Silently Writing
Chapter 636 An Incredibly Bright Path to Defending the Title!
Speaking of it, including this year, this is already Su Feng's tenth time leading a team to the playoffs.
But as of now...
Su Feng's single-season playoff appearances have never exceeded 20.
Some careful fans on the internet have even discovered that Su Feng's personal playoff appearance record (18 games) was set in the 00/01 season.
And if you're not a casual fan, you should know that Su Feng and the Raptors fell in the Eastern Conference Finals that season.
In response, some fans joked on the forum, "Told you to give everyone brooms, see? Now you've delayed yourself from creating new scoring records in the playoffs, right?"
"Su is really at a disadvantage because, compared to his successors, when he first entered the league, the NBA playoff first round was only best-of-five."
"Upstairs, what's the big deal about best-of-five? You don't think the team Su is on would have a chance to play a full five games, do you?"
"Hey, don't say that, it actually happened. Back then, during Larry Brown's tenure, didn't the 76ers play five games against the Hawks in the first round of the 97/98 season?"
"Ten years of war.
Unknowingly, Su Feng has already left a string of records in the NBA that will make future generations daunted.
The train of time rushes by. 28-year-old Su Feng is there, his affectionate gaze looking back at the past, at his 18-year-old self.
And the gradually receding ruts, although silently taking away the hustle and bustle of four cities, guide the people who follow along the way to pursue that lost time.
It is said that one cannot be young again, but for Su Feng, he will always be that boy.
Like jade are the gentlemen on the road, unparalleled is the king in the world.
There will never be another Su Feng in this world, and there is only this one Su Feng in our lives."
On May 1st, as the Heat successfully advanced to this year's Eastern Conference Semifinals, Wang Tao, a famous sports host of CCTV, emotionally commented on Su Feng in the "Basketball Park" program that night.
"What the hell? Isn't Wang Tao a football commentator?
And this script...
Does that mean the copywriting team of 'World Football' has already jumped ship to basketball?"
Miami. After Su Feng was reminded by Su Weiguo to search for this video online...
For a time, Su Feng's heart was like ten thousand alpacas galloping past.
Because in this life...
If Chinese football fans never see the national team enter the World Cup again, then he, Su Feng, will have to bear historical responsibility!
In the past two years, due to the men's basketball team winning consecutive championships in the World Championships and the Olympics...
In addition, because the national football team failed to qualify for the German World Cup due to miscalculating the number of goals, a large number of football fans have switched to basketball, so the Rabbit family can be said to have entered a football desert ahead of schedule.
But...
The current crazy basketball enthusiasm in China has its advantages and disadvantages.
The good thing is that, in this good atmosphere, it may not be possible for one or two basketball geniuses that Su Feng doesn't remember to appear in the future.
As for the bad thing...
Based on the rationality of domestic sports enthusiasts during this period...
In case the Chinese men's basketball team crashes at the doorstep of Beijing in '08...
At that time, even if he were sucking on Kobe's toes, Su Feng could imagine what the scene in China would be like.
In his previous life, when he retired, many old female volleyball players mentioned that after losing the '08 Olympic Games, they didn't even dare to leave their homes for a long time.
It wasn't until the 2016 Rio Olympics, when the glory was recast by their juniors, that more and more rational fans of women's volleyball team woke up.
Holy crap, so the Chinese women's volleyball team played so well at the '04 Olympics?
In fact, in competitive sports, victory and defeat are common occurrences in military affairs.
However, before the Rabbits have the confidence to engage the Eagles from a position of strength, Su Feng is very clear...
At present, the only path left for this men's basketball team...
Is to win the championship in Beijing.
Therefore, in May, after Britney left Miami for her tour, Su Feng also started his "baby-sitting mode" in advance.
Uh, don't misunderstand.
With a well-behaved child like Xiao Tianliang, even if Su Feng's diaper-changing skills are comparable to Carter on the court, Xiao Tianliang won't hang up anytime soon.
Um...
This time, Su Feng is mainly taking care of Sun Yue and Wang Shipeng, who were jokingly called "Auspicious Three Treasures" by Zhang Bin... as well as another young talent from Guangdong Hongyuan team, Chen Jianghua. (Guangdong team: ?)
Because the men's basketball team will still be training in Las Vegas this summer, taking advantage of the fact that he has plenty of time in this year's playoffs, Su Feng also asked Zhang Bin to send these three guys to Miami in advance for him to train himself.
