Chapter 171: Lost and Returned

"I'm sure Moldova Pyttsburgh Ironman fans will never forget this young point guard. It was he who shattered the Pittsburgh Ironmen's five-year playoff dream. ”

Looking at the red light on the rebound, Klinsmann put on his training uniform. He stared blankly at the big screen, at the desperate numbers. 109-98, Moldova-Pittsburgh Ironmen, out!

It's not the first time Klinsmann's dream has been shattered, so he just looks at it expressionlessly. But in fact, the "queen bee" is distressed. He thought that everything would start again in Moldova. However, the end result is the same as before.

Looking at Su Feng, who was admired by fans, Klinsmann took the initiative to walk in front of Su Feng.

Su Feng looked at Klinsmann in surprise. Klinsmann didn't say anything and hugged Su Feng. After that, he still didn't say anything, and he was left alone.

This is Klinsmann's recognition of the younger generation, and of course it is also a challenge. "You won this year. Next year, I won't lose again. ”

"What did that guy say to you?" Etheiram Bogado curiously stepped forward and asked Su Feng. Su Feng looked at Klinsmann's back and shook his head gently.

"No, he didn't say anything, but he said everything......"

So in today's training, Oscar Robertson also intends to completely lay out the tactics according to the characteristics of the Chicago Bucks. While the Baltimore bullets had a hard time getting back into a city, Oscar Robertson was well aware that they couldn't defeat the Chicago Stag Youth Army.

In the locker room, energetic players are busy changing their equipment. After the Pittsburgh Ironmen were eliminated, everyone was excited. The easy first round also made people see the perfect transition between the old and new Anderson packers.

"What's more, your son's rapid progress has also made me determined to retire. At least after losing me, the Anderson packers have a stronger "successor", hahaha! So I decided not to renew my contract at the end of the season. I plan to retire and become a coach. It's been a long-term plan for me......"

"Now is not the time to say goodbye, Kriezmann." His voice was finally not like that.

"No, it's time. I'm 40 years old and my career is as long as you are now! It's hard to relate to the pain of looking at a team in a crisis and feeling powerless. When you're my age, you'll understand. Of course, that could be years later, hahaha. Ethiiram Bogado smiled again, as if he didn't care about retirement.

In fact, Isyiram Bogado has been fighting against himself for a long time. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so calm now.

"The most important point. You have to learn to walk alone. I can't be with you for the rest of my life, Nate Archibald can't be with you for the rest of my life, and Veronica Dudley can't be with you for the rest of my life. We're destined to leave the world of basketball ahead of you. Over time, you are also destined to walk on your own. After that, you are the leader of the city of Marrakech. It's you. You have to lead others forward. "Actually, Atheiram Bogado had long wanted to tell Su Feng about this. This was the last lesson he prepared for Su Feng.

In contrast to Oscar Robertson, Clyde Drexler never makes excuses and never gives himself a reason to give up. He believes in only one thing, fight!

"Your reason is really novel. Are you ready to fight for the sake of respect for your opponents? Okay, I'll tell King McKew that your cover shoot plans will be delayed for a few more days. After tomorrow's game ... You need to get a good rest, and Duffy knows how intense it is this season. Isn't Su Feng tired? Tired, Hakim Olajuwon was injured that time, and Su Feng even had to play the whole game. This kid, he never complains.

After hanging up the phone, Su Feng stood up again, picked up the basketball and continued to contact. Chris, tomorrow, I'm going to make you look beautiful and end the season!

※※※

On May 8, 2012, the NBA playoffs returned to the Baltimore bullets. Today, Dolph Shays put his anger down before the game, and the Baltimore Bullets will surely be able to sweep away the opponent Pittsburgh Ironmen.

The fans, one by one, like sincere believers, rushed into the stadium to witness Dolph Shays's "prophecy" come true. There was no absence in this luxurious stadium, and the world's attention was focused on this retro-shaped stadium.

"How are you feeling?" Before the race, the Pittsburgh Ironmen doctor was still checking on Clyde Drexler's physical condition. During the stretch, Clyde Drexler forced the team doctor to make a "yes" gesture, and in fact, his frowning expression betrayed himself.

What about Su Feng? This guy was the first player to warm up on the field. Looking at Su Feng's insincere performance on the field, people even thought that the Baltimore Bullets were 0-3 behind.

Before the start of the match, Su Feng and Clyde Drexler didn't have anything in common, they didn't even look at each other. After the competition, the entire stage will be played by these two people.

"Chris ran all the way to the basket and threw the ball into the box! Oh my God, Chris, if you keep playing like this, sooner or later you'll be exhausted Clyde Drexler also scored with a very tiring physical layup, and Safiyo Hamilton was worried.

Clyde Drexler quickly pulled away from defence after scoring and knew he couldn't play the whole game like that. But while he's still playing, he has to score as many points as he can!

