After returning to Seattle, all the players lowered their heads, looking dejected and frustrated. After all, before the start of the game, almost everyone thought that they could sweep the Phoenix Suns, and then get nearly a week of rest to prepare well Take on the challenge of the San Antonio Spurs.Welcome to read[Thanks for supporting the novel]【】

The result was a loss. Although it is still leading three to one, in this game, it can be seen that once the Suns' offense is played, the Supersonics want to beat their opponents. Such an easy thing.

In fact, even the coaching staff underestimated the opponent in this game. Carlesimo has ordered half of the staff to turn to analyze the game between the San Antonio Spurs and the Dallas Mavericks to prepare for the next round. games.

The bus back to the team was as quiet as the silent late night. Several young players were not used to the dull atmosphere. Just as they took out their earphones and wanted to put them on to listen to music, they saw Stephen standing up and walking to the center of the bus. .

"We lost this game, but it doesn't matter. We still have a chance, and there are a lot of opportunities. As long as we work hard, our destiny is in our own hands. When we return to our own home court, we must not let our fate go from us again." Slip it out of your hands, rest well tonight and let's have good dreams.[ ][]”

Stephen didn't make a long speech, and returned to his seat after only saying a paragraph, but such a short sentence eliminated the tense atmosphere in the team and allowed the teammates to come out of the frustration of losing.

In this way, those who rest can rest at ease, while those who don't want to rest pick up the earphones or discuss softly with friends around them.

"You're right. We can't keep losing in silence. We have to look forward. A loss is nothing, as long as the final victory is in our hands." Robert Horry clapped his hands as he left. said Stephen's shoulder.

Different teams, different teammates, and different personalities create different bosses. There is no fixed way to be the boss of the team. As long as you can lead the team to success, you can unite the whole team to one goal. That's fine.

Of course, this is just a rough idea. A team has fifteen players, and only five can play. There will inevitably be conflicts and dissatisfaction, but everything must have a limit, as long as it is within the normal range.

Stephen didn't say what he said today, and he went back to rest for a night, and the frustration caused by the loss would naturally disappear. No matter how weak the team is, it is normal to lose, not to mention that the Suns are not a weak team, but Stephen said These words, the effect is better. 【new】[]

Since he had just played an away game, there was no training in the morning of the second day, only two hours of training in the afternoon, but Stephen got up from the bed early in the morning, first shooting, then practicing exercises, and finally physical fitness train.

At noon, the league announced the best rookie team of the season voted by the head coaches of [-] teams. Kevin Durant was selected without any dispute. Luis Scola of the Los Angeles Clippers, Al Thornton of the Los Angeles Clippers and Navarro of the Grizzlies.

It's just a lineup, this award doesn't have much gold content, but even so, a few familiar players still blackmailed Durant severely, Durant doesn't like to talk, although he didn't respond to everyone's request, But after the training, he took the initiative to buy food for all his teammates, and then took Stephen, Coupard, and Watson to drink.

On the second day, the league distributed the winners of the best manager award of the season. This time, the Sonics won again. This award was voted by the general managers of [-] teams. Press Ti scored seven points, which means that seven peers recognized his ability.

After this award is announced, it should be the highlight of the regular season awards, and it is also the MVP of the regular season that has attracted the most attention. However, although many media and fans have already affirmed that 90.00% of this award belongs to Stephen, the league If there is no hint of cicada admitting this result, but before it is announced, there may be variables.

The announcement of this award happens to be the day after the fifth game between the Sonics and the Suns. If the Sonics can win the Suns and get this award while advancing to the semifinals, then It can be described as double happiness.

Of course, if the Sonics lose this game, it will be a bit embarrassing for Stephen to win this award again, although unlike Dirk Nowitzki last season, when he won this award, it happened to be the ball. When the team was "black eight", but it was turned [-] to [-], it was not a good thing after all.

So this game, no matter what the reason is, must be won. First of all, this is the home court of the Supersonics, and it will be a victory for the fans. At the same time, it can advance to the next round. Going to the home court of the Phoenix Suns, not to mention the risk of a tie-break, for the Sonics, there is no benefit.

In addition, now only one game has been pulled back, the Sonics still hold a three-game advantage, and the psychological pressure is still on the Suns side. They still need the courage to break the boat, but they have used this courage to overcome Passed the Sonics once, not so much the next time.

In fact, this is all about going all out, failing again, and exhausting three times. If we say that this game is lost again, although the courage of the Suns will be weakened even more, the hope of victory is closer to them, and they are likely to be transformed into The desire to win.

And once they win three games in a row and enter the tiebreaker, the Supersonics will definitely suffer. Therefore, the best time to win the Suns is this game. Competitions are taken very seriously.

Of course, the Suns also attach great importance to this game. The victory in the last game made them fully realize that if they want to beat the Supersonics, they must start from the offensive side and use frenzied attacks to defeat the Supersonics will.

Both sides chose offense as the main direction of attack, and the game was played very fiercely from the very beginning. Within 1 minute and 20 seconds of the opening, Stephen was beaten on the face by Lagabel and was forced to leave the field to deal with it. The team took this opportunity to overtake the score, but Stephen, who had dealt with the wound, returned to the field and reversed the situation.
