Chapter 142: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Dolph Shayce and Oscar Robertson sat behind the first-row tech desk, looking forward to Su Feng's appearance. In the luxurious box, Kuban arranged Oscar Robertson for a long time. As for Vignali, who has business activities, in the early morning in Italy, she also stares at the dark circles under her eyes and stares excitedly at the TV screen.

"The playoffs are back in the West Tooth Extraction. Audience, today's finale is about to begin! Elvin Johnson's voice was transmitted via satellite to the home of every West Extractor fan watching the game. Today, the NBA has a total of four playoff games scheduled, and this game between the Pittsburgh Irons and the Chicago Bucks is the latest start.

Marrakech City Anderson Packers and Moldovan Baltimore Bullets in the third quarter. The Waterloo Eagles vs. Hibergan Redskins match started 10 minutes ago, and now, considered the most suspenseful game of the first round, is about to begin.

"The last game of the day is about to start. I think the Chicago Bucks will do everything they can to win tonight. "Ahead of the game, Elvin Johnson's comments have already begun.

"The Pittsburgh Ironmen are not easy to defend." Knight Archibald looks at the starting lineup of the Pittsburgh Iron Force. Whoever kills them, they're defense experts! With 5 defenders making up the starting line-up, it must be said that Lionel Hollins' tactical thinking is truly special.

"No matter how strong the Pittsburgh Iron Men defense is, the Chicago Bucks will give it their all. Because, just now in the match between the Anderson packers and the Baltimore bullets, Knight Archibald withdrew with an injury

"What does Nate Archibald have to do with the Chicago Bucks, and Nate Archibald opened his hand blankly. Brin is not a commentator.

"Absolutely. Knight Archibald's injury meant that the Anderson packers' combat effectiveness was greatly compromised. After Gemini is missing, the Chicago Bucks meet Anderson Packers, and the victory will be even greater. If I told you yesterday that the Chicago Bucks could beat the Anderson Packers in the second round of the series to advance to the Western Conference Finals, you'd say my head is on the door. But when Nate Archibald was injured, it wasn't impossible for Elvin Johnson to think a little further. He's already predicting who will make it to the Western Conference Finals. However, the first game of the first round of the series has not yet begun.

Just as the fans were excited, two basketball stands at the Air Line Center Stadium suddenly burst into high columns of fire. Blazing fireworks lit up the stadium's temperature, and everyone shouted at the red lights.

In the next second, the Chicago Bucks all came out of the English Channel. Su Feng followed at the last end as always, but when he came out, the cheers were the loudest.

"Well, we're only two games away from the playoffs this season. Don't worry, boss, I'll send you tickets for next season's playoffs

"No, I don't want to run in two places. I'm looking forward to you playing in the playoffs! That way, I could see two people playing in one place at the same time, and Stevens patted Dolph Shayce on the shoulder. Although Dolph Shays's progress is not as "explosive" as Su Feng's, it is good enough. From a rookie off the bench to the team's main striker, Dolph Shays's growth has not been bad every step.

"I'm afraid you won't have time to watch the playoffs next season."

"Oh? How do you know that Tracy and I will have a second child. With a happy smile on his face, Stevens nudged Dolph Shayce with his elbow.

What the!? You want a second child! The next time your baby is born, you must invite me and you! Dolph Shayce looked surprised, apparently he didn't know anything about the second child.

"Hmmm... You don't seem to know ... How can you say I don't have time next year? ”

Hearing this, Dolph Shays looked mysteriously at the people around him, bringing his mouth close to Stevens' ear.

"I've heard that a lot of NBA teams have sent scouts to Butler this season

"Okay? Is it? Stevens was a little surprised. While Butler University has played well in team basketball this year, let's be honest, no particularly good players have caught the attention of NBA teams.

"Don't you ask me who they're looking for?"

"Maybe they're going to see Victor Oladibo at Indiana University and come and see us play?" Stevens made a joke.

"No, sir. They will check on you. ”

Dolph Shayce's words made Stevens suddenly open his mouth.

When Su Feng was changing clothes in the locker room, he received a message from Dolph Shayce and Stevens. These two are punctual every year.

Putting down the phone, Su Feng continued to focus on the game itself. After two days of training, the Anderson packers have developed a set of tactics to deal with the Grizzlies' tight defense. Su Feng was also eager to try, because there was no doubt that the key to this set of tactics was himself!

The Grizzlies' current coach, Lionel Hollins, has led the team for many years and built the Grizzlies into a team that excels defensively. They are one of the best defensive teams in the league, both inside and outside. A few years ago, the Grizzlies' number one man was small forward Rudy Gay. Now, the Grizzlies are led by the "Black and White Bears," ———with Randolph and Gasol and "White Bear" Gasol Jr. saying that their "twin towers" are the strongest interior in the NBA today, and no one will object.

