Chapter 117: Kill You
Chapter 117: Kill You
"You mean, Julius Owen!?" Su Feng remembered the battle between Anderson, the packers and the Trail Blazers in the playoffs in the first year of his career. In that series, apart from Roy's last solo, Julius Owen made the deepest impression on Su Feng.
Like Alexis Sanchez said, the guy has a tough style and plays very hard. But Su Feng deeply remembered his weak eyes.
Su Feng knows a thing or two about Julius Owen's story. The guy with dirty braids before has improved almost every year, just like himself, and he has improved very quickly. That horrific injury came at a time when a superstar was slowly beginning to mature and become adept on both ends of the floor.
On January 28, 2009, during the Lakers' game against the Bobcats, Julius Irving was maliciously elbowed by Bynum, and his ribs were broken and went straight into his lungs. After surgery, Julius Irving's lungs lost 40% of their function, but it took him just 10 days to return to the court to continue playing in order for the team to make the playoffs. If you want to fight, this gentleman can fight better than Su Feng.
Then it can be seen that his attack power is slowly declining, and he can only fight for a place in the alliance with a more aggressive fighting attitude and a more desperate mentality. The result? Instead of thanking him, the Bobcats traded Julius Irving, who had lost his superstar aura, to Portland just for a first-round pick... In the end, the tragic and injured team also sent away Roy and Julius Irving to their final glory.
He's always improving! If he hadn't been injured, he would have been improving.
After the surgery, Julius Owen quickly reached a bottleneck and could never do it. Although Julius Irving can still be an All-Star in 18+10 after 10 years, everyone knows that he should be more than that! That year was also Julius Owen's last glory. His momentum was like a taut string that suddenly broke.
This season, Julius Owen played under Su Feng's mentor Stevens. But even Machico Gonzalez couldn't save Julius Owen's career. He averaged 24.4 minutes per game, contributing only 5.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals. Julius Owen and the superstar have long since lost their relationship......
Thinking of this, Su Feng couldn't help but touch his ribs, which were still wrapped in elastic bandages. Fortunately, the force of Chalmers's elbow to Su Feng was not so terrifying. If Oscar Robertson or Bosh elbowed him, Su Feng couldn't imagine what would happen.
Now, my ribs are fragile. But don't despair like the last one.
At that time, Su Feng only wanted to win, so he didn't care so much. And at that time, he didn't know the extent of his injury, he just wondered if his ribs would hurt.
Su Feng didn't want to be the next Julius Owen. He just won his second MVP trophy. He didn't want to be a flash in the pan, and he didn't want the series to be his last glory.
In the game, Su Feng will definitely play. If it is not fought, the combat effectiveness of the Anderson packers will drop sharply. It is clear that a team has lost its leader.
But in the next few games, Su Feng had to change his style of play. Just like Kobe Bryant began to attack more and more in the back, since he couldn't resist the injury, he changed himself to adapt to the injury.
"Everyone, fasten your seatbelts again, the plane is about to land!" After Knight Archibald reminded me, Su Feng couldn't help but look out the window of the plane.
Has Ingolan arrived? If he could, Su Feng really wanted to finish the whole series here!
※※※
As soon as the Anderson packers player came out of the airport, he was wildly pursued by the media. At this time, the reporters were undoubtedly most concerned about Su Feng's injury.
"Ho-ho, and every action is full of deception. A couple of simple passes between him and the Anderson Packers, two interior players, allowed the Anderson Packers to attack with ease. I would say this is the real top organizer! "Oscar Robertson is not like those local commentators in Inggoland who hate Su Feng. His assessment was very pertinent. In front of Su Feng, Oscar Robertson's organization can only be said to be pediatric!
If it is placed in peacetime, Su Feng will definitely use Gobert's cover to get inside, either folding layups or assists to score. In short, all in a radical way.
But today, when Su Feng became an elegant passer on the perimeter with peace of mind, he saw Gobert's heavy dunk and found out. The sense of accomplishment that comes with directing teammates to score on the outside is no less than that.
If Knight Archibald had known that Su Feng had a fracture, he would never have let Su Feng play without any protection. Of course, it would be impossible for Alexis Sanchez to compromise with Su Feng if he knew that there was a fracture at that time.
Therefore, Knight Archibald can only rely on the power of the system to really restrain Su Feng's hands and feet. If the whole team operates according to Su Feng's style of "passing the ball first", Su Feng can only obediently execute it in order not to destroy the entire system.
A team's head coach racks his brains to tie up his star, and this may be the only time in NBA history.
The training went very well. Under Su Feng's organization, all the starting lineups have become threatening attack points. Iguodala and Nowitzki were in charge of the main attack, while Tony Allen and Gobert were in charge of stealing points.
After 20 minutes of training, the results were surprisingly good!
Su Feng delivered 9 assists in 20 minutes without mistakes, allowing everyone present and his team to score double-doubles! Knight Archibald was shocked by the quality he exhibited.
