Chapter 677 The end of the season

After Stephen was kicked off the field, the Sonics lacked a leader and fell into a leaderless situation. Although they were still in the lead, they were quickly overtaken by the Spurs and maintained until the official end of the game. In the fourth quarter, the Supersonics The Sonics scored a total of [-] points, and half of them were scored when Stephen was not off the court. In other words, after Stephen left, the Sonics only scored [-] points in most of the quarter.

On the other hand, the Spurs, after losing Manu Ginobili and Bruce Bowen, Duncan and Tony Parker led the team to continue to play impressively. 32 points were scored, and this was when the last 2 minutes turned into garbage time.

Stephen sat in the visiting team's locker room, ignored Coupard and Wilcox next to him, and watched the game expressionlessly through the TV in the locker room. He wanted to keep this defeat in his heart forever. This is the first time I have been eliminated after entering the league, and it was eliminated by the old owner Spurs in such a disgraceful way.

Stephen secretly swore in his heart that such a fate would never be allowed to happen to him in the future, and his team would never be eliminated so easily, no matter what method the opponent used, he would win .

Losing this game means the end of the season for the Sonics. Although for a team that has just begun to rebuild, reaching the semifinals is definitely not a shameful thing, but in Stephen's view, this is absolutely unacceptable.

He is used to enjoying success, but the team he owns now cannot bring him success. The Supersonic team is too weak. Even without these accidents, Stephen felt that it would be difficult to beat the Spurs. His own performance today The state is not good, and it is impossible to explode like the last game, so in the end, the Spurs must have the advantage.

Stephen believes that ** Weiqi will not fail to see this point. The reason why he used this disgraceful method is to reduce risks on the one hand, and to save energy on the other hand, but because of this, he must use this method. The shameful means of driving the Sonics out of the playoffs is really unacceptable to Stephen.

Losing, I blame my lack of strength, but under the premise of having the advantage of strength, if I still frame people like this, then I can only use unscrupulous means to describe it. At this time, Stephen hates Vicki and the Spurs to the extreme. I have never hated a team or a person so much. I must look good for the Spurs in the future. As long as you are in the Western Conference for one day, you will never get to the finals.

The Supersonics had too few strong players, so after Wilcox and Coupard were expelled, Stephen went crazy to attack, but even if there were no subsequent events, Stephen would not be able to continue like this , and the referee will not allow Stephen to keep doing this, so even in the end, the Sonics' defeat is still inevitable.

After everyone returned to the locker room, they simply tidied up and left. Everyone was silent. Even if they had to speak, they used the smallest voice possible. Failure made everyone lose interest. Even the most playful, dare not speak in this situation.

No one's mood will be so good. If you lose the game, you will be inferior to others. If you lose, you will lose. But if you lose the game in this way, no one will be reconciled, but no matter how unwilling you are, you can't change it. As a result, on the bus, Stephen received a text message from Duncan, and Stephen deleted it without even opening it.

There was no sound in the bus, and the atmosphere was so dull that it was about to drip water. Carlesimo turned his head to look, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. I dare not say anything more.

After getting off the bus and boarding the plane, the gloomy atmosphere remained unchanged, but at this time some people had already put on headphones and listened to music, while others played games, but the sound was turned down to a very low level, Stephen still He sat there expressionlessly, with a look on his face that strangers should not get close to.

Everyone can see that Stephen is like a volcano that is about to erupt, and no one will bother him. Although Robert Horry intends to comfort Stephen, looking at Stephen's appearance, he still doesn't Dare to speak, there is no way, as Stephen's achievements become more and more astonishing, the aura of majesty on his body is getting stronger and stronger, even Robert Horry dare not treat him like before.

It was more than one o'clock in the morning when we returned to Seattle. There was no farewell. We simply said hello to each other and left. It was the same as returning from an away game. But for many people, the end of the season meant that the Supersonics At the end of the team days, the team may renew their contracts to keep them. If they don't stay, they will be opponents bye bye.

For those fringe players on the team, from now on, they are already out of work, and it is hard to say whether they can find another job. Naturally, they will not be affected by the emotion of failure, and some of them have already arranged Some are on vacation, some have arranged training to improve themselves, and some want to spend more time with their families, the team?What does it have to do with myself.

