Chapter 657: Does It Really Matter?
"Come on, if you have the ability, let that big guy get on, let's Tim be refreshed"
"Hahaha, softass, outright softass, this is one of the softest centers I've ever seen in the NBA, I swear, he's softer than those two interior players in the Sacramento Queens"
"Now that we've won, kill those from Boston, and we're going to get revenge"
San Antonio SBC Center, this is the new home of the Spurs this year, since moving to this stadium this season, the Spurs rarely lose here, this season, the Spurs have a 37-4 record at home, which is one of the best home records of any NBA team this season, and the same, the atmosphere here is naturally extremely extraordinary, although it is not as fanatical as Vancouver, but the San Antonio Spurs fans are still one of the most loyal and passionate fans in the league, of course, Such enthusiasm is naturally not for the away team players and the away team coach, and in addition to Zhuang Fei's 'special fate' with this team, it can be said that the shock effect of this team at home is definitely not much worse than the home court of the Grizzlies or the home of the Boston Celtics, and in fact, the shouts of these crazy Spurs fans are indeed very lethal.
"Oh my God, these guys have been shouting all day, aren't they tired?"
In the stands of the commentary booth at the SBC Arena, Barkley said with a helpless look of surprise after glancing around him.
Just like almost all NBA teams shout defense when their team retreats, this is one of the most common slogans in the NBA. It's just that today, in this game, these Spurs fans didn't shout this conventional slogan, but when the Boston Celtics attacked, these Spurs fans shouted loudly. In fact, Yao Ming's style of play in the NBA has not been a hardliner, and in addition to changing his offensive moves this season, his offense is more nondescript, and even more and more of that extremely weird back-up shot, in this case, the Boston Celtics interior player has been called the softest center in the NBA by some fans. Coupled with his defensive ability, such a title can be greatly recognized by some people.
Of course, in general, others will naturally not shout such a slogan, after all, it is an extremely uncivilized thing to scold and attack people like this, and it is also a feeling of having nothing to say, after all, there is no standard for soft eggs, but in the first few games of this series, these Spurs players are slowly calling out, although there is no clear standard. But Yao Ming's performance was definitely a good fit for the selection, and the Boston Celtics interior player was almost completely defeated. was even completely pressed on the bench in the fourth game, neither the starter nor the substitute played, and at this time, as the side with a big score lead, the Spurs fans were planning to be unforgiving, and catching Yao Ming was a violent boo, which was a bit of the meaning of 'changing Su Wei' before Zhuang Fei was reborn.
It's just that at this time, although these Spurs fans are very excited, they can still maintain some sanity. It's just that for the Boston Celtics parties, Yao Ming is very depressed at this time, which is for sure, no one will ignore such remarks, not to mention that this is still an extremely young inside player, but at this time, Yao Ming can only sit on the sidelines. At this time, without Zhuang Fei's order, he could only continue to be a substitute, and he might not even be able to play in this game. In fact, Yao Ming, who was still sitting on the bench after the start of the second half of this game, is indeed very likely to be unable to play in this game between the Boston Celtics and the Spurs.
"It's going to be tiring, but I think they're going to be happy, it looks like these people and Coach Z are really having a good time," Kenny Smith said with a smile after also looking around, and at this time these Spurs fans were still very oblivious and shouting.
"It looks like Yao Ming is not ready to play in this game, and the Boston Celtics are playing hard now," Barkley said with some emotion after taking a final look at the court.
"yes, hopefully Yao Ming won't have too much pressure after this series. In fact, his performance is not bad, there is a big difference between the Boston Celtics without him, although it was not reflected in the last series against the Grizzlies, but this game is all reflected. The Spurs' defense has expanded a little bit because of Yao Ming's absence, in the past, they were afraid that their defense was too aggressive, and the Boston Celtics would break through, but now there is no such worry, Duncan can play Jermaine O'Neal alone can have enough energy to help defend, although Kirilenko has the ability to attack, but it is really unstable, and it is difficult to open up space for Arenas or Maddy" Kenny Smith added after hearing Barkley's words, This game is a special one, the Boston Celtics are a little tough, in the case of Yao Ming not playing.
