All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball Chapter 384: The champion belongs, the **** battle is coming!
"I really just want to strike iron()"
In other words, just as the Raptors successfully advanced into the Eastern Conference Finals, "Cardinal" Auerbach was still wondering how to solve "The Evil" Bird as soon as possible...
In the West, as Su Feng had previously expected, the Lakers were dragged by the Mavericks into a series that caused the Lakers to suffer.
Although O'Neal's dominance is still unstoppable, Phil Jackson was obviously beaten this time in the face of old Nelson's crazy running and bombing tactics.
With the team leading the Mavericks 2-0, the lack of vigilance in the third and fourth games of the Lakers were almost exactly the same losing script.
I have to say that this year's situation suddenly became brighter for the Raptors.
After returning to Toronto with the team, watching the "good news" coming from all over the place, Su Feng has been very happy these past two days.
It turns out that the difficulty of **** has never been for him alone.
Because in this era of rampage, no one can keep themselves out of the picture.
It is worth mentioning that while Su Feng and his teammates waited patiently for their opponents in the finals while eating melons, on May 15th, the results of the NBA 2000 draft draw ceremony were officially released.
Su Feng's previous life, as a famous draft pick in NBA history, the overall quality of the rookies in the 2000 draft was not high.
However, in this life, after Xiao Yao decided to run for the election two years in advance...
As the Xiaoyao Feng, even if the draw ceremony of this year's draft is low, Su Feng still cares more about what sort of pick the team that is aspiring to the championship will get.
However...
After watching this year’s draft lottery with Xiao Yao in Toronto, Su Feng felt that the world was full of malice against him...
Philadelphia.
If we say that in the past two years, the Raptors fans are the happiest group in the world...
In the eyes of the Phillies, they should be the most unlucky group in the world.
Here, the king who was supposed to lead them to revival, is now wearing the Raptors’ No. 23 jersey to beat Toronto people...
Plus this season, the only "answer" Philly fans hoped for, Iverson was reimbursed for almost the entire season due to injury...
So for a while, the whole of Philadelphia this year can be described as overcast.
The faces of fans who love the Philadelphia 76ers have never smiled.
However, on May 15th, when Pat Klaus won the jackpot again in New York, for the Phillies who are in desperation at this moment, they seem to have seen such a loss again. hope.
Look, how "fair, open, and just" the NBA is.
Because after winning the NBA's No. 1 lottery in 1996, the Philadelphia 76ers were once again "lucky" to win the No. 1 lottery this year.
Perhaps, "God" didn't want to see the 76ers who created the Black Eight miracle four years ago sink.
Perhaps, "God" felt that the battle in the East was not tragic enough.
Perhaps, "God" thinks that as a human balloon star, Alan Iverson's helpers are not enough.
In short, believe it or not, the Philadelphia 76ers won the No. 1 lottery in 2000.
"We will not have a second choice in the draft.
Four years ago, we selected Su from China with a 13th pick in the first round.
Four years later, we will also use this number one lottery to choose Yao from China. "
On the evening of the 15th, Pat Klaus, who was interviewed on the plane returning to Philadelphia, couldn't wait to announce their draft plan to the entire North America in a month.
And if his interview was not to fool people, then, in the words of excited rabbits...
The history of Chinese basketball is about to open a new page in a month.
Because, China will have the first NBA draft pick!
Although, many experts and reporters still believe that the 76ers who are working to get rid of Su Feng's shadow may not dare to bet on Xiao Yao, who is only 19 years old...
But for Su Feng, who has an indissoluble bond with Pat Klaus, he knows very well that Klaus is good at everything...
Unfortunately, I can't lie.
"Be prepared, obviously, starting next season, we will be opponents." Su Fengyu said earnestly, patting the shoulder of young Xiao Yao on this day.
At this moment, Xiao Yao, who feels he is still alive in his dream, is touching his head while saying: "Brother Feng, shouldn't this be true?"
Looking at Xiao Yao, whose drawings were broken in Tucson, Su Feng sighed: "I have worked with Pat Klaus for two years, and I know exactly what he is."
"But the top pick... Feng Ge, this is too..."
Too incredible?
