Chapter 1,147 He Is Really Back!
On October 29, 2013, Cleveland, the opening game of the new NBA season is about to start here.
At this moment in Cleveland, the outside of Quicken Loans Arena is almost boiling.
For Cavaliers fans, the daughter-in-law of many years has finally become a mother-in-law, and the team is finally on the road to revival.
For neutral fans and many coconut media reporters, three years later, Yes, the SuperSonics No. 9 who once dominated the league and the world, wore his new No. 14 jersey three years later. came back!
For Yes, changing the No. 9 jersey to the No. 14 jersey is a new beginning.
For them, is it a new beginning?
Even for the alliance, it is also a new beginning!
Outside Quicken Loans Arena, it is now surrounded by coconut fans from all over the United States and neutral fans who want to witness history.
Inside Quicken Loans Arena, it is undoubtedly the world of Cavaliers fans at this moment.
The whole world knows that Seattle SuperSonics fans are rich. Even Miami fans and Los Angeles fans can't resist the money from SuperSonics fans.
But this is Cleveland, and the significance of this game to Cleveland Cavaliers fans cannot be measured in terms of money.
Therefore, the entire Quicken Loans Arena can now be said to be a sea of joy for Cavaliers fans.
Looking at the Quicken Loans Arena that was already boiling over before the game even started, David Stern's palms in the stands were a little sweaty.
"Perhaps putting this game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the opening game is too quick and quick, and it is also too unfair to the Seattle SuperSonics."
David Stern frowned and shook his head.
He has unparalleled confidence in Yes.
While many people around the world are doubting how much fighting power Yes still has at its peak, he feels that Yes's strength will not be much different from its peak.
Jordan adjusted back in more than half a season, Yes only took a month or two at most, and a pre-season practice was enough.
Yes is the king in his heart, and a huge stage is needed for the coming of the king of Yes again.
This stage is not something that the Kings, Jazz or other weak teams can bring.
Yes needs a huge stage that can attract the interest of the whole world and attract the attention of the whole world.
There is no doubt that the opening game of the NBA regular season, against the defending champion, is the best and biggest stage for Yes to declare his return as the king!
David Stern thinks his idea is correct.
What's more, the Seattle SuperSonics are not weak. After Ibaka and Gasol left, the team's main skeleton is actually retained. Although the strength is compared to the defending champion, the Cavaliers, who just defeated the 80-win team, are again distance.
But the distance is not that big, and Yes has the physique to create miracles. Yes has a chance to win in this game and also has a chance to show his magic.
Therefore, this will be a very exciting and intense game as he expected.
But no matter how correct his idea was, he never expected that Old Nelson would suddenly suffer from Alzheimer's disease.
Like Popovich, the power suddenly went out.
How come the Seattle SuperSonics were transformed into what they are now by Nelson?
Looking at the two teams on the court that have finished their warm-up.
At this moment, the starting players of the two teams are ready to play. As the Seattle SuperSonics' starter and main force for the past seven years, Milicic and Millsap are all sitting on the bench at this moment.
That's right, the Seattle SuperSonics have always had a very good inside combination, but they won't start in this game!
Even if he is a fake fan, he still knows the seriousness of this matter!
Not to mention fake fans like him and non-professional fans, even the professionals around him, Pippen, and the reporters and commentators from all over the world are still boiling right now?
"Old Nelson's Alzheimer's symptoms are more severe now than when he was in the preseason!"
"In the preseason, Nelson was not so crazy. He would use Milicic and Millsap in the starting positions. Even if they were false starters, they would still be starters. But now, Nelson is crazy and even false starters. Not even for these two people!"
"Old Nelson is crazy when he is crazy. Why does Yes want to go crazy with Old Nelson? What kind of crazy lineup is the SuperSonics!"
"Yes, James Harden, Leonard, Durant, Antetokounmpo, these five perimeter players are crazy. Yes, James Harden and Antetokounmpo are all defenders. This is suicide. ah!"
"Yes, yes, Nelson has become so demented. Why didn't Yes and Milicic and Millsap turn against him? Both Milicic and Millsap's starting positions were given up by Nelson. Why did these two Can't people follow Rondo's example and punch Nelson and then spit on him after he's knocked down?!"
Listening to the unknown sounds around him, David Stern, who was originally frowning, frowned even deeper.
Regardless of coconut flour or coconut black, everyone has reached a consensus at this time, that is, Old Nelson is seeking death!
Yes, forget about James Harden and Durant, Yes and Durant are super, James Harden is an All-Star, they can start in any lineup.
But what the hell are Leonard and Antetokounmpo?
