Chapter 989: Will This Really Not Shake the World to Its Core?
Half a month ago, on December 11, the Seattle SuperSonics had just completed a victory in Memphis that surprised the entire world.
In that game, the Grizzlies' starting lineup overwhelmed the Sonics' starting lineup, but in the end they lost by more than 20 points at home.
In this game between the Sonics and the Heat, almost the same plot was played out together.
The Heat's starting lineup suppressed the SuperSonics' starting lineup even more crazily, but in the end, the one who lost the game was still the Miami Heat, who seemed to have the upper hand.
Not only are the points for losing almost the same, but even the way they lose is exactly the same.
When the game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Miami Heat ended, the sparse American Airlines Arena had completely turned into a dead city that seemed to have fallen.
LeBron James, on the other hand, looked at the score on the live scoreboard and couldn't take his eyes back for a long time.
For this game, he operated many, many things when the Christmas war came.
First, he showed his kindness to Yes and the SuperSonics players, and then he silently put pressure on Pat Riley.
For him, this is his preparation for advance and retreat.
If Pat Riley is really threatened by him to strengthen the team again, that would naturally be for the best.
If Pat Riley cannot be forced to strengthen the team, he will naturally have no choice but to take the Heat, which does not have such a big advantage, to compete with the Grizzlies and Lakers.
If the competition is successful, everyone is happy.
If the competition fails, there is still a retreat for the Seattle SuperSonics.
Everything in this game is under his control.
At least, that's what he thought before the game started.
But now...
Looking at the score on the big screen, James really didn't expect the score of this game to be like this!
152 to 125, a 27-point defeat!
The Miami Heat lost to the Seattle SuperSonics at home by 27 points!
Although most of these 27 points are due to the Sonics' rotation players.
In fact, the score between the Heat's starting lineup and the Sonics' starting lineup is inseparable.
However, this is what makes James even more uncomfortable.
He was carrying so much.
Came here from beloved Cleveland.
I thought they had gathered the strongest team in NBA history.
In just two years, he went from being in a weak team to being in an extremely powerful team.
When the Heat formed this powerful team, he was actually laughing at Ye Si in his heart.
"No matter how good you are at cultivating your teammates,
It’s not as good as my choice! "
"If O'Neal had not gone to the Lakers, he would have been an insider like Allen Iverson at best!"
"If Kobe hadn't forced the Hornets to trade him, Kobe would have been a bigger Joe Johnson at best!"
"Playing well is not as good as choosing well. This is the reality of the NBA now!"
But……
The invincible fleet he built with the NBA's most correct choice actually collapsed in front of the Supersonics like this...
In last season's finals, the Heat also lost to the SuperSonics.
But last season's finals did not give James such a big stimulus.
After all, in last season's finals, one was that in the first three games, his rhythm was disrupted by Yes and the SuperSonics. The team did not trust him and he did not show his full strength.
The second one is that Durant is amazing.
If it weren't for these two unexpected factors, he doesn't think the Heat would lose to the Sonics in the Finals.
But this game...
There really is no excuse.
Durant is not that amazing.
He did not affect his strength due to other factors.
His teammates also gave their best in this game.
But in the end, they lost by 27 points in the home game!
"Is evil destined to be unable to defeat evil?"
The expression on James' face kept changing.
Wade, who was watching next to him, was worried.
James, who was struggling with himself, didn't notice the concerned look on Wade's face.
He is the most evil person in the world today.
Yes is the most righteous person.
He, the most evil person, did the most evil things and formed the most evil team.
And yes, the most righteous person, did the most righteous things and formed the most righteous team.
Heat and Sonics, evil and good.
It's so distinct.
The Heat are stronger and the SuperSonics are more even.
Isn't the evil team just the boss and the minions?
As for the righteous team, except for the king of yes, the others are all Knights of the Round Table.
Even the strongest one is still the Heat.
But the overall combat effectiveness of Supersonic is absolutely explosive!
Is this the reason why there is so much help in the right way and so little help in the wrong way?
When your team replaces all its core players with stars, the rest of the team is either stars or minions.
When celebrities need help, it's hard to count on minions.
