I really just want to strike

There is no way, young teams tend to swell, even if Su Feng has been doing ideological work, it cannot be avoided.

Especially after winning the championship last year, and after creating the best record in NBA history this year, it is impossible for this young Raptors not to swell.

"Wake up, this is the Eastern Conference semifinals!"

In the second half of the game, before the game started, Su Feng yelled at his teammates.

……

Chapter 381 Raptors, Super Evolution!

U1S1...

The adjective "cheap skin" (Note ①), in Su Feng's opinion, is really suitable to describe the current Raptors.

Because after I lowered my voice, the spirit of this group of people immediately changed...

Discussion: The importance of doing ideological work well for a team to maintain combat effectiveness.

In the third quarter, the Raptors, who were awakened by the Pistons, gradually began to take the initiative in this G1 battle.

Of course, among them, there are also factors in the Pistons' physical problems.

After all, the day before yesterday he had just finished a life-and-death battle with the Heat, and today he ran a full half with the Raptors at full speed. Even if everyone on the Pistons team looks like a god tonight, it is only natural for them to have poor waist strength.

On the court, in the third quarter, under the leadership of Su Feng, the Raptors, who started from defense, pulled the difference between the two teams to double digits through continuous defensive counterattacks.

At this time, TNT TV station, Smith also said with emotion: "Although the Pistons played a pretty good first half tonight, but against a top team like the Raptors, even if you only make one mistake, that mistake is very important." It could be fatal."

We all know that weak teams beat strong teams, and if weak teams can't reduce their turnovers, then strong teams will continue to snowball through their higher floor.

And tonight, with the Raptors obviously inferior in physical fitness, facing the Raptors' unabated defense, how difficult is it for the Pistons to achieve zero turnovers?

However, when the Raptors fans at the scene and in front of the TV were all feeling "we are too strong", the scene that happened in the second half of the third quarter of this game made Su Feng vigilant again stand up.

Because of the route center arena, after noticing that the team's situation was over tonight, Carlisle made a very wise decision in Su Feng's opinion.

That is:

"Tactical retreat".

At the end of the third quarter of this G1 game, Carlisle took the initiative to replace the main players such as Hill and Hughes, leaving only Stackhouse on the court.

As a result, when Stackhouse failed to replicate his magical touch in the second quarter, after three quarters, the Raptors' lead quickly expanded to 19 points.

In the last quarter of the game, the Pistons, which started with an all-tool lineup, were hit by the Raptors in a 9-0 spurt at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

"It doesn't look like the Pistons are going to bet any more on this Game 1.

After removing all the main players of the team, coach Rick Carlisle chose to give up this G1 battle. "TNT TV station, Smith said.

"Although we often say that in a best-of-seven series, one or two losses is not a big deal.

But isn't it a pity to give up this round of G1 battle like this? "On the side, Derek echoed.

I have to say that under the premise that the Pistons players are in good condition tonight, it can be seen that the physical fitness of the Pistons players is not enough to compete with the Raptors who have entered the serious mode...

From Su Feng's point of view, Rick Carlisle is not an ordinary person.

In Su Feng's previous life, when many fans reviewed Nowitzki's "single-core championship" year, they often only saw Nowitzki's willpower like steel and his reverse growth state.

But I forgot that behind Nowitzki, Carlisle, who laid a net for James and Wade cloth.

If you know enough about the history of the Mavericks team, then you know what kind of mess Johnson left for Carlisle.

In the bastard league of the NBA, although there are many bastard coaches, there will also be excellent coaches like Carlisle.

And if you follow Smith's commentary just now, in Su Feng's eyes, the Pistons did not give up their bets on this G1 game.

They just bet their chips on the next series.

As for this point, in the fourth quarter, when the cameras showed the pictures of the Pistons players, Su Feng discovered the clue.

Because it is different from the general team that will be more or less disappointed after losing...

In the fourth quarter of the game, when Carlisle removed Stackhouse, the only main player, the Pistons players, led by Hill, and even their water dispenser tools did not show any obvious loss in expression.

On the contrary, from the micro expressions of the Piston players at that time, what Su Feng read was an emotion called "We seem to be able to really fight this Raptors".

