May 2, 2009, Saturday.

Texas, Austin, in recent times, the Texas capital may have ushered in the most lively moment in its history.

Not because it’s home to one of the most prestigious universities in the world, the University of Texas, or because it’s the live music capital of the world.

It's entirely because a group of Seattleites are here and regard this place as their residence.

In the training facility of the University of Texas, SuperSonics players are making final preparations for tonight's game at the AT&T Center.

A small practice match is currently taking place on the training ground.

Although it was a small intra-team practice match, the intensity of the confrontation was very, very intense.

Watching the confrontation between the players on both sides of the court, Nelson, as the head coach, kept frowning.

This small competition is specially prepared for Durant.

The team's five temporary starters did not appear in the game.

The two sides in the match are Sessions, Harden, Durant, Ingles and Gasol on Durant's team, while the Tucker team on the other side is Barea, Wilkins and Quentin.

Richardson, Tucker and Nick Collison.

The two teams are of similar strength, and the competition is quite fierce.

Before the tiebreaker between the Spurs and SuperSonics, Durant once again applied to the team to come back.

Faced with Durant's invitation to fight, this time Nelson really couldn't help but want to agree.

This game against the Spurs is too important.

If you win, you will be an eternal legend in the history of NBA and basketball!

If we lose, then everything is over. Even though public opinion around the world is praising the miracle that the Supersonics will create, that presupposes that the Supersonics has created a miracle.

If the Sonics don't achieve a miracle in the end, then what happens to Popovich and the Spurs now is the future of the Sonics.

Thinking about what Popovich and the Spurs are facing now in terms of public opinion, Nelson feels a little sad.

It really means that no matter how high you stand, you will fall hard.

The front of Bobo is still a bit too floating.

But for such a hot topic, even if the situation remains unchanged and a 3-0 lead is eventually disguised as 3-3, the final result will be the same.

Wasn't that what the Nuggets were like last year?

After the Nuggets were reversed 3-0, they were ridiculed by public opinion until the SuperSonics won the championship and yes won the first championship. It even ended in the Olympics when yes showed its prowess and the Dream Team completely stretched its hips.

This year's Spurs are even more topical than last year's Nuggets. After all, they have added expectations for three consecutive wins and a black eight.

Thinking about his experiences with the SuperSonics in the past two years, Nelson felt that they were really unfriendly to him.

Although he is an old man who likes stimulation, he can't always be stimulated like this!

Although he and his team had such experience last year.

But to be honest, who in this world can say that their experience is useful when facing such a thing?

Now he's nervous and so is his team.

Maybe the only thing I'm not nervous about is...

Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Yes beside him. Old Nelson was very impressed.

Yes, I’m really not nervous at all!

What kind of psychological quality is this?

It is this kind of psychological quality that can lead the team to create such an unparalleled miracle for two consecutive years!

This time Durant asked to come back, and he was ready to agree.

With Durant, at least the team has one more chance of winning in this decisive battle.

But in the end, I was rejected by yes.

Only this time, yes's rejection met with a strong reaction from Durant.

In the end, this resulted in this team training match.

As long as Durant can score 20 points in this small game that only plays half a game and can shoot more than 50% from the field, then Durant can come back.

This condition was not proposed by Yes, but by Durant himself.

Finally yes agreed.

Although this condition is difficult, it is really not difficult. For a scorer of Durant's level, it is easy to score 20 points in the training game with a 50% shooting rate in the first half.

Similarly, although this condition is simple, it is not that simple.

Because the opponent Durant faced was Tucker!

When Durant is not injured or gaining weight and can control his body, he is quite confident in beating Tucker.

When Durant first went to the University of Texas, Durant, who had just graduated from high school, abused Tucker, who was preparing to participate in the draft.

But the Durant now is obviously not the Durant he used to be.

After Durant recently participated in team training, Tucker defended him very well.

I don’t know if Tucker’s defense has improved and it’s not just because he can only use brute force, or if Durant really did what many people said, this serious injury caused him to fall.

Therefore, Durant also wants to use such a practice match to show the world that he is back!

but……

Looking at the reporters from all over the world who were whispering on the sidelines, Old Nelson sighed.

"If I remember correctly, before Durant was injured, beating Tucker was like chopping melons and vegetables, right?"

"Yes, but after Durant came back this time, his efficiency in beating Tucker was horribly low. Do you think this is because Tucker suddenly became enlightened, or did Durant suddenly stretch his hips?"

"Based on Tucker's IQ and basketball quotient, the possibility of sudden enlightenment is very low. This probability is lower than if he suddenly becomes able to make three-pointers. Durant should be useless."

"Yeah, it's a pity that the SuperSonics have also seen Ibaka's problem. Popovich said in the pre-game interview that the Spurs will change their lineup for this game, although Popovich didn't say it.

How to change the formation, but you can guess, yes will be double-teamed, and the importance of Ibaka's position suddenly increases."

"If Durant can really make a strong comeback, it will be a blow to the Spurs. It will be difficult to predict tonight's game, but looking at it now, the Spurs' winning rate is still higher."

"The SuperSonics' loss has basically settled. It can be seen from the fact that the coconut media recently released all the words that can criticize Popovich and the Spurs. These coconut media also know that there is no one who has passed this village.

If this store is not bad now, will it be bad again in the future when Popovich and the Spurs win the championship?"

"It doesn't matter whether the coconut media criticizes Popovich and the Spurs or the coconut media criticizes Yes. We are here to watch the show. The more lively the better. If Yes wins, we follow Yes and the Spurs and Popovich are very popular.

If yes loses, wouldn’t it be great if we follow Popovich and the Spurs and say yes?”

"It's true to say that, but as a fan, it's really a pity to see Durant being trained by yes from an ordinary player to an offensive superstar, and finally being useless in just one year. It's a pity for Durant

It’s a pity that I feel bad for Yes, so much effort has been in vain.”

"Yeah, it's really a pity. Even if yes has the invincible ability to turn decay into magic, rotten wood like Durant and Harden will still need at least one season. Geniuses like Mayo and Yi Jianlian, yes doesn't have that vision, no

There is really no choice."

"I didn't expect you, a black man like you, would feel sorry for me?"

"Haha, coconut black is right, but yes's ability to cultivate teammates and yes's strongest single-core ability, I don't think it can be blacked out. If LeBron can bring Durant, Rondo, Milicic and Mir

Sapp and the others won the championship, and I can say the same."

"I can't tell, you are still a rational coconut."

Before the game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Spurs, the public opinion was very, very strange.

The public opinion outside has already been that the Spurs are going to collapse, and that Popovich will not be able to apologize unless he commits suicide.

But among professionals, the Sonics are generally viewed negatively.

The reason for such a contrasting situation is that the coconut media took advantage of Popovich and the Spurs' illness to kill Popovich and the Spurs.

But Popovich and the Spurs were not intimidated or disrupted, which left the coconut media in a difficult position.

If you are cowardly, you definitely cannot be cowardly.

I can only continue to do it with all my might.

Anyway, the momentum has become so big now, even if Popovich and the Spurs win in the end, the final backlash of public opinion will be on Yes and the Sonics, and has nothing to do with them.

Anyway, the final blame will only appear on Yes and SuperSonics' backs, and they don't have to take the blame. In this case, let's take a harsh blow.

Popovich can be ruthless, why can’t they?!

It's not like all the coconut media don't care about yes being liquidated after tonight's game.

The Chinese reporters at the scene were very worried.

Especially when watching Durant banging against Tucker's defense.

Durant's current state is really bad!

This offensive state is worse than Ibaka!