Therefore, the evil star team can only go down the road of getting more and more stars, and finally it can no longer get stars, and finally collapses.
And a righteous team like the SuperSonics has players who can stand up every time the team is in danger.
Why is evil always counterattacked by justice?
It’s not just evil that always talks too much.
But justice is born with the power to create miracles.
Thinking of this, the ever-changing expression on James' face began to slowly become calmer.
Is evil destined to fail to defeat justice?
He doesn't believe it!
He wants to form the most evil team in the Miami Heat!
If there is still no way to defeat justice and succeed...
James looked up to the northwest.
Where are the empty and noisy stands.
At the same time, that's also the direction of Cleveland...
In the away game on Christmas Day, the Seattle SuperSonics defeated the Heat and achieved their 27th consecutive victory at the start of the season.
This is the second longest winning streak in NBA history and the NBA's best start to the season.
In this NBA's most watched Christmas game, the Seattle SuperSonics became the only protagonist of the NBA tonight.
Of course, apart from the only protagonist of the Sonics, this year's Christmas war is indeed a lot to watch and very lively.
There are a total of four games in this year’s Christmas War.
In the battle between the two yes successors of the Chicago Bulls and the Warriors, Curry's Golden State Warriors finally defeated the Chicago Bulls.
But the winner of this game was obviously not Curry. In this overtime game, Curry only scored 10 points on 4 of 7 shots, while Rose on the opposite side shot 12 of 24. Scored 36 points.
It can be said that in terms of statistics, Rose completely overwhelmed Curry. This is still in terms of statistics. Rose was even more miserable by Curry on the scene.
Curry's scoring data in this game was miserable, but Curry got 12 assists in this game.
And most of the assists were given to Beasley.
Constantly jumping to pass the ball, constantly assisting Mike Beasley.
Anyone who watched this game will feel that although Rose won this succession battle.
But Curry is obviously more like Yes, especially Curry's jumping pass, which is extremely similar to Yes.
Of course, all these people see is the similarity between Curry and Yes.
But Ye Si knows that this is the best way to play for Curry's talent.
If you feel your hand is good, take action; if it feels bad, take the blame.
Mike Beasley is a good pot.
Curry has been very successful in the NBA this season.
Rookie 180 club, averaging 20+ per game, 8+ assists per game, etc.
It can be said that as long as the Warriors make the playoffs this season, Curry will undoubtedly beat Griffin, Evans and former teammate Spencer Hawes to win the Rookie of the Year award.
In the Warriors and next to Beasley, Curry is very comfortable. Although the tactical system is not very comfortable, Curry is actually very comfortable personally.
At the University of Washington, Curry is the boss and the first offensive finisher.
So at the University of Washington, Curry cried and told him the night he lost O that he knew he didn't feel good, but he had to take action because it was his team.
But in the Warriors, Curry has no such responsibility at all, because this is Mike Beasley's team. The team's responsibility and the expectations of his teammates are all on Beasley, and Curry does not need to bear so much.
He can play according to his talent and nature. If he feels good, he will take the shot. If he feels bad, he will pass the blame to Beasley.
Unfettered by responsibilities and expectations, Curry has completely become a happy angel playing according to his own nature on the court.
Curry, who originally didn't want to come to the Warriors, is now very popular.
In addition to the Christmas Day battle between the Warriors and the Bulls, the other two games were the Lakers and the Cavaliers. The Lakers led by Kobe Bryant easily defeated the Cavaliers led by O'Neal. However, the focus of this game was not the outcome, but Kobe and O'Neal. Handshake at the Staples in Los Angeles.
It's a real peace deal.
O'Neal's mind is no longer on the game this season, and this is known to the world.
Although O'Neal's statistics this season are already very good, the amount of effort you use in the game cannot be covered up by the statistics.
Last season, although O'Neal couldn't run, he could run, so the anti-fast break system created by Mike Brown for him was very powerful, and the Cavaliers' record was also very good.
But this season, O'Neal has stopped moving, except for scoring data, no other data is needed.
The Cavaliers' record is just like that.
After all, Cleveland is indeed too small for a young man like O'Neal. He has been here for almost three years, which is enough.
He needs to go for a bigger score.
