Chapter 1171 The peak battle of personal honor, incredible after incredible!(1/2)
If there are two teams in the NBA that have the best relationship, there is no doubt that everyone would say it is the SuperSonics and the Warriors.
Nelson, the head coach of the Seattle SuperSonics, is the former head coach of the Warriors. He coached the Warriors for seven years and is one of the most popular coaches in Golden State.
The head coach of the Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr, was born at the University of Washington and is a direct descendant of Seattle. As Nelson is getting older, Kerr has always been the next coach of the SuperSonics by major betting companies.
The No. 1 favorite as coach.
In addition, Beasley, the boss of the Warriors, and Durant, the second son of the SuperSonics, are childhood sweethearts. Curry, the second son of the Warriors, is the apprentice of Jaycee, the boss of the Seattle SuperSonics, and is the big brother of the Warriors.
Yao Ming is the idol of Seattle SuperSonics boss Jaycee and a teammate of the national team.
Also, Klay Thompson, the third player of the Warriors, and James Harden of the SuperSonics have carried guns together and have a close relationship as brothers.
For example, the other big brother of the Warriors, Ray Allen, is the former boss of the Sonics, and he is a very special former boss. Even now, Seattle still remembers the goodness of Ray Allen.
This is not to mention the relationship between seniors like Curry and Leonard, and seniors like Eric Bledsoe and Rondo at the same university.
The Seattle SuperSonics are the hottest team in the league this season, while the Golden State Warriors have been the hottest team in the league for the past three years.
One is the biggest devil this season, and the other is one of the three brave men this season.
With two teams like this colliding together, you can imagine how excited and excited the public opinion outside is, and how crazy the expectations for this game are.
According to TNT and many American TV organizations' pre-heating and surveys of this game, this game may set a new high in regular season ratings this season.
Although the opening game between the Cavaliers and SuperSonics was also crazy, the ratings were also very high.
But it was the Seattle SuperSonics' first game of the season, Leafs' return game.
There were still many spectators who did not come back to that game.
After Jaycee and the Sonics continued to go crazy, these talents caught up with the trends around the world and returned to the team again.
The attention on the Seattle SuperSonics is much greater now than in the first game at the beginning of the season.
The game between the SuperSonics and the Warriors is definitely one of the most important games of the Seattle SuperSonics regular season this season.
However, unlike the outside world's expectations for this game, before the game started, the harmonious relationship between the two sides really did not have the slightest tension when a big war came.
The players from the two teams were arm-in-arm, chatting and laughing, making people think this was just an ordinary regular season game.
There isn't even a plot between the Demon King and the Hero.
So let alone the ordinary viewers in front of the TV, even David Stern, who came to the scene, looked slightly surprised when he saw the players' faces constantly appearing on the big screen.
The players of both teams are really quite relaxed now!
but……
The players from these two teams are really star-studded!
When he saw the players being scanned one by one on the big screen and listened to the on-site DJ's introduction to the players who had been scanned, David Stern was secretly speechless.
"This game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Golden State Warriors will be a contest destined to be recorded in the history of the NBA, because in this game, for the first time in the history of the NBA, six players
The most popular regular season MVPs compete on the same field, Yez, Durant, Rondo, Curry, Beasley, Yao Ming, Kenny. In your memory, there have been six games in one game in NBA history.
Peak regular season MVP?"
"No."
The atmosphere at Oracle Arena was not very violent, but it was still very lively.
After Kenny Smith was asked this question by Barkley, he shook his head without any hesitation.
Six regular season MVPs in one game!
The lineups of both sides are simply incredible!
The 2008 regular season MVPs were Ye Si and Yao Ming.
The regular season MVPs in 2009 were Leafs, Kobe Bryant, and O'Neal.
The regular season MVPs in 2010 were Leafs, Durant, and Rondo.
The 2011 regular season MVP was Yao Ming.
The 2012 regular season MVP was Beasley.
The 2013 regular season MVP was Curry.
In the past six years, the NBA has produced a total of eight regular season MVPs. Except for Kobe and O'Neal, six of them appeared in this game.
It can even be said that this game has all the NBA regular season MVPs in the past six years!
Moreover, Yao Ming, Durant, Rondo, Yee, Beasley, and Curry are more than just six regular season MVPs.
Ye Si is also a three-time FMVP!
Durant is a two-time FMVP!
Yao Ming, Beasley and Rondo are 1st FMVP!
Except for Curry, the other five MVPs are all MVP, MVP, and MVP honorary Grand Slams, and they are all ranked in the top 20 in NBA history!
"Five of the top 20 players in NBA history appear in one game!"
