Chapter 108 Madison Square Garden, New York

After the third game of the new season against the Knicks, Su Feng really wanted to say to Van Gundy:

Happy cooperation, Jeff.

108 to 92. Looking at the 6.75 million brick-laying points he got after the game, Su Feng regretted that he didn't have the x5 brick-laying point buff this game.

Why is there only one opponent like the Knicks in the 90s, who have high ratings and you can always win against them?

After the game, Van Gundy touched his head, looked at the scoreboard, and was depressed again.

That's not right... Logically speaking, I'm already bald, so why haven't I become stronger?

Ah, no... Seriously, we have so many All-Star players, so why can't we beat the little 76ers?

Van Gundy was a little confused.

Su Feng, on the other hand, hoped that Van Gundy wouldn't figure it out in the next few years, because how many brick-laying points would the Knicks have to provide him every year?

This game was exactly the same as the 76ers' previous victory over the Knicks.

In the first quarter, Ewing started one-on-one attacks, Ewing continued one-on-one attacks, and Ewing kept one-on-one attacking!

In the second quarter, Ward couldn't defend, Childs couldn't defend either, damn it, you can't let Larry Johnson defend Iverson, can you?

In the third quarter, Allan Houston, who had an excellent touch, stood still. Don't ask, it's just that everyone started watching Ewing masturbating again.

In the fourth quarter, "Grandma" was forgotten, and Van Gundy still didn't substitute "Grandma". Oh my god, are Childs and Ward really your own sons?

Looking at the team's anxious performance, Knicks fans "betrayed" again. In the second half, their cheers were almost all for Su Feng and Iverson.

In the game, Su Feng made 9 of 19 shots, including 3 of 8 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws, scoring 25 points, 6 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 assists.

Iverson, who was ready to go, didn't exert much effort in this game. After getting 22 points and 9 assists, he went down to listen to Su Feng's praise.

Starkhouse, who had been suffering from lower back pain recently and missed the New York nightclubs, scored 18 points in this game, which was remarkable.

Ratliff once again played against Ewing with similar data, scoring 16 points and 12 rebounds, 2 more rebounds than Ewing, and only 4 points less than Ewing.

"Grandma" was still efficient in this game, but unfortunately, under Su Feng's tenacious defense, "Grandma" only scored 10 points in the game.

Bah! Johnson clearly made 5 of 7 shots, but he just didn't have the ball. What could he do?

Houston made 7 of 12 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, and no free throws, scoring 15 points.

Honestly, in Su Feng's opinion, if Houston took two or thirty centimeters back from those mid-range shots, wouldn't they all be 3-pointers?

Houston under Van Gundy is destined to only be the "Mid-Range King".

The Houston who could make 2.3 three-pointers per game with a shooting percentage of over 40% in Detroit last season is gone.

But to be fair, Van Gundy is indeed a good coach who protects his players.

In this game, because the score was widened too much in the fourth quarter, Ewing, who knew he had no hope of catching up, glared at Big Ben, who was always coming to help defend, and almost broke out in conflict.

At a critical moment, it's okay if Oakley came forward to persuade Ewing to separate Big Ben, but Van Gundy... with your little body, are you looking for death?

In Su Feng's previous life, on May 30, 1998, in that famous iron-blooded duel, because of a conflict between the Knicks and Heat players on the court, Van Gundy hugged Mourning's thigh tightly in order to protect the Knicks players, and was dragged by Mourning on the floor for several meters.

In the future, when coaching Yao and McGrady, Van Gundy would always come forward to help Yao Ming fight against the American media when Yao Ming was criticized.

He always felt that the American media at the time was too harsh on Yao Ming.

And although Yao Ming gained weight every year, Van Gundy still tried his best to protect Yao Ming in terms of playing time.

If it weren't for the fact that he played too many games for the national team later, plus Adelman's genius idea of letting the 140 kg Yao Ming play run-and-gun, although playing under Van Gundy was annoying, Yao Ming would never have retired so early.

Van Gundy is stubborn, and he admitted his mistakes after retiring in the future.

No matter how much pressure he usually puts on his players, at critical moments, if your players are beaten, don't worry, the first one to jump out will definitely be Van Gundy, who will help you hug the thigh of the enemy's "fighting core".