"Sure enough, it's going to be a tough series."

In the final quarter of the game, Su Feng, who had returned to the bench to rest, looked at tonight's scoreboard and said silently.

……

In the end, relying on their excellent performance in the second half of the game, the Raptors successfully reaped their good start in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

The final score of the game was 99-118.

全场比赛，苏枫21投11中，其中三分球6投3中，罚球8罚7中，砍下了猛龙最高的32分、8个篮板、3次助攻、2次抢断以及1次盖帽。

Carter scored 17 points in the second half, contributing the team's second-highest 24 points and five rebounds.

Big Ben grabbed 18 rebounds, including 9 offensive rebounds.

For the Pistons, Hill contributed 24 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

Stackhouse made 13 of 6 three-pointers, plus free throws and two points, and scored a Pistons-high 27 points.

After the game, in an interview, Su Feng was asked the most by reporters about the ownership of the major NBA awards for the 9900 season, which will be announced in a few days.

As for this, even though he was still thinking about how to steadily win the Eastern Conference semifinals, Su Feng did not forget to stimulate the shark that was swimming in the sewers of Los Angeles.

"I've said it many times before, I don't care who the MVP goes to.

Because right now, for me and my team, the championship is our only pursuit.

In my opinion, at a time like this, it would be foolish to go to the trouble of getting people to vote for me. "In an interview, Su Feng said so.

And in the Raptors locker room, listening to Su Feng's answer, if the reporters remember correctly, a day ago, that is, last night, in Los Angeles, there seemed to be a man named O'Neill howling to let the experts Give him the ticket...

hiss----!

Gangzhen, it's really not that the reporters wanted to lead the rhythm, but after interviewing Su Feng, they found that Su Feng could lead the rhythm better than them!

Because of Su Feng's speech just now, you said he was not attacking O'Neill?

If this is said, who will believe it?

"Su...do you really not need us to pass you more balls during the game?"

In the locker room, after the interview in the locker room, looking at Su Feng who was calm and about to rub his back with Da Ben, Carter asked curiously.

In Carter's view, now is the critical moment to decide who belongs to the MVP of the regular season, so he originally thought that Su Feng would drag everyone to accompany him to the sewer like in the regular season...

However......

As he got along with Su Feng longer and longer, Carter found that he really couldn't understand the rabbit in front of him more and more.

"Vince, how many times have I told you that I am a team player." Patting Carter on the shoulder, Su Feng said solemnly.

Carter: "..."

In fact, from Su Feng's point of view, Carter's worries about him are completely unnecessary.

Because with the Raptors already playing 74 wins and 8 losses, Su Feng knew very well that Stern would never let the regular season MVP fall by others.

Moreover, it's 2000, so no one really thinks that their performance in the first round of this year's playoffs was terrible, right?

Are you kidding around the world, with the intensity of the Knicks' game that only takes a few minutes before surrendering, even if you replace Su Feng with Westbrook, that's...

Emmmmm...

Let's change the subject!

According to the schedule, the G2 series between the Raptors and the Pistons will start on the 8th.

Compared to the Raptors who won the G1 game with ease and waiting for work, Su Feng believes that the prepared Pistons will definitely cause more trouble for the Raptors...

……

On the 8th, at the Airline Center Arena, after the mutual testing in the G1 game, the Raptors fell into a hard fight as soon as the G2 game came up.

Judging from the lineups of the two teams, the Raptors are definitely the more dominant side, but as we all know, a basketball game is not a sport in which the strength of the lineup alone can determine the outcome of the game.

Otherwise, how many championships will the Knicks win with the All-Star starter?

Since the Pistons can match up with the Raptors in every position, coupled with Carlisle's highly targeted tactics, many of the Raptors' advantages cannot be fully utilized when facing the Pistons.

Such as the speed and rotation of the Raptors.

With the small vs. small Pistons, after adapting to the G1 game, in the first quarter of the game, they successfully and effectively restricted the Raptors' defensive counterattack by quickly retreating and man-to-man.

Although the two flanks of the Raptors have strong singles ability, Carlisle successfully passed a simple math problem to relieve the pressure of the Pistons when dealing with the Raptors' singles.

