Chapter 191 Listen, What They Are Saying

Kenny Smith looked worriedly at Charles Barkley, who had serious eyes and an erratic expression. He knew what his old partner was thinking. As one of the top [-] legendary players in NBA history, he has achieved great achievements in terms of personal honor. At the top of the forwards, he is recognized as the strongest power forward, but he is the only one who has never won a championship or MVP in the finals. Some superstars have regrets.

The current Suns undoubtedly have the strength to win the championship, but there are still many doubts about whether they can win this championship. Now their biggest obstacle on the road to the championship is the San Antonio Spurs built by Popovich. Will they be able to cross this mountain?

Kenny Smith doesn't quite believe that the Suns can overthrow the Spurs now, maybe they can do it in the future, but they are still a long way from this hard power. The suppression is too great, they are still young, wait a minute, their chance will come as soon as Duncan's peak period is over.

"Cough cough,"

Kenny Smith was suddenly awakened by a coughing sound. Looking up, it turned out that it was Barkley signaling him that the game was about to start. Kenny Smith smiled at Barkley, watching the broadcast screen, he deliberately said with a bit of ease: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Suns' home game against the Spurs is coming. This battle is undoubtedly the most watched round of the series. After the Suns swept the Lakers 4-0 to end the series, the Spurs also won 4 :1 victory over the Nuggets, the two sides will meet again in the Western Conference semifinals!"

"Yes, there is no doubt that this will be a game full of suspense and sparks, whether it is the Spurs' pressure on the Suns before ruining Nash's best season, or now the two best balls in the West with the Mavericks out. This is very likely to be a matchup to determine the Western Conference champion and even this year's NBA championship!" Barkley continued Kenny Smith's words.

"So far, the first round of the playoffs has all ended, including the Rockets' final game against the Jazz in Game [-] at Jazz's home court. Kirilenko's free throw ended the battle between the two sides. Round, this has to be said to be a curse that Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady's Rockets cannot escape!"

Kenny Smith drank his saliva and continued: "The other round of the Western Conference semifinals is the Jazz against the Warriors who completed the miracle of the Black Eight. This series is full of unknowns. Will the Warriors under the leadership of Nelson continue to create a miracle? After the Eastern Pistons defeated the Wizards 4:1 in the first round, they faced the Raptors who defeated the Heat in the second round, and after the Celtics defeated the Nets 4:2, they faced the Cavaliers led by the little emperor James. It’s hard to see how the Western Conference Finals and the Eastern Conference Finals are going to be, and this kind of game is full of unknowns.”

Barkley saw that Kenny Smith was getting further and further away, and he was about to analyze the situation in the Eastern Conference. He quickly interrupted Kenny Smith, who said hi, and saw that players from both sides began to enter the field. Kenny Smith has not yet said the game The key is that he doesn't know if the audience is in a hurry, but he is a little in a hurry anyway.

……

"Boss, I'm a little nervous."

Gao Tian looked at Ricky Davis wiping the sweat from his hands from time to time, and looked at the Suns substitute players who also looked nervous. Gao Tian knew that all the Suns players might be nervous now, after all, they were facing the Spurs , After thinking about it, Gao Tian asked in a puzzled tone, "Why are you nervous?"

"I...I'm a little worried..."

"You don't play, why are you so nervous?"

……

Ricky Davis's unfinished words were choked in his throat, and suddenly everyone, including him, felt a little bit pained. There was a little silence. Everyone looked at Gao Tian who was already very calm with dark faces. Why did he suddenly have a feeling of wanting to hit him.

But I don't know why Gao Tian interrupted the atmosphere that was gradually dignified in the team and suddenly it was disrupted. Most of them let it go. After all, they had very little or no playing time, so there was no need to worry about it. Only Ricky Davis lowered his head silently, feeling that he felt very bitter when he was offended.

The baby is so pitiful, but the baby must cheer up, and he will say this to others in the future, um, come on!

Not caring about the younger brother who was hit, Gao Tian closed his eyes and listened to the uproar caused by the discussion of the [-] fans in the arena. Some people were full of worry, they were very afraid that the team would lose the series, And some people are full of self-confidence. They think that the current Suns cannot be defeated by the Spurs. They will definitely be able to defeat the Spurs and go to the Western Conference Finals!

Listening to the uproar, Gao Tian slowly opened his hand and then slowly clenched it. He knew that this round of the series would be difficult, but he would fight to the end no matter what. He wanted to give himself a perfect season. If he failed He will regret it.

After all, this should be a perfect season.

Tim Duncan looked at Gao Tian standing not far in front of him with slightly complicated eyes. He liked this talented elementary school boy very much. Although they were not players on the same team, they were good friends. Gao Tian appreciated it very much. Originally, he thought that Gao Tian might not be able to stand in front of him as a strong opponent until next year, but he did not expect that Gao Tian would appear in front of him as a great enemy today. It was so fast that even he felt a little unbelievable.

Everyone in the Spurs knows how big the threat of the sun after Gao Tian is. From the time the series against the Nuggets is not over, Popovich often calls all the players of the Spurs together. The Suns discussed and arranged tactics as an imaginary enemy. Although the series was not over at that time, everyone knew who the Spurs’ next opponent was, but when this day appeared in front of him, Duncan was still in a daze. Young, so young that everyone doubts whether his immature shoulders can bear the expectations of everyone in Phoenix.

"Tim, what are you thinking?"

Duncan suddenly felt someone patting him on the shoulder behind him, turned around to look at Manu Ginobili with a smile on his face, and touched his head habitually, Duncan asked with a smile: "Do you have any questions?" Are you confident you can win this series?"

"Yes, I have!"

Ginobili answered Duncan loudly without hesitation.

"Because we have a guy like Tim Duncan."
