Chapter 225: Epic Dialogue! (8000 words big chapter!) The copy is complete, ask for a subscription, a monthly pass! )
Every year at the end of the preseason, these days before the start of the regular season...... It's always been the busiest time for the team's uniforms.
Because while they are busy cutting employees, they also have to observe the changes in the free agent market according to the team's own needs......
So, if you're asking, in which season is the team uniform group most likely to lose hair.......
That's probably now.
After checking and filling in the gaps, in the 97/98 season, before the start of the regular season, the 76ers' 15-man roster is as follows:
Centre-forwards: Ratliff, Williams, Eric Montrose.
Power forwards: Big Ben, Hendrickson, Terry Cummings.
Small forwards: Su Feng, Harris, Davis.
Shooting guards: Iverson, Stackhouse, Waters.
Point guards: Snow, Aaron McGee, Everton.
In the new season, after his contract with the team expired, Klaus originally wanted Kenny Smith to stay with the team.
But after feeling a serious decline in his competitive form, Smith finally chose to retire.
For Smith, his life in this life is much more exciting than in his previous life.
After all, in the season before he retired, he did what even Big Dream and Drakes couldn't do.
As Su Feng remembers, shortly after retiring, Smith immediately received a call from TNT TV.
As one of the future TNT trio, Smith is, in a sense, the elder of Barkley and O'Neal.
No, Smith, who will be in charge of commentating the opening game between the 76ers and the Celtics, also sent a text message to Su Feng after the preseason......
In a text message, Smith said he was looking forward to seeing Duncan dunk on his head during the game.
And when he saw this text message at that time, Su Feng felt that he had made some bad friends in his life?
I'll give you a 10 point if you say yes, and you'll praise me in the future?
No!
None of them!
Realistically, it doesn't play cards at all!
Ahem, Smith's commentary career will be discussed later, compared with last year, the main framework of the 76ers in the new season has not changed much, and in the past two days, the main change is still the tool man.
Aaron McGee was traded by the 76ers to Don Macrolen from the Pistons.
Cummings is a free agent.
As for Montrose, it was Brown who asked his protégé, Cariparry, to come over.
This player was the 9th pick in the first round in 1994, with a height of 213 cm and a weight of 122 kg.
Montrose's skills are average, but his strength is good, and after a few injuries, the reason why he was able to make a living in the NBA is really thanks to the "fathead shark" in Los Angeles.
Judging from Brown's search for Caripari PY, black is black, and Brown obviously still has some fears about the Lakers.
To put it bluntly, a player like Montrose can't get a few minutes of playing time in the current 76ers roster.
But when he meets the Lakers, his value will be highlighted.
As for Cummings, the reason Brown signed him was because Brown didn't like Hendrykson's "soft eggs" very much.
Anyway, Big Ben is definitely going to die, and Big Ben's current status in the 76ers team is second only to the privileged "Ai Feng".
So, in Brown's view, Cummings just needs to stay on top of Ben for the rest of the day.
McGee, on the other hand, is an A+ operation completed by Klaus, who "doesn't know how to play".
McGee has good physical fitness, he is 196 cm tall and can swing in the two positions of point guard and point guard, and he and Snow will wipe Iverson's ass, and in the new season, Iverson's living environment is one step closer.
After the 76ers' roster for the new season was confirmed, Su Feng has stopped picking Starkerhouse's wool in the past two days.
Because of the 76ers' lineup for the new season...... Where did Stackhouse come from?
So, after capturing Stackhouse for a whole year, Su Feng decided that it was time to let go of this unknown substitute who had made outstanding contributions to the 76ers' sniper bulls.
"Alas! Sure enough, it's still comfortable to practice against Big Ben! ”
In the new season, after the iron value of Big Ben soared to 7,500 points, Su Feng's daily iron value of 5 million bullfights, not to mention how fast it was brushed.
In the comprehensive evaluation of the system's iron value, because offense and fame account for a large proportion, don't look at Iverson's iron value in the new season is as high as 14,000 points......
But if Su Feng was to find Iverson, then even if he played with Iverson for 24 hours, it would be difficult for him to fill the 5 million iron value.
