I Really Just Want to Hit the Iron

Vol 2 Chapter 379: Overcome obstacles and face the test! (Five thousand words big

, After the Raptors successfully won this year's first playoff win...

Immediately after the game, espn shared a cold knowledge with the fans on its official website.

That is, so far this season, the Raptors are the least favorite team to call a timeout among all the 29 NBA teams.

"Can you believe that Coach John Davis didn't even call a timeout in their playoff opener?"

On the Internet, after being popularized by espn of this cold knowledge, many fans have teased that Davis is actually the real "Zen Master" in this league.

Now, the real "Zen Master" should be like Davis, and he should not be surprised everywhere and not chaos when he is in danger.

As for the false "Zen Master"?

Oh, isn't the old KFC grandpa standing on the Lakers bench going back to sell burgers?

This season, as the Raptors get better and better, Davis has become a legendary coach in the hearts of many fans.

But for Su Feng, who is familiar with the development history of NBA in the next 20 years, he is very clear...

How high can the current public opinion hold the Raptors? Then when the Raptors encounter a trough...

The public opinion at that time can also trample the Raptors.

As written in "Three Body", from hero to trash, from trash to savior, and finally from savior to dictator...

In fact, most sports athletes have had similar experiences to Luo Ji.

In competitive sports, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.

Therefore, it is the old saying.

In this April of 2000, only Su Feng himself knew what he was carrying on his shoulders.

...

On the 26th, after a two-day break, the Raptors continued to play against the Knicks at home.

This is the second match between the two teams in the first round of the playoffs.

The Raptors' bench players once again ushered in a carnival.

Because of this game, after the first half, the Raptors' lead has come to 28 points.

In the third quarter, Davis took the initiative to withdraw the main players after only half of the quarter.

From the comparison of the strength of the two teams' lineups, after the first game, the Knicks shouldn't have played so badly.

However, in fact, after the first match between the two teams, the Knicks players were on the verge of collapse in their mentality.

In the game, once falling behind, the Knicks players will become more frustrated and have no desire to chase points.

As a result, as the Raptors on the court continue to expand the point difference, the Knicks players will simply lie flat.

In the end, the score of this game was 81 to 114. After winning the game, the Raptors had already achieved the match point in this series.

After the game, the poor performance of the Knicks players on the court was also collectively bombarded by the New York media.

On the Internet, many Knicks fans even complained. If the Knicks still behaved like this, it would be better to let them fight.

However, Su Feng has a different view on the rhetoric of New York fans and the media.

Because in Su Feng's view, that is, the Knicks' players have good professionalism. Otherwise, just the pressure of New York, who is willing to work for the Knicks?

It is true that Ewing, Johnson, and Houston should not be so glass-hearted as veterans who have been battle-tested.

However, you also have to look at the end of the Knicks.

Well, even legendary stars like Ewing have been deprived of the right to wear Knicks jerseys and breathe air by Knicks fans, let alone other people?

To put it bluntly, in Su Feng's view, this Knicks is useless even if anyone is changed.

Because of a weird team like the Knicks...

It is better to be honestly responsible for paying the luxury tax to the league...

...

On the 29th, the Raptors and Knicks moved to New York.

Although holding two match points in hand, the sweep has become the only tacit goal of the Raptors team in this visit to New York.

In the first quarter of the game, the Knicks were beaten by the Raptors in an 18-0 climax.

The irony of the result is that amid the deafening boos of the fans on the scene, the man who stood up on the Knicks whose military spirit had already collapsed...

Or Ewing.

Although the collapse of the empire contest was destined, on this night, Ewing still rushed to the Raptors' position without hesitation.

In the second half of the first quarter, Ewing used his own singles many times to stop the rout for the Knicks.

however......

In the second quarter of the game, facing the Raptors' offensive like a storm, the Knicks still failed to withstand.

At the end of midfield, the Knicks trailed the Raptors by 25 points.

In the third quarter, almost all commentators across the United States began to discuss the Raptors' opponents in the next round.

And Madison Square Garden, the arrogant New York fans, are using their boos and curses to continue to express their dissatisfaction to the Knicks players on the court.

"Give me all the balls!"

On the court, after looking around the court for a week, Ewing, who was slightly exhausted, patted Ward on the shoulder and said.

In the third quarter of the game, as the Knicks are falling behind more and more, many Knicks players on the court seem to be restrained when attacking.

Even though, Ewing also knew that what he did next was totally meaningless...

But even if it made no sense, Ewing wanted to take the lead again.

"it is good!"

Looking up at Ewing, Ward did not refuse Ewing's last request.

In fairy tales, many of us have heard stories about heroes fighting against evil bosses at the last moment.

But on this night, the fairy tale does not belong to the Knicks and Ewing.

A few minutes later, when Patrick Ewing was replaced by Don Cheney, what he got was neither the applause and cheers in the fairy tale, nor the embrace of the blonde girl...

Rather, that resounded through the audience...

American "get out".

20 points and 8 rebounds were the answers that Ewing handed over when he was replaced.