"Maybe this round of the series is really possible as ** Vic said, the Spurs have completely taken the advantage, as long as Yao Ming is out of balance, such an opportunity has indeed appeared, now for the Boston Celtics it is not necessary for Yao Ming to play at a super level, just need to play normally, as long as Yao Ming can play normally, this Spurs and the Boston Celtics are still equal in strength, and the Boston Celtics can still have an advantage because of the home court advantage, but now, Yao Ming's confidence has been lost, and it is difficult to adjust in a short period of time, perhaps this is also the reason why Coach Z won him in this game, or for now, the Boston Celtics played more embarrassingly this game than the previous one, although Maddie and Arenas' offensive touch is not bad, but because Duncan can be distracted, Arenas did not kill enough Parker and Scola to play their advantage at all. ”
"It's just a pity that in the past, Coach Z never listened to the opinions of the media or other people, but why did he listen to the opinions of those people at this time and really replace Yao Ming?"
"Who knows? I think he should have other intentions, but for now, if the Boston Celtics lose this game again, it will be really difficult for them, 2-2 is definitely an extremely embarrassing scoreline, especially since the fifth game is still the opponent's home field."
As the commentator of this round of the series, perhaps this is the first time that these two people need to guess Zhuang Fei's intentions, after all, the decision to be able to take down the tactical core of their team at this time is a matter that needs to be discussed, and from Zhuang Fei's means, this Chinese has no hesitation at all, as if he has already had a plan in his heart, and from this game, this Chinese is very calm Even at the end of the half, this team is already 10 points behind, But the head coach of the Boston Celtics resolutely did not have too many other behaviors, did not shout to the court, and rarely even got up from his seat, and on the contrary, the ** Vic on the side was a lot more active, constantly roaring into the court, and his face was extremely hideous, if it were not for the score on the sidelines that clearly recorded that the Boston Celtics had been constantly being pulled away by the Spurs, maybe some people would think that Coach Z must be winning this game.
The Boston Celtics played very hard in this game, without Yao Ming's containment, a little O'Neal had no ability to contain Duncan at all, and Kirilenko also reflected the lack of his internal offensive means at this time, as for Haslem, who has a certain ability to shoot, he can't play this ability completely and stably, so in the current situation, the Boston Celtics have been out of balance inside and outside in the comparison with the Spurs, and it is definitely very difficult to win, and in such a difficult time, Zhuang Fei still pressed Yao Ming on the bench with an unchanged face, even if the assistant coach of the Boston Celtics beside him was anxious like an ant on a hot pot at this time.
"Yao Ming, do you want to watch the performance of your teammates for 40 minutes, do you still think they can beat the Spurs" Zhuang Fei looked at the court with straight eyes and did not look at Yao Ming next to him but said lightly, at this time the game has entered the fourth quarter, although Maddie and Arenas take turns to attack and still be able to maintain the gap in the score, but the attack range of these two people is seriously limited, In the absence of Duncan's complete containment, it is difficult for their offense to be truly effective, and it is equally impossible to truly let go.
And when Zhuang Fei finished saying this, Yao Ming's body was also obviously shocked, this game for him, when he learned that Zhuang Fei asked him to substitute, he had a sense of relief, whether it was the pressure of the media or the pressure of the away fans or even his own pressure, at this moment he was not confident that he could still stand on the field to show his ability, at this time he really hoped to be able to hide for a while or hide himself completely, And at this time, Zhuang Fei did give him such an opportunity.
It's just that at this time, after sitting off the court for dozens of minutes and watching the performance of his teammates on the court, Yao Ming, who should have felt that he should be relieved, couldn't have such thoughts at all, and as the game progressed, his heart became more and more painful, and this time after Zhuang Fei's words, the Chinese insider didn't know what to say at all.
"Am I really important?"
Yao Ming was a little dazed and a little enlightened in his heart.