Although it's a bit of a disservice to Wang Shipeng and Chen Jianghua to be on par with Sun Yue...
But on this day, after learning about Wang Shipeng and Chen Jianghua's recent situation, Su Feng finally understood why these three guys were called "Auspicious Three Treasures" by Zhang Bin.
"What? You think you're diligent just by practicing 200 three-pointers a day?" Miami. Looking at Sun Yue, Su Feng said with a face of despair.
In Su Feng's original timeline, when he was a fan, he had read the most ridiculous report that Sun Yue had to practice 200 three-pointers every day, so the report kept praising Sun Yue as the most hardworking player in the men's basketball team.
But...
For professional basketball players...
Is practicing 200 three-pointers a day really considered hardworking?
Not to mention anything else, that guy Kobe has to duAng a thousand times every day before he's willing to rest!
Therefore, 200 three-pointers...
"Next, you have to practice 1500 three-pointers every day.
Don't act like a little girl.
Anyway, everything is up to me here.
If you want to beg grandpa and grandma, then I'll say the ugly things first...
In the next few years, the door of the national team will not be open to you again." On this day, after issuing a death order to Mansias, Frazier and others, Su Feng turned to Sun Yue and said.
And hearing that, Sun Yue was immediately anxious!
Because he could clearly feel that Brother Feng was serious this time!
"No, I said Da Peng...
As a shooter who has participated in the CBA finals, why don't you dare to shoot when you have the opportunity?" After solving Sun Yue, when tutoring Wang Shipeng, Su Feng also discovered a fact that made him extremely depressed...
That is, before the buzzer-beater against Slovenia...
Wang Shipeng's confidence on the court was obviously another person.
However, based on the current strength of this men's basketball team...
Besides the United States, Greece, and Spain...
How many opponents can provide Wang Shipeng with buzzer-beater opportunities for him to gain confidence?
Don't look at how Chinese fans often complain about Zhu Ba and Wang Qi during this period...
But after Hu Weidong and others quit the national team, Wang Shipeng will be the slightly reliable shooter that Su Feng can count on in the next few years.
Therefore, compared to Sun Yue...
In Su Feng's view, how to help Wang Shipeng build up his confidence is probably the top priority.
As for Chen Jianghua...
To be honest.
This unlucky kid's first step is like...
Even Su Feng thinks it's like the wind.
It's just that when this kid goes out...
Su Feng always feels like he forgot to install the passing key.
At the '08 Olympics, even the star-studded American men's basketball team was startled by Chen Jianghua's breakthrough.
But compared to Lu Yuanwai of the same period...
Chen Jianghua's shortcomings in model and vision mean that he can only be used as a surprise soldier.
Although in Su Feng's original timeline, old starting point novels always like to fantasize about Chen Jianghua entering the NBA...
But to be honest...
Based on Su Feng's many years of experience in judging people...
For Chen Jianghua, no matter in his previous life or this life, the summary is two words:
No chance.
In fact, in Su Feng's view, even Sun Yue, who doesn't slack off, can only be a rotational player in the NBA at most.
Because there are far more supermen in the NBA than you think.
In this life, besides himself and Yao Ming, putting aside Yi Jianlian, whose career has just begun, even Lao Hu, who is doing the best, has not become a star player in the NBA as people fantasize.
Because the gap between fantasy and reality is so big.
Sun Yue, the model is certainly good.
But in the NBA, there are many people with better models than him.
And Chen Jianghua, besides the first step...
Even if he can solve his passing and injury problems in the future...
With that small model of his...
Who can he defend against in the NBA?
In Su Feng's previous life, even Yi Jianlian, who returned to the NBA after many years, could get a score of more than 70 in 2k.
But playing in the NBA is never about having an outstanding ability in one area.
It's about your comprehensive ability, which must reach a certain level at least.
Except for players like Nash and Iverson who take extreme approaches to a certain level...
Even the most inconspicuous water dispenser managers in the NBA can be used as Jordans in lower-level leagues.
Therefore, in the eyes of Su Feng, this training master...
Instead of blindly drawing cakes for young people, it is better to point out their problems as soon as possible so that they can grow into usable talents for the future of the Chinese men's basketball team as soon as possible.
After all, with Yao Ming assisting...
Compared to Pippen, Su Feng currently needs Steve Kerr and Dennis Rodman more.
In short...
Even if he has to risk his life in this life, Su Feng has to keep that damn gold medal at home.
This has nothing to do with how much Su Feng loves Chinese basketball...
