Chapter 421 He has no respect for me
"The SuperSonics and Celtics were tied in the first four games of the series. Tonight, the crucial fifth game will continue to be held at the Key Arena in Seattle. Jeff, Mark, before the start of this game, What are your thoughts on tonight’s game and what are your expectations for both teams?”
ESPN's classic trio of Mike Breen, Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson have arrived at the scene, and Breen is asking questions to Van Gundy and Jackson.
"I think the Sonics are at their best, and in the two games in Boston, they only had Frye to step up. Back in the first game in Seattle, Brandon Roy started to make an impact, and in the second game in Seattle On the field, even young people like Kevin Durant performed well, and we have enough reason to believe that the Sonics will win three consecutive games at home, and the Celtics, I think their problem is much more complicated."
Jeff Van Gundy answered quickly.
Mark Jackson then answered. Since Van Gundy's position leans toward Seattle, Jackson naturally favors Boston for the sake of program effectiveness. This is a common arrangement and has nothing to do with personal emotions.
"Kevin Garnett needs to 'enter' the game tonight," Mark Jackson said. "If you just watch the Celtics' road games, you can almost compare KG to Elvin Hayes. There is no doubt that KG does not perform well on the road. Once KG is in trouble, Boston will also have trouble. As the best insider in the finals, the Celtics need his inside dominance to win on the road. The key to the ball.”
"Okay, thank you both for your wonderful comments, let us focus on the scene." As Breen took control of the court, ESPN also focused its camera on the celebrities in the front row of Key Arena. "The attention of this game has exceeded the average level of the finals. We can see that not only the mayor of Seattle, rich and famous people, but also many Hollywood stars have come."
< br>
The camera went to Spike Lee, then Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. It is worth mentioning that since Yu Fei has expressed his admiration for Winslet on many occasions, this Hollywood superstar also came to support Yu Fei tonight wearing Supersonic No. 44. In addition to them, there are also celebrities from the world of music and fashion.
Of course, Bill Simmons, who had come to watch two games in a row before, came again tonight.
In the star-studded KeyArena, SuperSonics owner Clay Bennett couldn't help but take the stage to deliver a speech before the game kicked off.
When Bennett was watched by everyone in the room, he realized that the most influential people from all walks of life were gathered here, and he felt an incredible sense of pride.
If the Sonics move to Oklahoma, such a battle will be something he will never experience in his life.
Of course, ESPN will not focus the camera on Bennett, who is about to make a fuss on the court. The camera turns to the visiting team's locker room, where the pig-headed coach is routinely feeding the players chicken soup.
"Forget the noise, guys!" Rivers said as if he were a great motivator. "We have to focus on winning. I know we will encounter problems, but we must focus on winning. When we encounter When it comes to problems, you shouldn't put all your hope It's all about our big three. You should be thinking, 'I've got to do something to help my team'! At the end of the day, we've got to compete, we've got to focus on nothing but winning from now on. Worth your attention!”
The camera turned and ESPN focused on the Sonics locker room.
"Our plan is simple." Yu Fei said, "Win tonight's game and then win the championship in the sixth game."
ESPN's cameras captured Yu Fei's speech truthfully.
But the NBA Entertainment crew, which has been filming with the Sonics for more than half a year, captured even more.
Yu Fei also said: "Because we cannot expect that a team that has won fourteen consecutive home games⑴ will lose their last home game."
⑴If the SuperSonics lose in Game 6, the Celtics will have won 14 consecutive games at home.
Soon, the two teams came to the sidelines to warm up, and DJ announced the starting lineups of both sides.
For the SuperSonics, the starting lineup is routine.
The Celtics replaced Rondo with Sam Cassel as the starter.
Cassel now only has more mid-to-long-range shooting threats than Rondo, but Rivers still has to do this, because Rondo was left open at the beginning, which caused the Celtics' offense to not go smoothly. This was the start of their past two games. The main reason for losing the rhythm.
Yu Fei walked onto the court and said hello to tonight's referee.
Tonight's referee is old acquaintance Steve Jarvey.
If this person is the referee, it will be beneficial to the Celtics, because the game standards will be very loose.
"Mr. T, it's so nice to see you." Although Yu Fei wanted to kick this man away, he still kept a smile on his face, "How have you been lately?"
Javi said seriously: "Don't get too close, Fry, you won't get any preferential treatment."
"It doesn't matter, I know you are the most fair referee in the league." Yu Fei said, "It will neither benefit me nor my opponent."
Jia Wei's expression remained unchanged: "Of course."
Only when the game starts will we know what he thinks about this indifferent old Bidden.
On the opening jump ball, Kwame Brown accurately predicted the timing and took off to win the opening ball for the Sonics.
After Roy caught the ball, he saw at a glance that the Celtics were not well positioned, so he launched a surprise attack on his own without waiting for the others. He rushed to the basket for a layup, and Garnett suddenly returned and jumped to block the shot.
