I'm not really a brutalist striker

Chapter 201 201. Badge: Lightning Wraps Sticky Hands!The finals are coming!

The Eagles made a strong comeback in the last quarter, and Indiana's home fans booed Souter, Jackson and others deafeningly.

Reggie Miller and Jermaine O'Neal returned to the locker room early after the game and did not shake hands with the Eagles players. It seemed that they did not want to stay in the arena for a moment.

The commentator Mark Anderson laughed: "Pacers fans don't boo any more. The eagle's scoring firepower is better than that of the Pacers. In this game, the eagles only made 14 free throws, while the Pacers had as many as 32 times. Even so, the Pacers still didn't take away the victory."

Partner Tom Horvath said: "The Pacers are probably about to be swept. The true shooting percentage of the Eagles players today is not high, but the Pacers still failed to seize the opportunity. I think the Pacers should not have such good luck in the next game. gone."

Mark Anderson said: "The Pacers relied on fierce confrontation to limit the shooting percentage of the Eagles players and completely disrupted the offensive rhythm of the Eagles throughout the game. I think if the referee whistled normally, the Pacers would definitely support it. Not until the end."

With the unscrupulous ridicule of the two, it is impossible for the Pacers to have any fans in Atlanta in the short term. They are the enemies of the vultures, and they are undoubtedly the villains.

Back in the locker room, the first thing Suter did was to check his mission rewards for this game. In addition to the berserk value obtained by completing the mission, what really excited Suter was that he grabbed 20 rebounds in a single game , so as to achieve the career achievement task and get a career gift box with 20+ rebounds.

This is the first time Suter has seen this thing since he got the system. After all, Suter has never had [-] rebounds in a single game before.

Suter guessed that this thing should be the same as the scoring gift box, which can give out rare rewards such as skills, badges, and equipment.

I just don't know whether the items in the rebound gift box are offensive or defensive, or a hodgepodge of all of them?
Su Te has always been interested in things like opening gift boxes. As a new generation of European emperors, Su Te has not been ashamed for a long time. He does not consider waiting until the dead of night to open the gift box, because he is not willing to even for a moment. wait.

As Suter resolutely opened it, the rebound 20+* career gift box turned into a little bit of starlight in front of Suter. With a flash of dazzling white light, Suter finally saw what he had opened.

"Ding~ Rebound 20+* career gift box is opening, please wait~"

"Ding ~ Congratulations to the host for obtaining the rare badge [Lightning Sticky Hands], please check the host carefully~"

Lightning sticky hand: Only with a lightning-fast shot speed can the steal be completed before the offensive player reacts. After wearing the badge, the host can greatly increase the chance of stealing when defending, and there is a 15% probability of directly catching the ball in the hand ( without cooling).

In the history of the NBA, there are many players whose movement speed does not have any advantages on the outside and their confrontation ability is also very ordinary, but they can always get a lot of steal data.In addition to the small movements that constantly harass the offensive team when defending, it mainly depends on the hand speed when cutting the ball and the anticipation of offensive players.

Suter's stealing ability in his rookie season is not bad. His physical fitness is far better than most players in the league, but the average number of steals still has not reached two. On the other hand, Artest ranks third in the league with an average of 2.1 steals per game.

Player steals mainly rely on awareness and defensive enthusiasm. After Suter has this badge, he plans to reach out and cut the ball more in the future when defending close.

As the frequency of use increases, Suter will definitely become more and more accurate in the timing and judgment of reaching out for steals. Maybe there will be a chance to hit the league's steals leader next season.

If the system says a big improvement, it must be a big improvement. After all, the system has never let him down on this point.

Although the ability blessing brought by the badge is not included in the personal attributes, Suter's personal ability has actually improved, which he has already verified on the field.

Suter is more curious now, how much the badge of "Lightning and Sticky Hands" can improve his stealing ability, but there are only a few key games left this season, and he can't get close to the ball again and again. It's not worth the loss if the referee blows the six offenders to leave the field.

