Chapter 263: I have to win this year

Chapter 263 is going to win this year

In Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Bucks failed to finish the series at home.

'They took 25 penalties and we only had seven. Karl lashed out at the referee, "That's why we're going to Detroit to tie seven." ”

The league quickly issued Carl a $10,000 ticket to "reward" him.

Yu Fei didn't know how to evaluate this game, although the Pistons once again suppressed the Bucks' hand, but the problem was that the Pistons' offense didn't play well.

When both sides are in a bad hand, the number of free throws can make the difference between the game and the game.

Since the 2002 Western Conference Finals, Yu Fei has believed that the top level of the league has arranged for each series, because some series are more valuable to play to a tiebreaker.

Just like that year's Western showdown between the Kings and the Lakers, the seven-tie brought tens of millions of dollars to the league.

Although the Bucks and Pistons do not have so much commercial value, with the grievances of Auburn Hills Palace as a foreshadowing, coupled with the existence of Yu Fei, it is advantageous for the two teams to play a tie-break for professional basketball that needs a "story".

If the Bucks win, then this is the story of Frye Yu's Bloody Enemy and leaving his name forever in every Detroitman's nightmare.

If the Pistons win, it will also be a story of revenge, and it is the story of a once defeated brave man who came to the same stage to defeat a dragon who has transformed into an evil dragon after a year.

The next day, a good thing washed away the gloom of the sixth defeat.

After voting, Yu Fei narrowly defeated Steve Nash and was voted the 2004-05 regular season MVP.

As soon as this news came out, it caused a huge earthquake in the outside world.

Congratulations to Yu Fei were quickly drowned out by Nash's supporters.

Yes, the Bucks have had a bad season this season.

That's right, Yu Fei's data is monster-level.

Of course, everyone admits that Yu Fei is a player, and he may be much better than Nash.

But in the eyes of some, Yu Fei's election as MVP means a change in the award criteria.

"Think about it, if the standard of MVP is not based on how much change the player brings to his team, not on the team's record, and blindly pursues the strong, crazy stats of the individual, then, from the '60s to the present, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, they should be the MVP every year."

"But it didn't happen because we have some basic guidelines that the MVP doesn't belong to the best player in the literal sense of the word, it should belong to the best player of the best team that makes a huge difference to the team."

"Steve Nash's MVP has been stolen and he may never get his hands on this award again, this must be the day when the award authority of professional basketball is completely dead!"

Leading the charge was Bill Simmons, who previously threatened to accept Yu Fei as MVP, but did not accept him into the defensive lineup.

Simmons' views are mainstream.

Yu Fei's 53 wins with a broken team with monster stats is great, but it can't compare to what Nash did in Phoenix.

In their eyes, a core point guard who averaged 15.5 points and 11.5 assists per game improved the team from only 29 wins last season to 62 wins, which is much higher than the monster performance of 36+8+8 per game and 53 wins per game after losing the first and second helpers.

Some anonymous voters said: "Steve Nash was definitely my top choice, however, when I saw Frye's data, I wavered. ”

However, no matter how the outside world rebukes the voting result, the result is irreversible.

Yu Fei won his second MVP trophy, which made Reebok rejoice.

On the day of the tie-break, the Bucks traveled to Detroit.

Reebok's people prepared a T-shirt for Yu Fei at the airport, which read: I have been here before, I won last year, and I will win this year.

(Came before. Won last year. Winning again this year)、

"What is this?"

Yu Fei likes this copywriting, however, he wants to know what Reebok is doing with this suddenly?

Quint Demio smiled: "They want to use your cash cow to develop more products, and the average number of viewers per game between you and the Pistons is close to 10 million, such a good gimmick, no need to use it in vain." ”

"Okay." Yu Fei asked, "Then what can I get besides getting more Detroit people who hate me?" ”

"10% dividend."

Yu Fei said: "It seems that I have one more reason to win the tiebreaker." ”

After that, Yu Fei took the team bus to the hotel.

When they came outside the hotel, they saw a crowd of people and people from the Sheriff's Office.

A bunch of crazy Pistons fans attacked every Bucks player with foul language.

Yu Fei glanced at them, and suddenly took off his coat, revealing the T-shirt that Reebok had specially prepared for him.

"Da Fei, are you sure it's a good idea to provoke them here?" Barry asked nervously.

Yu Fei asked him rhetorically: "They say that you are not as good as your father's dick hair, aren't you angry?" ”

Barry's expression was gloomy, and he suddenly burst out and said, "FUCK! These damn bunch."

"That's right, that's it, there's no need to be polite to them."

Four o'clock in the afternoon

The bucks set off for Auburn Hills.

One of the features of the Pistons' home games is that they are usually scheduled around 5 p.m.

It's the same today.

The Bucks arrived an hour early, but the scene was already packed.

