Chapter 956: The Joke of Being Unappreciated and the Supersonic Speed of Paradise!
In the game against the Magic, the Seattle SuperSonics' game rhythm slowed down again. This was not because the Seattle SuperSonics wanted to change their style of play, but because they were unhappy with Howard and temporarily changed the team's style of play.
After stepping down Howard, who is now so arrogant that he is floating in the sky, the rhythm of Seattle's regular season games will not change at all.
The current personnel composition of the Seattle SuperSonics is very suitable for this fast-paced game.
Not only is the strength of the players suitable.
In fact, the players themselves also like this kind of game.
High tempo means high rounds, and high rounds mean high data.
Maybe a player's physical strength is limited, and the rounds that can be played in a game will not increase infinitely with the rounds of the game.
In the past, a team had 100 rounds in a game, and the team's star players shot 20 rounds. Now, a team has 120 or even 130 rounds in a game. The team's star players may still have 20 rounds or one or two more due to physical reasons, but the extra rounds belong to other players in the team.
Why do so many teams in the league advocate offense and fast pace this season, and they all seem to be unable to stop?
The game is played beautifully, fans like it, and team management likes it.
There are more rounds and more data accumulation, which the players like, and all players like it, not just star players.
At the same time, weak teams are weak teams no matter whether they play slowly or quickly, but they play fast, so they fish in troubled waters and gamble their lives more. Who knows if there will be rain for three-pointers today? In this case, the head coach of the NBA's largest number of not-so-strong teams is also willing to play at this pace.
As for those strong teams, it is because it is too difficult to find excellent heavy centers in the league, but the forwards and guards have recently exploded. In this case, these coaches are also willing to try to play small balls in line with the trend.
Let's not talk about the playoffs first, try it in the regular season first, what if it really succeeds?
Besides, if you don't try it in the regular season, won't it be too late to wait until the playoffs when you really face a team like the Supersonics?
In this case, the entire league has been swept by a storm of speed and small balls this season.
Many people say that this is caused by Yes.
Yes has always felt that it is more because these teams have seen their needs, and their team's lineup is suitable for playing small ball.
He is just a fuse, not the most important reason.
If it is still the era of the four centers.
There will definitely not be many people who play small ball and run to the four centers to be abused.
It is because there are not so many top centers in the league now, and the punishment after taking risks will not be so great. The punishment is not proportional to the benefits. Of course, everyone will choose to earn more gains with a small price.
In this year's finals, the Seattle Supersonics played small ball, risked a lot with a small amount, and won the championship with a gambling-style three-pointer that was one point more than two points. It really makes people see the temptation of gambling.
In the entire Seattle Supersonics, apart from losing Yes, which team dares to say that they don't have a lot of players like Durant in their team?
In terms of player talent, Durant is probably going to be beaten by James.
But in this year's finals, Durant's score was even beaten by James!
Why?
Isn't it because of the three-pointer, because of the reckless and fast-paced shooting offense?
As long as you can hit the three-pointer, as long as you shoot enough, as long as you hit enough, it doesn't matter if your talent and strength are beaten by James and Wade, as long as you score more than James and Wade, basketball is ultimately a game of who can score more.
As long as you are accurate in the three-pointer, shoot more, and hit more, even if you are Novak, you can beat James!
Since teams like the Seattle Supersonics can do it, why can't we?
This is the most real idea of many teams now.
Weak teams want to steal the chicken, anyway, they can't be worse, maybe they can sneak into the playoffs.
Strong teams also want to steal the chicken, anyway, they will definitely be beaten by the Heat, Lakers and Grizzlies in normal play, so they might as well learn from the Supersonics to win big with a small investment.
In this regard, Yes and the Supersonics are pioneers like fuses, and the desperate strength of the Lakers, Heat and Grizzlies is the catalyst.
And the Magic have proved that it is really feasible for ordinary teams to play such a gamble.
This team, which ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference last season, can actually occupy the first place in the league with almost no personnel changes.
How can this not make people jealous?
It is under such circumstances that the average score per game in the NBA has repeatedly set new highs since the start of this season.
For a time, every team was throwing three-pointers crazily. For any team, if you have an offensive time of more than 15 seconds, you are wasting your life.
The change in style in the NBA this season even surprised and delighted David Stern, the league's finals, and even had a little fear.
In the days when the NBA had a slow pace, defense was king, and fierce people emerged, he knew that such a dull and extremely dirty game could not bring a future to the NBA, so he encouraged offense and constantly modified the rules.
But the effect is actually very limited. Profit is the first driving force. As long as he can win the championship with defense and dirty play, his reforms will not have much effect. In fact, in the 2005 Finals between the Spurs and the Pistons, he even lost the championship. I feel like the NBA may be coming to an end.
It wasn't until the emergence of Leafs and the SuperSonics that the NBA essentially changed. Even the Spurs are now focusing on small ball and offense.
This is comforting, but it also makes David Stern instinctively a little scared.
The offense is good and the basketball is good, but nothing is too much.
In the past, he was defensive to the extreme, and he wanted to cultivate offense.
Now that the offense is going to the extreme, is it necessary to suppress the offense?
If the offense really reaches its extreme and the fans start to get tired of the offense, David Stern can suppress it.
But he himself doesn't know where the ultimate offense in the NBA is.
This is a headache.
