Chapter 786: All-Star Major Overhaul and Rocket's Difficulties!

After the Seattle SuperSonics defeated the New York Knicks at home, the Seattle SuperSonics felt that the atmosphere of the team was not so urgent.

Before the game against the New York Knicks, the SuperSonics players could clearly feel that Ye Si was in a hurry.

For example, those anxious training requirements for James Harden in training, for example, some training requirements for Rondo, Milicic, and Ibaka.

It looks like Yees wants something from the other Seattle SuperSonics.

In the eyes of these Seattle SuperSonics players who were asked by Yes, they certainly don't feel that this is what Yes wants to achieve.

In the eyes of these people, they all feel that Ye Si hopes that they can grow better during this period when the schedule is not very tight.

After all, the current situation of the Seattle superSonics is indeed very good.

Although the 23-12 record is a little far from the top five Lakers, Spurs, Nuggets, Mavericks and Grizzlies in the West, the Seattle SuperSonics are also some distance away from the Houston Rockets, who are ninth in the West.

Now in the entire Western Conference, except for the sixth-place SuperSonics who are 23-12, the Suns, who are seventh in the league, now have a 20-13 record, while the Timberwolves, who are eighth, are 20-14, and the Houston Rockets, who just lost to the Boston Celtics, are 20-16.

The Houston Rockets lost to the 76ers in a wave of successive losses, and after the Celtics' consecutive defeats on the Eastern road trip, the record fell directly from eighth to ninth, and the Timberwolves, who have been competing with the Seattle SuperSonics for the eighth position in the West, actually entered the top eight in the West, but the opponent defeated was not the Seattle SuperSonics, but the Rockets.

I have to say, this is really a bit dramatic.

It is precisely because of the very good competitive environment of the Seattle SuperSonics now, coupled with the fact that this period is a long period of recuperation for away and strong team tours, so many superSonics players will feel that when the team is resting, Yes urgently hopes that they can change and improve themselves.

It is precisely because of Yess that he has such expectations and requirements.

Whether it's James Harden or someone else, every SuperSonics player wants to see Yees improve and grow.

But this game with the New York Knicks really gave them a head start!

After the game against the New York Knicks, they were ridiculed again after not being ridiculed for a long time as garbage.

No way, against a team like the New York Knicks, the opponent puts all the attention on defending Yes, and Yes's passing is also very exciting and timely, but what is your performance on the offensive end?

According to many experts and netizens, even CBA players can collapse in three quarters of the game!

Nima's, the supersonic to defeat such a New York Knicks, actually needs Yes to get the legendary data of double 30, which is simply spicy eyes.

Not to mention those media reporters and experts, even if they are not the first coconut fans and the first supersonic fan, they are not fifteen or second, after this game with the New York Knicks, they all directly typed a word on their Twitter.

"Trash!"

To put it succinctly, underneath that is a back photo of Yes and Durant standing side by side.

It's not fifteen is second, the meaning of this tweet is already very, very obvious, that is, without Durant's supersonics, except for Yes, everyone else is rubbish!

In the entire supersonic, the only one who can really stand with Durant and call him a comrade-in-arms is Durant, and no one else deserves to appear in this photo.

Being hacked like this by their own fans is really quite uncomfortable, but the supersonic players who want to find out and beat up this player who is not fifteen is the second suddenly feel that there is really no problem with the statement that it is not fifteen or second.

In this game with the New York Knicks, they really lived up to Yes's expectations.

Yes wants them to improve, but the end result is that they miss out on such a precious opportunity to progress and grow and show themselves.

Against the New York Knicks, how many opportunities they have by Yes's side!

But what a chance they wasted!

In the NBA, where the schedule is so tight, how many opportunities can you have to show your growth and find your confidence in a season!

After missing this opportunity, they thought that Yes, who had been a little anxious recently, had returned to its usual normal state, and the urgent expectations for them were gone.

"Mark, did you say yes disappointed in me?"

Looking at Yes, who was doing strange dribbling exercises alone, James Harden had a look of loss on his face.

It's been two days in a row, and Yes hasn't asked him to take a shot right after receiving the ball.

Quite the last game against the New York Knicks, James Harden was quite disappointed and disappointed, and that was not the performance he wanted.

"Yes is not only disappointed in James, but also in us......"

After Marc Gasol finished speaking, Ingles and Ibaka next to him nodded.

And the looks of these three people make James Harden a little unacceptable.

Forget about Ibaka, Mark and Joe, you are all substitutes for the last game of the team, okay!

You have the right to disappoint Yes!

But now is not the time to worry about these things.

The most important thing now is how to make up for the position that Yes may have slipped.

It's just that......

When he thinks of facing a team like the New York Knicks, he can't be decisive on offense, so can he be decisive when facing the Rockets and Roy?

In other words, when facing the New York Knicks, his shooting is not very bright, and he needs to rely on fouls to score, but can he still face the Rockets when he suddenly feels smart and can throw away the fouls?

James Harden felt that he could finally defeat his evil body, which was always trying to make fouls.

In the future, when he grows to the strongest, he will definitely be a player who scores with hard power, and definitely not a player who scores by making fouls.

But this is the future!

In the present......

There is really no way to show his scoring power against the Rockets.

Not only can't you come out tactically in the face of the Rockets, but you can't show it in the face of the Timberwolves!

Thinking of this, James Harden sighed for a while.

After playing this game against the New York Knicks, the SuperSonics players are thinking a little bit more about it right now.

Ye Si didn't have that many ideas.

After failing to complete the task of assisting his teammates to score 100 points in the game against the New York Knicks, Yes gave up completely.

