At 8:20, the main race began.

Although Zhou Quan didn't play seriously, he couldn't help but have high strength, played 20 minutes, and also got 10 points, 2 rebounds, 10 assists, 5 steals and 1 block.

With three minutes left in the end, the two teams played to a 110-all draw.

Zhou Quan played again, stealing Jordan and Anfernee Hardaway once in a row, and helped the West defeat the Eastern All-Stars with his strong stealing ability.

In the end, David Robinson in the West got 22 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and won this year's AMVP.

Early the next morning, on the 12th, Zhou Quan and Zeng Li rushed to the airport and flew directly to Los Angeles.

Zhou Jun also rushed to the airport from school, and at about two o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them picked up Zhou Jianguo, Lin Yufen, and Zhou Ye at the airport.

Life has been good in the past few years, and Zhou Jianguo and Lin Yufen look younger than a few years ago.

Zhou Ye is 15 years old, and he looks beautiful, almost as tall as Zeng Li, but he is shorter in sneakers.

"Big brother, when will you and Sister Zeng Lixi get married?" Zhou Ye shouted when he met.

Zhou Quan glanced at Zeng Li, who had a slightly red face, and said with a smile: "I will return to China to get married after the boxing champion defense fight." However, I am also planning to hold a wedding ceremony in the United States, and I have a lot of friends to invite. ”

"Great!"

Zhou Ye cheered.

"Then I'll prepare when I go back with your dad."

Lin Yufen said happily, and Zhou Jianguo also nodded happily.

"Okay."

Zhou Quan nodded with a smile, touched Zhou Ye's head and asked, "Xiao Yezi, are you studying in the first year of high school?" ”

"Well, the high school attached to the National Normal University." Zhou Ye nodded again and again.

"Brother knows, how are the results now?" Zhou Quan asked.

"Okay, I can basically stay in the top three of the whole grade." Zhou Ye said proudly.

Lin Yufen nodded Zhou Ye's little head and said with a smile: "This girl, what are you proud of in front of your eldest brother?" Your eldest brother is number one in the city. ”

Zhou Ye's little face suddenly collapsed, and he looked at Zhou Quan with the eyes of an idol.

"Then study hard, come to the United States to study after high school, and I will help you choose the best private university." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

"Is private better than a public university?" Zhou Ye asked suspiciously.

"Generally speaking, private universities in the United States are better. However, there are also many good schools in public universities, such as UCLA, where the eldest brother and second brother studied, and private universities are more expensive. Zhou Quan explained.

"Oh." Zhou Ye nodded.

The family left the airport in media photos, and after lunch, Zhou Jun went back to school, while Zhou Quan and others flew to Seattle.

At Seattle Airport, the housekeeper Merlin Wellington came to pick up the plane with someone, and the family came to the villa.

"Wow, yacht, big brother, I want to play!"

Before he got out of the car, Zhou Ye shouted excitedly.

"Millions, enough to buy dozens of houses in Changsha, your eldest brother is really a loser." Lin Yufen glanced at the yacht and couldn't help but count the roads in distress.

Zeng Li quietly stuck out her tongue, she knew the millions in Lin Yufen's mouth, but she was afraid that the currency was not quite right.

After the All-Star, Rodman and Schramf returned, leaving only the veteran McMillan to return early next month, but with the return of the two main players, the supersonic lineup is basically complete.

Next, the SuperSonics won three in a row after the All-Star, with a 40-9 record, ranking first in the West and second in the league, still one win behind the Bulls, who are also three in a row.

February 18th, Chinese New Year's Eve.

At two o'clock in the morning that day, Lin Yufen got up and cooked the New Year's dinner herself.

In Zhou Quan's hometown, they all eat New Year's dinner in the morning, start eating before dawn, and eat while dawning.

Zhou Quan got up at five o'clock, his mother and father had almost finished the New Year's dinner, Zeng Li, Zhou Ye, and Zhou Jun all got up earlier than him, and he was the last to get up.

"Are you used to eating New Year's dinner so early?" He yawned and asked Zeng Li.

"Habitually, we eat in the morning over there." Zeng Tanuki said.

After the New Year's dinner, Zhou Quan's family rushed to the airport with their luggage and flew to Vancouver on a private jet.

This private jet belongs to Bill Gates, who is going to play the Flying Bears away tonight, and he specially borrowed it in order to have New Year's dinner with his family at home, and the team flew to Vancouver yesterday afternoon.

After fighting the grizzly bears tonight, you can reunite for the New Year, and tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are many Chinese in Vancouver, and the Spring Festival atmosphere is strong, and the New Year is celebrated in Vancouver.

That night, the SuperSonics defeated the Grizzlies for their 41st victory.

In order to celebrate the New Year, Zhou Quan broke out with all his might, scoring 38 points in the third quarter, blasting the grizzly bear into slag, and clocking in the third quarter.

He did not attend the post-race press conference, took a leave of absence, and at eleven o'clock, the family returned to the hotel and began to observe the New Year.

