All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball Chapter 271: Best opening, no one doesn’t love it
Madison Square Garden, after the players of the two teams warmed up, the big screen showed the start of the two teams tonight.
Raptors: Big Ben, Jordan, Su Feng, Carter, Nash.
Knicks: Ewing, Kurt Thomas, Johnson, Houston, Ward.
Su Feng's previous life, the 98/99 season can be said to be the pinnacle of Van Gundy's coaching.
This season, in the regular season only ranked eighth, the Knicks staged the famous "Black Eight Legend" in the playoffs.
Furthermore, under the premise of losing Ewing in the Eastern Conference Finals, the all-people Knicks eliminated the Pacers in one fell swoop and successfully entered the Finals.
No way, the Knicks and Van Gundy are so magical right now.
In the future, there will be special technical statistics to review the Knicks during this period. As a result, there will be a data that will make Ewing very embarrassed.
That is often when Ewing is absent, this Knicks will play better.
In this life, in terms of lineup, the Knicks and Su Feng have similar memories.
Except that Oakley stayed on the team and Camby did not come, Sprewell, as Su Feng remembered, became Van Gundy's favorite this season.
However, Sprewell's main task this season is to serve as the team's sixth man, who will lead the bench to score points.
In addition, in the new season, in the starting No. 4 position, Van Gundy boldly used Thomas that the Knicks management hired from Dallas.
In Van Gundy's expectation, Thomas, who has excellent athletic ability, can use his enthusiasm to help Ewing.
However, during the offseason, Ewing, who has been busy negotiating with labor and management, has not trained much, and his performance this season is nothing short of a hip.
Moreover, Johnson, who had a bigger **** in the offseason, was still placed at the small forward position by Van Gundy this season, and this arrangement also made the Knicks' frontline extremely lack of speed this season.
In the future, after Ewing's reimbursement, Johnson will immediately stand up to save the world, not because Johnson and Ewing are really in conflict.
And precisely because, only after Ewing was reimbursed, Van Gundy would think of letting the "aunt" go inside.
Of course, even if there are a lot of problems, Van Gundy's deck of cards in his hand is definitely a set of gods.
It's a pity that Van Gundy's stubbornness caused this Knicks to have a certain lower limit, but lost a higher upper limit.
Tonight, in the face of the recent hot Raptors, when he saw the Raptors' starting lineup, Van Gundy touched his little bald head and first drew a big question mark to John Davis.
John, you are such a genius.
You actually asked Jordan to play position four? And dare to put three swingers on the field at the same time, and the center only puts on a big book whose actual height is less than two meters?
Obviously, if Van Gundy can understand the Raptors' starting starter, then he should change his name to Pat Van Gundy.
Miami.
Reilly, who is preparing to lead the Heat into the new season, saw the Raptors’ starting lineup tonight through the TV in the team’s locker room...
Although Jordan surprisingly appeared on the 4th position when the Raptors announced the big roster before, when this scene really happened, Riley still wanted to scold his mother.
Because Jie, it's the swingman lineup Riley wants to play most.
Be dead, John!
If you don't send someone to assassinate you, then I won't be called Pat Riley!
Back to the scene in New York, TNT TV, after seeing the Raptors’ starting five tigers, Smith guessed: “The Raptors have put up a small lineup tonight. Will their intention be to speed up? The rhythm of the game, how about using fast breaks to kill the game?"
On the side, Knight, who played with Smith, said, "Are you kidding me? Playing in front of the Knicks defense?
Hey, man, have you really played in the NBA? "
Smith, who was stunned by Knight, spread his hands, "What about it? Did you give me two championship rings?"
"Well, great Kenny, please tell me how can this Raptors beat the Knicks with a fast break?" Knight said, looking at Smith.
"I don't know, but I used to..."
Originally, Smith wanted to say that when he played for the 76ers, the 76ers beat the Knicks with a fast break, but before he could finish talking, Knight interrupted:
"Since you don't know, then as a professional commentator, Kenny, you must maintain a fair and objective attitude to explain.
You can't be so inclined to the Raptors in commentary just because you like Sue so much. "Nate, who had a stiff relationship with Smith, took the opportunity to complain about Smith.
As the former trump card commentator of TNT TV station, since Smith joined TNT, Knight's commentary has often been criticized by fans.
To put it bluntly, as long as this product is a little capable, the future TNT TV station will not be the Big Three, but the Four Emperors.
In Knight's view, Smith's status as a former NBA champion is the reason why he can win fans.
So now as long as there is a chance, Knight will seize the opportunity to start Smith's group.
It’s just that, how can Smith, who has a great mentality, have a general knowledge of Knight?