It's purely because as a leader, the greater his ability, the greater his responsibility.
And a leader who only wants to escape responsibility...
How can he be called a leader?
…
Miami, just as Su Feng started the "baby-sitting" mode, this year's first round of the playoffs was also a collision of Mars and Earth.
Although the series between the Heat and the Raptors ended early, as Su Feng expected, in this era that has gone berserk, without a good ranking, every game is a fierce battle.
In the East, Dwyane Wade, the jowls hero, really lives up to his name as Feng Huang's successor.
After losing two games in Boston, Dwyane Wade, relying on the sudden growth of body hair after returning to Atlanta, scored 40+ back-to-back, helping the Hawks rewrite the situation of this series in one fell swoop.
In Su Feng's previous life, it was not a sensational thing that Stern began to tilt resources to support the 03 generation during this period.
Of course, because Stern's support for people will not be as unscrupulous as someone else, so this time, you can only say that Wade himself seized the opportunity.
Take a certain guy who won two consecutive MVPs in the future but can only sit on the bench to watch the game at critical moments...
Only a little cutie who is naive to a certain extent would think that the league did not give him superstar treatment.
However, the Celtics are the Celtics after all.
In the fifth game, after returning to Boston, Duncan, who no longer slacked off, finally showed 50% of his strength when playing against Su Feng.
And so far, the last two games of this series have completely lost suspense.
In the case of 2-2, Stern could not help Wade in the following games.
On the other side, in the series with the Wizards, the 76ers were dragged into one more game because of Arenas' outburst in the fourth game.
But similar to the series between the Celtics and the Hawks...
In the fifth game, after Yao Ming and Iverson became slightly serious, there was no chance for the Wizards.
"Interesting...
Neither the Celtics nor the 76ers wanted to waste too much energy in the first round.
But as a result, one of these two teams played two more games, and the other played one more game.
So...
These playoffs, every round must be treated as the finals!" On this day, after watching the sixth game between the Celtics and the Hawks, Su Feng couldn't help thinking with emotion.
However...
At this moment, it was Duncan and Yao Ming and others who did not know what Su Feng was thinking in his heart...
Otherwise, they would definitely run to Miami to ask Su Feng...
If we had your physical strength...
Do you think we still need to stay healthy and slack off?
And the last round of the first round of the Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers and the Pistons, did not decide the winner until the seventh game.
In this series, Little Zhan Zhan also received care from Su Feng's good brother.
However, the main reason why the Pistons were dragged to the seventh game was because after Rasheed Wallace left, Randolph had not completely transformed into the fat man with seven moles on the soles of his feet in Su Feng's memory.
Inside, facing Bosh, who was nicknamed Cleveland Garnett, Randolph actually played a game of retreat while fighting with Bosh.
And in this way...
Wouldn't the Cavaliers be very happy?
In addition, in this series, Korver also lived up to his worth.
Outside, whenever Little Zhan Zhan was besieged by the Pistons, this sharpshooter, whose confidence had already been established because of winning the championship with Su Feng, became Little Zhan Zhan's most reliable helper besides Joe Johnson.
In the second half of the season, Silas, who copied Su Feng's method of using James at the All-Star Weekend, has now finally found the correct way to open this Cavaliers team.
On the court, now as long as Little Zhan Zhan decides to take his first step, there will definitely be four shooters standing on the outside of the Cavaliers.
And originally, this series...
The Pistons did have the upper hand.
But Rivers' attribute of being a flop in key games...
Even John Davis can't save it.
In the sixth game, when leading the Cavaliers by as many as 18 points in the second half, Rivers gave a passionate speech on the sidelines.
As a result...
The Pistons players, who felt unconsciously pressured, were like being poisoned in the following games, and they couldn't score no matter how they shot.
And at the last moment, Little Zhan Zhan also hit his first buzzer-beater in the playoffs of his personal career.
At a position two meters away from the three-point line, Little Zhan Zhan, who posed in a posture of riding a horse and shooting arrows, proved on this night that he was the chosen son of heaven.
And after this battle...
The balance of this series has completely tilted towards the Cavaliers.
Because before the sixth game between the two sides started, Randolph perfectly reproduced the classic case of Little O'Neal slipping and falling while taking a bath.
No way.
In the case that Randolph was injured in his ankle and missed the tie-breaker between the two sides, the Pistons' inside line could not stop Big Z, Bosh, Little Zhan Zhan and others by relying on Big Ben alone.
