When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, the game ended.
The Sonics sit on the strength of the home court, and it is no surprise that they have made a good start to the season.
As for James, he felt the warmth of the NBA.
This just entered the NBA, ushered in a 16-point defeat, it was a head-on blow.
If it weren't for the last garbage time to give the Cavaliers and James a chance to save their respect, at least 20 points or more.
James' performance today was a bit miserable. It can be said that he was tightly controlled by Wang Hao.
In the whole game, James only scored 11 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
If it weren't for the garbage time scoring a few points, the No. [-] pick wouldn't even be able to score in double figures for the first time.
It can only be said that the Sonics' defensive strategy is too rogue.
Of course, to put it another way, the ability to eat a fresh trick may not be effective in the NBA.
Even if it works, the effect will be greatly reduced.
As for Wang Hao, his performance was quite satisfactory.
After all, James is still a high school student. No matter how good his body is, he is actually still a little worse.
What's more, his defense is very average.
In this game, Wang Hao scored 30 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Facing James' defense, it can be said that he can ask for anything.
Of course, this also has something to do with the Cavaliers not double-teaming him.
It's interesting, no matter how badly James was beaten, the Cavaliers just don't use double-team tactics anyway.
I don't know if the head coach of the Cavaliers completely believes in James, or if he wants to make James look ugly!
In terms of the Supersonics, perhaps the new season has just started, and the overall state is also uneven.
For example, Gary Payton and PJ Brown are not in very good condition.
In fact, it is not surprising that the two of them are not young, and they can be regarded as successful and famous now.
In this case, the enthusiasm of both of them has declined.
Of course, it's not that there are too many problems with their careers. In fact, their professionalism is not bad.
After entering the training camp, I began to actively lose weight and regain my form, but it was a bit slow to return to my form as I got older.
On the contrary, it was Michael Reid, whose performance was very surprising.
After Rashard Lewis left, he completely took over the role of Rashard Lewis on the perimeter.
In this game, he scored 20 points and 3 rebounds, including 9 of 4 three-pointers.
In addition, new aid Kirilenko's performance is also good.
14分7篮板2助攻2盖帽2抢断，他完全展示出自己的全面性。
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Kirilenko is too suitable for the Supersonics' tactical play.
In defense, wireless rotation defense, supplementary defense on the flanks, these are what Kirilenko is good at after all.
In offense, Kirilenko's speed and flexibility in the fourth position definitely surpassed most.
His ball control is a bit poor, but he can handle the ball and move the ball very well.
Even, in the view of head coach Paul Westphal, Kirilenko is far more suitable for the Sonics than Lewis.
In addition to the Sonics, the Lakers and Spurs also won.
The Spurs' GDP combination has achieved initial results, and the three fit Popovich's style of play very well.
As for the Lakers, they rely on pure star players to play, and they also win easily.
You know, their opponent is the Mavericks.
Even so, the Lakers won the game abruptly with their offensive firepower.
Among them, Kobe did not appear in the opening game because of the incident that happened during the offseason.
This season, such things are not expected to be uncommon.
Because the Eagle County incident is not over yet and the judicial process is still going on, Kobe needs to be subpoenaed at any time.
This happened even in the middle of the season.
Bryant took a private jet to Eagle County to receive a subpoena, and then took a private jet to the game.
In the Lakers' second game, the Lakers challenged the Suns away.
And when Kobe Bryant appeared, Phoenix's American West Arena erupted into a roar.
All kinds of abuse and accusations were heard, and Kobe was directly labeled a criminal.
In other words, Kobe's heart is strong enough. If it were someone else, he probably wouldn't be able to play well.
And that's Kobe's charm.
Otherwise, Kobe has almost attracted the love of countless fans.
why?
Not because of his unruly and unyielding.
In the first week, the Sonics did not have a strong opponent and directly achieved five consecutive victories in the new season.
And Wang Hao won the player of the week again without any suspense.
And this also swears to the NBA teams that the Sonics are strong, and their goal this season is still the championship.
Counting on the Sonics not being in good shape and thus losing the championship, this kind of dream is unnecessary.