In this way, the "gorilla", who once competed with Olajuwon in the finals in the finals, one of the top 50 stars of the NBA, ended his 99/00 season in his boos.

It is worth mentioning that on the Raptors side, when Su Feng was replaced, what the stunned Knicks fans gave him was...

It was like the cheers of Napoleon's cavalry when they arrived in Paris.

The supreme Majesty Su Feng arrived today in New York, which has been faithfully supporting him!

In the end, 95 to 116, the Raptors defeated the Knicks 3-0 and successfully advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals.

After the game, online fans complained about Su Feng's performance in the first round of this year's playoffs.

Because in the three games with the Knicks, Su Feng averaged only 22 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block per game.

Of course, the point of fans complaining is not that Su Feng's performance is not good enough...

But...

If they continue to fight like this, the honeys are very worried that Su Feng will be mistaken for a bastard.

"The Raptors are really too strong, so strong that they don't even need Su Feng to make a move, and their opponent has already fallen."

"This season, many people are saying that Su Feng lacks shots at critical moments.

But now the question is, will Su Feng have a chance to play at a critical moment? "

"In my opinion, maybe Shaq feels more intuitive on the court.

But have you ever thought about it, why does such a Shaq always have to fight his opponents until the last few minutes to decide the outcome? "

"There is no doubt that Su Feng is the player most worthy of mvp! In addition, this year's best coach, I vote for John Davis!"

One thing to say is that although the Internet is not as developed as it will be in the future, let alone watching the interaction of fans on the Internet, Su Feng is quite happy.

just......

Looking at these familiar comments, Su Feng always felt that after Curry entered the league in the future, it would be difficult for him to surprise people in this regard.

Because, his Uncle Su Feng had already done all this in 2000.

...

After successfully advancing to the semifinals, the Raptors have to wait a little bit for their semifinal opponents.

Because on the other side, the Pistons and Heat fought 2 to 2 in the first four games.

In Su Feng's previous life, relying on a solid defensive system, the Heat did not give the Pistons too many opportunities.

However, in this life, due to historical changes, the overall strength of the Pistons can no longer be measured by the same period in history.

After veteran Dumars retired, this season, the Pistons second-year student Hughes averaged 16.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists in the regular season.

As the right-hand man of Grant Hill, Hughes's rapid growth not only made Hill less pressure on offense, but also a very reliable defender in defense.

In addition, as the right arm of Hill's right-hand man, Stackhouse, whose confidence has soared in this life, can always come forward at critical moments.

In addition, Joe Smith, who followed the Raptors to win the championship last year, broke the demons...

To be reasonable, in Su Feng's view, Riley is really good.

Because facing such a Pistons that set off a youth storm, the Heat actually relied on tenacious willpower and strict discipline to force the Pistons into the final battle of life and death.

Strong!

Riley!

Or else, you work harder to get rid of this Pistons by the way?

Cough, well, Su Feng's beautiful fantasy finally failed to become a reality.

On May 4, while the Raptors were resting and waiting patiently for their opponents in the Eastern Conference semifinals, another super center from the 90s fell in the American Airlines Center Arena in Miami...

Relying on the excellent performance of three muskets on the outside and scored 70 points, the Pistons had the last laugh in the decisive battle with the Heat.

And Mourning's refusal to be replaced by Riley in the fourth quarter has become a classic.

At that time, because the Heat had been behind the Pistons by as much as 20 points when they were about to end the game with only 3 minutes left, Riley decided to replace Mourning in order to give Mourning his last face.

However, for Tiehan Moning, he didn't want such a face.

"I can still fight! Don't change me!"

On the sidelines, looking at Mourning with a persistent look, Riley finally chose to respect the soldier's decision after a long sigh.

Of course, unlike a certain background board in New York, because Mourning still did not give up at the last moment, the Miami fans at the scene were all infected by Mourning's spirit.

At the end of the game, the Heat's fans stood up and gave their applause to Mourning.

As for the tnt TV station, Smith couldn't help but joked: "I don't know how Patrick will feel after seeing this scene?"

Huh...

What do you think Ewing can think?

Is it possible that he can still hit the tears on the plane?

Closer to home.

After the Pistons advanced to the semifinals with the Raptors, the semifinals of the East and West this year have all come out.

The first is the Eastern Conference. In addition to the Raptors and Pistons series, the Celtics and Pacers also met in the other half.

After the Celtics and Pacers' duel came out, many people in the shop are very curious whether Bird can lead the Pacers and take care of his mentor and old club.

In the West, after the Mavericks eliminated the Spurs 3-1 and the Lakers eliminated the Sonics 3-0, the two teams will compete for a ticket to the Western Conference finals in the Western Conference semifinals.

As for the other half of the west, the Jazz will face the Blazers.

Since from the semifinals, the 5 games with 3 wins will become 7 games with 4 wins, so for the eight teams entering the semifinals of the East and the West, the next game will be the real test.

Especially those teams that are aspiring to a championship.

