NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 58: sacrifice
On March 29th, Indianapolis was packed!
This lively scene is even worse than the NBA playoff finals!
If it was the previous game of 64 into 32, 32 into 16, 16 into 8, it would have been very lively.
Then the excitement of the 8-in-4 game is far better than the previous games.
Because this is the ultimate showdown between the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds in the Midwest Division.
One is for the first time in history, the University of Southern California ranked No. 1 in the regular season and playoffs of the Parker Ten Conference.
One is the University of Louisville, which ranked first in the Big East regular season and playoffs for the first time in history.
Parker Ten League fans' eyes are all focused on Southern California, because the other seeded teams have been wiped out, only the University of Southern California is the only seedling!
The University of Connecticut in the Big East League has advanced to the final four yesterday, so the eyes of Big East fans are all on the Louisville Cardinals.
Fans of the Big East are also looking forward to two teams reaching the Final Four this year!
…
The dugout at the stadium where Kenny Smith and Barkley played.
The commentators for today's game are these two TNT celebrities.
The two were chatting about the competition, while preparing the documents for the upcoming competition!
In the previous "NBA Insider", they just mentioned the University of Southern California, but they didn't expect that just one day later, they became the commentator of this game.
"Charles, how about we restart the previous bet?" Kenny Smith often likes to tease Barkley in his daily life.
Thinking of Barkley's surprise when he heard the commentary of the game before, Kenny Smith still wanted to laugh.
In "NBA Insider", I just sprayed the leading players of other people, saying that they are soft-headed, and then I commented on their games.
"Hey, Kenny, that bet was made after he entered the NBA. I don't want to bet with you. You know, the great Jazz will never lower their value to gamble!"
Barkley didn't want to accept the previous gamble, so he purposely raised his social status in a funny way, and even straightened his collar when he spoke.
"Oh, Jazz? Does the Jazz without a championship gold ring lack some gold content!" Kenny Smith immediately left the lounge after finishing speaking!
"Damn it, Kenny, you are dead. If the great Sir hadn't met that brat, I would have gotten that damned ring a long time ago!"
"It's just that I'm a little unlucky!" Kenny Smith's words made Barkley a little annoyed, but then he felt a little regretful about his luck at the time.
I originally thought that the Rockets would partner with Olajuwon and hug their thighs.
Unexpectedly, after arriving at the Rockets, he directly became the biggest leg.
Olajuwon was reimbursed for the season due to injury, and Barkley led the Rockets forward with difficulty.
Kenny Smith came back after a while, and he came back after seeing Barkley's anger subsided.
The two have been partners for a long time, and they already know each other very well.
Everyday little jokes don't really get angry either.
"Seriously, which side do you prefer for tonight's game?"
Seeing Barkley's anger dissipated, Kenny stopped teasing him and asked a question related to the game.
"I am more optimistic about the group of guys in Southern California. Although they have had some twists and turns this season, they have come all the way, and their lineup will go to the end if nothing happens. I am more optimistic about them winning the championship. I know a lot People say that USC is a dark horse, but only a dark horse can give people a crazy feeling, right?"
Barkley was very emotional when he said that USC!
"Charles, don't you like the guy in the USC No. 1 jersey?"
Kenny asked with a smile.
The longest thing Barkley did was to get slapped in the face. He used to be slapped in the face by others, but now he gets slapped in the face himself!
The point is that this guy's mouth is comparable to that of Chicago's marinated egg, both of them seem to have been opened, and they are both quite poisonous.
As long as it is the two optimistic people and teams above, it will not end well in the end.
For example, Kwame Brown, who is particularly optimistic about marinated eggs.
Then you know, Kwame Brown directly became the "parallel import champion"!
It was later that Kemba Walker saved the word-of-mouth of the corned egg, but some people said that Kemba Walker, who was chosen by the management after discussion, did not follow the decision of the corned egg!
"I'm just more optimistic about his talent in the interior!" Barkley also expressed his thoughts unabashedly.
"Then you support Southern California this time?"
Kenny and his old partner confirmed.
The commentary game is like this. The two commentators will each choose a team as a supporter, because this can be better brought in.
The two parties brought in will form antagonism, resulting in many contradictions.
If there are contradictions and conflicts, the game commentary will have more highlights and the audience will like it more.
"I root for the Louisville Cardinals!"
After speaking, Barkley looked at Kenny Smith and laughed.
Kenny Smith pointed at his old partner and laughed, which shows that Charles still knows his ability to poison milk.
Those who can become good friends with Lu Dan, the ability of poisonous milk is not weak, but Lu Dan has never been self-aware in terms of vision, which is as bad as his gambling skills.
In contrast, Barkley, who has been slapped in the face many times, is very self-aware. He knows his poisonous milk Willie very well.
Huh, is it possible that Barkley, who used to be poisonous milk, deliberately exported in reverse?
…
There is less than an hour until the start of the game.
Players of the Louisville Cardinals rest in the locker room after practice!
All the players looked relaxed, whether it was Earl Clark or Terrence Williams, or the substitute players, their faces showed relaxed expressions.
"USC's luck is really good, and the last ultra-long three-pointer can be hit."
Terrence Williams said with some emotion.
"Wouldn't that be better, they removed the biggest obstacle for us!"
Earl Clark said with a smile.
Terrence Williams also clapped his hands and laughed when he heard Earl Clark say that.
Indeed, the opponent they predicted before this was not USC, but Michigan State University.
If the opponent in this game is Michigan State University, they don't have much confidence.
This year Michigan State University is more difficult to deal with than the Kansas Jayhawks. They played Kansas because of the opponent's inexperience and came back at the last minute.
But if you want to play against Michigan State University, there will be no chance of upset. Michigan State University coaches have very strict employment standards.
The freshman can only play as a substitute in the first year, but facing the experienced and tough Michigan State University, once they fall behind, the chance of a comeback will be equal to zero.
And both universities pay attention to rebound protection, with the Michigan State University rebound training method.
With the Louisville Cardinals against them, the big man will really be a meat grinder.
Even if the Louisville Cardinals win in the end, it will be very difficult!
USC, on the other hand, knocked out Michigan State in an upset.
For the Louisville Cardinals~www.innread.com~the only favorite to win the Midwest Division is themselves!
As long as they eliminate the dark horse University of Southern California next, then they can advance to the national semi-finals!
They were still chatting furiously when Louisville Cardinals head coach Rick Pitino came into the locker room.
"Let's not underestimate our opponents. We must know that Kansas, which underestimated us in the last game, has been eliminated! I don't want to be the last Kansas!"
The University of Kansas was eliminated, but Rick Pitino was still whipping his corpse behind his back.
If the Kansas players know that Rick Pitino is behind them, it is estimated that they will definitely give Rick Pitino a big gift package next season!
Sure enough, the head coach is always the one who knows his players best. Rick Pitino can lead the Louisville Cardinals to a good record this season, which shows that Rick Pitino's level is definitely not low, otherwise he would not Will lead the University of Kentucky to win the NCAA Championship in 1996!
"They have two players in the top ten of the draft prediction list." He said, turning his attention to Terrence Williams and Earl Clark.
Those two players had a projected draft ranking of 10-15 in the first round, a ranking both of them and Rick Pitino expressed displeasure with.
But there is no way, this is the ranking given by the media and commentators after comprehensive consideration.
"If you don't want your ranking to be behind them forever, then this game will prove that you are better. Beat them and let them become your stepping stones!"
Rick Pitino is going to take Lian Dao and DeMar to sacrifice the flag.
But who is the "sacrifice" of the flag, it's hard to say!