Smith, who has worked with Davis and Su Feng, knows very well that maybe other teams can't do it in this era, but this Raptors is different.
In the middle of the court, when the "Gorilla" saw Jordan unexpectedly appear in front of him as the Raptors' starting power forward, Ewing, who had a relationship with Jordan and could write a grudge, couldn't help but face Jordan at this moment. With emotion:
"Michael, it seems we are all old."
In Ewing's view, the reason why Jordan played the fourth position is because he can no longer run like he did when he was young, so he had to accept this change.
Just...
Ewing's hot face is destined to stick to Jordan's cold ass.
Because Jordan is willing to accept change only because he wants to win a championship.
Ewing, who was ignored by Jordan, was not annoyed. Since the shutdown ended, the gorilla felt that he had understood life.
One minute later, amid the cheers of nearly 20,000 New York fans on the scene, Yuyin Knicks jumped for the first attack.
Van Gundy's son Ward was responsible for the dribble for the half-time.
TNT TV, Knight laughed and said: "The Knicks have absolute heights in the starting lineup. As long as they can pass the ball to Patrick's hands, their offense will be completed easily."
On the court, perhaps after hearing Knight's commentary, Ward gave the ball to the wing after halftime, and then the Knicks player on the wing dropped the ball to Ewing.
However, just when people thought that Ewing would receive the ball and use his signature bunny to make the Knicks' first attack in the new season, on the other side, the Raptors had already completed a defensive rotation.
Jordan quickly flanked Ewing, and Su Feng went inside and jammed Thomas for Jordan.
The Knicks who are really notable on the perimeter are only Houston, and at this time, Carter is watching him closely.
As a result, the Raptors inside, after trying to make a big profit, Ewing froze.
Slap——!
People are ruthless faster.
A cutout steal from the "old gangster".
Hong Kong Zhen, that is, Jordan is not as fast and agile as before. Otherwise, this new season's Raptors' first attack should be won by Jordan through one dragon at a time.
On the court, because the Raptors played a small lineup tonight, after Ewing's error was intercepted, the Knicks' players quickly retreated and did not give the Raptors a chance to break the ball.
It’s just that, a real seven-second quick break, but it’s never the first to grab a conversion.
After Jordan passed the ball to Nash, suddenly, with the help of Su Feng's pick and roll, Nash suddenly got up and passed Ward like a wind.
Su Feng, who gave Nash the pick and roll, also followed Nash and quickly went straight into the Knicks' penalty area.
Now, when Ewing hasn't returned, the Knicks don't even talk about false defenses, and they didn't even stand well.
Fortunately, although Su Feng used the running position to open the distance between him and Johnson for the first time, Houston quickly followed Su Feng in turns.
But...
Just when the Knicks players thought that the Raptors' offense should be turned into a battle of positions, on the court, Nash continued to look at Su Feng, while facing the basket, and threw out an empty pick.
This is, don’t look at the air relay!
"Steve, Sue has already run, do you want to pass the ball back to Patrick?"
TNT TV, Knight, who speaks at an amazing speed, will definitely regret his habit of speaking too fast in two seconds.
Because of Ewing, who just retired, how could he receive a "pass" from Nash at this height?
In the Knicks' penalty area, after jumping up, Ewing, who was still a full arm away from basketball, thought that Nash was just a pass error.
After all, at this height, even if Su Feng has not run, Su Feng cannot get it.
Furthermore, Jordan is still slowly swinging around the three-point line. In addition, Big Ben has just completed the pick and roll for his teammates.
Eh...
Wait! ?
Just passing the cover of Big Ben, what is the name of the kid who ran in from the other side?
Don't worry, Ewing will have plenty of time to remember this man's name for a long time to come.
"Basketball Holy Land", when Vince Carter appeared on Ewing's head, the entire Madison Square Garden fell silent for an instant.
This...
This is impossible!
Looking at the shadow that completely concealed his huge body, Ewing's pupils were enlarged countless times in an instant.
Similar to Su Feng's "Meteor Slam Dunk", Carter fully expands his body at this moment, like a big bow flying in the sky.
However, unlike "Meteor Slam Dunk", after catching the basketball with his big hands, relying on strong explosive power, Carter chose to continue sailing forward with this ball!
Warning!
A UFO has appeared over New York!
Kang Dang——!
If one V One is an open position for Jordan, then in Carter's philosophy of buckle, there is only one defender in front of him, and that is no different from an open position.
2 to 0.
The silent Madison Square Garden is the best compliment to Carter's dunk.
On the TNT TV station, Smith said excitedly: "Oh hoo, Vince smashed Patrick!
