Vol 4 Chapter 1184: Oden’s troubles and go against the current!

On December 11, 2013, the Sonics, who defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in an away game, continued their road trip, and will challenge another playoff team in the West on the away game, with the Memphis Ashes led by the super giant Oden. Bear.
It's another master-disciple war!
It is also a focus battle!
Now that the Seattle SuperSonics are raging in the Five Minutes, in many people's minds, Oden's Grizzlies are definitely one of the most powerful teams to defeat the Five Minutes.
Now the five Seattle SuperSonics players are strong offensive and defensive players who can play at least from the first position to the third position.
Antetokounmpo, Leonard, Durant, Yers, James Harden.
Five players is simply a nightmare for outside players in the league.
Especially after the most ruthless guy on this street in the league, Westbrook was misfired in front of Yers. Now many people are talking about what kind of players and what kind of team can really help Seattle. The five super fives of supersonic speed are killed.
The Grizzlies led by Oden, who is now the league's first center candidate, are undoubtedly a big favorite.
The Grizzlies are not the three recognized brave teams this season.
But after the Lakers, Cavaliers and Warriors, the fourth brave is definitely the Grizzlies.
If it weren't for the Grizzlies now falling into structural aging, the team's bravery degree could continue to rise.
After all, as the de facto No. 1 center in the league now, Oden will still give many people great expectations.
The most honorable centers in the league are of course O'Neal and Yao Ming.
But O'Neal is now basically playing some games in the Nets symbolically. Most of his time is now in the studio of TNT.
After the New Jersey Nets became the Brooklyn Nets in 2012, O'Neal imitated Kobe and changed his jersey number to the number 33 college jersey number, and pushed the Brooklyn Nets to add to the tone of the black and white jersey. A jersey with a green tone.
This is already the third jersey number that O'Neal has changed in the Nets.
In the past few seasons, O'Neal basically changed the number in two seasons.
From 34 at the beginning, it became 36 later, and then it became 33 now.
Obviously, O'Neill's intentions are not difficult to guess.
This big center is preparing to retire three jerseys in the Nets when he is retiring!
This makes many people think that the reason O'Neal did this is to continue to suppress Kobe.
Kobe will definitely retire the No. 8 and No. 24 jerseys in the Lakers.
He went one step further, retiring three jerseys in the Nets.
This is the guess of many people.
It's just that O'Neill smiled non-committal for these people's guesses.
What pressure Kobe, you guys think too short answer!
Brother Shark is just to get the seven-color uniform!
Therefore, as the highest-ranking center in the league's history, O'Neal now puts all his mind on the seven-color uniform and his TV career.
After O'Neal, Yao Ming is the second highest in league history.
Yao Ming is not as leisurely as O'Neal now, and he doesn't care much about the game like a wild crane.
But because the age is about to 34 years old, plus 2MVP1FMVP and the best defensive player, first defense and other honors, Yao Ming doesn’t care much about the honor and statistics of the regular season, and more wants to continue. The length of his career, strive to make a difference in the playoffs.
Therefore, Yao Ming's current statistics and performance in the regular season naturally cannot support his position as the number one center forward.
Therefore, now the position of the league's first center has naturally transitioned from Yao Ming's hands to Oden's hands.
Compared with other players in the league such as Howard, Milicic, Bynum and even the younger generation of Cousins, Oden is now a well-deserved natural successor to the first center regardless of strength, fame or reputation.
If Oden did not take over as the No. 1 center last season, then this season, Oden, who has averaged 28 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 2.5 blocks per game so far in the league, is undoubtedly the league's well-deserved first center candidate. .
Memphis Federal Express Arena. When Oden came to hug Ye Si before the game, he looked at the big man in front of him, and Ye Si nodded.
This season is Oden's seventh season in the league, and he is about to celebrate his 26th birthday.
For Oden, the seven-year career is undoubtedly a success.
Six seasons have been played since the rookie entered the NBA, and all six seasons have entered the playoffs.
Even if the helpers next to him are getting old one by one, he still relies on his own strength to take the Grizzlies tenaciously to the top eight in the Western Conference and enter the playoffs.
For any player, in a competitive environment like the West, in the case of infinitely close to a single core, bringing the team to the playoffs is a success.
It's just obvious that as the emperor, and the emperor who has been called by the entire United States for ten years.
Although Oden's current achievements in the NBA are successful, they have not reached the standard that can satisfy him and everyone.
So after taking the initiative to hug and greet Yesh, as the host of the home game, Oden accepted an interview with Kenny Smith on the spot.
And Kenny Smith's first question is about the MVP.
Players like Oden have always been compared to players like Jordan and Yees.
Yesh had already won the regular season MVP in his second season in the NBA.
Jordan won the regular season MVP in his fourth season.
This season is already Oden's seventh season.
Originally, as Gasol, McGrady, Carter, Battier and others got older, this honor seemed to be getting more and more distant from Oden.
However, this season, the opportunity came suddenly.
"Of course I hope that this game can beat the Seattle SuperSonics and beat the teachers. Yes, I am, like everyone else, very interested in this season's MVP."
Oden did not keep secrets about this topic.
Now his career is in a very awkward position.
Some feel that I can't go up and down.
So much so that there are already many voices teasing him: "Oden and James, who is the worst choice in basketball history?"
There is no doubt that it was James before, but after James won the championship, the pressure has all been on Oden's side.
However, from the expression on Oden's current face, Kenny Smith felt that Oden's current mentality seemed to be quite good.
