knife point guard

Chapter 257 [You are covering up a crime]

3: 0.

The Spurs were kicked to the edge of the cliff and were in danger.

The Pacers got the match point and were in sight of defending their title.

The same sadness permeates the supporters of both teams. Spurs supporters feel extremely disappointed in this promising season. They once thought that they would win the championship in odd years again, continuing their previous fatalistic logic. . But now, Su Xi and his walkers are crushing the cycle of fate with their ruthless iron hooves.

0:3 behind.

Intelligent Spurs fans no longer have any illusions. They know very well that no team in history has ever completed a comeback after falling behind 0:3. As Spurs fans, their ability to think calmly has always been what they are good at.

Popovich simply said at the post-game press conference: It is not yet time to learn from the lessons of failure. Moreover, we have nothing to summarize.

This old man with white hair and beard will never change his toughness and stubbornness no matter what the circumstances.

Indiana supporters are also sad. The championship is getting closer and closer, and Suzy the Lamb is getting further and further away.

Although Larry Bird emphasized in front of the media that his relationship with Susie has never been closer, everyone knows that this ambitious young man is not willing to continue to polish the powerful Indiana team and continue to maintain this sweeping success.

Just like everything he did in the face of doubts in the past, he was always the first to charge when faced with difficulties.

When he feels there is no challenge, he will open up a new track.

In the past two years, Pacers fans have witnessed his gradual evolution from a functional player into a talented and comprehensive leader. While critics still find fault with him, Pacers fans know very well that Suhi is the best leader for the Pacers on the planet.

Only he can convince the Pacers' arrogant generals, only he can make these thorns with different personalities condense into a steel rope on the court, and only he can lead this powerful army to conquer powerful opponents one after another.

Soucy took the Pacers to the heights that Indiana fans could only dream of.

Larry Bird made a perfect deal and it was the greatest contribution of his career to his hometown.

Even if Su Xi leaves now, Pacers fans will not have any complaints. He completed his mission. Two years after he came to the team, he helped the team win a championship in history, and another championship is being built.

They are just sad.

They could have gotten more, if Susie hadn't left.

Two sad teams met in Game [-].

This game was different from all previous games, and even created an unprecedented scene in the NBA.

David Stern came to the scene with the championship trophy. If Su Xi leads the Pacers to win the championship tonight, he will hold a championship award ceremony.

This is an established process.

However, it is somewhat unconventional that the owners or executives of the other [-] teams in the league came to the sidelines.

Meetings at NBA headquarters are not so neat.

The camera panned over, New York boss James Dolan still had a beard on his face, and Isiah Thomas standing next to him had a mysterious smile. Mavericks owner Cuban was wearing jeans and holding coffee, looking like a technology elite. Bobcats owner Michael Jordan looked calm in his leather jacket. In addition, Lakers general manager Kupchak, Heat president Pat Riley, Mike Dunleavy, Jerry West, Joe Dumars... these well-known management also made an appearance.

From the moment Susie sold the property, these people acted quickly. Suhi is a completely free agent, any team can make him an offer, and he can also choose to join any team.

Before the game started, Isiah Thomas tried to walk to the player tunnel to contact Suhi, but was blocked by the Pacers staff. Su Xi did not stop the staff's behavior.

beep!

The whistle sounded and the game began.

Neither side made any changes to their starting lineups.

Both sides are silent, and both sides have a very high will to fight.

San Antonio doesn't want to be swept, and Indiana doesn't want the series to drag on endlessly.

"We want to prove that our team is the strongest championship team in history."

Reggie Miller spoke out in the locker room.

Since we are going to separate tomorrow, let us ignite the brightest fireworks in the history of basketball at the top tonight.

The Pacers have this qualification.

They defeated the Lakers with Super F4 last year, ending the Lakers dynasty's final counterattack. This year, they met the more powerful Spurs, who had previously monopolized the championship with the Lakers after the Jordan era. If the Spurs are swept 4:0.

There is no doubt that the Pacers' two consecutive championships are the most valuable two consecutive championships in history.

If a sweep is included, the Pacers are certainly qualified to challenge for the title of the strongest team in the history of the Finals.

Foster beat Duncan with a jump ball, and Suhi drove the ball forward.