Because they did not make a big contribution to the team's success, the team's achievements have nothing to do with them. Correspondingly, they don't care about the team's honor or disgrace. Every team has such players. Not uncommon.

This is not the case for the main players in the regular rotation lineup. They worked hard for a season, but in the end they came to such a result. relieved.

"I'm sorry..." Before leaving, Coupard walked up to Stephen and said. He knew how high Stephen's expectations were, and he also knew how much Stephen had feelings for the team. When something like this happened, he knew that Stephen was saddest.

"I don't blame you. You did a good job. It's okay. We failed this season. Let's come back next season. It's not just this season. We're still young." Stephen patted Coupard on the shoulder. It really can't be blamed on Coupard, seeing Coupard's appearance, he said this out of fear of being sad.

Stephen knew that he needed such a Coupard very much, and he dared to rush forward to help him get ahead when encountering troubles. If the Spurs hadn't been prepared today, they would have taken down Wilcox and Coupard at once. One, and happened to hurt Durant at the same time, so I wouldn't be so impulsive.

Even if it's all about Coupard, the team still has hope of winning, and I won't break the pot and make other things happen later, so this matter really has nothing to do with Coupard.

"Okay, let's try to meet the Spurs again next season, and we must teach them a lesson." Coppard saw that Stephen's mood had returned to normal, and he felt relieved. The two chatted for a few more words , they each left the team.

Back at his own home, Stephen vented his anger in the fitness room before lying on the bed, and quickly fell asleep through fatigue.

After a night of nothing, when he woke up the next day, Stephen had already received a notification from the team. Firstly, he was notified that the Sonics had already been eliminated, and this incident was indeed done by the Spurs behind. Ghost, so the league finally decided to maintain the penalty on the field, and did not add new suspensions to Stephen, Wilcox and Coupard, otherwise the suspension will continue until next season.

Secondly, Chris Hansen has completed all the transaction procedures. Starting today, the team belongs to Chris Hansen's investment team and Steve Ballmer, so the team will hold a press conference in the afternoon. Yes, Stephen needs to attend the press conference as a player representative.

Not banning the game basically has no effect on the team. Even if it is banned for one or two games, since the team has already been eliminated, the punishment will continue to the regular season of the next season. Two games is not good news for the Spurs.

Ginobili and Bruce Bowen's injuries are fine. Although Stephen was extremely angry at the time, he also kept his sense of proportion. After all, they are teammates from the past. They have been fighting together for two seasons. They are ruthless, but Stephen Will not be unjust.

As rumors of Chris Hansen's successful acquisition had already spread, the press conference in the afternoon did not cause any sensation. After deciding to sell the team, Bennett left Seattle, and all matters were handled by his lawyer. responsible for processing.

Seeing Chris Hansen again, Chris Hansen expressed the same hatred and hatred with Stephen. Now that the team belongs to him, everything the team has suffered is naturally related to him, but if it wasn't for the team so early Even if they are eliminated, the procedures may not be completed so quickly.

You must know that there are bonuses in the playoffs, and every time there is an additional game, there will be income from one game, tickets and related merchandise sales, etc. This is a considerable amount of income. Now that they are eliminated, everything will end Now, many entanglements are no longer necessary, and Bennett's handover was completed happily.

As the controller of this investment team, Chris Hansen, because he has other businesses, it is impossible to use all his energy on the team, and it is even more impossible for Steve Ballmer, who is the largest shareholder , so the team's daily affairs were fully entrusted to Presti, but an administrative assistant was left to assist Presti in his work.

In fact, it means a disguised supervision, but this is also very normal. The team belongs to others, and they have no time to manage it. Naturally, they have to send a reassuring person to watch over it, but this person surprised Stephen. It turned out to be Fei Li. Etta Martin. <With a blooming smiling face, Stephen has an inexplicable feeling that it should be a good thing, thinking that when he first came to this team, the non-team personnel he met was her. Now that the season is over, she Becoming a part of the team, and thinking of the dewy love between the two, Stephen couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts.
