The second half of the game started. Su Feng was still running quickly, and when Gill proposed to defend McGrady alone, he took the initiative to step aside.
However, McGrady likes to find Su Feng.
The two sides played for six minutes. Su Feng used off-ball running to connect with his teammates. He took 3 shots and hit 1. The efficiency was neither high nor low.
But at this time, the winner on the court was already clear.
In Hinrich's words, it's garbage time!
The Magic have no fighting spirit. They are very serious about messing things up. Their entire team is the first team in the league to prepare for next season.
They are eager to learn from last season's Cleveland Cavaliers, hoping to select a super-talented rookie to form the cornerstone of the team.
The Magic head coach reached out to make a substitution. He originally planned to replace McGrady, but McGrady waved his hand to him.
He thought McGrady wanted to score 40 or 50 points tonight, so he just let him.
McGrady then took the initiative to walk towards Su Feng, and he wanted to continue the one-on-one game with Su Feng in the first half.
With the outcome decided, everyone was happy to watch the excitement.
McGrady is equivalent to Zhou Botong of Peach Blossom Island, who tied his hands and didn't use his own moves, which are the skills from the "Nine Yin Manual", and exclusively used Isiah Thomas's moves to fight Su Feng.
If you fight like this, you will definitely be blinded. After all, he was just passing on Thomas' words, but Su Feng was copying them.
Can it be compared?
Su Feng fought with him back and forth.
Super ball control skills and super coordination talents have been improved again.
The two played through the third quarter.
McGrady's total score reached 43 points.
Su Feng scored 22 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds and 1 steal.
Su Feng remains efficient.
When he came off the court, McGrady even shook his hand. "Your ball handling is indeed very similar to that of Isiah Thomas, but your ability to use the ball to convert offense is still relatively weak."
Su Feng nodded, this was a fair evaluation.
Neither player played in the fourth quarter.
Both teams sent in role players to finish this boring garbage time.
126:98.
The Bulls won the first four consecutive games.
After the game, Tracy McGrady specifically found Su Feng, and he and Su Feng exchanged jerseys. This made reporters on the sidelines click their shutters one after another. Everyone was surprised that McGrady actually took the initiative to change jerseys with a rookie.
Considering their back-and-forth duels on the field, could it be that they feel sympathy for each other?
Isn't McGrady usually compared to Kobe and Iverson? How could he be so sympathetic to a second-round pick?
Is there something special about this rookie?
Soon, reporters went to ask questions. "Tracy, what kind of player do you think Sue is?"
"Very good, very smart, very spiritual. He's one of the few rookies that stands out to me, and I like what he does with the basketball."
McGrady said "very" three times in a row, which is very rare.
"We just saw you exchanging jerseys with him. Does this mean you recognize him? Or do you know the story of his hero saving the United States in New York?" Another reporter asked.
"A hero saves a beauty?" McGrady deliberately pretended not to hear it.
This puzzled expression clearly answered the reporter's question.
The reporter and Maddie told the story of Su Feng fighting off two knife-wielding robbers and saving Scarlett.
He cooperated and made a surprised expression. Then he said: "This kid will definitely be a star in the future. He is so brave, and the court also needs bravery."
At this time, the reporter asked a strange question. He said to Tracy McGrady: "You faced off against LeBron James in the first game of the opening game, but you didn't exchange jerseys with LeBron James at that time. Is it in your heart that Su Feng is a better player than LeBron James?" ?”
Provoking trouble!
McGrady opened his mouth and looked at the reporter in surprise, clearly saying: How could you ask such a question?
Then, he said seriously: "LeBron James is of course a very, very talented player, and I am very optimistic about him."
"Of course, Su Feng is also very good. They both have a bright future."
"It has nothing to do with changing jerseys or not."
McGrady worked hard to come back.
The reporter continued to ask, "Which one of them do you think has a better future?"
"Just as good!" McGrady said as she was accustomed to holding a bowl of water flat.
But when he said these words, he knew that he had made big news.
Because, how can Su Feng and James have the same good future?
LeBron James is the chosen one. When he was still in high school, the entire NBA was eagerly waiting for him to join. He is considered the future ruler of the NBA.
