On the 2nd, the Raptors returned to their home court to face the Suns.

Because you only need to win 8 of the remaining 10 games to break the Bulls' record of the best record that year, before the start of this game, Su Feng, as the team leader, decisively held an in-team meeting in the locker room again.

At this meeting, Su Feng emphasized that although the current situation for the Raptors is very good, as the playoffs approach, every Raptors player should "examine me three times a day."

At the same time, Su Feng pointed out that the more critical the moment, every Raptors player should be more vigilant, keep in mind the lessons of history, and never repeat the same mistakes.

In addition, at the end of the meeting, Su Feng also said that on the road to success, as long as the Raptors players can withstand the hard battles, withstand the pressure, and continue to carry forward the glorious tradition of Raptors' happy basketball, they will be the strongest team in the league, no doubt.

“Is this the leadership that must be a team leader?”

In the team's locker room, after listening to Su Feng's speech, Nash thought to himself with emotion.

On the side, Bathel always felt that Su Feng's speech sounded very familiar.

I just heard of it somewhere, but for a while, Bathel couldn't remember it.

It is worth mentioning that before the start of this match with the Suns, Carter also found Su Feng alone.

"Su, I felt great when I was warming up tonight. After the game, can I be the main attack point for tonight?" Looking at Su Feng, the person in charge of the team, Carter said sincerely.

It has to be said that after more than a year of hard work, Su Feng's image as a dominant team in this Raptors has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Because other teams are usually decided by the head coach.

However, in Toronto, Carter knew very well...

Without Su Feng nodding...

Davis is actually a mascot.

In March, because Su Feng's performance was too dazzling, Carter's role on the field was much less.

As a result, because the media considered that they could not report the good news of the Raptors indifferently, Carter became the unlucky guy who was frantically criticized by the media.

In addition, in late March, Carter failed to score in double digits in three consecutive games, so for a while, many media described Carter as a useless iron gangster who was useless except for dunks.

Ha, do you say Carter had a large triple-double when he played against the Nets before?

Oh...

As the saying goes, there is no retribution for the crime you want to add.

As long as the media wants to pick on the tricks and set the pace, even if Carter performed well before, they can selectively forget.

Therefore, the young and energetic Carter became anxious.

He was broken by the media and wanted to use practical actions to hit those who said he was not good in the face before the end of the regular season.

As for Carter's anxiety, Su Feng naturally saw it and enjoyed it...

Oh, it hurts in my heart!

Because he thought about the time when he also attacked Iverson in Philadelphia, he knew very well why a tool like Carter felt uncomfortable.

However, at the critical moment when the Raptors are about to usher in this final sprint...

Eh?

wrong!

etc......

In the team's locker room, looking at Carter with an excited face, Su Feng, who originally wanted to persuade this guy to put the overall situation first, suddenly remembered a famous scene about Carter.

Although, due to historical changes in this life, many classics in Su Feng's memory have been replaced by new classics.

However, after thinking about it carefully in his mind for a while, Su Feng felt that Carter was likely to create a legendary night that belonged to him tonight.

So, after showing an "old gangster fooling Pippen-like smile" to Carter, Su Feng said: "Of course it's okay, Vince. As long as you are in good shape, you are our absolute core in this game."

bite!

Goodwill from Vince Carter +99999.

cough......

Although Su Feng did not have the so-called favorability system, after he said this to Carter, looking at Carter's touching expression, Su Feng felt that there were a lot of people in the locker room at this time, otherwise Carter would definitely hold him and kiss him.

"Su, thank you for your trust.

Don't worry, I know my own positioning.

As long as I can perform in this game and shut up those who question me, I will do my best to assist you next." Carter, who was moved by Su Feng, said to Su Feng online with rare emotional intelligence.

only......

Carter may not believe it if he says it.

In Su Feng's view, unless Carter can win the championship after he leaves in the future, the outside world's doubts about him will be to accompany him for the rest of his life.

In Su Feng's previous life, the reason why Leonard and Paul George would rather raise another mountain than cooperate with James was because they knew very well that winning the championship with James, no matter how much they paid, the credit would be my king.

