"Boss, are Sean and Gary okay now?"

The Houston Rockets defeated the SuperSonics on the road to become the only team other than the Lakers to advance to the Western Conference Finals, which is indeed a commendable achievement for the Rockets, after all, the team has been able to reach the division finals for the second year in a row, which is already one of the best eras in the history of this team.

Of course, such a team with three superstars, if it can't enter the division finals, it will be an absolute failure, so such a result is really not very good for the Rockets, for this team that has formed three superstars, their goal is probably only the championship, and other results are meaningless, after all, they are not young teams like the Lakers and SuperSonics, young teams like the Lakers, SuperSonics and Nuggets, they have a future, and the Rockets are either { Teams like the Spurs and the Jazz, they don't have much time for the core players to grow with the team, starting from the day the season starts, whether it's really strong or not. They're all aiming for the championship, the difference is. A stronger team like the Rockets has a higher thirst for a championship, while a slightly less powerful team like the Spurs has a slightly lower thirst for a championship.

It's just that. Even so, defeating a rather suffocating opponent like SuperSonics in such a suffocating series is probably quite exciting for the Rockets, after all, they are in a much more dangerous situation than the Lakers in this series, and they are really facing the threat of being eliminated by the other side at the end of the game, so, after this game, It was almost clear from the TV that the Rockets' players were no worse than when they and the Lakers beat the Spurs on the road. For these veterans of the Rockets, this series win is also quite lucky.

Of course, the Rockets feel quite fortunate to beat the SuperSonics, and think that it is quite difficult for them to win, if it weren't for Barkley's continuous explosion in the playoffs, this game finally really stubbornly broke down the opponent's defense, then the Rockets, who were in huge trouble in this series, may really lose, so they are quite excited now, and obviously. The Rockets feel quite excited to win the good and win the hard to win, and the more difficult it is for the superSonics to accept.

Although in terms of the current situation of the Lakers, facing the Rockets is about the same as facing the superSonics. But after all, the two leading players of the SuperSonics, Payton and Kemp, are friends of Lin Han, yesterday. After the Lakers eliminated the Spurs, these two superSonics players personally called to congratulate Lin Han. Even Lin Han can still clearly feel the confidence of Kemp and Payton to defeat the Rockets yesterday after talking about Lin Han's team after entering the Western Conference Finals.

To know. Now this company, the confrontation between new players and old players is not only that many old players like to bully new players in the regular season, many old players in many teams like to bully new players, and it is definitely not just this summer, when the league re-signed the collective bargaining agreement, there was civil unrest in the players' union, and many old players demanded the wages of rookie players, and more importantly, the problem of the replacement of the old and new in the entire league!

For a long time in front, the entire NBA was almost dominated by old players, since Jordan, although there have been many super young players in the league, but whether it is Ewing or David Robinson, although they have a great reputation, but they lack sharpness, or in other words, although they are strong, but because the early results are quite average, there is no courage and ability to destroy the inherent system of the league like Jordan, so it is impossible to form a trend with Jordan to suppress old players with new players, In Jordan's confrontation between the old and the new represented by Jordan, Jordan was completely defeated by Thomas, Larry Bird and Magic Abdul-Jabbar and other strongmen, although the Pan 84 generation is now talked about, but there is no doubt that whether it is Jordan, Olajuwon or David Robinson or Ewing, in that era was not qualified to compare with Thomas, Larry Bird and Magic or Abdul-Jabbar and others, so the trend of the confrontation between the old and the new was extremely unsuccessful for new players.

In this era when the annual salary system is too beneficial to new players, the confrontation between new and old players has almost reached a white-hot era, after Jordan's failure to impact the inherent structure of the league, the entire NBA is almost controlled by the league's league bigwigs, and even almost from generation to generation, although there are still many extremely young outstanding players, such as O'Neal in previous seasons, this is also a strongman and also has the impact of Jordan at the beginning, but because the newcomer is not well organized, When Jordan was young, it was difficult for him to organize super rookies such as Olajuwon and Ewing to cooperate with him, not to mention O'Neal, in the end, O'Neal defeated the major superstars and won the league's weekly award as soon as he entered the league arrogantly, and soon after challenging the three centers at the time, he was taught by the three centers to be a man, faster than Jordan's failure.

Although O'Neal's impact came and went quickly, it was the second young player after Jordan who really had the ability and fighting spirit to really challenge the inherent structure of the league.

