Chapter 387: The Best Game Requires the Best Players (6000 words, ask for a monthly ticket~!) )

As the so-called education has to start from the baby.

At halftime, in order to avoid Stephen Curry following in the footsteps of Artai and Pierce in the future, before returning to the locker room to rest, Su Feng and Curry Sr. joined forces to conduct a five-minute ideological education on Stephen Curry, who was only 11 years old at the time.

Originally, Stephen Curry, who "would rather die than give in", was going to fight the evil dad and Uncle Melon to the end.

But under the offensive of Lao Curry's "half of his pocket money" and Su Feng's "double his pocket money", ......

What do you think young Stephen Curry can do but surrender obediently?

Farewell, my dear Uncle Vince!

From today onwards, from this moment on, you will never hear the cheers Stephen Curry gives you again!

"Seth, actually, from a very early stage, I thought Uncle Melon's dunk was better than Uncle Vinnce, do you think so too?" In the back row of the Raptors' bench, Stephen Curry, who decided to be a man again, looked at his younger brother Seth Curry and said.

Seth: "......"

Look to the sky!

Is this the power of money?

In the Raptors' locker room, after contentedly reversing Stephen Curry's beliefs......

Tonight, Su Feng once again felt the "stench" of money.

However, rather than gaining a small fan of Stephen Curry, at the moment, Su Feng is more concerned about how to win this G1 battle with the Celtics.

You must know that after the first half of tonight's game, without even Su Feng's mobilization, the other players of the Raptors have already felt the pressure of this round of Eastern Finals.

Obviously, compared with last year, this year's Celtics are very close to the current Raptors in terms of strength and state.

From the perspective of personnel alignment, in the first half of the game, Maddy's advantage over Marbury was still obvious.

But through high-speed rotation to assist defense, it is difficult for Maddie, who has not yet reached his peak at this time, to complete Marbury one-on-one.

And in the face of Ma Dun's almost unsolvable blocking, Maddie's weaknesses on the defensive end were exposed.

Due to the high center of gravity, Maddie's ankle was tested throughout the first half.

Therefore, in this way, the pair of Maddie and Marbury has become a set of five-five matchups.

And Carter and Ray Allen's pair is the same.

When attacking, relying on the brutal and unreasonable physique to crush, Ray Allen will be erased by Carter if he is not paying attention when defending Carter.

But on the other hand, Ray Allen's running position always makes Carter, who is easily distracted when defending, take care of one or the other.

At the end of the first half, Davis was clear that the only advantage left for the Raptors over the Celtics was the bench.

However, because of the playoffs, everyone generally chooses to die in the relationship, so how much energy can the Raptors' bench play in this series......

In Davis' view, it all depends on whether the Raptors can survive the first few games in this series.

Because now the situation in this round of playoffs has become clear with the decisions that the two teams will take in this round of playoffs.

The Raptors have chosen to add more bench players to the rotation of this round of Eastern Conference finals, which can not only keep the main players in excellent physical condition, but also leave more possibilities for the next games.

And although the Celtics are also trying to rest the main players as much as possible, because they don't have as many tool men as the Raptors, so in this round of the playoffs, as long as the Raptors can play back, then it will be the Raptors who will have the upper hand.

"John, I'm not questioning your decision, but if our benches can't withstand the pressure of the game, can we really wait until the next showdown with the Celtics?"

In the Raptors' locker room, looking at John Davis, whose face was full of confidence, D'Antoni gave his doubts.

In fact, long before the start of this series, D'Antoni was the most determined "dead-end workhorse" in the Raptors.

Because in D'Antoni's view, the Celtics, who have just played six games in the Eastern Conference semifinals with the Pacers, will not be able to dominate the physical advantage in the first two games.

Therefore, D'Antoni believes that the Raptors should seize the opportunity to win the first two games quickly with the strongest lineup and establish the advantage of this series in one fell swoop.

Unfortunately, Davis did not take D'Antoni's advice.

Because Davis is well aware that while D'Antoni's proposal is somewhat feasible, then the Raptors will only have to take more risk on their championship journey this year.

Moreover, who said that the Raptors' bench can't withstand the Celtics?

After halftime, patting D'Antoni on the shoulder, Davies smiled confidently: "Mike, you know what, if we don't have Sue, then I will definitely take your advice." ”

Hearing this, with the direction of Davis's finger, D'Antoni's eyes looked at the Raptors No. 23 who had already stepped on the court at this time.

At the same time, on the Celtics' bench, Auerbach, who had returned to the court one step ahead of the Raptors coaching staff, was also looking at Su Feng back and forth at the moment.

