Chapter 721: Boston's Undercurrents and Powder Kegs

"Coach, Mr. Grusebeck and that guy are scolding again"

Stephen Green put the news that had just come out today on Zhuang Fei's desk with a smile on his face, and then said to Zhuang Fei helplessly, and at this time, Zhuang Fei only shook his head slightly after hearing his assistant say this, and finally showed some wry smiles.

This year or last year is definitely a very special year for Bostonians, in the past year, Boston's sports career, which has been in a slump recently, has almost become the focus of the United States, and a country like the United States, in many cases, the significance of sports to this country is not even just the scope of sports.

For example, every year at the beginning of the basketball NCAA tournament, the whole people guess the winner, such as the Super Bowl of football is called the Spring Festival in the United States, these are almost very clear to make people understand that these major sports in the United States are definitely not so simple things, and the same, for the United States, let alone for Boston, in the past for a long time, Boston's professional sports were dominated by the Boston Celtics and the Boston Red Sox, The influence of these two teams in American professional circles or in Boston has always been similar.

Especially after more than ten years of hard brothers and sisters between the two teams, perhaps in the past, when both teams were in a downturn, the relationship between the two teams was not bad or even quite good, but what makes people spray rice is that in recent years, these two teams have all risen for various reasons, and the path of rise is completely different, and even the owners of these two teams are not harmonious, which is completely different from the relationship between the two teams in the past.

Of course, for now, the status of these two teams in Boston is also a little different, but although there is a gap between the two teams now, these two teams are undoubtedly still the pride of Boston, in this case, these fans of Boston naturally probably want their teams to fight like this, even if the two new owners of these two teams can't get along like the owners of the two teams in the past, but they can't attack each other. After all, although everyone is a competitor, they are also brothers in the same city.

It's just a pity that since the Boston Celtics won the championship, the Boston Celtics and the Boston Red Sox directly tore the last piece of shielding cloth, but directly aimed their weapons at each other, whether the Boston Red Sox was the first to attack or the Celtics were forced to fight back, at this point now, there is no concept of who is right and who is wrong, especially after the Boston Red Sox lost the Baseball League Finals in November, The ridicule of the Boston Celtics League Grusbaker in the media is still vivid, and in the past December, after the Celtics were killed by the Lakers, the analysis and criticism and smear of the Celtics' loss to the Lakers can still be found in the Boston Globe.

For Zhuang Fei, he is very clear about the grievances between his boss and the rich second generation. When a dick rises in front of Gao Shuai Fu, he definitely wants to trample on the other party, and for a Gao Shuai Fu, he will not allow the former Dick to be trampled on in his hometown and his territory, the contradiction between these two people or the contradiction between these two parties is irreconcilable, but Zhuang Fei hopes more that such a contradiction will not affect the Celtics.

In fact, such an idea is impossible to achieve, and how can such a thing not involve the Boston Celtics or the Boston Red Sox? So Zhuang Fei has always been a little helpless at this time, and the local public opinion in Boston has been amplifying the Celtics recently. This is also what makes the Celtic players quite nervous. You know, for most of the media in the United States, they also pay attention to the Celtics, though.

But they don't have the same advantage as the local media in Boston, how can their familiarity with this team and their familiarity with the city be comparable to the local media in Boston, such as which nightclub in Boston these players are willing to go to, such as where in Boston there is a good casino or other entertainment area, for these Boston media they know too well, when they want to catch the Celtics, the Celtics players are quite nervous, This makes these players scared to go to nightclubs, and of course, this is true for the Carrytts players, and naturally the same is true for the Boston Red Sox players, which can be said to be a lose-lose situation for both teams. It's just that even so, I'm afraid it won't be able to calm the fire of the owners of these two teams.

"Hehe, it's funny, but Tracy and they need to put up with it" For the Celtics and Celtics players, it hurts to attack each other internally. The same is naturally true for Zhuang Fei, but it is also the same that can make these young players of the Celtics take care of themselves and put more thoughts on the court.

