With the Bulls and Warriors winning, all the Eastern and Western conference finals matches have been announced.

Compared with the Eastern Conference Finals between the Bulls and Cavaliers, the Western Conference Finals between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Golden State Warriors is certainly a more eye-catching game.

Although before the start of this series, public opinion outside believed that the probability of the Golden State Warriors winning under normal circumstances was 0, but even if there is no possibility of defeating the Seattle SuperSonics, the Golden State Warriors and the previous Nuggets and Mavericks are not.

Same.

After all, the probability of winning is 0, and this is normal.

The Golden State Warriors have the ability to turn this series into an abnormal situation!

The strength of the Nuggets and Mavericks cannot even match the fluctuations of the Seattle SuperSonics.

The Golden State Warriors or the Lakers are different. These two teams have the strength to touch the depths of the bottomless abyss of the Seattle SuperSonics. As long as the Golden State Warriors can make the Seattle SuperSonics' game state and method fluctuate, will it still be possible?

There is a slight chance of turning normal into abnormal.

What is an abnormal condition?

Of course, the Seattle SuperSonics have a personnel shortage!

The opponent is stronger and the game is more intense. If you want to control the game, Seattle SuperSonics players have to pay more. If you pay more in the game, unexpected situations will increase greatly.

This will greatly increase the chance of abnormal situations occurring.

It is indeed a bit shameful for a team like the Golden State Warriors to pin their hopes on winning the series.

But there is no other way. Apart from pinning their hopes on this aspect, the Golden State Warriors really don't know how they should defeat the Seattle SuperSonics.

For Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, preparation for this series with the SuperSonics can be said to be the easiest.

For the series against the Lakers, his game preparation was very difficult.

Often stay up late, even all night long.

Even for the first round match against the Clippers, he was well prepared.

But for the series against the Sonics, his preparation can really be said to be negligible.

In the playoffs, preparing for your opponent is mainly to find the opponent's weaknesses.

But, what are the weaknesses of the Seattle SuperSonics?

There are no weaknesses whatsoever.

This team has no weaknesses whatsoever!

A team with no weaknesses in the true sense.

This is completely different from a team like the Lakers, which has no weaknesses.

The absence of weaknesses between the Lakers and Warriors or Cavaliers is relative. The three teams have both inside and outside, can attack and defend, can break out and shoot, and can play in any game. This is called relative absence of weaknesses.

But the three teams still have some weaknesses that can be exploited by opponents.

Take the Warriors, for example. Curry's defense has always been a weakness that opponents can't exploit and the Warriors can't solve.

Another example is that the Cavaliers' starting players are relatively weak at three-point shooting. Although the team also has excellent three-point shooters, with these three-point shooters, the starting defense will have weaknesses.

Another example is the Lakers. The Lakers' players are overall more complete than the Warriors and Cavaliers, but this team's offense is very unstable. Not only is Kobe Bryant unstable, his condition is better than Jordan's, but his condition is not good, well, well...

There is also Paul George, who is also unstable and in good condition. He is competing with Gay to compete with Gay as the top six forwards in the league. If his condition is not good...

God and ghosts, this is the current situation of the Lakers.

In the game against the Warriors, the most stable players were rookie Magic Johnson and veteran Duncan...

Deron, Kobe, George, and Bynum are all a little bit not so stable.

But the Seattle SuperSonics are different.

The Seattle SuperSonics really didn't give their opponents any room to exploit any weaknesses!

In terms of tactics, the Seattle SuperSonics have a five-small tactical system, but because of Yes, this team's one-star shooting and four-point shooting are also top-notch, and their positional warfare is also top-notch.

As for the players' weaknesses.

Antetokounmpo's shooting is indeed bad, but on the defensive end, you can't let Antetokounmpo go.

His running and cutting are very good, and other Sonics players pass the ball very well.

As long as other SuperSonics shoot well and other teams dare not shrink, Antetokounmpo will have plenty of opportunities for air cuts and dunks.

Another example is Yes playing center. His height is a huge problem, but not many people can grasp this problem.

Yes's mobility is too strong, his jumping is strong, his defense is strong, and his strength is strong. It is very difficult for those big centers who are taller than him to use his height advantage to attack him in the paint.