After the game, when asked by reporters why the 76ers were able to sweep the Knicks three times, Su Feng didn't add salt to Van Gundy's wound. He jokingly said:

"In fact, before this game started, I didn't know if we could win.

We might win, or we might lose.

From the perspective of quantum mechanics, this win or loss may exist at the same time. Only at the end of the game can you know if we can win."

Davis, who participated in the press conference with Su Feng, was amused, because Su Feng actually expressed this kind of platitude in another way.

On the surface, Su Feng didn't say anything important, but in fact, he saved face for Van Gundy and showed his wit.

In the future, when Duncan was interviewed, he was very good at answering reporters' questions from a scientific point of view, so Duncan's black spots, besides plucking his teammates bald and deceiving the emperor, were basically gone.

Su Feng didn't study psychology, but as a keyboard warrior in his previous life, he made many young girls cry.

In this way, with a victory, the 76ers left New York and went to Chicago.

...

If Su Feng had to say which NBA music he liked the most in his previous life, it would definitely be the Bulls' entrance music.

The Chicago Bulls, who had moved to the United Center, were matched with such a high-energy BGM, and any visiting team would inevitably feel admiration for this Bulls team when they came here.

On the 21st, the Chicago United Center was filled with excitement, and all Chicagoans were waiting for the "God" in their hearts.

Michael Jordan was in a great mood tonight because he won 9,000 US dollars in a gambling game last night.

Yes, you read that right, not tens of thousands, just a mere 9,000 US dollars.

The Bulls players couldn't keep up with Jordan's thinking, because everyone felt that you usually lose hundreds of thousands or millions at every turn, so...

Is it worth it for a big shot like you to be happy about winning 9,000 US dollars?

It is worth mentioning that Pippen successfully fooled Jordan before the start of this game.

"Michael, in this game, why don't you try Allen Iverson's breakthrough?

That way, you only need to play against him for three rounds. As long as you defend all of them, I'll give you ten thousand US dollars." Pippen said to Jordan while changing equipment before the game.

Jordan, who was in a good mood at the time, almost laughed out loud, "Three rounds? How about five rounds? I can't always take advantage of you, Scotty."

Great!

Boss Jordan is really a great person.

Pippen was happy. When he thought that his ankle was almost torn in the game against the 76ers, Pippen felt that Jordan must also experience what he experienced in the last game.

And as the entrance ceremony ended, the big screen also showed the starting lineups of the two teams tonight.

Bulls: Longley, Rodman, Pippen, Jordan, Harper.

76ers: Ratliff, Big Ben, Su Feng, Harris, Iverson.

The 76ers, who were playing back-to-back, were full of energy tonight, mainly thanks to the support of the friendly army Knicks in the last game.

Looking at the "Old Rogue" who didn't want to pay attention to him, Su Feng's eyes were full of resentment when he looked at Pippen before the game.

Forget it, Pippen is just Pippen!

Su Feng knew that as long as he could win a game against the Bulls, he wouldn't be afraid that the "Old Rogue" wouldn't catch him and beat him up in the next two games against the Bulls?

NBC and Da Tianchao TV will broadcast this game live.

The American melon-eating masses really want to see if the Bulls can stop the 76ers' strong team identification technique.

And the Chinese melon-eating masses want to see how Brother Feng plays Jordan and teases Pippen in Director Zhang's mouth in this game.

Honestly, a few days ago, when he was on the phone with his parents, Su Feng vaguely had the illusion that he was the number one person in the world basketball world...

Speaking of which, after the two teams' players stood in the center circle, looking at Su Feng, Pippen joked and teased: "Hey! Little 'Sweet Melon', I will take good care of you tonight."

Su Feng scratched his head. Facing Pippen's unreasonable demands, he used his ultimate trick: "Oh? Isn't this the great Scottie Pippen?

Please forgive me for asking you a presumptuous question, how much money do you make a year now?"

What is trash talk?

Trash talk is to kill with one blow.

Pippen's "The postman doesn't work on weekends" to Malone in the future is an example, but unfortunately, Pippen ran into a tough guy tonight...

Looking at Pippen, who was stunned in place by Su Feng, Jordan swore with his conscience that he definitely didn't laugh!

