Chapter 862: Angry Reprimands Greg, Loyal to Liver and Courage Bruce!
On May 2, 2009, at 10 o'clock in the evening, the stands of the ATandT arena in San Antonio were packed!
The game hadn't even started, and the frenzied shouts were already ringing in the sky.
"It's hard to imagine this pre-game between the first and eighth in the West!"
"But this is a pre-game game of first and eighth in the West!"
Nervous, exciting, panicked, crazy!
That's all there is to this game!
Barkley now feels like he's having a hard time controlling the surging emotions in his heart.
If there is a donkey's ass in front of him at this time, he will definitely hold it excitedly and gnaw wildly, in order to vent those crazy emotions in his heart.
Kenny Smith next to Barkley doesn't have as crazy emotions as Barkley, and in his heart, there are more apprehensive emotions.
There is no doubt that he hopes that Yes can win this game in the end!
As long as supersonic blacks out the Spurs, the Heat's chances of winning the championship will be greatly increased!
For this game, there is no group in this world that represents a different departure from the field and will have their own departure and emotions.
For example, David Stern, who was on the sidelines at this time, his current mood is definitely panicked.
Listening to the crazy shouts of the Spurs fans at the scene, David Stern now feels that his palms are sweating.
He is a person who is used to seeing big scenes, but no matter how many big scenes he has seen, when a game determines hundreds of millions or even billions or billions of interests, it still makes him panic!
This game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs means so much and too much for the NBA this year and for the world today.
Because of the fermentation of public opinion these days, this game has become one of the most watched playoffs in NBA history, and even one of them can be removed.
When he thought of the most watched playoffs in NBA history and even the most watched game changing hands again, David Stern was also quite emotional.
Since Yes came along, he's found that the NBA's miraculous games have become more and more playful.
So much so that he didn't know that this was the first time in the past three years that he had given away the name of the most watched game in the NBA world.
"It's like God's own arrangement!"
This magical game because of Yes seems to be arranged by the Creator, otherwise how could it be that in the past 60 years in the NBA, there has been no 0-3 reversal, and there will be two games at once in the past two years?
Looking at the familiar figure on the court who walked out to the boos of the Spurs fans in the stadium, the supersonic nine, David Stern's eyes were full of appreciation and admiration.
This is God's greatest masterpiece!
"This is the first time I've remembered we've received so many boos in San Antonio!"
"Of course, this is no ordinary game!"
Playing in the boos of this level from Spurs fans, the average player is really a little weak-legged, but the face of the supersonic player is more of a surprise.
The game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs was paved too much before the game, as if it was a battle of the century in the NBA.
Since it is such a battle of the century, of course, they can't be afraid to retreat because of the boos of the fans, and finally lose here.
"This game is not here to kill the dark, and I am really sorry for the world's foreshadowing and anticipation of this game."
The superSonics players are in very, very good shape right now, which makes Nelson Sr. very satisfied and very reassuring.
In such a crucial game, if the player's mentality or state is out of balance, it is equivalent to losing half of the first.
It doesn't matter what the public opinion is like outside, no matter what the public opinion of the NBA insiders is.
For both him and the SuperSonics, he wants his players to treat this game as if it were a normal game where they have to fight hard.
Even if everyone knows that this game is not ordinary.
Anyone can be under pressure in the midst of such boos from Spurs fans, and in the same way, even in the applause of Spurs fans, like the current Spurs players, are they not under pressure?
Looking at the old Nelson's gaze, after the supersonic appearance was completed, every Spurs player greeted the Spurs fans with the biggest cheers and applause when they came out.
At this time, are the Spurs players really as he imagined, very, very stressed, just like he and his superSonics are feeling now?
Old Nelson didn't know.
He didn't have mind reading.
But after the Spurs players finished playing, the Spurs players like Bowen or Duncan, or others, everyone's eyes were on Yes!
On the court, this time has become the focus of attention of all the Spurs players, and Yes didn't feel anything.
"Spurs players are a little too blatant with such eyes, right? Don't you even think of our existence as existence? ”
"This look, these people from the Spurs are telling the world that as long as they beat Yes, they will defeat the supersonic ......"
"Although this is indeed the case, it is still very unpleasant to be so blatantly slighted, right? We're not all Sergi after all, are we? Hahahaha, Serge, I'm just kidding, you must not take it seriously. ”
Ibaka certainly didn't take it seriously.