When pulling out to shoot, Yes can also pull out, and use his own defense and strength to push against the opponent's waist and eyes. The shooting of these big centers is also very uncomfortable.

Antetokounmpo and Yes already appear to be players with weaknesses.

But such a weakness cannot be grasped at all.

Durant, Leonard, and James Harden have no weaknesses in their respective positions and roles that can be exploited.

Of course, the Seattle SuperSonics have no weaknesses that the Warriors can exploit.

But Steve Kerr will never underestimate himself.

The Golden State Warriors are different from other teams. The Golden State Warriors are strong enough to pose a threat to the SuperSonics.

For example, Curry is very good in singles. In one-on-one singles, if the opponent double-teams, Curry can pass the ball very well. Without double-teaming, Curry can pick-and-roll and beat the opponent one-on-one.

It can be said that this move was the key to the Warriors defeating the Lakers.

The Lakers frantically caught the Warriors' Curry on defense, but in the end the Lakers lost.

It's because of the Warriors' pick-and-roll.

Curry and Beasley's pick-and-roll, Curry and Yao Ming's pick-and-roll, Curry and Klay's pick-and-roll.

During the game, Curry will pick and roll with whoever has the best touch.

This move really has no solution for the Lakers.

Especially when the Lakers don't have any players who can clearly see how good Curry is, they have no way to defend.

Double teaming is death, guarding one is still death.

For the Lakers, Curry is a bug!

Being able to feel the touch of his teammates, coupled with the singles ability of Yao Ming and Beasley and Klay's shooting ability, Curry can really do whatever he wants when playing against the Lakers.

It can be said that Curry is really strong now!

It is precisely because of this that although he knows that it is difficult to defeat a team like the Seattle SuperSonics in the series without any weaknesses, Cole still has great expectations for the team to make changes in this series.

.

As long as there are changes, accidents may occur, and opportunities for the Golden State Warriors may appear at any time!

Even if you are completely inferior to your opponent in terms of strength, waiting for victory is not shabby either.

On May 19, 2014, G1 of the Western Conference Finals between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Golden State Warriors started on time at the Yes Memorial Arena.

Curry, Dream Chaser, Klay Thompson and Ray Allen, who followed the Golden State Warriors to the Yes Memorial Arena in Seattle this time, received warm welcome and cheers from Seattle fans just like Bradley Roy and others before them.

"For Seattle fans, this year's playoffs are really a blessing. In every round of the series, they can meet old friends who remind them of their memories. This year's playoffs include too many departments from Seattle, the University of Washington, and Garfield High School.

Players appeared in front of them."

Looking at Curry and others on the court who were thanking the Seattle fans present, Barkley said with a smile.

But unlike Barkley on the side who only thinks about this level, Kenny Smith on the side thinks even more.

The Nuggets, Mavericks, Warriors, every team that the Seattle SuperSonics encounters has a large number of players from Seattle, the University of Washington, or Garfield High School.

Even if the Seattle SuperSonics don't meet these teams in this year's playoffs, but meet the Clippers in the first round, this team will have Ibaka and Nick Young, and if they meet the Grizzlies, they will have Oden.

, it was interesting to meet the Timberwolves in the second round, and the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, who also had Little Magic, etc.

"These are not players from the Seattle team, nor from the University of Washington team, nor from Garfield High School, these are players from the Yes team!"

Kenny Smith's face was very solemn.

When Kenny Smith said this, Barkley was slightly stunned.

"A Yes player?"

It seems like this is really the case.

It is better to call these old friends of Seattle fans or old friends of Coconut fans as players from Seattle team, Washington team or Garfield High School team than to use Yes team.

After all, the Yes team can continue to include the players brought out by Yes in the Chinese team!

Looking at it this way, the influence of Yes players in the NBA is too great, right?

After Kenny Smith introduced the concept of Yes players, Barkley realized how huge the influence of Yes is now in the entire Western Conference, and even the entire NBA.

All eight teams in the Western Conference playoffs have Yes players, and these players are the core players of their respective teams, and most of them are either the current boss or the future boss.

This is quite shocking.

In fact, after Kenny Smith came up with the concept of Yes players, many viewers in front of the TV and NBA players were quite surprised.