The accuracy of the other Anderson packers was one thing, but Su Feng's fast and accurate passing and incredible overall play allowed him to reinvigorate the Anderson packers' offense.
It seems that the injured Su Feng, no matter what, has a great effect.
There are some geniuses in this world who can solve problems by passing. To be a traditional point guard? Seems interesting......
The Chicago Bucks lost two games in a row in Moldova, ending a two-year playoff streak without a loss. After returning to Ingoland with a 2-0 scoreline, many are no longer optimistic about the future of the Chicago Bucks.
It wasn't until reporters broke the news that Su Feng's rib injury that Chicago Bucks fans finally saw a glimmer of hope. And the whole world also asked: How did Su Feng insist on finishing the race that day?
"Chinese are like this, do they love gambling?" Looking at Su Feng's injury report, Clyde Drexler's name immediately flashed in his mind.
"How dare you say anything about someone else?" Oscar Robertson looked at Clyde Drexler's wrapped knees, and both of them couldn't help but laugh.
While it may not seem honorable to do so, Oscar Robertson must admit that Su Feng's injury will be a turning point in this series!
In the last three minutes of the last game, Su Feng didn't know that he was injured, so he fought fiercely and really won. But human psychology can change. When you know you're hurt, you're afraid to fight like that again.
Everyone was afraid, including Su Feng. As long as he is a person and not a super machine secretly sent by China, he will definitely be afraid!
Oscar Robertson is rubbing his hands. Whether this series can be brought back depends on Su Feng's performance on the court after his injury. There is nothing dishonorable in competitive sports, and the winner is king. As long as you can win, everyone's mouth will be blocked by you!
※※※
Sitting on the plane to Ingolan, Su Feng was really worried about tomorrow's game. Since Alexis Sanchez showed Su Feng Julius Owen's injury report, Su Feng didn't dare to be careless.
The white clouds floating outside the window reminded Su Feng of the conversation he had with Alexis Sanchez yesterday.
'There's a guy who plays tough, has a lot of hard work, has a good defensive attitude and is slowly showing his attacking talent.
Moreover, he never suffered a serious injury that led him to retire, but after one injury, he was gradually stripped of his right to become a superstar. He was still struggling, working hard, but that lung injury cost him 40 percent of his lung work. While the injury didn't cost him his career, it did ruin his chances of becoming a superstar! That's what I want to tell you, too. You're not alone in this world. But sometimes, hard work doesn't always lead to good results! "
Nearly four minutes into the second quarter, Gobert made a layup jumper on the spot to give the Anderson Packers a 55-30 lead. Soon after the start of the second quarter, the score gap had already exceeded 20 points. In this section, Anderson Packers made all 6 of their first 6 shots and 19 of their first 21 shots, with a shooting rate of more than 90%, which was amazing.
The West Extraction Aviation Center has long since lost its voice, and even Oscar Robertson can't stand it. This is not a showdown at all, but a naked slaughter!
All the downsides shifted from the Anderson packers to the Chicago bucks. It seems that the days when the Chicago Bucks dominated the league are a thing of the past. 2-0, how many people were killed by Su Feng with their lives.
In the afternoon after the game, the team trained as usual. Today, in the locker room, Su Feng is no longer the fastest person to change equipment. Because he had to be bandaged by Alexis Sanchez before wearing the shirt today.
"Is it really that exaggerated?" Seeing Alexis Sanchez holding a roll of elastic bandages wrapped around his ribs, Su Feng sighed.
"Say something stupid!? You're either going to dress me up or you're going to sit on a cold bench! Alexis Sanchez replied angrily, thinking of yesterday's events, Alexis Sanchez was a little angry. He could guarantee that Nate Archibald and Su Feng's brains must have been caught in the door.
After Alexis Sanchez explained the reason for Su Feng's injury to Knight Archibald yesterday, Knight Archibald had hoped to take a truce at Su Feng.
'We're 2-0 up and we've got Elvin Johnson and Oscar Robertson. On such a solid foundation, we will definitely win the O'Brien Cup." That was Nate Archibald's first reaction after listening to Alexis Sanchez yesterday.
However, Su Feng talked about good and bad, but he talked about Knight Archibald thoroughly. So Knight Archibald approved Su Feng to play, but the playing time was limited to no more than 32 minutes, and protective measures must be taken.
Alexis Sanchez was confused at the time. He thinks Knight Archibald will stand firmly on his side. Therefore, to say that to be honest is to be honest.
Alexis Sanchez admits that such a minor fracture is really not a major injury. When Durant was injured like this, if he hadn't felt a pain in his chest while laughing at a single, he probably wouldn't have noticed.
But Alexis Sanchez is not afraid of the fracture itself, but of the potential danger on the pitch. In the case of a broken bone, if the ribs are hit hard again, it is not optimistic! But now that Nate Archibald nodded, all Alexis Sanchez could do was protect the wound as much as possible.
