Chapter 421 The Super Luxury Tax

Following the introduction of the "Super Luxury Tax" bill, NBA experts in both China and the United States immediately began to interpret the new legislation.

The vast majority of these individuals supported the bill.

In a segment on ESPN, Balbas and guest Bill Walton pointed out that in recent seasons, the significant gap between the "Big Three" and other teams had severely impacted the overall quality of NBA games and the level of interest in some teams.

For example, during the 2001/02 season, the "Big Three" accounted for 124 of all nationally televised NBA games.

In contrast, the Chicago Bulls only had six nationally televised games during the same season.

Therefore, from a balanced and long-term development perspective, the passage of the "Super Luxury Tax" would lead to a more even distribution of talent and a higher overall quality of play in the NBA.

Of course, some people raised objections.

Whether it was the Celtics, the Lakers, or the Raptors...

These teams had built their rosters without violating NBA rules.

So, if other teams' front offices weren't performing well, should the league introduce rules to create parity?

The league's top executives addressed these concerns by explaining that as a "fair, just, and open" league, they would only make choices that benefited the majority of teams.

This was also to prevent cutthroat competition in the NBA in the future.

Su Feng knew from his previous life that the world of soccer, after the Bosman ruling, served as a prime example.

In a few years, teams like Ajax and Eindhoven would only become star factories for the larger clubs.

And as a league without promotion or relegation, and no transfer fees...

If the NBA didn't implement these restrictions, teams like the Bucks might as well disband.

Furthermore, the introduction of the "Super Luxury Tax" would not only effectively limit the ability of some powerhouse teams to arbitrarily strengthen their rosters, but it would also accelerate the rebuilding process for weaker teams.

Now, weak teams could no longer blindly hoard lottery picks.

Otherwise, when it came time to re-sign players, they would inevitably become "star supermarkets" that other teams happily raided.

Some people also believed that the league introduced the "Super Luxury Tax" primarily to target the Raptors, Celtics, and Lakers.

Under the existing rules, if the owners of the "Big Three" were all willing to pay the luxury tax, no one would doubt their continued dominance of the NBA for the next decade.

"It's too hard for Feng! Not only did they not give my Feng the MVP for two consecutive years, but why is the NBA targeting my Feng like this?"

"Exactly, isn't the league forcing the Raptors to break up? From the perspective of contract expiration dates, the Raptors will be the team most affected by the 'Super Luxury Tax'!"

"This is it, you still call the NBA 'fair, open, and just'?

Feng haters, open your eyes and take a good look, which version of the league isn't trying to weaken my Feng?"

Uh...

To be honest, Su Feng found it quite absurd that his fans online thought he was going to be weakened.

However, Su Feng wasn't foolish enough to pretend to be innocent about his fans online fighting for him.

Because he was indeed being "weakened"!

To avoid the Raptors being penalized by the "Super Luxury Tax"...

Wouldn't he have to leave next summer and start over somewhere else?

See, when others make Decision One, they are criticized for being ungrateful.

But when he, Su Feng, makes Decision One, you have to praise him for being righteous.

What is brotherly love from the commissioner?

In Su Feng's eyes, Stern's "Super Luxury Tax" bill was the greatest assistance to his future career plans.

Because in addition to Stern creating the conditions for him to leave...

Keep in mind that in the 2003/04 season, the NBA's salary cap was only $47.5 million.

This was because in this life, the NBA quickly recovered from the "Post-Jordan Era" and had higher revenues than in his previous life.

According to the NBA's projected salary caps for the next few years, the luxury tax threshold for the 2003/04 season would be around $57.5 million.

So, here's the question...

How would the Celtics handle their roster at that time?

And among the Lakers' Big Three, which two would they choose to keep, or would they keep the trident?

Su Feng knew that as long as he could quickly get through the "babysitting" period of guiding young players after switching teams, the era that would transition from the "Three Kings Standing" to the "Warring States Period"...

Would be the best era for him personally.

And since people believed that Stern's actions were targeting him...

When he successfully restored his power and reclaimed his throne...

Wouldn't the media hype him up to the heavens?

"I really am the Chosen One!"

That day, while enjoying the comments online, Su Feng silently exclaimed.

Of course, while enjoying what he already had and looking forward to what was to come...

What was most important to Su Feng next was the World Championship semi-final and how to stage a triumphant return in the NBA next season.

