Chapter 1524 If there is no Li Feng(1/2)
"No one predicts what will happen in the future, just like if Mr. Dabendan is hit by a car when he goes out. Therefore, no one can be sure which team the championship must belong to. However, I believe that the possibility of belonging to the Pelicans is greater than that of all other teams." After confidently speaking, Li Feng stood up and left.
Dabendan glared at Li Feng's back in anger, and then came to the parking lot. When he was only about ten meters away from his car, Dabendan suddenly heard a sound coming from behind him. He turned his head and his pupils suddenly expanded. A car was hitting him at high speed.
"No?"
The sudden change made Daben Dan not have time to react. At this moment, he hated Li Feng very much. This guy's mouth was too stinky, and he was really hit by a car when he went out.
"squeak"
He couldn't help but close his eyes, but Dabendan found that the imagined impact did not come. Yixia heard a harsh sound of friction.
Opening his eyes in surprise, Dabendan's face suddenly flashed with anger, because at this moment, he saw Li Feng looking at him with a smile on his face while driving.
"Fake"
Dabendan was about to rush forward to argue, but the sound of a trumpet rang out, and he gave in to the side like a conditioned reflex.
"squeak"
Li Feng's specially made Land Rover rushed forward quickly, and then stopped beside Ben Dan, and at the same time the car window rolled down, Li Feng's voice also came out:
"Mr. Reporter, be careful when walking"
""
Looking at the rear of Li Feng's car, Dabendan swears directly.
"If the Pelicans can't win the championship, I will definitely laugh at you as much as possible, damn guy."
"Ding"
At this moment, a horn sound came from behind, and Dabendan jumped away again.
After the press conference and saying goodbye to teammates and coaches, the first thing Li Feng wanted to do was go home and have a good sleep.
When Li Feng is on the court, he will feel full of strength, but after the game, when he relaxes, he will feel urgently needed to replenish his energy, which is particularly obvious after the start of the playoffs.
In the first two rounds of the playoffs, although the Pelicans seemed to win very easily, this was the playoffs after all. Both the Spurs and the Mavericks had very strong strength, which also led to Li Feng having to do his best in almost every game.
After all, the playoffs are a more intense stage than the regular season. Although Li Feng's physical strength is not enough to make him lose his energy when he is on the court, he still has the urgent desire to rest when he comes off the court and shoulders the responsibility of the team's progress.
Li Feng can really have a long rest time. The time for the East and West finals is fixed, and they are all arranged according to the seven games in the first round, because the Pelicans eliminated the Mavericks 4-0. In this way, they have a full week off from the start of the Western Conference Finals.
Having plenty of rest also means plenty of preparation time, and the Pelicans will have a week to prepare for the next Western Conference Finals.
"Hey, Li Feng, the guys in Oakland say they want to kill us"
As soon as he entered the training hall, Cory shouted at Li Feng who was training there.
"Swish"
With a lip, Li Feng threw a ball out.
Thornton, not far from Li Feng, smiled and looked at Cory:
"Hey Stephen, did you just see this news?"
Corey nodded and smiled:
"Yes, Stephen, I had the urge to start the game right away when I saw what that guy said, so I couldn't wait to come here to train."
"Well, you're so active"
Hearing Thornton's words, Corey immediately smiled proudly, but seeing Li Feng and Thornton who were already sweating, the smile on Corey's face disappeared, and pointed at the two of them and asked hesitantly:
"you?"
Thornton shrugged:
"I've been practicing for half an hour. He, this pervert has been practicing for two hours."
While talking, Thornton pointed at Li Feng.
"oh……"
Corey opened her mouth wide and then laughed again:
"Li Feng, it seems that even you have to pay attention to those guys in Oakland."
.
"Stephen, what do you think of the Warriors?"
He stopped and took the towel on the sidelines while wiping his sweat. Li Feng asked Cory.
After tilting his head and thinking about it, Corey shook his head and said:
"Not really, Li Feng, we are ahead of them 3-1 in the regular season."
Hearing Corey's words, Li Feng immediately sneered:
"Stephen, the Mavericks played 2:2 with us in the regular season, but what's the result?"
"This..." Corey was stunned for a moment, then shrugged:
"Well, Li Feng, I have to admit that they are a group of great guys, and they also have Kevin Durant in their team."
"Be prepared for a hard fight, man"
After patting Corey, Li Feng turned around and left, and at the same time, his brows frowned inadvertently.