In the seventh game, James made 9 of 19 shots from the field, including 2 of 5 three-pointers, and 15 of 20 free throws. While scoring 35 points for the Cavaliers, he also grabbed 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals.
"May 8, 2006, 'Feng Huang's successor' LeBron James finally broke through the first round with his team. Please be informed!"
And on this night, after secretly sending text messages to Wade, Paul, and Anthony, who were all eliminated in the first round this year, James also felt very comfortable.
In addition, after the seventh game, the scene of James and Curry embracing each other deeply on the court is destined to become a classic in the future.
"You did it! You did it! LeBron!
I said it a long time ago, you have this strength! Wuwu!" At the Auburn Hills Palace, leaning in the arms of His Majesty, Stephen Curry said with tears in his eyes.
And hearing that, at this moment...
Little Zhan Zhan, who wished to get the qualification to fight Feng Huang, was also filled with emotion.
Cough, the story about the Cavaliers will be told later.
In the West, after the Jazz and the Mavericks eliminated the Nuggets and the Trail Blazers with a score of 4-0 respectively without any waves, the main highlights of this year's Western Conference playoffs were focused on the two series between the Grizzlies and the Suns, and the Warriors against the Lakers.
In Su Feng's previous life, as old friends who participated in the election together in '96, Kobe hated Nash so much.
Because even in the same historical period in Su Feng's memory...
Kobe tormented Nash enough at that time.
In the game, in addition to leaving a famous scene of dunking over Nash, in the 05/06 season, Kobe, who led the Lakers, whose overall strength was far inferior to the current one, even forced the Suns into a tie-breaker.
And in the 06/07 season, although the Suns defeated the Lakers in only 5 games, except for the G2 battle between the two sides, the Suns did not win easily in the other 4 games.
Of course, the most amazing thing...
That has to be when Nash and Kobe team up in the future.
How could Nash have imagined that he would also have a day to be a "dribbling tool man"?
In the West, the Warriors, who were unexpectedly dragged into a tie-breaker by the Lakers, finally survived the danger by relying on the outstanding performance of the "Smana" three in the tie-breaker.
And Kobe, although he experienced another disappointing year...
But in this year's playoffs, he also played a perfect performance of averaging 40+ points per game.
It's just...
The ridicule from Su Feng...
There is definitely no escaping.
Of course, as Su Feng's best brother in this league, how could Kobe still have his phone on at this time?
On the other side, McGrady, who was recuperating in the regular season and going all out in the playoffs, once again ushered in a moment of lying down and winning.
In the series with the Grizzlies, because of a back injury, McGrady ended all his games this season in advance.
But facing the Suns after McGrady's injury...
Van Gundy still failed to solve the world problem that has been plaguing the Grizzlies.
That is, except for facing the Heat...
Their offense is always so stiff.
Miami, after watching this series between the Grizzlies and the Suns, in Su Feng's view, it is better to scold Van Gundy for holding Gasol and Davis, such good offensive players, and only knowing how to play positional warfare with the Suns.
Jeff!
Hurry up and find a job in an electronics factory!
Didn't you find out that you are really not suitable to be a head coach?
In the end, after the Suns and the Warriors advanced on the same night, all four matchups in the Eastern and Western Conference semifinals this year were released.
In the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Heat will face a challenge from the Cleveland Cavaliers.
And the Celtics will continue to love and kill each other with the 76ers.
In the Western Conference, the Warriors, who played in the tie-breaker in the first round, will compete with the Suns.
I just don't know...
When D'Antoni faces this lineup that he was supposed to lead, can he still have a flash of inspiration.
And the last round of the semifinals will be played by the Mavericks against the Jazz.
One of these two teams is an unstoppable young guard, and the other is a cosmic team built with a super luxury tax...
Not boasting, not belittling...
Su Feng believed that the fight at that time would be very exciting...
And tragic.
On this day, looking at the Heat's incredibly bright road to defending the title this year...
Su Feng felt that even God was helping him this year.
And in the Eastern Conference semifinals, facing the menacing Cleveland Cavaliers...
Before the fans of Little Zhan Zhan were ready to face the team where Feng Huang was in the playoffs...
On May 18, the Miami Heat became the first team to advance to the conference finals this year.
4 to 0.
There is no suspense.
At the same time, there is no process worth writing about.
The Heat eliminated the Cavaliers.
And compared to the series itself...
After the NBA officially revised the award date this year...
People are more concerned about...
On the upcoming May 20...
Can Su Feng become the NBA's regular season MVP for the fourth consecutive time!
…
