Chapter 463 The Funny Celtics and the 'Historical' Supersonic
With the end of the Christmas battle, the four focus battles such as the Battle of the Chosen Son created by public opinion in the United States in the previous half month naturally also ended.
The Sonics defeated the Cavaliers, and Yass won the battle of the Chosen One.
The Rockets beat the Wizards, and Yao Ming won a small Chinese derby.
The Grizzlies defeated the Lakers, and the four-game battle in the Western Conference became more and more intense.
The Suns defeated the Celtics, and the finals will be played again, but the Celtics are still humiliated.
The tacit understanding of the Celtics' Big Three is increasing, and the defensive problem at the No. 1 position is still unresolved.
And it's very funny that in the face of the pressure of the team's general manager Danny Angie and the team's head coach Doc Rivers to make him focus more on the defensive end and the organizational end, Alan Lei is very individual.
More than one media reported that Alan Lei said something like this to Danny Angie and Doc Rivers: Don’t beep in front of me, I don’t need you to teach me, you can’t stop, I will go now Europe!
Alan Lei is not just talking, but really asked the Celtics to cut him more than once.
As expected of a person from the Bronx District of New York, he is tough.
As an undrafted pick, it can numb the scalp of an "old hooligan" show like Danny Ainge who dares to trade Larry Bird.
In China, the darkest places in New York have always been Queens or Brooklyn, but in fact, the Bronx is not bad at all, even older.
No. Christmas War, the Sonics and Cavaliers is the biggest focus of this game.
After the game was over, the biggest highlight became the game between the Celtics and the Suns. Alan Lei pointed at the picture of Danny Ainge spraying on the edge of the stands.
And in the face of Alan Lei's violent spouting, Danny Angie actually held back.
It's really impossible to bear it. The only point guard the Celtics can use now is Alan Lei.
It's really hard for Danny Angie, an 'old cunt', to meet a 'crazy black boy' like Alan Lei.
Cut this kid, maybe he can be happier.
Seeing that Danny Angie was embarrassed by Alan Lei, most people thought it was funny, and Alan Lei then won the title of the best "undrafted pick" in history.
Among such tough characters as Danny Ainge, Doug Reeves, and Garnett, Pierce and Ray Allen, there are no scruples in the seven ins and seven outs, which is true in the entire history of nba He is the only one.
It's okay to say that he is the No. 1 pick, but he is a small undrafted pick.
Many people said that when Alan Lei was spraying, Danny Ainge must have cut him three thousand times in his heart.
According to Danny Angie's character, how could this kind of humiliation be able to hold back?
If he didn't care about the success or failure of the Celtics' Big Three, would he be able to stand such a black boy?
But no matter what, Danny Angie's scruples really made the whole world see this absurd scene.
On the plane, watching the video of Alan Lei swearing at Danny Angie, Rondo laughed from ear to ear all the way.
This year's Christmas battle is very lively, and there are all kinds of dramas.
After such a lively Christmas battle, public opinion in the United States and the world needs to find a new focus.
In fact, this focus does not need to be searched at all, it is ready-made.
As long as they see the current records of the Rockets, Suns and Supersonics, anyone knows what the next focus of the NBA will be.
After watching the Celtics farce, the focus of the entire United States is on the Suns, Rockets and Sonics.
These three teams started with 17 wins and 2 losses. For more than half a month, the three teams have not lost a game. The Supersonics have set a team history record of 16 consecutive victories.
From the beginning of the season to the present, in two months, Ye Si, Yao Ming and Nash have won all the best of the week in the Western Conference. At the same time, the three of them have been monopolizing in the top three in the league's official mvp rankings. Location.
Before the season started, the Suns were considered the strongest team in NBA history.
Many experts believe that last season, no team in the league was an opponent of the Suns. After the Suns added Chris Webber and Grant Hill this season, the Seven-Star Suns have no opponents.
This season is definitely a season where the Suns are thriving.
