Chapter 1 Resting for a Day, the Lakers Visit Phoenix to Challenge the Suns

Plagued by a lingering back injury, McGrady officially announced his return in this game.

However, compared to the Suns team that made it to the Finals back then...

This Suns team, riddled with injuries, is no longer what it used to be.

In the preseason, to give these nBdL teammates more opportunities to adapt to the game, the Lakers were once惨敗 (can bai, miserably defeated) by 25 points to the Suns, who were missing McGrady, at the America West Arena.

However, in this rematch, amidst the cheers of my Lakers' weaklings on the sidelines, Su Feng, wielding the Fang Tian Hua Ji (halberd) and riding the Red Hare horse, charged in and out of the chaotic army seven times...

McGrady, whose back injury had not fully recovered, and the old Hill, who had just celebrated his 35th birthday, were beheaded by him in front of the White Gate Tower.

The stubbornly unyielding old Hill was really struggling this season. In the entire game, he played for the Suns for 37 minutes and scored a total of 19 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists.

When the Suns launched a counterattack on the court, Hill, exhausted by Su Feng's torment, regretted that he couldn't be three years younger.

McGrady, whose back injury had not fully recovered, couldn't exert his full strength in the game.

When making many technical moves, you could clearly see that McGrady was always hesitant about this or that on this night.

Of course, even so...

The Lakers still didn't win this game easily.

In the entire game, Su Feng made 19 of 37 shots, including 5 of 11 three-pointers and 9 of 10 free throws, scoring a total of 52 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists for the Lakers.

And online, regarding this game, there were new jokes on a certain Pu forum after the game.

That is, if it weren't for the Lakers' weaklings desperately jumping into the well, how could Su Zilong have such a big stage to show off at Changban Slope and make people's scalps tingle?

To be fair...

Compared to the past, when black fans would nitpick no matter how many points he scored...

This season, Su Feng finally understood why Kobe could play so happily even when he was madly bricking shots in the game in his memory.

Because with such a group of teammates who can always stand up and take the blame for you...

No matter how you play, the evaluation you get will be "Su Feng tried his best, his teammates are CBA (Chinese Basketball Association level)."

What "Miami Dogshit Magic" or "Toronto New Irving"?

In Su Feng's opinion, playing in the nBA, there is simply nothing more enjoyable than being "Los Angeles Little Kobe"!

"People, as expected, will eventually live to become the kind of person they hate!"

On this day, after leading the team back triumphantly from Phoenix, Su Feng silently lamented.

…

For two consecutive games in the new season, he scored "50+", and led this weak Lakers team to defeat two playoff strong teams in the eyes of the world one after another. For a time, Su Feng was in the limelight.

On the 4th, the Lakers sat at home to face the Hornets.

In this life, although there is no Paul, with David West entering the peak of his career, the Lakers also encountered a tough battle at home in this game.

In the first half alone, West, who made all 8 of his shots, scored 20 points for the Hornets.

At his career peak, West, who could play inside and out, was also an underrated player.

On the court, West, who had extremely high basketball IQ, knew that he couldn't directly fight against the Lakers' interior, so in the game, in addition to frequently pulling out to the perimeter to set screens for Peja Stojakovic, who the Hornets signed this summer, he would only use his mobility to attack when he was switched to Marc Gasol.

In addition, what surprised Su Feng the most was that during one of West's free throws, he even greeted him in a very standard Mandarin.

There was no way, even Su Feng, who was like an "nBA Encyclopedia," couldn't remember all the relevant deeds of all the nBA players in his memory.

In fact, in his original timeline, West not only had a high basketball IQ, but his IQ was also far above the average level of this league.

In the future, after the outbreak of the epidemic and a certain person's incident, West had repeatedly called on the United States to learn from China in public, and he also said that the nBA should expel schemers like Mo, who only destroyed Sino-US basketball relations for their political future, as soon as possible.

In addition, West is also a famous China expert in the nBA.

He not only dabbles in China's politics, economy, and culture, but also knows some Chinese historical allusions like the back of his hand.

It's a pity that although West held the situation for the Hornets on this night, "New Bee King" Felton was not Paul after all.

In the final quarter, seizing the opportunity of the Hornets' consecutive offensive mistakes, Su Feng successfully led the Lakers to play a wave on the court.

In the entire game, the final score between the two teams was 98 to 106.

