Silently Writing
Chapter 614 A Brilliant Era!
Speaking of which, this was Su Feng's first time participating in the NBA China Games.
Last summer, because the men's basketball team made it all the way to the final day in Athens, the China Games were postponed by a whole year compared to Su Feng's memories.
However, compared to Su Feng's memories, this year's China Games were much more lively.
Influenced by the men's basketball team winning two world championships in a row, basketball had already become the number one sport in the Rabbit House in the past two years.
On the 3rd, when the Celtics arrived in Beijing...
The young Tony Parker was shocked by the scene that appeared before him as soon as he got off the plane.
Because...
The scene was a sea of people, with gongs and drums, and firecrackers...
"I can't believe I have so many fans in China!
And unlike what I thought...
Beijing is too big... too big!"
In Su Feng's previous life, when someone deliberately courted death in the future, you could clearly find that most of the NBA stars who had been to China expressed dissatisfaction with that person.
Because having been to China, they knew very well how outrageous the American media's reports about the Rabbit House were.
Especially Harden, who had always been unpopular in the beautiful country.
When American fans frantically bombarded Harden online...
Little did they know that if he hadn't been to China, Harden would have mistakenly thought that he wasn't even a star in the NBA.
In Su Feng's previous life, some domestic keyboard warriors always thought that foreign fans knew a lot about basketball...
But in fact, the opposite was true...
American fans were even more ruthless when it came to spraying these NBA stars.
And many times, these American fans who liked to spray stars were purely spraying for the sake of spraying.
In short, these people couldn't even spray to the point when they were spraying people.
But looking back at China...
The jokes compiled on Hupu, combined with traditional Chinese culture...
Even if you gave American fans another two thousand years, they would still be three thousand years behind the Rabbit House.
For example, the "Su Feng Scolds His Subjects" that had recently become popular on Tieba, and the "Su Feng Three Beats Shark Demon" that had been popular in earlier years...
From history to mythology...
Anyway, as long as it was a subject that could be made into a joke, the domestic keyboard warriors would never disappoint you.
Cough...
Back to the topic.
On the morning of the 9th, after the Heat's team training session, unlike in previous years, the media open days for the Heat, Celtics, and Sixers were also arranged to be held in China this year.
In addition, in this year's China Games, the Eastern Big Three would also collectively wear Chinese version jerseys for PK.
For Stern, who didn't hesitate to hold videotapes and brave the cold wind outside the CCTV building to open the door to the Chinese market back then...
The Chinese market was not only the market that gave him the most feedback when he was committed to promoting the NBA to the world...
Moreover, Stern himself had an unusual feeling for the Chinese market.
In Su Feng's previous life, whether it was pretending or just for the purpose of making more money, you could clearly feel the NBA's sincerity towards the Chinese market when Stern was in power.
In simpler terms...
At least when you were making money from others, you had to do a good job of providing the supporting services.
Therefore, before heading to China this time, some players whose IQs were considered relatively worrying by the league were also given special instructions on some basic geographical knowledge.
Because in Stern's view, once these players with insufficient IQ and EQ said the wrong thing when accepting interviews from some ill-intentioned media, his previous efforts would likely be in vain.
As for freedom of speech?
Tch...
As far as Stern was concerned, what did he care about after his death?
Anyway, as long as those brain-dead people didn't come out and talk nonsense while he was in power.
In Su Feng's original timeline, Bogut was the best example.
Because this guy, who had been recognized as a "heaven-defying brother" since he entered the league, wouldn't dare to talk nonsense when Stern was in power.
Even if he wanted to vent his dissatisfaction, he would only dare to give Yao Ming three blocks in the China Derby between Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming.
However, with the end of the Stern era...
Plus, Stern's influence in the NBA was gradually declining...
You could clearly find that all kinds of demons and monsters were released overnight.
Fortunately, the "joke" was destined not to happen in this life's NBA.
Because as Stern's appointed successor, Mark also had different feelings for the Chinese market.
For example, when discussing whether it was appropriate to hold the media open day for the Eastern Big Three in China...
Because for the NBA, this was an unprecedented major event, so when the league held a routine meeting before, Mark also stated the reason why he proposed this motion.
"China has the largest basketball population in the world.
Almost all of their primary and secondary school students play basketball.
Moreover, the Chinese men's basketball team won the World Championships in 2002 and the Olympic Games in 2004.
Therefore, as the best basketball league in the world, we have the obligation and the need to carry out further promotion and publicity in this largest basketball market in the world."
Obviously, at this routine meeting, the top executives of the Heat, Celtics, and Sixers were all persuaded by Mark.
Admittedly, as a large-scale fan meeting that each NBA team would hold before the start of the new season according to convention...
