The day after the Raptors took a 3-1 lead over the Celtics, the American media once again played their traditional game, which was ......

———— repeatedly jumps sideways.

Previously, after the G3 battle between the Raptors and the Celtics, you must know that the American media once played a headline like "Glory Will Eventually Return, and Look at How the Celtics Overturn the Raptors' Domination".

And yet now......

The headlines are almost all about "The King of Toronto is leading his 'Invincible Armada' home".

According to the schedule, the next G5 game between the Raptors and the Celtics will start in Toronto on the 31st.

Since there is only one day between the G5 and G4 games, it seems that the Raptors are already a sure thing to get their tickets to the Finals......

And on the 30th, when Su Feng and the team returned to Toronto to prepare for the G5 game with the Celtics tomorrow night, the West, in the G4 battle with the Trail Blazers, relying on the steady play of the "OK" combination, the Lakers swept away the previous decline in the G2 battle, and after Portland won two cities in a row, they also won the match point of this round of Western Finals with a score of 3-1.

Online, more and more American fans have begun to talk about the finals that follow.

After all, if this situation continues, then the Raptors and Lakers meeting in the Finals for the second year in a row is already the focus of attention.

However, on the 31st......

At the Toronto Route Center Arena, where could the young Rivers and D'Antoni have imagined that the progress of this round of Eastern Conference finals between the Raptors and the Celtics would unfold according to Davis's prediction......

In the fifth game, Celtic, who completely lost their home advantage, showed their tenacious side in Canada.

Not only did they play more relaxed than the Raptors on the offensive end, but they also played their best defensive performance of the series so far on the defensive end.

In fact, according to the strategy developed by Davis in this series, the Raptors have been invincible on an objective level.

However, the reason why Davis thinks that this series is still not over after the fourth game between the two sides is because he knows very well that with the team leading the Celtics 3-1, it is still not easy for the Raptors to give the ambitious Celtics a fatal blow.

To put it bluntly, if the rabbit is forced to be in a hurry, it will also bite.

In the first quarter of the game, under the leadership of Su Feng, the Raptors, who fell into the "iron monster circle", were beaten 30-19 by the Celtics as soon as they came up.

In the second quarter of the game, although the Raptors recovered a lot of points, the Celtics still entered the second half with a 56-51 lead.

In the second half of the most competitive game between the two sides, the Celtics, who were unwilling to be eliminated, were led by Ray Allen and Marbury to set off a wave of three-point rain on the outside.

As a result, it was with this 10-point advantage that was re-established in the third quarter that the Celtics once again gave their fans hope of a comeback.

In the end, 106-96, the Celtics successfully won the Raptors in the G5 game, and in the next game, that is, the G6 game between the two sides will return to Boston, the probability of the Celtics dragging the Raptors into the tiebreaker is undoubtedly greatly increased.

And it is worth mentioning that in the first time after this game, Rivers and D'Antoni both set their eyes on Davis.

John, the great prophet, what kind of prophecy are you going to make now?

"Don't worry too much, although we will be away in the next game, the initiative is still in our hands." After the somewhat regrettable G5 battle, Davis said to his "Wolong" and "Phoenix Chick".

And when you hear it, don't believe it......

Rivers and D'Antoni feel like the Raptors are ready to open champagne......

……

Looking at the first five battles of this year's Eastern Finals, I have to say that the combat effectiveness shown by this young Celtic team has made Su Feng deeply feel the terrible ...... of this era that he personally led to the rampaging era

If it is said that when Heiba killed Jordan and his bull back then, Su Feng could still enjoy the benefits of the "traverser".

This time, in this round of the series with the Celtics, in Su Feng's opinion, the tactics played by the two teams in the first five games have completely surpassed this era.

Don't look at Su Feng's original time and space, the NBA in the next ten years seems to be no different from the current NBA......

But in fact, there is a very different difference between the concept of using the three-point shot and the use of space on the court.

It's as if before the start of World War II, the French were still fantasizing that they could hold back the German offensive with the Maginot Line and the trenches.

At that time, the tactical concept of the French, apparently, did not keep up with the development of weapons and equipment.

And the NBA is much the same.

Because although the rules at this time will have certain restrictions on some tactics, such as three-point shooting, in fact, for shooters in this era, it is not entirely the rules that prevent them from going to the sky.

Take Alan Houston, the "king of mid-pitching", for example.

A pitcher who can shoot more than 45% from the field all year round under the HC rule, and who has shot 40% from the field for many seasons in his career, does the HC rule really have a big impact on him as much as Van Gundy made him have to shoot three-pointers?

The answer is obvious.

In this life, after the Raptors won the championship last season, the appearance of Su Feng has changed the biggest thing in this era......

The Raptors have managed to shorten the process that would otherwise take a lot of time for these NBA coaches to settle.

Therefore, there is also a picture of the Celtics this season, copying the core tactics of the Raptors while fighting against the Raptors.

However, no matter how terrible the future is......

Grasping the moment is still the top priority for Su Feng.

Anyway......

The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.

In this time and space when Kobe Bryant has become a "magician", Su Feng knows very well that he can only fight his way out by "striking iron by his own hardness".

……

On the 1st, the whole Raptors team, which was dragged into Game 6 by the Celtics, came to Boston again.

And on the same day, a scene that shocked Su Feng happened.

Because in Los Angeles......

Kobe, who was repeatedly suppressed by Pippen Sr. in the game......

"Hell, is this really the Kobe I know?"

In the hotel room, Sukamai and others, who had previously used Kobe's performance in this round of Western Finals as a daily joke, almost unanimously turned off their mobile phones at the first time.

You may not believe it when you say it......

On the night of the 1st, "The Magician" wore the number 8 to play in Staples.

