was not able to participate in the Brothers of Steel tour group this time.

What's worth mentioning is that in Madrid, when everyone went to the amusement park together, Kobe also managed to discover one of Su Feng's weaknesses.

"Su, why don't you try something as exciting as a roller coaster?"

Looking at Su Feng with the word "reject" written on his face, Kobe said with a smirk.

Ah......

'Kobe, do you think I'm really afraid to ride a mere roller coaster? '

"I won't.

I'm a little dizzy today, not suitable for roller coasters. "

After shaking his head, Su Feng said to Kobe resolutely.

Um......

There is one thing to say, sports like roller coaster, bungee jumping and skydiving, even if Su Feng wanted to pursue excitement, he would not try it.

To be fair, it's not a matter of being cowardly or not.

It's just that Su Feng is very clear that for a "land creature" like him, the sky is not suitable for him.

And just when Kobe wanted to forcefully take Su Feng to ride the roller coaster...

Fortunately, Big Ben and Nash came out together to stop him.

Otherwise, who knows what posture Su Feng will use to sink Kobe into the Pacific Ocean next season?

……

Amidst the laughter, on November 11th, everyone went to the last stop of this European tour:

———Milan, Italy.

For the city of Milan, it can be said that this is the place Kobe is most familiar with besides Philadelphia and Los Angeles.

Kobe, who grew up watching the "Three Musketeers of the Netherlands" play football, his dream in his youth was to play for AC Milan when he grew up.

Therefore, this time, at the strong request of Kobe, everyone went to San Siro to watch a Serie A game with him.

As a result, the lucky Kobe not only managed to recall his childhood on this day...

While watching the game, he also ran into another idol of his boyhood on the basketball court besides the magician:

——— Mike D'Antoni.

As a legend of the Milan basketball team, D'Antoni, who served as an assistant coach for the Nuggets last season, has returned to Italy since the lockout began, waiting for the lockout to end.

Although the NBA stipulates that coaches cannot have contact with players during the lockout period, the league can't stop such encounters.

When he noticed Su Feng and others who were traveling with Kobe, D'Antoni also took the initiative to greet everyone.

"It's unbelievable, I didn't expect that one day we would be able to sit and watch football together."

Kobe, who met his idol, was very happy, and kept introducing everyone to D'Antoni's classic battles in the player era.

However, when Kobe introduced D'Antoni to everyone, except for Su Feng, the others had no interest in D'Antoni.

After all, the NBA is still a league of stars.

As far as D'Antoni is now, in the eyes of this group of geniuses, where does the card come from?

Originally, D'Antoni, who at first just wanted to chat with Su Feng, was completely shocked after he started the conversation with Su Feng.

Because, when he and Su Feng were talking about tactics, not only could Su Feng always guess what he would say next, they could even reach an agreement on some offensive tactics.

All right......

D'Antoni might not believe it.

As far as the tactics he will coach the Suns in the future, Su Feng is more than just as simple as a few treasures?

As an excellent keyboard warrior, Su Feng even downloaded Sun's tactical manual from foreign websites.

Su Feng knew that the current D'Antoni is not the future running madman, and some of his current thoughts are indeed very naive in Su Feng's view.

If Su Feng remembers correctly, next season, after D'Antoni takes over as the coach of the Nuggets, he will understand that no matter how good the tactics are, players need to implement them.

However, although D'Antoni is still very young, in Su Feng's opinion, he is very suitable to be Davis' deputy.

You know, hinting behind the scenes is also a technical job.

If D'Antoni could serve as Davis' deputy, why would Su Feng worry so much in the future?

After a while, many of Su Feng's current research on tactics are still only theoretical and superficial.

And this is also the reason why in his rookie season, sometimes no matter how much he planned, he would be hit in the face.

Therefore, knowing that D'Antoni will encounter Waterloo in Denver in the future, Su Feng decided to make a good impression on D'Antoni first.

Su Feng remembered very clearly that after leaving the Nuggets in the future, D'Antoni had gone through a period of years of study.

In the end, he didn't find his train of thought until he met Nash in Phoenix.

Therefore, if D'Antoni is willing to come over to serve as Davis' deputy when he leaves the Nuggets in the future, then in Su Feng's view, among other things, the "Nash User Manual" in D'Antoni's hand is not enough. It is worth forming a good relationship with him.

"It's incredible!

Sue, in my opinion, when you retire in the future, if you don't become a coach, it will definitely be a big loss for the NBA coaching world. "D'Antoni praised.

As for D'Antoni's polite words, Su Feng shook his head.

In fact, Su Feng was not interested in being a coach.