On the other hand, Su Feng tormented Clyde Drexler's nerves with his lightning-fast starting speed. Su Feng didn't control the ball for a long time today. Most of the time, he passed the ball to his teammates after half-time. As for himself, he is tirelessly interspersed with sports in the half-court range!

In order to keep up with Su Feng, Clyde Drexler spent a lot of physical strength, even regardless of the pain. But can't he follow? He had to follow. Su Feng just scored two points and three points, that is, Clyde Drexler did not follow closely and was punished.

After the three-point line, Su Feng received Carter's pass again. Clyde Drexler panted and posted it out in time. At 26 years old, he has it all. 21-year-old Su Feng is very relieved!

The trio threatened to move to the left, but Su Feng suddenly moved closer to the right of Clyde Drexler. This simple action, used on Su Feng, was very deadly. Because of the entire league, there is no player who is faster than Su Feng's first step!

Clyde Drexler subconsciously reached for Sophon's shirt, but unfortunately, in Baltimore bullets, Clyde Drexler had no privilege. The referee blew the whistle, and Su Feng walked to the free throw line. Clyde Drexler accumulated two fouls in a single quarter, and in order to protect him, Olympi Priestley had to replace Clyde Drexler.

Clyde Drexler sat out of breath on the bench with a towel in hand, as if he had just come out of the shower.

After Clyde Drexler left, substitute Mo "Mobuchuan" Williams couldn't cope with the Pittsburgh Ironmen's offense. The team played a mess and didn't score for another 2 minutes and 43 seconds. , the Baltimore Bullets ended the first quarter with an eight-point advantage.

Butler finally woke up in the second quarter, and Pittsburgh Irons fans were looking forward to four games until he finally recovered. 8 points, 100% shooting, against Dave Debuschanel and Carter. Butler's second-quarter dream helped the Pittsburgh Ironmen close the deficit to just two points before halftime.

The Pittsburgh Irons stick to an eight-man rotation at halftime, with the advantage that they don't interfere with the players' competitive form. The disadvantage is that when the main players are not physically strong, it is difficult for those who do not play much to get into the state quickly.

In the third quarter, 2000 draft champion Kenyon Martin finally got a chance to play. However, Jianlian was frozen by his own body.

Yi Jianlian pulled to the middle distance, as long as Su Feng passed, Martin always couldn't run. Panting, he ran between the basket and the mid-range, unable to defend effectively and draining his stamina. What about Yi Jianlian? Three-quarters, six. Although he doesn't have the stats of Odom playing last season, it is enough for Odom's bench.

The Baltimore Bullets, who lost three times in the regular season, and Su Feng, a 21-year-old rookie. Everyone thought the Pittsburgh Ironmen and Clyde Drexler would get through easily. However, fate and Chris played a funny joke.

※※※

The Baltimore bullets were quiet in the morning, and the whole city didn't seem to wake up. Compared to the 24-hour bustle of Ingoland, the atmosphere of the Baltimore bullets seems more suitable for one to settle down and do something.

Clyde Drexler put on his hat and showed up early at the door of the center of the West Extraction route. Early in the morning, there was no one around the stadium in the West Extraction Center, and naturally no one pestered him to sign autographs.

"Hey, the stadium isn't open to the public yet! If you want to go, come back after 10 in the morning. Ian Sr., the janitor at the airline center in West Tooth, yelled at a man with a hood coming up.

The playoffs have been very hot in recent days, and many fans who come here and can't get tickets want to visit the interior of the Baltimore Bullets. But outsiders, a lot of people don't know the opening hours of the stadium. This is not the first time that people have visited in the past few days.

But the man walking towards the stadium didn't seem to stop. When Clyde Drexler came to old Ian, he took his hat off his clothes.

"I'm supposed to be an insider, sir." Clyde Drexler smiled at the gray-haired goalkeeper, he looked good, not the same as Clyde Drexler on the field.

"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't know it was you......" Old Ian waved his hand. Who would have thought he would meet Chris Clyde Drexler early in the morning!?

"No, I'm bothering you, sir!" Clyde Drexler patted Ian Sr. on the shoulder, signaling that he didn't need to apologize.

If I'm not mistaken, the Pittsburgh Ironmen are supposed to practice from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Ian asked curiously as he opened the door for Clyde Drexler. Su Feng came to the training ground in advance every day. Ian is used to it, but the away players train early. Before that, only Kobe Bryant was the only one.

"Yes, but you know......" Looking at the poster of the Baltimore Bullets next to him, Clyde Drexler sighed that we are in danger!

※※※

After the series, one could say that Sufung has overtaken Chris Clyde Drexler. There is no doubt that fans of the Baltimore Bullets are excited about the news. Now they also have the best point guard in the league!

But there is no doubt that this kind of news is extremely ridiculous in Su Feng's own ears. Clyde Drexler's offense was steady, and Su Feng was ashamed. Clyde Drexler's ability to control the tempo of the match was excellent, and Su Feng was slightly inferior.

