Chapter 504 If you want to fight, then fight!
Indiana.

With the end of the seven games, the momentum of the Pacers has reached its peak.

When Paul George returned home, he breathed a sigh of relief. This round of the series did not have to be so hard, but the Wizards broke through themselves again and again, causing trouble for the Pacers again and again. Fight with will.

But it is also because of this that the Pacers' momentum has been sharpened to such a sharp point. Paul George looked at New York from a distance, his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

After he finished washing, he lay on the bed for a long time unable to fall asleep, so he just turned over and got up, and walked back and forth a few times.Turning on the TV is nothing to watch, just some programs to pass the time at night.I turned on the computer and wanted to play a game for a while. After playing a few games, I found it boring, so I simply turned on the replay of the game between the Knicks and the Bulls.

This is his custom NBA program.After watching for a long time, he became silent, but he didn't stop. He just watched game after game, and after watching it, he turned to the game between the Knicks and the Hawks.

After reading it, it was already bright outside, and he didn't feel sleepy. After swimming in the heated swimming pool a few times, he changed his clothes and drove directly to Stephenson's house, knocking on the door.

"Who is it!" came a voice from inside, and it was Stephenson's mother who opened the door, looking surprised. "Oh, Paul, come in."

Paul George was a little embarrassed, because he came without an appointment, and he came very early in the morning, so the old man didn't have much sleep, otherwise it would definitely disturb people's dreams.

"Sorry, I was a little presumptuous here."

"It's all right!" Stephenson's mother said with a smile. "Lance, come out, there are guests."

It wasn't Stephenson who came out, but Stephenson's father, old Stephenson, also named Lance Stephenson.

Old Lance has always been a loyal fan, and he is also the coach of two AAU teams. He is a person who understands basketball.

"Hey, Paul, welcome! You finished the game so late last night, why did you get up so early today, isn't the plane at night?"

Paul George seemed preoccupied. He reluctantly said, "I didn't sleep last night. I watched the Knicks game. After watching the game, I was under a lot of pressure. I want to come over and discuss something with Lance."

Old Lance nodded and pointed to the sofa: "Come on, sit down, if you don't dislike my old man nagging, maybe you can chat with me."

Paul George nodded and sat down. Lance was called out by his mother, looking tired: "Hey, Paul, you don't need to sleep, God!"

George smiled: "You wash up first, and I will talk to Mr. Stephenson first."

Stephenson and George are very good friends, nodded and went by themselves.

"Is it about the Knicks?" Old Lance asked.

Paul George nodded: "Last night I watched the video of the Knicks' two-round game. The Pacers faced them...it was too difficult!"

Old Lance nodded: "I was also a player in college. At that time, we reached the Sweet Sixteen. Do you know who our opponent is?"

Paul George shook his head.

"Kentucky! Kentucky didn't have any well-known players that year, but their average strength was very strong. All of us were calm before the game, not because we had confidence, but because we knew we couldn't win at all. Kentucky was too Great, do you know what the final result is?"

"Win?" Paul George was unsure.

"I lost, I lost 40 points!" Old Lance laughed. "Actually, after I became a coach myself, when I think back to that game, is there really such a big difference in our strength?

No, I think we can win, but we are all afraid, we admit defeat first, we give up before we fight hard, our ambition will stop at the top 16, that is the reason we lost, and Not because of lack of strength. "

Paul George nodded and smiled: "I understand what you mean, my goal is the finals, I will not give up easily, I want to beat Gatsby, I want to prove that I am better than him, he and I He's the same age, there's no reason why I can't do what he can do!"

Old Lance nodded with a smile and said, "That's it. It's good for young people to have fighting spirit. I'll go out for a run first. You and Lance will discuss it later."

The old man is strong, changed his clothes and went for a run.

Stephenson was wearing shorts and wiping the water from his head with a towel: "My dad is gone?"

Paul George nodded: "He went for a run."

"What's the matter? Looking for me in such a hurry?"

George said: "I watched the Knicks video last night, they are too strong!"

Stephenson said with a smile: "Everyone knows this!"

"Lance, you've been with the Knicks for a while, do you know how to deal with them?"

Stephenson said with a dumbfounded smile: "I have been away from the Knicks for a long time, and their tactics have not changed much, but this is of no use, because all teams in the league that are interested in winning will study them, although their tactics are very complicated. , In fact, it’s just those tricks, but the team that can stop them hasn’t seen it before!”

George smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes, that's it. Hey, I was also in a hurry. I'm sorry, Lance, to disturb your rest. I'm leaving."

Stephenson stopped George: "Don't worry about leaving when you're here. Let's go. I'll take you to have breakfast nearby. It's good. You're all up anyway. Don't worry about the plane at night."

George nodded and walked to the breakfast shop with Stephenson to eat.

George had something on his mind, so he ate absent-mindedly after ordering breakfast.

"Oh, isn't this Lance and Paul? Are you coming to have breakfast too?" A surprised voice rang in their ears. Paul George was dragged out of his own world. When he looked up, he didn't recognize him.

Lance also looked bewildered.

The visitor introduced himself: "I'm ESPN's reporter in Indiana, um, I just came here not long ago. My name is Steven."

Stephenson and Paul George nodded: "Hello."

Steven sat down familiarly, and said with a smile, "I'm so lucky to have met you two. Can I give you a short interview?"

Paul George wanted to shake his head and refuse, but suddenly an idea popped up in his mind, he nodded and said, "Okay!"

Steven was overjoyed, took out his phone and turned on the recording function: "Can I record? If you don't mind, I'll just record it."

Paul George nodded: "Let's just record the video, but you don't need to interview, I just have something to say, you point your phone at me."

Stephenson saw something was wrong: "Paul, what do you do first?"

Paul George smiled strangely: "Boost morale!"

Reporter Steven has adjusted the phone: "OK, Paul, it's ok, you can talk."

Paul George nodded and smiled brightly at the phone: "Gatsby, here I come, this time I will beat you!"

……

Paul George stopped.

"that's it?"

"that is it."

new York.

"This is the video that ESPN pushed over in the morning, take a look."

"...Oh, that's it, not bad, Kawhi, look at him, how brave you are, you have to learn from him, maybe you will become the best small forward!

...Well, well, he will fight if he wants to! Gatsby smiled.