That is, no matter how efficient Su Feng and Carter are, the Raptors can only score by one of them every round.

In other words, as long as the Pistons can play their offense well and ensure that they can keep up with the Raptors' scoring rhythm when Su Feng and Carter feel like they are running wild, then they will be able to play back and forth with the Raptors.

In Su Feng's previous life, when many fans saw the lineup of the four-star warriors, they thought that the warriors should beat their opponents by 20 or 30 points in each game, and then win the championship without losing a game.

But in fact, if Cole still insists on letting Durant play singles all the time in the future round of the fierce battle, and fails to find a way to return the ball to Curry, and Paul is not injured, can the Warriors take the lead? After the mosaic, it is really unknown.

To put it bluntly, just looking at the lineup, that Warriors team can hammer mosaics in almost every aspect.

But because there is only one basketball, if the Warriors can't play the linkage between the stars, then all they can rely on is Durant's singles upper limit.

And once Durant's singles can't be stabilized at a certain time point, then they can easily be pushed back by Mosaic.

This is also the case in the first quarter of the game between the Pistons and the Raptors.

In the playoffs, in order to avoid mistakes, it is common sense to give the ball to the star as much as possible.

Therefore, rather than saying that the Raptors are actively pursuing singles tactics to find stars, it is better to say that since the G1 game, they have fallen into the trap of a one-V-one-man battle prepared for them by Carlisle.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, it doesn't matter if Davis gets stuck.

Because the real coach of the Raptors successfully found inspiration through an "MVP mascot" sitting on the sidelines of the Raptors when he returned to the bench to rest after the first quarter.

At that time, I saw Stephen Curry waving his little fist and kept complaining to his younger brother Seth Curry that the Raptors had become a team that would only give the ball to "Uncle Melon".

However, it was said that Su Feng, who originally wanted to take advantage of Dell Curry's inattention to go back and clean up this damn brat, was inspired by Stephen Curry and saw the key to correctly unlocking this round of the series.

In the second quarter of the game, at the Airline Center Arena, when the Raptors fans were extremely looking forward to Su Feng being able to win the real-man battle between him and Hill, so as to help the team expand its lead... ..

The Raptors' evolution is here.

Unlike previous games, Da Ben, who was supposed to be on the bench with Su Feng in the second quarter, was put on the bench by Davis.

And it was Jermaine O'Neal who replaced him in the C position.

In addition, Su Feng's position in the second quarter was also moved to the power forward.

As for the small forward position, it is held by Tracy McGrady.

The shooting guard and point guard are old Curry and Nash respectively.

Tonight, after the first quarter of the two teams, many experts in North America believe that the Raptors should find a way to play the same defense as they did in the second half of the G1 game.

After all, defensive counterattack is the magic weapon that this Raptors has relied on for the past two years.

Therefore, whether it was discussing with his Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Cubs, or thinking about how the Raptors should change their formation to avoid being led by the Pistons, Davis never considered abandoning the big book.

And similarly, due to the fact that he has been playing a bit high lately, Su Feng has not thought about it.

However, Curry's words and the thinking of the future warriors until the end successfully inspired Su Feng.

That is......

Why should we focus on thinking like that stupid Van Gundy?

Why, don't we come to make up for our advantages from another aspect?

In this round of the series, because the Pistons' lineup is enough to keep up with the speed of the Raptors, after they adopted the strategy of emptying the big book, they are one of the few in this league that can force the Raptors to use singles to gouge them. team.

However, now, after the Raptors abandoned Big Ben, the situation is completely different.

Perhaps, such a Raptor will drop a lot in defense.

However, please don't doubt the offensive ability of this Raptors under the leadership of Steve Nash.

As soon as the game started in the second quarter, Hill, who persisted even when Su Feng didn't stop, made a jump layup for the Pistons. After turning around, Jermaine O'Neal passed a high pick-and-roll. The Raptors hit a three-pointer.

Immediately afterwards, Stackhouse missed a jumper, and the Pistons retreated quickly.

And at the moment when the Pistons just set up their defensive formation, Nash used an imaginative pass to directly penetrate the entire defensive line of the Pistons.

In the penalty area, McGrady, who received a pass from Nash, easily made a rebound and hit a layup.
