The bench rotation on both sides, the Cavaliers recovered a little point, but it was irrelevant.

125：101。

The SuperSonics snapped a 10-game winning streak with a 24-point lead.

The key to the Cavaliers' away loss was that the 16-game winning streak was interrupted, which made the team's expressions a little ugly up and down.

General Manager Paxson sat in the audience with a panel of statistics, his face gloomy.

Frankly speaking, losing is not what he cares about the most now, what makes him angry is some data on this statistical record.

LeBron James, played 25 minutes, scored 18 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals, first in the team, second in rebounds, and second in assists.

This is still a result that is extremely unsuitable for the supersonic new style of running and bombing, and for a rookie player who is starting for the team for the first time, you can't ask for more, and if you let him play the whole game, I'm afraid it's not impossible to get a triple-double.

Although the current owner of the Cavaliers, Gordon Gunde, is no longer involved in the team's usual management due to physical reasons, LeBron played such a statistic in his first start...... Coupled with the fact that those who blame themselves for scolding LeBron in Ohio and then quickly turned into a large number of die-hard fans of LeBron's brains.

Paxson knew that it would be difficult for him to hide him any longer.

Looking at the young man who smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with the supersonic players one by one, and even took the initiative to hug Lin Dong and talk for a long time, showing all kinds of ice release and generous blessings, as if he had been refreshed and changed his past, a faint fear and jealousy rose in Paxson's heart for the first time.

He now understands more and more what kind of person this kid is, and seeing him act as if he wants to be friends with Lin Dong is possible, is it possible for such an ambitious person?

In every way, the Asian was destined to be a stumbling block for him, and if he was given the slightest chance, he would do whatever it took to kick one out of the way.

The current kindness and humility are just his acting skills! How could the media and that Asian figure see through him, this kid used the poor performance of the previous dozen regular season games, and even played himself, the general manager of the team who knows him best!

Working with such a guy with a super high IQ, holding his own handle in his hand, and having infinite ambition in his heart, I am afraid it will be the worst experience of my life......

But it's clear that Paxson's inner slander doesn't affect the speed at which reporters press the shutter of their cameras.

- The Son of Ohio and the Supersonic Prince release their suspicions!

- Shawshank's Redemption Basketball Version: LeBron James!

- The Oriental Magician and the former Mr. 90 million hugged calmly!

The picture of the two hugging was crowned with various headlines, accompanied by the news of the supersonic's 10-game winning streak, and became the darling of the front page of major sports and basketball newspapers in the United States the next day.

From 1-6 at the beginning of the game, to now tying the best 10-game winning streak in team history, and defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are now ranked No. 1 in the league, this has finally made Seattle fans completely crazy.

10 consecutive wins, this is still the best record set by Payton and Kemp in the 96 season, and with the current momentum of SuperSonic, it feels like every next game will be a historical moment to witness the birth of a new record.

As for Sakuragi Hanamichi...... Frankly speaking, there are compliments, but when it comes to popularity, it is still a bit far behind.

People's interest is still focused on the effect of Lin Dong and Payton leading the team, while the interest of NBA league teams is focused on the supersonic set of run-and-gun tactics.

The Warriors in the 90s ran and bombed, and the offensive end was also extremely amazing for the league at that time, with high scoring efficiency, fast offensive and defensive rounds, and once played quite a bright performance in the regular season, but when the teams began to study them, the interior tactics used for their weak defense and the 'cooling tactics' used for their rhythm control became the deadliest nemesis of the run-and-bomb system, so that Tang Nelson only executed the run-and-bomb in the Warriors for two seasons before being ruthlessly swept away by the management.

But this supersonic is a little different......

Thanks to Lin Dong, who has now shown the potential of the strongest scorer in history, the superSonics can not only play the cooperation of five people, but also re-drive the rhythm through Lin Dong's personal ability when they are in trouble, which makes their running and bombing definitely stronger than the Warriors back then.

On the defensive end, the defense with the concept of rotation and pinch-and-shoot was added, although it still suffered under the basket, but the overall defensive efficiency was quite high, and against the Cavaliers with three super scorers, the supersonic defense was already the most successful defense against the Cavaliers after the start of the season.

Wade and Davis took a total of 31 shots, but only 12 of them, and their 38.7% shooting rate was far lower than their previous average of 52.6% per game.

In addition to defense, another major drawback of running and shooting is physical strength.

But that's where this hypersonic team is even more terrifying.

In their current list, except for Pedrager and Vin Baker, almost everyone else can adapt and integrate into this style of play, and have Lin Dong and Payton at the same time, two different types of organizational leaders, so that their rotation lineup is quite deep, which can maximize the endurance of supersonic when using run-and-gun tactics, according to the specific algorithm of the current team analysts in the league, as long as the rotation is reasonable, if there is no major accident, this supersonic team can even be led by only Lin Dong or Payton under the rhythm, Maintain the rhythm of the whole game for 48 minutes!

