NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 169 Rout?

Next, the Suns have four away games to play, and all of them are away games in the East, namely the Celtics, Nets, Magic, and Heat.

These four Eastern Conference away games, No. 5 and No. 6 are back-to-back, and No. 8 and No. 9 are back-to-back. The schedule is very difficult.

As soon as he settled down in the Boston hotel, Frank excitedly came to the room of Li Ba and Marbury, and shouted: "Hammer, the league just announced the Rookie of the Month Award for November..."

"Hammer?" Marbury jumped up directly from the bed.

"Yeah, Western Conference Rookie of the Month in November. That's awesome, you're the first undrafted pick to win Rookie of the Month in the first month of the season."

Frank said excitedly.

But seeing Li Ba's lack of interest, he said in surprise, "Aren't you happy?"

"Do I need it? Carmelo Anthony has a 19+6 performance, and I am no worse than him. As long as the league does not discriminate against international players, he and I deserve awards. If you count the team's record, I am better than him." He is stronger." Li Ba said.

"Uh, this, Hammer, yes, you are right, the alliance gave you two." Frank shrugged.

"Ha, are you going to make double-yolk eggs?" Li Ba was taken aback.

At 5:7 p.m. on the [-]th, Li Ba and his teammates were interviewed by the media outside the locker room of the visiting team at the Celtics North Shore Arena.

"Iron Hammer, Stephen, the Suns are currently 12 wins and 5 losses, with the longest winning streak of 5. They have defeated the Lakers, Mosaics, Nuggets, Mavericks, Pacers, Timberwolves and other strong teams. Many authoritative media have won the Suns. The probability of the championship has increased by about 5 percentage points, the highest is TNT, and the probability of winning the championship is 9%, what do you think?"

asked an ESPN reporter.

"What do you think? This shows that miracles can happen in everything, so our chances haven't been reset to zero." Li Ba laughed in a teasing tone.

"I suggest that when our probability reaches 30%, you can ask this question again." Marbury said helplessly.

Damn, the highest probability is only 9%, what are you asking?

"Because of repeated victories against strong teams, the Suns have grown from a fringe team in the playoffs to a strong team. This is currently recognized by the media. Then against the Celtics, what do you think the Suns' winning percentage is? "

a local reporter asked.

"We'll do our best to beat a great team," Marbury said.

"What Stephen said is what I want to say." Li Ba smiled.

But the result was the opposite. At the end of the game at 5 o'clock, the Suns lost 96 points away, 101:[-], and lost to the Celtics.

The Suns were not bad in the first three quarters, always leading by three to five points, but they could not pull the score apart. In the fourth quarter, the Celtics broke out and played a round of 8:0 attack waves, thus winning.

Celtics boss Pierce broke out, scoring 37 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, helping the team beat the Suns.

Marbury was also in excellent form, scoring 34 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists.

李坝8投2中，13罚7中，拿下11分21篮板3助攻1抢断2封盖5失误4犯规，基于失误过多，命中率太低，表现只能说过得去。

The Celtics implemented a strict defense against him throughout the game. As long as they got the ball on the offensive end, they double-teamed or hacked.

At the same time, on his defensive end, because the opponents are not very offensive, his defensive energy is weakened. Only the rebounds are very good, and the others are not good.

This is the same as he estimated. If he participates in the offense too much, he will face double-teaming and hacking tactics, which cannot be cracked by his current offensive ability.

Apart from the two of them, the performance of other players was also mediocre. Marion continued to slump after playing, making 14 of 5 shots and only scoring 12 points.

After losing this game, Li Ba has a headache for the next three away games, three games in four days, three cities, what to do?

Since it's not easy to do, why not use it for military training?

Thinking of doing it, he went to Frank to discuss it.

In the next four days, the Suns played a rout.

Defeated, this is how the media described it.

"After 12 wins and 5 losses, the Suns lost a wave, and now they are 12 wins and 9 losses, ranking seventh in the Western Conference. What does this mean? It means that it is a huge mistake for the management to abandon Stoudemire. The villain with a few rebounds got the top spot, and they're paying the price.

I'd say Joe Johnson and rookie Barbossa would have been a better pick for the villain.They averaged 20- and 13-point performances over those four games, making them a better fit for the Suns than a seven-point-per-game villain.I can assert that the Suns will since crumble, in fact their locker room has crumbled already.I also want to congratulate the Suns management here. You will definitely be eligible to compete for next year's lottery pick. "

Here's a passage from the latest commentator article for Lee Dam's Craig Sager.

"Has our locker room collapsed? How can I not know? Do you know?"

On the afternoon of December 12th, at the Phoenix Suns training ground, Li Ba threw aside the newspaper that Frank had just given him, and asked his teammates.

"Boss, if you don't treat us tonight, we will collapse." Barbosa yelled with a smile.

"Yes, the boss has signed a lot of contracts. If we don't treat us, we will definitely collapse." Kaba Kapa laughed.

"OK, OK, no problem."

Li Ba laughed. He did sign a lot of contracts. Except for the sneaker contract, those people who came from China have already left.

The amount of these contracts is enough for his lifetime expenses. His first goal of coming to the NBA has been achieved, and then it is time for him to pursue his second goal, professional honor.

Not only him, those people also provided a lot of sponsorship to the team. Tomorrow, there will be many Chinese advertisements on the sidelines of the American West Arena.

For the team's 4-game losing streak, he is very indifferent.

After discovering that the team's condition was not very good, he discussed with Frank and gave up three away games to hone the team's third scoring point and substitute lineup.

As a result, Joe Johnson and Barbosa got a lot of shooting rights, and Kabakapa's playing time also soared to 29 minutes, which was a good experience.

On the morning of the 11th, Christine Laidlow, who has always supported Li Ba, also published an article.

"As Mr. Sager said, the Suns management made a huge mistake. They traded Stoudemire, but they didn't make up for the scoring points. These shots were shared by Marbury and Marion. Once they feel bad , will seriously affect the team's scoring ability.

But there's something glaringly wrong with Mr. Sager, the villain who grabs a few rebounds?In these four games, the Hammers averaged 21 minutes per game and grabbed 10 rebounds per game. How many rebounds are these?A rookie who has played 19 games, only got one malicious foul, no other technical fouls, averaged 1.8 fouls per game, and his defensive moves are as clean as a white lotus. Is this also qualified to be called a villain?

Has the Suns locker room collapsed?Sorry, no media has evidence of this.As for the performance of Joe Johnson and Barbosa in these four games, it is obvious training. I think the Suns are preparing for the playoffs. Mr. Sager can't even understand this. I seriously doubt whether your professionalism is qualified up. "
