Chapter 950 Chickens turn into phoenixes!(1/2)
On October 28, 2009, amid the current noisy public opinion, the Seattle SuperSonics faced back-to-back challenges from the Sacramento Kings at home.
After the Seattle SuperSonics played against the Lakers, the world's eyes on the NBA are now focused on the SuperSonics and Leafs.
Before the start of the season, Yeas said that Rondo would win the scoring title this season.
At the beginning, everyone looked at such things with a lively mentality.
But after the game between the SuperSonics and the Lakers, the mentality of those watching was completely different.
Although most people still don't believe that Rondo can win the scoring title this season, many people are looking forward to when Rondo will step down from the scoring title.
These people are all looking forward to when Yes can support a scoring 'weirdo' like Rondo in the scoring leader's position!
The game between the Seattle SuperSonics and Kings was so popular that even current Kings head coach Paul Westphal found it hard to believe.
He is a former player and former head coach of the Seattle SuperSonics, and a star of the Seattle SuperSonics.
In the pre-game press conference, as the head coach of the Kings, he answered all questions about the Sonics, Yes, and Rondo.
In all his years in the NBA, this is really the first time he has encountered such a battle.
Even if the traffic of Yes and SuperSonics is very, very large, not every game between SuperSonics and Yes is broadcast live across the United States!
But now, after the game between the SuperSonics and the Lakers, the game between the SuperSonics and the Kings that was not broadcast live in the United States was adjusted to be broadcast live in the United States.
even!
Paul Westphal looked at the cameras around KeyArena in surprise.
The shooting practice before the game is all live broadcast!
Paul Westphal followed the camera lens and looked at the player wearing the SuperSonics No. 2 jersey not far away.
Rondo, a magical player, is known as the illegitimate son of Lady Luck and the luckiest basketball player in history.
After scoring 58 points in the last game, many people were curious about Rondo's strength.
In this game, the broadcaster deliberately met the needs of public opinion and started the live broadcast during the shooting practice of the players of the two teams before the game started.
Not only is there a live broadcast, but there is also commentary. Not only is there on-site commentary, but the studio is also equipped with guest experts and celebrities to provide commentary.
For what?
Of course, it is to dissect Rondo’s true strength!
Paul Westphal didn't know what the on-site commentators and the experts hired by the TV station thought of Rondo's true scoring ability.
For a five-time All-Star, three-time First Team player, and one-time championship quasi-Hall of Fame player, Rondo's shooting ability is really hard to complain about.
In this live broadcast of pre-game shooting training for the United States and even the world, Rondo's shooting percentage may not have reached 50% according to his initial estimate.
In the shooting practice before the game, the shooting rate was less than 50%. What is the concept?
O'Neal is not that miserable!
Rondo is a guard, and O'Neal is not only a center, but also the kind of center who is not known for his scoring ability!
In fact, it wasn't just Paul Westphal who was madly complaining after watching Rondo's shooting practice.
In TNT's back studio, both experts and celebrities have reached a consensus.
"Originally, I thought that Rondo's offensive strength might have improved greatly after an offseason. When I came here this time, I came here just to clear up Rondo's strength. In the past few days,
Too many people have told me that all this is due to Yes. I am not denying the greatness of Yes, but I absolutely do not believe that one person's organizational ability can improve a player's offensive ability to such a great extent. Sorry,
Now I apologize for my reckless speculation when I first came here. I underestimated Yes's organizational ability. You all said it right. Yes's organizational ability is unprecedented. Rondo is still the same Rondo, who is that?
I don’t understand why he wants to shoot Rondo on the basketball court.”
"Grant, this is not your fault. In fact, it is not just you. Many people will have such doubts. Is Rondo's strength really different? Did Rondo suddenly become enlightened overnight? In fact, as long as
If you often pay attention to the Sonics news and the results of the Sonics' team practice games, you will know that Rondo has actually never changed. His offensive ability has reached the limit of his potential. He is not a slacker.
On the contrary, he is very diligent. This is his limit, so there will be no breakthrough in his current strength, and there will be no breakthrough in the future. His strength is just like this, so there is no need to doubt Rondo.
