Chapter 31 fear no one (Part 1)

Happy moments are always short. The next day, the young lovers say goodbye to each other. Rina goes on to continue her studies, and Chamberlain continues his basketball life.

After playing against the Lakers, the Spurs' next schedule is not easy, and they need to go through a cruel three-game tournament.[]

Their opponent in last year's division finals - the New Jersey Nets, the greatest small man, the shortest No. 1 pick in NBA history - the Philadelphia 76ers led by Allen Iverson, and the Wizards where the famous No. 0 "General" Arenas is located.

Gary Payton is old, and has not met De Anthony in Nash. Chris Paul is still in school in 2003. If Allen Iverson is not included, Jason Kidd can definitely be called the best point guard in the league, no doubt about it.

As the second-tier pick in 1994, Kidd formed a "3j" combination with Jim Jackson and Jamal Mashburn when he first entered the league. However, this combination lasted for less than three years, and it fell apart because of the off-court conflict between Kidd and Jackson.

This also became a microcosm of Kidd's entire career. This talented orthodox point guard, the active league triple-double king, will always end this glory with someone he has in a glorious moment.

Kidd was later traded to Phoenix, where he spent five years, or struggled for five years. Without achieving anything memorable, he swapped his boss with Marbury in 2001 and came to New Jersey.

During this year, Kidd led the bottom of the fish at that time to a record of 52 wins and 30 losses and reached the finals. In the finals, they met the most powerful team in the league at that time - the Los Angeles Lakers with the "ok" combination.

In the 2002-03 season, they were on the right path and reached the finals again. This time they met the Spurs led by two No. 1 picks and unfortunately lost.

Destiny also began his mysterious cycle. Kidd had conflicts with the team's head coach this season, which also became their final glory. This period was called the Golden Age of New Jersey by people later.

The Spurs and Nets game was hotly discussed by the media before the start of the game. From the personnel configuration to the current record, it is generally considered to be evenly matched.

Because of the finals, fans who were also full of resentment at the loss of New Jersey's championship launched a powerful sonic attack on the Spurs at the beginning, and the entire court was filled with boos and curses.

Compared to the calm expression of the old player, Chamberlain, who was an otaku in his previous life, had a slightly blue face. Finally, he saw the other side of his cheering. When he walked into the stadium, he seemed a little nervous because of his poor psychological quality, which made him pressed on the bench by **Vic and pressed him all night.

This old enemy in the finals last year entered a fierce confrontation at the beginning of the game. New Jersey's "three horses" were inseparable from the Spurs' precise tactics.

From 21:22 to 49:49, and then to 87 draws. This game showed a strong gunpowder smell, which also made it difficult for both substitutes to have a chance to play.

Some media once used "cockroach" to describe Spurs. Bowen's "unhygienic" is one aspect, and the other is the strong vitality of Spurs.

When the game reached the final stage, the main players of both sides, who were panting, made the final sprint.

At this time, the league dunker - Kenyon Martin dropped the chain and missed the dunk at the critical moment. Although the rebound was obtained by Kidd, it also seriously hit their morale to maintain their efforts. The Spurs once again showed their tenacity, with a score of 101:103 in the final game. The home team was in front, and the Spurs laughed to the end.

At the post-match press conference, due to the restraint of the players on the field and the harmonious scene, the head coaches of both sides, who were quite satisfied with the game, did not mock each other. They first affirmed their efforts and praised the other party's level, and finally attributed the ending to luck.

When the media saw the coaches of both sides fighting, they pointed the microphone at the players attending the press conference, a league-old monster Kidd, and a premature Duncan. They tried to arouse anger and failed again. Unwilling to give up the Nets, they left the Nets and asked **Vicci's opinion on the next game against the Sixers.

**Vicci, who knew that he would not pass the test without giving the bone, pushed Parker to the front desk with the mentality of a dead fellow Taoist, and said: "I don't think their little man is better than Parker. Parker may not be able to win the finals MVP, but he will never be able to."

The media, who finally got the news, did not give up and conducted several tests but failed, retreated decisively. The next day, one by one, one by one, and the war between the Spurs and the 76ers was released.

At this time, the Spurs had no time to care about these things. After a night of rest, they rushed to Philadelphia.

Although the Philadelphia 76ers are well-known as one team, there was no team in the league at that time that dared to humiliate them casually, because there was a real "giant" here - Allen Iverson.
