Chapter 389: Expect the Enemy to Be the First to Win by Surprise (6000 words, ask for a monthly ticket!) )
Tired!
Tired!
Tired!
In the center arena of the route, I watched the timer that had gone to zero, the final score of 102-103, and the [Nirvana] badge that sparkled in my mind......
While enjoying the cheers of nearly 20,000 fans at the scene, in a trance, Su Feng almost couldn't remember the last time he felt like this when his body was hollowed out.
Oh yes......
It seems that it was a month ago when I was studying English with Britney all night.
It is said that those who change the world line without authorization will inevitably suffer punishment from the world line......
There is no doubt that on the night of May 21, Su Feng, who turned the entire NBA beyond recognition, has tasted the "evil fruit" planted by him for the first time.
However, for Su Feng, who has a lot of experience in being beaten, it is ......
Such a "bad result"......
Don't say it, he likes it a lot.
At the scene, after Su Feng gave the Celtics that fatal blow, the Celtics players who failed to create a miracle on this night were not in high spirits.
Most of the Celtics players, including Duncan, opted to leave the game quietly.
On the bench of the Raptors, when the coaches of the two teams shook hands and hugged after the game, after being squeezed red by Celtics coach Millerkar like "revenge", Davis, who shook the fat on his face, was unprecedentedly relaxed.
Especially after smiling at Su Feng, who had just celebrated the victory with his teammates.
"Now, we're in a position to win this series."
Holding his fists and looking at the dome of the Route Center Arena with the 98/99 championship flag flying, Davis thought to himself.
There is one thing to say......
That is, Davis was just thinking in his heart at this time, otherwise, once his words were heard, it would be indispensable, and everyone would think he was crazy.
After all, the Raptors at this time have just won the G1 battle with difficulty, but Davis at this moment seems to have decided that the Raptors have locked the ticket to this year's finals.
……
After the game between the Celtics and the Raptors, at the press conference, Duncan, who scored 39 points and 20 rebounds, and Su Feng, who scored 44 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists, became the first targets of reporters.
And Duncan also broke out golden sentences in an interview.
"Sue has overturned everything I learned about physics in my textbooks, and I think we'll have to get a witch out to deal with him now."
Many years in the future, Duncan's evaluation of Su Feng was translated by many rabbit netizens as only magic can fight against magic.
And Su Feng said in an interview that compared to a certain MVP player who only canvass votes all day long, Duncan is the best interior player in the NBA in his mind.
Tut......
To be reasonable, O'Neill feels quite aggrieved about the fact that he has been lying down lately.
It's just that no matter how wronged he is, O'Neal has to lead his Lakers over the Trail Blazers first.
On May 22, while people were talking about Su Feng's great strike a day ago, in the G1 battle of the Western Finals, the Lakers also encountered stubborn resistance from the Trail Blazers.
In Su Feng's previous life, many people said that if it weren't for Stern's favoritism, it was likely that the OK Dynasty would have come to an end before it began.
And although there is no such thing as a if in history, it has to be said that the Trail Blazers, who have hoarded a lot of meat shields on the inside, are indeed one of the few teams in the current league that can drive O'Neal crazy, except for the Raptors who have found another way.
In Su Feng's original time and space, in seven games with the Trail Blazers, O'Neal averaged only 25.3 points, 12.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.
His overall stats are much lower than his previous and subsequent performances in the Finals.
The Trail Blazers' interior players, led by Sabonis, used their broad chests and arms to prove to the world that Paul Allen's burn of the big bill was not unrewarded.
Because as far as the entire OK Dynasty period is concerned, even the future Kings have never been able to limit O'Neal so well as the Trail Blazers in the 99/00 season.
Ha?
You say that O'Neal's average of "25+12" per game is a good limit?
Alas......
Being able to prevent the peak sharks from averaging only 17.4 shots per game and averaging only 25 points per game is not called a good limit, then why don't you take a look at the "corpses" that were cried by O'Neal's hammer?
In this life, because in the PY trade with the Trail Blazers, the Raptors sent two interior players with rich experience in cutting sharks to Portland, so in the G1 battle with the Trail Blazers, O'Neal couldn't have been more depressed.
No way......
Because the Trail Blazers have a lot of insiders, the Trail Blazers really don't care about sending O'Neal to the free throw line a few more times.
In addition, the second master of Pi in this life did not experience the major injury at the end of his career, which caused his current state to remain quite good......
As a result, O'Neal has always trusted the little brother the most......
Bryant was also in a tough battle in this game.
The game between the two teams was played until double overtime before the winner was decided.
In the end, Jerry West's genius in the draft that year, Lewis became the X-factor that determined the victory.