On the court, just when Pippen was thinking about life, Ratliff jumped for the 76ers' first attack!

Iverson, who was responsible for dribbling and preparing to launch the scythe tactic, was stunned...

Because at the beginning of tonight, the person responsible for defending him was Michael Jordan.

Iverson gave Su Feng a eager look, and Su Feng knew that at this time, if he didn't let Iverson play against Jordan, then he wouldn't be Iverson.

So, Su Feng approved Iverson's challenge application with his eyes.

Unknowingly, Iverson, who had been fooled by Su Feng, almost forgot, isn't he just playing one-on-one? Why does he need Su Feng's approval?

On the court, the Yao Si pulled away, and the melon-eating masses at the Chicago scene stopped eating popcorn at this moment.

Because, the world famous painting is coming!

Dong, dong, dong.

Left hand, right hand, left hand, right hand.

When Iverson dribbled the ball repeatedly between his legs, his large dribbling movements almost made Michael Jordan lose his balance.

No fancy adjectives or more elaboration are needed.

You just need to know that Iverson shook Jordan away.

Although the "Old Rogue" showed his amazing waist strength and pounced on Iverson at the last moment, facing his idol that he had hand-painted, Iverson gave his "answer".

Shua——!

Stern adjusted the home and away game order between the first two games between the 76ers and the Bulls in order to take care of the ratings, which made this scene, which would have happened in the Central State Stadium, happen in the Chicago United Center!

The Chicago fans at the scene let out bursts of exclamation. They were amazed by Iverson's imagination and surprised by the fighting spirit of both Su Feng and Iverson in the face of Jordan.

2 to 0!

Jordan's good mood is gone.

At this moment, Jordan and Pippen looked at each other, and the two reached another tacit understanding.

If they don't beat these 76ers to death tonight, then Jordan and Pippen will write their names backwards!

On the court, the Bulls attacked, with a 122 formation, preparing to play the triangle offense.

Although Jordan is not defending Su Feng in this game, the 76ers are still using Su Feng to play against Jordan.

However, Jordan, who won a lot of money last night, had very bad luck at the beginning of tonight. He pushed Su Feng away, but beautifully sent a brick.

Iron Gang Leader, online lesson teaching!

In Los Angeles, watching TV, Kobe took out his small notebook and wrote: "Well, this kind of ball can be shot, because although it didn't go in, it can effectively打击敌方士气 (dǎjī dífāng shìqì, demoralize the enemy)."

In Su Feng's previous life, Jordan's touch would be very bad throughout this month. Except for a few occasional outbreaks, his overall shooting percentage was below 45%.

Combined with the reports from the Chicago underground media, Su Feng believed that the "Old Rogue" must have gone to spread money again recently...

There's no way, Jordan is also a human being, and as long as he is a human being, he will expand.

Jordan, who returned at the last moment of the 94/95 season, is an example. Once he stays away from basketball for a long time, even Jordan can't guarantee his state.

Inside the restricted area, Big Ben protected the rebound. Facing Rodman's small movements, Big Ben learned from Malone when he grabbed the rebound.

Elbow Power, Elbow Emperor Big Ben!

Come here!

If you have the ability, come and pull my jersey!

In the 96/97 season, in the finals, Rodman only grabbed 7.7 rebounds per game, including only 1.7 offensive rebounds. His rebound data was far lower than the regular season's average of 16.1 rebounds and 5.8 offensive rebounds.

The reason for Rodman's sluggish state at that time was related to his mind gradually drifting off the court, but more importantly, he didn't dare to use his small movements much when facing Malone.

Using "black feet" to think about it, how could Rodman, who is already 35 years old, still bounce around like he did when he was young?

He has many small movements when grabbing rebounds, which often makes his opponents annoyed, but once he encounters a tough guy, Rodman will never fight with you.

In Su Feng's previous life, Rodman was just such a person. He was good at angering his opponents, and then waited until his opponents lost control of their emotions before he jumped aside and watched his opponents eat T.

He learned from Laimbeer. Compared with Malone, a real Salt Lake City villain, he was not qualified at all.

Su Feng had reminded Big Ben before the game, and Ratliff was also very sensible in this game. As soon as he saw Big Ben raise his elbow, he immediately hid aside.