On the evening of the 30th, at Conseco Fieldhouse, Ginobili and Bodiroga, two superstar players from the European leagues, jointly presented a classic match for the fans watching on television.

If Su Feng remembered correctly...

In the original 2002 World Championship, Ginobili was injured in the quarter-finals, so he missed the final against Yugoslavia.

But even so, in the final, Argentina once pushed Yugoslavia to the brink of despair through their teamwork.

And in this life, with the two teams fighting for the last glory of Yugoslavia and the hope of Argentine basketball...

In Su Feng's own words...

This was definitely the highest quality FIBA game he had ever seen outside of the American team.

After fighting through double overtime, Bodiroga, who was cramping in the game...

Used a floater at the last moment to make "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" resonate in Buenos Aires, thousands of kilometers away.

And with that, the road to the peak for the Chinese men's basketball team was flattened by Su Feng's future demon blade.

According to the schedule, on September 1st, the Chinese men's basketball team would face Yugoslavia in the semi-final.

And as long as Su Feng and the Chinese men's basketball team he led could live up to the assist that Ginobili personally delivered...

Then the door to the World Championship final would appear before the Chinese men's basketball team!

…

September 1st, 2002, was a very special day for the vast number of Chinese basketball enthusiasts.

However, as a miserable student...

Even though it was a Sunday...

Before finishing his homework...

Wang Sen knew that he would never get the right to watch TV from the head of the household.

However...

Just as Wang Sen was imagining Feng leading the Chinese men's basketball team to continue their rampage in the World Championship...

Knock, knock, knock!

"Hurry, hurry, your mother has been sent to buy groceries by me!"

His old father, whose status in the family was even lower than his, opened his door like a savior.

"Dad! You really are my real dad!"

After giving his old father a grateful look, Wang Sen excitedly rushed out of his bedroom.

And his old father, who was following behind him, smiled and said, "Nonsense, if I'm not your real dad, who is?"

"But Dad, won't Mom suddenly come back?" Looking at the Zhang guiding who was already doing the pre-game preview in front of the TV, Wang Sen cautiously asked.

"Come back? She... so what if she comes back? I'm the head of this household!

It's true that children should study hard, but this is a historic moment for Chinese basketball!

What if next year when you take the college entrance exam, you get a question about the Chinese men's basketball team winning the championship, how are you going to write it?" Wang Ba replied with a confident tone.

And now, Wang Sen could finally rest assured.

Because later...

Even if he was forced to kneel on the washboard, he wouldn't be alone.

Compared to Wang Sen, Huang Yunlei was one of the lucky ones of this era.

Because studying abroad in America, he not only bought tickets to this game, but just now...

He had personally witnessed the Chinese men's basketball team getting off the bus!

"Yao Ming is really tall!"

In a foreign country, listening to the familiar language that popped up in the crowd, Huang Yunlei immediately smiled.

When he was a child, Huang Yunlei had heard his elders excitedly describe the story of the Chinese women's volleyball team's triumph in Los Angeles in 1984 more than once.

And now, as an adult, Huang Yunlei could finally understand the feelings of his elders back then.

"It must be very lively at home right now?"

Huang Yunlei thought as he went through security.

"China Central Television! China Central Television!"

And in front of the TV, as Sun Zhengping's broadcast voice spread throughout the homes of the Rabbit family...

Only by being in this place could you truly understand what this Men's Basketball World Championship semi-final meant to the Rabbits.

Compared to the past, this was a slightly different morning in the Rabbit's house.

And on the court, even though they were thousands of kilometers apart...

Su Feng could feel the enthusiasm conveyed by hundreds of millions of Chinese fans.

Also, he didn't know who started it...

In the center of the court, just as the players from China and Yugoslavia were preparing to start the game...

A melody that Su Feng and others were all too familiar with instantly filled the Chinese men's basketball team with morale.

"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, the five-star red flag, I am proud of you~"

In his previous life, as a fan, Su Feng had imagined countless times that he could transform into the savior of the Chinese men's basketball team and fight alongside Yao Ming.

And now, when the young Yao and he looked at each other...

At this moment, what Su Feng wanted to thank the most was perhaps the mysterious force that had brought him back to 1994.

"The game begins! Yao Ming jumps for the Chinese men's basketball team's first attack!"