As one of the members of the garbage club, how could he not even stand such words?
When the garbage will be in a meeting, there are more direct words.
What's more, even if it's not a joke, he can accept it if it's true.
After all, that's how he played in the first six games.
But......
Looking at the look in the eyes of every Spurs player who wanted to swallow Yes during the pre-game training, Ibaka's hands clenched into fists.
He wants to help Yes!
At this time, Yes needs his help more than ever!
If this game, when Yes needs his help the most, he can't step up.
Don't jump the Pacific Ocean, just dodge your hands and just give up basketball!
I don't know if I felt such determination, Ibaka felt as if her hands were protesting against his determination with a slightly hot temperature.
It's no use protesting!
Say cut that must be cut!
"Serge, you're not really angry, are you?"
"No, I'm not angry!"
Facing Ibaka's determined eyes, the supersonic players felt that Ibaka was a little different tonight.
And those Spurs players who were stared at by Ibaka still have no one else in their eyes now, only Yes.
Looking at Yes, even Duncan, his face was full of admiration now.
Spurs, this is really scared of Yes!
Not only Bobo, but even himself was also scared by Yes.
As the king of the background board industry, he has been a variety of background boards.
Including using Yes as a backdrop, he doesn't know how many times.
But this time, in the face of four consecutive kills, the 3-0 lead was reversed, and the super invincible and huge background board of Black Eight, even Jean, who was used to being a background board, had no way to face it with a calm heart.
If you really want to be smashed on your body by this background board, it may really be dead!
Maybe he won't die, maybe Bruce won't die, but everyone else could die except for him and Bruce just hit hard!
Yes created with his hands, and the backdrop that smashed into him and his team was too heavy for him to bear.
Fortunately, fortunately in misfortune, Bruce has been prepared for this background board smashed by Yes for a long time.
Otherwise, what awaits the Spurs is really a place to die!
So, after 3 to 3, whether it's him, whether it's Bobo, whether it's any other Spurs player or coach or staff, it's really offering Bowen like a god.
Bobo is not fifteen is the second ridicule of the great prophet.
And Bruce, that's the real Great Prophet!
Duncan looked at Bowen beside him with his glazed, blank gaze.
And what about Bowen?
When the players of both sides finished the pre-match training, completed the final preparations before the game, and finally prepared to play, Bowen and Yes faced off again on the sidelines, on the halfway line, and on the technical table!
This time, the confrontation between the two is still so intense!
This time, the momentum exuded by the two of them is still so powerful!
So much so that as soon as the confrontation between the two came out, Duncan and the others felt the huge cheers and boos of the Spurs fans at the scene.
The applause is for Bowen, of course, and the boos are for Yes, of course.
Although he still can't understand what Bowen and Yes's eyes are talking about at this time, Duncan can feel that Bowen who is confronting Yes now is really different from before!
Bowen: Isn't that surprised.
Yes: You don't surprise me at anything.
Bowen: Hehe, you black-hearted people are so interesting, you are hard-mouthed when you die.
Yas: The Blackheart?
Bowen: I used to just want a choice, but you didn't give it to me, now, I just want to kill you!
After glaring at Ye with the most ferocious look, Bowen took the Spurs players onto the court.
Looking at Bowen's stubborn back, Yes tilted his head and asked Ibaka beside him.
"Am I black-hearted?"
“……”
Ibaka was stunned for a moment, and then the whole person was like a ghost!
Black heart?!
Who dares to say Yes1 Black Heart, I'll chop him up first, and then jump the Pacific Ocean with him!
It's just that before Ibaka could say what was in his heart fiercely, Ye Si had already looked down at his feet.
67…… 72…… 76…… 68…… 81……
It feels good.
74!
No lock!
"It's our turn."
When Yees stepped onto the field again with the supersonic players, the whole scene was a crazy boo.
"Before the game, Popovich said that the Spurs would change the lineup, and in this game, the Spurs really changed the lineup, and the Spurs' starting point guard, Tony Parker, became Justin Duntmon!"
"In this most important match, Popovich made a crazy decision!"
"Looking at Popovich's change of formation, I even think that Popovich can make the decision to replace Duncan from the court at the last moment!"