Therefore, he can only try the effect first in private team training, and apply it to the finals only after ensuring that the number of fouls is reduced.

Anyway, the team's training games are all his own, as long as he doesn't move too much, he can cut the ball unscrupulously, even if it's a little rough.

Went into the bathroom and briefly rinsed his body. While wiping his wet hair, Suter sat on a chair and chatted with Nash.

Steve Nash said with a smile: "Vulture, you are in charge of organizing the next game, how about I take more shots and score? I have full confidence in single-handedly playing Jamal Tinsley, and I will definitely be able to cut him off in the next game Get a high score."

"Of course no problem. In the next game, I will reduce my number of strong shots. I will not shoot when the opportunity is not too good. By the way, I will distribute the ball more to your position when I encounter double-teams." Su Te raised his head and smiled lightly, and Steve Nash chatted one after another.

The defense that Suter encountered was insane. As long as he caught the ball, he would be flanked by two Pacers players. Even if he wanted to score high points, it would not be easy.

No matter how you say it, Artest is the best defensive player of the season. Compared with scoring strong shots, it will be easier for Suter to be responsible for breaking the ball.

He and Nash often switch roles, and when they switch styles of play, they can always catch opponents off guard.

Today, Suter is a player who can play from the first position to the fifth position in the true sense. Except for his poor ball handling ability, there are no obvious defects in Suter.

Nash cracked his mouth and smiled, and called Stephen Jackson to come over and talk. "Hey, man, you played well today, the team won the game thanks to you. But next game you better shoot more, if you still have Jermaine O'Neal guarding you, he is not as tall as he is." Match your breakthrough rhythm."

There was a wry smile on Stephen Jackson's face: "Sorry, I feel a little bad today. I have been hesitating for a few rounds. I really didn't play decisively."

Suter stepped forward and patted Stephen Jackson on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't feel bad every game. I will pass the ball to you more in the next game. If you have a chance, you must shoot decisively. Jermaine- O'Neal wasn't that good defensively, he was just good at helping out in the paint."

"I know, man, the next game is going to be the last game of this series." Stephen Jackson's face is full of confidence, which has always been his character.

He is selected to the best third team this season. He wants to break through, shoot and shoot, and has a good organization and scoring. Facing the misplaced defense of inside players like Jermaine O'Neal, Jackson has no reason flinch.

While talking, Jackson suddenly thought of another thing, turned his head to Souter and said with a smile: "Today the referee's bragging is not ordinary black, and there must be many reporters who will ask you about the Pacers playing dirty. You kept making small moves while defending, and also made a lot of big moves, it seems that you definitely don’t need to apologize today.”

"Of course I don't need to apologize. It is estimated that the local reporters in Indiana are too embarrassed to mention this matter, because everyone can see the Pacers' dirt."

Sitting in the locker room and chatting briefly for a while, several people went to the post-match press conference together.At the press conference, a reporter really made a fuss and asked questions about the referee's whistle-blowing scale.

The Eagles players and coaches had a tacit understanding and did not publicly question the referee. Regarding this matter, several people had already discussed it in the locker room.Anyway, the game has been won, it is best not to question the referee after the game.

Questioning the referee is usually done by the losing team in a fit of anger, in order to get more whistles in the next game. It can be regarded as a kind of pressure to vent emotions. get fair.

However, the Eagles have won the game, and now they are questioning that they will get nothing but being fined by the league, and they may leave a bad impression on the referee association.

Referees will participate in gambling in private. This kind of thing has never been a secret in the NBA. The players involved can easily feel the difference in the scale of the two sides.

But as a partner of a sports betting company, the NBA can only try its best to cover up this matter. Whoever dares to blatantly question the referee and trace back with reason will immediately enter the league's blacklist the next day.

After all, the NBA is a commercial league. No matter in any era, it cannot be truly fair and open.

Suter was a smart man and knew how to answer such a question, even if he didn't think so.

