February 12, 2008, Key Arena, Seattle.

As one of the league's most devilish home stadiums, although it is no longer as hot as during Yes's consecutive lore-outs, the atmosphere at the scene is still shocking.

The Key Arena is one of the smallest arenas in the entire NBA, and it is precisely because of this minimum that the Key Arena can create such an atmosphere.

For the same 20,000 people, putting these 20,000 people in a 20,000-person stadium and putting them in a 16,000-person stadium are two completely different effects.

Looking at these crazy supersonic fans around them, the Jazz players in front of the Jazz bench felt like they were back in Salt Lake City.

Salt Lake City fans share the same passion.

The Seattle SuperSonics and the Utah Jazz are both rivals in the Northwest Division, and Jazz players often come to Seattle to play.

The two teams have met at least four times a season, with the two teams meeting five times last season.

For the players of both teams, they are very familiar with each other.

Once upon a time, Seattle SuperSonics' Key Arena was one of the worst in the entire NBA.

The vicissitudes of the sea, the vicissitudes of the sea, and the Seattle SuperSonics actually have a day comparable to Salt Lake City in this regard.

This makes the Utah Jazz players very emotional now.

The world has changed so much.

Now not only is the Key Arena unrecognizable, but even the Seattle SuperSonics' record and strength are no longer comparable to them.

Obviously, they only killed the superSonics five times last season.

The team they didn't like at the beginning has become a team they can't catch up with.

And this game of hypersonic is important.

It was the week leading up to the game, and the team's head coach, Jerry Sloan, kept emphasizing the words to them.

On a team like the Utah Jazz, when Jerry Sloan asks them to do something, what they want them to do, they don't have the ability to say no.

In the Utah Jazz, there are no stars, there are no superstars, there is only one real superstar, and that is Jerry Sloan.

In this respect, the Jazz and Spurs are very similar.

The Spurs and Jazz are two of the few teams in the league where a star does not have star privileges.

And the Jazz may be more serious than the Spurs.

The Spurs are still the privilege of the players themselves, and they Utah Jazz don't even have the power to give up the privilege.

“Yes！ Yes！ Yes！ ”

Listening to the frantic cheers of the supersonic fans at the scene, Deron Williams had nothing but envy.

The Jazz have had a terrible season as a team, but he's been outstanding individually.

Averaging 19 points and 10.5 assists per game, he has become the league's next playmaker who can be recognized as a 20+10 defender.

This season he is third in the assists charts, behind Paul and Yes.

With his performance this season, if it weren't for the fact that there are too many superstars in the West this season, he could also be a hot candidate for an All-Star.

He's definitely a star player now.

But it's because of the Utah Jazz.

He gets very little attention and only gets mentioned every time he plays Chris Paul.

Because Chris Paul, the league's No. 1 point guard in the future, can't beat him almost every time.

But in addition to beating Paul with thunder, his low exposure is terrifying.

Not to mention that compared to other stars, even compared to those role players such as Barria and Millsap of the Seattle SuperSonics, they are far inferior!

Speaking of which, no one may believe that in this year's All-Star voting, as a player who averaged close to 20+10 per game this season, he received far less votes than Seattle SuperSonics backup point guard Barria!

Not to mention that it can't compare to Barria, even the Mavericks veteran Jerry Starkerhouse can't compare.

What's going on?

It doesn't matter if he loses the attention of the league, if he can get the treatment and privileges of a star in the team, he can be a prestige in the team, he can be a king, he can accept it.

But the disgusting thing is that in the Utah Jazz, he didn't get any chance to dominate the team.

He even had to sneak up on him when he went to a nightclub.

He lost not only his luster but also his character at Sir Utah.

So is there any other reason for him to stay with the Utah Jazz?

Of course there is, and if Sir Utah can bring him honor, of course he is willing to stay.

But now the Utah Jazz can't even bring him honor.

A team that is 10th in the West, there is nothing to bring him.

With his strength, he can get one or two things he can want wherever he goes.

Only in Utah Jazz, he can't get anything!

Looking at the supersonic players coming out of the Seattle supersonic player tunnel one by one, Deron Williams' eyes were full of envy.

They're a bunch of trash, but with the right people, with the right team, they can get whatever they want.

How ironic is that?

Hehe......

Deron Williams is now looking sadly and disdainfully at the superSonics players who came out to the cheers of the supersonic fans.

And Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan, next to Deron Williams, is also watching these supersonic players.

It's just clear that Jerry Sloan's eyes and Deron Williams' eyes are completely different.

The Seattle SuperSonics' first appearance, Kevin Durant, was last year's star show, and this year's scoring champion.

A player known as the most watery scorer, the most watery eye, and the most watery player in NBA history.

He is also the only player in NBA history to shoot more than 30 shots and shoot less than 40% from the field.

He averaged 32 shots per game, scored 35.1 points per game and shot 38.5 percent from the field.

This means that Yes is developing him with the prospects of the whole team.

Every time I see this data, many people will be very disdainful.

A week ago, he was looking at this man with colored eyes, just like those people all over the world.

But after studying all the Seattle SuperSonics games this season, Jerry Sloan knows that Durant's rapid progress in the past half a year is absolutely staggering.

He also watched the skinny funny photo of Durant and Yi Jianlian compared during the draft.

At that time, Durant was really bad, and his physical strength really doubted that he would be knocked apart in the game.

Coupled with the fact that he is not so athletic at his height and weight, it can be said that Durant is a veritable parallel import.

But now?

He doesn't know Durant's specific height and weight right now.