Compared to the previous two games, Su Feng's performance declined slightly in this game, only getting 41 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Williams, who had madly bricked 24 shots in the previous two games combined after paying tribute to Kobe, finally ushered in an outbreak in this game.

In this game, all 19 points that Williams scored for the Lakers were obtained in the fourth quarter.

And originally, the Lakers fans who cursed him in their hearts every time Williams got the ball in the first three quarters also performed what is called "face-changing" to basketball fans all over the world.

"So, is the orthodox tradition of Sichuan opera in Los Angeles?" And on a certain Pu forum, this season's Lakers are simply a source of inspiration for joke writers.

The new season started with a three-game winning streak.

Before the start of the regular season, even the most devout Lakers fans didn't dare to imagine this.

But when the facts really happened...

Just like Su Feng said to Kupchak before...

The fans who discovered that the clown was actually themselves were just building a bigger stage for this Lakers team.

"Okay, you did play well in these three games.

But if I remember correctly, you played the entire game in these three games, right?

So, are you sure you can hold on until the later stages of the season?"

Look, isn't that so...

Su Feng doesn't know if the black fans are anxious these days, but Kobe is indeed very anxious.

Online, because the black fans couldn't find any flaws in Su Feng after the Lakers won three games in a row, instigating discord became the only joy for this group of black fans.

"After Kobe recovers from his injury, hurry up and trade him to exchange for more championship拼图 (pin tu, puzzle pieces) for Emperor Feng!"

"Kobe? A pseudo-superstar who can only barely reach the edge of the playoffs by leading the team alone!

Seriously, in my opinion, the most undeserving of the four great shooting guards is Kobe!"

"If the Lakers don't want to waste Su's precious peak period, then they must make a decision as soon as possible.

Because Kobe is no longer suitable for this Lakers team!"

Before the Internet was developed, relatively speaking, the public opinion pressure that nBA stars in the 80s and 90s had to endure was not as outrageous as in this era.

Because as the cost of cursing and spreading rumors becomes lower and lower, many malicious slanders can be done with just a touch of a finger.

And, even if some fans feel that they are just joking, but for people like Kobe who are serious about everything...

Recently, Su Feng has clearly felt that Kobe is unhappy more and more often.

This has nothing to do with whether Kobe wants this Lakers team to be good or bad...

It's purely because winning is not embarrassing, but whoever is missing is embarrassing.

Therefore, on the 6th, before leading the team to Utah, Su Feng also put away his usual joking and said earnestly to Kobe: "No matter how others view you, in my heart, you are the only player in this league who can beat me in a one-on-one, Kobe."

Hearing this, if it were normal, Kobe would probably have been resurrected on the spot with full health under Su Feng's inspirational chicken soup.

But since Kobe is also human...

Then who doesn't have a fragile moment?

In the case of a torn Achilles tendon, Kobe actually doesn't have 100% confidence in his ability to fully recover.

Therefore, the usual stubbornness is just his last stubbornness in front of Su Feng.

And as the online fans and media slander him more and more outrageously, even if Kobe is strong, an emotion called loneliness will occupy his entire body.

So Su Feng knows very well...

He must draw a bigger, sweeter, and more delicious pie for Young Master Kobe.

So, after thinking about it in his mind for a while, Su Feng continued to say to Kobe: "Can you not be so effeminate?

Is it just me who thinks that after you recover from your injury next season, you can achieve the season '30+' triple-double achievement in nBA games like you did in high school?"

Hiss—!

Season "30+" triple-double achievement?

Raising his frustrated head again, I don't know why, at this moment, Kobe's heart seemed to be hooked by Su Feng.

"'30+' triple-double you've already done several times.

Even if I can do it, people won't remember me."

However, Kobe, who was still stubborn, said so after sighing.

Seeing this, Su Feng, knowing that Kobe had already taken the bait, hurriedly added: "Then what about the nBA's new historical record? Achieving this record, are you sure people won't remember you?"

nBA's new historical record?

Good heavens!

If we want to surpass the best historical record created by the Heat back then...

Doesn't that mean that the Lakers can only lose 5 games at most next season?

"But even if we do it, that's a team honor.

And now you are the boss of this Lakers team...

So at that time, people will definitely praise you and not mention me." Kobe said with a look of grievance.

Su Feng: "..."

Well!

Good fellow!

So you were waiting for me here?

"Then why don't you be the boss next season?" Su Feng joked to him, knowing that Kobe had recovered.