In the second overtime between the two teams, Lewis hit three key three-pointers for the Lakers, and successfully helped the Lakers win the G1 game of the Western Conference Finals with a four-point advantage.
It's just that after the game, just when Kobe wanted to share with Su Feng that they successfully won the G1 game of the Western Conference Finals, and they were one step closer to Raul Melion's smooth division......
"Take a good look at people! I remember when someone made a few threes in their first playoff game? ”
"Beep, beep, beep!"
Los Angeles, after Kobe Bryant returned to his home in a huff, looking at her fiancé, Vanessa almost thought that Kobe had been robbed on the way home.
On the other side, after successfully piercing Kobe's glass heart, Su Feng looked back at Xiao Yao, who was playing PS with him, and said, "Aaron told me today that he will come to Toronto tomorrow." ”
Alan?
Aaron Iverson?
For the young Xiao Yao, although he has seen Brother Feng's terrible connections more than once, when he learned that his teammate next season, that is, the current boss of the 76ers, Iverson, will come to Toronto, the young Xiao Yao is still a little nervous.
"When I tried out in Philadelphia, he invited me to dinner." While controlling the handle and beating Su Feng's character in the TV screen, Xiao Yao said.
"Well, he said he came to Toronto this time to see you again." And after being knocked out by Xiao Yao again, Su Feng said.
If Su Feng remembers correctly, in the original world line, Yao Ming and Iverson's personal relationship has always been good.
Because the two belong to the Reebok camp, when Yao Ming participates in the All-Star Game in the future, there was also a famous scene where Kobe Bryant pinched Yao Ming's shoulder, Iverson cheered Yao Ming up, and Duncan made Yao Ming jump the ball.
In addition, when Yao Ming was inducted into the Hall of Fame, his complaints about Iverson also showed that the relationship between the two was extraordinary.
However, in this life, Iverson has a good impression of the young Xiaoyao.......
Then Su Feng really had to stand up and "be beaten".
Because of the friendship with Su Feng in the early years, Iverson is particularly concerned about Xiao Yao, who is about to join the Philadelphia Gang (Note (1)) next season.
Coupled with Xiao Yao's honest and honest face and tall body, Iverson gained an unprecedented sense of security when he met him for the first time......
Therefore, regarding whether Xiao Yao can smoothly integrate into the Philadelphia gang, Su Feng has not been too worried.
Even now that this Xiao Yao hasn't played a game in the NBA, the picture of "Boss Ai" has automatically appeared in Su Feng's mind.
Well, didn't Iverson come to Toronto to visit his adorable giant partner in person?
It's just that, in the eyes of young Xiaoyao, Iverson didn't come to Toronto just to visit him.
Because as early as the last time he had dinner with Iverson, Xiao Yao discovered from Iverson's words and demeanor that the brotherhood between Iverson and Su Feng crossed borders.
……
On the 23rd, according to the schedule of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Raptors will usher in a rematch with the Celtics tonight.
And in the morning, during a meeting within the coaching staff, young D'Antoni was taught another lesson by Davies.
At the time, D'Antoni gave Davis a 33-page report on the problems exposed by the Raptors in G1.
However, who would have thought that Davis would not only have seen everything before D'Antony.......
And he also boldly put forward the conjecture that the Raptors have basically locked up this round of Eastern Conference victory.
"John, I don't mean to offend you, but ......." Looking at Davis with a confident face, D'Antoni always felt that Davis was a little too optimistic.
"But? Nothing good but, Mike.
Unless it's the end of the world, we win this series. Patting D'Antoni on the shoulder, Davis said confidently.
It is the so-called importance of the opponent tactically and the contempt of the opponent strategically.
In fact, as the controller of this Raptors, after playing a tough G1 game with the Celtics, how can Davis not know that the overall strength of the Celtics this year is not under the Raptors?
First of all, after the G1 game, the Celtics paid more attention to the three-point shot than last year, and they not only made full use of Ray Allen's ability to pull space for Duncan, Marbury and other players in the game;
Secondly, Duncan's absolute dominance against O'Neal Jr. and Big Ben was also on display.
In the regular season, Maddy, who was selected to the second team of the All-Defensive Team this year, exposed his weakness of being too focused against a defender like Francis, who is good at penetrating.
Therefore, it can be said that in the entire G1 battle, tactically, the Raptors were pressed and beaten by the Celtics.
As a generation of famous marshals who grew up under Su Feng's painstaking cultivation, Davis's biggest advantage is that he is good at learning.
So soon after the G1 game, Davis had already found a good way to break the game from the problems exposed by the Raptors.
And, in Davis' view, the Raptors' tactics in the G1 battle are not useless.
