Chapter 484: The Bond of Thunder and Supersonics, That Elbow of Style!
On January 14, 2008, the game between the SuperSonics and the Thunder was the second game of the season between the two teams.
However, this time the two teams played each other in a completely different situation than the last time.
This time, because the SuperSonics just beat the Mavericks, the Thunder can climb to the coveted top eight positions in the West as long as they beat the SuperSonics!
The current Thunder, the last time the New Orleans Hornets made the playoffs was back in the 03-04 season.
At that time, the name of the New Orleans Hornets was Charlotte Hornets.
At that time, the wasps were still in the east.
Four years passed in a flash, and during these four years, the Hornets felt that they were too miserable in NCAA's home camp of North Carolina, and if they continued to mix, they would only get worse and worse, so they ran from Charlotte to New Orleans.
Ran to New Orleans, played 04-05 in New Orleans for a season, from fifth in the East to the last in the West.
How to go from a team that finished fifth in the division to the bottom of the division?
It's simple, move from the east to the west, and you can do it.
The Hornets, the hapless team, is the most realistic example of a strong West and a weak East.
has been a strong team in the east for so many years, and running to the west because it can be mixed smoothly, and finally becoming the penultimate is not the end of the Hornets' bad luck, it is just the beginning of the Hornets' bad luck.
Moving from Charlotte to New Orleans, the Hornets are really ready to make a big splash.
It doesn't matter if you become the penultimate one, as long as you can rise in the future, it doesn't matter if it's all drizzle.
However, God did not give the Hornets any chance in New Orleans.
The Hornets played a season of disgrace in New Orleans after that.
The following year, Hurricane Katrina blew in the United States, and New Orleans became the largest affected area.
The team's current core player, Chris Paul, has not played a few serious games in New Orleans, and has spent most of his time in Goose City.
When I arrived in Goose City, this team that had been unlucky was able to get a little favor from God.
The two years in Goose City have been the happiest two years for the Hornets team.
Whether it was Charlotte, the home of the NCAA, or New Orleans, the Hornets didn't really enjoy the feeling of being watched and pampered by the whole city.
For Goose City, the Hornets were their first love in the NBA.
For the Hornets, Goose City is not their first time, the Hornets have experienced Charlotte and New Orleans, so to speak, Goose City is only their third time.
It's just that although Goose City is the third time for the Hornets, Goose City is also the first love of the Hornets.
Goose City and Wasp, the first time they met, fell in love with each other.
It's just that such beauty is always extremely short-lived.
After two happy years in Goose City, the wasp thought he was going back to his cold home.
The place they never wanted to go back to, but had to go back again.
Just when Wasp was ready to say goodbye to Goose City, a miracle happened.
Since 2006, a consortium led by Goose City, led by Clay Bennett, has been trying to acquire the Seattle SuperSonics.
Just when Clay Bennett and others were about to succeed, Yes was born in Seattle.
After the Seattle SuperSonics gave everything to the team in order to get Yes, and then brought in Bill Gates, the world's richest man, the Goose City consortium's acquisition of the Seattle SuperSonics completely failed.
The failed Goose City consortium did not give up on the idea of bringing in an NBA team for Goose City.
At this time, the New Orleans Hornets came into their sights.
One wants to sell, the other wants to buy, and the process of trading is quite fast.
The Wasp, who was about to leave Goose City, ended up miraculously staying in Goose City.
And in order to show that Wasp and Goose City are truly in love.
The Hornets threw everything from the past behind and simply changed their name to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Don't even want the name of the wasp.
What wasps are not wasps, that's the name I fell into the dust and didn't find true love.
Now that I've found true love, of course I can't ask for a name that can make people think of so many bad things.
Changing the name is a way to witness the love between Thunder and Goose City.
form in one way.
In addition to this formal way, the actual dedication between Goose City and Thunder to each other is also eye-catching.
Goose City is now one of the hottest home arenas in the NBA, one of the most enthusiastic home arenas.
At the same time, it is also one of the most devilish home fields.
The Thunder is the hardest working and craziest team in the NBA now, and they can't wait to give 200% of their ability to go all out in every game.
The Thunder's schedule ahead of the season wasn't great.
Although the strength of this team is very good, but because of the schedule, this team's prediction before the start of the season, as long as it maintains the impact of the playoffs in the first half, will definitely be in the top eight at the end of the season.
Now the Thunder is just ranked ninth in the West, which not only has an impact on the Western Conference playoffs, but also has a great impact.