But it was still a little slow. Garnett blocked a falling ball, so he was called for interference.
2 to 0
The Celtics are very solid.
This is also the role of Cassel. He is not as controlling or aggressive as Rondo.
At the beginning of the game, everyone was looking for a feeling. There was no need to work hard, so they lobbed the ball to Garnett.
Garnett faced Marion and didn't hesitate. He hit the ball hard and then turned around and shot a jumper.
It’s still this lottery-based offense. But this is what makes Garnett unique in the Finals. His jump shot after confrontation is unstable, but he can use this move in every game without worrying about being blocked. This is Brown and Marion. features all lack.
Tonight, Garnett hit the jackpot.
2 to 2
"Come on!" Garnett beat his chest with iron blood, "I'll see which bastard can defend me!"
When Kwame Brown saw it, he was surprised. This weakling who had won two games in a row on the road was going to make a big difference tonight?
"He seems to have forgotten who knocked him off the field the day before yesterday?" Brown shouted, "Dafei, give me the ball!"
Yu Fei felt something was wrong because the referee tonight was Jia Wei and he would not give the whistle easily.
But Roy passed the ball to Brown.
But Brown didn't face Garnett. The person guarding him was David Lee, a short center who was better at offense than defense.
Brown attacked decisively and his self-confidence was boundless. Lee's defense was losing ground. In the end, Brown was in the most dangerous position, but Garnett blocked the shot from behind the moment he took the shot.
This time, it wasn't ball jamming.
But Garnett, who took the initiative to help defend, also lost his rebounding position. Marion grabbed the offensive rebound and stuffed it directly to Brown.
Brown screamed and forced the ball in front of Garnett.
"You can guard me head-on!" Brown yelled at Garnett in an inflated voice.
Garnett retorted: "You bastard who pretends to be a tiger, I can guard you with one hand!"
Brown was furious and said to Fei after returning to defense: "Da Fei, that bastard doesn't even take me as a champion center in his eyes. Don't you have anything to say?"
It is known that Kwame Brown has stepped on Duncan, hammered Sharks, and Dirk Nowitzki in the past two years. Will he be afraid of Garnett?
I guess so. After all, he is just the top insider in the Cyber League.
"I'll get the ball later, you give me a pick-and-roll!"
When Brown saw that Da Fei was about to take action, he felt relieved and kept shouting: "Okay, okay!"
Garnett is the kind of person whose offensive confidence will explode as long as he makes a goal.
At this time, just after halftime, he ignored Marion and came to Brown, turned around and blocked, "Sam!"
People come and balls come.
Garnett caught the ball and turned to face the basket. When he was about to ask Brown to teach him how he played as a small forward in the Timberwolves, Pierce was about to take Yu Fei away.
But Yu Fei stopped halfway and turned around to double-team Garnett.
Garnett made an accident and the ball was swatted away by Yu Fei.
"Big fly!!!!!"
Garnett was furious. If Yu Fei hadn't disrupted the situation, wouldn't he have killed Brown?
Enraged, Garnett chased back at full speed, and his great talent shone at this moment.
He is seven feet tall. Although his agility has dropped a bit after gaining weight, his straight-line speed is still comparable to a player like Yu Fei who is in his prime.
Garnett glared angrily, preparing to teach Yu Fei a lesson. Unexpectedly, Yu Fei was suddenly possessed by Kobe at the free throw line. He hit Garnett with an iron-blooded elbow from close range that avoided the referee's sight. Then, he suddenly The racket is thrown behind him and he passes the ball backwards without looking at anyone.
No one cared about what happened to Garnett who screamed inexplicably, because Kwame Brown, who rushed to the scene, jumped with all his strength the moment he caught the ball and violently smashed the button with both hands through Garnett's body.
“!#@#￥%”
Yu Fei, the instigator of everything, had already run to the backcourt. Only Kwame Brown stayed where he was. He said loudly to Garnett, who was grinning in pain: "You didn't even make the playoffs when I beat Tim Duncan." No, don’t think that just because you hugged Paul Pierce’s lap, you can be arrogant to me. Remember, I am the number one center in the league!”
Yu Fei watched Garnett going crazy from afar, while Brown ran back like nothing happened.
"Are you feeling good?" Yu Fei asked.
Brown responded: "It's not enough. We need to increase our efforts, otherwise he won't be in awe of me!"
Brown's pathological bragging is undoubtedly a mental illness, but the strange thing is that Brown is not arrogant when facing some ordinary insiders, as if pretending to be in front of them is a very low behavior, and he likes it These statuses are much higher than his inside front cover.
The higher the opponent's status, the more energetic he pretends to be.
In a few rounds, Garnett has become the second Jermaine O'Neal, and he will never let Brown go.