The Spurs' starters this evening are Duncan, Bonner, Stephen Jackson, Bowen and Justin Duntmon.
Watching Parker sit at the bottom of the court, commentators from various countries on the sidelines were shocked.
How long has it been since Parker has been in the Spurs starter?
Should it be said, did Parker play off the bench in the Spurs' playoffs?
Since the 2002 playoffs with a Spurs appearance, Parker has been the Spurs' starting point guard!
It's been eight years!
Popovich actually let Parker come off the bench in such an important game!
Compared with the shocking Spurs starting lineup, the SuperSonics' starting lineup is the starting lineup that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
Milicic, Millsap, Ibaka, Yes and Rondo.
It was a starting line-up without any bright spots.
So after the starting lineups of both sides came out, the eyes of the world were on this huge change for the Spurs.
Even the old Nelson, who is the head coach of the supersonic team, was surprised.
He knew Popovich well.
Popovich was one of the registered disciples he taught.
He knew that Popovich had a habit of gambling big.
But this time this big gamble seems to be really big.
But......
Nelson Sr. withdrew his gaze from Popovich on the other side and then looked at Justin Duntmon on the court.
This No. 1 player of the Spurs, he is also very familiar with, a former player from the University of Washington, who won the NCAA championship with Yes, the sixth man at the University of Washington that year, and the leading guard of the University of Washington who stayed on the team.
The ball quotient and technique are average, but the speed, physical confrontation and defense, that is really not ordinary.
After playing with Curry for a year of extremely unsuccessful NCAA, while the value of other University of Washington players was dragged down by Curry, his value was not dragged down, and he was even won by the Spurs in the first round against the trend.
Under Popovich's careful tuning, although Justin Duntmon's offense has not improved much this season, his defense has indeed improved a lot.
Now he is a very good defensive player in the league's No. 1 position.
Putting such an offensive double-edged player and a strong defensive player up, Popovich certainly didn't want to target Rondo in this game.
Rondo doesn't need to be targeted.
Since it's not for Rondo, it's definitely for Yes?
Old Nelson wasn't quite sure.
Nelson Sr. wasn't sure what Justin Duntumon's role was on the court, but the commentators from all over the world and the reporters in the press gallery were quite convinced.
"In this game, Spurs are really ready to pack Yes!"
"Justin Duntumon is a more suitable player to assist Bowen in the Yes pack than Parker!"
"Justin Duntumon is a former teammate of Yes, he is familiar with some of Yes's habits, and his physicality and defense are a little better than Parker's, and using him to assist Bowen in defending Yes is the best option!"
The impact of Popovich's lineup change on the sidelines continues to grow.
And on the pitch, the match between the two sides has already begun.
Milicic and Duncan jump the ball.
There is no doubt that Duncan was once again beaten by Milicic while jumping the ball.
Milicic usually resigned to Duncan when he faced him, and when he jumped the ball, he definitely hit hard without reservation.
Anyway, this series has become accustomed to Milicic as a backdrop for the jump ball.
This is the last of the series.
As Milicic jumped high, Duncan made a stunned gesture below with his mouth wide open and his eyes wide open.
As a professional backdrop, this is good for the professionalism of the show.
But......
This exaggerated acting skill almost flashed the waist of Milicic, who jumped in the air.
After posing with Milicic's flamboyant acting skills, Duncan retreated before Milicic came down from the air.
The whole world knows what one of the most lethal weapons of the Seattle supersonic is.
Although this series was due to Bowen's defense, Yes didn't hit a single jump-ball fast-break.
But with Duncan's defensive qualities, how could it be possible to give the supersonic such a chance.
However, at the beginning of this game, whether it was the audience on the sidelines or in front of the TV, they were not going to watch the opening fast break of Yes and the supersonics.
What they're looking at is Bruce Bowen, the best defensive player in NBA history, coming to the pack!
The best defender of all time has to pack an opposing offensive player!
What does this mean?
This means that this defensive player voluntarily gave up his title as the best defensive player in history!
The best defender in history can't have an opposing offensive player who can't defend and needs to wrap up!
It's like a player who is known as the best offensive player in history, but has a player who can't play one-on-one!
When Yes and Bowen were named the strongest offense in history and the strongest defense in history, respectively, many people said that it was contradictory that such two titles appeared in the same era at the same time.