Because after this G1 game with the Celtics, it can even be said that even if the Raptors lose the G1 game, they have won this round of the series, which is the most critical and valuable ......
- Physical fitness.
In the entire G1 battle, except for Su Feng, who played 48 minutes, Cammelben and others played about 30 minutes.
In contrast, the Celtics, who have just played six games with the Pacers, have played more than 40 minutes in order to maintain pressure on the Raptors in the game.
While Auerbach has learned from last year's defeat, as Davis said to D'Antoni in G1......
Su Feng is the real advantage of the Raptors in the face of the Celtics.
Therefore, the further this series is played, the more favorable the outcome will only be in the Raptors' favor.
And this is also the safest way for Davis to get a ticket to the finals shortly after watching the first quarter of the G1 game.
In Su Feng's previous life, whether it was in the series with the Thunder or in the series with Mosaic, Steve Cole never wavered in his belief in the nine-to-ten-man rotation, because Cole knew the importance of physical fitness in a series.
Unlike the NCAA, because the NBA series is a long round of competition, the loss and passivity of one or two games will largely not affect the final outcome of the series.
Compared with the Philadelphia gang that needed to be defeated, today's Raptors have long since changed from dragon slayers to evil dragons.
Therefore, avoiding surprises in this series is the key that Davis needs to consider when playing with Auerbach.
"In G2, I'm going to start Steve and let Vince go off the bench, do you have any opinions?"
In the battle conference room, looking at his "Wolong" and "Phoenix Chick", Davis said calmly.
Hearing this, after staring at Rivers for a few seconds, neither D'Antoni nor Rivers raised any objections.
"Vince is nowhere near as efficient against Ray as Tracey.
In addition, in the G1 battle, it is difficult for both Tracey and Steve to limit Stephen's play.
So, in my opinion, having Vince off the bench not only increases our offensive firepower on the bench, but also limits the rotation of the Celtics. ”
Although neither "Wolong" nor "Phoenix Chick" questioned their own arrangement, as a wise "lord", Davis still explained his tactical intentions to them.
And after listening to Davis's intentions, both D'Antoni and Rivers felt that letting Carter go to the bench was a second move.
Because in the G1 battle, Ray Allen's ghostly running position made the Raptors annoying when dealing with him.
But Su Feng only had one.
Therefore, it is indeed wonderful to have Maddie, who has a better defense, to manage Ray Allen.
"That's great, so that when Carter is in charge of leading the bench, we can get Sue back on the bench to rest, and I have to say, John, this little change of yours has made our situation brighter."
In the war conference room, after listening to Davis's game-breaking strategy, Rivers also patted his at the first time.
However, Rivers's sycophant is destined to be slapped on the horse's head.
Because......
Who said that Davis considered letting Su Feng rest?
This morning, after meeting Su Feng, Davis was already convinced that Su Feng's physical strength had recovered at least ninety percent.
So let Su Feng rest?
There is no such thing as a ......
"But if I don't let Sue rest, I'm worried about ......" looked at Davis, who kept shaking his head, and Rivers, who was trying to prove himself in front of D'Antoni, gave his opinion.
However, before he could finish speaking, Davis interrupted with a wave of his hand.
"I know what you're worried about, but that's not going to happen anymore because the playoffs aren't a one-game game."
For Davis, who relied on Su Feng's physical strength to complete the great feat of the Black Eight Bulls, he knew very well that in terms of the speed of physical recovery, in the current league, only the No. 8 in Los Angeles could barely fight with Su Feng.
Therefore, after the G1 battle, Davis did not plan to change his thinking about using Su Feng.
Also, in Davis' view, one Carter isn't enough to make Auerbach change his rotation like G1 did.
However, add a Su Feng......
Then the situation is completely different.
And this is why Davis firmly believes that the Raptors have booked tickets to the Finals in advance.
Because this round of playoffs continues, it is destined to be a loss.
It's just that, after Davis said all his thoughts, D'Antoni and Rivers felt that Davis seemed to be missing something......
"Don't worry, Tim in G1 is an exception.
No matter how good a player is, he can't play like that every game. Looking at D'Antoni and Rivers, Davis smiled.
"And, they have Tim, don't we have Sue too?" After a pause, Davis added.
And now, D'Antoni and Rivers are completely on their knees in front of Davis's tactical board.
But......
Will everything really go as smoothly as Davis expected?
……
On the evening of the 23rd, Toronto Route Center Arena.
Looking at his cousin who appeared in the starting lineup tonight, on the bench of the Raptors, Carter never expected that he, as the right hand of the Feng Emperor, would also be arranged to be a water cooler administrator one day.
