The SuperSonics defeated the Clippers 122-101 in an away game and continued their winning streak.
Yang Jian's shooting touch is generally focused on breakthrough points and scoring, with a near-quadruple-double of 23 points, 7 rebounds, 22 assists and 7 steals. Clippers point guard Steve Francis also had a near-quadruple-double, with 21 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists and 8 turnovers.
.
The Clippers cannot have a future by building a team around Francis. They have only one offensive rhythm, and that is fast break.
The Clippers' insiders are all blue-collar players with no shooting range. Tyson Chandler, the No. 3 draft pick who entered the NBA with Yao Ming in 2001, performed terribly.
It is absolutely impossible for the Bulls to trade with the Clippers and exchange Elton Brand for Chandler. The two are not players of the same level at all. As long as Brand is not seriously injured, he can be the star big man in 2010.
Chandler is just a blue collar guy.
In the Clippers, Chandler's defense was mediocre and he didn't have a good teammate to partner with.
When he first entered the league, the scouting report read: "Chandler has superb defense and the ability to block shots. His player template is Kevin Garnett."
As a result, Chandler's defense was mediocre and he couldn't score in double figures on the offensive end. The Clippers had a hard time sending him away. The scouts were talking nonsense. How could someone who couldn't even make a big jump shot be the model for Garnett?
The Sonics' next opponent was the Wizards, which was the last time Michael Jordan faced off against Yang Jian in his career. The game was not broadcast live nationwide, and people thought it was just an ordinary regular season game.
Yang Jian was not polite to Jordan. He scored 15 points and 6 assists in the first quarter, leading the team to a 16-point lead.
In the second quarter, Yang Jian and Kemp played a pick-and-roll, using a one-step pull-up jump shot, and hit 6 three-pointers in a single quarter. The point difference between the two sides widened to 38 points in this quarter, and Jordan was so angry that he yelled and cursed on the sidelines.
May Brown.
Brown, who couldn't defend the pick-and-roll and couldn't grab rebounds, lowered his head and said nothing, as if he was stupid. This kid couldn't play basketball well and didn't dare to contradict Jordan. He was completely useless.
Jordan's own performance was not much better, with a shooting percentage of less than 40% and frequent jump shots.
The final score was 125 to 82, and the SuperSonics won.
The SuperSonics' main defender was not Yang Jian but Bruce Bowen. Yang Jian went to defend Stackhouse. This made Jordan even more embarrassed, as he was facing only an unknown player.
Yang Jian doesn't think there is any special significance in playing against the current Jordan, let alone trying to prove anything by beating Jordan. What does this prove? The first man in the league bullied retired veterans at his peak? There is no sense of inheritance anyway.
.
The Wizards versus the Lakers are the legacy, because the two core skills are exactly the same. Jordan and Kobe went head-to-head in the final game, with Jordan trash-talking and Kobe scoring 55 points.
Jordan is not pitiful when he loses. He has already proven himself and has no shortage of honors.
Kwame Brown is really pitiful. He still cannot be developed in his second season and is still playing as a substitute for blue-collar center Brandon Haywood. He averaged 7 points and 5 rebounds per game and shot 44.5% from the field, becoming the greatest player in history.
The number one parallel importer.
Jordan was very harsh on Brown. Whenever he did something bad, he would be criticized by Jordan. Now he has completely lost confidence and does not dare to shoot at all.
Jordan's existence has increased the commercial value of the Wizards, but he is really a poison in the locker room, making the atmosphere in the locker room like a prison. Jordan, who only has three championships in his career, has a much lower commercial value than in the parallel world.
Next, the SuperSonics ushered in a wave of easy schedule, playing against teams from the Eastern Conference and teams outside the Western Conference playoffs. Yang Jian reduced his shots to ensure his shooting percentage, assisted his teammates in scoring, and also played 4
A triple double.
In the second half of the regular season, Yang Jian will play like this. He not only wants to win the assists title, but also to help his teammates increase their confidence and make them dare to perform more in the playoffs.
The SuperSonics have a weakness this season. There are many new players joining the team, and everyone needs to cooperate more to develop a tacit understanding.
At the end of the month, the SuperSonics defeated the Timberwolves 119-95 in an away game, maintaining their undefeated record in March.
