Chapter 582: Never Afraid of Being Swept!

The playoffs are about to start, and public opinion in the United States is now 'sorry for me' and 'the worst round in history'.

Whether it is on the Internet or in the media, there is a distressed and pessimistic supersonic voice.

However, such sounds are only on the outside of the Seattle supersonics.

Inside the team, the superSonics players are very peaceful.

The majority of the SuperSonics are made up of young players.

But most young people don't have nothing to experience.

For most of the current supersonic players, such a decline is nothing.

In last season's playoffs, they were looked down on even more fiercely.

They entered the playoffs last season as eighth in the West, facing the Mavericks, who were first in the West.

And this year, anyway, they are third in the West, facing the Nuggets who are sixth in the West.

Although this season's Nuggets are considered to be better than last season's Mavericks.

But this season's supersonic speed is also higher than last season's supersonic speed.

The strength of the supersonic is not as good as that of the Nuggets, this really has to be admitted.

However, the gap between the two sides is not as big as that of the SuperSonics and Mavericks last season.

If the SuperSonics could beat the Mavericks in the playoffs last season, why can't they beat the Nuggets in the playoffs this season?

What's more, it's not like the SuperSonics haven't beaten the Nuggets this season.

The last game between the two teams has no reference value, and in the three meetings before this season, the SuperSonics have a record of 2 to 1!

Two of those three games for the SuperSonics were tough, stunner-style wins.

The loss gave the SuperSonics 168 points, which can be described as a twenty-point defeat.

However, no matter what, in the end, the supersonic score still prevailed.

In this case, the SuperSonics players never thought that the difference between the strength of their team and the strength of the Nuggets reached a point where 90% of experts believed that the Nuggets could win.

Of course, the reason why these experts have such a judgment is mainly because the starting small forward of the SuperSonics is Kevin Durant.

Anthony has proven in the regular season that his advantage against Durant is truly huge.

The entire hypersonic speed is basically impossible to solve the point of Anthony, which is why the supersonic speed will be so underestimated.

After desperately coming out, the whole world has seen Anthony's ferocious offensive ability, as long as you can't stop him, you will be attacked by Anthony crazy.

At this point, even a superpowerhouse like the Suns is hardly immune.

Anthony's offensive skills are so rich, and Anthony's physical condition is just too good.

As for Durant's weakness in the regular season against Anthony, if it really comes to the playoffs, Durant will be spit up by Anthony.

And Anthony can also change the way to make Durant vomit in a different way every game.

As for the strength comparison between Anthony and Durant, if it weren't for the 3-1 comparison between the SuperSonics regular season and the Nuggets, even most experts would want to put the prediction of this set of scores on 4-1 or 4-2.

"The reason why we think the SuperSonics can win three games is not because we believe in the strength of the SuperSonics, we don't believe that Durant can play well under the ravages of Anthony, and we don't believe that the SuperSonics have other players who can step up with the Nuggets as a whole."

"We think the SuperSonics can win three, at most three, and that's because we believe in Yes!"

"Yes has shown me miracle after miracle that his team doesn't fail easily."

Yes's team won't lose easily, so even if the SuperSonics face the Rockets and Suns, they're willing to believe that Yes can lead the team to win three games in a series.

Such statements by these media outlets are indeed quite insulting for other players of the SuperSonics.

It's just that for these media statements, no player in the supersonic team has expressed any objections.

Because that's what it is.

The supersonic players themselves think so.

Their success in the playoffs last year, instead of being swept by the Mavericks, swept the Mavericks, and beat the Spurs instead of being defeated by the Spurs, isn't it because of Yes?

The reason why they believe that although there is a big gap between themselves and the Nuggets, they can still win, is it also because they believe that there is a Yes around them?

Since what these media say is true, what else is there to refute.

Even many of them would like to be willing to admit directly from the outside, we just have Yes, we can defeat any opponent that seems impossible to defeat, just ask you if you are envious or not, jealous or not!

In the current superSonics, perhaps every player except Durant is now full of confidence.

The source of that confidence is, of course, all of Yes, who is thought to be able to bring three wins to a team in a series on his own.

And what about Durant?

His current mood is quite apprehensive.

The playoff game with the Nuggets was the first playoff game in Durant's career.

And in the first playoff game of his career, the opponent he met was actually his most frightened Carmelo Anthony.

This is quite unfortunate indeed.

What's even more unfortunate is that he is still in the bottleneck period of strength.

It can be hard to say it.

His offense hasn't improved since his last game against the Boston Celtics saw him hit a plateau.

In the past month or so, with the help of Yes, he has been improving his defensive and organizational ball control skills.

After a month of hard work, his defensive and passing playmaking have improved.

But no matter how much he improved his defense and passing organization, it didn't help.

With the defense he is improving right now, it is certainly impossible to defend Anthony.

With all the playmaking and passing that he's improving right now, it's sure it won't take long in the playoffs.

Yes will focus on developing him in the regular season, and it doesn't matter if he loses a game, it can allow him to have a lot of ball handling, a lot of organization, a lot of turnovers, a lot of iron, and a lot of undercover in the game.

But when it comes to the playoffs, when it comes to losing one game, it can be a playoff game that loses everything, how can Yes still give him so many opportunities!

In the playoffs, he won't have a 30-game tie, he doesn't have 10 turnovers in a game, and he doesn't have the privilege of possessing one-half of a game.

In the playoffs, it's no longer about his flashy stats.

With an average of 35 points per game and 31.8 shots per game in the regular season, he is the league's leading scorer and is likely to become a third-team or even second-team player in the league.

These statistics, these glories, when it comes to the playoffs, are useless at all.

When it comes to the playoffs, it's all about hard power.

When it comes to the playoffs, the competition is to use the fewest chances to get the highest efficiency.