As long as they can beat the SuperSonics at home in this game, they can move into eighth place in the West.
Thunder and Goose City, such two each other, now rub out quite amazing sparks.
If it weren't for this season's West, it's just too strong.
The Thunder's performance this season can shock the world!
If it weren't for Yes, Yao Ming and Nash would have been crazy this season.
The Thunder's dominant player, Chris Paul, could even compete for more accolades this season.
It can be said that the current Thunder and Goose City really can't wait to give their best everything to each other.
In this case, the fighting power that this team has shown in the NBA is truly amazing.
Any team, whether it is the Suns or the Rockets, as long as they run to Goose City, almost always has to take off a layer of skin before leaving.
Facing both the Rockets and the Suns, the Thunder can be so crazy in the face of the Seattle SuperSonics.
Naturally, Thunder will not keep his hands.
Let's not talk about the personal vendetta between the two teams. Yees scored a 58-point game in the All-Star rookie game last season, led by Paul.
Let's just say that the thunder and hypersonic speed themselves are all pimples.
Thunder and Goose City are now you and me.
But no one can deny that the first target of the Goose City consortium is the Seattle SuperSonics.
If the Goose City consortium really completes the acquisition of hypersound.
The team now called the Oklahoma City Thunder is not the New Orleans Hornets, but the Seattle SuperSonics.
Goose City and Wasp are each other's first love.
But the Seattle SuperSonics is a hurdle that the first love can't get around no matter what.
So, this game is definitely a game for Goose City and the Thunder to prove something anyway.
Goose City need to prove in this game that what they really love is the Thunder.
The Thunder need to prove in this game that they are more worthy of love than the SuperSonics.
So when the game started, when Yes came out of the tunnel with the Seattle SuperSonics, the atmosphere was like crazy.
"These guys here aren't really crazy, are they?!"
David Lee, who was beside Yes, listened to the roars and curses coming from around him, and his legs trembled a little.
At this decibel level of Goose City fans, it really makes people wonder if these guys will really kill from the stands.
"I heard that the tickets for this game, the outermost tickets, there are 5,000 tickets outside, but there are very few fans in Goose City who are willing to sell!"
After David Lee finished speaking in amazement, Ye Si and the others around him were also quite surprised.
David Lee's news has always been the most well-informed about hypersound.
Since he said so, then this is the truth.
Goose City fans buy tickets to the outermost part of the Thunder game, which cost less than $30 each.
$30 for $5,000 is not sold.
What else can this be said except to describe it as true love?
$5,000 is also a lot of money in the United States!
It can only be said that it is not for nothing that Goose City fans are considered the craziest fans in the entire NBA.
Especially in comparison to the millions of fans who voted for Durant, the Goose City fans are exceptionally tall.
Goose City fans and Thunder players want to prove something in this game.
It's just that for the current owner of the Thunder, Clay Bennett, he is now looking at the supersonic No. 9 on the court with a look of regret.
Originally, this team belonged to him.
Originally, this player also belonged to him!
But because of him, this team doesn't belong to him anymore, and this player doesn't belong to him anymore.
It's a mouthful, but it's true.
Without Yes, hypersonic has now been gotten to Goose City by him.
Get the supersonic speed of Goose City, will it have Yes like it does now?
Nature is impossible.
It's a shame!
Although the Thunder and Chris Paul are also good.
But what would it be like if yes and hypersonics were moved to Goose City?
Even in a small place like Goose City, the value of the Seattle superSonics would be unimaginably insane.
Sitting in the front row, Clay Bennett looked at the celebrities from all walks of life from all over the United States around him, and he was really envious, jealous and hateful.
It's really just a little bit away!
It's because it's just a little bit close, so he's now the one who stops Yes from continuing the road of continuous lore.
Now all over the United States, the whole world is looking forward to this game.
Looking forward to this game, the Thunder can be the backdrop for Yes's streak of lore.
It's a big game to start being ambitious, that's what many media pundits say.
Because Yes is the nemesis of the Thunder's leading player Chris Paul.
But the strength of the Thunder is far above the supersonic speed.
So it's a good chance of a lore in this game.
There is even a high probability that there will be a lore.
He does not comment on the claims of these so-called media experts.
But judging from what he's seen in Goose City lately, the current Thunder has an incredible fighting spirit.
Even if Chris Paul does perform badly every time he encounters Yes, even without Chris Paul, the fighting spirit of the current Thunder players is enough to crush other supersonic players.
