After defeating the Heat, the Sonics' schedule was indeed easy. They easily defeated the Cavaliers and the Rockets won 40 consecutive games.

The Cavaliers have serious defensive problems. High center "Big Z" Ilgauskas is always passed by Yang Jian when encountering pick-and-rolls. Big Z, who is 221cm tall, has a fatal weakness in lateral movement. He only played 5 times in 18 minutes.

He committed a foul and was eventually abandoned by the coach.

When the Sonics counterattacked, Payton was able to challenge Cavaliers starting point guard Brevin Knight.

Knight is the No. 16 pick in this year's first round. He is 178cm tall and weighs 78kg. He is poor in confrontation and interference shooting.

Knight can break through with the ball and has a strong sense of passing. In his rookie season, he averaged 9 points, 8.2 assists and 2.5 steals in 31 minutes per game. Unfortunately, because he is a defensive black hole, the coach will always control his playing time.

Kemp was still a blacksmith, scoring 17 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and his shooting percentage was only 45.5%. Kemp didn't even change his mind. The game against the Sonics was like a friendly match, with a playful smile on his face.

It was easier for the SuperSonics to win the game against the Rockets because Olajuwon and Drexler were absent due to injuries. The Rockets had just lost to the Bulls 97-106 and faced the SuperSonics back-to-back. The players obviously lacked energy.

The SuperSonics won 114-80. Yang Jian made 9 of 11 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 23 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 steals.

The Rockets made 15 turnovers in the first half. Starting shooting guard Mario Elie was defended by Yang Jian and only scored 2 points. However, Yang Jian was also defended in garbage time, and both statistics dropped.

On the 20th, the SuperSonics defeated the Lakers 111-95 at home, breaking their 41-game winning streak.

Shaquille O'Neal scored 30 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 5 blocks, losing to the SuperSonics trio by 20.

Yang Jian made 10 of 17 shots, 5 of 10 three-pointers, and 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 29 points, 10 rebounds, 13 assists, and 1 steal, earning another triple-double.

The substitutes competed. Snow made 5 of 9 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 17 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists. His performance was better than that of Kobe, which was very surprising.

Snow is no longer just a towel man, he is an important rotation substitute for the team. He plays three guards together with Yang Jian and Payton. He is a trump card of George Karl and has a strong counterattack.

The 76ers were eager to acquire Snow through a trade and were no longer willing to wait until the summer. However, SuperSonics manager Wally Walker chose to refuse. He wanted Snow to finish the season and help the team build a dynasty, and let him test the free market in the summer.

.

Snow is Yang Jian's die-hard younger brother. The two have a very good relationship and cannot be traded casually. Testing the free market can maximize Snow's interests. He has no shortage of championship rings and can join the team with the highest offer.

It is necessary to choose the 76ers.

The Lakers have exposed many problems. Van Exel's performance is too unstable. When he is in good condition, he shoots 60% from the field. When he is not in good condition, he shoots 30% from the field and dares to shoot many times, which deprives the team.

Eddie Jones was defeated again against Yang Jian, and was restrained miserably. Kobe, on the other hand, was more daring to fight and scored 18 points off the bench, but his shooting percentage was only 42.9%.

All major media sent reporters to Seattle to let the players talk about their feelings after the game. No matter which team wins, there will be big news today.

Coincidentally, the SuperSonics' winning streak was ended by the Lakers last season. In the 41st game, the SuperSonics lost to the Lakers 106-107 away from home.

This time the two teams met again in Game 41, and the SuperSonics defeated the Lakers and set a new historical record.

Yang Jian is in a very good mood. He has obtained 6 attribute points today. The historical record must be a good one.

"The host changed the history of NBA stars, leading the All-Star players (Payton, Barkley, Ben Wallace, Schrempf, Cummings, Mason) to win the longest winning streak in the NBA regular season. The host gained attributes

Point 6.”