It's just that after O'Neal's defeat, all the experts in the entire league think that these rookies or young players in the league with the highest salaries will be bullied by the league's bigwigs like Jordan and Olajuwon and others were bullied back then. Unexpectedly, Lin Han suddenly rose, and Lin Han's rise simply broke the power structure that the alliance had been prevalent for I don't know how many years. You know, it's been an unknown number of years for the league bosses to bully newcomers. When Chamberlain was in the era, Chamberlain had a lot of conflicts with those young people, among which Chamberlain's play of Walter Bellamy even became a classic drama in the entire NBA, and the much-talked-about Chamberlain blocked the sky hook and the sky hook played Olajuwon are all from the NBA's customs, young people like to find veterans to fight, and veterans also like to play with young people, just because at that time everyone was still relatively simple, there was not much money factor, and everyone didn't get much salary. Naturally, there is no need to be hostile to each other, so at that time, veterans bullied young people, basically quite disciplined, Chamberlain bullied Bellamy or Abdul-Jabbar, that is because these two people did blow up the sky, and these two people did challenge or provoke Abdul-Jabbar to fight for the position of the league's first center, in this case, of course, Chamberlain also wants to let these people see their own strength, this is a very righteous and positive competition, not like Rodman who occupies his own strength. Experienced, and not even bullying tough young people who challenge his position, this guy even has some role players who have no influence on the law or who are not as provocative as him and who do not threaten his status, spreading the contradiction between new and old players directly and indiscriminately. This is really evil compared to the time of Chamberlain and Abdul-Jabbar.

According to many journalists, experts and even fans, what players like Rodman Pippen and other players who hate young people because of their salary is almost equivalent to indiscriminate slaughter, and this atmosphere is completely different from the atmosphere of Chamberlain's and Jabbar's generation. In this case, the confrontation between the old and the new in the entire NBA is naturally becoming more and more intense. And it's getting more and more intense over time, even like Jordan. The fighter who resisted tyranny back then eventually became an accomplice, Jordan and the allusions to the young players are probably the most in the entire NBA, no matter what, there is no way, everyone stands in a different position, just like this summer's collective bargaining agreement, Jordan is on the side of the player, he will definitely stand on the side of the player at this time, if one day, Jordan becomes the owner of the team, I am afraid he will have to think about how to bully the players over the years, the same, Jordan was a young man back then, and now Jordan is no longer a young man, The location is naturally different.

Moreover, this summer's collective bargaining agreement, if the NBA does not have Lin Han, this storm of confrontation between the old and the new has not been blown up by Lin Han, then the issue of salary restrictions for rookie players and young players may not even be discussed in the players' union, these young people with high salaries have almost no actual status in the entire league, these veterans almost do whatever they want, even if you let your salary in the first four years take the fixed salary of migrant workers, you have to accept it, because these veterans control the league, They can choose to have their next contract unrestricted.

But now, because of the storm that the young players have blown under the leadership of Lin Han, such harsh conditions are impossible, for Jordan and other bigwigs, they insist that rookie young people get a fixed salary, and the Mesozoic generation gets a limited salary for more than four years in the NBA, so that these bigwigs who have been in the NBA for seven or eight years do not have any salary restrictions, this kind of thing is impossible to achieve.

After all, the storm of young players that Lin Han blew up is really not inferior to the team led by those bigwigs in terms of strength, and the pattern of the entire league is no longer the final say of those bigwigs.

For example, in this year's semifinals between the East and the West, the Rockets in the West faced the SuperSonics, which is a confrontation between the old and the new, and the Lakers faced the Spurs, which was also a confrontation between the old and the new, and the Bulls against the Heat and the Magic against the Pacers on the Eastern side were still a confrontation between the old and the new!

Therefore, after the first round of the playoffs this year, when the expert media in the league watched this matchup, almost all of them were dumbfounded, or in the eyes of these people, this matchup was too coincidental, all of them were new and old confrontations, isn't this equivalent to the NBA's official refereeing of new players and old players in the players' union? Don't fight for anything anymore, distribute the benefits with the winners and losers of these four groups of matches this time, and distribute the benefits according to which side can win the final championship in this year's finals. This is definitely the fairest, although such claims are only the claims of the media and fans. The players' union doesn't approve of it, but it's actually in the hearts of all NBA players. They actually agree with this statement, after all, compared to endless quarrels, the players' union only has two choices, either or to ask for a bigger cake with those team owners, which is almost impossible, the share occupied by the players is fixed, so in the end they can only take the route of internal competition, whether it is more new players or more Mesozoic or more old players, it depends on everyone's ability. Of course, it was Jordan and other bigwigs who were too greedy and wanted to limit the wages of rookie young people and the middle generation, and finally forced Peyton and Kemp and other middle generation players to stand on the side of the young people to fight against them. But they all belong to the old age and decay type, if under the same conditions, fools know who should be given the highest annual salary, and there is really no limit to anything. Those young people have been threatening to change jobs and not sign contracts, and they are afraid that they will get worse and worse, after all. As in the playoffs, young people are the same as young teams. They have plenty of time to be capital for them, so. Although the veterans' plan is a little greedy, but there is no way, they need to recover the lost money for their high salary at the end of the past many years, no one is stupid.