He's not a professional at basketball, but he's willing to listen to the head coach.
"Even if Chris loses to Yes in this game, it will contain a lot of Yes's energy, and we will let Goose City see the miracle that belongs to us in this game, not the miracle that belongs to Yes!"
He believed Byron Scott's words.
This game Thunder will disappoint the celebrities who have spent so much money to come here to see the excitement!
Even if Chris Paul is really far from Yes, the gap is definitely not that big.
The gap between the SuperSonics and the rest of the Thunder is much bigger than the gap between Yes and Paul!
In this game against the Thunder, the Seattle SuperSonics will start with Milicic, Millsap, Durant, Yees and Rondo.
The starting lineup on the Thunder's side is center Chandler, power forward David West, small forward Peja Stojakovis, scoring guard Rasol Butler, and playmaking guard Chris Paul.
This game is because of David West, and the Seattle SuperSonics are on Millsap.
Paul and David West's blocking and pick-and-roll are very powerful, and David Lee's footsteps can't keep up.
The Seattle SuperSonics changed their starting lineup for this game.
But the Thunder couldn't hold back their pace at all in the frantic shouts of the Goose City fans, and this game must be good for the supersonics.
"These two teams played too directly!"
"Knowing that Millsap's defense is good, Paul and David West are still frantically staring at Millsap playing!"
"Knowing that Paul's defense is very good, as soon as Rondo gets the ball, he will take the initiative to go to Paul and seek physical contact with Paul!"
"The performance of the two teams in this game is not like a match between strong teams with very high tactical literacy, but more like a fierce high school competition!"
Watching this game, even the commentary of the two TNT on the sidelines was incredible.
"However, this game is really fierce!"
Barkley looked at the celebrity fans who had been standing there dancing on the sidelines, and he could only say that some games really didn't require a lot of tactical literacy.
X**D is perhaps the most exciting way to play.
It's good that both teams have been biting like this.
And regardless of the format of the game, isn't that how many expert media predict before the game?
The two teams just keep biting?
"There's not really going to be a lore in this game, is it?"
Jordan, who has been following Yes recently, is really frightened to watch this X**D game.
"Ran away! Tyson Chandler blocks Yes! ”
"Chris Paul Faces Durant's Defensive Mid-Range Jumper Shot!"
"Excellent tempo, Chris Paul helped the Oklahoma City Thunder equalize with 15 seconds left in the game, 101-101!"
"Old Nelson signals yes if it needs to pause, yes signals not to pause!"
After Rondo dribbled across half court, Yesdou came out to catch the ball with five seconds left in the final game.
"Not good!"
"Now the whole world knows what Yes wants to do, Yes is Peja next to him, Chris Paul has also given up on defenders and is pinching Yes!"
Seeing that Peja and Paul were about to close the ball Yes on TV, Jordan, who was standing in front of the TV, had jumped up excitedly.
The storm of lore is finally stopping!
To be reasonable, seeing this game, Jordan is really going to be stimulated to cry.
As the greatest player in NBA history, am I easy?!
It's not easy, okay!
I really didn't expect that one day I would hope that other players would be bad.
You know, only other players were looking forward to him being bad!
Like a lot of people say, defending a game against him doesn't let him go over 30 points to be considered a success.
And now?
He's looking forward to Yes, as long as there is no lore, it will be a success.
Defending him without more than 30 points was successful.
Defending Yes is considered a success without a lore?
Is this a level of anticipation?
He seems to be first-class.
But it doesn't matter, as long as Yes's lore stops in this game, everything is easy to say!
It's just that at this time, Chris Paul, who was about to form an encirclement with Peja, slammed and fell to the ground!
Looking at the picture on TV, Jordan was dumbfounded.
And the same is true of Paul, who is falling.
How is this possible?!
Obviously I elbowed first?!
Looking at Paul on the TV looking at Yes, who had already jumped up, with a look of disbelief, Bruce Bowen snorted with disdain.
The style of this elbow is absolutely amazing!
Brush it up!
Bruce Bowen heard the sound of his own TV as if it had exploded.
"Incredible!"
"This is Yes' fourth consecutive kill!"
Qiao Da, who was already ready to celebrate, sat down on the sofa behind him before he could light a cigar.
MDCP3, elbow Nyima!
Why bother!
Angry, unwilling and uncomfortable.
Look at those crazy colors on TV.
Jordan's ears were already full of the roars of his friend Barkley......