Can these two people replace Milicic and Millsap, the two All-Stars?
Is Old Nelson going crazy because he wants to beat himself up?
Do you really think Leonard and Antetokounmpo are James and Anthony?
Let alone James and Anthony, are these two guys comparable to Iguodala and Paul George? !
And what makes them even more incredible is that after Milicic and Millsap were replaced by these two guys, they actually had no objection at all. They were quite content to sit on the bench, with the expressions on their faces. Easy.
This is very confusing.
Is it possible that the charm of Yes is so great? Now that Yes is back, all-star players like them are willing to stay on the team as a substitute?
At this time, the expressions on the faces of Milicic and Millsap sitting on the bench were indeed very relaxed.
Of course they are not willing to play as a substitute.
Why should I play as a substitute when I can start?
But, this season is important to Nelson.
Yes said that he will completely follow Old Nelson's instructions this season. Yes has said this, and of course they players will not have any objections.
Dream come true.
Nelson's contributions to the Sonics over the years deserve the respect of all of them and the sacrifices of all of them.
What's more, even if it wasn't for Nelson's sacrifice to realize his dream...
"Those two boys are really strong..."
Looking back on the sparring sessions at the team's training ground these past few days, the two really had a new understanding of Leonard and Antetokounmpo.
These two people are qualified to start in the Seattle SuperSonics.
For Sonics insiders like Milicic and Millsap, there is nothing to say about the fact that the Sonics just started playing five players this season.
But for the rest of the world, it's really shocking.
"When we were five young players last season, we didn't dare to be directly in the starting lineup."
Green and the Warriors players were surprised to see the Sonics starters on TV.
"Last season I didn't start the five small teams at the beginning, not only out of respect for Yao, but also because I wasn't very confident in my five small team tactical system, and I was afraid that there would be too many critical moments that had been thoroughly studied and wouldn't be used."
Steve Kerr continued with a smile: "Actually, when Mr. Nelson used Milicic and Millsap as false starters in the preseason, it was because he didn't have that much confidence in his five players, so I was also very curious. Why is Mr. Nelson so confident now? He doesn't seem to care whether the other party has thoroughly studied his five tactics."
Cole was curious as to what made Nelson suddenly so confident, so confident that he was so arrogant.
On the edge of the court, Nelson's face was excited. He hadn't been so excited for a long time.
It should be said that I have never been so excited!
The definition of his board value reaching 1 is that all of the player's abilities have reached B+ abilities.
B+ ability represents elite ability in the NBA, which is the so-called quasi-All-Star level ability.
All abilities can just reach the quasi-All-Star level. This player's board value is 1.
For abilities beyond the elite level of B+, the board value will be increased, while for those below the elite level, the board value will be reduced.
Therefore, star players, even super giants, may not have a high board value. Some super giants are not super giants because of their versatility, such as Nowitzki. Nowitzki's board value may not even be 1.
Being a super giant does not necessarily mean a high board value, but a player with a high board value must be a star player!
After all, the standard for a board value of 1 is that all abilities reach the elite B+ level. If the NBA really has such a standard player, it must be a star player. Let’s not talk about whether he can make the All-Stars. Players at the All-Star level do not have any The problem.
In his calculations, the board value reaches 1.5, and the strength is at least starting from a superstar!
After Leonard was discovered by him.
The Seattle SuperSonics' five-small starting lineup has four players who are at least super giants!
The 1.6 board is worth it!
Nelson is still immersed in the surprise of discovering Leonard.
The board value of Yes is ‘? ’ number is unknown, and his ability cannot be evaluated.
Durant's board value is 1.8, which is the minimum strength to have a super giant board value.
And James Harden is just right at 1.5, which is the minimum starting board value for a superstar.
In other words, now, among the five players in his team that he can drive, four of them are at least superstar-level in ability!
And he's not a superstar like Nowitzki or Yao Ming, he's a real barrel-shaped all-around superstar!
Even Antetokounmpo, who is the only one whose board value does not reach above 1.5, has a board value of 1.2. This board value is because he is not very familiar with the rhythm of NBA games and his performance on the court is lower than his ability value.
After he adapts to the NBA, his board value can be higher, maybe 1.3 or even 1.4. As for above 1.5, it should be impossible.
If Antetokounmpo's board value really reaches 1.4, then he is the player with the least ability to start as a quasi-star!
With five players like this to practice his five-little tactics, what else does he have to worry about?
If this is not confident and this is not crazy, is he still a mad scientist? !
This season, he will be crazy from beginning to end!
Nelson was very confident and frantic from beginning to end.