Su Feng is only a second-round pick, although he played very well in the previous games. However, he is purely a role player, how can he be compared with the all-encompassing LeBron James?
McGrady is forcibly elevating Su Feng's status.
Or is it that McGrady has a unique eye and can see strengths that others cannot see?
…
When Su Feng saw this news on the ESPN column, he was stunned.
ESPN's post-game review program specifically broadcast several rounds of the matchup between Su Feng and Tracy McGrady, and they specialized in technical analysis. And he also invited former NBA Tim Hardaway.
There are two famous Hardaways in the NBA. One is Anfernee Hardaway, nicknamed Penny, the former successor to Jordan, with an elegant style of play and endless talents. One is Tim Hardaway, nicknamed the Beatle. Tim Hardaway has been an offensive point guard close to 20+10 in his career. He has All-Star strength. He is most praised for his ball-handling ability. His crossover is considered The most unstoppable killing move at the time.
"This rookie's shooting posture is very standard, his movement is very sharp, and in McGrady's words, he is very smart. But what I didn't expect is that his ball-handling skills are very good...I don't mean the level he showed, this is not him At his best. He’s squeezing out toothpaste.”
"Pay attention, as McGrady's defensive intensity increases, his ball-handling skills also improve. He maintains just the right amount of initiative, and I think he hides his ball-handling ability."
"Maddie must have noticed that."
"That's why Tracy McGrady was willing to trade jerseys with him."
"Although comparing him to LeBron James may be just a superficial statement. However, if you underestimate this rookie and think that he is just a role player who plays without the ball, you are totally wrong."
"Also, I like his bravery. Not everyone dares to stand up and save people on the chaotic streets of New York."
"Bravery can determine a lot of things on the court."
Tim Hardaway was full of praise for Sufon on TV.
This is the first time Su Feng has appeared on ESPN's post-game column. Usually, those who appear on this program and are discussed in this way are NBA superstars or super rookies, such as LeBron James.
In 2003, Internet media information was not developed, and the exposure of TV stations was very important and authoritative.
Being able to appear on this show is a great blessing for Su Feng's fame.
Agent Jason Thomas immediately called Su Feng. He said excitedly on the other end of the phone: "Jack, this show is worth a million dollars. Do you know? Brother! You have finally been recognized in the professional basketball field. You Finally compared to LeBron James. You have Tracy McGrady to thank for that jersey swap. He made the news."
End the call.
Su Feng breathed a long sigh of relief.
He really appreciates Tracy McGrady. Not only because he created this extremely popular news, many sports media are now following up on the comparison between Su Feng and LeBron James.
Another important factor is that McGrady helped Su Feng absorb talents and skills to a great extent during the game.
Under McGrady's "personal matchup", Su Feng's super ball-handling skill value reached 91.
This is already a super field, which means that Su Feng's ball control level has soared to the top level in the NBA.
The ball-handling skills are more reliable than those of many guards who have played half their lives, such as Jaylen Rose.
Further up, there are top swingmen and first-line point guards.
In addition, Su Feng's coordination and explosive talents were promoted and absorbed by McGrady.
Su Feng's current physical fitness values are as follows.
Copied from the super agility talent of Stoudemire, the upper limit value is 98, which has been absorbed to 91.
Copied from Stoudemire's super explosive talent, the upper limit value is 96, which has been absorbed to 91.
The super strength talent copied from Little Shark Eddie Curry, with a maximum value of 94, has been absorbed to 91.
Copied from Wen Baker's super coordination talent, the upper limit value is 95, which has been absorbed to 89.
Speed talent: 75.
Jump talent: 72.
Physical talent: 65.
Flexibility talent: 68.
Su Feng's talent is quite serious, and his skills are also quite prominent.
However, because of his super energy aura, Su Feng was not worried. There are so many degenerate players in the NBA, you might bump into one one day.
Therefore, when Su Feng said to Tracy McGrady that "their futures are equally good," he didn't think it was a mere statement.
Even though many basketball media are making fun of McGrady and Su Feng because of this, saying that Su Feng is like a grain of light and wants to compete with the bright moon.