……
In the 97/98 season, the 76ers' regular season opener will start on the 31st.
Su Feng, who had watched the schedule before, even made up the picture of Stern laughing wildly with a pair of little devil wings in his mind when he noticed that the 76ers' opponent in the first game was the Celtics......
As we all know, the 76ers have always liked to play the regular season as if it were the Finals.
Especially after the head coach was replaced by Brown, Browna wished that the team could limit opponents to less than 80 points per game.
So......
Obviously, Stern is on the same page as Auerbach!
Su Feng, who is familiar with Stern's routines, knows very well that Stern does not have a lower limit like a joke, just take his punishment of the Bulls last season, Stern still has his own bottom line as a person.
Therefore, a little bullying of Auerbach with schedules and rules is enough in Stern's opinion.
After all, after Auerbach traded to Duncan, Stern's heart hurt not to mention how much it hurt.
But you said a little bit about the Celtics......
It is not realistic to use referees to target the Celtics in Stern's opinion, because if the Celtics are famous and organize a group to protest in support of the Celtics, then the NBA will be too passive at that time.
So, come on, 76ers!
Go grind this Celtic to death for me!
But be reasonable......
In this life, after the Celtics traded Duncan, Su Feng really didn't dare to say that the 76ers could win 100% of the opening game of the new season.
Because in a basketball game, the first thing to look at is the competitive state of the two sides of the game, and then the process of separating the winner and loser.
If Su Feng is the lower limit guarantee of the 76ers, then Duncan is undoubtedly the strength of this Celtics.
As a "Humanoid Encyclopedia", Su Feng remembers very well that in his rookie season, before he suffered a major injury, Duncan once left a scene that was more shocking than in science fiction basketball comics......
It was Duncan's first game against the Bulls, when he went from the free-throw line to the three-point line and then ran back to the basket to grab the rebound......
And to complete the above series of actions, if it weren't for the NBA's timer, then Su Feng remembered very well that Duncan only took 1 second.
A real second.
You must know that Duncan, who has long hands and feet, before he suffered a major injury, he used others as a background board.
Pick-and-roll, co-defense, filling, passing, low-post singles......
He can make the right choice when the team needs him.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Duncan, like Su Feng, is the kind of man who has his own system.
Plus, whether it's Latliff or Big Ben......
To tell the truth, in the career confrontation with Duncan, he has never had the upper hand.
Latrief, in particular, was basically hammered by Duncan before Duncan's major injury.
In Su Feng's previous life, under Popovich, Duncan couldn't shoot like other stars, but it doesn't mean that Duncan's scoring ability is not good.
In fact, if you know Duncan, then you know that after the Spurs officially replaced the core, at the critical moment, it was right to hand over the ball to Duncan if they couldn't open it.
Duncan, on the other hand, can always score the ball under the basket or at a 45-degree angle with some unbelievable movements.
In Duncan's career, there is no shortage of the kind of Xia Jiba who you don't seem to be going to make at all, and who is extremely disobedient......
But...... Duncan, he can just get in, what can you do?
If a player scores a fairy ball or twice once or twice, it's luck.
But after Duncan has been fighting like this for 20 years, it's really strength.
Su Feng knew that Duncan's high finishing rate under the basket was related to the "hard hand" shooting he adopted.
In the NBA, in addition to double-action shooting and single-action shooting, in fact, there are "soft and hard" shots.
For example, Jordan, the "old rascal" is in the last three consecutive rows, and he also takes a "hard hand" shot under the basket.
And the biggest advantage of "hard hand shooting" is that the closer you are to the rim, the more accurate you are.
Because of this kind of machine-like shot, the stability is extremely high.
Of course, Howard's discus-throwing shot in the future cannot be confused with this "hard-handed shot."
And in the future, like Curry and Nowitzki, they are both representatives of "soft hand shooting".
In contrast to the "hard hand shot", the "soft hand shot" will have a higher arc and the ball will also carry spin, as long as you are talented enough, even if you encounter strong interference, you can shoot the opponent far from the rim.
