NBA: I'm really the Chosen One

Chapter 214 Happy
The only tacit understanding between Stoudemire and Li Zheng is that the king does not see the king. No matter how difficult the situation is, Li Zheng and Stoudemire have never formally faced each other. Of course Stoudemire has been helping and interfering with Li Zheng, and Li Zheng is also ready to nail it at any time. Big hat to Stoudemire, but the fact is that they have never officially matched up.

Stoudemire can play as a small forward, and so can Li Zheng. They are not completely without the possibility of matchups, but the fans reacted only after they were excited. They failed to see the matchup that they were most looking forward to before the game. A clash of kings.

Sun locker room.

"It's not the time yet." Stoudemire wiped his sweat with a towel. Nash nodded. Adelaide couldn't stop Stoudemire no matter who came up.

Unlike last year's series where Duncan averaged 35+ per game, this year Stoudemire has a feeling of ease, as if he can score those points no matter who the opponent is. This year, this feeling is only in Li Zheng I have seen it before, and James, who played against Li Zheng, also gave people this feeling.

"You can't bear this kind of beating." Hill looked at the tired Stoudemire and said unbearably. He used to be a player who flew into the sky and escaped from the ground. Will let these talented players go, Hill looked at the desperate Stoudemire and felt a sigh of relief.

"Thanks, Grant, thank you for your concern." Stoudemire replied with a smile, and Hill didn't say much, just patted him on the shoulder to make him take care.

"Grant is kind. The injury is terrible." Nash was afraid that Stoudemire would think too much, and quickly comforted him. Sometimes the old man's advice is tantamount to an offense to young people, but Stoudemire has obviously matured a lot. He shook his head and didn't say much. , Li Zheng's agent led him to invest, and taught him how to manage money and make money. The investment in Silicon Valley and those stocks have made him look down on the small money of the alliance.

To be honest, his current mood is really the same as that of Li Zheng. Basketball is more like a part of their life, money, pension, honor, and even status. Stoudemire is not so concerned about these mundane things. Go further in basketball.

"It's okay, he's doing it for my own good, I know it." Of course, Stoudemire would not express his thoughts like Nash. His thoughts are simply an evil way for current players. Everyone who enters the league is warned not to Too much work, you have to train hard, but you have to protect your career on the court and extend your career.

This is of course true, but Stoudemire has passed the stage of needing to use basketball to make a living. He doesn't need to think about whether he can play the ball when he is 40 years old. At that time, he has become the CEO of an Internet company and some famous people The shareholders of Minghao Company enjoy life every day, so now Stoudemire has no reason or excuse to back down.

69:68.

The Blazers temporarily lead by 1 point, but everyone knows that for these two teams, a 1-point lead is meaningless.

Grant Hill came in front of Li Zheng, Li Zheng frowned slightly, not because the sun used Hill to defend himself, it was a little underestimated, Hill was old and strong, and under the care of the sun doctor, he had recovered seven points of his youthful strength, not to mention The strategy of the Suns to defend Li Zheng was a two-man teamwork, one chasing and defending while the other besieged. Hill just changed from chasing and defending his own player. The guy who really besieged him was Stoudemire or Barbosa.

O'Neal played very silently today. The two high walls of Randolph and Pulzbila directly blocked the inside line. If a young shark breaks through such a block, it will take a lot of effort. After all, O'Neal is old and is catching the ball. After a few times of singles were ineffective, he decisively gave up the inside strong play, and turned to open up space for Stoudemire, becoming the second choice for inside offense.

"One thing to say, if O'Neal was willing to make such a change for Kobe, they might really be able to win two or three more championships. Today's Shaq is really extraordinary. Regardless of his statistics, he is constantly helping the ball on the court. Every team needs such a player." Barkley kept saying good things about O'Neal's performance, and O'Neal's performance today is also worthy of Barkley's praise, although O'Neal's scoring rebounds and blocks are not listed on the data sheet The numbers are not good-looking, but his role is irreplaceable.

"It's so smart. Shaq looks at his card position. Przybilla is a child in front of him. The Blazers need to pay some tuition fees inside." Barkley sighed, and O'Neal moved his butt slightly when Stoudemire attacked the frame He blocked Pulzbila's defense and used this skill of walking on the edge of the red line under the eyes of the referee to win valuable points for the Suns again.

As Barkley said, the Trail Blazers need to teach a lot of tuition, learn offensive and defensive skills from Stoudemire, and learn from O'Neal for experience. Although Randolph has also been in the league for more than ten years, his experience is far less than O'Neal's. After Stoudemire switched defenses, he even interfered with Przybilla's eating cakes at any time, completely unlike the lazy defensive state of the Lakers.

The biggest weakness of the Suns is actually Nash. The main reason is that Nash really can't defend Li Zheng. He can't use his youth as an excuse like O'Neill. Everyone knows that even if Nash is ten years younger, he can't stop him now. Li Zheng, losing Lagabel has become the most painful thing for the Suns.

The Jazz offered Lagabel a contract that the Suns could not match at all. Because of the appearance of Lee Jung James, players with excellent perimeter defense were offered premium contracts by teams that wanted to achieve results. On the contrary, those in weak teams The market for players who score points is a bit sluggish.

The fans have been blinded by the league, and only really exciting games can attract widespread attention. The audience has used the ratings to determine the future of these brushes for the league. Defensive players such as Lagabel, Kirilenko and Prince who were once not well-known have attracted the attention of fans.

The league is really changing slowly. As David Stern said, Li Zheng's coming to the league represents the beginning of a new era. Although there are constant twists and turns, they are generally on the right path.

The fourth quarter between the Trail Blazers and the Suns did not become more intense as most people expected, and none of the brawls, elbows, and criminals in fantasy occurred. The unsportsmanlike behavior did not come across players on both sides.

Perhaps the two teams that can feel the joy of basketball the most are the two teams that are fighting hard on the court. In this game, there is only one team with a low score, and there is no real loser.