And originally, Kobe really wanted to answer "yes" subconsciously...

But knowing that you can't be too greedy, he thought about it seriously for a while and said: "Then there's no need.

Before deciding to go to Miami with Mitch and Jim to recruit you, I had already prepared to assist you in securing the throne in the rest of my career.

But..."

"But what?" Su Feng asked with a curious look.

"But, if you can admit that you never won against me in high school...

I think my mood should be in a very good state during the injury recovery time." Kobe blinked his eyes and said to Su Feng.

Su Feng: "..."

No...

You're starting to threaten me now, aren't you?

Damn it, Kobe!

I was the man who commanded Michael Jordan on the court back then?

Do you think I will succumb to you?

…

In November, after winning the Western Conference Player of the Week award for two consecutive weeks, Su Feng's new season's "God Zhao Yun" experience trip continues.

However, in the third week of the new season, although Su Feng handed over an average score of 39.8 points per game this week...

But because the Lakers lost to the Celtics, 76ers, Mavericks, and Jazz in succession, Su Feng, who led the team to end the devil's schedule with 1 win and 4 losses this week, failed to win the favor of the judges again.

There is no way.

In the face of hard power, unless Su Feng can borrow another "Divine Descent to Earth," otherwise, with the combat power of this group of Lakers' weaklings...

It is no different from a痴人说梦 (chi ren shuo meng, an idiot's dream) for this Lakers team to defeat these universe teams.

Maybe in the regular season, on some nights when Su Feng breaks out, the Lakers can reverse and defeat these universe teams.

But in the face of "big data," upsets are only small probability events after all.

And after the end of the third week of the new season, the confidence that Marc Gasol had finally built up with great difficulty in the first two weeks was almost destroyed by Duncan and Yao Ming.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the 36 encounters with Duncan in his career, judging from the data, Marc Gasol could barely be on par with the elderly Duncan.

But in these 36 games, Marc Gasol lost 27 of them.

That is to say, in terms of winning percentage, Duncan maintains an overwhelming advantage over Marc Gasol.

And in this life, although Duncan has also experienced some injuries before, compared with the same period in Su Feng's memory, a healthier Duncan for the current Marc Gasol...

It is simply a nightmare-like existence.

In the game against the Celtics, Marc Gasol clearly felt that he had defended Duncan many times...

But in the next second, Duncan could always send the ball into the basket with his miraculous rebounding skills.

And if Duncan just made Marc Gasol feel for the first time what the level of an nBA interior star is...

Then in the subsequent game between the Lakers and the 76ers...

Marc Gasol was completely爆得体无完肤 (bao de ti wu wan fu, crushed without a single intact part).

If you don't understand, just ask...

How did his stupid brother manage to go five-five with this Little Yao on the international stage?

"Is this really an opponent that humans can defeat?"

In the game against the 76ers, Marc Gasol, who only got 4 points, 5 rebounds, and fouled out with six fouls, looked at Yao Ming, who had already scored 45 points and 18 rebounds on the court, and exclaimed as he left the court.

Alright!

Su Feng was beaten to death again by his cute Yao brother.

And by the way, he also helped Yao Ming refresh his career-high single-game score.

There is still no way...

Because no one in the Lakers' interior can compete with Yao Ming before Marc Gasol grows up...

So you can completely understand Yao Ming on this night as:

Given what he asks for.

Technically, Little Yao at this moment has completely reached the peak of his career.

Low post hook shot, high post jump shot, back fadeaway, tiptoe three-pointer.

Basically, all the center offensive skills that you can imagine, Little Yao has cultivated to perfection.

In addition, in the case that Iverson has completely become an assistant in the new season, compared to the Yao Ming who always collaborated with a bunch of chuchu (rough) guards in Su Feng's memory...

This is the ultimate cheat that Little Yao has obtained in this life.

Because in the case that he has won a championship with Yao Ming, Iverson at this time hopes to extend his career as much as possible, so whether it is in mentality or style of play, he has undergone a great change.

After all, in this league, no one will dislike having too few championship rings.

In Su Feng's previous life, in fact, during his time with the Nuggets, everyone knew that Iverson was deliberately giving way to Anthony at that time.

But unfortunately, the melon at that time was still a "child."

So what was wrong with the melon at that time?

Just...

After Yao Ming overshadowed Su Feng in the first China Derby between Yao Ming and Su Feng, after the game, you may not believe it when I say this...