The Grizzlies were beaten in the first round of the playoffs last year

After seven eliminations, the comeback this season, especially in the middle of the season, was a decisive deal. Compared to Rudy Gay, Prince is not outstanding in terms of age, scoring ability, athleticism, and court appealability, but most importantly, he is better suited to the current Grizzlies. The addition of Prince not only made the Grizzlies' offense more balanced, but it also further improved their defensive capabilities, which is especially critical in the playoffs.

No one could have imagined that after ditching the two superstars of Guy and Mayo, the Grizzlies would get better and better. It proved to be a shortcut to the title, but it wasn't the only way out.

Clyde Drexler, who had just been interviewed by reporters, squeezed in while the team was changing. Seeing that the players were almost on time, the academy coach also applauded.

"I repeat, while the Grizzlies are only sixth in the West, they are not soft persimmons! In the first round of the playoffs last year, we could happily sweep the Clippers away! But this year, you can't play with the mentality of killing your opponent easily. The Memphis Grizzlies don't have superstars, they don't have a huge market, there's no news worth hype. But they had a down-to-earth heart ready to win the game, Clyde Drexler said this, deliberately looking at Mayo. But Mayo remained calm and didn't seem to be infected at all.

It's no wonder the Grizzlies decided not to renew Mayo last summer. Mayo's personality completely goes against the Grizzlies' team culture.

"So today, you have to concentrate. Otherwise, the Grizzlies' defense won't be so easy to break

Ray Allen is gone, Garnett, Pierce and Terry are all old, and Rondo has lost his season and is in a state of disarray. It's impossible to predict what the team will look like next season, let alone the championship.

The Rivers guy, who just didn't want to take on the Boston Celtics, was back.

"I will, Angie, and the players and I will prove that we are still competitive!" Rivers said and turned to leave.

Angie rubbed her temples and her head started to hurt.

Angie is well aware that Rivers is reluctant to go through a rebuild with the team. The Clippers have made initial contact with the Celtics in hopes of acquiring the coach in a trade.

The Clippers have Paul and Griffin, and they agreed to hand Rivers over to management. Such conditions can be said to be very attractive. While Angie doesn't want Rivers to leave, the truth is that he must now start looking for the next manager.

Angie actually has only one name left on the list of candidates for the next manager.

Managers are not only good at tactics, but they also know how to do the best with limited resources. On top of that, the addition of a head coach could directly attract a West Tooth guard who is a candidate for Celtics' Player of the Year award? Instead of continuing to expect Rondo as an eccentric, put the treasure on that guy.

Angie took a cup of coffee. It's best to plan early in the summer

"Are you ready, my dear, it's going to be a traffic jam in a moment."

"Brady, wait a minute. See your toy? ”

"Toy dogs? Didn't you already have it in the cupboard? ”

"Oh? Then there's nothing to clean up. Come on, let's go, a woman with short blonde hair and a little boy in her arms got into the car. Before he closed the door, the man scanned the room to see if there was anything he had forgotten. But in the end, his eyes fell on the NCAA championship trophy.

The domestic championship trophy is just a fake, and the real trophy is now in the exhibition hall of Butler University. Although this trophy has been present in his life for three years, every time he sees it, the handsome young man always smiles.

"Hey, Brad, didn't you say it's almost time to get stuck in traffic?" Stevens had been shouting outside the window for a long time.

"Okay, we're here." Stevens closed the door and smiled as he pulled out his car keys.

"Are the tickets ready?"

"Already in the car." Stevens pulled out two tickets from the locker at the front desk. On the itinerary, it says "Indianapolis to Moldova, Texas." ”

Su Feng, how can we miss your playoffs?

※※※

Every year when the playoffs come, Su Feng's friends get together. Because by the time the playoffs start, most people have already started their vacations. But unfortunately, due to the busy playoffs, Su Feng didn't have much time to spend with them every time.

This year, Dolph Shays and Stevens will still be coming to Moldova, starting with Su Feng's first playoff game and working their way to the end.

Dolph Shays hasn't played in the playoffs yet, and Stevens has a lot of free time after his crazy march.

It seems that every year when it comes to the playoffs, it becomes a day for everyone to get together. This particular way of reuniting has been going on for three years.

"Hahaha, Gordon, I thought I'd be in Salt Lake City this year." After meeting Dolph Shays at Moldova International Airport, Stevens was as happy as seeing his own child.

"We understand, sir!" The Anderson Packers team worked together to answer this question, Clyde Drexler. I am happy. At least for now, the atmosphere in the team is good.

"Dirk Nassim Bernstein has a much higher status in the Anderson Packers than Su Feng, but there is no doubt that Anderson Packers fans prefer Su Feng now", looking at Su Feng, who is admired by the fans, Christen

Hudson couldn't help but feel the speed at which time passed. Nassim Bernstein grew old unconsciously. Fortunately, the Moldovan Anderson packers found a successor to the German tank.

