At the beginning of the new season, the Seattle Supersonics' record in the first five games was 3 wins and 2 losses, and this record is now ranked eighth in the Western Conference.

"Cherish the current ranking of Seattle Supersonics. Maybe this is the last time the Seattle Supersonics ranked in the top eight in the West this season!"

After the Seattle Supersonics lost to the Boston Celtics at home, the words Barkley said during the commentary became the focus of all media reports.

In five games, facing three weak teams with bad levels, the game was extremely difficult, and facing two powerful teams, they were almost defeated.

Moreover, judging from the content of the Supersonics in these five games, other Seattle Supersonics players really went all out in these five games.

Needless to say, in these five games that started the new season, they scored at least 30 points in each game, and the shooting percentage of each game was above 80%.

This is a very scary efficiency!

Although yes took more than 20 shots except for the first game against the Warriors, the number of shots in the other four games was only about 10. It can be said that such attack numbers are a bit pitiful for yes, but who can do it

Yes indulged in memories of playing with Durant last season?

If he couldn't get out of his memories with Durant, his game style would always be like this.

Even though yes did not do his best in the game, his scoring and scoring efficiency were still the best in the entire league. After five games, yes is now the first player in the league in scoring list, and he is also the first player in the shooting percentage.

The league ranked fifth in rebounding and third in assists!

It can be said that Yes' performance in the first five games of this season is already the strongest performance he has fallen into the memory of playing with Durant.

And what about the others?

Milicic's offensive performance this season is also quite good.

Those who watched the Seattle Supersonics' five games can clearly feel that Milicic prefers defense and rebounding compared to last season, and has made significant progress on the offensive end this season.

Milicic has changed from being defensively in the last season to being balanced in offense and defense this season, and his average data has also become 188. Although the rebounds have decreased, the score has increased, and his rebounds have decreased, which is not that he is not defensive.

, but he changed from closing backcourt rebounds to blocking positions in protecting rebounds.

Seattle Supersonics have two excellent guards with excellent rebounding, and the inside line can better protect the rebound.

So although Milicic has fewer rebounding data, the number of rebounding games in the entire team has increased, and it is still ranked first in the league.

The number of rebounds in Seattle Supersonics this season is not only related to Milicic, but also has a lot to do with Millsap.

Millsap's performance this season also performed better than last season.

Millsap's progress this season is not reflected in the offensive end, but in the confrontation.

Milicic's progress is that his offense is better, and his offensive methods have become better.

And Millsap, his ability to confrontation has become stronger simply.

Millsap's mid-range shooting percentage was declining, but his offensive efficiency at the basket was higher than Milicic.

When defending, his positioning ability is even better than Milicic.

It can be said that Millsap's performance this season has also exceeded that of last season.

In addition, Rondo, who won four triple-double in the first five games of this season, has improved the performance of this season compared to last season.

Especially Rondo, after playing the first triple-double in the NBA history last season, he played five games this season, and his current average of 11.2 points, 11 rebounds, 12.2 assists.

I don’t know whether Rondo can average triple-double in the regular season this season, but so far, Rondo is the only player in the league who still maintains a triple-double in average!

When your team starts five players, there is a scoring champion, a point guard who averages triple-double per game, and two inside players who are very good at offense and defense, these four people seem to have all their strength, but in the end you

Even the weakest team in the league can't win easily.

Then you need to consider the performance of other players.

“Ibaka’s performance in the first five games of this season can exhaust all efforts from the Seattle Supersonics’ four starters this season.”

Ibaka's average shots in the first five games are now ranked first in the league, and he is more likely to shoot than Iverson, the Pistons' leading player. He has made 26 shots per game so far, just the game.

All of them hit 6 times, with a shooting percentage of 23%, not even 25%!

"Using Durant's shots to hit Rondo, after seeing Ibaka, I think the coconut flour in the world will miss Durant last season and Rondo last season."

Ibaka used his performance to drag down the start of the Seattle Supersonics.

After James Harden played the sixth man at the Seattle Supersonics, he also dragged down the Seattle Supersonics' substitute lineup.

James Harden has many bad habits on the offensive end. After all, he is a rookie. His style of play is not simple enough, he sticks the ball, has poor shooting choices, is not efficient, etc., and his defense is also quite bad. However, compared to Ibaka,

James Harden is still not that tricky. After all, he can make four free throws per game in the substitute lineup, which is really a bit surprising.