Cory's words made Li Feng extremely alert. He knew that such a arrogant mood would definitely not be the only one who had it. The impressive record of the regular season and the smooth playoffs made many players in the team's mentality unbalanced. Perhaps in the eyes of Cory and others, the Pelicans already have no opponent in this league, so it is natural to win the championship.
Li Feng also thinks that his team can win the championship, but he doesn't take it for granted. There is an essential difference between the two. Confidence and arrogance are only one word different, but they are thousands of miles apart, and the same results are the same.
Li Feng knew very well how intense the division finals and finals were, completely different from the first two rounds of the game. Li Feng also knew that the Warriors were absolutely strong. Although his team seemed to take the initiative in the regular season, when he came to the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors who were determined to defend the title would definitely show their strongest strength. Once this arrogance spreads across the entire team, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this time, Li Feng suddenly regretted eliminating the Mavericks in the first 4-0. It was not a good thing to go too smoothly at the beginning of the playoffs, and the imbalance in this mentality is proof of this.
"no."
After thinking about it, Li Feng felt that he should stop such emotions from spreading throughout the team. If the whole team had this kind of underestimation of the enemy and the game had not yet begun, his convenience was already at a disadvantage. For the Warriors who already had experience in the finals, such a thing would not happen to them.
Perhaps after really fighting against the Warriors, the players on the team can clearly realize this, but it was too late at that time. In the playoffs, it is very important to take the lead. It is the best way to awaken teammates at the cost of failure, but the Pelicans cannot afford this price.
When Van Gundy received the call, he was talking to assistant coach David Wesley with a slightly serious expression.
After waved his hand, Van Gundy pressed the answer button. As he listened, his originally serious expression suddenly disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face.
David Wesley looked at Van Gundy in surprise. He didn't know what was going to make Van Gundy laugh at this time.
"David, guess who called?"
After hanging up the phone, Van Gundy asked at David Wesley with a smile.
David Wesley looked at the smile on Van Gundy's face and shook his head slightly.
"Li Feng"
Van Gundy did not let David Wesley guess, but directly said the answer. Hearing Van Gundy's words, David Wesley asked strangely:
"Li Feng?"
"Yes, Li Feng, he told me that he felt that his teammates seemed very impetuous and underestimated the enemy now."
Van Gundy said with a smile.
Hearing Van Gundy's words, David Wesley also laughed. He talked with Van Gundy today, and it was precisely because both of them discovered that the mentality of the players seemed to have some problems. After staying in the league for so many years, they knew that such mentality would be harmful, so the two were ready to do something, and they had already called in before they had discussed Li Feng's phone number.
Li Feng's call made Van Gundy and David Wesley breathe a sigh of relief because they knew very well that Li Feng was the real soul of this team, and it would be easier to adjust Li Feng's mentality if he could correct the mentality of the rest of the people. What they were worried about was that everyone in the team underestimated the enemy. If this was the case, it would be a real big trouble.
"David, it seems that at least some people in the team have a good mentality. In addition to Li Feng, I think Stephen and Derek should have a good mentality as well."
David Wesley nodded in agreement and said to Van Gundy:
"This is easier, isn't it?"
A strange smile appeared on Van Gundy's face:
"David, I've figured out what to do."
After finishing his conversation with Van Gundy, David Wesley shook his head slightly. Van Gundy is indeed the most unique coach in the league. He probably only can use such a trick.
…………………………….
In the Pelicans' training hall, a group of Pelicans players all turned their eyes to Van Gundy with a serious expression. This atmosphere made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Tell me now, have you found any difference today?"
Van Gundy didn't have much emotion in his words, but as soon as his words were spoken, a group of Pelicans players below immediately looked at each other.
How could it not be discovered? Almost as soon as I entered the training hall, the Pelicans players discovered the difference today.
In the Pelicans training hall, there is a basket that is specially used for Li Feng. Every time you conduct team training, as soon as you enter the training hall, the Pelicans players will definitely see Li Feng there. But today, they did not find this familiar figure.
Seeing the expressions of a group of Pelicans players in front of him, Van Gundy also knew that these people saw it and continued: "Yes, I think you all discovered that Li Feng did not come to participate in training today. Not only today, Li Feng will be absent for a while. If we can win or lose in the Western Conference Finals, we may be able to see him in the finals."
"What?"
"What's going on?"
"Is Li Feng injured?"
"Will we make it to the finals without Li Feng?"
