Silently Writing

Chapter 722 "Rietian" Returns, Regular Season Ends!

"This is too crazy! Too crazy! Too crazy!"

In March, just as Su Feng and Nash were going head-to-head, leading the Lakers and Warriors respectively in the battle for the fourth seed in the Western Conference...

Who was it that, in Raleigh, North Carolina, left LeBron James, a man hailed as a rising star, speechless afterward?

And who was it that, on this night, made Vince Carter, who was also in attendance, point excitedly and shout to those around him, "That's Dell Curry's kid!

Remember his name!

One day, he'll surprise you all!"

Surprise?

Well...

In fact, as early as March 2008, the American public was already amazed by what Stephen Curry did on this night.

Although in the future, many "cloud Curry fans" would think of Curry as an unknown player before entering the league, who rose to become a superstar through his own efforts...

But frankly speaking, before the original 2009 NBA Draft, Stephen Curry's popularity in the United States was, if not a household name, at least widely known.

Because in the previous year's NCAA March Madness...

This kid, like a protagonist in a manga, together with his Davidson Wildcats, wrote a classic story that American basketball called the "Davidson Fairy Tale."

As in Su Feng's memory, in this year's NCAA March Madness tournament, Curry and his Wildcats were fortunate enough to draw Gonzaga University.

—An ordinary seventh seed.

And before the game started, the general view of the Wildcats was...

Unless a miracle happened, Curry was destined to go home with his Wildcats.

Because as long as you're a normal person with normal judgment, you wouldn't favor a team comparable to the Chinese national soccer team drawing France in this round.

But since on the soccer field, the Chinese national team actually beat France 1-0...

Then on the basketball court...

Who says the Wildcats can't bite the seventh seed?

Only...

In this game, perhaps intimidated by the terrifying momentum of the Gonzaga cheerleaders from the start, the Davidson Wildcats were once as much as 20 points behind Gonzaga in the first half.

As everyone knows, in the NCAA format, being 20 points behind is almost equivalent to being sentenced to death.

Because college players' mental fortitude can't compare to NBA players.

Plus, in each NCAA possession, the offensive team has 30 seconds...

So at halftime, the Wildcats fans who had traveled 156 miles had only one thought left...

That was to cherish the last half of the Davidson Wildcats in NCAA March Madness.

However, at this moment, where could God, who was sitting at home wondering whether to give Stephen Curry a heavenly switch, have imagined...

That this kid would blow up his paradise with one word.

In the second half, in Raleigh, the "City of Oaks," the Wildcats officially began their comeback.

And in the face of Stephen Curry's miraculous touch, the Gonzaga players panicked for a while.

On the scene, as Curry hit his eighth three-pointer of the game, the commentators on the sidelines were already associating his name with countless great NBA stars!

In the end, 82-76, Gonzaga, the seventh seed who had been singing and dancing in the first half, was sent home by Curry.

And Stephen Curry, who scored 40 points on 14-of-22 shooting, also won countless fans with this battle.

But if the Davidson Wildcats' story had stopped there, how could Curry have stolen the spotlight that originally belonged to his Uncle Su Feng?

Second round.

The Wildcats welcomed one of the favorites to win the NCAA championship this year, the second seed...

—The unremarkable Georgetown.

In competitive sports, we often call a miraculous comeback a miracle.

But what if it's two comebacks in a row?

Still in Raleigh, North Carolina...

This time, because the Cavaliers were preparing for their game against the Celtics, James couldn't go to the arena to watch.

But in the Cavaliers' home locker room...

James witnessed Curry's awesome performance.

On the court, under the siege of Georgetown University players, Stephen Curry played poorly in the first half, scoring only 5 points.

And the Wildcats were also 17 points behind Georgetown University in the first half.

However, just as Georgetown University's fans thought victory was in sight...

That "baby-faced assassin" who didn't even blink an eye used one incredible shot after another...

To break through their psychological defenses!

In the end, relying on the 25 points Curry scored in the second half, the Wildcats advanced after two consecutive comebacks!

And for this kind of consecutive miracle...

In the always chuunibyou America...

For a time, a large number of fans became followers of the "cutie god" Curry.

But...

You thought that was it?

Third round, Sweet Sixteen, the Wildcats face the third-seeded Wisconsin.

And for this game, in addition to James, Su Feng also took the time to take Kobe and Carter to the site for OB.

As a result, because this world's Curry corrected many details such as ball control and shooting earlier...

So Curry's performance in this game was also different from what Su Feng remembered.