The most hurt...

Turned out to be O'Neal.

Because this season, the opponents that O'Neal couldn't solve, Yao Ming solved them all, and the games that O'Neal couldn't win, Yao Ming also won them all. So in the eyes of many people, it was just that O'Neal was lucky, and now he has the excuse of being old to make excuses...

Otherwise, wouldn't this Little Yao have exposed his mask as a pseudo-super center?

There is also no way.

Because O'Neal in this life, during the peak of his career, met a man who dared to屠神 (tu shen, slay gods)...

So at the end of this fathead's career, he will definitely be questioned by many people.

In contrast, Yao Ming, who entered the league later, is undoubtedly the luckier person.

Because in this era where there are not many centers anymore...

Yao Ming is destined to teach many children how to be human.

And at the end of November, in order to help Marc Gasol, whose confidence was almost destroyed by Yao Ming and Duncan last week, rebuild his confidence, looking at the Lakers' schedule, Su Feng also suggested to Coach Lue this day: "In our next game against the Magic, let Marc be our main attacker in the opening stage!"

In the new season, with Howard's growth, the Magic have successfully entered the playoff circle of the Eastern Conference monster house.

Therefore, when he learned of Su Feng's suggestion...

At first, Coach Lue almost thought Su Feng was crazy.

But after thinking about it carefully in his mind for a while, Coach Lue found out...

Marc Gasol seems to be able to beat this Howard.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the 18 career encounters with Howard, Marc Gasol won 12 of them.

And except for being slightly weaker than Howard on rebounds, like Yao Ming, Marc Gasol has never let Howard take advantage of him.

Because for Howard's offensive skills that can't even be called三板斧 (san ban fu, three axe attacks)...

Facing Marc Gasol, who is far heavier and taller than him, you can't let him use his "offensive talent negative" that Ewing would cry when he saw it and Olajuwon would faint when he saw it to force Marc Gasol, right?

And coming back, although Howard can use his defensive area to interfere with Marc Gasol's mid-to-long-range shots, but once he enters the low post...

If it weren't for Marc Gasol's playing style in the Grizzlies era in Su Feng's memory being more inclined to coordination...

With Howard's limbs that are thinner than a model's... (Note 1)

How could he be able to withstand this Spanish white bear that is Marc Gasol?

Because in December, the Lakers will also be visiting Atlanta...

So Su Feng knows that before Marc Gasol welcomes his older brother, he must let Marc Gasol restore his confidence first.

Otherwise...

With the tragic situation of Marc Gasol facing Pau Gasol in the early stages of his career...

Seriously, this kid might really be depressed at that time.

15 to 8, 22 to 8, 10 to 4, 13 to 2...

Yes, you didn't read it wrong, these are the scoring comparisons between the two when Marc Gasol faced his stupid brother in his early career.

International practice, the older brother is in front, and the younger brother is in the back.

In Su Feng's original timeline, it wasn't until Pau Gasol entered the late stage of his career that Marc Gasol won the "brother battle" between the two brothers again and again in Pau Gasol's smile.

Su Feng knows very well that the next two games with the Magic and the Hawks...

I'm afraid it will be the Lakers' Finals this season.

Because...

How can Marc Gasol be something in a pond?

Once he encounters "Feng" Yun, he will transform into a dragon.

As the Lakers' most valuable asset this season...

Su Feng knows that how much experience Marc Gasol can gain this season, then how high the ceiling of this Lakers team will be when Kobe returns next year.

After all, no matter how strong "God Zilong" is, if there is no support from Brother Yide and Brother Yunchang...

Then you can't really expect Su Feng to be able to捅他一万个透明窟窿 (tong ta yi wan ge tou ming ku long, stab a million transparent holes) in Cao Jun's million-strong army, right?

And on the 30th, Orlando Amway Center...

When Howard strides onto the stage under Ewing's捂脸 (wu lian, covering his face) gaze and Olajuwon's turning his head away to watch...

Howard, who felt that his strength in the new season was enough to吊锤 (diao chui, beat badly) Yao Ming,摁在地板上暴打 (an zai di ban shang bao da, slam and beat on the floor) Duncan, and let O'Neal carry his shoes, obviously didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.

In addition, before the game, if you translate Howard's provocation against Marc Gasol in the center of the court at that time...

Then it's roughly as follows:

"Who is this Lakers team's starting center?"

…