Even before the start of the season, many experts and the media are already looking forward to Nash's impact on the Magician's history as the number one point guard in the next two seasons.
This is no joke, this is serious.
If Nash successfully wins the regular season mvp and the finals mvp this season, then Nash will have 3 regular season mvp and two finals mvp, which is a result that can attack the magician's first point guard in history.
The main thing is that Nash can complete three consecutive championships with the Suns. When it comes to the number one point guard in NBA history in the future, the Magician will definitely not be the number one for granted.
And this is not the speculation of those media pundits, the Suns and Nash really seem likely to rule the nba for the next three years.
But no one really thought that the Rockets and Supersonics would rise this season!
It’s okay to rise to the Rockets. The Rockets traded for Artest and signed Gerald Wallace freely. This can also be seen to be strong. As long as Artest doesn’t make trouble, the Rockets can indeed compete with the Suns. capital.
But the key is supersonic.
The supersonic speed has really risen directly without any reason.
At the beginning of the season, the most influential media in the United States put the Sonics at the bottom of the list!
If you want to say that this year's Western Conference is weak, the Supersonics will appear strong, so forget it.
The key is that this year's West is also known as the most powerful West in history!
This year's West has two historical teams like the Suns and Rockets, and there are so many elite teams. This season's West is unprecedentedly strong.
In this case, as long as any team has a historic record in an environment like the West, it is a historic team!
The Suns and Rockets are now 26 wins and 2 losses. This is a historical record. Of course, these two teams are also historical teams.
The Supersonics' current record is also 26 wins and 2 losses, which is also a historical record, but is this team a historical team?
yes, Durant, Milicic, David Lee, Rondo...
Whenever those experts and the media open the Sonics lineup and look at the bunch of players on the lineup, they want to say that the Sonics are also a historic team, but they really can't say it!
Except for yes, the rest of the players were either hacked by them today, or they were hacked yesterday, or they were scheduled to be hacked by them tomorrow.
In the history of nba, there has never been a historical team with so many black players.
Therefore, every time they see the supersonic and the solar rockets fighting, they are doing self-hypnosis.
The Sonics will definitely fall behind, the Sonics will definitely fall behind, either today or tomorrow.
But in the end, until now, more than half a month has passed, and the Supersonics have not fallen behind.
Since the Supersonics did not fall behind, they naturally had no choice but to admit it.
No matter how Durant and Rondo's team looks like a historic team, they can only regard the Supersonics as a historical team like the Sun Rockets.
Ye Si is really uncomfortable with the overwhelming public opinion in the United States now.
The Supersonics were treated by these media with the attitude of treating historical teams.
Regarding the true strength of the Supersonics this season, Yess certainly knows that the Supersonics are still far away from the Rockets and the Suns.
The supersonic record is so good now, except that he still has no weaknesses discovered, and he can still create opportunities for his teammates like a superstar.
What's more, the Supersonics' schedule ahead is indeed much easier than that of the Rockets and the Suns.
But no matter what, the media who are now frantically hyping who will fall behind among the three teams don't care so much.
These guys can't control that much, even if the Supersonics can stalemate with the Rockets and Suns for one more day, they can earn a lot of attention!
The first game after the Christmas War, on April 27, the Seattle SuperSonics came to Portland under the leadership of Yees.
The Blazers' performance this season under the leadership of Conley, Aldridge and Webster, Gortat and other young players is quite surprising.
Conley is one of the few rookies in the diamond generation who does not have the titles of Jordan and Magician on his head, and he is also one of the few guard rookies in the diamond generation who does not lose water.
Conley's current data is 13+5 per game. Although he is not as explosive as Nick Young, he is calm and does not look like a rookie at all. What makes the Blazers fans very fine and excited is that Conley is actually a leader-level rookie.