Before his teammates could get into position, he dived into the penalty area. When Duncan and Mohammed were standing in the penalty area at the same time, he jumped into the air. He slammed into the two of them and passed through the gap. At the same time, he took the lead and threw the basketball toward the backboard. The moment the backboard bounced back, he grabbed the basketball with his left hand and threw it into the basket.

This goal caused an uproar at the AT&T Center, the Spurs' home stadium.

The big guys on the sidelines showed unprecedented expressions. Isiah Thomas held his head. He was equally horrified by Susie's impact and creativity.

TV cameras also captured Jordan's surprised expression, and he even raised his head to watch the slow-motion replay.

Although Su Xi's body control ability is not superb, it is still top-notch, and his flexibility is very strong. Coupled with the huge strength that is completely opposite to flexibility, this makes his aerial movements full of violence and violence. A sense of elegance.

The most important thing is that he has a shrewd and calculating mind and huge hands, and his self-throwing and buckling are smooth and comfortable.

This made Jordan's eyes light up. However, he didn't feel that Su Xi was really better than him. He could also do such an action, and he could do it more perfectly. He could jump up and play a mid-air drawbar to penetrate the defense more freely.

Jordan watched Susie play.

When Tony Barty said Suhi was greater than him.

Jordan was never a 'big-minded' player at any time. During his career, he would exact thunderous revenge on any player who dared to challenge his authority. This was a way for him to maintain his dominance.

In Jordan's heart, Su Xi's strength is not as good as his peak, or even his second season. Because Su Xi does not have super scoring ability and does not have the offensive firepower to completely surpass any system.

Insufficient attack firepower is Su Xi's biggest problem. Because Su Xi lacks firepower, he needs to connect the team and do a lot of extra work.

In addition, his height is only 192cm, although his wingspan is very long. But on the basketball court, the height restriction of 192cm is very big. In addition, his jumping ability is average, and he can't complete many aerial operations in the paint area.

Jordan believes that Su Xi's overall strength is definitely comparable to that of an active superstar. In his era, if he met good teammates, he would have a great chance of winning the championship.

However, if you compare it with yourself, it is still far behind.

Jordan sat there, his eyes continuing to be on the court.

He still doesn't like Su Xi. From the first time he met Su Xi, he had some spontaneous dislike.

This is very mysterious stuff. It's like a tiger doesn't like a lion and can't explain why.

Since Su Xi entered the league, he has repeatedly set records and gotten better and better. He won the championship in his rookie season and the Finals MVP. Now in his second season, he is running for his second championship.

General managers across the league are hoping to have a good chat with him, and everyone is very, very excited about his whereabouts. Even Jordan was asked by the management to come here to talk to Su Xi, even though he didn't want to come. He thought that since Su Xi chose to leave Indiana, there was no way he could come to his Charlotte.

What is it about Bobcats that attracts him?

The main investor of the team said: I have you. If you tell him, I will teach you how to dominate the NBA, he will definitely come over.

Jordan is not a stinker, he thinks it makes sense. Then he came.

Then, he saw his colleagues from all over the alliance arriving.

He was inexplicably jealous. Although after his contract with the Bulls expired, teams across the league also flocked to him, but they had never appeared so neatly.

Especially since he ran into Isiah Thomas.

Isiah Thomas and Sushi have a very close relationship.This guy also helped Su Xi's Chinese team win the Olympic gold medal last year.

So, when a group of people were chatting before the game, this guy deliberately spoke loudly: "Hey, did you guys watch the Athens Olympics last year? I also won the Olympic gold medal!"

He was talking to Magic Johnson, but he was speaking louder on purpose.

Jordan knew that he was deliberately stimulating himself.

He was seeking revenge for leaving him out of the Dream Team.

Now, he helped the Chinese team win the Olympic gold medal, which is undoubtedly a wonderful revenge story.

When he returned to New York last summer, he wore the gold medal and showed off every day.

Tonight, he brought it too, hanging it around his neck in swagger.

The game continues.

The two sides fought back and forth.

In Jordan's eyes, these are two teams with tacit understanding of tactics and strong tactical literacy. The Spurs have the Spurs' advantages, and the Pacers have the Pacers' strengths. Moreover, both teams are based on defense, and the offensive end is the icing on the cake.