…… It makes up for almost all the weaknesses of the running bomb, but magnifies the attack.

Frankly, the head coaches of the teams in the league are really having a bit of a headache right now.

On the SuperSonics' side, Bob had already made a decision that night, adding to the trade the Grizzlies wanted, and the answer he decided to give was Vladimir.

After all, with SuperSonic's current lineup and style of play, even Pedrager, the main center who performed well last season, has to sit on the bench most of the time, just reserved for use in some key battles as the team's tactical change needs, and the slow-moving Vladimir is obviously a bit redundant.

With Vin Baker and Vladimir, trade for Grizzlies' Battier.

It's a pity......

Although a game allowed the SuperSonics to reap Sakuragi's explosion and save the main force that the team intends to cultivate, it also gave all the head coaches in the league a headache, and the consequence was that the trade between the SuperSonics and the Grizzlies was directly lit up with a red light.

The whole league is staring at this.

This Nima, you must not let them trade!

The current supersonic team is already a headache enough, if they are reinforced again......

Frankly speaking, before this game, no one thought that Wen Baker for Battier was a reinforcement for the SuperSonics, although the latter was the best rookie last year, but after all, Wen Baker was still an All-Star, and he was once a bull who could replace Sean Kemp alone, plus the SuperSonics team was too young, with fewer veterans and many young people, the teams would only feel that it was weakened, and young people need playing time to cultivate, so many young people in your team, who can you really cultivate? Not only will you not be able to produce results, but in the end, you will only become a person who helps other teams cultivate.

But now it seems......

Wen Baker's clumsy 500-pound body is obviously not particularly suitable for the supersonic system, so that Wen Baker has missed two or three supersonic games in a row, compared to the younger and more energetic Battier is undoubtedly more suitable for the supersonics, and the supersonics' special rotation system and time allocation also give them enough room for all newcomers to practice.

What they have shown by winning the Cavaliers so far has already caused a lot of headaches for the teams, and if they are traded with the Grizzlies again, the depth of this supersonic run-and-gun rotation will become stronger, so it will not be up to the sky?

So, absolutely, absolutely no longer let this supersonic team be reinforced!

This may be the voice of the teams in the league right now.

It is said that many team owners and even some officials at the top of the league have talked to the Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies did not hesitate and did not directly refuse the supersonic trade, but they obviously realized the importance of Battier to strengthen the supersonic lineup, so they sat on the ground and started the price, on the basis of Vin Baker and Vladimir, plus a Sakuragi Hanamichi or Desmond, correspondingly, the Grizzlies can not have that second-round pick next year, as a make-up for the deal.

Obviously he regretted the things that had been negotiated, and Bob was also very angry, but he was also a little helpless.

Desmond and Hanamichi Sakuragi are both indispensable components of this running team at the moment, and they are no less important to the team than a rookie from last year, not to mention it is not known if Battier will be able to adapt to this set of tactics after he arrives.

After repeated negotiations to no avail, the deal could only be cancelled, and the team's desire to strengthen was frustrated.

But...... At the moment, the mind of supersonic is no longer on reinforcement.

Three days later, the SuperSonics played away against the Philadelphia 76ers, a powerhouse in the East, and the 76ers fought against the SuperSonics, although the answer Iverson fought until the last second, scoring 44 points, but he was completely powerless to stop the pace of the SuperSonics.

At 112:96, the SuperSonics won 11 in a row.

Immediately following the away game against the Trail Blazers, although the Portland Trail Blazers have a mediocre record this season, they have Rashed Wallace, who roared Tianzun, and Pippen, who was once the second leader of the Bulls, and the strength of the interior is obvious to all.

Many coaches in the league are watching this game closely, counting on the Trail Blazers to use the traditional interior twin towers to try the supersonic run.

The result was a big disappointment.

The supersonic outside line blossomed, and it rained 3-point rain, and the whole 3-point shooting was 16 of 31, more than 50% shooting, and the final score was 115:97, and the Trail Blazers were killed.

What's worse is that the Japanese rookie, who was frequently teased for wearing the No. 10 jersey in the first half of the season, not only did a good job of completing the needs of the run-and-gun tactics in this game, but also grabbed a full 14 rebounds above the heads of Roaring Tianzun and Pippen, including 9 frontcourt boards!

'This guy is the best at rebounding among rookies'!

The little name began to be shouted out, and in Lin Dong's 35 points and 12 assists, he rarely stole a little attention.

And the supersonic running and bombing is not afraid of the inside twin towers, which has also become a new problem that plagues the coaches of various teams in the league.

Then the SuperSonics ushered in two home games, first 121-102 against the Los Angeles Clippers, followed by a 117-92 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, winning a record 14 consecutive wins in team history, pulling the SuperSonics' Western ranking from eighth to fourth, second only to the Spurs, Lakers and Mavericks.

Commentators, the media, and even the league began to hype it up.

For a time, supersonic speed was unparalleled and imposing!