To put it bluntly, this is the "negative impact" brought by Su Feng's current high status in the world.

The so-called "The Lakers lost, but Kobe did not lose."

Therefore, when McGrady told himself that he wanted to leave the Raptors after the end of this season, Su Feng did not choose to stay forcibly.

Because in that case, even if Su Feng could keep McGrady, he would be the one who was resentful to him.

Reality is not about playing games after all, and people don’t have to consider the hearts when forming a lineup. In this life, after experiencing many things personally, Su Feng just realized the greatness of those champion teams.

...

In the Route Center Arena, before the game started, under the leadership of DJ Martin on the spot, nearly 20,000 Raptors fans used their northern battle cry that was enough to shake the sky to make the sun who came to the scene feel the fanatical atmosphere of the Raptors at home.

In Su Feng's view, the Raptors' chance to create history is not unrelated to the support of home fans.

As former Liverpool coach Shankley said, football is nothing like that without fans.

In fact, this sentence is also a famous saying when it comes to the basketball court.

Because there are many objective factors that will affect the final result, the strength of both parties in the war cannot be used as a reference for the final result.

In Su Feng's previous life, the reason why every World Cup year would be that there would be a large number of "gambling dogs" queuing up to the rooftop was because this group of people were too superstitious about the strength assessment of the two sides of the war.

On the court, after the entrance ceremony, the starting lineup of the two teams tonight was given on the big screen.

Raptors: Big Ben, Xiao Ao, Su Feng, Carter, McGrady.

Suns: Langley, Gugliotta, Robinson, Hardaway, Kidd.

This season, as a new force rising in the West, under the leadership of Skeles, the Suns are currently ranked sixth in the West.

Last summer, the Suns traded the Magic for "penny" Hardaway.

In addition to the former All-Star inside Gugliota and former Bull Shield Langli, for a moment, from paper, the Suns are already a "super strong team".

However, in fact, in Su Feng's eyes, this sun was completely unused.

During the Timberwolves' time playing for Garnett, Gugliotta not only relied on his comprehensive face frame technology to achieve excellent data averaged 20+ per game, but also was selected as the Western Conference Stars' substitute list in the 1996/97 season.

With his outstanding performance during the Timberwolves, Gugliotta also successfully confused Anji's eyes, who claimed to be aware of football.

As a result, after the sun came, Gugliota's data immediately showed a cliff-like decline.

Because of insufficient athletic ability and slow lateral movement, Gugliotta is simply a human-shaped black hole when defending.

The outside defense is assisted, and once the pick-and-roll encounters, the side of this guy guarding will be given in vain.

As for the inside line, if you encounter a tough problem, the restricted area guarded by this guy is the enemy's cash machine.

Therefore, this season, in order to solve the Suns' urgent inside defense, Anji self-righteously introduced Lang Li, who had long been eliminated by the times.

Then......

There is nothing else.

If it weren't for Kidd's career during this period, and the West is not as nightmare as the future, then in Su Feng's view, this sun would never have reached the sixth place in the West.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the 99/00 season, Carter scored his highest single-game 51 points in a game against the Suns.

Before the game, as an "Encyclopedia of Four Point Guards", Su Feng also approved Carter's volunteering after he remembered this.

Because no matter how history changes, this Sun cannot be changed. Players like Carter are their nemesis.

Of course, in Su Feng's opinion, he is actually quite good at defeating this sun...

only......

"Forget it, I want the horse to run away, and I don't give it to the horse. How can such a good thing happen these days?"

On the court, looking at Carter who was full of fighting spirit, Su Feng finally convinced himself who had been addicted to the sewer recently.

My Pippen, do you know how much I sacrificed for you?

In the center of the venue, Omoto and Lang Li jumped to the ball to start the game.

With the Suns' ball rights, Kidd is responsible for dribbling through the half.

As early as that summer three years ago, Su Feng felt how slow Langli was.

On the field, the Suns attacked first. In order to wait for Lang Li's cover, Su Feng felt that Kidd was almost in trouble.