In Jordan's view, even if the Pacers don't have Su Xi and find a mid-level point guard, they can still compete with the Spurs for the championship.

After adding Su Xi, their winning rate is even greater. No, it’s 3:0.

Except for Suhi's opening show tonight, he spent the rest of the time as a blaster. He kept holding the ball to blast the Spurs' defense, and then passed the ball to his teammates.

His teammates played great and committed.

Whether it is Artest, Stephen Jackson or Jordan's old rival Reggie Miller, they all performed well, and the inside players such as O'Neal Jr., Foster, Tony Barty and others were also powerful.

The Spurs' troika is also running wild, with the three forwards Bruce Bowen, Robert Horry, and Brent Barry all contributing.

After the first quarter, 27:28.

The Pacers led by 1 points.

The second quarter ended at 51:53.

The Pacers led by 2 points.

End of the third quarter, 71:74.

The Pacers led by 3 points.

Charles Barkley had a quick quip on TV: "If I'm right, the Pacers will win by four points tonight."

Although this is a joke, everyone is willing to believe that the Pacers will win.

Because the Pacers played really well, Su Xi's overall control was very delicate. He was like an actuary, looking for opportunities in the offensive and defensive dynamics of the court to gain the slightest lead for the team.

beep!

The whistle blew and the fourth quarter began.

Both teams use rotating lineups.

Suhi came on the court with Artest, Reggie Miller, Tony Barty, and Foster.

On the Spurs side are Tony Parker, Bruce Bowen, Brent Barry, Robert Horry and Duncan.

In the first round, Susie and Tony Barty played a pick-and-roll. He went to the basket, deceived Robert Horry's defense, attracted Duncan to help defend, and then gave the basketball to Foster. Foster just received the basketball, and Bruce Bowen slapped Foster from behind, directly on the bridge of his nose, causing Foster's nose to bleed on the spot!

Bowen's extremely malicious foul caused a wave of disputes on the court, and the referee did not give Bowen a technical foul in the end.

The game was simply stopped to allow Foster to come off the field to clean up.

O'Neal Jr. returns to the game.

He executed two free throws.

Susie walked up to Bruce Bowen and he warned Bowen: "Keep your dirty hands away, the price of irritating me is not something you can pay."

Bowen pretended to be innocent. He even spread his palms and said, "Jack, I'm really just defending normally."

Su Xi stared at him: "Do you dare to say it to God again?"

Bowen's eyes were a little evasive. "It was an accident."

He muttered.

O'Neal Jr. made two free throws.

The game continues.

Su Xi dribbled the ball across half court, and Bowen came up on defense. Su Xi didn't get too entangled with him and passed the basketball to O'Neal Jr.

O'Neal has an advantage against Horry.

He used great steps, turned around and knocked the basketball into the basket.

However, the referee blew his whistle to indicate that the goal was invalid, and he fouled Bruce Bowen.

In the corner, Reggie Miller was lying on the ground, clutching his ankle.

Just now, when Reggie Miller ran past Su Xi, Bruce Bowen stretched out his right foot and left hand. He pushed Miller with his left hand, but directly raised his right foot and kicked Miller.

Miller twisted his steps, lost his center of gravity and fell out.

Su Xi was furious at that time. He rushed forward to twist Bowen's collar, but Bowen quickly retreated to the bench.

Tony Barty quickly hugged Su Xi at this time: "Jack, Jack! Calm down! Let me do this kind of thing! Let me do this kind of thing!"

The referee also came over to remind Su Xi: "Don't lose your cool."

Su Xi asked the referee: "Why didn't you give him a technical foul? His two fouls were malicious injuries. You should go to the technical station to watch the replay. You are covering up a crime!"

Su Xi pointed at the referee's nose.

The referee did not respond to Su Xi.

Su Xi walked to the technical table and slapped the table hard: "Watch the replay! Watch the replay!"

beep!

The referee walked over and gave Su Xi a technical foul.

The Spurs home court was in a state of excitement.

A smile appeared on Popovich's lips.

Su Xi received a technical foul and simply stopped moving. He sat directly on the technical table.

His eyes looked directly at David Stern not far away.

He needs an explanation.
