So far in the season, the situation has become very clear.
The first tier, the Bulls with 52 wins and 7 losses, was the fastest in NBA history to win 50 games and had the highest winning percentage in the same number of games, surpassing the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1971-1972 season. It is worth mentioning that Baylor beat the Lakers that year. In the team's first 9 games, they had 4 wins and 5 losses.
After 9 games, Baylor retired. Starting from the first game of Baylor's retirement, the Lakers won all the next 33 games, and finally got a record of 69 wins and 13 losses, and the Lakers finally defeated them 4-1 in the Finals. The Knicks win the championship.
For that season, the biggest regret of many fans was why Baylor didn¡¯t retire earlier
The second tier includes the Lakers with 47 wins and 12 losses, the Magic and SuperSonics with 47 wins and 13 losses, and the Spurs with 45 wins and 14 losses.
The third tier includes the Jazz with 40 wins and 20 losses, the Pacers with 37 wins and 23 losses, the Rockets with 34 wins and 26 losses, and the Knicks with 35 wins and 24 losses.
Of these 9 teams, except for the Lakers, the other 8 teams are considered championship candidates.
In the description of the media and the perception of the fans, the Lakers are similar to the Eagles and Bucks who will win the first place in the Eastern Conference in the regular season in the future Even Lakers fans just roar "Lakers Championship" in a lively manner.
Of course, this cannot conceal Zhang Hao¡¯s performance as the top rookie in modern basketball, averaging 26.7 points per game.
In addition to the five teams in the West and the four teams in the East, there are also teams competing for the playoffs, the Trail Blazers, Suns, Kings, and the Warriors, whose star power has been demonstrated after some conflicts were resolved through robbery-style transactions. 4 teams compete for the other 3 playoff spots in the Western Conference.
The Eastern Conference is a little more complicated. Six teams including the Cavaliers, Pistons, Hawks, Heat, Hornets, and Bullets are competing for four playoff spots.
? 47 wins and 12 losses, 47 wins and 13 losses, and 45 wins and 14 losses. These are the top three records in the Western Conference, belonging to the Lakers, SuperSonics, and Spurs respectively.
With the results so close, the ranking competition is naturally extremely fierce. Coincidentally, the three teams will play against each other twice in the competition from March to April.
Of these six games, two were originally broadcast live in the United States, but now all six games are broadcast live in the United States.
By this time, there are still 6 weeks left before the end of the regular season, and predictions for major awards have become lively.
The mvp predictions are very unified. Regarding this aspect, the hottest topic at the moment is - can Jordan, who has not won the best of the month in 4 months, win the best of the month in the last two months?
There was no suspense about the Rookie of the Month award early on. After Zhang Hao won the Player of the Month award, there was no suspense at all.
The predictions for the best defensive player are very interesting. Payton is first, Jordan is second, Pippen is third, Mutombo is fourth, Rodman is fifth, David Robinson is sixth, Olaju Wang is seventh, O'Neal is eighth, Mourning is ninth, and Kemp is tenth. The Bulls team has three players ranked in the top five in the prediction of the best defensive player!
¡¡
On March 7, the Lakers came to Seattle.
There are three consecutive days of rest in away games, and the next game is played on the 10th. Such a schedule is indeed quite strange.
But the Lakers did not return to Los Angeles, but came directly to Seattle.
The biggest favorite for Rookie of the Year, after arriving in Seattle, he made a date with a girl and walked around in a business district in Seattle with her in his arms.
"Lelin, the climate here is very good! The greening is also great"
"Of course, Seattle is the best city in the world! Come here, brother, there is delicious food!"
"Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat. What will you do if you become a fat man in the future?"
Having said that, Zhang Hao carried little Loli to the dessert shop he pointed to and put her down.
The expression on the little Lolita's face when she eats delicious food is a joy. Just by looking at it, Zhang Hao can guess how delicious that snack is.
While enjoying the food, the little Loli suddenly asked: "Brother, doesn't he like fat girls?"
"Why are you asking this?"
"If you are curious, please tell Le Lin what kind of girls my brother likes? For example, the figure."
"Uh" Zhang Hao originally wanted to be perfunctory, but when he thought about the fact that these girls in the United States were so good-looking when they were teenagers and how fat they were in their 20s, he immediately said: "Yes, I like thin ones."
Think about Britney in the future, and then look at the little Lolita in front of you On Britney's side, Zhang Hao knows that Britney will be fat in the future, and has seen how fat she looks, which is disappointing, but the little Lolita can't Gain weight!
Hearing this answer, the little Loli suddenly felt that the Baumkuchen on the dinner plate no longer smelled
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: ? and I had a lot of fun playing with my little girl all afternoon, and I didn¡¯t finish eating something.?We returned to California together, came to Oakland in the Bay Area, rested for one night, and on March 12th, we challenged the Warriors away from home.
After the Warriors voluntarily gave up most of their talent, they played better than before when their talent overflowed.
A lot of conflicts have been reduced. The rotation of BJ Armstrong, Sprewell, Jerome Kersey, Chris Mullin, Bimbo Coles, and Joan Barry has been determined on the outside, and Joe has been determined on the inside. -Luo Huan of Smith, Kevin Willis, Ronny Celica, and Clifford Rozier is indeed playing better.
But that¡¯s it, no matter how well they play, they are still on the edge of the Western Conference playoffs.
???With the loss of Tim Hardaway, the Warriors basically lost the opportunity to become a top teamAny team that loses a point guard with some strength will plummet in strength.
Facing the Lakers who want to bite after losing, the Warriors are a bit miserable
Sprewell scored 28 points, Joe Smith scored 17 points, Coles scored 15 points, and Armstrong scored 13 points. Four people scored in double figures, which is very good. The Warriors scored 106 points.
But the Lakers soared by 124 points!
Zhang Hao and Campbell took advantage of each other's weakness inside. Zhang Hao scored 26 points and Campbell scored 20 points. On the outside, Van Exel scored 35 points. The three of them scored 81 points together, leading the Lakers to 124. Than 106 slaughtered the Warriors!
When the Lakers played the Warriors, except for Zhang Hao who abused Joe Smith again, not many people paid attention. Even when Joe Smith, the No. 1 draft pick, was abused, not many people paid attention. Garnett also abused Joe Smith not long ago. Smith, Antonio McDyess went berserk every time he met Joe Smith
But Joe Smith is not considered a parallel import. His performance of 15.5 points and 9 rebounds per game is not bad.
Since then, Joe Smith has gradually become the "invisible" No. 1 pick. He will not be called inferior, and he will not be mentioned much when the best rookie is mentioned.
With regard to the Lakers, the media still focuses on the Lakers vs. SuperSonics.
The two teams played against each other two days ago, and the Lakers lost to the SuperSonics by 7 points. After their four consecutive away games, the Lakers' first game back in Los Angeles was to face the challenge of the SuperSonics!
¡¡
On March 13, when the Lakers returned to Los Angeles, the SuperSonics also came.
Back in Los Angeles, the Lakers came to the Great Western Forum Arena to prepare for tomorrow's game. The SuperSonics did not play in the past two days. After playing the Lakers, they rested for three days in a row. After arriving in Los Angeles, they immediately entered a state of preparation. .
After training ended that afternoon, Payton was going to walk around the town of Inglewood alone.
When he just left the arena, he saw a picture that distorted his face
A convertible Ferrari F50 drove out of the Lakers parking lot The person sitting on it was the opponent's super rookie!
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