Whoosh—!

On the court, after taking a deep breath, Su Feng, Wang Zhizhi, and Hu Weidong crossed the half-court together.

Guo Shiqiang was responsible for dribbling and organizing at the high post.

On the Yugoslavian side, as the number one strong team in the world of basketball outside of the American team during this period, they continued their starting lineup from the game against Argentina tonight.

Divac, Radmanovic, Peja, Bodiroga, Jaric.

If it weren't for the impact of the country's impending split...

Without exaggeration, in the rules of FIBA, even if the American team sent out their strongest lineup, this Yugoslavian team would have to be wary.

And as Su Feng's number one follower on the Raptors...

Jaric almost completed a steal against Guo Shiqiang directly at the high post.

In his previous life, many Chinese fans liked to criticize Liu Wei.

But in reality...

With those European guards whose height was generally close to two meters, if you really replaced them with Hu Xuefeng, then I'm afraid Hu Xuefeng would find it difficult to even breathe on the court.

Perhaps in terms of absolute height, the Chinese men's basketball team had always been in a leading position in the world of basketball.

But in terms of the average height and strength of the outside players...

The Chinese men's basketball team had a big gap compared to these world powerhouses.

Fortunately, Su Feng appeared on Guo Shiqiang's side at the first time, allowing Old Guo to successfully avoid being humiliated at the start.

At this time, Bodiroga also stuck to Su Feng at the first time.

Bodiroga, who was 205 centimeters tall, could play point guard, shooting guard, and occasionally small forward and power forward on the court.

And although he was nicknamed "European Magic" and had never landed in the NBA, Su Feng, who had watched FIBA games during this period, knew...

This guy's strength was definitely well-deserved.

After the start, facing the Yugoslavian zone defense, Wang Zhizhi took the lead in pulling to the free-throw line to act as a facilitator.

And after ending a brief human observation of Bodiroga, Su Feng also handed the ball over to Wang Zhizhi, who would play a high-low combination with Yao Ming.

In Su Feng's previous life, Divac faded out of the NBA not long after Yao Ming landed in the NBA, so the two only had 9 encounters.

But, as one of the opponents that Little Yao had never been afraid of since his childhood, Divac couldn't handle Little Yao's weight, which had increased to 135 kilograms at this time.

Clang!

Clang!

There were no fancy skills.

After pushing twice in a row, Yao Ming used a backward turn to open the scoring account for the Chinese men's basketball team first.

And in front of the TV, thousands of households of the Rabbit family also shouted "Good ball"!

2 to 0.

Back, Yugoslavia attacked.

Because this Yugoslavian team could shoot three-pointers from the one to five positions, and Divac's facilitation ability was still his unique skill for survival on the court, the Chinese men's basketball team was guarding man-to-man instead of zone defense tonight.

As a result...

Jaric, the Raptors' water fountain administrator in the memory of Chinese fans, started his ravage of "Guo Ailun's uncle" at the high post in this way.

No...

This guy named Jaric...

Wasn't he usually someone we opened a meeting to criticize?

But when he was playing against Guo Shiqiang, how did he feel more Chamberlain than Chamberlain?

Hey, wake up.

Don't take the players who watch the water fountain in the NBA for granted.

In this world, being able to play in the NBA is already a very impressive thing.

And what's more, the ones who usually compete with Jaric for playing time are Nash and Parker, two big guys among the point guards?

Swish!

On the court, Guo Shiqiang failed to wait for Su Feng's help defense, and Jaric hit a dry shot after topping him at the high post.

2 to 2.

After Jaric scored this goal, Zhang Bin, the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, quickly reacted on the sidelines.

Zhang Jinsong had been called to the technical table by him.

"Whoa, is he going to replace Guo Shiqiang directly? But after Guo Shiqiang goes down, who will play point guard?" On CCTV, Zhang guiding asked curiously.

And on the court, soon, the Chinese men's basketball team gave Zhang Bin the answer.

After Wang Zhizhi tricked Radmanovic into a foul, Guo Shiqiang went down and Zhang Jinsong came on.

And Su Feng switched to the point guard position.

Don't look at Su Feng often being humiliated by the system that he was a "talentless dribbler", but in reality, with his current dribbling ability as high as 88...

Among the NBA's small forwards, he was also a top player, okay?

