107. The essence of competition
This quick two consecutive turn directly made Su Jiu's mind blank and he lost his defensive thinking about Parker.
After Su Jiu regained his judgment and reacted, Parker had already completed the horse riding and archery after turning around.
"Swish~"
This shot after passing Su Jiu in one-on-one also hit steadily again.
Parker's goal instantly made the Spurs' home court burst into a violent cheer.
Because when Su Jiu surpassed Tony Parker at the home court, the Spurs fans at home also felt a little unhappy.
After all, no matter how famous Su Jiu is currently or how popular he is, for the Spurs' home fans, he is always an outsider, and Tony Parker is his own star, so it is obvious which one is more important.
Like the excited fans on the scene, after Parker hit the ball again, Barkley, as the commentator of this game, couldn't help but cheer loudly:
"Oh my God!! Tony's goal hit again, and before scoring the goal, he also signaled Tim not to come up to pick-and-roll the ball, but to say that everyone would pull it away and he wanted to play a single shot in his own singles."
"This action is simply a match for the Magic's Sueball Team. You hit me before and made me lose my face. Then I must pay back this ball. If you don't use pick-and-roll, I don't need pick-and-roll."
"So what we said just now is really right. This is simply a fight between gods!! The two even played the All-Star in these two offensive rounds."
Kenny Smith: "Haha, yes, this game is becoming more and more interesting. One is the newcomer Su who is not afraid of tigers and wants to prove himself in front of the All-Star guard."
"One is All-Star guard Tony, who is unwilling to be overwhelmed by Su at his home court."
"This is completely a two player with different playing styles, but in these two short offensive rounds in this game, we have presented a wonderful offensive and defensive showdown!!"
The personal contest between Parker and Su Jiu, which is a gambler, has also successfully brought up the atmosphere of home fans.
For fans, it is definitely a normal mentality to spend money to visit their home team in the arena to play games and want their home team to win.
However, for fans, they would rather see the kind of even-matched and better experience the thrilling ending of overtime than the kind of slam without any suspense.
This feeling is like reading a basketball novel. If the game process is written too detailed and realistic, then the reader will say that the author is a big fuss.
But the competitive novels are just a process. If you only look at the results, you don’t need to read them at all, because the protagonist will definitely have a place in the NBA in the end.
If the protagonist has a system and after playing NBA for a few years, he can only return to China to eat pancakes and fruits, then this kind of novel will definitely be criticized by readers as eunuchs.
There are too many emotional dramas in competitive novels. Readers say you are a good competitive novel. What kind of emotions do you always write when you are fine???
I have written too many games, and he said you are a watery person, and you have only competitions and no off-field life.
I have written too much off-site life, and readers say you are so hot, and you don’t write competitions well in competitive novels. What do you always describe off-site when you have nothing to do???
The game was written in too detailed. He said you were watery, and you kept repeating the ink for so long in one game.
I mentioned the game about it, and he said, "You are here, we are here to read novels, not news. You have brought the game so quickly, what do you want us to see? Do you just look at the scores?"
So the same is true for fans to watch NBA games. The results are of course important to them, but what they expect is the thrilling and unpredictable game trends in the process.
So when Su Jiu and Parker gradually became angry as soon as they first quarter, their attack and defense seemed to be fighting against gods, and neither of them obeyed each other.
This kind of basketball with fighting spirit is the favorite among fans.
This is why fans in later generations always say that basketball in ancient times is more beautiful, not only because the basketball rules were relatively open at that time.
It was also because people at that time had absolutely high pursuit of victory and fighting spirit on the court.
Because in that era, due to the salary cap restrictions, except for superstars, the salaries of players were generally not high, so everyone's off-court life had to be much more restrained.
In order to get more salaries and have a better life in the future, all players are working harder.
Because for the basic players, their salary of less than 500,000 US dollars is probably not enough to earn their pension money, which also puts the bottom players in a lot of pressure.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is not successful and will be eliminated.
The efforts and struggle of the lower-level players will impact the team status of the upper-level players. After all, the NBA has only 30 teams, and each team has only five starting positions.
This position is very limited, and whoever plays well will sit. It can be said that it is very fair and just.
In order to prevent themselves from being replaced by substitutes, the starting players will also work harder to train to maintain their position.
Those with greater ambitions will also rush upward, reaching the level of the superstar in the league, and launching a charge to a higher position.
It is this kind of challenge layer by layer, and the previous layer is forced to bear pressure, just like a pyramid-like class that makes the NBA at that time full of challenges and competition.
As the salary cap in later generations became higher and higher, players received more and more salaries, and even players with basic salary could get a salary of up to 2 million yuan, so that they could have no worries about food and clothing.
This also led to more players starting to play basketball for money, not only losing the essence of basketball at the beginning, but also learning to enjoy life off the court.
For some players, a life of luxury is far greater than the fighting spirit on the court.
For example, the most famous handsome Chandler Parsons in NBA (Is there money? What's the matter?)
After the Rockets played a few good games, they were directly signed by high-paying games. After repeatedly cheating several teams, they didn't play a few games, but they could check the average scores they got with both hands, but they earned a lot of money.
Even the number of times he controls the ball on the court is probably not as much as he "controls the ball" off the court...
This is also why some old fans feel that the game is becoming less and less viewing.
To put it bluntly, these questions are inseparable from one word, that is money.
When players put enough money in their pockets and no longer worry about their future lives, then enjoying life while they are young seems to be the most correct way.
Everyone is talking about Chandler? Parsons’s not, but people want to have a life like Chandler? Parsons…