On the sidelines, Iverson, who chatted happily with Xiao Yao, also became the picture actively captured by the cameramen.
After all, many American experts are now questioning Philadelphia's refusal to bet on the Chinese giant with their top pick.
In front of the TV, because the G1 battle between the Celtics and the Raptors has attracted huge attention, many fans are looking forward to this G2 battle being as exciting as the G1 game.
As soon as the first quarter of the game came up, the two teams fought without giving up an inch of land, which reminded people of the classic battle on the 21st.
It's just that in the second quarter of the game, with Carter's appearance, the situation has quietly taken a completely different turn from the G1 battle.
Compared with the first game, in the second quarter of the game, Su Feng, who was surrounded by the Celtics, left his carefully built stage to his right hand.
In the first six minutes of the second quarter, Carter scored 12 points and grabbed four rebounds.
And although Auerbach regained the Celtics' main force at a critical moment, just as Davis predicted, the Celtics' main players have shown fatigue when the G1 game is close to being consumed by the Raptors.
For the playoffs, which are more athletic and consumed, it will take at least 3 to 4 days for a team to get back to peak condition, according to authoritative sports experts.
Therefore, the Raptors, who adopted a mix of main and bench in the first and second games, may lose one or two games of this series because of this decision, but, on the other hand, they also gain a physical advantage far above the Celtics.
By the end of the first half, to the despair of Celtics fans, the Raptors had extended their lead to more than 10 points.
At halftime, the score was 45-57.
As for TNT TV, Smith also said in the review of the first half of the game: "In fact, the Raptors just played at their normal level. ”
In the third quarter of the game, due to the decline in physical fitness, the speed of the Celtics when retreating from defense dropped again.
And the Raptors also seized the opportunity and took the opportunity to play a wave, playing a single quarter score of 18-30 in the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the Celtics withdrew the main force early.
The old spicy Auerbach knew that the Celtics' pre-game strategy to regain home-court advantage in Toronto had failed completely.
And instead of being tortured by the Raptors, it is better to keep the last hope of the Celtics.
In the end, 89-112, to the disappointment of neutral fans, the Celtics failed to play to the level of G1 in this game, and to the delight of Raptors fans, they are now 2-0 ahead.
In the whole game, Su Feng and Duncan got 22 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 21 points and 11 rebounds respectively.
Carter, who came off the bench, played his best game since the playoffs this year.
After the game, before the interview, looking at his cousin, Carter, who had 34 points, 11 rebounds, and 2 assists, said with a puzzled expression: "Tracy, am I better suited to play on the bench?" ”
And looking at his lovely cousin......
Maddie always felt that Carter would definitely be fooled to death by Su Feng in the future.
Oh, my dear cousin, that's the difference between me and you.
Anyway, they are all workers who work for the capitalists......
At the end of this season, I'm going to set up another hill and be the number one worker.
As for you?
It's better to be honest as a part-time worker for Fenghuang!
In Toronto, after the Raptors took a 2-0 lead, North American experts who thought the Celtics could have a chance to beat the Raptors at the end of G1 turned their heads.
In the words of this group of experts, it is only a matter of time before the Raptors advance to the Finals.
And just as Rivers and D'Antoni were about to go and shoot Davis's ass......
Compared with the confidence before the game, after this game, Davis said worriedly: "Let's be ready to play seven games against the Celtics!" ”
Rivers, D'Antoni: "......"
Oh no......
Mr. Coach, how can you be so unpredictable?
Mind-face, is it really faster than turning a book?
"What? Want me to invite you to a glass of champagne? I'll tell you Aaron, don't even think about it! ”
On the other hand, after the game, when he heard that Iverson asked him to drink champagne, Su Feng suddenly became anxious.
What an international joke!
The Raptors are almost eliminated by the Celtics......
Even have to celebrate yourself in advance?
No way!
When pigs fly!
As a loyal reader of "Wenzijing", even if he dies, Su Feng will never let the story of Istanbul happen to him.
But champagne doesn't, in Su Feng's opinion, supper can still be done.
Touching Iverson's ditch head, feeling this feeling that I haven't felt in a long time......
At this moment, the picture of the twin stars of Philadelphia in the same frame in the past is like a huge irony.
Fortunately, beside these two people, the young Xiaoyao also made the desperate Pennsylvanns see hope for the coming year.
The NBA's playoffs continue.
And in Philadelphia, on the morning of the 24th, after some careful consideration, Pat Kraus also picked up the phone in his hand.
"Mr. Rick, if you may, could you please consider us before renewing your contract with Detroit?"
……
PS: Note (1): Because I was GANK by someone, I replaced the Philadelphia gang with the Philadelphia gang in my book in the future.
