Chapter 146 His Era
"All-Star vote champion, MVP of the Rookie Challenge, MVP of the All-Star Game...has anyone done it before?"
"It seems that it has never been done before. It seems that monsters like Chamberlain have never done it. Ye Hao has set records again and again! This guy is too scary!"
"Yeah, evildoer, absolutely evildoer! Appraisal completed! I've never seen anyone beat like this!"
"It's already so scary now, what his future will be like, I really can't imagine."
"I feel a little shivers about Jordan sitting on the No.1 throne in league history."
"Can you not tremble? Such a menacing honor harvester!"
……
After the All-Star Weekend, Ye Hao is the hottest and most topical star in the league.
Amid the fans' great attention to him, he led the team a little low-key, raising the winning percentage to 50%.
He completely subdued the new aid Varejao with various high-profile performances on the court, and made Varejao believe that Ye Hao is indeed a court leader who can match James, and may even win.
Varejao, who let go of his prejudices, completely adjusted his identity to serve as Ye Hao's guard with a sword. It is not difficult to change from the past guard with a sword to Emperor Zhan.
It's something I'm used to, and it's proficient and familiar to stand guard in another place.
So Varejao began to integrate into the team, providing the team with a rare inside vitality.
And the locker room, which was originally a little discordant, became much more harmonious because of Delonte West's sending away and the influence of Ye Haoqiu's demonic energy.
Of course, the fundamental reason for all of this lies in Ye Hao's rocket-like burst into the sky, which is too dazzling to be ignored.
At the beginning of the season, Durant joked in an interview that he was chosen to assist Ye Hao.
No one sees this as a joke anymore, but as a fact.
However, when the Supersonic team's record is improving and it is slowly becoming hopeful that they will be able to catch the last train of the playoffs, there is a not-so-good news.
Or it is news that is not very friendly to local fans in Seattle.
Howard Schultz, the owner of the Supersonics, intends to sell the team because the Seattle government is not willing to spend money to renovate the arena.
Among the few negotiators who may accept the team, Clay Bennett from Oklahoma State is the most sincere,
Especially when seeing Ye Hao's continuous hot performance and his potential to become one of the best superstars in the league, Clay Bennett even increased the price during the negotiation, hoping to win the team.
But it is also the option of Clay Bennett that Seattle fans dislike the most.
Because once Clay Bennett successfully buys the Sonics, the Sonics may move away from Seattle and move to Oklahoma, which is something local fans don't want to see.
These fans hope that even if the team changes hands, the successor can be a rich local in Seattle, who can keep the team in place instead of moving away.
So some fans launched a petition online,
Call on Schultz not to sell the Sonics,
Appeal to local powerful rich people in Seattle to take over the team,
Call on Ye Hao and Durant to stand up and take the lead in resisting leaving Seattle.
However, these commercial matters are beyond Ye Hao's control.
His existence only increased Schultz's weight in the negotiation and helped Schultz get a higher offer in the sale.
All he can do is continue to lead the team to more victories.
In February, the hustle and bustle of the All-Star weekend passed quickly, and the game entered March.
Most of the hustle and bustle in March belonged to the NCAA, and those freshman and sophomore basketball geniuses were fighting for honor for the school.
Harden, Curry, Derrick Rose, OJ Mayo, Michael Beasley and other talented basketball teenagers have made their debut one after another. After March, they will soon enter the NBA league to meet the fans up.
By mid-March, the Sonics finally squeezed into the top eight in the Western Conference and stood on the playoff train.
It's just that the position is still stable, and they may be kicked off by fellow passengers on the train at any time, or jumped up by the guy chasing after the train to pick them off.
However, the eighth place in the Western Conference was only after they chased for most of the season, and it was hard work to catch up.
At this moment, he finally caught up and squeezed into the position at the door of the car.
It's also rewarding.
On the night when the Sonics became the eighth in the Western Conference, the Sonics finally officially changed ownership. The trade negotiations were concluded, but the fans' voices were invalid. Schultz still sold the team to the highest bidder from Oklahoma Clay Bennett.
In the face of the power of capital, the voice of the fans seems a little weak.
Emotions are cheap, what is valuable is real money.
Even the team is difficult to achieve one city, one team, let alone stars?
One city, one person can only be achieved when there is always value.
The Supersonic team moved to Oklahoma and became the Thunder team. This is the script of the past life story that Ye Hao has known for a long time.
The inertia of history is still pushing the Sonics forward along the trajectory of the previous life.
It’s just that in the previous life, Clay Bennett bought the Sonics at a lower price, only costing 3.5 million US dollars. Now because of Ye Hao’s existence, he paid an extra 1 million US dollars this time. The team was bought for $4.5 million.
This price seems to be a high price now, but compared with the team's sales price of 10 billion or 20 billion ten years later, it is very cheap.
After buying the Sonics, the new owner of the team, Clay Bennett, first invited the players to a big meal.
I also talked to Ye Hao and Durant privately about my ideals for building a team in the future.
The general idea is that the team will take them as the cornerstone of the team, continue to build the team, and make the team a strong NBA team.
Then appease them and let them not have any negative emotions because of the transaction. They are very important, and they are the most important reason why they bought the Sonics.
Although I don't know how sincere Clay Bennett said, but the nice words are still comfortable to listen to.
Durant said shyly and somewhat loyally: "I am willing to continue to play for the team."
Ye Hao said lightly: "I want to win the championship, I hope the team can find me a suitable helper."
It can be seen from this that the two people have different mentalities.
Ye Hao jumped out from a rookie who had just entered the league. He had an attitude of being the boss of the team. He had already begun to subconsciously try to increase his voice in the team, so that he could rise to the level where he could compete with the team. The status of the boss is equal to the dialogue.