In this life, in order to have the right to shoot, Su Feng practiced "soft and hard hands + high difficulty" double-action shooting.
And he chose the "soft and hard" mix for the same purpose as his high school classmate, which was to throw threes.
In Su Feng's previous life, the biggest difference between Kobe's shooting and Jordan is this, in the case of the [100 steps through Yang] badge, how could Su Feng only be willing to be the king of shots?
Although his three-point point is to be pervertedly accurate, he still has a long way to go.
But only by working hard from now on will Su Feng have a chance to catch up with his eldest nephew Stephen Curry in the accuracy of three-point shooting in the future.
In a word......
This Celtic team is not as easy to deal with as last year.
And after Fox, Wesley and others continue to stay with the team, Auerbach's future maneuver is too great......
……
On the 30th, the 76ers flew to Boston to prepare for the opening game against the Celtics on the 31st.
It is worth mentioning that since the 97/98 season, the number of NBA games broadcast by CCTV per week has officially increased to 4.
In addition to the 76ers' game against the Bulls, in CCTV's broadcast plan, there is no shortage of games from strong teams like the Lakers, Knicks, Heat, and Jazz this season.
In other words, because in the opening game, the game between the Bulls and the Bucks on the other side started at the same time as the 76ers vs. Celtics game, so when I saw the live broadcast announcement of CCTV.......
The most uncomfortable thing for the rabbits is that they can't watch Su Feng and Hu Weidong's new season debut at the same time.
But don't worry......
Because a certain bigwig is looking forward to the 76ers, the 76ers have to fly to Chicago to challenge the Bulls in the second game of the regular season.
Well, in addition to the grievances and hatreds last season, this season, the 76ers' game with the Bulls also has a background like the "Chinese Derby......
In Stern's view, if the 76ers and Bulls can reach the Eastern Conference finals this season, then the ratings will not be explosive?
It is said that after arriving in Boston, on the night of the 30th, because Brown was patrolling around with a leather whip in his hand, Iverson was unable to flip out and have a good time.
In Su Feng's room, Iverson, who was chatting with Su Feng while playing and fighting, spent the eve before the start of the new season.
One thing to say, when seeing Iverson's aggrieved expression, perhaps this is what Brown did to the 76ers in Su Feng's opinion......
The greatest contribution was made.
……
On the 31st, compared with coming to the North Shore Garden Arena a year ago, a year later, when the 76ers players entered the arena again, everyone put away their ridicule and contempt for the Celtics.
Sixteen championship flags and 21 retired jerseys were quietly hung above the dome, which at this time should be called the Fleet Center Arena.
If the NBA is a league of stars, then in the history of the NBA, there are only two teams that deserve the title of giants.
East green shirt west purple gold.
Before Jerry West conquered the league with his unbridled manoeuvres, he knew how many rules Auerbach had played, and what kind of legend he had forged for the Celtics with his charisma.
This is destined to be a different kind of opener.
Because, tonight, all the legends of the Green Army who can come to support Auerbach will be there to watch the game.
By the time Tim Duncan warmed up with his easy pace, his family was already seated on the sidelines.
As we all know, Duncan's purpose in choosing the No. 21 jersey was not because of Popovich, as some brainless people have to say.
In 1989, a hurricane destroyed all the swimming pools on the island of Holy Cross, so Duncan, who was afraid of "sharks", couldn't run out into the sea to practice freestyle, right?
So, when he was 14 years old, his brother-in-law, Rich Lowry, began teaching him basketball.
Later, in order to pay tribute to his brother-in-law, the number 21 became Duncan's number when he played basketball.
Wake up, later after Duncan became famous, what was the only one who wanted to form a good relationship with him in advance?
If you have to break it up, the first person to be optimistic about Duncan has to be Jerry West.
Because in 1995, it was West who was the first to utter the classic phrase "no matter what year he runs, he is the champion".
Therefore, just as blacks have to go through procedures, blowing people, it also has to talk about rules and regulations and basic laws.
Of course, the LOGO man of the manager era is no longer on the list.