In the fifth game with the Trail Blazers, when O'Neal was surrounded by the Trail Blazers' meat shields, Kobe Bryant became the key man who changed the tide of the war.

If Su Feng remembers correctly, according to the script of his previous life, the Trail Blazers should have won two cities in a row in the next game and pushed the Lakers into a desperate situation in the tiebreaker.

However......

Under the leadership of Kobe, the group of CBA teammates next to O'Neal ushered in a big explosion in this game.

In this game, the Lakers made a total of 12 three-pointers.

Under Kobe's internal and external tandem, the Lakers, who had been passive, played a wave of 15-2 attack climax in the fourth quarter of the game.

And thanks to the excellent performance of the Lakers' outside line, O'Neal also successfully liberated in the last moments of the game.

In the end, 97-105, the Lakers killed the series in Game 5.

And Kobe, who contributed 20 points, 11 rebounds, and 14 assists in the whole game, was highly praised by Phil Jackson after the game that his understanding of basketball was not below Jordan.

"A lot of people have been saying lately that if the Lakers had picked Sue instead of Kobe, maybe I would have won the championship a long time ago.

But I still want to say that in my opinion, Kobe Bryant is far stronger than Sue. ”

In addition, in an interview after the game, O'Neal, who has worn the Western Conference champion hat for two consecutive years, did not forget to connect with Su Feng remotely.

There is one thing to say......

Just about the fact that the Lakers reached the Finals before the Raptors......

Su Feng couldn't accept it.

Because of Kobe Bryant......

It's just outrageous paranoia!

No......

If you don't do a good history of the Iron King, you run to learn the "magician......

Jienyima, he has no future!

"It's a magical world."

After the Lakers took the lead in advancing to the finals, turned off the TV, and Su Feng, who was lying on the bed, couldn't calm down for a long time.

……

On the 2nd, after the Lakers got the ticket to the Finals, now the pressure has been on the Raptors' side.

In the evening, at the North Shore Garden Arena, during the team's pre-game warm-up, I don't know why, young Nash always felt that there were three Saiyans standing next to him.

Su Feng, Carter, Maddy......

Although he couldn't see or touch, whenever Nash tried to get close to the three of them, he could feel the terrible heat from the three of them.

Facts have proved that the way of heaven is good for reincarnation, and the sky bypasses whom.

Early this morning, the three people who had just turned on their mobile phones saw the message Kobe Bryant sent to them last night.

And then......

There is no then.

The three of Sukamai, who were ridiculed, turned on Saiyan mode almost instantly.

"I don't need to say more about the importance of tonight's game, right?" On the court, holding Maddie with his left hand and Carter with his right hand, Su Feng said with a serious face.

Hearing this, Carter and Maddie both clenched their fists after nodding.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the G6 battle of the East Finals was about to start.

Outcome......

Rivers and D'Antoni felt that they were not only not surprised at all, but even wanted to laugh a little.

Because......

As Davis expected, the Celtics, who were already at the end of their power, were completely unable to stop the Raptors in this game.

It's just that......

What puzzled D'Antoni and Rivers was that the Raptors who were playing at home at that time would have a better advantage in the G5 game, but why did Davis's judgment of the game format be so different?

On the Raptors' bench, after the Raptors had already established a 20-point lead in the first three quarters, Davis patted D'Anthony and Rivers on the shoulder and smiled, "Gentlemen, I think we can open the champagne now." ”

In fact, the reason why Davis has a different judgment of this series after each game in this series is not because he can predict the future.

And it is precisely because he cannot predict the prophet that he makes such a judgment.

After the G1 game between the two teams, because the Raptors won the game in a passive situation, Davis firmly believes that the Raptors will regain the initiative in this series after he changes his tactics against the Celtics in the next game.

However, after the G2 game, although the Raptors led 2-0 at the time, in turn, Auerbach's "strong man's broken wrist" also made Davis feel the horror of this "cardinal".

Coupled with Boston's prestigious home court, Davis thinks this series is far from happy.

However, this situation, with the G3 battle, the Raptors relied on Su Feng to further consume the physical energy of the Celtics, and it changed again.

Because in a short period of time, Davis is confident that the Raptors' physical fitness will help them gain the upper hand in this series.

As a result, the comprehensive rout of the Celtics in the fourth game undoubtedly confirmed Davis's judgment on this series.

However, before the G5 game, knowing that the Celtics also had a high ceiling, Davis knew very well that once the Raptors were in a hurry in the game, they could easily be seized by the Celtics and win back in a desperate situation.

Overall, however, even if the Celtics pull back a game in G5, they won't be able to change the fact that they are already at the end of the series.

Therefore......

In Davis' opinion, where is he in this series?

"If it weren't for Sue, we would be in a very different situation." On the court, in the fourth quarter of the game, after the Celtics withdrew the main force, Davis silently sighed.

North Shore Garden Arena, in the end, the Raptors won the game 109-91.

At the same time, they also managed to enter the finals with a score of 4-2 for two consecutive years.

In the whole game, Su Feng got 28 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block.

Maddy had 20 points, seven rebounds and five assists.

Carter came off the bench and contributed 24 points, six rebounds and three assists.

In the fourth quarter of the game, when being substituted, the young Duncan covered his head with a towel without saying a word.

And Auerbach, after a long sigh, also looked at the Raptors' bench.

Perhaps, in the eyes of others, in this series, the Celtics had many opportunities to reverse the Raptors.

But as the de facto conductor of the Celtics in this series, Auerbach knows it all too well......

Maybe a hundred more times and the score of this series will change.

But the end result is hard for the Celtics to shake.

Because Davis is in this series......

From the beginning to the end, I didn't think about fighting Auerbach in the past.

He chose a tactic that was almost inexplicable.

"Come back next year." Patting his disciple Millerkar on the shoulder, Auerbach sighed regretfully.