It's just that the strict system often likes to compare him with Iverson, McGrady, and others.

As for how the Chinese men's basketball team's offense would be organized after Su Feng played point guard?

Then...

Of course, it was to put up four fingers and patiently crack the zone defense.

At the high post, after receiving the ball, Wang Zhizhi faked a pass and really shot, but unfortunately, although he tricked Radmanovic, the basketball hit the rim and went out.

And back, Yugoslavia's offense also made a mistake.

As a team very good at playing pass and cut...

Yugoslavia obviously wanted to pass the ball directly into the basket.

And facing this kind of "Barca behavior" from Yugoslavia, Su Feng directly slid and used his long arms to intercept the ball.

However, Su Feng's first attack at the start also failed to hit the target.

His chasing dry shot hit the neck of the basket and was picked up by Bodiroga, who was retreating to defend.

And as soon as he said it, Bodiroga, after using two behind-the-back dribbles to shake off Su Feng, who was rushing forward, and Zhang Jinsong, who wanted to foul in advance...

He broke into the hinterland of the Chinese men's basketball team, and he actually glanced at Jaric, who was fast-breaking with him, with the corner of his eye while switching hands in the air.

This was a freehand no-look pass.

And on the scene, the American commentator also said with emotion: "It's a pity that Dejan Bodiroga didn't join the NBA!"

A height of more than 2 meters, an excellent technical foundation, and coordination that didn't belong to this height.

And also the imagination when playing.

Dejan Bodiroga.

The most outstanding player in the European league before Ginobili conquered Europe.

In addition, before he went bald, he was the most popular man in Yugoslavia due to his handsome appearance, without exception.

"We all know that in the NBA, Su has always been known for being good at playing Answer.Ball.

Now, the 'magician' from Europe has launched a challenge to him, the 'king' from the NBA.

And how will Su respond?"

Since the American men's basketball team was eliminated, the Chinese men's basketball team naturally became the most watched team by American fans because of Su Feng's influence in the NBA.

However, at Conseco Fieldhouse, after dribbling past the half-court, facing Bodiroga's high-quality defense, Su Feng was the calmest player on the court at this time.

After noticing that Yao Ming had fallen to the low post, Su Feng decisively threw the ball directly to the basket.

Divac failed to go around, and Little Yao turned around under the basket and scored.

4 to 4.

And in front of the TV, after seeing this scene, Kobe always felt that this was not the Su Feng in his memory!

Oh my god!

Su Feng would actually choose to pass the ball to his teammates after being shown up?

No...

Where was that Toronto "tumor Su"?

And aside, McGrady also felt that today's Su Feng was a little different from usual.

Because if it were in normal times...

Not to mention that there was a Bodiroga in front of him.

Even if you put Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman in front of Su Feng, he would definitely choose to one-vs-three.

"It seems that Su has indeed been influenced by me, the 'Phoenix Magician'." At this moment, McGrady said very modestly.

Kobe: "???"

On the court, the game continued.

In the first quarter, the physical confrontation between the two teams was very intense, and under the rules of FIBA, as long as you didn't use your hands indiscriminately, such physical confrontation was allowed.

As a result, under the high-intensity confrontation, Zhang Jinsong, who came on as a substitute for Guo Shiqiang, obviously showed technical movements deformation when shooting.

In comparison, Hu Weidong, Wang Zhizhi, and Yao Ming were as strong as ever.

In addition, in the first quarter, Su Feng, who played as point guard, also fulfilled his heavy responsibility of organizing.

Because after Yugoslavia tried two full-court presses in the second half of the first quarter, without thinking, they obediently guarded back to the zone defense.

"I really am the strongest organizing point guard in the NBA."

After getting 3 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in the first quarter, looking at the score of 23 to 22 on the court, Su Feng silently exclaimed.

No, no matter how fancy Bodiroga played, didn't he also have 4 assists?

And, organizing the offense, it's not about who plays it more fancy!

Although from the perspective of the perception, Su Feng's organization was just to hand the ball over to Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Hu Weidong after passing the half-court.

But from the perspective of the actual effect, would you dare to say that Su Feng's organization ability wasn't stronger than my turtle?

As the saying goes, the road to simplicity!

At least tonight, after the end of the first quarter, the Chinese men's basketball team didn't even have a single turnover!

And, wasn't this Su Feng's credit?