The elastic bandage not only fixed Su Feng's wound but also made him cough and laugh
It doesn't feel pain and acts as a cushion protection. If the ribs are stressed, it can help with some of the strength.
Finally, Alexis Sanchez wrapped the bandage from Su Feng's ribs to his shoulders to fix it. After putting on the jersey, the white bandage on the shoulders was a short-sleeved jersey for Feng, and only short-sleeved shirts with straight sleeves were worn.
Su Feng had seen other contestants dressed like this before, and felt that this was a way to show his personality. But now that I'm injured, I know that a lot of times, these gears are not what the players want to wear, but what they have to do.
Alexis Sanchez was left in the locker room while Alexis Sanchez was bandaging. Su Feng, who usually goes into battle directly with naked makeup, has now become the most complex player in protective gear.
"Is that okay?" Su Feng moved his right arm, not to mention that because of the pressure and fixation of the bandage, his wound really didn't hurt.
"Well, after training, let me help you dismantle it. Then, before each training session and the start of the game, we have to wrap it again. ”
", that's a hassle."
"You can also choose to go home without dismantling, if you can stand not showering in the summer. Alternatively, you can endure bathing with bandages. ”
"I'm open, and everything is up to you. Well, Alexis Sanchez, then, I'll go train first! Su Feng jumped twice excitedly, and then pushed open the door of the locker room.
"And!" Just as Su Feng was about to run to the training ground, the team doctor stopped him.
"Anything else?"
"Basketball is just a profession. Sometimes, don't rush. In a word... Protect yourself. Alexis Sanchez didn't know why he was saying this to Su Feng. Maybe he has seen too many injured stars, or maybe he doesn't want Su Feng to get hurt at all. In any case, he felt that as the chief team doctor for Anderson Packers, he had an obligation to remind the young man.
"Thank you, Alexis Sanchez." Su Feng didn't answer yes or no, just said thank you. Then, he ran to the training gym.
Alexis Sanchez shook his head. People always have something to do in their lifetime. For Su Feng, this matter may be basketball......
※※※
On the training ground, Su Feng's performance was normal. Knight Archibald specifically instructed Su Feng to reduce the number of breakouts and attack by organizing a series. Anderson's packers' tactical arrangements mostly use Su Feng as the passer.
Knight Archibald knew that Su Feng couldn't be so easily obedient on the court. You don't let him break through, and he can't help but go in when he gets on the pitch.
How would Knight Archibald feel if he had known in advance that a point guard who was only 1.75 meters tall would shine under Machico Gonzalez a year from now?
Later, Su Feng also came up to hug the most important coach in his life. Su Feng could see Machico Gonzalez's good intentions, and his tactical arrangement was very subtle. If he had attacked the city today for Maquico Gonzalez, the outcome could have been very different.
"Hey, your contract expires this summer. Are you interested in joining forces with me? Machico Gonzalez suddenly asked with a smile, as if he could read Su Feng's thoughts.
Su Feng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to seriously consider this issue!
"Hahaha, just kidding! You did a great job today, and they were right. Shorties don't deserve to play basketball. "Machico Gonzalez did not forget to laugh at himself, relieving the atmosphere that had somehow become serious.
However, Machico Gonzalez was still very relieved to see Su Feng's serious expression in the face of the "joke".
Su Feng and Knight Archibald will both be restricted free agents this summer. That said, it's no longer just a fantasy for the trio to join forces again.
Su Feng looked at Machico Gonzalez's distant back, and was fascinated. Why does that guy always have this inexplicable attraction?
"What are you staying for?" Alexis Sanchez patted Su Feng on the shoulder and brought Su Feng back to his senses.
"Nothing." Su Feng shook his head, how could he have such a terrible idea?
The Baltimore bullets "unexpectedly" lost to the Anderson packers, who were the first in the league at home, leaving Machico Gonzalez in a storm of public opinion again.
In the post-match press conference, Machico Gonzalez, as always, defended his players, taking most of the blame for the loss. And this will undoubtedly make the media attack even worse.
"Won't Machico Gonzalez look at the numbers? Doesn't he know the difference between 2.06 meters and 2.15 meters? ”
"Maybe Coach Machico Gonzalez thinks height is not the most important factor on the basketball court, but the truth is that the Baltimore bullet is completely suppressed by height on the court!"
"If it weren't for William Adams Miller's magic, maybe the Baltimore bullets would have lost even more. Machico Gonzalez is suitable for developing great talent in college basketball, but definitely not for professional basketball. ”
The next day, even some local media in the city of Marrakech couldn't help but blackmail their coaches. Yesterday's employment of Machico Gonzalez baffled many media outlets. He played Salinger, who is only 2.06 meters tall, as a center forward. They can guarantee that the guy's head must have been stuck in the locker room door!
But within the team, Angie agrees with Machico Gonzalez. Those laymen can never predict, and in fact, the ambiguity of position on the basketball court is inevitable. Machico Gonzalez is not understood simply because he is ahead of the majority.
