"Mr. Zhuang, this game is the first match point of your series, and we all know that in the first two home games, you both won at North Shore Gardens, so do you think you can maintain this luck in this game to beat the Vancouver Grizzlies and give the Boston Celtics another Finals after 16 years? Do you think the Boston Celtics players are ready to advance now? ”

On May 30, 2003, at the pre-game press conference at Boston's North Shore Garden, the fifth game between the Boston Celtics and Grizzlies was held at six o'clock this evening, and there were still eight hours before the start of the game. Now the Boston Celtics are 3-1 ahead. ,!1，

But this does not mean that the Boston Celtics players can advance as long as they stand on the court, nor does it mean that the defending champion of the Grizzlies will relax because of 1-3 behind, for now, although the Boston Celtics have led the Grizzlies 3-1, but there are still a considerable number of people in the United States who think that the Boston Celtics will miss the front foot on their home court, because in the eyes of these people, the Grizzlies are the defending champions, and this team has the so-called king spirit, in such a momentum, Whether the Boston Celtics can win or not is not the main thing, the main thing is whether they have the preparation and courage to beat the Grizzlies in five games, although the Boston Celtics played well in this series, and even the outstanding is unbelievable, it is estimated that the Boston Celtics players themselves did not think that they could finish the defending champion Grizzlies in five games.

Even the most die-hard Boston Celtics fans themselves would not have thought of this before this series, and in this case, the most important thing for the Boston Celtics is not a test of their strength, but a test of their courage, and this is also the time to test whether a team is a soft egg team or a grit team, and for the Washington Post reporter in the audience. Zhuang Fei was not as surprised as he imagined.

In fact, before the start of this game, although most people thought that the Boston Celtics could still advance in this round of this series, the most appropriate score should be 4-3, and the Grizzlies took advantage of the Boston Celtics' helplessness after facing the win to pull back two games in a row, and finally lost to the Boston Celtics in a tie-break, which is the script in many people's hearts. Of course, there are also those who believe that the final winner is still the grizzly bear. This is an extremely strange thing, a team with a 3-1 lead actually no one thinks that this team can solve the battle in six games, this is a kind of innate prejudice and distrust of the Boston Celtics players or the team, of course, this is more of a prejudice against Zhuang Fei, even at this time, most of the media still hold the idea that maybe the Grizzlies can be reversed.

"It's going to be a fantastic game, for the Boston Celtics fans and the players, for the whole team, maybe for us. It's going to be the biggest game for us in the last 16 years, and maybe for a lot of Boston Celtics fans, they've been preparing for this game for 16 years, so we don't think we're not ready to win, our fans don't think we're not prepared, and so is our team. 1, as for my players," Zhuang Fei said, smiling at the group of reporters below with great confidence, and then continued; "My players are the most powerful and ambitious guys in the league, they're like hungry beasts right now, and I'm sure they're going to tear the Grizzlies apart in this game"

Shredding grizzly bears? When Zhuang Fei finally smiled and spat out the word, the scene of the press conference was silent, because in the memory of these people, this is the first time this Chinese has said such a thing in this series, and he has never said it so explicit before. After all, for a defending champion like the Grizzlies, such words are not appropriate to say when the game situation is unclear, and when this sentence really comes out of the mouth of this Chinese, does this Chinese already think that there is no suspense in this game? So at this time, even Grizzly Bear head coach Jerry West, who had been silent, glanced at Zhuang Fei with some deep meaning on the side at this time. Combined with the previous words of this Chinese, this is a declaration of victory. Of course, for Jerry West, there is nothing wrong with Zhuang Fei saying such things, they are leading 3-1, and it is appropriate for them to say anything to a team with such an advantage, just depending on whether they are willing to say it, and at this time, even if Jerry West wants to defend a sentence or two, it may be a little weak.

"Do you think you're going to win against the Grizzlies in this game?" After a short silence, a reporter raised his hand again and asked, this reporter Zhuang Fei knew at a glance that it was an away reporter from Vancouver, so his tone was a little unkind when he stood up, although Jerry West didn't want to care, but he didn't.

"Of course" Zhuang Fei smiled again and nodded: "Just like many of you expect the Boston Celtics to lose this game, for me, I know very well how far my team can go, I know them better than you, they will win this game, this is my promise, we will not send the game back to Vancouver, maybe this time it will disappoint the fans in Vancouver, but it will be true"

Zhuang Fei's words were very crazy, although the meaning of this sentence was the same as the previous sentence, but it was obvious that just like the Vancouver reporter's explicit question, Zhuang Fei's answer was also extremely explicit.

For the Boston Celtics and Zhuang Fei themselves, now the Boston Celtics don't need to hide anything or suppress anything, this team has now reached the time to break out of the cocoon, although at this time for these young Boston Celtics, such a five-game defeat of the defending champion and their demon team is a great challenge, but for such a challenge if it really crosses the past for the growth of these players is immeasurable, In this case, Zhuang Fei naturally does not need to be modest or polite.