"Tracy, am I having an illusion?

Why do I always feel that the guard from Yugoslavia tonight is one dimension stronger than Su?" In front of the TV, Kobe couldn't help but complain.

"No, this is not your illusion." And aside, McGrady rarely reached a consensus with Kobe.

On the court, in the second quarter, the Chinese men's basketball team partnered with Ba Teer, Liu Yudong, Zhu Fangyu, Su Feng, and Hu Weidong.

On the Yugoslavian side, Predrag Drobnjak, who played for the Supersonics, replaced Divac.

Drobnjak, who was 211 centimeters tall and weighed 122 kilograms, was able to contribute 6.6 points and 3.5 rebounds per game in the 2001/02 season.

Having a good three point shot but an average movement speed, he was exactly the kind of opponent that Ba Teer liked to play against.

It had to be said that the Chinese men's basketball team's family background in 2002 was indeed not ordinary.

Because often when the opponent pulled out a center from the NBA, the Chinese men's basketball team could also pull out an opponent of the same level.

However, the key to deciding the outcome of this game was not the two teams' inside line.

But it was Su Feng, the MVP from the NBA, and Bodiroga, the "magician" from Europe.

In the second quarter, Bodiroga gave Su Feng a surprise as soon as he came on the court.

Because just as Su Feng used his body to resist Bodiroga's breakthrough route, Bodiroga suddenly used his left hand to flick the basketball to the other side!

And for this move that Bodiroga used...

Even if you burned Su Feng to ashes, he wouldn't forget it.

Because this move was exactly the passing skill that he, Kobe, and Sam God together created in New York...

————“shammgod”!

In the past two years, with the development of the Internet, and more and more European players landing in the NBA, after exchanging with each other, "shammgod" had long become a stunt that Bodiroga often performed for fans in the European arena.

23 to 24.

After breaking through Su Feng's defense, Bodiroga got his personal 4th point tonight.

And now, in front of the TV, Kobe suddenly regretted a little that he didn't play for the American team in this World Championship.

Like Su Feng.

Whenever there was a strong enemy on the court, Kobe would always feel particularly excited.

And on the court, for Bodiroga's behavior of turning "shammgod" into his own label...

How could Su Feng bear it?

What a joke!

In this life, his Chris Paul's "shammgod"...

Was something that he taught him hand-in-hand when he came to Toronto last year!

As a unique skill that he created with his friends back then, just him, Bodiroga, also wanted to take "shammgod" as his own?

On the court, just when people were still reminiscing about Bodiroga's gorgeous breakthrough just now...

With the cover of Da Ba, Su Feng, who started at full speed, actually used his right hand to flick the ball to the other side without slowing down!

And at this time, Bodiroga, who had been following behind Su Feng on the side, also showed a terrified expression.

Because, what amazing knees this was!

Swish—!

25 to 24!

On the court, after scoring the first two points of the second quarter for the Chinese men's basketball team with a dry shot after a "shammgod", looking at Bodiroga, Su Feng said one word at a time:

"I am not a person who likes to show off my skills.

However, when you used 'shammgod', did you pay me the copyright fee?"

And hearing this...

Looking at Su Feng's murderous face, Bodiroga always felt that this Su Feng was very different from the Su Feng that Jaric usually bragged about.

No...

When did "shammgod" become your Su Feng's original unique skill?

Although when learning this move, Bodiroga didn't investigate who created this skill...

But he could be 100% sure that this move was definitely not created by Su Feng.

However, just when Bodiroga felt confused, Jaric kindly reminded him on the side:

"Dejan, don't use this move in front of Su again, you know, the last one who used this move against him in the NBA...

Now has been rated as the fifth shooting guard in the NBA by ESPN."

"Are you talking about Kobe?" Bodiroga asked curiously.

"Of course... I had heard people mention it when I entered the NBA.

It seems that the move you just used was taught to Kobe by Su back then." Jaric said to Bodiroga.

Ah this!

So you really are the creator of "shammgod"!

At this moment, looking at Su Feng, Bodiroga couldn't help but admire him even more.

Because in his opinion, the player who could create this kind of skill was definitely extraordinary in his imagination.

But...

It was just that Su Feng was also too stingy, right?

Because it was just using the unique move you invented?