This is almost an open secret.
O'Neal now spends more time in Los Angeles and New York than in Cleveland, in addition to flying games across the United States.
Cavaliers fans know it too.
But they can't be angry with such a veteran who has made such a great contribution to the Cavaliers.
Just leave and wish him the life he wants.
Therefore, the Cavaliers are also willing to let O'Neal choose his next home.
O'Neal is also very good at things.
"Although I am not a native son of Cleveland, I love it here. This is one of my favorite hometowns, the Knicks and Nets. I will go to a team that values me more and respects Cliff more. Lan’s team.”
O'Neal said so. In order to get O'Neal, a superstar with huge popularity and influence, the New York Knicks and New Jersey Nets fought like crazy.
Everyone knows how huge the commercial power of New York + O'Neal is!
The Nets want to overpower the New York Knicks, which is the same obsession as the Clippers want to overpower the Lakers.
In order to gain such popularity, the Nets are really willing to pay everything.
O'Neal, Garnett and Pierce are all superstars.
If O'Neal cannot be acquired, O'Neal will be snatched away by the New York Knicks, and it would make sense to acquire Garnett and Pierce.
All fools know that O'Neal's commercial value can kill Garnett and Pierce with one hand.
O'Neal is helping the Cavaliers get more chips, regardless of whether his next team will be severely weakened.
He doesn't care about the results at the next team anyway.
He no longer cares about the championship. He already has two, and the matter with Kobe has been reconciled. What else can he pursue?
Well, the only pursuit is probably to disgust James, the second-year-old backstabbing maniac, right?
O'Neal's current thoughts are very single, but this is really a pain for New York Knicks general manager Isiah Thomas and Nets general manager Billy King.
Both of them were lunatics, and the scene when the two lunatics started bidding was so cruel that it was unbelievable.
Now the offers from the two teams to the Cavaliers have made the general manager of the Cleveland Cavaliers tremble, but these two teams are still bidding...
The offers seemed never-ending.
"This O'Neal deal will create the shakiest general manager in the NBA!"
This is what a Boston general manager told reporters privately.
There was so much envy and jealousy in his tone, why didn't such a shabby general manager take a fancy to his own product?
The final matchup of the four Christmas games is the showdown between the Grizzlies and Rockets, and the story of McGrady's return to Houston.
When the league originally showed this matchup on Christmas Day, they probably didn't expect McGrady to be in such good shape this season.
It's like a rocket.
If the Rockets knew that McGrady was in such good shape this season.
I will never give up on McGrady. If McGrady wants the maximum salary, he must give it to him.
The Rockets management regrets it for being stingy and stingy.
Rockets fans are very angry, angry at their team's stinginess and stinginess.
Rockets players such as Yao Ming and Roy are in pain because they play for such a stingy and stingy team.
McGrady's return seems to be a slap in the face for the entire Rockets team.
In this game, the Grizzlies also helped McGrady humiliate the Houston Rockets, a team that had become a broken drum, in front of the entire world.
The 2009 Christmas War is destined to be remembered by the whole world for a long time.
The four games are four completely different stories, but they are all the most attractive stories.
And the aftertaste of the story after these four games is even more crazy.
After Yeas and the SuperSonics left Cleveland and came to Los Angeles on December 26, they received two extremely shocking news.
The New Jersey Nets announced that they had acquired O'Neal from the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Kevin Love and Bobby Simmons plus first-round picks in 2011, 2013, and 2015.
Love and Bobby Simmons have a garbage contract. This is normal. If the Nets want O'Neal, Love and Brook Lopez must go one by one. The key is the three draft picks sent by the Nets.
Are the Nets a little too confident?
After Yeos was swayed by the confidence of the Nets general manager for a while, he was almost stunned by Pat Riley's generous move.
"Miami Heat and Boston Celtics reached agreement, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce join Miami Heat!"
When Ye Si and the whole world saw this news, their expressions were shocked.
There is no way, this handwriting is indeed shocking and breathtaking...
Even James, who wanted the most evil team, was thinking in his heart when he heard the news.
"Is this team of mine too evil?"
Maybe Ray Allen is the only one in the world whose expression is  ̄△ ̄;.