Mainly the on-site staff, ABC, TNT and ESPN, several media outlets regarded this game as the most important game before the finals.

ESPN's Jim Gray wanted to invite Yu Fei for a short interview before the game.

Yu Fei rejected him, "Jim, everything I want to say is in the game." ”

Then, Yu Fei kept shooting.

His shooting is irregular, and he shoots from wherever he picks up the ball.

He did the same thing until the audience was open.

Security and protection have been tightened since the last palace brawl, and in the words of the palace officials, they have been able to make sure that the scene is foolproof.

The fans may not want to throw anything into the arena anymore, but that doesn't stop them from doing something else to disgust Yu Fei.

Satirical posters, hate quotes and spoof caricatures.

Among them, the spoof cartoons are the most intoxicating for Yu Fei, the Detroit people imagine him as a slave owner, and then draw the faces of his teammates to the dogs, and then he leads the ropes.

It reads: Frye Yu and his wild dogs are doomed!

Due to Mobley's injury, the Bucks opted to put Trevor Ariza in the starting lineup tonight.

The advantage of this is that the Bucks' defensive intensity will increase, and the downside is obvious, that is, there is a lack of space points on the outside, and the Pistons will become more frequent.

Ariza knew exactly what was going to happen, so she warmed up with her shots as seriously as Yu Fei.

Seeing that Ariza didn't even have a consistent three-point shooting rate in practice, Leitner couldn't help but say a few words to him: "Rookie, don't be too outrageous!" ”

"Is this shooting rate really the result of 700 goals a day?"

Ariza said angrily, "Shut up, old fellow! Who doesn't have a time when they're out of state? ”

Leitner scoffed, "Mr. Ariza, you've been shooting 29 percent from beyond the arc this season, and if that's out of shape, you've been out of shape for a whole season." ”

Ariza couldn't refute and threw another shot.

"Bang!"

Leitner shook his head, looking like he had given up on continuing to "motivate" Ariza.

Then, Yu Fei stood in a distant position and asked, "Chris, are you bullying rookies again?" ”

"Yes, he not only bullied me but also affected my training!"

Ariza succeeded in leaving the impression of a bad dog in Leitner's mind.

They all say that they are like the dog next to Fry, but what about this rookie...... If you're a dog, you're at least a Rottweiler, this rookie... A rebellious beagle at most!

"Chris, don't affect him."

Yu Fei stood two meters outside the three-point line and shot again.

"Fry, how do you stand so far and shoot?" Ariza asked in surprise.

Yu Fei didn't even look at him: "You vote for you, don't worry about me." ”

Under the basket, Lawson is like a ruthless passing machine, picking up the ball and passing it out.

In the same position, Yu Fei shot again.

"Huh!"

"So accurate?" Ariza called out.

"I've scored 13 goals in a row," Leitner said. ”

Ariza hurriedly asked, "Is there any secret?" ”

It's not that Yu Fei hasn't taught Ariza to shoot, but when he told him how to adjust his breath, the other party seemed to listen to a book from heaven.

"It's not that I don't teach you, this matter varies from person to person, you may need more time."

After a while, the warm-up session was over.

The starters of both sides gathered around the head coach to listen to the pre-opening instructions.

Karl didn't want to say much about the game plan, because the series was in Game 7 and both sides figured each other out.

Now it's a matter of who plays better on the spot and who makes fewer mistakes.

"We're standing here tonight and playing Game 7 of the series with Detroit for the sake of glory!" Carl felt like he wasn't himself tonight, but like his unemployed nemesis, but those were his words. "It's not about three in a row, it's not about the glory we're after, you know what we're fighting for tonight?"

Ariza said what Yu Fei said: "For everyone? ”

"Not bad!" Carl gave him an approving look, "It's a personal vendetta, we're fighting for those who can't stand here because of Detroit!" ”

With that, Karl put the player on the field.

It was the most meaningless pre-game setup he'd ever done, but he felt he had to say it.

Subsequently, players from both sides came on the field.

Yu Fei walked in front of Prince as usual.

What he didn't expect was that someone from the Pistons would dare to come up to him and make a declaration of victory.

Ben Wallace seems to feel that this revenge is incomplete if they don't make it clear before they win.

"I've been here before, I won last year, and I'm going to win this year." Big Ben asked Yu Fei, "That's what you said, right?" ”

In fact, it's the copy on a buddy t-shirt.

Yu Fei didn't need to explain this, and asked rhetorically, "So what?" ”

Big Ben said, "We'll let you take that back." ”

"Let's use this kind of to scare children." Yu Fei sneered, "If you can do it, we won't have to fight the seventh game." ”

PS: I went to New Year's Eve too late last night, and I got home and set an alarm clock at half past nine to get up, but you know, I overslept.

PPS: I wish you all a happy new year, my New Year's wish is to have at least one month of full attendance and no time off.
