Chapter 751 Youth, Dreams and Depressed James

The Seattle SuperSonics defeated the Magic on the road on December 5th.

On the other side, the Timberwolves also defeated the Nets by a score of 103 on a road trip in the Eastern Conference on the same day.

After the two teams completed the game on December 5, their records once again returned to the same position, both with 12 wins and 8 losses.

December 6, 2008, was a very interesting day. On this day, there were back-to-back games between the Sonics and the Timberwolves. The game between the Timberwolves and the Heat preceded the game between the Sonics and the Hawks.

In other words, as long as the Timberwolves defeat the Cavaliers on the road, the Timberwolves will temporarily surpass the SuperSonics and rank eighth in the Western Conference.

However, for the Timberwolves, it is definitely not easy to defeat the Heat in this game.

In particular, the Heat are in urgent need of a victory. The Heat's current record is 18 wins and 2 losses. Although they are ranked first in the Eastern Conference and first in the league, the Heat's current record is far behind the Celtics, which is second in the Eastern Conference, and the Eastern Conference, which is ranked first. The advantage of the three Cavaliers is not that obvious.

If the Heat lose this game to the Timberwolves, the Heat are likely to give up their first place in the Eastern Conference to the Celtics.

This result is also absolutely unacceptable to the current Heat.

Therefore, James is really uncomfortable in this game with the Timberwolves!

After more than 20 games, the Seattle SuperSonics and yes have still not fallen from the eighth position in the Western Conference!

More than a quarter of the season has been played, and yes has still not given up on his fairy tale. The aura of yes has not been eclipsed. Yes is still moving forward with the garbage Ibaka.

In this game against the Timberwolves, he really wanted to push the Timberwolves, one of the unlucky losers, to the eighth place in the Western Conference. However, in the end, he could only reluctantly protect Yes and the SuperSonics, who were ranked eighth in the Western Conference. Eight position.

After defeating the Timberwolves 115-107 at home, there was no joy on James' face.

This made Wade on the side think that James was unhappy because the young Timberwolves caused so much trouble to the Heat in this game.

"It was a tough game, the Timberwolves were very strong, but in the end we won, didn't we?"

Thinking about getting an unwanted victory in this game,

How could James be happy, but after feeling that he seemed to be misunderstood by Wade, James quickly put away those thoughts in his heart.

"The Timberwolves are really good."

James nodded finally.

It's not that he's being hypocritical.

Although I have been complaining about the Timberwolves and Trail Blazers in my heart, even the Seattle SuperSonics, a team that has always been four-on-five, can't stop them.

But after this game, his impression of the Timberwolves did change a lot.

This is an almost perfect team except for some defensive issues.

In this game, the Heat were not only made uncomfortable by the Timberwolves, but they were also made uncomfortable by Gay.

Perhaps the one who suffered the least discomfort in this game for the entire Heat was Dwyane. Dwyane's ruthless suppression of Mayo in this game was the key to the team's victory.

Thinking that the key to the team's victory in this game was Dwyane, James' face revealed a trace of unhappiness that no one noticed. Of course, such unhappiness disappeared as quickly as it came.

James can feel that Dwyane's style of play this season has been giving way to him, but...

Dwyane will not hold back when faced with victory or defeat, especially in tough games.

Dwyane, who does not hold back any force, is indeed more dazzling than him when facing strong teams and difficult opponents.

Of course, his data this season is the best in the team, but if you remove the data when facing weak teams, and only when facing strong teams, or at critical moments, his performance and data cannot surpass Germany. Wynn.

James is also very clear about Dwyane's strength. Dwyane is powerful and has excellent physical talent. Coupled with his excellent condition, he has not encountered any major injuries since coming to the NBA. It can be said that now Dwyane is in his prime!

When Dwyane was at his peak, James didn't think anyone else in the league could beat Dwyane except Yes in terms of hard power.

What's more, he was very touched and grateful that Dwyane was willing to let him go in normal times.

It is impossible to ask Dwyane to continue to let him in key games and difficult games. The reason why the two of them cooperated in the Heat is to win!

Thinking of this, James also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It doesn't matter, as long as we play in the playoffs and make the playoffs and finals into simple games, I will still be the protagonist!