How much of the 58 points in a game is Rondo's credit? Now I can tell you, except for the fact that those points were shot by Rondo, Rondo didn't have any credit. If it weren't for Yes, he wouldn't be able to get 58 in his next life.
point."
In the back studio of TNT, Scottie Pippen was chatting, while Grant Hill, who had just apologized, was confused.
He really didn't believe that there was such a magical thing in this world.
The participation of passing in the offense is very important, but it will never have such a big impact. It is really unscientific and untrue for an offensive idiot to increase his offensive efficiency to such an extent just because he passes the ball very well!
Of course, those who are looking for a sense of reality in the NBA, a world of basketball, must have something wrong with their brains.
The NBA has never been a real and scientific place. Miller's moment, McGrady and Yes' 35 seconds and 13 points, Yes's ten consecutive three-pointers, etc...
The NBA has not shattered all logic and reality in this world again and again.
Even Rondo himself has never been a realistic and scientific figure before.
He is such a bad shot, but he can actually turn around and hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer like he did when he faced James in the Finals.
This game between the Seattle SuperSonics and Kings is not very important.
No matter how underestimated the Seattle SuperSonics are, they cannot be challenged by a team like the Kings.
The outcome of this game is neither important nor suspenseful.
However, such a game was temporarily added to the national broadcast.
Why?
The Kings' head coach knows it.
Kings players know that too.
One is that the whole world wants to see Rondo's strength.
Rondo's strength has been clearly demonstrated in the pre-game shooting practice broadcast live around the world.
If you perform well in shooting practice before the game, your actual performance in the game may not be good.
But if you don't perform well in the shooting practice before the game, your real performance in the game will definitely be like that, and it will never be better.
After solving this question about Rondo's strength.
The audience who followed this game set their sights on the next thing they wanted to see.
That is, for a garbage scorer like Rondo, can his scoring miracle really continue?
No joke, with Rondo's ability, if he can continue his scoring miracle with the support of Yes, then this will not just be a story of an ugly duckling turning into a white swan.
No matter how ugly the ugly duckling is, he is still a swan at his core.
Rondo won the scoring title. It wasn't an ugly duckling turning into a swan, it was a chicken turning into a phoenix!
The pheasant may also be a real phoenix, or a domestic chicken, but it really can only be a chicken.
Rondo won the scoring title, which basically means that the types of players have changed.
Don't think that the current NBA stars have said yes enough.
As Rondo's miracle continues, these celebrities will only lick more and more!
After Adelman left, the Kings have been as weak as the Warriors in the past few seasons.
The Kings are preparing for drastic reforms this season, changing their head coach and bringing in Tyreke Evans, a rookie who they believe can lead the team forward.
This is the rhythm of getting ready to start again.
However, for the audience watching this game, no one cares whether the Kings start again, I am afraid that even the Kings fans don't care.
When the game started, everyone was paying attention to Rondo's score.
As a player who scored 58 points in the last game, this game should be focused on the defensive end.
But after the game started, the defense Rondo faced was still quite loose.
"Hahahaha, the Kings lack respect for the current league scoring leader."
Kenny Smith's face turned dark when he heard the teasing from his partner Barkley.
Regarding Rondo's true scoring ability, only a fool would respect him!
Rondo's 58 points in the last game were not a threat to Rondo's scoring ability, but the threat to the Kings was Yes's passing and organizational skills!
Rondo can be organized to score 58 points, which is scary to think about.
The Kings are a young and rebuilding team. If the Lakers can't solve the problem, they certainly can't solve it either.
However, although Kings head coach Paul Westphal told the Kings players before the game started, don't worry about Rondo, don't regard Rondo as a scoring champion, and don't be confused by Rondo.
But as the game progressed, Barkley and many of the spectators at the scene and those in front of the TV felt that they were not so matched.
"Why do I feel that the Kings' players, whether on offense or defense, made some big moves against Rondo?"
Buckley thought he was delusional.
"Kings players did target Rondo privately."
Kenny Smith said seriously.