It is very important to master the balance, but where the balance is, not everyone can see it.
Xiao Hua, who is now just an ordinary NBA manager, is puzzled by David Stern's concerns.
"It's unfounded to worry about others!"
Xiao Hua was very resentful and depressed. He felt like a pregnant woman. The talent in her belly was suffocated and she couldn't use it. The more she suffocated, the more she suffocated. The pain of abdominal distension was even worse than killing him.
David Stern was not sure when he was going to take action to limit the offense that was now flooding.
But many teams and players in the league have actually felt the changes in the league.
For example, Durant was banned by the league for his "powerful" loop in this year's playoffs. In the future, such loops will only result in fouls but no free throws if the number of fouls is not reached.
In addition, it is not just giant loops that are banned. For example, Kevin Martin's method of leaning into a defensive player and then swaying to draw a foul is also banned.
Moreover, the league's new rules allow defensive players' hands to touch non-injurious parts of offensive players above the free throw line.
Many people feel it.
The league, which had been protecting offensive players before, actually started protecting defensive players.
The 2009-2010 NBA season is destined to be a lively and special season.
This season has just begun, and something magical has happened.
And this kind of excitement is the same as the season, it's just the beginning.
This season, because offense is king, the fortunes of many players on many teams have changed. Maybe these people are not as arrogant as Howard, but after changing their fortunes, it is certain that they have become "confident" and "high-spirited".
With data and confidence, if you change your destiny, of course you will think more, such as All-Stars, etc. This is human nature.
as the focus and centerpiece of this lively season.
The Seattle SuperSonics training facility is not that noisy, and actually still has a little bit of a paradise feel.
Even Wang Han and the others, who are reporters for the Seattle SuperSonics, found it a bit magical.
This season is really a show of people and gods, only these SuperSonics players are as impressive as ever... I don’t know what to say...
Durant still looks aloof.
Milicic doesn't think about losing weight every day, but plays around with his little belly trembling.
As for Rondo...
The clanging sound of iron always makes people look at him with envy and jealousy.
Many Chinese reporters are saying privately that if they can enter the SuperSonics, they might have the opportunity to become a scoring champion.
Logically speaking, Rondo is the one who should show off best this season after getting data that is completely inconsistent with his own strength.
But Wang Han was very surprised that she really didn't see a trace of hair on Rondo's face that was not matched by his strength.
Well, Rondo gives people the feeling that he really feels that his strength is what he should be.
She is not the only one who feels this way, most of her peers also feel this way.
In fact, Rondo does think so.
"Isn't it natural that the second master's strength can produce such data? Piaomaopiao, don't compare the second master with a rubbish upstart like Howard!"
As for Ye Si...
Well, still doing his acrobatics on the training ground.
Yease has always been the weirdest person at the Seattle SuperSonics training ground, and has never been surpassed.
In addition to the team's tactical training, other teams are practicing shooting, ball handling, and other basketball-related training.
Ye Si is either catching the sword with his bare hands, or crushing rocks on his chest...
Reporters and fans from the United States and all over the world were dumbfounded when they saw that trick.
"I've heard that Yes is very sao during training, but I never thought that it would be so sao..."
This is really a hardcore man who can shock the world every moment!
Ye Si doesn't want the world to be shocked, he just wants to improve his own strength.

The 90 potential points of passing, lateral movement and agility brought to him by Zhuang Lin's five-star card have been fully practiced by him.
And the 90 speed potential brought to him by Curry's four-star card has also been fully practiced by him.
In addition, Yes added the breakthrough potential opportunities summarized in the season last season to the passing.
Now Yes's passing attribute has reached 98 after the breakthrough potential. After the 98 potential is fully practiced and the 20% bonus of Zhuang Lin's five-star card is added, Yes's highest passing ability can reach 117.6, which is a very terrifying passing ability.
It is almost possible to achieve that no matter what the passing environment is, Yes can pass wherever he points, which can better allow Yes to seize Rondo's 76 touch opportunities, and can also better pass the ball to any teammate with a better touch.
Some players have average catching talents, but such players also have good touches. When they feel good, Yes can see it, but because of the poor passing, he can't see it, isn't it uncomfortable?
As long as he can practice the potential of 98, he doesn't have to worry about the dilemma of insufficient passing ability when he wants to pass in the future.
However, the ability to break through potential needs to trigger the corresponding task.
And the mechanism of triggering this task is also quite random. Yes is not sure when he can trigger this task of raising the passing ability to 98.
After defeating the Magic at home and winning six consecutive games, the Seattle Supersonics will bid farewell to Seattle for a short time. The Seattle Supersonics will face the Los Angeles Lakers on November 10 and start their away trip to California.
As the next opponent of the Seattle SuperSonics and the opponent of the Seattle SuperSonics' opening game, the Los Angeles Lakers have had a very hard time recently.
As the strongest team in the NBA in a short period of time, the F5, the Los Angeles Lakers' start of this season is also quite a complaint.
SuperSonics, Mavericks, Clippers, Hawks, Rockets, Grizzlies, Thunder.
The opponents are a little stronger, but let alone the undefeated teams like the Heat and Grizzlies, what's the matter with 3 wins and 4 losses in 7 games?
This has fallen out of the playoff zone in the West.
With such a strong lineup and such a poor performance, the ridicule of Kobe and the Lakers has actually quietly arrived...