Obviously, for the current Xiao Yao, for a while, he still can't accept the reality that he is about to become the NBA No. 1 pick.
Because in the eyes of Xiao Yao, a figure like Feng Ge is only the 13th pick in the first round of the NBA.
For Su Feng, it is not surprising that this Xiao Yao can become the No. 1 pick even if he can run for the election two years in advance.
Because of this life, after he took the lead in pushing open the door of the NBA, the league's view of Asian players, especially Chinese players, has changed a lot.
In addition, this year is the famous draft pick year. Therefore, in Su Feng's view, as long as the NBA scouts are not blind, Yao has a high chance of becoming the No. 1 pick.
Just...
No. 1 pick for the Philadelphia 76ers.
Yao Ming of the Philadelphia 76ers...
His————!
"I don't know how Alan is recovering. It seems that summer has to ask him to come for special training."
As the saying goes, only children eat only from their own bowl.
As a mature adult, the steady Su Feng is very aware of the importance of watching the pot while eating in the bowl.
So, while opening the champagne for Xiao Yao in advance, Su Feng, who has always had a long-term vision, has already set his sights on the longer-term future.
There is no doubt that if Iverson can return to his heyday next year, with Yao Ming...
The 76ers...
More than just taking off?
It's not even nice to say something...
If Xiao Yao can grow faster, I am afraid that the Raptors may not be able to wait for the Celtics to join them in the Eastern Finals.
"Brother Feng, do I need to go to other teams to try out?" asked Xiao Yao, who looked at Su Feng with a solemn expression and didn't know whether he should be happy or worried.
After hearing this, Su Feng said after thinking for a while: "Go, why not?"
As a senior who has been severely beaten by society, Su Feng knows that no matter how kind capitalists say they can’t fully believe this truth, so in his opinion, Xiao Yao’s next trial plan must follow Duffy Arrangements to proceed.
And in this way, Xiao Yao can control his own destiny instead of entrusting his destiny to the Philadelphia 76ers.
"Brother Feng, in terms of sneaker endorsement..."
Looking at Su Feng, who is omniscient and omnipotent, has turned into a novice navigation textbook in his mind, Xiao Yao continued to ask.
Listening to Xiao Yao’s sincere questions, Su Feng smirked and slapped him on the shoulder with a smile: "Mingming, have you heard of the'phenomenon' series?"
……
Many years from now, if you want to ask, what year and month did the flourishing age of Chinese basketball in the minds of Chinese fans begin...
In Su Feng's view, it is probably now.
The year 2000 is destined to be the most important year in the history of Chinese basketball.
Because in this year, Chinese player Su Feng became the youngest player in the history of the NBA to win the regular season MVP.
In addition, on May 15, 2000, the 76ers who won the jackpot also announced their answers to the world in advance.
It’s worth mentioning that although the Sydney Olympics basketball game is still a few months away, as early as May 2000, the Chinese men’s basketball team was ranked second in winning odds. Bit.
For a while, the happy rabbits have even begun to plan how to watch NBA games next season.
Undoubtedly, compared with the time when Su Feng first joined the NBA four years ago, four years later, with the development of the Internet, the huge Chinese market has been fully presented to the NBA.
Along with the influx of sponsors from China, the "God" who manipulated all of this behind the scenes also showed a gratified smile in New York.
Facts have proved that in the NBA, the way people have traveled the most is Stern's routine.
Actually, as early as April this year, after the 76ers expressed their strong desire for Yao Ming, Stern had already written the script secretly.
To put it bluntly, what is the luck of Pat Klaus who won two top picks in four years?
Don't believe it.
In the draft on May 15, 2000, no matter how they were drawn, Pat Klaus and his Philadelphia 76ers could only win the No. 1 pick.
If you know enough about the history of the NBA, especially the history after Stern took over the league, you will find that basically, behind every classic NBA story There is a shadow of Stern.
And the most amazing thing is that it is different from the future joke that thinks he has directed a peerless blockbuster...
Stern can always return him to the athletes on the field at the most appropriate time.
Whether it is Raul Merion’s Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick, or the newly emerging Kamer brothers...
Diversified alliances are what Stern wants.