These six names prove how terrifying the Sonics' lineup is, plus Yang Jian is seven stars. Although not everyone is at their peak, the chemical reaction when they are put together is amazing.

Yang Jian has all added "Basketball Skills", reaching a total of 84 points, which is almost full. The system's evaluation is still "Excellent", but he will definitely be stronger.

Yang Jian talked about his feelings and said: "I feel amazing. Our team has entered an extraordinary state and always believes that we can win. There are many players who perform well in every game, which makes it difficult for opponents to beat us."

The reporter asked: "You are ranked first in the MVP rankings and will almost certainly win the MVP again. What do you think?"

Yang Jian smiled and said: "That's right. If I don't win the MVP, who will?"

He ranks first in the league in many statistics, his dominance is unmatched, and humility is tantamount to hypocrisy.

The reporter asked: "Why do you think the SuperSonics are so strong? Many people believe that this season's SuperSonics are the strongest team in history."

Yang Jian thought for a while and smiled: "Maybe it's because the place where I live is a geomantic treasure, and my neighbor next to me is Mr. Russell. We both fish there more than others. This is metaphysics, and it is suitable to live there.

Lord of the Rings. So with me here, it will be difficult for the Sonics to lose."

The reporters’ eyes lit up, and the big news they wanted was now available.

One person asked: "Is your future goal to win as many championships as Russell?"

Yang Jian nodded. "I won two championships as soon as I entered the league, and I'm trying to win a third championship this season. With such a dreamy start, who doesn't want to win more championships? My ambitions are not big. I am professional.

After playing 20 seasons in my career, winning 10 championships is considered a victory, but half of the seasons I didn’t win.”

Good guy, you don't have much ambition? The reporters were shocked.

Bill Russell has 11 championships, and Yang Jian deliberately mentioned one less to show respect. In fact, players of this era have firmly surpassed Russell in historical status with 6 championships.

In 1957, when Russell won his first championship ring, there were only 8 teams in the NBA. Even when Russell retired, there were only 14 teams in the NBA at that time. Most of the NBA rankings are

He will not be ranked among the top three in history.

The reporter asked: "You have such a big goal and you have spoken out about it. Aren't you afraid that all the stars in the league will work together to suppress you?"

"Only one of the four major centers has not declined, O'Neal. Among the outside stars, Jordan, Drexler and others are about to retire. Who do I need to be afraid of? What I should be afraid of are the new stars who entered the league at the same time as me. They want to

Winning the championship will definitely be more difficult than for the predecessors." Yang Jian said with a smile.

Yes, this group of people has no future. Unless they start teaming up at the top in advance and have a deep lineup to crush the Sonics, but such people are very rare.

The reporter was even more surprised. Yang Jian is probably the craziest player in NBA history. No one has ever dared to say such a thing. Who knows what will happen in the future? If a stronger player emerges and defeats him, wouldn't he be slapped in the face?

?

However, Yang Jian only dared to say this because he knew the future. He knew what the future No. 2 player in NBA history would look like. He was very much looking forward to competing with this superstar who would support him wherever there was difficulty. He would try his best to prevent the opponent from establishing a nomadic dynasty.

.

The reporter asked: "Do you have any secrets in training? You seem to be improving every year."

"I just rely on talent (cheating). Not only do I have top-notch physical fitness, but I am also talented in dribbling, shooting, passing, etc. My training is no different from others, and I have stopped practicing more for a long time."

Yang Jian has long since abandoned the persona of a training madman and is willing to tell the truth.

The reporter asked: "Which young stars do you think may threaten you?"

"Shaquille O'Neal and Duncan, they are super inside stars. We are not in position, and I can only hope that my teammates can restrain them well. On the outside, I am more optimistic about Kobe. He has skills and body. If he can better integrate into the team

, the more you cooperate with your teammates, the stronger you will become.”

The reporter asked: "Where's Grant Hill?"

"He's in the east, so we don't have much chance to compete." Yang Jian said with a smile.
