Chapter 408

Update time: 2012-09-20

No one likes to serve as a background figure to set off the greatness of others, Artest is naturally no exception. The Kings initially viewed Stephen's achievements in the first three games, but when it was their turn, they realized that it was not so good to watch others create history on their own.

Because every time I report this incident, when I am a little more detailed, I will point out the opponents that Stephen conquered in these games one by one. If I am a little more detailed, anyone in these teams will appear.

Thinking that he might be mentioned countless times in the future, Stephen got 50 points on his best defensive player. Isn't it necessary for anyone to doubt his title as the best defensive player? Artest attaches great importance to this honor, because it is the only honor he has achieved personally.

Artest's motivation increased greatly for a moment, and his pace of playing became lighter. Originally, with his weight tonnage, every move on the field required more effort than others. Moreover, as he grew older, his physical fitness decreased while his weight was increasing, so he gradually lost his original agility and became a player who won purely by strength.

Stephen was not worried at first, but Robert Horry just reminded him below, asking him to be vigilant in the fourth quarter, beware that the opponent may use abnormal means to prevent you from scoring. After all, this is away game, and you have to set records on the other person's territory. If normal means cannot be stopped, you will definitely use abnormal means.

Through Robert Horry's reminder, Stephen also thought of an old saying, "The wood is in the forest, and the wind will urge it." When my father first said this to Stephen, Stephen was very confused. He had to do the best in everything he did, so why should he hide his weakness and not show off? But now, Stephen can understand the meaning of this sentence.

When you want to make a name for yourself, you will inevitably face a lot of torture and blows, including normal and abnormal ones. Only by overcoming this difficulty and problem can you succeed, and you will not be afraid of any wind. This is Stephen’s understanding of this sentence.

Based on the current situation, you still need to score points, but be vigilant and be careful about what kind of lethal means the opponent uses, that is, to defeat the opponent, and to protect yourself from accidental injuries. So after Stephen got the ball, he saw Artest rushing over in a very strong way. Stephen did not bump back like before, but dodged away from his defense.

However, Artest's steps were beyond Stephen's expectations, and he actually chased him again, which pushed Stephen away from the basket. Stephen did not continue to fight against him, and raised his hand to pass the ball to Durant, and then ran around the outside without the ball.

I haven't done this for a long time. Stephen feels a little unfamiliar, but Artest's speed obviously cannot keep up with Stephen, especially when Stephen occasionally adds a little rhythm change when he runs. It's very difficult for Artest to chase after him.

But even so, Artest did not give up on defense. Although he kept chasing Stephen, Durant was about to pass the ball back to Stephen, but he had to take the ball to attack by himself. Kevin Martin didn't expect Durant to take the ball to attack with the ball. Durant took a big step and flashed him behind him. When he turned around, Durant had already become a back.

Mickey Moore hurriedly stood in front of Durant. Durant's body was in excellent coordination and was strideing forward. Suddenly, he stopped as if he had no inertia, then jumped, leaned back, raised his hand, and took out the ball. A series of steps were completed like flowing water, and the ball fell into the basket lightly.

The boost of defensive confidence also brought Artest's offensive motivation. Facing Stephen's defense, Artest actually played a rare role in his playfulness. His feet flashed continuously. Stephen was stunned for a moment and lost his defensive position. Before Stephen could make up, Artest jumped up and came into the air, leaned his body in the air and threw the ball into the basket, causing Stephen's block to be lost.

Stephen re-held the ball. As soon as Artest touched it, Stephen threw the ball out. Just as Artest was about to sneer Stephen, he heard a loud bang from the front and back. He turned his head and saw Coopard jumping out of the basket.

Through Artest and Brad Miller, Stephen found that Coupard moved to the bottom of the basket, while Rad Miller's attention was on Stephen's side, ready to make up for Artest at any time. Stephen immediately hung the ball high. As long as the ball was in Stephen's hand, Coupard was ready to catch the ball at any time, so when he saw the ball flying over, he immediately jumped up and dunked the ball and finished it in one go.

"No ghast, hum." Artest said to Stephen, turned his head and left, and seemed to look down on Stephen very much. Stephen didn't care about such a provocation. When the team was alone, Stephen was thinking more about victory and how to make his teammates better.