"Although the MVP is very attractive, the master is the strongest player in the NBA. Whether he was three years ago or he is now, he is the strongest player in NBA history, and the Seattle SuperSonics are also the strongest in NBA history. Team, beating such a team is undoubtedly the most difficult problem of basketball in the world."
"So Greg, are you confident that this game, or this season, will be the answer to this problem?"
In the gaze that Kenny Smith expected, Oden smiled and nodded.
"I will work hard to prevent the Seattle SuperSonics from playing their 22nd game winning streak here."
In the face of Kenny Smith's various provocative questions, Oden has always answered neither humble nor humble.
This made Kenny Smith a little surprised and admired.
In fact, don't look at Oden's five big and three rough, in fact, his heart is as mature as his looks.
Oden is a fairly low-key and mature player.
"There are so many chosen children in this world. Perhaps players like Yes are unique, but players with talents like James Oden, although rare, are definitely not rare, but they can achieve achievements like Oden in the NBA. The so-called talented children are very few, most of them are in college, and even fell in high school. It can only be said that Oden's success in the NBA is definitely not accidental. He is indeed a more mature and excellent center than Howard."
Even Kenny Smith, who was mainly to provoke Oden and Yers this time, sighed sincerely after the visit with Oden.
Oden's current mentality is indeed very, very good.
But this is on the surface, and deep in his heart, there is no doubt that he is still a little worried.
This season is already his seventh season, and this season should also be his time for results.
He doesn't think his career can catch up to the height of his teacher.
But he never felt that his pursuit of Jordan's height was a delusion, and Jordan's height was also very high, but whether he was James or he is now, he has the ambition to chase the past, whether he can chase it or not.
And Jordan, it was in his seventh season that he began to produce results.
In Jordan's seventh season, Jordan won the championship, regular season MVP, and finals MVP.
And he, in his seventh season, not to mention getting so many honors from Jordan.
Is it time to win the first regular season MVP of his career?
This is Oden's trouble now.
This is actually more than Oden's troubles.
This is the trouble of all the chosen children.
Not only Oden, James was or is still in such trouble.
Because in any case, whether it is James or Oden, they have felt that they have a feeling of incompatibility with the current basketball world.
Both James and Oden felt that their style of play was not the trend of the world.
And they didn't have enough strength to reverse the tide brought up by Yesh.
In the end, they could only watch Nash, Nowitzki, Curry and other miracles from side by side, and they could only envy and watch them.
Because they can't play this kind of basketball, and can't change this kind of basketball, they can only follow the trend in the end.
In this world, no one wants to be the chosen child of the crowd.
They were the kind of players who led the trend in the era when they became the chosen children!
However, time changes too fast.
Some people, like James, have never been able to get out of the glory of being the chosen son of the past. They have always felt that they are still the'king of the world', even his Twitter is also'KING'. I always felt that this world should be covered and shrouded by his wings.
Oden is different from James. His career is not as smooth as James. He has had a huge crisis in his career. If it weren't for the master Yers to help him resolve the crisis, he would not even have the opportunity to follow the trend in the NBA.
But no matter what, Oden felt that he should do something in this general trend guided by his master, so as not to be directly submerged by the water and then at a loss.
In the middle of the court, looking at Antetokounmpo in front of him, looking at the small players on the opposite side and surrounding circles, Oden never dreamed of becoming the chosen son ten years ago, ten years later. NBA will be such a situation.
In this game, he didn't want to say anything like this.
In this game, he just wants to show his full strength.
It doesn't matter whether you beat the Supersonics, whether it's five or eight in the end, or MVP, everything else is good.
Even if his roar in this game is just to send the end of the big center era in the trend led by the teacher.
In this game, he wants to make his own voice!
In the voice of the fans in the Federal Express Arena, Oden did not give Antetokounmpo any chance.
Antetokounmpo's bounce and speed are very good, most of the league's center forwards on the jump ball, it is really not necessarily able to beat him.
Therefore, even in the face of Oden, the Supersonics still have some expectations.
After all, Oden is only 2 cm taller than Antetokounmpo.
The imagination is beautiful, but the reality is a bit skinny.
One emperor and one emperor’s ability on the jump ball is really time-tested, especially as the first emperor Oden ~EbookFREE.me~ Memphis Grizzlies' first attack, Oden quickly after completing the jump ball Going to the frontcourt, Antetokounmpo's defense speed is also quite fast.
The Grizzlies are on the fast break, but the Seattle SuperSonics have not lost place.
In fact, it is not easy for the Seattle SuperSonics to lose position on defense.
The speed of the team's defensive rotation is now definitely the highest level in NBA history.
However, for the Grizzlies, whether the Seattle SuperSonics' defense is out of position or not has no effect.
After McGrady dribbled the ball quickly past halftime, he handed the ball to Gasol at the free throw line.
After receiving the pass from McGrady, Gasol hardly stopped and threw the basketball in his hand to the basket.
After Oden took off Antetokounmpo, he jumped high and directly smashed the basketball he received into the basket!
2 to 0!
After the Grizzlies launched the offense after halftime, all the Grizzlies' passes are the kind of high play.
In the end, Gasol and Oden ended the attack by passing inside.
Throughout the process, the Seattle SuperSonics defense did not even have a chance to react.
So after Oden completed the dunk, the entire Federal Express Arena was choked for a short while.
"Charles, have you seen the Sonics so weak on the defensive end this season?"
Bucklinane's shook his head.
After a brief suffocation, even greater cheers rang out from the entire Federal Express Arena.
Listening to the huge cheers in his ear, Barkley opened his eyes wide.
Could it be that Oden and the Grizzlies can really go against the current in this game? !
