Chapter 717: Man or God?!
On October 28, 2008, after a four-month truce, the NBA's opener game was about to kick off in Seattle.
The whole city of Seattle has been looking forward to this day for quite a long time.
After last season's finals, Seattle waited for the entire team to wear the championship ring in front of the entire city.
The Seattle SuperSonics won the championship in Boston, on Boston's home turf.
Although at the time of the finals, Boston's home stadium, North Shore Garden, had been occupied by Seattle fans.
But those East Seattle fans and coconut fans have nothing to do with them.
Although after the team won the championship, it also held the largest championship parade in NBA history in Seattle.
But how could such a victory parade completely unleash their hunger for glory?
If you want to fully release the glory of the championship in their hearts, you need to wait for them to wear the championship ring!
"No matter how bad our results are this season, no matter how many games we will lose this season, no matter how much humiliation or even humiliation we will get here this season, for us, they are our warriors, and our warriors have brought back for us what we are most looking forward to and proud of!"
"Yes or anyone else, every Seattle SuperSonics is the pride of the whole Seattle!"
"Pride! Proud! Proud! ”
"Pride! Proud! Proud! ”
"Pride! Proud! Proud! ”
Just an hour before the opening game of the NBA between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Golden State Warriors, the entire arena was already full, and the atmosphere of the entire arena surprised the media from all over the world.
"The fans in Seattle are some of the craziest fans in the world, but every time you see the enthusiasm of these fans, it's shocking, their enthusiasm is genuine, and there's not even a professional fan here who looks like an exaggerated emotion."
"Only these heartfelt love for the team can maintain their feelings for the team so hot!"
This NBA opener between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Golden State Warriors.
This is a game that CCTV broadcasts live in the whole process.
The so-called live broadcast of the whole process, that is, from the time when the two teams were training this afternoon, has been broadcast live.
For this game between the SuperSonics and the Warriors, CCTV attaches very, very importance to it.
The whole country is watching!
No, not just the whole country, but the whole NBA, this game is very important, and the whole world is watching!
Because the SuperSonics lost their second-in-command Durant, coupled with the departure of David Lee and Kwame Brown, and the newly added rookie players are all Harden, Ingles and Ibaka, just a little Gasol can be used, it can be said that the strength of the entire Seattle SuperSonics has been greatly weakened compared with last season.
The strength is greatly weakened, and there is a firepower that concentrates the entire NBA, and it would be strange if the superSonics could perform well this year!
Before the game, Seattle SuperSonics fans spoke out about their requirements for the SuperSonics this season.
What they ask for is that they don't ask for it.
It's not just Seattle fans who can't ask for anything.
Wang Han knows very well that even domestic fans have no requirements.
Last season, the Seattle SuperSonics won the championship, and this one has exceeded the task.
Last season's championship and this year's Olympic champion, it can be said that even if Ye Si never wins another championship in his entire career, he is a legend in the Chinese sports world.
It can be said that China's coconut flour and Seattle's coconut flour are now in the same mood.
It should be said that the idea and will of coconut flour all over the world are the same in this regard.
They have little to ask for yes and supersonic this season.
However, the whole world is not transferred around them.
The people who are following the Ye Si game the most now are not coconut powder.
Now the NBA has so much attention and so many people, not because of the die-hard coconut powder.
The group that holds up such a large plate is a neutral group that watches the excitement.
These neutral groups that watch the excitement are the group of people who determine the final direction of public opinion.
When the largest group of people wants to see something, the media and experts, even coconut fans, will cater to them.
The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and the drums were beaten by thousands of people, and these people who pushed and beat were them.
This season, will Yes go from being sought after by 10,000 people to being beaten by 10,000 people or pushed by everyone?
Wang Han really doesn't know.
She only knows now that he is under a lot of pressure in this game, and CCTV is also under a lot of pressure.
If you lose this nationally focused game, and you lose it very badly, then there is really no way to explain it, listen to the above, the biggest leaders and big leaders are watching this game!