Media open days were of extraordinary significance to a team's fans.
But...
With the changing times...
Overseas fans were equally important in the eyes of the league's top executives.
It was just that on this day...
When the Heat were taking core set photos...
What made the fans and reporters present feel puzzled was...
Such a big O'Neal...
Why didn't he show up at the media open day all afternoon?
There was no way around it.
Because in the NBA, it was not uncommon for players to have stomach problems before games...
So after taking the core set photos alone, facing the questions raised by reporters, Su Feng had to say, "Shaq is preparing in the background today so that he can give the fans a surprise tonight."
And upon hearing this, the reporters and fans at the scene suddenly understood.
Because in terms of O'Neal's personality...
He did seem like a player who could do such a thing.
It was just that...
This surprise thing...
Was O'Neal being too polite?
Since he was already here, why was he hiding like a young girl and afraid to see people?
"Shaq, I'm completely out of ideas.
Anyway, you can figure it out yourself tonight!
If it really doesn't work, then I can only expose you and Alonzo's embarrassing things before the game to the media."
After the media open day, looking at O'Neal, who had fallen into the toilet with Mourning and others and couldn't climb out, Su Feng said with a helpless expression.
"No, please don't!
If the fans really knew how stupid we were before the game...
Then I might as well retire!" In the toilet, after finally holding out a fart for a long time, O'Neal said quickly.
Su Feng: "..."
As the saying goes, it's better to die than to lose face.
In Su Feng's opinion, if O'Neal wasn't so concerned about face, then he could have won at least two more championships.
Not to mention...
Just say his end-of-basin free throws that he had to learn after being autistic in this life.
In Su Feng's previous life, if O'Neal really had a sense of crisis and learned the end-of-basin earlier...
Then how could he have received so many "brooms" in the playoffs?
"Then do you have any good ideas?" Su Feng asked, pinching his nose, almost suffocated by O'Neal.
"I'll lead a dance when the game starts later!" O'Neal replied from across the toilet door.
"Are you sure you can really dance later, instead of hiding in the toilet all the time?" Su Feng asked.
"I have a feeling that I should be able to recover after this poop." O'Neal said.
Beijing Shougang Basketball Gymnasium.
At 7 p.m., when the Heat and Celtics players appeared one by one, O'Neal and Mourning stunned the Chinese fans at the scene as soon as they appeared.
Because on the court, these two representatives of brutality and iron blood in the hearts of Chinese fans...
Were actually dancing awkwardly in broad daylight.
And the best thing was...
In order to bring a different kind of freshness to the fans at the scene, these two also put on red capes that they had temporarily asked the Heat staff to find.
At the scene, when O'Neal frantically shook his fat butt...
Su Feng couldn't bear to look at this scene anymore.
And on the Celtics' bench, Duncan almost died of laughter at this moment.
Fortunately, no matter how Duncan laughed tonight, he wouldn't receive a technical foul.
Because unlike ordinary preseason games, this China game was more like an exhibition game for the Heat and Celtics.
It wasn't that the players from the two teams didn't want to play well, it was just that before the game started tonight, the players from the two teams had received a request from the league's top executives hoping that they could make the scene as lively as possible.
Plus, on the Heat's side, many players were not in good physical condition, so the intensity of the game naturally couldn't be high.
In the first quarter, Su Feng played the entire quarter.
After all, he was performing in front of his hometown folks, so Su Feng's playing time tonight was also longer than when he played preseason games before.
In the second quarter, young players like Lou Wei and Illyasova, who didn't join O'Neal in the fun before, got a lot of playing time.
On CCTV, Zhang guided and commented on this, "This season, the Heat are one of the youngest teams in the NBA.
Because Louis Williams and Ersan Ilyasova successfully dragged down their average age."
Before, when Lou Wei and Payton were playing one-on-one, Payton had complained that Lou Wei looked more like his son.
In the United States, it was normal for most black people to be fathers at the age of 18.
And Payton was exactly 18 years and 3 months older than Lou Wei.
However, after receiving Su Feng's guidance in the summer, Lou Wei was obviously much improved compared to before.
Although when physical contact occurred, he would always give people the feeling that he might be knocked out of the court at any time...
But every time, he could use his skilled dribbling skills to stabilize his center of gravity.
This innate sense of the ball was one of the main reasons why Louis Williams could gallop in the NBA in Su Feng's memory.
Especially when he was at his peak...
No matter who came to defend, when he was in good shape, he could continue to score in front of you.
In Su Feng's memory, in the future, the Lakers traded Lou Wei because he delayed their tanking.
Of course...