…
The next day, the sports media reported overwhelmingly.
Su Feng, Tracy McGrady, and James are all media darlings.
Su Feng is in the spotlight because he saved Scarlett and won the Rookie of the Week award.
McGrady is the number one perimeter player in the league today, and he is the leading scorer.
James is recognized as the future ruler of the league, the chosen one, the player with the highest sneaker sponsorship contract in history...the darling of God who combines media love, fan expectations, and commercial influence.
The names of these three people are linked together: McGrady said that Su Feng has as bright a future as James.
The topic is full of topics instantly.
Although everyone generally does not think that Su Feng's future is as bright as James', but if he can compete with James, Su Feng has already won.
This is the reason why the so-called "the boss and the second brother fought, and the third child died".
The Bulls players teased Su Feng one after another on the bus to the airport and asked Su Feng to treat him.
"Tony, Tracy McGrady has helped you a lot this time. He helped you promote this way, which is more effective than you advertising a hundred times. Before the game, who would have thought that you could be compared with James?"
Eddy Curry said: "You must seize this opportunity. As long as you play better than James in this game, or not much worse than him, the fans will remember you."
"I didn't seize the opportunity back then. What a pity."
Eddy Curry spoke to Su Feng as a person who has been through it.
In the NBA, the value of many newcomers is achieved through this "impact" method. Eddy Curry played particularly well in his rookie game for a while. The media gave him the nickname Little Shark, and it just so happened that the Bulls also encountered the Lakers.
In that game, as long as he plays normal data, he will be able to completely secure this title and even win the 2001 Rookie of the Year award.
But he didn't seize the opportunity and was beaten so hard by Shark O'Neal that he didn't even recognize his mother.
In the end, it's a chicken and a egg.
It wasn't until last season that he regained his strength and earned the nickname Little Shark again.
Su Feng smiled.
Pippen also gave Su Feng advice: "Eddie is right, Tony. This game is very important to you. It is a nationally broadcast game. We only have three nationally broadcast games this season. One nationally broadcast game. If you play well, you will leave an impression on the fans even more than a regular season."
"You move more in this game and don't have to have direct contact with James. If you avoid him and score a few more three-pointers, won't the public opinion come?"
Pippen said to Su Feng: "I understand very well how the NBA creates stars."
As soon as Pippen finished speaking, Jill joined in and said, "Tony, this opportunity is rare, you must seize it!"
Su Feng looked around. Most of his teammates were very concerned about him, and even the head coach looked at him expectantly.
This is a mixed group pet.
However, what surprised Su Feng was that Xinrich's eyes were a little dodgey.
The next game against the Cleveland Cavaliers will be Hinrich's first appearance of the season.
He also wanted to be an instant hit.
Especially seeing that Su Feng is now thriving and his voice is amazing. He also wants to establish his position. After all, he is the No. 7 pick this year, while Su Feng is only the No. 37 pick.
No matter which angle you look at it, it should be me facing James.
Hinrich felt a little unbalanced. He feels that everyone seems to have forgotten his existence now. Didn't he just miss the preseason and four regular season games?
After all, I was also the No. 1 point guard in the 2003 class.
Can Tony still take away my point guard position?
Su Feng noticed Xinrich's complicated emotions.
Therefore, when getting off the bus, he deliberately walked to the back with Hinrich.
Hinrich said to Su Feng from the bottom of his heart: "Tony, I know this game is very important to you. But it is also the first game of my career, and I also want to perform."
Su Feng nodded and patted Hinrich on the shoulder: "Let's work together to defeat the Chosen One!"
Xinrich looked at Su Feng, and he smiled, an iceberg smile in his heart. But he still has a little doubt: "I heard that LeBron James is the most talented super rookie in fifty years. Can we beat him?"
"Of course. We in China have a saying that man can conquer nature, and we will definitely defeat him!"
Su Feng said with extra certainty.
Xinrich looked at Su Feng, and he felt more confident.
Su Feng is a man with special charm. He not only exudes charm that fascinates women, but also has a temperament that makes men convinced.