Although the biggest leader said that the little comrades should not have pressure, how can there be no pressure!
The Seattle SuperSonics' record in eight preseason games this year is really super worrying!
The Seattle SuperSonics' eight preseason games were all played against last season's East and West teams.
But the final record is quite a mouthful of eight consecutive defeats!
Neither the Eastern nor the Western teams have been able to win a single game.
The Seattle SuperSonics didn't work hard in these eight games.
In these eight games, except for Ye Si, everyone else played, and everyone else worked hard.
But in the end, all eight games were beaten, and each game lost by at least 15 points.
No way, Milicic and Rondo are supersonic veterans who really can't bring new players like Ibaka, Harden, Ingles and Gasol Jr.
Mainly Ibaka and Harden Ingles.
The trio have a minimum of 20 minutes of playing time per game in preseason.
In particular, Ibaka and Harden have at least 30 minutes per game.
Previously, the second and third positions of the Seattle SuperSonics were Yes and Durant, respectively, and these two were the absolute strong points of the Seattle SuperSonics.
Now these two absolute strengths have finally become absolute weaknesses.
Isn't the replacement of Durant and Yaes by Serge Ibaka and Harden an absolute weakness?
The whole team worked so hard with Ibaka and Harden, and the final record was eight consecutive defeats!
"Double the joy is indeed double the happiness, and if Yes insists on developing both Harden and Ibaka at the same time, then the Seattle SuperSonics may have to worry about the playoffs this season!"
"Especially Ibaka, if the Seattle SuperSonics really insist on using Ibaka to replace Durant's position as a starter, Yes may not need to worry about entering the playoffs this season, Yes needs to worry about whether he can maintain an average of 30 points per game this season!"
"Maybe this season will be the only season in Yes' career where we don't average more than 30 points per game!"
"Without Durant, and with Ibaka, who doesn't know anything, as a starter, I can't imagine that the opponent will not know how to defend Yes, and the bag Yes will be over!"
This is the public opinion report that Wang Han heard in the United States during the preseason.
Compared with these media in the United States, as a person close to Yese, Wang Han knows better than others what is going on inside the supersonic speed now.
She is more worried than the American coconut flour media and pundits.
Because she really knows up close that Yes really values Harden and Ibaka!
Even more important than those media experts in the United States imagined!
Now the whole country and the world are spraying Harden and Ibaka.
Harden is the blackest player in the NBA right now, and he always finds an excuse not to train and go to a nightclub, so it's strange not to be sprayed.
There's also Ibaka, who walks off the court with every game and a low basketball IQ like someone who has never played basketball.
These two are simply the cancer duo in the minds of those coconut powder media.
is such a cancer duo, but they are treasures in Ye Si, and they are big treasures!
Wang Han was so excited when he saw Ye Si for the first time.
It's all because of these two people in the team.
"Yes and the Seattle SuperSonics want to get a good spot in the regular season and then wait for Durant to return in the playoffs, then they need to give up Ibaka and Harden, at least one!"
That's Buckley's point.
It is also the opinion of most of the world's coconut flour.
But Wang Han knows that Ye Si will not give up any of them, and even these two, he will manage them more thoroughly!
Listening to the cheers of the supersonic fans at the scene, and listening to the whispers of reporters from all over the world, Wang Han gently closed his eyes.
No matter how humiliating Yes is this season, she and all the coconut fans will face it with optimism!
Very optimistic to face it!
Wang Han felt that she and the coconut fans could share the hardships with Ye Si.
But some people don't necessarily want to.
It's not that he is unwilling, and David Stern is certainly willing to share the hardships with Yes.
David Stern has never hidden his affection for Yes.
But he loves Yes and is willing to share hardships with Yes.
But the NBA really can't afford to suffer!
The NBA is now on the rise.
Last season, the NBA caught up with the NFL in terms of ratings and commercial value, but this is really unstable!