At this time, James, who had the same idea as Nelson, looked at the SuperSonics lineup opposite, and his eyes kept shining.
To be honest, before the game started, he was still a little worried. The Sonics were not weak, and with the addition of Yes, even if the Cavaliers were much stronger, this would still be a tough battle.
Such a tough battle will be a great obstacle for him to win the season.
But now, seeing that the SuperSonics' starting lineup does not have Milicic or Millsap, but replaced by Antetokounmpo and Leonard, who made Yes a fool, the smile on James's face becomes playful. Woke up.
Yes, James Harden, Durant, Leonard, Antetokounmpo...
All I can say is that when people are crazy, they can do anything.
With just five starters like this, do you dare to appear in an NBA game?
Just these five people, he can sweep them all by himself!
"In this game, I'm going to fight five!"
Um?
James looked at Cousins next to him in surprise.
This kid actually thought of going to the same place as him.
Look at the excitement and excitement on this kid's face.
James smiled after being stunned for a moment.
Cousins can indeed hit five.
Among the five outside players on the SuperSonics court, who can stop Cousins' hammer?
And it's not just Cousins. In the thick eyebrows, James also saw Cousins' confidence in playing five.
"I have to say that the lineup that Nelson created after suffering from Alzheimer's disease is simply good news for insiders in the league. Melo, are you interested in playing a string of fives in this game?"
James smiled and said to Anthony next to him.
After hearing what James said, Anthony was stunned for a moment and raised his eyebrows.
Anthony looked at each of the SuperSonics starters.
James Harden is still so stupid.
Leonard, the cute little disciple of Yes who needs protection at all times when his heart is fragile, has innocent and shy eyes.
Antetokounmpo, this year's highly controversial No. 2 pick, always likes to grin stupidly with two rows of big white teeth and a silly smile, looking like a boy. Come and work out with me. Fitness is the key. The foolishness of youth.
To be honest, these five lineups of the Seattle SuperSonics do give people a strong feeling of bullying them.
In addition to Yes and Durant, plus James Harden, who looks dull but is actually a thief, the other two people can be easily rubbed and crushed to pieces.
It was as if the most delicious roast duck and turkey had been placed in front of them, just waiting for them to eat.
In fact, LeBron, Cousins, Big Eyebrow and even John Wall are already ready to start.
A string of five!
Not to mention Cousins and Big Eyebrow, two invincible insiders in front of the five SuperSonics starters, nor to mention him and James, two small forwards with huge offensive advantages, even John Wall wants to do it now. String five!
John Wall's eyes have been fixed on Ye Si. Of course, Ye Si also noticed this kid.
His John Wall three-star card came from this kid.
Stephen Curry, his injured apprentice, had some clear arrangements for last year's finals.
The burst of speed is quite good, the breakthrough and passing are also quite good, and the body is also quite strong.
John Wall really wants to challenge Yes now.
For the NBA's speedy guards, Yes is like a god. It would be strange if he doesn't want to challenge.
As long as he chooses Yes, he can easily arrange the entire Sonics team in a row!
Five in a row, five in a row!
Ever since Yes arranged all the Celtics players in the finals against the Celtics, playing five at a time has become the highest standard for NBA players to perform on the court!
Facing Yes and the Sonics, and on such a huge stage, completing a string of fives is a temptation that no player can refuse!
"No, seeing this starter from the Seattle SuperSonics makes me want to play against the SuperSonics right away!"
Kobe was a little excited when he saw the excitement and desire on the faces of James, Cousins, and John Wall on TV.
Not only him, but Bynum, Randolph, and even Paul George and Deron Williams next to him are eager to try.
Phil Jackson also frowned as he watched his players next to him eager to try a series of fives against the SuperSonics.
The current Seattle SuperSonics do seem to be very easy to bully.
On the NBA stage, if you don't have an insider, you are easy to bully.
An excellent insider is the courage of a team no matter what era he is in!
If you don’t have the courage, you won’t be able to be strong.
Phil Jackson understands this truth, and he doesn't believe that Nelson doesn't understand it. In other words, Nelson has someone in his heart who can support his courage and courage without the need for inside players.
What is it that supports Nelson's courage and courage?
Phil Jackson was curious.
"If I'm overthinking it, and it's actually Nelson who has Alzheimer's disease, then Yes and the Sonics will be very sad this season!"
Phil Jackson can be sure that those madmen in the NBA will tear Seattle apart without inside protection. Even Yes will never be able to stop these people's ambitions. Even Yes, who has not played for three years, will make these people even more desperate. ambitious!