Billups played 29 minutes, making 7 of 12 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 19 points and 9 assists. His performance completely outperformed Timberwolves starting guard Troy Hudson.
This is really a great irony. The Timberwolves have been complaining all day long that no star is willing to join, but Billups, whom they despise, is thriving in the SuperSonics. Joe Smith, their favorite, has been reduced to a substitute in the Pistons.
He was given up after one season.
During the All-Star Weekend, fans thought that the Sonics might lose more than 10 games this season. However, the Sonics had a 23-game winning streak and their winning percentage soared.
Six members of the SuperSonics scored in double figures. This was a microcosm of their post-Star Game performance, with more points blooming in every game.
Kemp's performance was very eye-catching, making the SuperSonics bench lineup even more terrifying. After the All-Star Game, he averaged 10.4 points and 5.2 rebounds per game.
Boozer, Billups, and Jim Jackson also performed well. Among the main rotation substitutes, only Ginobili performed poorly, shooting less than 40%. His playing time was too short and he could never be found.
It feels like it has been replaced.
There is no way around it. Who allowed Ginobili and Yang Jian to overlap? After Payton retires, Ginobili will definitely be reused.
Yang Jian won the Western Conference Player of the Month for the second time and is about to complete the season. He has won Player of the Week more times, but he doesn't regard them as awards, not even a trophy.
On April 1, the SuperSonics defeated the Bulls 121-104 at home.
Yao Ming broke out, making 12 of 16 shots, 10 of 11 free throws, and scored 34 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist, and 3 blocks.
However, Yao Ming was having a hard time on the defensive end. The Sonics' inside line kept pulling out to create breakthroughs and shooting opportunities for teammates on the outside, targeting Yao Ming.
Yang Jian scored 37 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals, and Rashad Lewis also scored 31 points and 6 rebounds.
Brad Miller didn't play in the low post once in the game. He only pulled out to cover shots and cut to eat cakes. He scored 15 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. He didn't score much, but his tactical effect was obvious.
In back-to-back games against the 76ers, the SuperSonics defeated the 76ers 120-79 by 41 points.
Iverson had an amazing performance against a 122 zone defense. He made 4 of 23 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, and 0 of 1 free throws. He scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, and 6 assists.
Even if Yang Jian clocked out and rested, Iverson couldn't score easily. His teammates couldn't open up the space and there were people around the penalty area. He couldn't break through and could only shoot from mid- to long-range and hit the ball like crazy.
After the game, Iverson moved another group of people.
Some netizens said that he was in poor condition due to injuries all over his body. It was a miracle that he could continue to play. As for not passing the ball, it was because his teammates were trash. If he passed the ball, they would definitely not be able to make a shot.
Iverson has been injured in this way over the years, and his shooting percentage has not been higher. His fans firmly believe that the shooting percentages of other players on the 76ers must be lower than Iverson, even if Iverson's shooting percentage is only 17.4%.
The SuperSonics defeated the Clippers, Jazz, Timberwolves, Spurs, Kings and other teams one after another, and their winning streak reached 30 games.
Fans are very curious about why the SuperSonics have suddenly become stronger. This is because Yang Jian is more focused on the court and exerts all his strength on the offensive end. He can drive his teammates to bloom more in every game.
His use of a challenge card was the key, and he took a rare long vacation in the long season. After a big adventure involving life and death, his whole spirit was different.
As the saying goes, "If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later." This is a wise saying. People who have experienced catastrophes of life and death will become more open-minded. Yang Jian's playing style on the court is very flexible and will not deliberately brush certain statistics.
On April 14, the SuperSonics lost to the Mavericks in overtime 116-120 in an away game, ending their winning streak and suffering their eighth defeat.
Yang Jian's shooting touch was not good. Although he scored 35 points, 4 rebounds and 11 assists, his shooting percentage was only 44.6%.
Mavericks core Nowitzki's performance was even more eye-catching, making 17 of 25 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 11 of 13 free throws, and scored 46 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists.
SuperSonics substitute Boozer also scored 18 points and 7 rebounds. The Mavericks won the competition for other positions.
In the final game on the 16th, the SuperSonics defeated the Suns at home 106-70 to end the regular season, with a record of 74 wins and 8 losses.
