Vol 3 Chapter 724: The tragic west

At the start of the new season, Seattle's first five games have a record of 3 wins and 2 losses. This record is just eighth in the West.
"Treasure the current Seattle Supersonics ranking, maybe this matter is the last time the Seattle Supersonics ranked in the top eight in the West!"
After the Seattle SuperSonics lost to the Boston Celtics at home, Barkley's statement during the commentary has become the focus of almost all media reports.
Facing three weak teams in five games, the game was extremely difficult, and facing two powerful teams was almost a defeat.
Moreover, judging from the contents of the five games, the Seattle Supersonics players really went all out in these five games.
Needless to say, the five games that started in the new season, each game scored a minimum of 30 points, and each game's hit rate is more than 80%.
This is a terrible efficiency!
Although, in addition to playing the Warriors in the first game, yes has made more than 20 shots, the other four games have only about 10 shots. It can be said that such shot numbers are somewhat pitiful for yes, but who makes yes indulge in the memories of playing with Durant last season?
If he can't get out of his memories with Durant, his playing style will always be like this.
Even if yes did not attack with all his strength in the game, his scoring and scoring efficiency still topped the entire league. After five games, yes is now the No. 1 scoring player in the league and the No. 1 hit rate player. Ranked fifth in the league in rebounds and third in assists!
It can be said that the performance of yes in the first five games of this season is already the strongest of his memories of playing with Durant.
And what about others?
Milicic's offensive performance this season is also quite good.
Those who have watched the Seattle Supersonics in five games can clearly feel that Milicic is more defensive and rebounding than last season, and this season has made significant progress on the offensive end.
Milicic's defense from last season has become an offensive and defensive balance this season, and the average data has become 18 + 8. Although the rebound has decreased, the score has increased, and his rebound has not decreased. Defensively, but he changed from a backcourt rebound to a card in protecting the rebound.
The Seattle SuperSonics have two excellent guards who rebound. The inside card position can better protect the rebound.
So don't look at Milicic's rebounding data, but the number of rebounds for the entire team has increased, and it still ranks first in the league.
The Seattle SuperSonics' number one rebound this season is not only related to Milicic and Millsap but also has a lot to do.
Millsap's performance this season has also been better than last season.
Millsap's progress this season is not reflected on the offensive end, but on confrontation.
Milicic's progress is that his offense is more outstanding, and all offensive methods have become more outstanding.
Millsap, however, simply became more capable of confrontation.
Millsap's mid-range field goal percentage is down, but the offensive efficiency under the basket is higher than Milicic.
While defending, his card ability is even better than Milicic.
It can be said that Millsap's performance this season is also beyond last season.
In addition to the four games that led to Rondo in the first five games of this season, the Seattle Supersonics' other four players started. This season's performance has improved compared to the previous season.
Especially Rondo, after playing the first triple-double in the playoffs in NBA history last season, Rondo finished five games this season. The current average is 112 points, 11 rebounds and 122 assists.
Whether Rondo can average a triple-double this season is not known, but so far, Rondo is the only player in the league that still maintains a triple-double per game!
When your team starts with five people, there is a scoring king, a point guard with an average of three doubles per game, and two insiders who are both excellent in offense and defense, these four people seem to have gone all out, but in the end you have Even the weakest team in the league cannot easily win.
Then you need to think about the performance of other players.
"Ibaka's performance in the first five games of this season can exhaust all the efforts of the Seattle Supersonics' four starters this season."
Ibaka ’s first five games per game is now the number one in the league, higher than the Pistons ’player Iverson ’s. He has averaged 26 shots per game so far. 6 hits, 23 field goal percentages, not even 25!
"Rondo's hit rate was shot with Durant's shots. After seeing Ibaka, I think coconut flours all over the world will miss Durant last season and Rondo last season."
Ibaka used his performance to drag down the Seattle Supersonic starter.
James Harden also dragged the Seattle Supersonics' bench lineup after playing the sixth man at the Seattle Supersonics.
James Harden has a lot of problems on the offensive end. After all, it is a rookie. The style is not simple enough, the ball is sticky, the shot selection is not good, the efficiency is not high, etc., and the defense is also quite bad. However, compared to Ibaka, James Harden is still not so pitted. After all, he can make four free throws per game in the bench. This is really surprising.
In short, for the Seattle SuperSonics, many people have seen that the other players of this team have really worked hard, but because of Ibaka and Harden, the team ’s current hard power That's it.
Compared with last season, it is really very serious.
"Unless yes can perform more miraculously than last season, otherwise the Seattle SuperSonics can only hit the playoffs by giving up Ibaka and Harden!"
"Even if yes, I don't believe he can continue to fill Ibaka. Yes has a strong scoring ability, but this season he is almost faced with a double-team, and the opponent playing Ibaka is almost equivalent to Hitting the air, one is hitting the air, and the other is the packing clip, which is very unfair to yes. "
"Desperately, we all know the character of yes. It is impossible for him to give up his teammates. From his high school era, this is his basketball style as always. Even if he sinks with his teammates, he will not be like some people. Choose the boat wisely. "
"Maybe, this season we can see yes again during the shipwreck accident during Garfield's Five Tigers."
Public opinion around the world is very pessimistic about the status of Seattle's supersonic.
This is not only the cause of the supersonic, but also the changes in the entire western season this season is also an important reason.
In the west of this season, the changes are very, very huge.
The world thinks the Lakers and Grizzlies are the strongest in the West this season.