Su Feng, what kind of player is he?

To tell the truth, even if Auerbach is asked to choose one of O'Neill, Duncan and Su Feng at this moment, Auerbach will definitely choose O'Neill or Duncan instead of Su Feng.

But if you were to say that of the three, Auerbach would least want to be the Celtic's opponent......

Then Auerbach will definitely choose Su Feng.

On the pitch, after the half-time break, the game resumed.

Bang, bang, bang.

As soon as he came up, Su Feng used his solid muscles on the flank to educate Ah Tai again.

As early as last year, when he helped Boss Qiao recover his state, Su Feng learned the correct way to use his strength from Boss Qiao.

Tough and reckless, that's a move that children only use in fights.

And the real back beating, in Su Feng's opinion, actually relies on wave after wave without the same rhythm.

It is impossible for the young Atai to stop Su Feng's routine, because as a back-to-back mille-feuille, often as soon as Atai guesses Su Feng's next move, Su Feng has already taken a step ahead of Atai and completed his next move.

Swish!

A delicate step-back jumper.

52 to 59.

This was Su Feng's 21st point on the night.

And back, the Celtics attacked, and Duncan was also caught between Big Ben and O'Neal Jr., and successfully distributed the ball to his interior partner Peter Tapan.

Bang, bang.

54 to 59.

TNT TV, Kenny Smith said with emotion: "Sue and Thiem both played as stars tonight, to be honest, in my opinion, no matter what the result is, Sue and Tim deserve a ticket to the finals." ”

On the side, Derek chimed in: "But unfortunately, there is only one such ticket." ”

Competitive sports, perhaps the most brutal place is here.

Because no matter how good your performance is before, there is only one team that can have the last laugh in the end.

In the center of the route, after Su Feng's high jumper knocked out of the frame, the Raptors fans on the scene couldn't remember the last time they were so nervous like tonight......

Fortunately, in the coming back, O'Neal Jr. and Big Ben finally managed to defend Duncan once.

Due to the clever timing of Big Ben's pinch in the final moments, Duncan could not choose to split the ball in the first place.

Therefore, before being whistled for three seconds, Duncan had to hook the ball to the rebound with his signature old man hook hand.

However, the rebound didn't heed Duncan's call this time.

After O'Neal Jr. protected the rebound, the Raptors took advantage of the situation to push and counterattack.

It's just that how quickly the Raptors' counterattack pushes, how quickly the Celtics' defense retreats.

Poop!

On the court, Carter's counter-attacking three-pointer failed to hit with Ray Allen's interference.

Immediately afterward, Marbury's high jumper after the pick-and-roll also deflected off the rim.

In the third quarter of the game, after the break, it was obvious that the players of both teams had not yet found the touch of the first half.

In addition, because defense affects the relationship between shooting percentages, the consistency of the pitchers' shots has decreased after the two teams have become more and more physically contacted.

In the NBA, especially in the playoffs, the reason why the game becomes a turn-based game most of the time is because in the playoffs, in order to pursue stability and reduce mistakes, everyone will reduce the passing and cutting cooperation accordingly.

In the first half of the third quarter, when both teams maintained extremely high concentration on the defensive end, it was not until there were 8 minutes and 11 seconds left in the third quarter that Su Feng broke the deadlock on the court with his own hands.

A handsome and explosive maple pull.

And on the field, looking at Su Feng's "helpless" expression after scoring the goal, at this moment, if it weren't for reason taking over, then Atai would definitely have to launch a Makogora against Su Feng.

Of course, Atai may not believe it when he says it......

Su Feng's "helplessness" is really not pretending.

Because the ghost knows, on this night, how much iron value did Su Feng lose?

"Come on, don't give up!" When retreating, Su Feng did not forget to encourage Atai Dao.

Atai: "......"

One thing to say, in Atai's eyes, a senior like Su Feng is simply not too bad in character.

However, how did the young Ah Tai know that Su Feng was really serious about encouraging him?

You must know that compared with Han Han, who was only worth a few thousand iron points at the beginning of the season, the current Atai gave Su Feng a counterpoint iron value that is about to exceed 10,000.

Therefore, it is too late for Su Feng to "love" him for such an excellent junior, how could he bully him out of his previous revenge for his "disrespectfulness"?

To put it bluntly, since the retirement of the old hooligan, Su Feng found that now, including in the next year or two, especially most of the outside stars in the league are still in this stage of growth, and his progress in gaining iron value cannot be compared with when the old hooligan was still there.

Therefore, as a man who aspires to surpass Michael Jordan, in Su Feng's opinion, it is time for him to help these outside stars accelerate their growth.

