In fact, Richard had predicted that in the entire West Lafayette group, Big Ben's name would be the first to name the rules of the League......

Unexpectedly, this thing actually fell on me!

It's not a good thing......

……

The league rescheduled a replay for the previously canceled game.

This time, Ma Long played, but the two sides did not do anything, except for the blushing faces and thick necks of the two sides, the scene was quite harmonious......

The rematch naturally ended in the victory of the Trail Blazers, and when the Jazz was lame, it would be a fool's dream to win against the now extremely strong Trail Blazers!

This season's Trailblazers have definitely exceeded everyone's expectations.

Although the Trail Blazers played well last season, no one expected the Trail Blazers to be so strong this season......

In everyone's opinion, this season's Trail Blazers will probably improve slightly compared to last season, but even if there is an improvement, it will be difficult to enter the top half of the Western Conference playoffs, after all, there are many strong teams in the West!

But a season is about to end, and the Trail Blazers are firmly at the top of the Western Conference record list, three wins ahead of the Western SuperSonics!

Who would have thought of this record?! No one could have predicted it......

Even Richard himself didn't expect that their Trail Blazers would be able to sit in the first place in the West!

Not long after the start of the game, Richard's goal was actually to break into the top half of the West, and it was best to break into the third place in the West!

Good guy, now I can't stop killing the first place in the west!

Or Richard and the rest of the crowd underestimated the ability of the Trail Blazers' rookie players, or how quickly they realized their potential.

It's a well-known fact that the Trail Blazers have a lot of quality newcomers.

But whether a high-quality newcomer can grow into a high-quality player is a matter of two words, and there are not too many high-quality newcomers who fall halfway......

However, the newcomers of the pioneers are exceptionally strong, not only are they all growing, but they are also growing rapidly.

By the time everyone came back to their senses, they were already sitting in the first position in the west, sitting steadily, even if the supersonic speed was desperately catching up behind, it would be useless, and there was no hope of catching up at all.

……

It is worth mentioning that when there is still more than half a month before the end of the season, the rocket suddenly began to exert its strength!

Because the Rockets have too many old men on the team, they are basically in a state of health this season, and they have been hanging in the eighth place in the West......

Their original plan was to play the Jazz in the first round of the playoffs, and if they can play, it means that they still have hope of breaking out of the West, and if they can't beat the Jazz, there is no point in working hard in the regular season.

But now the situation is different, the Rockets never want to play against the Trail Blazers, and in the face of this stunned young team, their old men may even have a late holiday.

In this case, the Rockets directly at the end of the season made rapid efforts to catch up with the record of the seventh Timberwolves in the West.

Don't look at the Rockets' regular season record is not very good, but their eyes are still quite scary......

Under normal circumstances, they actually met the Jazz in the first round this season, and if it weren't for the poor form of the aerial glider Drexler, they would definitely be able to overturn the Jazz in the first place in the West......

Drexler averaged 30.9 percent from the field and 19.2 percent from three-point range in the first round of the five-game playoffs.

The sad Barkley averaged less than six shots per game, less than half of Drexler's.

Even in such a pitted state, the Rockets have entered a tiebreaker with the Jazz!

Even if Drexler's condition is slightly better, not to mention too much, and he reaches a 40% shooting rate, it will definitely not be the Rockets who lose, but the Jazz......

In fact, Richard is also worried about rockets, and he knows the horrors of this health rocket.

If it weren't for the Rockets suddenly starting to exert force and surpassing the Timberwolves, then Richard might really have deliberately released water and let the SuperSonics grab the first place in the West.

……

In the blink of an eye, the time has entered the middle of April!

Half of the teams in the league have already played their entire regular season schedule, and the remaining half will be over in the last day or two.

In this case, the ranking of each team in their respective divisions has basically been determined.

The schedule between the Rockets and the Timberwolves in the West has been completed, and the Timberwolves are ranked eighth in the West, and they will meet the Western Dominance Trail Blazers in the first round, and their luck can be said to be quite bad......

According to the rankings, the eight teams in the West that have entered the playoffs are the Trail Blazers, SuperSonics, Lakers, Suns, Spurs, Jazz, Rockets and Timberwolves!

On the eastern side, the Bulls, Pacers, Heat, Philadelphia 76ers, Hornets, Hawks, Knicks and Nets are on the other side.

……

Home of the Trail Blazers, Rose Garden Arena.

Tonight is the Trail Blazers' regular season finale, and the opponent is Green Kai from Boston.

The Green Kai have already confirmed their loss of playoff qualification, but they are not bad, and they have 35 wins so far.

The Trail Blazers have now won 64 games, and after defeating Green Kai, it will become a 65-17 regular season record, ranking first in the league!

The West's second-place SuperSonics have wrapped up their regular season schedule with a 62-20 record.

Even if the Trail Blazers lose this game, they will still be the No. 1 in the West, and even the No. 1 position in the league will not change, because the Bulls, who are at the top of the Eastern Conference standings, only have 62 wins this season!

……

The night before the game, Green Kai had already stayed at a local hotel in Portland.

Richard also met Billups that night.

Billups took the initiative to contact Richard, saying that he wanted to meet before the game, and it seemed that something had happened to him.

"Coach, do you think I should stay in Boston?" After Billups saw Richard, he asked straight to the point.

Richard was a little curious, he hadn't heard of any injustice that Billups had suffered in Green Kai......

Of course, if you want to talk about preferential treatment, it is definitely not there.

"I feel like if I continue to play in Boston, the gap between me and the rest of the world will get bigger and bigger, and you can tell that of all the players who have entered West Lafayette right now, I am the worst!"

"Not to mention Iverson, they are already the big leaders and second leaders of the team, even Brad Miller is the absolute tactical core of the team!"

"As for me, I'm a starter at best, and this year's Ron Moser has had more opportunities than I did!"

Billups said with a sad face.

Richard was stunned, he ignored this matter, people have a comparison mentality, Billups saw his Silafayette brothers, all of them were in a mixed state, only he was still in a state of immortality, and his heart must be quite uncomfortable.

Even if it were a person like Richard who had a stronger ability to bear it, I am afraid that the situation would not be better than that of Billups.
