Chapter 299 Sniper Battle, the Youngest Five X Five in History!

"The SuperSonics didn't double-team?!"

Watching Paul sitting on Yes on TV and the Sonics not double-teaming him, Kobe had a look of surprise on his face, but not surprised.

Many people had planned to beat Yes on their back before, including him.

But whenever this kind of pick-and-roll change occurs, the SuperSonics will be directly flanked.

The Sonics' protection of Yes is incredibly tight.

Even if he was beaten into a sieve because of double-teaming, he would not hesitate.

Kobe understood very well. At that time, protecting Yes was the Sonics' top priority.

At that time, the Sonics didn't dare to say that they were doing it for the playoffs.

At that time, it was impossible for the Sonics to really think about winning and the playoffs.

Winning is not that important.

Yes is the most important thing.

But now, the schedule has reached the second half, and the SuperSonics' ranking is still excellent.

The first priority for the Sonics now is victory!

Yes’s first priority is also winning.

Therefore, even if the Sonics are willing to let other players flank Paul, Yes is absolutely not willing!

Kobe looked at Paul, who was leaning against Yes, with excitement in his eyes!

This is an opportunity!

The opportunity for Yes to be targeted finally appeared!

In the next confrontation, he finally has a chance to take revenge!

Kobe believes that not only him, but many Western teams who are paying attention to this game are waiting for such an opportunity!

The game between the SuperSonics and the Hornets can be regarded as a small focus battle.

The Hornets have not given up hope of entering the playoffs. Only by defeating the Sonics in this game can the Hornets counterattack and enter the playoffs.

This is a game played as two teams.

The Clippers, Hornets, Warriors, Kings, these teams that want to enter the playoffs are all paying attention to this game.

This of course also includes the Lakers and Kobe.

The Lakers are now being chased crazy by the SuperSonics!

The dispute between him and Yes, whether he will be more criticized in the media, and his reputation as the Black Mamba all depend on whether the Lakers' ranking can suppress the Sonics.

The Sonics are moving forward, and so must he and the Lakers.

No matter how uncertain the future of the Lakers is, he will get over it!

Before the game between the SuperSonics and the Hornets, the Lakers, under his leadership, had just defeated the Boston Celtics, the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference, at home.

That's the Boston Celtics, the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference, a team of the Big Three!

The amount of energy it takes to beat such a team is unimaginable.

It is not that easy for a team like this that was beaten by fans with 82 wins at the beginning of the season to lose.

Such a team that doesn't lose easily has lost three games in a row during the Western Conference road trip after the All-Star break!

On February 20th, they were defeated by Nash's Suns in an away game.

On February 21, they were defeated back-to-back by the Kings led by Artest, Kevin Martin, and Mike Bibby.

In addition, they lost to the Lakers led by him today.

The Celtics, who are first in the Eastern Conference and teamed up with the Big Three, clearly feel how hellish the Western Conference is this season.

Before the All-Star break, ESPN said the West was hell.

Now, after the All-Star Game and the NBA enters its sprint phase, the hell in the West has turned into purgatory!

The top three of the Suns, Mavericks and Rockets are as fierce as ever.

The King and his Lakers, or the Clippers, Warriors, and Nuggets were all forced!

Forced by whom?

Of course it was forced by Yes!

Kobe swore that the teams ranked sixth to 12th in the Western Conference are all expecting Yes and the SuperSonics to lose.

Such a weak team should be in the right position.

Why are you taking everyone's place?

After working so hard to enter the playoffs, are you preparing to be swept by the Mavericks, Suns or Rockets?

This is a waste of precious Western Conference playoff spots.

This is a crime!

Yes and the Sonics are about to collapse!

It's time for Yes and the Sonics to give up these precious opportunities.

The Hornets performed very well in this game and played very fiercely.

In order to defeat the Sonics, Paul dared to take Yes alone!

The effect is very average!

Paul's confrontation ability among young guards is very good.

But when he faced Yes, the confrontation was almost completely destroyed!

"Chris Paul dropped the ball again!"

"During the confrontation with Yes, Chris Paul dropped the ball again!"

"Yes's power is so great, Chris Paul needs to be more cautious!"

Watching Yes on the TV picking up the basketball Paul dropped and rushing forward like lightning, listening to the voice of Reggie Miller on the TV cheering for Yes like his lungs were breaking.

Kobe's eyes were shocked.

He is also familiar with Chris Paul.

Paul is now a sophomore and relatively skinny.

Maybe Paul's confrontation is not as good as Yes, but the gap definitely shouldn't be so big!

After the start of the second half, in order to enter the playoffs, to avenge Paul, and to defeat the SuperSonics, the entire Hornets team was targeting Yes.

The image of people united is shocking.

But, the effect is extremely poor!

"Yes, that's great!"

Watching Chris Paul on TV perform like Rondo in front of Paul in front of Yes, Kobe was full of admiration.

Paul's current choice looks like a mantis mantis trying to make a fool of himself.

Before Yes even came to the door, he sent it to him.

However, Kobe understands!

There are now less than 30 games left in the regular season, and the Hornets are 9 games behind the SuperSonics.

Ordinary victory can no longer meet the requirements of the Hornets and other teams pursuing the playoffs.