"He's ...... tall"
On the court, perhaps accustomed to the relationship between the diminutive Latliff and Big Ben, Iverson's attention was drawn to Duncan when he walked into the arena.
On the side, Su Feng smiled after touching the head of the ditch that only he could pick, and said, "Aaron, although you are not tall, but look, those big men, don't they have to look up to you too?" ”
Yes!
Damn it!
While being blown by a super handsome, he can continue to hear Su Feng praise himself, and as far as Iverson's current happiness is concerned, ordinary people can't experience it at all.
After elbowing Su Feng twice with his elbow, Iverson practiced three points.
On the sidelines, Brown, who noticed this scene, was thinking about what he should say to Iverson for a while.
"Hey, 'phenomenon'! I watched the series you beat the Bulls last season. ”
And just when Brown was in trouble, on the court, Duncan walked towards Su Feng with his big hand.
After subconsciously covering the top of his head with his hand, Su Feng glanced up at Duncan.
And at this time......
I saw Duncan's right hand hovering awkwardly in the air.
Look!
If it weren't for Su Feng's wit, then his flat head would probably become the Mediterranean Sea in the future.
"Hello, Tim." Su Feng said to Duncan with a smile on his face.
On the field, after retracting his right hand, Duncan scratched his head with his left hand and said:
"I'm curious...... Well...... You jumped on the tech desk at the G1 to provoke Michael, you must have done it on purpose, right? ”
For Duncan, who studied psychology, unlike others, when focusing on the 76ers' matchup with the Bulls, he has been dissecting the series on a psychological level.
And according to his analysis, there was more than 90% probability that Su Feng was deliberately jumping on the technical table in the G1 battle at that time.
Because combined with Su Feng's every move in his rookie season, Duncan believes that Su Feng is a player with high EQ and IQ.
Let's take him to make a big fuss in Los Angeles to help his high school compare with the same subject, in Duncan's opinion, Su Feng's double business is so high that he doesn't look like a high school student at all.
"It's okay, you don't have to answer me...... Well...... Do you know the acceleration due to gravity...... Well, I mean, your last LOGO three, the parabola is beautiful. ”
And considering that Su Feng didn't go to college, when he noticed that Su Feng didn't want to answer the question he just asked, Duncan decided to continue the chat with him in the way of praising Su Feng.
Because psychologically speaking, most people will not refuse to be praised by others.
And although it is just a few simple conversations, but in this, Duncan's emotional intelligence shown, in Su Feng's opinion, "Kamecoai" can't be compared at all.
Perhaps, the only thing that upset Su Feng was that Duncan actually doubted his identity as a scholar.
You must know that in this life, Su Feng has never studied in high school, but in the previous life, he was entangled in whether to go to Peking University or Tsinghua University when filling in the volunteers, right?
But then again, judging from the fact that Duncan took the initiative to chat with him, Su Feng paid extra attention to Duncan's mental activity of being eager to make friends.
After all, all the past summer, Duncan had been practicing with a bunch of old men......
Duncan, who is currently only 21 years old, also wants to communicate more with his peers.
In this way, Duncan and Su Feng continued to fight for nearly 30 minutes.
It wasn't until Duncan remembered that he had one more thing to do that he hurriedly ended the conversation and ran to the Celtics' bench.
At this moment, Su Feng noticed that the 80-year-old Auerbach walked into the arena with the support of Celtics coach Millerkal.
Although Karl is nominally the coach of this Celtic team, anyone who knows knows that this Celtics team is up and down and only obeys the orders of one person.
"Cardinal" Auerbach.
Speaking of which, Auerbach also coached a game of "Ai Feng" during last season's All-Star Weekend......
And compared with the state of sleepy Missy at that time, how does Auerbach at this time look like an 80-year-old man?
I saw him smile and take Duncan's hands and sit on the chair that Duncan had set for him.
And then immediately after that......
Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, Havlicek, all these familiar names, sat behind Auerbach one by one.
In the stadium, the legends of the Green Army who sat in rows soon became the object of media pursuit.
It's just an ordinary opener.