In the long season, it is impossible to expect myself to continue playing like 50% per game. Coupard, who is inside and Durant, who is outside, are the two helpers Stephen is most looking forward to. Coupard has certain abilities and certain potentials that have not been dug out. Moreover, he is Stephen's hardcore brother, so it is impossible to affect Stephen's status and is Stephen's primary helper.

As for Durant, he has the ability and potential. In him, he has the potential that far exceeds anyone on the team. If he can grow up, he will be Stephen's most powerful helper and will pose a certain threat to Stephen. However, Stephen is not afraid. Only competition can promote the improvement of motivation. Moreover, Durant's technical style limits that he is not a player who needs the ball very much. The two people do not have much conflict and can coexist.

Moreover, it will take at least two or three seasons to fully grow up. By then, I don’t know what the situation is. Moreover, after the Celtics formed the Big Three, many people analyzed that in the future, the league will see more and more such trends of superstars competing for championships. If you want to win the championship, you must also take this path. Of course, the candidates who join together should choose the right one.

Artest continued to break through with the ball, but this time Stephen was not so easy to shake. After several consecutive attacks failed, Artest suddenly passed the ball to Kevin Martin on the back, and then blocked Durant for Kevin Martin. Kevin Martin immediately made a three-pointer.

"Why don't you take action?" Stephen also returned Artest. Artest turned his face and didn't look at Stephen. He was not a fool. He was also very clear about Stephen's defense. Forced attacks will only fail. When the team still has hope of winning, he will not take action randomly.

With a "swish", the ball flew out of the three-point line and fell to the center of the basket. Stephen looked at Artest's dark face and showed a faint smile on his face. Artest relaxed a little and came a little later. Stephen seized the opportunity and shot a three-pointer from a step outside the three-point line, and the score also reached forty-six points.

Watching Stephen swaying, Artest gritted his teeth as he watched Stephen's back. After receiving the pass from Mike Beeby, Artest rushed towards Stephen with the ball. While pressing it, he quietly supported his elbow.

Seeing Artest rushing towards him, Stephen was already alert, because Stephen saw a hint of ferocity from his eyes, but Stephen did not expect him to use such a means. When a severe pain came from the flank, Stephen flashed to the side, and Artest immediately rushed to the basket.

But before he could take action, a huge body was standing in front of him, knocking him to the ground as if he had not stopped. Coupard had been waiting for him for a long time and found that he had knocked the boss away. He knew that the boss had suffered a loss. He immediately rushed over and knocked Artes to the ground, and then stretched his feet to step on Artest's leg, but Artest avoided it.

The referee came over and gave Cooper a foul. Fortunately, Cooper was quite talented in acting and the acting seemed to be true, but he made Artest very angry. What was this called? He just started to take revenge.

After rubbing his chest and climbing up from the ground, Artest saw the referee and gave Coupard an ordinary foul and wanted to go to the referee to argue, but the referee had turned around and left, giving him the back of his head, trying to compete with Coupard. However, looking at Coupard's height and weight, coupled with his ruffian spirit, Artest rationally did not rush up.

Fortunately, he didn't rush over, but Coupard had already prepared his fists and waited for him to pass. However, after returning, Stephen did not spare him because Coupard had revenged for himself. He turned around with the ball and turned behind Artest and hit Artest's back with an elbow.

Artest screamed and lay on the ground. Stephen immediately stood there, looking at Artest underground with an innocent look on his face. He stretched out his hand as if he wanted to pull Artest, and then took it back embarrassedly. Brad Miller next to him came over and pushed Stephen. Stephen retreated with a bitter smile on his face. It seemed that the innocent one was as innocent as he wanted, and the more unjust one was as unjust.

Cooper came over and pushed Brad Miller, and then was pulled by Stephen. The referee quickly ran over and stood between the two people. He felt that Stephen did not seem to have done it on purpose. He did not fight back afterwards and grabbed his teammates to calm the dispute. The referee let Stephen go and gave him an ordinary foul. However, Brad Miller and Cooper each made a technical foul.