So, how can Iverson, an idol of black Americans, be forgotten by this old Jewish man?
As a big city in the eastern United States, Stern knew that desperate Philadelphia needed hope.
As the first American city that rabbits like since they learned about the NBA, Philadelphia is precisely the city that Yao Ming is the most favored in this year's draft.
So, is there a better script than sending Yao Ming to Philadelphia?
Here, after Pat Klaus spoiled the results of their draft to the nation in advance, now the entire rabbit family is completely immersed in joy.
Look, two years ago, you kicked out a king from China, but now you are about to welcome a giant from China. If you don't cherish it, who can you blame?
Tsk——!
Simply perfect.
Of course, compared to this almost perfect script, Stern is more concerned about the current semifinals of the East and West.
In the east, the "evil disciples" still failed to defeat the counterattack "mentor" drama after all.
Relying on Duncan's steady performance in the last two games, the Celtics eventually won the two cities in a row, eliminated the Pacers by a big score of 4 to 2, and played in the Eastern Conference finals with the Raptors for two consecutive years.
In the West, young cowboys still need time to settle.
O'Neal, who is desperately eager for the championship, and Kobe, who is also desperately eager for the championship, played an unforgettable OK connection for the Lakers fans in the fifth and sixth games, and the Lakers also eliminated by 4-2. After the Mavericks, he played with the Trail Blazers in the Western Conference finals.
At this point, only the last three BO7s are left in the playoffs that determine the king's ownership.
Is it a powerful, trying to defend the Raptors?
Or are you planning to make a shame and cheer up the Lakers again this year?
Or the Celtics who learned from the past and tried to break the monopoly of the king?
And the pioneer of the old Ji Fu Chi ambition, led by the former league's first small forward Pippen?
Toronto, after a week-long rest, two days later, that is, May 21, the Raptors will take the lead to meet the test.
According to the rules, the Eastern Conference Finals is still the 22111 format.
Before the game, after leading the team to Toronto, the Celtics' actual coach Auerbach expressed his confidence in defeating the Raptors in an interview.
Because this year is not only the year that Su Feng and O'Neal jumped over the dragon gate, but also the year that Duncan had the fastest growth.
In addition, the growth of Ray Allen and Marbury and the addition of Artest also gave Auerbach the hope of defeating the Raptors.
Of course, in words, Auerbach also expressed dissatisfaction that people pay too much attention to Su Feng and O'Neill.
Because in the view of this old coach, when people discuss the best players in the league today, they should also put Duncan together.
And it seems to be to make the cardinal more sour...
On the 21st, at the Toronto Route Center Arena, the Raptors uniform team once again held a coronation ceremony for Su Feng.
Different from the previous coronation ceremony held in Detroit...
This time, Su Feng not only received the Podorov Cup again in the worship of 20,000 fans at the scene, but also the introduction by DJ Martin on the scene exceeded 10 minutes for the first time.
Here, now, standing in front of you is... (10,000 words omitted here)
The future history of the NBA, Su Feng!
In short, after this huge coronation ceremony, the morale of the entire Raptors can be described as full.
Similarly, the anger value of the Celtics opposite...
It's also full to the extreme~IndoMTL.com~ Maybe one day, Boston fans will lose confidence in the Celtics and the NBA, because today, we have not been able to return to the top of the king like the fans. Promise of.
But I think that is definitely not today.
Maybe one day, we will find that we are still doing nothing after giving everything away.
But that is definitely not today.
Today, the Boston Celtics will fight the Toronto Raptors in blood!
Let's step on the court and tell the people in Toronto with action, let's be angry! "
On the Celtics bench, before the start of the game, Celtics coach Miller Carr looked at his disciples and said.
As a researcher in this alliance who has studied John Davis for a whole year, after setting aside various prejudices about Davis from the outside world, I have to say that Karl has indeed grown.
And just as Carl ignited the fighting spirit of the Celtics through his own speech, almost the same scene was staged on the Raptors bench...
"I have a dream..."
Looking at his lovely group of disciples, a generation of legendary coach Davis secretly took out the manuscript he had memorized all night before the players were ready to play.
Then, there is no more.
Because tonight, the Raptors will fight for honor!