Of course, Zhuang Fei's remarks at the pre-game press conference in the morning quickly became the hottest topic of the National Sports Festival through the Internet, this is the style of Coach Z, no one will think that Zhuang Fei's words are inappropriate, whether it is Zhuang Fei's style or the score advantage of the Boston Celtics, Zhuang Fei's words can stand, but for most people, they are surprised or expectant. Will the league's No. 1 regular-season team, which they've always despised be able to break their predictions all the time, or break the course they've set for this team?

"Mr. Zhuang said that this is the last game of the Eastern Conference Finals, and although I am also looking forward to playing a few more games at home, it must be cool if I can really solve the Grizzlies in five games."

"yes, they're the defending champions, they beat them in five games, it's a classic no matter how you look at it. A timeless classic in Boston Celtic history"

This game was the Boston Celtics' third home of the series. Because Zhuang Fei's remarks at the press conference in the morning made these Boston Celtics fans excited, for these Boston Celtics fans, their current mood is very complicated, as far as their position is concerned, being able to beat the Grizzlies in five games is naturally the happiest thing, but in the same way, these people subconsciously don't believe that the Boston Celtics can do this, after all, as many people say. This team is the defending champion, this team is the first team in the league. It's just that Zhuang Fei's words made these Boston Celtics fans feel a lot less dazed, just like Zhuang Fei said, this is the last game of the Boston Celtics at home in this round of the series and the last game of this series, and all Boston people, whether players or fans, need to do to show the courage and determination of the last game, which can be regarded as a guide for Zhuang Fei in public opinion for the current situation of this team. Just like before the start of this series, Zhuang Fei said that his team is strong, at that time, what Zhuang Fei needed to do was to let the team abandon the fear of the Grizzly Bear, the 'superior', and then go down, and now, what Zhuang Fei needs to do is to let this team that has changed from a lower to a superior to cultivate its own domineering. This kind of temperament is not only available in the finals, nor after the finals, but is needed in the beginning.

In the home locker room of Boston's North Shore Garden, the Boston Celtics players were all looking at the Chinese head coach standing in front of them. There was less than an hour left before the start of the game, and for these Boston Celtics players, the tactics they were going to play in this game had been laid out a day before, and at this time, their Chinese head coach was standing in front of them and naturally not talking to them about tactical matters.

"I think you should remember what happened a year ago when we were at this time, when I said to you after that series that you can come back, you can beat the Grizzlies, and now, this opportunity is in front of you."

"I think you should remember that I told you at the beginning of this year's regular season that our goal this year is to win the championship, beat the Grizzlies to get to the Finals and win the championship, and now this opportunity is in front of us as well."

"Again, I think you should all remember that a year ago you lost six games at home, this year you can win five games at home, and this opportunity for revenge is still in sight"

Zhuang Fei's voice is not as passionate as before, but extremely peaceful at this time, but for these Boston Celtics players, they can still hear what they want from this series of peaceful voices, so when Zhuang Fei finished these three sentences, the group of Boston Celtics players sitting in front of Zhuang Fei gritted their teeth a little.

"We only need one result in this game, I only need one result, you only need one result, our fans only need one result, I think you should know this result" Zhuang Fei is extremely satisfied with the current demeanor of the Boston Celtics players, and now these people are not showing some stage fright because of the possibility of promotion, so for Zhuang Fei at this time, he did not consider whether his words could bring some bad effects to these players, And these Boston Celtics players did not disappoint Zhuang Fei.

"We're going to take out the Grizzlies in this game, we're going to win"

"Victory, victory!"

"We just want to win!"

Just when Zhuang Fei finished his previous sentence, this group of Boston Celtics players who had been silent were all excited, and even after Arenas and Xiao Ao in the front row took the lead in standing up, the other Boston Celtics players also stood up one after another and raised their right hands, and then their right hands were clenched into fists, and then they still shouted the first three sentences, at this time, Stephen Green, the assistant coach of the Boston Celtics on the side, stood a little dumbfounded, These Boston Celtics players were mobilized by their teachers so easily. This also made the Boston Celtics assistant coach secretly think about all Zhuang Fei's behavior just now, in the hope of learning something.

"That's right, that's it, now we're going to shred the grizzly bear"

"Shred the grizzly bear, shred the grizzly bear!"

As the mood of the Boston Celtics players was high, Zhuang Fei also left the team's locker room with this group of almost red-eyed Boston Celtics players to prepare for the game.

"This group of Boston Celtics is not as frightened as others say" In the commentary box of the North Shore Garden, Barkley looked at the Boston Celtics players who came out and said with some surprise, these guys are really a little strange, not only will they not have the courage to win as many people expected, but they are all hungry wolves.

"This is really a group of strange young people" Kenny Smith on the last side also nodded and said, maybe for the Chinese team, everything can not be judged by common sense, but for many people, they always can't help but continue to look at the Chinese team with common sense.