In short, for the Seattle Supersonics, many people have seen that other players of this team have really put their best efforts, but because of Ibaka and Harden, the current hard power of the entire team

That's it.

Compared to last season, it has really dropped very seriously.

"Unless the Yes can perform more magically than last season, the Seattle Supersonics can only make the playoffs if they give up Ibaka and Harden!"

"Even if it's yes, I don't believe he can keep filling the pits for Ibaka. Yes has a strong scoring ability, but he almost faces double teams this season, and his opponent's fight with Ibaka is almost the same as

Injecting air, one is to shoot air and the other is to pack the packing, which is very unfair to yes."

"What we all know is that we all know Yes' character, and it's impossible for him to give up his teammates. Since his high school years, this is his basketball style as always. Even if he sinks a ship with his teammates, he won't be like some people.

A clever choice to jump ship.”

"Maybe, we can see that shipwreck this season when Yes was in the Garfield Five Tigers."

Now the public opinion around the world is very pessimistic about the situation of Seattle's supersonics.

This is not only the Supersonics itself, but also the change in the Western Conference this season is also an important reason.

The changes in the West this season are very, very huge.

The whole world thinks that the strongest people in the West this season are the Lakers and the Grizzlies.

But after five games, the Spurs and Mavericks ranked first in the West!

Both the Lakers and the Grizzlies were blocked by the Western Conference bottom team last season.

The Clippers, Timberwolves and Trail Blazers, the previous teams in the Western Conference this season, performed very well. In addition, the Mavericks have regained their true nature as a strong team after getting Avraro. This season,

Maybe there is no oligarch team that last season, but the strength of each team is quite close.

If we talk about the West last season, starting from a very early stage, there were only 8 or 9 teams competing for the playoffs.

But this season, there are probably as many as 12 or even 13 teams competing for the playoffs!

There are indeed 12 teams with a winning rate of more than 50%.

Of course, the season has just begun and it is still early, but this is definitely not an accident like the sudden rise of the Spurs and the Mavericks, and it is not a matter of returning to normal levels over time.

Because the Spurs and the Mavericks are indeed changing this season.

The Spurs used to be a team that focuses on defense, and Popovich is also a team that pays full attention to defense.

But this season, the Spurs changed their previous defensive style and actually played offense and running.

Moreover, the Spurs' offense is different from running and bombing, and the Spurs' running and bombing pays great attention to the speed of passing and transfer balls, and it doesn't look awkward at all.

The Spurs are focusing on offense this season, and their defense has not yet fallen, which is terrifying!

As for the Mavericks...

The biggest change in the Mavericks this season is that they got UCLa's defender Avraro. This All-Star, who was considered first-class in the draft, has no shortcomings but has no top qualities, is his top player. With this shortcut

In the short five games, he proved to the world that he is an All-Star player!

And it is an All-Star player who has reached the All-Star level in all aspects!

All-star players like Afflaro and Durant are different.

Durant's offense may be a superstar, but defense... that's hard to describe.

And what about Avraro?

Offense is all-star, defense is all-star, physical talent is all-star, and organizational ability is all-star level!

This is a player who has not wasted any of his talents and has developed all his potential to the extreme!

"Youth is to keep running and keep chasing one's own limits!"

The verbalism that Avraro and Westbrook, the master and apprentice who always wear strange costumes, said during the interview has now become a hot topic for the entire NBA.

"If your talent is not as good as yes and your efforts are not as good as yes, you are not qualified to chase him!"

In the past, Avraro liked to keep saying that he was a competitor of Yes, and others were disdainful.

How could his potential be a competitor to yes!

But now...

Such a player, you say that his future highest is All-Star, seems to be no problem.

But, is such a player really just an All-Star player?

Because there is no shortcoming, you can exert your All-Star strength when facing any player. Such players are sometimes more dangerous than many so-called superstars in the league!

It can be said that the most outstanding of the six rookies this year are Rose of the Bulls, Beasley of the Warriors, and Avraro of the Mavericks.

In the West this season, due to the sudden rise of the Mavericks and Spurs, coupled with the five teams of Lakers, Grizzlies, Nuggets, Rockets and Suns, they are as strong as ever. Even if these seven teams are in full swing, the Seattle Supersonics are in full swing