Curry, who scored a total of 38 points for the Wildcats in the game, not only trampled this third seed under his feet...

And the Wildcats also entered the Elite Eight with a score of 80-56.

And on the sidelines, James' various surprised expressions provided a large number of emoticons for James haters.

Online, from the beginning of "March Madness," Stephen Curry's draft pick has been rising all the way on major draft websites.

Some scouts even believe that Curry's performance in the NCAA deserves a top-three pick.

And from the start of March Madness to now, in the words of American fans, if you don't know who Stephen Curry is, it must be because your village doesn't have internet.

Just returning to Cleveland, when asked by reporters who he would most like to play with in the future, James said bluntly: "Of course it's Stephen Curry.

We've known each other since we were kids, and we were even born in the same hospital."

And the Raptors players who once fought alongside Old Curry in the Raptors era have also become the targets of media interviews these days.

In addition, major American TV stations have also successively broadcast various famous scenes of Stephen Curry in the Raptors that year.

On TNT, Barkley complained about this: "I finally know why Su has always said that Dell Curry was the best shooter in the NBA at the time.

Because no matter how good a shooter you are, you can't shoot such an excellent son like Dell Curry."

In short, if such a Curry can be considered unknown before entering the league...

Then Kobe's talent may really be as some brain-dead Kobe fans say—mediocre.



In April, while celebrating his 30th birthday, on his birthday night on the 4th, Su Feng officially led the Lakers to sit on the throne of the fourth seed in the Western Conference.

No way.

Although Nash, who "compares himself to a **** with the body of a mortal," has led the Warriors to play a series of moving games in the past month...

But after Marion left the team...

Looking at the three Adou sent by the Lakers...

You can't let Old Nelson use Kwame Brown, Radmanovic, and Vujacic to fill the void left by Marion's departure, right?

In addition, in terms of the team's recent situation, the Lakers have been on the rise since trading Marion and signing Big Ben.

And the Warriors?

In the words of the local media in Oakland...

Nash is just doing various remedies for this giant ship that is about to sink.

Only...

After the Lakers went through hardships to get into the upper half of the Western Conference...

What made Su Feng angry was...

The next day, except for the media in Los Angeles, the media in other parts of the United States actually left the front-page headlines to that damn stinky kid.

Because in the game against the number one favorite, the University of Kansas, which has four future NBA players including Brandon Rush, Darrell Arthur, Mario Chalmers, and Darnell Jackson... (Note 1)

Facing the opponent's wheel battle, Curry, who took turns playing against Kansas's four major trump cards in the game, made a decision before the end of the game that was completely different from what Su Feng remembered.

In Su Feng's previous life, in this game, the Wildcats once had a chance to kill Kansas before the end.

At that time, they were behind 57-59, and Curry was to execute the final attack.

But after seeing his teammate, who is also the second-leading scorer on this Wildcats team, Richards, in an open position, Curry, like the man who was born with him in the same hospital, chose to pass the ball.

However, this world...

Like James, affected by someone...

This night, the young Stephen Curry finally lived into the appearance he hated the most.

On the court, in the last attack, Curry did not choose to pass the ball.

At a place a full 30 feet from the basket.

He pulled the bolt of his Awm.

And after the style of this shot...

The wheels of history have once again ushered in a 180-degree turn.

The Wildcats defeated Kansas and successfully advanced to the Final Four.

Although, in the final Four, limited by physical fitness, the Wildcats failed to stage a miracle again.

But on the other side, when Curry and his "Davidson Fairy Tale" came to an abrupt end, this year's top pick, Derrick Rose, and his University of Memphis successfully filled the biggest regret of Rose's future after joining the NBA.

In the final, Derrick Rose successfully led the University of Memphis to the top and won the MOP of the 2007/2008 season Final Four. (Note 2)

The Cute God is awesome, the Rose is blooming.

This year's NCAA...

I have to say.

It's really a little bit exciting.

And just as the Lakers only need to win one of the last two regular season games to ensure their fourth place in the West...

On this day, Su Feng also received a call from Dell Curry.

"Ha, Stephen plans to participate in the draft this year?" On the phone, after learning that Old Curry wanted him to give Stephen some draft advice, Su Feng was shocked on the spot.

Because Curry's draft node...

It was a whole year earlier than he remembered.

But after thinking about it carefully for a while, Su Feng also reacted.

First of all, although this world's Curry is still lacking in some aspects, but because the Wildcats have entered the strongest Four, Curry is widely favored on major draft websites, so participating in the draft this year, Curry is indeed likely to get a very ideal pick.

