The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 258 257. A Beautiful Day for Chinese Fans (5K ask for a monthly ticket)

At the post-match press conference, the small room was packed with all kinds of reporters.

Strictly speaking, for the Magic to beat the Bulls in the first game of the playoffs, this is not a surprise to the media.

Because this is exactly what the media expected.

However, after the game, the main reason why so many reporters still come to the press conference is the strong dialogue between Su Jiu and Derrick Rose.

As a rookie who entered the league in the same year in the 2008 draft, Derrick Rose, as the No. [-] pick, has long attracted the attention of thousands of people.

However, Su Jiu suddenly emerged as an undrafted pick, and even at the end of the season, he was able to compete with Derrick Rose for the best rookie.

This really shocked the jaws of many people.

In addition, the positions of the two are similar, and the communication in private is also relatively extensive. The most important thing is that it seems that there is a will in the dark. In the first round of this year's playoffs, it is the Magic VS Bulls.

Although the suspense in this round of the series is not great, the strong dialogue between Su Jiu and Derek Rose has successfully attracted the attention of many people.

After all, the undrafted and the No. [-] pick compete for the best rookie. This is also a rare anecdote in the history of the NBA for decades.

What's more, the two seem to have been accepting the arrangement of fate in the gears of fate.

It wasn't until this time in the playoffs that more fans began to believe that maybe Su Jiu and Derrick Rose could really become lifelong enemies! !

"Coach Stan, the Magic team also successfully won the first round of the playoffs in this game, but we can also find out during the game that the Magic team did not play very easily."

"So for your opponent Bulls in this round, what do you personally think, and for this round of the series, you personally prefer to be able to solve the opponent within a few games??"

Hearing this question from the reporter, Stan Van Gundy, who was sitting above, subconsciously pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, then cleared his throat, and said slowly:

"Well, first of all, the Bulls are a very tough team. I can see the desire to win in them."

"It is true that the Bulls also caused us a lot of trouble in this game, but fortunately, the team has made a lot of preparations for this playoff battle, so facing this situation, the team also withstood the pressure."

"As for our views on this round of the series, although we are the first to win this game."

"But this round of the series is still very long after all, and we will have many games in the future, so no one can tell what the process will be like."

"But one thing that will never change is that we are ready and ready to face all difficulties."

Next, the reporter asked Stan Van Gundy a few more questions, and both sides also used a more official topic for question and answer.

After all, the suspense in this round of the series is not very great, and the reporters don't want to waste their saliva and provoke some unnecessary arguments.

However, after finishing the interview with Stan Van Gundy, the reporter directly pointed the finger at Su Jiu who was aside.

Because compared to Stan Van Gundy, the reporters will obviously become more looking forward to Su Jiu's personal interview.

"Su, before the start of this game, the media has always commented on you and Derek as lifelong enemies. May I ask if you know about this matter?"

Hearing the reporter's question, Su Jiu just smiled lightly. He looked not only full of confidence, but also quite free and easy.

After all, he has been in the league for a season, and Su Jiu is no longer the ignorant rookie he was when he first entered the league.

Today's Su Jiu is able to freely contract and answer easily when interviewing reporters.

"Well, I heard a little bit, haha."

Reporter: "So in this game, although you helped the team win the game, Derek's personal performance is also quite good."

"So who do you think will perform better in this game, you or Derek?"

If a normal rookie is faced with such a question from the media, he will probably humbly say that the opponent is very good, or that both sides performed relatively well in this game.

But this time the reporter encountered Su Jiu who was already thick-skinned enough to withstand bullets.

In particular, Su Jiu's personal relationship with Derek is also relatively good at the moment, so there is no need to have too many scruples when saying something.

"Ahem, Derek is of course a very good player. His ability to help the team return to the playoffs in his rookie season is the greatest recognition of his personal strength."

"It can be said that Derek's talent is definitely very strong, and his personal strength is also not to be underestimated. Although he is still a little short according to me, he has done a good enough job, haha."

"As for the performance in this game, of course he is better. After all, I promised him that I would give him a little water to save him some face, and then he will treat me to dinner, haha."

Facing Su Jiu's bragging answer, the reporters also felt a little funny, no one would take this matter seriously.

However, regarding Su Jiu's personal face, the media has re-understood it.

