If all encounters in this world are reunions after a long separation...

That.....

On May 26, the Miami American Airlines Center officially started with Su Feng's 62nd career fight with Duncan (including the regular season)...

Regrettably...

In this meeting after a year of separation...

Su Feng's lifelong enemy Duncan did not fight with Su Feng until the last moment as people expected before the game.

On the court, just three minutes after the G1 match between the two teams started...

Duncan, who was injured, was replaced by Celtics coach Miller Carl.

And before being replaced by the head coach...

The scene of Duncan kneeling on one knee at the Center of the US Airlines, covering his knees with his hands also made countless Celtic fans in front of the TV feel a chill.

Not willing to give up?

Of course not to give up.

Because no matter whether it is victory or defeat...

Duncan didn't want to miss every battle he had with Su Feng.

However, with the continuous pain coming from my right knee...

Even a man like Duncan, who is a strong personality, almost burst into tears by the biting pain.

The moment I knelt on the floor of the American Airlines Center...

Not many people know...

Duncan's extremely sad expression at that time was not because he could not bear such pain.

only......

Because he knew he could not continue to compete for the Celtics in this year's playoffs.

Adult collapse is often only in an instant.

American Airlines Center, when she was helped by the team doctor...

Because Duncan's head was covered with a towel, the fans on the scene and in front of the TV did not see the expression on Duncan's face through close-ups.

However, within the player's passage...

When this man, who has always been serious and rarely acts radically, swung his right fist to the fire cabinet set on both sides of the player's passage and smashed the glass cabinet with one punch...

Even through the TV screen, fans watching this game can feel Duncan's unwillingness.

TNT TV, Barkley, who saw this scene, said with emotion: "In competitive sports, injuries are undoubtedly the biggest enemy of all players.

If I were Tim, I think I would be as uncomfortable as him.”

"Leaving for the time being is just for a better return next time.

Although I don't know if Tim can return to the stage in the next round of the series...

But I believe that as the lifelong enemy of Shufen, the 'God of Basketball', he will definitely return to the place where the miracle happened in a better state."

Smith said after a long sigh.

In the Celtic locker room, after conducting a simple examination for Duncan, just as the team doctor was about to tell Duncan about their preliminary examination results, Duncan shook his hand at them.

"Please, please don't tell me the damn result.

At least, before the MRI...

Please coax me.”

Although Duncan also knows that his behavior is childish...

but......

At this moment, the Celtic team doctors were broken by the big boy with a clear look in his eyes in front of them...

Tim...

Even if it's all like this...

Are you still fantasizing about continuing to return to the court and fighting side by side with your teammates?

"No, you don't think we can easily win this Celtic team without Tim?"

On the court, after this game was interrupted for several minutes due to Duncan's emergencies...

Looking at the group of teammates who could not wait to open the champagne in advance on their faces, Su Feng said with dissatisfaction.

"Everyone is cheering me up!

This TM eliminated the defending champion Celtics!

They won't let us pass this easily!"

On the court, Su Feng, who has rarely gotten angry on the court in recent years, glanced at his teammates with his ignorant eyes and said.

And at this time, on the bench of the Celtics, beside Miller Carl...

Larry Bird, who came to the scene with the team tonight, also sighed.

"He killed our last glimmer of hope."

Bird said, looking back at his assistant with a helpless look on his face.

After the American Airlines Center lacked Duncan, the Celtics, who were already in extreme fatigue, did not cause too much trouble for the Heat in this G1 battle.

Under Su Feng's full-time guard, Lei Allen pulled his sword in this game...

Even if he just peeks at the scabbard, he will cause a lot of beatings from Su Feng.

Without Duncan's cover, Parker's breakthrough threat on the court instantly dropped to a higher level.

Payton, who pretended to be dead in the regular season, effectively restricted Parker's shots on the court tonight.

Compared with speed, Old Payton naturally cannot be Parker's opponent.

But with O'Neal and Morning inside...

The experienced Payton deliberately chose to put Parker in the inside.

If it were in the past, under the involvement of Randolph and Duncan, as long as Parker could start on the court, you would have no choice but to do anything to him.

But on this night that makes all the Celtics fans feel extremely sad...

Even Korver, who was sitting on the sidelines, could predict Parker's offensive route in advance.

Is it because Parker's breakthrough on the court slowed down?

No......

It is because Parker's breakthrough route was carefully designed by Payton for him.

Therefore, even if Parker's home is not at all inside, it is difficult for this French sports car to do whatever it wants in the Heat's penalty area as before.

At the end of the first half, the Heat, who played steadily, entered the second half with a 15-point lead.

In the third quarter, because Randolph was created by Su Feng as soon as he got up...

This season, the Celtics have played 10 games in the regular season, with 0.8 points per game and 1.5 rebounds. Bathel was also in danger and took on the heavy responsibility of defending O'Neal.

But......

In this way, the Celtics almost lost their last stable scoring point in the inside tonight.

Su Feng, who had left the stage to O'Neal and Ginobili in the Eastern Conference semifinals, did not hesitate.

After taking out his Pangu giant axe from his waist, Su Feng walked straight to the Celtic highland.

Tony Allen, who is responsible for the main defense of Su Feng, has good athletic ability now, but his experience is not as good as his senior brother Ate.

With an increasingly anxious state, Tony Allen even received a malicious foul because he was too big during a defense.

And the other way around...

Su Feng’s playing style tonight...

No matter how you look at it, it is a perfect iron-slave-style fighting style.

When the chance is not good enough, this super pitcher who shoots in various fancy shots in the regular season would rather hit the inside and commit a foul than waste any chance of making a phone call.

Without Duncan's assisted defense, even if Bathel can stand up, his movement ability cannot guarantee that he can take care of O'Neal while blocking Su Feng.

In the end, in this G1 match of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat got their best off the table as they wished.

The final score of the two teams was 98 to 119.

In the final quarter, in order to ensure stability, Su Feng was replaced by Riley until the Celtics replaced all substitutes.

In the whole game, Su Feng made 12 of 21 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, and 10 of 11 free throws, scored a total of 36 points, 9 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.

O'Neal scored the second highest 23 in the game, plus 14 rebounds.