After the Blazers traded Randolph during the offseason, they were ready to build a team with Aldridge as the core. As a 22-year-old young man, he took on the important task of rebuilding the team leader. Aldridge did a very good job , Aldridge’s scoring average doubled this season, directly from 9 points per game to 18 points per game, and to the surprise and excitement of the Trail Blazers fans, Aldridge is still not as good as Randolph, the former core of the Trail Blazers. Such a difficult character.
Conley and Aldridge have exceeded the expectations of Blazers fans and front office this season.
But after all, these two people have huge expectations from the fans and management, and their surprises can be expected a little bit.
It is different from the predictable surprise of Conley Aldridge.
The outbreak of the young swingman Webster and the young Polish center Gortat is really unexpected.
Webster was the sixth overall pick among high school students. He was the No. 1 small forward in high school in the United States who had been overpowering Durant in high school. If he wasn't really talented, the Blazers wouldn't have chosen him with the sixth overall pick.
But his performance in the past two seasons really made people think that he was not good enough. His golf intelligence was too tender, his style of play was too soft, and there were some problems in confrontation.
The whole thing is a waste of talent to the point that it is a pity to discard it.
Webster's performance in the first two seasons is basically equivalent to O'Neal not playing strong on the court, but going out to fly a kite and shoot three-pointers.
This is the effect of such a good physical talent not being used in the right place.
Webster certainly doesn't have the talent that O'Neal has.
However, after not wasting his talent and finding the right way to play, this suspected forward and guard swingman finally played the level and data that the Blazers expected him to play.
Whether it is offense or defense, the Blazers finally saw a little shadow of McGrady in him.
Webster is talented, and it's not impossible for him to be able to play in the Trail Blazers.
Compared with Webster, the Blazers got Gortat from the Magic, which really turned the impossible into a possibility.
When the Blazers traded Randolph and the Lakers Magic for Gortat in a three-way deal, this was really the last choice.
When choosing to trade Randolph for Gortat, the Blazers really didn't think that Gortat could play.
When the Blazers made this deal, they completed the deal with the mentality of stopping losses in time and sending Randolph away before the start of the season.
At the time of the trade, they really didn't expect that Gortat could average 11+9 per game this season and in his rookie season.
After this European player came to the NBA, he didn't need any adaptation at all.
It is precisely because there are so many young, potential and capable players that Trail Blazers fans are very enthusiastic about the Trail Blazers this season.
The current Trail Blazers are just like the other Timberwolves in the West.
And such a team is also one of the toughest teams in the league.
Especially playing this kind of team's away game.
Teams like the Trail Blazers and Timberwolves, they're not afraid to fail.
They are full of enthusiasm.
Even if they lose, they will go all out.
More importantly, whether it is the Timberwolves or the Trail Blazers, these two teams are still teams with no shortcomings and weaknesses in the lineup.
Each location is quite unique.
And what makes the Trail Blazers more difficult than the Timberwolves is that the Trail Blazers players are generally more mature and disciplined than the Timberwolves players.
After the Supersonics played the Cavaliers away game, they flew such a long distance to Portland to play the away game, and they were physically exhausted.
Now I meet such a group of young and desperate tigers again.
The Sonics started off very tough.
Throughout the game, the Sonics and the Blazers were in a stalemate.
Even the American fans in front of the TV who expected the Supersonics to continue to entangle with the Rockets and Suns were stunned by the process of this game.
Under Webster's crazy close body, Durant's iron voice is still the same. No matter how much iron he hits against James, he still hits the same iron against Webster, without any reduction.
Under Conley's crazy bite, Rondo was equally embarrassed.
Facing the kite style of Aldridge and Gortat, Milicic and David Lee were also exhausted.
The Supersonics, who were originally rendered as a historical team, seem to be able to rely on the most stable yes in this game!
!
The media across the United States just shouted a historically strong team to the Sonics.
The Supersonics slapped the American media with their own "strength".
The Sonics lost to the Trail Blazers away, which ended their pursuit of the Suns and Rockets, and also ended their 16-game winning streak.