If Yes and the SuperSonics suddenly have a lot of humiliation in the new season, the NBA will definitely fall off a cliff.
David Stern knows all too well what those onlookers, neutral fans want to see.
To put it nicely, these neutral fans like to watch the excitement, like to chase victory, and like to look for a sense of substitution and superiority.
Just like those arrogant eastern coconut fans, Yes is great and they think they like Yes and follow it.
If Yes falls one day, then they will leave Yes and the NBA faster than anyone else!
Professional sports in the United States are so developed, it is easy to find a winning army, and it is easy to find a chosen son.
Especially for an important game like the opener.
David Stern is well aware that if Yes suffers a major defeat in this game, it is likely that the NBA's ratings will collapse from then on.
Those people aren't going to go through the trough with Yes.
They gathered together because of the miracle of Yes.
They will also leave because Yes can't do miracles.
Yes is a man who can do miracles, and David Stern never doubted that.
But the players who can't stand the Seattle SuperSonics are so pitted!
Yes didn't play alone, and everyone else didn't win a game in the preseason.
"As long as Harden and Ibaka play more than 30 minutes at the same time, the SuperSonics don't want to win, even if Yes plays, it's useless!"
"If Harden and Ibaka average more than 30 minutes per game this season, Yes and the SuperSonics can now prepare for next year's draft!"
Here's USA Today's comments after all of the Seattle SuperSonics' preseason plays.
David Stern agrees with this theory of today's United States.
Ibaka and Harden have too many flaws.
Either of these two is more pitted than Durant and Rondo last season.
As the president of the NBA, David Stern knows that there are very, very many teams waiting for Yes and the SuperSonics to brush their presence this year!
"This season may be the only season in Yes' career that can embarrass him!"
"If we can't get revenge on Yes this season, then we may really not have a chance in the future!"
He had heard similar things more than once from the general managers or owners of other NBA teams.
It doesn't matter if the strength is strong or weak, whether it's for simple revenge or for a simple sense of existence.
Now the Seattle SuperSonics and Yes are the public enemies of the entire league, and all teams, not to mention in the regular season, even in the preseason, are fighting with the Seattle SuperSonics!
That's one of the reasons why the Seattle SuperSonics lost all of their preseason games.
Although the other eight teams are fish belly, they are really desperate!
It's all like that in the preseason, let alone the regular season.
"President, we may need to prepare for the worst case scenario that Yes won't be able to lead the team to the playoffs."
"If he continues to develop Rondo and Durant as he did in the previous two seasons, we need to prepare for the worst, president."
Because of Yes's wonderful performance in the past two seasons, no one in the entire league and the entire public opinion dared to say in the media that Yes and the SuperSonics could not make the playoffs.
But for the inside of the alliance, they don't have to think about whether they may be slapped in the face by Yes, and they won't announce it anyway.
In the end, the alliance mobilized the strongest actuarial force of the entire alliance, and the conclusions reached were the same as those predicted by the United States today.
If Harden and Serge Ibaka both average more than 30 minutes per game, then the Seattle SuperSonics will end up with 35 wins, and one of them will average 30 minutes per game, and the record will be 45 wins at most!
Whether it's 35 wins or 45 wins, it's very, very difficult to make the playoffs in the West.
As long as Yes develops Harden or Ibaka, say goodbye to the playoffs!
David Stern really didn't want to believe it.
"Won't you be able to do any of them?"
"President, Rondo doesn't eat the ball, and his passing and defense itself is online, although Durant eats the ball, although his talent is ordinary, but his offense is really good and comprehensive, even if he only had a shooting rate of more than 3 percent at the beginning, but that is also a shooting rate of more than 30 percent, Harden and Ibaka are not so stable in their shooting rate, and they don't have Rondo's passing and defense, they are really useless!"
"President, Yes is a man, not a god!"
Yes is man, not God......
Yes, Yes is a man, not a god......
At least, now, not ......
Maybe he, like the crazy supersonic fans on the spot, has now taken him as a god......