Beep!

On the court, after the Celtics also broke the deadlock by Duncan, Su Feng, in turn, took advantage of a mistake by Artay in the attack and successfully created a foul on Artay.

It is worth mentioning that when he walked to the free throw line, Su Feng also pointed out to Atai that he had just been deficient in defense.

Atai: "......"

This......

Is this thing teaching me how to do things?

It's a pity that on the side, after listening to Su Feng's explanation, although Duncan also felt that Su Feng's move was a bit of a cup......

But to be honest, Duncan really didn't think there was anything wrong with what Su Feng said.

"Alas, in this league, if there are a few more excellent seniors like me, then why should the NBA worry about star disconnection in the future?" When he walked to the free throw line, Su Feng sighed silently.

As the saying goes, if you do a good deed a day, you will achieve three thousand.

After the two punishments were all in, Su Feng felt that in the future, after his death, if a great good person like him was taken to cremation, at least 81 relics would have to be burned to be worthy of the good deeds he had done.

It's a pity......

If you want to use love to influence the young Atai, it is obviously an unlikely thing.

On the court, under the stimulation of Su Feng, at both offensive and defensive ends, Atai increased his revenge on Su Feng.

It's just that......

"Use Bruce to replace Ron."

On the Celtic bench, Auerbach, who noticed that Altai had committed four fouls, told Celtic coach Millercar.

Hearing this, Karl sighed and said, "Sue is too cunning. ”

Auerbach nodded and said, "Tonight, Sue taught all of us a lesson. ”

As a legendary coach of a generation, Auerbach, who has seen countless big scenes in the past, knows very well that at a critical moment like this when the two teams are fighting for bayonets, the side that can stabilize the score will definitely be able to grasp the initiative in the game.

And free throws are undoubtedly the most stable way to score points in this situation.

Before the start of this year's playoffs, Auerbach originally thought that Artai would be able to use his ferocious defense to make Su Feng lose his judgment of the game.

But at this moment......

The enraged party turned into Atay instead.

Is this Su Feng?

Compared with last year's Su Feng, in Auerbach's opinion, this year's Su Feng is a step up from last year in all aspects.

And most crucially......

He's only 22 years old.

What is the future of Temo......

If he had been allowed to grow up for a few more years, in Auerbach's opinion, no one in the league would have been able to control him.

On the pitch, taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity, Celtic replaced Artey with Bowen.

And just after the Raptors relied on Su Feng to score 8 points with free throws one after another, the pressure had been on the Celtics' side at this time.

In the tormenting third quarter of the game, the Celtics' weaknesses after the previous battle with the Pacers were exposed.

However, at the moment of crisis, Tim Duncan stepped up again and defended the last hope for the Celtics.

In Su Feng's previous life, before Yao Ming entered the league, as the number one pressure king in the NBA, in countless matchups with O'Neal, you can often see Duncan being beaten by O'Neal and helpless.

However, even so, Duncan never bowed to O'Neal during the game.

From 1999 to 2007, Duncan and O'Neal's team won eight championships in the last nine seasons.

Among them, Duncan got 4 times, and O'Neal also got 4 times.

Therefore, O'Neill also complained when he was a commentator in the future.

If it weren't for that damn Duncan, he would have won at least eight championships.

Jie: Tim Duncan.

A player who debuted at the top of his game and was full of resilience talent.

In the second half of the third quarter, relying on Duncan's several solo successes, as well as his solid and steady play in blocking and defense, the Celtics successfully survived this difficult physical pole.

At the end of the third quarter, although they were still 7 points behind the Raptors, in front of the TV, almost all Celtics fans believed that they had the hope of creating a "surprise" for the top favorite to win the championship in this G1 game.

Looking at the scoreboard of 73-80, Su Feng, who had played the full 36 minutes, could be regarded as understanding why O'Neal and Duncan would join forces to create so many "uncrowned kings" in his previous life.

Because these two people ......

Ahh

These two bugs are simply more difficult to deal with than the other.

On the bench of the Raptors, before the start of the fourth quarter of the game, looking at Su Feng, who had begun to show fatigue, Davis asked the assistant coach to massage Su Feng and asked Su Feng for his opinion on whether he needed to rest.

"Coach, no matter how many times you ask me, I'm the answer, you know." After adjusting his breathing, Su Feng said to Davis.

Hearing this, Davis shook Su Feng's hands affectionately and said, "I'll leave it to you, our superstar." ”

On the Celtics' bench, in the fourth quarter of the game, when noticing that Su Feng was still not resting, Auerbach almost didn't cough up a mouthful of old phlegm on Miller's face.