Just think about how after the end of the season, Leonard and Antetokounmpo, two players who were forced to be promoted by Nelson, were beaten from beginning to end by the strong men of the NBA. In the end, they collapsed, their eyes were blank, and their faces looked desperate. Phil Jackson couldn't bear the look.
Nelson was indeed a little careless about his dream.
How could they, still a group of simple children, withstand the ravages of those ambitious and reckless men, and be beeped by the entire alliance in turn?
The game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Cavaliers is very, very big.
In an ordinary regular season, there are not only commentators from the United States such as TNT, but also commentators from almost all countries that broadcast the NBA.
No way, this game is more than just a comeback battle for Yes.
At the same time, James has been doing things before the game.
"James took the initiative to postpone receiving the championship ring until the end of the game, just to let Yes continue to look up to him after defeating Yes. What is Yes's attitude towards him, and what is his attitude towards Yes? LeBron James It’s too arrogant and too undisguised!”
"Charles, you are overthinking. How could James want to humiliate Yes? He just wants to embellish his glory with Yes, his best confidant."
Looking at Barkley's current expression, Kenny Smith found it interesting.
He couldn't wait to see James throw his fans into the sky after the game and dominate the world under the gaze of Yes!
After holding it in for so many years, if you can't do it so arrogantly, what's the difference between it and salted fish?
LeBron just wants to humiliate Yes, and your incompetence and rage are of no use.
Because, in the arena of competitive sports, weakness is the original sin!
Who makes the Seattle SuperSonics weak now?
Seeing Antetokounmpo being beaten by a thick eyebrow on a jump ball on the court, and seeing Leonard standing next to James as fragile as a boat, Kenny Smith was full of sympathy.
Not only do I sympathize with these two weaklings, but I also sympathize with Yes!
"However, it's no one's fault. It's all your own fault!"
"Let this game be used as the background and props for LeBron James to dominate the world, great Yes!"
Kenny Smith kept roaring in his heart.
On the court, after beating Antetokounmpo with a thick eyebrow jump ball, John Wall quickly dribbled the ball forward.
The Cavaliers had no doubt that the thick eyebrow jump ball defeated Antetokounmpo, so they had already started preparing to attack before the thick eyebrow jump ball succeeded.
Especially in this game, Cousins, who wanted to be the first Cavaliers to complete a five-game series against the SuperSonics, was already going crazy to the basket.
Seeing such positive Cousins, James frowned, and finally chose to stand outside the three-point line and leave the inside to him.
After noticing James' position, John Wall was a little surprised, and then lobbed the ball to Cousins who was already sitting under the basket, stuck Leonard behind him.
Cousins is very capable of attacking with the ball, which John Wall certainly knows.
And Leonard, this is a perfect opponent!
For Cousins, he is the perfect opponent to ravage at will.
Maybe for Cousins now, it's just steamed or braised, or made into a salad dressing.
Anyway, Leonard is now a piece of meat on the chopping board and can be manipulated at will.
"Leonard was defending his opponent just now, but because of the Cavaliers' fast break, Leonard had to quickly let go of James to cover the defensive position of Antetokounmpo, who failed to jump ball with thick eyebrows. Leonard's The replacement is very skillful. From this replacement, we can see what tactics Nelson wants to play on the defensive end, and we can also see that Leonard is indeed a very solid defensive player."
"However, Leonard is still too fragile for Cousins!"
"Leonard won't be able to wait for other Seattle SuperSonics players to come over and attack him, and he will be crushed by Cousins!"
"Leonard can't stop even one attack from Cousins!"
Cousins is very excited now, he wants to become the brightest star in this game!
This time, completing a series of five against the Sonics before James can allow him to start his Cavaliers career perfectly!
A series of five, starting with Leonard, then going to Antetokounmpo, then to James Harden, then to Durant, and finally to Yes. This is the most perfect route, sweeping through these stations one by one. With anyone in front of him, he can become the king of this game!
"I want to be the king of this game!"
The more Cousins thought about it, the more excited he became. After two consecutive dribbles, he finally used the force he thought could crush Leonard and leaned toward Leonard behind him.
In Cousins' mind, after knocking Leonard away, he can dunk directly!
The other Cavaliers players standing on the outside to open up space for Cousins saw envy on their faces when they saw Cousins like this.
"This kid is really lucky. He bumped into someone weak as soon as he came up."
Leonard, Antetokounmpo, James Harden, Durant, Yes!
They also want to go from weak to strong and string together all five Sonics!
"Next, let's just quietly enjoy Cousins' powerful turn and dunk!"
Not only the Cavaliers players on the court, but also the Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue on the sidelines, and even the benches on the Cavaliers bench on the sidelines are now preparing to celebrate, and the crazy Cavaliers fans at the scene are also already at this time. He paused his cheering, held his breath, and prepared to cheer louder and explosively.