If you want to compete for the championship, you have to rely on your ability to grab it.
Of course, NBA seasons are very long. It is obviously too early to say these words at this time.
In November, the NBA regular season continued in full swing.
In mid-November, the Sonics ushered in their first loss of the season, losing to Mosaic.
This is the first time Yao Ming has won against Wang Hao in the NBA.
No way, Yao Ming played too violently today, taking whatever he wanted in the Sonics' inside line.
Faced with such a super insider, the Sonics are indeed somewhat difficult.
It's just that they weren't unprepared, double-teamed wirelessly, and didn't give singles a chance at all.
But today, Yao Ming's touch is too good.
There is no need for much preparation at all, basically just catch and shoot, not even adjustments are required.
In this case, the supersonic is also very helpless.
In the entire month of November, the Sonics had 11 games, and they achieved a record of 12 wins and 10 loss.
The overall record is 13 wins and 1 loss, temporarily leading the league.
In December, there was some bad news. Gary Payton and PJ Brown were injured again.
They are old injuries, not very serious, need to rest.
It's just that the troubles this caused to the Supersonics are not small, after all, these two are both starters.
In this case, Wang Hao had to assume the role of point guard.
As for the inside, it was replaced by Reggie Evans and Brandon Haywood, increasing height and defensive strength.
Kirilenko was moved to the small forward position.
In this way, the Sonics' lineup becomes very interesting, with an average height of more than 200 centimeters.
However, this lineup is not bulky.
Except for Brandon Heywood, the remaining four people can all run and jump.
A proper striker team, full of athletic ability and impact.
Coupled with Wang Hao's efforts to turn the tide at critical moments many times, the Supersonic's record is not bad.
Throughout December, the Sonics had 12 games, and the Sonics had a record of 15 wins and 11 losses.
It doesn't look too bad.
It's just that the opponents who lost the game were basically the Lakers, the Spurs, and the Nets.
These are the main opponents of the Sonics on the road to the championship.
Especially in the Christmas game, the Sonics were a guest at the Staples Center and lost to the Lakers.
This kind of highly-anticipated game will naturally lead to discussions after the game.
The Sonics have also suffered a lot of doubts, and they even said everything. It seems that they have lost the championship.
Wang Hao is very open-minded, the media, don't they just like to get all the news out.
2003 ends, 2004 arrives.
PJ Brown returned first, which reassured the Sonics a lot, at least the inside line was more guaranteed.
In addition, at the end of January, the voting results for this season's All-Stars were finally released.
Without any surprise, Wang Hao won the vote again.
In addition, Yao Ming is ahead of O'Neal as the All-Star starter this season.
Unlike last season, no one questioned Yao Ming.
This season, Yao Ming averaged 18.3 points, 9 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, which is a super center data.
You know, this season's O'Neal is only 21.5 points and 11.5 rebounds, which is slightly better than Yao Ming.
Of course, the reason is that the Lakers formed a lineup of four kings, and O'Neal had to reduce his shots.
In addition, everyone can see that O'Neal is a bit unable to run now.
In a short period of time, O'Neill is still full of dominance.
But it is no longer possible for O'Neal to play for more than 40 minutes and maintain dominance all the time.
The reason is naturally because of O'Neill's problem.
Not actively training, coupled with the continuous increase in weight, this will happen sooner or later.
In the original time and space, after O'Neal left the Lakers, he could still maintain his peak period for several years.
In fact, this is not the reason for O'Neill, but external factors.
In the Heat, with the suppression of Pat Riley, O'Neal had to keep training all the time.
This also allows O'Neill's peak to continue.
Later, O'Neal came to the Suns again, and this time he was escorted by the Sun's miracle doctor.
Well, let's get away, let's talk about the NBA All-Star Game.
There were actually two Huaxia players in the Western Conference starters, which made countless Huaxia fans very excited.
More importantly, it deserves its name.
Compared with the original time and space, Yao Ming's data is better. It seems that he has also listened to Wang Hao's words.
In the NBA, some opportunities cannot be waited for, and you have to grab them yourself, such as cell phone opportunities.