The reason why this game was so difficult against the Timberwolves, apart from the surprising strength of the Timberwolves, is mainly because the Heat are still in the running-in period!

By the time the playoffs are over, the Heat's running-in period is over, and he doesn't think any team can create difficulties for the Heat.

In the game between the Heat and the Timberwolves, the Timberwolves' loss and the Heat's win helped relieve the pressure on the Seattle SuperSonics.

In the recent battle between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Timberwolves, the Timberwolves have always been the first to appear. As the first team to appear, no matter whether the opponent they face is strong or weak, they have the pressure to win. , otherwise you are leaving your destiny in the hands of your competitors.

The Timberwolves' loss gave the Seattle SuperSonics a long-lost feeling of being in control of their own destiny.

The Hawks, like the Magic, are the opponents the Seattle SuperSonics have encountered for the second time this season.

However, unlike the last time they played against each other, Howard and the Magic initially wanted to use Ye's "reverse scale" to defeat Ibaka. The Hawks gave in from the beginning and asked Joe Johnson to personally come off the court to teach Ibaka. Coach Ibaka.

Joe Johnson and the Hawks were also the first team to give in directly to Leafs' 100-point threat.

In this second meeting with the Eagles this season, the Eagles did not change the situation from the last time the two teams met.

Although Joe Johnson is not very willing to play the role of a teacher on the court, facing the request of the team's head coach Mike Woodson, Joe Johnson can only continue to choose to accept it.

Not giving in to Joe Johnson, but the Eagles really need to win!

The fate of irritating yes is the fate of the Magic!

The Eagles don't have enough strength to defeat the SuperSonics and win after irritating Yes.

He didn't like this choice very much, but there was no doubt that it was the most realistic and wisest choice.

Even this choice will still be ridiculed by many people.

Joe Johnson is not an eccentric person. He actually doesn't mind educating some promising players on the court, but a twenty-year-old player like Ibaka who knows nothing obviously cannot be said to have a future.

Although he and Mike Woodson continued to praise Ibaka before the game, they seemed to believe that they really educated Ibaka because of his talent, not because of the threat of yes.

It's just that at the end of the game between the Eagles and the Seattle SuperSonics, Joe Johnson's feeling in this game was completely different from the feeling after the previous confrontation between the two teams.

"I lost in the end..."

For the result of this game, the Eagles lost to the Seattle SuperSonics 118-127, Eagles head coach Mike Woodson was quite regretful.

The Eagles have a great chance of winning this game.

This shows that it is the correct strategy to let Joe Johnson educate and guide Ibaka and cooperate with Yes to educate Ibaka.

No matter what others say, such a victory is definitely delicious.

Although I feel a little sorry for the team boss Joe Johnson, letting him accompany such a garbage game for the entire game.

Joe Johnson taught Ibaka as if Beethoven had succumbed to pressure and taught him how to play the piano, which was truly humiliating to Beethoven.

only……

"Jo, are you okay?"

After the game, Mike Woodson was a little surprised when he looked at SuperSonics No. 28 dripping with sweat.

Wouldn't Joe be crushed by Ibaka's idiots and weaklings?

"Maybe he really is a genius..."

"What?!"

Mike Woodson looked at Joe Johnson with a look of shock on his face that didn't look like he was faking it.

Joe Johnson couldn't really have been screwed, right?

We were just talking about it at the press conference, why do you take it seriously?

If this person is a genius, then the entire NBA is a genius!

Joe Johnson didn’t want to explain anything to Mike Woodson’s confusion and confusion.

In this game against the SuperSonics, Ibaka's performance surprised him. He was really surprised.

Compared with one month, Ibaka has made great progress!

Although there are still many bad habits in the game, maybe from the perspective of the game, Ibaka is still completely destroyed by him. With his current strength, Ibaka has 60 attributes and 50 attributes. What a difference.

But as someone who has directly played against Ibaka, he can clearly feel the changes in Ibaka in this game.

He is not the majority of people in the NBA who are insensitive to technology, he is one of the few people in the NBA who is very sensitive to technology!