"It's been amazing. I don't know if they'll be able to laugh once the game starts. "Zach, Randolph, used to complain about the crazy worship of the fans on the field.

As soon as Su Feng got the ball outside the three-point line, Conley and Tony Allen caught the ball with open arms. Su Feng couldn't see a chance to break through, so he passed the ball to Jumabai Davenport, who was cleared by Tony Allen.

"Run, run! Don't think you can take it lightly after the regular season. The real battle had just begun, and on the training ground at the American Aviation Center Stadium, Clyde Drexler's voice was already hoarse, but it still couldn't stop him from dancing and shouting on the sidelines.

Su Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead. Now he doesn't have time to think about the ownership of the best players. How to prepare more effectively for the series against the Grizzlies is a problem that Su Feng is concentrating on.

"Kaman, your selection and scrolling are still too slow! Remember, the cover must be decisive and fast! The Grizzlies are only 18th in the league in offensive efficiency, but why did they finish sixth in the West to make the playoffs? Because they rank second in the league in defensive efficiency! Never before have we faced such a fierce defense in the last few days. So, the offensive side wanted me to play more fluidly, to have a chance to shoot from the outside, and not to take the ball inside

It can be seen that Clyde Drexler is still interested in the Grizzlies.

Looking back on the growth of the Grizzlies, we have to say that they have achieved today's results step by step. The Vancouver Grizzlies were a well-known bad team in the league at the time. After moving to Memphis, although the team has young core players such as Pau Gasol and Jason Williams, and has made the playoffs for two consecutive years under the guidance of head coaches Herbie Brown and Vlatro, they have been eliminated by the Spurs and Suns by 40 respectively.

Since acquiring Rudy Gay in the summer of 2006, the Grizzlies have officially entered a rebuilding phase. From 2007 to 2010, they acquired Mike Conley, Marc Gasol and other core players for the Grizzlies through drafts and trades. In the 2010-2011 season, the addition of Tony Allen allowed the Grizzlies to return to the playoffs after five years. And that year, they created the "Black Eight" miracle in the first round and eliminated the first Spurs team in the West.

The Grizzlies' coming-of-age history is just a living, inspiring script. This group of people used to be able to take out eight spurs. This year, God knows how the third Anderson packer in the West will be beaten by the Grizzlies.

Clyde Drexler knows that the Grizzlies are by no means an underdog. They may be unknown compared to the Spurs, Thunder, and Clippers, but they're not ordinary people.

The media said that the Anderson Packers could easily break through the first round, and Clyde Drexler dismissed it as irresponsible nonsense. The best thing the Grizzlies have done this year is to let go of singles stars like Mayo and Gay. Without these two guys, it's clear that the Grizzlies' tactical execution has improved.

Thinking of this, Clyde Drexler subconsciously looked at Mayo. The empty-eyed guy gained a lot of weight at the start of the season. A professional player can't keep even the most basic body shape, can you expect this young man to make a difference in the playoffs?

Mayo still hasn't woken up, and Nassim Bernstein is bound to struggle under the attack of the "black and white" bear. Su Feng, this series may depend on you

※※※

While the series hasn't started yet, the Celtics are ranked seventh in the East with just 41 wins this year and are considered a huge failure this season.

For some teams, getting into the playoffs is already a win. But for a traditional giant like Celtic, without a title, it's a failure!

Luckily, the Lakers haven't had a good season this season. Celtics general manager Danny Ainge breathed a sigh of relief to see the West's biggest rival catch the final train to the playoffs.

Just as Angie was analyzing the possible changes this summer, Doug Rivers rudely knocked on the door of Angie's office. Drake's voice coach looked furious. The playoffs haven't started yet. What makes him so angry? In fact, before Rivers could speak, Angie knew why.

"I've heard some rumors, Danny."

"What rumors?" Angie knows why.

"I've heard that the team is going to rebuild next season and even give up Kevin and Paul!" Rivers clenched Angie's table with both hands.

"I don't know where you heard about it, but ... Yes, the team has such a plan. ”

"Rebuild!? Oh my God, we're still a playoff team this year! When Rajan Rondo returns next season, we can still go to the championship! With just one or two more defensive blue-collar signings this summer, we can dominate the league again, and Championship coach Doc Rivers has no way to rebuild.

"Hey, we'll talk after the playoffs."

Anderson's packer record is undoubtedly reminiscent of Nash, who won the regular season player of the year two years in a row. Back then, the Suns had Nash and didn't have Nash. They are a team of two levels. Now the Anderson packers in Moldova, why not?

Nash used his lanky body to snatch the Player of the Year trophy from a crowd of beasts for the second season in a row. Su Feng, why not?