If we follow Su Feng's logic, then wouldn't all the players on the basketball court who could shoot have to pay the person who invented the shooting before they could use it?

On the court, with respect for Su Feng, and with incomprehension of why Su Feng was so stingy, Bodiroga dribbled through the half-court.

And in the first half of the second quarter, the Chinese team's substitute forwards were obviously not as good as the main lineup in defense.

On the court, at this time, Liu Yudong, the "God of War" whose feet were full of steel nails, was repeatedly back-attacked by Radmanovic when defending.

In Su Feng's previous life, as one of the few Lakers players who could enjoy the right to breathe around Kobe, Radmanovic was not just a spot-up shooter in the rules of FIBA.

In fact, his various skills were very comprehensive.

It was just that he couldn't use it in the intensity of the NBA game.

In addition, Zhu Fangyu was still a little too young at present.

Therefore, Peja, whose voice was not loud in the first quarter, also quickly used his three-pointers to stop the Chinese men's basketball team.

At this time, on CCTV, Zhang guiding said with emotion: "In the past, we always said how Korean team's shooters were.

But when you compare them with these players who play in the NBA, can those Korean team's shooters still be called shooters?"

During the timeout, looking at Zhu Fangyu's dejected face, Su Feng also encouraged him: "See, this is the shooting stability of the top shooters in the NBA.

Even if you bump him off balance at the moment he shoots, his shooting form will not change in any way.

Work hard, Little Zhu, you have a long way to go in the future!"

And hearing this, looking at Su Feng, after nodding obediently, on this day, in his heart, he also had a small goal.

That was, at least in the future games of the Chinese men's basketball team, he also wanted to become a killer like Peja who could draw his gun quickly.

In the second half of the second quarter, the Chinese men's basketball team, which had regained its main lineup, began their journey of burying the hole that they had dug in the first half of the second quarter.

Yugoslavia's overall strength was indeed strong.

Especially their cooperation, which was a beautiful scenery in the world of basketball during this period.

The only pity was that this World Championship was the swan song of this Yugoslavian team.

Otherwise in the future...

God knew how many geniuses appeared from this treasure land of Yugoslavia, and...

Beautiful girls.

Swish——!

On the court, after Yao Ming returned, through a pick-and-roll, Su Feng directly pulled out a three-pointer for the men's basketball team at the top of the arc.

And in return, Yugoslavia used Peja to return a three-pointer under Bodiroga's needle and thread.

Under this ebb and flow, knowing that there was no way to quickly catch up, Su Feng decisively instructed the men's basketball players on the court to guard the full-court press.

Let him defend Bodiroga the entire court.

And at this time, Bodiroga also felt for the first time the defensive intensity that he had never felt in Europe.

However, the more he played, the more excited he became, but in one dribble across the half-court, he suddenly used his right hand to grab the basketball with full of imagination, and then swung it from behind him to the wing!

Su Feng: ".......”

Kobe: ".......”

What the hell!

What kind of magical imagination was this!

You guys from Yugoslavia, you all practiced holding the ball with both hands to break the press every day, right?

"Kobe definitely won't be able to learn this ball."

After complaining about Bodiroga's imaginative pass this time, Su Feng didn't forget to complain about his friend Kobe.

At Conseco Fieldhouse, after the half-time break, the Chinese men's basketball team failed to continue their strong performance in the first quarter and entered the third quarter with a score of 39 to 46 behind.

And after the mid-game break, Yugoslavia was obviously affected by the double overtime they had played against Argentina before.

On the court, as soon as the game started, Su Feng completed a cutout steal against Bodiroga!

Bodiroga, who had never seen a cut-ball with such a fast hand speed in Europe, hurriedly chased back, but just when he was about to catch up with Su Feng, who would have thought...

Su Feng actually slowed down deliberately to wait for him!

Bodiroga didn't dare to foul, so he could only watch Su Feng complete a... in front of him.

"No-look layup".

emmmm.

Originally, Su Feng wanted to show off his "no-look pass", but because the other players of the Chinese men's basketball team couldn't keep up with his fast-break speed, after actively slowing down and awkwardly circling the ball, Su Feng had to put the ball into the basket.

See, what is MVP-level on-the-spot reaction?

If it weren't for his quick reaction just now, Su Feng would have become the clown!

And on the court...

Affected by the decline in physical strength, Yugoslavia had many pass-cut errors in this quarter.