The best way to deal with Rodman is to be fiercer and more evil than him.

Look, after Big Ben grabbed the rebound and roared, dare Rodman look at him?

As early as when the Bulls played against the Knicks, Rodman had heard the legend of Ben Wallace from Oakley.

A tough guy who dared to fight with Oakley in high school, even if his grades were not good, as long as he was willing to play football, countless universities would be willing to reach out to him, dare Rodman provoke him?

Wouldn't it be that Big Ben would bear the cost of being banned for about ten games and directly knock Rodman out of retirement...

Yes, that's right. In this era, as long as you don't hit fans, small things like fighting won't ban you for a few games.

On the court, the 76ers attacked. This time, Iverson had more confidence, but Jordan was Jordan. The "Old Rogue" endured the pain of tearing his ankle and chased Iverson all the way to the basket.

Disturbed by Jordan, Iverson's layup failed to go in.

In fact, according to the bet with Pippen, Jordan had already lost, but Jordan is this kind of person...

To put it nicely, he "hates evil", to put it badly, he has a small mind...

However, although Iverson failed to score, Ratliff yanked Longley open in the Bulls' restricted area.

In Su Feng's previous life, there were even Bulls fans who stood up to clear Longley's name, saying that he was an underrated restricted area defender...

Honestly, Su Feng felt that these people must be blacking out the "Old Rogue", thinking that Jordan's teammates were too weak, and they had to blow all the Bulls players into All-Stars, because only in this way could they go back to a certain group to ask for fifty cents.

Longley is extremely slow. Ratliff was responsible for dealing damage this time, and Big Ben helped him block Rodman.

When Rodman was about to use his jersey-pulling trick, Big Ben threw an elbow backwards without saying a word.

In the nick of time, Rodman quickly dodged backwards. Looking at the strength of Big Ben's elbow, Rodman was convinced.

After Ratliff grabbed the offensive rebound and scored it himself, 4 to 0!

After entering December, the Bulls' state has declined severely. If Rodman had been more focused just now, even without small movements, Big Ben would not have been able to block him.

"Zen Master" still looked calm on the surface, but in his heart, he had already begun to worry about the future of this Bulls team.

Turning around, Jordan missed again!

This time he played the rhythm and flashed out an opportunity, but after the basketball was thrown out, Jordan knew that this ball would not go in.

Inside the 76ers' restricted area, Ratliff protected the rebound.

Although he is still a sophomore, like Big Ben, with excellent opponents like "Ai Feng", coupled with the daily persistence in practicing with Big Ben, how can Ratliff's progress be described as fast?

On Da Tianchao TV, Director Zhang smiled and said: "This is Su Feng's one-on-one defensive ability. Have you seen it? Jordan has already missed two shots in a row."

Sun Zhengping on the side smiled and said: "Director Zhang is right, even Michael Jordan can't beat Su Feng."

Director Zhang: "..."

It's a pity that Su Feng can't hear this commentary, otherwise, this would be...

Simply lying down and gaining reputation.

Su Feng tried his best in these two defenses, but what can he do? Jordan is experienced and has many rhythms, but sometimes, the touch is just so metaphysical.

On the court, the 76ers launched a counterattack. Looking at Pippen, who was staring at him, Su Feng, who had once again obtained Davis's permission to fire before the game, stood one step away from the current three-point line, and fired directly after receiving the ball!

Pippen had watched the video before the game and knew that Su Feng was good at running, fast, and could also post up, but Pippen had never watched the game in which the 76ers played the Hornets in Charlotte.

Because if he had watched it, he should have rushed up for this ball.

Shua——!

"Alas, as expected, the defense of 2.25 million US dollars and the defense of 30.14 million US dollars have such a big gap."

After scoring the shot, Su Feng gave Pippen another fatal blow.

He was not afraid of angering Pippen, who had succeeded in stealing the chicken, because in order to win this game against the Bulls, he had to help Iverson attract the attention of other Bulls players.

Behind the scenes, this is the "Feng" cornerstone!

7 to 0.

Not to mention Pippen's angry expression, NBC TV, commentator Williams was already dumbfounded...

Because, you can't say that the Bulls are also a "fake strong team", can you?

"The 76ers tonight are indeed the same as their previous games, always so unpredictable..."

...