Zhou Quan opened a presidential suite, and he had prepared a lot of snacks and fruits during the day, and went to Chinatown to buy some ready-made dumplings and some small items for the New Year, but he decorated the living room with a little New Year's atmosphere.

The next morning, Zhou Quan's family rushed to Chinatown again.

However, he prepared in advance, put on a hat and sunglasses, and put a scarf around him, although he was a little taller than ordinary people, but there were a lot of foreigners in Chinatown, so no one recognized him.

Chinatown is very lively, and the most lively thing is the lion dance.

"Brother, why don't you have a dragon lantern? I also didn't see dragon lanterns in Los Angeles' Chinatown, which was more lively than lion dances. Zhou Jun said.

"The lion dance is highly technical." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

The family played in Chinatown for a long time, and it was considered to be fun, and I felt that the atmosphere was more lively than my hometown, and it was even more lively than Changsha.

In the afternoon, Zhou Quan flew to Atlanta with the team, and in the evening there were back-to-back games as the family returned to Seattle.

Until February 23, the SuperSonics, whose lineup has basically recovered, have won six consecutive games since the All-Star break, with 43 wins and 9 losses, which is still second in the league.

The Bulls lost back-to-back to the Heat on the road last night, 45-9, and with two more games, it is still a win difference with the SuperSonics.

Until the end of February, the SuperSonics had won nine in a row, 46-9.

The Bulls, on the other hand, are 47-9, and with one more game, the margin of victory is only 0.5 more than that of the SuperSonics.

On March 1, the league announced the MVP rankings and the best of the month for February.

The SuperSonics only lost one game in the whole of February, and Zhou Quan's personal data in February was also the best in the league, averaging 38.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 12.5 assists, 6.2 steals and 2.1 blocks per game because he won the second monthly best of the season. It was also the sixth NBA career Monthly Awards.

In terms of the MVP rankings, although Jordan's personal data is far behind, his results are a little supersonic, so he still remains at the top of the ranking list for the second consecutive month.

Zhou Quan flew to Boston with the team on the 28th, and on the morning of the 1st, Zeng Li sent Zhou Jianguo, Lin Yufen, and Zhou Ye to Los Angeles.

On the 3rd, the New York Times reported a news story about Jordan with a front-page headline, accompanied by a photo.

It turned out that Jordan's yacht had arrived home and stopped at the private dock of his seaside villa in New York.

Jordan named his yacht the Champion, which is 3 meters longer and 37 meters long than Zhou Quan's Iron Fist, which is more luxurious.

He invited a large group of friends and a few media reporters to his yacht party, which was very lively and made a big splash.

"The NBA's extravagance started with Iron Fist and Jordan." Washington post.

"Let's guess who is the third supergiant in the NBA to buy a luxury yacht?" New york times.

"Starting with Iron Fist, luxury yachts have become the standard for sports superstars, and Jordan has followed behind Iron Fist's ass." The Seattle Post.

"Haha......"

Zhou Quan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the Seattle Post's report.

Up until the 8th, the SuperSonics had won five in a row, and after the All-Star break, they had won 14 in a row, 51-9.

The Bulls didn't lose during this time, but both teams were the same in terms of regular season games, also 51-9, both 60 games, one win and one loss between the two teams, so the record was tied.

But on the night of the 10th, when the SuperSonics defeated the Spurs and continued their winning streak, the Bulls lost on the road, losing to the Knicks.

The Bulls' record became 51-10, while the SuperSonics were 52-9, and the SuperSonics officially surpassed the Bulls, a win difference, and rushed to the top of the league.

But then the SuperSonics lost to Mosaic, and the Bulls overtook again.

Of course, Zhou Quan didn't want to lose, he also survived the time when Schramf and Rodman were injured, and now that they are back, of course they want to rush to the top.

Jordan didn't want to lose, he couldn't suppress Zhou Quan in terms of personal data, so he wanted to suppress Zhou Quan in terms of performance.

But the Bulls' No. 19 lost unexpectedly at home, a back-to-back game to the menacing Kings, and thus lost the first spot in the league.

Then No. 24 lost to the Raptors on the road, but fortunately, the SuperSonics also lost to the Spurs, so the difference in victory did not widen.

Entering April, the regular season has entered the final stage.

On the 1st, the league announced the MVP rankings, and Zhou Quan surpassed Jordan and climbed to the first place.

The best aspect of the month, given to David Robinson.

On the 5th, the veteran McMillan returned, and the main rotation lineup of the SuperSonics was all restored.

On April 9, the SuperSonics played a mosaic on the road, and in the 7th minute of the third quarter, as Zhou Quan hit a three-pointer, the whole stadium was welcomed, and the visiting fans were cheering and applauding him.

At this time, on the hanging screen, his career scoring record was played, 10,001 points.

This is his fifth season, 398th regular season game, 24 years and 33 days.

So he broke this record, the youngest Mr. 10,000 in the NBA league.

In the end, Zhou Quan scored 55 points in this game, breaking his career single-game scoring record, and hit 50+ for the seventh time this season.