He can really feel Ibaka's progress.

yes……

Joe Johnson withdrew his gaze from the figure on the back of No. 28 and focused on the figure on the back of No. 9.

What an amazing guy!

A player who was an idiot before the age of 20 has finally figured it out...

After three consecutive Eastern Conference road trips, the Leafs and the SuperSonics went to the Eastern Conference with the anxiety and pressure of potentially falling out of the top eight at any time.

And when Yeas returned to the West with the SuperSonics, what the Seattle SuperSonics brought back was a wave of three consecutive victories.

After winning three consecutive away games in the Eastern Conference, the Seattle SuperSonics' record has also become 21 wins and 8 losses. Although they are still eighth in the Western Conference, their eighth position has been stabilized.

"I knew there would be nothing wrong with the master!"

In the training hall of the University of Washington, Stephen Curry looked at Yes with admiration.

The same goes for other University of Washington players next to him.

As the group of people closest to the Seattle SuperSonics, they certainly know that the Seattle SuperSonics was really under pressure a week ago to the point of collapse.

The news they got from within the SuperSonics was that Rondo and many of the Seattle SuperSonics' militant faction had already taken action against Ibaka and were preparing to cripple Ibaka and let him lie on the hospital bed.

If the pressure hadn't been to the extreme, no matter how extreme that guy Rondo was, no matter how unwilling Yes was to be hurt, he wouldn't have jumped to that level.

At that time, not only Curry, but every player at the University of Washington was quite worried about whether the Seattle SuperSonics would really collapse before Yes could train Ibaka.

Now it seems that they are really too worried.

They don't know if Ibaka can be trained in the end, but the teacher's power is really beyond their imagination!

No wonder the master was able to teach them Coach Romar's five-small tactical system at the University of Washington when the Seattle SuperSonics encountered such difficulties.

"Master, I really want to stand on the NBA stage and compete with you earlier!"

"Not just Stephen, I want it too!"

"And I!"

"Me too!"

Looking at the excited University of Washington players around him, Yes was stunned for a moment.

Are you going to be my opponent?

Yes looked at Curry, Thompson, Green...

There are extremely familiar faces on each face, it was really a frustrating time.

"Soon."

Yes nodded.

"Of course it's coming soon, Master, we are sure to win this year's NCAA championship!"

"Master, we can appear in the NBA next season!"

The faces of Curry and the friends around him are full of anticipation, and the face of Ye Si is also full of anticipation.

"This is dream and youth!"

Although I have already graduated from the University of Washington, the atmosphere in the NCAA and the NBA are indeed completely different.

I hope that after these children go to the NBA, they can retain the dreams and youth that yes has created for them.

On December 8, 2008, the Seattle SuperSonics' first opponent back at home was the Warriors, who are still ranked last in the Western Conference.

After the Seattle SuperSonics lifted the team's crisis with a three-game winning streak in the Eastern Conference, this game against the Warriors was a must-win game.

The Warriors are rebuilding this season. The biggest purpose of this team this season seems to be to give Beasley unlimited firing rights and allow Beasley to grow rapidly.

Beasley's performance both off and on the court this season is worth the Warriors' desperate effort.

In this game against the Warriors, the Warriors still couldn't create any difficulties for the Sonics.

The final score was also 111 to 127, but Mike Beasley's performance in this game was quite outstanding.

Facing Ibaka Beasley, he once again scored 40+ points in this game.

The 40+ points in this game also made Beasley the second player after Yeas to score 20+ points in all the first 21 games of his career.

But this consecutive 20+ scoring record did not make Beasley happy.

After the game, Beasley complained directly to Durant on the sidelines.

"Kevin, I really don't want to!"

"But that old man West is so bad. He forced me to take action. If I don't score 20 points in a game, my salary will be deducted!"

"Holy shit, I have to protect my hit rate!"

"..."

It would be really miserable to do what yes does without the strength of yes.

but……

Want to protect your hits?

Do you have money?

Seeing Beasley forced to change his appearance because of money, Durant had sympathy on his face, but he was smiling in his heart.

"Hua Q, I will pay back the money later. If I don't get it back with the old man West, he will be my father!"

"..."

Durant, who was smiling in his heart, slowly changed his smile...