In 9 seconds, the Raptors took only 9 seconds to organize the attack from the start to the completion! "
Smith's last sentence was because he was already shocked by Carter's dunk.
His last sentence is to remind Knight, who just said that it is impossible to play a fast break in front of the Knicks defense...
A 9-second attack, is it a fast break?
On the field, after dunking and landing, Carter raised his mouth coldly, looking at the petrified Ewing, with an expression as if he was the most beautiful boy in the audience.
"Su, I have completed my bet!" In addition, regardless of how others might think about this sentence, Carter shouted to Su Feng.
At this time, Ewing, who had just been released from the petrochemical state, immediately became petrified again...
Gamble! ?
Hi Nima!
This rookie, is it taking me to make a bet?
I have to say, this is definitely the fastest response ever in Ewing's brain.
However, before Ewing was able to find Carter's theory, Thomas, who was about to serve the baseline, was already confused.
Because...
On the court, the Raptors guarded the court and pressed on.
Su Feng and Carter are in charge of the grab. Jordan sits in the back, and Da originally intercepted the high-altitude ball. This is the Raptors version of the "112 I help you speed up defense".
Anyway, you don’t want to play fast, so we will force you to play fast.
For this ball, Ward was not ready to receive the ball, and Thomas' serve was also very "magic."
Because of the latter, what was sent out was a blow to the earth, do you dare to believe?
On the court, Shichi Feng said that Shichi Feng was faster. After reaching out and breaking the baseline ball sent by Thomas, Su Feng took a step and took off directly!
Ewing, who was cast by Carter with petrification magic, because of his excellent habit of assisting defense and replenishing defense, after urgently lifting the petrification state, he hurriedly moved towards Su Feng's jump-off position and opened his hands to stop him.
Okay...
As an excellent background board, Ewing is really self-conscious as a background board.
Because if he chooses to pull, hug, elbow, or throw this ball, then he may still have a chance to destroy Su Feng's dunk.
However, in the NBA, a defense like this center with open hands is most likely to be blocked.
After all, the super people here will not give up the opportunity to perform because there are obstacles in front of them.
So, only a few seconds have passed since Carter snapped Madison Square Garden...
With Su Feng holding Thor's Hammer, as if a bolt of lightning pierced the sky of New York, Smith, who had not yet caught his breath, said with difficulty, "Su... also smashed Patrick! "
"This...If I remember correctly, this is Sue. He has deducted Patrick for the third time in his career, right?" A few seconds later, Smith returned a little blood and then added.
As the saying goes, I don’t have enough jumping, so I’m here to get together.
Although Su Feng's one-handed snap button, the height is far worse than Carter.
But he gained 102.9 kilograms in the summer, and he had the same sense of power in the dunk.
And unlike Carter who only raised the corner of his mouth coldly, this ball, after landing, Su Feng beat his chest while pausing his feet, from the aura, it was much more brutal than Carter just now.
Slap——!
On the sidelines, the coffee in the hands of Spike Lee, a famous Knicks audience, has fallen to the floor.
4 to 0.
In "Slam Dunk", the famous point guard of the Mountain King has a classic saying that dunks and mid-range shots are two points, no different.
However, on the basketball court, the meaning of a dunk is different from a mid-range shot.
Because of the shock and deterrence brought by the dunk, even if you think it does not, it will exist objectively.
Carter's first buckle, it was a fascinating buckle.
And Su Feng's second button is more like a domineering declaration.
On the Raptors bench, McGrady, who also participated in the Ewing bet before the game, is not calm.
Because of the progress of Carter and Su Feng’s task completion, this is too fast, right?
To be honest, in fact, these two buckles by Carter and Su Feng have a certain degree of chance.
However, gambling appointments does not matter if you are accidental or not.
Meddie started to panic.
Because if according to the gambling agreement, after the game is over, he is the only one who fails to deduct Ewing, then he will have to give Carter and Su Feng $10,000 each.
For McGrady, who usually spends money lavishly, he doesn’t have a dime extra...
And if McGrady’s voice is translated into Chinese, at this moment, his self-deprecating voice is probably as follows:
My Tracy is not born to be strong, I am just born to be forced to be cold by two monsters.
……
On the court, after Su Feng's dunk, Van Gundy hurriedly called out a timeout.
Here, this is the effect of two shots.
Van Gundy knew that after these two deductions, maybe Ewing's mentality would explode directly.
So, Van Gundy decided to let the players slow down, and by the way, let the enthusiasm of the Raptors cease.
However, Van Gundy never dreamed that it was the timeout he called out from Ewing's perspective that completely changed the trajectory of the game.