In addition, Old Dell's final agreement for Stephen to participate in the draft this year is also related to Curry's personal wishes.

This kid...

It is impossible to choose to wait another year.

If possible.

He even wanted to enter the NBA now.

Because in this era...

No one doesn't want to compete with him, Su Feng, before he retires.

"Tsk... 95's three-point ability, dog system, are you serious?" After checking Curry's current ability value in his mind...

Su Feng also never expected that his "good nephew" could get such a high rating after the system converted his NCAA panel into an NBA panel.

So, after carefully analyzing Stephen Curry's current ability, as Old Dell's best brother, Su Feng also strengthened Dell Curry's determination to support Curry's participation in the draft a year in advance in this day's phone conversation.

"Oh, by the way, Dell, since Stephen plans to participate in the draft this year, have you considered his various commercial endorsements?" Of course, at the end of the call, Su Feng did not forget to open a sky-high price that Old Dell could not refuse.

In Su Feng's previous life, as the spokesperson of "Gouba" in his early years, because "Gouba" later favored Irving more, Curry, who was not welcomed, switched to "Anxma." (Note 3)

But this world...

Isn't Stephen Curry still a complete Stephen Curry without wearing "Phenomenon"?

It's just that, when Dell Curry heard Su Feng offer his son a 5-year, 50 million offer with a lifetime clause on the phone...

Seriously...

In Old Curry's opinion...

He was probably never more fortunate in his life than to have met Su Feng, this good brother.

Brother!

Although I am a few years older than you!

But please allow me to call you Brother Feng!

As the saying goes, one brother for life!

General Dell Curry is willing to smoke, drink, and perm for the Su family for generations!

"Oh, by the way, Seth has also finished his freshman season, right?" Su Feng asked before hanging up the phone.

And hearing this, Old Curry also mentioned to Su Feng that he wanted Seth to transfer to Duke.

But without thinking about it, Su Feng rejected Old Curry's idea.

Because if Su Feng remembers correctly, in his memory, Seth Curry, who transferred to Duke, not only failed to get a better pick in the future draft as Old Dell had expected...

And because according to NCAA regulations, transfer students have to wait a year before they can play for the team, so Seth Curry also wasted a year for nothing.

"I think it's good for Seth to continue to stay at Liberty, there's no need to go to Duke.

In addition, after all the games this year are over, I will immediately fly back to China to join the Chinese men's basketball team.

So, if Seth is willing at that time, I would like to invite him to return to China with me and guide his basketball skills by the way." On the phone, Su Feng suggested to Old Curry.

And now...

In Old Curry's opinion...

Even if he sold himself, he would not be able to repay Su Feng's kindness to his family.

As one of the few old good guys in the NBA who knows how to repay kindness, after thinking for a while in his mind, Old Curry said gratefully to Su Feng: "Su, if possible, please take me to China with you too.

Although I am old now and useless, I still have some experience in shooting training."

Shooting training?

Some experience?

One thing to say.

At this moment, Su Feng always felt that Old Curry was Versailles with him.

Because for Su Feng, who had witnessed how outrageous Dell Curry was in shooting training in his early years...

If Dell Curry wasn't interested in being a shooting coach...

Then I'm afraid that 30 NBA teams would line up to ask him to come out of the mountain.

Good guy!

Don't you know that your behavior is funding the enemy?

On this day, after successfully harvesting Old Curry, this plug-in for the Chinese men's basketball team...

Su Feng couldn't help but recall a famous saying of someone back then:

Isn't everyone in the world...?

14th, 16th.

In the last two games of the regular season, the Lakers did not make a choice when they only needed to win one game to ensure that the team would sit firmly in fourth place in the West.

After defeating the Spurs and Kings respectively, they finally successfully locked the throne of the fourth seed in the Western Conference regular season with an excellent record of 54 wins and 28 losses.

At the beginning of the season, when Su Feng made the declaration that the Lakers would return to the upper half of the Western Conference, who would have thought at the time that they would really be able to enter the upper half of the Western Conference at the end of the season?

And Los Angeles, Kobe, who will start training again in May this year, has finally waited for the sunny day after enduring a full 15 months. (Note 4)

Although Kobe can't participate with the team in this year's playoffs.

But looking at this energetic Lakers led by Chef Su...

At this moment, Kobe really wanted to give Su Feng a medal called "Best Wife".

Of course, Su Feng probably never dreamed at this time...

That Kobe will give him one medal after another in the future.

And in the future, if you want to ask Su Feng when the nickname "Su Xun Zong" started... (Note 5)

That's probably it now.