And at this time, I had to mention the relatively simple tactics board of the Chinese men's basketball team.

Because when your physical strength declined, you still wanted to pass the ball into the basket...

This was no different from courting death.

In Su Feng's opinion, maybe Bodiroga would become a star player after landing in the NBA, but it was difficult for him to grow into an MVP-level player like Doncic in the future.

Because this guy...

Didn't have enough killing intent on the court.

Bang!

No, after observing him for a whole three quarters, even if he used Kobe's little hands to think, Su Feng could guess that Bodiroga would choose to pass the ball 70% of the time when attacking.

On the court, after stealing Bodiroga's pass to his teammates from behind again, Su Feng was too lazy to show his talent in passing this time.

And now...

Radmanovic, who was the fastest to retreat to defend, was in trouble.

Because looking at the position where Su Feng took off...

Even if he was still a rookie in the NBA at this time...

He also knew...

He was going to be the background board.

"Is he still human!?"

On the court, looking at the distance Su Feng jumped from the side, Bodiroga's chin had dropped to the ground.

And the next second...

The nearly 20,000 fans at Conseco Fieldhouse...

Had already knelt down to Su Feng.

"Two years ago, in Sydney, he leaped over Paris, leaped over the Eiffel Tower!

And two years later, in Indianapolis, he leaped over Belgrade!!"

On the commentary table, the French commentator exclaimed!

After Su Feng scored this goal for the Chinese men's basketball team with an air walk similar to Jordan's back then, Yugoslavia's head coach hurriedly requested a timeout.

Because after the wave of attacks launched by the Chinese men's basketball team in the third quarter, Yugoslavia had changed from being the leading side to the losing side.

After the timeout, Bodiroga adjusted his play style.

On the wing, after shaking off Su Feng with a smooth behind-the-back dribble, Bodiroga scored two points for Yugoslavia.

56 to 57.

And in return, the Chinese men's basketball team attacked.

Facing Yugoslavia's full-court defense, looking at Jaric, who intended to plot against him, Su Feng also showed the results of his cultivation this summer!

After getting the bonus of "Feng's Breakthrough", without slowing down, he actually pulled Jaric down with a Crossover!

And then, on the outside, Su Feng immediately threw out a three-pointer!

59 to 57!

On the commentary table, the American commentator said in Kenny Smith's tone: "Go home! Go home, everyone! Ladies and gentlemen!

God, has descended on Conseco Fieldhouse!"

On the court, it was Yugoslavia's turn to attack.

Bodiroga changed to low-post back attack this ball.

And although he failed to top Su Feng at the first time, he still used his flexible small steps to drill into the inside and scored the ball.

59 all!

Whoa! Good guy!

Were they comparing back attacks?

On the court, the Chinese men's basketball team had the ball.

Su Feng directly asked Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi to go to the baseline and let him out of the low post.

And just when Yugoslavia's wing was preparing to double-team Su Feng here, the next second, Su Feng abruptly topped Bodiroga, and relying on his hang time ability, he completed a one-handed layup in front of Divac!

"Magician"?

Sorry...

In the NBA, Su Feng had already played against various versions of the Magician!

If Bodiroga showed his unparalleled skills on this night.

Then he, Su Feng, used his strength to interpret why he was the number one outside player in the current league.

On the court, Bodiroga also had a mid-range shot after faking Su Feng with a fake action at the baseline.

61 all!

And as soon as he came back, Su Feng squeezed away Bodiroga again in the low post, and used almost the same way as just now, he forcibly put the ball into the basket in front of Divac.

In his previous life, what the Chinese men's basketball team lacked the most was this kind of outside star who could take over the burden from Yao Ming at critical moments.

And in this life...

What the Chinese men's basketball team got was not just an outside star who could share the pressure for Yao Ming...

"Feng's thighs, sure enough, are the thickest thighs in this world!"

In the third quarter, watching Su Feng, who was suppressing Bodiroga tightly, Yao Ming thought with a silly smile on his face.

In the end, due to lack of physical strength, in the fourth quarter, after Bodiroga and other main players cramped again, relying on Su Feng and Yao Ming's back-and-forth one-on-one, the Chinese men's basketball team simply and rudely won this key semi-final!

The final score of the game was 90 to 83.

Su Feng scored the highest 37 points
