18. Start tonight!

"Noah, you go in first, I'll go get those things to school, and I'll see you in the evening game." John took out the front row ticket he had bought with a lot of money and shook it, pointing to Sun Ce's autographed photos of the stars he was looking for yesterday, basketballs, etc.

"John, don't you want to go inside the locker room and have a look?" Sun Ce asked.

"Haha, kidding you, I'm not interested in that." John laughed.

Sun Ce didn't think much about it, got out of the car and walked into the direction of the player's tunnel in the parking lot.

John looked at Sun Ce's back, he could see that Sun Ce seemed to be really playing, and Sun Ce was not a real NBA player, he usually played and played, his friend had a goal, and John didn't want to add trouble to Sun Ce.

Although John is not optimistic about Sun Ce either.

April 13, 2009, the curtain call of the NBA regular season.

Yesterday and the day before yesterday, most of the teams finished the regular season of the season, and today there are still four games, but it has little impact on the rankings, and the rankings are already fixed before the last game of each team.

The Cavaliers won the regular season championship 66-16 over the 65-17 Lakers, which was also the first regular season championship in the history of the Cavaliers.

In the East, the Cavaliers, Celtics, Magic, Hawks, Heat, 76ers, Bulls, and Pistons enter the playoffs.

On the Western side, the Lakers, Nuggets, Spurs, Trail Blazers, Rockets, Mavericks, Hornets, and Jazz enter the playoffs.

Looking at the teams with the best records, the top three in the East have a better record than the top three in the West, with the Celtics having 62 wins and the Magic having 59 wins.

However, the Suns, who are ninth in the West, may have the same record as the Hawks in the East, who are now 46-35, and the Hawks ended the regular season yesterday with a final record of 47-35, and such a record cannot enter the playoffs in the West.

However, luck is also part of strength.

Of course, the strength of the West is also very uneven, how uneven is the West this season?

The Suns, who are ninth in the West, have 46 wins, and the Warriors, who are tenth in the West, have 29 wins......

In fact, the 07-08 season is even more uneven, the 07-08 season Western Conference playoff threshold is 50 wins, and the last four places in the West have only 20 wins, which is too strong and too weak.

The Suns have basically lost their playoff hopes since April, and finally the last game has arrived, and the fans are very enthusiastic.

Although they didn't have a chance to make the playoffs, the Suns had a good record after the head coach was replaced by Gentry, and fans are looking forward to the Suns' performance next season.

When Sun Ce came to the stadium early in the morning, there were already many fans waiting outside the stadium, and there were the most people outside the parking lot, and you could see the pictures of various players driving in.

After the video of yesterday's training match was broadcast on local television, Sun Ce gained some local fame in Phoenix.

Even Sun Ce entered the pavilion and heard cheers.

When Sun Ce came to the training ground, it was still early, only a little after eight o'clock, but someone had already arrived.

Steve Nash!

Although Nash didn't play tonight's game, he didn't even play for several days.

But training, tactical meetings, etc., Nash has not been absent.

Seeing Sun Ce coming, Nash smiled at Sun Ce, didn't say anything, and continued to practice shooting.

After all, it's really unfamiliar.

Sun Ce was also practicing shooting next to him, and Nash watched Sun Ce's shooting a little slower and iron, but his posture was very standard, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

As it approached nine o'clock, the Suns players arrived one after another.

Now there is no camera shooting, so the players are more cheerful, like Grant Hill and Jason Richardson, and say hello to Sun Ce, and Dragic doesn't look at Sun Ce.

It's O'Neill, who left early yesterday, and still greeted Sun Ce very warmly today, after all, he is an alumnus.

A team is basically a small society, Sun Ce briefly contacted an NBA team and got to know it to a certain extent.

However, the small social aspects of these teams have nothing to do with the current Sun Ce, such as the next tactical meeting.

After the coaching staff arrived at the stadium, they first took Sun Ce to choose a jersey, originally Sun Ce liked No. 1 the most, but No. 1 Stoudemire was wearing, Sun Ce retreated and chose No. 3.

Sun Ce is responsible for listening to the whole process, not to mention Sun Ce, even most players do not have the right to interject, only superstars such as Nash, O'Neal, Stoudemire, Grant Hill and other superstars or veterans of former superstars are qualified to make tactical suggestions.

Gentry asked Sun Ce to attend the tactical meeting, just hoping that Sun Ce would know more about how NBA point guards should cooperate with stars, and he didn't talk about it specifically for him, it just depends on how many teams' tactics Sun Ce's own ball quotient can understand, anyway, he gave the opportunity, and whether he can catch it is Sun Ce's own business.

Deeply involved in the game day of an NBA team, Sun Ce was a little dizzy, and he just knew that he could listen well.

In the afternoon tactical drill, Sun Ce mainly followed the tactics and followed the tactics to pass.

suppressed Dragic one-on-one in the training game, which made the Suns coaching staff and players think highly of Sun Ce a lot, and felt that Sun Ce should still have a little strength, so he consciously helped Sun Ce learn to run in tactical training.

In their opinion, Sun Ce may be a speed-oriented street ball player, and the biggest gap between street ball players and NBA players is teamwork.

The last game, although it is not very important, but the enthusiasm of the fans exceeds expectations, so Sun Ce will not be given the opportunity to play blindly, the starter is determined to be Sun Ce's starter, but if Sun Ce has affected the performance of the rest of the team, he will be replaced, and after that, Gentry will most likely not let him play again.

Whether this game will become the pinnacle of Sun Ce's basketball dream, and whether it will become the only NBA game in Sun Ce's life, depends on Sun Ce's own grasp.

The only good news for Sun Ce is that he won't have any pressure on the defensive end, he can't prevent it, Nash can't prevent it, Dragic is still a rookie, he will defend well in the future, and now he is also the type of person who is abusive.

During the whole day, Sun Ce was like a stupid son of the landlord's family, he would come whatever others arranged, after all, he really had no right to speak, and he didn't have the capital to come by his own temperament.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Ce warmed up with the Suns players, and when it was close to six o'clock, they entered the court together......

Since they are still in the "show" period, the Suns really gave Nash the status in terms of the appearance ceremony, after all, the promotion is to "replace" Nash to start the game!

Sun Ce suddenly had a thought: "Lao Tzu, is this going to be the pinnacle of appearance?" ”