According to the latest ESPN historical rankings, Yes is number one in NBA history, Yao Ming is 11th, Durant is 13th, Beasley is 18th, and Rondo is 19th.
Although except for Ye Si, the other four people are relatively behind the top twenty.
Even if it's further behind, it's still in the top 20 in NBA history!
Although it is only ranked by ESPN, ESPN's ranking is still very convincing, because among these five players, Yez has won the MVP MVP three times in the same year, Rondo, Beasley and Durant have all won the MVP MVP in the same year. Although Yao Ming
There is no MVP or MVP in the same year, but there are 2 MVPs and 1 FMVP.
This is a hard honor to be in the top twenty!
Because of such a solid honor foundation, even if Rondo has been so bad in the past three years, ESPN would not dare to take Rondo out of the top 20 in history.
A player who has won all MVP and fmvp scoring titles in the same year, plus a triple-double leader in the league's regular season and playoffs, and is the core of a triple crown. With such an honor, no matter how bad you are, there is no way you can beat him to the end.
Just like Popovich, no matter how old and demented he is, there is no way to remove him from the top ten greatest coaches in NBA history. There is no way to erase the hard honor of leading the Spurs to win three championships.
Go.
Therefore, this game between the SuperSonics and the Warriors is truly a coach's top personal honor in NBA history.
All players in this game combined have a total of 9 MVPs and 8 FMVPs!
"If you look at individual honors, this game is the pinnacle of NBA history!"
Even Kenny Smith has to admit this.
Perhaps in his mind, the SuperSonics and Cavaliers are the strongest rivalry in NBA history.
But the strongest battle for honor is undoubtedly the Sonics and the Warriors.
After all, the Cavaliers only have one Finals MVP in James.
James' historical status is now only 20th, one place lower than Rondo, who plays as a substitute for the Seattle SuperSonics.
Of course, a peak matchup of personal honors like the SuperSonics and Warriors may never be found again in the history of the NBA. But can these two opponents play a peak game with the same personal honors?
?
Kenny Smith is still very doubtful about this.
Of course, the warm-up has ended at this time, and all the Warriors and Sonics players on the court certainly don't care that commentators from all over the world are introducing the honors they currently carry.
To be honest, apart from Yao Ming, the oldest of the other six players is Rondo, who is only a little over 27 years old.
There was no time to consider its historical status.
For them, the opponent in this game is more important than these honorary positions.
For example, Beasley was looking at Durant the whole time.
For example, at this time, Yao Ming looked at Ye Si with a smile on his face.
Curry, of course, is staring at Leonard.
As for Klay Thompson, he is naturally staring at his "brother" James Harden.
As for Antetokounmpo and Dream Green, they were looking at each other like a bastard.
Well, the place where the two people looked at each other was still in the middle circle.
Although Yao Ming is the starting center of the Golden State Warriors, his jump ball level is...
In order to prevent the team from being hit by counterattacks and fast breaks, and also to save Yao Ming's face, Cole no longer uses Yao Ming to jump the ball.
The current jump ball player representing the Warriors is Dream Green, the shortest jump ball player in the NBA.
I have to say that Cole is still very good at playing.
Of course, although Green is a little short, he is very flexible, and his reaction and bounce speed are also acceptable, so his jump ball performance is not bad, not as bad as imagined.
And in addition, he also likes to use some small movements when jumping the ball, so the power is even more powerful.
This time, facing Antetokounmpo's jump ball, Chasing Dream was like using his 'angry eyes' to make Antetokounmpo 'shy' and 'afraid', thus making Antetokounmpo fall into a 'petrified' state.
Effect.
What makes Chai Meng a little embarrassed is that when faced with his "angry eyes", he, a junior at the University of Washington, does not feel "shy" or "fearful", nor is he "petrified". Instead, he keeps grinning.
The two rows of white teeth full of youthfulness made Chai Meng dizzy.
The plan failed, and Dream Green could only use his own strength to be defeated by Antetokounmpo. The Seattle SuperSonics won the first wave of the game.
The Warriors were not surprised when Chasing Dream's jump ball failed, and the speed of returning to defense was quite astonishing.
As a jump ball, after the jump ball, Dream Green, even like the Seattle SuperSonics' five small tactics, directly stayed in place as a defender and started to defend on the spot.
"The Golden State Warriors and the Seattle SuperSonics have a lot in common!"
"Whether it's this kind of in-situ defense after jumping the ball or the obsession with one-on-one defense of perimeter players, the Golden State Warriors and the Seattle SuperSonics are almost exactly the same!"
As two small teams in the league, the SuperSonics have been plundering for so long this season, and the Warriors have been plundering for so long with their fifth-tier team last season. Now naturally, many people will compare the Sonics and the Warriors.
Similarities and differences.