After all, which normal person would brag about himself with peace of mind when being interviewed by the media, and even boasting about himself is simply insane...

...............

February 4.

Orlando local fans have been in a state of excitement since the Magic beat the Bulls at home without any risk.

Even before the end of the game the night before, the tickets for the second round of home games were already sold out.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as hard to get a ticket.

And at this moment in the city of Orlando, when you enter here, no matter where you are in the city, you can hear people around you talking about this year's NBA playoffs.

I can even feel the excitement and enthusiasm from the fans watching the game replays on the street.

There are even some Chinese merchants who have settled down in Orlando and have held some activities in their stores.

For example, wearing the Su Jiu No. 44 jersey can enjoy a [-]% discount when eating in a restaurant, and a series of preferential conditions such as a [-]% discount for tickets for watching games at home.

It can be said that Orlando has become a happy city today, and most of the people here are in a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere.

On every basketball court in the wild, you can feel the enthusiasm from each other, even if they may not be particularly familiar with each other before this.

But it is because everyone supports the same city and the same team that these field fans who did not know each other gathered together and even became friends.

There is no other reason, because when they get together, they all have a common topic.

And maybe this is the greatest joy that basketball brings to people...

And on this day, in addition to the results of the Magic vs. Bulls, the results of the other three games were also released.

I have to say that for Chinese fans, yesterday will definitely be a very good day.

Because in the four games yesterday, not only Su Jiu's magic team successfully defeated the Bulls.

At the same time, Yao Ming's Rockets were also on top, successfully defeated the Trail Blazers in the first round of the playoffs, and took the lead in getting a good start in the Western Conference playoffs.

In this game, McGrady also successfully ushered in a comeback, but after the comeback, McGrady felt very bleak.

全场比赛麦迪一共是出场了37分钟，但是个人却只有21投仅7中，其中三分线外8中1，罚球5中3，勉强贡献出了一份18分4篮板以及3助攻的数据。

However, even when Tracy McGrady played abnormally, the Rockets were still able to beat the Trail Blazers away. This is what shocked all the media and fans after the game.

The reason why the Rockets were able to defeat the Trail Blazers in this game is of course the Chinese giant Yao Ming.

面对着有着大帝之称的格雷格奥登，姚明全场比赛一共是出场了39分钟，其中个人19投12中，罚球9中9，高效砍下了33分11篮板以及6次助攻的全面数据。

And while playing a very efficient performance, Yao Ming also gave Emperor Oden six offenders in this game, and abruptly won this peak battle.

In addition to Yao and Mai, the Rockets were able to narrowly win this game by two points, and Artest's personal contribution is also irreplaceable.

全场比赛阿泰斯特在进攻端14投7中，其中三分线外5中2，罚球3中2，贡献出了一份18分7篮板3助攻2抢断以及1次封盖的全能数据。

The most important of these is that Artest's contribution on the defensive end is the greatest in this game compared to his contribution on the offensive end.

Throughout the game, Artest was burdened with the defensive task of defending the Blazers star Brandon Roy.

In the end, Artest also lived up to expectations. While performing well on the offensive end, he also limited Brandon Roy's shooting percentage to 36.7%.

It is precisely because of Huang Mambaroy's abnormal performance that the Blazers' offensive rhythm in the whole game once deviated.

Although the final Blazers have been struggling to catch up with a richer lineup of play.

However, whenever the Blazers wanted to get close to the score, Yao Ming would take advantage of turnaround jump shots again and again to successfully contain the Blazers' counterattack climax.

In the end, it successfully helped the Rockets take the lead in defeating the Trail Blazers with a slight advantage of two points, and tied the total score to 1:0.

In the last two games of the day, the Nuggets beat the Hornets 103:97, and the Eagles beat the Heat 107:106.

Among them, in the Nuggets' victory over the Hornets, Anthony contributed 28 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in the game.

Even Chris Paul of the Hornets also contributed high-energy data of 23 points and 14 assists.

However, when facing the multi-point blooming Nuggets, the away Hornets can only face defeat in the first game of the first round of the playoffs.

And the last game, the Eagles' victory over the Heat, was definitely the most intense of the four games in the first round.

The two teams have always been ahead of each other throughout the game, and the number of draws alone was as high as 34 times.