No......

In a normal NBA game, you don't have to rest.

But tonight......

Oh my God, we Celts, what kind of monster are we facing on this night!

But anyone who watched the first three quarters of tonight's game will be able to appreciate Auerbach's mood at this moment.

Because of the first three quarters of the game, Su Feng didn't just shoulder the burden of the Raptors on the offensive end.

On the defensive end, he's also the Raptors' perimeter defensive core.

Therefore, in the fourth quarter of the game, when Su Feng was still on the court, TNT, Kenny Smith bluntly said, "I have no intention of offending Coach John Davis......

But to be honest, if I was given a Sue, then I felt like I could be the best coach as well. ”

On the side, Derek laughed and said, "What if you and Larry Brown are half a pound?" ”

Bang!

In front of the TV, after hearing Derek's complaint, someone who was watching this year's playoffs suddenly smashed the TV screen directly with the remote control.

At the Center Arena of the route, with the start of the fourth quarter of the game, the Raptors fans on the scene were also expressing their extraordinary love for Su Feng in their own ways.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Ray Allen missed an open three-point opportunity as soon as he came up.

In the second half, as the physical exertion intensified, Ray Allen's shooting rate from beyond the three-point line was far less efficient than he was in the first half.

And back, the Raptors attacked, and the Celtics bench, almost without thinking about it, Duncan ripped off the towel draped over his shoulders.

Because......

With two steps away from the three-point line, in front of Bruce Bowen, Su Feng decisively completed a shot.

Three points?

No......

It's not just a three-pointer.

Because long before deciding to invest in waves, Su Feng had completed the trade-off in his heart.

Not entering?

Doesn't matter.

Because the Raptors led the Celtics by 7 points in the fourth quarter, even if this goal was not scored, Su Feng could scare the Celtics into a cold sweat.

And once in......

Then this shot is more than just a three-pointer.

Swish!

73 to 83!

At the moment when the basketball swept through the net, no amount of words could express the feelings of the nearly 20,000 Raptors fans at the scene.

“mvp!!”

“mvp!!”

“mvp!!”

"Hey, I mean, how long are you going to let Tim rest? I haven't had enough of him......"

On the court, after shooting through Bruce Bowen in the face, Su Feng spread his hands and walked straight to the Celtics bench.

And at this moment, even Artest, who has always been short-tempered, has to admit that for the first time in his life, he has developed a mood called fear for a basketball player.

Every time Tim Duncan creates hope, the man is able to turn it into despair in the next second.

This is the youngest two-time MVP achievement creator in NBA history......

Is this the youngest regular season MVP winner in NBA history?

Just like when Su Feng entered the league, he shouted that he was going to beat Michael Jordan......

In front of the TV, at this moment, the ghost knows how many young people have the idea of impatiently wanting to join the alliance because of him.

Let's go to the NBA!

Because there's Su Feng there!

If you can fight Su Feng at his peak......

So why not?

On the Celtics' bench, after Su Feng's provocation, Tim Duncan patted Auerbach on the shoulder affectionately, and then walked to the technical table with his unremarkable steps.

Maybe in a person's life, there will be countless Su Feng who stand up to block your way.

But as long as you can step past him, then the future is the end of the journey.

If you want to fight, I will fight.

There is no superfluous dialogue, this is Tim Duncan's response to Su Feng on May 21, 2000.

It's just different from last year......

This year, Duncan has a few more teammates who are just as determined as him.

"We're going to win the championship together, Tim." Marbury, who patted Duncan on the back and stood up from the bench with Duncan, laughed.

"I won't be by him anymore." Staring at the Raptors No. 23 on the court, Artai said seriously.

"Maybe I can't cover the sky with one hand like you do, but Tim, I still have three more foul chances." Ukrainian flesh wall Peter Tapan laughed.

At this moment, even Duncan, who was not smiling, showed a touching smile.

Maybe this year, the Celtics won't be able to stop the desperately powerful Raptors.

But so what?

Giving everything you have, gambling everything on the sports and career you love, this is the most romantic thing for a man!

Beep!

On the court, because Bowen's pass was cut off the sideline by Su Feng, the Celtics asked for a substitution.

At the same time, on the Raptors' side, Carter, Maddy, and Big Ben were also replaced by Davis.

"John, didn't you plan to ...... before" Looking at John Davis, whose face was shaking back and forth, D'Antoni asked with a puzzled expression.

However, before D'Antoni could finish speaking, Davis interrupted with a wave of his hand.

"Plans can never catch up with change.

Mike, it's the best game of the year so far, so it needs the best players. Davis said.