Since Bowen is the strongest defense in history, then the contemporaries can't have the strongest offense in history.
Offense and defense!
Spear and shield!
It is true that there should not be two kings in an era!
And in this game, Bowen is about to take off the crown on his head with his own hands!
Many people are looking forward to this historic moment.
The moment when Bowen took off his crown with his own hands.
The moment when Bowen himself walked down from the altar.
This is a historic moment!
A historic moment when the god of offense forced the god of defense to give up the crown and the altar with his own hands!
For those who watched the excitement, the moment thrilled them and excited them.
But for the Spurs players on the court, the Spurs crowd on the sidelines, everyone's faces were touched and sad when they saw that Bowen was about to wrap up Yes with his teammates.
Even Popovich now has emotion written on his face.
And at this time, every player and coach of the Spurs, including Popovich, almost remembered the scene that happened in the locker room before the game just now.
"I took Tony's starting position."
"Surely some of you are upset, right?"
"I'm even more dissatisfied!"
"We have five starters, I can't wait to win four, we have thirteen active players, and I can't wait to dismiss twelve directly on the spot!"
"Look at these teammates standing next to you!"
"Which one isn't well-dressed?!"
"Which one isn't famous?!"
"Which one is not my right-hand man?!"
"You're all rotten, my heart is broken!"
"This is the country we have single-handedly built!"
"Now that we have single-handedly beaten down the country, we have made it look like this, I am heartbroken!"
"I'm guilty of San Antonio, I'm guilty of the fans, I'm sorry for the Spurs, I wish I had removed myself!"
"And you, although you are all standing on the court with a high sound, are you so clean, so natural?!"
"I know some of you are more hateful, worse, and more corrupt than Parker!"
"I advise you, turn your wolf heart and dog lungs out, take a look, dry it, wash it, check it, and check it, are you worthy of Bruce doing everything for you!"
"When I first arrived at the Spurs, I always thought that our biggest opponent was the Jazz, and when the Jazz collapsed, I thought that the biggest enemy was the Lakers, and we drew the Lakers again, and then the Mavericks became a problem again, and we took the Mavericks again!"
"I took the calf, and now Yes has become a problem again!"
"It's becoming more and more clear to me now that the Spurs' troubles are not on the outside, but on the team, in this locker room, among my players and my sisters-in-law!"
"If any of you are rotten, the Spurs will be rotten!"
"If you are all rotten, the whole world will be ridiculed against Spurs, and we will die together without a place to be buried!"
"Think about it, it's only been a few years since Maverick Novitsky was hanged in Seattle?"
"Forgot everything?!"
"Yes, the crooked-necked tree that hanged Nowitzki is still there, staring at me every day, staring at you!"
"Since losing the last game, I haven't closed my eyes for three days and three nights, and I'm always trying to say something to everyone."
"But what do you say? You all understand the truth, everything has to have a head, right? ”
"Thinking about it, I only thought of four words, these four words are easy to say, how difficult it is to do, these four words are dug out from my heart, we dug out from the sea of blood!"
"Remember, from now on, our home dressing room has been renamed the 'Loyal Liver Room', and now I will have people hang a banner and a picture of Bruce in the middle of our dressing room!"
"Take a good look, you all look up, take a good look, see what loyalty is to the team, what is righteousness to your teammates and coaches, look at Bruce, think about yourself, this half an hour, I won't say anything, you all look up at Bruce for half an hour!"
It was a scene that Spurs players will never forget in their lives!
And now, this is also a scene that the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV will never forget for a lifetime!
"Spurs Pack Yes!"
"Bowen Bag Clip Yes!"
"But it's not Justin Duntumon who is with Bowen in the bag, it's Stephen Jackson?!"
Looking at this scene that suddenly appeared in the middle of the stadium, the reporters in the press gallery and the commentators in the commentary seat all stood up in shock!
Even the old Nelson, who had a premonition, was stunned.
And Ye Si on the court, Ye Si, who has always been calm on his face, also showed a look of surprise.
Bowen, Jackson......
He wasn't surprised that it was these two people who caught him.
He was surprised by the temperament of Bowen and Jackson and the Spurs players......
That's almost the same temperament as the temporary state of the superstar system after being motivated by the head coach!
This game!
Ye Si, who had always had a chance of winning, showed a solemn expression on his face for the first time.