With his offensive ability at the bottleneck, Durant isn't sure if he'll be able to get the best efficiency in the few opportunities.

After this series with the Nuggets, he's likely to be the same statistic brush as the Lakers' Randolph.

Isn't a data brush like Randolph just a chance to trade in the regular season for flashy stats and accolades?

Durant doesn't want to be the data brush in the world's mouth.

Durant also doesn't want to be the target of verbal criticism after the series.

But in his first trip to the playoffs, he didn't have the confidence to play with his nemesis, Anthony, with excellent statistics.

He's working hard at the moment and wants to train hard for 24 hours a day.

He was now feeling a strong feeling that he wasn't running out of time.

Although in the SuperSonics, he gets more chances in one season than other teams in two or even three seasons.

But because he has encountered a bottleneck, his current strength has grown to the level of the second season at most, and the strength of the third season is blocked by a wall that I don't know whether it is wide or narrow.

It's hard to feel blocked.

At the Seattle SuperSonics' training gym, almost all the SuperSonics players can feel Durant's anxiety and discomfort right now.

In the face of Durant's anxiety and discomfort, some people are full of sympathy, some are full of worry, and some are of course gloating.

"Humph!"

If you don't have that strength, don't jump, now it's okay, you're going to be a war criminal, right?!

Hehe, the second master is in the playoffs and has never been a war criminal!

Rondo looked at the supersonic No. 35 player who was shooting in anxiety with disdain.

The second master just hates this demon-glamorous-goods!

The second master will never be like Yes and others, who will be confused by this demon-glamorous-goods!

In this series, Yes and the world will rediscover how unreliable this guy is!

"KD needs to be sharpened in the playoffs."

Durant's current state is worrying.

Yes and the team's head coach Nelson Sr. certainly saw this.

Regarding Durant's current anxiety and lack of speed, Yees and Nelson Sr. have said everything they should have said, and they have expressed their positions when they should have expressed their positions.

The reason why Durant is so slow to pierce the membrane that prevents him from taking off is entirely his own reason.

Of course, it is not very accurate to say that it is entirely his own reasons.

It would be accurate to say that he put too much pressure on himself, and at the same time, he was not facing enough pressure.

It's awkward to say, but to put it simply, that's what old Nelson just said.

KD needs to be sharpened in the playoffs.

His grinding, his grinding, is still not enough.

He needs to go through a playoff defeat.

Sometimes you can't jump up, you can let the other party press you down, how hard you press, how hard you bounce up.

In the end, as long as the opponent pressed these forces are used properly, they can easily break through the big wall that has been blocking Durant.

Ye Si knew exactly what old Nelson meant by this.

Ye Si also knew very well what the regret and helplessness expressed when old Nelson said this.

Durant's growth needs a huge playoff failure as nourishment.

But the SuperSonics really can't accept such a huge failure of Durant.

Yes can even be sure that as long as Durant has nothing to do with Anthony in the first two games, Nelson Sr. will make a move on Durant.

Ye Si knew very well that Nelson Sr. would not let him accept the fate of being swept in the first round.

Durant is now at a critical time for growth, but the SuperSonics have no room for Durant to grow.

"Yes, don't worry, no matter what, I won't let your career run into a round."

"Your fairy tale is never allowed to leave any stain."

Yes looked at the serious old Nelson beside him.

Ye Si could tell from Nelson Sr.'s face how serious he was.

Yees also believes that Nelson Sr. will do everything he can to help him.

Ye Si can also feel the persistence in Nelson Sr.'s voice, Ye Si believes that whether it is Durant or anyone else, anyone who stands in the way will be ruthlessly and briefly eliminated by Nelson Sr.

Ye Si was very touched by Nelson Sr.'s promise.

But......

"Mr. Nelson, I'm not afraid of being swept away."

I'm not afraid of being swept away?

Old Nelson, who was going to get Ye Si's approval, was a little stunned for a while when he heard Ye Si's words.

I thought I had heard it wrong.

"My goal needs KD's growth, and as long as KD can grow, I can pay all the price I can."

"If KD stops, what's the point of me even if I don't get swept in the first round."

Ye Si looked at Nelson Sr. and said seriously: "This season is not for me, I can't go to the end, I prefer to leave at the beginning in order to be the last in the future, and leave with my teammates. ”

β€œYes……”

Nelson Sr. and Scott Brooks next to him were stunned.

"Y, yes, you, do you know what kind of stress you're going to experience if this loss happens?"

Old Nelson hasn't spoken yet, and Scott Brooks on the side has spoken.

And Wang Han, who has been tracking Ye Si's playoff journey next to him, has been holding the microphone in his hand, and his palms are sweating.

She knows very well what kind of huge sensation Ye Si's words will cause if they are broadcast at home or abroad.

"It's the tragic ...... of the Garfield Five Tigers"

Old Nelson let out a heavy sigh after recovering from his stunned stupor.

The tragedy of the Garfield Five Tigers.

Either everyone climbs up together, or everyone sinks together.

That's the basketball philosophy that Yes has always adhered to.

Yes is really different from others.

Old Nelson has seen many, many people, and these people have said many, many beautiful things.

But these beautiful words, the people who say them always don't believe it themselves.

"Yes, it's their greatest luck in their lives to be teammates with you."

"No, I'm lucky to be teammates with them."

As serious as ever, as sincere as ever.

Such seriousness, such sincerity made the old Nelson and Scott Brooks next to him extremely respectful.

"What's more, KD's growth does not conflict with our promotion."

Well?!

Not conflicting?

Do you mean that KD can advance even if it is undercover, and the supersonic can be promoted?

How is this possible?!

Old Nelson and Brooks glanced at each other and looked at each other.

Yes, that's serious!