But after finishing five games, the Spurs and Mavericks ranked first in the West!
The Lakers and Grizzlies were both blocked by the Western Conference's Belly team last season.
The previous seasons of the Western Conference team Clippers, Timberwolves and Trail Blazers performed very well in the Western Conference this season. In addition, the Mavericks have returned to the strong team after acquiring Avrallo. In the Western Conference this season, Maybe there is no oligarch team that last season, but the strength of each team is quite close.
If we say that the Western Conference last season, from very early on, only 8 or 9 teams left in the playoffs.
But this season, teams competing for the playoffs are likely to be as high as 12 or even 13!
There are indeed 12 teams in the Western Conference with a win rate of more than 50.
Of course, the season has just begun, and it's still early, but things like the sudden rise of the Spurs and Mavericks are definitely not an accident. It's not that the Spurs and Mavericks will return to normal levels over time.
Because the Spurs and Mavericks are really changing this season.
The Spurs used to be a defensive team, and Popovich was also a team that focused entirely on defense.
But this season, the Spurs changed their previous defensive style and actually played offense and running.
And the Spurs 'offense and running are not the same as other offenses. The Spurs' running and focusing are very focused on the speed of passing and transferring the ball, and they don't look jerky at all.
The Spurs are focusing on offense this season, and the defense hasn't fallen, which is terrifying!
As for the Mavericks ...
The biggest change for the Mavericks this season is to get uc defender Avraluo. This is considered to be first-class in the draft. All-stars with no shortcomings but no top quality are his top players. Use this short The short five games proved to the world that he is an All-Star player!
And all-star players who have reached the All-Star level in all aspects!
Aflaro is not the same as Durant's all-star players.
Durant's offense may be a superstar, but the defense ... then it's hard to say.
And Avraro?
Offense is an All-Star, defense is an All-Star, physical talent is an All-Star, and organizational ability is also an All-Star!
This is a talent that didn't waste a little of his own, and developed his potential to the extreme!
"Youth is constantly running and chasing your limits!"
Aphrodite and Westbrook, the pair of mentors and apprentices who always wear strange costumes, said this oral in the face of interviews has now become a hot topic in the entire NBA.
"If your talent is not as good as yours, and your efforts are not as good as yes, you are not qualified to chase him!"
In the past, Afflalo likes to hang his competitor of yes in his mouth, and everyone else disdains.
How could his potential become a competitor of yes!
but now……
Such a player, you say his highest future is an All-Star, there seems to be no problem.
But is such a player really just an All-Star player?
Because there are no shortcomings, in the face of any player can play their own All-Star strength, such players are sometimes more dangerous than many so-called superstars in the league!
It can be said that this year's top six rookies, the most prominent is the Bulls Ross, the Warriors Beasley, the Mavericks Affalo.
This season in the West, because of the sudden rise of the Mavericks and Spurs, coupled with the Lakers, Grizzlies, Nuggets, Rockets, and Suns, these five teams are as strong as ever. This season, it was only as good as theirs. It is impossible for the supersonics to compete with these teams.
The eight places in the Western Conference playoffs are now seven fewer.
Now Seattle Supersonics wants to enter the playoffs and can only compete with the Timberwolves, Trail Blazers, Clippers, Thunder.
This year's Timberwolves are very strong. El Jefferson, Yi Jianlian, Ilya Sova and Guy have continued to grow this season, plus the team has added a very powerful Mayo, this team looks Woke up to the edge of takeoff.
So even the Lakers were accidentally bitten by the Timberwolves this season.
And the Blazers?
The Trailblazers' leading player Adeldridge has scored 20 in all five games this season, and he has been able to score 20+ per game steadily. McConley, Webster and Gortat are all growing.
Last season, the Trail Blazers were a center, power forward, small forward, and a young team with excellent point guards. This season, the Trail Blazers selected Eric Gordon at the 14th pick. This rookie is in front. The performance of the five games is simply amazing!
Although it is not as good as the first echelon of Ross, Beasley and Avraro, it is definitely not worse than the second echelon of Westbrook, Mayo and Love.
The rookie played three 20+ games in the first five games, and the efficiency is quite amazing.
It is precisely because the Timberwolves and Trail Blazers have no shortcomings, making these two teams more likely to be the eighth team in the West to enter the playoffs.
The Clippers led by Nick Young and Westbrook are also very strong, but they are unstable. When they are strong, they can blow up the sky, but sometimes they seem to be able to kill themselves.
The Thunder led by Chris Paul and David West lost Chandler's Thunder competitiveness, but the strength of this team is still not to be underestimated.
It can be said that throughout the western region, only the jazz and the king are still fishy.
The season goals of the other 13 teams are all playoffs.
And these goals are that the playoff teams really have the ability to playoffs.
This is crazy!
Because the supersonic situation is difficult now ~ EbookFREE.me ~ All the media in the United States are analyzing the situation in the western part of the season. The season began to analyze the situation in the entire western part like the season sprint.
For the tension in the US media, the supersonic speed is very relaxed.
And Yers, has been looking for a team to complete the 100-point task.
He played five games, three did not let him be humiliated by death, and two were the teams that he couldn't get 100 points even if he opened 96.
November 7, 2008, Seattle Key Arena.
"Yes, I didn't expect Feng Shui to turn so fast!"
Looking at the excited Guy.
Mayo looking at the hatred next to Guy.
Yez's eyes light up ...