Relying on his super performance, the SuperSonics won the Big Three, and the two teams tied 2-2 in the regular season.

The Bulls then lost to the Hornets at home on the 8th, the Cavaliers on the road on the 14th, and the Pacers at home in the final regular season game on the 20th.

In the end, the Bulls finished the regular season with a 67-15 record, first in the East and second in the league.

The SuperSonics lost to the Trail Blazers on the 15th, but it didn't hurt the league's No. 1 record.

On the 21st, it was the last regular season game of the SuperSonics, playing the Nuggets away.

Previously, the SuperSonics had a 69-12 record, and only this last win was missing to get their 70th win of the season.

Although it's just one game, 69 and 70 are two grades, and in the entire history of the league, no team has ever won 70 wins, and if the SuperSonics achieve this record this time, it will make history.

So the whole team worked together to win, Zhou Quan scored 35 points and 20 assists, and led the team to defeat the Nuggets away from home and won the 70th victory.

This is the first time in Zhou's career that he has won his 70th win in the regular season, and it is also the first team in the league to win 70.

It was actually a tough season, with a lot of serious injuries and no one expected to have a 70-win record.

In addition, 20 assists in a single game also broke the single-game assist record of his career.

The SuperSonics are 70-12 this season, first in the West and first in the league.

After the game, Zhou Quan was interviewed at the scene.

"Iron Fist, congratulations, the SuperSonics are the first team in the history of the league to win 70 games, do you think the current SuperSonics are the strongest team in history?" The journalist asked.

Zhou Quan did not hide the excitement on his face, and said with a smile: "We can't compare history, but now we are the strongest, and we will try to defend our title." ”

"Actually, you've had your biggest injury this season, and you carried the team forward during that time, what was it that kept you going and got a 70-win record?" The reporter asked again.

"I want to be the best, that's what drives me." Zhou Quan said without modesty.

"The first person on active duty?"

"Yes."

Back in the locker room, the management had prepared a champagne, everyone celebrated well, and invited the media to take pictures.

After the celebration, the team has counted the players' personal data for the season and handed them to everyone.

"Iron Fist, it's yours."

"Thank you!"

Zhou Quan came out of the shower and got his personal data statistics.

Played in 82 games, started 82 games, averaged 42.5 minutes per game, averaged 37.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 12.9 assists, 6.1 steals, 2.1 blocks, 2.5 turnovers and 2.7 fouls per game.

He shot 53.2 percent from the field, 42.4 percent from three-point range, 93.5 percent from the free throw line, 61.2 percent from the true field and 5 with turnovers and assists.

This season, he ranked first in the team in playing time, first in the team in shots, first in scoring, fifth in rebounds, first in steals, first in blocks, first in assists, first in defensive efficiency, first in personal plus/minus, and second in shooting percentage.

3,058/10,366 points in the regular season and career this season; 394/1940 rebounds, 1025/5201 assists, 500/1602 steals, 172/446 blocks.

"Iron Fist, congratulations, averaging 37.3 points per game, your stats surpass Jordan's career-high 37.1 points per game in a regular season season."

"Although it is not a historical record in the league, but now that you are competing with him for the first person in active service, this transcendence is also very meaningful."

"God, 37.3 points per game is the highest since the seventies."

"Jordan averaged 37.1 points per game in his third season, forcing the league to introduce an anti-isolation singles rule, do you think, will the league introduce rules to limit Iron Fist?"

"The Bulls' record that season was that everyone else pulled to one wing, and let Jordan play in the low post on the other wing, which couldn't contain him at all, and now Iron Fist doesn't play like that."

"It's not good to say, it's possible to introduce any rules, and the alliance has this power."

George Carr and Whithitter both congratulated each other, and the rest of his teammates were also talking.

Zhou Quan looked at his stats and scored 9 more points than last season, which is too much of an improvement, first, he wanted to complete the task and increased his shots from the beginning of the season, and second, because of the injuries of Schramf and Rodman, he had to continue to keep more shots.

However, the number of assists is 1.9 fewer than last season's average, and it is normal for the scoring to increase and the number of assists to decrease, but fortunately, 12.9 assists are enough for him to win the assist king.

Since Schramf and Rodman returned, he has taken a lot less shots in March and April, scoring less and more assists, or he might not have had 12.9 assists.

This season, he not only grabbed the scoring title for the first time, but also defended the assist and steal king for the fourth consecutive year.

There are only two tasks left at the beginning of the season, one is to defend the title, and the other is to be the MVP.

In addition, after a season, his breakthroughs have been improved to level 95, and his ability to break through with the ball has improved a lot.

In terms of shooting skills, layups, pull-up jumpers, throws, step-back jumpers, turn-back step-back jumpers, boards, turn-around jumpers, all seven of which have been upgraded to level 96.

The remaining shots, 91 on hooks, 92 on step-back jumpers, 90 on turn-back jumpers, 91 on drift shots, 93 on horseback archery, and 90 on dunks, can only be improved next season.

These technical improvements are also the reason why there has been a big explosion this season and can survive in the case of a serious inconsistency in the lineup.