"Cousins will crush Leonard like a bully!"
Kenny Smith stood up excitedly as Buckley shivered!
Yes, Seattle SuperSonics, welcome the new world!
Kenny Smith's face was filled with fervor.
Snap!
When a crisp sound of handballing was heard, Kenny Smith's eyes were shrinking rapidly, and the fanatical expression on his face had solidified.
"Steal?!"
Not to mention Kenny Smith, the Cavaliers fans who were already ready to cheer, and the coconut flour reporters who were already ready to mourn Leonard being crushed by Cousins are now all dumbfounded!
"In this situation where Cousins is completely stuck in position, can he suddenly get stuck in position to complete the cut and steal the moment Cousins turns around?!"
They were dumbfounded. Not only the audience was dumbfounded.
Even Cousins himself was dumbfounded.
His skills at the basket are naturally not as good as players like Nowitzki and Yao Ming who have reached their peak without any flaws, but even if they are not perfect, they are definitely top-notch!
With such a first-class offense under the basket, coupled with the advantage of playing inside and outside, how could it be possible for this kid to steal and cut the ball? !
And it was so steady and ruthless, without any lag, not even his fingertips touched it, it was so clean and perfect!
Others are shocked now, and as the person involved, he is even more shocked than these people.
Because Leonard's steal of him was so perfect, so perfect that he even felt that Leonard's steal couldn't be luck, but a manifestation of strength!
A manifestation of strength? !
How could this kid have such strong defensive strength? !
Without super-class defensive strength, it would be impossible to do it. Even with Pippen's historic defensive ability, he wouldn't be able to do this easily!
The timing and technique were just perfect.
It was so perfect that he, a hot-tempered and irritable person, couldn't find any reason to be angry and irritable with him.
Because he felt that his offense and this kid's defense were not on the same level!
"This defense is perfect!"
Across the screen and so far apart, Popovich and Bowen stood up at the same time in disbelief.
The two people who stood up looked at each other, because they felt in Leonard the same aura as Bowen, the kind of aura that elevates defense to an artistic level!
Moreover, when Bowen raised his defense to an artistic level, he was already old, his physical talent had declined, and he could no longer support his artistic level of defense, so that he was constantly humiliated by Yes.
And this kid, how old is he? !
He is only 22 years old!
How strong a defensive talent is this? !
This is so shocking!
Just when everyone was shocked by Leonard's defense, a huge roar suddenly came from the entire scene that seemed to be frozen!
When everyone turned their attention to the roaring direction, Seattle's No. 14 had already hung his hands on the basket!
After Leonard cut the ball under the basket, he passed the ball directly throughout the court!
"Not only has his defense reached an artistic level, but his passing has also reached a star level!"
Looking at the young man wearing the No. 15 jersey on TV, with a dull expression on his face and shy eyes, but also extremely determined, Popovich and Bowen felt that their hearts were beating so fast that they felt like they couldn't breathe.
It's like he's going to die at any time.
They were originally because of the humiliation Rondo brought to them. After they laid off Rondo in shame, everything ended.
But when they saw the Sonics No. 15 on TV, they knew that the humiliation Rondo had brought them was far from over, or even just the beginning!
"How much did we pay for that bastard Rondo?!"
Popovich turned pale and roared, while Bowen next to him fell into the wheelchair behind him as if his soul was out of body.
At this moment, when Popovich, who was originally pale, looked at the replay of the attack that the camera failed to follow on TV, his originally pale face turned a trace of unhealthy redness, and his eyes seemed to bulge out in shock. !
At this time, Popovich was not the only one to look at the replay of this Sonics offense with this expression as if he had seen a ghost.
All the viewers in front of the TV, even all the viewers at the scene, even James and Anthony, all looked blankly at the big screen. Yes and John Wall started running at the same time, rushing forward at the same time, accelerating at the same time. It broke out at the same time, and in the end Yes was getting faster and faster, and John Wall rushed to the free throw line and saw the desperate fall when Yes had taken off!
Looking at Yes, who had come down from the blue frame at this time, John Wall was still lying on the ground.
He has always been proud of his speed, but he lost so completely...
Yess walked gently past John Wall, and the silent world became even quieter, as if the only sound left was the sound of Yess's sneakers scraping the floor as he walked.
Such rhythmic whispers seemed to hit the hearts of all the Cavaliers players and fans present.
He is really back!
Fifteen seconds after the game started, the looks on the faces of the players on both sides of the court were shocking.
"In the end, who is the prey..."