But this extraordinary pomp and circumstance reveals Auerbach's love for Duncan from the inside out.
Su Feng knew very well that Auerbach hoped to pass the torch to Duncan through this game.
"Su ...... It looks stronger than last year. Auerbach, squinting, said to Carl after glancing at the 76ers' halfcourt.
Larry Brown...... That's a lot of luck. After a pause, Auerbach added.
And then again, just as Auerbach explained to Karl the team's tactics tonight, the ...... on the field
Wandering around...... Su Feng, who stomped on him after taking two steps, quickly attracted the attention of the Celtics players.
And after noticing that Su Feng stayed on a piece of the floor for a short time, all the Celtic players broke out in a cold sweat......
Duncan, who had just chatted with Su Feng, touched his chin and said, "He is really not an ordinary person. ”
That's right, the floor where Su Feng just stayed was one of the "traps" of the Celtics' home stadium.
Generally speaking, details like this are difficult for the visiting team to spot......
Because the Celtic "trap" is not fixed.
Every time the "trap" is changed, except for the Celtics' own players who have adapted to the field in advance and can know where the "trap" is, it is difficult for players like the visiting team to notice such subtle changes.
At this moment, the position where Su Feng is standing is a "trap" on the left half of the TV broadcast screen, at a 45-degree angle on the left wing.
When it comes to critical moments, if the attacker is unprepared, this "trap" comes into play when dribbling.
And a trap like this, Su Feng found a total of 3 tonight!
Really......
After selecting Duncan, the Celtics are no longer the bad team they were last season.
So, naturally, their traditions are coming back.
However, for Su Feng, who has always been cautious, these are nothing.
Because in his opinion, if he has the ability, the Celtics will turn off the air conditioner and try again!
……
On the court, after Su Feng pointed out the "trap" of the Celtics' home stadium to his teammates, the start time of this game was getting closer and closer.
It is worth mentioning that in the new season, in addition to the remaining Wesley, Fox and Jim Jackson, who joined as a free agent, the Celtics have another change in the lineup......
That is, Dino Ladia, who was supposed to retire in the summer, did not retire in this life.
In Su Feng's previous life, there were always people who questioned Da Yao's status as a Hall of Fame player.
But in fact, if you really want to say "water", then shouldn't a player like Dino Ladia, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame after only playing four NBA games, also be blasted out by some people?
As a Croatian basketball legend, the 30-year-old is a skilled and defensive interior player.
The reason why Radia was inducted into the Hall of Fame is simply because he was one of the best basketball players in Europe in the 90s.
You know, in the 90s, European players ......
But not everyone wants to play in the NBA.
In order to encourage more international players to join the NBA, the reason why a pioneer like Radia can be inducted into the Hall of Fame in the future is because he has made a huge contribution to the NBA to promote the European market.
In Su Feng's previous life, because the Celtics in the 96/97 season lost too desperately, coupled with the torture of injuries, the player, one of the top 50 stars in European history, chose to retire from the NBA for dignity.
However, in this life, because of Auerbach's re-emergence and the fact that Ladia, who had practiced with Duncan a few times in the summer, found that the Celtics' intentions had completely changed, and decided to continue to fulfill her contract with the Celtics.
And for the rest of the NBA, this is not good news......
Because although Radia is not as good as the general, he is indeed a strong player.
After recovering from his injuries, the 30-year-old Radia certainly can't match his peak athleticism, but his footwork and technique are excellent......
and his open-air style of play, which will make opponents have to weigh the consequences when facing Duncan who wants to pinch him.
In the new season, ESPN ranked the Celtics 12th in the power rankings, and they are optimistic that they can make the playoffs this season, in large part because of Ladia.
Su Feng felt that the tsunami effect set off in his life was too exaggerated......
"From the point of view of quantum mechanics, this should be regarded as the punishment of the world line for those who change history?" Before the start of the game, Su Feng thought curiously.
……
North Shore Garden Arena, after the pre-match ceremony, when the big screen on the scene gave the starting list of the two teams tonight, this stadium has tasted all kinds of grievances in the past year......
Instant explosion!