Any game against the Sonics is a game against Yes.

Only by exposing all the weaknesses of the Sonics and Yes will other teams in the league catch up, and will the Sonics and Yes collapse.

Only then will they have a chance!

What's more, Paul was humiliated by Yes by 58 points in the All-Star Game.

Kobe felt that if it were him, he would make the same choice as Paul!

The Sonics must collapse!

Yes, we can't continue to look so perfect!

As long as the Sonics don't collapse, and as long as Yes remains invulnerable, everyone will always have a big sword on their heads.

This big sword hangs not only on the heads of these teams that want to enter the playoffs, but also on his and the Lakers' heads.

It stands to reason that the SuperSonics are now almost guaranteed a spot in the playoffs. Yes and the SuperSonics should be able to relax appropriately, right?

It is difficult for the SuperSonics to overtake the Lakers and Nuggets. Isn't it a waste to continue to focus on unnecessary pursuits?

With this kind of energy, it would be better to work with the Lakers and Nuggets to be among the top three in the Western Conference.

The Mavericks, Rockets, and Suns, these three teams are very strong. For the Lakers, Nuggets, and SuperSonics, it doesn't matter who they beat.

When these three teams are fighting for first place in the Western Conference and the regular season MVP, it is best for the last three teams to recharge their batteries.

But the SuperSonics have no intention of stopping!

The SuperSonics are still desperately pursuing victory!

In order to win, even Oden doesn't want it!

The Sonics defeated the Grizzlies in the last game. This was the Sonics announcing to the world that they only wanted to win!

This is so uncomfortable!

The Sonics are almost overflowing with wins now, so why do they need so many wins?

To help Yes pursue MVP?

How can it be!

The unspoken rule for MVP is the top four in the conference.

His performance last season was so explosive, and his record and statistics were not bad. In the end, his MVP ranking was only fourth.

Can the SuperSonics finish among the top four in the Western Conference this season?

Mavericks, Rockets, Suns, Jazz, Spurs, which one can the SuperSonics surpass?

No one can surpass it!

The Sonics' best record can only be sixth.

The Lakers were seventh in the Western Conference last season.

He has proven that you cannot win MVP if you are sixth or seventh in the Western Conference!

Since it’s not for MVP, it’s naturally for a while!

Yes has been competing for a while, so he is crazy about pursuing victory, and he must beat me in terms of record!

A rookie, like stepping on him to get into the lineup? !

This is too thoughtful.

If it had been anyone else, Kobe would have laughed.

But this person is Yes, Kobe can't laugh it off.

Yes has the ability to steal his moment!

He likes Yes very much, but he can never let it go for a while!

A seat in the playoffs, a first-team position, and now the Sonics have completely messed up the Western Conference, which is preparing to sprint after the All-Star Game.

Now, almost all teams in the Western Conference are competing because of Yes and the SuperSonics.

The top three teams in the Western Conference all hope that their first-round opponent in the playoffs will be the SuperSonics.

Because the Sonics look the easiest to bully.

Under this year's situation, the rest time gained from playing easily in the first round is very important for the top three in the Western Conference.

The Mavericks, Rockets, and Suns are the three teams that may advance to the second round. No one is sure that they can beat their opponents.

The Spurs and Jazz, who are fourth and fifth in the Western Conference, are still looking at the sea. As long as they can't drop in the rankings, it doesn't matter.

The remaining Western Conference teams are really waiting to snipe the Sonics and Yes!

The Hornets and Paul fired the first shot after the All-Star Game.

Next, other Western Conference teams will target Yes!

Yes must collapse. If Yes does not collapse, the Sonics will not collapse, and they will have no chance!

Chris Paul works hard!

Work hard to lead the team on the road to defeating the SuperSonics!

Work hard on the road of revenge for Yes’ 58-point shame!

Tonight, he is the cold-blooded avenger of Oklahoma!

Tonight is the last chance for him, his city, and his team!

Even if his sacrifice is used to exchange for the collapse of Yes and the Sonics in the future, it is worth it.

Because, the Avengers of Oklahoma are always so stubborn!

Post-up, breakthrough, mid-range shooting...

At the beginning of the second half, Paul used almost everything he knew!

He is using everything he has to test Yes' strength, test Yes' defense, test Yes' speed, test Yes' explosive power, test Yes' agility, test Yes' jumping...

Chris Paul doesn't know how much offense and defense he tested Yes in this game, but he didn't find any openings in either offense or defense!

No weaknesses!

Yes there is no weakness!

Is this all the result of his test? !

Yes is too strong!

Yes is really too strong!

Looking at Paul who was still holding on on the court, Reggie Miller felt distressed.

99 to 108, the Seattle SuperSonics completed a great reversal in the away game.

At the moment the game ended, Reggie Miller was secretly relieved for Paul.

"It's easy to defeat the Sonics, but it's too difficult to find the shortcomings of Yes and defeat Yes!"

But, that's what makes it fun, isn't it? !

This is just the beginning of sniping!

Kobe's eyes were full of anticipation!

But soon, the anticipation in Kobe's eyes turned into shock!

32 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 6 steals and 5 blocks!

5X5? !

The youngest 5x5 in history? !