On the other side, during the timeout, on the Raptors bench, after noticing Medina's aggrieved expression, Su Feng secretly gave Nash a elbow.
The sensible Nash immediately hugged his knee and looked at Coach Davis in pain and said: "Coach, I feel my knee hurts a bit, and I may need to rest."
Go...
For Nash’s acting skills, maybe he can fool Jordan, but how can he fool Davis?
Davis also heard the gambling agreement of the three of Sukamai before the game, so he knew that Nash was giving McGrady a chance to play.
Of course, although I saw through Nash's acting skills, Davis did not reveal it.
Because in Davis's view, this is a symbol of the good feelings of the Raptors.
And if McGrady can also complete his mission in this game, then Davis knows that this game tonight will surely be an eternal story.
So, just like that, the timeout ended and Van Gundy was dumbfounded again.
Because...
Davis actually took Nash, who had a good opening performance, and replaced him with Tracy McGrady! ?
Not...
John...
Are you really going to swing to the end?
On the court, came back from a timeout. The Knicks handed the ball to Ewing with this attack, trying to help the "gorilla" get back to the court.
It's just that it's exactly the same script as the Knicks' first attack.
The only difference this time is that the player who flanked Ewing on the court became Su Feng.
Because the timing of Su Feng's attack is very clever, so Ewing hadn't waited for him to attack and find a way to pass the ball, Su Feng and Daben had already forced him into a dead end.
In desperation, the witty "gorilla" wanted to save the ball by smashing the ball on the defensive player and out of the sideline.
However, just when he smashed the ball at Su Feng, Su Feng, who was already ready to receive the ball, smiled at Ewing's "pass".
There is a saying, no matter where the Raptors can go in the future, Ewing will definitely be entitled to a share of the pie in the future.
Because this "gorilla" is simply an honorable Raptors player.
Su Feng, who intercepted the ball, handed the ball to McGrady.
The latter was because of a little anxiety, and almost made a mistake in the one-stop fast break.
As the saying goes, "Gorilla" can't be rushed.
In the frontcourt of the Knicks, after the dribble was slowed down, recalling the performance of McGrady on the media public day not long ago, this ball once again showed his imagination.
In this offense, Tracy McGrady was similar to the ball he dunked the Raptors in a magic jersey in his previous life. After slowing down and then accelerating, he suddenly threw the ball to the Knicks' rebound.
Immediately afterwards, Ewing, who had retreated madly, just turned his head, and McGrady had already met him and completed his self-deduction.
Ewing: "..."
TNT TV station, Smith is picking his little bald head and doesn't know how to explain it anymore.
Because tonight, the Raptors only used three offenses, and they have detonated the entire North America.
Madison Square Garden, Stern felt that he needed a bottle of quick-acting heart-saving pills.
Three attacks, three deductions.
Carter, Su Feng, McGrady.
On the Raptors bench, although he did not bring his two sons to play away together tonight, at this moment, Dale Curry felt that he had heard Stephen and Seth yelling in his ears to teach them. The dunk scene.
In a daze, Old Curry sighed.
And on the court, watching the three young people who took Ewing to make a bet before the game and completed the bet after the opening three offenses, if you want to ask Jordan who did the most right one in his life What's the matter...
In his opinion, it must have been on January 25, 1999, when he announced that he had joined the Raptors.
"Patrick, did you do something anti-human in your last life?" Jordan thought silently while holding his hands on his hips.
6 to 0.
I don’t know if Ewing is crying tonight.
Anyway, after a long silence, the "Basketball Holy Land" has turned.
On the Knicks bench, Van Gundy didn't understand why New York fans always like to cheer on their opponents.
It’s just that Van Gundy may not believe it...
At this moment, more than New Yorkers are cheering for the Raptors?
Super high-speed rotation defense, terrible pressure on the court, if it is the Knicks in their heyday, then they may be able to deal with calmly.
However, compared with this excellent Raptors, the Knicks, who had to be slashed by the state, were in the first quarter, and soon after the Raptors’ artillery fire... ...
Completely annihilated~IndoMTL.com~ Maybe, if this game is played 10,000 times, the Sukamai trio will not be able to reproduce their opening three dunks.
However, the rest of the game was not so accidental.
31 to 17.
TNT TV, at the end of the first quarter, how can Smith care about objectivity and fairness?
He has a showdown.
He has been a big Raptors fan for fifty years.
"Hey, I said, if you can't like the Raptors after watching such a wonderful performance, then basketball is really not for you!"
Quoted from Su Feng's previous "brilliant rhetoric" Smith, the voice at this moment must be as loud as it is...
……