76ers: Ratliff, Big Ben, Su Feng, Iverson, Snow.
Celtics: Duncan, Ladia, Fox, Jackson, Wesley.
When Tim Duncan's name resounded in the Boston sky on October 31, 1997, even David Stern felt that he had arranged the opening game between the 76ers and the Celtics too well......
On the on-site commentary seat, the commentators of major American TV stations were educating fans about the glorious team history of the Celtics and the legends who are here today.
On the court, when Latliff went to the center of the court to start the game with Duncan, he didn't feel the intuitive and real pressure from Duncan like O'Neal.
But don't believe it, Su Feng in his previous life, judging from the career alignment data, Ratlif .......
More afraid of Duncan.
In contrast to the mighty shark, Duncan is the kind of player who doesn't seem to pose any threat to you.
But in fact, when you finish fighting, you will find that it is difficult for you to escape the fate of being sanctioned by him.
There is no doubt that this is one of the best building blocks in NBA history, and it is a treasure diamond of the same quality as the maple cornerstone.
Amid the deafening cheers of the Celtics fans, under the watchful eyes of the fans of China and the United States in front of the television......
The 1997/1998 NBA season has been lifted since then!
On the court, Duncan, jumped the first attack for the Celtics.
As if it had been carefully calculated, Duncan had just jumped no more, no less, just 5 centimeters more than Latrief.
Wesley dribbled across the halfcourt, and unlike Celtics fans might think, Duncan didn't go to the low post to ask for the ball as soon as he came up.
In this attack, he mentioned the high position and took the initiative to block Wesley.
It was a seemingly "unremarkable" pick-and-roll.
But Snow, another outside wrapping expert of the 76ers, couldn't get around.
At this time, Wesley, who had not lost his ability to break through, used Duncan's cover to successfully enter the 76ers' interior line.
And according to the pseudo-joint defense that Brown usually teaches everyone, Daben will help the defense in place as soon as possible.
No......
Wrong!
On the sidelines, Larry Brown frowned.
It's not that Big Ben's defense is wrong, it's Ratliff...... The position was messed up by Duncan, who went down.
Wesley hit a grounded pass and found Jackson, who cut from the baseline, and the latter scored an easy layup.
0 to 2.
In retrospect, in order to avoid being counterattacked quickly by the 76ers, the Celtics' retreat was quite quick.
Although such a retreat is a bit redundant against Brown's team......
But in this offense and defense just now, where is the Celtics still the team that lost last season and didn't even want their underwear?
Snow steadily pressed the ball through the half, and the 76ers attacked Iverson.
Before the game, the "answer" that was blown to the sky by Su Feng and Brown on the left and right faced Jackson, who was close to him, and a simple acceleration broke through Jackson's defensive zone.
However, just as Iverson was about to make a layup, Duncan stepped back and used a pegboard hat to make the North Shore Garden arena warm up again!
In Su Feng's previous life, Duncan, who could play a second-defense defense in his rookie season, is a rookie......
This product is a full grade!
After capping Iverson, he handed the ball to Wesley in second place.
Datianchao TV, Director Zhang said worriedly: "Today's 76ers' offense is too simple......
On the pitch, Celtic pushed back and attacked.
Fortunately, under the hindrance of Su Feng, the Celtics failed to raise the offensive speed this time.
After landing the ground, the Celtics put the ball in Fox's hands.
Once again, Duncan covered for his teammates.
It's just that this time, Su Feng didn't choose to go around.
After making a brief eye contact with Latliff, Su Feng took the initiative to stick to Duncan.
"Wow! Su Feng is going to guard against Duncan! "Director Zhang couldn't be happier when he saw Su Feng's camera appear.
On the wing, Fox did not choose to break through by himself after noticing the misalignment of Duncan and Su Feng, but hoisted the ball towards Duncan.
On the court, Duncan, who received a pass in the high post, ushered in a big and small opportunity.
Duncan vs. Su Feng......
How would Duncan, who was raised with one hand, go about this attack?
And can Su Feng help hold on?
Boom ——!
The answer will soon be revealed.