The New York Knicks were the best team to brush in the regular season, but he ended up scoring 85 points with only an assist for his teammates.

It's 15 points away from 100 points, which doesn't seem very high, but it's a moat.

Without an opponent like the New York Knicks, Yes has no intention of continuing to complete this mission in the supersonic.

As for the All-Star Game......

That's a completely different way of thinking, after all, teammates and opponents are already completely different levels.

What's more, according to the latest available information, the league seems to be preparing to reform this year's All-Star Game.

At this year's All-Star Game in Phoenix, it was learned from some journalists close to the league that the league will announce a reform of the All-Star this year at the same time as the final results of the All-Star voting are announced.

It seems that there is an all-star meaning that there is no distinction between East and West.

After the starters of this year's All-Star Game are selected, the two most popular players will be designated to become the captains of the All-Stars, and then the captain will select his teammates from the other eight players in the starting lineup, and after selecting the starting teammates, he will continue to select the remaining 14 points to replace his teammates.

According to the results of the second round of All-Star voting announced by the league.

The two captains of the All-Star will be Ye Si and Yao Ming, and this year's All-Star Game will also be divided into 'Team Ye' and 'Team Yao'.

This kind of reform of the All-Star Game will indeed increase a lot of fun, no longer limited to the East and West, and there will be a lot of interesting stories and selection stories in the two teams.

But at the same time, for Yes, it creates a very, very much uncertainty about the accomplishment of his mission.

Of course, this is just a rumor, and now the alliance has not announced whether it is going to be reformed.

However, the very core news from Yees is that the league is ready to achieve this major overhaul at this year's Phoenix All-Star.

So after this reform is completed, Yao Ming, who was originally his teammate and a perfect target for him to brush assists, will become his opponent......

And as an opponent, Yao Ming is really, really a very big obstacle.

On January 8, 2009, the Seattle SuperSonics hosted the Rockets, who had lost two straight games from the East.

The Rockets have really had a little bit of a bad idea in recent times.

For many Western teams, they really didn't expect the East to be so strong this season.

"Little leaves, the heel we planted in the east this year is too big......"

Before the game began, Yao Ming looked depressed.

Without Maddie, without Artest, without Ariza, it's really too depressing for the Rockets.

Although the Rockets led by Yao Ming and Roy are still very strong, coupled with the performance of strongmen such as Scola, Gerard Wallace, Aaron Brooks, etc., the Rockets are still a very strong team, but the dominance is really not comparable to last season.

The strength of the Rockets has greatly declined, but because of the god-like regular season performance of the Rockets last season, this makes the Rockets almost the third largest target in addition to the SuperSonics and the Heat.

Therefore, although many Western teams have been pitted in the East this year, the Rockets have been the worst in the East.

In this game with the Hypersonics, the Rockets don't have to think about being cheated because they don't know and are unfamiliar.

Because the two teams are so familiar.

This game of supersonic and rockets.

The SuperSonics' starting lineup is back to normal, with James Harden coming down from the starting line and Millsap back in the starting lineup.

Rondo, Yes, Ibaka, Millsap, Milicic, this is the traditional starting lineup of the SuperSonics.

The starting lineup on the Rockets' side is center Yao Ming, power forward Scola, small forward Gerard Wallace, scoring guard Roy, and playmaking guard Aaron Brooks.

Compared to last season's strong starting lineup, Aaron Brooks and Scola have entered the starting lineup this season.

Although the two of them entered the starting lineup and the Rockets' defense declined, the Rockets' offense actually did not decline much, and the two of Scola and Brooks have performed quite well this season.

Aaron Brooks can average 17 points and 3 assists per game this season, the offense is quite strong and unreasonable, Roy controls the tempo, Aaron Brooks is waiting for opportunities next to him, and the Rockets' guard combination is quite well tuned by Adelman.

And the interior Scola is not very inferior to Aaron Brooks, this season by Yao Ming's side can contribute an average of 18 points per game, and the shooting rate is very, very high, with Yao Ming suppressing the opponent on the inside, Scola can get a lot of one-on-one shots and opportunities to use his feet to tear apart the opponent under the basket.

This interior combination of Yao Ming and Scola may even be one of the strongest interior combinations in the league, comparable to the interior combination of O'Neal and David Lee.

Aaron Brooks and Scola are both players who can compete for the most improved player this season.

In addition to the 18 points, 10 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block of Gerald Wallace, who has become the core of the Rockets' outside defense because of the departure of Maddie and Artest this season, and Roy's 23 points and 7 assists, Yao Ming's 25 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 2.5 blocks, it can be said that although the style of the Rockets this season is different from last season, the offensive strength of the starters is extremely strong!

The reason why the Rockets' record has fluctuated so much this season is entirely because the team's bench and depth have dropped too much, and Maddie and Artest and Ariza are gone, and the bench depth for the Rockets has dropped too much.

The starting strong bench is not good, the rocket needs to play to the end, but even if Yao Ming loses weight, he is still a big center, and his physical strength is still a problem, similarly, although Roy has no problem with physical strength, his playing time has always been in a limited state.

Therefore, in the Rockets' game, many times, you will see that in addition to Roy and Yao Ming, there will be Aaron Brooks who will decide the outcome of the game......

Roy and Yao Ming have no problem handling the final offense, but what about Aaron Brooks......

This little defender works hard, but ......

So, many teams play the Rockets, it's a strategy, grinding, dragging, as long as you play to the end, as long as the Rockets' ball eventually needs to be handled by Aaron Brooks, the opportunity comes.

And this is where the hope of supersonic defeat of the rocket lies.