But he can visually see that the current Durant is definitely at least two points taller and at least 10 kilograms heavier than when he was drafted!

What's more, after this player is taller and stronger, he hasn't slowed down, and the bounce hasn't gotten lower, which is amazing!

This means that Durant is not fueled by Yes and the supersonics, but is moving forward step by step.

Yes used a lot of shots, a lot of ball-handling opportunities, scientific weight gain, and scientific training to turn Durant from a player with mediocre talent into a very special player.

When Durant has such a confrontation and his height can still run and jump like he did when he was thin before, and he can still control the ball.

Durant can really be as high as he is, and not as fast as him!

And what's even more terrifying is his shooting consistency, he has studied the current Durant, and almost any defense against any team can guarantee a shooting rate of at least about 40%.

It's a pretty scary thing.

You know, in the playoffs, a 40% shooting percentage is actually not low, especially with so many shots.

Many NBA stars who can now shoot 45% in the regular season may not have Durant in the playoffs!

After Durant went to the Seattle SuperSonics, Yes really sacrificed everything he could.

Most of the right to shoot was given to Durant.

The ball was also given to Durant.

After Durant scored 65 points in a single game against the Suns, the world said that any starter-level small forward who plays next to Yes can score 65 points against the Suns.

This is a deception!

Those people simply didn't notice the breakthrough Durant used against Stoudemire.

That kind of drastic change of direction...... Do these guys really think that as the starting center of a championship team, Stoudemire's defense is that poor?

In the current league, there are many small forwards who can break through to Stoudemire one-on-one, but they definitely can't do any starting small forward, not to mention, the success rate of breaking through like Durant is so high.

Prejudice has made the world underestimate how great Yes is for his teammates!

A week ago, he had been like these guys and full of prejudice against the rest of the Seattle SuperSonics.

Now he knows that even if Durant was really rubbish before, he has slowly begun to metamorphose like a bug under the cultivation of Yes for most of the season.

Durant has been developed more in most of his season than many players have in two or three seasons.

The current Durant should have been what he would have looked like in three seasons!

No, if it weren't for Yes, Durant wouldn't have had three seasons in the NBA.

There isn't any team that develops him like Yes.

Without Yes's training, Durant's athletic talent would not have been discovered.

"Durant looks a little heavier than he did when he hit the Suns!"

Looking at the cold-faced Supersonic 35, Jerry Sloan's face was constantly changing.

At such a critical moment, Yes still did not stop cultivating Durant.

You must know that player weight gain will indeed increase the player's confrontation, but in a short period of time, players need to adapt, and their strength will decrease!

"Sure enough, he is the luckiest and most enviable player in the history of basketball in the world!"

Jerry Sloan nodded secretly.

And Durant, the luckiest and most enviable player in history, is the culprit of the Jazz team this season from a team that can kill Yes five times to a team that has been killed by Yes!

Yes, because of Durant, he completely unsealed his most powerful pass in history.

Before the whole world was criticizing Durant, before he discovered Durant's characteristics of gaining weight and not declining athleticism and shooting feel, Yes had already discovered it, so he used the list to sign Durant!

Why did he discover this trait in Durant?

Because his former disciple Karl Malone is also such a player!

Karl Malone was the No. 13 pick in 1985, and in 1985, a year that was not considered a big year for the draft, Malone was not optimistic about his talent.

In fact, his talent doesn't look that great, he's not that tall, he's not that fast, and his only strength is that he's 250 pounds in the draft, but that's a fat body, 11% body fat percentage, which means he needs to work on his body fat and build up his real strength.

When Malone really trains his body fat to 5%, what kind of terrible condition will his hand feel?

At that time, if the Jazz didn't pick Malone away with the 13th pick, it was really hard to say when Malone would fall.

But the world is always full of miracles.

Malone has been strength training throughout his career.

But unlike other NBA players, Malone's strength training has never affected his feel!

In the end, Malone became a bug with both power and feel.

Can you imagine a player who is comparable to O'Neal in terms of power and Yao Ming in terms of shooting touch?

That man is Carl Malone.

Durant and Karl Malone aren't as talented on the surface.

Their talent needs to be brought out in the right way.

Now Durant's talent is slowly being stimulated by Yes!

It took him and Jazz three years to inspire Malone's talent.

Now, Yes is almost ready to be activated in just over half a year.

When Yes fully unleashed Durant's talent, it was when the Seattle SuperSonics shocked the world.

Win and develop your teammates, and you can pursue the present and the future!

“Yes！”

“Yes！”

“Yes！”

That Seattle SuperSonics No. 9 is so special!

In the entire history of the NBA, Jerry Sloan has never seen such a special person.

He did something in the NBA that he never thought about.

Your future will be beyond anyone's imagination.

Perhaps, the sky is your limit.

But now, the victory in this game, is mine!

Yes slowly walked out of the tunnel amid the welcome of his Seattle SuperSonics teammates and the cheers of the fans in the stadium.

"Yes is very relaxed now!"

"Yes doesn't look like this game is going to be a game that could change the whole Western Conference this season!"

"The game started immediately, the two sides were ready to jump the ball, and Milicic jumped the ball to beat Oku easily!"

After Milicic successfully jumped the ball, the Seattle SuperSonics launched a fast break, and the Jazz retreated, and Oku didn't even think about jumping when he jumped the ball in order to retreat.

"The Jazz's defense is excellent, and the supersonic have no chance of fast break!"

Barkley had some regrets.

On the court, Yees and the supersonic players looked at Durant and the old fish Fisher in front of Durant and were stunned.

"Am I right? The Jazz opened against Durant?! ”