In 7 games of 4 wins, they often not only have to face their opponents, but whether they can advance to the next round ahead of their opponents is also the key to whether they can get to the end.

According to the schedule, the Raptors and Pistons' conference semifinals will start on the 6th.

From the team's physical condition, the Raptors are undoubtedly the better side.

After all, after the knockout of the Knicks, the Raptors players had a rest for almost a week.

In contrast, the Pistons, who just finished their life-and-death battle with the Heat, have only one day off.

Therefore, Davis, D'Antoni, and Rivers all believed that the Raptors did not have any excuses for losing in the G1 game after the results of the semi-finals of the playoffs were released.

On the 5th, the Raptors did not arrange training. Davis hoped that the team could play in the best condition to make a good start to the semifinals.

On the 6th, in the crowded route center arena, the Raptors ushered in their own playoff semi-finals g1 this year.

Before the game, during the warm-up, Stackhouse, Hill, and Joe Smith all took the initiative to greet Su Feng.

Because both Stackhouse and Joe Smith had teammates with Su Feng, they both jokingly told Su Feng during the pre-match chat that they had already told Su Feng’s weaknesses to the Pistons’ head coach. Rick Carlisle.

Regarding this, although the joke was a joke, the conversation made Su Feng more vigilant.

Because Su Feng, who knows the future history very well, knows that Carlisle is by no means a general.

Su Feng's previous life, as one of the future NBA coaches, after arriving in Dallas in the 08/09 season, Carlisle not only quickly cleaned up the mess left by the young general Johnson, but in the 10/11 season, he also led the team that was not The popular Mavericks defeated the Heat in the finals.

In addition, although Rashid Wallace was indeed bought by Larry Brown, if there is no Hamilton, Ben Wallace, Prince and others left by Carlisle, even if Brown will build a defensive system again, I am afraid It is also difficult for the Pistons to remain in the history.

Moreover, Carlisle, who is good at team building, is not the kind of stubborn academic coach.

This season, after he took over the team's coach from Alvin Gentry, the Pistons made a qualitative leap in three-pointers and hits.

In Carlisle's coaching resume, three-pointers have always been a weapon he likes very much.

Of course, unlike offensive coaches like D'Antoni and Nelson, Carlisle is also very good at building a team's defensive system because the balance of offense and defense is the kingly pursuit of Carlisle.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the 10/11 season, the Mavericks built a wall of sighs around Tyson Chandler that made the emperor and Wade desperate.

Therefore, in Su Feng's heart, Carlisle's danger level can definitely be ranked among the top five in the current league.

"Hey, is this the punishment of the World Line?"

On the court, while warming up, watching Carlisle coaching the Pistons two years earlier, at this moment, Su Feng could not help but feel the bitter fruit of changing history without authorization.

Due to the inability of Callesimo in this life, Carlisle, who should have been his assistant coach, also decided in advance to become the head coach.

Coincidentally, because Carlisle’s coaching philosophy coincides with the Pistons, Gentry led the team just after a wave of losses this season...

What Gentry never expected was that his losing streak not only didn't let him get the interest, but also let him directly lose the handsome position of the Pistons.

In short, compared to last year, starting from the semifinals this year, the Raptors will face a strong challenge.

On the court, after chatting with Hill for a few minutes, Su Feng also returned to the bench, quietly waiting for the arrival of the entry style.

In Su Feng's previous life, when many Hill blew about Hill, Su Feng always felt that these people had blown their heads over.

But in this life...

You may not believe it.

Now the number one Hill in this league blows...

It is Su Feng himself.

In the regular season, Hill, who averaged 26 points, 7.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.4 steals per game, may not be statistically better than many of his juniors after the era of data soaring in the future.

However, please do not doubt Hill's strength because of this.

Because this is definitely a top supercar with a catapult and start speed faster than McGrady.

Because of his overly gentle personality, many Hill fans, like Hill, do not like to argue with others about how strong Hill is.

But for Su Feng, who regarded Hill as an idol in his early years, even if he has developed a "three-piece suit" in the past four years, he will not think that his strength is far beyond hope. Above you.

As early as the first round of this year's playoffs, Su Feng had already foreseen the difficulty of this year's semifinals.

At the Airline Center Arena, DJ Martin used his subwoofer-like voice to finish introducing the players of the two teams tonight. The big screen on the scene gave the starting list of the two sides tonight.

Pistons: Terry Mills, Joe Smith, Hill, Stackhouse, Hughes~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Raptors: Big Ben, O'Neal, Su Feng, Carter, McGrady.

Tnt TV, during the pre-match preview, Smith said: "Tonight, in the starting lineup of the two teams, no player is taller than 210 cm. This is the first time in this year's playoffs."

On the side, Derek echoed: "Tall players have dominated the league for a long time, but since the Raptors won with a small lineup last year, this year we found that many teams have begun to follow suit. The Raptors."

In the middle of the court, Big Ben and Mills have stood in the middle circle.

And a few seconds later, a scene that surprised McGrady appeared.

because......

It was the Raptors who started the game tonight!