Suter has already said what should be said before the start of the game. He has long been mentally prepared, so he will not be angry about it.

Suter talked about his personal feelings: "I think we can finally breathe a sigh of relief. There has never been a team in the history of the NBA that can complete a comeback after falling behind 0:3. Therefore, I think this round of the series We've already won the game, and all the Pacers can do is struggle."

A reporter asked: "Currently, the Los Angeles Lakers are most likely to reach the Finals in the Western Conference. They are already two games ahead of the Timberwolves. So do you think the Eagles can beat the Lakers after entering the Finals?"

"The Lakers are very strong, and the "OK combination" is also very powerful on both offensive and defensive ends. This is a difficult team to deal with. But no matter what, we will definitely go all out to play every game. The Eagles This year's playoffs haven't lost yet, and no one knows how the final outcome will end." Suter praised the Lakers and didn't say too many big words before the game.

At the current stage of the series, the two teams often cheer each other up at the post-match press conference. Rather than saying that they are courteous first, it is better to say that no one is willing to play the role of a clown in front of the media.

Suter added with a smile: "Of course, we still have an advantage against the Lakers. The Lakers have lost three games in the playoffs this year, and we haven't lost a game yet. We have a slightly better record."

The reporter asked: "It is possible for you to lead the team to the Finals in your rookie season. How do you feel about this?"

"You know, it's an exciting thing to be in the finals, but I really don't have any feelings." Suter replied.

The reporter asked: "Why? Shouldn't this be a very honorable thing?"

Suter smiled slightly at the camera: "Because reaching the finals does not mean that the end has been reached. Before the real championship trophy, no eagle player can let go of the pressure. I think losing in the finals is A very painful thing, runner-up means you are still a loser, I just want to be the ultimate winner."

Hearing Suter's answer, many reporters were stunned in the audience. No one thought that this rookie who was only in the first grade could say such profound words.

His interview video appeared on ESPN's sports news that night, and Artest's dunk was also included in the camera, which became the well-deserved top five goals.

Overnight, the city of Atlanta fell into complete madness.

Eagles fans are discussing the next finals intensely, but they become very excited when they see the hope of winning the championship, as if the Eagles have already booked the championship in advance.

Hawks fans feel that Suter is someone who can bring the team a championship, and his pattern is not comparable to that of ordinary rookies.

"The runner-up means you are still a loser." When this sentence came out of a rookie player, many people felt very ashamed, especially those players who regarded reaching the finals as a bragging rights. I wish I could dig a hole to bury myself, and then shovel two handfuls of soil on it.

At the same time, the third game of the Eastern Conference Finals series also sparked a lot of heated discussions, and the Pacers have become recognized as one of the dirtiest teams this season.

Even president David Stern started to have a headache after watching the news. This is not the way he wants to play. He hopes that all NBA teams will strengthen their offense and attract fans with smooth offense.

Just like the Eagles, they can always hit goals like flowing water, while the Pacers' style of play is more like driving fans out.

Fierce game confrontation does not mean good-looking. Players commit too many fouls. Walking to the free throw line will seriously affect the quality of the game. Fans come to watch basketball, not to watch people wrestling and clumsy performances on the basketball court To touch porcelain.

There are indeed some problems with the penalty scale. Suter was dragged by the Pacers for the entire game without getting a few free throws.On the other hand, Jermaine O'Neal seldom hits the basket, mainly in the mid-range shots on both sides of the free throw line, but he got 10 free throws.

Jamal Tinsley was also pushed outside by the Eagles' defensive system. Even when he called the pick-and-roll, he was moving near the free throw line. As a result, he also got 7 serves. There were 5 free throws.

Many fans taunted the Pacers players on the Internet, especially the Pistons fans who were eliminated by the Pacers in the last round, launched a particularly violent offensive online.

Passer-by fans are also watching the excitement of the Pacers. They eat melons and eat very happily. Championship" slogan.