He knew that too little rotation and injuries were the reason for Clyde Drexler's "tragic death" in the last game. Su Feng does not deny that he has played a great role in restricting Clyde Drexler, but he will not be blindly complacent.

"Let's push the 2K thing to the playoffs, and now I don't want to be distracted." On the training ground, Su Feng, who was immersed in a vest, was talking to his agent, Bill Duffy.

"But their game is going live in October, and now they're going to have to do some hype!" Duffy knew Su Feng's stubborn temper. In the face of critical competition, Su Feng can give up everything, even the money he once craved.

"Wait until after the La Liga final, after tomorrow's game."

"Hey, I really admire your professionalism. But... What are you worried about? You're 3-0 ahead, Oscar Robertson and Clyde Drexler are injured. If you can make it to the Western Conference semifinals, that's certainly the problem, and Bill Duffy shook his head. Jennings had a bad attitude. Su Feng seemed to be pushing too hard.

"It's not a matter of promotion, Mr. Duffy. Chris Clyde Drexler wants to have a good fight with me, and I respect him. So, I have to make sure I'm 100% online! ”

"History can be made. Why can't I? "After the last match, Clyde Drexler's determined expression left a deep impression on Su Feng.

At that time, Su Feng knew that Clyde Drexler was the same as him.

The Baltimore Bullets rotated 10 players and had no physical problems at all. Hakim Olajuwon after Su Feng left the court, Hakim Olajuwon's performance in the playoffs was not small.

However, Clyde Drexler doesn't seem to want to end the season like this. On the final offensive of the third quarter, Clyde Drexler broke through Su Feng and avoided Heywood's block in the air for a layup. This hard-earned goal kept the Pittsburgh Ironers within 10 points!

Clyde Drexler's performance won applause from everyone, including Su Feng, but respect is respect, and victory is victory. Today, the Baltimore Bullets don't want to be losers.

The Lakers face the Grizzlies in the first round of the year, so making the cut isn't a big deal. And what made Inggoland fans very annoyed was that after returning to Ingoland, the Pittsburgh Ironmen actually lost the third game in a row!

"Before the game, the Pittsburgh Ironmen said Clyde Drexler and Oscar Robertson were unavailable because of injuries. Now it looks like it's just a smokescreen for the Pittsburgh Ironmen. Clyde Drexler and Oscar Robertson not only played, but played more than 40 minutes. Unfortunately, the Pittsburgh Ironmen were hard at work today, and Safiyo Hamilton shook his head, knowing the Pittsburgh Ironmen were ahead of the fourth quarter. But what about now? The victory of the Baltimore Bullets was at hand.

Initially, the Pittsburgh Ironers used a Clyde Drexler play to give the Baltimore Bullets a string of mistakes and hit a 10-up lead at the start of the fourth quarter. However, from 8:30 a.m. before the finals, the Pittsburgh Ironers only scored a goal in 8:26 seconds, and the eight-point advantage quickly disappeared. The defense of Baltimore's bullets once again made the Pittsburgh Iron Man realize what it means to be airtight.

It wasn't until 3.7 seconds before the end that the Pittsburgh Irons broke the gap with Butler's three-pointer. But it didn't work. The Baltimore Bullets have won.

3 to 0, although the series is not over yet. But this score has undoubtedly sentenced the Pittsburgh Iron Man to death.

The Baltimore Bullets were on the verge of victory, and the Pittsburgh Ironmen's first-round breakthrough was easier than they thought.

"I'm too inefficient. In a post-game interview, Clyde Drexler scored 10 points, five assists and eight of his 12 shooting turnovers and fell into deep self-blame.

"But the Pittsburgh Ironmen are now 3-0 behind." The reporter did not know what Clyde Drexler meant by saying this. Does he still want to win?

"History can be made. Why can't I? Clyde Drexler asked, and he walked into the locker room with an unhappy expression. Clyde Drexler is not Oscar Robertson, and while it is true that this injury has taken his form down considerably, he won't use that as an excuse.

Chris Clyde Drexler is a fighter. He never knew what giving up was. Maybe after 3 o'clock, there will be a bigger storm waiting for Su Feng to face

If he was lucky, he could have made it to the Western Conference Finals at the age of 23, when he was a ferocious "queen bee," but he was defeated by the veteran Spurs in World War VII.

If it weren't for "basketball reasons", he would have broken through the bottleneck with Kobe Bryant a long time ago and created his own era. At the end of last year, Clyde Drexler and Bryant were talking not about how many games they could win in a season, but how many championships they could win together. But fate, however, when he first joined the league, he played a big joke with the baby-faced guard with a shy smile.

Clyde Drexler still came to Ingoland to join the Pittsburgh Ironmen, who failed to make the playoffs in their first five seasons. Clyde Drexler is familiar with the combination of power forward and center. When he was with the Hornets, he helped David West become an All-Star power forward and helped Chandler, who won last season's Baltimore Bullets, become a two-piece machine.