But for things like training coaches, he is still very good.

"Mike, I think you can pay attention to the Raptors in the new season."

When parting from D'Antoni, Su Feng specially reminded him.

"I will, I love John Davis as a coach.

And after chatting with you today, I feel even more that the Raptors will definitely usher in a new life under your leadership next season. "D'Antoni laughed.

Su Feng knew that D'Antoni's words were still mostly compliments.

But Su Feng was not in a hurry.

Because he believes that when D'Antoni finds out that the Nuggets can't be taken away next season, he will know that the first assistant coach of the Raptors is the most suitable position for him.

……

On the 20th, after the Iron Brothers' European tour, Kobe, who was not satisfied, asked "Boss Su" to take everyone to China for a few days.

Then......

There's no after that.

Because even though Su Feng had made all the preparations, with the conspicuous complexions of Kobe, Carter and others, if the Chinese fans couldn't recognize them, they would be hell.

Su Weiguo, who wiped Su Feng's buttocks a lot, finally sent Su Feng to the plane, wishing he could kick him back to Toronto.

"Dad, is this how you treat your lovely son?" Su Feng, who was rejected by Su Weiguo, said aggrievedly.

"Oh, get out of here quickly! Get out as far as you can!" After showing his father's love with an iron fist, Su Weiguo said to Su Feng.

No way, maybe, this is the father!

In fact, why did Su Weiguo want Su Feng to go away?

He wished that Su Feng could stay at home for a few more days.

However, from Su Weiguo's point of view, as a father, he must show his stern side in front of Su Feng.

Therefore, in his Su Weiguo's words:

"Even Hu Weidong won the NBA championship, before you won the NBA championship, you still have the face to go back to China?"

have to......

Su Feng felt that his father really didn't know anything about basketball.

Because if the NBA championship is so easy to win, then there will not be so many "uncrowned kings" crying in the toilet in the future.

But speaking of it, this impromptu trip back to China made the members of the Brothers of Steel feel the terrible enthusiasm of the Rabbit family...

When traveling in China, Su Feng and others could cause a sensation wherever they went, and even eating noodles with fried sauce had to be surrounded by fans from several streets.

In addition, although the NBA stipulates that players cannot use the NBA for publicity during the lockout period, how can the local media of Rabbit's house care about these restrictions?

As for New York, when he learned of these interesting things, Stern adopted a strategy of turning a blind eye this time.

After all, as a "fair" president, in Stern's view, it is a good thing for Su Feng and others to help the NBA maintain the popularity of the overseas market during the lockout period by playing around the corner.

certainly......

Stern might not believe it...

It's because Su Feng wants to play the side game, it's just that his domestic reputation is too explosive at the moment.

……

At the end of November, the Six Steel Brothers returned to Toronto to continue their boring practice.

And just like in Su Feng's memory, there is still no room for maneuver in the current labor negotiations.

As early as early November, Stern had already announced the cancellation of all NBA games in December.

It also includes the NBA's annual Christmas game.

And when the time came to December, after Stern announced that the All-Star Game for the new season would also be cancelled, the players had already felt unprecedented pressure.

Due to the previous arbitration, the players received less than a dime of salary during the lockout period, and the middle and lower-level players with contracts could not even make money by playing overseas.

The youth meal that NBA players themselves eat, you say it’s okay to make trouble for a short time, but if it goes on for a long time, who has the courage and courage?

In addition, facing the situation of continuous losses, the bosses also expressed their willingness to make concessions.

Although there are not many teams making money in the NBA at the moment, and running an NBA team is not the main business of most owners, but where is the annual share of nearly 40 billion yuan? Which owner do you think is willing to give up?

However, after the superstars headed by Ewing refused to make concessions many times, the bosses who were willing to make concessions became firm again.

As a result, the lockout continued, and the panic remained.

12 month 23 day.

In the House of Steel, except for Su Feng who knew the development process was very calm, the rest of the people felt that Christmas Eve and Christmas would not be able to pass after watching the news.

Because on this day, Stern has officially issued an ultimatum to the players union.

Stern said that if both employers and employees still cannot reach an agreement before January 1, then he will announce the cancellation of the entire 7/98 season.

"Su... You said that if next season is cancelled, what should we do then?"

Nash, who is about to usher in a contract year next season, feels that he is going to be cold this time.

Because according to the regulations, if the 98/99 season is cancelled, then Nash will not only not receive his original salary, but also have no chance to prove himself. It will be difficult to sign another contract.

In Nash's view, all-star players like Su Feng and Kobe naturally don't have to worry about their next contract.

But he, Steve Nash, a water fountain keeper, has a fart card.