"Yes, these guys have a lot of grudges against that rich second generation," Green also smiled and nodded after listening to Zhuang Fei's words, and said, for these NBA players, letting them make a lot of money and not be able to enjoy it is the most painful thing. So Zhuang Fei also smiled slightly after listening to Green's answer, and then continued to look down and began to look at the edited or original newspapers sent in by his assistant.

"The Spurs have won again, this is the team's eighth consecutive win," after a while, Zhuang Fei put down the newspaper in his hand thoughtfully and said, if in the first half of the league was the Celtics and Lakers separated from each other in the East and West, then after entering 2004. However, the situation has undergone some subtle changes. The Boston Celtics and Lakers are still leading the group, but last season's Finals team Spurs have been winning streaks, which means that they will rise to the top of the Boston Celtics Lakers.

"But it's still difficult for them to catch up with the Lakers in the West," after Zhuang Fei muttered, the assistant coach of the Boston Celtics on the side, Stephen Green, also added, and Zhuang Fei on the side also nodded in agreement, now the Spurs are eight consecutive wins, winning 14 of the last 15 games, but similarly, the Lakers have also won 13 of the last 14 games.

Although the Lakers will always have some problems now, such as many times Kobe Bryant will still forcibly take over the game at times, but even so, this Laker is capable of solving such problems. The current F6 is not comparable to F4, in the history of the F4 except for Kobe Bryant's energetic point, no one can bring vitality to the Lakers, in this case, even Phil Jackson or O'Fat knows that this kid destroys the team's chemistry They have to use it, but now, because of the arrival of Fan Maniac and Szebia, to a large extent, the Lakers' Kobe Bryant's dependence on the offensive end is getting lower and lower, of course, on the defensive end, Kobe is still the most relied on by the Lakers.

But when facing a team like the Lakers, how many teams in the league can make the Lakers use Kobe Bryant to defend with all their might? So that's why the Lakers' record is much better than the F4 in history, the team's dependence on Kobe is declining, so many times, when Phil Jackson sees Kobe Bryant's hot head, he will not hesitate to replace the Lakers' second leader. Of course, it is really because of this, even if the Spurs are really rising now, they may not really be able to bring too much threat to the Lakers, and the gap between the two teams in front is a bit big.

In the same way, the situation of the Boston Celtics in the East is similar to that of the Lakers, and it is not easy for the Spurs to catch up with the Celtics, because after beating the Rockets at home on January 11, the Boston Celtics will next play the Bucks on January 13 and the Rockets on January 14, the Magic away game on January 16 and the Heat away game on January 17, which also makes the Boston Celtics have won 10 consecutive games in the last ten games. At present, the Boston Celtics have a record of 39 wins and 6 losses, and the Boston Celtics have not lost since 2004, of course, this is also related to the fact that the team has been too weak in the last month after entering 2004, but in any case, the current Celtics are also because of the performance in 2004 This period of time not only solidified their first position in the league, but also widened the gap with the Lakers a little.

Now the Spurs are up after half a season of running-in, and Zhuang Fei is also very soon to meet this recent rapid rise of the team, January 19, 2004, Boston North Shore Garden, this is the Boston Celtics at home and the Spurs game, in the last game between the two teams, Zhuang Fei led the team to easily defeat the opponent of last season's finals on the road, and in this game, the Boston Celtics are not so easy to win, Although the final game was still won by the Boston Celtics at home, and the final score was 100-94, it seemed that the Boston Celtics won easily, but the process of the game was not as the final score showed. In fact, the team bit the Celtics from the beginning, and it was not until the final fourth quarter that the team had physical problems that allowed the Celtics to gradually open up the difference.

And in this game, Zhuang Fei also saw the reason why this team will rise, and Popovich's current use of Parker and Kidd has surprised Zhuang Fei. (To be continued.) )