With 2.4 seconds left before the end of the game, with Flash Wade's breakthrough layup, the Heat also led the Hawks by one point 106:105.

But just after the timeout, the most powerful moment of the game was also directly staged.

Eagle King Joe Johnson faced Michael Beasley's personal defense after receiving his teammate's serve, and Johnson used a very difficult drift to kill the game directly at the buzzer.

In the whole game, Joe Johnson contributed a total of 31 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. Even Wade of the Heat exploded with 41 points in a single game.

But under Joe Johnson's mid-range lore, Wade's 41 points can only be reduced to a complete empty cut! !

…………

While the outside world is currently talking about these games, the other four games of this round will also be staged on this day.

But all of this has nothing to do with the Magic.

Because at this moment, the Magic team is using this rare time to continue to adjust their tactics. All the players are adjusting in the training hall, and they don't have the mind to pay attention to these things outside.

Since the NBA's playoff rules are that after a game is played, there will be a day's rest in the middle, and then the second game will continue the next day.

Finally, by analogy, until one of the parties wins four games, the promotion will be successfully completed.

So this is why in the first round of the playoffs, the teams with a crushing advantage want to make a quick decision, and it is best to solve the opponent in four games.

Because once the opponent can be resolved within four games, this means that the team can get more rest time in the next period of time.

And during this period, the coaching staff and players can conduct more research and running-in, so as to be able to tactically target the opponents in the next round.

Due to the battle mechanism of the playoffs, the second game will also be played in the Orlando Arena of the Magic.

For the Magic, this will be relatively good news, because once the Magic can successfully win the game, they will fly to Chicago with a 2:0 overall score advantage.

At least psychologically, this advantage can definitely make players more relaxed on the court and play more freely.

"Why have we been frowning? The current situation is quite favorable for us, and if nothing happens, we do have a great possibility to solve the Bulls within four games."

"So what are you worrying about at this moment, hehe, you guy is really unpredictable."

Looking at Stan Van Gundy, who has been frowning and watching the players training on the court, assistant coach Mundy feels a little helpless.

Although the usual Stan Van Gundy has always been serious and cautious, but at this moment in the playoffs, if the head coach behaves too seriously, it may bring a certain degree of tension to the players' psychology.

So from this point, the coaching philosophy of Mondy and Van Gundy is very different.

Among them, Mundy prefers pre-match decompression and a relaxed training atmosphere, while Stan Van Gundy tends to be focused and serious, requiring players to keep this killing spirit as much as possible.

Even if these two concepts can't be said to be right or wrong, the situation of the Magic team can be described as good at the moment.

So for Stan Van Gundy's nerves that have been tense at the moment, Monty also feels a little helpless.

"In short, there is no big mistake in being careful. Although judging from the current situation, we are definitely able to advance to the next round of the competition, but before the competition is completely over, we still have to take it seriously."

After hearing Stan Van Gundy's words, assistant coach Mundy just shook his head slightly and didn't say anything.

After all, Stan Van Gundy is the head coach of this team. Although the relationship between the two off the court is not bad, the person who really has the right to speak in the team is Stan Van Gundy.

As an assistant coach, Mundy is loved by players no matter how much he has.

He can only put forward some more pertinent suggestions to try to change some of Stan Van Gundy's decisions.

"By the way, I think the Bulls are likely to make changes in the next game. Pooh is not a rigid person. Although I am not particularly familiar with him, I don't think he will sit still."

"I just can't figure it out, I can't figure out what changes he will make, hey, it's really a headache, this damn playoffs."

After a moment of contemplation, Stan Van Gundy also sat down on the rest stool beside him, his head lowered, looking puzzled.

"Hehe, I think the chances of sending Ben (Gordon) to the second team will be higher, because after all, this is his favorite routine in the regular season before."

"Although this may greatly weaken the team's offensive firepower, it has been proved that even if they send the current starting lineup, they cannot compete with us, so I think Pooh may make a breakthrough at this point."

"But to be honest, no matter how the other party adjusts, it's not that we have no way to deal with it, so you are really too anxious at this moment."

"I think you should relax properly, otherwise it will not be a good thing for the next schedule."

　More than [-] words are updated today, and there will be a chapter later.