On the defensive end, you definitely couldn't count on Lou Wei's defense.
Because in the NBA...
Lou Wei was one of the few players who could compete with Nash on defense.
And compared to Lou Wei, who was not afraid of anything when he was first born and dared to continue to throw wildly even if he missed all his shots...
Illyasova, who was playing for the Heat for the first time tonight, was obviously a little nervous.
On the court, in the first half of the second quarter alone, Illyasova had as many as 4 turnovers.
Like dribbling on the back of his foot, butterfingers when receiving the ball, illegal moving screen...
In front of the TV, watching this player who was neither fast nor good at jumping, and had no idea what he was here to do...
The Heat's loyal fans had begun to doubt their lives.
Because with this level...
Could he also play in the NBA?
"The Heat's two young players can be said to be 'Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick'.
One is too dare to play, and the other is afraid to play." On CCTV, Sun guided and dropped another classic quote while commentating on the second quarter.
And on the Heat's bench, looking at Coach Su's calm face, Spoelstra, who originally wanted to substitute these two to take a break, immediately dispelled this terrible idea.
Because Su Feng hadn't even spoken yet...
How dare Spoelstra make his own decisions?
In Su Feng's previous life, if Spoelstra revealed his inner thoughts to the media, then Su Feng would definitely be labeled as a ball hog.
But in fact, in competitive sports, for a team that wants to succeed, "ball hog" is not necessarily a derogatory term.
Because if the existence of a ball hog really affects a team's future...
Then please translate, how did Jordan stand, sit, and lie down to spray... and spray the Bulls' group of young players into autism and still establish a dynasty?
The so-called ball hog, since he can dominate, it means that he has supreme authority in this team.
And in other words...
He is the backbone of this team.
This season, through Spoelstra as a buffer between himself and Su Feng, Riley found that Su Feng was indeed very suitable to be a coach after he retired in the future.
Because Su Feng was not only very patient with young people, but also remained calm in the face of crises.
In fact, to put it bluntly...
Whether this preseason game was played in the United States or in China, it was a rare practical training opportunity for the Heat's young players.
And since it was training...
Then why bother about the result?
If you want the horse to run, you can't not feed the horse grass.
Perhaps in the short term, Lou Wei and Illyasova's help to this Heat team was limited.
But as the season deepened...
The potential and growth of young players, how could they be compared to veterans like Payton, who were constantly regressing every day?
For competitive sports...
Young is invincible.
In the second half of the second quarter, Su Feng returned to the court.
And at this time, Illyasova, Lou Wei, and Johnson were all kept on the court.
"Ersan, if you don't want to go back to Turkey to sell kebabs tomorrow, then you better show some fighting spirit.
Weren't you already open just now? Why didn't you dare to shoot?"
"Louis, remember, you are playing in the NBA now, not in high school.
Daring to shoot on the court is indeed a good thing, but with your performance just now...
Do you want your teammates to keep running back and forth with you?"
"Amir, your enthusiasm is very good.
But why do you always can't help but reach out and foul when your opponent is going to the basket?
In NBA games, you are fouled out after six fouls, has no one taught you this?"
On the court, when Su Feng returned to the game...
At the scene, in front of the TV, fans were surprised to find...
Those young players who had been constantly committing crimes on the court before had actually begun to play in a decent manner.
On the court, the Heat attacked.
Lou Wei dribbled the ball past half court and passed the ball to Su Feng, who initiated a triangle offense with Illyasova and Ginobili in the high post.
And just at the moment when the Celtics' defense was completely attracted by Su Feng...
After receiving Su Feng's pass, Illyasova finally showed the valuable value of him as a stretch four on the court.
"This is Su...
He always makes his teammates better!"
In front of the TV, countless Heat fans sighed at this moment.
"The teacher once said that no matter how many times history is repeated, he would choose to build a team around Tim rather than Su.
But I don't think so.
Because...
No matter how suitable Tim is to be the leader of a team, it is difficult for him to reach Su's current height.
Maybe Tim will become a legend when he retires in the future.
But now, Su is already a legend!" On the Celtics' bench, patting Miller Karl's shoulder, at this moment, Larry Bird said word by word.
He is already a legend!
His name is Su Feng!
The 05/06 season.
The curtain has slowly opened.
And Su Feng's new journey has also begun.
Will he continue to stand at the peak of the NBA, overlooking the league with an immortal posture...
Or will the world change and the dynasty change?
Bang—!
Beijing.
Accompanying the appearance of the scene that the Chinese fans at the scene most wanted to see.
Accompanying Su Feng's round-arm battle axe split Mount Hua during a fast break in the second half of the game.
The excitement of this era obviously exceeded people's expectations of it.