When the time came to February, the NBA finally announced the All-Star lineup, and the Sonics got two.
Gary Payton has just returned to the team, so it is naturally impossible for him to enter the All-Star, after all, he has not played a few games this year.
It's just that, as a championship team and a top-ranked team in the league, there can't be only one player in the All-Star team.
In the end, Michael Reid and Wang Hao were selected as All-Stars together.
In fact, there is no need to be so surprised. Michael Reid's performance is not bad. This season, he averaged 20.4 points and 4.4 rebounds per game.
You know, this is the All-Star that Rashad Lewis has been thinking about, and he even left the Supersonics for this reason.
So, is Lewis an All-Star?
After coming to the Jazz, Lewis actually struggled a bit at the beginning, and Jerry Sloan hoped that he would play pick-and-roll.
But the problem is, he really isn't suitable for the pick-and-roll.
Later, Jerry Sloan did not insist, but Rashad Lewis is not suitable to be the core of the team.
This season, Rashard Lewis averaged 18.8 points and 6.9 rebounds per game, which is indeed an improvement compared to last season.
Unfortunately, he is not suitable for fighting alone.
On February 2, the day after Valentine's Day, the NBA All-Star Game was officially staged.
As for the All-Star Weekend on Valentine's Day?
Under the leadership of O'Neill, Wang Hao also had a carnival.
As a person who just lost love, he really needs a few gentle girls to soothe his heart.
As for Ambrosio, of course they broke up.
This was also expected a long time ago, mainly because the girl didn't know what to think, and forced her into marriage.
For this situation, he decisively chose to cut.
Models, this circle is a mess, it's okay to talk about love, but it's impossible to get married.
What's more, Wang Hao is not even 24 years old, so it is obviously impossible to walk into the grave at this time.
O'Neill, that bastard, is really shameless. After treating guests to dinner, he even asked him to pass the ball more.
Although O'Neill is very cheeky, Wang Hao did not refuse such a request in the end.
It's not that he cannibalizes people with a short mouth, what's more, he hasn't eaten anything, just used it.
The main reason is that he only won the All-Star MVP last year. It is basically impossible for him to win consecutively.
What's more, there is no Gary Payton passing him this year.
As the starting point guard, if the pass is selective, he can actually control the All-Star MVP winner.
Of course, the premise is that you have to live up to it.
The chance of winning the MVP this year is not great, not to mention, Wang Hao's mind is not on the All-Star Game.
For Wang Hao today, completing the title defense is the key, and everything else can go to the back row.
I have to say that O'Neal really made a lot of friends in the NBA.
In the end, the All-Star MVP contenders on the Western side mainly focused on O'Neal and Kobe.
That's right, the Lakers' civil war.
It's just that, at the last moment, O'Neal got more shots and scored more points.
In the end, with a slight advantage of 4 points, the West team won the game.
And O'Neal, with a game-high 19 shots, scored 24 points and 11 rebounds.
The only 20+10 in the game, he successfully won the MVP.
In addition, the champions of the rest of the All-Star competitions have already belonged.
The first is the Rookie Challenge, the 2003 Golden Generation Challenge for the second graders.
It's a pity that 2002 seems to be a small year for the draft. In fact, there are many famous stars.
Yao Ming, Stoudemire, Ginobili, Boozer, and Nene Hilario.
As for the golden generation in 2003, it is still a bit immature now.
In the end, the second grade won the contest, and Stoudemire also successfully won the Rookie Challenge MVP.
In the three-point contest, although Wang Hao did not participate, but the Supersonics were never absent.
Michael Reed and Quentin Richardson both appeared in the [-]-point contest.
In the end, the supersonic civil war was staged in the final. With a more stable performance, Quentin Richardson successfully won the championship.
There is also a slam dunk contest. The little-known Fred Jones successfully won the slam dunk contest.
However, this year's slam dunk contest is still a bit flat.
It can be said that if no one can stand up to save the slam dunk contest, the slam dunk contest will disappear again.
There is also the skill challenge held for the second time this year, and the young point guard Baron Davis successfully won the championship.