Therefore, this year's playoffs may seem to be exactly the same as ordinary playoffs, and there is not much difference from the past, but in reality, the entire league is in an extremely violent vortex.

Not to mention that Lin Han and others are friends with Payton, even if they are not friends, in this case, everyone is quite close, and it is definitely not polite or that the Lakers are easier to deal with when Payton and Kemp were happy for Lin Han and the Lakers yesterday.

That's really quite happy that the Lakers can eliminate the Spurs, and Lin Han can beat David Robinson, because after the Lakers beat the Spurs, if they also beat the Rockets today, this summer's new collective bargaining agreement, within the players' union, the position of those veteran bigwigs will definitely be replaced by a league of young and middle generation players, even if they don't oppress those bigwigs, according to the existing player salary agreement, they are quite advantageous, after the league signs a new broadcast agreement, The league's broadcast fee has almost doubled, I don't know how many times, and the league's salary cap is obviously going to more than double to nearly $35 million, and their new contract is definitely jumping at tens of millions, which is a multimillion-dollar benefit.

Therefore, as long as the Rockets and Spurs are eliminated, even if Jordan and the Bulls are dominant in the East, the general trend of the entire league is already under the control of young people, so whether it is Lin Han and Peytonkamp or O'Neal Hardaway and Mourning, everyone has a very close connection in the playoffs this season.

Of course, these young people are quite closely connected, and of course the same is true for those veterans, and after the Spurs are eliminated and the Rockets eliminate the SuperSonics, the situation on the Western side is once again evenly matched!

Similarly, the confrontation between new and old players has almost reached a fever pitch in the West, at least when Lin Han was calling to comfort Payton and Kemp, these two actually didn't care about being sad, and directly said to Lin Han that they hope that the Lakers will do their best to stop the Rockets, obviously, the SuperSonics also know that the Rockets are strong, and the Lakers are likely not to be the opponents of the Rockets, so I hope Lin Han will go all out and can't have any reservations, which also makes Lin Han quite speechless.

After all, he was originally comforting these two friends, but in the end, he found that these two friends were staring at him at this time, and I have to say that young teams like the SuperSonics and the Lakers will accept failure so easily, and they also have enough capital to accept failure.

Of course, after the SuperSonics were eliminated by the Rockets, the situation in the entire Western Conference Finals is also clear, and the Lakers will face a strong opponent like the Rockets in the Finals, and there will be a big battle that could decide a new collective bargaining agreement this summer.

The West side is quite nervous, and the East side is not much better, and the next game after the Rockets and SuperSonics game is the game between the Magic team in second place in the East and the Pacers in third place in the East.

In this round of matchups, the Magic team also played quite uneasy, because O'Neal, a super tank, also met a player who made him quite uncomfortable in the playoffs, Dale Davis, almost the same as Olajuwon, O'Neal also struggled a lot, but a little better is that Dale Davis is not Camp after all, although O'Neal played quite uncomfortable, but after breaking through the first round of the Cavaliers, the confidence of the Magic team's leading player in the playoffs is indeed a lot higher. There hasn't been a lot of tangle in the playoffs like last season.

In addition, the overall strength of the Magic team is indeed a little higher than that of the Pacers, so although this round of the series is also very intense, in the sixth game between the two sides, the Magic team defeated the Pacers 116-102 on the road, becoming the last team to enter the division finals.

And when the Magic team enters the division finals, the Eastern Conference Finals matchup also appears, the Bulls will face the Magic, and this round of the series is also a confrontation between the old and the new!

That is to say, after the divisional semifinals, the divisional finals, whether it is the theme of the east and west, there is still no change, it is still the confrontation between the old and the new, and even the real confrontation between the old and the new, Eddie Jones and O'Neill and Hardaway, this is the most pink newcomer in the absolute sense!