After reassuring the team, Clay Bennett announced that the team will stay in Seattle and will not relocate. I hope the fans can rest assured.
This statement really made the worried Seattle fans relax a lot.
Only Ye Hao, who knew the final answer, knew that this statement was bullshit.
A businessman's statement can be reversed at any time under the stimulation of interests.
For example, the guy who often throws blame can be said to be your blame today, but tomorrow he can put on a smiling face and say oops, I made a mistake.
Hehe, it's really worth a middle finger.
………………
………………
After playing a wave of away games, the Sonics returned home to face the challenge of the Warriors.
This will be a collision between the current No. 9 and No. [-] in the West.
The winning percentages of the two teams are the same, and the Sonics are only ahead of the Warriors because of their advantages in the division and previous matches.
Therefore, the outcome of this game may directly affect the final ranking between the two teams.
After all, the end of the regular season in mid-April is not far away.
Therefore, for this game, both sides attach great importance to it and will give it their all.
Last season, the Warriors ranked No.8 in the West and entered the playoffs.
This is a team that has achieved the miracle of black eight.
Of course, in recent years and seasons, that's probably all they can talk about.
If they are really happy, they still have to wait for the elementary school students and Buddha to officially settle in, and then spend a few seasons of honing before they can become the powerful team that makes other teams in the league feel trembling.
The warriors in this meeting are the warriors led by bearded Baron Davis, martial arts saint Stephen Jackson and Monta Ellis.
To put it bluntly, Ellis may still be the boss of elementary school student Curry in the future.
Of course, this is the script of Ye Hao's previous life, but now, whether it will be staged as scheduled is still unknown.
Such a Warriors team has a tough style of play. After all, with Davis and Jackson, they are capable of fighting.
They soared and were able to compete with the top team in the regular season.
But they are also a bit demon, and sometimes they will be overthrown by weak teams.
It can't be regarded as a strong team that can win consistently.
Their head coach is Don Nelson, who has always been known as a "scientist" among coaches. He is good at various attempts and innovative styles of play.
Small ball whirlwind, fast play, etc., are all in the hands of Nelson.
It's pretty good enough.
This effect is a bit like the Nine Yin Scriptures that have been practiced wrongly. When confronted with the traditional Nine Yang Scriptures, it is often difficult to get the benefits.
It is possible to win by surprise for a while, but it is difficult to win by surprise for a long time.
After all, it has been amazing for a long time, and it is easy to be seen through and find a way to crack it.
Ye Hao continued to be popular in the league, and a major impact on the team was that the TV station adjusted its live broadcast plan for the Sonics and increased the number of live broadcasts.
The Sonics' game against the Warriors at home is also an adjusted live event.
The commentators are still Barkley and Kenny Smith.
Fans are familiar faces.
Now fans know that Barkley has become a complete leaf blow.
Every game with Ye Hao, as long as he opened his mouth to predict the result of the game, he was almost optimistic about Ye Hao's team.
Even though there is a disparity in strength on paper, he will still say that Ye Hao is a guy who is good at creating miracles, so it is hard to say that he will not lead the team to victory.
Before the start of the game, Kenny Smith said: "Golden State Warriors, this is a team that achieved the miracle of black eight last season, but they are really struggling this season, and they are still making progress. The playoffs are going hard."
Barkley then said: "Don't say that they didn't struggle last season, can they enter the playoffs at No.8 without struggling?
Although they have achieved the miracle of black eight, they cannot be regarded as a strong team just because of this.
They are not stable enough, and the game is erratic.
So this is the fundamental reason why I am optimistic about the Sonics today.
After the All-Star break, the Sonics basically won all the games they could win, and their winning percentage has steadily increased.
If the performance of the entire season is drawn as a line, then they are an upward curve.
The existence of Ye Hao is the fundamental reason why they can do this.
Now, I am afraid no one will have any objections to Ye Hao becoming the best rookie of the season.
No one can compete with him.
Durant has completely become his right arm and right arm, posing no threat to him.
In the east, in front of Ye Hao, there was no one who could fight.
Some people may still be thinking, if Oden is healthy, if Oden can play games, will it pose a threat to Ye Hao's position?
Let me tell you, it's impossible. Ye Hao, who has played such a performance, can already be said to be one of the best rookie performances in history.
I can't think of any reason to ask him for more.
I hope to see a healthy Oden return to the game next season.
Then everyone will know what I said is right.
At that time, if Oden can play the performance of Shaquille O'Neal when he landed in the league, I may think that he has the ability to threaten Ye Hao's status.
But let's wait until he typed it out.
There are always far fewer geniuses who have not been able to convert their potential into real strength than those who have truly converted their strength. "
Kenny Smith smiled and said: "You are right. There are many basketball geniuses, but very few who can become superstars.
In fact, there are so many basketball players in the world who can play in the NBA, which one is not a real genius?
And the few people who stand at the top of the NBA are the real geniuses among geniuses. "
By the time they finished speaking, players from both sides had already started to appear on the field.
When Ye Hao came out, the home fans shouted his name frantically.
There are also some fans who vaguely feel that the team may move out of Seattle, shouting frantically, "Ye Hao, please stay, stay in Seattle!"
There are also many promotional banners such as the team stays, Ye Hao stays and so on.
After Ye Hao came out, he turned around and waved to the fans at the scene.
Fans responded to his tsunami-like cheers, "Ye Hao! Ye Hao! Ye Hao..."
His name echoed throughout the arena.
Although he often sees this kind of situation now, Ye Hao still thinks it is pretty cool in his heart.
At this moment, he seemed to be standing at the very center of the world.
A ray of light hit him.
He is the brightest protagonist in the center of the stage.
His hour, his age, is beginning.
